• ‘Bigoted, Religious [Zealots]‘: High School Senior Allegedly Expelled, Charged With Felonies Over Gay Relationship With ‘Consenting’ Fellow Student

  @ Bootleg

  I think that the presentation is reasonable and factual. You don’t agree with the lesbian subject matter.

  I feel very sad for the people involved in this mess. All of them. I understand their points of view, but I think that the parents of the younger girl could have handled the situation differently – and much better. Everyone will be further damaged because of their actions, and it has probably cost them their relationship with their daughter. No good can come out of this at all. What a mess.

  It’s a sad day for all…

  @ Grandma

  When I was in an Oklahoma pub one night, I sang Lee Greenwood’s “Proud to be an American” on Kareoke because I really liked the song.

  Some people took exception to the fact that I was a Kiwi singing this patriotic song. I was temporarily in a bit of trouble. Most people didn’t mind, though…

  I imagine that was among the first things to be ripped out and tossed aside – along with such things as the bust of Sir Winston Churcill…

• C’est La Vie! Thousands of Wealthy French Taxed More Than They Earned

  If a government taxes its citizens at a rate higher than 50%, does that make it a communist country?

  At what level of total tax rate can a country be considered to be communist?

• The Inspiring Story of What an Arizona Cop Did to a Teen She Found Walking 9 Miles

  May 14, 2013 at 11:16am

  After reading story after story featuring a seemingly endless procession of walking fundimental orifices, one starts to feel a little depressed.

  Then a story like this arrives and one’s faith in the basic goodness of civilised humanity is restored.

  Thank you for posting this Ms Klimas, I feel much better now…

• ‘Unfortunate & ‘Inappropriate’: Iran to Preside Over UN Disarmament Body — and the U.S. Plans to Boycott

  May 14, 2013 at 10:54am

  In reply to Chancellor.

  Well, Keaton, there are two ways of looking at this. Firstly, the UN policies that have affected western policymaking, and the UN attempts at doing the same.

  Sustainable development HAS affected US policy. Not only at the federal level, but also at local government level. The EPA is using UN policy in its own policy developments. They have prevented landowners from using their land as they reasonably wish, and have caused a drought in areas of California. The UN’s global warming “remedies” have cost your nation hundreds of billions of dollars for a crisis that even the UN itself now admits isn’t real.

  Then there are the things that the UN is trying to do. They have developed policy, promoted by the current administration, to disarm private citizens the world over. Soundly defeated in the US, thank God – until their next attempt.

  They have developed a policy known as “Law of the Sea treaty (LOST) which many nations signed, but the US did not, that would give the UN direct control over every ship on the high seas and every mineral and food resource in it.

  The list goes on and on. The UN was begun as a means of negotiating remedies between combative nations, a very worthwhile objective, but it is now, by its own admission, attempting to set itself up as the world’s government. A government based on Marxist ideology, and one that you and I will have no voting power over.

  A bit like the EEC on steroids…

  I have studied the history of the UN at great length, Keaton. What would you like to know?

• ‘Sinister’ and ‘Chilling’: MSNBC Host Takes Aim at DOJ’s Secretive Seizure of AP Phone Records

  It hasn’t been explicitly stated, and I was wondering if this is actually a criminal act.

  Does anybody know?
