Deranged Cyberstalker Deb Frisch Ph.D. Wins Colorado Holiday Vacation

    Jeff Goldstein shared the happy news Thursday that former psychology professor Deborah Frisch had been arrested in California for violating terms of her release from the Colorado prison system. If you don’t know who Dr. Frisch is, my post from October 2018 (“Deranged Ex-Professor Deborah Frisch Sentenced to Four Years in Prison”) has […]

The Cargo Cult Mentality

  One of the basic mechanisms of human culture is emulation, or as my parents used to call it, “Monkey see, monkey do.” Children will tend to emulate whatever behavior they see, which is how peer pressure operates: If your teenager’s friends start acting in ways that you disapprove, you can expect your child to […]

Report: ‘Black Hebrew Israelite’ Cult Connection to Jersey City Attack

  Early this morning I reported (“Jersey City Shooting ‘Targeted’ Jews, ‘Being Investigated as a Hate Crime’”) about suggestions of anti-Semitic motives in Tuesday’s shootout, and now we discover evidence that clearly indicates this was an act of terrorism: David Anderson was named as one of the two active shooters who kept police at bay […]

Jersey City Shooting ‘Targeted’ Jews, ‘Being Investigated as a Hate Crime’

  After police engaged in a gun battle Tuesday with two gunmen in Jersey City, liberals on Twitter spewed out their predictable rhetoric blaming the NRA, President Trump, and Republicans generally. Never mind that New Jersey has some of the most stringent anti-gun laws in America, and never mind that at the time, nothing was […]
