Credit Where Due

I linked to this great and outrageously true graphic some time back and just received a request to source the originator.  I've done the standard Google search but it appears everyone posting it got it from somewhere, but who put it together remains a mystery, to me at least.

If you know, please leave a comment and link.

We're the Only Ones Prickly Enough

Mom Says Prickly School Cop Killed Her Son [More]
I saw some teenagers fighting some years back at the bus stop outside elder feral son Uday's preschool as I dropped him off. That's the kind of stuff adults shouldn't tolerate. I simply got out of my car, walked up to them and calmly but firmly told them to stop, which they did. 

It just never occurred to me that I could simply shoot them.  But then, I'm not a trained and prickly professional with a record of serial reprimands.

‘Progressive’ group ramps up attack on Issa

As for Mike Lux rejecting accusations his group’s attack on Issa is politically motivated, he and his board—and those behind the tentacles extending to all of them—are demonstrable agenda-driven political operatives on a mission, and this is but another front in the ideological war—in actuality a cold civil war—they are waging on the freedoms of American families.

And how exactly is that possible, unless the intent is to just launch smear campaigns against an enemy's list?

Oh. That must explain this. (Nice logo sending a message that "gun violence" is funny as long as it happens to Americans holding traditional patriotic values...)

And what about if the "attacks" are "founded"?

Regressives. Enemies of humankind since...forever.
