Scumbags At Liberal Fish Wrap Want Clemency For American Taliban
July 30, 2007 by Joe
A piece in the opinion section of yesterday’s LA Times calls for the clemency of John Walker Lindh, otherwise known as the American Taliban. According to the piece, Lindh broke the law, but was not a “terrorist” and thus deserves to be granted clemency.
I’m sorry but while he may have not have exactly committed what some would call “terrorist acts,” John Walker Lindh was in fact a terrorist. In the summer of 2001, three months before the 9/11 attacks, he met with Osama bin Laden several times while at an Al-Qaeda terrorist training camp in Afghanistan. While at this training camp, where he was trained to use explosives and various other weapons, he learned that Osama bin Laden had sent people to the United States to carry out suicide missions.
As much as the traitorous pieces of shit at the LA Times would like to deny it, John Walker Lindh who while fighting alongside the Taliban in Afghanistan against U.S. troops went by the name Sulayman al-Faris, not only is not deserving of clemency — he got off way too easy with a measly 20 year sentence.
As a matter of fact the sentence that he was facing before his trial ended, which was up to three life terms and 90 additional years in prison, would have still been too easy for him. He was, still is and always will be a traitorous piece of shit. To refer to John Walker Lindh, the American Taliban, as anything less then a traitor — is borderline treasonous itself.
San Fransicko’s Needles For Users, Not Working Out As Planned
July 30, 2007 by Joe
It seems that the Politburo of the People’s Republic of San Fransicko’s plan to hand out syringes to drug dealers hasn’t exactly been working out as planned. Apparently on any given day between 100 and 200 used needles, which were handed out to the drug addicts who need them using tax money, can be found scattered around Golden Gate Park.
Although Health Department officials say 2 million needles were returned, the fact is they don’t count them and can only estimate how many are coming back.
And from the looks of things, a lot of them aren’t.
Mary Howe, director of the Homeless Youth Alliance, which operates a needle exchange program near the park with the help of city money, said her group gets back only about 70 percent of the needles it distributes.
“People lose them or the police take them,” Howe said.
And it’s not just the city handing out needles.
Under legislation passed in 2005 by the same Board of Supervisors whose members now decry the needle problem, anyone over 18 can walk into a Walgreens or Rite Aid and buy as many as 10 needles — no questions asked.
When The Chronicle’s C.W. Nevius visited some of the park’s homeless encampments the other day, he found plenty of new and used needles. It’s a problem that’s been building for a while: Recreation and Park Department spokeswoman Rose Dennis estimated that “on any day we pull between 100 and 200 needles out of the park . . . because that’s where people use them.”
The logic behind making needles easy to obtain is that the more people share syringes, the more likely they are to contract HIV and other blood-borne diseases.
The problem is getting back the needles from users once they take off to cloud nine.
Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, who has picked up needles in the park and who co-authored the bill allowing them to be sold over the counter, said it’s up to the city to keep the parks syringe-free — either through more cleanups or tighter controls to make sure needles are returned.
“We need to come up with a better system,” Mirkarimi said.
I got a better idea, instead of enabling the scum of the earth, how about you know — putting them behind bars?
Looks Like Anything Can Be A “Hate Crime” These Days
July 29, 2007 by Joe
Let’s see now you can 1) place a crucifix in a bottle of piss and call it “art,” 2) make a video game where the object is to kill “homicidal christs”, 3) you can craft the Virgin Mary out of dung and call it “art,” 4) you can desecrate the Bible and 5) burn the American Flag yet — THIS is considered a Hate Crime?!?!?
NEW YORK (AP) _ A 23-year-old man was arrested Friday on hate-crime charges after he threw a Quran in a toilet at Pace University on two separate occasions, police said.
Stanislav Shmulevich of Brooklyn was arrested on charges of criminal mischief and aggravated harassment, both hate crimes, police said. It was unclear if he was a student at the school. A message left at the Shmulevich home was not immediately returned.
The Islamic holy book was found in a toilet at Pace’s lower Manhattan campus by a teacher on Oct. 13. A student discovered another book in a toilet on Nov. 21, police said.
Muslim activists had called on Pace University to crack down on hate crimes after the incidents. As a result, the university said it would offer sensitivity training to its students.
The school was accused by Muslim students of not taking the incident seriously enough at first. Pace classified the first desecration of the holy book as an act of vandalism, but university officials later reversed themselves and referred the incident to the New York Police Department’s hate crimes unit.
Sharia Law continues to creep its way into America, and once again, nothing is done to stop it.
I guess I must be committing a hate crime by posting this picture:
New Study Shows Smoking Weed May Make You Crazy
July 27, 2007 by Joe
Pot may hike risk of psychosis, research finds.
LONDON - Using marijuana seems to increase the chance of becoming psychotic, researchers report in an analysis of past research that reignites the issue of whether pot is dangerous.
The new review suggests that even infrequent use could raise the small but real risk of this serious mental illness by 40 percent.
Doctors have long suspected a connection and say the latest findings underline the need to highlight marijuana’s long-term risks. The research, paid for by the British Health Department, is being published Friday in the medical journal The Lancet.
“The available evidence now suggests that cannabis is not as harmless as many people think,” said Dr. Stanley Zammit, one of the study’s authors and a lecturer in the department of psychological medicine at Cardiff University.
All I have to say is duh. How else do you explain all the moonbat liberals who were all pothead hippies in the 60’s, as well Ron Paul supporters?
Sharia Creeps Its Way In To American Universities
July 27, 2007 by Joe
You know its amazing how the hypocritical pieces of shit over at the ACLU keep fighting nativity displays on public property; prayer in school (when it comes to Judeo-Christian religions); In God We Trust and pretty much anything that they feel violates their interpretation of the 1st amendment and the so-called “separation of church and state,” but only make little peeping noises when it comes to this.
The University of Michigan at Dearborn is planning to build foot baths for Muslim students who wash their feet before prayer. An elementary school in San Diego created an extra recess period for Muslim pupils to pray.
At George Mason University in Fairfax, Va., Muslim students using a “meditation space” laid out Muslim prayer rugs and separated men and women in accordance with their Islamic beliefs.
Critics see a double standard and an organized attempt to push public conformance with Islamic law.
“What (school officials) are doing … is to give Muslim students religious benefits that they do not give any other religion right now,” says Richard Thompson, president and chief counsel at the Thomas More Law Center, an advocacy group for Christians.
Advocates say the accommodations are legal.
“The whole issue is to provide for a religious foundation for those who are observant while respecting separation of church and state,” says Salam Al-Marayati, executive director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, based in Los Angeles. Many schools accommodate the Christian and Jewish sabbaths and allow Jewish students to not take tests on religious holidays, he says.
Barry Lynn, of Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, says however that the law is murky on these expressions of faith. And the American Civil Liberties Union says overt religious symbols like crucifixes are not legal, but whether Muslim foot baths and prayer rugs fall into that category is not clear.
“That’s a difficult one, and it’s right on the edge,” says Jeremy Gunn, director of the ACLU program on freedom of religion and belief in Washington, D.C.
At the forefront of the movement is the Muslim Students’ Association, which has formed a Muslim Accommodations Task Force to push for foot baths and prayer rooms. At least 17 universities have foot baths built or under construction, including Boston University, George Washington University and Temple University, and at least nine universities have prayer rooms for “Muslim students only,” including Stanford, Emory and the University of Virginia, according to the MSA’s website. The association did not return calls seeking comment.
Sharia just keeps on creeping in…

The Most “Ass”inine Story Of The Week
July 25, 2007 by Joe
This is the story of two individuals, Cory Mashburn and Ryan Cornelison, both from McMinnville, Oregon, who are facing having to be registered as sexual predators for the rest of their lives. Both of these individuals were initially charged with several felony counts of sexual abuse, however District Attorney Bradley Berry has since backed off those charges and instead is charging them with ten misdemeanor counts of harassment and sexual abuse. They face a maximum of one year in jail for each count and having to register as sex offenders for the rest of their lives.
These must be two vile and disturbing, scum-of-the earth type of individuals, you might be asking yourself right now, to be facing this kind of punishment. Well if you did ask yourself that question, you’d be wrong.
Cory Mashburn and Ryan Cornelison are two 13 year olds who were arrested in February after they were caught in the halls of Patton Middle School, in McMinnville, Oregon, slapping girls on the rear end.
The boys spent five days in a juvenile detention facility and were charged with several counts of felony sex abuse for what they and their parents said was merely inappropriate but not criminal behavior.
The local district attorney has since backed off — the felony charges have been dropped and the district attorney said probation would be an appropriate punishment. The Mashburns’ lawyer said prosecutors offered Cory a plea bargain that would not require him to register as a sex offender, which the family plans to reject.
But the boys, if convicted at an Aug. 20 trial, still face the possibility of some jail time or registering for life as sex offenders.
The boys’ families and lawyers said even sentencing them to probation would turn admittedly inappropriate but not uncommon juvenile rowdiness into a crime. If they are convicted of any of the misdemeanor charges against them, they would have to register as sex offenders.
“It’s devastating,” said Mark Lawrence, Cory Mashburn’s lawyer. “To be a registered sex offender is to be designated as the most loathed in our society. These are young boys with bright futures, and the brightness of those futures would be over.”
Cory Mashburn said he and Ryan Cornelison slapped each others’ and other kids’ bottoms every Friday. “Lots of kids at school do that,” he said.
Cory and Ryan were brought to the principal’s office Feb. 22, where they were questioned by school officials and a police officer. They were arrested that day and taken in handcuffs to a juvenile detention facility.
Court papers said the boys touched the buttocks of several girls, some of whom said this made them uncomfortable. The papers also said Cory touched a girl’s breasts. But police reports filed with the court said other students, both boys and girls, slapped each other on the bottom.
“It’s like a handshake we do,” one girl said, according to the police report.
The boys were initially charged with five counts of felony sexual abuse. At a court hearing, two of the girls recanted, saying they never felt threatened or inappropriately touched by the boys. The judge released the boys but barred them from returning to school and required that they be under constant adult supervision.
These two young boys are facing having to register as sex offenders, which would leave them carrying on a life where they would be destined to be labeled as sick and disgusting scum bags wherever they go. Meanwhile, Mahamu Kanneh, 23, who was indicted in December 2004 on nine counts of rape, sex abuse and child abuse — has been allowed to walk away scott free, because the nut case liberal judge felt that he deserved a speedy trial and it was taking to long to find a translator.
Prosecutors at first maintained Kanneh could understand the proceedings without translation into his native Vai, a tribal language that linguists estimate is spoken by about 100,000 people mostly in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
Prosecutors pointed out that Kanneh attended high school and community college in Montgomery and spoke to detectives in English.
A court-appointed psychiatrist recommended that an interpreter be appointed and judges who handled subsequent hearings heeded that advice. But officials could not find a competent interpreter of Vai who would stay.
The first interpreter stormed out of the courtroom in tears because she found the facts of the case disturbing. A second interpreter was rejected for faulty work. A third Vai interpreter was located, but at the last minute, that person had to tend to a family emergency.
In recent weeks court officials had found a suitable interpreter, but Savage ruled that too much time had already passed.
Prosecutor Maura Lynch had argued that dismissing the indictment “after all the efforts the state has made to accommodate the defendant would be fundamentally unfair.”
Kanneh’s attorney, Theresa Chernosky, declined to comment.
Loretta E. Knight, the court clerk responsible for finding interpreters, said her office searched exhaustively for a speaker of Vai. She said court officials contacted the Liberian Embassy and courts in all but three states.
The Washington Post reported that it identified three Vai interpreters Thursday with help from the National Association of Judiciary Interpreters, including one in Gaithersburg.
Lesson to anyone thinking about committing a vile and disgusting crime in America, make sure your not an American citizen and you’ll walk.
Al-Qaeda in Iraq facing loyalty issues
July 23, 2007 by Joe
File this one under the category of yet another story coming out of Iraq that the so-called main stream media won’t tell you about.
It seems that al-qaeda in Iraq is facing a problem within its ranks — there is a growing number of low level terrorists who are fed up with the tactics used by the terror organization and are switching sides to help the coalition forces.
I’m sure Katie Couric will lead off the news this evening with this story, but just to be sure here it is.
Here are some excerpts from the article.
Fed up with being part of a group that cuts off a person’s face with piano wire to teach others a lesson, dozens of low-level members of al-Qaeda in Iraq are daring to become informants for the US military in a hostile Baghdad neighbourhood.
The ground-breaking move in Doura is part of a wider trend that has started in other al-Qaeda hotspots across the country and in which Sunni insurgent groups and tribal sheikhs have stood together with the coalition against the extremist movement.
“They are turning. We are talking to people who we believe have worked for al-Qaeda in Iraq and want to reconcile and have peace,” said Colonel Ricky Gibbs, commander of the 4th Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, which oversees the area.
The sewage-filled streets of Doura, a Sunni Arab enclave in south Baghdad, provide an ugly setting for what US commanders say is al-Qaeda’s last stronghold in the city. The secretive group, however, appears to be losing its grip as a “surge” of US troops in the neighbourhood – part of the latest effort by President Bush to end the chaos in Iraq – has resulted in scores of fighters being killed, captured or forced to flee.
“Al-Qaeda’s days are numbered and right now he is scrambling,” said Lieutenant-Colonel Stephen Michael, who commands a battalion of 700 troops in Doura.
A key factor is that local people and members of al-Qaeda itself have become sickened by the violence and are starting to rebel, Lieutenant-Colonel Michael said. “The people have got to deny them sanctuary and that is exactly what is happening.”
Al-Qaeda informants comprise largely members of the Doura network who found themselves either working with the group after the US-led invasion in March 2003, or signed up to earn extra cash because there were no other jobs going. Disgusted at the attacks and intimidation techniques used on friends, neighbours and even relatives, they are now increasingly looking for a way out, US officers say.
“It is only after al-Qaeda has become truly barbaric and done things like, to teach lessons to people, cut their face off with piano wire in front of their family and then murdered everybody except one child who told the tale afterwards . . . that people realise how much of a mess they are in,” Lieutenant James Danly, 31, who works on military intelligence in Doura, said.
Here’s a special excerpt that’s just for white flag Harry and all the other cut & run democrats in the Senate and House.
The increased presence of US forces in Doura, however, is encouraging insiders to overcome their fear and divulge what they know. Convoys of US soldiers are working the rubble-strewn streets day and night, knocking on doors, speaking to locals and following up leads on possible insurgent hideouts.
“People in al-Qaeda come to us and give us information,” said Lieutenant Scott Flanigan, as he drove past a line of fruit and vegetable stalls near a shabby shopping street in Doura, where people were buying bread and other groceries.
The informants were not seeking an amnesty for crimes that they had committed. “They just do not want to be killed,” Lieutenant Flanigan said.
Tranny has the Folsom Prison Blues
July 22, 2007 by Joe
Alexis Giraldo, 30, a recent parolee of Folsom State Prison is suing the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for emotional distress and violating his constitutional right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment.
Apparently, even though “Alexis” was born with a penis, dude thinks he’s a chick and should have gone into a female prison. Looking at the picture of Mr. Giraldo, which was taken last Friday, while he looks like he could be the singer of some crappy 80’s synth pop band — he most definitely does not look like a chick.
I don’t know what’s sicker, this story or the fact that the Associated Press article about it keeps referring to Mr. Giraldo as “her” or she” rather then “him” or “he.”
I’ve taken the liberty of correcting the mistakes:
SAN FRANCISCO - Alexis Giraldo was born as a man and takes hormones to feminize
herhis appearance, a factshehe says prison officials didn’t care about even asherhismalecellmate repeatedly raped and beatherhim.Giraldo is suing the state prison system and several guards over the state’s policy of assigning inmates like
herhim to men’s or women’s prisons depending on whether theyhave had a sex changethink that they are the opposite sex of what they were born.“Prisons are violent places, and male prisons are especially violent places,” said Greg Walston, a lawyer who took Giraldo’s for free and asked a jury this week for unspecified damages. “You take that boiling cauldron and you put one
womanman who thinks he’s a woman in there — which is exactly what happened here — and it’s like throwing a fresh piece of meat into a lion’s cage.”Giraldo, 30, claims Folsom State Prison guards ignored
herhis complaints and returnedherhim to the same cell untilshehe was assaulted again, then placed in protective custody and moved to another facility.Giraldo is suing the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for emotional distress and violating
herhis constitutional right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment.SheHe has asked Superior Court Judge Ellen Chaitin to order prison officials to come up with a new system for housing transgender inmates.Several counties in California, including San Francisco, have created separate units specifically for transgender prisoners. But like other states and the federal Bureau of Prisons, California assigns inmates to prisons based on their genitalia rather than physical appearance.
Biological men who dress and act like women but have not had sex reassignment surgery can be assigned to a psychiatric prison like the one to which Giraldo eventually transferred or the general population of a regular men’s prison.
The California Attorney General’s office, which is representing the corrections department and Folsom staff members also named as defendants in the lawsuit, said Friday it would not comment on the case.
Briefs filed by the state argue that Giraldo initially was in a consensual sexual relationship with
herhis cellmate in violation of prison policy, did not report specific rape claims and refused offers to be moved to a different cell. Onceshehe made it clearherhis cellmate was sexually assaultingherhim and prison staff found strangulation marks onherhis neck,shehe was removed to protective custody, the state maintains.“Plaintiff alleges that he informed prison staff on a number of occasions about these events. However, the documentation maintained by prison personnel — including some of the defendants in this case — does not bear out these assertions,” the state’s brief states.
Teda Boyll, a retired guard and supervisor in California, testified for Giraldo as an expert witness Friday, saying that in her opinion Folsom officials failed to adequately investigate Giraldo’s concerns and assure
herhis safety.“There are some warning signs,” Boyll said. “When an inmate says, ‘I am getting pressured for sex,’ it means it is already happened or it is imminent he will have to provide nonconsensual sex to another inmate.”
Giraldo was sent to Folsom for shoplifitng and a parole violation in January 2006 and spent three months there before
shehe was transferred to the medical prison.SheHe was paroled this month and plans to testify.
HerHis former cellmate, who is serving a sentence for armed robbery, is also scheduled to testify in the trial.
Talking Trash to Trash
July 19, 2007 by Joe
For the first time that I can remember I can finally say that I agree 100% with something that was said by a local politician here in my hometown of Cleveland.
Mike Polensek, Councilman in Cleveland’s 11th ward, wrote a scathing letter recently, to local crack dealer Arsenio Winston. Winston, 18, was recently arrested for selling crack cocaine outside a convenient store in Councilman Polensek’s ward. This was not the first time that Winston was arrested for such activities, but it was the first time that it happened as a legal adult instead of as a juvenile.
The longtime councilman said he often writes blunt letters to troublemakers in his neighborhood and makes no apologies for this one to Winston.
“I’m fed up and the people in my neighborhood are fed up,” Polensek said. “There’s no political correctness left in me.”
Winston’s mother, Tonya Lewis, said she plans to speak to her attorney, former city councilman George Forbes, about filing a lawsuit against Polensek. She said she also has written a letter to black activist Al Sharpton.
Lewis said she views Polensek’s letter as a death threat against her son because the councilman said “he didn’t care which one came first, that he went to jail or the cemetery.” She also said he referred to Winston as “dumber than mud,” which she considers a racist remark.
In an interview Wednesday, Polensek defended his letter.
“If my letter was offensive, fine, so be it,” he said. “If my letter’s going to make his mother and family think about what he’s done, I’m glad.
“I don’t wish that he dies. I don’t wish that any young person dies. What I’m saying is, this is what will happen to him - it’s either the cemetery or jail - unless he changes his life.”
All I can say to Councilman Polensek is thank you for saying what the law-abiding citizens of greater Cleveland have been wanting to say for years.
Click here to see a video clip of local talk show host Bob Frantz, who devoted his whole show to this topic today, with his ‘Frantz Rantz’ clip talking about the language used in the letter.
