London sets its priorities. “Gender” neutral bathrooms for all: Links 1, Nov. 21, 2018

1. Khan’s London City Hall Scraps Female Showers, Goes ‘Gender Neutral’.

Sadiq Khan’s City Hall has replaced female toilets and shower rooms with “gender neutral” facilities, Breitbart London can reveal, prompting concerns the changes will be rolled out across the city and possibly put biological women at risk.

Sources inside the headquarters of the Greater London Authority (GLA) and the Mayor of London’s offices say the changes have been made in some of the staff areas on the upper floors.

 

Images passed to Breitbart London show new signs, which are claimed to have appeared this week, reading “Gender Neutral Toilets and Showers.” Some of the men’s toilets, with urinals, are still marked as for men.

The shower rooms have always been available to both men and women, but the sign on the door previously showed a man and a woman. The female toilets were previously marked as for females.

(Glad to see murder plagued, Islamic dominated London mayor has his priorities straight.)

2. Poland Pulls Out: UN Migration Pact ‘Will Make Migrant Crisis Worse’

Poland has announced it would be following nations including the U.S., Hungary, and Austria in pulling out of the UN migration pact, which it said would only “intensify” problems with illegal immigration.

Speaking on Radio Poland Tuesday, Defence Minister Mariusz B?aszczak confirmed the country would not be going to Marrakech next month to sign the agreement, which he said was “not a good solution” to Europe’s immigrant influx.

 

“This is not a method that would make it possible to reduce the migration crisis. On the contrary, it would only intensify the crisis,” B?aszczak told the public broadcaster, adding that Poland is cooperating with its fellow Visegrád nations to ‘migrant-proof’ external EU borders on the bloc’s east.

3. November 20, 2018 Judge Bernard Friedman, of the US Federal District Court in Detroit ruled that a federal law barring Female Genitalia Mutilation 

On November 20, 2018 Judge Bernard Friedman, of the US Federal District Court in Detroit ruled that a federal law barring Female Genitalia Mutilation (FGM) was unconstitutional since it was in his opinion a law made regarding religion. There are several issues with this erroneous ruling.

  1.  A federal district court is not the US Supreme Court which is the only court that has the power to determine constitutionality of a federal law.
  2. The Judge is declaring himself the equivalent of nine justices on the Supreme Court in Washington, DC. In doing this it calls into question his mental health.
  3. This ruling is a display of bias against those who brought charges disqualifying him from making a ruling in the first place.
  4. FGM is a medical procedure. It is not a religious procedure. It requires surgery, and should require anesthesia, stitches and follow-up care.

 1. A federal district court is not the US Supreme Court which is the only court that has the power to determine constitutionality of a federal law.

According to US Courts.gov, federal courts, “Federal courts hear cases involving the constitutionality of a law, cases involving the laws and treaties of the U.S. ambassadors and public ministers, disputes between two or more states, admiralty law, also known as maritime law, and bankruptcy cases.” However, this is a summarization of the roles of the entire judiciary branch of the federal government. It does not define what a federal district court does. This is found below:

 The nation’s 94 district or trial courts are called U.S. District Courts. District courts resolve disputes by determining the facts and applying legal principles to decide who is right.

Trial courts include the district judge who tries the case and a jury that decides the case. Magistrate judges assist district judges in preparing cases for trial. They may also conduct trials in misdemeanor cases. (http://www.uscourts.gov/about-federal-courts/court-role-and-structure)

4. Substantial Increase in Sex Assault Reports in Sweden Since 2013

There has been a surge in the number of reported sexual assaults in Sweden, with over six per cent of women saying they had been victims of sex crimes in the past year alone.

Criminal statistics agency Brå reported that the number of adult women aged 18 to 84 who have experienced some sort of sexual assault had risen from 4.7 per cent of the population in 2016, to 6.4 per cent in 2017.

 

According to the agency, “Between 2006 and 2012, the level was relatively stable, but since 2013, the proportion that claims to be exposed to sexual offences has shown a clear increase.”

 

Maria Söderström, an investigator at Brå, commented on the report saying, “It is important to keep in mind that sexual offence is a crime category that encompasses a wide range of crimes. Everything from events such as violent sexual comments, to very serious crimes, such as rape.”
5. For those that feel its good to keep an eye on enemy propaganda to understand the state of things, I have a URL for a popular leftist program which details the tactics and strategy and underlying ideology that the Globalist/Marxists are at, for this moment. This broadcast was an analysis of the 2018 election.
Remember, there are two basic kinds of enemy propaganda. That meant for internal consumption, which this is, and that meant for enemy consumption, which is what the New York Times, Washington Post, and other outlets peddling far leftism and normalcy goes. The following URL needs to be copy pasted into your browser. It is a Sound Cloud link, so its not harmful to your computer. But the contents may be upsetting to your sensibilities.
I believe the organization is called, “Democracy Now” and is influential.
https://soundcloud.com/democracyincolor/midterm-elections-2018-not-a-blue-wave-but-a-brown-one

It is also important to listen to whatever voices are attempting to mitigate or at least attenuate the problems the leftist-islamic axis are creating. Maxime Bernier is one of those voices and we provided the English parts of his speech to Canadians last night on the site.

Nearly no one has watched it. Which is disappointing. But does show why no one is bothering to try and help. Here it is again for anyone who might wish to see what at least one serious politician and parliamentarian is trying to do, to restore classical liberal values in Canada.

If voices like Maxime’s are ignored, there is only a couple of places to go after that if history is our teacher. Neither of them are good and one is fully unacceptable.

Thank you Amy Mek, M., Wrath of Khan, Xanthippa, EB., Richard, Kathy, MissPiggy and all who sent in important materials in the last few days.

  1. 3 – The decision to over turn the FGM case was because the idiots in Congress that wrote the law used the commerce clause (which gives Congress the right to regulate interstate commerce) to justify the law, as is stated at the link FGM is a medical practice not interstate commerce.

    While I am upset over the ruling is going to allow FGM I am pleased that someone finally decided that using the Commerce Clause to justify Federal Laws and Regulations is Congressional over reach. Congress has been using that clause wrongly for many decades and it is time to end the practice. Granted with the Dems in control of the House it will be two years or more before another law outlawing FGM can get through Congress but the precedent that was set will hopefully be used to over turn other laws that were justified using the commerce clause but have nothing to do with interstate commerce.

  2. 5/ Remember, there are two basic kinds of enemy propaganda. That meant for internal consumption, which this is, and that meant for enemy consumption, which is what the New York Times, Washington Post, and other outlets peddling far leftism and normalcy goes.

    When you read or view items from PressTV, Middle East Eye, TRT-TurkTV, and the like, you’re reading/viewing enemy propaganda crafted for Western consumption, specifically the powerful U.S. audience.

    Turks and Iranians aren’t seeing this stuff – this is for us.
    They’re remarkably sophisticated propaganda nozzles because they’ve studied Soviet models for decades. RT, Sputnik, and al-Jazeera are presentation prototypes for this modern version of our own WW-2 broadcasts to Occupied Europe.

    They’re consonant with leftist corporate media in general, but shaped by a logic all their own. Their objectives are more pointed.

    So if you see TurkTV at the Mexican border interviewing migrants about PTrump’s policies, remember that it’s Erdogan and the Muslim Brotherhood appealing directly to YOU.

    They’re getting extremely slick – that doesn’t mean they’re credible.

  3. Judge Dismisses FGM Charges Against Michigan Doctor

    A federal judge dismissed FGM charges against a Michigan doctor on a legal loophole. U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman agreed with the defense that the law under which the doctor was being charged with female genital mutilation (FGM) was unconstitutional.

    Dr. Jumana Nagarwal — who belongs to the Dawoodi Bohra, a Muslim sect from India — was charged with mutilating nine young girls, acts forbidden under the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution.

    Nagarwal’s attorneys argued performing FGM has no bearing on commerce, an opinion concurred with by the judge:

    “As despicable as this practice may be, it is essentially a criminal assault,” Friedman wrote. “FGM is not part of a larger market and it has no demonstrated effect on interstate commerce. The Commerce Clause does not permit Congress to regulate a crime of this nature.”

    Friedman further explained how FGM does not fit into the Necessary and Proper Clause of the commerce law:

    Richard: This is what most people inside and outside of the United States forget, unless the crime is committed against the United States or on Federal Property criminal acts are the business of the State Laws and Courts. Remember Constitution spells out what the Federal Government can do and if it isn’t specifically spelled out in the Constitution the Federal Government is forbidden to do anything. With the People it is the other way around, if something isn’t specifically forbidden it is permitted. That is the way the US laws are suppose to work, over the 20th Century the left wing activists Judges have been chipping away at the Constitution and bringing more under Federal Law when the actions are clearly required to be State business.

    Rememberr the Federal system was set up so most crimes would be local or state offenses with very few offenses Federal Offenses. The left doesn’t want that to be the case because this lets various states have laws that are harsher or more lenient then the other states. The idea was that the States would be the labs of democracy with the people voting with their feet which set of laws they want to life under.

    Having said that I think FGM is a cruel and barbaric practice that should be outlawed, but it is up to each of the 50 states to outlaw it rather then the Federal Government. The more times the Activists Judges move things from the States to the Federal Government the weaker the Constitution gets and all of our rights are placed under graver peril, which is what the left wants.

    I await the harsh criticism of the women on the Blog and those who don’t understand Federalism and how it is suppose to work. Strict Federalism says that the vast majority of what the Federal Government does in Unconstitutional but it will take the better part of a Century to a Century and a half to return the Federal Government to the size it is suppose to be.

    • Richard: More from the article

      Friedman said the power to ban FGM falls under the purview of individual states.

      “FGM is a ‘local criminal activity’ which, in keeping with long-standing tradition and our federal system of government, is for the states to regulate, not Congress,” Friedman wrote.

      To date, 27 states have made the practice illegal. Michigan passed an anti-FGM law last year after Nagarwal and her co-defendants were charged by the federal government. The Michigan law mandates stiffer punishment than the federal law, making those guilty of performing FGM liable to 15 years in prison versus five years as mandated by the federal law.

      However, the Michigan law cannot be applied to the defendants retroactively.

    • Nagarwal’s attorneys argued performing FGM has no bearing on commerce, an opinion concurred with by the judge…

      Just wait until the civilized world no longer tolerates FGM and does a BDS (Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions) on all countries or corporations that do not actively and openly oppose FGM.

      Then, let’s have a nice little chat about how, “FGM has no bearing on commerce”.

      • It is still a States Issue not a Federal Issue, if we are willing to throw away Federalism for this case we have to willingly accept the left increasing the power and scope of the Federal Government until they have sole control over all of the laws.

        What makes you think any part of the world is civilized enough to be upset by the FGM? As far as I can see every nation (with the possible exception of Japan) is busy throwing civilization out the window.

          I am compelled to agree with you. Over the past several decades, State’s Rights have been given a real thrashing. I’m guessing that Activist Judges on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals have had a hand in this constant hammering upon the Constitution.

          What makes you think any part of the world is civilized enough to be upset by the FGM?

          Sheer blind optimism. I freely admit that if modern countries are not already horrorstruck by FGM, then there’s little hope of them becoming sufficiently aghast about it at some unspecified future date.

    Killing your first born is a religious duty.
    Sacrificing people by ripping out hearts is a religious duty.
    Having slaves, is a religious duty.

    None of those Gods had ever changed Their minds. Only people with different Gods forced them to stop. This was and is religious oppression, and reinstatement with full reparations are in order. Illegal immigrants will receive immediate Citizenship, Housing and Welfare if they come forward and identify their own personal injustice at the hands of The White Man.

    1. Female Showers only have to be labelled “Femaled”. Because, we all know what that means: for everyone imprinted who then takes their identity from the female form. These are LBGTQ identitarians and include muslims who check-out a child’s first menses. Fixated on rape, in mind or body. The female sitting squarely right inside of them. Kissing their own Black Stones of Mecca.

    However, there cannot be an equivalent “maled.” You either have testicles or you don’t. The femaled may go inside for sex with a male and will simply find another greater or lesser-femaled than themselves, (this self-deception brought on by sub-dom interaction), and everyone who is ‘maled,’ for example by wearing a slave-name of submission, is instantly femaled.

    Therefore Male and Femaled will suffice.

    For men, to be left in peace, this will be a total blessing. A muslim free zone, a homosexual free zone, a socialist free zone.

    However, once Feminists realize this, they will storm the place and occupy it in a protest of Equal Rights.

  5. Poland has announced it would be following nations including the U.S., Hungary, and Austria in pulling out of the UN migration pact, which it said would only “intensify” problems with illegal immigration.

    When they say “intensify”, what they really mean is, “upgefück“.

  6. US judge drops doctor genital mutilation charges (france24, Nov 21, 2018)
    https://www.france24.com/en/20181121-us-judge-drops-doctor-genital-mutilation-charges

    “NEW YORK (AFP) – A US judge has dropped federal female genital mutilation charges filed against a Michigan doctor, ruling that Congress overstepped its authority in prohibiting a practice best left to state courts.

    In what was hailed a landmark case, Jumana Nagarwala was charged in April 2017 with performing the widely condemned practice on nine girls at a clinic in Livonia, Michigan over a span of 12 years.

    But in a decision filed Tuesday, Judge Bernard Friedman ruled that Congress had “overstepped its bounds by legislating to prohibit FGM.”

    Instead the practice should be considered a “‘local criminal activity’ which, in keeping with longstanding tradition and our federal system of government, is for the states to regulate, not Congress,” he wrote.

    Congress passed a law in 1996 making it illegal to perform genital mutilation or cutting on any girl younger than 18.

    Twenty-seven US states also have anti-FGM legislation, including Michigan, while 23 states have yet to criminalize the practice.

    “As despicable as this practice may be, it is essentially a criminal assault,” wrote Friedman.

    The judge’s ruling saw charges of conspiring to commit and committing FGM dropped, as well as counts of aiding and abetting others to do so.

    Nagarwala still faces other conspiracy charges.

    Her lawyer, Shannon Smith, was quoted by CNN as saying that her client was “ecstatic” over the decision, but “nervous because she still faces other charges in federal court.”

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated that 513,000 women and girls in the United States in 2012 were at risk of or had been subjected to female genital mutilation.

    The statistic was three times higher than one based on 1990 data, due to increased immigration from countries where genital mutilation is practiced.

    Globally, at least 200 million girls and women alive today have suffered some form of FGM across 30 countries, according to the United Nations.

    While concentrated in Africa, it is common in some communities in Asia, Arab states and Latin America. Half of those cut live in Egypt, Ethiopia and Indonesia, according to the UN.”

    • And so a crime against humanity, on American soil, goes unstopped.

      The removal of the clitoris.

      Let that sink in. How far Socialism has travelled. You are just a Worker doing your Job. No moral compass.

      A crime by no other name.
