The first thing I thought when I heard the names of Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, was “They sound like new parents.” Sure enough, the couple had a baby six months ago and had the tenacity to drop it off at Grandma’s before the shooting. America is the only country in the developed world with zero days’ paternity leave. In Iceland, fathers get 120 days off with 80% of their original wages. They don’t have shootings in Iceland
.
Politicians nailed this long before we did and the only way we could have prevented this shooting and others like it would be to give them more authority. The government could provide more paternity leave, less workplace violence, more inclusion, less disenfranchisement, more diversity, and less gun violence. That’s what’s behind most of the attacks here in America and around the world.
I feel like I’m forgetting one other thing linking all these tragedies. Oh, yeah! Sorry. There’s one more force that’s diametrically opposed to our way of life and has set out to erase us entirely from the planet and that’s climate change.

Well, of course, if you don't get paternity leave, you absolutely should become a mass murderer.
You know you're in for a tepid leftist snow job when these terms are spoken: "less workplace violence, more inclusion, less disenfranchisement, more diversity, and less gun violence."
Hey man, you forget to use the words "sustainability, fair trade, micro aggression, safe place and uh, like climate change man...cuz these words are like, real man...pass me that doobie.

You realize this is satire, right? The author of this and the site are about as conservative/libertarian as it gets. The problem is that the left has moved beyond satire since the Obamasiah achieved Sainthood. There is virtually nothing you can say along leftist lines, no matter how absurd, that isn't a plausibly real utterance from a liberal.
