Blaming the victim

So if being drunk may make you more susceptible to being raped, wouldn't you educate coeds as such?

Not in today's politically correct society..........

“I don’t think you are doing young women any favors by saying, We’re not going to tell you that this happens – and be careful about it.” The reason given for the censorship, she says, were “focusing on how much students drink . . . leads to blaming victims.”

That's hilarious.

At the University of Cincinnati's own website, they have safety tips to help protect yourself against crime on and near campus.

Here's the list of suggestions

• Lock your doors and windows
• Be alert and aware of your surroundings
• Don't leave cell phones and computers unattended in plain sight
• Travel in pairs or groups - don't walk alone
• Avoid dark streets and hallways
• Don't reveal personal information to strangers or new acquaintances
• Don't leave door/house keys under the doormat and don't leave notes on the door
• Don't get on an elevator with someone that makes you feel uncomfortable

How is adding a line item saying, don't get plastered in bars somehow"blaming the victim"?

Surely, coeds should be able to get bombed like anyone else. But every student should know that being impaired means being impaired. You are not nearly as likely to fight off an attack when you're bombed.......male or female.

So we're going to play pretend not give students the truth.

Who's the journalist and who's the hack?

So James O'Keefe is not considered a journalist for some of his stunts like crossing the border in an Osama bin Laden mask to illustrate the porous border situation we have.

But, of course, if Jim Avila, from ABC news does it, it is somehow legtimate.........

It's not that difficult to cross into Mexico's southern border from Guatemala, claims ABC News reporter Jim Avila: For $5, he was able to board a raft and make a short trip across a river, along with three other people.
"We found in Guatemala just last month makeshift rafts, filled with immigrants crossing illegally into Mexico heading to the U.S.," Avila said during a segment on ABC's "This Week" Sunday. "I boarded one with no papers, no IDs checked. Cost me $5 to bring three people over here from Guatemala to Mexico."
As nearly 75 percent of the nearly 63,000 illegal, unaccompanied migrant juveniles that have come across the United States' southern border have been from Central America, there has been concern that many are traveling through Guatemala on their way north. Others pass through Belize into Mexico, and then into the United States, ABC reports.

 

 

What's the difference?

Liberalism, siccing the predators on their communities

I'm a law and order type of conservative. Do the crime and do the crime.

But why should I care if liberals want to set criminals loose on society? Take any poor, crime ridden area. When the criminals get released, do they come to my area in Redville? No. They head right back to to "Progress" City where they can continue victimizing their communities.

Never has there been a more clear example of this than a recent killing here in Cincinnati.

Deters believes the Aug. 19 shooting deaths in Avondale of Antwon Ward and Tywaune Thomas might have been prevented had Hunter sent Thomas to juvenile prison as prosecutors asked. Instead, Hunter, in an October 2013 sentencing, ordered Thomas to undergo outpatient drug treatment, to attend school and be placed on house arrest wearing an electronic device to monitor his whereabouts, Deters said.

"Judge Hunter has consistently said that she is doing this 'for the children.' Well, now we have a dead one," a statement issued by Deters office Thursday morning states.

Prosecutors asked for a prison term because Thomas was convicted of trafficking in heroin, his 37th conviction as a juvenile. Because Thomas also had a history, prosecutors said, of running away from unsecured facilities and violating his house arrest, they asked that he be sent to juvenile prison until age 21, the maximum sentence.

Thomas would have been in prison, Deters noted, on Aug. 19 when authorities said he shot and killed Ward in the 500 block of Carplin Avenue. Thomas then was shot and killed by an unnamed third person.

"Her campaign to not incarcerate violent juveniles has been a disaster," Deters said. "This should come as no surprise."

Certainly no surprise to me which is why I moved to the 'burbs. Judge Hunter can keep those criminals right where she wants them. In her neighborhood.


Seriously, Democrats wouldn't have to keep importing immigrant voters if they simply prevented the killing of their existing constituency.

Why I no longer trust the government

Many years ago, a theory was floated that there may be a link between vaccinations and autism.

Jenny McCarthy and others who advocated this belief have been besieged by a public relations campaign sponsored by the CDC discrediting this belief.

Nevermind, that the CDC cannot tells us what is causing this increase of children on the spectrum. But they know for sure that McCarthy and her ilk are nutty. Just ask the totally unbiased studies commissioned by the CDC for proof.

Oh..... it turns out that these studies are totally bogus...........

A CDC senior epidemiologist stepped forward last week to say that he and his CDC colleagues omitted data that linked MMR vaccine to autism in a 2004 study. The scientist, William Thompson, said “I regret that my coauthors and I omitted statistically significant information.”

Sharryl Attkisson, maybe the only journalist to question the authorities, is tracking this.

What is phenomenal is that Attkisson, actually posed a question to the CDC that they never even considered. Are Amish Children seeing the same increases of Autism seen in the general population?

They've never done any study or questionnaires on the subject.

Seriously!

I'm just guessing but I think maybe they are afraid of what they might find.

The science is settled.........

Except when it isn't.......

Global warming has been temporarily 'paused' according to a group of scientists, who attribute this interlude to climate fluctuations and a more restrained sun. 

No shit? Who would have thought that the sun would have some impact on global warming?

But apparently there are other things that impact the climate as well.

The first is that global temperatures, which rose significantly in the 1990s, have only risen very slightly since 1998 - which has been used by sceptics to question climate change and the models used to measure it.

However, climate fluctuations such as El Niño and its counter-phenomenon La Niña have been shown to have caused the high in 1998 and following cooler years respectively. Climate models cannot predict when exactly these fluctuations will happen.

The other reason for the lower temperatures is weak solar irradiance. As well as fluctations in the climate, changes in the intensity of solar irradiance have been showing unusual patterns. The researchers also say that volanic eruptions, such as Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland in 2010, "have increased the concentration of floating particles (aerosol) in the atmosphere, which has further weakened the solar irradiance arriving at the Earth's surface".

So wait, you mean that El Nino's, La Nina's, also have an impact on climate as well?

But you can't figure what the impact is, but you are certain that humans have the most impact?

And you call me a denier?

I've got an question. Since apparently the science is settled. Why is the government spending resources investigating something that's "settled"?

I'll bet if the funding gets cut off, things will be less "settled"

Mark Steyn on the militarization of the police............

The most basic problem is that we will never know for certain what happened. Why? Because the Ferguson cruiser did not have a camera recording the incident. That's simply not credible. "Law" "enforcement" in Ferguson apparently has at its disposal tear gas, riot gear, armored vehicles and machine guns ...but not a dashcam. That's ridiculous. I remember a few years ago when my one-man police department in New Hampshire purchased a camera for its cruiser. It's about as cheap and basic a police expense as there is.

Who lost the cities?

A must read from Kevine Williamson from NRO.

Money passage..........

The more progressive the city, the worse a place it is to be poor and/or black. The most pronounced economic inequality in the United States is not in some Republican redoubt in Texas but in San Francisco, an extraordinarily expensive city in which half of all black households make do with less than $25,000 a year. Blacks in San Francisco are arrested on drug felonies at ten times their share of the general population. At 6 percent of the population, they represent 40 percent of those arrested for homicides. Whether you believe that that is the result of a racially biased criminal-justice system or the result of higher crime incidence related to socioeconomic conditions within black communities (or some combination of those factors) what is undeniable is that results for black Americans are far worse in our most progressive, Democrat-dominated cities than they are elsewhere. The progressives have had the run of things for a generation in these cities, and the results are precisely what you see.

Jason Riley on Ferguson

Meet Amanda Curtis

Do what the cops tell you

Years ago, I was at a party that was starting to get out of hand.

I was watching something on TV with my buddies and a cop walked in a yelled "everyone under 18 get the hell out of here right now".

That was all the warning I needed.

Unfortunately, as I was heading out the door, some ass hole behind me started bitching about private property, pigs and rights.

I wish I knew what happened to that guy because the last I saw him he was on the ground eating carpet fiber.

Me?  I walked away without a problem.

As I get older, I feel more like Kevin Kline bitching out William Hurt in the Big Chill for disrespecting the cop who pulled him over.

I haven't posted on the Ferguson dust up because I don't know that happened that day.........Just like every one of the talking heads who have an opinion on this event.

But it's following a similar pattern to all the other events like this.

Media puts out unconfirmed reports. People jump to their respective sides.


The Bobblehead Reverends show up and make things even more polarized.

Eventually, this cop will face some show trial but because the witnesses have been tainted by their prejudices, multiple investigations contradicting each other and media attention, there will be no ability to prosecute this cop which will start a mini riot still to come.

The moral to the story, do what the cop tells you and you walk away.
