Corey Comperatore Embodied Heroic Masculinity: ‘A man’s job is to protect those he loves—even if it costs him his life.’

President Trump survived the Saturday, July 13th assassination attempt but those involved in whipping up the nut jobs on the left are still complicit in murder.

This from patriotpost.us.

In a split-second decision Corey Comperatore chose to shield his wife and daughter from the gunfire. He was killed by the would-be assassin’s bullet.

Corey’s daughter Allyson Comperatore wrote on Facebook:

The media will not tell you that he died a real-life super hero.

They are not going to tell you how quickly he threw my mom and I to the ground.

They are not going to tell you that he shielded my body from the bullet that came at us.

Further:

He loved his family. He truly loved us enough to take a real bullet for us.

Corey Comperatore is a hero. Take note, please:

There should be no question why Corey Comperatore shielded his wife and daughter, instead of trying to save himself.

He did it because he was a man.

A man’s job is to protect those he loves

—even if it costs him his life.

In a tragedy, this all seems obvious. But think about how often society sends young men the opposite message.

It starts in childhood. Society pushes the belief that there aren’t innate differences between boys and girls, men and women. Children receive that message early. In 2021, California passed a law requiring large retail chains to have a gender-neutral toy section.

Assemblyman Evan Low, one of the bill’s sponsors, said at the time:

The segregation of toys by a social construct of what is appropriate for which gender is the antithesis of modern thinking.

This is all part of the twisted transformation-of-America diminishment of our American culture.

The implication of that message is that men do not have an obligation to protect women. This is wrong on so many levels and Corey Comperatore knew that. He was a man of the pre-transformation era.

And now We Patriots of America have the life-saving example of Corey Comperatore to exemplify. The days of BHO’s experiments and transformations must be relegated to a sad, mistaken chapter of our great nation—not to be forgotten, rather to say ‘Never again.’

Boys must be allowed to occupy their time with rambunctiousness rather than being forced to sit quietly for a great part of the day. For too long, the boys who did not sit still like the girls do were subjected to the societal fix. Millions of boys have been drugged with Ritalin for acting like boys. They were emphatically given the message that their energy is a disease to cure, not a gift to tame and use productively.

The natural tendency of males to succeed in math and the hard sciences isn’t celebrated. It is proof the patriarchy is alive and well. Society pushes girls into STEM while ignoring that boys have fallen behind girls in almost every academic measure. Boys learn their success is shameful because it’s holding back girls.

Then after puberty takes hold, young men are told by society that masculinity is “toxic.”

Their strength, their energy and their interests are inherently destructive.

NOTE: New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd titled her 2005 book, Are Men Necessary? When Sexes Collide.

Unsurprisingly, the book—questioning whether a woman’s pursuit of a mate is worthy as well as performing a cultural analysis—was not well received by the critics. Enough of this nonsense.

Corey Comperatore’s life and heroic death resoundingly answer the question above.  Society needs men like Comperatore. Not because he was strong, but because he used his strength—and his wits—to protect those he loved. And not because he was perfect, but because he rejected passivity and took responsibility for those he loved. Further, not because he died, but because he lived expecting a greater reward for what he did on earth.

Allyson Comperatore said her dad “was a man of God, loved Jesus fiercely, and also looked after our church.” He was a man worth emulating.

Instead of telling men to reject masculinity, point them to Corey Comperatore, who lived out heroic masculinity.

Final note: Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) has ordered all Virginia flags to be flown at half-staff in memory of Corey Comperatore, a former fire chief  killed at President Trump’s Pennsylvania rally on Saturday.
