Quote Of The Month

Farenheit211 on Israel's blocking of the two Democrat politicians:

"Keeping people like Omar and Talib at arms length is something that any civilised and sensible country should do.

Ilhan Omar in particular is a person to whom scandal and hatred seem to stick to her like shit to a blanket. She’s made numerous statements that have been perceived to be anti-Jew, was voted in by a Minnesota Islamic community that holds views about Jews that would not be out of place in 1930’s Germany and has consistently demonised and delegitimised the state of Israel. Ilhan Omar is about as welcome in Congress as a pork chop at a Bar-mitzvah and unlike Rep Occasio-Cortez, is not just stupid but also malicious.

Talib is just the run of the mill Islamic hate-fountain but the sort of scandals that are sticking to Omar are ones that can no longer be written off as propaganda against her. She has not properly addressed any of the gossip about her such as campaign finance violations and marrying her brother in order to get him entry to the USA. She has spoken at conferences organised by groups closely associated with the Muslim Brotherhood and has become a poster-girl for American Islamists and a deranged far Left that will support anyone and anything that they see as anti-American."

Post Of The Month

Al Jahom points out some home truths.

Breaking A (Pinned) Butterfly On A Wheel...

She said: ‘The police said they received information from someone about the wolf online and checked if I had a certificate to own a stuffed wolf, and obviously I don’t.

‘It’s ridiculous that’s how they got a warrant. It was just a toy.

‘The whole thing has done me a lot of harm. How the police handled it was appalling and I was devastated by it. I thought they were going to send me to jail and I was absolutely terrified. My husband said “there’s a film crew outside” and we could not believe it.

‘I realise I have done something wrong but that was not justified. It was heavy-handed to have the BBC turn up.’

Yeah, Cliff Richard's court win clearly made no impact on our brave boys in blue whatsoever, did it? I guess they figure 'it's only taxpayer money'...

‘We live in a small village and it was turned into a circus. I was made out to be a major criminal.’

If you were a major criminal, they'd probably never have bothered you. But low-hanging middle class respectable fruit, who won't get aggressive or violent? They are in there like gangbusters!

Seven officers from North Wales Police’s rural crime team and a TV crew of three arrived at Mrs Tate’s home in Newborough, on Anglesey, on February 5.

Ah. Them again. Clearly, Mrs Tate wasn't 'vulnerable' enough to get away with it.

I have a theory about these 'specialist units'. And that's that they are often staffed by fanatics. People with no sense of proportion and an unshakeable belief that whatever they are doing, no matter how unreasonable it may seem, is righteous.

In short, the worst people for the job.

Councils: "We're So Strapped For Cash!"

Kids in seaside towns are being given lessons how to...

Avoid county lines drug gangs?

...avoid being 'mugged' by gulls as attacks soar.

*blinks*

They are shown cardboard cut outs of the birds and told about the dangers of eating in front of the gulls - and warned never to feed them.

By whom? The RSPCA?

Council staff in Scarborough and Whitby, North Yorkshire, are being sent into schools in a bid to 'improve the relationship between humans and gulls'.

FFS!

Jonathan Bramley, the council's environment and regulation manager, has been visiting schools in Whitby and Scarborough with videos and cardboard cut-outs of seagulls. 'We're reinforcing the message not to feed the gulls,' he said.

Because they are becoming dependant on handouts and aggressive begging is scaring the public?

Great! Time you shut down foodbanks too....

Local resident and best selling author GP Taylor warned that the local gull plague was getting worse.

He said: 'The birds are protected and there are strict rules governing the removal of nests if they have eggs in them.

'It is about time those in authority started putting people before seagulls. There are growing problem with these birds in Whitby.'

Oh?

'I have witnessed two people attacked on the street in the town and workman at my house had his sandwiches stolen by a mob of gulls.'

Oh noes! Isaiah Ntimane feels your pain, GP...

PETA:"We Kill The Most Animals In Need Of Help!"

RSPCA:"Hold our beer..."

Crews were called after the animal was found trapped in an old water tank on Tuesday.

After pulling him out of the cold water firefighters bypassed advice to have the animal put down and instead performed CPR and used animal oxygen masks to bring him back to life.

Good for them! Useful practice.

Lorraine March from Kent Wildlife Rescue Service was at the scene, in Chatham, Kent.

"The work the firefighters did was amazing, they spent 40 minutes working on it.

"They called the RSPCA who said they were available but suggested the crew took it to the nearest vet to have it put down."

Should have told them you had a camera crew in tow, they'd have been out so fast it'd make your head spin.

"But Main Street's still all cracked and broken...."

"Sorry, Mom, the mob has spoken!"

A coach driver for an Erith-based firm has been sacked after filming a video criticising a cop days after an officer was killed in the line of duty.

Because apparently - what, you didn't get the memo? - they are uncriticisable now.

The driver films a police van parked on zig zag lines and suggests if any other car was parked in the same place, they would be disciplined.

Quite! Nothing at all wrong with that.

A statement said: "His views are not condoned or shared in any way by anyone else in our organisation.

"Abbey Travel have always supported and shown the upmost [sic] respect for all our emergency services and we have now removed this driver from our database with immediate effect."

Well, then Abbey Travel is clearly staffed by morons. Who are illiterate (unless the 'journalist' reporting this made that error).

And should be careful, because one day, they may well be on the other end of a Twitter mob. Don't expect much sympathy then.

Danny Hackett, independent councillor for Thamesmead East, praised the company for taking action against the driver.

He told News Shopper: "I am delighted that Abbey Travel have taken swift and decisive action following a video posted by one of their self employed drivers on Facebook. "The person who posted the video clearly has little or no respect for our emergency workers who deserve our undying gratitude and respect at all times."

Do they? At all times? Even when they are doing things they shouldn't be doing?

You're In No Position To Criticise...

A youth-focused trio will lobby the government with knife crime solutions written on chicken boxes that had been distributed by the Home Office.

...Hayel Wartemberg, Ndubuisi Uchea and Shiva Tarbhaker took to the streets of London and gathered responses from members of the public, including practical solutions to knife crime.

Oooh, this'll be good! *gets popcorn*

Uchea said: “It was really beautiful to see people coming up with ideas and then other people coming over and reading those ideas.”

And then laughing their socks off...

Uchea said: “A lot of the time, the policymakers are so far removed from those people living the reality.”

Let's see some of your 'reality' then?

“An interest-free business loan would help turn someone who is running a business as a drug dealer, which does take some business sense, into something with a better purpose.”

Amazing! It boils down to 'Bribe us with taxpayer money not to be criminals'..! Who'd ever have guessed?

" I taw a puddy tat as plain as he could be!"

Sally Williams and her son, Steve, were walking their dog in the grounds of St Peter’s C of E Church, in Powick, when they saw the large, black animal.

Ah. I forgot about Silly Season.

Mr Williams, from Bransford, said: “I noticed it run across the churchyard, and I thought it was a fox.

"I even said, ‘oh there’s a fox.’

A black fox? They are pretty rare! Rarer than the 'British Big Cat', even...

“Then it stopped, and I saw it was some sort of big cat.

"I would say it was about medium dog sized, like a spaniel.

“After I realised it wasn’t a fox, I started videoing.”

He added: “I was a little unnerved by it, and just a bit shocked.

“My mum was a bit scared.”

Of a cat the size of a spaniel?

“It does look like it has a collar on, so if it is something like a puma it could have escaped or been let loose from someone who owned it.”

Or...it could be a cat?

“I looked up puma and it fits the description.”

I'd like to know where you looked it up, then, as pumas are never black.
