‘Yale fail: Ivy leaguers sign ‘petition’ to repeal First Amendment
Looking to understand just how controversial the debate over free speech on our college campuses really is, filmmaker and satirist Ami Horowitz recently traveled to Yale University, one of our nation’s most prestigious institutions of higher learning, to speak directly to students.
“I decided to take this campus free speech debate to its logical conclusion,” said Horowitz, who asked students if they’d sign a petition calling for an outright repeal of the First Amendment. “The result was this unbelievable display of total stupidity.”…’

Way to go, Vladimir.
‘VLADIMIR Putin today showed David Cameron how Russia deals with homegrown terrorists as he launched a huge crack down on Islamic State (ISIS) recruiters.
The iron-fisted president has called in his feared secret service to round up thousands of jihadis just hours after it emerged that British police are wilfully letting our extremists flee to safe havens abroad.
Moscow has identified more than 2,900 of its citizens suspected of joining ISIS and other radical Islamist groups, and is actively hunting them down both at home and abroad.
…Agents have launched a huge crackdown to destroy the terrorists’ financing operation in Russia and have completed 5,000 checks on the accounts of suspicious people and companies, leading to 270 prosecutions…’ Link

‘The two largest social networks, Facebook and Twitter, and the world’s largest search engine, Google, have teamed up with German law enforcement to delete “hate speech” within 24 hours in what is being seen as a last-ditch effort to silence public dissent about a gigantic wave of Syrian immigration.
The partnership to crack down on what Germany deems illegal speech comes after German law enforcement’s reported concerns about “racist abuse” posted to social media after the country’s huge and extremely controversial import of over a million Syrian refugees…’

‘Hundreds of migrants arriving in Norway had mobile phones containing images of executions, severed heads and dead children, police reveal
Norwegian police found ‘hundreds’ of images of brutal violence and executions on phones of asylum-seekers entering the country, amid growing fears that ISIS is exploiting the migrant crisis.
….Erik Haugland, head of Norway’s asylum programme pointed out that it was possible the images were on the phones for innocent reasons…’

‘Kate Camp shares her experience of visiting the former battlefields of Ypres in Belgium.
There are so many things that will break your heart when you think about the fighting in Belgium. The bunkers by the canals where doctors operated their butcher’s shops. The gas attacks that left the ground littered with rabbits, mice and moles, driven from their holes by the low-rolling cloud….’
‘Inch by inch our enemies take the civilized world’
The Woodpile Report:
‘…Obama we understand. As he said years ago, “if the political winds shift in an ugly direction, I will stand with the Moslems.” Plain enough. But what are we to think of unelected leaders who can’t or won’t hold the guilty fully accountable, who also tell them “we stand with you”? Why not with us? Why do we have an Attorney General who threatens us for speaking against those who periodically murder us, do we now live under Sharia Law? Why the followup intimidation after every outrageous attack, can’t the jihadists do this without DoJ’s help? And why the rush to import more of them, is there some sort of shortage?…’

‘The United States of Injustice
We are persecuted by our government. We elect representatives and they are ignored. We are subjected to a blizzard of laws, rules, and regulations imposed by an occupying army of leftist bureaucrats; friends of Obama are exempt.
Our rights are trampled. Our money is confiscated to the extent that nearly half our labor is devoted to funding a government that is incompetent at every basic task besides oppression. Our contributions to society are belittled, as if the welfare-sucking losers living on Democrat handouts built this country instead of us.
This is unjust. This is wrong. And this will not last. Where there is no justice, there will be no peace. Trump is only the harbinger of a much deeper anger, and a fully justified one. It cannot continue; the status quo is not static, and injustice will create a reaction. Upheaval is coming, and chaos looms if we stay this course. It’s not too late to fundamentally transform back into a just society, but that would take a real leader. And right now, we don’t have one….’

‘The trillion pound bill:
That’s what this respected expert says the climate summit may cost the world each year. And yet, he argues, it will hardly change a thing
The UN Climate Change Conference in Paris, which reached an agreement to limit the rise in global temperature to less than 2C, has been a festival of hot air, writes BJORN LOMBORG.
In a peer-reviewed research paper based on pre-conference pledges, I measured the environmental impact of every nation fulfilling every carbon-cutting promise between 2016 and 2030. I found that the total temperature reduction will be just 0.048C by 2100….’
