We Know How to Stop School Shootings

Ann Coulter 

"None of these policies had any effect on the frequency of, or carnage from, multiple-victim shootings. (I note that they did not look at reforming our lax mental health laws, presumably because the ACLU is working to keep dangerous nuts on the street in all 50 states.)

"Only one public policy has ever been shown to reduce the death rate from such crimes: concealed-carry laws."

"By contrast, the shootings in gun-free zones invariably result in far higher casualty figures -- Sikh temple, Oak Creek, Wis. (six dead); Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Va. (32 dead); Columbine High School, Columbine, Colo. (12 dead); Amish school, Lancaster County, Pa. (five little girls killed); public school, Craighead County, Ark. (five killed, including four little girls).

"All these took place in gun-free zones, resulting in lots of people getting killed -- and thereby warranting inclusion in the Mother Jones study.

"If what we care about is saving the lives of innocent human beings by reducing the number of mass public shootings and the deaths they cause, only one policy has ever been shown to work: concealed-carry laws. On the other hand, if what we care about is self-indulgent grandstanding, and to hell with dozens of innocent children being murdered in cold blood, try the other policies."

Racism at the Times

John Steele Gordon  "Professor Reed writes about the appointment of Rep. Tim Scott(right) to replace the retiring Senator Jim DeMint of South Carolina. Scott, in Reed’s view, is essentially an Uncle Tom because he does not agree with the politics of most black Americans:.

. . his politics, like those of the archconservative Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas, are utterly at odds with the preferences of most black Americans. Mr. Scott has been staunchly anti-tax, anti-union and anti-abortion.

...".Professor Reed calls his piece “The Puzzle of Black Republicans.” But the puzzle is easily solved. Tim Scott is not a black Republican. He’s a Republican who happens to be black. Professor Reed sees racism in everything. But if he’d like to see a real racist, he needs only to look in a mirror."

It’s Hard to Screw Up California — But We Try Our Best

Victor Davis Hanson   "...there are two Californias: a thin coastal strip where upscale, highly educated elites, in the manner of the DC/Virginia corridor, profit from managing the vast regulatory technocracy and big-government bureaus, the top universities (e.g., Berkeley, Cal Tech, Stanford, UCLA, USC, etc.) reside and draw in thousands of rich foreigners, Silicon Valley is flush with export cash, and where the climate, ocean, and boutique culture make for the good life — and the vast north, Sierra, inland south, and Central Valley that bear more directly the burdens of lousy schools, regulations on development of resources, illegal immigration, and flight out of state — all of which explains why a 1,500 square foot house in Santa Cruz or Menlo Park sells for about $800,000 to $1 million, while its similarly sized counterpart from Stockton to Fresno goes for around $125,000 to $150,000. A Bakersfield, Tulare, or Selma is simply in a different galaxy from a Palo Alto, Carmel, San Luis Obispo, or Santa Barbara.

...."But until the state deals with its cumbersome regulations, record taxes, hostility to resource development — and supports closing the border and promotes ethnically blind assimilation rather than serial amnesties and ethnic chauvinism — we will continue to have the nation’s worst schools, worst infrastructure, worst business climate, and highest exoduses, as California plods on, coasting on the fumes of what nature and our ancestors so generously bequeathed to us."

California Political Review

Is this part of the "revenge" our divider-in-chief spoke of?

Rush Limbaugh: Obama Wants The Republican Party To ‘Destroy Itself’  "With Democrats pressuring the GOP to agree to tax increases in the fiscal cliff negotiations, Limbaugh could reach no other conclusion than the Democrats are trying to facilitate the destruction of their opposition. It would be a confession by the GOP taxing the rich more would do a lot to improve the economy."

“If Obama succeeds and ends up getting a confession from Republicans that tax cuts are the problem, tax cuts are the cause, what happens to the next Republican who campaigns on tax cuts? Not going to have a prayer.”

Rush: Obama Wants Republican Party To Essentially Destroy Itself In Fiscal Cliff Deal:

Hey! Isn't that Elizabeth Warren's campaign bus?

Photo above from Legal Insurrection  "Using a sports team name which may be offensive to Native Americans, or ripping off their heritage and identity for your own professional gain?

"The team bus of the Liberal High School (KS) Redskins, in a photo take in early November:"

Professor,
On my way home this evening, I spotted Elizabeth Warren’s campaign/tour bus travelling on I-25 through Denver.
Also, if anyone cannot see the irony in this and get offended, I say “Tough.” The only thing to be offended at is the fraud imposed by a self-righteous liberal.

She could use this in her campaign for president. What? You sayin' it won't happen?

Chivalry Is Not Dead

The American Culture

"There was a time back in the day, as they say, when treating women with respect by opening doors for them or “women and children first” was de rigueur. There was no confusion about social custom when it came to how men treated women. The feminist movement that became popularized in the 1960s changed all that. By the 1980s a man didn’t know if he should open a door for a woman, carry her groceries, offer to pay for a meal, or help her in any number of ways without giving offense."....

...."But all is not lost. Not only does human nature very much like we find it described in the Bible still exist, the best of the Western tradition still exists in the hearts and minds of many Americans. Witness the tragic shooting at the Dark Knight showing at a movie theater in Colorado last summer. When the shooting started, three men instinctively jumped in front of their girlfriends and gave their lives that those women should live. I’m not sure what feminists could say against such manly and heroic examples, but I’m sure they’d find something."   Mike D'Virgilio; obviously a sexist male pig.
