Just a wild guess, but I bet these kids have never played dodge ball either….

(OREGON) A junior high school suspended a student and turned him over to police because of a “doodle” he drew showing a person being hanged, his father claims in court.

Robert Bernard Keller sued the Beaverton Police Department and Beaverton School District in Federal Court. Beaverton is a suburb of Portland.

Keller, suing for himself and his son, B.R.K., claims that on May 2, 2013, his 13-year-old son “was interviewed at his school, Raleigh Hills, K-8, by officers of the Beaverton Police Department regarding an alleged threat of harm based on a doodle that was drawn during class.  (read more)

This Michael Sam situation is wrong on so many levels….   Apparently now it is disclosed the deal with OWN TV was planned long before the NFL draft and kept secret so that it did not impact his draft potential.

This level of manipulation and deceit is exactly why people like me, who ordinarily don’t give a hoot about sexual orientation issues, find ourselves with horrible opinions of the pressuring, scheming, conniving and manipulation within the gay rights movement.  This is not how you gain support – it’s the EXACT opposite.  A good analysis in that regard is HERE (Hat Tip Tex)

(Via Sports Illustrated)  The Oprah Winfrey Network is set to begin production on a documentary series surrounding Michael Sam, a plan that Sam and his representatives knew about before the draft. The problem? The latter group didn’t disclose that fact to the St. Louis Rams or other teams.

Per ESPN’s Ed Werder, Sam and Co. didn’t disclose their OWN documentary plans to teams ahead of the draft out of fear that he “might not be picked.” St. Louis scooped up Sam at pick No. 249 overall. (more…)

In March of 2011 Senator Chuck Schumer posted the following announcement:

Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer joined Remington officials and plant employees to announce that Bushmaster Firearms is relocating a manufacturing facility from Windham, Maine to Ilion, NY, bringing over forty new jobs to Central New York in the process.   Schumer has been a long-time supporter of manufacturing at the Remington plant, urging top Army officials to open up competition for the Army’s small arms contracts to other U.S. manufacturers and domestic producers across the country like the Ilion, New York-based Remington. Today, Schumer applauded Remington’s decision to add new jobs to the productive and capable work force already making the factory an economic powerhouse in the Mohawk Valley.

“What a great day for Remington’s Ilion plant, the Mohawk Valley, and Central New York’s economy,” said Senator Schumer. “Thanks to Remington’s continued confidence in this capable workforce, we’re going to see even more good-paying jobs at the plant, creating positive ripple effects throughout the region.

If you are unfamiliar with the Dept. of Justice “Operation Chokepoint” you are not alone.  Details are challenging to work out, but essentially it’s a stealth directive (operation) from the Eric Holder DOJ to identify “at risk profiles” within the banking industry and ‘choke off’ the selected individual(s), and businesses, from access to financial services (banking).

Essentially if you find yourself identified in the DOJ crosshairs – the banking industry is instructed to close down your accounts and access to services.    It’s like the IRS leverage, only applied to individuals and not organizations.   More info HERE.

Yes, I guess one could say that Eleanor Clift is “gaslighting“.  But what’s remarkable is the strength of her position that Ambassador Stevens wasn’t murdered. In a recent Daily Beast Column she advances the same position. Here’s where it first began:

Clift also writes for the Daily Beast, and to give you some perspective on how she can justify her position here’s how she follows up: (more…)

Many are troubled by this, myself included. I’d like to know the entire backstory of this event and relationship. Is this standard operating procedure for this teacher?

Well I guess that answers my previous question about whether Mr. Sam wanted to be an NFL football player or something else.  

Apparently something else.

Why else would you selfishly plan to put your teammates through the distraction of a media crew following you around training camp, unless your real goal was something other than being an exceptional athlete, developing team cohesion and making the cut.

I suspected all along since Sam originally and publicly “came out”.    I mean, no-one was asking about his sexual orientation so initially it never made sense he would hold a presser to proclaim it to the world.    The signals were there in that first well advertised press announcement.   Something other than football was being planned, organized, coordinated and strategized.

TIME MAGAZINE – Oprah Winfrey’s OWN cable network announced Wednesday it’s creating a docuseries that will follow Michael Sam, the first openly gay man drafted to the National Football League, as he starts his career with the St. Louis Rams. (more…)

Yes, it’s true that New York Times editor Jill Abramson was recently “fired” and replaced.    However, not because she’s a woman who asked for a pay raise – but rather because she has done the most sacrilegious offense to the towers of progdom, she exposed the falsehood behind the White House claims of transparency.

It’s an easy mistake to make, because much of the recent leftist push has been structured around the so called other sides’ “war on women”, and women’s issues  in general (See #BringBackOurGirls et al and also this).

Yes, indeed the intentional strategy to try and retain power for Democrats and the White house has been to slide “racism” -as a leveraging tool- over a bit, and to make room for “sexism” leverage to take a greater role.    [Democrats always use victimization as substantiation for their social justice campaign and agenda(s).]  With Hillary running in 2016 the shift to sexism serves multiple goals.  (more…)

ST. LOUIS (CBS St. Louis) – Employees at an Obamacare processing center in Missouri have very little work and are often paid to do nothing, a whistleblower tells KMOV-TV.

“The main thing is that the Data Entry side does not have hardly any work to do. They’re told to sit at their computers and hit the refresh button every ten minutes- no more than every ten minutes. They’re monitored to hopefully look for an application. Their goals are set to process two applications per month and some people are not even able to do that,” the employee told the station, which withheld the employee’s identity.

Serco, an a British-based staffing company, was awarded a 12-year federal government contract worth more than $1.2 billion to process Obamacare paper applications. (more…)
