UK judge feels that women should have no actual responsibility for their actions.
If one were to extrapolate this reasoning then all of us could become vigilantes of the harshest kind. Of course, we know full well what would happen if our annoyances at day-to-day realities were to motivate us to take action against random strangers being nice to us in a fully-appropriate location. That is, if we were male, doubly so if white and again, if a Western-nation indigenous person such as a secular or Judeo-Christian person.
“How do you write women so well?”
“Easy. I think of a man and remove all accountability and reason”
I guess this judge was a fan of Jack Nicholson in As Good as it Gets.
From The Daily Mail:
Judge refuses to jail woman plumber who glassed nightclubber who smiled at her ‘because she had been sexually harassed during training’
- Attacker walks free after judge says harassment was to blame for her behaviour
- Judge describes her harassment as ‘intolerable’ and says she is ‘impeccable character’
- Victim was described as being in the ‘wrong place at the wrong time’

Spared jail: Sheona Keith, 22, hurled her glass at a man she thought was ‘eyeing her up’
A woman who glassed a male clubber that smiled at her – and then blamed the attack on the fact she was sexually harassed at work – was spared jail by a judge.
Sheona Keith threw her glass at a man in a nightclub who she thought was ‘eyeing her up’, in an unprovoked attack which resulted in him needing hospital treatment.
However, a judge refused to give her a custodial sentence after accepting that earlier sexual harassment she suffered at work was the reason behind her behaviour.
Instead, 22-year-old Keith – who admitted a charge of actual bodily harm against James Kirkham – was given a conditional discharge and ordered to pay £400 compensation by Judge Philip Wassall when she was sentenced at Exeter Crown Court.
Describing Keith’s case as ‘unique’, Judge Wassall said she had an ‘impeccable character’ and that the sexual harassment she had suffered was ‘intolerable’.
At one point he said that she threw the glass ‘without knowing’ it was in her hand and described the victim as being ‘in the wrong place at the wrong time’.
Passing sentence, Judge Wassall told Keith: ‘You worked hard but your chosen line of work took you into a completely male-dominated environment and one where, I am afraid, you had to put up with sexist comments and harassment which there is no excuse for.
Canadian Human Rights Tribunal boss faces harassment accusations
Daily Brew:
The Conservative-appointed head of the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal is under fire for allegedly harassing her own staff.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper named Alberta lawyer Shirish Chotalia, chairwoman of the tribunal in November 2009. The tribunal hears complaints referred to it by the Canadian Human Rights Commission.
Now the Ottawa Citizen’s Chris Cobb reports an independent labour investigator has upheld harassment complaints against Chotalia from two staff members.
Lawyer Philip Chodos concluded she engaged in “baffling, if not bizarre” behaviour. Chotalia faces two more harassment complaints. Her employees last year accused her of creating a toxic atmosphere in the workplace.
More than half the tribunal’s 25-member staff left via sick leave or retirement in her first year on the job, the Citizen reported.
Chodos was appointed to investigate under an agreement with Chotalia and unions representing her staff.
The process is considered unusual since harassment complaints normally are handled by the heads of the affected government department or agency. Continue Reading →
‘Divide and rule’ Diane Abbott sent son to £6,000 private school in Ghana
A little lefty hypocrisy here. I am reliably informed, that the very same people in Los Angeles who have ruined most of the schools there with abhorrent and anti-freedom policies also send their children to private schools as a rule, leaving the working classes the leftist-elites are supposed to be so fond of, to send their children to the very schools the elites destroyed.
Communism. Ain’t it grand? Good enough for thee, but not for me.

Rules for journalists by the National Union of Journalists
This explains a great deal actually, about why the news doesn’t seem to be much in touch with actual reality on the ground. What a tragic shame. I might add, it would be an interesting contest to see who can find the most contradictions in this clearly socialist agenda driven yet, I am reliably informed, very influential organization.

NUJ guidelines on race reporting.
Guidelines ratified by the National Union of Journalists (UK and Ireland) for all its members to follow when dealing with race relations subjects.
Statement on race reporting
1. The NUJ believes that the development of racist attitudes and the growth of fascist parties pose a threat to democracy, the rights of trade union organisations, a free press and the development of social harmony and well-being.
2. The NUJ believes that its members cannot avoid a measure of responsibility in fighting the evil of racism as expressed through the mass media.
3. The NUJ reaffirms its total opposition to censorship but equally reaffirms its belief that press freedom must be conditioned by responsibility and an acknowledgement by all media workers of the need not to allow press freedom to be abused to slander a section of the community or to promote the evil of racism.

Norway issues pre-Christmas reindeer slaughter threat
The Local:
Norway’s agriculture minister has threatened to enforce a mass cull of tens of thousands of reindeer unless the Sami authority tasked with herding the animals steps up its efforts to cut the burgeoning population.
- Stoltenberg at South Pole for 100th anniversary of Amundsen trek (12 Dec 11)
- Norwegians step up online butter search (15 Dec 11)
- Trio share ‘Norwegian of the year’ award (15 Dec 11)
According to the Norwegian Reindeer Herders’ Association (NRL), the move would entail the slaughter of as much as a fifth of the reindeer population in the vast Finnmark region, newspaper Aftenposten reports.
“The state is calling for the compulsory slaughter of 60,000 reindeer. They have no right to intervene with such force,” said NRL chief Nils Henrik Sara.
He accused the state of repeatedly changing the rules governing reindeer husbandry without any forewarning or the provision of guidelines, and said the NRL would take a case to the international courts if necessary.
The state has long been on a collision course with reindeer herders from the indigenous Sami minority, and the comments made by Agriculture Minister Lars Peder Brekk when presenting the new strategy last week have done little to ease tensions.
“The high reindeer population is a threat to reindeer husbandry and the entire culture surrounding reindeer herding,” said Brekk (Centre Party).
The minister believes the current reindeer population is unsustainable and implored reindeer herders to take steps to impose a ceiling on the number of animals they keep.
Brekk’s department wants the herders to reduce their financial losses and increase production.
The authorities are also seeking to avoid a repeat of last winter’s scenes, when police received a worryingly high number of reports of dead reindeer thought to have starved to the death amid a grazing shortage on the Finnmark plateau.

Trying to counter the official versions of events when the truth is clearly not what is presented.
The recent attack by a Muslim immigrant to Belgium where he deliberately targeted children and Christmas shoppers with illegal weapons in Belgium has been nicely swept clean of all potential for accusations of Islamic influence etc.
His face book page has nothing left on it except 19 ‘friends’, most of whom are female and no reference to Islam whatsoever, or for that matter, to anything at all.
This German site claims his FB page was entirely filled with Jihadist material and Islamic ‘extremist’ lectures and images. Yet it would appear that the powers-that-be in Belgium managed to scrub it clean before the act of terror was even done.
I wonder who does more damage to the people of a democratic society. A jihadi who shoots up people at a mall during Christmas shopping season or a government that works overtime to make sure it’s own citizens are lied to about the facts in order to maintain a narrative. A narrative that may in fact spell the undoing of Western liberal democracy altogether.
Here is a google-machine-translation of a German website that seems to have something that resembles actual information on this issue.
Any German speakers who wish to properly translate this page would be deeply appreciated.
Eeyore for Vlad.
UPDATE:
A reader of Vlad was kind enough (Thank you very much Rembrandt C) to properly translate the German article on the Belgian attack.

The Discrete Charm of News Reporting
Manfred Gillner
Whenever, on the occasion of a crime report, the comment areas of the leading online-media, after a brief and seemly interval, are closed or simply not even opened, then one knows that now something has happened again which for the guardians of political correctness is very much amiss. Just so did it also happen after the terror attack in Liège. For it must be declared as such, when someone in camouflage fatigues, armed with grenades, revolver and Kalashnikov gets into a car, drives to the Liège Christmas market, climbs to the roof of a bakery and cuts down anything he can catch sight of. The gunman knew exactly what he wanted, said a female Journalist, who, as witness, experienced the entire incident. He intended to hit as many people as possible. Continue Reading →
Double Standards Under British Law
From Hudson NY
Rhea Page savagely attacked by a gang of Muslim girls.
Is it appropriate for a judge to suspend a sentence of a convicted, violent criminal – so that he can walk free instead of serving time – if the criminal is “religious”?
In early 2010 Cherie Blair Q.C., wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, suspended the sentence of Shamso Miah, who had assaulted and injured a man.
According to the police, on the day of the incident Miah, a Muslim, had left a mosque, and gone to a local bank, where he became embroiled in a disagreement with another man, Mohammed Furcan, whom he then punched in the face. Furcan chased Miah outside and demanded to know why he had been assaulted, at which point Miah punched him to the ground, breaking his jaw. Miah claimed that he had acted in self-defense, but security cameras at the bank showed this to be a lie.
“I am going to suspend this sentence for the period of two years,” Blair told Miah at sentencing, “based on the fact you are a religious person and have not been in trouble before.”
Terry Sanderson of the National Secular Society told the Daily Mail that “we strongly feel that this kind of consideration [for a felon’s religion] should not play any part in sentencing. The idea that someone who is religious gets a lighter sentence is outrageous.”
For several decades – especially over the last ten years – British authorities have placed “community cohesion” over equality before the law. Roughly translated, “community cohesion” means that cultures have a higher priority than people. If a policy – or actions — by an authority might possibly “offend” some of the louder members of a… read more.
‘Disgusting sentence sends wrong message about street violence,’ says devastated victim of race hate gang assault by Muslims freed because ‘they weren’t used to alcohol

Victim: Rhea Page, 22, feels she has become a victim again after her attackers faced court -this time of soft justice
When Rhea Page watched CCTV in court of herself being beaten unconscious by a Muslim girl gang and saw one of her attackers laughing she felt disgusted.
The 22-year-old was determined to face her attackers and see justice done after she was viciously assaulted while waiting for a taxi with her boyfriend in Leicester city centre.
But the healthcare worker was bitterly disappointed as all four girls walked free from court for the random attack, which left Rhea with a bald patch where her hair was ripped out, because they were Somalian Muslims and not used to drinking alcohol.
Far from feeling a sense of relief after her attackers’ sentencing Rhea feels like she has become a victim all over again, this time of a soft justice system which let her attackers walk free. Continue Reading →
