Catching up

This obsurdity comes from the ACLU, which doesn't surprise me.
Read a Book, Get Charged with Racial HarassmentSelwyn DukeIndiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis student Keith John Sampson was charged with "racial harassment" simply because he was "caught" reading an anti-Ku Klux Klan book. I'm not kidding. More

THE LATEST GLOBAL WARMING TAX
When you want to save the planet from a non-existent crisis ... taxes and wealth redistribution seems like the way to go. In Estonia, farmers will now be taxed for the methane emissions produced by their cattle. Cattle produce the largest amounts of methane gas through belching and flatulence ... this accounts for 15-25% of overall gas emissions. One cow has the ability to produce an average of about 350 liters of methane and 1,500 liters of carbon dioxide each and every single day. Apparently this isn't the first country to propose taxes along these lines. New Zealand also proposed a flatulence tax because New Zealand cattle are responsible for 90% of the country's methane emissions.

Al Sharpton owes $1.5 million in overdue taxes and associated penalties ... must be because the IRS is racist. I'm sure he'll find an excuse.

Glad to see there are some smart people out there - we should take note here in the U.S.
The vast majority of tax payers in Great Britain say that they are not willing to pay higher taxes in order to combat climate change.

Meanwhile, back in my home state, the PC battle is reaching a higher level. Guess what persuasion the Governor is?
North Carolina may find itself in a battle over allowing illegal aliens into community colleges. The Attorney General's office says no, but the governor says yes.

This is ripe - why don't they just stay where they came from?
The Organization of the Islamic Conference has started a project called the Islamophobia Observatory "in order to eliminate the worldwide waves of fear of Islam."

Hopefully, others will follow suit. Nothing worse in a restaurant than noisy, bratty kids. Oh, one thing is worse, their parents that tote them in.
Gotta love stories like this ... a Thai restaurant in Oregon will no longer let children under the age of six in the restaurant. I love it. Hopefully this will catch on.

Just another example of nut jobs among us.
A woman is suing the town of Norwalk, Connecticut after her daughter stepped in dog feces, which "ruined" the rest of their day.

I suppose if this guy had been Hispanic, he would not have been hit up with fees for the local government. What a crock. This is exactly why people can no longer afford to do good deeds.
A 78-year-old Florida man has been accused by the government of running an illegal taxi service after he gave a ride to woman who needed to get home from the grocery store. Government at work.

Good for them - I'd do the same if I still carried one.
Here's what some Virginia residents have to say to their state government officials who say that armed patrons would be unwelcome in Northern Virginia restaurants.

Once again, the good samaritans get penalized for doing the right thing. What a society we live in. The far left influence at its best.
Some Walgreens customers saved a woman from potentially fatal diabetic coma by grabbing OJ, some sugar, and a glucometer off the shelves. Now the Walgreens manager wants the good Samaritans to pay for the items used to save the woman.

Idiocy at its best!
A gas station clerk was fired after his store was robbed. He was fired for keeping too much money in the register.
