Tomi Lahren 8 hrs · I was at a nice dinner in Dallas with some friends tonight and didn't bother to monitor my phone, twitter, Instagram, FB or social media. I've been working on the whole "work/life balance thing" and found it's liberating to unplug every once in awhile. Well come to find out, during my 3 hour social media hiatus, #RIPTomiLahren started trending on Twitter. Amazing. Some are so bitter, so bored and so empty they have to ignite a death hoax to feel important. Sorry folks, I'm still very much alive and stronger than ever. It's moments like this when a fake death hashtag starts trending that I am reminded of just how important my voice is. See, the Left, the so-called "social justice warriors" are so threatened by fearless voices. They can't win on their ideas, policies or character traits so they are forced to wish death on their opposition. It's sad, truly. I've seen countless examples of the intolerant and unloving left- many examples I've kept to myself. However, tonight I'm feeling open so I'll share a story with you- a written "final thoughts." Here we go. A couple weeks back I was at a small bar in McKinney, Texas with one of my good friends. We were sitting at the bar, minding our own business when a gentlemen approached us. He was a fan. He expressed his appreciation for my work, shook my hand and walked away. It was then a white woman approached us, almost immediately after the gentlemen walked away. She made it very clear she was NOT a fan of mine. She told me my work offended her blended family. I have never been confronted negatively in person before- this was a new experience. I told her it is never my intention to offend anyone and I am glad she has a strong worldview and voice- even if it is contrary to my own. She wasn't having it. She told me not everyone can grow up "in Dallas to white privilege" like I have. I told her I was born and raised in Rapid City, SD to a working class family. She was shocked. I told her the world is full of misconceptions and wished her a nice evening. Again, she wasn't having it. She started in on my friend- grilled him on his job. He told her he was in real estate, she asked what company and then cut him off to tell him his company used immigrant labor. I had enough at this point. She wouldn't leave. I told her I would never want to impose on her evening and reminded her the USA is so great because we can have differences of opinion and worldview. AGAIN, she hasn't having it. She started in on the whole "so you agree America is already great so we don't need to make it great again." The woman WOULD NOT STOP. I again wished her a good evening and she finally trotted off. Not far. She sat down alone at the table near the bar. She proceeded to pull out her phone and presumably text everyone she knew. Amazing. The woman wanted to get a rise out of me so badly. She was looking for a fight. I wouldn't give it to her. I don't engage in that foolishness. I don't attack people or get in their face to try to start something. That's not me. I can respect people whom I disagree with. That's an American thing to do- a Christian thing to do. Oh, but the story isn't over my friends, oh no. The young lady bartender was also a fan of mine. She asked me to take a photo in the corner after last call. I was happy to. The next weekend, my friend returned to the bar with his sister. He texted me and shared something that shocked and disgusted me. The woman who confronted me stayed at the bar after I left. She then went to the bartender and asked for her tab back. She removed her tip because the bartender took a photo with me! Can you believe it? She didn't agree with or like me, so she stiffed the bartender?! The unloving and intolerant Left strikes again. I've learned the folks who proclaim to be "social justice warriors" are the truly the exact opposite. They claim to rest on a moral high ground but are the lowest of Americans at the end of the day. They are the loudest and ask for the most, but don't get it twisted, they aren't the majority. The silent majority is rising. The hard working folks of every color who do their best to make a family and a living without asking for anything they didn't earn. The folks that love and give without acknowledgement. The folks that would happily give the shirt off their back to anyone in need. The folks that might barely make enough money to get by but are morally rich and integrity-driven. Here's to you. I am glad I can be your voice. Mark my words, I will never back down. Keep working hard and taking care of business. Defend our country. Protect our communities. Grow and raise our food. I'll take care of the a-holes. God Bless and take care. #TeamTomi
