Two French Rock Concerts Cancel Eagles of Death Metal Appearances Due to Frontman Jesse Hughes Saying Some Muslims are TerroristsWell that's not exactly what they're banning them for but it's close enough. They seem bothered by this interview in Taki magazine as well as by an appearance on the Fox Business Channel show "Kennedy." One thing that they're bizarrely saying he's being banned for is his "conspiracy theory" that the Bataclan security guards were in cahoots with the terrorists. How is that bannable? He says that Abdelsam was there earlier in the day, before the show, and stared him down. He also says that only one guard was present -- an Arab -- and the rest of the security guards stayed home. He may be right; he may be wrong. But how is this something people now get Social Justice Warriored over? Here are some of the Officially Forbidden things Jesse Hughes said about his own experience as a victim of terrorism: Jesse Hughes: I saw fear fall like a blanket on the whole crowd and they fell like wheat in the wind—the way you would before a god. I was totally alert from the very beginning. The first thing I needed to do was find my girl. Fear took a backseat and "Where's my girl?" took over. I could smell gunpowder in the backstage area and I knew someone fired a round back there. I saw a guy with an FAL and when he turned to face me his eyes looked like marbles. He was stoned out of his mind, and we now know they were on Xanax and cocaine. I recognized him. I'd seen him earlier in the day and noticed him staring at us. You can read the rest at the link. This is too much for French concert promoters, who have banned the Eagles of Death Metal for "conspiracy theorizing" and "racism." In a brief communique, the Parisian [music] festival as well as the Cabaret Vert and Rock en Seine decided jointly to cancel the shows of the American group. Due to the recent political statements made by the leader of the group, Jesse Hughes. That's from LeFig, Paris' center-right newspaper. You can see how Social Justice Warrioring and political correctness has rotted it out. I think he's almost certainly wrong about the guards being in cahoots with the terrorists. That's because, when it comes to terrorism, the French really don't screw around. If there was a there there, it would be investigated. They wouldn't cover this up. At least, I don't have the sense that that country is so paralyzed by political correctness they'd let terrorists go rather than admit they had a couple of more terrorists than they knew about. But how the hell did it come to the point that being wrong in one's witness testimony was some kind of banable offense? And how did it happen that now even center-right outlets are reliably Social Justice Warrior, almost salivating over the though that this ugly crew of Conspiracy Theorizing Racists has been banned from pursuing their livelihood? | Recent Comments
