Colorado Governor Ritter signs bill to put more people in jail and less people in jail in Colorado.
On Tuesday Colorado Governor Bill Ritter signed legislation that requires jail sentences for those that are convicted of more than one drinking and driving offense. He also signed a bill that reduces jail time for several different drug offenses. I think the net outcome of this bill will be MORE people in jail. First, the DUI measure (as the mainstream press refers to it) will put more people that live in Colorado in jail. DUI is a very bad term to use. The bill jails people for DWAI offenses as well as DUI offenses. If a Coloradoan is convicted of two DWAIs, this legislation sends that person to jail for ten days. A Coloradoan can now spend ten days in jail for as few … Read entire article »

ABC 7 News in New York Reports on Police Quotas
Officer Adil Polanco, NYPD 41st precinct, comes clean and goes in front of the camera to talk about the practice of quotas. As a person that condemns cops because they systematically destroy the 4th and 5th amendments I have to say that I applaud officer Polanco for coming forward and standing up for the rights of New Yorkers. Oh, yes, he did get suspended and may loose his job. To all cops in New York, it is time to make a stand behind Polanco for doing what needs to be done throughout the country. Here is the video: Check out the part where the Patrol Supervisor refers to quitting “this job and become a Pizza Hut delivery man.” A Pizza Hut delivery man is a more honorable job than being … Read entire article »

What an Idiot: Governor Bill Ritter
What kind of idiot would make sweeping changes that affect the way businesses operate and expect them to implement those changes in two days? Colorado Governor Ritter is that kind of idiot. Ritter signed the nine (9) bills on Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 that take effect Monday, March 1st, 2010. That gives businesses Thursday and Friday (and Saturday and Sunday, if they can afford to pay overtime to their employees) to figure out (with a bunch … Read entire article »

Voting is Black & White: The REAL 2 party system is Democrats & Repubublicans vs. Libertarians
(blăk’ən-hwīt’, -wīt’) adj. Expressing, recognizing, or based on two mutually exclusive sets of ideas or values: black-and-white categories; a black-and-white point of view. In our two party system voting has become more black & white than ever in the past. It is called a two party system because all the power resides with the Democrats and the Republicans. Under this two party system the power of government has been and continues to expand quickly. For over 40 years libertarians have been passing around The World’s Smallest Political Quiz. The quiz has ten questions on it that, when answered, are supposed to classify the quiz-taker as Libertarian, Left-Liberal, Centrist, Right-Conservative, or Statist. In today’s political climate, having ten questions on the WORLD’S SMALLEST political quiz is overkill. Here is a political quiz that is … Read entire article »

Doug Stanhope in Denver, Colorado May 30th 2009
So, Doug Stanhope (comedy in Denver) is coming to Denver next week (May 30th at the Oriental Theater). I saw this guy on his cable special (can’t remember if it was HBO or Showtime), then went to his show last year in Denver and then to his show the NEXT day in Colorado Springs. The show in Denver was fucking excellent and funny as hell. Before the show in Denver I told several of my business clients about Stanhope and that I was going to the show. Despite my warnings that Stanhope might offend their (bullshit) religious beliefs they told me that they wanted to go. I bought them tickets, they went and they ROLLED with laughter. This guy hits the mark EVERY TIME! … Read entire article »

So You Wanna Be Rich: Bill Gates and Warren Buffett give it all away for the public good, Maybe
So, you wish you had all the money, and fame, in the world. Ever wonder why? With all that money you could buy all those things that you always wanted like better clothes, bigger house, college for the kids, better cars, maybe even some healthcare. But a few hundred million would cover all that so why would you want all that extra cash, and fame? Influence, or POWER. . . to teach the rest of us fucks what is right and set things straight, right? With all that power and cash you could prevent world hunger, stop human suffering, stop animal abuses (thanks Sarah McLachlan for your useless contribution to mankind), and make this world a better place. How sweet. There are a few—two of the richest—guys … Read entire article »

Don’t Talk to Cops
This is MUST see. NEVER talk to the police unless you have an attorney or you are very clear on what they are questioning you for. The only thing this is missing is the REAL cop in his full uniform with his GUN and HANDCUFFS ready to haul you off to jail for “not cooperating.” http://www.washingtonceasefire.net/content/view/109/45/ … Read entire article »
Michael Jackson Didn’t Fuck a Kid
I been wanting to do this one for a long time. Really, after the first time they jacked him up I wanted to write about this. Michael Jackson was accused twice, paid off the money hungry rats twice (in civil cases), and walked twice form the criminal charges. I do not think this king is any more of a kid fucker than a Chihuahua might be a horse fucker. He walked twice in a criminal justice system that usually puts people away for shit. He didn’t take a deal, he tried the charges—twice—and won. This should REALLY scare the hell out of the rest of you fucks out there. Here is the KING and some motherfucking local DA dickheads that think they are KING run this very … Read entire article »

Forgive Bob Barr, Poor Human Rights Abuser Jerk
So, a bunch of you are all up-tight about Barr and the Hitler thing. What you really do not get is the fact that Barr has committed egregious violations against human rights that should not be forgiven so quickly. There was guy (James Kevin Pope) that was just sentenced to 4,060 years for fucking some young girls. (I have to say here that I am always suspect of these convictions, maybe he did and deserves it and maybe he didn’t and he’s the one getting screwed.) That is like sentencing a guy from 2,000 BC until now. That’s a GRUDGE. As it should be if the guy was doing SOME pre-teen girls. Barr thought that the government should send millions of Americans to jail for … Read entire article »
