Things like this are why someone announcing 'Child Protective Services'

should result in locking the door and calling a lawyer.  Possibly opening fire.

EVERY idiot involved in this, from the cops to the CPS clowns, should be fired.  And the CPS clowns should then be flogged through the town, and then hanged.
“The social workers did not have reasonable cause to believe the children were at risk of serious bodily harm or molestation,” a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit wrote. “Therefore, viewing the record most favorably to the Demarees, the defendants acted unconstitutionally in taking the three children away from home without judicial authorization.”
And just how did that happen?
...Anticipating child exploitation charges to be brought, she decided to take the children into emergency temporary custody. Though she lacked a court order or warrant, her supervisor approved the decision. The two older children were driven to one foster home, the 18-month-old to another, according to court documents. Eventually, they were moved to their grandparents’ house.
Whipping post.  Whip.  Noose.  CPS clowns; some assembly required.

How effing stupid and 'sensitive' are people? (Link fixed)

This effing stupid.

This is... 'stupid' doesn't really cover it.

Few days ago

rolled the bike out, because the next couple of days would be good riding weather.

Find nail in back tire.

Hunt around, find new tire, get installed.

This morning, drop tire gauge.  Then find it's reading wonky. 

Joy.

Ma Nature's about to give a reminder

of who really runs the planet.

I once read some idiot claim that 'man can do more damage to the environment than any natural event can!'  I asked if that included, say, the Deccan Traps, or Toba; never got an answer.

Is there ANYONE at high level in the EffingBI who isn't a corrupt bastard?

Court documents recently filed by the government further rock the credibility of Russia Special Counsel Robert Mueller because they show that as FBI Director Mueller he worked to cover up the connection between a Florida Saudi family and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The documents reveal that Mueller was likely involved in publicly releasing deceptive official agency statements about a secret investigation of the Saudis, who lived in Sarasota, with ties to the hijackers. A Florida journalism nonprofit uncovered the existence of the secret FBI investigation that was also kept from Congress. 

Under Mueller’s leadership, the FBI tried to discredit the story, publicly countering that agents found no connection between the Sarasota Saudi family and the 2001 terrorist plot. The reality is that the FBI’s own files contained several reports that said the opposite, according to the Ft. Lauderdale-based news group’s ongoing investigation. Files obtained by reporters in the course of their lengthy probe reveal that federal agents found “many connections” between the family and “individuals associated with the terrorist attacks on 9/11/2001.” The FBI was forced to release the once-secret reports because the news group sued in federal court when the information wasn’t provided under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
This is the piece of shit the Democrats and never-Trumpers are so desperate to keep running the 'collusion with Russia' investigation.

I'll throw in: is there ANYONE running ANY federal agency(especially IRS, FBI, ATF, NSA, CIA) who can be trusted about ANYTHING?

Well, isn't she a wonderful little islamist?

A former St. Catherine University student charged with setting fires on the college’s St. Paul campus told police she did it because she’d “been reading about the U.S. military destroying schools in Iraq or Afghanistan and she felt that she should do exactly the same thing,” according to a criminal complaint filed Friday.


So the Democrats have come up with a lovely idea—sure, we’ll let you pay the troops. Just give us DACA. Or, to translate this so it’s unadorned—we’ll let you pay the people who protect America as long as you institute a key policy for destroying America. If the Democrats were laying siege to a castle—which in some ways is exactly what they’re doing, since they seek, essentially, to starve our military into submission— this would be something like saying “we’ll be happy to break our siege, as soon as you open the gates and let us in”.


Heard about this interview the other day, and if you want a fine example of why 'journalist' has become a cuss word, here it is.  It's... amazing.  The title is "Why Can't People Hear What Jordan Peterson Is Saying?", and the answer is 'Because the journalists don't like what he's saying, and lie about it.'

San Francisco PD: "We don't care about you, but

someone steals from Apple and all stops are off!"

Really, you morons?  And if one of your idiots had killed one of the family, would we hear "I saw his hand move and felt we were in danger" or some other excuse?

So now "Make those messages disappear before anyone sees them!" is now

'failed to preserve the messages'.

Is there anyone out there who still trusts the EffingBI about anything? 
And if there is, what the hell is wrong with them?

Saturday, late,

you know what that means

I'd say the gator won

Late last week a group of golfers at Fiddler’s Creek Golf Club in Naples, Florida came across just that. The group was on the tenth hole when they spotted a large alligator munching on an equally large python which was wrapped around it’s body.


If this information is correct, this asshat committed assault with a deadly weapon, at the least, I'd say.  And I'd imagine there will be questions about investigating this.


Blood dancers gonna dance, any opportunity.  Dirtbags.


If there's already this much evidence, it'll be interesting what else discovery finds.  And Google deserves every bit of trouble they get over this crap.

Friday evening,

and it's not bad out there(at least this part of the country); so if you're out, enjoy it and take care of the data analysis later.

Gee, I wonder why a party-line vote...

A review of a classified document outlining what is described as extensive Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act abuse was made available to all House members Thursday and the revelations could lead to the removal of senior officials in the FBI and Department of Justice, several sources with knowledge of the document stated. These sources say the report is “explosive,” stating they would not be surprised if it leads to the end of Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel investigation into President Trump and his associates.

The House Intelligence Committee passed the motion along party lines Thursday to make the classified report alleging extensive ‘FISA Abuse’ related to the controversial dossier available to all House members.
Why, you'd think there was something in it that one party didn't want people to know about.

"Hey, just because we're public servants doesn't mean

you get to see what we do!  Even(especially) if we screwed up."

Also works out to "You can make us wear cameras, but you can't look at what they show us doing."

Speaking of stupid people in places of authority,

Biological women who legally define themselves as men will not be routinely scanned for breast and cervical cancer, even if they retain these organs and remain at risk, the National Health Service (NHS) has said.

However, at the same time, biological men who regard themselves as women are being invited for cervical smear tests – even though it is impossible for them to have a cervix – an official guidebook states.
"What the hell?" you might think.
So-called ‘trans health adviser’ Aedan Wolton featured in a related NHS Choices video and blog post, where he claimed that smear tests could be uncomfortable for “trans masculine people” who are biological women as it could offend how they perceive themselves.

He also claimed that words and references to the biological organs of men and women “can trigger feelings of gender dysphoria” in the transgendered.
Because 'sensitivity' and 'feels' are far more important than, say, protecting some people from disease and wasting time and money on useless tests for others.

Kim has a piece on pocket pistols,

'Handy, but don't depend on them', but I think he missed one of their prime reasons for being: winter.  A heavy coat can make it difficult to access your belt-carried sidearm, so something that'll fit in a pocket  and is easy to reach and draw can be very handy.  No, it won't be as powerful as, say, a M&P or a Sig P320, but it'll be enough to, at the least, buy you time.

Ok, so Sorbo wasn't even going to that Comicon

that he was banned from...  Apparently the new virtue-signalling thing is banning people who don't know you and weren't coming.  Because feels and stupid.

Durbin's lied before about what was said in meetings, so

not only is there "Why believe him?", but anyone who'd trust him at a meeting is a fool.

Also: it's long beyond entertaining and well into "Fuck this and fuck you, asshole" territory to watch someone have a fit calling you a "Trumper!" when you point out that something is either flatly bullshit, or not to be trusted without some kind of proof.


So, the GAO did a study trying to illegally buy guns online; didn't work.  So now the Democrats are whining that "You didn't do the study right!"  Because it damages one of their favorite talking points.  Get this from Schatz:
He continued, “Our view is that it is still absolutely possible to legally purchase guns online. The way that the GAO analysts did it is, they announced to the sellers, ‘Hey I’d like to buy some guns illegally.’ I think the sellers are wise enough to that to decline, so we did not agree with their methodology, but we’ll continue to work on this issue.”
Got that?  Someone does what the Democrats have claimed is done, and couldn't buy a gun.  So "You didn't do it right!"

And doing business legitimately doesn't count either:
TheDC asked Sen. Schatz if he took issue with these websites that operate legitimately and he stated he could not address the issue at that time.
Translation: "I hate them and want them out of business no matter what, but I can't say that outright."
Once again: The hell they 'don't want to take your guns'.


So: guy quite possibly lied on the forms(felony, let us remember), and then writes a story about GUN!  And this is part of it:
You could almost say that a gun wants to be shot. I know that sounds like a magic busload of hippie nonsense, and I have no doubt that experienced gun collectors would scoff at the idea, but I swear I felt it. Not like it was calling out to me or anything, but as soon as it was in the room, it was the main thing about that room, a temperature raiser, an undeniable source of power.
Why yes, it IS hippie bullshit.
And don't worry, it gets worse.

On that lawsuit against Google:

There are expensive, time-consuming, exasperating lawsuits, and then there are radioactive lawsuits that poison everyone who comes within a mile of them. And this lawsuit almost certainly falls into the latter category.
Personally, I certainly hope so.


The whole attitude behind 'zero-tolerance' crap:
“I asked: ‘In the time it would have taken him to go get a teacher, could that kid’s throat have been slit?’ She said yes, but that’s beside the point. That we ‘don’t condone heroics in this school.’ ”
Yeah.  Better some kid wind up in the hospital or dead than your precious policy be violated.


" 'Due process'?  How dare you violate our Narrative by calling for that!"  More leftist autophagy.


Some words about third-world shitholes from someone who's been there.

The ghosts of Ruby Ridge and Waco are still around, and still causing problems.

For damned good reasons.

Not long ago I'd have said "Until the EffingBI and DoJ clean house and start firing and prosecuting personnel who lie and break laws and violate the public trust, this is only going to get worse."  Problem is, the idiots in charge- and a bunch of their minions- basically considered such statements and said "Hold my daiquiri and watch this!"

So now we have another case of feds lying in sworn statements, hiding/screwing with evidence, and otherwise doing things that they put plain old citizens in jail for, and whining about being caught.  And demanding respect when they've thrown away any reason they should be trusted.  Yeah, I don't doubt there are honest FBI agents who don't abuse their authority, or break the law; there are DoJ lawyers who don't do those things either.  Guess what?

It doesn't bloody matter.  Because all the ones who DO do those things get away with it.  Over and over.  And completely screw- no, they take integrity and honor, wipe their ass with them, and flush them.  And, knowing that, why should anyone trust ANY of them?  Basic statement: "You may be one of the honest ones who don't do that crap.  But since I don't know you, and don't know if that's true, then I'd be a fool to trust a word you say."

Comey and his fellow shitheads, and the corrupt bastards at DoJ, have trashed trust.  And I really don't know if it'll be possible to rebuild it.  Which is a really depressing thought.

"We don't want THOSE people here, they have badthink virus!"

East Coast Comicon promoter Cliff Galbraith bragged on Facebook about turning Kevin Sorbo away from Comicon in New Jersey this year based on Sorbo's relationship with conservative talk show host Sean Hannity.
Such wonderful people, aren't they?

Or, as Mike Williamson has put it, "Remember when the left cared about free speech?  Me neither."


Because 'Diversity above all else!'  Except when someone doesn't have the proper 'progressive' attitudes, THEN diversity is bad...
A former dean is suing the University of Missouri School of Medicine for wrongful termination, alleging that she was fired because of her race and skepticism of certain diversity initiatives.
