Chomsky interviewed on Al Jazeera

Chomsky interviewed on Al Jazeera published on

Just once I’d like to see this guy on CNN, just fucking once. You want evidence that the so-called liberal media are little more than tools of the plutocracy, consider how rarely you see this man’s face on TV. Intellectuals with far less standing are all over the place, Chomsky is nowhere to be seen. This, folks, is what happens when too much truth comes out of your mouth.

Pentagon Blocking Progressive Sites

Pentagon Blocking Progressive Sites published on

The Ministry of Peace is apparently running software that stops some of its computers accessing sites with certain political content, and I’m not talking about Stormfront or the personal website of some Timothy McVeigh wannabe.

Due to what the Department Of Defense claims is some sort of terrible accident, progressive sites such as Daily Kos and numerous gay advocacy sites are inaccessible but right wing websites such as those owned by Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh are not. None of this is on purpose, I’m sure, but it is rather strange that it’s been going on for a whole year and the mistake still hasn’t been rectified…

A novel new way to harass the police

A novel new way to harass the police published on

In a horrifying new trend, young men in the southern states of the US are traumatizing brave and noble officers of the law by shooting themselves in the head.

Yes, the little bastards are allowing the Stormtroopers to cuff them and place them in their cop cars before horrifying the officers by pulling out a handgun and shooting themselves in the head. How much do you have to hate the cops to want to traumatize them this way? To go to the trouble of shooting yourself while your hands are cuffed behind your back? The contortions that must take! And being able to hide the gun so expertly that even the cops missed its presence, these bastards must be spending a lot of time reading books on sleight of hand – all so they can make a mess in the back of a cop car. Disgusting.

Kentucky Does Not Execute Non-Believers…

Kentucky Does Not Execute Non-Believers… published on

It just threatens to send them to jail.

Since 2006, the state has had a “homeland security law” ( since 9/11, pretty much the standard excuse for just about any violation of Americans’ civil rights ) which puts some of its citizens at risk of a whole year in jail if they do not acknowledge that The Angry Old Man In The Sky keeps them safe from being blown up by terrorists. Funny, really, because another well-known religion claims it is The Angry Old Man In The Sky who wants them blown up to begin with…

The good news seems to be that most of the state’s inhabitants are not at risk, as this Kentucky Fried Idiocy applies only to those in charge of placing certain plaques outside The Ministry of Peace, er, I mean the Homeland Security building. These individuals could be charged and jailed if they do not display a plaque bearing these blitherings…

“The safety and security of the Commonwealth cannot be achieved apart from reliance upon Almighty God.”

Why have certain Christian lawmakers gone to such lengths to make sure this bit of religious propaganda is displayed by a state organization? Well, apart from the hubris so often seen amongst the devout, it helps to blur the lines between church and state, as well as giving the foolish and the gullible the opportunity to “reason” that if The State says it, it must be so.

Blind Old Man in UK Taser Terror!

Blind Old Man in UK Taser Terror! published on

Colin Farmer made the mistake of going out for a walk while carrying a samurai sword. Oh, wait, it was actually a white cane! But some cop apparently can’t tell the difference, so he zapped the blind 61-year-old with 50,000 volts! Farmer seems to have survived without permanent injury, but at such an age and with a couple of strokes in the background his can be considered a lucky escape…
