"It's just the latest in a long line of annoying PC-related nonsense that we keep getting shoved down our throats": U.K. police get another list of things they can't say or do

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 02:02 GMT

Curiously, the new regulations also make officers&os; behavior more closely aligned with Sharia norms of gender interaction and interpersonal contact. "Police officers banned from asking for &os;Christian&os; names," by Richard Edwards for the Telegraph, March 18: Police officers have been banned from asking for a person&os;s "Christian" name because it...

Iranians training Taliban: "Our religions and our histories are different but our target is the same. We both want to kill Americans."

If I had a nickel for all the times people in audiences where I&os;ve spoken, or emailers to this site, or learned analysts with whom I&os;ve debated, or any number of other people have told me confidently that Islam is not a monolith, that the umma is rent by deep...

What Racism at the Tea Parties?

Sun, 21 Mar 2010 15:41 GMT

Wow. The racism that underlies much of the tea party movement is coming to the surface more and more, and yesterday in Washington DC the mask came completely off: Protesters hurl slurs and spit at Democrats.

Washington (CNN) - Civil rights icon and veteran Rep. John Lewis, D-Georgia, said anti-health care bill protesters Saturday repeatedly yelled the “N” word at him as he left a heath care meeting and walked to the Capitol.

“I haven’t seen heard anything like this in more than 40 years, maybe 45.” Lewis said. “Since the march from Selma to Montgomery really.”

“Yeah, but it’s okay,” Lewis added. “I’ve faced this before. So, it reminded me of the 60’s. There’s a lot of downright hate and anger and people are just being downright mean.”

The incident was confirmed by Rep. Andre Carson, D-Indiana, who was walking with Lewis at the time. Protesters were yelling, “‘kill the bill, kill the bill’ and the ‘N’ word several times,” Carson said.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Missouri, released a statement late Saturday saying he too was called the “N” word as he walked to the Capitol for a vote and that he was spat on by one protestor who was arrested by U.S. Capitol Police. Cleaver declined to press charges against the man, the statement said.

Protesters also hurled anti-gay comments at Rep. Barney Frank, D-Massachusetts, who is openly gay, as he left the same health care meeting that Lewis attended in a House office building.

A CNN producer overheard the word “faggot” yelled at Frank several times in the lobby of the Longworth building. Frank said he heard someone yell “homo” at him.

Pakistani Christian burned alive, wife raped by police for refusing to convert to Islam

Sun, 21 Mar 2010 09:26 GMT

The Qur&os;an says there is "no compulsion in religion " (2:256) but Islamic law and the Qur&os;an itself are actually full of subtle and not-at-all-subtle means of coercion of non-believers (e.g., dhimmi status, the jizya tax, and of course, warfare). Add to that a situation where authorities, steeped in hatred...

NPR offers smooth deceptions about the Qur'an's teaching on jihad

Sat, 20 Mar 2010 12:41 GMT

Here we go again: more smooth lies, half-truths, detours and deceptions -- anything to keep us from looking squarely at the jihad doctrine as delineated by the Qur&os;an and Sunnah. It&os;s interesting that Philip Jenkins gets a big feature on NPR for claiming that the Bible is more violent than...

Frank Zappa Marvel Comics Ad, 1968

Sat, 20 Mar 2010 11:55 GMT

One of the reasons I’m visiting family this week is to determine the value of a trove of 1960s era comic books that my mom kept in a sealed wooden crate for more than 40 years. My brother and I have been amazed at the almost new condition of a lot of the books.

And here’s an interesting bit of 60s trivia; in a few issues of some of the Marvel comics, we’ve discovered the following advertisement for Frank Zappa’s Mothers of Invention and their new album, “We’re Only In It For the Money.” I’d totally forgotten about this one.

This ad was in Daredevil #38, from March 1968. Check out the condition of this book; it looks like it just came off the rack in a store.

Probably the most valuable book we’ve found so far is this one: X-Men #1. Even in its somewhat beat-up state, it’s still worth quite a bit of money. (Certainly more than 12 cents.) The interior is completely intact, the inks are still bright, and the paper is only slightly yellowed.

Misunderstander of Islam actually understands Islam well enough

Sat, 20 Mar 2010 10:58 GMT

In this article, David Pugliese does his best to portray Ghulam Rasol as an illiterate, manipulated naif, operating (no doubt) according to a twisted, hijacked version of Islam -- a classic Misunderstander of the Religion of Peace™. In reality, however, what Ghulam Rasol did was entirely in accord with Islamic...
