Rumble Strips|You have been warned!

We don’t even have ObamaCare yet and there is already health care rationing:

Florida health officials are drawing up guidelines that recommend barring patients with incurable cancer, end-stage multiple sclerosis and other conditions from being admitted to hospitals if the state is overwhelmed by flu cases.

Too old? Too sick? sorry. Here’s a hospice referral

I don’t have any extra money laying around right now but in the event of ObamaCare I’m thinking stock in hospice companies will be an excellent bet.

Way too many. I used to have a lot of respect for police officers but now I think the cops are out of control, drunk with power derived from the oppressive Madd Mothers and the failed War on Drugs. I’m convinced the vast majority of America would be better off with about 70% fewer cops. If the types who are drawn to being cops feel they absolutely must be a cop, they can transfer to a Mexican border town or to the inner cities where they are really needed and will definitely earn their pay. I bet a dollar the vast majority would choose to find work in another profession.

This outrageous story out of Arizona proves one of my long-standing mottos: Never call the cops for anything.

Homeowner shot by police alleges conspiracy to cover mistake

Tony Arambula is seeking $5.75 million in damages for himself and his family after he was shot by police on September 17, 2008 when officers responded to a call about an intruder inside his central Phoenix home.

Arambula called 911 and told police he was holding the intruder at gunpoint.

As officers arrived, Arambula’s wife Lesley said she told them her husband was inside the house holding a gun on the intruder.

“I told them my husband was inside, he was the one with the gun,” she said Tuesday.

The officers entered the house with a shout of “Police!”

Almost immediately afterward, Phoenix police Officer Brian Lilly shot Arambula in the back.

And for good measure Lilly shot him again once he was on the ground with a gunshot wound to the back. Fucking moron. Coward. How does such an imbecile get to be a cop in the first place and how many imbeciles such as Brian Lilly are there on every police force in America? A lot I am thinking. When you are talking to a cop there is a good chance you are talking to a fucking moron who would shoot you in the back the first chance they got.

Lets start getting rid of some cops and require that every citizen own and be able to use a firearm. If you can not afford a gun, one will be issued to you. And let’s quit wasting so much money on cops.

This audio/video clip must be a fake or some kind of joke. Liberals never tell the truth about the outcomes of their leftist policies.

“We’re going to have to, if you’re very old, we’re not going to give you all that technology and all those drugs for the last couple of years of your life to keep you maybe going for another couple of months. It’s too expensive…so we’re going to let you die.”

A six year old sent to reform school for bringing his cub scout utensil to school? An Eagle Scout suspended for 20 days, diminishing his bright future, for having a survival kit locked in the trunk of his car? What nonsense is this? Obviously a wide-spread attack on the Boy Scouts.

Lets have a National Bring a Knife to School Day so we can see how serious these fuckwit school administrators are about zero tolerance. School administrators are a bunch of damn bullies with no common sense whose little socialist agendas are more important than the kids they are supposed to be educating. Schools would be safer if every kid was given a knife and 80% of the administrators were sent to reform school, then fired.

It’s a laugher, no doubt. I wonder if nuclear war breaks out in the middle east will he have to give it back.

“Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world’s attention and given its people hope for a better future,” Thorbjoern Jagland, chairman of the Nobel Committee said. “In the past year Obama has been a key person for important initiatives in the U.N. for nuclear disarmament and to set a completely new agenda for the Muslim world and East-West relations.”

It’s was purely symbolic choice since Obama was nominated for the prize only two weeks after taking office. They could have just as easily awarded the poster.

By nominating Obama prior to Feb 1, the Nobel committee was hedging just to be sure they had the Obama option available come award time. Astonishingly, in the face of failure on every front they give the prize to him anyway. Why? Nothing tangible, only ideological.

Rather than recognizing concrete achievement, the 2009 prize appeared intended to support initiatives that have yet to bear fruit: reducing the world stock of nuclear arms, easing American conflicts with Muslim nations and strengthening the U.S. role in combating climate change.

…and health care. If the truth were to be known, the award was probably bought and paid for, fair and square, Chicago style, a la Blagojevich.

Because of his Marxist ideology, time will prove that Obama either failed or made worse every issue he tries to address. For one his policies are way to left-wing for America and two, his extraordinary arogance makes him inept at his job, and finally his ideology has been proven a failure historically.

The iWatch program will have a handy-dandy toll free number you can call and report your neighbors. In case you are a retard, here is the list of suspicious stuff of which you should be wary:

• If you smell chemicals or other fumes.
• If you see someone wearing clothes that are too big and too heavy for the season.
• If you see strangers asking about building security.
• If you see someone purchasing supplies or equipment that could be used to make bombs.

Especially watch: government buildings, mass gatherings, schools and public transportation. It’s all really just common sense, isn’t it?

“It’s really just common sense types of things,” Bratton said.

The only thing that’s not common sense is setting up a government program for stuff that is simple common sense. Someone with some simple common sense might think there is an alternative motive to the iWatch program. Americans are especially sensitive to programs that are designed for people to rat out their neighbors. A bit too Marxist for us.

Common sense also tells most of us that the main threat we face and the one for which everyone is alert is Islamic terrorists. But the most important thing that you must NOT notice is whether your suspicious character looks like a damn Islamic terrorist. There are safeguards built into the program to ensure that this doesn’t happen.

If someone reports something based on race or ethnicity, the police will not accept the report, and someone will explain to the caller why that is not an indicator of suspicious behavior, McNamara said.

I love the part about explaining it to them. I wonder what happens if the suspicious, terrorist-looking character goes on to blow up a building and kills hundreds or thousands of innocent Americans? Remember how bad everyone was trying to hang the blame for the 9/11 attacks on someone, especially someone in the Bush administration? I do. You fuckers are going to get hung out to dry if a suspicious character report isn’t taken due to retards without any common sense working on a common sense hotline.

The few domestic terrorists acting in the Muslim cause are a statistical anomaly. By any measurement the people we are looking for will be young Muslim men with beards and will have a look of hate and disdain in their eyes. They may stink but may or may not smell like chemicals or be seen purchasing bomb-building material.

Nonetheless… do not report these guys unless you actually see them building or planting a bomb.

Most wanted terrorists

The ACLU take the right position for the wrong reason. Of course they are worried about the Muslims:

But American Civil Liberties Union policy counsel Mike German, a former FBI agent who worked on terrorism cases, said the indicators are all relatively common behaviors. And he suspects people will fall back on personal biases and preconceived stereotypes of what a terrorist looks like when making the decision to report someone to the police.

“That just plays into the negative elements of society and doesn’t really help the situation,” German said.

Aren’t you glad Mike German is no longer at the FBI working on terrorist cases?

Seems to me like personal biases and stereotypes are a big part of what makes up what we call “common sense.” Admittedly, some people’s biases and stereotypes are based upon cultural ignorance but I like to think that most are based upon life experiences. But common sense doesn’t apply when the government sets up a program designed for something that is described by the program’s designers as just common sense. Rather than promote common sense it seems as if iWatch were designed to circumvent common sense.
