| False-leftists absolutely LOVE the idea of tolerance! Why would | |
| you tolerate evil if you're supposedly not an evil person? | |

| Putin: Insulting Prophet Muhammad is not freedom of expression | |
| [quote] Russian President Vladimir Putin has said insulting | |
| Prophet Muhammad does not count as freedom of expression. | |
| Insults to the prophet are a "violation of religious freedom and | |
| the violation of the sacred feelings of people who profess | |
| Islam,", Putin said on Thursday during his annual news | |
| conference, Russian News Agency TASS reported. [/quote] | |

| Other than the fact that �religious freedom� is yet another | |
| value championed by the West (nobody should have to �tolerate� | |
| or even accept religions that conflict with one�s own morals), | |
| what are your thoughts on this article? | |

| Anyone should be allowed to insult anyone else. Anyone who feels | |
| insulted should also be allowed to challenge the insulter to a | |
| duel to the death. If the insulter declines the duel, the | |
| insulter must publicly cut off their own tongue (if the insult | |
| were spoken) or fingers (if the insult were written) or other | |
| body part as appropriate, with no anaesthetic. | |

| [quote]Right now, elected sheriffs openly promote resistance to | |
| federal authority. Right now, militias train and arm themselves | |
| in preparation for the fall of the Republic. Right now, | |
| doctrines of a radical, unachievable, messianic freedom spread | |
| across the internet, on talk radio, on cable television, in the | |
| malls. | |
| ... | |
| �If only more moderate Republicans were in office, if only | |
| bipartisanship could be restored to what it was.� Such hopes are | |
| not only reckless but irresponsible. | |
| ... | |
| Two things are happening at the same time. Most of the American | |
| right have abandoned faith in government as such. Their politics | |
| is, increasingly, the politics of the gun. | |
| ... | |
| The right is preparing for a breakdown of law and order, but | |
| they are also overtaking the forces of law and order. Hard right | |
| organization have now infiltrated so many police forces � the | |
| connections number in the hundreds � that they have become | |
| unreliable allies in the struggle against domestic terrorism. | |
| Michael German, a former FBI agent who worked undercover against | |
| domestic terrorists during the 1990s, knows that the white power | |
| sympathies within police departments hamper domestic terrorism | |
| cases. �The 2015 FBI counter-terrorism guide instructs FBI | |
| agents, on white supremacist cases, to not put them on the | |
| terrorist watch list as agents normally would do,� he says. | |
| �Because the police could then look at the watchlist and | |
| determine that they are their friends.� The watchlists are among | |
| the most effective techniques of counter-terrorism, but the FBI | |
| cannot use them. The white supremacists in the United States are | |
| not a marginal force; they are inside its institutions. | |
| Recent calls to reform or to defund the police have focused on | |
| officers� implicit bias or policing techniques. The protesters | |
| are, in a sense, too hopeful. Activist white supremacists in | |
| positions of authority are the real threat to American order and | |
| security. | |
| ... | |
| Just consider: in 2019, 36% of active duty soldiers claimed to | |
| have witnessed �white supremacist and racist ideologies in the | |
| military�, according to the Military Times. | |
| ... | |
| What the American left needs now is allegiance, not allyship. It | |
| must abandon any imagined fantasies about the sanctity of | |
| governmental institutions that long ago gave up any claim to | |
| legitimacy. Stack the supreme court, end the filibuster, make | |
| Washington DC a state, and let the dogs howl, and now, before it | |
| is too late. | |
| ... | |
| The right has recognized what the left has not: that the system | |
| is in collapse. The right has a plan: it involves violence and | |
| solidarity. | |
| ... | |
| There will be those who say that warnings of a new civil war is | |
| alarmist. All I can say is that reality has outpaced even the | |
| most alarmist predictions.[/quote] | |
| As I always say, the only thing that can stop initiated violence | |
| is retaliatory violence. And the latter must be far more | |
| ruthless than the former. | |

| Biden signs bill making lynching a federal hate crime | |
| [quote]President Biden signed a bill that makes lynching a | |
| federal hate crime for the first time in American history. | |
| Congress finally passed the bill after it failed more than 200 | |
| times. Watch Mr. Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and | |
| Michelle Duster, the great-granddaughter of journalist Ida B. | |
| Wells, give remarks at the Rose Garden after the bill | |
| signing.[/quote] | |

| [quote]'Can we just go set Marsha Blackburn on fire:' Nashville | |
| school board member caught on hot mic | |
| ... | |
| A Nashville school board member is under scrutiny for | |
| provocative comments after a hot-mic moment at a meeting last | |
| week. | |
| During a break in a March 22 meeting, board member Sharon Gentry | |
| was heard criticizing U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn � the | |
| district's own senator � over her questioning of U.S. Supreme | |
| Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. | |
| "Can we just go set Marsha Blackburn on fire?" Gentry said as | |
| other board members praised Jackson. | |
| ... | |
| Other members of the heavily Democratic Nashville board didn't | |
| appear to question Gentry's comments and the board meeting | |
| quickly resumed.[/quote] | |
| Blackburn (even her name suggests she should be set on fire!) | |
