So Dwight Armstrong died last week. He was an asshole who planted a bomb made of jet fuel near a lab at the University of Wisconsin back in 1970. The bomb killed a young teacher named Robert Fasnacht, who had three kids.
I bring this up because The Weekly Standard rightly nailed the Washington Post for its obituary headline describing Armstrong as a “Vietnam War Protester.”
The Standard says that’s like describing Major Hasan simply as a “Fort Hood Psychiatrist.”
They’re right, but I would go further.
It’s like saying Adolf Hitler was a regimented vegetarian.
Or the Donner party enjoyed cold cuts.
Or Lizzie Bordon was a cut up.
Or John Wilkes Booth was a great actor.
