Land mines have a long history in warfare. Minefields in warfare are primarily used in defensive scenarios, but modern terrorists use them offensively (pun intended).
There are several ways to avoid the damage of a minefield. One way is go around it, but you have to be aware of the field in advance and must have some idea of its size. A second way is to clear the minefield. This must be done manually. It takes time, it is very slow and endangers personnel, but you may blow a safe path through the field large enough for your purpose. This method is very expensive and is not one hundred per cent effective. A third way is to cross the forbidden ground, taking a chance and then everyone who follows will follow the safe path. This is dangerous but it is the fastest way.
IED (improvised explosive devices) are a type of land mine, but this article is about another type of terrorist minefield…that of “political correctness”.
The PC mine is used offensively. It is designed to bait, harass, and entrap freedom loving Americans. There are also times when it is used as a facade, daring anyone to cross into an area at their own risk. This type PC minefield is known by many names, social (legal) extortion, Danegeld, Liberation Theology, pacification, civil rights, civil liberties, tolerance, diversity, etc.
It is time to start crossing those PC minefields. To quit being afraid of what might be and face what is. The socialist progressives have planted real and imaginary minefields hoping that we not test them. We are letting the minority rule this Republic. It is time to step up and step out for Freedom.
