Following the San Bernardino terror attack, liberals have wasted no time politicizing the tragedy. Holding steadfast to the belief that no good crisis should ever go to waste, the knee-jerk responses to the tragedy by each of the Democrat presidential candidates as well as the president himself have been to call for stricter gun control measures. But no response has been more telling than that of Attorney General Loretta Lynch. At a press conference regarding the terror attack, Lynch told reporters, “We’re at the point where these issues have come together really like never before in law enforcement thought and in our nation’s history and it gives us a wonderful opportunity and a wonderful moment to really make significant change.” At least she was being honest. She and the president are on the same page when it comes to wanting to use the tragedy of a terror attack as leverage to restrict the Second Amendment rights of law abiding Americans. Lynch later attended a Muslim Advocates’ dinner where she told the crowd that her “greatest fear” is the “incredibly disturbing rise of anti-Muslim rhetoric” in America. She then vowed to prosecute anyone found participating in violence inspiring speech. “The fear that you have just mentioned is in fact my greatest fear as a prosecutor, as someone who is sworn to the protection of all of the American people, which is that the rhetoric will be accompanied by acts of violence,” she said. “Now obviously this is a country that is based on free speech, but when it edges towards violence, when we see the potential for someone lifting that mantle of anti-Muslim rhetoric—or, as we saw after 9/11, violence directed at individuals who may not even be Muslims but perceived to be Muslims, and they will suffer just as much—when we see that we will take action,” said Lynch. After touting the numbers of “investigations into acts of anti-Muslim hatred” and “bigoted actions” against Muslims launched by her DOJ, Lynch suggested the Constitution does not protect “actions predicated on violent talk” and pledged to prosecute those responsible for such actions. “I think it’s important that as we again talk about the importance of free speech we make it clear that actions predicated on violent talk are not America,” said Lynch. “They are not who we are, they are not what we do, and they will be prosecuted.” Lynch assured the Muslim group that “we stand with you” and that the Justice Department would work to protect Muslims from violence and discrimination.
