Christianity says, "Thou shalt not kill." Islam says, "Kill the infidels." Yet we are supposed to accept Islam as the religion of peace! NEVER. #SENDTHEMBACK

RadioShack was the last store where being confused felt useful. You’d walk in for batteries and end up standing in front of tiny drawers full of parts you didn’t understand yet. Resistors. Switches. Speaker wire. Fuses. Project kits. Adapters for problems so specific they sounded made up until somebody behind the counter nodded immediately and disappeared into aisle six. People remember the batteries. They forget the feeling. RadioShack made technology feel close enough to touch. You could buy a soldering iron, a police scanner, a bag of LEDs, a replacement remote part, a weird cable, a battery club card, or one tiny component that somehow brought the whole thing back to life. Kids built crystal radios. People repaired RC cars. Teens stripped speaker wire in garages. Some employee who looked like he had worked there since 1987 could translate your terrible explanation into exactly the part you needed. That kind of place teaches a different relationship with the world. Machines had backs and screws and wires. Things failed for reasons. You could open them. You could make mistakes. You could learn enough to stop being intimidated. Then the world changed. Screens replaced screws. Batteries got glued in. Devices got sealed. Parts disappeared. Stores stopped assuming people wanted to understand anything below the surface. People call that convenience. But there’s a reason people remember RadioShack harder than they should. It was one of the last places that made technology feel unfinished. Like normal people still had permission to participate. Now most of us carry objects more powerful than anything in that store ever sold and most of us would not even know where to begin if one stopped working.

Muslim woman in burqa reads the Quran for the first time and decides to leave Islam. “I read the whole Quran, but didn’t find a single verse about women in heaven. Women get nothing. It’s all about men.” She’s 100% right!

Stigmatizing drug use is good — let’s do more of it. A lot more.

Modi calls the holdup in issuing US work visas for Indians a "humanitarian crisis." If keeping Indians in India is a humanitarian crisis, let's help maintain that crisis! The "crisis" shows how dependent India is on exporting its citizens to receive remittances.

OPS Road Safety & District Traffic Units
Nothing like a Stunt Driving charge with your mother (vehicle owner) in the passenger seat; as was the case earlier today when an OPS Road Safety Unit officer observed a vehicle doing 166 in the 100km/h zone on the 417 near March Rd. Suspension, court date & impound.

Islamic Mosque Permit Rejected in South Carolina! Local residents of Lancaster County have successfully blocked the permit to build a new mosque on Harrisburg Road. The County Council unanimously rejected the proposal. People in the area no longer want Sharia law, Islamic expansion, or cultural infiltration in their community.

China is cracking down hard on Islam! Mosques have been locked up with padlocks and shut down. The ones that haven’t been closed have been converted into cafés, bars, nightclubs, and tourist shops. Muslims there can’t even pray in public places anymore. They are completely banned from carrying out any Islamic activities at all.

A trolley is about to hit 5 people laying on the track You can redirect the car, but the other track has not yet reached regulatory approval or completed its 1 year environmental testing period, so operating a train car on it is a violation of transit regulations What do you do?

While thousands sleep on the streets in Victoria, BC, the CEOs and top execs at major homeless shelters like Our Place Society and Victoria Cool Aid Society are living large on $160,000 to $200,000+ salaries — straight from the public trough.
