Mob Studies: Coming to a University Near You

Mike Adams

"Our nation is turning slowly into Greece. If you are not frightened by the idea of violent mobs negating free speech then you probably haven’t been watching the news. If you are all surprised that this is happening in America then you probably haven’t been reading my columns. I’ve been warning about it for years. Mob rule has been the norm on campus for years. Now, it is finally spilling over into the larger culture.

"You may have already heard about the most recent episode of campus mob violence in response to the Republican takeover of the University of North Carolina (UNC) higher administration. The Board of Governors (BOG) is now solidly Republican and so is the new UNC system president. Consequently, we are now getting down to business and making some long overdue program cuts. Naturally, not everyone is happy about the proposed budget cuts." . . .

Student Started Texting During Driving Test. Now Watch What The Instructor Does…

Daily Insider  "With all the PSAs and horrible statistics about texting and driving there are still young people around the world who die behind the wheel with their phones in their hands. This driving school opted for a different approach though… they forced their students to text and drive.

"You can watch the statistics all day long but you won’t understand how dangerous it is until you do it yourself. Watch if these drivers managed to pass the test and consider that the driving course is a walk in the park compared to the real life driving conditions.". . . 

Michael Horton on the Attraction of Trump

The Theology of Donald Trump  "Four words that reveal what his followers really believe."

. . . "While a theological analysis of other candidates would suggest many equally troubling assumptions of their evangelical followers, no candidate is more identified with the word evangelical as is Trump. The loyalty of his self-identified evangelical followers is especially startling to many.

"Let me suggest that the slender thread connecting Trump to the church is his occasional holiday appearances at Marble Collegiate Church, made famous by its pastor for 52 years, Norman Vincent Peale. Blending pop-psychology and spirituality, Peale’s The Power of Positive Thinking (1952) remained on TheNew York Times bestsellers list for 186 weeks. Nicknamed “God’s Salesman,” Peale was criticized for trivializing Christianity. Reinhold Niebuhr said that he “corrupts the gospel,” and that he helps people “feel good, while they are evading the real issues of life.' 

 . . . "A more recent exponent of a feel-good gospel, Joel Osteen, has called Donald Trump “a friend of our ministry” and “a good man.” Trump has previouslytweeted, “Being associated with Joel is my great honor—he’s a fantastic man!”

. . .  "It is not that Trump has caused this transformation in portions of the so-called “evangelical electorate.” Rather, his candidacy has revealed the inner secularization of significant portions of the movement, which surveys have documented for some time now. Four theological words highlight the problem." . . .

Michael Horton is J. G. Machen Professor of Theology at Westminster Seminary California, host of the White Horse Inn, and the author of Core Christianity: Finding Yourself in God’s Story.

Muslims March in Germany Chanting “With Allah’s Help, We Shall Conquer You”

Unless God intervenes, the result of all this will be destruction of majestic cathedrals, to be replaced by mosques; the loss of all great works of art and music and a great darkness descending on the continent that the Nazis themselves could not have imagined. TD

Jim Hoft   "They seem to be assimilating quite well, no?

"Muslims march down a German street chanting, “With Allah’s help, we shall conquer you!' ”

. . . "While these things are nothing new, they should give us to ponder -when historians look back at these events, what will they think? If anything, we are witnessing the real-time death of one society in the same way that many previous civilization have perished- that is, unless the Europeans stand up for their Faith and lives in the same way their ancestors did in ages past…" . . .

Does none of this matter to those who adore this President?

Departed  "Pirro found herself the source of controversy once again when she discussed the attacks on the Western world at the hands of radical Islamists. She cited specifically the Philadelphia police attack and the terrorist attack in San Bernardino.

"Pirro commented that the Obama administration and Islamic radicals might as well be on the same side, because it is clear our ‘leader’ is not going to do anything to prevent these acts in the future.
Watch her comments below and tell us what you think. Do you agree with Pirro?"

American Silliness April 2/ 2016

Can we not call all this the the intellectual and spiritual decline of Western civilization and the rise of 6th-century barbarianism?

The Left Seeks End of Sex-Segregation Everywhere   
"Gender dysphoria*"  Really? Do these terms get made up by some activist speaker so he, or she, or you-name-it can enjoy the ego trip of seeing campus "intellectuals" using their term to fake intelligent thought?

. . . "If objectively male persons who are uncomfortable with their male bodies are permitted in women’s private areas, why shouldn’t all men be permitted in there? What difference does it make to women if the man in the stall next to them likes his anatomy or not?"
. . . 
"While progressives are exalting subjective feelings, they should bear in mind that many men and women content with their respective maleness and femaleness have feelings too -- feelings of modesty -- which do not make them heartless, ignorant bigots no matter how many times those epithets are hurled at them." *Ill at ease; uncomfortable

. . . "Finally, let’s ask the presidential candidates if they support the 10th Amendment right of states to protect the privacy and safety of women and girls from cross-dressing sexual predators in public restrooms."
Watch: Men say we have nothing to fear from them in our locker rooms, bathrooms, and sleeping spaces.

The Solar Industry Is Dying. Good Riddance.  "If you still own shares in solar energy it’s probably a sign that you’ve been in the sun too long: the sector is tanking – and deservedly so – as reality dawns that this is a Potemkin industry, an Enron of a con-trick, whose survival depends not on the energy it generates but on the subsidies it squeezes from the taxpayer."

Muslims Team Up With Black Lives Matter

Fix This Nation   "Two of the most virulently anti-American groups in the country – the Black Lives Matter movement and the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) have joined forces in Sacramento, creating an ugly hybrid that makes one wish the Big One would go ahead and hit the San Andreas Fault.

"The two groups are teaming up to march on the California Capitol, hoping to persuade Governor Jerry Brown to sign a bill requiring police officers to report the “perceived race or ethnicity, gender, and approximate age of the person” they stop in traffic. The bill also expands the ban on racial profiling to include “racial and identity” profiling.

Some of the luminaries of CAIR are: 

Randall Todd Royer – 20 years in prison for helping jihadists get to Pakistan for terrorist training.Bassem Khafagi – Deported due to ties to terrorism financiers, visa fraud, and bank fraud.Imam Siraj Wahaj – Co-conspirator in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing.

It’s pretty sad that we’re at a point in American history where these two groups are considered champions of civil rights. In fact, it’s more than sad. It’s downright frightening.

To see the sheer hypocrisy of Islamists, consider this "#BlackLivesMatter Toolkit for Muslims

And this video shows what anti-American political pressure looks like. Think of the price that will be paid by those who have the courage to stand up to this:

WH Censors French President Saying ‘ISLAMIST Terrorism’

MRCTV  "The White House website has censored a video of French Pres. Francois Hollande saying that “Islamist terrorism” is at the “roots of terrorism.”

"The White House briefly pulled video of a press event on terrorism with Pres. Obama, and when it reappeared on the WhiteHouse.gov website and YouTube, the audio of Hollande’s translator goes silent, beginning with the words “Islamist terrorism,” then begins again at the end of his sentence.

"Even the audio of Hollande saying the words “Islamist terrorism” in French have, apparently, been edited from the video.

"According to the official White House transcript of Hollande’s remarks, Hollande refers to “Islamist terrorism.” The audio of the bold text in brackets is missing from the video – the only point in the video were the audio is absent:

“ 'We are also making sure that between Europe and the United States there can be a very high level coordination.

“But we're also well aware that the roots of terrorism, [Islamist terrorism, is in Syria and in Iraq.  We therefore have to act both in Syria and in Iraq, and this is what we're doing within the framework of the coalition.]  And we note that Daesh is losing ground thanks to the strikes we've been able to launch with the coalition.”

"Watch the video of Hollande's censored comment:"

Notice how the translation goes silent at the part where Hollande utters the words-which-must-not-be-spoken.

Peace out, fools! Obama plays the clown by flashing the peace sign for nuclear security summit 'team photo'... and gets a very unimpressed look from David Cameron and bemused world leaders

UK Daily Mail

"Surrounded by world leaders, President Barack Obama gave the peace sign as they gathered for a 'team photo' during a two-day nuclear summit.

"All eyes were on Obama as 54 other presidents and prime ministers joined him in Washington, DC, for crunch talks on Iran and terrorist threats involving nuclear weapons.

"There was one set of eyes, however, that was particularly focused on the President - those of Prime Minister David Cameron.

"Relations between Cameron and Obama have been strained since the President criticized the Prime Minister for getting 'distracted' during the crisis in Libya and turning it into a 's**t show'.

"There was more than metaphorical distance between the pair at today's summit, with Cameron only able to glare at Obama from across the podium as he was elbowed out to the edge of the stage. " . . .

Donald Trump’s clumsy abortion pandering alienates both sides Read more: http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2016/03/donald_trumps_clumsy_abortion_pandering_alienates_both_sides.html#ixzz44YH68DGa Follow us: @AmericanThinker on Twitter | AmericanThinker on Facebook

"I doubt that the pro-life movement will ever forgive Trump for making them look bad, revealing his lack of any serious thought on the issue.  How can they trust such a hollow panderer?  And his inability to parry Matthews may raise doubts in the minds of his supporters about his ability to handle the rigors of a campaign that promises to be vicious, fast-moving, with a very cunning opponent."

American Thinker  "Donald Trump’s Teflon™ coating may have worn off with his comments on punishing women for abortion yesterday, despite his campaign’s walking them back in two separate statements.

"Here is the report MSNBC issued prior to airing the town hall, which immediately created a firestorm among pro-life and abortion rights advocates:"

"Charles Krauthammer, on Special Report, cited Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council:

"Anybody who's been on this issue who knows the pro-life community, who knows what the arguments are and what people really believe, knows that is not true. That is not the position of anybody on the pro-life side. That is the position that the pro-choice people attribute -- this kind of hard-heartedness -- to the pro-life side. And that's apparently what Trump imbibed."
Krauthammer said that Trump's "lack of curiosity" is the problem, noting that the candidate also failed to learn more about the nuclear triad in an interval between debates.

Arrest George Soros

"Use existing criminal and civil laws to shut down his anti-American juggernaut."

Frontpage

"It is time to hold radical ringleader George Soros to account for the growing civil unrest that he has helped to foment in this presidential election cycle and his efforts to shut down Donald Trump rallies using physical force and intimidation.

"Soros, the billionaire speculator, is the preeminent funder of the activist Left in America, which means he is the Number One funder of the domestic terrorism that is part and parcel of the Left. " . . .

"But when Soros funds activist groups involved in illegitimate efforts to deny Americans their right to participate in the political process he crosses a line. 

There is no right to riot or to silence one's political adversaries.

"Although the right to peacefully protest is enshrined in the Construction," law professor John F. Banzhaf III writes, "there is no constitutional or other legal right to commit criminal acts to make a point." 

"And as legal analyst Andrew Napolitano wrote after unruly Bernie Sanders supporters and other left-wing activists forced the cancelation of the Trump rally March 11 at the University of Illinois at Chicago, the law imposes on police "an affirmative obligation to take all reasonable steps to protect the speaker’s right to speak, the audience’s right to hear and the protesters’ right to protest." Put another way, "protest of political speech is itself protected speech, but protest cannot be so forceful or dominant that it vetoes the speaker."

"Fox News legal analyst Peter Johnson Jr. added that "The First Amendment does not confer upon you or me or [Fox host] Steve Doocy the right to go to someone's rally and try to disrupt it, or destroy it, or to pull apart posters, or to start fights, or to attempt to commit an assault on a presidential candidate." 

"An added benefit of civil proceedings is that they would "open the door to discovery, including those aimed at verifying concerns expressed in various media that those with even deeper pockets are involved in the planning, funding, and/or execution of these criminal disruptions."
"In other words, George Soros."

 

Charles Krauthammer on The four foreign policies

WaPo  Outline below:

. . . "Herewith, four candidates and four schools: pacifist, internationalist, unilateralist and mercantilist." . . .

"(1) Bernie Sanders, pacifist."

. . . "Emblematic was the Nov. 14 Democratic debate , which was supposed to focus on the economy but occurred the day after the Paris massacre. Sanders objected to starting the debate with a question about Paris. He did not prevail, however, and answered the first question with some anti-terror pablum that immediately gave way to an impassioned attack on his usual “handful of billionaires.' ” . . .

"Don’t be surprised if President Sanders hands Guantanamo Bay over to the Castros, although Alaska looks relatively safe for now."
"Closest historical analog: George McGovern."

"(2) Hillary Clinton, internationalist."

"The “Clinton/Obama” foreign policy from Ukraine to Iran to the South China Sea has been a demonstrable failure. But in trying to figure out what President Clinton would do in the future, we need to note that she often gave contrary advice, generally more assertive and aggressive than President Obama’s, that was overruled, most notably keeping troops in Iraq beyond 2011 and early arming of the Syrian rebels." . . .

"Closest historical analog: the Bill Clinton foreign policy of the 1990s."

("3) Ted Cruz, unilateralist. 
"The most aggressive of the three contenders thus far. Wants post-Cold War U.S. leadership restored. Is prepared to take risks and act alone when necessary. Pledges to tear up the Iran deal, cement the U.S.-Israel alliance and carpet bomb the Islamic State. 

"Overdoes it with “carpet” — it implies Dresden — although it was likely just an attempt at rhetorical emphasis. He’s of the school that will not delay action while waiting on feckless allies or farcical entities like the U.N.

"Closest analog: Ronald Reagan."

"(4) Donald Trump, mercantilist." 
". . . "You could put the Sanders, Clinton and Cruz foreign policies on a recognizable ideological spectrum, left to right. But not Trump’s. It inhabits a different space because it lacks any geopolitical coherence. It’s all about money. He sees no particular purpose for allies or foreign bases. They are simply a financial drain.
". . . "Thus, if Japan and South Korea don’t pony up more money for our troops stationed there, we go home. The possible effects on the balance of power in the Pacific Rim or on Chinese hegemonic designs don’t enter into the equation.
"Same for NATO. If those free-riding European leeches don’t give us more money too, why stick around? Concerns about tempting Russian ambitions and/or aggression are nowhere in sight.
This last commentary finishes with Trump's threat to bomb the ---- out of the Islamic State, but does revert to his business goals:. . . "Yet even here he can’t quite stifle his mercantilist impulses, insisting that after crushing the Islamic State, he’ll keep their oil. Whatever that means."
"Closest historical analog: King Philip II of Spain (1556-1598)."

"On Jan. 20, one of these four contenders will be sworn in as president. And one of these four approaches to the world will become the foreign policy of the United States.
"Don’t say you weren’t warned."
