The article below by Katrina Trinko is reproduced from the Daily Signal.  It is quite insightful about what the left is trying to do, that is, to intimidate into silence those who believe in Christian morality and values. If the left is successful in doing this, then they will be able to impose whatever control mechanisms they decide are needed to get people to think in one specific way, their way.

It is time for Americans to take our country back from those who would destroy all that has been accomplished since our founding.  As Trinko points out, we need to speak up when we hear things that are not true.  She understands that it’s hard to speak up sometimes, especially if you think people will judge you negatively.

We need to speak up when we hear that pro-lifers are anti-women.  We need to speak up when we hear that all children who are pro-life are bigots and racists.  We need to speak up when we hear that boys who attend private schools will become rapists and worse.  We need to speak up when we hear that if you are white, male and Christian that this is the definition of a racist.

People who advance these ideas want to turn the country into a totalitarian state where only their ideas will be spoken, where if you disagree with them you will be branded as a second-class citizen at best, where shaming people because they believe that marriage is between a man and a woman is okay, where violence threatened/committed against you will be acceptable since you do not think like them.  None of this is a Christian or American way of living.  What this is, is about cowing people and maintaining control over how they think.  This needs to be stopped.

The Left’s Use of Intimidation to Silence Christians
