“Sources with knowledge of the sting said the investigation made financial pitches to both Republicans and Democrats, but only Democrats accepted the payments.”

 PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA – The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office ran an undercover sting operation over three years that captured leading Philadelphia Democrats, including four members of the city’s state House delegation, on tape accepting money, The Inquirer has learned.
Yet no one was charged with a crime.
Prosecutors began the sting in 2010 when Republican Tom Corbett was attorney general. After Democrat Kathleen G. Kane took office in 2013, she shut it down.
In a statement to The Inquirer on Friday, Kane called the investigation poorly conceived, badly managed, and tainted by racism, saying it had targeted African Americans.
{snip, it “targeted African Americans” is a misnomer.  African Americans were caught as an outcome, not an intent.   Think about it – This is the concept of “disparate impact’ applied to the rule of law.  Whereas using ‘disparate impact’ logic: law enforcement, or lawful investigation, is defined as “targeting” by the result, not the intent.  If you say stealing a car is unlawful, and you target car thieves, and all of the thieves are black – then arresting car thieves is ‘targeting African Americans’… /SD}

FAIRFIELD, Calif. – Joshua Cooper, a teen father in Northern California, is under arrest after police say he bit the nose off his 1-month-old son because he was frustrated with the infant’s crying.
Fairfield police say Cooper, 18, was being held Friday in the Solano County Jail on suspicion of child cruelty and aggravated mayhem.
Police say they received a call Thursday by a distraught woman who said her baby was bleeding from his nose.
Doctors later determined the child suffered a skull fracture, a brain hemorrhage and that one third of the child’s nose had been severed.
The child is in stable condition at Oakland Children’s Hospital. (more…)

Ah, Madison Wisconsin – ground zero home of ‘white guilt’.   Madison, Wisconsin – where the most radical of radical progressives have violently attacked any non-black who dare stand up to their insufferable stupidity.  Madison Wisconsin where they teach a class on:

“How to Exploit White Guilt for Fun and Profit

• Wear a white wristband as a reminder about your privilege, and as a personal commitment to explain why you wear the wristband.
• Set aside sections of the day to critically examine how privilege is working.
• Put a note on your mirror or computer screen as a reminder to think about privilege

REALITY BEGS TO DIFFER – – – MADISON (WKOW) — Police arrested six people believed to be involved in what they’re calling one of the most brutal crimes in recent memory.
Madison police say three men planned a home invasion, but broke into the wrong home on Quincy Avenue on the north side around 6 a.m. on February 23.

Police say the suspects were aware it was not the intended home, but they proceeded to violently attack the two victims who had been sleeping. The suspects are accused of repeatedly sexually assaulting the woman who was six months pregnant. (more…)

In January of 2012 ABC’s George Stephanolopous asked then GOP candidate Mitt Romney if “state government had a responsibility to provide or ban birth control“? Watch it again:

WASHINGTON DC – Make no mistake, there is always a deeper agenda whenever a seemingly innocent campaign pops up overnight. (more…)

Ted Cruz is a real threat to the Fabian progressives:  educated, cultured and able to effortless pierce their shibboleths without hesitation, he is a prime target for their ongoing campaign to “isolate, marginalize and ridicule” their opposition, instead of engaging on the facts.
The following AP filed story is a classic example of how the mainstream media manipulates language and facts to advance a position in keeping with their ideological view – in this case, that all pro-life supporters are unhinged, when in fact, it was the “pro-abortion” activists who conducted themselves in an extremist and deliberately provocative fashion.  The AP led their story by implying that Senator Cruz had called pro-abortionists “Satan Worshippers”, when he stated that they were chanting “Hail Satan” at pro-life activists.

“Here is the opening graf of an AP report on “anti-abortion voters” published Wednesday:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Calling their opponents Satan worshippers and savages, anti-abortion lawmakers on Wednesday insisted that Republican contenders keep an intense focus on social issues in the upcoming midterm elections and the 2016 presidential race.

“Calling their opponents Satan worshippers.” That sounds pretty serious. Tell us more, AP: …

We knew last year the diversionary activity around the Miami-Dade School Police Department, which was coordinated, sanctioned and authorized by Miami-Dade School Superintendent, Alberto Carvalho, was illegal.
Consequently we knew a public airing of the illegal activity was a risk to all parties involved.

Now, however – the entire School Board might be legally responsible for engaging in unlawful conspiracy which resulted from the internal investigation within the M-DSPD and the School Boards’ “willful blindness” to the actual finding(s).
It doesn’t take a law degree to understand that when you intentionally construct a policy, or group of policies, which specifically hide illegal behavior you are on the wrong side of the law – even when it is the top law enforcement officer giving the instructions to do it. (more…)

They, well… that would be Obama bundler and Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg, even built a website for it.   Seriously, I’m not kidding.  Ban the word “bossy”.  D’oh.

Treon Johnson, is the star of some backyard fighting videos.  Videos that are about to be a part of a documentary on the blood sport.  He died in police custody after neighbors claimed he was beating a dog to death with a metal pipe.   He jumped onto the roof.  The Police used pepper spray and a taser to subdue him.   

Yet the media, wait for it,…. are showing pictures of  “Tre” Johnson as a young lad in a tuxedo…..   Because using one of the several previous mug shots would be too difficult I guess.  Sound familiar ?

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. –  The family of a man suspected of abusing dogs wants to know what led to his mysterious death.

Here’s a clue for ya’, he was beating a dog with a pipe after the completion of filming his latest documentary on “back yard fighting”,… DUH…. /SD

Treon Johnson died just hours after being taken into custody Thursday.  Hialeah police said a 911 caller claimed the 27-year-old man jumped into the backyard of his home and was beating his dog with a metal pipe. Witnesses told police Johnson then jumped into a neighboring yard and began beating another dog with a pipe.  (read more with wonderful NBC video of young misunderstood tuxedo wearing sweetie set to the music of violin concertos )

GEORGETOWN – D.C. Police are working to identify about a dozen teens wanted for setting up a “flash mob”-style robbery at a high-end jeans store in Georgetown two weeks ago.

Surveillance videos from Feb. 20 shows the teens entering the True Religion Brand Jeans store on M Street just before 6:30 p.m.

The teens then stuffed more than a thousand dollars worth of the jeans into bags they’d brought with them before running out of the store, in just a couple minutes.

“I can’t believe all of those people could steal something all at one time,” said Maria Suyat, an employee at the neighboring Camper shoe store. “…We’ve had plenty of people steal a few shoes just from our window display, so I can only imagine having all that merchandise taken all at once.” (more…)

Trayvon Martin was not an end, he was a beginning to an end. His death was a useful tool at a specific moment in time.  The actual goal was established long before George and Trayvon encountered each other.

Affirmative Action had run its natural course. Doors had opened and what began as an extension of the Civil Rights movement was no longer a useful tool for social engineering.
Equality in opportunity (Affirmative Action) had long been established. What was now needed was a progressive evolution to equality in outcome; enter “Disparate Impact” to take its place.
The entire construct of all the various alliances which sought benefit from using the Trayvon Martin shooting had one thing in common – the goal of social justice through equal outcomes. Zimmerman himself was irrelevant, merely a face/name to replace the worn out mantra of “the man”.
In the 60’s the Civil Rights Act was established to legislate equal opportunity. In the 70’s and 80’s Affirmative Action, or broadly “quota systems”, were put into place to leverage a social-equity in organizational entry. Through the 90’s and early part of the 21st century various studies were conducted to insure the entry opportunity was fundamentally well established. The entry was there, but for the social scientists the problem shifted to the “outcomes”. The outcomes were simply not matching the opportunities. (more…)
