Collective Punishment?

Crime, Criminal Injustice, Individualism Vs. Collectivism, Justice, Media, Morality, Pop-Culture, Sport

When the events surrounding pederast Jerry Sandusky surfaced, I ventured that, to an outsider, the American football scene was obscene—starting with its incestuous fraternities, the rock-star status surrounding handlers and players, their pompom-waving, knickers-baring groupies, and the tantrum-prone fans who experience bare-fanged fury when their heroes let them down. The problem with this freak show is that the participants are pathologically invested in it.

Besides, how did the words “coach” and “legendary” ever come to be paired? Ridiculous.

Now comes the news that the NCAA, whatever that stands for— reporters no longer follow the convention of first writing out acronyms in full—has leveled a punishment on Penn State that will likely affect every student at the university.

Collective punishment for transgressions (crimes included) committed by certain individuals (who are no longer at the helm)!

The football program will also be excluded from playing in bowl games and post-season games for four years, as well as having its football scholarships reduced from 25 to 15, and having to pay a $60 million fine, the equivalent of one year’s revenues from the football program.

Thirteen team victories have been voided. So many kids must have worked hard and played their hearts out. Why are they are being penalized?

Career and camera-conscious individuals will do anything to look as if they are busy doing something. This is all Brownian Motion, and terribly unfair.

Shit Happens. Live With It, Or Be Prepared

Trust RT to present a cool-headed, reasoned antidote to the hysteria that ensues, invariably, in mainstream media, each time the reality of evil asserts itself.

Reason magazine Senior Editor Brian Doherty did a good job on RT America in explaining the errors of the thinking behind the clamor for gun control, and central management of risk, vis-a-vis the Colorado ‘Batman’ screening massacre, earlier today.

These events, and gun murders in general, are rare and getting rarer every year, says Doherty, who is the author of a book about guns. This, despite the fact that all states have liberalized their gun laws, many more Americans are carrying weapons—and four million Americans each year apply for gun-ownership licenses.

Alarmist news headlines notwithstanding, gun violence has plummeted by half, says Doherty.

There will never be a policy prescription that will preempt or stop the lone “lunatic” from carrying out his evil intentions.

Policy prattle is futile. Let us talk, instead, about readiness, in the event the next coward thinks he will meet with no resistance.

UPDATED: Warn White Kids? Fogetaboutit (Culling Your Kids)

Crime, Criminal Injustice, Journalism, Law, Left-Liberalism And Progressivisim, Propaganda, Race, Racism

If you want the truth about the plague of black-on-white violence, don’t watch Big Media’s news reports, where they work overtime to mask the facts. Don’t tune in to the vain chit-chat on Judge Jeanine’s show; read the Comments section. Despite the baffle-gab on cable, Americans get it. But why don’t they warn their vulnerable kids?

Here is a comment one wise guy appended to the tangent title on Judge Jenine’s Page (“Judge Jeanine Investigates the Mysterious Death of a High School Graduate.” She did no such thing.)

Alanbanford:

Let’s cut through the chase, the High School Graduate was killed because he was White. Don’t insult the rest of us with everything under the sun except what it really is, and very common. Let’s look at FBI murder stats, put that on TV.

“Alanbanford” was referring to Marley Lion, RIP, the prototype child, with the prototypical WASP parents I wrote about in “Sacrificing Kids To PC Pietism”:

Mild and meek, vulnerable boys like Carter Strange [or Marley Lion] deserve to be informed of the real dangers they face by the formative figures in their lives. Instead, these errant adults feed these precious people a pack of lies, and enfeeble them with pieties …

In any event, it’s not easy to find the Marley Lion story, and when it is “written up”—journalism of white-on-black hate crimes being so shoddy—the details are purposefully sketchy. Here is a journalism 101 FAIL from the Post and Courier’s EDWARD C. FENNELL:

Lion was shot multiple times early Saturday in a sport utility vehicle he had parked off Savannah Highway. Before dying, Lion told police he parked to sleep because he’d had too much to drink and was unable to drive home.

Paul Bowers of the Charleston City Paper does the bare minimum:

Marley Lion, a recent graduate of Academic Magnet High School, was shot inside his Nissan Pathfinder early Saturday morning in the parking lot by Famous Joe’s Bar and Grill at 1662 Savannah Highway, and around 4:05 a.m., police found him lying on the ground beside the vehicle. Lion was still alive at the time, and he told an officer he had been sleeping in the car because he was too intoxicated to drive home. He said two black males walked up to the vehicle and one of them shot him five times before they left the parking lot on a gravel path toward Yew Street.
The video shows someone walking up to the vehicle, doing something near the driver’s-side front door, and then leaving the scene when the vehicle’s headlights start flashing on and off. Detective Richard Burckhardt, the lead investigator in the case, says this is the point where Lion presses a button on a key fob to trigger the vehicle’s alarm system. About 20 seconds later, someone approaches Lion’s car with a gun and fires several times.
Police say the gunman is a black male who appears to be taller than the vehicle, putting him in the range of 5 feet 8 inches to 6 feet tall. He has a medium to stocky build and was wearing a striped or checker-patterned shirt at the time of the murder, and he fled on foot toward the Ardmore neighborhood afterward, according to the police investigation.

Poor boy. He pulled over because intoxicated. He used good judgement—and lived long enough to tell the tale. But Marley’s dying words were for naught. As expected, an “errant adult” in the person of Charleston Police Chief Gregory Mullen has issued the standard obfuscations. “There is no indication that this crime was anything other than random, senseless violence.”

UPDATE (June 24): Anyone who has a child who looks vaguely like Morely—clean-cut, enviably pretty, all-American—will find it near impossible to watch this devilish culling of the boy. (I analyze the envy that propels en masse slaughter in Africa in “Into the Cannibal’s Pot.”)
And anybody who has a child that has been through the “system,” as has my own, will find that that kid has been groomed for sacrifice—and turns on her parent for warning her off.
Public education (helped by parents) has turned our kids into the prototypical white left-liberals, whose creed is PC pietism, and who are passionate about sacrificing their precious lives for Da Creed.

UPDATED: Arrested for Being a Tomboy (& Talking too Much)

Crime, Fascism, GUNS, Individual Rights, Law, Private Property

They’re getting closer! Those of us who, like young Celia Alchemy Savage, “distrust government,” and, like the 23-year-old Georgia tomboy, believe that “everybody ought to be able to set on their property and do whatever the heck they want to”: Watch out.

Celia Savage, who likes to blow things up on her property or in the forest clearing, was arrested for telling an agent of Police State USA that she liked to “Blow things up. …” especially “toilets in the woods.”

She did nothing wrong, other than blow her mouth off to an officer of the police state. She was not caught in any criminal act, as far as I can tell. There was no plausible cause to search her home. But they did. Based on what they found during that raid, Savage is being “held on federal weapons, explosives and drug charges, and has been denied bond.”

Savage’s Facebook profile, which is also still on the web, lists “explosives” as an interest, her political orientation as “anarchist” and her status as “Push to test. Release to detonate.”
“I despise all law enforcement and any governing authority,” she says in her “about Celia” section.

Had the Georgia resident offered her skills to Uncle Sam’s fighting force, she’d be in the clear, especially if she blew off some “toweled” heads, or peed on them.

What next? Question her likely many Facebook Friends? Perhaps Savage is my friend and I don’t know it?

UPDATE (June 2): “Beware Of People Like … Mercer”:

A secret Missouri State police report, “entitled ‘The Modern Militia Movement,’ and dated February 20, 2009,” is warning about subversives like … me [and YOU].

One of the incriminating telltale signs the Missouri Information Analysis Center (MIAC) is on the look out for are Ron Paul stickers.
I have one on my car. It reads: “Don’t blame me, I supported Ron Paul.”
The MIAC has cultivated an ensnaring network of snitches and spies”—consisting of local, state and federal agencies, as well as the public sector and private entities”—all instructed to keep their eyes peeled for “paraphernalia” associated with the patriot movement. Flags, for example. Guilty again. A magisterial “Don’t Tread On Me” flag snakes across the front page of this website, where my seditious work is stored. The Gadsden flag appears on every other page too. I can’t get enough of “that funky snake,” as my website developer calls the critter.
Indeed, this early American symbol represents some of the values I cherish and champion. The Stars and Stripes stands in stark contrast to the “modest motto” the rattler embodies. Beloved of Republicans, especially, the American flag has ceased to symbolize the ideals of individual and national sovereignty, but stands, rather, for arrogance and imperialism, at home and abroad. …
