Calm down, petal. It’s only a camera.

Senior NZ cop on the shooting of a speed camera:
Superintendent Steve Greally: “Whether you agree with the fact that a camera’s there or not, you don’t take a gun and try and destroy it. That’s barbaric, and it’s incredibly violent behaviour, and somebody’s clearly out of control.”   link
I don’t recall a senior NZ police officer ever referring to black gangs and their prediliction for rape and mayhem in the same terms.
Priorities and multiculti pieties, eh?

an “organised invasion”

‘Czech President Milos Zeman has called the current wave of refugees to Europe “an organised invasion”, adding young men from Syria and Iraq should instead “take up arms” against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (Isil) group.
“I am profoundly convinced that we are facing an organised invasion and not a spontaneous movement of refugees,” said Zeman in his Christmas message to the Czech Republic released on Saturday.
He went on to say that compassion was “possible” for refugees who are old or sick and for children, but not for young men who in his view should be back home fighting against jihadists.
“A large majority of the illegal migrants are young men in good health, and single. I wonder why these men are not taking up arms to go fight for the freedom of their countries against the Islamic State,” said Zeman, who was elected Czech president in early 2013…’

58 facts about the US economy….

…and none of them are good-

“The world didn’t completely fall apart in 2015, but it is undeniable that an immense amount of damage was done to the U.S. economy.  This year the middle class continued to deteriorate, more Americans than ever found themselves living in poverty, and the debt bubble that we are living in expanded to absolutely ridiculous proportions. “

Britain:
Theresa May says new spying powers will be used to bring cyberbullies and online trolls to justice
New spying laws will be used to bring online bullies and trolls to justice, the Home Secretary says.

Theresa May reportedly claims the surveillance powers – unveiled under the Investigatory Powers Bill last month – will help police and spooks to track down and identify anonymous cyberbullies.
This is because they will force Internet firms to retain individuals’ connection records – which may then be used by officials to unmask abusive users going by various aliases, The Times reports.
It is the first time the government has said the new laws will be used to deal with what Mrs May describes as the ‘pernicious’ issue of cyberbullying, which affects millions of young Brits annually….’
Millions of stupid young girls, that is. And for this, people are being spied upon and their few freedoms threatened.

The criminals in charge:

wp-1450844829719 ‘The Obama’s Administration Is Arresting Independent Journalists for Anti-Government Speech
On December 16, 2015, I published the following picture and commentary based upon credible intelligence that Attorney General Loretta Lynch had instructed the Department of Justice and DHS to target journalists from the Independent Media for daring to speak out against admitting immigrants to the United States without conducting the requisite background checks.
This is the face of a domestic terrorist. She will jail all talk show hosts who speak out against Muslim extremism. One day following the San Bernardino massacre, she did not utter a word about the 14 Americans that were executed by a Muslim terrorist. But Lynch(mob) threatens to arrest anyone speaking out against Muslim extremism. I do not have words to describe how out of touch this administration is with the American people. Please note the background as Lynch delivered her threat to Americans who will not submit to extremism and Sharia Law. ..’
