When Black Lives Don’t Matter

Black lives don’t matter when Planned Parenthood is involved.  Most do not realize that Planned Parenthood was the outgrowth of Margaret Sanger’s attempt to cleanse the American population of undesirables, especially blacks, whom she considered incapable of the type of “elevated” behavior  of educated whites.  But, Margaret wanted to rid society of all manner of undesirables, not just blacks.  To her, the mentally disabled, the weak, the unmanageable hordes must also be cleansed.  This is why Planned Parenthood started in the inner cities, where the poor, disabled and minorities were most often encountered.  Yet, Hillary Clinton is still proud to accept the Margaret Sanger Award.  And, she accuses Trump of being a racist.

Black lives don’t matter on the streets.  Where 40% of gang members are under the age of 18, too young to legally own a gun, but the most likely to use a gun to kill another child. 31% of these gang members are black. This places two black lives at risk, the one who uses the gun and is likely to spend the rest of his life in prison and the one on whom the gun was used, who will likely die from the encounter.  But, there is no push from Black Lives Matter to remove black children from the ranks of gangs.  There is no protest from Colin Kaepernick to recognize, or criticize the involvement of blacks in gangs. Those black lives do not matter to either Black Lives Matter or Colin Kaepernick or they would protest, these gangs, criticize these gangs for putting at risk those black lives.

Leonardo DiCaprio to host $33,400-a-plate fundraiser for Hillary Clinton in Los Angeles

She will surely be a president of the people. She really cares about you peasants as she siphons up $300,000 for an hour speech at The Vampire Squid on the Face of America (aka Goldman Sachs) and parties with the Hollywood elite for $33,400 per plate. What are they serving – glazed baby fetus from Planned Parenthood? Knowing Leo’s passion for the environment, I’m sure Clooney and the rest of the beautiful people will be arriving by horse and not stretch limos getting 3 mpg. This is the hand picked president of the establishment.

Hollywood makin’ it rain!

The next time Hillary Clinton makes her way out to Los Angeles, Oscar winner Leonardo DiCaprio will reportedly open the doors to his home for flush supporters willing to fork over $33,400 for a ticket.

The event, dubbed “Conversations with Hillary,” is slated for Aug. 23, according to sources cited by Variety. The first $2,700 will go directly to the Clinton campaign, with the rest — as per the rules — collected for the broader Democratic Party.

DiCaprio surely won’t be the only show biz luminary on hand. Jennifer Lopez, Harvey Weinstein and Tobey Maguire were also mentioned among those that could be in attendance.

This, of course, won’t be the first time Hollywood elites make it rain for Clinton. Earlier this year, tickets for two seats at the table with the Clooneys and Hillary went for about $353,000 — even George had to admit it was an “obscene” amount of money.

A day before the DiCaprio event, Clinton will already have gotten a big Tinseltown boost to her war chest. Power Rangers billionaire Haim Saban is hosting an event at his Beverly Hills home on August 22 — the 14th Hollywood fundraiser since she announced her bid for the White House last year, according to Deadline. Heavy hitters like Disney DIS, +0.22%  boss Bob Iger and DreamWorks DWA, +0.00%  CEO Jeff Katzenberg are expected to attend.


Facebook has spent $16 million on armed security for billionaire progressive Mark Zuckerberg

Via Breitbart

This means that even as Facebook was incrementally barring law-abiding citizens–including licensed gun dealers–from advertising firearm sales for self-defense, they were spending millions to keep Zuckerberg surrounded by hired guys carrying guns.

Facebook’s ban on the advertisement of gun sales has even led to the deletion of accounts on which the word “firearms” is included.

According to Quartz, Zuckerberg “famously takes $1 annual salary” from Facebook. However, Facebook “revealed that it spent more than $16 million over the past five years on private air travel and other aspects of Zuckerberg’s ‘overall security program.’”

The amount of money spent on Zuckerberg’s security was disclosed after the SEC pressed Facebook to explain whether “security expenses” were included in “Zuckerberg’s annual compensation package.”

The company, which had previously only disclosed travel costs, provided the SEC with security costs for Zuckerberg as well. “Facebook had previously claimed that it didn’t have to report Zuckerberg’s security costs because the measures weren’t put in place for his convenience, so they didn’t fall under rules governing the disclosure of executive perks.”

Zuckerberg’s number two–chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg–spent $1.25 million on security last year.

Breitbart News reported that private citizens were banned from advertising gun sales on Facebook on January 29.


GOOD IDEA FOR THE WHITE HOUSE BUT NOT THE SOUTHERN BORDER

The hypocrisy of the Obama administration and their left wing lunatic minions is breathtaking to behold. They call Trump a demagogue for suggesting that we keep illegals from pouring over our border and swamping our social safety net system by building a wall. But they think it makes total sense to build up the wall around the White House to keep the riff raff out.

Tear down that wall Mr. Obama. Give the citizens of this country free access to your house like you give them free access to my taxes. You fancy yourself as a modern day Lincoln. Americans could enter the White House during his presidency with ease.

Secret Service Plans to Raise White House Fence by 5 Feet

The U.S. Secret Service plans to raise the height of the White House security fence by 5 feet and add a new concrete foundation to reduce the risk of fence-jumpers, according to a copy of an agency report obtained by the News4 I-Team.

The agency, along with the National Park Service, said it intends to begin building a “taller, stronger” fence to protect the White House grounds by 2018.

Details of the plan were included in an audio recording of a briefing made by federal officials, which was released to the I-Team Wednesday. The same briefing is expected to be presented May 5 at a meeting of the National Capital Planning Commission, which must first approve any changes to White House fencing.

“The current fence simply is not adequate for a modern era. We’ve said that before. It is becoming more and more acutely clear that that is in fact the case,” Secret Service official Tom Dougherty said in the briefing to federal officials.

“(The fence) is entirely scale-able, depending upon the circumstances. And we have now a society that tends to want to jump over the fence and onto the 18 acres,” Daugherty said in the briefing.

PAPAL HYPOCRISY

The hypocrisy of this socialist pope is breathtaking to behold. His church continues to cover-up the priest abuse scandal. He preaches to leaders of countries to open their arms to Muslims who despise and hate Christians. His church has hundreds of billions in wealth tied up in real estate and art. Why doesn’t he use his vast real estate to house his Muslim brothers? Why doesn’t he sell all of his artwork to feed and clothe these Muslims? He preaches peace and hates guns. But he surrounds himself with armed men and travels in a bulletproof vehicle. This guy is a joke.

Pope Francis urged nations to “open their hearts and open their doors” to refugees on Wednesday.”They are there at the border because so many doors and so many hearts are closed.”

Open letter to SF Mayor Ed Lee and Greg Suhr (police chief)

I am writing today, to voice my concern and outrage over the increasing homeless and drug problem that the city is faced with. I’ve been living in SF for over three years, and without a doubt it is the worst it has ever been. Every day, on my way to, and from work, I see people sprawled across the sidewalk, tent cities, human feces, and the faces of addiction. The city is becoming a shanty town… Worst of all, it is unsafe.

This holiday weekend, I had my parents in town from Santa Barbara and relatives from Denver and Rochester New York. Unfortunately, there was three separate incidents and countless times that we were approached for money and harassed.

The first incident involved a homeless drunken man in the morning coming up to their car and leaning up against it. Another bystander got frustrated with the drunken man, and they got into a heated pushing and shoving altercation.

The second incident occurred as we were leaving Tadich Grill in the financial district. A distraught, and high person was right in front of the restaurant, yelling, screaming, yelling about cocaine, and even, attempted to pull his pants down and show his genitals.

Finally, last night Valentines, I was at Kabuki Theater inside watching a movie. About two hours into the film, a man stumbled in the front door. He proceeded to walk into the theater, down the aisle to the front, wobbled toward the emergency door, opened it, and then took his shirt off and laid down. He then came back into the theater shielding his eyes from the running projector. My girlfriend was terrified and myself and many people ran out of the theater.

Spying on Congress and Israel: NSA Cheerleaders Discover Value of Privacy Only When Their Own Is Violated

Guest Post by Glenn Greenwald

The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday that the NSA under President Obama targeted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his top aides for surveillance. In the process, the agency ended up eavesdropping on “the contents of some of their private conversations with U.S. lawmakers and American-Jewish groups” about how to sabotage the Iran Deal. All sorts of people who spent many years cheering for and defending the NSA and its programs of mass surveillance are suddenly indignant now that they know the eavesdropping included them and their American and Israeli friends rather than just ordinary people.

The long-time GOP chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and unyielding NSA defender Pete Hoekstra last night was truly indignant to learn of this surveillance:

WSJ report that NSA spied on Congress and Israel communications very disturbing. Actually outrageous. Maybe unprecedented abuse of power.

NSA and Obama officials need to be investigated and prosecuted if any truth to WSJ reports. NSA loses all credibility. Scary.

In January 2014, I debated Rep. Hoekstra about NSA spying and he could not have been more mocking and dismissive of the privacy concerns I was invoking. “Spying is a matter of fact,” he scoffed. As Andrew Krietz, the journalist who covered that debate, reported, Hoekstra “laughs at foreign governments who are shocked they’ve been spied on because they, too, gather information” — referring to anger from German and Brazilian leaders. As TechDirt noted, “Hoekstra attacked a bill called the RESTORE Act, that would have granted a tiny bit more oversight over situations where (you guessed it) the NSA was collecting information on Americans.”

Indonesia: Hundreds cheer as unmarried pair are flogged for being ‘too close’

 

Hundreds of people gathered to cheer as a woman was publicly caned in Indonesia for having affectionate contact with a man who was not her husband. University student Nur Elita was rushed to hospital after receiving five lashes in front of a jubilant crowd.

The 20-year-old was forced to kneel as a masked man whipped her repeatedly outside the Baiturrahim Mosque in Aceh, Indonesia’s only province to enact Sharia law. Her companion, 23-year-old Wahyudi Saputra was also caned. Under Sharia law, unmarried men and women are not allowed to get too close to each other due to the “khalwat” offence.

“Take these punishments as a lesson. What has been done by these convicts should not be taken as an example,” said Banda Aceh Deputy Mayor Zainal Arifin. “And to the public, I ask that you do not isolate those who have been convicted here today. And also, those who have been convicted are reminded not to repeat the same mistakes,” he added.

Elita could be seen doubling over in agony as she was brutally whipped. After the punishment was meted out, she was carried from the stage to an ambulance and transported to hospital to receive treatment.

An additional four men also received five lashes each for gambling, which is a crime under Sharia law. Earlier this year, a district in the conservative Aceh province invoked a bylaw requiring schools to teach boys and girls separately, while another city in the region previously barred female passengers from straddling a motorcycle when riding with a male driver.

Chicago Mayor Emanuel Urges “Remain Peaceful” After Video Shows Cop Killing Black Teen

A black teenager is killed by a white cop in Chicago = turmoil, riots, looting, outrage, CNN special coverage.

20 black teenagers are killed every weekend in Chicago by other black teenagers = silence, apathy, no CNN coverage.

Black lives only matter when a white guy is involved.

With the release of this video, we suggest anyone living in and around Chicago ‘brace’ for potential social unrest. The Chicago Police Department has released video footage of the officer-involved shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald, who was struck 16 times during a confrontation with officers.

The dashcam video, described by Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez says that this video is “graphic, violent, and chilling,” is expected to provoke a very strong emotional reaction from Chicago’s very large African-American community.

As John Kass, a columnist for the Chicago Tribune, said, the video “could tear Chicago apart,” which is why Mayor Emanuel has already urged Chicagoans, “it is fine to be passionate, but it is essential to remain peaceful.”

The following comes from CNN…

Laquan McDonald was walking down a Chicago street the night of October 20, 2014, carrying a four-inch knife and behaving erratically, authorities say.

 

A police officer told him to drop the knife. He didn’t listen, and the officer fired on him out of fear for his life, according to a police union spokesman.

 

McDonald, 17, died. He was shot 16 times.

 

Now, more than a year later, the public will be able to see what happened.

Warning: this video is graphic (the confrontation begins around 5:00)

Stucky Question Of The Day: Hypocrites

I’m talking about ……. YOU!

I’ve been listening to you STMs for longer than I want to admit …. do this, this, this, and that!  All you smarty-pants INTJs, and all your goddamned smarty-pants advice. Do you follow your own advice?

Admit to your own hypocrisy! Do it now.  Unburden yourselves. The truth will set you free.

This question is prompted by my own hypocrisy.  For YEARS I have been preaching, “If you eat ANYTHING that comes from China, you’re a goddamned idiot!!“.  Yet, here I am at this very moment in time munching on a 4 ounce bag of chestnuts (about 15 pieces) made in ….. China.  #fuckemedead

There are two foodie things I loved about the days of my yoot in Newark;  1) in summertime, the guy pushing his Italian Ice cart and, 2) in fall, the guy pushing his Roasted Chestnut cart.  I believe you’d get a handful of fresh roasted chestnuts for a quarter. The three fucking bags of Chink Chestnuts I bought yesterday cost $1.25 per bag! Adjusted for inflation, I’m thinking that’s less than I paid back in 1963. I LOVE a good deal.  Besides, it’s not a processed food …. looking at the Ingredients the bag says, “chestnut kernel“.  That’s it.  Not even any “preservatives“. Come to think of it, fuck you, I’m not a hypocrite at all. I’m eating a health food.

I’m also a hypocrite when it comes to religion … of which I have none. Although, I do kinda like Deism, sort of.  Yet, every Friday I entertain two Jehovah’s Witnesses for an hour long “Bible Study“.  I just bought another religion book last week.  And, I believe I’ve convinced my younger Jeebus-loving son than his dad is, yea, a born-again believer also.  The hypocrisy of all that burns all the way to heaven, and I gots me a one-way ticket to Hell, fer sure.

I fully expect this to be the least answered ‘question of the day’ ever. I’ll be surprised if it even reaches five posts.  A bunch of INTJs admitting to their their shortcomings??  Yeah … riiiight.


US Bombs Afghanistan Hospital, Kills 9 Civilians, Injures 37; Tosses It Off As “Collateral Damage”

Tyler Durden's picture

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse for US foreign policy, or for the credibility of the US state department to slide further, it got much worse.

Less than a day after US ambassador to the UN, uber-warhawk Samantha Power informed Russia of the latest US foreign policy stance by tweeter, when she called “on Russia to immediately cease attacks on Syrian opposition and civilians” in the latest desperate attempt to halt the Russian campaign against US-created ISIS which may wipe out the terrorist threat in just a few short days, it was the US itself which admitted that early on Saturday the US airforce bombed an Afghan hospital run by the medical aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres, or Doctors without Borders, in the Afghan city of Kunduz in an air strike that killed at least nine people and wounded 37.

As the Executive Director, of Doctors without Borders Jason Cone tweeted, “all parties 2 conflict, including in Kabul & Washington, were clearly informed of precise GPS Coordinates of @MSF facilities in Kunduz” and that the “precise location of @MSF Kunduz hospital communicated to all parties on multiple occasions over past months, including on 9/29.”

In other words, this morning’s US bombing was nothing more than another example of the utter incompetence, carelessness and disregard for innocent civilian lives that has become a staple hallmark of US foreign policy, something we have already witnessed repeatedly in the past 6 years as a result of the thousands of innocent people dead as part of US drone attacks, also known as “collateral damage.”

The attack, which started at 2:15am local time, took place when almost 200 patients and employees were in the hospital, the only one in the region that can deal with major injuries, Medecins Sans Frontieres said.

The aftermath of the US bombing:
