VJ Day Kisser Dies: #Metoo Celebrates

Timothy Birdnow

George George Mendonsa is dead at age 95.

Mendonza was the sailor in the famous photograph kissing the "nurse" (actually a dental student, but she was wearing nursing garb) on VJ day in the iconic photograph in Times Square. Mendonsa died of a seizure in his assisted living facility he shared with his wife. He was just shy of his 96th birthday.

This photograph was a sweet, memorable part of American history, a sailor overcome with the joy of a brutal war's end kissing a stranger (Greta Zimmer Friedman) at a blowout celebration.

Naturally the left, ever eager to destroy all of our memorials and cultural heritage, has declared this an act of sexual assault.

While for years the photograph

Critics of the photograph say it is symbolic of a time when men controlled women and that it even normalized sexual assault and rape culture.

In a 2005 interview, Friedman confirmed that she did not know Mendonsa was going to kiss her. "The guy just came over and kissed or grabbed,” she told the Library of Congress, adding that he was just "really celebrating” but that it was not a "romantic moment.”

Can anyone really argue that this woman was traumatized by this? She was at a huge party, one that made New Years Eve 19999 a tame affair. Even if she found it marginally offensive, it was a kiss, not anything more. Everyone has been hugged or kissed by people they don't especially want to be hugged or kissed by on occasion. It was NOT sexual.

And can anyone argue that times are better now? A lot of woman WANT to be kissed and aren't because men are afraid of being called sexual predators. Innocence has been lost to the smarmy sexual revolution and the insatiable rage of feminism. Wasn't that a better time, even if it necessitated an occasional hug or kiss at a time of great emotion?

I would like to direct everyone to my article about murdering memorials. The Left in America has taken a page from the Islamic playbook; they seek to destroy our memorials, our iconic imagery, our cultural traditions, in order to make us what they want, to control our thoughts and minds. It's an old scheme, and it helped Islam control the Levant for over a thousand years now; they simply wiped away the older culture and imposed their own on the ruins. It's why the Taliban destroyed numerous statues of the Buddha in Afghanistan, for instance. And this fake outrage at a celebratory kiss after the end of the biggest war in history is just another attempt to wipe away all traces of the America that was.

Does anyone really want to live in the world the Left is peddling? A place where everyone is enraged all of the time, where we are divided and subdivided into ever smaller warring group, where natural relations between men and women are suppressed in a manner far worse than ever the Puritans employed? Is this REALLY what anybody wants?

In George Orwell's 1984 the Anti-Sex League imposed chilling relations between men and women and woe to anyone caught dilly-dallying without formal permission. The Left started the sexual revolution, and made all manner of sex - no matter how perverted - acceptable. They destroyed the bonds of affection in favor of animalistic, mechanical, selfish sexual activity, and now they are moving away from Aldous Huxley's Brave New World to Orwell's Anti-Sex League. Both have the same results, though; the alienation of the sexes into warring camps. This destroys the joyous nature of relations between the sexes - and I don't mean sexual only - and it ultimately destroys the family. In the end everyone will wind up as children of the State - the ultimate goal here.

When asked if they want to go to Hell how many stupid people will #metoo?
