7. Here's a recent example of Horowitz's utter stupidity
Liberals won't admit Rodney King is a loser

By David Horowitz

But liberals had to make their point. They had to roll out the racial melodrama, insisting that every time a black man is arrested -- even one fleeing and refusing to be cuffed -- a hate crime is committed by the police themselves. Liberals had to wring millions of dollars out of Los Angeles taxpayers to pay reparations to a man whom everyone knew then and knows now is just a pathetic bum.

<snip>

Of course, the same liberals have already forgotten the 58 people who are dead because of Rodney King and the criminals he and his supporters inspired. Nobody cares about the innocent victims of the protesters for social justice -- the 2,000 Koreans who lost their businesses to "black rage"; the four cops who lost their careers because they beat a reckless criminal who was resisting arrest and refused to go prone.

And so is the inspirer of it all, Rodney King, forgotten, too. But he is forgotten because remembering him would tell a liberal culture more than it wants to hear.

It's amazing how this raving right winger is able to figure out exactly what I think. This is is usual tactic - projecting the most absurd notions (in this case that Rodney King is a poor victim of prejudice) and then accusing the liberal mainstream of supporting these notions.
