Ret. Woburn Chief Emotionally Speaks Out About “Protests” at Candle Light Vigil Honoring Slain Woburn Officer Jack Maguire

The Valley Patriot

“Many times our lives have been threatened by people like those today that are marching. And they shouldn’t. They should be thanking us and thanking Jack who gave his life for this community.”  Ret. Woburn Chief Phil Mahoney

..."Emotions still run deep in the City of Woburn, Massachusetts four years after the murder of Woburn Police Officer Jack Maguire, who was shot and killed by a Deval Patrick parolee who had robbed the Kohl’s jewelry counter only a few day’s after his release." '''

World War 2, Dec 27, 1944

I'm so thankful today's Democrat Party is above such actions.


One more sad note about US race relations back in those days. If we could only right those wrongs from long ago, to those people who were victims at that time.

Sadly, there was this incident in the Ardennes: Battle of the Bulge: Massacre of 11 black soldiers  “ 'On 15 February 1945, I personally examined the bodies of the American Negro soldiers listed below,” Everett wrote. In a single-spaced, one-page memo, the assistant regimental surgeon chronicled their wounds. Most had been killed by blows to the head with a blunt instrument, probably a rifle stock. They had been stabbed repeatedly with bayonets. The finger of one man was almost completely severed. The soldiers had been shot multiple times."

These solders were known as The Wereth 11 of WWII

...The Wereth incident happened on the same day, about 10 miles away in the farming village of Wereth, Belgium, and was likely carried out by the same division under SS Major Joachim Peiper.
After walking 10 miles in the deep snow to reach American lines, Mr. Stewart and 10 other black soldiers from the 333rd arrived, cold and wet, at the farmhouse of Mathias Langer, the Wereth mayor who took them in and gave them bread.

But someone in town tipped off the Germans, and an hour later a four-man SS patrol pulled up. The unit marched the U.S. soldiers into a cow pasture and executed them. Army autopsies showed signs of torture, although no one but the executioners really knows what happened in that field...

Profanity-screaming Muslims attack German church-goers, media silent

The love affair Muslims had for Germany when the Nazis were killing Jews by the millions seems to have dissipated. 
I have long resented that peaceful Muslims do not publicly condemn acts such as this.  By the same token I have begun - at last! - to realize many of us Christians need to condemn the acts of the
Westboro "Baptist" Church  for their vicious behavior (but it is good to note they are an unusual group - not millions around the world). TD

Examiner.com

"According to an English translation of a report posted Friday at the German-language RP Online, a group of Muslim children, including one teenager, disrupted a Christmas service at St. Mary's Catholic church in the city of Mönchengladbach-Rheydt. According to the report, the Muslims disrupted the service shouting anti-Christian profanities. A Google search, however, found that aside from various conservative blogs, the news was completely ignored by the so-called "mainstream media.' "...  Hat tip to  Joe Newby

The 11 Most Politically Correct Moments on College Campuses in 2014

Katherine Timpf has done a great job compiling this list. Via College Insurrection

 

This is just a list of the subjects Ms. Timpf covers in more detail at the link.

"There are almost too many to choose from, but here are eleven of the most politically correct moments on college campuses in 2014:"

1. Princeton University students launched a microaggression-reporting service.

2. College students invented a roofie-detecting nail polish — only to be told that that’s actually also rape culture.

3. Students hosted an anti-rape-culture rally only to be told that’s — yep — actually also rape culture.

4. A school campaigned against “offensive” language such as “wuss,” “you guys,” and “derp” because it has an “oppressive impact on culture.”

5. Students opposed a female-to-male transgender candidate for class diversity officer because he’s a white man.

6. A school told its orientation officers not to use the word “freshman” because it promotes rape.

7. A liberal group demanded the school teach a mandatory transgender-sensitivity class to right the wrongs of colonial America.

8. A student newspaper’s editorial board wrote a whole piece about how racist bras are. 

9. The War on Tacos.

10. The War on Coconut Bras. The photo at right I used to think hilarious, but it kinda gags me now.

11. Harvard University was about to stop buying water machines from the Israeli company SodaStream because they might be a microaggression.

What can happen when you have a Muslim's baby

Debbie Schlussel   "No tears from me for Lidia Herrera, a former Cuban, who married a Bosnian Muslim. She’s whining that her young boy is now an ISIS terrorist, courtesy of her husband who joined the jihad. You would think a woman who escaped Cuban subjugation and tyranny would decline to choose yet more subjugation and tyranny that is inherent in Islam. But you would be wrong.

"The last time Lidia Herrera saw her son was in November last year when she gave him to his father before leaving home in Italy and going to visit relatives in Cuba. But instead of babysitting the boy, her estranged husband Ismar Mesinovic instead took his son to Syria where he signed up to fight for ISIS. And now, a year after the pair went missing, Miss Herrera has seen her son again for the first time as part of an online propaganda campaign for the terror group." ...

Obama, a One-Man Revolution; In his “fourth quarter,” he feels free to ignore popular opinion, the rule of law, and Congress.

Victor Davis Hanson

 

"Until now there were two types of peaceful American change. One was a president, like Franklin D. Roosevelt or Ronald Reagan, working with Congress to alter American life from the top down by passing a new agenda. The other was popular-reform pressure, as happened in the 1890s or 1960s, to change public opinion and force government to make new laws or change existing ones.

"Barack Obama has introduced a quite different, third sort of revolution. He seeks to enact change that both the majority of Americans and their representatives oppose. And he tries to do it by bypassing Congress through executive orders and presidential memoranda of dubious legality." ...

Battle of the Bulge; Dec 26th, 1944. Patton links up with Bastogne defenders

Patton Relieves Bastogne  ..."Enter "Old Blood and Guts," General Patton. Employing a complex and quick-witted strategy wherein he literally wheeled his 3rd Army a sharp 90 degrees in a counterthrust movement, Patton broke through the German lines and entered Bastogne, relieving the valiant defenders and ultimately pushing the Germans east across the Rhine."

Elsewhere on the battlefield, troops from the segregated 578th Field Artillery picked up rifles to support the 106th Golden Lions Division, and an outfit called the 761st “Black Panthers” became the first black tank unit to roll into combat under the command of General George S. Patton. As the battle wore on, Generals Dwight D. Eisenhower and John C.H. Lee called on black troops to cover the Allied losses at the front. Several thousand had volunteered by the time the engagement ended.

Colin Flaherty "Paige Stalker might be alive today had she learned about Routine Activity Theory."

... "While Paige and her friends were not aware of R.A.T., more and more teachers from around the country are required to teach its counterpart, Critical Race Theory: White racism is everywhere. White racism is permanent. White racism explains everything.

"In San Francisco during one such training session, a teacher said she and her colleagues were required to close their eyes and feel shame because their ancestors owned slaves.

“ 'We were told to put our heads down on the table, like little kids being punished,” the teacher said. “We were actually in a classroom, seated at kids' desks while they told us how we should be ashamed for the racism that created slavery and persists today.”

... That was when he took it upon himself to not only tell others to stop wishing everyone a “Merry Christmas,” but more. He lectured the airline attendants and the pilot as well on not giving particular greetings to everyone because it’s not right.
"Both the pilot and members of the staff attempted to calm the man down as he continued to get angrier and his rage built up. No one else wished the passenger a “Merry Christmas,” but he wasn’t in the mood to calm down.
"Actually, he refused to stop his lecture and that was when security was brought on board to escort him off the plane. The other passengers instantly began cheering and clapping as he was led back into the terminal." ...

Services are collapsing, prices are soaring, and medicines are scarce in towns and cities across the 'caliphate' proclaimed in Iraq and Syria by the Islamic State, residents say, belying the group’s boasts that it is delivering a model form of governance for Muslims.'

Are You Serious? Al Sharpton Complains About “Cheap Demagogues” Exploiting NYPD Deaths

Downtrend

 

"Topnotch reporting by the Gateway Pundit reveals that earlier today at the National Action Network headquarters in NYC, the Reverend Al Sharpton complained about those pesky “cheap demagogues who are trying to score cheap points off the deaths of” NYPD officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu. He also reportedly claimed that the recent protests in NYC have not been anti-police or part of a “kill police movement.”

"How charming, yes? This from the same sleazy hustler who has time and time again used every trick in the book to try and score cheap points in the game of racial politics."

"And yet Al Sharpton man has the nerve to complain about “cheap demagogues” trying to exploit the shooting of NYPD officers Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu?

"Let me quickly remind Al Sharpton of something:"


Al Sharpton's Marchers in New York City Chant "What Do We Want? Dead Cops!" 
"As Obama civil rights advisor Al Sharpton frantically tries to distance himself from the revenge execution style slayings of two NYPD officers Saturday afternoon in Brooklyn, keep in mind that just one week ago protestors at his march in New York City were chanting, "What do we want? Dead cops! When do what them? Now!' "

Radical Group Behind Chant: 'What Do We Want? Dead Cops'"The day before the nationwide Millions March rally on Dec. 13 — during which the "dead cop" chant was used — TMOC began organizing a sub-protest involving radicalized forces via social media, according to Ashoka Jegroo, a freelance reporter and graduate of the City University of New York’s journalism school."

"On Saturday, thousands gathered in Washington, D.C., to participate in an event headlined by MSNBC host Al Sharpton  to protest what they say is rampant abuse of blacks by police. Although Sharpton claimed he and his fellow activists were "not against the police," protesters in New York City had other ideas. According to a YouTube video posted Saturday, a number of protesters engaged in a chant calling for the murder of police officers."
