  • A Beating and Racial Slurs – but No Hate-crime Charges

    By Selwyn Duke Ah, the left-wing capacity for rationalization knows no bounds.  While we’re told that even substantive criticism of Barack Obama is driven by the hatefulness the left has dubbed “racism,” a racial attack by three black teenagers on two white men in Philadelphia a couple of Mondays ago is , somehow, not. Consider…

  • How You Can Tell if a Candidate Is Serious About Ending Illegal Migration

    By Selwyn Duke Imagine that your son has a habit of sprinkling copious amounts of bird seed and setting up impromptu birdbaths in your yard. You then notice that your property is starting to seem like an aviary, and, as beautiful as the birds are, they’re becoming bothersome. So you approach your husband and ask…

  • Penn State’s Sex-abuse Scandal Far From Unique

    By Selwyn Duke The Penn State University sex-abuse scandal certainly seems unique. College-football defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky (shown at left) could have been investigated as early as 1995 for abusing young boys, but instead was allowed to commit his crimes for another 10 years. School athletic director Tim Curley and senior vice president for business…

  • FBI Warns Criminal Gangs Infiltrating U.S. Military

    By Selwyn Duke A troubling FBI assessment has found that criminal gangs are not only expanding in U.S. cities and towns, but also where they could perhaps undermine national security most: the U.S. military. Reporting on the matter, ABC News writes: While FBI and law enforcement officials do not have estimates on the number of…

  • Political Persecution in Maricopa County

    By Selwyn Duke When we think of political persecution, places such as Tiananmen Square may come to mind.  Increasingly, however, this tool of tyranny is coming to our shores – and it is not made in China.  It is, in the case I’ll discuss today, made in Maricopa County. Every avid news reader knows about…

  • “The Black US Attorney Has Common Cause with the Black Criminal”

    By Selwyn Duke According to Department of Justice whistleblower J. Christian Adams, AG Eric Holder has a certain something in his wallet.  It is a quotation – and he has carried it for decades.  It essentially says, to quote Adams, “Blackness is more important than anything, and the black US attorney has common cause with…

  • Statists Want to Force Priests to Reveal Confessions

    By Selwyn Duke First there were efforts to compel Catholic hospitals to perform abortions. Now statists in some nations want to force priests to violate the confidentiality of confession for, ostensibly, the purpose of uncovering sexual abuse. Adam Shaw at American Thinker provides some background and then explains the recent proposals, writing: [O]ne of the most…

  • The Myth of White Privilege

    By Selwyn Duke Something must be wrong. My finances are in shambles; mainstream newspapers won’t publish my pieces; and, no matter how much I try to convince Fox News that they need male eye candy as well, they just won’t give me a show. Then I gaze into the mirror at my alabaster complexion and…

  • Three-monkey Authorities Ignoring another Black-on-white “Hate Crime”

    By Selwyn Duke Like the three monkeys who see, hear and speak no evil, our authorities seem intent on ignoring the true nature of yet another black-on-white racial attack.  In the New York City subway this past Sunday, 29-year-old Jason Fordell was attacked by a group of black men who taunted him for being white.…

  • Woman Faces Jail Time for Planting Vegetables on Own Property

    By Selwyn Duke Vegetable gardens may be popping on abandoned land in Detroit, Michigan, but nearby Oak Park apparently likes broccoli as much as does George H.W. Bush. At least, that is, when it’s growing in a homeowner’s front yard. Resident Julie Bass is learning this the hard way. After Bass’s lawn was torn up…
