Consider this a MUST READ if you are concerned about abusive government and the absolute elimination of free speech and personal liberty.

(Reason) For the past two weeks, Reason, a magazine dedicated to “Free Minds and Free Markets,” has been barred by an order from the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York from speaking publicly about a grand jury subpoena that court sent to Reason.com.

The subpoena demanded the records of six people who left hyperbolic comments at the website about the federal judge who oversaw the controversial conviction of Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht. Shortly after the subpoena was issued, the government issued a gag order prohibiting Reason not only from discussing the matter but even acknowledging the existence of the subpoena or the gag order itself. As a wide variety of media outlets have noted, such actions on the part of the government are not only fundamentally misguided and misdirected, they have a tangible chilling effect on free expression by commenters and publications alike.

Yesterday, after preparing an extensive legal brief, Reason asked the US Attorney’s Office to join with it in asking that the gag order – now moot and clearly an unconstitutional prior restraint – be lifted. This morning, the US Attorney’s Office asked the Court to vacate the order, which it did. We are free to tell the story for the first time.  (read more)

There may have been a time when a discussion about racial issues was possible, but that window of opportunity quickly passed when the professional left decided to double down on division with a professional community organizer.

The professionally black have a vested ideological and financial interest in the retention of grievance.  No amount of discussion will overcome or quench the institutional need to be perpetually aggrieved.   (Apropos photo-credit Charleston, SC via CBS)

We can agree the shooting in Charleston South Carolina was a hate crime; we can even concede that it might be called terrorism – but that will never change the inherent one-sided nature of the conversation.

Call it whatever you want to call it.  Hate Crimes, domestic racial terrorism, it really doesn’t matter.  If the labels apply for a white person to intentionally kill a black person solely due to the color of their skin.   Then what exactly is this: (more…)

Earlier this week the professionally aggrieved began a campaign against the Louisville Kentucky police department after a deranged man attacked a police officer with a flag pole, and was shot and killed.

The professional agitators began using the same antagonistic activist messaging, “F**k the Police”, as previously used in Ferguson, Saint Louis, Baltimore, Madison, New York, Charlottesville and McKinney, Texas.

The Louisville Kentucky police have had enough.  They pen an open letter to the public:

(more…)

A man walks into a church and shoots nine people dead; that’s terrorism regardless of race.  If the shooting was based on race, then it’s a racist hate crime and terrorism, period.

The number one objective of everyone in law enforcement should be to catch the mass murder suspect and bring him to trial.  As currently described that suspect is: “A 21-year-old, white male, with sandy blonde hair, clean shaven, wearing Timberland boots, jeans and a grey hoodie“.  Every resource should be deployed to catch that criminal.

“Every resource” includes the principle that this horrific crime should be treated with the same intensity as the Boston Marathon bombing.   Every resource in the arsenal of local, state and federal law enforcement should be immediately dispatched to catch this person, period.

Unfortunately, this horrible event will focus attention in many divergent directions based solely on the current environment permeating the national dialogue; and as a consequence of manipulative activists who relish anxiety to advance their various causes.

For those who have intensely followed the evolution of that manipulation for the past several years, the brutal event in Charleston carries a set of additional aspects which ring immediate alarm bells.   Taken individually none of the aspects seem too controversial; however, when you put them together something else begins to assemble.

The Curious Case of Rachel Dolezal’s “Death Threats” Exposed !

By now an entire nation is aware of the Spokane Washington NAACP President Ms. Rachel Dolezal; and more specifically the controversy of her self-identification as black despite her ethnicity clearly being white.

Last night Dolezal even when so far as to begin proposing that her white Anglo-parents couldn’t prove she was actually their daughter. She seems so strongly committed to her position as a black woman she is even willing to go so far as to call her parents liars:

[…]  “I haven’t had a DNA test. There’s been no biological proof that Larry and Ruthanne are my biological parents,” Dolezal said in an appearance on “NBC Nightly News.”

“There’s a birth certificate that has your name on it and their names on it,” interviewer Savannah Guthrie responded.

“I’m not necessarily saying that I can prove they’re not,” Dolezal said. “But I don’t know that I can actually prove they are. I mean, the birth certificate is issued a month and a half after I’m born. And certainly there were no medical witnesses to my birth.”  (link)

However, lost amid all of the black and white cultural discussion of her ethnicity is the more serious issue of Dolezal previously claiming numerous death threats against her while head of the Spokane NAACP chapter.

At the end of February this year, Dolezal claimed to have received packages containing documents outlining death threats against her. It was reported locally in the Spokane media, as KREM2 shared the story early in March. (more…)

Melissa Harris Perry interviewed Rachel Dolezal tonight. However, MHP took the “sympathetic sisters in the cause approach” toward the discussion – and the professionally black are having coast to coast splodey heads.

The interview:

The Splodey’s:

5 minutes in and I'm already extremely dissapointed in Melissa Harris-Perry

Before getting to the latest updates, which include the family claims of being abused by the police, here is the original media report to include the 911 calls and CCTV video of the events.

Of course the professionally aggrieved see this incident as excessive police brutality. (more…)

It is beyond rare for a situation to develop where the professionally black are in such a state of angst within the world of the professionally liberal.

Someone, ANYONE, please, please, please ask Hillary Clinton:

“Do you think Rachel Dolezal is black”?

Alicia Walters, Black Lives Matter activist, and Dr. Wendy Walsh appeared last night on the Don Lemon show to discuss Rachel Dolezal.  (Well worth the time to watch)

The compare and contrast method was using Caitlyn Jenner as an example of transgender, and how Dolezal’s self-identification as a black woman could be considered similarly transracial.

Ms. Walters, the black lives matter activist, was visibly filled with angst at the concept of a woman identifying as black, despite the exceptionally delivered counter-points provided by Dr. Walsh.   The interview is a case-study in how the professionally black, construct their grievances and must dismiss any comparatives lest they be diminished.

The indignation is now palpable.

CNN’s Fredricka Whitfield initially stated the Dallas gunman who tried to kill the police was “Courageous” and “Brave”.

Against a massive and righteous public backlash for such an outrageous assertion, Ms. Whitfield gave a non-apology the following day.  However, it was an explanation filled with visible indignation and contempt for the views of the audience.

A considerable apology fail not just because of the words she selected, ie “misspoke“, but more for the tone of her delivery.  An indignant message fraught with annoyance at having to explain herself.

In her first attempt at “apologizing” she tried to position herself as the victim to a misunderstanding of others.  Again, it failed.  So today she tried again: (more…)
