Are you in danger of being reported to the authorities for expressing your ‘politically incorrect’ thoughts and behaviors while in the safety of your home, and in the privacy of family conversations? At least one journalist thinks so: Cheryl Chumley, a reporter for The Washington Times and the author of “Police State USA,” feels that a remark made by Michelle Obama reflects a growing trend in America to target and attack individuals for committing “thought crime.”

Michelle Obama’s recent remarks made headlines when she reportedly exhorted graduating high schoolers in a commencement address to monitor their families for politically incorrect thoughts and behaviors. Chumley described this as an intrusion of family privacy by government that belongs “in a George Orwell novel, not the White House.”

The Daily Caller reported that Chumley “sees a troubling growth of America’s most powerful political figures now singling out private individuals for their beliefs, and using government agencies and public denunciations to intimidate opponents into silence.” Several examples as seen by Chumley include:-

• Harry Reid attacking the Koch brothers “for the crime of giving money to conservative causes”;

• President Obama, Joe Biden and the entire cast of the White House, for slamming lawful gun owners for exercising their Second Amendment rights, and for trying to drum up emotional-fueled support to ram through gun control;

• The IRS targeting of tea party and patriotic non-profits;

• The nation’s highest law enforcement official, Eric Holder’s of stonewalling on a special prosecutor appointment;

• The creation of hate crime laws as one of the first steps in the country’s history in the direction of attacking unpopular and politically incorrect thoughts in America.

According to Chumley: “What comes to mind when I think of the genesis for this growing trend of government to control Americans’ speech, and by extension, thoughts, is when the notion of hate crime was brought into our criminal prosecution system — as if acts of violence that are committed because of racial divides deserve a different category of ‘extra-special bad’…Political correctness and pandering politicians have fueled this narrative in recent years. Anybody who throws the race card on a regular basis — think Eric Holder, Al Sharpton, Harry Reid — is guilty to a certain degree of clamping down on free speech, and in turn, making Americans even wary of what they think.”
