Revealed: Muslim convert who shot dead Canadian soldier is the 'privately-educated son of country's immigration chief,

 Had his passport revoked and has 'links to Syrian terrorist'

UK Daily Mail

 

..."Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, the Muslim convert who fatally shot Corporal Nathan Cirillo - a 24-year-old father standing guard at Ottawa's War Memorial - and injured another officer, was a petty criminal and the son of a leading Canadian immigration official.

"Born in Quebec as Michael Joseph Hall and raised in Laval, just north of Montreal, the young man lived a quiet childhood of private schools and suburban homes, with a mother who was a high ranking federal employee.

"Then, after years of run-ins with the law, he converted to Islam."...

Time to start deracializing Ferguson

 

NY Post

... " If the grand jurors find the justifiable-homicide narrative plausible, it’s highly likely that the case against Wilson will evaporate.
"What if the officer’s explanation turns out to be true? What if race had nothing at all to do with this incident? What if it was just a cop shooting a threatening young male?
"If so, then the media and the Obama administration have some explaining to do.
"The media jumped on the racial scenario with gleeful abandon." ...

 

This Muslim Woman Tried to Wear Her Veil in Public…But She Wasn’t Expecting This to Happen

Conservative Tribune.    "Since 2011, France has enforced a so-called “burka ban” on Muslims covering their faces in public, making it the first European country to take such measures against publicly-demonstrated Islamic dress codes. About five million Muslims live in France.

"Offenders in and around Paris usually receive a fine, but on Oct. 3, the ban reached a new level of enforcement, as a Muslim woman was kicked out of the Bastille Opera house after refusing to uncover her face."...

Democrats Join The Ferguson Lynch Mob Right As The Case Against Officer Wilson Collapses

From Lucianne:
"Everyone who hasn’t drunk the progressive Kool-Aid is aware that during elections Democrats resort to the race card to scare African Americans, for whose intelligence they have limitless contempt, into voting for them. If Republicans are elected, their propaganda claims, “black churches will burn” or the racial clock will be turned back to the era of segregation, an era that Democrats happen to have been directly responsible for. This year it’s the mythical threat white policeman allegedly pose to black youth, as Democrats and their media enablers encourage a “lynch mob” mentality — as Howard Kurtz put it recently —"

Daily Caller

 

 ... "The autopsy report further shows that Michael Brown’s hands were not in the air in a posture of surrender when he was shot – as the Ferguson lynch mob claims — but that the 6’4” 292lb individual was advancing on the much smaller officer, less than twenty feet away. In other words, the autopsy report supports Officer Wilson’s claims that there was a violent struggle and that he shot Wilson first with the intent to warn him to stop and finally – when he failed to do so — to stop him." ...

Carol Costello, the media and the Palins

 Washington Post Calls for CNN's Carol Costello to Apologize to Palin Family On-Air

Supposed Feminist Carol Costello Loves the Sound of Bristol Palin Attacked by Drunken Men

Quoting excerpts from Rush Limbaugh, who knows a thing or two about Carol Costello:
"What happened was Bristol Palin, the daughter of Sarah Palin, got beat up.  She basically got beat up and ended up calling the cops, and Carol Costello at CNN just thought it was the greatest news that she'd ever heard.  Oh, yeah, Carol talked about this as being something that we hadn't enjoyed in a long, long time." ...

COSTELLO:  Okay, I'm just gonna come right out and say it.  This is quite possibly the best minute-and-a-half of audio we've ever come cross -- well, come across in a long time, anyway. (laughing)

... "Now, here's Carol Costello, a supposed feminist, a supposed opponent of violence against women. I mean, would just be angry as hell if any other woman had been treated this way. Had they been attacked and it was on audiotape and she was playing it, she would be righteously indignant and probably blaming the Republican War on Women. But here she's eating it up. Here she just loves it, a supposed feminist, a supposed opponent of violence against women, presented an audiotape of a young woman describing being attacked and beaten by a bunch of drunken men as the most delicious thing she had ever heard in her life.

...“ 'I never wanted to become the poster child for anything, let alone domestic violence. But my blood is boiling, so when I say shut up, I’m venting at all those people out there who insist on blaming the victim,” Costello wrote with righteous fury directed at the National Football League (and the morning show Fox & Friends) over what she considered an insufficient level of concern for an incident involving Ray Rice striking his fiancé."

Here is how ABC covered the story

If the Palin family is fair game, why does Joe Biden get a pass for the conduct of his son?
Mr. Cooke does not hold Sarah Palin in high regard, but has this to say about the press treatment of her:
"All in all, I can think of few people in public life who have been as disgracefully hounded as has Palin; and nor, for that matter, can I recall a single figure in the past decade who has been subjected to self-serving double standards by the press and by elite culture writ large." ...

Debate crowd loudly laughs at “War Against Women” charge by female Dem challenger

Legal Insurrection

 A new low point for Martha Robertson’s failing campaign.

... "When a candidate loses credibility, it’s hard to regain.

At the candidate debate tonight, that lost credibility was evidenced when Robertson accused Reed of being part of the War Against Women. She actually used the phrase “you’re part of the War against Women.”

The crowd laughed so hard, Robertson had to ask for more time." ...

Mary Landrieu – Servant of Obama

ATRS   "Senator Mary Landrieu – Servant of Obama, Not Her People (read the article here – Freedom Outpost)
"Why is she running away from President Obama?  Bad memory?"

The Freedom Outpost, um, post:  Senator Mary Landrieu – Servant of Obama, Not Her People

"...Landrieu obtained $300 million, which she later claimed was money to be used for Katrina. Senator Landrieu voted for Obamacare, even though 70% of the people in Louisiana said they did not want her to. ...

 ...

 "Let's look at the most recent votes by Senator Mary Landrieu." ...

...

"She joined Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) and others to do away with the Senate rules so the majority could pass the nominations for Obama. Senator Landrieu does not want you to think she votes with Obama all the time, even though she does! That is where part of her lies begin to catch up with her. "  Full article
