Airline Pilot Goes Full SJW, Ranting About Her Divorce and the Election

Posted on | February 13, 2017 | 2 Comments

Some people just can’t deal with stress:

A United Airlines pilot was removed from a San Francisco bound flight Saturday evening after using the plane’s intercom system to go on an erratic rant about her divorce and the recent presidential election.
The pilot, who showed up late to the plane set to depart from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, boarded the plane in normal street clothes instead of her United pilot uniform and told the passengers on the intercom from the front of the plane, “Sorry I’m late. The reason I’m late is I’m going through a divorce.”
She continued rambling, making passengers increasingly uncomfortable and pointing out an interracial couple sitting in first class, according to Buzzfeed. Passenger Randy Reiss said, “It quickly went from playful to scary.”
Witnesses said the pilot then commented on the 2016 presidential election, telling passengers, “Look, I don’t care if you voted for Trump or Clinton, they’re both a**holes.” She also said she was going to let her co-pilot fly the plane because he was a man, and offered passengers the opportunity to disembark the plane.
“So I’ll stop, and we’ll fly the plane. Don’t worry. I’m going to let my co-pilot fly it. He’s a man,” she laughed. “Okay, if you don’t feel safe, then get off the airplane. But otherwise we can go.”

She went full SJW. Never go full SJW.

NY Times Goes Full SJW

Posted on | February 13, 2017 | Comments Off on NY Times Goes Full SJW

Notice the adjectives and adverbs in this “news” article:

Staff members on Capitol Hill recall Stephen Miller, the 31-year-old White House adviser behind many of President Trump’s most contentious executive orders, as the guy from Jeff Sessions’s office who made their inboxes cry for mercy.
As a top aide to Mr. Sessions, the conservative Alabama senator, Mr. Miller dispatched dozens and dozens of bombastic emails to congressional staff members and reporters in early 2013 when the Senate was considering a big bipartisan immigration overhaul. Mr. Miller slammed the evils of “foreign labor” and pushed around nasty news articles on proponents of compromise, like Senator Marco Rubio of Florida.
One exhausted Senate staff member, forwarding a Miller-gram to a reporter at the time, wrote: “His latest. And it’s only 11:45 a.m.”
The ascent of Mr. Miller from far-right gadfly with little policy experience to the president’s senior policy adviser came as a shock to many of the staff members who knew him from his seven years in the Senate. A man whose emails were, until recently, considered spam by many of his Republican peers is now shaping the Trump administration’s core domestic policies with his economic nationalism and hard-line positions on immigration.
But his unlikely rise is emblematic of a White House where unconventional résumés rule — where the chief strategist is Stephen K. Bannon, until recently the head of the flame-throwing right-wing website Breitbart News, and the president himself is a former reality television star who before winning the nation’s highest office had never shown much interest in the arcana of governing.
Yet all three men are bound by a belief in an America-first economic policy that has suddenly moved from the fringes of American politics to the Oval Office.

You see that what is being discussed here — the “bipartisan” immigration bill of 2013 — is the corrupt “Gang of Eight” amnesty, in which Rubio betrayed the Tea Party conservatives who had helped him get elected to the Senate in 2010. Enforcing our immigration laws is, according to this New York Times editorial masquerading as a “news” article, a “far-right” fringe idea. Only “hard-line” “right-wing” people believe that immigrants should obey the laws of the United States. This piling-on of tendentious phrases does not inform the reader, but rather serves the propaganda function of demonizing Stephen Miller. Let the question be asked: When did the New York Times ever refer to any member of the Obama administration as “left-wing,” “far left” or “fringe”? The New York Times does not even acknowledge the existence of any “fringe” ideas or “extreme” people in the Democrat Party. Everything the Democrat Party does is “mainstream,” according to the New York Times, and everything Republicans do is wrong. The New York Times is partisan propaganda.

Is Breitbart News a “flame-throwing right-wing website”? OK, then ask yourself, when has the New York Times acknowledged in a news article the existence of any “flame-throwing left-wing website”? This they have never done, of course. Whatever the Left wants, the editors of the New York Times will endorse, and its reporters will publicize and promote.

They’ve gone full SJW. Never go full SJW.

‘She Told Me Her Teacher Was Molesting Her,’ Says Mother of Teenage Victim

Posted on | February 12, 2017 | Comments Off on ‘She Told Me Her Teacher Was Molesting Her,’ Says Mother of Teenage Victim

Camryn Zelinger molested a 14-year-old girl, police say.

Disturbing news from California:

The mother of a 14-year-old girl who was allegedly molested by a former teacher at a performing arts high school in California is speaking out.
“I’m a nosy mother, and I grabbed her phone, and I looked at texts from this teacher, sexting my baby over the phone, over the texts – just all this stuff,” the girl’s mother said.
The girl’s mother then reported the allegations to authorities.
32-year-old Camryn Zelinger was arrested Monday, February 6th at Encore High School for the Arts, where she worked, Riverside police said. She was booked into jail on suspicion of lewd or lascivious acts with a minor and annoying or molesting a child under 18 years old, according to a news release from the Riverside Police Department.
Zelinger has been fired from the high school.
The alleged “inappropriate physical contact and communications” took place over the “past few months,” according to a police news release.
Prior to learning of the alleged molestation, the student’s mother said she instinctively knew something was wrong, but that her daughter had been too scared to speak up.
“She wouldn’t tell me. She was too afraid. She kept saying, ‘Nothing, Mom. Nothing, Mom.’ But I knew something was wrong. When I finally found out something was going on, when she told me her teacher was molesting her — first period, eighth period, all throughout the day…” the woman said, crying. . . .
The family’s attorney told KTLA the girl’s relatives were “disturbed” by suggestions that the relationship was voluntary or consensual.
“This teacher used her position of power and trust to sort of manipulate this child into doing things that this child thought she had to do,” he said, noting the girl “is legally incapable of forming consent.”

Let’s make a few important points here:

  1. These are allegations, and Camryn Zelinger is to be presumed innocent unless and until she is convicted in a court of law;
    however
  2. Feminists never extend this presumption of innocence to any male college student accused of sexual misconduct;
  3. We do not know whether Camryn Zelinger is lesbian or bisexual, and this allegation that she molested a 14-year-old girl cannot be used to generalize about about gay teachers as potential predators;
    however
  4. Feminists routinely exploit stories about rape to make negative generalizations about heterosexual men as dangerous predators;
    and therefore
  5. No feminist will ever take notice of news reports about allegations of predatory sexual behavior by women, especially when teenage girls are molested by female teachers.

Feminism succeeds because so many journalists go along with this ideologically imposed double standard, where sex crimes committed by men are accepted as evidence of “rape culture,” but no one is permitted to make inferences from the crimes of female sex offenders.

“Well,” the feminist might say, “it’s not like there’s a pattern . . .”

Nina Scott molested a 16-year-old girl, police say.

Female Teacher Accused Of Having
Sexual Relationship With 16-Year-Old Girl
A Delaware County teacher is facing charges for allegedly having an inappropriate relationship with a female student.
Nina Scott, of Downingtown, worked at The Village — a court-ordered child-care facility in Radnor.
Police say the 28-year-old teacher admitted to having sexual contact with a 16-year-old girl at the school.
According to police, the victim said the relationship started when she passed a note to Scott that read, “How would you feel if I kissed you?” The victim told authorities Scott returned the note saying she would not tell anyone.
Police say the relationship lasted from February until October of last year.

But that’s only two cases. These are just random incidents, right?

Randi Zurenko molested two teenage girls, police say.

Female Catholic school teacher named Randi is
charged with TWO HUNDRED child sex offences
‘after sleeping with schoolgirls and
filming their lesbian trysts’
A female Catholic school teacher has been charged with more than 200 child sex offences after allegedly having sex with schoolgirls and filming their trysts.
Randi Zurenko from Millerstown, Pennsylvania, was arrested on Thursday.
Police believe the 33-year-old sexually abused two girls at Bishop McDevitt High School in Harrisburg hundreds of times between 2013 and 2016.
She is facing 13 counts of institutional sexual assault, 153 of sexual abuse of children, 33 of unlawful contact with minors, 20 of dissemination of obscene material to a minor and 13 counts of corruption of minors.

Well, sure, three stories, but it’s not like there’s a trend . . .

Kimberly Naquin molested a 16-year-old girl, police say.

Laura Garrigus molested a teenage girl, police say.

Teacher arrested after lesbian

— Feb. 9, 2016

Far be it from me to say that a mere half-dozen headlines are indicative of a trend, because there’s a lot more than a half-dozen:

  • In December 2015, former Missouri teacher Johnna Feazell, 48, was sentenced to seven years in prison for sexually molesting a 16-year-old girl she had known since the student was in seventh grade. Feazell, who had coached sports at a Webster County junior high school, was also convicted of tampering with evidence.
  • Also in December 2015, police in Austin, Texas, arrested former Bowie High School teacher Tiffany Howard, 41, on charges that she sexually molested a girl during a three-year period that began when the victim was 13. Howard had coached the girl in seventh grade.
  • Gymnastics coach Patricia Hermann, 48, was charged in October 2015 with sexually abusing two girls, ages 10 and 13. Police say Hermann molested the two girls while their Special Olympics team from Illinois was staying in a hotel in Cobb County, Georgia, for a competition.
  • In June 2015, former high school teacher and swim coach Leah Eames, 33, was sentenced to 30 months probation in Illinois after she pleaded guilty to having sex with a 16-year-old girl she coached.
  • In May 2015, a Michigan judge sentenced Erin Katharine MacDonald to a year in jail after the former Grant High School science teacher pleaded guilty to having sex with a teenage student.
  • In April 2015, Texas officials arrested Heather Lynn Packwood, 25, on charges that she sexually molested a girl who was a student at New Braunfels Christian Academy.
  • Geraldine Alcorn, 28, was arrested in March 2015 in Pittsburgh after police say she became obsessed with an 11-year-old student at Beechwood Elementary School, where Alcorn was a pre-kindergarten teacher.
  • Meghan Colleen Daugherty, 36, was charged in February 2015 with criminal sexual conduct with a minor in South Carolina. The arrest warrant said the Hillcrest Middle School physical education teacher committed sexual battery on a 14-year-old girl.
  • Shakyla Wilson, 22, was charged with one count of aggravated criminal sexual abuse after police in Naperville, Illinois, say she had sexual contact in February 2015 with a 14-year-old girl from Hill Middle School, where Wilson was volunteering as a girls basketball coach.
  • High school dance teacher Michelle Smith White, 37, of Durham, N.C., was charged in October 2014 with having sex with a 16-year-old female student. Police said White had the student’s name and initials tattooed on her body.
  • Dance teacher Sabrina Epps, 19, was arrested in October 2014 after police say she admitted having lesbian sex with a 14-year-old girl who was a student at the Tennessee studio where Epps taught.
  • Gaile Supp, 25, pleaded guilty in September 2014 to sexual battery, a third-degree felony. A former teacher at Clearfield High School in Utah, Supp had originally been charged with object rape, a first-degree felony, in April 2013 for allegedly committing a sexual act on an unwilling 17-year-old female student at her West Haven home.
  • California teacher Rebecca Eileen Diebolt, 35, was arrested in June 2014 after a woman told police that she and Diebolt had a four-year sexual relationship that began in 2004, when the victim was 15 and Diebolt was her language arts teacher and swim/water polo coach.
  • Dance teacher Nichol Marie Phelps, 30, was sentenced to prison in June 2014 after she pleaded guilty to having lesbian sex with a 15-year-old student at the Florida academy where Phelps taught.
  • Andrea Michelle Cardosa, 40, was charged with 16 felony counts in February 2014 after two former female students accused her of sexually molesting them. One accuser said Cardosa started having sex with her when she was only 12.
  • Tonya Drueppel was arrested in January 2014 on charges that she had sex with a middle-school girl beginning in October 2012, when the victim was 13.
  • Amanda Michelle Feenstra, 32, pleaded guilty in October 2013 to having sex with a 17-year-old girl who was a student at the Texas high school where Feenstra was a dance teacher.
  • Kelly O’Rourke, 42, was sentenced to 10 years in prison in October 2013 for having sex with a 16-year-old girl.
  • Linda Wallace was sentenced to prison in September 2013 after pleading guilty to having had a four-year sexual affair with a female student that began when the girl was 13.
  • Nicole Wooten was arrested in February 2013 on charges that she had sex with a girl in 2005 and 2006, when the victim was a 12-year-old eighth-grader.

That’s a pretty long list of completely random incidents, isn’t it? Should we do what feminists do, exploiting crime reports to foment fear? Or is it sufficient to occasionally notice that not all sex crimes are committed by men? Is your daughter safer with her high school basketball coach than she would be at a college fraternity party? And by the way, have you heard any feminists talk about the kidnapping, rape and murder of a 21-year-old Ohio State University student?

Why do you think feminists are ignoring this story? Is it because this story doesn’t advance the Democrat Party’s political agenda? Gosh, they seem so selective about which rape victims matter . . .

Rule 5 Sunday: Standing In The Shadow Of The Master

Posted on | February 12, 2017 | 3 Comments

— compiled by Wombat-socho

Those of you who aren’t interested in martial arts movies have probably not noticed the trilogy of Ip Man movies, based on the life of the Wing Chun master of the same name, who is perhaps most famous for having been Bruce Lee’s teacher. If so, you’ve not only missed out on some incredible fight scenes (for example, this scene from the first movie), but you’ve also missed out on the gorgeous Lynn Hung, who plays Ip Man’s wife Cheung Wing-Sing. One of the things that I especially like about these movies is that Miss Hung and Donnie Yen (who plays the title character) express a lot of emotion without necessarily saying much, as in this elevator fight scene from Ip Man 3. Thus, today’s appetizer.

The Left’s Dystopian Future

Posted on | February 12, 2017 | Comments Off on The Left’s Dystopian Future

Daniella Bova is a Catholic mom and author whose most recent e-novel, Cadáin’s Watch, is about a family “determined to live free” who are “hunted by the totalitarian bureaucracy,” but who “vow to resist oppression no matter the cost.” Her concerns for the future have been alleviated by Hillary Clinton’s defeat in last year’s election, but at her blog, Mrs. Bova notices how, once the shoe was on the other foot, suddenly the Left began yelling about their pain:

While perusing the twitter mobs on or about November 10 I happened to see a tweet from a leftist opining that he was finding it hard to get used to living in a dystopia.
This led me to type the words dystopia and dystopian into a twitter search. There I found many such tweets, all from Leftists (some of them authors) saying they were living in a dystopia.
This is still going on today. Try the search yourself and you’ll see the evidence.
Now please. It took only the election of Trump to make Liberals “feel” like they are living in a dystopia. On what basis?
Their candidate of choice lost the election.
Meanwhile, conservatives have just lived through 8 years of tyranny and abuse by Obama and his Leftist minions.
Our groups (Tea Party) were targeted by the IRS and declared to be “risky” by the Obama administration.
We were and are being forced to purchase a product by law (health insurance) which violates our rights under the Constitution.
Businesses were mobbed and attacked and sued by Leftists for refusing to bake a freaking cake. People’s lives were ruined, They were fired from their jobs for holding the “wrong” opinion on matters of conscience.
The list could on for two pages or more, and these pretentious Liberals actually believe they were inserted into a dystopia one day after their candidate lost an election?
What does that say about them?

You can read the whole thing. What does it say about Democrats? Clearly, they had big dreams for what they could accomplish with Hillary as president, and the intense rage of the Left’s disappointment shows how important “fundamentally changing the United States of America” really is to them. Losing their power to impose their “progressive” designs on our nation was, for them, like being a toddler deprived of a favorite toy.

My 2012 Election Night column for the American Spectator, “Doomed Beyond All Hope of Redemption,” was widely cited by leftist bloggers gloating over Barack Obama’s re-election. Yet the point of the column was about accepting the reality of defeat. When a football team loses a game, it is counterproductive to sit around complaining about the referees or doing some kind of “would have/could have/should have” second-guessing about the game. You lost. You failed. You were not good enough. If you had been good enough, all the bad breaks would not have been enough to defeat you. Good teams win and bad teams lose. The loser must accept the reality that he deserved to lose, and vow to train harder and improve himself so that next time, he can deserve victory.

Judging from the Left’s reaction to Hillary Clinton’s defeat, the Democrats are prepared to keep losing for a long, long time.

You can follow Danielle Bova on Gab and also follow me on Gab, and if you’re not on Gab yet, what are you waiting for?

Canada: Psycho Who Beheaded Man Does Not Pose ‘Significant Threat’ to Public

Posted on | February 11, 2017 | Comments Off on Canada: Psycho Who Beheaded Man Does Not Pose ‘Significant Threat’ to Public

 

In July 2008, 22-year-old Tim McLean Jr. boarded Greyhound Bus 1170 in Edmonton, Alberta, on his way back home to Winnipeg, Manitoba. He never made it, because six hours into the trip, another passenger boarded the bus: Weiguang “Vince” Li, a 40-year-old Chinese immigrant.

Li had immigrated from Beijing to Canada in 2001. Although he had studied computer science in China, Li’s inability to speak English meant he worked only in menial service jobs in Canada. He had been fired from his job at Wal-Mart four weeks before he boarded Greyhound Bus 1170, shortly before 7 p.m. July 30, 2008. About 8:30, Li murdered McLean:

According to witnesses, McLean was sleeping with his headphones on when the man sitting next to him suddenly produced a large knife and began stabbing McLean in the neck and chest. The bus driver pulled to the side of the road so that he and all the other passengers could exit the vehicle. The attacker then decapitated McLean and displayed his severed head to other passengers standing outside. The driver and two other men had attempted to rescue McLean but were chased away by Li, who slashed at them from behind the locked bus doors. Li then went back to McLean’s body and began severing other parts and consuming some of his victim’s flesh.

Psychiatrists said Li was suffering from schizophrenic delusions and, in a March 2009 verdict that shocked Canadians, Judge John Scurfield ruled that Li was “not criminally responsible” for McLean’s death. McLean’s father told reporters outside the courtroom:

“I have a fear knowing that he may get out one day. . . . My fear is that Vincent Li may get out and be released into the public one day, and I fear for the public. . . . This should not have happened.”

While being “treated” at a mental hospital, Li changed his name to Will Lee Baker. And now the psycho killer has been turned loose:

Vince Li, the man who was found not criminally responsible for beheading a man on a Greyhound bus in 2008, has been granted an absolute discharge.
The Manitoba Criminal Code Review Board ordered the discharge on Friday, saying Li, now known as Will Lee Baker, does not pose a significant safety threat.
Baker was found to have been suffering from untreated schizophrenia when he stabbed, beheaded and partially cannibalized Tim McLean, 22.
McLean’s mother, Carol de Delley, a vocal critic of Canada’s not criminally responsible laws and who believes Baker should remain in custody for life, posted to Facebook on Friday that she has nothing to say about his discharge.
“I have no comment today. I have no words,” de Delley wrote.
Baker was found not criminally responsible in 2009 and spent seven years in treatment at the Selkirk Mental Health Centre before being allowed to move to Winnipeg, where he was treated at Health Sciences Centre.
Last year, he was permitted to move into independent living, but he had to abide by certain rules, which included taking medications and attending counselling appointments.
According to a 1999 ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada, a review board must order an absolute discharge if a person doesn’t pose a significant threat to public safety.
The review board said it heard testimony from mental health professionals before concluding that the “weight of evidence” showed Baker is not a risk to the public. . . .

The Review Board “is of the opinion that the weight of evidence does not substantiate that Mr. Baker poses a significant threat to the safety of the public,” and I am of the opinion that every member of the Review Board is crazy and needs to be put into a mental institution.
