Velly interesting.

Seems the NRA is shilling for establishment Republicans.

I dunno if the entire article is true. Have no way to verify. But if it is, then Wayne has some ‘splainin to do…..

So the other day, I pointed out the absurdity of a police office and the resultant arrest and charges in an incident in which a woman, (who WAS speeding) was arrested for failing to pull over on a VERY dark and lonely stretch of road at approximately 11 PM.  Instead of pulling over immediately, she turned her emergency flashers on and drove slowly about a mile to a well lit and public parking lot. 


The absurdity was compounded by the officers supervisors (“The sheriff’s office supports our officer’s decision in this matter.”) …and then the Sheriff himself chose to back the officer as well…. One statement made was the she was “defiant” after the officer (with good reason, not knowing why she did what she did) was angry that she didn’t stop , and when she did, got into her face………But even after getting an explanation, he chose to be unreasonable and arrest her because she would not be cowed. As far as I know, it is legal to be “Defiant” as long as one does not resist arrest. But the Sheriff apparently feels differently, as he used that for the explanation as to why things went as far as they did…


So the woman, Delrea Good, was in limbo for a few weeks. Until of course, the Prosecutor chose to look at the facts of the case, at which time, since she wouldn’t plead or cooperate, he chose to drop the charges (The Prosecutor in that county works in lockstep with the Sheriff, generally)…but in this case, “Upon review of the circumstances of the incident as well as information learned after the incident, it was determined that a dismissal of the charges was in the best interests of justice”  (in other words, the dashcam video didn’t show her fighting or resisting the officer in any way….and she followed suggested procedure for anyone who doesn’t feel safe when being pulled over by an officer in a dark area). 


Thing is, while the wheels of Justice turned, and while this is the way that things should work, it NEVER should have gotten this far.While I do understand the Deputy being upset (not knowing what was happening), once the explanation was given, he should have ended it there. Instead, he escalated it. Which led to the Sheriff’s office being forced to eat Crow: “After a review of the circumstances surrounding Ms. Good’s arrest, the Porter County Sheriff’s office supports Porter County Prosecutor Gensel’s decision to drop the charges”

This is a good way for the Police and Sheriff to destroy the support of decent, honest citizens… 


I still think that if there is a viable candidate come next election, I’m gonna support him, instead of  David Reynolds.

ETA (8:04 PM): SO this case has made NATIONAL NEWS.

THink about this.

It’s more than just wanting to be left alone. It is “You must validate my lifestyle and approve of it!.

Or. We. Will. Hound you into submission!

GO….. Read it. This is what I was talking about when I wrote THIS.

But (as usual) Ace says it better:

 I don’t want you or any of the other rules-following, orderliness-obsessed corporatists making decisions for me.

I choose liberty, and I choose my own conscience. And choosing that means, get this, that I must also choose liberty and the right to consciencefor others.

This is a time for clarity, and this is a time for choosing. This is a time to discover who it is who really supports Liberty and Freedom, and who it is who is really all about Control and Conformity.

For many years, many conservatives have really been more about the latter than the former. I have admitted, and I will continue to admit, I was among them. I have long had pronounced authoritarian and statist tendencies.

I fight against them now, like an alcoholic fights his lust for drink.

But too many conservatives continue championing Social Control and Conformity while mouthing the empty platitudes about how wonderful Freedom is.

Freedom to do exactly what is permitted on pages 36-42 of the Corporate Handbook, that is.
Anything else is A Disorder and thus Subversive.

Read the whole thing.

If we could only get the Media as interested in government overspending and deficits as they are in pushing forward the agenda of the LGBT folks, we might have a chance to get this countries economics back on track.

To insult, denigrate or otherwise royally piss off the LBGT community…..

Maybe they will then start hammering me via the press, the Internet and other social media. I mean, I could use something like more than $800K donated to me by my fellow straight citizens to help me out (note: an average of a little under $30 per person….a lot of people donated!) because the press and the faggots and the dykes were having a screaming shit fit because I didn’t validate their existence and say that their lifestyle is all good an OK and holy nd shit. (hint: I really don’t give a fuck who you sleep with or how (or how many at a time), as long as they are adults.)




I mean, how can I piss ’em off so I can get the same press and garner the same type of sympathy…. I could use that kind of scratch to live the lifestyle to which I’d like to become accustomed.

Any suggestions?

Indeed. Jimmy is also likely a libertarian. He sure as hell ain’t a Liberal.

Now, remember, unless yer a Pagan, it has nothing to do with Bunnies and eggs and Easter Baskets.

If yer a Christian, then remember the reason….

Either way, enjoy the day.

Guns seldom just “Go Off“.

Methinks he needs to learn to keep his Booger Hook off the BangSwitch.

But cops are the only ones with enough training to have firearms, right?

(This isn’t an indictment of police officers, just making a point).

Watching those people who preach “tolerance” and “respect for other’s beliefs” tearing themselves up trying to quash those who happen to believe differently from them.

The Gays who want “tolerance”, but have none for those who find the gay lifestyle disgusting. (I really don’t care, mind you, that’s your business) but who would doeverything in their power to destroy those who won’t validate their lifestyle.

And I am amused when those same gay groups (a very tiny, but VERY vocal minority)  try to destroy someone who disagreed with them are shocked and amazed when the rest of society rallies ’round those whom they would try to destroy.

I think that the Gay and the seriously Anti-gay folks are both truly a minority. I believe that the rest of us really don’t give a shit. I also think that each time the “Outrage Brigades” (on every side) pick a target we should rally round and give ’em the good ole Razberry like in the above case.

But I, for one am disgusted by the tactics of those who would preach “tolerance” but will not practice it. Those who feel “tolerance” means “agree with me or die”.
