Supervisor Christine Lim of the San Leandro Unified School District has ordered "Safe Space" banners posted in all classrooms.
I'm concerned about tolerance and acceptance, too. KABA's Inclusion Policy was derived from the one I originated at GunTruths.com, in an attempt to show everyone that--regardless of our differences--you have a right to self defense that all must respect.
The problem is, those who posture the loudest about diversity don't seem very tolerant of traditional values. Heck, the SF cops launched an investigation of me for asking the mayor if I could exercise my right to keep and bear arms in his city (and hypothetically describing what that might look like).
So it's not like the political left embraces diversity that doesn't advance their agenda. I wonder if children who wish to express and exemplify "traditional values" feel welcomed, or if prevailing attitudes intimidate them from proudly expressing who they are...?
Just to make sure all feel there is a "safe space" for them in San Leandro's public schools, I'm sending Ms. Lim a link to this post, and asking her to also make sure the following message gets posted in the classrooms, side-by-side with the other.
What a wonderful way to show tolerance and acceptance of all! Think there's a chance in hell she'll do it?

What's the Word I'm Looking For to Describe Mike Bloomberg?
The mayor described new tactics including a gun offender registration system, similar to one required for sex criminals, in which gun offenders would have to register and update their addresses with law enforcement. Bloomberg also said he would lobby to make criminal possession of a loaded gun a felony with a minimum prison sentence of 3 years. Both proposals would have to be pushed through the state Legislature."Enemy."
Yeah, that's the word.

We're the Only Ones Inquisitive Enough...
A police officer accused of pointing his gun at a suspect to force him to confess during voluntary questioning at a police box has been arrested, law enforcers said.Ah, gun-free Japan, where only the Samurai class bear arms in the service of their feudal lords...

"It Was an Accident!"
A lawmaker accidentally discharged a handgun in his General Assembly office in Richmond...Delegate John S. Reid...was ejecting the bullet cartridge when the gun went off, he said.And I'm sure his finger was nowhere near the trigger.
I love the part where he said he usually keeps the "bullets separate in his pocket."
Remember who else did that?

Do What We Say Or Else
A National Rifle Association-backed bill that would force businesses that sell hunting and fishing licenses to help register customers to vote cleared its first legislative hurdle Wednesday."Force"?
That doesn't seem very freedom-friendly...
