College Censorship

Falcon:

Here’s an article from Townhall about why Fordham University banned Ann Coulter from appearing but decided to host Peter Singer, a known advocate for bestiality and infanticide to appear.

When the Fordham University College Republicans wanted to host conservative author Ann Coulter on campus, they were met with a disapproving statement from their school president, Rev. Joseph M. McShane, although he added he would not bar Coulter from speaking.  In the end, the group cancelled Coulter’s appearance.

But according to The Daily Caller, not long after the disagreement, Fordham agreed to host Peter Singer, a known advocate for bestiality and infanticide.  In his essay entitled “Heavy Petting,” Singer approves of intercourse with animals, stating. “sex across the species barrier…ceases to be an offence [sic] to our status and dignity as human beings.”

This guy appearing at Fordham is a classic example of what’s wrong with American higher education and how it warps the minds of the young.

Iowa’s Once Famed Pheasant Population

Falcon:

While living up on the northern boundary of Clinton Country in the Preston, Iowa area I noticed a strange habit that obviously has contributed to the decline of pheasant in Iwa, I also saw this in the Reinbeck area back in the 90’s.

Farmers are now cutting the ditches just as they cut their lawns destroying cover that was once used by the pheasant.  I noticed in Clinton County the country crews were knocking down all the trees along the fence and hedgerows and when I asked them why they were doing it I was told, “Farmers are complaining the spots of shade on the fields are causing them to lose crops.”  In Clinton County they just knocked down the trees with a back hoe splintering them something terrible leaving the landscape looking like a bomb had gone off.

Even in Des Moines County people living in the country are cutting the ditches to the extent they do their lawns eradicating a favorite place for Iowa’s once famed pheasant population to seek cover in.

I always wondered why a farmer would waste fuel to cut the ditches a quarter mile either side of this home and in some cases much further than a quarter mile.

The human population has done much to restrict the growth of the pheasant population as has anything Mother Nature has thrown at them.

Democrat Mayor Takes NRA’s Advice; Puts Armed Police In NJ Schools

Click Here: It’s smart for Mayor Hornik to let the world know his schools are now protected by firearms. Unlike “gun-free zones” that advertise a building full of sitting ducks, an “armed zone” can work as a deterrent.

Donald Kaul should be committed to a mental institute

Falcon:

Donald Kaul should be committed to a mental institute provided Iowa has one left.  People like him are always the ones that not only shoot off their mouths but eventually end up threatening people with their radical thinking and then start shooting bullets.  This guy is obviously a nut case and belongs locked up to protect the general public.  After all it’s people like him that do the mass killings when they don’t get their selfish ways.

Chicago’s Draconian Gun Laws get 1.5 People Killed Every Day

Click Here: Chicago is an extremely violent city because criminals possess the largest portion of guns there. And in 2012 alone, 1.5 people died each day after being shot by bad people with guns. One and a half people a day die in Chicago where Obama’s gun control solutions are already in place.

Death Threats in Burlington & Des Moines

“Cantankerous liberal columnist Donald Kaul retired earlier this year. But the  Newtown school shooting brought out all his ugliness. He proposed a new liberal  agenda: repeal the Second Amendment, declare the NRA a terrorist organization  and make membership illegal, and well, make violent threats to Republican  leaders and NRA members. The Des  Moines Register and The HawkEye published this junk.”
