Beatlefest anti-gun tirade Monday, April 3, 2023
We
went to Beatlefest (renamed Festival for Beatles fans due to legal issues) on Saturday
night and got our dose of "kumbaya,”
especially when the professional musicians ended the night with a ludicrous rendition
of “Hey Jude,” a song I love, but found too saccharine after being subjected to
left wing anti-gun morality by a fanatic lady representing the extremist John
Hopkins anti-gun violence project.
The sentiment to do away with guns as a cure
all is noble but delusional, and it is sad that the whacko had to hold hostage
the concert in order to grub for money to fund the project.
Worse still, she ranted on about GOP people who
defended the Second Amendment and mischaracterized who actually is using so
called assault weapons to murder kids, by calling them white supremacists when
in fact that last four mass shootings were done by anti-Christian mentally ill
transgender radicals, and even the most famous Pulse club where gays were
killed was done by a Muslim radical in an anti-gay tirade, not right wing
extremists.
Most killings in the country are happening in
the ghetto, where blacks kill other blacks, partly because liberal prosecutors
refuse to keep criminals behind bars.
But Beatlefest is all about former hippies
trying to recapture their past, a delusion even back in the heyday, when the
Black Power movement and the Weather Underground promoted insurrection, blowing
up banks and people in a misguided program to force America to become a Marxist
state, radicals who later became teachers, and have helped shape the misguided
youth of today in the new but equally misguided WOKE movement.
The roots of Beatlefest anti-gun philosophy goes
back to the shooting death of John Lennon, and his best friend and fellow
junkie, Harry Neilson raising a red flag about guns – this year’s lecture coming
after society decided to let Lennon’s killer out of jail – more woke sympathy
for the devil.
Although there were a number of sympathetic nostalgic
former hippies in the crowd who are as hooked on woke as they were the movement
back when we were young, most of the crowd had come for music, not lectures, and
many of us knew that society has taken a wrong turn in blaming guns instead of
the criminals in whose hands the guns are held, and that removing legal guns
from the market place isn’t going to stop John Lennon from being shot, or
anyone, since most of the guns who kill people are illegal.
The whacko on stage went on to talk about how we
need background checks and other things to help keep people safe, all things
that are already in place. What she wants is to remove guns from the hands of
responsible people so that the only guns killing kids are in the hands of crazy
people society refuses treat or criminals’ society refuses to keep in jail.
The uncomfortable Beatlefest moment passed, and
the show went on, freeing the audience any more painful woke rhetoric.
Beatlefest is supposed to be about the Beatles,
not some whacko Woke person’s tirade, and her ranting was soon forgotten.
