Felonies are Free

So now undocumented felons are the new universal right.

deportation170209_atm_phoenix_protest_16x9_992

The forces of no borders at all are out in full force in Phoenix , demanding that anyone who commits a crime needs to be allowed to stay in the US, unpunished.

So we go from people do needed jobs to compassion to we must accept victims and now allow no punishment when new crimes are committed.

Apparently the conviction was done in 2013, but Obama’s minions decided to let her stay.

Can we at least get a list of the allowed felonies that these people can commit with impunity? Is that too much to … Continue reading

Life In The 21st

The Red Headed Irish Wisecracker sighed again as she perused her 6Plus.

“Jill is an idiot” she intoned, , exasperation filling the room.

I knew what it was. Facebook. Old High School friends now in the grip of the Zombie Plague of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

“She was an idiot in High School. Did you expect her to change?” I bantered , hoping the moment had passed.

I got the look. The “Let me rant and shut up until I am done” look.

I rolled my eyes and proceeded to watch Tucker skewer another guest with his nuclear giggle while I glanced at Instapundit on the Surface Pro in my lap.

I decided to intervene. “Alexa…Play Jeopardy”

The insidious and sonorous voice from the Bezos hockey puck like object … Continue reading

A Few Questions on Visas

I was thinking about the immigration impasse with the court. We have 97 mostly tech companies that are suing for the right to allow anyone in they claim they need. We have an activist judge and a lunatic appeals court who believe God falls under their jurisdiction.

We have a tied SCOTUS and a nomination to get through.

If you are blocked one way, try another. Anyone here have the answers to the questions below?

Can all H1B visa suddenly get slow walked for those 97 companies?

Can individual visas be called in for a security review?

Can green card holders be called in for a security review?

Can new refugee visas just stop being issued?

Can a person who is granted a Visa or green card be … Continue reading

They All Look The Same

Sometimes I worry about things.

The average American person responds to images, sometimes in a powerful way.

After 911 they all saw images like this. They do not run the ones with the people falling anymore.

Over the years they have been treated to imagery from various terror attacks, all with a terrible sameness.

 

Now we have the Black Lives Matter anti police riots.

Ink Stained Wretches in the 21st

The night Castro died I was at my daughter’s house for the weekend. With three granddaughters from age 3 to 7 and 5000 square feet if gets loud and  fun when the grandparents come for the weekend.

After the kids are watching Frozen for the (insert improbable large number  here) time, the adults usually do what happens in a quiet moment these days and check their phones.

My daughter informs me that Castro has died. I look for a web site that has the story and find none. I ask her to check her sources and she tells me it is all over Twitter. None of my three newsfeeds has it, neither does CNN, Fox, ABC, or AP.

She shows me her twitter feed. I had flirted with … Continue reading

Can We Fix the Federal Judicial System?

There has been a long-standing problem, in my opinion, within our federal judicial system in that, somehow, even though I suspect almost all judges have completed law school, passed a bar exam, and practiced law, legal decisions track politics very closely. In other words, there are left-leaning judges who go with the Left and there are right-leaning judges who go with the Right. And it has gotten to be a fairly reliable pattern. I happen to be an originalist, at least in my own sense of the word, I like the original intent approach to interpreting the Constitution. Scalia was my type of SC Justice and Thomas is even better. The Left likes to change that meaning without going through an amendment process. So how come federal judges … Continue reading

Killers Among Us

?Can someone please explain all the huffing and puffing that’s come up over Trump’s comment that we’re killers too.

?Is it just that modern society has so isolated itself from killing that it no longer recognizes its need and utility.

I am hardly a fan of Putin. It isn’t that he’s a killer; it’s that he’s a thug, a gangster. Stealing that Super Bowl ring is a great example of that. But one should not ever doubt that we have killers among us and that they are necessary for the life of the society.
