But what I haven't seen any mention of, Coldjoint, is the deadly violence in Charlottesville, where a white supremacist deliberately barreled his car into a group of protesters, killing a 32 year old woman and wounding at least 19 other people. What was that about?

The same old, you are justifying one crime with another. Start thinking, it won't hurt.

Man accused of driving into crowd at Charlottesville could receive death penalty

The man accused of mowing down a counter-protester at last year’s white nationalist rally in Charlottesville is now facing federal hate crime charges and could receive the death penalty if convicted.

James Alex Fields Jr., a 21-year-old from Ohio, has been charged with one count of a hate crime resulting in the death of 32-year-old Heather Heyer. He also faces 28 other hate crime charges involving an attempt to kill dozens of other people who were injured, according to an indictment released Wednesday A 30th charge accuses him of "racially motivated violent interference" with a federally protected activity.

"With respect to all 30 counts, it is alleged that Fields acted in this case because of the race, color, religion, and national origin of that crowd," Cullen said.

"Last summer's violence in Charlottesville cut short a promising young life and shocked the nation," Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Wednesday. "Today's indictment should send a clear message to every would-be criminal in America that we aggressively prosecute violent crimes of hate that threaten the core principles of our nation."

@coldjoint,

I haven't yet given my opinion on the Red Hen debacle, but personally, I find it plain wrong to deny a person service due to the job they hold. So I'm wholeheartedly in line with the conservatives here. However, I can't really in any way, shape or form compare denying service in a restaurant(which seemed to be the source of all the liberal outrage) to murder. And I'm not justifying any crime either: I'm just vexed that you point out all sorts of liberal 'mayhem', and quote an article? that calls them murderous street thugs(where no murder has yet been committed by them afaik), and yet blithely overlook the actual murder that occurred last year.

You sure are, why else would you mention it? Will you be bringing it up again when someone does die?

I wonder if they will also construe that finding to apply to Federal workers.

Probably, yeah, and private sector unions also. I haven't read the case, but they say these rights are fundamental (first A), so the reasoning underlying the decision would presumably be universally applicable.

I agree, however the decision, as I understand it, didn't explicitly address other categories workers. I hope you're right. Most of our Federal workforce is unionized, and they usually demand one "shop steward" (= government paid employee who works only on union business) for every 20 workers. That's a lot of $$ in the Federal Budget. Unions also usually work hard to take over the HR function for union members in organizations they infect, and specify in detail the job descriptions of all organized workers - this enables them to demand new, additional employees if anything changes.

I have read that intelligent & successful parasites usually don't kill their hosts. The history of labor unions in this country strongly suggests that most labor unions are fairly stupid parasites.

No, because other categories weren't parties to the suit. Some federal employee will presumably have to bring a suit, unless the government voluntarily complies with the spirit of this ruling.

It may not reach to private unions, unless it could be interpreted to invalidate some federal labor laws.

It's definitely extremely bad news for the unions' bank account, and hence the Democratic party primarily. They can't just grab money from everybody and his brother by force of law anymore.

tRump is a sucker, and the people who voted for him are even bigger suckers. Our country is the laughingstock of the world, and Republicans are doing nothing about it. Democrats will turn this country around AGAIN in November.

Satellite Images Show North Korea Making 'Rapid' Upgrades to Nuclear Facility

Quote:

North Korea has continued to make “rapid” infrastructure improvements at a nuclear research facility despite leader Kim Jong Un’s recent pledge to “work toward complete denuclearization” of the Korean peninsula, satellite images show.

Analysis of commercial satellite images obtained by Pyongyang-monitoring site 38 North reveals upgrades “continuing at a rapid pace” throughout North Korea’s Yongbyon Nuclear Scientific Research Center, including modifications to its plutonium production reactor’s cooling system.

Guess what? If that is really happening he will do something about. The Left needs to allow the adults to do their jobs.

I know I am on his ignore, before he or anyone else reminds me.

Supreme Court deals major blow to public sector unions

The Supreme Court dealt a major blow to public sector unions on Wednesday in a case that could shake their financial structure and undermine their future stability.

"It is hard to estimate how many billions of dollars have been taken from nonmembers and transferred to public-sector unions in violation of the First Amendment. Those unconstitutional exactions cannot be allowed to continue indefinitely," Alito wrote.

This case could also significantly hurt Democrats, Vladeck said.

"This decision in particular will likely have ramifications at the ballot box," Vladeck said, "since it will weaken the economic health -- and political power -- of public-sector unions, which tend to support Democratic candidates more often than Republicans.

This suit affected 5 million employees. A even $40/month per employee, that's almost a billion PER MONTH they'll be losin, aint it?

The Media Accuses Trump of its Own Crimes

The Goebbels model for the people yelling Nazi. If I remember right Geobbels was a Nazi. He said to accuse your enemies of your crimes. That is what the MSM is doing.

Who are the Nazis here?

The usual comment with nothing whatsoever to back it up. What is absent of logic? Be specific.

I'll give time find out what logic means. Hit it.

We have to keep an eye our schools and not just for shooters.

Quote:

But some contend that line has already been crossed in regard to Islam in the classroom. In Chatham, New Jersey, a parent is suing the school system for forcing 7th grade students to watch a set of videos in their World Cultures and Geography class that essentially proselytize for Islam. One five-minute video declares that:

God gave Muhammed the noble Quran
The Quran is a perfect guide for humanity
Islam is a shining beacon against the darkness of repression, segregation, intolerance and racism
The Beautiful Quran is guidance for the wise & sensible.

The video ends with an invitation of sorts: “May God help us all to find the true faith, Islam.”

That has no place in public schools. I hope this becomes known so something can be done. This is a form of cultural suicide.
