Cruel But Fair

Leftist Bullying, IRS Style

2013-05-21T19:40:00.000-04:00

Just as there is leftist bullying in the media as explained by Ben Shapiro, it exists in government bureaucracies too. The IRS being caught red-handed targeting conservatives groups is the latest example. It's also alarming, to think that conservative thought would be attacked by a supposedly neutral bureaucracy. No one apparently told anyone to do it, but it got done.

If honest, middle of the road liberals don't stand up and denounce this failure (and probable crime), they are guilty of disowning the concept of democracy itself. Guilty, as well, of an unbelievable level of stupidity.

I've said it before, non-wealth producers (liberals) cannot be trusted with political power. They invariably use it to accustom more and more people to the idea of riding on other people's backs as government employees. They are the moochers, and they've figured out how to control government without producing any wealth themselves.

With the IRS scandal, it's almost as though the moochers (liberals) have told themselves that "since we've conquered politics, why not use the tax department to suppress dissent?"

Bullies: How the Left Silences Opposition

2013-03-31T19:32:00.000-04:00

Ben Shapiro has a new book out discussing the bully tactics of the left, which is to essentially paint the right as awful people without value. As he also says it only works with the complicity of the media which pretends to be neutral but acts to reinforce the "conservative don't care" message.

This problem is compounded by the fact that the average voter has only the most fleeting familiarity with the facts. They instead prefer to consume the slanted pablum the media offers.

The left’s favorite bully tactic is painting its opposition as morally deficient and unworthy of being part of the conversation. The left uses this tactic on virtually every topic. Sequestration? It turns out that those dastardly right-wingers just want to hurt first responders and teachers. Gun control? Those conservatives just don’t care about dead kids. Gay marriage? Conservatives hate homosexuals. Once you paint your opposition as morally bankrupt, you don’t have to win the debate. You win by default. That’s the basis of the political correctness movement.

***

But the left couldn’t get away with any of this without the media. The media are the greatest of all the leftist bullies, because they play at objectivity while sliding the knife in as deep as humanly possible. By lying to the American people about their disinterested reportage, they are able to convince Americans that people of good heart cannot take conservatives seriously. That’s a damaging message.

Islam's Rise and the West's Denial

November 20, 2012

William Kilpatrick on what the spread of militant Islam means for the future of the West.

William Kilpatrick is an author and lecturer who taught for many years at Boston College and whose articles on Islam have appeared in numerous publications, including Investor's Business Daily, FrontPage Magazine, the National Catholic Register, and World magazine. He has written several books, including Psychological Seduction and Why Johnny Can't Tell Right from Wrong, and his most recent book, Christianity, Islam and Atheism: The Struggle for the Soul of the West, will be released next week from Ignatius Press. Kilpatrick recently spoke with Catholic World Report about Islam and its growing significance for the West.

CWR: You begin by noting that, yes, there is some common ground between Christianity and Islam, but the differences are far more important. What are the most important differences between the two religions?

William Kilpatrick: Beneath the surface similarities lie important and largely irreconcilable differences. Islam rejects the Trinity, the Incarnation, the Crucifixion, and the Resurrection. In fact, associating partners with Allah—as Christians do—is considered the very worst sin. Chapter nine, verse 30 of the Koran says, “the Christians call Christ the son of Allah…Allah’s curse be on them: how they are deluded away from the truth.”

******

The two faiths also differ sharply in their vision of paradise. Heaven for Christians means union with God and the fellowship of the saints. For Muslims heaven means union with 72 “high-bosomed” and eternally youthful virgins. That’s for males, of course; the Koran is unclear about what sort of heaven women will enjoy. These differing views of paradise have very serious practical implications in the here and now. The Islamic version of paradise creates quite an incentive for young men to try to get there as quickly as possible. And, according to Islamic tradition, the only sure route is by “killing and being killed in the cause of Allah.” Take Mohamed Atta. Due to an airline mistake his luggage was left behind in Boston on the day of the 9/11 flight. When authorities later opened it they found a wedding suit, a bottle of cologne, and a letter expressing his anticipation of marriage to his 72 heavenly wives. As Richard Weaver wrote, “ideas have consequences.”

*********

Kilpatrick: One thing that the West doesn’t grasp is that Islam is a political religion with political ambitions. Omar Ahmad, the co-founder of the Council on American Islamic Relations, has said that “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith but to be dominant. The Koran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.” Numerous Islamic authorities have expressed similar sentiments. The supposedly moderate Imam Feisal Rauf, the initiator of the Ground Zero mosque project, wrote an article for the Huffington Post containing the observation, “What Muslims want is a judiciary (in the US) that ensures that the laws are not in conflict with the Qur`an and the Hadith.” What he means is that US law must be brought in line with Islamic sharia law. Since very many provisions of sharia law are considered criminal under US law, that would mean the overthrow of much of our legal code.

************

According to a popular Muslim poem:

The mosques are our barracks,

the domes our helmets

the minarets our bayonets

And the faithful our soldiers

Many Muslims think of Islam not only as a religion but also as an army—an army with a mission of subjugation. That’s why the penalty for apostasy is death. Just as a deserter from an army in time of war may be punished with the death penalty, so also a deserter from the army of Islam.

*********

If America is eventually subjugated, however, it won’t be the result of armed jihad, but of cultural jihad—the steady incremental advance of sharia law through agitation, propaganda, lawfare, political activism, and infiltration of key governmental and educational institutions. Many Muslim leaders have made it plain that they plan to subjugate America under Islam. We should take them seriously.

The Piranha Brothers

2012-10-26T23:29:00.000-04:00

I saw this article in the Toronto Sun about a British gangster, Charlie Richardson, who'd just died at the age of 78.

It says that in the 1960's, Richardson, a scrap metal dealer, was also the Torture Gang boss. The story cites ways he punished those who crossed him; one technique Charlie used to enforce his will was to nail people to the floor. His rivals were twin gangster brothers Ronnie and Reggie Kray.

After reading the story I figured that Charlie, Ronnie, and Reggie were collectively the inspiration for The Python's sketch about brutal gangster twins, the Piranha Brothers.

I'm guessing they mixed up the characters to avoid legal action AND personal injury . They were probably too scared to even mention "taking a shirt from Charlie".

I love the irony in Charlie/Dinsdale's profession of innocence at the end of the article.

* * * *

Here's an excerpt from the actual script of Monty Python's episode 14, The Piranha Brothers (with added photos):

Episode Fourteen

Colour code: John Cleese - Michael Palin - Eric Idle - Graham Chapman - Terry Jones - Terry Gilliam - Carol Cleveland

Cut to Presenter at desk in usual grey suit and floral tie.

Presenter	Good evening. On 'Ethel the Frog' tonight we look at violence. The violence of British Gangland. Last Tuesday a reign of terror was ended when the notorious Piranha brothers, Doug and Dinsdale (photo of same),after one of the most extraordinary trials in British legal history, were sentenced to four hundred years imprisonment for crimes of violence. Tonight Ethel the Frog examines the rise to power of the Piranhas, the methods they used to subjugate rival gangs and their subsequent tracking down and capture by the brilliant Superintendent Harry 'Snapper' Organs of Q Division. Doug and Dinsdale Piranha were born, on probation, in this small house in Kipling Road, Southwark, the eldest sons in a family of sixteen. Their father Arthur Piranha, a scrap-metal dealer and TV quizmaster, was well known to the police, and a devout Catholic. In January 1928 he had married Kitty Malone, (old wedding photo) an up-and-coming Eastend boxer. Doug was born in February 1929 and Dinsdale two weeks later; and again a week after that. Their next door neighbour was Mrs April Simmel.
	Exterior in street; interviewer and Mrs Simmel. Line of gas men behind.
Mrs Simmel	Kipling Road was a typical sort of Eastend street, people were in and out of each other's houses with each other's property all day. They were a cheery lot.
Interviewer	Was it a terribly violent area?
Mrs Simmel	(laughs deprecatingly) Oh ho......yes. Cheerful and violent. I remember Doug was very keen on boxing, until he learned to walk, then he took up putting the boot in the groin. Oh he was very interested in that. His mother had such trouble getting him to come in for his tea. He'd be out there putting his little boot in, you know, bless him. You know kids were very different then. They didn't have their heads filled with all this Cartesian dualism.
	Cut to school playground.
Voice Over	At the age of fifteen Doug and Dinsdale started attending the Ernest Pythagoras Primary School in Clerkenwell.
	Pan to show Anthony Viney and interviewer with stick mike.
Interviewer	Anthony Viney. You taught the Piranha brothers English. What do you remember most about them?
	He fails to point stick mike at Viney (graham) who answers. However, when the interviewer poses the next question he points the stick mike to Viney as he does so. This continues, with the mike always pointing to the one who is not talking while Viney relates a fascinating tale complete with large riveting gestures.
Interviewer	...Anthoney Viney.
	Cut to presenter.
Presenter	When the Piranhas left school they were called up but were found by an Army Board to be too unstable even for National Service. Denied the opportunity to use their talents in the service of their country, they began to operate what they called 'The Operation'. They would select a victim and then threaten to beat him up if he paid the so-called protection money. Four months later they started another operation which the called 'The Other Operation'. In this racket they selected another victim and threatened not to beat him up if hedidn't pay them. One month later they hit upon 'The Other Other Operation'. In this the victim was threatened that if he didn't pay them, they would beat him up. This for the Piranha brothers was the turning point.
	Cut to Superintendent OrgansSUBTITLE: 'HARRY "SNAPPER" ORGANS'
Organs	Doug and Dinsdale Piranha now formed a gang, which the called 'The Gang' and used terror to take over night clubs, billiard halls, gaming casinos and race tracks. When they tried to take over the MCC they were for the only time in their lives, slit up a treat. As their empire spread however, we in Q Division were keeping tabs on their every move by reading the colour supplements.
Presenter	A small-time operator who fell foul of Dinsdale Piranha was Vince Snetterton-Lewis.
	Cut to Vince in a chair in a nasty flat.
Vince	Well one day I was sitting at home threatening the kids, and I looked out of the hole in the wall and sees this tank drive up and one of Dinsdale's boys gets out and he comes up, all nice and friendly like, and says Dinsdale wants to have a talk with me. So he chains me to the back of the tank and takes me for a scrape round to Dinsdale's. And Dinsdale's there in the conversation pit with Doug and Charles Paisley, the baby crusher, and a couple of film producers and a man they called 'Kierkegaard', who just sat there biting the heads of whippets and Dinsdale sayd 'I hear you've been a naughty boy Clement' and he splits me nostrils open and saws me leg off and pulls me liver out, and I said my name's not Clement and then he loses his temper and nails my head to the floor.
Interviewer	(off-screen) He nailed your head to the floor?
Vince	At first, yeah
	Cut to presenter.
Presenter	Another man who had his head nailed to the floor was Stig O' Tracey.
	Cut to another younger more cheerful man on sofa.
Interviewer	Stig, I've been told Dinsdale Piranha nailed your head to the floor.
Stig	No, no. Never, never. He was a smashing bloke. He used to give his mother flowers and that. He was like a brother to me.
Interviewer	But the police have film of Dinsdale actually nailing your head to the floor.
Stig	Oh yeah, well - he did that, yeah.
Interviewer	Why?
Stig	Well he had to, didn't he? I mean, be fair, there was nothing else he could do. I mean, I had transgressed the unwritten law.
Interviewer	What had you done?
Stig	Er... Well he never told me that. But he gave me his word that it was the case, and that's good enough for me with old Dinsy. I mean, he didn't want to nail my head to the floor. I had to insist. He wanted to let me off. There's nothing Dinsdale wouldn't do for you.
Interviewer	And you don't bear him any grudge?
Stig	A grudge! Old Dinsy? He was a real darling.
Interviewer	I understand he also nailed your wife's head to a coffee table. Isn't that right Mrs O' Tracey?
	Camera pans to show woman with coffee table nailed to head.
Mrs O' Tracey	Oh, no. No. No.
Stig	Yeah, well, he did do that. Yeah, yeah. He was a cruel man, but fair
	Cut back to Vince.
Interviewer	Vince, after he nailed your head to the floor, did you ever see him again
Vince	Yeah.....after that I used to go round his flat every Sunday lunchtime to apologize and we'd shake hands and then he'd nail my head to the floor
Interviewer	Every Sunday?
Vince	Yeah but he was very reasonable about it. I mean one Sunday when my parents were coming round for tea, I asked him if he'd mind very much not nailing my head to the floor that week and he agreed and just screwed my pelvis to a cake stand.

The episode ends with Luigi Vercotti and his high class escort agency (the Chinese watch ). He describes Doug as more fearsome than Dinsdale.

"What did Doug do?"

" He used ... sarcasm."

Islamic Tolerance In Action

2012-08-20T21:07:00.000-04:00

ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Christian girl was sent to a Pakistani prison after being accused by her furious Muslim neighbors of burning pages of the Islamic holy book, the Quran, in violation of the country's strict blasphemy laws.

Published: August 20, 2012

...

"Police put the girl in jail for 14 days on Thursday after neighbors said they believed a Christian girl had burned pages of a Quran, gathering outside her house in a poor outlying district of Islamabad, said police officer Zabi Ullah. He suggested she was being held for her protection."

...

"it (blasphemy laws) has been exploited by individuals to settle personal scores, to grab land, to violate the rights of non-Muslims, to basically harass them," said the head of the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, Zora Yusuf."

...

"… one police officer familiar with the girl's case said the matter would likely be dropped once the investigation is completed and the atmosphere is defused, saying there was "nothing much to the case." He did not want to be identified due to the sensitivity of the case."

………………………………..

These Muslims are such ignorant, savage people that they have no more clue about what they've been taught to hate than a chimpanzee might:

"One police official, Qasim Niazi, said when the girl was brought to the police station, she had a shopping bag that contained various religious and Arabic-language papers that had been partly burned, but there was no Quran.

"Some residents claimed they actually saw burnt pages of Quran — either at the local mosque or at the girl's house. Few people in Pakistan actually speak or read Arabic, so often assume that anything they see with Arabic script is believed to be from the Quran, sometimes the only Arabic-language book people have seen."

UPDATE Sept 5/12

I've read a couple of stories recently that claimed a local religious zealot may have planted pages from the Koran on this poor girl as a way to frame a Christian and get the rest of the Christians out of his area. Could Islam BE any more hateful???

I don't give a damn how tolerant of Canada's culture our "Canadian" Muslims pretend to be (and it IS pretending). I will not accept their phony claims of patriotism until they admit the failure of their religion to become humane in their home countries. Not only admit it but vocally condemn it, and actively work to undermine it. Otherwise they aren't real Canadians; they're just "former practising women and minority abusers" happily preserving their distasteful roots in our country. We don't have to look far to find western muslims who murder their children in the name of their religion.

Until Muslims in the West begin to loudly denounce the barbaric practises and inhumane treatment of their former fellow citizens with the same zeal that they criticize their host countries' cultures, they are undeserving of respect.

Liberalism: A Leading Cause of Death

2012-06-04T21:32:00.003-04:00

Three great pieces on the Eaton Centre shooting in Toronto. Liberalism has created for us a society that turns a blind eye to crime mitigation, the reasons for it and sources of it.

The sub-human gangster that did it was merely eliminating another gang rival. Another failed seed of the liberal society we live in. The police don't get it when they call him "some idiot" No, he's NOT just "some idiot". He's gangster, just released on us after of 5 years in jail, for god's sake! What a great prison/justice system we have here. Liberalism is a leading cause of death in Canada.

All liberals care about is unlimited jobs and money to "study" crime forever without actually reducing it. And of course the conservative minded, wealth creating portion of the population pays for everything.

Acid Throwing: Another Feature of Islam

2012-03-28T21:30:00.003-04:00

Fakhra Younus, a victim of Islamic acid-throwing, recently committed suicide. This poor Pakistani woman had her identity taken away by the sub-human that is her ex husband. He was taught by Islam that it was ok to throw acid in the face of your ex wife.

She did it to protest Pakistan's complete lack of respect for and protection of women.

Her nose was almost completely melted and she has since undergone 39 separate surgical procedures to repair her disfigured face over the past decade. The horrific attack also burned off her hair, fused her lips, blinded her in one eye, destroyed her left ear and melted her breasts.

Her ex husband Bilal Khar was arrested in 2002 and charged with attempted murder following the attack, only to be released on bail after five months.

More than 8,500 acid attacks, forced marriages and other forms of violence against women were reported in Pakistan in 2011, according to The Aurat Foundation, a women's rights organization.

Islam's heart is a collection of racist, sexist, and murderous beliefs, and Pakistan is the most barbaric and useless country on earth.

Wife beating, a feature of Islam since 1280

2012-03-25T22:30:00.007-04:00

Liberals, please get your heads out of your asses about Islam once and for all:

What about this story about a book that seriously discusses wife beating and abuse? Sold by muslims in a Toronto muslim book store, and conveniently available at eBay and Islamic websites:

"A Gift For Muslim Couple"

In the book’s opening pages, it is written that “it might be necessary to restrain her with strength or even to threaten her.”

Then this gem later:

“the husband should treat the wife with kindness and love, even if she tends to be stupid and slow sometimes.”

Oh, but none of it is true!!! Muslims say so! They adore their women! They're the Religion of Peace® after all!

It's another example of how, deep down, and on the "street" Muslims STILL aren't getting it — that their abhorrent practices and abusive treatment of women are not acceptable here. They all need to attend re-education classes before we let them in. Liberals, democrats, and the rest of the not-so-intelligentsia need to admit that wife beating and general abuse of women is a mainstream feature of Islam, not the fringe behaviour they keep saying it is.

Canadian author Tarek Fatah said this:

"I wouldn’t say it’s hate, but it is inciting men to hit women," he told the Toronto Sun. "This is new to you, but the Muslim community knows that this is widespread, that a woman can be beaten. Muslim leaders will deny this, but..."

Remember Aqsa Parvez of Brampton? How about the Shafia family that murdered four women?

The man who found the book that started this story said this:

"At first, I thought that it is incredible that this kind of thing can be found in Canada,” said (Eric) Brazau. “And then I thought, radical Islam is not coming to Canada, it is already here.”

Apparently it's based on writings from a wife-beating Muslim born in 1280, so it's not like this is some one-off, "loose cannon" type Muslim. "Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi was born in 1280 A.H. in the village of Thana Bowan."

Muslims have been reading and following crap like this for hundreds of years:

Lifting the Veil

2012-03-23T21:17:00.002-04:00

Niqābs, burqas, head scarves; call them what you will, the very fact that they exist outside of Muslim countries is a cause for concern. The problem with the religious justification for wearing head scarves is that it effectively gives a person licence to obscure their identity without having to justify the concealment. There have been documented cases from the UK and Australia of wanted criminals – even terrorists – using Muslim head scarves to hide from the police officers searching for them.

Niqab

The Justification

Like many issues we face as a society, the cause of this legal grey area is the interpretation of Islamic religious principles. A significant part of Islamic teachings are to do with what is known as “hajib,” or the requirement to dress while taking into account a specifically defined sense of modesty in your appearance.

Contrary to popular belief however, there is no specific passage in the Qur’an that explicitly stipulates that women must wear a head scarf. This has been officially stated by the spokesperson for the Muslim Canadian Congress, Farzana Hassan, who also explained that it was a practice rooted in pre-Islamic Middle Eastern culture. In other words, people use religious faith to justify an exploitable mode of dress from the 5^th Century. In addition to this, the definition of hajib also makes a passing and matter-of-fact reference to slaves, further calling into question its relevance in the modern world.

Burka

Citizenship Requirement

On December 12 2011, the Canadian government issued a ban on wearing any kind of face coverings when people take their oath of citizenship upon being officially sworn in as new Canadians. If the requirement is subsequently refused the prospective citizens may take the oath at another ceremony, but this allowance is only applicable once. The alternative is that they remain as permanent residents rather than full citizens.

Immigration minister Jason Kenney stated that he has received complaints from the citizenship court judges that when a person’s face is covered in such a manner, it can sometimes be difficult to tell whether or not they are actually reciting the oath, or indeed that they are the person in question required to recite it in the first place.

He defended his decision by asserting that “Canadian citizenship is not just about the right to carry a passport and to vote,” and that it is a “public declaration that you are joining the Canadian family and it must be taken freely and openly.”

He also pre-emptively responded to any accusations of religious discrimination by pointing out that Muslim women are not required not to cover their faces when they perform the Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca that is the final of the Five Pillars of Islam and a requirement for all Muslims to carry out at least once in their lifetime. If such a holy obligation does not require the concealment of a person’s face, then being unable to do so when reciting a single oath should be trivial in comparison.

British Development

A recent story from England reported that a Muslim woman wearing a niqāb was told to step down from jury service after refusing to remove her veil. The judge presiding over the trial – in which the defendant was standing accused of attempted murder – considered that being able to clearly see the facial expressions of the jury would be important in ensuring their impartiality. Since the woman stated that she would prefer not to remove her veil if possible, she was asked to step down.

The UK’s Judicial Studies Board states that requiring a woman to remove her veil could have "significant impact on that woman’s sense of dignity," and could serve to "exclude and marginalise” her. Their thoughts on whether or not those very same issues are also applicable against the requirement to wear a veil in the first place are not commented on.

It follows a related incident a few years ago when a woman serving on the jury of a murder trial was caught listening to an MP3 player under her head scarf.

Hijab

French Law

In France the views on Islamic dress are way ahead of the rest of the world.

In 2004 a law was passed that expressly forbids the wearing of any “conspicuous religious symbol” in its schools, including head scarves. The law was introduced as part of laïcité, the requirement of state and religion to remain separate from one another.

The law has progressed over time and it is now illegal to wear a burqa in public anywhere in France, and anyone caught doing so faces a fine of €150. If a man forces his wife to wear a burqa in public, the fine can be as much as €30,000, in addition to up to a year in prison.

Mass Murder in Syria, with the approval of China, Russia, and Western liberals

2012-03-14T20:57:00.000-04:00

A French doctor named Jacques Beres, who smuggled himself into Syria, says what he saw was "mass murder. It's totally unfair. It's unjustifiable."

The story also quotes a woman who'd been imprisoned and tortured, and she said there were no foreigners or terrorists fighting the government in Syria. 20 year old Hadeel Kouki also said there were nearly 10,000 dead now. People killed by their own government. And still the Chinese and the Russians defend Assad's butchery against his own people.

Fuck those commie bastards and the spineless westerners who call themselves liberals. The UN and other assorted moochers would rather ignore the problem than get tough. These people have no morals. It's impossible for them to oppose true tyranny. Instead, they stick to criticizing their own countries.

Fatal flaw in nude body scanners

2012-03-10T20:51:00.000-05:00

A blogger, Jonathan Corbett, has demonstrated how metal objects can be carried through those demeaning full body scanners they have at airports. They don't find metallic objects like the old metal detectors did. They simply see them as black images against your pasty white nude body. However, if the object is hanging beside your body, the scanners will not pick it up because the background of the body scan is completely black (see sample scan below).

Corbett just sewed a pocket to the side of his shirt and carried a metal cigarette-type case through the scanner at two different airports. The cases would have been detected immediately by the old metal detectors.

The spokesmoron for the TSA said that it was "a crude attempt to allegedly show how to circumvent TSA screening procedures".

Pardon? Allegedly? It worked, you twit!

Here's Corbett explaining his procedures to fool the body scanners:

When you support Palestine you're saying "Death to Jews"

2012-03-07T18:52:00.001-05:00

Sadly, liberal thought has degenerated intellectually and morally to the point where they now openly support those who advocate genocide. Yes, today's brave liberal thinker is a water carrier for the most openly hateful group of people on the earth today, Muslims.

Stop apologizing and start carpet bombing

Tonight I read a story about the Pakistanis finding two English language Bibles in Obama's hideout in Abbottabad just before demolition began. They had apparently been using them for secret planning, as they had been defaced with highlights and folded over pages. And of course we who have some degree of connection to the Bible will ~~now grab our explosives and attack a mosque~~ do nothing about this insult.

Then I read the latest about the groveling apologies from Obama and their generals for the burning of two their books (which were being used to pass planning codes for attacks on US forces). Their so-called Afghan "partners" murder US soldiers in retaliation (six now) and Hussein apologizes?

America is being dismantled, one principle after another, and the activist goons in charge are still worshipped by the sycophantic TV media (Fox/Sun excepted).

It is obvious to the adult mind that there will always be violent aggression directed our way by Islam, and that no amount of apologizing will make any difference. The only thing that Islam understands is brute force. Peace is not in their stone-age vocabulary. The problem is that liberals do not operate with adult minds.

Jesus said to turn the other cheek; he never said to go back and forth with the cheeks forever.

The origin of Cruel But Fair

2012-02-19T21:35:00.001-05:00

The origin of Cruel But Fair is from the story of the Piranha Brothers, Doug and Dinsdale. They were ruthless British gang leaders in the 70's.

One story always stood out: that of Stig O'Tracy, a victim of Dinsdale Piranha. One night Dinsdale nailed his head to the floor for unknown reasons. Despite the transgression, Stig was adamant that he had deserved it, and he insisted that Dinsdale had actually wanted to spare him.

Dinsdale Piranha (right) and his brother Doug.

In Stig's own words, speaking about Dinsdale Piranha:

"He was a cruel man, but fair"

Canada Poised to Regain Freedom of Speech

2012-02-19T18:09:00.004-05:00

MP Brian Storseth (Westlock - St Paul) has been leading the charge to restore basic freedom of speech in Canada with Bill C-304. Its purpose is to repeal Section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.

Here is the story as he introduced the bill in September 2011, (from openparliament.ca):

Brian Storseth Westlock—St. Paul, AB

moved for leave to introduce Bill C-304, An Act to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act (protecting freedom).

"Mr. Speaker, I rise today in this House to introduce a bill entitled “An Act to amend the Canadian Human Rights Act (protecting freedom)”.

Freedom of speech is a fundamental principle in our democracy and one which Canadians have fought and died for, for over a century. This is not a fight that one Canadian can take on himself, but rather an issue that all Canadians must engage in vigorously.

In this, I would like to thank my friends and colleagues such as Senator Finley and the member for St. Catharines who have rigorously pursued a freer, more open society, and resisted the tyrannical instincts of bureaucracy to censor speech in our great country.

Freedom of speech is the freedom that all other freedoms are built on. It cannot be restrained to the politically correct. The best way to fight bigotry is to ensure that we protect and enhance our fundamental freedoms in this great country of ours. That is why I ask all members in this House to support this bill that protects the fundamental building block of democracy: freedom of speech. God bless."

-----

Section 13 was not in the original CHRA but was a bureaucratic add-on much later. It's also known as the Hurt Feelings clause. It was the brainchild of greedy lawyers, power hungry bureaucrats and other rent-seekers. Under the guise of "equality" and Big Brother talk of "fairness", these parasites conspired to create a brand new branch of the justice system. One in which their clients could simply claim harm from others' speech, without having to prove it, and without allowing the truth as a defence.

Anyway, MP Storseth just performed the second reading of this important bill on Feb 14th. Thank you Mr Storseth and thanks to the Conservatives for their support of this restoration of free speech, our most basic human right.

Aqsa Parvez: Forgotten by family but loved by strangers

2012-02-18T21:04:00.001-05:00

Thanks to Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer, an innocent Canadian girl will never be forgotten despite the best efforts of her relatives. Her father killed her in the name of Islam because she refused to be controlled by him.

A memorial plaque has been erected in Israel in her name and the names of all women and girls killed and abused in the name of Islam. They must not be ignored or forgotten.

Here is the link to the whole story of the Aqsa Parvez memorial at Atlas Shrugs. God bless Pamela and Robert for standing up for her and all the girls and women killed and abused in the name of Islam.
