  • Sheriff Joe Is Under Fire for Arresting Hispanics as Illegal Immigrants

    Now he's under fire for dispatching teams of sheriff's deputies into Hispanic communities where they stop people and arrest anyone who cannot prove he or she is a legal U.S. resident.

    The entire Phoenix metro are is arguably a "Hispanic community." Negating the liberal media spin, this is simply a case of where law enforcement is asking for proof of legal status when they stop people for any reason. Not stopping people just to ask for their identification.

    Theres a better reason. Once Bloomburg takes the stand as a witness he's subject to cross examination as well as introduction of evidence about his bias, credibility, etc.

    This judge did Bloomberg a favor. The last thing a politician like him wants to is to be subject to cross-examination under oath.

    It was not American political speech at issue; the business’s conduct with a foreign flag more likely falls under the auspices of hostile foreign invasion and conquest of US territory.

    Felony Murder

    An unlawful homicide that occurs in the commission or attempted commission of a felony, which is considered first degree murder by operation of this doctrine. In many modern statutes, only homicides that occur in the course of certain specified felonies are “felony murders.” See N.J.S.A. 2C: 11-3 (3). The evil mind or malice that is necessary to find someone guilty of murder is implied or imputed from the actor’s intent to commit a felony. See 383 F. 2d 421, 426. For example, if someone burned down a warehouse and thereby committed arson, which resulted in the death of a person in the building, the arsonist is guilty of first degree murder (”felony murder”) even if he did not know of the presence of the person and he had taken special precautions to try to avoid any loss of life. The harshness of this doctrine has led to a limitation of its use except against the person who actually committed the underlying felony. See Model Penal Code §§210.1 et seq.

    First, the fact its a real long opinion indicates it has a weak and twisted argument supporting it. Second the court arguably lacked jurisdiction since ONLY illegals who had been harmed would have standing. Third, if they only illegals have standing, they also have unclean hands and are barred from having the court hear their claim. This Judge way overstepped his bounds.

    which I had given to Belair. (And, of course, expensed to the Globe.)

    Arguably, he was an agent of the Globe since they ratified his illegal activity. It would be interesting to see if any prosecutors go after the Globe for their actions in paying for (and profiting) for a violation of federal law.

  • Ten Politically Incorrect Truths About Human Nature

    Abogado to gridlock
    This article is an agenda driven argument using some truths, major omissions and many false conclusions apparently to promote the disintegration of marriage.

    “Humans are naturally polygamous … Typically, human males are 10 percent taller and 20 percent heavier than females. This suggests that, throughout history, humans have been mildly polygamous…. We know that humans have been polygynous (sp) throughout most of history because men are taller than women.”

    BS ALERT! Correlation is not causation. First there are many naturally occurring mating pairs amongst wild animals. Generally, males are usually larger then females regardless of whether the species is monogamist or polygamist. There’s more of course…
