Perverts With Guns


Xavier has gained recognition for his recurring "Idiots With Guns" series. As stupid as some of his subjects are, he's always quick to disclaim:
The purpose of Idiots with Guns is not to humiliate, but to educate.
Meet Verna Bice. This "artist" knows exactly what she's doing, and she's not above using humiliation to indoctrinate. Sorry for linking to pornographic imagery (not due to graphic sexual nature, but because of contrived ugliness), but this is a telling glimpse into how guns are perceived--or at least portrayed--in the mind of Ms. Bice.

This is some sick stuff.

The Moustache Stays

Rosie O’Donnell’s new mega contract with ABC has one absolute proviso: the former talk show queen cannot cut her hair.
Can she at least trim her hooves?

"Thousands Of Guns Taken Off The Streets"

“We don't have to wait for the government to make a difference,” said the Rev. Michael Pfleger, the pastor of St. Sabina. “We can make a difference by taking guns out of our communities. There's no reason for anybody to have a gun in their house unless they're law enforcement, as far as I'm concerned.”
Yeah, right, you sanctimonious witch doctor, we all know police are the only ones who can be trusted with firearms. It looks like somebody has figured out that letting cops fence stolen weapons--no questions asked-- is a no-risk way to make a profit.

There is a bit of a paradox: If churches are doing this to effect political outcomes, their tax exempt status could be scrutinized. If, on the other hand, they're doing this to advance their religious beliefs, what the hell is the state doing expending public funds/manpower to impose this on the public? Where's that "wall of separation" we're told is needed to protect us from theocracy? You can't have it both ways--or doesn't Chicago Police Supt. Philip Cline gushing like a giddy Million Mom as he actualizes Michael Pfleger's superstitious prejudices count?

Oh, and Rafael Romo--sorry to burst your bubble, but what you're doing is "shilling," not "reporting." You wouldn't recognize a watchdog press if it bit you--and it obviously hasn't, you tool.
