And just what the heck is hippocrisy, you ask? Why, it’s hypocrisy the size of a hippopotamus, of course. 😛 And it can be damned amusing stuff.
Things like this remind me of Abe Lincoln. What the hell does Lincoln have to do with anything in present-day Canada? That’s easy: Lincoln once quipped that “Whenever I hear anyone arguing for slavery, I feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally.” I feel the same way about censorship; nothing improves my mood like seeing some totalitarian little bastard getting some of his own medicine rammed down his throat. A good example of this is one dorkette by the name of Gilary Massa. You can get a look at her here, on an episode of TVO’s The Agenda with Steve Paikin titled “Today’s Young Muslim Woman.”
What caught my attention (tip o’ the chapeau to Damian for this one) wasn’t her being a Muslim woman, however. To be honest, the first few times I read about her, the way the articles were worded, I thought she was a dude. No, what got my attention was the say she found her own guns pointed at her. Let’s start with the way that York U has stifled the debate on abortion by violating the rights of the pro-life side by banning all their groups:
Gilary Massa, vice-president external of the York Federation of Students, said student clubs will be free to discuss abortion in student space, as long as they do it “within a pro-choice realm,” and that all clubs will be investigated to ensure compliance.
“You have to recognize that a woman has a choice over her own body,” Ms. Massa said. “We think that these pro-life, these anti-choice groups, they’re sexist in nature … The way that they speak about women who decide to have abortions is demoralizing. They call them murderers, all of them do … Is this an issue of free speech? No, this is an issue of women’s rights.“
Hmm… A hijab-wearing Muslim woman who argues in favour of abortion. Didn’t see that one coming. 😯 A hijab-wearing Muslim woman who believes that the coercive power of the system should be used to shut up people she disagrees with? That’s a lot easier to picture.
Like Damian said; the minute somebody says “it’s not about free speech,” you can bet your ass it’s about free speech. And li’l Gilary obviously doesn’t like the idea of people being able to voice their opinions. Unless, of course, they happen to be her opinions; in which case, she becomes a free-speecher in one hell of a hurry!
Earlier this year, the McMaster University administration banned “anti-Zionist” organizations from using the term “Israeli Apartheid” in posters and banners on the campus. They gave their reasons, some I agree with and some I don’t. Do some digging and see for yourself.
But guess what? Massa got her bhurka all in a knot at the thought of being given a taste of her own medicine:
“We think what has happened at McMaster is an attack on freedom of speech and the right for students to be able to organize,†[…] “We find it appalling that a university administration would strip students away of those fundamental rights without any consultation whatsoever. We think it sets a very scary precedent that other universities might follow.†[…] “People should be allowed to have different opinions and try to convince each other and have a dialogue in a respectful manner. As student union representatives, we think that creating a safe space on campus means allowing people to use their freedom of speech, of course without being hateful or discriminatory. But they should also be able to use these words without fear of being clamped down on.â€
Yeah, right. Hypocritical bitch.
Whenever I hear anyone arguing for censorship, I feel a strong impulse to see her gagged with her own hijab.

Here we go again.
In the frantic scramble to prove once again that socialists just won’t quit until they’re at the top of some heap or other — even if the heap in question is just being plain old bag-of-hammers stoopid — Arsehole Of The Universe Ubersocialist David Miller is still hopping on the Banned Wagon and is now screeching for a ban on handguns and all shooting ranges in TO. 🙄
Yup, that’s right; ol’ Davey never gets tired of scraping the bottom of the barrel of failed ideas. Look for him to ban farting in elevators next. Here’s a few tidbits, with arrangement and commentary by yours truly, of course:
Mayor David Miller announced a plan today that would make all handguns illegal in Toronto, a series of measures that will effectively shut down gun ranges and make it all but impossible to manufacture, assemble or store firearms within city limits.
“I want a safe city,†the mayor told reporters. “The truth is, guns are too easily available and if you talk to some kids in some neighbourhoods they tell you they want a gun to protect themselves.’’ [Well, Dave, maybe if the scumbags that they want protection from were locked up, the idea of carrying a gun might never occur to these kids. Ever think of that??]
Among the recommendations is one calling on council to pass a zoning bylaw to restrict the use of firearms anywhere in the city, including firing ranges and gun clubs.
The report also calls for an end to all recreational shooting on city property, “specifically, shooting ranges at the Don Montgomery Community Recreation Centre (former Mid-Scarborough Community Centre) and Union Station.†[Because everyone knows that shooting ranges are where all the gangbangers hang out.]
“After John O’Keefe’s tragic killing I don’t think there’s any defence for sport shooters any more,†he said. “It’s a hobby that creates danger to others … Guns are stolen routinely from so-called legal owners.†[One legally owned handgun. So, naturally, we’ll blame the other 999,999 legally owned handguns that weren’t used in any crimes. Makes perfect sense, if you’re a socialist.]
“Do we as a society value safety or do we value a hobby that creates danger? And nobody can deny that that hobby directly results in people being shot to death on the streets of Toronto.†[Way to go with the “now that you’ve stopped beating your wife” question, Dave.]
Mr. Whitmore said the mayor is posturing to look as though he is addressing gun violence, but is doing nothing to stop the real source of illegal guns in Toronto.
“This is about the mayor’s need to be seen doing something about gun violence,†he said. “But he’s off on a complete tangent … the vast majority of guns being used by criminals in this city are coming from the United States. They certainly aren’t coming from legitimate, law-abiding gun owners.â€
But in the meantime, Mr. Miller said the city must act. “If we want a truly gun-free city we can’t just ask the federal government to ban the ownership of hand guns … We have to do what’s in our power.â€
Councillor Denzil Minnan-Wong, Don Valley East, scoffed at the mayor’s handgun plan. “Big deal,†he said. “The people that are using the guns are not going into stores and purchasing them. It helps marginally but in terms of reducing handguns I’m not sure it will do very much.†[That’s because it won’t do anything.]
In one six-week period in the summer of 2005, burglars reportedly made off with 84 firearms from Toronto area homes, according to a Toronto police survey. It includes 42 pistols stolen from the Coburg area. In October, 2005, a cache of 17 handguns was stolen from a Toronto lawyer’s office. [Is anybody else wondering just how thieves knew where to find those nice, big collections? Did they maybe check one of those ammo sales records that Bob Rae thought were such a great idea?]
Global News also reported that Chris Bentley will suggest all imported guns be marked with the date they arrived in Canada, the name of the person or company who imported them and the place they were made. [Of course, more registry shit. That’s JUST what we need.]
Not everybody’s drinking the Koolaid. But is that really a surprise? I mean, come on, now. Even in a place like Toronto, it’s hard to get everybody to be as stupid as Miller…
Inspector Tony Cooper, of the Ontario Provincial Police, said there has only been one instance of a member of an Ontario shooting club using his handgun in a homicide.
“I hear about a lot of shootings in Toronto, but I haven’t heard of any using target pistols,†said Insp. Cooper, the deputy chief firearms officer with the provincial weapons enforcement centre. “And only one by a member of a shooting club.â€
You can bet your ass that I’m not near done with this one. More when I have more time to work with (I’m off to buy some ammo)…

Layton has one.
No, really, I’m being serious here. For once (just this once), I’m saying something nice about Jack Layton and I’m not being a smartass: the man does, in fact, have a brain.
Granted, he doesn’t use it all that often, but he dusted it off and trotted it out the other day.
By now, just about everybody and their duck knows about Dion’s little Carbon Tax Excellent Adventure©. Most of us were likely thinking (like I was) that Jumpin’ Jack!â„¢ would hop on that brain-dead bandwagon like a viagra addict on a $2 hooker, but he didn’t. Nope, not this time. Ol’ Jack actually came out with something eerily resembling common sense:
Ottawa–A carbon tax would place an unfair burden on low-income Canadians, Jack Layton said yesterday.
“Those advocating a carbon tax suggest that by making the costs for certain things more expensive, people will make different choices,” Layton said.
“But Canada is a cold place and heating your home really isn’t a choice.”
How the hell did that happen??? Granted, he did get right back to the stoopid right quick (putting the screws to industry, blah blah blah; read the article), but he still had himself a good brain moment for a few seconds there.
Congrats, Jack. Go buy yourself a beer.

Ahem. Ah, gee… I really have nothing whatsoever to add to this…

This has got to be, without any doubt, the worst damned case of BDS I’ve ever seen. But then, I’m not an American, so I might not see it as often.
This dude though, and I’ll freely admit that I don’t have a clue in hell as to who he actually is — I don’t watch MSNBC and I don’t think I’m likely to if this is the quality of programming they offer — totally kooks out over the American President in a way that I thought was usually reserved for lifelong Gritlets wailing about the Impending Doom Under The Evil Government Of Scary Stephen Harper®. Ah, hell, just take a look at this idiot and see for yourself.
I recommend antipsychotics. Strong ones. In bigass doses…

Just when the hell are the useful idiots in this country going to get it through their thick heads that the warm, fuzzy bunny, hug-a-thug® approach enshrined in the YCJA not only isn’t working, it’s making matters one hell of a lot worse?
As if we didn’t already have plenty of examples of how the YCJA is a menace to public safety that flies in the face of anything and everything even remotely resembling common sense, now we have some more lovely evidence from my own city of London. I checked out the Freeps today and what do you think I found? The inevitable result of a so-called “justice” system that never holds little criminal bastards to account for their actions. In other words, complete and utter bullshit…
A 17-year-old youth is charged in the beating of a woman and her son outside their Marconi Boulevard home two weeks ago.
The male youth is charged in connection to the beating of the 14-year-old son, who went to the aid of his 37-year-old mother — who was attacked by a group of six girls aged 12 to 20 years old.
Witnesses said the 14-year-old boy was attacked by a group of boys and was knocked unconscious when they stomped on his head.
The attack was fueled by a long-simmering dispute between the woman and the girls, three of whom are sisters.
Police and witnesses said the girls punched and kicked the woman.
A 12-year-old allegedly pounded the woman in the head with a shoe, taunting her by saying she was only 12 and no one could do anything to her.
There you have it. These little animals know damned well that they won’t get anything more than a slap on the wrist (if even that) and that knowledge gives them a sense of being untouchable. And when you’re absolutely convinced that you can get away with anything, why bother following the rules? The answer is, you don’t. Of course, there are still plenty of social-worker-nanny types that will tell you that locking these little hellions up isn’t the answer, that they’ll be ever so much more likely to find their way back to being good citizens if they’re just allowed back out on the streets again. Let’s see how well that’s worked out so far, shall we?
Three of the girls are also charged in a Feb. 2 swarming on Highbury Avenue near Huron Street where as many as 25 youths, mainly teenage girls, attacked a 15-year-old boy whose 19-year-old sister was also beaten when she tried to help.
Gee, that’s just working like a charm, isn’t it? But that’s not all; oh, hell no. That would be just too neat and tidy, wouldn’t it? The little punks aren’t content with just swarming people, nosiree. They want to play with guns, too…
A London father’s family is living in fear and is anxious to move after he clashed with a gang of youths — one armed with a handgun — while fishing with his daughter.
“I’m not running from them. I’m not afraid of them, but I want out of this area,” said the man, 30, who lives in a low-income housing complex off Kipps Lane. “My wife and daughter are terrified.”
London police have arrested one 15-year-old suspect and a second suspect is also believed to be in custody.
It’s the third major incident in three months in London involving gangs of youths .
On April 13, a 37-year-old woman was attacked on Marconi Boulevard and on Feb. 2 there was a swarming on Highbury Avenue where about two dozen youths, mainly teenage girls, attacked and stabbed a 15-year-old boy whose sister, 19, also was beaten when she tried to help.
Is anybody else seeing a trend here? And, to be fair, it’s not just the kids. Gangs and other scumsacks of the more grownup variety have figured out that the YCJA is the perfect loophole for them to exploit for their own means. After all, why take risks yourself when you can get some young sucker who thinks they’re untouchable to do all the dirty work for you?
The man said he believes the youths were either members, or younger fans of the Kipps Lane Crew or East of Adelaide gangs.
The Cripps and Blood were also mentioned.
The youths were wearing red and yellow bandannas, police said.
“Even if they’re not in a gang, they pretend to be,” said the man. “The younger ones were just tagging along, asking what was going on.”
Police say they’re looking for two other suspects and that six or seven children, 12 years old or younger, were also involved.
In case you’re wondering, the YCJA has an interesting attitude about kids under the age of twelve. Specifically, if an eleven-year old blows your head off, the little brat can’t be charged with anything. Period. Older ones barely get a slap on the wrist. Criminals know this. And before you start thinking that it’s just the decent folks that are put in danger by all this crap, consider this:
The pair struggled when the man tried to grab the gun and when the youth pulled away, he levelled the gun and yelled, ‘You want me to blow your brains out in front of your kids?’ “
Now here’s the problem: once shit like that starts to hit the fan, it’s only a matter of time before it gets ugly in a very permanent way for someone. And not necessarily the one who’s getting the gun pointed at them. Mark my words: sooner or later, one of these little shits is going to pull a stunt like that when the wrong person is watching!
Someone like me.
All my guns are legally secured (naturally) but I can still be locked and loaded in under 15 seconds if I need to be. No, I’m not making that up; my best time so far is 11.9 seconds. If I looked out my window and saw some punk pointing a gun at someone and hollering “blow your brains out in front of your kids,” I wouldn’t think twice. I’d put one in his head and drop him like a crazy ex-girlfriend. And I wouldn’t lose a minute’s sleep over it (if you somehow think that I’m a rare bird with that attitude, your head’s even farther up your backside than I imagined it could be). And just what do think all the Leftbot moonbats will have to say then?
Cue the howls of outrage…
