The Stuff of Fairy Tales
Trolls under bridges, that is.
Except this one was put there by the government.
Mr. Sinatra, your cue please:
Except this one was put there by the government.
Mr. Sinatra, your cue please:
Fairy tales can come true,
it can happen to you...
Situation Under Control
At this point we believe we have investigated the alleged threats and the verifiable threat sufficiently and extensively and have dealt with both in a manner relative to the alleged and actual threats. We treated both of these incidents as serious and investigated them accordingly and dealt with them immediately.And what will you do if you have to deal with an actual threat incident immediately, Principal Berndt? Which children entrusted to your custody are you and your staff personally prepared to protect, and how?
Ah well--at least you're in good company.
We're the Only Ones Absolutely Discharged Enough, Eh?
Former Ontario cabinet minister John Snobelen received an absolute discharge on weapons charges today in a court in Oakville, Ont..."Justice" Brown? As in "just us"?
Justice Stephen Brown said the former Progressive Conservative politician has already endured public embarrassment by being arrested, and his “foolish mistake will follow him.”
Or would he do the same for a non "Only One" too, eh?
Rising Unabated in the UK
THE number of gun crimes has risen by four per cent in a year, official figures revealed yesterday.Well, yes, but in fairness, our resources have been tied up on sausage roll and wheelie bin patrols...
More than 27 firearms offences are committed on our streets every day.
Gun Nuts and Racists
They're all the same if you listen to The Capital Times' resident indignant little socialist he-man, Joel McNalley.
The video in question is shown in this news report.
What's clear is that the clerk would have been shot had he not pulled his own gun--and the thug could have gotten away without incident had he not chosen to fire first.
That there was a bystander is simply the existing reality. Perhaps this McNalley character thinks that's justification to consent to being executed. Or perhaps, realizing how utterly useless he would be in such a situation, he just needs to spit bitchy venom in the desperate hope that others who share his unmanliness will find comfort in numbers--and in the state of the Social Democrats, he ought to find no shortage of fellow travelers .
As for hateful ignorance in YouTube comments, duh. Check out any topic and you'll find no shortage of foul-mouthed morons. But if you truly want to observe a link between spiteful bigotry and an identifiable group of people, look no further than "Your Progressive Voice," The Capital Times.

Shutting it Down
Hundreds of angry people marched through Harlem on Saturday after the Rev. Al Sharpton promised to "close this city down" to protest the acquittals of three police detectives in the 50-shot barrage that killed a groom on his wedding day and wounded two friends.Interesting pickle the "liberals" have gotten themselves into.
I wonder if they're going to call out the "Hercules Teams"? And if they do, what the reaction will be in Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit...

Doritos Recognizes Those Who Do Something
So look at who they're recognizing and do something yourself. And read the response from corporate wormtongue Cathy Dial. Where do they find such creatures?
Stuff's bad for ya anyway.
As an aside, I remember the North Hollywood shootout, and the shameful way B&B Guns, now closed down, was treated after they loaned the police rifles. They should have been honored in an official ceremony by a grateful city, instead of ignored and despised by wretched ingrates intent on their destruction.

Notice of Opportunity
With his rubbish collected only once a fortnight, Gareth Corkhill's wheelie bin was so full the lid wouldn't shut.Hard to believe this is what has become of the British Empire. They've managed to fulfill Orwell's and Welles' visions, what with calling an extortion payment demand a "Notice of Opportunity," and with the way the Morlocks treat the Eloi.
And for that, the father of four finds himself with a criminal record.
We're headed down that path ourselves, and I just don't get why so few apparently see that or care.

This Day in History: April 27
In answer to your favor of the 25th. delivered to me yesterday, I shall beg leave to inform you, that it was my design to have included the Militia of this City, in the 2000 or 2500 Men, which I thought might be wanted upon an emergency; but whether common prudence may not dictate the expediency, of extending your views to a greater number, in case of necessity is submitted to the wisdom of your board.
