Chill Out! Our government handlers are earning their paychecks today, particularly in the Big Apple. You think you have a tough job? Just imagine if you had the assignment today of telling agitated citizens that it was perfectly logical and prudent to not quarantine a doctor who had just returned from Africa. . . where he had been treating Ebola patients. Instead he self-monitored and voluntarily stayed out of crowds. . . except when he rode the subway. . .and when he ate at a restaurant. . . and when he went bowling . . . and had his fiancee over to his apartment (who is also now quarantined, giving her lots of time to think about whether she wants to marry a guy who was this cavalier about putting her at risk). New York sent out a bevy of health care officials whose main job seemed to be not fighting Ebola but to console, patronize and calm the plebeians known as the American people. Ebola is not the danger, they said. Fear is! I am surprised they dont all wear hazmat suits to prevent undue contact with us -- the Neanderthals who believe that, when dealing with a deadly disease about which we still dont know all the facts, compulsory quarantine is the time-tested prudent thing to do. It is even more important than bowling. Those New York officials who were not busy sedating the public over Ebola devoted their energies to assuring us that the poor misunderstood fellow who decided yesterday to bury a hatchet in the skull of a rookie New York cop had absolutely nothing to do with radical Islam or ISIS or the headless grandmother in Oklahoma or the dead baby in Jerusalem killed by a Palestinian jihadist. Sure, his website attacked Zionists and Christians and defended jihad, his YouTube playlist was loaded with Malcolm X videos, his Facebook page has an image of a Muslim warrior and he said it was better to fight in the name of Allah than to sit around, but that is all circumstantial. Sure, it is true that ISIS has specifically called for attacks on soldiers (see Canada) and on law enforcement. That may seem significant to your poor know-nothing, closet racist, fear-mongering, average U.S. citizen, but trust us, there is nothing to see here. Move on people! Relax! Chill out! Have a little newly legalized pot and check out the latest Hollywood escapades of your favorite starlet. Everything is under control in Obamaland. Trust me.
