Michelle Malkin: We Need Fallacy Control Now!
Michelle Malkin October 3, 2017
Previous Jimmy Kimmel Crying Jags on VDARE.com: Cecil The Lion, Socialist Medicine
Enough is enough. It’s epidemic. It’s dangerous. And the time has come to demand its end.
In the aftermath of the horrific massacre in Las Vegas, America needs fallacy control. Yes, we must declare war on fallaciousness. Now more than ever, the nation is suffering from an outbreak of illogical thinking. In response to senseless violence, clearheaded citizens deserve a safe space from the 24/7 barrage of rhetorical nonsense. Let’s break down the collective cognitive breakdown.
Argumentum ad celebritum.
Empty talking points don’t become persuasive arguments when uttered by Hollywood stars. But in the bizarre land of the celebrity cult, late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel has been suddenly anointed “America’s conscience” and “voice of reason.”
Kimmel railed “intensely” on TV Monday night against politicians doing “nothing” to stop mass gun violence. Sobbing and emotional, he insisted, “there’s a lot of things we can do about it.” Yet, Kimmel acknowledged that Mandalay Bay gunman Stephen Paddock had passed multiple, mandated background checks and had no criminal history. Moreover, Paddock bought his guns legally from Nevada and Utah gun shops subject to a thicket of local, state and federal rules—and reportedly carried 23 of his weapons into a casino/hotel that already operates as a gun-free zone.
