Modern Day “Witch Hunts”

Phil Anschutz is the owner of the Coachella Arts and Music Festival.  His crime: owning the Washington Examiner and contributing to socially conservative organizations that oppose same-sex marriage and abortion. The Left, as always, is outraged.   Add Mr. Anschutz to the long list of public and private citizens outed and ripe for boycott.

As far back as the Spanish Inquisition, Salem Witch Trial, to the Hollywood Blacklists of the McCarthy Era,  political and religious witch hunts have always been part of human mental Pathology. This latest brouhaha is no different. This political witch hunt is setting a dangerous precedent. A word of wisdom to the social justice Left that used the power of the public square to shame and persecute free markets in thought; the momentum of the pendulum always shifts. Be warned.
