“I’m a middle-aged gentleman of the deep American south. We are taught to show every courtesy to women not because they are silly and helpless, but because they are worthy of infinite respect and honor. A man who would not seek to shield a woman from the rain, if he had an umbrella, would be despised here. If these bitter feminists think they elevate themselves by hopping off the pedestal on which real men have placed them, they are fools indeed.”

S.E. CUPP VS. MICHAEL MOORE ON GUNS: ‘I JUST HAPPEN TO BE INFORMED’

S.E. CUPP VS. MICHAEL MOORE ON GUNS: ‘I JUST HAPPEN TO BE INFORMED’:

TheBlaze’s S.E. Cupp battled liberal filmmaker Michael Moore on the gun issue Friday, arguing against gun restrictions and schooling him on basic statistics on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

Cupp, contending with boos from the “Real Time” audience, said the problem with a gun registry is that “it treats law-abiding citizens as if they are guilty until proven innocent.”

She went on, “The problem with background checks, five-day waiting periods, they assume that I have criminal intent to use my gun to pursue my Second Amendment rights…I go to get a background check, ‘Prove to me you’re not a criminal.’ I go to get a gun, ‘Prove to me you don’t want to use it in the heat of passion right now, wait five days, you need to cool off.’ That’s not fair — the government is not in the business of intimidating me away from my Second Amendment rights. It’s an abuse of power, and it seeps into the culture — it’s why newspapers think they can publish gun owners’ addresses, as if they are pariahs. It’s not appropriate.”

Moore countered, “You have a dangerous device that can kill 20 schoolchildren, I want to know where that device is. You can have it — ”

“You do not have that right,” Cupp said.

Moore then said he wanted the Second Amendment altered to spell out the Founding Fathers’ intention: that it covers muskets.

Maher pointed out that he is a gun owner himself and would never give his guns up. He said he goes to the shooting range a few times a year, which Moore said wasn’t enough — he wouldn’t be effective against an intruder if he were just coming out of a deep sleep.

“As opposed to what, just getting mowed down?” Maher asked.

The conversation shifted to crime statistics, with Maher raising the question: Why have gun homicides gone down in an age of less gun control?

Moore made the point that all crime has gone down, and Cupp said mass shootings are also down — causing Moore to throw up his hands in laughter.

“Less school shootings since Columbine, let me ponder that for a second,” he said sarcastically.

“There have been fewer mass shootings over the past 30 years, that’s just a fact,” Cupp said. “It’s an inconvenient truth I know, but it’s a fact.”

Moore referenced “the bubble” that gun owners live in.

“There’s no bubble. I am a gun owner, I have lived and breathed this issue personally for a decade,” Cupp shot back. “It’s not a bubble, I just happen to be informed on gun issues, unlike those people who talk about them.”

Get him girl! Facts and rational thought win the day again.

HOFSTRA STUDENT WAS SHOT, KILLED BY COP TRYING TO RESCUE HER

HOFSTRA STUDENT WAS SHOT, KILLED BY COP TRYING TO RESCUE HER:

MINEOLA, N.Y. (TheBlaze/AP) — Authorities say a police officer’s bullet killed a New York college student during the response to a home invasion at an off-campus home.

Nassau County homicide squad Lt. John Azzata said Saturday night that Andrea Rebello was killed by a police officer as she was being held in a headlock by a masked intruder.

Azzata says the police officer opened fire as Dalton Smith made a motion to fire at the officer early Friday morning.

Azzata says the officer fired eight shots, hitting Smith seven times and Rebello once in the head, killing her.

Earlier Saturday, police said Smith had an extensive criminal history dating back nearly 15 years and was wanted on a parole violation related to a first-degree robbery conviction.

Dalton Smith of Hempstead, N.Y. On Saturday, May 18, 2013, police identified Smith the alleged home invader involved in the fatal slaying of a New York college student early Friday morning. Police say that Smith, who was currently on parole for robbery in the first degree, was the person attempting to rob the off-campus home where Andrea Rebello was shot and killed. (Credit: AP)

Smith was identified using fingerprints just hours after funeral arrangement were made for Rebello, 21, a popular public relations major who was with her twin sister Jessica and several other students in an off-campus house at the time of the break-in. The other students were unharmed.

Smith, of Hempstead, Long Island, had been arrested for robbery in the first degree in 1999, promoting prison contraband in the second degree in 2000, robbery in the first degree in 2003, assault in the second degree in 2003 and robbery in the second degree in 2003, police said.

Azzata said in a statement that a warrant was issued for Smith on April 25 for absconding from parole.

The campus has been shaken by the incident.

“Today is the last day of finals and this should be a happy day on campus; but it’s not,” said Hofstra freshman Scott Aharoni of Great Neck, as he passed through the area rife with yellow crime-scene tape Friday. “It’s really sad.”

Wow, I feel terrible for the family of the victim and for the officer who’s round went astray. Damn.

WILD VIDEO: MUGGER HIT BY BUS MOMENTS AFTER SNATCHING PURSE…AND VICTIM RUNS TO HELP!

WILD VIDEO: MUGGER HIT BY BUS MOMENTS AFTER SNATCHING PURSE…AND VICTIM RUNS TO HELP!:

A CCTV camera in Colombia captured a brazen midday mugging at a Bogota bus station, the U.K. Telegraph reports, but that’s only one aspect of a pretty shocking video.

After the apparent thief struggles with a female traveler for her phone, he makes a run for it and promptly gets hit by a bus.

In yet another startling twist, video shows the woman who had been robbed just minutes prior going to help the beleaguered alleged criminal.

The identities of the individuals have not been released, but it was reported that the man received medical treatment and was promptly arrested.

Serendipity! lol

freeplanetickettonorthkorea:

maybe you could actually teach about the female, Native American, and black founders of this country? Such as Prince Whipple. If you look at either paintings of Washington crossing the Delaware or the Marquis de Lafayette you will see him there. Possible to even say he alone was the man who won the revolutionary war. He fought alongside Washington in the revolution. And was a double agent for the revolutionaries, in order to give bad intel to the British, and give the good intel to Washington

Whipple was a badass back before asses were bad. lol

HAHAHA well that could be interesting… i could live (lol) with that.

Just thought id toss my 2cents in. I always though getting shot and killed 1 bullet, no mess,no bleeding out just quick and painless. Sounds kinda dark but to me that would be a good way to go. That or drowning, scientist say that's very peaceful js.

droffats-hsoj — Sat, 18 May 2013 10:24:00 -0500

That’s one way to go. Idk, I don’t mind a violent end as long as it has a meaning. For something bigger than me. I just REALLY don’t want to get old and end up in a retirement home like my mother works in. No no no nooooo.

Surprise! CBO estimates Obama's budget would add $5.2 Trillion to the deficit!

droffats-hsoj — Sat, 18 May 2013 10:20:11 -0500

poorrichardsnews:

Anytime you hear some stooge of this administration claim that President Obama has “reduced the deficit,” know that it’s utter poppycock. The CBO estimates that if President Obama’s budget passed and became law, it would add $5.2 Trillion to the deficit.

from the Hill:

The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office on Friday said President Obama’s 2014 budget proposal would add $5.2 trillion in deficits over 10 years.

The agency said that compared to its baseline scenario, the Obama budget would reduce projected deficits by $1.1 trillion over 10 years. The White House had claimed $1.8 trillion in savings using its own analysis.

The CBO’s baseline assumes that automatic sequestration cuts remain in place for nine years, whereas the White House assumes they are eliminated.

While it uses a different budget baseline than the White House, the analysis of individual proposals are broadly consistent with what Obama officials projected. The CBO reports $3 billion more in spending than the White House claimed and $79 billion more in revenue over 10 years.

The office said the Obama blueprint would increase the deficit this year by $27 billion, to $669 billion, and by $115 billion in 2014, to a total of $615 billion.

read the rest

And all of that assumed that sequestration stays in place! Can you imagine?

Once again, let me remind you of the source here. It’s the supposedly-non-partisan Congressional Budget Office, the liberal’s gold standard for accounting. You see what they did with Obamacare, right? They were 100% off, and now Obamacare is going to cost twice what they first estimated!

If that precedent were to hold, you shouldn’t be surprised if Obama’s budget adds $10 Trillion to the deficit.

This is not a surprise… sadly.
