Considering the jihadist attack in Garland Texas, it will not take long for the professional left to begin espousing the familiar tome: “free speech, but“….
There is no “but” in any sentence about “free speech”.  It is, it exists, -or-, it is not, it does not exist.  It is that simple.

The fact that a simple event depicting pictures of Muhammad needs to spend $10,000 to hire security -IN AMERICA- should be the real story.  The fact that a simple event depicting pictures would be considered “controversial” -IN AMERICA- should be the sub line of the real story.  Alas, these simple considerations will be lost amid the “but” crowd.
“But”, free speech does not protect offensive speech – is another familiar, perhaps the most frequent, refrain from the “but” crowd.  Insufferably wrong.   The only speech that needs first amendment protection is “offensive speech”, if your speech wasn’t controversial or offensive it would not need protection.

Evolving sketchy details. During a free speech event, “Draw Muhammad Day” in Dallas, at least two people have been shot.  Additional reporting that two suspects were attempting to bomb the event.

We share this story to bring forth a point. There is a real danger when the professional Black Grievance Industry makes a decision to construct a false story of racial animosity, and the media decide to sell it. (Trayvon Martin / Mike Brown as examples) Unstable people read these stories, believe them, then take action based upon the enemy identified within them. This is dangerous.

GEORGIA – An East Point woman accused of making serious threats against police officers on her Facebook page is in jail.

(Via The Hill) An inspector general investigating the IRS’s improper scrutiny of Tea Party groups has found thousands of emails from Lois Lerner, the agency official at the center of that controversy, according to committees involved in the probe.
Treasury’s inspector general for tax administration (TIGTA) said it found roughly 6,400 emails either to or from Lerner from between 2004 and 2013 that it didn’t think the IRS had turned over to lawmakers, the congressional committees said. The committees have yet to examine the emails, aides on Capitol Hill said. (more…)

Bloomberg News is ideologically an extension of CNN propaganda and their latest exploit is a case study in remarkable bias.

I'll be on @cnn with @wolfblitzer at 1:45 to talk about George W Bush's bashing of Obama's foreign policy. Tune in!

George Bush attends a private, closed-door, fundraiser and gives a speech. Part of that speech is Bush giving his opinion on the state of current world events from his perspective as a former President. The headline chosen by Josh Rogin, to set the tone, reads: “George W. Bush Bashes Obama on Middle East“.
Immediately shades of motives and secret recordings, similar to Mitt Romney’s 47% hidden camera expose’, jump out. Rogin’s article claims a single “attendee” as his source for the entire article, and thus begins his narrative:

One attendee at the Republican Jewish Coalition session, held at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas with owner Sheldon Adelson in attendance, transcribed large portions of Bush’s remarks. (link)

“transcribed large portions of Bush’s remarks”? Transcribed how? Was the “attendee” live-typing into his laptop while in the audience, of course not. Recorded and “large portions” transcribed, most likely. (more…)

A counter-event being held today at VSU is anticipated to draw 4,000+ patriots in support of the Stars and Stripes. Todays event follows the publicity of a militant black supremacy group who were walking on, and burning, the USA flag for several days on campus last week.

The leader of the student group who was originally protesting, Eric Sheppard Jr., remains wanted by police for violent threats and firearms violations.  Weapons were found in his backpack on the school campus.  Sheppard fled the campus before police could arrest him. It is rumored Eric Sheppard is in hiding amid several organizations sympathetic to his ‘Islamic radicalization’ cause.
The sunlight upon the campus recruitment for Islamic Radicalization has brought an uncomfortable discussion into the backstory surrounding the events. According to local speculation the Nation of Islam and New Black Panther Party sympathizers are assisting Sheppard in avoiding law enforcement.
Had it not been for an Air Force veteran, Michelle Manhart, bringing national attention to the group – the activity taking place on the VSU campus would never have been scrutinized. (more…)

Adding to my post about Bill Penzey, Jr., I read this article from National Review titled:
Wisconsin’s Shame: ‘I Thought It Was a Home Invasion’
I thought I had read all there was to read about Democrat political tactics against Conservatives in Wisconsin.  I was wrong.  What they have done under the umbrella of “law” is closer to what happens in totalitarian countries.

UPDATE:  Since we exposed the individual(s) and group, VSU has now issued an alert.  Apparently the group was armed during the event, and the primary agitator is to be considered “armed and dangerous”:

UPDATE #2:  Media now beginning to report on Eric Sheppard Jr and here’s a local news report showing him in a confrontation with police while lying about his threats and being armed.

We don’t call it Marylandistan for nothing.

[…]  The mega-mosque is called the Turkish American Culture and Civilization Center and, according to the Muslim Link,  it “will likely become the largest and most striking examples of Islamic architecture in the western hemisphere” when it is finished.  The Muslim Link explicitly says it is “a project of the government of Turkey.”

(Via Right Scoop) A couple of years ago it was reported that Turkey was helping fund the building of a $100 million dollar mega mosque in Lanham, Maryland. In fact Erdogan visited the mosque when he was here in May of 2013, promising to come back for the opening.
Well that time has apparently arrived and now Erdogan and Obama will be together at the mosque for the big opening ceremony: (more…)
