Media Ignore 224 Teenagers Killed in Chicago Since Michael Brown’s Death

Media Ignore 224 Teenagers Killed in Chicago Since Michael Brown’s Death Since August, Al Sharpton and MSNBC, CNN, the big three networks, and all the righteous protesters and Anonymous hacktivists have been using the death of Michael Brown as a basis to claim that our society is prejudiced against black teens. But since then 244 teens have been killed in Chicago, most of them black males, and not a word has been said about this death toll. In a city only a few hours away from the St. Louis suburb where protesters have hoisted Michael Brown onto a pedestal, records… View Article

Firms have $3,000 incentive for hiring illegals under Obama amnesty

Firms have $3,000 incentive for hiring illegals under Obama amnesty Uses Obamacare fee to advance amnesty plan Under the president’s new amnesty, businesses will have a $3,000-per-employee incentive to hire illegal immigrants over native-born workers because of a quirk of Obamacare. President Obama’s temporary amnesty, which lasts three years, declares up to 5 million illegal immigrants to be lawfully in the country and eligible for work permits, but it still deems them ineligible for public benefits such as buying insurance on Obamacare’s health exchanges. But under the Affordable Care Act, that means businesses who hire them won’t have to pay… View Article

Defeat of USA FREEDOM Act is a Victory for Freedom

Defeat of USA FREEDOM Act is a Victory for Freedom It will not shock readers to hear that quite often legislation on Capitol Hill is not as advertised. When Congress wants to do something particularly objectionable, they tend give it a fine-sounding name. The PATRIOT Act is perhaps the best-known example. The legislation had been drafted well before 9/11 but was going nowhere. Then the 9/11 attacks gave it a new lease on life. Politicians exploited the surge in patriotism following the attack to reintroduce the bill and call it the PATRIOT Act. To oppose it at that time was,… View Article

Gun Control Advocates Demand Toy Gun Ban After Cleveland Cops Kill Kid Gun control advocates are demanding a toy gun ban after Cleveland, Ohio, police killed a child who was carrying an airsoft pistol on a playground. While many are asking why the police didn’t act with more caution on Saturday when dealing with the boy, 12-year-old Tamir Rice, others are instead calling for a ban on toy guns. “Why are these toy guns produced?” Alexander A. tweeted. “We need laws that prohibit that type of ‘toy.’” He also said that toy guns were “part of the problem.” A commenter… View Article

A billion reasons to leave CBC behind

A billion reasons to leave CBC behind How disappointing would it be to give money to someone only to learn the recipient didn’t appreciate it? How much worse would it be to be forced through taxes to fund someone who not only didn’t appreciate it but thought he deserved more, while thinking himself better than you? Linden MacIntyre is leaving the CBC and on the way out the door, among many good and interesting points, he revealed just such an attitude in a speech as part of the Vic One guest lecture series at the University of Toronto on Nov….

Politicians lie because there is no incentive to tell the truth

Andrew Coyne: Politicians lie because there is no incentive to tell the truth Stop me if you’ve heard this one. A party, let’s call them the Quebec Liberals, campaigns on a promise, say, to freeze the price of subsidized daycare, adjusting only for inflation. It attacks its opponents, call them the Parti Québécois, who had proposed raising it from $7 a day to $9, as heartless and out of touch. Sure enough it is elected, only to propose scant months later — surprise! — an increase in day-care rates, to as much as $20 a day for the wealthy, with… View Article

17 B.C. First Nations have not complied with financial transparency act

17 B.C. First Nations have not complied with financial transparency act Those not meeting Wednesday deadline could face court order, fines Aboriginal Affairs Minister Bernard Valcourt delivered a final warning to Canadian First Nations leaders Monday, including 17 in B.C., telling them to comply by Wednesday with government legislation requiring disclosure of their pay and band financial statements. The 2013 law has already led to the election defeat earlier this month of a family that had ruled a tiny B.C. interior band for more than 30 years while paying themselves salaries that were higher on an after-tax basis than Canada’s… View Article
