Crazy People Are Dangerous: She Felt Like ‘She Needed to Hurt Somebody’

Posted on | April 11, 2019 | Comments Off on Crazy People Are Dangerous: She Felt Like ‘She Needed to Hurt Somebody’

 

Frightening news from New Jersey:

A South Jersey woman charged with torching her boyfriend’s house and displacing seven people told police she set the blaze because she was upset following a threesome she had with him and a second woman.
The Sunday night fire on Centre Street in Woodbury displaced residents from a home that had been converted into two apartments.
The boyfriend lived in one apartment and a family of six lived in the other, according to police. All escaped without injuries.
Two days after the blaze, Tasia S. Young, 33, of Woodbury, arrived at police headquarters and confessed to setting the fire because she felt “like she needed to hurt somebody,” according to her criminal complaint.
Young told police she was in a relationship with a man and that they had a sexual encounter with another woman on Saturday at his apartment.
When it was over, he summoned a cab for Young, but remained at his apartment with the other woman.
Young had been “going through a lot” and grew upset about her relationship, ultimately deciding to “burn his house down,” she told police.
She purchased lighter fluid and matches from a gas station on Sunday and traveled to the house, where she emptied the entire contents of the Zippo lighter fluid container on and under the front door. She lit a match, set a tissue on fire and tossed both on the lighter fluid.
Young told police she believed the other woman from the threesome was still in the apartment with her boyfriend at the time, though the report makes no mention of anyone else being in the apartment. . . .
She was charged with offenses including arson, aggravated assault, criminal mischief and multiple counts of endangering another person.

Look, I hate to be judgmental, but shouldn’t the fulfillment of wild erotic fantasies involve, y’know, attractive people? I mean, it was one thing when Hef was doing centerfold models two at a time at the Playboy mansion in Hollywood, but by the time this swinging lifestyle makes its way to New Jersey, it’s lost whatever excitement and glamour it once had. And then you call a cab for your girlfriend and she tries to kill you, so maybe you should just reconsider this whole “erotic fantasy fulfillment” thing before it gets you killed. Meanwhile, in Florida . . . 

 

Say hello to Oasis McLeod, 18, Jeniyah McLeod, 19, and Cecilia Young, 19. They had fun Wednesday in Pasco County:

Three naked women fresh from the shower at a Florida rest area told cops they were “air drying” in public when spotted by a witness who called 911, precipitating high-speed chases that resulted in the trio’s arrest on multiple felony charges.
The witness, cops say, reported that the women were at an Interstate 75 rest stop Wednesday morning, and that “all three of them” were “standing in the nude putting on suntan lotion.”
When a Florida Highway Patrol trooper arrived at the rest stop, the naked women explained that they had simply been “air drying” in the nude after showering. Before the cop could complete her investigation, however, the trio jumped into their Nissan Sentra and drove off on the highway.
The car was subsequently tracked to the parking lot of a convenience store that the trio — now apparently clothed — had entered. When a trooper sought to arrest one of the women leaving the store, the driver of the Nissan allegedly tried to strike him with the vehicle.
At that point, another woman exited the car with a pink baseball bat and approached the trooper, prompting another officer to ram the Nissan. The car drove away, prompting another police chase.
After cops deployed stop sticks that deflated the Nissan’s right side tires, a PIT maneuver brought the chase to a conclusion.
When the women refused to exit the auto, a cop broke out a window. The trio, arms interlocked, resisted arrest to the point that each was tasered before being taken into custody.
Investigators identified the car’s driver as Oasis Shakira McLeod, 18, and the passengers as Jeniyah McLeod and Cecilia Eunique Young, both 19. The women were charged with fleeing to elude, resisting arrest, aggravated assault, indecent exposure, and marijuana possession. The younger McLeod was also hit with a DUI count.

We need a new hashtag: #CrazyLivesMatter!

Jew-Haters Hold Pro-Hamas Conference in North Carolina — at Taxpayer Expense!

Posted on | April 11, 2019 | 1 Comment

 

Support for the terrorist Hamas regime in Gaza and demonization of Israel were major themes of a three-day conference last month at the University of North Carolina entitled, “Conflict Over Gaza: People, Politics and Possibilities.” Peter Reitzes of The Tower reports:

The large lobby area served as the central gathering place with vendor tables and catered snacks. It featured a large screen that played a photo collage on repeat, celebrating and glorifying Palestinian terrorism against Israel. Conference attendees continually saw photographs of Palestinians attacking Israel with incendiary devices . . .
Nowhere were there photographs of Israeli children hiding and crying in shelters as rockets from Gaza exploded around them.
There was a table with hundreds of free conference t-shirts that prominently said “Gaza,” which conference staff were busy folding and handing out. There were hundreds of free tote bags, as well, with regular announcements throughout the day to get your free gear. . . . When the UNC and Duke Consortium for Middle East Studies applied for and received a federal grant through the Department of Education (DOE) worth $235,000, I wonder if the federal government imagined that free Gaza “swag” was part of the plan.
There was a “UNC Student Stores” bookstore setup with more than 20 titles that shared central themes of anti-Israel and Hamas apologetics. . . .
The book store attendant informed me that the Conference Director chose the books being sold at the event.

You can read the rest of that, as well as Part 2 and Part 3 of Reitzes’ report on the conference at UNC, including the fact that conference organizer Shai Tamari forebade attendees to record the proceedings. So they sent the bill to U.S. taxpayers, but U.S. citizens cannot be allowed to see what they paid for? Jew-haters don’t want any video cameras around to record them avowing support for Islamic terrorism, I guess.

Here’s video by Ami Horowitz:

‘Birth Strike’ Is a Stupid Idea (And We Should Encourage Liberals to Embrace It)

Posted on | April 10, 2019 | Comments Off on ‘Birth Strike’ Is a Stupid Idea (And We Should Encourage Liberals to Embrace It)

The world needs more people like you — yes, you, personally.

Why do I say that with such confidence? Because:

  1. You are a highly literate person;
    and
  2. You are reading this blog.

Stupid people don’t spend their leisure hours reading about politics, culture and current events, and since you’re reading this particular blog, you’re probably someone who shares my worldview. You are therefore obviously a superior sort of person, and the world would be a better place if there were more people like you. So please, reproduce — procreate, breed, spawn, be fruitful and multiply — in sufficient numbers to ensure that the world is supplied with more of your excellent DNA. Of course, you may be past your reproductive prime, in which case you should encourage your children (or nieces and nephews) to do their part on behalf of supplying the world with more hereditary excellence.

Liberals, on the other hand, are inferior — degenerate, perverse, misguided and ungodly — and such people should be discouraged from reproducing. Fortunately, most liberals are either ugly or homosexual (or both), and are therefore steadily marching toward extinction. However, it’s possible to accelerate this process, and Katharine Schwab is helping.

 

Ms. Schwab is a 2015 Stanford graduate who writes for Fast Company, and produced a video endorsing the idea that because of “climate change,” people should stop having babies — the so-called “birth strike” movement, founded by a British feminist named Blythe Pepino.

 

Strangely enough, while endorsing this genocidal neo-Malthusian idea, Ms. Schwab makes a startling confession:

“The idea that having fewer kids can help the planet is starting to catch on. . . . It’s the single biggest thing you can do as an individual to lessen your impact on the climate, but will people do it? As a young woman who personally wants to have a family in the future, it’s a really tough decision.”

What? A Stanford-educated feminist wants a family? Doesn’t she know the family is a structure of heteropatriarchal oppression?

On the other hand, Ms. Schwab is probably not heterosexual — she is a Stanford-educated feminist, right? — so when she says she “wants to have a family in the future,” she probably means some kind of IVF arrangement with her lesbian partner, but that’s an expensive resource-intensive process, what with liquid nitrogen to freeze the donor sperm, etc., and that can’t be very good for the environment.

No, Ms. Schwab, if you really believe all that climate-change stuff, you shouldn’t have children, and it’s imperative that you spread this message to all your liberal friends. Basically, if you didn’t vote for Trump, don’t have children. Meanwhile, the Trump supporters will keep making babies the old-fashioned heteropatriarchal way, and in another 50 or 60 years, our great-great-grandchildren will ask: “Grandma, what’s a ‘liberal’?”

Our granddaughters will answer: “Well, a long time ago, when Donald Trump was president, ‘liberals’ were people who didn’t vote for him. But then the liberals decided to stop having babies, so they went extinct.”

“Why did they stop having babies?”

“Because of a video a liberal woman made in 2019.”

The “birth strike” is an excellent plan, insofar as it will encourage environmentalists, feminists and other liberal wackos to eliminate themselves from the gene pool, thus providing a decisive Darwinian advantage to conservatives. By the time it’s decisively proven that “climate change” was just another liberal fraud, like the Jussie Smollett hoax, all the environmentalists will be too old to have children, and thus the Trump voters will inherit the earth. It’s brilliant.

“Conservatives and Fundamentalists are Noticing Progressive Christians.”

Posted on | April 10, 2019 | Comments Off on “Conservatives and Fundamentalists are Noticing Progressive Christians.”

by Smitty

Today in folly: Buttigieg is a symbol for a rising Christian left
The mail on this was answered early:

Mat 7:21-23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

It’s one thing to make mistakes. It’s quite another to set oneself up as a leader, and then proceed to teach others falsely.
Lord, have mercy on Mayor Pete. Give him an epiphany where he can see what he needs to see, and do that which is proper.

Google Is Lying, Again

Posted on | April 10, 2019 | 1 Comment

 

Gosh, it’s almost as if they’re being evil, or something:

The American Spectator is on a list of sites “blacklisted” in Google search results, according to documents obtained by the Daily Caller.
Google created an “XPA news blacklist” to suppress “fake news, hate speech [and] conspiracy theories” in its search results, the Daily Caller’s J. Arthur Bloom reported in an exclusive Tuesday. This practice, approved by Google’s Trust & Safety team, contradicts congressional testimony by Google CEO Sundar Pichai, who denied that the company manipulates its search results. Bloom quotes the internal Google document as saying the blacklist would be used to “filter problematic sites that violate the good neighbor and misrepresentation policies.” According to the document:

The beginning of the workflow starts when a website is placed on a watchlist which is used for monitoring of sites to determine if they violate the Good Neighbor Policy. This watchlist is maintained and stored by Ares with access restricted to policy & enforcement specialists working on the Good Neighbor Policy. … The investigation of the watchlist is done in the tool Athena, the Ares manual review tool, and intakes signals from Search, Webspan, and Ares in order to complete reviews. … Once a domain is determined to be violating the misrepresentation policy or the Good Neighbor Policy, such patterns are then added to deceptive_news_blacklist_domains.txt by the Trust & Safety team.

Sites targeted by the Google blacklist include not only The American Spectator, but also Jim Hoft’s popular Gateway Pundit site and the Conservative Tribune. Google made no explanation of how it was determined that these sites were determined to be “deceptive” or engaged in “misrepresentation,” as compared to, say, CNN, which has spent the past two years promoting a false “Russian collusion” conspiracy theory.

Just for the record, The American Spectator is more than 50 years old, and it has never promoted “fake news,” hate, or conspiracy theories.

Ultra-Orthodox Jews Boost Netanyahu to Fifth Term as Israeli Prime Minister

Posted on | April 10, 2019 | Comments Off on Ultra-Orthodox Jews Boost Netanyahu to Fifth Term as Israeli Prime Minister

 

Because Jews in America are mostly secular and mostly Democrat (71% voted for Hillary), it might surprise many Americans to know that most Jews in Israel are deeply religious and right-wing:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clinched a clear victory early Wednesday morning in Israel’s general elections.
With some 97 percent of votes in Tuesday’s contest counted, his Likud party was tied with Blue and White, but his right-wing/ultra-Orthodox bloc held a decisive lead and Netanyahu was thus safely en route to forming a majority governing coalition.
With more than four million votes counted as of 9 a.m., Likud had snagged 26.27% of the vote, or 35 seats in the 120-seat legislature — the party’s best result since the 2003 election (when it won 38 seats under Ariel Sharon), and its best under Netanyahu.
Likud’s main rival in the election, the Blue and White party led by Benny Gantz and Yair Lapid, won 25.94% of the vote, which would also give it 35 seats, but had insufficient support from other parties to prevent Netanyahu staying in power for what will be a fifth term.
In actual numbers, only some 14,000 votes separated the two biggest parties.
No other party appeared to break double digits in number of seats.
With his Likud at 35, and five right-wing and ultra-Orthodox parties managing to get some 30 seats together, Netanyahu could confidently work to form a government similar to his current right-wing coalition, with a solid 65 seats.
On the other side of the fence, four left-wing and Arab parties combined for just 20 seats, putting them en route to the opposition along with Blue and White.
Coming in at a surprising third and fourth places behind Likud and Blue and White were the ultra-Orthodox parties Shas and United Torah Judaism, with 6.10% (8 seats) and 5.90% (8 seats) respectively.

You know what would also surprise many Americans? While Democrats and the media routinely smear the 62.9 million Trump voters as anti-Semitic “white nationalists,” President Trump is actually more popular in Israel than he is in the United States. Israelis value our support and see Trump’s “Make America Great Again” message as a repudiation of the weakness of Obama’s policy. When America is weak, Israel is vulnerable.

Guess what? Israel’s enemies know this. That’s why I don’t care how often the Left in America smears conservatives as anti-Semites. If we make America stronger, Israel is safer. That’s the bottom line, in terms of realpolitik, so vote Republican, and to hell with the haters.

Oh, by the way, Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Hamas) described the 9/11 attacks as “some people did something.” Another reason to vote Republican.
