NKU Prof. Can’t Abort Her Indictment
  • Last Friday I wrote a post about the professor at Northern Kentucky University who organized a group of students to destroy a pro-life display on campus. Today comes word that the Professor in question has apologized and been put on leave from now until her pending retirement. Police have almost finished their investigation of the incident [...]...
    • Equal Opportunity Offenders…Not Quite
  • I wrote here about the Culture editor for the Jyllands-Posten who, shortly after the cartoon controversy erupted into violence, had a plan for setting things right. His plan was to offend Christians and thereby show the Muslim world that they weren’t being targeted unfairly: We want to show that Jyllands-Posten does not have an anti-Muslim bent,’ [...]...
    • War Memorial Vandalized?
  • Sure looks that way to me: Some are suggesting WD-40 would stain the granite this way. See here for more. Hard to believe this wasn’t the work of an anti-war saboteur. There was a similar incident in Massachusettes (where else?) recently. And here’s another case, this one in Sacramento, CA. Reminds me of this sickening act of vandalism [...]...
    • Attempted Murder (of an Unborn Baby) – Updated
  • An interesting case out of England. A man who feared becoming a father fed his wife of ten years crushed pills to cause an abortion. She became seriously ill and was hospitalized twice. He was eventually jailed when the truth came out about what he’d done. The wife’s take is insightful: She said that when she found [...]...

  • ABC reports a new study showing that cleanliness really is next to Godliness: Scientists have finally put that concept to the test and have found that physical and moral purity are indeed psychologically intertwined — and sometimes even interchangeable. This bit in particular I found interesting: Bad deeds made students feel dirty, but researchers found that the reverse [...]...
    • Pro-Life Speech Prevented Because of Risk of Violent Response
  • From WND: Each semester since 2006, members of the University of Calgary’s Campus Pro-Life student club, called CPL, have displayed a set of 4-by-8-foot signs from the Genocide Awareness Project that protest abortion. This semester, however, lawyers for the university sent a menacing letter to CPL informing the students that their signs would only be permitted if [...]...
    • The New School Curriculum – Reading, Writing and Watching “Brokeback Mountain”
  • Once again, as a teacher I am mortified at the poor judgment and sheer stupidity of some of my fellow educators. As the story is being reported, a substitute teacher showed the gay-themed movie “Brokeback Mountain” to an 8th grade class. As she prepared to show the film, she told the class, “What [...]...

  • The post-racial propaganda campaign continues on Thursday evening with the President hosting Harvard professor Henry Gates and Cambridge police officer James Crowley at the White House for a beer or two. As I commented in an earlier thread, I think this story has drawn way more attention than it has deserved. If the purpose of the [...]...
    • Global Warming Consensus?
  • Not according to a new study/review of studies published since 2004 which found that more than half of climate study authors are skeptical of global warming claims: In 2004, history professor Naomi Oreskes performed a survey of research papers on climate change.

    • V for Vandalism

    John on April 14, 2006 at 8:27 am

    Michelle Malkin has a post about a professor and a group of grad students who destroyed a pro-life display of crosses on university grounds. The pro-life group that set up the display is pressing charges and the students are facing disciplinary action from the school.

    What caught my attention was this comment by the professor:

    Any violence perpetrated against that silly display was minor compared to how I felt when I saw it. Some of my students felt the same way, just outraged.

    This is the “vandalism made me feel better” defense which is sort of a subset of “blowing up things can change the world” concept put forth in a recent Wachowski brothers movie. We saw a lot of this in the 2004 election. I think we could see even more in 2008.
