  2. This is interesting.
    The socialist aristocracy gets on the mass media in prime time, contributing to the AGW propaganda and then there are the non-descriptive, non-informed, locals that have their opinions, many and varied. Of course the mass media is not interested.
    The locals it seems did not really know what was going on and so the answers appear to reflect that. Rather incoherent gibberish. Probably got a few coins from Tides to attend.
    Rather sad.
    From the New York celebration of nothingness.

  3. “I keep hearing it said that air power alone can’t stop ISIS. I don’t hear it spoken in Japanese”
    but Japan was not reduced by air power alone. In Burma, thanks to Field Marshall Slim,
    they were roundly defeated and driven out. As far as the main island of Japan goes, it was the
    US submarine fleet which put the Japanese merchant marine under the waves and was on the
    way to starving Japan by the end of the war.
    The best example of the use of airpower, I would say, is actually in Iraq, in Desert Storm, where
    a lengthy bombing campaign had devastated the Iraqi army and annihilated its air force.
    One of the results was the Highway of Death, showing the consequences of airpower against
    badly handled military assets. http://deoxy.org/gif/torched.jpg

  4. According to an RCMP report released in May, the vast majority of murdered aboriginal women were not killed by strangers, they were killed by spouses, boyfriends, family members or acquaintances of the victims.
    “Female homicide victims generally know the person who kills them — more than 90% had a previous relationship with them,” said the report. “This is true for aboriginal and non-aboriginal female victims.”
    We know who’s killing aboriginal women. Most of them are men — 89%. Close to 40% of the killers were either the spouses or boyfriends of the victims, 23% of them were family members, and 30% were acquaintances. Only a small minority of the killers were strangers — 8%.
    They don’t want to talk about the people doing the killing because the killers, for the most part, are also aboriginal. Aboriginal men are killing aboriginal women.
    So the picture that the aboriginal lobby is trying to paint, that aboriginal women and girls are being plucked off the street randomly by strangers and are being killed, is false, according to the facts.

  5. One of the piles of stuff memorializing Michael Brown’s shooting went up in flames. Not surprisingly, the first efforts to suggest arson are starting up.

    So, was it
    1) a memorial candle that got out of hand
    2) a false flag agitprop attack
    3) white supremacists twisting a knife stuck in the grief of others
    or 4) Eric Holder’s carelessly discarded cigarette?

  6. Obomber at the UN
    “When it comes to America and Islam, there is no us and them — there is only us,” Obama said
    And was the UN the place to race bait?
    I know the world also took notice of the small American city of Ferguson, Missouri – where a young man was killed, and a community was divided. So yes, we have our own racial and ethnic tensions

  7. I got one a long time ago! My father and Roger Miller’s
    half brother were partners in crime. When I was just a
    little shit, he came to our house a few times. I idolized
    him because he would sing me some wacky song when he came by
    for a visit.

  8. I didn’t know there was a meeting yesterday in New York on deforestation, something that would also interest Canada. However, Brasil is having nothing of this nonsense:

    Dilma says Brazil was not consulted about appointment of deforestation
    President Dilma Rousseff spoke out about the fact that Brazil has not signed the New York Declaration, in which 150 countries are committed to fully stop deforestation by 2030 she confirmed yesterday by the Foreign Ministry stated position of the Brazilian government was not invited to participate in the drafting of the document and said the letter hurts Brazilian law.
