For Progressives, "Thoughtcrime" is Worse than Mass Murder
posted 04/24/2014, 8:41 PM (William Norman Grigg)
[Category: Politics/Corruption]
 Pictured: Alleged racist Cliven Bundy, seen here dropping everything to play with a little brown child.
As any reasonably well-informed attorney knows, if a police officer follows a driver long enough he will witness a violation that supposedly justifies a traffic stop. Once this happens, the officer will "build the stop" by seeking a pretext to search the vehicle for evidence of violations that can lead to an arrest of the driver, or seizure of the vehicle and its contents.
Cliven Bundy, among others, can testify that Regime-oriented journalism operates in a very similar fashion: Have a reporter from the New York Times shadow a 67-year-old Mormon rancher from southeastern Nevada long enough, and eventually the subject will say something that offends current sensibilities about race. To be specific, Bundy used retrograde racial terminology in musing aloud about the damage done to the black family by the Welfare State--which he suggested might be as evil, in some ways, as the odious institution of chattel slavery.
Mr. Bundy is unusually media-savvy for a rancher, but he doesn't speak in sound-bites. He wasn't lamenting the fact that black Americans are no longer required to pick cotton for other people who supposedly "own" them, but that the modern welfare state has cultivated dependency, undermined the family, and helped to bring about both a stratospherically high incarceration rate for black men and a shockingly high abortion rate for black unborn children (a development he wouldn't lament if he genuinely hated black people).
That perspective could have been tidily packaged for media consumption in the following phrase: "The welfare state has done to black Americans what slavery could not have done, the harshest Jim Crow laws and racism could not have done, namely brea... (more) |

[Category: Politics/Corruption]
Voters continue to believe Democrats have more of a plan for the future than Republicans do, but most again say neither party represents the public.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 53% of Likely U.S. Voters think it is fair to say that neither party in Congress is the party of the American people. That’s up six points from 47% last October and matches the previous high found in June 2012 during the last national election cycle. Just 28% disagree, whil... (more) |

DENVER — The Mile High City was jammed with pot revelers Sunday for the annual 4/20 festival, but the mood was far from celebratory Monday as state legislators moved to tighten rules on marijuana products in the wake of two tragic deaths....

New Mexico Appeals Court Upholds Arbitrary Speed Limits
posted 04/21/2014, 12:38 AM (TheNewspaper)
[Category: Politics/Corruption]
The state of New Mexico does not need to justify its speed limits. The state Court of Appeals came to this conclusion earlier this month in upholding the conviction of Raul Tarin, a motorist who decided to mount a legal battle against his ticket for allegedly driving 71 MPH in a 45 MPH zone. Representing himself in court, Tarin argued that the state had to establish the speed limit's legitimacy before the ticket could be considered valid. It was the first time anyone had brought such an argument... (more) |

Louisiana House votes 27-66 to keep unconstitutional anti-sodomy law on the books

The Louisiana House of Representatives rejected legislation, on Tuesday, that would remove the state's symbolic ban on certain kinds of sodomy. The bill failed by a wide margin on a vote of 27-67, with 11 members not voting.
Louisiana's anti-sodomy law was overturned and declared unconstitutional in 2003, with the U.S. Supreme Court ruling such state statutes could not be enforced. Still, the Legislature has been unwilling to officially strike the measure from state law, even tho... (more) |

I vividly recall the first time I realized just how mindlessly and uncritically supportive of President Obama many Democrats were willing to be.

The Obama administration announced that, rather than contest or appeal those rulings, they would comply with ... (more) |

Also, I love how Obomber is now saying the cost is some $100 a month, and *might* be less than your cell phone bill. Hey douche, I'm paying $50 a month right now, so your garbage plan loaded with trash I don't want will cost me at least double. - Chris |
