Michigan City Indoctrinates Kids in Lefty Protest Tactics but Won’t Let a Conservative Farmer Sell His Vegetables - Acculturated

Michigan City Indoctrinates Kids in Lefty Protest Tactics but Won’t Let a Conservative Farmer Sell His Vegetables - Acculturated: 
"It is the best of times, it is the worst of times.
In East Lansing, Michigan, it isn’t quite Dickens, but it’s a veritable tale of two cities. 
For liberals, it is the best of times, and the city will be supportive at every turn, but for conservatives, it is the worst of times, and the city will punish you for your beliefs.
It is the worst of times for Steve Tennes, a Catholic farmer in Charlotte, Michigan, some twenty miles outside of East Lansing. 
While weddings are sometimes held at his Country Mill farm, as a practicing Catholic, he refers same-sex weddings to other nearby farms. 
In a Facebook post he said, “It remains our deeply held religious belief that marriage is the union of one man and one woman and Country Mill has the First Amendment Right to express and act upon its beliefs.”
 The City of East Lansing disagreed. 
When they caught wind of his decision to exercise his religious freedom, they said he could no longer sell his produce at their farmers’ market, where he had been selling since 2010..."

Trump: Obama Knew About Russian Interference Three Years Ago But Did Nothing

Trump: Obama Knew About Russian Interference Three Years Ago But Did Nothing:

"A new report by Politico reveals that the Obama administration was made aware of Russian attempts to meddle in Western elections as early as 2014 but chose to do nothing.

President Barack Obama and senior officials were reluctant to act on the information because the administration did not want to botch a peace deal in Syria involving the Russian government."

Op-ed: Writer warns most studies 'show whatever someone wants them to' - The College Fix

Op-ed: Writer warns most studies 'show whatever someone wants them to' - The College Fix:
"There seems to be an academic study for everything these days, and many seem like a total waste of time.

Take for an instance a 2016 study that delved into a “feminist glaciology framework for global environmental change research.” 

...Other studies state the obvious. 

A Brown University researcher was awarded a $5 million grant to discover frat boys drink more than their classmates and a 2016 study found business travelers enjoy their trips more when they wait less time in line. 

Who would have thought?

...“Hands down, the two most dangerous words in the English language today are ‘studies show,’ he writes.

From the article:

The world is inundated with the manipulation of flighty studies to prove some larger point about mankind in the name of behavioral science. 

Pop psychologists have churned out mountains of books proving some intuitive point that turns out to be wrong. 

It’s “sciencey,” with a whiff of (false) authenticity.

... Andrew Ferguson of the Weekly Standard studied behavioral economic studies and discovered many are done by grad students observing their peers doing trivial tasks. 
Then researchers draw hard conclusions from this. Rather than a study of human nature, behavioral science is, Mr. Ferguson observes, “the study of college kids in psych labs.”

NY schools to use vaping, bullying detectors

NY schools to use vaping, bullying detectors: 
"NEW YORK (FOX5NY) - Smoking and vaping are banned in all New York schools. 
Now schools are testing technology that can smoke out offenders. 
The new technology inside a little box may play a big role in holding students who break the law accountable.
"If we get a spike above the line then we know if there's an incident occurring," Digital Fly CEO Derek Peterson said. "And we notify the officials."
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in July banned the use of e-cigarettes on all public and private school grounds.
If you use a vape pen on school property, school officials can find out.
"If someone is inside the bathroom and they vape, it will contaminate the air, our sensor will pick it up and it will alert somebody in real time, 'Hey, there's a problem here, your air is contaminated, somebody could be vaping, somebody could be smoking, send somebody to check it out,'" Digital Fly software developer Billy Schweigert said.
The device, called Fly Sense, can detect gas and moisture in the air indicating vaping is taking place. 
A spike in the data means something is suspicious. Peterson said the device then sends an alert to a cellphone.
The device has another sensor to track peaks in sound levels to also determine if bullying or fighting is possibly happening..."

Protesters in Atlanta Tear Down ‘Peace Monument’ After Mistaking It for Confederate SymboI: 
"Protesters vandalized and attempted to take down the Peace Monument in Piedmont Park in Atlanta on Sunday, mistaking it for a pro-Confederate statue.
The protesters were marching in response to the violent protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, on Saturday where one woman died after being deliberately hit by a car, and two law enforcement personnel were killed when the helicopter they were in crashed.
“The Atlanta march traveled from Woodruff Park to Piedmont Park Sunday, where some damaged the Peace Monument, erected in 1911,” a blog on the Atlanta Journal-Constitution website said. 
“The sculpture features an angel standing above a Confederate soldier, guiding him to lay down his weapon...”"
