We are all too familiar with the liberals’ S.I.N. tactics (shift the subject, ignore the facts, and name-call) to deny people the opportunity to hear an opposing point of view. They have now increased the frequency of three other blatant tactics to prevent people from hearing conservative truths.
"Shout them down!"
"Shut them down!"
“Lie!”
Liberals don't want you to hear opposing views. They only want you to hear theirs
"Shout them down" starts with interrupting a conservative when he or she is trying to respond to a question with a logical response. This is to deny the listener the opportunity to hear an uninterrupted response, because the listener might agree with it. So talking over a conservative creates a distraction, and sometimes the conservative responder has to push back and maybe lose their train of thought.
I have experienced this many, many times! So much so that I will no longer do this kind of interview. They are stressful and disruptive, and the listener usually does not gain much from the exchange, and I leave feeling as if I was robbed of the opportunity to make my points, and wasted my time.
I just saw an example of this on Hannity with guests Larry Elder and Geraldo Rivera. Sean posed a question to them about President Trump’s first 100 days in office. As Geraldo spewed his half-truths and invalid comparisons between Trump and Obama, Larry sat and listened. As soon as Sean asked Larry to respond, Geraldo interrupted trying to force Larry to respond to the interruption. Larry held his ground quite well.
Watch for this tactic the next time a program presents guests with so-called opposing views. Liberals don't want you to hear opposing views. They only want you to hear theirs.
Direct assault on the First Amendment to the Constitution
If shouting conservatives down does not work, then they try to shut them down with violent disruptions or the threat of violence. The most recent and vivid example was what happened when conservative voice Ann Coulter was scheduled to speak at the University of California at Berkeley. She finally gave in to not go when the university would not help ensure her safety, or the safety of the Berkeley conservative students who invited her.
This is sick and frightening!
It is a direct assault on the First Amendment to the Constitution. The government can't deny a person's First Amendment rights, but a so-called California university chooses to do so by discouraging a conservative event, rather than encouraging an event.
The good news is that most colleges and universities are encouraging free speech, whereas some like Berkeley are trying to deny free speech.
There's another liberal tactic I saw recently that's not new, but it is more blatantly used than it used to be.
Lying!

Most of the liberal media have already forfeited their integrity by reporting fake, half-true and false news
When Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi were asked to grade President Trump's first 100 days in office, they both gave him an "F" on all counts. They are obviously grading him an "F" because President Trump is undoing much of the damage done in the previous eight years, which they were a big part of.
If you read my commentary outlining his accomplishments versus the media crap, you will also conclude that he deserves at least an A-minus from the perspective of the people.
Yes! Schumer and Pelosi are lying to their base of supporters to feed their Trump Derangement Syndrome. Unfortunately, there are no signs that they are going to change anytime soon.
They will still be saying the same things at the end of eight years of a Trump administration. (The eight years part really drives liberals crazy.)
Most of the liberal media have already forfeited their integrity by reporting fake, half-true and false news. Many of them are not even deserving of First Amendment protection, but they will get it anyway.
The lens of the liberal media wants people to think what's happening on TV and at Berkeley is a big national trend. No it's not, because most patriotic Americans are not about to allow a few anti-constitutional big mouths to shout us down, shut us down, or lie to us hoping we are too stupid to know it’s a lie.
Our Constitution is too important, and some of us will fight to preserve it.
