Disabled Purple Heart veteran, embarassed at local business.

Adventures of a broken soldier:

I am a disabled combat veteran. I served in Iraq and worked in Afghanistan. I took an IED because my country asked me too, and I was injured by a suicide bomber in Afghanistan. I have a Purple Heart and an ARCOM with Valor. I fully expect to be treated differently when I am visiting another country – when I am in America I expect equality and toleration; but what I experienced today is something that I never would have thought I’d have to go through in my own country. The country I fought for!

I am a skydiver with around 300 jumps under my belt. I’ve done jumps from 30,000 feet, helicopters, hot air balloons, wingsuit skydives and so forth. So with that being said I travel around doing this sport quite a bit. Today was my second time at a dropzone called “Florida Skydiving Center / Skydive Lake Wales”.

Coincidentally there are soldiers from the country of Qatar being trained there.

The picture is of the tattoo I have. Here is the definition of said tattoo: “Kafir (Arabic: ????? k?fir, plural ????? kuff?r) is an Arabic term used in an Islamic doctrinal sense, usually translated as “unbeliever,” “disbeliever,” or “infidel.” The term refers to a person who rejects God or who hides, denies, or covers the “truth.” The Muslim’s from Qatar saw that tattoo and complained to the dropzone. Once they did so I was called to the back office…

Political correctness, anti-white racism and galloping Marxism

It is difficult to overstate just how deleterious the policy detailed in this mornings article about deliberately ignoring merit in order to find a reason not to hire white people as lifeguards. The fact that very possibly someone will die due to the inability of the lifeguard will not deter the leftists so well entrenched now at every level of government as they will claim more would have died as they would rather drown than trust a white person to save them.

Not this this is believable but it causes enough cognitive dissonance to not get as strident a reply as it deserves.

President of North Korea, not qualified for anything, so first pick as Az lifeguard

The kind of reasoning that the people who implemented this policy use is simultaneously absurd, and yet oddly unimpeachable.’

To dispel the racist slogan 'Swims like a brick'  Arizona pools have hired actual bricks as lifeguards

To dispel the racist slogan ‘Swims like a brick’ Arizona pools have hired actual bricks as lifeguards

Many times growing up I heard the hurtful phrase, ‘Swims like a brick’, or, ‘Floats like a Brick’ (to indicate how terribly bricks swim and float) which are clearly racist memes intended to prevent bricks from achieving their rightful place as lifeguards at Arizona pools.

Yes I exaggerate for humor but I actually once saw a vegetarian silenced by accusations that she was racist because she felt that just because an organism had no central nervous system it was OK to eat them while animals are not OK to eat. Basically accusing her of being mamalio-centric so to speak. She actually had no answer to that as it was the kind of reasoning she considered to be axiomatic and self evident. She just wasn’t used to having it used against her.

Hiring Yams to save the drowning since 2013

Hiring Yams to save the drowning since 2013

And why stop there? Hiring a yam as a life guard does double duty as it looks natural in a pool, especially in inner city areas, and is a way of dispelling racism and hatred often directed with commonly heard slurs, towards the profoundly disabled.

 

Ultimately, the greatest prejudice of them all:

Hiring the metabolically challenged has been a great boon to the goth community at public pools.

Hiring the metabolically challenged has been a great boon to the goth community at public pools.

Probably the greatest single aspect of civilization Vs. totalitarian states in the history of the world, is the principle of merit over nepotism and group-ism. The great irony being that leftist groups who have now created endless systemic racism under the banner of getting rid of it. Laws such as hate speech laws, affirmative action and so on are always selectively enforced either by design or by manipulation post hoc. While the jokes above are silly examples of the humour of logical extremes, the photos below are not.

Where are the Chinese people?

No affirmative action here

Racist Chinese restaurant hires no Khalghari Bushmen

As much as it pains me to say it, the craftily worded slick PR campaign by the KKK seems to have more merit than it should.

Multiculturalism is indeed code for anti-white racism.

Valerie Singleton tells the truth about the BBC

Telegraph:

[…]

But of course it will be dismissed, because – despite appearances – the BBC doesn’t really “do” self-examination (the Balen report into its anti-Israel bias has cost half a million quid to write and then suppress). From time to time an errant director general is marched, Aztec-style, to the top of the pyramid so licence fee payers can see his heart being torn out – but these human sacrifices change nothing.

Leftist media destroys a truly decent human being for holding an opinion of the non-leftist kind.

Small consolation I suppose but at least someone bothered to actually expose this horror.

Intro by gates of Vienna:

The philosopher Henrik Gade Jensen is one of the finest debaters in Denmark. He served as a press advisor to the former Minister of Ecclesiastical Affairs in Denmark, serving one year during the Anders Fogh Rasmussen government before his career was ruined.

As is now the case with Lars Hedegaard, Gade was completely destroyed — in public — by false accusations and ‘guilt by association’ tricks designed by left-wing extremists. It has been ten years since it happened, and Gade still suffers from it. He was targeted because he was — and is — on the ‘wrong’ side of the fence: he criticized immigration policy and the EU. In 2003 he was brought down by a deliberate media smear campaign.

The video shows how this man of integrity is destroyed by false ‘Nazi’ allegations from a left wing extremist backed up by the mainstream media. After legal action, he forced the media outlets to apologize, acknowledge that they had no evidence for their slurs, and compensate him.

The video provides some kind of satisfaction for Gade Jensen. Dissidents outside Denmark in similar situations may find encouragement watching it.

PROTESTOR ARRESTED IN TORONTO FOR MOCKING ISLAM

JDL: Canada

From  – “BlogWrath” Blog

Thank you “BlogWrath” for writing about this protest, otherwise, no one will know about the threat of being arrested when we tell the TRUTH about Islam…

Canadian MUSLIMS enjoy freedom to say  “Homosexuals and lesbians should be “exterminated in this life” – Imam of Montreal, Abou Hammaad Sulaiman Dameus Al-Hayiti

=========

toronto-protest-against-islamic-misogyny-1

It was only two weeks ago when the Supreme Court of Canada declared the criticism of homosexuality to be a hate crime. It seems that in Toronto Islam is also under the same high protection. Today, at a protest somebody was arrested for mocking Islam.

As I wrote earlier, a protest event was scheduled for March 20 at the offices of the Liberal Party of Ontario. It was caused by the fact that the Minister of Labour of our ruling party, Yasir Naqvi, endorsed an Islamic book, which (in accordance with the Koran) recommended wife beating as a tool for solving family problems. Despite thepublic outrage, the Liberals chose to ignore the issue and turn a blind eye on Muslim misogyny.

toronto-protest-against-islamic-misogyny-3

The protest attracted a tiny group of participants carrying signs like:

“Beat wife only for honour & discipline, Holy Koran 4:34”

“Those that deny Islam will be killed, Holy Koran 33:16”

“Expose jihad with free speech or die”

However, what they lacked in numbers, they made up for with their creativity. Eric Brazau, who was one of the organizers, was dressed like an imam and accompanied by a woman in a full Muslim niqab.

Using a microphone, he gave a mock Muslim sermon, assisted by the veiled woman. He was “praising” Canada as a place, where you can beat your wife with impunity. Reading from sheets of paper, he also counted all the benefits you would get here if you are a religious fanatic. It was a satirical performance, which still focused the attention on the flaws of Islam.

In the beginning the people didn’t pay much attention. Then two police women stopped by and a police van for transporting people under arrest parked in the side street.

Khalid Mahmood: ‘Spy cameras should have stayed’

Typical. We enact measures that restrict our own freedoms and civil liberties for greater security due to a threat which is overwhelmingly from the Muslim community, and then we exempt the Muslims from having to endure those inconveniences. Just like airport security in Montreal where Muslims in burkas can sail through security which the rest of us have to endure annoyance and humiliation.

One of the cameras An independent report into Project Champion was highly critical of the scheme and the police

An MP has said more than 200 so-called “spy” cameras which were put up in largely Muslim areas of Birmingham should never have been removed.

Khalid Mahmood said the cameras, called Project Champion, would have been an “effective tool” in helping security services track terror suspects.

The cameras, which were removed in late-2010 after never being switched on, sparked protests from residents.

An independent report was highly critical of the scheme and the police.

Mr Mahmood’s comments came after three men from the city were convicted on Thursday of plotting a suicide bomb attack which they said would rival 9/11 or the 7 July bombings.

Public lavatories to become “gender neutral”

Yes. I agree that we should ignore the 99.995% of the public’s culture, history, feelings, sense of propriety and modus operandi in order to slightly and nearly imperceptibly make the 00.005% of the population who might want this, and then again might not, feel ever so slightly better. (% by lowballing averages of people seeking ‘gender reassignment surgeries in Europe)

Telegraph:

 A city council has scrapped male and female public lavatories in favour of “gender neutral” facilities so as not to alienate the transgender community.

A public lavatory block is to become “gender neutral”

5:31PM GMT 17 Feb 2013

The move was described as “political correctness gone barmy” by opponents who warned that the vast majority would prefer to use single sex loos.

Brighton and Hove City Council disclosed in emails that it wished to promote the term “gender neutral” and build facilities which are open to all, regardless if sex.

They believe such facilities will be more accessible for those who do not identify with the male-female binery.

Lars Hedegaard and the Enemies of Truthfulness

Andrew Bostom:

Last week I noted how Michael Coren of Canada’s Sun TV was far bolder than any of his US television network colleagues in dealing with Islam’s threat to Western free speech, epitomized by Coren’s interview of Danish journalist and historian Lars Hedegaard, who survived an assassination attempt by a likely Muslim assailant, still at large. No such interview with public airing on television was conducted by any major US television network-ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News, CNN-not even the self-proclaimed “alternative” to “stultifying political correctness,”  and “champion” of free speech, The Blaze TV.

Emphasizing, yet again, the ongoing, complete dereliction of duty of not only the mainstream legacy media, but so-called conservative outlets such as Fox News and The Blaze, Michael Coren opened his follow-up interview  of Lars Hedegaard, yesterday (2/15/13), with this observation:

The deafening silence of the Left over the ‘Muslim Patrol’

The Commentator

The aftermath of the recent ‘Muslim Patrol’ saga served as another reminder of the British Left’s cherry-picking approach to morality

by Saleem Khan on 25 January 2013 18:10

There aren’t many times in politics when people of different stripes can unite over an issue, but I’m heartened to see that the Left have joined the chorus of condemnation over the disgusting behavior of the thuggish ‘Muslim Patrol’ gang.

Sorry, hold on. That’s in a parallel universe. Here in our universe, no such thing has happened. As with every other instance of Islamist fanaticism, the Left remains silent. Case in point: I emailed several groups, including Unite Against Fascism (UAF), The Respect Party (RP), and The Socialist Workers Party (SWP), asking for their comments on the incidents. Want to guess how many replied to me?

Zero.

Bear in mind my emails were polite, concise and formal; I don’t go in for name calling and playground-level discourse. Of course, that’s what they would prefer. Had I written a long, ranty email full of insults, they would have responded like a shot. Take that ammunition away from them by asking a simple, sober question, and they can’t respond. As an aside, I also emailed George Galloway asking for his reaction; equally polite. Not that I expected a reply from him either.

Kevin Carroll arrested on suspicion of race hate crime

It would be interesting to find even one biologist on planet earth who can explain how Islam is a race, yet you can convert in (and at the risk of your life) out of it. Just one. And that should be enough of a defence anywhere in the world where reason and empiricism still hold sway.

As they do not, Mr. Carroll may be in trouble.

The joint leader of the English Defence League has been arrested on suspicion of a race hate crime.

Kevin Carroll, the cousin of the recently jailed Stephen Lennon – who founded the EDL – was apprehended on Saturday morning by police officers investigating a message he posted on Facebook that alledgedly incited racial hatred.

Mr Carroll is the joint leader of the British Freedom Party and he recently stood unsuccessfully for election as Bedfordshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner last November.

A spokesman for Bedfordshire Police said: “A 43 year old was arrested on Saturday morning on suspicion of ‘Display threatening abusive/insulting written material with intent/likely to stir up racial hatred’.”

Syria Kills 885 Palestinian Arabs that Palestinian Authority, Hamas and Jordan Refuse to Take In

Front Page Mag:

January 13, 2013 By 9 Comments

During Israel’s recent Pillar of Defense, Palestinian Arab combatant and non-combatant casualties totaled about 150. Naturally we had to read 40,000 more articles about Gaza being an open-air concentration camp with luxury hotels, mansions and the iPhone 5.

Meanwhile both sides in the Syrian civil war have racked up a score of 885 Palestinian Arabs dead and the world hasn’t paid any attention.

Everyone who claims to care about Palestinian Arabs immediately sprang into action. Including Palestinian leaders.

Hamas told the UNRWA that they will not accept Palestinian Arab refugees from Syria because it will undermine their political case against Israel.

President Abbas of the Palestinian Authority agreed, saying, “It’s better they die in Syria than give up their right of return.”

CAIR: Media Urged to Drop Term ‘Islamist’ in New Year

Herald Online:

By Council on American-Islamic Relations

ISLAM-OPED: Media Urged to Drop Term ‘Islamist’ in New Year

By: Ibrahim Hooper

[Ibrahim Hooper is national communications director for the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil liberties organization. He may be contacted at: ih*****@**ir.com  A photo of Ibrahim Hooper is available at: http://tinyurl.com/hooperphoto ]

As many people make promises to themselves to improve their lives or their societies in the coming year, here is a suggested New Year’s resolution for media outlets in America and worldwide: Drop the term “Islamist.”

The Associated Press (AP) added the term to its influential Stylebook in 2012. That entry reads: “Islamist — Supporter of government in accord with the laws of Islam. Those who view the Quran as a political model encompass a wide range of Muslims, from mainstream politicians to militants known as jihadi.”

The AP says it sought input from Arabic-speaking experts and hoped to provide a neutral perspective by emphasizing the “wide range” of religious views encompassed in the term.
