Mom of 3 Arrested, Jailed for Putting Recycling in Wrong Color Bag:- Police found woman’s address after searching trash bags
Ipswitch mother-of-three Lyndsey Webb, 34, reportedly used black bags for her recycling, unaware of a new March ordinance requiring her to use orange and clear bags.
In a span of 22 days, she left 60 bags out, according to MetroUK.
...“The black bags chucked out by Lindsey were flagged by a passing warden, who saw 10 bags dumped on the pavement,”
..."As for the 60 bags of trash in under a month, Kendall said Webb’s three kids “generate quite a bit of waste.”

Is Masculinity Inherently Toxic? | Intellectual Takeout
"“Toxic masculinity” has become a buzzword of sorts in media and culture alike.
But in Pennsylvania, Gettysburg College is taking the issue to a whole new level, the College Fix reports.
Students at Gettysburg college who identify as male are now required to watch a documentary entitled “The Mask You Live In,” directed by feminist Jennifer Siebel Newsom.
As seen in the documentary’s trailer (see below), the video’s main premise is that the three most destructive words a boy can hear are “be a man.”..."

“As a society, we cannot afford to allow pastors to be arrested and jailed for attending a public event at which they are deemed to be non-supportive of a particular ideology,” he said.
Yaghtin did not consider himself a protester, but police ordered him to stay away and cross the street where protesters had gathered, the Pacific Justice said.

“Green” Energy Is Sinister | Power Line
“Green” Energy Is Sinister | Power Line
"We conservatives tend to argue that “green” energy (wind and solar) is unreliable, inefficient, expensive, and virtually useless, even if we accept the climate change gospel*.
But the truth is worse than that.
Far from being well-intentioned, as most assume, “green” energy is the great corporate scam of our age.
And green energy is not kind to the Earth as school children are taught.
Rather, wind and solar are terrible for the environment.

It is time to get tough on “green” energy.
I wrote about some of the environmental drawbacks of solar energy here.
To perhaps an even greater degree than solar energy, wind turbines also damage the environment..."

KLAVAN: If You’re Outraged, You’re An Idiot | Daily Wire
KLAVAN: If You’re Outraged, You’re An Idiot | Daily Wire:
Outrage Culture is the Left's latest attempt to end an argument they can't win. Leftism wrecks economies and endangers America's historically unique commitment to individual liberty. Since every leftist ideal from socialism to disarming the populace is a threat to our founding ideals, and since any open debate will expose that threat, the Left spends an inordinate amount of time inventing new strategies to try to force the opposition into silence.
Political correctness is such a strategy: If you don't use our words, you're evil. Calling people racist, white nationalist, white supremacist and Hitler — another strategy: as if the only possible reason you could want to enforce the rule of law at our borders is because you don't like brown people! Pretending to take jokes seriously is yet another strategy. And so on.

Trump Isn’t the One Dividing Us by Race - WSJ
Trump Isn’t the One Dividing Us by Race - WSJ"Long before the El Paso massacre, President Trump’s political opponents accused him of sowing “division” with his “racist language.”
Mr. Trump “exploits race,” “uses race for his gain,” is engaged in a “racially divisive reprise” of his 2016 campaign, stokes “racial resentments,” and puts “race at the fore,” the New York Times has reported over the past several months.
Yet Mr. Trump rarely uses racial categories in his speech or his tweets.
It is the media and Democratic leaders who routinely characterize individuals and groups by race and issue race-based denunciations of large parts of the American polity..."

JACKSON: Blacks are abandoning the Democratic Party - Washington Times
"For more than 50 years, the black community has been the wholly owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party.
That may be changing.
In spite of the overwhelmingly liberal voting patterns of black voters, they are an essentially conservative community.
Americans of African descent are more pro-life and pro-family than the average white voter and as conservative on social issues as any white evangelical.
Democrats have managed to monopolize the black vote in spite of the vast chasm between the two on social issues.
...Democrats now have fully embraced an abortion policy that amounts to infanticide.
They have also made the lesbian-homosexual-bisexual-transgender agenda their vision for America.
How have they managed to hold on to black Christians in spite of an agenda worthy of the Antichrist?
They have shown a ruthless willingness to frighten black voters with outright lies about the plans of conservatives and Republicans.
Vice President Joseph R. Biden’s “they gonna put y’all back in chains” was not a gaffe..."
