  1. European court orders France to pay compensation to Somali pirates because it took 2 days too long to bring them to France and charge them. Another example of why we should not let lawyers make any decisions, ever..

      The problem is that judges are lawyers, as are most politicians. Lawyers as a general rule of thumb, are unethical, dishonest, and completely uninterested in reality.

      The reality they are forced to be interested in is what's written in the law books. Apparently there is a law on those books in Europe dealing with time restrictions on the filing of charges.

  2. I can't help wondering why a Christian pope is being so enthusiastic in encouraging the Christian countries of Europe to bring in even more Muslims. Is Christianity not fading fast enough for him?

  3. The mayor of Cologne has summoned police for crisis talks after about 80 women reported sexual assaults and muggings by men on New Year's Eve. The scale of the attacks on women at the city's central railway station has shocked Germany. About 1,000 drunk and aggressive young men were involved. City police chief Wolfgang Albers called it "a completely new dimension of crime". The men were of Arab or North African appearance, he said. BBC

  4. Getting any major resource projects approved is difficult to impossible, what with the thickets of aboriginal claims, implacable environmentalists and uncertainty over the federal government’s plans to overhaul regulatory approvals. Jeffrey Simpson

  5. If a 93 year old ex president in a wheelchair touches you and tells you a dirty joke - just smile and move back a bit. It's really not that big a deal. #whinyhelplessvictim

      There's almost nothing that makes the Left more angry than to suggest to them we ought to reconsider importing many thousands of extremely religious middle east Muslims every year.

      Dallas Morning News debunks yesterday’s labradoodle fake news story.  It’s just fake news after fake news after fake news.

      Yes, the family of the HHS chief of staff sold fancy puppies, but that’s not how he got the job, and in any case he wasn’t in charge of the coronavirus task force, no matter what you’ve read online.

  14. Trudeau Liberals spend $9 in March, highest in 11 years, just so they can claim there was a deficit last year.

      And yet this year's splurge was the largest in 11 years, just large enough for the Liberals to claim there was a deficit last year.

    3. waldo

      waldo

      yes - you're echoing just what Joe Oliver said in his article! Does it really matter if there was a minimal surplus... or a minimal deficit? One can say the exact same thing to you about the creative handiwork done by Harper Conservatives to (supposedly) arrive at that minimal projected surplus announcement... timed coincidentally to be announced right in the peak of the election campaign! Just coincidence, right?

    4. scribblet

      scribblet

      As Oliver said correctly: Liberals inherited surplus. If tenants moved into an immaculate house in October & trashed it in March it was their fault not previous tenants.

      Biden's not my boy, Shady. He's just the least (far least) worst choice here. Like everyone else who's been in politics in the US for decades he's corrupt. He's just less corrupt, less divisive and less of a moron than Trump.

    3. Shady

      Shady

      I’m not sure how somebody softer on China, advocating radical environmental regulations, banning certain energy exploitation, increases in both legal and illegal immigration and advocating critical race theory is the lesser of two evils.  It’s time to pull up your big boy pants and realize ignorant tweets or comments does not trump policy.

    4. Argus

      I don't give a shit about Trump policy. I care that he's got an IQ of 84, knows nothing about everything, and is in Putin's back pocket. He's incompetent to be the mayor of a local village, never mind a country. And that goes on top of corruption and laziness. Everywhere in the world the enemies of the West are advancing while he smiles ingratiatingly and occupies himself with golfing and ranting at actors on twitter. It's time for you to cast aside your false idol and realize there are more important geopolitical reasons to want this shit-stain of a man to be removed from power. And if all you care about are local, ie, American reasons for him to stay in power maybe you should reconsider what country you're a citizen of.

      This does prove one thing. Some people are not as evolved as the rest. I do not care what race or religion you are but if you feel it is ok to let somebody die that could be saved. Than I am a better person than you

      It's an attempt to minimize the Slavery in the US by pointing a finger at other groups and saying, "SEE THEY DID IT TOO!"

      You are not contextualizing anything.

    3. Argus

      Argus

      It's an attempt at context, and a rebuttal to the progressive narrative that European/white culture is irredeemably racist and evil. Progressives focus solely on the misdeeds in the history of the white world and never allow for the fact they were actually MORE enlightened, and gentler than most of the rest of the world. Just like they focus on isolated acts of racism in America or Canada but ignore the vastly more common racism among non-white people elsewhere - or even here. We are the least racist countries on Earth but to hear the Left talk we're worse than anyone else.

    4. Abies

      So your are arguing against something entirely made up in your own head. Good to know. I’ll wait till you have an actual argument other than a strawman.
