."Ask me, 'Should we be reuniting 2,000 kids with their families?' Ask me that," he shot back. "Yes, we should. I don't care about fucking Sarah Sanders. Reunite the fucking kids with their families, and then we'll talk about Sarah Sanders and her fucking dinners."



This is NOT the way to get your point across. Why can't you speak like a man with manors?

'Boys will be boys' sweatshirt pulled from stores after being accused of sending a 'sexist' message

Scroll back up to restore default view.
Australian sleepwear brand Peter Alexander has pulled a “boys will be boys” children’s sweatshirt from its stores following backlash from parents saying the slogan had sexist connotations.
Melbourne mother Bridie Harris noticed the boys’ gray pajama top while out shopping last week and took to social media to complain.
Boy won’t be boys,” she wrote on the Peter Alexander Sleepwear Facebook page. “Boys will be held accountable for their actions.
“I hate to see an Australian store, who makes such great PJs, put such a sexist statement on a T-shirt intended for young boys. Excusing boys of their behavior is not a step in the right direction. It’s 2018.”

She said the slogan promoted a culture that allows men “to get away with stuff” because of their gender.
“It gives them an excuse for inappropriate behavior,” Harris said in an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper. “If a girl hurts someone or does something, you never hear someone that says girls will be girls.
“As kids, I get it’s little tiny things, like rough play, but it sets [them] up for a culture where they can get way with anything. I thought it was a long-resolved discussion.”
Harris’s views were echoed by many other people on social media who agreed the children’s sweatshirt also struck them as offensive.
One woman called the top “cringe worthy,” while another said she was “so disappointed that this is something that [the brand] would promote for children.”
A Melbourne mother complained about the top, saying the slogan was sexist. (Photo: via Facebook)
However, many accused Harris of being overly sensitive and did not see a problem with the top.
“Omg why get rid of it!” one commenter wrote. “There is nothing wrong with a old saying. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it.”
Another mother said she was disappointed she could not buy the top for her boys.
“I would like to buy the ‘boys will be boys’ PJs,” she wrote. “I have two boys and would like them to know that’s it’s OK to be boys.”
“The pajamas don’t say, ‘I’m a boy, I’ll go punch another boy or harass someone and that is okay because I am a boy,’” read another comment. 
The tops have been removed from Peter Alexander Sleepwear stores. (Photo: Courtesy Peter Alexander Sleepwear)
Boys WILL be boys!” one man wrote. “Making boys feel like they can’t be boys anymore because apparently it’s part of rape culture and they all turn into murderers and rapists anyway.”
A Peter Alexander Sleepwear spokesperson responded to the thread, confirming the brand’s decision to remove the item from its stores.  
“Hi Bridie. I  just wanted to update you and again thank you for taking the time to get in touch with us and bringing this to our attention,” the post began. “We do not tolerate the behavior that is being associated with this slogan. In light of your feedback, we have decided to withdraw this item from sale.”
Peter Alexander Sleepwear has been contacted for comment.

If they keep erasing history ( statues, names of shools, books)......than they need to erase ALL history.



Yep....NOTHING bad happened to ANYONE.


There, I did it...... it is all gone !!!


Now everyone shut the hell up and start over.

Sick and tired of whining but people who don't even know the facts.

History is gone.... now act like an adult.


Do we have to erase the name of Laura Ingalls Wilder to ‘fix’ history? And who will be next?




Do we have to erase the name of Laura Ingalls Wilder to ‘fix’ history? And who will be next?

Should writers who wrote long ago, describing life in the past, be held to 21st century standards of political correctness? The question has arisen many times – most recently about Laura Ingalls Wilder, who was born in 1867 and died in 1957. She is best known for writing the “Little House on the Prairie” children’s books, which became the basis for a popular TV series that aired in the 1970s and 80s.
In recent years, the question of judging past writing by today’s standards has come up dealing with Mark Twain’s use of a racist term for black people in “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” claims that Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice” was anti-Semitic, and hostility that Ernest Hemingway expressed toward homosexuals. It also came up with many other examples of works of literature that perpetuated negative stereotypes about women and just about every minority group – stereotypes that many people find offensive today.
The Association of Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, voted Saturday to rename its Laura Ingalls Wilder Award. The award had previously “honored an author or illustrator whose books, published in the United States, have made, over a period of years, a significant and lasting contribution to children's literature through books.” After Wilder’s name was removed from the award the line “that demonstrate integrity and respect for all children's lives and experiences” was added to that description.

Presumably, Wilder had failed to demonstrate integrity and respect for all children’s lives and experiences in her books written about 19th century America.

Wilder’s name was stripped from the award because her work contains “expressions of stereotypical attitudes inconsistent with ALSC’s core values of inclusiveness, integrity and respect, and responsiveness,” the association said.
Do we want a revisionist history of how groups were targeted for discrimination in the past? Or do want literature that holds up a mirror to the past and reflects the reality of the time – even when the reality was harsh and ugly?
Wilder’s “Little House on the Prairie” series of books for children were about her upbringing on the frontier. The books tell a story of a family’s survival in a new and harsh world. The Ingalls family worried about having enough food. They buried children. They spoke and acted like many other people did in the 1800s.

Wilder did not gloss over her family’s interactions with Native Americans or African-Americans. Both these groups were the victims of racism and racist stereotypes. Wilder described the world as it was – just as Mark Twain described the racism of the time and the horrors of slavery in “Huckleberry Finn.”

Do we want a revisionist history of how groups were targeted for discrimination in the past? Or do want literature that holds up a mirror to the past and reflects the reality of the time – even when the reality was harsh and ugly?

Wilder’s books reflected reality.

Even the American Library Association acknowledges that Wilder’s books were not at all controversial when she wrote them in the 1900s.

“Her works reflect mainstream, although certainly not universal, cultural attitudes toward Indigenous people and people of color during the times in which she lived and during the era in which the award was established,” the association said of Wilder. But it added that concern that her books “have been deeply painful to many readers” is too great.

The only disadvantage the ALSC could find with changing the name of the award was that in changing it, it would have to publicly reference Wilder’s name, which might upset people.
“The disadvantage in changing the name is that the old name (the Laura Ingalls Wilder Award), which has painful associations for many, must continue to be referenced by ALSC in the interest of communication and transparency regarding the change,” the association said.

The association apparently never considered that it was venturing on the slippery slope of redacting history. History is filled with far greater monsters than Laura Ingalls Wilder. If the group can’t even mention her name, what other names must the group erase from history?

As Amelia Hamilton notes on the Red State website: “It will now simply be called the Children’s Literature Legacy Award, probably because every single person they could think of is problematic, or will be at some point in the future.”

If we continue to impose our modern-day sensibilities on historical figures we’ll eventually fail to celebrate any of them. No one will be woke enough; everyone will need to be erased. Laura Ingalls Wilder is just the latest to go.

Teens ran over elderly woman, then ‘dined and dashed’ at Denny’s: cops




Teens ran over elderly woman, then ‘dined and dashed’ at Denny’s: cops



Two Texas teenagers are accused of running over an elderly woman after her decomposing body was found inside her Houston garage.

Police said they received a call on Friday that a strange smell was coming from inside Clara Jeanne Barna’s garage. When they searched the home, officials found the 75-year-old woman’s body decomposing, and her 2003 Buick LeSabre was missing.

A search for the missing vehicle led police to target David Paul Jones and Teijhon “T.J.” Shannon, both 17, who they said took the car while attempting to do a “dine and dash” at a local Denny’s restaurant.

According to police, on June 17 the teenagers were reportedly confronted by owners of a stolen pickup truck at the parking lot of a nearby fast food restaurant. After the owners accused the teens of stealing the vehicle, they fled the eatery on foot.

The duo ran through nearby neighborhoods before spotting Barna near her vehicle.

Police said the woman got out to close her garage door when the teenagers approached her, grabbed her and violently took her keys. Shannon reportedly held down Barna while Jones backed out of the driveway, running over Barna and Shannon in the process.

Barna suffered major injuries including a fractured skull and broken back. Shannon suffered injuries to his legs, however, was able to help pull Barna back into the garage before the teenagers fled in her car.

On June 20 – two days before police found Barna’s body – surveillance video showed two males entering a Denny’s restaurant near the woman’s home after parking a similar Buick at the eatery.

Employees told ABC 13 that the teens ordered about $50 worth of food and then tried to “dine and dash.” The teenagers reportedly asked the manager not to call the cops and tried to bribe him with a cellphone.

Police say the manager wrote down the license plate, which they described as a “valuable clue” in connecting the teenagers to Barna’s death, the Houston Chronicle reported. The newspaper said it’s unclear whether the manager called the cops.

Jones was arrested by police on Saturday, June 23 and Shannon was arrested on Monday. The two teenagers reportedly confessed their roles in Barna’s murder. They were both charged with capital murder.

Oakvale Drive investigation (June 22, 2018/FOX Carolina)
Charles Dogan in bond court (June 25, 2018/FOX Carolina)
PIEDMONT, SC (FOX Carolina) - The Greenville County Sheriff's Office said they have charged two men in connection with human remains found at a home last week.

Deputies recovered the remains in an investigation into the disappearance of Stacy Davidson Carmack, who was last seen on Oakvale Drive between May 28 and 29.

Investigators with the Greenville County Violent Crimes Unit said they have reason to think foul play is involved in her disappearance. Carmack is a resident of Anderson County, but she was last seen in Greenville County so the case is under Greenville County deputies' jurisdiction.

On Friday, the Greenville County Coroner's Office was called to a home on Oakvale Drive in relation to the case. The coroner said human remains were discovered at the address.

The Greenville County Sheriff's Office also said forensic evidence was being collected at the home.
The Greenville County Coroner's Office confirmed the remains belong to 45-year-old Stacy Carmack, however her cause and manner of death are still pending investigation.

Deputies announced Monday that 60-year-old Charles Alexander Dogan was charged in connection with the case. Dogan is accused of burning Carmack's body at the home he shares with his brother, Tony Nolan Dogan.

According to arrest warrants, Charles Dogan is accused of also lying and providing misleading statements to investigators. The warrant states the remains were moved from the home to an unknown location to conceal the death.

Charles Dogan is charged with desecration of human remains, criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice. He has been taken into custody at the Greenville County Detention Center.

Tony Dogan has been charged with criminal conspiracy and obstruction. He was arrested later on Monday. At a hearing Monday night, Tony Dogan's bond was set at $15,000 for the charges. Dogan will be under house arrest and have a GPS ankle monitor as a condition of his bond.

The death remains under investigation and the human remains are being examined by the medical examiner.

FAYETTEVILLE, NC (AP) - A North Carolina woman has been arrested and is accused of trying to poison her two sons with cream soda laced with lighter fluid.
The Fayetteville Observer reports 34-year-old Octavia Latosh Robinson of Fayetteville has been charged with two counts each of distributing food containing noxious or deleterious material and misdemeanor child abuse.
At a court appearance Tuesday, Robinson asked a judge to terminate her parental rights. The newspaper reports she later began yelling and cursing during the hearing in the Cumberland County jail.
Judge Beth Keever said it was too soon to decide on parental rights and asked that the public defender's office represent the woman. Keever also ordered a psychiatric evaluation.
She's accused of giving the poisoned soda to her 6-year-old and 10-year-old sons Sunday. One of the boys tasted it and they went to a neighbor, who called police. The boys were released from a hospital.

NBA legend Oscar Robertson asks 'where are the white athletes?' when injustices are happening





NBA legend Oscar Robertson asks 'where are the white athletes?' when injustices are happening

NBA legend Oscar Robertson received the Lifetime Achievement Award on Monday night during the NBA Awards show in California and used his platform to praise players for their social activism.
Robertson, 79, said he was happy to see LeBron James and other NBA stars take a stance on societal issues and called on white athletes to follow in their footsteps, according to ESPN.

“I think that as people evolve, and things are changing so much in the world with social media and whatnot, these people are young people who have families," Robertson said. "They've seen some injustice in the streets or wherever it might be, it might be almost anywhere, and they're stepping up. But the only thing that really bothers me is ‘where are the white athletes’ when this is happening?”
Robertson added that injustices in the world weren’t just a “black athlete problem” and that there appears to be a “system where you don’t want players to say anything at all.”
Robertson, a 12-time All-Star point guard and former MVP, grew up in a segregated housing project in Indianapolis. He said during his playing time players couldn’t speak out like they could now.
“But now I hope they all, the whites and the blacks get together. Even with the football. What do you think is going to happen when the union gets involved with the owners?” he

Laura Ingalls Wilder's name pulled from library award over 'stereotypical attitudes' in her popular books (Little house on the Prairie) ......History...... Gone




 You can't pick and choose just a couple things to wipe out of OUR history. WIPE IT ALL.



Laura Ingalls Wilder's name pulled from library award over 'stereotypical attitudes' in her popular books

Laura Ingalls Wilder's name is set to be removed from a major children's book award after concerns were raised about the "Little House on the Prairie" author's depiction of certain races in the early-to-mid 20th century.
The Association of Library Service to Children's (ALSC) board voted unanimously on Saturday to rename the "Laura Ingalls Wilder Award" as the "Children’s Literature Legacy Award."

A LIBRARY WITHOUT BOOKS? UNIVERSITIES PURGING DUSTY VOLUMES
The association, which took the vote at its board meeting in New Orleans, said the vote "was greeted by a standing ovation by the audience in attendance."
Wilder is best known for her "Little House on the Prairie" novels, which the ALSC has stated "includes expressions of stereotypical attitudes inconsistent with ALSC's core values" based on Wilder's portrayal of black people and Native Americans.
The first award was given to Wilder in 1954. The ALSC, which is based in Chicago, says her work continues to be published and read but her "legacy is complex" and "not universally embraced."
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Woman says 'I hate white people' before attacking two passengers on bus: police



Woman says 'I hate white people' before attacking two passengers on bus: police

A black woman proclaimed  “I hate white people” before attacking two fellow passengers on a bus on Monday in Maryland, police said.
Kimberly Jordan, 24, of Silver Spring, Md., was charged with “racial harassment, obstructing and second-degree assault due to her alleged offensive and physically painful antics,” WJLA reported.

Jordan was on the Ride On bus, Montgomery County’s public transportation system, when she allegedly stared at two passengers and said, “I hate white people.” She then reportedly struck a white female passenger in her face before smacking a white male passenger in his face, police said.

The female passenger suffered scratches on her palms while the male had a “long cut” to his nose.
Jordan fled the scene but officers were able to catch up with her about a quarter of a mile away. She told authorities the female passenger hit first but the bus’ surveillance video showed a different story.

Jordan said she had not taken her medication before the incident but police told her that was not an excuse for her behavior.

“I know,” Jordan responded.

The driver of the bus told officers he saw the incident and heard Jordan say, “I hate white people.”
Jordan has a lengthy arrest record which included theft, destruction of property, domestic violence, assault and burglary charges, according to court documents.

She was slated to appear in court on July 12 for a preliminary hearing.

Over 500 guns found at convicted felon's California home, officials say





Over 500 guns found at convicted felon's California home, officials say

Officials confiscated guns, ammunition, computers and other evidence.
(CNN)The first time the sheriff's department searched one convicted felon's home, they say they found 432 firearms. When they went back a day later, they found another 91 guns hidden in the residence.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department in Palmdale responded to a tip from a neighbor of Agua Dulce resident Manuel Fernandez, 60.
Some of the guns found in Agua Dulce.
"This case is a testament to the community's involvement in reducing crime and taking guns out of the hands of criminals," said Sheriff Jim McDonnell.
Fernandez was arrested on charges including being a felon in possession of firearms, possession of an assault rifle, being a felon in possession of ammunition and possession of large capacity magazines, gun accessories that are used to hold up to 100 rounds of ammunition. In California, any magazine that holds more than 10 rounds is considered "large capacity."
Because of Fernandez's criminal record, he should not have been allowed to buy guns, and officials said it is unclear how he acquired the weapons. An investigation has begun that includes the sheriff's department, the California Department of Justice and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, which will track where the guns were purchased.
Officials said all the weapons belonged to Fernandez. Detectives also seized computers, cell phones and hard drives they said Fernandez may have used to conduct transactions for the firearms.
Authorities said they also found 30 guns at the home of a female associate of Fernandez. The woman was not at the residence and has not yet been found.
Fernandez is free on bond with a court date scheduled for July.
CNN has reached out to Fernandez's attorney for comment.

Free cash for everyone? Stockton, Calif.'s mayor plans to see if it works ( Pass this on)

Free cash for everyone? Stockton, Calif.'s mayor plans to see if it works

 


As a kid growing up in Stockton, California, a little extra money would've meant the world to Michael Tubbs' family.

Tubbs' mother worked long hours as a cashier at a Discovery Zone and still had to borrow from check cashing places to get by. "If we had $300 a month, life would be less stressful, or we could move into another neighborhood," Tubbs says. "Maybe she would've been able to go back to school and get her BA, or pursue a passion." 

Today, Tubbs is Stockton's 27-year-old mayor. Last week, he announced the launch of an experimental program that will give people like his mom about $500 a month, with no strings attached. 

Stockton will likely become the first city in the nation to test out a version of universal basic income, an economic system that would regularly provide all residents enough money to cover basic expenses, with no conditions or restrictions.
stockton basic income
Stockton's mayor Michael Tubbs is spearheading one of the nation's first basic income experiments.
Stockton hopes to launch its program next year and enroll several hundred of the city's residents for at least a couple of years, depending on the availability of funding.



The concept of universal basic income — or UBI — has been around for decades. Martin Luther King advocated for it in 1967 to create a minimum standard of living. Up until recently, it has mostly been a subject of discussion among academics. But universal basic income has started to gain traction as poverty has grown and fears of automation killing jobs have mounted.

Large-scale trials began this year in Finland and Canada to test whether the program improves outcomes like health and employment.



In the U.S., the movement's epicenter is Silicon Valley, where inequality is stark and labor-saving technologies like self-driving cars seem just around the corner. Tech leaders, from Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg to Tesla's Elon Musk, have endorsed the idea as insurance against a jobless future.

Now, some of them are putting serious money behind it. YCombinator, the tech incubator known for minting high-profile startups, is hosting academics who'll research the idea using a control group and a random selection of approximately 3,000 participants in Oakland, California starting next year.

Meanwhile, a recently launched non-profit called the Economic Security Project has committed $1 million to the Stockton effort, with funding from donors that include Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes.

"There was not significant money in the space before" these groups got involved, says longtime advocate Jim Pugh, a robotics PhD who runs a tech and analytics firm that serves progressive causes. "It was definitely a significant uptick."

Rather than a research paper, Stockton is planning a media campaign featuring program participants talking about their experiences. "Alongside the data, we need stories," says Natalie Foster, a co-founder of the Economic Security Project.

Backers hope larger cities and states will eventually adopt universal basic income programs, much like they've passed higher minimum wages and paid family leave laws while federal action has stalled. The hope is that, pressure would build to take the program nationwide.

There are some wrinkles in this plan, however.

In its purest form, every American would receive a basic income, which some estimates peg at about $10,000 per year. In the aggregate, that would add trillions to the budget annually.

Policymakers could lighten the burden by scrapping the rest of the U.S.'s targeted anti-poverty programs, like the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (known as food stamps) and Medicaid
Related: Global unemployment to hit 200 million as wages stagnate
That approach has attracted support from libertarians, who see a single-payment safety net as less bureaucratic and more market-friendly than the current alphabet soup of government programs.

Conservative political scientist Charles Murray, known for his "bell curve" theory about the relationship between intelligence and income, is among UBI's leading proponents.

But many on the left see the idea as a Trojan horse for eliminating benefits that currently lift millions of people out of poverty.

"The risk is high that under any UBI that could conceivably gain traction politically, tens of millions of poor people would likely end up worse off," wrote Robert Greenstein, the president of the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, in a blog post last month. 
 
Left-leaning supporters insist that universal basic income should be an add-on to the existing safety net, not a replacement. But that assurance hasn't firmed up support across the aisle.

Joe Biden, former Obama Council of Economic Advisors chair Jason Furman, and Center for American Progress president Neera Tanden have all opposed the idea for another reason: They say giving people enough money to live on will drive them out of the workforce, and that having a job is essential for emotional health and social status.

Basic income proponents disagree.

"That seems to rest on a thin theory of how one develops a work ethic — that it takes either hunger or suffering or poverty or fear," says political scientist and Economic Security Project co-founder Dorian Warren. A recent review of decades of research on basic income-like programs in the U.S. and Canada found that, in most cases, participants reduce their work hours only slightly.

Within a couple of years, the Stockton experiment may shed more light on that question. Tubbs thinks that participants might use the extra income to take a break from work in order to advance their careers through education, or invest in their kids.

"My constituents in Stockton are incredibly resourceful, intelligent and hardworking," he says. "And oftentimes all they need is an opportunity."
