May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

Leftist/Feminist Fabricated Rape Culture, Their War on Men and Women.

One of the latest of the Left’s/Democrat ginned up lies, creating a crises where none exists is the “rape culture’ that exists primarily on college campuses. The meme, put out there by no less than the liar in chief, Barak Obama, is one in five women on campuses are raped during their college years. He claimed that it’s being tolerated.

At the outset, let it be said, rape is horrible, it’s a horrendous crime and must not be tolerated.

“Rape Culture” doesn’t exist anymore than “assault rifle”. Just made up stuff. Goes back to the idea of who controls the language controls the culture. Go back ten or so years you won’t find mention of it. Some fabricators have even claimed one in four college women are raped. The one in five bit was created by the 2007 Campus Sexual Assault Study. It was an online questionnaire! Sexual assault including kissing! The one in four Leftist/Feminist fantasy goes all the way back to the late 1980’s was the Ms Foundation (remember them?) later revealed the majority of women (about 73%) didn’t even think they had been raped.

An actual study using solid social science methodology found under 3% of college women have been raped. Horrible, but not 20+ percent.

Are men overwhelmingly lust filled out of control rapists? Earlier this year the Leftist alleged “newsmagazine” Newsweek reported a study that a third of college men are rapists or would gladly be rapists. Study sample? 83 men. These were guys from the University of North Dakota. They got extra credit for participating in the survey. Good grief.National news?

So we get down to the Department of Justice, as corrupt as it is, reported at the end of last year that 0.61% of college women are subject to sexual assault. It was after this report that Barry kept saying one in five. His own department.

As I’m writing this, I’m reminded of that sad creature Andrea Dworkin (sometime in late 1970’-80’s? said that all sex is rape. How does one even have a conversation with such knuckleheads?

All this last manifested itself in the Rolling Stone fictional story of a gang rape. There was no party at the frat house that night, the woman making the claim was seen elsewhere that night by at least three people and a whole bunch of other lies were revealed. The guy she named didn’t even exist. Here’s a Leftist/Feminist quote that summarizes their view of journalism, “We should believe, as a matter of default, what an accuser says.” And “to let fact-checking define the narrative would be a huge mistake”. It’s the narrative, not the truth that important. How does discuss or argue with this idiocy?  Remind anyone of Dan Rather saying much the same thing when he was caught fabricating the military record of GW Bush?

When looking at the campuses where all this is allegedly going on, Duke, Occidental, University of Michigan, Stanford, Auburn, all having major rape stories, are all Leftist Universities. Looking over the reporting I don’t see any Christian or Traditional values colleges having all this going on.

I’m thinking, moral codes work. Traditional values work. Applied scripture works. Men and women respecting one another, honoring one another, works.

Plus the other big takeaway, Leftists lie for power and control. Lie to bully and demonize. Lie because the truth would destroy them. So they have to concoct the idea that the narrative is more important that the truth. That’s the sad truth. That these specific lies are destroying peoples lives, and the institutions they belong to makes no diff to them.

Ted Cruz Announcement He's Running for President ---Wow and Amazing.

This man says everything I want to see happen in America. What he says he practices, and that's how he votes. He had stood up to the RINO's in Congress, who spend more time and money attacking Conservatives than they do attacking Democrats. This is an amazing speech. No teleprompter either.

White Leftist NYC Mayor, Crime, Cops and Lies

New York City Mayor, Bill De Blasio, is a cop hater and racist. The racist part is the White Leftist Guilt Trip variety. ‘I’m white but down with the struggle’. He’s gotten officers assassinated, crime increased, more minorities being raped and murdered, with drug trafficking up in those neighborhoods with his attitude and policies.

The two officers that were assassinated, Rafael Ramos and Wenjian Liu, is a direct result of De Blasio’s speaking out against the NYPD. He is against the stop-frisk-question policy that has in fact reduced crime. He’s repeatedly said police officers are the biggest threat to black men. He said nothing about demonstrations chanting “What do we want? Dead cops!” Then there was the Eric Garner taken down for refusing arrest. He was obese, had several medical issues, including asthma, the latter the primary cause of his death. There was never a choke hold. Yet another Jurassic Press lie.

Here’s some numbers, not reported by alleged journalists, and ignored or maybe not known (but should be) by the Leftist Mayor De Blasio. The use of force in arrests means the officer touched the suspect, and the first half of 2014 had that reported in 0.6% of arrests. Reading the NY Times and others, one would think that loose cigarette sales arrests (what Garner was being arrested for) was a huge deal, and use of force was a regular thing. In that same time period, 2014, there were no, zero, use of force arrests for loose cigarette sales.

There was a lot of reporting of reduced arrests and policing of minority areas. Arrests were high, bad guys getting busted because of the stop and frisk program. Officers pretty much quit doing that, since to continue opened them up to charges of racist policing. This was a 95% drop in misdemeanor and traffic violation summonses. That would be exactly what De Blasio wanted, his contention being that kind of policing is racist. That would be a civil rights violation.

What happened with that kind of change in policing? When crime in minority areas skyrocketed? Civil rights of minorities were being violated because of non-enforcement of the law. Say what? If you enforce the law it’s a civil rights violation, and if you don’t enforce the law, it’s a civil rights violation. Of course the alleged “press” reported the enforcement drawdown was only in minority areas. Absolutely false. It was across the board, all precincts and neighborhoods.

Threat assessment? Bad guys in NYC were involved in 1,103 shootings, with 1,299 victims in 2013. NYPD shot 17 people in 2013, dispatched 80,000 times to weapons involved incidents, and had 30,000 of those ending in arrests. So where’s the threat coming from? The racist part? Whites were 5% of suspects shot by police; they committed 2% of weapons crimes. Blacks were 75% of criminal shooters and 79% of police shootings. NYPD have brought down NYC homicide rate 80% in the last 15 to 20 years. But doing so is racist?

Have shootings and crime gone up or down under De Blasio’s anti cop White Leftist racist policies and ideology? Measured against the previous year, NYC shootings were up 82% the week of Jan 5 through 11 of 2015 (over same week previous year). The month before shootings were up 12% over the previous year.

Who are the victims of shootings? Mostly minorities because the ideologically driven, cop hating mayor, forcing the police to withdraw protection from high crime areas.

As for distain the police department has for De Blasio, he was counting on the Asians, Blacks, Mexicans on the force to support him in his Leftist racist policies, and was surprised when all of the police at the funeral for the two assassinated officers turned their backs to him. (The NY Times and other alleged “news” outlets reported only a few, turned their back. All of them did. There may be a few that didn’t but I didn’t see any.) Police put their careers, who they are and what they do, before racial politics. Good for them.

Some Intersting Football History for Super Bowl Sunday

Here’s some interesting information I’ve come across about the history of football. I hadn’t paid much attention to football until 1972. I was a track guy, and could give you stats on lap breakdowns and distances jumped and thrown, sprint times etc. of world class track athletes. What happened in 1972 was the Miami Dolphins. A perfect season. (I lament my New England Patriots had a longer winning streak than the Dolphins, have more games in a season, but didn’t win the Big One that year.)

A perfect season. No loses and winning the Super Bowl. Here’s an interesting tidbit. The average offensive lineman for the Dolphins then was 260 pounds. The national all-star high school team average for offensive linemen is 310 pounds.  Damn.

The concussion issue is being dealt with, and I think with good results. There are, I think, 2,000 NFL players. They’re all super well compensated and have the highest quality medical care both on and off the field. There are about 3 million kids playing the game, and there are somewhere between 50,000 to 60,000 concussions a year. From various sports articles I’ve read, it seems this is being addressed, though I can’t determine effectiveness.

A little history I just learned is pretty stunning. At the beginning of the 20th century there was a move to get the game outlawed. Players were allowed to punch each other. Fighting was pretty much allowed. Broken noses, broken arms, and in 1905 nineteen players died.

College football was a nasty business too. Didn’t know this either, but there were players called “ringers” that were professional football players that would suit up and play on college teams. Turns out Theodore Roosevelt called several football officials to the White House and told them they need to clean up their act. They did, and that pretty much launched the modern era of the game.

Vile Anti-Semitism by Protesters in NYC Council Meeting. Councilman David G. Greenfield’s response. Epic.

Anti-Semitism is on the rise in America, and has become well established again in Europe. We are only a few years behind. Part of it many Jews in this country and Europe worship the State rather than God. That didn’t go well prior to WWII. Now they’re doing it again. The other part of it, a huge part is the anti-Semitism of Barack Obama, his administration and the Democrat Party.

If you’ll remember their last convention they took God and Jerusalem out of the Party Platform and when they took a voice vote to add God and Jerusalem as the capital of Jerusalem, there was booing. This political party booed God. Wouldn’t look so good during the campaign if Obama were running on the platform denouncing God and Israel.

To the here and now. January 23 at a meeting of the NYC City Council, Palestinian activists unfurled a Palestinian flag and yelled interruptions while there was a discussion and vote commemorating the slaughter of over a million human beings, mostly Jews at Auschwitz.

Here’s Councilman David G. Greenfield’s response.


Here's Mark Levin's commentary on the rise of anti-Semitism. It includes Councilman Greenfield's comments.
