 College president apologizes for campus crime alert which had ‘black’ in suspect description [More]

Everyone knows the only acceptable descriptor is "teenlike."

As with all "progressive" ideas, it's been done:

As has Judenrat appeasement.

Embrace the Diversity!

 Slate calls people being offended by pedophilia "creepy"! [More]

Give it a few years and they'll also be vilified and destroyed for being "haters." 

Me, I'm waiting for the Democrats to proudly champion the first openly Minor Attracted President and his catamite companion gets designated COTUS.

ESPN to Televise Protesting Players and Singing of Black National Anthem [More]

Since this is evidently all about the right of pampered millionaires to impose their personal sentiments on company time and in company facilities, it seems fair to ask a few questions:

If people are free to cheer afterward, are they also permitted to boo? Can they take a knee during?

Assuming you survived the mob, the alternative of having security remove you for disruption might be a basis for a lawsuit...

And naturally, those sucking up aren't sucking hard enough:

Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick said NFL social justice initiatives were "propaganda" on Sunday as scattered protests marked the first full day of the 2020 season.

What have we said time and again about throwing a scrap of flesh to circling jackals...?

It's funny, but I wouldn't recommend this for obvious criminal and civil legal and other reasons, not the least being having the house become a target for violent late-night retaliation. Come to think of it, I'm not sure I'm buying this whole thing wasn't staged.

Author! Author!

 A draft report from the Department of Homeland Security, assessing the most dangerous terrorist threat facing the U.S. today, concludes that it isn’t Muslim radicals from foreign lands or the left-wing antifa crowd — it’s domestic right-wing radicalism driven by white supremacists. Anyone who is surprised by this should spend less time listening to Trumpist propaganda and more time reviewing America’s long history of racist terrorism. [More]

Almost four years in and the administration still hasn't outed and sidelined the embedded moles?

Meanwhile, Over in Giffords Gun-Grab Paradise

Two Los Angeles Sheriff Deputies Shot Multiple Times in a 'Straight Ambush' Attack [More]

 You guys sure it's "right-wing extremists" you want to enforce gun laws against, instead of those "peaceful demonstrators"?

To the protesters blocking the entrance & exit of the HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM yelling "We hope they die" referring to 2 LA Sheriff's ambushed today in #Compton: DO NOT BLOCK EMERGENCY ENTRIES & EXITS TO THE HOSPITAL. People's lives are at stake when ambulances can't get through.

A Matter of Conditioning

 Codevilla was right—this is a coup. Constitutionalism, separation of powers, and the rule of law are all gone. So are the older cultural norms in favor of community, personal choice, and privacy. Authoritarian rule is not a threat, it is a reality. None of this should come as a surprise. [More]

Yeah, but we're used to it by now.

 But unbeknownst to Peterson, the couple's attendance at the rally was noticed. Now Skidmore students are demanding that both Peterson be fired for "engaging in hateful conduct that threatens Black Skidmore students"... [More]

Last week we discussed a little light reading. Well, I did, anyway.

I am reminded there is also an archive for Stephen P. Halbrook and one for "gun control."

In the Interests of Expedience

 But Katyal’s involvement suggests the prosecution is doing everything it can to make sure it gets the convictions it must... [More]

Yeah, because they know what happened to L.A. when the Rodney King cops walked on excessive force charges, and they're not going to let a little thing like the right to a fair trial get in the way.

The Fact of the Matter

The fact of the matter is that existing laws provide an opening to deal with prohibited persons who have even one round of ammunition in their possession. [More]

He says that like it's a good thing...

UPDATE: And Tester "votes right on guns"...?

Worlds in Collision

 Some worry that U.S. democracy will suffer if guns intimidate would-be protesters from voicing their opinion. [More]

Those would be the same ones who would eliminate your opinion altogether.

The only collision here is between a false assumption fabricated and promulgated for political advantage and the truth.

The Cognitive Dissonance -- It Burns!

 A major American city may soon allow 16-year-olds to vote — and others could follow suit. If the proposition passes, San Francisco would become the first large city to give 16- and 17-year-olds the right to vote in local elections. [More]

It's telling how they all want to raise the age to own a gun to 21...

Gosh, it's almost like this is a cynical plot to appeal to the vanity of youthful useful idiots for the purpose of amassing even more power...

Data shows that half of 2019 donations to ActBlue came from untraceable ‘unemployed’ [More]

And no one else is reporting on this, and no Congressional hearings and FEC/DOJ investigations are demanding answers and seeking indictments?

Kind'a makes you look forward to "mail-in voting," doesn't it?

Unclear on the Concept

Trump to Hannity: ‘If I Wasn’t Here, You Wouldn’t Have a Second Amendment’ [More]

See, it's saying stupid $h!+ like this that confirms he does not grok the fundamentals, that he is not really being advised at all, and that most of the ones on the pander list have been included to enable just that.

At a time when fire in bellies is needed, insincerity and ignorance act as suppressors.

Meanwhile, Over at the Woolworth's Lunch Counter...

The University of Michigan-Dearborn hosted racially segregated events on Tuesday, one for “Non-POC,” and the other for “BIPOC” (Black, Indigenous, and People Of Color) students. During the two racially segregated “cafes,” the groups were encouraged to “discuss their experience as students on campus.” [More]

Now that's Opposite Day "progress"!

And I guess people would have been fired had they labeled the events "Non-CP" and BICP"...

So UM is tax plunder-funded, eh? With the wealth redistribution done by the same people who would destroy any tax cow enterprise that engaged in similar racist practices? 

New Nests to Foul

 Monica Gupta Mehta and her husband, an entrepreneur, have been through tech busts and booms, earthquakes, wildfire seasons and power outages. But it was not until the skies darkened and cast an unsettling orange light on their Palo Alto home earlier this week that they ever considered moving their family of five somewhere else. "For the first time in 20-something years, the thought crossed our minds: Do we really want to live here?" said Mehta, who is starting an education tech company. [More]

Well, jeez, Monica, I look at your Facebook page and I sure as hell don't want you dragging your leftist crap here..
