Democracy is doomed globally but that’s an issue for another day. Today I’m only concerned with waking my fellow mere citizens in the Great White North from their slumber. “I’m from the Government and I’m here to help.” Those nine words doom Canadians because whenever government decides to "help us" the loss of individual freedom and prosperity is never far … [Read more...]
Yarmouth Man Faces Criminal Charges for Attempting to Save Child
It's a classic case of doing the wrong thing for the right reasons. On September 19 at 10:40 a.m., Nova Scotia RCMP report, a 19-year-old Yarmouth man saw another man place a small female child into the trunk of his car and walk away. This young man was horrified, and rightfully so. Can you even imagine the level of depravity it takes to lock a small child in the trunk … [Read more...]
Maryam Monsef: Minister of Women Slashes Funding to Women’s Shelters
Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government keeps telling us how woke they are, how important women’s rights are, yet Maryam Monsef, Trudeau’s Minister of Women and Gender Equality, just slashed funding to programs designed to help abused women trapped in the world of human trafficking. Megan Walker, executive director of the London Abused Women’s Centre (LAWC), said her … [Read more...]
St. Louis Cop Nathaniel Hendren’s Penchant for Russian Roulette Kills Fellow Cop Katlyn Alix

St. Louis Police Department officers Nathaniel Hendren and Katlyn Alix played a game of Russian Roulette at Hendren’s home. Katlyn Alix lost.

Firearm Licence Revocation Lies from Justin Trudeau
On February 5, 2020, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stood in the House of Commons and lied to Canadians. Mr. Speaker, the police currently have the ability to remove firearms from someone who presents a threat to themselves or others, but they cannot suspend the licence and prevent that person from acquiring new firearms. That is what the red-flag law is all about. At the very … [Read more...]
School Shooter Alert: Margo Gaines, a 6-year-old with Downs Syndrome
We’re still stuck in a paradigm tyrannized by what I call “Bureaucrat’s Rule Number One.” The Rules Are More Important Than People They have it backwards... completely backwards. People are far more important than the best rules or policy statements. Is there a line where common sense finally kicks in? I hope so, but we haven’t found it yet. Today’s case in … [Read more...]
Ego, Jati Sidhu and Bill C-402
Liberal MP Jati Sidhu's idea of "working hard for you" is to change the name of our electoral district without ever consulting the "mere citizens" whose interests he is supposed to represent. He did this out of ego, out of his own insecure need to be called "the MP for Abbotsford." I wrote a letter to the editor and sent it to every newspaper in the Mission—Matsqui—Fraser … [Read more...]
Baby Unicorn Asks Trudeau
Justin Trudeau & Catherine McKenna Baby Unicorn wants to know... If the point of your Carbon Tax is make corporations pay, why did you exempt Canada’s largest carbon emitters? #CarbonTax #CarbonTaxScam #cdnpoli … [Read more...]
Actions have Consequences so Don’t Shoot at Cops
On October 12, 2017, Flagstaff, Arizona, resident Sean D Brady made a very poor decision. He pulled a gun and shot at police. That decision cost him his life. Sean D Brady should win a Darwin award for his stupidity. The confrontation started about 9:45 PM in a Walmart parking lot. Brady sat in his truck, loud music blaring from his stereo. Walmart allows people to … [Read more...]
BC Creates No Shooting Zones Thanks to Ignorant Shooters
When supposed law-abiding firearm enthusiasts refuse to police themselves, we can't be surprised when government steps in to do it for us. Worse, we have nobody to blame but ourselves. It's bad when governments crap all over gun owners for the crimes of drug dealers and criminal gangs. It's entirely another then for them to shut down recreational shooting areas because of … [Read more...]
Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen Opens her Mouth and Removes All Doubt She’s a Fool
The old saying goes something like this… It’s better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. New Hampshire Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen ought to have listened to that pearl of wisdom before going on the live radio show Mitchell in the Morning recently. This is the drivel she spouted off in one short rant. “The fact is, the … [Read more...]
Andrew Winchester: The Epitome of Stupid People with Guns
Andrew Winchester is a stupid person. I call Andrew Winchester a stupid person because only an idiot would believe handing over 47 handguns, all legally purchased and registered to him, to an unlicensed individual wouldn't have severe consequences. You would think being paid $900 per purchase over and above the cost of the guns and ammunition just might be a clue something … [Read more...]
Profound Stupidity Has Consequences (Imagine That!)
Human beings are amazing creatures. We’re creative, astounding beings most of the time. However, there are times when the Gene Pool needs cleaning and in those moments our genetic code’s self-correcting mechanism is extremely powerful. Take, for example, the case of an unnamed Michigan man who decided to teach his girlfriend all about firearm safety. He told her all three … [Read more...]
William Rood: Firearm Safety Must Come First
If you're going to stick a gun in your pants you better know how to remove it safely! That's a lesson William Rood of Elizabethton, Tennessee, won't soon forget, I'm sure. William carried a .25 calibre Beretta pistol (prohibited in Canada, of course) in his front pants pocket. As he got undressed on the evening of January 12, 2014, he failed to deal with his handgun … [Read more...]
MLA Mike Allen – A Politician Resigning in Disgrace? Not Quite.

Mike Allen, the member of the legislature for Fort McMurray-Wood Buffalo, was arrested by St. Paul police Monday night. Allen, 51, was in the city attending a midwestern legislative conference.

Stupidity and Facebook Don’t Mix, but Stupidity and Criminal Charges Do
In our age of hyper self-absorption it’s easy for some to rationalize their way into the craziest (and stupidest) of actions. Cameron D’Ambrosio, a young would-be rapper, discovered the high price of public stupidity after an offensive Facebook post garnered him not the fame he craved, but an arrest and terrorism charges instead. Lawrence District Court Judge Lynn Rooney … [Read more...]
Cutting Egypt’s Internet Access: Who Benefits?
An odd story crossed my desk over the weekend. Not that there is anything unusual about that… odd stories cross my desk all the time. This one, however, puzzled me because it just didn’t make much sense. An Associated Press story spoke of the Egyptian Navy capturing three divers [allegedly] in the midst of cutting an undersea cable that feeds Egypt’s internet … [Read more...]
In our rush to mediocrity academic excellence is a crime
Everyone is a winner! No child left behind! You hurt my feelings! You didn’t include me! And so it goes… rewarding excellence is a crime against the mediocre and the lazy… a crime for which the excellent must be punished. How dare they, after all, stand out from the crowd? Have they no shame? The questions are, of course, completely backward. It's the … [Read more...]
Even the Rich and Famous must suffer the Fools of Airport Security
In the realm of human stupidity it's hard to do worse than the intrepid fools who inhabit the ranks of airport security. There common sense is verboten and the ability to think rationally... well, let's just say it's not welcome there either. The latest entry into the stupidest airport security blunder ever this week goes to the Swiss... a prize that actually surprised me. … [Read more...]
Christopher Robinson: A Deadbeat Dad Too Stupid To Be On Facebook?
Christopher Robinson is a deadbeat dad. He’s happy to jump in the sack but loath to accept the inevitable consequence of that act: a child. Christopher Robinson is the type of man I despise. He is by all accounts I can find thoroughly selfish, irresponsible and completely self-absorbed. He is also stupid. For over three years he failed to make a single child support … [Read more...]
