Reforming Islam....
Now lets imagine that another practice arose. . and it MAY
It's also a religious practice.. in the same way that removing a womans external sex organs is accepted and practiced by .. Islamists.
This will be fun !
Especially for those extreme feminists, the ones who hate men and the "patriarchy" and all that, probably lesbians - "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bike."
So a judge said that "the federal FGM ..(female genital mutilation)..law was unconstitutional."
Yes, an American judge issued this ruling. It's an interesting ruling.
I'm not 100 % sure, I'll go verify, but I'm almost 100% positive that the person, the judge issuing this ruling is MALE.
Yes, here we have it;
[ On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman threw out mutilation and conspiracy charges against all the defendants. He ruled that a 1996 federal law that bans female genital mutilation was unconstitutional because Congress didn't have the power to regulate the behavior in the first place. ]
https://www.apnews.com/41a21048d86d499bafa1c869b2a00c17
So this ruling was issued by a male judge.
This doesn't surprise me.
But we now have a religious group that removes mens penises for religious reasons.
It's no less barbaric and cruel than removing a girls outside sex organs with sharp objects.
This judge cannot logically rule differently on this can he ? Though I'll bet he WOULD.
A religious practice it is ! These days there are plenty of women that would probably support it !
Women have been demanding equality .. equality in ALL WAYS ! If there are religious rites that condone removing a womans sex, there are now also rites that do the same to men. We now have full equality men !
[ Friedman said in his ruling that states without laws specifically banning female genital mutilation can still prosecute the practice under laws that criminalize sexual battery and abuse.
"No state offers refuge to those who harm children," he wrote.
But those abuse laws often don't take the specific issues surrounding female genital mutilation into account, said George Zarubin, AHA's executive director.
"This is such an underground, secretive, barbaric practice," Zarubin said. "I think the judge made a major mistake." ]
Yes, it WAS a major mistake. A mistake brought on by the "diversity" crowd that is balkanizing America as fast and as hard as it can.
I say this judge gets to be the first America male to experience the now accepted religious practice of forced removal of the penis.
Equality !!
[ Genital mutilation, also known as female circumcision or cutting, has been condemned by the United Nations. The World Health Organization says there is no health benefit to the procedure, and it can cause numerous health problems. The practice is common in parts of Asia, Africa and the Middle East and is generally performed as a way of controlling a girl's sexuality. ]
It's "...generally performed as a way of controlling a girl's sexuality."
Oh even BETTER !
Need we examine what sex it is in America that is guilty of most sex crimes ?
This gives us even MORE reason to start male genital mutilation in America. It would be "...generally performed as a way of controlling a (boy)'s sexuality."
I wonder how many rapes and molestations this would put a stop to ???
Alright, enough about it.
We either put a complete stop to this caveman bullshirt called "female genital mutilation," or we start allowing little boys sex organs to be removed.
For equality !
We have judges issuing rulings about how legal or illegal federally or state ... it is to cut off the sex organs of young girls ??
What do we say ? How is it that this is even an issue in America ?
Ask a local nitwit liberal who blathers mindlessly on about diversity and open borders.
Now this from our wonderful "diversity" seekers.
Bringing us "diversity" with those who . .
..slice off girls genitals, treat women like dogs, behead infidels, hijack and fly airplanes into our buildings, NOW they've entered our government.
They get to wear their religious garb in Congress !
So much for the mindless liberal chant of "separation of church and state" LOL
"Nevermind that, we want to be 'inclusive and diverse.' The religion of submit by killing is great ! 'Separation of church and state' HAH, we all know that was used only when we found it useful to shut those dumb Christians up.'"
Nancy Pelosi will move to repeal a 180-year rule prohibiting head coverings on the floor of Congress.
A CNN anchor suggested two years ago that all American women wear the hijab in solidarity with Muslim women against a Trump presidency.
Every liberal media outlet is celebrating the election of two Muslim women to Congress -- Ilhan Omar of Minnesota and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan.
..they both wear the traditional hijab, ..Both women will be sworn in on the Koran, and Tlaib will wear a Palestinian robe to show she is firmly in the anti-Israel camp. What a surprise. By the way, it is interesting to note that Jews have served in Congress since the early 1800s and there has been no Jewish push to allow wearing the yarmulke.
Ilhan Omar is an America-hating leftist who is using her religion to win sympathy as a victim.
Muslims have not been victims of Americans.
It is the other way around. Islamists killed 3000 of our people on 9/11 and have killed many more in other terrorist attacks. Yet, by her own admission, after 9/11, Omar did not start an anti-terrorist movement within Islam. She did not express mourning over the deaths of fellow citizens. Instead she played the Muslim victim and decided to start wearing her hijab to express pride in her Islamic identity.
Having escaped war-torn Somalia to come to America, was she grateful to live in a nation of peace and prosperity? No. She says upon arrival in America, she was confronted with "my otherness" as a Muslim and black. She and her family were granted asylum, and her first impression is the "otherness" she feels?
She is exactly the kind of immigrant we do not need -- a perfect ingrate.
[ so we gave her a position in Congress ! Way to go America ! ]
She was barely sworn in as a citizen when her resentment surfaced. "I think back to the [citizenship] orientations I went through a little over 20 years ago," says Omar. "...they did not have people who were homeless... There was an America where prosperity was guaranteed...," She added, "I wasn't comfortable with that hypocrisy."
She should have failed her citizenship test. In America, it is up to each individual to make the most of our gifts and abilities. Our Constitution secures our God-given freedom and fundamental rights. No one is "guaranteed" prosperity.
I remind her, Nancy Pelosi and the women of Congress that Islamic law enslaves women in a system of beating, rape, genital mutilation, honor killings and denial of education.
Kamal Saleem, a former jihadist and member of the Muslim Brotherhood. Now a Christian, he confirms that Islam is not merely a religion, but a cultural, political, and military system of conquest through violence, stealth, or both. His mission was to undermine America's way of life and demand submission to Sharia Law. Islam does not assimilate. It infiltrates. If there is any doubt about that, look at the crisis Europe is facing with its Muslim population.
The end goal of Islam is all people living under a worldwide Islamic Caliphate. Any honest Muslim will admit that, but under the doctrine of taqiyya, lying to advance the cause of Islam is virtuous.

What are some of the first words from our Islamic "Congresswoman" ? 'We're Gonna Impeach the Motherf**ker.'
Our new headscarf wearing Islamist 'congresswomen' tells us;
""This is not just about Donald Trump. This is about all of us. What should we be as a nation? Who should we be as a people? In the face of this constitutional crisis, we must rise."
She's right, it IS 'about all of us' and 'What should we be as a nation? Who should we be as a people?'
She's wrong when she makes a case for impeaching a president based only on her dislike for him. The man has done nothing wrong.
Other than win the presidency from hilary barf-bag clinton
They'll make up garbage like they did with Roy Moore and Brett Kavanaugh and drag it on forever in the media to weaken his presidency.
It's all they have, it's all they can do, they're desperate, full of hatred and stupidity
Of course the Islamists want to sew even greater division and hate in America.
What a surprise *yawns* In the name of "diversity" ... The congresswoman is one of the first Muslim women elected and is helping American politics become more diverse.
Wonderful. Now we have another lowlife Islamist in high office in the Unites States government.
And she has such a wonderful command of the English language and wants to show it off publicly !
Making America "diverse" ... or something -rollseyes-

Rashida Tlaib's First Day in Congress: 'We're Gonna Impeach the Motherf**ker.'
In the Detroit Free Press article, both Tlaib and Bonifaz argued that members of Congress "do not need to wait" until Mueller's investigation is complete before attempting to impeach the president:
Whether the president was directly involved in a conspiracy with the Russian government to interfere with the 2016 election remains the subject of Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation. But we do not need to wait on the outcome of that criminal investigation before moving forward now with an inquiry in the U.S. House of Representatives on whether the president has committed impeachable "high crimes and misdemeanors" against the state: abuse of power and abuse of the public trust. Each passing day brings new damage to the countless people hurt by this lawless president's actions. We cannot undo the trauma that he is causing to our people, and this nation. Those most vulnerable to his administration's cruelty are counting on us to act—act to remove the president and put this country on a path to true justice.
... [ like president Obama did ? ]
Tlaib and Bonifaz concluded the op-ed by straying from the moderate Democrats' argument that impeachment of the president is unwarranted and dangerous in current times.
"We are also now hearing the dangerous claim that initiating impeachment proceedings against this president is politically unwise and that, instead, the focus should now shift to holding the president accountable via the 2020 election. Such a claim places partisan gamesmanship over our country and our most vulnerable at this perilous moment in our nation's history. Members of Congress have a sworn duty to preserve our Constitution. Leaving a lawless president in office for political points would be abandoning that duty," Tlaib and Bonifaz argued. "This is not just about Donald Trump. This is about all of us. What should we be as a nation? Who should we be as a people? In the face of this constitutional crisis, we must rise."
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2...Z4dmq79AVESIJY
Speaking to a crowd at a reception held by the progressive group MoveOn near Capitol Hill on Thursday night, the new Congresswoman made a sharply worded pledge
Tlaib quoted her son telling her, "Mama, look, you won. Bullies don't win." And then she said, "'Baby, they don't.' Because we're gonna go in there, we're gonna impeach the motherfucker."

Freshly Sworn-in Dem Rep Wastes No Time Before Launching Vulgar Rant About Trump: 'Impeach the Motherf**ker'
The congresswoman is one of the first Muslim women elected and is helping American politics become more diverse.
https://ijr.com/dem-rep-trump-impeac...jjbdn7o4sgvPOE
Now that we've elected some followers of Islam into our government, do we not have an obligation to ask them some questions ?
They work for us after-all.
They're followers of a religion that's recently committed many horrendous acts against innocent people worldwide, including 9-11 right here..
.. remember that event ? 9-11 ??
Anyways, we have a right to know some things do we not ??
....because our politically correct, left-leaning media will likely never ask, we feel obligated to pose several questions for these new congresspersons.
I am confident they will want their fellow Americans to know how they stand on a number of important issues.
The two women have just been sworn in as members of the 116th U.S. Congress. Here is the oath of office they were required to take.
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God."
It's already clear how they feel about America's close ally, Israel.
During her campaign, Omar said she did not support the hateful Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement (BDS), describing it as counterproductive to peace. Immediately after the election, she flipped. Her campaign office told Muslim Girl she supports BDS despite "reservations on the effectiveness of the movement in accomplishing a lasting solution."
During her time in the Minnesota legislature, Omar referred to Israel as "the apartheid Israeli regime." She recommended that the University of Minnesota divest from Israel bonds and criticized a law intended to prohibit the BDS movement. In a 2012 tweet, she said Israel had "hypnotized the world" and was guilty of "evil doings." Omar accused journalists of Islamophobia for reporting her statements.
As for Tlaib, she openly supports punishing Israel economically in order to bring attention to issues of alleged racism and international human rights violations. "I personally support the BDS movement," she said. Tlaib, a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, supports a one-state solution: It has to be one state," she has said; two states for two peoples "does not work." She opposes United States aid to Israel.
I suppose these positions are somewhat predictable, but what about other more fundamental issues that the media won't touch?
One of the nastiest aspects of Islam is the tradition in some places of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM), a gruesome practice used to suppress female sexuality, typically found in African or fundamentalist Islamic societies.
Genital mutilation of girls involves cutting out all or part of the clitoris. This disgusting practice is a common cultural or religious practice in some African countries including Sudan, Egypt, and Ilhan Omar's country of birth, Somalia, although it has been outlawed by several international treaties. Even so, in 2017 two Muslim doctors in Michigan were arrested for carrying out this barbaric religious "rite of passage."
What is Omar's position on this? Will she campaign to have it stopped? Will she denounce its use in Africa and the Middle East? What about Tlaib?
Other women's issues are important to Americans.
The Qur'an says a husband has the right to "beat" a "disobedient wife." (Qur'an 4:34).
Have the two women ever been beaten by their husbands? Would they willingly accept it? Do they agree that Muslims wives are required to be "obedient?" Or, will Omar and Tlaib openly denounce this aspect of Islam?
Under Islamic Sharia law, homosexuals are oppressed and killed.
We've all seen the videos of blindfolded gay men being thrown off of buildings in the Middle East in the name of Allah.
In addition, women are abused and forced to wear the hijab. Do the two new congresswomen believe Sharia law should be followed in any form in the US? Will they denounce the practice of Sharia Law as a challenge to constitutional law in the United States? Will they campaign against it? If not, why not?
Islam teaches that blasphemers must be put to death.
Apostates who leave Islam are subject to the death penalty. Mohammad said, "Whoever changes his Islamic religion, kill him. Those who reject Islam must be killed." Islamic law enforces dhimmi status on non-Muslims, prohibiting them from observing their religious practices publicly, raising their voices during prayer, ringing church bells, or saying anything considered "insulting to Islam." Islamic law relegates non-Muslims to "dhimmi" status, where they are forbidden to propagate their customs among Muslims and cannot display a cross, Christmas decorations or the Star of David. It would be useful for Omar and Tlaib to clarify their positions on these fundamental Islamic issues of tolerance, a key value of American culture.
ISIS, Iran and other Muslim entities have declared themselves to be enemies of the US. Beyond that is the fundamental threat of traditional Islam to the concept of pluralistic democracy. In its widespread current form, with the explicit goal of a global caliphate under Sharia law, Islam must be regarded as an existential threat.
Specific ways are needed to deal with an ideology that openly seeks to destroy Western civilization.
What should be done to deal with this threat?
What steps as American leaders will these two new Congresspersons take to defend our country and our Constitution? Will they insist that Islamic institutions formally and in practice reject violent jihad as a condition for tax-exempt status?
Do the two new congresswomen believe that Islam needs to be reformed to more closely reflect the values of the country that they now represent in Congress?
The generally accepted values of modern America stress a wide range of freedoms involving tolerance, speech, sexuality, and lifestyles, as well as equal rights for women and minorities and a long list of others. But much, if not all of this, is contrary to Islamic law.
Linda Sarsour, a leading Muslim activist, once told the North American Islamic Society,
"I hope that when we stand up to those who oppress our community struggling against tyrants and rulers that Allah will accept this as a form of jihad not only in the Middle East but here against the fascists, white supremacists and Islamophobes here and reigning in the White House. Our top priority is to protect and defend our community and not to assimilate and please any other people or authority. Our top priority is to please Allah and only Allah."
Could the two congresswomen please explain if their views are different from those of their friend Linda Sarsour and, if so, how?
The Qur'an describes Muslims as "the best of peoples" (3:110) and non-Muslims as "the most vile of creatures" (98:6).
Muslims are told not to take "Christians or Jews as friends, for they are friends only with each other." Do Omar and Tlaib agree with the Qu'ran on this?
If not, how do they plan to educate their fellow Muslims on this issue? Are they willing to denounce the Qu'ran on this issue? Are there other parts of the Qu'ran they disagree with? Or, are they firm believers?
Of course, no matter what they say, we must remember that Muhammad was quoted in Sahih Bukhari, the most authoritative Hadith collection, at 52:269 -- "War is deceit." Lying is permitted to deceive an "enemy." The Qur'an defines the "enemy" as "disbelievers." Ahh, what to believe? Who to believe?

UPS STOPS DELIVERIES TO MUSLIM 'NO-GO ZONE'
'We will wait until it feels safe for our drivers'
The international delivery company UPS will no long deliver packages in a Muslim-majority neighborhood in Malmo, Sweden, for security reasons.
"We must think of our staff in the first place," said Mathias Krummel of PostNord.
A UPS employee said home delivery in Rosengard was stopped two months ago after drivers were attacked.
Even in some areas in Stockholm, UPS has stopped the delivery of parcels, Sydsvenskan reported.
The Rosengard district of Malmo was one of 14 notorious "no-go zones" visited by author Raheem Kassam for his book "No Go Zones: How Sharia Law Is Coming to a Neighborhood Near You."
Kassam said daily reports of attacks, often with knives or vehicles, have been reported in Germany, France, Belgium, Italy, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.
But such attacks are almost never seen in Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic, which have barred Muslim immigration.

Hear hear, it's time to pay attention !
You've been defending Muslims, telling the world how great they are. In spite of the extremely long list of murders, even mass murders they commit frequently.
You've been defending "gay" people and the newest victim group "transgenders," and telling the world how great they are. In spite of the diseases, disorders and other problems they bring the world - research a little bit, the CDC is a great place to start.
Your foolishness has made you unaware, it's time to come back down to earth, to reality, the real world.
I'm very sorry, I hate to rain on your retard parade, but Muslims do not approve of, or condone, support, think is cool, whatever, Muslims do NOT accept "gay" people or the "gay lifestyle."
Lately, you've imported as many Muslims as possible. Then created a widespread, loud media campaign promoting homosexuality, gender confusion and many other perverted ideas.
This is not going to work out for you. It's not going to work out well for ANYBODY !
We tried to tell you, you wouldn't listen.
No. You busied yourself with accusations of Islamophobia, homophobia etc.
Your stupidity now showing us what it's created.
School Program Teaching Kids About Homosexuality Shut Down Because Muslim Parents Protest
There's an intersectionality fight going on in Great Britain between humanists who had a program teaching tolerance to their schoolchildren about homosexuality and Muslims who forced the school to suspend the classes.
Parkfield Community School in Birmingham, England had classes in which a program titled "No Outsiders" taught that "families look different," in an effort to teach schoolchildren about homosexuality. The Guardian reports that the program was created by assistant headteacher Andrew Moffat, "who was awarded an MBE for his work in equality education and is also in the running for a major international teaching award." In the program, the students read books with titles such as "Mommy, Mama and Me" and "King & King."
The Guardian adds that Moffat has been receiving threats through a leaflet campaign.
The community has a great number of Muslims; the program was pulled after the school received a petition last month with over 400 signatures from parents, mostly Muslim, who have withdrawn their children from the school in protest. The Guardian reported that last Friday, roughly 600 Muslim children, aged between four and 11, were withdrawn from the school for the day.
Humanists UK, which promotes sex education (RSE) in schools, called the school's decision to pull the program a "deeply worrying" development. Humanists UK Chief Executive Andrew Copson stated:
We are deeply worried that the school has been forced to stop teaching these important classes due to mounting pressure from some Muslim parents. It is vital that all young people, some of whom will be LGBT themselves, grow up with age-appropriate information as to the facts of life and the virtue of tolerance. The UK Government has consistently said that schools will not be able to avoid teaching respect for LGBT people on the grounds of religion and we look to them now to take action. They should not give in to bullies who are opposing the values of respect, kindness, and tolerance for all in our society.
[ "Bullies" THAT YOUR "TOLERANCE" ALLOWED INTO THE COUNTRY !!! Now they're "bullies" because they don't believe in the shit YOU think they should ?? ]

Screwed themselves accepting so many immigrants that do not wish to assimilate, but want rather to overthrow.
And the political left is doing exactly the same here in the US with the Southern border.
EU liberal / progressives and US liberal / progressives. Truly birds of a feather.

He's (Erdowan) complaining about "mass killing."
He says;
"It is clear that the understanding represented by the killer that also targets our country, our people and myself, has started to take over Western societies like a cancer."
"The Turkish leader, who often criticises Islamophobic attitudes, called for the West to act to prevent similar attacks."
Islamophobia isn't going to be easy to get rid of I'd imagine, especially with what the world has watched Islamists do !
Imagine that !!
Ibrahim Kalin called it a "fascist" attack that "shows how anti-Muslim rhetoric and hatred leads to murderous acts. The world must break its silence over Islamophobic hatred".
What are the mass murders committed by Muslims called ? Tea Socials ?
"The world must break its silence over Islamophobic hatred" ??
It would help if followers of Islam weren't so regularly going around killing people and committing mass murders like 9-11.
That darn Islamophobic hatred... what should we do ?
Building love for Islam by murdering as many infidels as possible ???
MAYBE STOP KILLING INFIDELS ! MAYBE ANNIHILATE GROUPS LIKE ISIS ETC.
Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday condemned the deadly attack on two mosques in New Zealand, saying it illustrated the growing hostility towards Islam "idly" watched by the world.
The attacks on the Christchurch mosques left at least 49 dead, with one gunman ?- identified as an Australian extremist -- apparently livestreaming the assault and publishing a manifesto online.
"With this attack, hostility towards Islam, that the world has been idly watching and even encouraging for some time, has gone beyond individual harassment to reach the level of mass killing," Erdogan said at the funeral of a former Turkish minister.

Generally by shooting, bombing, beheading, or throwing people off buildings ( that's the special treatment gay people get from Islamists )

In his manifesto the Christian mass murder credited Trump for his inspiration and even called immigration an invasion; then Trump went on to on to use the invasion rhetoric again today right after the shooting. He wouldn't even admit that white nationalist terrorism is a growing problem. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTrumpSup...ing_threat_of/
In his manifesto the Christian mass murder
Where does it say in his writings that he is a "Christian" ? Can we see that please ?
credited Trump for his inspiration and even called immigration an invasion;
The mass illegal immigrant problem on our southern border IS an invasion. This killer could have "credited" ME for use of that word.
That in no way means I, OR the President condone, or are in favor of what this person did.
then Trump went on to on to use the invasion rhetoric again today right after the shooting.
So ?
The mass illegal immigrant problem on our southern border IS an invasion.
He wouldn't even admit that white nationalist terrorism is a growing problem. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTrumpSup...ing_threat_of/
You and the mental cases in Washington D.C. won't admit that there's a national emergency on our southern border.
"White Nationalist Terrorism" is a term pretty open to interpretation..... can you define that in two or less sentences, so we can know for sure when we're seeing an instance of it ?
"White Nationalist Terrorism" ...... what is that ?
In this manifesto he didn't profess to be a White Supremacist. His manifesto would seem to indicate that he's a leftist radical.
He probably IS a leftist radical.
However the "media' will forever lie and present him as a "white nationalist" who was "motivated by president Trump."
Truth is very challenging for these media people.
... and our friend rover...
Here's what we're finding....
The primary suspect in the massacre Friday of 49 people at two mosques in New Zealand named a prominent British fascist leader who was allied with Italy's Benito Mussolini in the 1930s as the historical political figure with whom he most identified.
The suspect, 28-year-old Australian Brenton Tarrant, published a 74-page manifesto before killing 49 people and injuring another 20 at the Christchurch mosques.
Tarrant wrote that Sir Oswald Mosley "is the person from history closest to my own beliefs."
Describing himself as a "racist," Tarrant state's he's not a conservative and could be labeled a socialist, "depending on the definition."
Mosely, who was photographed with Mussolini on a visit to Italy in 1936, was the leader of the British Union of Fascists in the 1930s after serving as a member of Parliament.
Already, Democratic leaders, including Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut, are casting blame on President Trump for the attacks.
In his manifesto, Tarrant describes his political ideology in a Q&A format. In summary, he says he could be described, "depending on the definition," as "right wing" as well as "left wing," and a "socialist."
He says explicitly he is not a conservative, saying "conservatism is corporatism in disguise, I want no part of it."
To the question of whether or not he is a Christian, he writes, "That is complicated."
Tarrant says he's "an actual fascist."
"I am sure the journalists will love that," he says, adding he considers himself "an Eco-fascist by nature."
Tarrant also declares that the "nation with the closest political and social values to my own is the People's Republic of China."
He poses the question of whether he is or was a "homophobe."
"No, I simply do not care all that much what gay people do," he writes. "As long as they are loyal to their people and place their peoples well being first, then I have no issues."
https://www.wnd.com/2019/03/mosque-k...cat_orig=world
It gets even better ....
On the one hand, the manifesto presents the political left as an enemy that conducted a "march through the institutions" and describes Antifa, communists, and Marxists as "anti-white scum." Elsewhere, the shooter writes that "under some definitions," he is both on the right and the left.
Elsewhere, the shooter disparages conservatism and declines to identify with it, writing that "conservatism is dead, thank god," and calling it "corporatism in disguise." Conservatives, he says, "don't even believe in the race, they don't have the gall to say race exists" and "don't even care if it does."
"The notion of a racial future or destiny is as foreign to them as social responsibilities."
Parts of the manifesto appear to be insincere trolling, aimed at sowing confusion about his motivations. At one point, the shooter blames his action on popular video game titles, saying "Spyro the Dragon 3 taught me ethno-nationalism" and that "Fortnite trained me to be a killer."
Elsewhere in the document, the shooter identifies black conservative Candace Owens — obviously neither a white nationalist nor a supporter of violence — as the "person that has influenced me above all." In a video posted online, the shooter also tells viewers to "subscribe to PewDiePie" — the pseudonym of Felix Kjellberg, a comedian and video game streamer who runs the most-subscribed channel on YouTube and whose content is majority non-political.
In both cases, the shooter attempts to link high-profile individuals — who have little in common with his stated ideology yet command large online followings and are frequently the target of unfair media hit pieces — to his attack. If it triggers a war of words between the media and their frequent targets, the result of this tactic would be more publicity for the shooter.
At three points in his manifesto, the shooter also states his intention to spark a civil war in the United States by triggering crackdowns on the Second Amendment. In his laundry list of motivations, the shooter spends the most amount of time discussing this goal, which he believes will ultimately lead to a "fracturing" of the U.S. along "cultural and racial lines."
As he describes it, his attack will "Create conflict between the two ideologies within the United States on the ownership of firearms in order to further the social, cultural, political, and racial divide within the United States."
"This conflict over the 2nd amendment and the attempted removal of firearms rights will eventually result in a civil war that will Balkanize the U.S. along political, cultural, and most importantly racial lines."
Elsewhere in the manifesto, the shooter predicts that his attack will lead to "calls for the removal of gun rights from whites in the United States… that is the plan all along."
While the shooter lists a number of highly lethal methods he might have used to carry out the act of terrorism, he states that he chose firearms "for the effect it would have on social discourse, the extra media coverage they would provide and the effect it would have on the politics of the United States and thereby the political situation of the world."
"With enough pressure the left wing within the United States will seek to abolish the second amendment, and the right wing within the U.S. will see this as an attack on their very freedom and liberty. The attempted abolishment of rights by the left will result in a dramatic polarization of the people in the United States and eventually a fracturing of the U.S. along cultural and racial lines."

"....the shooter spends the most amount of time discussing this goal, which he believes will ultimately lead to a "fracturing" of the U.S. along "cultural and racial lines.""
Which is what the left has been doing for awhile !!
In otherwords, we have another creep who hates America surprise surprise, and he's made a mass murderer of himself.
Another violent nut who hates America, willing to kill for hate....... it does get old doesn't it ?
Then we have to watch the retards in the "media" lie to the entire world about it !!

NEWS IN THE NUMBERS
U.S. Jews are more likely than Christians to say Trump favors the Israelis too much
By Gregory A. Smith

In his more than two years as president, Donald Trump has taken significant steps to support Israel, including moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and recognizing the Jewish state's sovereignty over the Golan Heights region.
While U.S. Jews have a strong attachment to Israel, they are divided in their assessment of Trump's handling of the Israeli-Palestinian issue, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. Roughly four-in-ten (42%) say they think Trump is favoring the Israelis too much, while a similar share (47%) say he is striking the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians. The rest either say he is favoring the Palestinians too much (6%) or they don't know (4%).
By comparison, Christians in the United States are more likely to say Trump is striking the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians (59%) than to say Trump favors the Israelis too much (26%). Among evangelical Protestants, 72% say they think Trump strikes the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians, and just 15% say Trump favors the Israelis too much.
The difference between evangelicals and Jews on this question partly reflects partisan divisions. Most evangelical Protestants describe themselves as Republican or say they lean toward the Republican Party, while most Jews identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party. Overall, Republicans mostly think Trump has struck the right balance between the Israelis and Palestinians, while 53% of Democrats think Trump favors the Israelis too much.
Partisanship also may be a factor when it comes to the views of religiously unaffiliated Americans (sometimes referred to as "nones"), who, like Jews, largely lean Democratic. Nearly half (47%) of the unaffiliated – those who describe themselves as atheist, agnostic or "nothing in particular" when asked about their religion – say they think Trump favors the Israelis too much.
The survey also shows that roughly eight-in-ten evangelical Protestants (79%) have a favorable view of the Israeli people, as do seven-in-ten mainline Protestants and about two-thirds of Catholics. People in all three groups are far more likely to say they have a favorable view of the Israeli people than they are to say the same of the Palestinian people.
By contrast, religiously unaffiliated people and those in the historically black Protestant tradition are more ambivalent toward Israelis. Those in both of these groups feel about as warmly toward the Palestinian people as they do toward the Israeli people. (The survey did not include enough interviews with Jews to analyze their views on these questions, because the questions were only asked of half the sample.)
Among all the religious groups analyzed in the survey, the Israeli and Palestinian governments are rated less favorably than the Israeli and Palestinian people. Still, the survey finds the same basic patterns: Evangelicals, mainline Protestants and Catholics are each much more favorably inclined toward the Israeli government than the Palestinian government, while religious "nones" and those in the historically black Protestant tradition view the two governments similarly.
In fact, roughly half of "nones" (53%) and 56% of members of the historically black Protestant tradition have unfavorable views toward both the Israeli government, headed by the recently reelected Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Palestinian leadership, which is split between the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza.

Q: java file.renameTo() does rename file but returns false. Why? The problem is that I need the file to move before the rest of my logic will work so when the method returns false I stop execution.
However, when I check on the file in windows explorer it has a new name and it moved.
Just curious why this is happening.
here is some sample code I just tried to recreate the issue.  It's pretty much the same thing and it's working fine.
File testfile = new File("TestFile");

    if(!testfile.exists()){

        testfile.mkdirs();

    }

    File sample = new File("sample.txt");

    if(sample.exists()){

        boolean success = sample.renameTo(new File(testfile.getPath() + "\\" + sample.getName()));

        if(success){

            System.out.println("Moved");

        }
        else{

            System.out.println("Failed");

        }

    }

Edit: Solved it.  I'm sorry for wasting everyone's time with something so silly.  However, I really dont think I would have tracked this down if not for making this post.
The solution was that I was actually looping through several files to move.  When the output said it failed then the program stopped and when I looked in explorer only the first of the files was actually moved so I assumed it was moving and then returning false.  However, the issue was that I was using the wrong variable as an index and so what was happeneing was that it did successfully move the file in index 0 and then when the loop repeated the index didnt increment so it tried to move index 0 again and therefore failed.
Like I said, very stupid but thanks for bearing with me.

A: Java's File.renameTo() is problematic, especially on Windows, it seems. As the API documentation says:

Many aspects of the behavior of this method are inherently
  platform-dependent: The rename operation might not be able to move a
  file from one filesystem to another, it might not be atomic, and it
  might not succeed if a file with the destination abstract pathname
  already exists. The return value should always be checked to make sure
  that the rename operation was successful.

You can use apache.commons.io library, which includes FileUtils.moveFile() or also the Files.move() method in JDK 7.

A: Isn't it possible that you file has a Inputstream open somewhere but has not been closed and so the rename is not working. Try closing all open streams relevant to the file object before closing.

A: This one worked for me
File file = new File("E:/Javadocs/" , "new.txt");

File file1 = new File("E:/Javadocs/" , "myDoc.txt");

file1.createNewFile();

if (file1.exists()){
  System.out.println(file1.renameTo(file));
}

This will create a file myDoc.txt and rename it to new.txt and will print true
I've also tried with File(URI) constructor it worked fine

Now reading: How to Wear Animal Print Like a Pro
How to Wear Animal Print Like a Pro
Indeed, you heard correctly. Animal print is back, and it's fiercer than ever this year. And we're talking about more than just your light accessory to accompany your little black dress. Animal print styles are making great strides, gracing us with all-new fashion ideas, many of which, we think you're going to love.
From satin cheetah print dresses in 90's-inspired cuts, to furry zebra print cardigans you can wear all day, every day; from full-length leopard print gowns, to snakeskin print turtlenecks, you'll be rocking the full Safari getup all the live-long year. And while, for some of you, it may seem daunting to exhibit yourself in head-to-toe wildlife ensembles, there are tamer ways to rock the animal print as per your personal preference.
Today, we're going to share a few helpful tips on how to wear animal print: primarily, how to incorporate it into your daily routine in subtle, sophisticated ways, meanwhile upscaling to bolder, wilder looks when you're looking to dominate whatever stomping grounds you call your own particular Savannah.
So let's get started.
1. The Neutral Animal Print Look
While many would say that animal print is the focal point of the outfit, they would be right, at least in part. It is a print, after all. That very fact means that it isn't your average plain white tee. It's meant to draw attention. However, animal print may also serve as a neutral gateway for incorporating color into the outfit, or for specifically not. Either way, the options are there, and you get choose which route you wish to take.
Our Safari Cami boasts a large zebra print, which, as we all know from Kindergarten, is a print solely featuring black and white, making it the perfect base to build your outfit upon. These two popular neutrals can be added to with a poppin' red silk skirt or some satin pumps. It can be paired with navy blue skinny jeans or topped with an olive blazer. As for jewelry, silver and gold are both acceptable. Or if you prefer wild, leathery, feathery, tooth-inspired pieces, these, too, go well with the already savage nature of this outfit.
Here, we went a different direction, the one of simple elegance. Partnering this zebra print lace cami with the Maldives Pant, our ever-popular wide-leg trouser that now comes in black (you're welcome), we've turned this outfit into a 100% neutral look. And yet, as you will notice, it starkly differs from what would ordinarily be considered neutral. It's neutral, yet bold; simple, yet sophisticated; minimalistic, yet a full, complete outfit. Et voila! The neutral animal print outfit is achieved!
Safari Cami, $62
Maldives Pant, $64
Athena Bracelet, $16
2. The Office-Appropriate Animal Print Look
If you're like us, you work for a living (shocker). So most likely, you're looking for work-appropriate outfits that are fun, unique, that really cater to your own sense of style - i.e. you don't want to be boring. We get that. No one wants to be boring.
That's why we've chosen pieces that are not only glowing with personality, but ones that are also versatile enough so as to wear them to work, to your Saturday coffee date, to a night out on the town, you name it. And with a wardrobe full of such easily-interchangeable items, you'll find yourself mixing and matching, able to create all-new outfits that keep your style looking fresh every single day.
Our Medusa Top is the perfect statement piece that'll carry your workplace outfit. Featuring a tie front, bishop style sleeves, and a mocked turtle neck, this blouse can easily be worn on it's own. Or if you're incorporating this into your suit, the light, airy fabric makes it easy to wear under your trusty blazer.
In addition, our Stevie Skinny's are a comfortable, non-denim, slacks-alternative option for sprucing up your workplace outfit. With a bit of sheen to add a little flair, wear these with a pair of stilettos to elongate the legs. Add in a long blazer for a more professional feel.
Medusa Top, $62
Stevie Skinny, $54
3. The Date Night Animal Print Look
Just to clarify, when we say 'date,' we mean any variation of a get-together, be it with the boo, or the besties. Whatever social outing you're venturing off to, this look's for you. So with that, let's begin.
Now that we've gotten the neutral and workplace-appropriate outfits out of the way (oodles of fun as they were), we're on to the statement piece, the one playful pop that is the all-star quarterback, front runner, the Mick Jagger of this Rolling Stones outfit.
The Fierce Mini dress is all that the name implies. Featuring a cheetah print design in a bias cut silhouette, this silky spaghetti strap dress will be your all-time favorite. It's cowl neckline and cut-out back let you show off some skin, and yet it can easily be converted to a cold-weather outfit. Simply slip a white turtleneck and a pair of sheer black tights underneath, and you'll be rocking the date look well into the winter season.
We've paired this 90's-inspired slip dress with a soft, faux leather blazer, a swanky black clutch featuring a gold chain strap, and a pair of cat-eye sunglasses for the ultimate playful look. No off you go and enjoy whatever date you've got lined up! Go on, scoot...
Fierce Mini Dress, $62
City Chic Blazer, $82
Manhattan Bag, $46
Becky Sunglasses, $98
4. The Fancy Animal Print Look
What was that, you said? You want more? Well it's your lucky day. We have here the ultimate evening animal print look, the 'I'm off to so-and-so's penthouse suite for the after party' look. And even if you've never had a so-and-so who's penthouse to wear this to, just wait. It'll happen. In the meantime, though, this works perfect for your anniversary date, your evening out with the ladies, that Christmas party you were invited to - any occasion you can find to treat yourself like the powerful goddess that you are. Because what's more alluring than snakeskin draped around your curvy figure in the form of a wrap bodycon mini dress? Nothing, that's what.
The Medusa Mini Dress features structured shoulders and a deep v neckline. A sleek wrap detail gathers at the smallest part of the waist in order to showcase your feminine figure. Meanwhile its soft stretchy fabric helps to keep you nice and comfortable all evening long.
We've added in a tan clutch as an accent piece. In addition, do as we have done and don your favorite pair of metallic pumps, throwing in a splash of bling with some sparkly hoop earrings. In an outfit like that, you'll soon find yourself a penthouse, don't you worry.
Medusa Mini Dress, $92
La Rosa Bag, $88
5. The Comfortable Animal Print Look
We've gone to work, we've been about town, we've gone on dates and to all the penthouse parties. Now it's time to wind down a bit. But that, in no way, means dressing down, you hear?
We want to cozy up, we want to be comfortable, and we also want to be cute. Is that too much to ask? Of course not. Why choose when you can have it all, right? That's the attitude we're looking for.
Our Coco Maxi Skirt is ideal for comfort. Long, flowy, featured in a metallic rust hue, pair this skirt with your favorite belt, some peep-toe sock boots, even a pair of lace tights if you're really feeling it.
The upper portion of this outfit is where our animal print comes into play. We've chosen a zebra print cardigan to keep you nice a cuddly warm. Wear this over our famous Fonda Bodysuit, featuring a deep v neckline and a knotted front detail. Top the outfit with a pair of feather earrings, and you've got yourself a lovely, comfy, altogether chic safari look.
Kenya Cardigan, $82
Coco Maxi Skirt, $64
Fonda Bodysuit, $54
Fly Away Earring, $24

Acacia hybrid plantations are widely planted for pulpwood in Vietnam, but have the potential to be managed for high value saw-logs. This study examined the growth and physiological responses to thinning as a management option to increase the sawlog yield and value. Treatments were: unthinned (planting density 1111�trees�ha−1), thinned to 833 or 600�trees�ha−1 in a single thinning at either age 2 (early) or 3 (late)�years, and progressively thinned from 1111 to 833�trees�ha−1 at age 2�years, and then to 600�trees�ha−1 at age 3�years. Three years after early thinning to 600�stems�ha−1, mean stem diameter was increased by 16.7% and the stand volume was reduced by 15.8%; thinning to 833�stems�ha−1 resulted in no significant loss in stand volume and increased mean diameter by 7.5%. The leaf area index, LAI of stands thinned to 600�stems�ha−1 recovered rapidly and there was no significant difference between unthinned and thinned treatments 1�year after thinning; this recovery was also associated with a reduction in litterfall. Thinning to 600�stems�ha−1 increased A1500 of the lower crown by 23.5 and 17.4% at age 2 and 3�yr, respectively; and this was associated with increased foliar phosphorus concentration. Thinning reduced leaf water stress during the dry season; leaf water potential and tree growth were significantly influenced by season. It was concluded that thinning to 600�trees�ha−1 at age 2�years or to 833�trees�ha−1 at age 3�years will produce wood with the highest diameter.


This week sees the release of the Writing Programme spoken word archive ('Writers at Warwick') as a free downloadable app for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, reaching a potential audience of several billions.
This is the end result of nearly 15 years of work and I hope you enjoy the readings. I like having several of my own readings available on iPad!

Toyota FT-86 Open: sexy convertible
Toyota GT86 sports coupe started excellently. Even before the official start of sales, last year the company in Japan has received 7,000 orders for the model.
Even environmentally tolerant Europeans for the first six months of 4800 over bought "Ji-Tishok", plus another 800 copies twin brother – Subaru BRZ.

At its core, it will be a little different car. Not "street bully" and not "the king track days" and "glamorous conqueror of hearts" – both drivers and pedestrians.

Toyota made a "minivan for Sponge Bob"
Designers made this concept to draw the attention to the minivan, a segment of vehicles that has been challenged by a lingering "mom jeans" image as crossovers SUVs to stay in vogue.
Now, Toyota hopes that kids will tell their parents that minivans are cool again.
The new Sienna has a huge SpongeBob's on its face. There's even a wand out of the top and the vehicle has a built-in bubble blower. The Sienna has a blue ship's wheel. The car also has "safety equipment". There's a life ring in back.
"SpongeBob, star of the network's highest-rated animated series, has 80 million followers on Facebook", says Pam Kaufman, chief marketing officer for the network.

Appeals - Lisa DiPoala Haber, Esq.
If you lose your case in a lower court you can appeal to a higher appellate court claiming there was an error and the ruling should be reversed. This is true whether the hearing was in civil, criminal or family court.
You can also appeal from an administrative ruling, such as suspension or revocation of your driver's license by the Department of Motor Vehicles. Health insurance companies have an appeal process in place for you to use if you were denied coverage. Almost any agency has a mechanism for you to ask for a review of any decision with which you are unhappy.
Article 78 Proceedings to Challenge Administrative and Governmental Agency Determinations.
Appeals are limited to a review of the lower level ruling and the evidence in that record. With only rare exceptions, the reviewing entity accepts no new evidence. The results of appellate review vary. The reviewing entity can let the lower decision stand. It can overrule it and order an entirely new trial or hearing or it can fashion a workable remedy based on the evidence in the record.
Appeals are complicated. Not every decision that a person disagrees with is one from which an appeal can be taken. There is a limit on how long you have to appeal an adverse ruling. If you fail to file your appeal within the statutory time, you lose your right to appeal no matter how wrong the decision might have been.
There are procedural rules that must be followed, such as a limit on the number of pages you can present, how the appellate brief itself is formatted and other requirements that have nothing to do with the merits of the case.
Whether you are appealing an adverse ruling, or defending an appeal filed by the other party, you need Attorney Lisa DiPoala Haber, an experienced New York appeals lawyer, on your side.


Each year, about 9,000 kids visit the UC Agriculture and Natural Resources Elkus Ranch in Half Moon Bay for hands-on educational experiences in urban horticulture, nutrition, food safety, pest management, livestock management and food preservation, reported Sara Hayden in April 2018 issue of Half Moon Bay Magazine (the article begins on p. 16).
Hayden visited the ranch with photographer Jaime Soja when a group of preschoolers descended to explore the garden and meet the farm animals.
"They can taste and touch and smell things - feel the wool of a sheep or an egg, know where their food is from, where the clothing fiber comes from," said Kathi Baxter, UC Cooperative Extension environmental science educator at Elkus Ranch. "Ideally, kids would get the idea that space is necessary to grow food. We're hoping to plant that seed of stewardship here."
The Elkus family donated the 125-acre ranch in the 1970s as a gift for youth. The ranch's operating budget depends heavily on grants and donations.
