Another Lefty "RAAAAACIST!" attack job goes horribly wrong.

Barack Obama has joined the angel chorus of good righteous Lefties screaming for blood in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Florida. Charges of racism have figured prominently, I guess they figured they were on pretty safe ground screaming RAAAACIST!!! at a guy named George Zimmerman.

Oops.

George Zimmerman is Hispanic and grew up in a multiracial family, the statement says.
"He would be the last to discriminate for any reason whatsoever ...," the letter says. "The media portrayal of George as a racist could not be further from the truth."

D'oh!

There are also indications that the media story about what happened could use some work too, because right now they've got Zimmerman shooting this kid after chasing him into somebody's back yard. Even with the "Stand Your Ground" law, something like that is a no-brainer manslaughter charge at the very least. But the cops didn't charge him. So it would seem that yet again, all is not the way Rev. Al Sharpton would like you to believe.

OOPS! Update: well now it seems there's a witness who saw the whole thing, and that's why the cops didn't arrest Zimmerman. Seems that maybe little Trayvon wasn't the innocent victim here, that MAYBE, Ghod forbid, the cops have a clue and are acting as required by law. Who'd a thunk it? This tidbit of information hasn't slowed up the media freakshow of race baiters any, now Jesse Jackson is in on it and Barack Hussein baby is doubling down.

Borders? We don't need no stinking borders!

California circling the bowl so fast that today they broke the sound barrier.

The Los Angeles Police Department will soon start ignoring California state law, which requires police to impound the vehicles of unlicensed drivers for 30 days.

The majority of unlicensed motorists in Los Angeles are immigrants who are in the country illegally and have low-income jobs. The LAPD says the state's impound law is unfair because it limits their ability to get to their jobs and imposes a steep fine to get their car back.

I wonder whose re-election campaign this has to do with, eh? Ok truth, I'm not wondering.

Who to blame here?

At this time (1:38pm Wednesday Mar. 21st 2012) the French cops are said to be lined up ready to rush the guy who shot a bunch of people around Paris lately. The list of atrocities is not edifying, so I shall not include them. Suffice to say he's a rabid dog in need of a bullet.

Initially the media was speculating this was another Lars Vilks deal, news now says he's French, and/or Al Qaeda, escaped from Afghan jail and/or let go by the USA, and/or under surveillance by the French for several years, blah blah blah.  Naturally this puts the media in the uncomfortable position of having to chose which of their sacred cows to gore in the assigning of blame.

For me, this is easy. I just blame the media. Kids and teacher shot at school = gun-free zone, blame liberal media. Paratroopers shot while unarmed (by law), blame liberal media. Unsecured know fruitloop running around free, blame liberal media.

Why? Because gun control is THEIR policy. Lenient to the point of insanity sentencing of known criminals is THEIR policy.

That's why.

Chick snaps in class, newsies blame Jesus.

Alternative title: This is your brain on drugs.

Some girl freaks out in college and has to be forcibly removed from class and taken to the hospital.  This is news... why?

"They were talking about natural selection. They were talking about peacocks and how females choose their mates by their most feathers and the woman started asking about how that killed all black people," said one FAU student.

Students say that's when the girl snaps, ranting and threatening to kill Professor Kaijura and several of her classmates.

Yep, kid loses her shit in class and it makes national news, media spinning hard so it seems like some fundie is getting all dangerous about Darwin again. Gotta be a headliner for sure, what with those kids getting killed in France the other day, gets some Christian action out there to make it look like "they all do it"..

Plus, you know, they had video. Ten pukes with iPhones and YouTube accounts made sure. Nice little bit of safe-to-show violence and swearing to titillate the ten o'clock news crowd, fill up two minutes of otherwise dead air on a no-news day.

It looks to me like too many lectures on The White Male Hegemony plus a diet high in recreational chemicals, but t'would appear nobody is going to let the facts get in the way of a perfectly good TV time filler.

I hate TV.

I know you people all think I'm mental for posting this flying drone crap all the time...

... but I'm SO not.

The world's largest and most resilient BitTorrent site plans to redefine "cloud computing" with a plan to move at least some of its servers onto unmanned drones miles above Sweden. 

In a Sunday blog post, The Pirate Bay announced new "Low Orbit Server Stations" that will house the site's servers and files on unmanned, GPS-controlled, aircraft drones.

To me its just obvious. You want to put your stuff someplace where the cops can't just kick in your front door anytime they want? Put it on an autonomous aircraft or an autonomous zeppelin/balloon/blimp whatever. They are CHEAP, they are easy to make in your mom's basement, they can do the job you want them to do be it file server or phone sniffer/cracker/whatever, and the best part is the cops can't get to them. Physically can't get there.

I mean, are we going to have police units running around Europe and North America shooting down glorified model airplanes all the time? Unlikely! 

But even if they do try to shoot them,  shooting them down with what? Stinger missiles? AAA cannon?  Jet fighters? You put a drone up higher than the airline industry goes and have it stay there stationary for a couple of days on solar power, that's going to be a hell of a thing to try and stop. The cost of such an aircraft would be considerably less than the cost of the fuel for the jet that's going to go shoot it too.

It is also the answer to Barack Hussein Obama's fabulous Internet Off-Switch. Sail a few of these things over every city in the country, you've got basic text internet instantly for anybody willing to aim a TV dish at it.

Way to go Pirate Bay!

Your tax dollars at work, America.

Armed guards ensuring safety of Organ Pipe tours

QUITOBAQUITO - It was a tour of public lands with splendid scenery, a glib guide - and lethal firepower on hand just in case.

The tour last week - to Quitobaquito Spring at Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument south of Ajo - was guarded by federal officers armed with assault rifles and other weapons.

Why?

"It's because of the perception that exposure to human and narcotics smugglers is a bad thing for the visiting public," said Matthew Vandzura, chief ranger at the monument on the Mexican border.

No word on whether or not TSA was on hand to grope the tourists before and after the tour, in case one of them might have had a Swiss Army knife.

I've been to Organ Pipe National Monument. It was nice. There were no armed guards or "Danger beware of narco-smugglers" signs. That's because it was about 1997 and the Border Patrol hadn't yet been ordered to NOT arrest smugglers. 

Then there's this gem today:

Federal agents stopped the main target of the ill-fated Operation Fast and Furious in May 2010. After they questioned him, he disappeared back into Mexico, and the program went on to spiral out of control.

Because its the LS Times I'll do the translation for you. He didn't magically "disappear", THEY LET HIM GO.

Why ATF agents did not arrest Celis-Acosta immediately is not clear. He was their prime suspect and the subject of secret wiretaps approved by the Justice Department.

"Due to the fact that the criminal case is still ongoing in the courts, and the inspector general's office is still investigating, we cannot comment about this," ATF chief spokesman Drew Wade said.

They can't comment because nobody at Justice is willing to fall on their sword and admit they gave the order to ATF to let this clown go, even though they had him dead to rights. Because it probably came from pretty high up.

So why is human- smuggling, drug traffic and gun-running out of control on the southern US border? Because Obama and Holder want it that way, that's why. Its government policy. Y'all are paying for this.

Eric Holder, busted Breitbart style.

Andrew Breitbart, even though he is dead,  STILL DOING THE JOB the rest of the media has quite obviously been paid not to do.

Breitbart.com has uncovered video from 1995 of then-U.S. Attorney Eric Holder announcing a public campaign to "really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way."

Because people are stupid, you know. If we don't tell them what to think they'll get it wrong, the dumb bastards.
