Once again, leftists are on the wrong side of a vital issue. And once again, things are not as they appear.
I watched news coverage of anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement protesters in Minnesota storming Cities Church, a Baptist church in St. Paul, during a Sunday morning service on Jan. 18, and I felt a twinge of righteous indignation.
Some leftists seem to hate law, order and President Donald Trump so much that they will interrupt a church service of evangelical Christians to make a point and possibly defy state and federal laws. They have crossed a line. Anti-ICE protesters, former CNN host Don Lemon in tow, screamed at Christians as they worshipped God, "Justice for Renee Good," and "Hands up! Don't shoot!"
On Jan. 19, Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon said the Justice Department "will pursue charges" related to the protest. Time will tell. Unfortunately, this escalates already high tensions in the Twin Cities over ICE agents arresting illegal migrants, and now protesters have ceded whatever optics advantage they thought they had. What is clear so far is that it seems like we may not find common ground on this issue, and that's too bad.
