To tell the truth, in the end, we will feel a bit of embarrassment that will overflow into human solidarity. For the left-wing commentators. Because for a week now, progressive editorialists have been getting slapped left and right, “and what is not missing on the left is not missing on the right” (cit. Aldo, Giovanni and Giacomo). First Keir Starmera Labour Party member, who comes to Italy to praise Giorgia Meloni’s migrant plan, which is so opposed by our “border openers”. Then Olaf Scholzwho launches the Crusade against human traffickers and it seems that he too wants to copy the pact with Albania like the English. Finally, Holland, which asks for a stop to the EU’s asylum policies. Then again Germany, ready to say goodbye to the free circulation of Schengen. And now Kamal Harristhe newly elected champion of global progressivism, elevated to a political genius after having been considered inept for years, the Kamala that Roberto Speranza wants to imitate, confessed on TV that she has a gun, that she is even proud of it and that she is ready to shoot if anyone dares to set foot in her house.
Do you remember? Matthew Salvini? “Defense is always legitimate.” Or: “The thief who enters my house must know that he can come out lying down.” Here. Only this time, instead of the leader of the League saying it, Mrs. Harris reiterates it.
Not that it surprises us. First of all, because the US is the US and whoever wants to win the elections certainly can’t alienate all the Americans who own a gun (they are growing, the data says, especially among Democrats) and all those who consider private property an inalienable right. Untouchable. And then, evidently, as he rightly says today Alexander SallustKamala Harris knows the concept of “common sense” better than our left. It is common sense to regulate immigration. It is common sense to defend private property. At this point, all that remains is to ask ourselves: when the leaders of the left claim they want to import the Harris model to Italy, do they also mean the wall with Mexico (which Biden-Harris have started building again) and easy shooting?
“Accepting the nomination he made a speech full of values and perspective – he said Elly Schlein after the nomination in Chicago – On the right to healthcare, education, housing, work and a decent wage”. With weapons in hand, Kamala will be able to restore “hope to the USA”. “The Democratic Party also supports you in this crucial challenge!”, Elly said. At least until yesterday. Today, in reality, everyone is silent. The Democratic Party is silent. The left is silent. The editorialists are silent. Those who accused the supporters of legitimate defense (of property or family) of wanting the Wild West are saying nothing.. I’ll unlock some titles for you, recovered from the archive of Republic: “Those gun-toting mayors who propagate the myth of do-it-yourself defense”; “The arms race in the Italy of vigilantes who remain unpunished”; “Armed propaganda” (on the new law wanted by Salvini); “Do-it-yourself defense makes us more insecure”. What do you say, should we have Kamala read them?
