James Taranto points out the immediate responses of the National Organization of Women (NOW) to the beheading of a woman in Buffalo, as well as a couple of other news items featuring rank physical brutality perpetrated on women in America.
Here they are, as Taranto writes, "in their entirety and edited only for spelling and punctuation:"
Why the silence from a group which usually has a lot to say?
Guess what? The male perpetrators are Muslim.
I repeat that the psychological enemy of all progressives can really only be a white male, preferable American, Christian, straight, successful, etc. Exceptions are made for rednecks, who can be poor as dirt. And Israelis. And sometimes blacks who step off the plantation and take on unacceptable (conservative and/or Republican) values.
No one with the victim status that comes with either actual or imputed brownness (as in the case of Muslims, who have people-of-color status regardless of race) can be taken on. Regardless of what happens to their women.
