Bernie Sanders’ Climate Change plan promises to ‘BRING TO JUSTICE’ warming deniers!!

Bernie Sanders’ Climate Change plan promises to ‘BRING TO JUSTICE’ warming deniers!! » The Right Scoop -:
Thank goodness that Socialist nutbag Bernie Sanders is falling in the polls because if you look at his Global Warming plan very closely, there’s a line in it that seems to claim that he would punish and prosecute “deniers.”
From his plan website:
Bring climate deniers to justice so we can aggressively tackle climate change. It is an embarrassment that Republican politicians, with few exceptions, refuse to even recognize the reality of climate change, let alone are prepared to do anything about it. The reality is that the fossil fuel industry is to blame for much of the climate change skepticism in America. Bernie recently called for the Department of Justice to investigate Exxon Mobil, which may have not only known about the dangers of climate change, but has spent millions of dollars to spread doubt about the causes and impacts of burning fossil fuels.
Notice that first sentence – “Bring climate deniers to justice.” 

Now the rest of that paragraph seems to call for going after big oil companies like Exxon, but it’s unclear if that’s all it means. 

In fact, the next sentence talks about Republican politicians – how will Bernie “bring them to justice”? 

Would that include bloggers and other Americans who don’t go along with his Global Warming hoax? 

How would he bring us to Justice?..."

Palestinian Student Approaches Visiting Israelis to Bash Them But Unwittingly Makes Their Case Perfectly: ‘Ultimate Anti-Israel Fail’ | Video | TheBlaze.com:

 "Waving her finger at them in disapproval, the woman — seen in the video wearing a black scarf tied around her hair — said, “You cannot compare the minority in Israel with Arab[s] in other countries, because Israel is a democratic state. I cannot expect from dictatorships the same treatment.”

“Yes, that’s sort of the point,” Stand With Us — the pro-Israel advocacy group that sponsored the visit — wrote in a Facebook post."

SHARIA Is HERE - Look At This Barbaric Practice Involving CHILDREN
Adult Shi’ite muslims celebrate Ashura through self-mutilation using knives, chains and flails.
Since babies are incapable of inflicting such barbaric pain upon themselves, the adult men take knives to their heads and slash them drawing blood, enough to run down their little innocent faces while they scream out in pain. Ashura is celebrated here in the United States of America every year!

-Ashura in India-

-Ashura in India-

-Ashura in India-

-Ashura in India-

While this practice is common in middle eastern muslim countries, the fact that this is happening here in the United States now should worry everyone!
These people have no plan to assimilate in this country.

They are bringing their ideology along with their barbaric practices and Sharia law to YOUR neighborhood. 

Again, these are not radicalized ISIS members (well, not that we are aware of yet).
With our current president who said he will side with Islam no matter what and is on a fast track to bring in more muslims, this IS going to get WORSE. 

 Do we really want this ideology HERE?

AP: California's Extreme Gun Control Failed - Breitbart:

"On December 6 the Associated Press pointed out that California’s aggressive gun control laws–expanded background checks, heavy regulations on “assault weapons,” and other regulations–all proved impotent to stop the San Bernardino terror attacks.

Breitbart News previously reported that the expanded background checks failed to make a difference, yet Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) and other Democrats responded to the San Bernardino attacks by pushing to expand background checks in every state."

Feedin' the animals!-----11-foot gator eats burglary suspect hiding in Florida pond

11-foot gator eats burglary suspect hiding in Florida pond - WPEC-TV CBS12 News :: News - Top Stories:
"BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. -- Authorities say a burglary suspect was killed by an 11-foot gator while hiding from authorities in a Florida pond.
The Brevard County Sheriff's Office says 22-year-old Matthew Riggins drowned as a result of the gator attack.
Riggins and another suspect were in a neighborhood in Barefoot Bay to burglarize homes, Brevard County Sheriff's officials say. Riggins and the other man were spotted on Royal Palm Boulevard, but eluded authorities. Riggins nor the other man were never located by deputies.
Riggins reportedly called his girlfriend to say he was being chased by authorities.
His girlfriend called police the next day to report him missing when he never returned home, Brevard Sheriff's officials say.
The half eaten body of Riggins was found in a Barefoot Bay lake just north of Ocean Avenue Way on Nov. 23.
He was missing his lower extremities and part of his arm, deputies told the Orlando Sentinel..."

FAIL!-----Where a Wrong Answer Can be Right and the Right Answer Can Be Wrong

Where a Wrong Answer Can be Right and the Right Answer Can Be Wrong | Somewhat Reasonable
"Another Common Core-aligned math problem is going viral.
This time a 3rd grade math problem was marked as incorrect even though the student found the correct answer.
On the other hand, submissions with the wrong answer have been counted right.
The question asked the student to find the result of 5 multiplied by 3, using the “repeated addition strategy.”
The student wrote “5+5+5” and correctly found the answer to be 15.
Apparently, this strategy didn’t fit with the Common Core-established method for teaching multiplication, so the teacher punished the student for getting the right answer in a way not prescribed.
In problem number 2, the student was asked to solve 4 multiplied by 6.
The child created an array with four columns of ones and six rows of ones.
With this array, the student provided the correct answer of 24.
The teacher again punished the student for getting the right answer in a different manner, wanting six columns of ones and four rows of ones.
NBC Chicago reported, “The new math methods are in response to the Common Core States Standards Initiative launched in 2009.
It focuses on more critical thinking and less on memorization.”
That report is inaccurate. 
First, these math methods have been around for more than two decades, under names such as New Math, Fuzzy Math, Everyday Math, and Chicago Math. Second, Common Core was created before 2009, as its own supporters claim. 
Third, the critical thinking talking point is an excuse to prevent accountability for teaching methods and results.
This talking point also defies logic because, as this math problem shows, many Common Core teachers want only one method to be taught for calculating the correct answer, regardless of the critical thinking utilized by the student.
When a student uses his or her own strategy to come to the right answer, isn’t that an example of the kind of “critical thinking” Common Core is supposed to be promoting?..."

You Persians! OUT!!!-----Carter Banned Iranians from Coming to US During Hostage Crisis

Carter Banned Iranians from Coming to US During Hostage Crisis | Frontpage Mag:
"Trump is a monster, a madman and a vile racist. 
He's just like Hitler. 
Or Jimmy Carter.
During the Iranian hostage crisis, Carter issued a number of orders to put pressure on Iran.
Among these, Iranians were banned from entering the United States unless they oppose the Shiite Islamist regime or had a medical emergency.
Here's Jimmy "Hitler" Carter saying it back in 1980.
Fourth, the Secretary of Treasury [State] and the Attorney General will invalidate all visas issued to Iranian citizens for future entry into the United States, effective today. We will not reissue visas, nor will we issue new visas, except for compelling and proven humanitarian reasons or where the national interest of our own country requires. This directive will be interpreted very strictly.
Apparently barring people from a terrorist country is not against "our values" after all.
It may even be "who we are".
Either that or Carter was a racist monster just like Trump.
Meanwhile here's how the Iranian students in the US were treated.
Carter orders 50,000 Iranian students in US to report to immigration office with view to deporting those in violation of their visas.
On 27 December 1979, US appeals court allows deportation of Iranian students found in violation.
In November 1979, the Attorney General had given all Iranian students one month to report to the local immigration office. Around 7,000 were found in violation of their visas.
Around 15,000 Iranians were forced to leave the US.
Meanwhile any Iranians entering the US were forced to undergo secondary screening.
Interestingly enough, Carter did this by invoking the Nationality Act of 1952.
A law originally opposed by Democrats for its attempt to restrict Communist immigration to the United States.
“If this oasis of the world should be overrun, perverted, contaminated, or destroyed, then the last flickering light of humanity will be extinguished,” Senator McCarran said of the law.
He was a Democrat..."

Here Are Some Budget 'Life Hacks' the Government Should Use

Here Are Some Budget 'Life Hacks' the Government Should Use:
"The holiday season is fast upon us—that time of year when Americans across the country gather ’round the warm glow of their computer screens and try to figure out how on earth they are going to balance their budgets.
Political debates can seem a long way away when you’re in a room alone with your credit card bill, but commonsense policy reforms at every level of government could save Americans money.
I looked at dozens of studies and did some math of my own, and I found that just 12 important reforms could save the average American household $4,440 every year.
Some of those savings would come from lower prices on everyday purchases, such as food and gas; some would come on big-ticket items, such as cars and houses.
Two federal reforms could lower the price of gas by 31 cents per gallon. 
Repealing the 1975 crude oil export ban would allow U.S. oil to be shipped to the refineries that are best equipped to turn it into gasoline for American travelers, thus lowering the price.
Congress recently passed a bill that would lift the ban, but President Barack Obama has threatened to veto it.
The second reform that would save Americans money on gas is to end the failed experiment with corn-based ethanol.
The ethanol mandate, officially known as the Renewable Fuel Standard, dilutes gasoline with ethanol, which is less efficient and costs more.
Not only would repeal of the ethanol mandate lower the price of gas by 19 cents a gallon, but it would also save the average household $1.65 a week on groceries by letting farms do what they do best: grow food.
Two other reforms would lower the cost of a new car by $5,750...."

Few Extremists in Islam -- That's a Myth

Few Extremists in Islam -- That's a Myth| National Review Online
It is simply false to declare that jihadists represent the “tiny few extremists” who sully the reputation of an otherwise peace-loving and tolerant Muslim faith.
In reality, the truth is far more troubling — that jihadists represent the natural and inevitable outgrowth of a faith that is given over to hate on a massive scale, with hundreds of millions of believers holding views that Americans would rightly find revolting. 
Not all Muslims are hateful, of course, but so many are that it’s not remotely surprising that the world is wracked by wave after wave of jihadist violence.
To understand the Muslim edifice of hate, imagine it as a pyramid — with broadly-shared bigotry at the bottom, followed by stair steps of escalating radicalism — culminating in jihadist armies that in some instances represent a greater share of their respective populations than does the active-duty military in the United States.
The base of the pyramid, the most broadly held hatred in the Islamic world, is anti-Semitism, with staggering numbers of Muslims expressing anti-Jewish views.
In 2014, the Anti-Defamation League released the results of polling 53,100 people in 102 countries for evidence of anti-Semitic attitudes and beliefs.
The numbers from the majority-Muslim world are difficult to believe for those steeped in politically correct rhetoric about Islam.
A full 74 percent of North African and Middle Eastern residents registered anti-Semitic beliefs, including 92 percent of Iraqis, a whopping 69 percent of relatively secular Turks, and 74 percent of Saudis.
...The latest polling data show that while a majority of Muslims reject ISIS, extrapolating from the populations of polled countries alone shows that roughly 50 million people express sympathy for a terrorist army that burns prisoners alive, throws gay men from buildings, and beheads political opponents. 
In Pakistan a horrifying 72 percent couldn’t bring themselves to express an unfavorable view of ISIS.
...Islam has a problem. It is Muslims’ responsibility to reform their own faith. It is America’s responsibility to defend itself and its citizens. Neither goal is advanced by telling convenient, politically correct lies. After 14 years of war, can we finally tell the truth?

Media Fail: 61% Opposed Obama's Refugee Program - Prior to San Bernardino! - Breitbart

Media Fail: 61% Opposed Obama's Refugee Program - Prior to San Bernardino! - Breitbart:

"ISIS has promised to seed Syrian refugees with terrorists, and in the wake of the Paris terror attacks, a majority of Americans decided it was wise to suspend the Syrian refugee program. The backlash from our arrogant, bubble-dumb DC Media was immediate: For weeks we were attacked as racists. The good news is that a new poll taken by CNN proves once again that the DC Media no longer has the power it once did to sway public opinion.

A full 61% oppose Obama’s refugee program. Only 38% approve.

Not only did the DC Media fail to emotionally blackmail good old common sense Americans into agreeing to a suicidal refugee program, the worst news for the media is that the CNN poll was taken before the recent terror attack in San Bernardino."
