In Nature — all species have a means of culling the weak..
All except ours.....
In fact - we're even SUBSIDIZING their reproductive cycles....with tax dollars!
If give me pause to wonder - just who is MORE stupid?
A very accurate statement.
I coordinated counter-protests in Portland Oregon as a Protest Warrior leader.
The monkeys in handkerchief masks saw it as their beholden duty to vandalize store windows and brand new vehicles on privately owned car dealership lots.
They staged a “sitdown” in the middle of Burnside Street in downtown Portland - a major east-west thoroughfare, blocking the street for over two hours - long after their parade/march permit expired. Police were not allowed to wade in and cuff and stuff them at the outset as they should have been - the order having come from the mayor’s office...
A few years back, one clubbed a Portland Police Officer in the head with either a baseball bat, or a length of a 2 x 4, injuring the officer.
The cretin was never found; they closed ranks around him and made damn sure he got away, as well as refusing to ever identify him when questioned.
I walked into the midst of the heathens at one PW counter-protest; proceeded to burn a handmade-for-the-occasion Palestinian flag.
A crowd of probably at least a thousand jeered and cursed me, and one of the little turds nearby was about to “punk” me - hit me in the back of the head with the piece of lumber holding his protest sign.
Luckily I have eyes in the back of my head, and a fair ability to quickly read the faces of those in front of me and recognize what may be about to happen behind me...I waited for the last moment, the stupid twit had committed himself to the maneuver.
I turned, forearm up in a blocking position (Shorin-Ryu style), seized the piece of wood and jerked it out of his grip so suddenly, he could not have avoided getting a painful palmful of splinters. poor little jerk look pissed and pained...
Five police officers came marching in and surrounded me and the two friends with me, and escorted us a block away.
the entire left wing is full of putrid little cowards like them...only willing to act up when they have sheer numbers on their side.
Personally, I hope they do try to start that “revolution” they’re often flapping their gums about... >BIG EVIL GRIN<
A.A.C.

The stupid have a habit of dying off once you cut off their lifelong welfare supply.
I really don’t care what happens to those fiends.
I think light blue is the new brown, but yes.
But they did. Actually, poop is clean compared to the absolute bilge that issues from the minds of such radicals.
I hear that Hillsdale College, a liberal arts institution, is one of the exceptions.
When people affirm the good, but in reality they are, inevitably, less than good themselves, that makes them hypocrites to one extent or another. The conservative idea is that hypocrisy is an inevitable price of civilization. But modern liberals and nihilists constantly attack society for its hypocrisy. They point to people's actual moral failings as proof that the moral standards society upholds are fake. The conservative response is that it's better for people to affirm the good, even if they are flawed in their personal lives, than (as the left demands) not affirm the good at all, in order to avoid being hypocrites.The conservative understanding is that the good is higher than we are. We don't possess it or embody it; we strive, imperfectly, toward it. Thus conservatism understands the co-existence of the objective good and human frailty.
Liberals reject both those ideas. Believing there is nothing higher than man, liberals think that if a person says he believes in the moral good, that means he is saying that he himself is good, or rather that he is identical with the good. (Thus a New York Post reporter many years ago absurdly misquoted Rush Limbaugh's famous slogan, "Talent on loan from God," as, "I am God." The reporter was translating Limbaugh's traditional idea of the relation of man and God into a liberal idea ) In the liberal view, any actual moral failing by a person who says there is a moral good shows him to be a hypocrite, and morality to be a lie. Liberals thus conclude that the traditional idea of the moral good should be dropped, and people should be content with the "merely human," to use a favorite leftist phrase.
Having gotten rid of the traditional, religious-based idea of the moral good, liberals embrace the liberal idea of the moral good, which is compassion, equality, diversity, inclusion, stopping global warming, etc. Unlike believing in the traditional moral good, believing in the liberal moral good does not involve hypocrisy, because for a person to be good in the liberal sense no actual moral behavior, with its inevitable failures, is required: the person merely needs to affirm that he believes in compassion, equality, diversity, inclusion, and stopping global warming. By signing on to liberalism, one is simply and truly good. This is the source of liberals' inordinate self-esteem. Believing in a liberal good that is not higher than the self but identical to the self, liberals feel themselves to be perfectly good, even as they look with contempt and hatred at conservatives who hypocritically affirm, and seek to impose on society, some false higher good that they themselves don't follow.
Ulk, I’m so sorry happen. I’m so glad you were able to answer people’s questions though afterwards, probably the only bit conservatism they’ll here not through the lenscope of the liberals. I thank God that I go to a small liberal (well only a forth or third of our campus is) arts college. My friends from high school who go to these large colleges, liberals through and through afterwards (though it might have something to do with them being Canadian). Luckly, even the liberals on our campus are innocuous (there is one currently in the bed under me with my roommate, a liberal, who though may think I’m an idiot for my positions, will argue with me to the point of yelling and then make dinner for my room mate and me). Actually, if you don’t mind, I might send your article to my Media Law professor, he’s trying to get funding from a first amendment group so we can have other speakers on things like this. Maybe well hear you at Berry College, where I almost guarantee that you’ll at least be heard out :D.
True. One of the rare few. I think my main criterion for deciding if a school was worth considering would be whether or not it took Federal money. Nothing spoils education like Federal interference.
You said it. My hat's off to Hillsdale. I hope you subscribe to Imprimus. It's an excellent publication.
As a matter of fact, yes, I do. And, I agree.
So, do you think they have considered and are willing to face incoming rounds?
No one has to guess where the next crop of Brownshirts will come from.
“This is exactly what the fascists did in Germany in the 1930s.”
