We have to stand with Kirk Cameron

It's time like these that conservatices should stand strongly with Kirk and let him know that the majority is with him. The cultural elite may have the homossexual agenda in their hearts, but the hearts of the common people stand with truth, decency, health and family values.

Stand Strong Kirk!

The UK's New Law: Internet Bans For Criminals And "A Wider Group Of Offenders"

The UK has a brand new law that enables police and courts to make use of what are called “cyber sanctions” to restrict access to the social networks and instant messaging services in cases of hacking, fraud and online bullying. Sex offenders and those convicted of 'harassment or anti-social behaviour' also can have their internet access restricted or terminated under the new law.
Officials are now looking into whether "cyber tag" technology could be used to monitor offenders and report to authorities if break their bail or sentence conditions by using the internet.

"The Ministry of Justice and the Home Office will consider and scope the development of a new way of enforcing these orders, using ‘cyber-tags’ which are triggered by the offender breaching the conditions that have been put on their internet use, and which will automatically inform the police or probation service," cyber security strategy said.

It added that if the regime is a success restrictions on internet use could be imposed on "a wider group of offenders".

Police forces across the country will also follow the example of the Met’s Police Central e-Crime Unit by recruiting “cyber specials”; internet experts will be encouraged to volunteer as special constables to help investigate online crime.
And exactly who will that 'wider group of offenders' consist of? People who don't don't hold the proper politically correct view of Islam, perhaps? People who have a differing view on Britons being disarmed, or who dislike the government's economic, immigration or foreign policies? People who have a dissenting view on Britain's participation in the EU? The possibilities are endless once this gets started.

And depend of some or all of these definitions of 'a wider group of offenders' to be instituted. Britain is fast approaching the status of a non-free country.

Obama Condoms

Source
We read:
"A New York street vendor has been arrested once again for selling condoms in wrappers bearing the image of President Barack Obama.

Jose Andujar, 43, was arrested on Friday in Times Square for selling his "Obama" condoms. It was his third arrest in a year for unlicensed peddling, police said, reported the New York Post.

The arrest came despite a State Supreme Court justice ruling that Andujar's condoms are protected by the Constitution's guarantee of free speech. The decision said the condom wrappers should be treated like books, which do not require a vending license.

The city vowed to continue to bust Andujar, pending the outcome of an appeal.

Andujar typically titillates tourists with his slick sales pitch, "It's the ultimate stimulus package for hard times."

Only 32% of the public believes that political rhetoric motivated the “quite liberal” Tucson crackpot

Posted by Jim Hoft

Sorry libs.
Only 32% of the public believes that political rhetoric caused the “quite liberal” Tucson crackpot to go on a shooting binge at a Safeway. Even a majority of honest democrats believe the shootings were not caused by heated political rhetoric.
The Hill reported:

Almost 60 percent of the public believes that heated political rhetoric has nothing to do with an Arizona shooting spree that gravely wounded Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D) and killed a federal judge.

Fifty-seven percent of respondents in a new CBS News poll said rhetoric is unrelated to the shooting, while 32 percent said they believe the two are connected…

… Republicans who responded to the poll do not believe the shooting was related to rhetoric at a greater rate than Democrats. Sixty-nine percent of Republicans said rhetoric was not a factor, compared to 19 percent who said it was connected.

A narrow plurality of Democrats believe there is no relationship — 49 percent to 42. Fifty-six percent of independents believe rhetoric is unrelated to the shooting, and 33 percent think it was.

It’s time for a few apologies, isn’t it?

In a related Rasmussen poll… 45% of voters are worried that Obama opponents will turn to violence, down from 53% last year.

Students' Freedom of Speech Speaks Volumes

Generally, a hoard of rebellious schoolchildren is one of the last things anyone wants to encourage. But religious leaders and First Amendment advocates can cheer for some Tennessee students who, despite a ban, kept up prayer at school events.1

Hamilton County banned student-initiated prayer after the Freedom from Religion Foundation sent a letter to the district superintendent in response to a complaint from a Soddy-Daisy High School student's family about prayer over the loud speakers before football games. Nonetheless, students and members of the community rallied together at a public park and then at a football game in October to pray about the ban.

In another case, a Michigan elementary school prohibited a student from handing out invitation flyers to classmates for church activities. A lawsuit was filed by the Alliance Defense Fund on the student's behalf.2 Recently, a federal court ruled that the school violated the student's First Amendment right to free speech and ordered the school district to stop enforcing its ban on students distributing flyers.3

And in a case earlier this year, Pennsylvania school authorities disciplined a student for wearing a T-shirt that read "Abortion Is not Healthcare."4 A lawsuit was filed against the West Shore School District, which later lifted the ban preventing the student from wearing the shirt. The lawsuit was subsequently voluntarily dismissed by the plaintiffs.

As special interest organizations and politicians try to usurp the moral future of America, it is important for Christian families with children in public schools to remember that their students have First Amendment freedoms. They have both the right and obligation to exercise their faith and speech for the sake of the gospel, especially when there are those who would illegally try to silence them.5

It Begins. Cops Arrest Christians For Handing Out Bibles to Muslims in Michigan

And it begins. The Christophobes and the Theophobes who run the USA must be delighted with this.

Via Gateway Pundit.

It’s come to this…

Police in Dearborn, Michigan arrested Christians last week for handing out Christian literature:

From the Video: If you have questions about the legality of preventing Christians from distributing copies of the Gospel on a public street, you may contact the Dearborn Police Department at 313.943.2240.

AllahPundit at HotAir reported this on the arrested Christians:

Via Powerline, so insane is this that I’m paranoid there’s a key detail missing somewhere that might explain the whole thing. Could the Christians have been trespassing on private property, maybe? Sure doesn’t look like it, and in any case, they weren’t arrested for trespassing. They were arrested for “disorderly conduct,” which apparently now extends to the offense of offering religious literature to someone who might not want it.

No wonder the far left and Islamists get along so well.

The Daily Ni**er Shutdown?!!

Yesterday David Drake spoke about a blog which he had found with the name "The Daily Ni**er". I had the chance to see through some of the articles, and it sounded really critical of the Hussein Obango Administration.

This morning I came to David's blog, and tried to enter the "TDN" blog, and this is what I saw:

TheDailyNiggerShutdown

The Big-Brother-in-Chief is flexing his socialist muscles. Where is the ACLU when we need them?!!

The text therein reads:

This website has been shutdown due to violations of DHS Cyber Security policies and the Office of the President of the United States Cyber Watch Program. This site has been determined to be not in keeping with current policies regarding truthfulness about the Administrations Health Care Reform and has been deemed a threat to National Security by inciting revolt against the policies and procedures of the Office of the President. If you are aware of any other sites that you feel violate the aforementioned policies please click here!

Imagine what would have happened if Bush had closed down a blog for expresing views that contradict him.

"Creationism is the GOP’s giant problem"

Darwinist Rage Boy is horrified that americans have the God given freedom to criticize the Holy Theory of Evolution. He says is his blog:

"Creationism is the GOP’s giant problem"

Actually, the conservatives' giant problem are bogus conservatives who wander among us while wanting us to stop being conservatives. This happens not only in the USA but everywhere. People like Darwinsit rage boy is a perfect example of that. Charles doesn't seem ot realize that the diference between "criticizing evolution" and "teaching creationism" is huge. For him, any criticism you direct at the theory of evolution, even when done by qualified scientists like the ones in the Discovery Institute or the Creation Ministries International, is "disonesty".

The theory of evolution cannot be criticized, saith Darwinist Rage Boy, but only believed. In Charles' religion, if one dares to criticize the theory of evolution, one might aswell criticize that the earth is round shapped.

Give it up, Darwinist Rage Boy. Your bullying tactis won't scare people who want to scientifically criticize your religion. If evolution is as half as solid as your coreilgionists say it is, then it will survive the scientific criticism. However, if it is not, then it's time for you to find a new religion.

Free speech means free speech. Academic freedom means academic freedom. If you don't like that, you can always get some hints from your new friends, CAIR.

Charles Warns America: If a Creationist Becomes President, the Sky Will Fall!!

Ok ok. Perhaps the title of this post was not exacly what Charles said, but, hey, reading what he believes inteligent design is, is my post really out of touch with his mindset?

You may say "Oh, but you are wrong! Surelly Charles is not advocating that the GOP rejects candidates because they trust in what the Bible says, are you?".

hmmmmm. YES, I am! According to Charles, no creationist president will ever be elected in the USA. Is this true? Is Charles right on this one? Or is he scaremongering conservatives?

Well, first of all, we must understand that, in Charles worldview, "creationist" is anyone who criticizes the belief that the living world created itself. This includes the vast majority of republicans, and perhaps a large percentage of democrats. Is Charles really saying that people who believe that God created by non-evolutionary means are not capable of leading the USA?

Oh, say it isn't soooo!

In the real world, however, things work in a diferent way. Not only the belief that the world created itself is irrelevant for science, but I am pretty much sure that most charismatic american president in the second half of the 20th century (Ronald Reagan) believed that the living world displays evidence for real design.

So if Charles is right, the GOP should have never acepted Ronnie to become a candidate. Fantastic!
