We're the Only Ones Hot-Dogging It Enough

Sgt. Brett Harrison left the dog in a cruiser in the station parking lot from about 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., according to a statement from police Tuesday. The cruiser was off and the windows were closed... He received a two-week unpaid suspension and lost 40 hours of vacation. [More]

Size Matters?

MEN AND VIOLENCE: SIZING UP HOW MEN SIZE UP ONE ANOTHER [More]
So let me guess... we're compensating? Alpha dominance?  Baboon mounting? Amazing, what gets grant money these days, but I guess there's a ruling elite market to find ways to box up and dismiss traditional males as violent brutes.

Sure, size disparity can be a factor (although the toughest man I ever met and would have least liked to try was almost a foot shorter than me). Sure, human nature tends to magnify threats.  Sure, armoring up against an imminent potential foe can prime a battle-ready state of mind if flight isn't an option. My guess is, ivory tower academics who had a light bulb go off over that keen insight never had cause to put on protective gear before a contest.

Somebody needs to formalize this? Whatever. Seems like a cushy gig.

If anything, this makes the case for perception discipline, situational awareness and training. And for a bit of Alinsky Rule 5 ridicule, courtesy of Sgt. Nick Penis and his Brassball Battallion... By the way, comic nerd that I was, I always thought NatLamp was templating off Marvel's pre-Samuel L. Jackson Sgt. Nick Fury and his Howling Commandos, not DC's Sgt. Rock of Easy Company.

And back to the sizing up thing for a moment: Some of us are as polite and deferential to the smaller, the older, the weaker, as we are to the bigger and stronger. Offering respect in personal encounters with others is the default until it is shown not be be deserved.

Funny, how they call themselves "progressives."  Opposite Day, remember?

ABC acting as administration’s propaganda bureau on guns is the real scandal

Masking such advocacy as entertainment is reminiscent of something much more insidious. Subjecting audiences to propaganda to promote a government monopoly of violence and disenfranchise citizens from natural and civil rights is demonstrably manipulative and disrespectful of viewers. It’s also dishonest with advertisers, who signed on to sponsor entertainment, not to finance causes that undermine the rights of their customers. [More]

Savage (masturb)Ation

Listen to the obnoxious carnival barker for yourself:


To anyone determined to argue that my article was based on a 2009 essay he wrote, so it's somehow no longer relevant, it's on you to show where he has repudiated his positions, apologized, and made an effort to correct the record and publicize it.

A gun-grabber is a  gun-grabber, and it doesn't matter if he's a big "but" (I'm a gun owner and believe in the Second Amendment but) gun-grabber. That's actually the worst kind. And this video demonstrates the powerhouse talk kapo also doesn't have a clue about delegated powers.

But it's OK -- the big boy "conservative" sites hawking this fraud's latest are generating thousands and thousands of comments and shares, completely drowning out the observation that the emperor has no clothes, so the Savage über alles crowd needn't worry.  I'm sure his new book will be a fantastic success.

A Fast and Furious Getaway for Holder?

The bottom line: By the time Holder testified under oath he’d only learned about things weeks before, hundreds of reports had been filed.

Sharyl Attkisson had begun her series of reports for CBS News featuring whistleblower John Dodson by the third week in February. Also damning for Holder are memos from National Drug Intelligence Center Director Michael Walther, showing the attorney general was apprised of Fast and Furious as early as July, 2010, and a letter sent by Senator Chuck Grassley to then-ATF Acting Director Kenneth Melson, dated January 31, 2011 that copied Holder.
