1. Important observation by Patrick Moore on the effects vs. the reasoning behind new California environmental laws
(Clearly these laws are about control and destruction, and not about the environment)
An alleged terrorist stabbed one person to death in Paris this afternoon and wounded four others with knives before he was shot dead by police.
Witnesses told local media the attacker was yelling ‘Allahu Akbar’ as he launched the assault in the Hautes-Bruyères park in the suburb of Villejuif shortly after 2pm on Friday.
Police said the attacker appeared to be wearing an explosive vest and had made off towards a Carrefour supermarket just under a mile away where he was ‘neutralised,’ shot several times and died at the scene.
As well as the dead victim, two others have been rushed to hospital and remain in a ‘critical condition,’ authorities said.
Footage taken at the scene showed armed police moving through the car park of the supermarket and firing shots at the attacker who was seen lying in the middle of a nearby road.
The victims are believed to have been targeted at random and a motive has not yet been established.

6. UBC event cancelled, debate continues about free expression on campus
The University of B.C. could face a lawsuit from a free speech club after cancelling a potentially controversial speaking event at the end of January, citing “safety and security.”
However, a free expression expert said he believes the school isn’t stifling free speech, as The Free Speech Club is alleging, and doesn’t have a duty to host an event if it isn’t part of the university’s academic mission.
“The speaker has every freedom of expression right to express his views. This group of students has every freedom of expression right to find a place to hold an event to let him express his views. It’s just the university doesn’t have an obligation to be that place,” said James Turk, director of Ryerson University’s Centre for Free Expression.
Andy Ngo, editor at large for the right-wing news site Post Millennial, was scheduled to deliver a talk called “Understanding Antifa (Anti-fascist) Violence,” at UBC’s Robson Square campus on Jan. 29.
The Free Speech Club, which organized the event, had paid the booking deposit and the talk was confirmed in November. However, the club was notified on Dec. 20 that the event was cancelled.
(Although this argument has merit, should one make a graph of the kind of events that are often held and not cancelled, one could make the case for a selective enforcement that shows an unmistakable policy. Not just of dialectic twists to the left, but at the very least of submission to thugs and tyrants like ANTIFA. This makes the venue argument invalid in our opinion)
7. Shiia muslims are either very angry at the USA, or show how much cheaper colour printer ink is in Iran that they can print 11X17 photos and just set them on fire like that.
Thank you M., Wrath of Khan, EB., Johnny U., Xanthippa, and many more who diligently keep up with events to inform us all.
Pukistan. Yawn.
When I hear them singing their Muslim call-and-respond song I am filled with horror and revulsion at the idea that even the smallest part of that culture might rub off onto our own. Does that make me a “racist”? I do not admire Islamic culture and I do not wish to see it promulgated inside our culture – which I happen to like very much. It has nothing to do with skin color. We believe in democracy and in a sense of reasonableness that is not shared by every person on Earth and I don’t see why we should let people into our world who do not share those basic core values. If someone moves here and then votes to ban freedom of speech or democracy then we made a mistake letting them in. Why is that such a difficult little point to make…?
