Ironic is it not that in the Star's efforts to avoid the obvious, to be so "sensitive" to omit common facts in their reporting in an effort to align themselves to the extreme with Political Correctness in regard to the Hispanic community that they actual cause more contempt and disrespect to be focused on them?
Reminds me of the following that I ran across a while back and is on point.
"The law of unintended consequences is the outgrowth of many theories, but was probably best defined by sociologist Robert K. Merton in 1936. Merton wrote an article, The Unanticipated Consequences of Purposive Social Action, which covers five different ways that actions, particularly those taken on a large scale as by governments, may have unexpected consequences. These “reactions,” may be positive, negative or merely neutral, but they veer off from the intent of the initial action."
Interesting they would be unaware that of all the newspapers in the country, even within the Scripps empire, the Star is alone in it's position on this issue. If they had a scintilla of common sense they would realize that they are doing more harm than good, but then extreme liberals seldom use common sense or they would not be so oriented in the first place. They should use a sub-banner on their paper -- Viva La Raza!

Morning yawl:).
Not to donald your story adam 1,butt we had a similar experience...
There is a small "washatieria" by our place and rib would do our laundry there on no-busy days.A houduran lived ,at the apartments there,five apts.there with a bunch of other illegals.Rib ask me to do something about this guy trying to expose himself!
I kinda keep an I on the guy while working in the yard.
The guy was sprawled across the picnic table and legs up shorts on.Could be innocent:).Rib walks across to the house and we go in.Rib starts back to catch wash cycle.I look out and yepper,the guy is now turned legs facing where rib will walk past.I look out a few minutes later and the guy is now facing the laudry window and door legs up:(.I git my "pig skinner"knive and leather gloves and go to skin this guy!!!
oH and my .357 mag,hydro-shock rounds is in my cammos;).
I accost him.They come out of the woodworks,cell phones recording;).
I explained to all of them if this blankity,blank blank was anywhere near rib,FOREVER!!What he should have got that day will come back and happen,on SITE.They all left that night which is good.
I did call the border patrol and immigration.
and yes plenty of habala then;).The legal rights of illegals are greater than ours,now had the 5-6-7 of them jumped me,different scenario;).I was tryin believe you me:).
They always say do not bring a knife to a gun fight:).Me?Y i bring both;),just in case;).

Kudos girlfriend! he/she proved you were 'spot on'! good call!
possibly just another of those wayward player/poser trolls...

oldgrouch writes:
EZ, I do not think it is as you say
"possibly just another of those wayward player/poser trolls...
flinging left over monkey residue from that now defunct? fantasy blog, chuckles."
I think it maybe one of your own from California.
could be wrong but do not think so.
EZgeezer writes:
Hey grouch, how goes it my friend?
No argument, you very well may be right?
Heck, it's even possible we BOTH are because, come to think of it, there were some wayward player/poser trolls FROM California flinging stuff over there as well, yes?
_It doesn't matter to me, everyone's welcome.
(providing they can maintain a reasonable level of civility) -------------->right?
Ex_Pat writes:
Candy? Or maybe something else?
smacktalk writes:
I need about the same. I am lucky that there is a chemical company that has online courses for free.
I just sit here and take the class, you must be logged on the class for 55 minutes and take a test at end to get credit. I also have to have 30 hrs of Rules and Regs ....Hate it

EZ so many posters, so little time... ;-P
tech_son, wooden bat or aluminum?
pearler, some people like to do those nasty things and sometimes it's up to us to take control of the situation right there and then!

Ya I had to be the smart a-- back in the day and get every license you can get. Then the State decided that we needed continuing ed classes for all licenses.
Ex_Pat writes:

It matters not what type of bat someone uses to whomp on tech_son, it is NOT going to be candy that spills out of his carcass.
tech_son writes:
lol... Expat.. I fear you may be correct.. we should just skip the beating and eat candy..
tech_son writes:
Smack, i have a long list of endorsements that must be maintained so that my men can legally work under my direction.. The class for this next weekend is one of 2 that i have to take for my main license... what a drag.... same old boring stuff year after year...

Ya, that's what I don't like. I have asked and mentioned many times " How about some new material?"

Afternoon BCers
Going to be a warm one today. It sprinkled a little bit here yesterday.
I see we have a whole new casts of characters in da house. I don't know what it is but, I'll tell ya, everytime VonKraus comes into the room it makes me want a big fat juicy knockwurst and of course some sauerkraut to go with.
I just heard this, did you know that Jello/Gelatin is made from the connective tissues of animals and their bones, hoofs and skin. If you thought bologna and hotdogs were bad, add this to your list. Ewwwwwww
Have a good one everyone!
Luvee writes:
Smack have you heard of the Elm seed bug? They've found it in SW Idaho and it's more interested in entering your home. It looks like tiny brown cockroaches and have an unpleasant odor when crushed.
I'm watching wayyy to much news.
smacktalk writes:
No I haven't until this morning when I heard on the news myself. They are not suppose to be a public health threat, as the vector no disease.They say they swarm in huge swarms. To me the look a lot like a brown box elder bug.
Sarie writes:
EZ, yes :) ... I did see that absolutely gorgeous stunning beautiful awesome what else? :) sunset yesterday and was inclined to notify the list about it but then had second thoughts, didn't want to interrupt the flow of conversation ... but then was glad to see later that IYSS made a comment on it. I saw it from my living room then balcony ... I had gone for a nature walk earlier because it was cool enough, unlike today, rather than a sunset one ... and then ... later that evening -- you keeping up with this, SweetSiren? :) -- a heavy rainfall here in this part of TO ... just for about ten minutes ... but, still, neat/FUN ... love rain.
Sarie writes:
Hey everybody ... glad to have you with us again and still Ex_Pat ... and everybody else too of course ... hoping ya'll are having a good day, classes or not. :)

Luvee writes:
I didn't know so many (3 or 4) liked those big fat juicy sausages. There hard to find now, I like the kind that snap when you bite into them.

I know you meant this in a very innocent way but I read it a few times and it kept getting funnier. Keep UP the good work young lady!
wendyinvc writes:
Just a PSA for some...no need to go to the Tiki Xtravaganza for your viewing "pleasure". There's this new device called the internet where you don't have to worry about running into LAPD:) Fred Williard, I've loved your humor for many years (Best in Show), but now there's a creep factor to you:)at the same time:(
XIV writes:
The police didn't define the lewd act but the guy is 76 years old. What kind of perverted act is a man that age capable of doing?
In the absense of facts, here's my take on it. He spilled a drink on himself and changed his Depends in front of everyone. In his drunken stupor he then proceeded to wave his soiled chonies around his head to the horror of the crowd screaming "Who wants a senior citizen lap dance?"
That's my stroy and I'm sticking to it.:-)
Sarie writes:
Oh well, just one beer and by my lonesome ... no knockwurst either. :)
Sarie writes:
Hmm, sounds like something Confucius -- confuse us :) -- might say, OldGrouch, but thanks anyway ... seriously, I DO get it ... we gals continue to look too but not as much ... such is our nature ... generally ... for me for sure.
Sarie writes:
Most stories like that I skip over, 14, but your version sounds AWFULLY good. :)
Sarie writes:
Okaaaay, what else ... a stroll I think ... sunset doesn't compare to last night but good enough ...
wendyinvc writes:
I'm glad you're giving him a pass....the Tiki IS a lewd act....really, how can you do a lewd act IN a lewd act??? Actually 71 and as I understand it, more than capable:)
wendyinvc writes:
Yea...I got 50....I know it's not even more than a spank, but here I am.
XIV writes:
I had no idea that place was one of "those" clubs. It just sounded like a typical Hollyweird hangout. I will give him the benefit of the doubt until the facts surface. Did he pull a pee wee herman or something like that?
Heyyyy! How did you that place was like that? Ok, you can take the fifth and not answer that.
wendyinvc writes:
X14...my life's purpose is to know everything and I'm really good at it!! The fifth...I don't think so...He really "pulled" the pee-wee herman!!!

Now there is a viaual I didn't need before going to sleep. Instead of counting sheep, I'm going to be thinking of Fred and pee wee doing the Tequila dance together or something strange.
