Book Burnings, Because Feminism.
To be accurate, I should leave out the ‘s’ because only one book got burned. But when it comes to burning books, tense accuracy is not the first priority. We are pilgrims in an unholy land.

So a guy decides that he’s not getting sex enough, and that he’s gonna kill some people, and that will show them all . . . something. Read that again. Did you notice the part where it doesn’t make any sense? Like, any at all? Let’s go with that. Let’s not turn Rogers into the… Read More Why I’m Not Talking About Elliot Rogers, and You Shouldn’t Be, Either.
When I snarked about this a few days ago, I didn’t know that Rep. Henriquez was black (I also incorrectly called him a Congressman, rather than a Massachusetts State Representative). It doesn’t really matter that he his black (unless one wants to argue that if he were a white Democrat, he wouldn’t be in jail… Read More Democrat in Jail For Domestic Violence Protected From Expulsion by….NAACP
There’s a Democratic Congressman in jail right now. He hasn’t resigned and is basically doing government work from his jail cell.

But on average, the women I talk to just aren’t nearly as willing to sacrifice close friendships, and family relationships,… Read More Megan McArdle on the Choices Women Make

The idea is to pretend that your opinions are entirely mainstream, even though they’re so far removed from the mainstream that you have to organize a protest to express them. Of course, if your “protest” involves nothing more than saying… Read More When You Slutwalk in Public, the Public Also Slutwalks in You
The terrorized wives of convicted lefty terrorists are less victimy than the hypothetical pregnant women who just need nine-month abortions. I mean, does Tetyuau Kimberlin even have cute pink shoes like Wendy Davis?
Here’s a joke from my old blog: Q: How do you separate the grown-ups from the children at the Huffington Post? A: With a crowbar. This was in response not only to the linked material, but to the centrifugal talking points that accompanied the almost-extradition of Roman Polanski from Switzerland a few years ago. You remember,… Read More Progressives Love Them Some Jailbait
