‘When You Provoke People…’ lefty Chris Matthews, Guest Tackle ‘Causality’ of TX Shooting ..................................................................................... mediaite.com ^ \| May 4, 2015 \| Josh Feldman Poor Cwissie has his pants in a wad because his beloved muslimes got killed by mean right-wingers.Sowwy Cwissie, but it will happen again and again and again....when the precious muslimes point guns at us. Sowwy Cwissie. In January 17,2015, and in the same public school center, there was a “Stand with the Prophet” rally by Muslims, a pro-Shariah law event, by supporters Al-Qaida and Isis organized by one of the terrorists implicate in the bombing of the garage of the NY World Trade Center in 1993. I wonder if those who try to blame the organizers of the “First Annual Muhammad Art Exhibit and Contest,” for the Muslim terrorist attack would have justified if some patriotic American had irrupted in Muslim rally on January alive, a real grievance more justified than the alleged 2015 and made a massacre of Islamic terrorists. After all, Americans are profoundly offended by the abuse of our freedoms by those who made the Muslim rally in support of the savages that decapitate, crucify and burned Christians offense provoked among the Islamic fanatics by the Mohamed cartoons. The Left never misses an opportunity to blame the victims. Our world has turned upside down The American political left have bullying and provocation down to an art form. Matthews can zip his trap. Provoking? Taunting? Kinda like asking devout Christians to bake cakes for gay weddings, eh Chris? I wish the rats in my barn ran to cheese that fast. Pam Geller’s group was provoked by the slaughter at Charlie Hebdo. That was sharia law at work. That was sharia law at just PART of its worst. We will not tolerate sharia law here. But, with the next generation of Americans, not so sure. Chrissy doesn’t ask the same questions about the thugs in Baltimore who taunt/provoke/dare the police. Never underestimate how many fundamental Western values a Leftist will jettison in his eagerness to help Islam destroy Christianity. Remember when the media questioned the backgrounds of the victims at Newtown? Remember when the media dug deep into the past of those murdered in Aurora? Remember when the media feverishly worked to expose how they all might have provoked those horrors that happened to them? Neither do I. Yet, they sure seem hell bent on doing that to the victim in Garland, Texas: Pamela Geller So if Christians were killing gays for being gay in public would Matthews say its the gays fault because they were provoking Christians??? Don’t think so. Islam means submit. I will not submit even if Matthews is happy to. Apparently Cwissy believes the Parisian journalists deserved to die too. Fools is the proper term to describe anybody who makes excuses for the Death Cult, islam.

2nd Mohammed Cartoon Gunman Nadir Soofi, Hated Dogs, Liked Noam Chomsky The 2nd gunman in the failed effort to massacre Mohammed cartoonists in Garland, Texas has been identified as Nadir Soofi. Nadir Soofi appears to be a Pakistani immigrant, he graduated from a Pakistani school, and spent time on social media ranting about America, Israel and dogs. Soofi was not a fan of dogs, writing, “Man can protect his life and health by keeping a safe distance from dogs. He should not hug them, play with them, or let them come close to children. Children should be taught not to play with dogs or to fondle them.” Looks like Soofi was suffering from the usual Islamic Dogophobia. His Facebook page is full of likes for the usual Islamic figures, including Abdur Raheem Green, a Muslim convert and violent bigot, whose organization was linked to ISIS Jihadists. Also listed were the usual suspects like Sheikh Khalid Yasin and Zakir Naik, who invariably show up on Jihadist social media. But alongside them were Noam Chomsky and Jesse Ventura. A man who hated dogs and loves Noam Chomsky obviously has no soul. Despite these sick twisted views, Nadir Soofi wrote on Facebook that he was able to promote Islam to kids locked up in a correctional facility. “Just got back from giving dawah (Islamic lecture) at a juvenile correctional facility; I thank Allah for allowing me such a honor! May Allah guide the youth to the truth, ameen!” This is how new Muslim terrorists are made. A man by the name of Nadir Soofi appears to have been employed at a family-owned Arizona dry cleaners listed occasionally as ABC Cleaners or AZ BEST 1-HOUR CLEANER, though according to a customer he was told they didn’t actually do one hour dry cleaning. I called to see about the 1 hour cleaning they advertise, and the lady was rude on the phone, said they dont do 1 hour cleaning, they just use the name. It’s unclear if this is the same Nadir Soofi, who is also listed as owning a carpet cleaning company. Whoever he is, he isn’t/wasn’t too popular with customers. I spoke to Nadir Soofi at AZ Best One Hour Cleaners, his attitude was they were right, and tough luck for me. Additionally, he adamantly stated that the other pair were beige, until I pointed out that they were blue. He then had to attend to a “customer” and hung up on me. The trousers cost $40 new, were never worn, and are now useless. In addition I paid $10 for them to treat me like dirt. Please don’t patron AZ Best One Hour Cleaners, don’t hire Nadir Soofi to work at your business, ask your local drycleaner to not use them, and before you agree to any alterations have them measured first. If that’s the same Nadir Soofi, then he’s being dry cleaned in hell now. And hopefully there are some dogs gnawing on him.

Top Ten reasons to vote Democrat .................................................................... LinkedIn: Michael Gleeson \| 5/7 \| Hiskid #10. I vote Democrat because I love the fact that I can now marry whatever I want. I've decided to marry my German Shepherd. # 9. I vote Democrat because I believe oil companies profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon at 15% isn't. # 8. I vote Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would. # 7. I vote Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it. # 6. I vote Democrat because I'm way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves. I am also thankful that we have a 911 service that gets police to your home in order to identify your body after a home invasion. # 5. I vote Democrat because I'm not concerned about millions of babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive and comfy. # 4. I vote Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits, and we should take away Social Security from those who paid into it. # 3. I vote Democrat because I believe that businesses should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as the Democrat Party sees fit. # 2. I vote Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the voters. ...And, the #1 reason I vote Democrat is because I think it's better to pay $billions$ for oil to people who hate us, but not drill our own because it might upset some endangered beetle, gopher, or fish here in America. We don't care about the beetles, gophers, or fish in those other countries.

Obama Styled Venezuelan Economy COLLAPSES COMPLETELY

More Venezuela Follies

I didn’t think the collapse of Venezuela’s socialism could be any more stark than the notice here a couple days ago of the closure of major league baseball operations, but sure enough, things are getting worse:

Venezuela to Nationalize Food Distribution

Caracas (AFP) – Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has promised to nationalize food distribution in the South American nation beset with record shortages of basic goods, runaway inflation and an escalating economic crisis.

During a rally Friday, on International Workers’ Day, the socialist leader allowed a union activist to ask for the nationalization of food and essential-item distribution.

Citing new decree-making powers recently granted by the National Assembly, Maduro said he would carry out such a measure “in the coming days and weeks.”

Maduro had pledged earlier in the week to announce economic reforms.

Various estimates suggest the government already controls about half of the country’s food distribution, but that hasn’t stopped record shortages in shops and markets.

I’m sure controlling all of Venezuela’s food instead of just half will do the trick.

But the socialist overlords are not stopping with food. Having already shut down opposition media, the tyrants are now going after the most potent political threat to their power—comedians:

It’s No Joke: Venezuela Cracks Down on Comedians

Laureano Marquez was performing a benefit at his old high school in the Venezuelan city of Maracay. The comedian dwelled on the absurdities of life in this oil-rich nation, where gas is cheaper than water but it’s hard to find milk, toilet paper and many other everyday goods.

In the supermarket, Marquez said, desperate customers will steal scarce items right out of your shopping cart.

“In Venezuela, you get robbed of stuff that isn’t even yours yet,” he said to a round of laughs.

Turning serious, Marquez tells the crowd that the socialist revolution, launched 16 years ago by the late Hugo Chavez, is collapsing under the weight of bad policies and corrupt public officials.

That message doesn’t sit well with Venezuela’s president, Nicolas Maduro. Besides jailing opposition leaders and cracking down on protesters, the Maduro government is now going after comics.

Marquez says that three of his recent shows were canceled after all three clubs that booked him were suddenly closed down for alleged tax evasion. He’s also been shut out of government-run theaters and hotels.

Over to you Daily Show. This ought to hit close to home, as the story explains:

Political satire in all forms is getting harder to find in Venezuela. Last year, the editorial cartoonist for the country’s largest newspaper was fired for depicting the national health care system in ruins.

Also gone is Chataing TV, a popular fake news show.

Last year the show’s host, Luis Chataing, made fun of the government’s frequent claims of coup plotting by the opposition. In a skit, Chataing portrayed a government bureaucrat fabricating evidence of a conspiracy with paper, scissors and glue as if part of a kindergarten art class.

The crowd loved it. The show was canceled the next day. Chataing said the government pressured the station’s owner to take him off the air, a claim President Maduro brushed aside.

Remember, this is the regime people like Michael Moore, Sean Penn, and various Kennedys hold up for emulation. You can see why.

Pamela Geller: A Response to My Critics—This Is a War .................................................................... Pamela Geller May 6, 2015 time.com Some are saying I provoked this attack. But to kowtow to violent intimidation will only encourage more of it. Sunday in Garland, Texas, a police officer was wounded in a battle that is part of a longstanding war: the war against the freedom of speech. Some people are blaming me for the Garland shooting — so I want to address that here. The shooting happened at my American Freedom Defense Initiative Muhammad Art Exhibit and Cartoon Contest, when two Islamic jihadists armed with rifles and explosives drove up to the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland and attempted to gain entry to our event, which was just ending. We were aware of the risk and spent thousands of dollars on security — and it paid off. The jihadis at our free speech event were not able to achieve their objective of replicating the massacre at the offices of the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine last January — and to go it one better in carnage. They were not able to kill anyone. We provided enormous security, in concert with the superb Garland police department. The men who took the aspiring killers down may have saved hundreds of lives. And make no mistake: If it weren’t for the free-speech conference, these jihadis would have struck somewhere else — a place where there was less security, like the Lindt cafe in Australia or the Hyper Cacher Kosher supermarket in Paris. So, why are some people blaming me? They’re saying: “Well, she provoked them! She got what she deserved!” They don’t remember, or care to remember, that as the jihadis were killing the Muhammad cartoonists in Paris, their friend and accomplice was murdering Jews in a nearby kosher supermarket. Were the Jews asking for it? Did they “bait” the jihadis? Were they “provoking” them? Are the Jews responsible for the Nazis? Are the Christians in the Middle East responsible for being persecuted by Muslims? Drawing Muhammad offends Islamic jihadists? So does being Jewish. How much accommodation of any kind should we give to murderous savagery? To kowtow to violent intimidation will only encourage more of it. This is a war. Now, after the Charlie Hebdo attack, and after the Garland attack, what are we going to do? Are we going to surrender to these monsters? The attack in Garland showed that everything my colleagues and I have been warning about regarding the threat of jihad, and the ways in which it threatens our liberties, is true. Islamic law, Sharia, with its death penalty for blasphemy, today constitutes a unique threat to the freedom of speech and liberty in general. Freedom of speech is the foundation of a free society. Without it, a tyrant can wreak havoc unopposed, while his opponents are silenced. Putting up with being offended is essential in a pluralistic society in which people differ on basic truths. If a group will not stand for being offended without resorting to violence, that group will rule unopposed, while everyone else lives in fear. Islamic law as it’s interpreted by extremists forbids criticism of Islam, the Quran, and Muhammad. If they cannot be criticized in the United States, we are in effect accepting Islamic law as overriding the freedom of speech. This would establish Muslims as a protected class and prevent honest discussion of how Islamic jihadists use the texts and teachings of Islam to justify violence. Some say that “hate speech” should be censored. But what constitutes “hate speech” is a subjective judgment that is unavoidably influenced by the political perspective of the one doing the judging. Allowing this sort of censorship would mean nothing less civilizational suicide. Many in the media and academic elite assign no blame to an ideology that calls for death to blasphemers — i.e., those who criticize or offend Islam. Instead, they target and blame those who expose this fanaticism. If the cultural elites directed their barbs and attacks at the extremist doctrine of jihad, the world would be a vastly safer place. You can try to avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality. The shootings in Garland, Paris, and Copenhagen targeting defenders of free speech, and the raging jihad across the Middle East, Africa, and Europe, are the disastrous consequences of avoiding reality. I encourage all Americans to watch the videos of the Garland event and see what Islamic supremacists wish to silence: basic, elemental free speech arguments. But we are unbowed. Even when the venue was in lockdown and hundreds of attendees were ushered down into the auditorium, the crowd was singing the Star Spangled Banner and G-d Bless America. In the face of fear, they were staunchly and uniquely American. To learn who rules over you, simply find out whom you cannot criticize. If the international media had run the Danish cartoons back in 2005, none of this could have happened. The jihadis wouldn’t have been able to kill everyone. But by self-censoring, the media gave the jihadis the power they have today. We must take back our freedom.

American City Islamic Takeover (Where are our damned politicians?) .......................................................................................................... 5/6/2015 \| Thomas Brenner How would you feel if you drove into a town here in the United States and found that many of the street signs were in Arabic only with no English wording? Then you look around and discover that many of the signs on businesses were also in Arabic. Not possible you say? Think again! Welcome to Dearborn, Michigan. Steve Tarani, author and speaker recounts what he saw when he rode with a member of the Detroit Metro SWAT Police as they drove around Detroit and into Dearborn: "The street signs suddenly went from English to Arabic. There wasn't a single English word on any shop or any street sign. And in fact, these little yellow signs were posted all along the edges. Jeremy said to me, 'this is it. We don't go past this line.' And I said to Jeremy, 'what do you mean? You guys are Detroit Metro. You're the SWAT team. You can go anywhere you want. What if you get a call over there?' He said 'this is it, it's hazardous for our team if we go past this line.'" "I have seen it with my own eyes, witnessed it in the backseat of a car and it is for real. No-go zones exist in the United States." "Dearborn, Michigan is not the only place that these settlements exist. They are spread out over the country in various cities. There's an estimate of over 5,000 known terrorist cells in the United States. However our most persistent and significant threat, right now, to us here today this morning, is the homegrown violent extremists." Some people try to discount Tarani's account but I've seen too many reports that have come out of Dearborn that would tend to support his account of the Muslim takeover of the American city. Christians have been only attacked by Muslims without prosecution. They've also been told to stay away from the city's Islamic festival and even banned from talking to people on the public streets outside the festival. The Muslim influence is so strong in Dearborn that the high schools hold girls only proms because Muslim girls are not allowed to socialize or dance with boys. These proms are religious based and no one has said anything about a violation of church and state or tried to stop them. Christian students are banned from having Christmas parties, prayer meetings or Baccalaureate services, but Muslims are allowed to pray in school and hold Islamic proms. You have to ask why organizations like the ACLU, American Atheists, Freedom From Religion Foundation and Americans United for Separation of Church and State remain silent about what is happening in Dearborn schools. Murfreesboro, Tennessee is fast becoming a second Muslim controlled city like Dearborn and there are others on the way. I have friends in the United Kingdom who have told me of how Muslims have taken over entire cities and areas in their country. What they tell me is that it all started with cities like Dearborn and Murfreesboro and just continues to spread. One of my friends compared Islam in England to a cancer that continues to spread and contaminate everything it encounters. In time it will spread to the point that the country dies from it and becomes the home of a religion that teaches hate, bloodshed and sharia law. Like a cancer, the only way to save the nation is to stop the spread of the religion of terrorism. Then he told me that in our modern sophisticated world full of freedoms and rights that it's impossible to stop the spread of Islam without igniting a worldwide religious war. Now realize that Barack Hussein Obama has been actively inviting Muslims to come to the US. He is also advocating opening our doors to up to 7 million Syrian Muslim refugees and there is no telling how many terrorists ware hiding among those 7 million. That would be like trying to cure a patient by injecting him with massive doses of cancer cells. I have to honestly say that the future of America is not looking very bright and to be honest, I don't know what to do to change it other than make others aware of it and encourage everyone to get on their knees and pray for the Christian revival of America.
