Sexual Harassment - the Liberal's Cudgel

There are those men who view women as objects, or trophies, to pursue and control. Clearly, these types should be prosecuted for their effort to utilize their power over women. 

And then there are men who think nothing of the sort. 

Instead, this second type of men were brought up to be gentlemen who are courteous and considerate of women and to treat them with respect for the key role they play in the social fabric of a civil society. 

The only problem for this second category of men in today's liberal feminist world of obsession with doing everything it can to eliminate any vestige of former social norms of how "gentlemen" should act is that they are now being harassed, threatened, and persecuted.

I know... I've encountered this cudgel a few times in my life. My most recent got me terminated because I'd given a female associate a "peck" on the cheek in the joy of the moment of celebrating her 65th birthday... not exactly my idea of an act worthy of pursuing her for sex!

What makes things even worse for "gentlemen" today is that the law specifically states that it is the perception of the receiver of the action or comment, and not the intent of the giver in the exchange between two genders today which constitutes whether "sexual harassment" has occurred.

Now, any male who says to a woman, "My, you look lovely today!" is in jeopardy of being accused of sexual harassment. Where has the civility and decency gone?

It's clearly become a very one sided workplace over-reaction for women. Most large companies are completely paranoid of the legal implications which might arise from one of their female employees filing a lawsuit against them for not act swiftly and firmly. Thanks for nothing, lawyers!

When I heard in my employee training over the more recent years that this was now the case, I realized this was a perversion of the norm and a "perfect weapon" of the left to suppress free expression.

What, I thought, has liberalism become today that claims its ideology is against suppression while doing that very thing through the implementation of sexual harassment laws.

A more recent case of how this cudgel is used is Rep. Manweller's. He's currently dealing with the left's efforts via the #MeToo movement to sully him in the public's eye and oust him from his key role in the state legislature.

It's clear to me that this instance of alleged sexual harassment is nothing more than an attempt to insidiously get him removed in order to install one of their more ideologically aligned professors in his place.

Any thinking individual understands that there are legitimate cases where true sexual harassment occurs, such as the Weinstein case in Hollywood - along with many others who've taken advantage of their position of power and prestige which should be prosecuted, but in my mind, 90% of the claims are clearly frivolous, yet are treated as though it was on a par with actual rape.

And therein lies the real cudgel the feminists seek to exploit in order to feel they're winning.

In my view, it's only eroding the social courtesy that used to be a positive part of a civil society further.

This Is Justice?... According to Liberal Judges It Is!

With all that's going on with the leftists and media's "witch hunt" to take down Pres. Trump, one of the more interesting stories regarding the last presidential election has faded into the background, if not been totally forgotten. The MSM certainly won't bring it to anyone's attention.

Remember the IT aide for the DNC's congressional leader, Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, Imran Awan? You know, the one accused of money laundering, hacking into Congress's server and downloading truck loads of data to send it to a foreign middle-eastern country, but was caught at the airport attempting to flee the country with lots of cash?

Well, a liberal judge has decided in his case that he's "suffered enough already" and is letting him off the hook. For details on this injustice, check out this article explaining the case.  

This is what liberal justice looks like for those supporting crooked liberal congresswomen who kept him on the congressional payroll for months after he'd been arrested.

Why Michael Cohen's Plea Is A Joke

For those following daily the details of what Mueller's team of partisan hack lawyers have been doing with their "witch hunt" of finding "Russian Collusion", I offer my readers this link to a clip from Sean Hannity's show of yesterday, 8/21/18, and his guest, Mark Levin's explanation of how Cohen's plea is a Constitutional myth/fantasy.

It might, if you've not seen it, or need a refresher on this point, help clarify why these legal actions against anyone who has some connection, however remote that connection might be to Donal J. Trump, has absolutely no implications in any way to anything involving a "Russian Collusion", or "Obstruction of Justice" for Pres. Trump, or any of his campaign staff.

Feelings... Nothing More Than Feeeelings!

It seems some of today's college students feel they're correcting something by taking vandalism out on hunks of metal; once again!

While Chicago was reeling from another 60 people getting shot last weekend, a mob of “anti-racism” protesters were busy toppling a hundred-year-old Confederate statue in North Carolina, proving once again that social justice warriors would rather virtue signal at an ancient hunk of metal than address actual threats to minority communities.

Watch this MRCTV video of Brittany Hughes explaining how this action is part of the laziest "anti-racism" campaign ever!

Putting Our National Culture At Risk

The media narrative today is that America in the “xeno-phobic” Trump era is turning its back on new immigrants. But that narrative is sharply contradicted by the fact that the United States maintains the most generous immigration policies in the world. In this week’s new video, CRTV host and best-selling author Michelle Malkin explains how ill-conceived immigration policies threaten to destroy the American Dream for everyone.

A Tale of Two Individuals

Perhaps this story will adequately illustrate why I, who was the guy who didn't get recruited to a "big time" college because I chose distance running in cross-country and track during high school, feel the way I do about the current situation regarding taking a knee.

You 'graduated' high school in 2011.  Your teenage years were a struggle.  You grew up on the wrong side of the tracks.  Your mother was the leader of the family and worked tirelessly to keep a roof over your head and food on your plate.  Academics were a struggle for you and your grades were mediocre at best. The only thing that made you stand out is you weighed 225 lbs and could run 40 yards in 4.2 seconds while carrying a football.  Your best friend was just like you, except he didn’t play football.  Instead of going to football practice after school, he went to work at McDonalds for minimum wage.  You were recruited by all the big colleges and spent every weekend of your senior year making visits to universities where coaches and boosters tried to convince you their school was best.  They laid out the red carpet for you. Your best friend worked double shifts at Mickey D’s.  College was not an option for him.  On the day you signed with Big State University, your best friend signed paperwork with his Army recruiter.  You went to summer workouts.  He went to basic training.

 

You spent the next four years living in the athletic dorm, eating at the training table. You spent your Saturdays on the football field, cheered on by adoring fans.  Tutors attended to your every academic need.  You attended class when you felt like it. Sure, you worked hard.  You lifted weights, ran sprints, studied plays, and soon became one of the top football players in the country.  Your best friend was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division. While you were in college, he deployed to Iraq once and Afghanistan twice.  He became a Sergeant and led a squad of 19 year old soldiers who grew up just like he did.  He shed his blood in Afghanistan and watched young American's give their lives, limbs, and innocence for the USA.

 

You went to the NFL combine and scored off the charts.  You hired an agent and waited for draft day.  You were drafted in the first round and your agent immediately went to work, ensuring that you received the most money possible. You signed for $16 million although you had never played a single down of professional football.  Your best friend re-enlisted in the Army for four more years. As a combat tested sergeant, he will be paid $32,000 per year.

 

You will drive a Ferrari on the streets of South Beach.  He will ride in the back of a Blackhawk helicopter with 10 other combat loaded soldiers.  You will sleep at the Ritz.  He will dig a hole in the ground and try to sleep.  You will “make it rain” in the club.  He will pray for rain as the temperature reaches 120 degrees.

 

On Sunday, you will run into a stadium as tens of thousands of fans cheer and yell your name.  For your best friend, there is little difference between Sunday and any other day of the week.  There are no adoring fans.  There are only people trying to kill him and his soldiers. Every now and then, he and his soldiers leave the front lines and “go to the rear” to rest.  He might be lucky enough to catch an NFL game on TV.  When the National Anthem plays and you take a knee, he will jump to his feet and salute the television.  While you protest the unfairness of life in the United States, he will give thanks to God that he has the honor of defending his great country.

 

To the players of the NFL:  We are the people who buy your tickets, watch you on TV, and wear your jerseys.  We anxiously wait for Sundays so we can cheer for you and marvel at your athleticism. Although we love to watch you play, we care little about your opinions until you offend us. You have the absolute right to express yourselves, but we have the absolute right to boycott you.  We have tolerated your drug use and DUIs, your domestic violence, and your vulgar displays of wealth.  We should be ashamed for putting our admiration of your physical skills before what is morally right.  But now you have gone too far. You have insulted our flag, our country, our soldiers, our police officers, and our veterans. You are living the American dream, yet you disparage our great country.  I encourage all like minded Americans to boycott the NFL.

Here's a great video to watch on this topic.

National boycott of the NFL for Sunday, is November 11th, Veterans Day Weekend. Boycott all football telecast, all fans, all ticket holders, stay away from attending any games, let them play to empty stadiums. Pass this post along to all your friends and family. Honor our military, some of whom come home with the American Flag draped over their coffin.

8/23/18 Update: Here's the latest development on this issue from Bill O'Reilly's site.

Trump Demands ESPN Air National Anthem During 'Monday Night Football'
President Donald Trump's campaign is demanding ESPN show the national anthem during Monday Night Football games. On Wednesday, an email signed by the president was sent to supporters asking them to sign a petition. "I’m calling on you to join me in denouncing this SPINELESS surrender to the politically correct liberal mob," read the email, signed by Trump. ESPN president Jimmy Pitaro announced last week that the network will not air the anthem during MNF games this season, which has been the standard in the past. There may be exceptions as the season rolls along, but otherwise, the network will not show that portion of the game. CBS Sports will also reportedly not show the anthem portion of pregames. ESPN declined to comment on Trump's demand and petition.

Joke of the Day

 

Bill and Hillary are at a Yankees home game, sitting in the first row, with the Secret Service people directly behind them.

One of the Secret Service guys leans forward and whispers something to Bill.

At first, Clinton stares at the guy, looks at Hillary, looks back at the agent, and shakes his head "no".  

The agent then says, "Mr. President, it was a unanimous request of the entire team, from the owner  to the bat boy." 

Bill hesitates but begins to change his mind when the agent tells him the fans would love it.

Bill shrugs his shoulders and says, "Ho-Kay! If that is what the people want.  C'mere Hilly baby." 

With that, Bill gets up, grabs Hillary by her collar and the seat of her pants, lifts her up, and tosses her right over the wall onto the field

She gets up kicking, swearing, screaming, "Bill you"!$#@&!".

The crowd goes absolutely wild.  

Fans are jumping up and down, cheering, hooting and hollering, and high-fiving.  

Bill is bowing, smiling and waving to the crowd.

He leans over to the agent and says, "How about that; I would have never believed how much everyone would enjoy that!" 

Noticing the agent has gone totally pale, he asks what is wrong. 

The agent replies, "Sir, I said they want you to throw out the first 'pitch'."
