It's Saturday~~~In A World Gone Mad Lets Take Out The Trash!!

All week long I collect stories that I find interesting. Much of my interest concerns the sheer stupidity of the story or that of the person cited in it. I am sure many of you believe me to be a bitter human being looking for fault in those around me but in my defence I have opened up about my many faults here and do not feel bad one bit about enlightening you. I will make comments on these stories at the end. For now I will lay out each story with its source so you can read it and judge for yourself.



Headline: Student, 9 Years Old, Suspended For Sexual Harassment, Calling Teacher 'Cute'.

That's right a 9 year old boy  suspended for saying that the teacher was 'cute'.  "After a substitute teacher overheard 9-year-old Emanyea tell another student a teacher was 'cute,' school officials put him on two-day suspension for sexual harassment.'

This comes on the heels of a Boston7 year old being accused of sexual harassment for striking another boy in the groin.

Headline: 'Pogromly,' Neo-Nazi Version Of Monopoly, Allegedly Sold By Terrorist Group

'The Holocaust is just fun and games to some hateful individuals.
A German terrorist group sold a Neo-Nazi version of Monopoly to fund its illicit activities, according to authorities.
The Local reports that "Pogromly" features a Swastika starting point, concentration camps instead of railways and "gasworks".

'The Telegraph reports that proceeds from the game were used to help finance the illegal doings of the National Socialist Underground. The group is accused of murdering at least nine men and a police officer between 2000 and 2007 and carrying out 14 bank robberies, according to the paper.,

Headline: Rick Santorum: Undocumented Immigrants Are All Law-Breakers        

GOP Presidential candidate Rick Santorum, a former senator from Pennsylvania, took a hard line on unauthorized immigration during a Wednesday campaign stop in Spencer, Iowa, saying undocumented immigrants are breaking the law with "everything" they do.

"You can't be here for 20 years and commit only one illegal act ... because everything you're doing while you're here is against the law," Santorum said.

Headline: Santorum in Iowa Talks Effects of Legalized Gay Marriage on School Children

Republican presidential candidate Rick Santorum said he is concerned about legalized gay marriage spilling over into lessons in the classroom, during a campaign stop in Cedar Falls, IA on Friday.

The former senator from Pennsylvania said when same sex marriages were legally accepted - Iowa legalized gay marriage in 2009 - gay relationships would also be taught about in schools in ways parents against homosexuality wouldn't want their children exposed to.

I have been looking for 'comon sense' since it went missing several years ago. The loss of this most precious commodity coincides with the rise in our misplaced need to be 'politically correct' in all aspects of our lives.

These stories, about the two children, ages 7 and 9, being accused and investigated for sexual harassment are beyond ridiculous.  Are we so desperate to please the 'politically correct cretins' who reside in a minority of our population and who see common sense as a threat to their warped sense of life. We really need to give ourselves a reality check. Sexual harassment is a serious offense but these days we wield it like the 'sword of righteousness' against anyone of any age.

We have a similar no common sense outlook on the use of our language. Words, while they can be hurtful when used against one another, are not of themselves guilty of a crime against humanity. Take the word 'niggardly'. The word has been accused of being 'racist' an accusation that is ridiculous because it has nothing to do with ones race. Niggardly means; 1. reluctant to give or spend; stingy; miserly or  2. meanly or ungenerously small or scanty: a niggardly tip to a waiter.
 
This word only becomes offensive if used by an uneducated individual against uneducated individuals. So blame our education system for failing.  Do not punish a person who actually understands and employs the English language correctly.
 
I will not even comment on the story about the Pogromly. Its stupidity is self evident and the group that invented it are sick animals.
 
Now to my friend Rick Santorum, LOL. Why do we actually take this bigot to be a serious presidential candidate? If he were saying that 'Blacks or Jews' were lifelong thieves the politically correct crowd would be hopping mad. The NAACP would be marching in the streets and every Rabbi would be denouncing him.
 
I can relate to this attitude. There was a time when 'all' Italian Americans were thought to be members of the Mafia and therefore criminals. I have always taken umbrage with that attitude.
 
Undocumented individuals, and he is talking about Mexicans here, are being told that their illegal entry into the United States makes every act they do here a criminal act. They work hard, raise families, pay taxes and become part of the everyday fabric of our lives. They are no different than my family who started arriving here around the time of the 'War of Northern Agression' looking for a better life.
 
As far as Santorum's constant assault on same sex couples goes; he continues to show that he is either unwilling or incapable of understanding that the American Dream is for everyone not just members of his evangelical, white, wealthy and bigoted supporters.
 
In both these cases Santorum demonstrates a desire to achieve the Presidency on the backs of those whose rights he tramples and denies. HMMMM!! Is that not the way Hitler came to power? I am not saying Ricky Boy is a Hitler in the making. I am just saying!!!
 
Ricky it is time to get out of the race and crawl back in your hole.
 
Love ya,
Randy
