Thought Police alive and well in Boston


70 years ago, Ayn Rand wrote of the "Office of the Moral Conditioner", this was a government office that made certain that people had the right thoughts, and loyalties. She wrote it as the most outlandish example of the logical conclusion of progressive policies, admitting that it could never happen, probably. Well Now it has.

Mayor Mennino's letter warning Chick-Fil-A that it will find it difficult if not impossible to obtain permits and licenses until the owner changes his OPINION on same sex marriage, is reprehensible. He claims Boston is too tolerant, and inclusive to allow someone with that opinion to open a business here. Consider THAT oxymoron for a moment. The Mayor has brought the authority of government to bear upon a company because one of it's officers has an opinion that the mayor does not like. Yup, Mumbles, THAT is Liberal tolerance.

Welcome to the office of the Moral Conditioner, so much for diversity of thought.
