Muslim Outrage: Is The Violence Justified?

muslim-violenceI found it ironic that in a show of open-mindness, the Arab-catering Western governments sided with the thin-skinned Muslims over the caricature of Muhammad, when other gods are ridiculed every day and when Arabs want to annihilate Judaism!

A few Muslims in Europe are abusing the Democratic freedom and “hijacking” the freedom of speech they found, to violently condemn a speech they consider offensive, in another case of freedom of speech against law and order, and civil opposition. Just remember France and the headscarves!

What have happened to the many Muslims that have chosen to leave their dictatorships of Islam for the shores of our jobless Western Europe or America, and the generous benefits we provide their extended families? Now they want to shape the policies of these secular countries into a more Islamic-compatible system and want us to bear the whole weight of their integration. [Read more…]

Are Your Rights Slowly Being Eroded?

freedom-of-speechIn the December 2005 newsletter Eric Chevrevuil discussed the 1st Amendment and freedom of speech, as a freedom the U.S. Constitution was created to guarantee. The discussion indicates Eric, along with many Americans, doesn’t get it. The Constitution was created to place limits on government, not the citizenry. Take the 1st Amendment; “Congress shall make no law; or abridging the freedom of speech.” No confusion there. No allusion to kinds of speech, just speech. Yet, those like Eric, minority activist groups, and activist judges, revel in exactly that, lofty discussion about definitions, applications and interpretations of free speech.

Oliver Wendell Holms’ claim in 1919 that any speech is not free speech is in of itself contrary to the 1st Amendment. Of course, yelling “fire” in a crowded theater is an obvious rare example of unprotected speech due to the inherent danger caused by the immediate result of stampede. However, there are no inherent dangers in offensive speech and the questions posed by Eric make for nice debate but is irrelevant. The framers of the Constitution indulged in these debates and carefully chose the words in the Constitution to avoid confusion and multiple interpretations. What Eric and like minds seem not to realize is that offensive and unpopular speech is exactly what was being protected, in spite of the so called “French” saying, one’s freedom stops when it infringes on another’s.

Human Trafficking: Marketing Sex

human_trafficking2Human trafficking is one of the ugliest and most preventable man-made disasters in our world today. Many of the cases worldwide involve the massive sexual brutalization upon millions of the most marginalized groups in society- children, woman, refugees, ethnic minorities, and the poor in the most horrific encounters imaginable. The appalling epidemic of human trafficking unfortunately only flourishes in areas that it is tolerated by the local law enforcement. The multi-billion dollar industry of forced abduction, rape, and false imprisonment can only thrive if the perpetrators hold out the victims of these crimes to the general public so that customers can locate the people and “services”. This is a simple historical marketing strategy: If the customers don’t know the service exists, sales will probably be limited or non-existent.

Brothel keepers and pimps cannot hide their victims and to make a great return on their investment, they must keep their service open to the public for continuous long periods of time. How do we keep a public open door policy on an illegal (almost world-wide) felony act? This is generally facilitated by bringing the government or local law enforcement into the business by sharing profits of the corrupt business for the exchange of protection against local governing laws. “Sex trafficking requires the commission of multiple felonies in a way that is held out openly to the public”(G.Haugen, 2003).
