• The Immigrant ‘Welfare Queen’ Myth

  April 16, 2013 at 8:48am

  In reply to wraith67.

  You are absolutely correct. This study shows a “savings” when immigrants use welfare as opposed to native born citizens, but its still a cost. Its like when your wife comes home with a new $200 dollar dress @ 50% off and says, I just saved you $100. No, you spent $100.00, now take it back to the store. The sample size of 100 people in each group is also suspect. Did they cherry pick immigrants with relative few health problems to dervie that cost and native born with a myriad of health issues to show a higher cost? Possibly. 100 people out of 20 million illegal immigrants is not a good sample size for any decent confidence level.

• ACLU Wins: Jesus Portrait That Spawned Controversy Has Been Removed From Ohio Public School

  April 3, 2013 at 1:13pm

  Even if you are not religious or belong to different faith, Jesus is and always will be a historical figure. Should we then not show a picture of Jesus because someone attending or teaching in the school is a Jew or Muslim? If you say yes, then should the school also take down the picture of Barrack Obama that they most assuredly have displayed as to not offend any conservative students, parents, or faculty? Where does it end? We, as a country, need to stop changing ourselves to placate the overly sensitive minority.

• 5 Things We Know About the White Supremacist Group That May Be Behind Recent Texas Slayings

  The real point being missed here is that our prison systems allow gangs to be run out of them. Prison should be about punishment. It should be a place a person self rehabilitates because they never want to return there. It should be a living hell for the inmates, at varying degrees depending on offense. They should not be given yards to comingle in, work out and become stronger than their captors in, have law libraries so they can learn how to sue their captors, and yes form and operate gangs from. These animals should be locked in their cell, fed in their cell, clean themselves in their cell. In other words, never leave the confines of their prison cell…ever. They should be fed pink slime sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Any attempt to form a gang or do any criminal activity while incarcerated should result in immediate punishment. Perhaps hang them on the wall by arm chains for a day or so. Break their spirt first, only then can you rehabilitate.

• Flat Tax or Fair Tax?

  January 31, 2013 at 8:12am

  In reply to layosh.

  A black market is not really a concern with the Fair Tax. As federal taxes are removed, those hidden taxes are removed from the price. Add the fair tax and the prices go back to roughly where they were. The net effect being that there is no significant increase in price while you no longer have money withheld from your paycheck. There is zero incentive to create a black market.

• Is the International Space Station Attracting UFOs? See the Videos

  Clearly, this is a reflection on the glass. No story here

• Are UFOs Flying Over Denver? See the Video Captured by Both an Anonymous Tipster and a Local News Station

  November 14, 2012 at 10:10am

  I am a believer in the UFO phenomenon, but I also know BS when I see it. These are definitiely insects relatively close to the lens. At one point in the video you see an insect really close to the lens as it moves down the screen. Insects explain the sloppy flight patterns and speed. No intelligent being would make a vehicle that tumbles when it flies. That tumble is a trick of light off the insects wings and being out of focus. This is akin to people who believe in the so-called rods which have been proven again and again to be insects. Or people that believe in orbs when they are really lens flares. People see what they want to see but you must be scientifically prudent when seeking proof of something.

• Can You Detect the Trick PETA Pulled on the Miami Marlins in This Message?

  April 5, 2012 at 12:18pm

  Really? What exactly are they opposed to? Catch and release, or fishing altogether? Fish is a staple food in the diet of billions across the globe. Jesus, the son of God ate fish. He miraculously multiplied the fish to feed the multitudes. Do they really believe that there is enough vegetation in the world to accommodate 6 billion non-meat-eating people? It’s pure insanity.

• ‘Clusterf**k’ & ‘Mass Cult’: See the Epic Compilation of Atheist Interviews from the Reason Rally

  March 26, 2012 at 12:38pm

  I wish the interviewer, if time allotted, would have asked these people if they believe that aliens are involved in our everyday affairs, or if reptilians had ufo bases underground, or if the “illuminati” was conspiring against them. I bet these fools believe in global warming too.

• Beck Unloads on ESPN, ABC for Firing ‘Chink in the Armor’ Writer: ‘Look at How They Have Corrupted This System’

  Even the blaze blocked the word “*******” in context of the Keebler elves. I’m sure it’s an automated filter but c’mon!

  It’s sad how overly sensitive we have become. Even if the guy said it in a double context, it’s not racist. However it is funny!! I wasn’t upet over “Honkeys for Herman” or “Crackers for Cain.” in fact I’ve heard people say ******* on TV a lot. Perhaps we should be firing some of those racist little bastards over at Keebler.
