Kathy Shaidle had a short but ingenious post the other day, headlined "If we're crazy, they made us that way": The same people who told us 30 years ago that "marriage is just a stupid piece of paper" now insist that it's a "human right." The same people who told us that "a flag is just a meaningless piece of material" now want certain flags banned and others raised or else. The same people who say you can't change who you want to f*ck tell us you CAN change the bits you f*ck them with... The same people who used to tell us to "lighten up" and "learn to take a joke" now fire people who make them. It's ...
Oklahoma Supreme Court orders removal of Ten Commandments monument Post Date: 2015-06-30 13:42:21 by Willie Green

The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled on Tuesday that a Ten Commandments monument placed on State Capitol grounds must be removed because the Oklahoma Constitution bans the use of state property for the benefit of a religion. The 6-foot-tall (1.8-meter) stone monument, paid for with private money and supported by lawmakers in the socially conservative state, was installed in 2012, prompting complaints that it violated the U.S. Constitutions provisions against government establishment of religion, as well as local laws. In a 7-2 decision, the court said the placement of the monument violated a section in the states constitution, which says no public money or property can be used ...

St. Louis, MO Nothing says Police State USA quite like a SWAT team raiding a family home and killing their dog because they are unable to pay their natural gas bill. The woman whose dog was killed and home destroyed by SWAT officers is Angela Zorich, and her story about her police state experience will shock the conscious. According to a federal lawsuit filed this month, Zorich was the victim of a massive military-style raid and subsequent puppycide. The raid was carried out because police said they needed to check if her home had electricity and natural gas service. This is an example of police overreaching and using excessive force to get a family out of their ...

If you dont want a man unhappy politically, dont give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it

Cops took the kid to the precinct, rather than her house.A 7-year-old in Westbrook, Maine, was playing at the park within eyesight of her familys house. Someone called 911 (of course) and the police swooped in. They took the girl to the precinct because, as this WMTW reporter notes, Mom wasnt watching. What? Mom didnt devote her afternoon to sitting at the side of the park and watching her childs every move? Tsk, tsk. The child was on her own for about an hour, and as Police Chief Janine Roberts told the reporter, Thats a long time for a 7-year-old girl to be by herself any place, let alone a park. ...

Ted Cruz of Texas and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida. ...

APNewsBreak: Indian tribe recognition process overhauled Post Date: 2015-06-29 09:45:03 by cranky

The Obama administration is making it easier for some Indian tribes to obtain federal recognition, addressing a longstanding grievance of many Native Americans. The new regulation updates a 37-year-old process that has been roundly criticized as broken because of the many years and mounds of paperwork that typically went into each application. But the effort to address those criticisms generated a backlash of its own, with some lawmakers and existing tribes with casino operations complaining that the administration's original proposals set the bar too low. The Obama administration made changes in the final rule that answers many of those concerns, but not all. Kevin Washburn, an ...

The Confederate battle flag has become the focus of national soul-searching over race relations in the aftermath of last week's massacre of nine African-Americans in a landmark Charleston, South Carolina, church. The young white man charged with the killings posed with the flag on a website that ...

A San Francisco high school is looking at teaching a faggot studies course. Clearly, one of the most important issues of our time is to ensure our children know what it is like for faggots, anal rapists and carpet munching dykes to live in such a hate filled oppressive society such as America. Without such classes, America will not survive into the future. From CBS: A San Francisco high school may be the first in the country to offer an LGBT studies course. The course will cover terminology, and the broad history of LGBT issues. Well look at what its been like for gay men, what its been like for lesbian women, what its been like for transgender ...

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said on "Meet the Press" he viewed the Confederate flag as a "road block" for his state, joining others who called for removing it from the grounds of the South Carolina capitol in the wake of this month's shootings in Charleston.

Days after the shooting, Graham told CNN the flag is "part of who we are" in South Carolina. But last week he stood ...

Proposed Bill Would Make it Illegal to ‘Back In’ to Your Own Drive Way. No, Seriously Post Date: 2015-06-28 13:24:42 by Deckard

Jacksonville, Fl A proposed bill in Jacksonville, Florida would impose a fine on people who back their vehicle into their own driveway, effectively punishing those who practice this safe parking technique. Backing in would be allowed only if license plate information is clearly visible from the street. Bill number 2015-377 is designed to help authorities crack down on abandoned vehicles, but in typical State fashion, it tramples on the rights of people to engage in the most innocuous of behaviors. To aid city code enforcement inspectors in their revenue collection, the entire city of Jacksonville would suddenly be banned from backing into their driveway unless certain conditions are ...

The Supreme Court mandated gay marriage for all fifty states, in what is being celebrated as a bold stand for equality. Of course, all the Supreme Court really did is ratify the opinion of the Ruling Class: Big Business, the Main Stream Media, and the academic and bureaucratic Establishments: Regardless of its merits as policy, the Courts decision on marriage was undeniably a judicial coup détat by Americas home-grown Jacobins. It capped what may have been the worst week in history for movement conservatives. Just to review what else happened the last few days: The Republican Congress joined with President Obama to pass the catastrophic Trans-Pacific ...

Yesterday, as you know, five justices on the SCOTUS redefined what marriage is in America and also found the time to violate the concept of federalism. They decided that an individuals behavioral choice was grounds to create a new right in the U.S. Constitution. Now of course there are those of you who are somewhat despondent, but just know that in every storm there is a rainbow quite sure yall get my tongue-in-cheek comment. Yep, since now the SCOTUS has determined it can bequeath a right to marriage across all 50 states, there is an interesting point to be made.

Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker blasted the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage as a grave mistake and called for a Constitutional amendment allowing states to define marriage. As a result of this decision, the only alternative left for the American people is to support an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to reaffirm the ability of the states to continue to define marriage, he said. In Florida, neither Jeb Bush nor Marco Rubio support an amendment, despite disagreeing with the court decision. Governor Bush does not believe amending the Constitution is the right course, spokeswoman Kristy Campbell said. Right now, we ...
