When You Read Last Paragraphs of NY Times Editorial, You’ll Understand Why Gun Owners Are Infuriated | TheBlaze.com
When You Read Last Paragraphs of NY Times Editorial, You’ll Understand Why Gun Owners Are Infuriated | TheBlaze.com:
"In the last three paragraphs, the Times editorial board wrote that the wording of the Second Amendment is “not necessary to debate” and suggested Americans willfully give up their guns to the government “for the good of their fellow citizens.
It is not necessary to debate the peculiar wording of the Second Amendment. No right is unlimited and immune from reasonable regulation.
Certain kinds of weapons, like the slightly modified combat rifles used in California, and certain kinds of ammunition, must be outlawed for civilian ownership. It is possible to define those guns in a clear and effective way and, yes, it would require Americans who own those kinds of weapons to give them up for the good of their fellow citizens."
Apparently, history must repeat.
Are we truly this stupid?

Police Spokesman Stunned as News Cameras ‘Rush’ Inside San Bernardino Killers’ Home and Broadcast Live | Video | TheBlaze.com:
"Media members bombarded into the San Bernardino apartment of Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik Friday afternoon, after the property’s landlord pried off the board covering the door.
With cameras armed, MSNBC caught the first images of the Farook and Malik’s apartment. A driver’s license, various pictures, and multiple Korans were shown live on television."
This is completely unacceptable!
The apartment is now contaminated.
Every single one of them should be arrested.
The left will stop an nothing to promote their agenda.
Obama will claim it was street violence and will call for more gun laws. There isn't a gun law out there that would have prevented this or any other terrorist act.
WAKE UP AMERICA!

University offers counseling, support meeting to students distressed by 'White Student Union'
University offers counseling, support meeting to students distressed by 'White Student Union' - The College Fix:
UCSB also announces formation of ‘bias response team’
UC Santa Barbara has scheduled a meeting for Saturday afternoon meant to allow students distressed by the newly created “UCSB White Student Union” Facebook page “to talk, get support, or express their feelings.”
Upset students who cannot make the Dec. 5 event, called a “support/discussion gathering,” are encouraged to access the school’s counseling and psychological services, or connect with campus groups such as the Student Commission on Racial Equality and its multicultural center.
That from an email sent to the campus community Friday by Margaret Klawunn, vice chancellor for student affairs, responding to those who’ve lodged complaints and concerns about the “UCSB White Student Union” Facebook page.
“Although we respect and uphold First Amendment rights and freedom of expression, we are very concerned by any actions that might be perceived to create a hostile climate at our university,” Klawunn’s email stated. “It is possible to express different points of view and debate issues without being divisive and causing distress and upset in our community.”

President Obama Assures Us that We've 'Never Been More Protected' From ISIS | PJ Media
President Obama Assures Us that We've 'Never Been More Protected' From ISIS | PJ Media:
"Whew!
What a relief.
For a minute there I thought we might have been wide open to another terrorist attack.
But President Obama set me straight.
In an interview with CBS recorded on Wednesday shortly after the San Bernardino attack, Obama assured the American people that "our homeland has never been more protected" from a terrorist attack.
The Hill:
"What I try to do is to make sure that people understand the threat is real, we have to be vigilant, but we also can't panic and we can't respond out of fear," Obama said in the CBS News interview.
Liberals have been pulling this crap for years.
If you disagree with their tactics or overall strategy, you're "panicking" or you want us to "respond out of fear."
It's a rancid political ploy that suggests liberals are courageous while those who oppose them are cowardly wretches hiding under a table.
"ISIL is not going to pose an existential threat to us," he continued, using an alternate acronym for ISIS, adding, "they are a dangerous organization like al Qaeda was, but we have hardened our defenses. Our homeland has never been more protected by more effective intelligence and law enforcement professionals at every level than they are now."
...This president has the worst sense of timing of any chief executive in history.
How many times has he said something, only to discover later that the exact opposite was true?
There was the "red line" in Syria that wasn't a red line, the containment of ISIS just prior to the Paris attacks, all those good things in the Iran deal that aren't there, and now, we're told we've never been better protected.
Given Obama's track record, I'd be afraid -- very afraid."

Michigan Political Points: Granholm asks Trump to quit campaign for 'good of the country' | MLive.com
LANSING, MI — Donald Trump should drop out of the presidential race "for the good of the country," according to former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, saying it would be his best chance for the Republican frontrunner to honor his campaign promise to "Make America Great Again."...
OPEN LETTER: "Your lies and vitriolic rhetoric are causing irreparable damage to the nation," Granholm told Trump this week in an open letter published by CNN.
Granholm, an ally of Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton, criticized Trump for claims on variety of topics, from his golf game to the way American Muslims responded to 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"The last thing democracy needs is a candidate who intentionally stokes jingoism and makes racial animus mainstream," she wrote.

Cornell University Warns Mistletoe Isn't 'Inclusive' Enough
Cornell University Warns Mistletoe Isn't 'Inclusive' Enough | The Daily Caller:
"A guide to “inclusive” Christmas decorations created by Cornell University warns that any decorations that remotely evoke religion, which includes stars and mistletoe, are incompatible with the school’s commitment to diversity.
The guidelines are buried inside a Cornell publication concerning fire safety guidelines for holiday decorations, and were first noticed by the website Campus Reform.
The first half of the document concerns certain banned fire hazards, such as candles and metallic Christmas trees.
The second half of the document, though, veers off into a discussion of how to make the Christmas season more “inclusive.”
“University members are reminded to be respectful of the religious diversity of our students and colleagues and are encouraged to use an inclusive approach in celebrating the holiday season,” the document says.
Students are encouraged to be more “diverse” by either focusing on winter instead of Christmas or by including decorations for multiple holidays alongside secular decorations."

Know this phrase-----"AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT"
Instapundit » Blog Archive » DEPT OF ED SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM WITH AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT POLICIES:
"DEPT OF ED SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM WITH AFFIRMATIVE CONSENT POLICIES:
Last week FIRE wrote to the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and requested that OCR ask colleges and universities not to use “affirmative consent” standards that violate the due process rights of students accused of sexual assault.
Affirmative consent policies are generally overbroad, vague, and unfairly shift the burden of proof to the accused.
And how would an innocent student demonstrate he or she received affirmative consent?
As Assemblywoman Bonnie Lowenthal, co-author of California’s campus affirmative consent law, said: “Your guess is as good as mine.”

They specially requested the “immigration history of [Farook and Malik’s] parents and any immigration documents related to their marriage and her subsequent travel to the U.S."

"Feminists and gay rights activist love to criticize America for not being as pro-gay or pro-woman as they would like, but they continually ignore the abhorrent crimes committed under Shariah law — and favor Muslims who take offense when it’s not respected.
Women are treated like property, and homosexuals are routinely executed simply for being homosexual.
Maybe liberals should remember that the next time they start complaining about America."

America at Obama’s End
America at Obama’s End - WSJ:
We are near the end of the seventh year of Barack Obama’s presidency, and by any measure the United States is a fractured nation.
Its people are more divided politically than any time in recent memory.
Personally, many are anxious, angry or just down.
Whatever Mr. Obama promised in that famous first Inaugural Address, any sense of a nation united and raised up is gone.
This isn’t normal second-term blues.
It’s a sense of bust.
...Hope and change was the promise.
What happened?
...Iran’s ayatollahs got the Obama message, though, and that deal is the legacy.
The other half of the non-domestic legacy is supposed to be climate change.
Anyone watching the angular figure of the American president...had to be struck by a sense of what the French would call tristesse, a melancholy, even pathetic sadness.
...Liberals think the right is gloating at Mr. Obama’s end-of-term difficulties.
No one is gloating.
The nation is either furious (the right) or depressed (the left) at eight wasted, wheel-spinning years whose main achievement is ObamaCare—a morass.
Mr. Obama will go off to do something else, but he leaves behind a country littered with public and private institutions in disrepute.
...Instead, Mr. Obama spent much of his presidency vilifying the private sector—banks, insurers, energy producers and utilities.
...Mr. Obama has repeatedly mocked institutions he didn’t control and abused the powers of those he did.
Almost always, the ridicule and condescension came in front of cheering audiences..."

Banning Charlie Sheen- and pirate-themed parties
...Taken from the group’s Facebook page:
We, students of Europe@n descent at UCSB, refuse to accept the negative social climate created towards our peers of Europe@n descent and other marginalized groups.
...We as a compassionate student body have gathered to address the legacy of oppression against persons of Europe@n descent (PED) on campus.
If these goals are not initiated within the next quarter, and completed by the second week of Winter Quarter, we will organize and respond by respectfully complaining....root out and punish any and all forms of speech that are deemed offensive to students of Europe@n descent, including but not limited to:
“Cracker,” “Stupid white people”; “OMG, you are so white”; “Where are you from?”; “No, I mean like what part of Europe?”; “Wow, I bet you get sunburned really easily!”; “you wouldn’t understand because you’re white”; “don’t eat this; it’s too spicy for you”; “honky” (and any variants thereof); “Surrendering like a Frenchman!”; and so forth.
WE DEMAND that UCSB and campus police immediately prohibit on pain of expulsion and imprisonment any future parties and other festivities at UCSB or in Isla Vista that have the following (non-exhaustive list of) themes that may further marginalize and trigger white identities and white-identified students:
Charlie Sheen Theme;
a France Theme;

Paris Whopper of the Day: The Sahara Is Expanding | Cato @ Liberty
As the hype volume goes into Everest territory at the big climate summit in Paris, we’ll be a bit more succinct and just point out the Whopper of the Day.
Here’s France’s President conferring with African leaders, who told him of the expansion of the Sahara Desert.

Here’s France’s President conferring with African leaders, who told him of the expansion of the Sahara Desert.
To wit, from today’s Associated Press story:
