    'See Something,Say Something.'

    Here's some food for thought: it's a pretty long article, but the author brings out some good points.

    'See Something,Say Something.'

    The Dallas Police Dept requires at minimum number of college credits for all their applicants without previous experience: Dallas Police Department And from the NYC Police Dept's graduating class in Dec 2012: "Over 40 percent of this graduating class are college graduates; 467 have earned...

    Another Officer Down: No Outrage, No Riots...

    That's odd too. I'll bet there's dash cam video, they just haven't released it yet.

    The Trump Card...

    Not only Trump, but also Rand Paul comes to mind; and if the truth be known, I'll bet Jeb Bush would be extremely reluctant to send US troops anywhere. There's not nearly so many "warmongers" among the field as the MSM would have us believe. Of course they all get falsely portrayed by the media...

    Another Officer Down: No Outrage, No Riots...

    There's something we can agree on - odd to say the least that this trooper wasn't arranging accommodations for this convicted felon in the county's Turnkey Hotel after this stop and supposedly accurate ID of the driver. Speeding, reckless driving & driving on a suspended license should have been...

    Another Officer Down: No Outrage, No Riots...

    Play the race card if you choose and take all the personal cheap shots you want - it's worthless currency. It's been confirmed he was an activist in the Ferguson "protests" - riots, looting, whatever - and had a criminal record with an outstanding warrant for theft of lottery tickets as Muttly...

    Another Officer Down: No Outrage, No Riots...

    ...and no protests over this cold blooded murder of an officer trying to give somebody a break. "No good deed goes unpunished"; This quote has been attributed to Oscar Wilde and Claire Boothe Luce, and would certainly apply to the recent tragedy in KY when a rookie state trooper was shot and...

    Trusting Iranians...

    It started out that way. Why should we trust the Iranians? According to the Koran - which guides the mullahs who run their government - it's permissible for them to lie to those who would threaten life or property. Considering the adverse effects of the current sanctions imposed upon them, this...

    Trusting Iranians...

    It might help to understand exactly what Executive Agreements are as opposed to Treaties, the purpose for which they have historically been intended, and the circumstances under which they should be avoided as stated by the Founders themselves. The following quotes were written as though they...

    Just had a penitentiary flashback....

    Religious bigotry on display at its finest. "1 Judge not, that ye be not judged... 5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. - Matthew 7:1, 5 ;)

    Trusting Iranians...

    No - you don't "got it". You're starting off by putting words in my mouth, stuff I didn't say. It's not a matter of "hating Muslims", it's a matter of not trusting Iranians; big difference. Once again, that's what you said. It's a matter of not trusting Obama and his competence in foreign...

    Trusting Iranians...

    One can't help but wonder which conservative arguments you've read. Regardless, there are several basic points that make this a bad deal, not the least of which is the dismissal of the basic fact that the Iranian mullahocracy is the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism, dedicated to the...

    Trusting Iranians...

    According the opinion voiced in the article previously linked by Muttly, Congress may not even have to vote - if only the GOP leaders can muster the cahones to stand up to our lawless POTUS and kill this joke of a deal.

    Just had a penitentiary flashback....

    Apparently, it all depends on the issue. This applies not only elected officials, but appointed federal bureaucrats and cabinet members who selectively enforce the laws of the land, including those in ICE and IRS. Sanctuary cities are a case in point which have been ignored by the feds. Some...

    Just had a penitentiary flashback....

    For the sake of argument, let's assume that if public servants refuse to serve the public they should be removed from their positions for ignoring laws or shirking their duties regardless of their reasons. Problem is, the article quoted below points out that this seems to happen all the time but...

    Are we havng a Rosa Parks moment, sort of?

    The reason most ordinary Americans hold the "ultra-PC crowd in contempt" is that this group doesn't just want society to tolerate their deviant lifestyles - they demand that everyone embrace it and accept it as normal, and toward that end they rub their deviancy in our faces. Once again, Bruce...

    Are we havng a Rosa Parks moment, sort of?

    The damage done to our society by these PC accommodations to the tiny minority in our society who are sexually confused will be seen in the values of our next generation. Trying to represent them as normal is a denial of reality. The perfect example is Bruce Jenner; he is not normal, he's...

    Radical Rhetoric And Its Results

    This has to be one of the most disjointed, nonsensical comments ever. Please show where I EVER mentioned your daughter in this or any other post I've ever made. How you can misrepresent my criticism of Obama as an attack on you and your family is an exercise in the absurd, and a lame attempt to...

    It will be interesting to see if Gwen Iffil is allowed to play any kind of role in future political debates or interviews.
