Gun Control for weapons makers not users, for war mongers not hillbillies

Obama cried because the Connecticut schoolchildren were not Pakistani. Is that statement untrue?

So, no, the twenty schoolchildren killed at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown Connecticut were not Pakistani. That’s apparently what everyone is so upset about.

The lynching of Preston John Porter Jr. by a mob from Limon and Colo. Springs

UCSB Prof William Robinson pro-Semite

Wouldn’t you think it bad form for Israeli militants to behave like Nazis, while immunizing themselves with the self-righteous indignation that any criticism of their actions can simply be dismissed as “anti-Semitic?” Photographs and confessions emerging from the IDF’s atrocities … Continue reading
