Maryland Congressman Anthony Brown has proposed legislation that would force every American college to define rules for acceptable speech. It includes federal money for small schools that need assistance in meeting the laws reporting and enforcement requirements. Rules that, if not followed could result in schools losing other federal dollars.

The Supreme Court should save us all a lot of bother and drop Mr. Brown a note before he says another word.

Dear Congressman Brown. Please see emphasized text in item one.  US Constitution. Bill of Rights. First Amendment,

This was originally linked at New Media Militia but given what an “active” topic this is I thought I’d share it here as well.

Jim Simpson, who’s been a friend of the Grok, more or less, since 2014, has written about the report by Dave Gaubatz shared here back on August 5th. Jim Comes to the defense of the rating system used to declare the mosque in Manchester as “a Sunni/Saudi and Pakistani front for Islamic based terrorists groups such as Al Qaeda and ISIS.”

Jim explains.

(Dave Gaubatz) has investigated over 280 mosques in the U.S. alone and uses a rating system developed by a former Islamist, Tafik Hamid.

There is zero evidence that Russia hacked the “presidential election” yet New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen leads her New York Times editorial with, “The Kremlin hacked our presidential election.”

It is difficult to take much she says seriously most days, but opening with an unsubstantiated talking point makes the rest of her remarks difficult to accept, which is sad. Russian hacking and cyber war, in general, is a real thing worthy of some attention.

Jeanne Shaheen isn’t serious about that or anything else unless it advances the party line and partisan politics.

New Hampshire Democrat Party Chair Ray Buckley doesn’t even have the decency to apologize for implying that thousands of likely New Hampshire voters are white supremacists. Instead, he has a spokesman spin his treachery to blame Republicans.

“The Republican outrage apparatus is expectedly taking this comment out of context to manufacture controversy,” Ronan said. “Chairman Buckley would never characterize unregistered, disaffected voters as white supremacists.

New Hampshire Democrat Party Chairman Ray Buckley’s remarks last weekend should leave a mark. Yes, a Party Spokesman claims they were taken out of context but that’s not going to cut it because the actual context was not only evident, other recent events make matters worse for Ray and New Hampshire Democrats.

In responding to the matter of a new pro-Trump group reaching out to rural voters, Buckley said, “The organizing and activating of these extremists, these white supremacists, really could have a detrimental effect on the entire culture of New Hampshire.”

These extremists and white supremacists?  That’s clear as vodka Comrade Buckley.

So what did I mean when I said matters are much worse for New Hampshire Democrats?

We’ve been doing this long enough to know that some percentage of the audience will cave when the progressive Bandersnatch comes calling. You’ll be all haughty, repeal-Obamacare, defend the Constitution and all that until the Democrats start calling you names and suddenly you are talking about bi-partisan this and crossing the aisle that.

You know who you are, and so do we. So, with that in mind, as a public disservice, we’re sharing a copy of the University of Minnesota’s Non-Binary Pronoun guide so that when you sell out at least you will be doing that right.

Because we can’t spend enough time talking about the duplicity of the media and Democrats, on the matter of political violence, we bring you this.

In a textbook example of psychological projection, [the media] ascribed to the president actions and motivations which proved to be their own: making excuses for political violence. The claim that President Trump was too forgiving of neo-nazis and Klansmen turned out to be a more accurate description of their own assessments of Antifa. The media all but lionized the group, mitigated criticism of it, and allowed the political violence Antifa engages in to be swept under the rug of good intentions.

While some light has been shed upon the truth, we still have a pro-violence faction in New Hampshire that includes Dartmouth Professors and Democrat politicians providing defense or cover for violence and intimidation that favors their political ideology.

New Hampshire Democrats need to decide if they agree with Democrat State Party Chair Raymond Buckley? Are most New Hampshire voters White Supremacists or not?

In response to this new organization reaching out to disaffected (rural) voters, Ray Buckley, chair of the New Hampshire Democrat Party, former DNC Vice Chair and former candidate for chair of the DNC, said the following:

“The organizing and activating of these extremists, these white supremacists, really could have a detrimental effect on the entire culture of New Hampshire,” New Hampshire Democratic Party Chairman Ray Buckley said.

Kimberly Morin went into further detail here. A story that is going national as I write this Here, and here. She also discussed it this morning on Girard at Large, which you can listen to on the jump.

On August 31st GraniteGrok posted a report about a banana peel with the power to put the full meaning in the word retreat. An Ole Miss Greek Life event came to a screeching (weeping, horribly terrifying) halt (followed by a full retreat) when a banana peel was found in a tree.

In a letter to the editor, Makala McNeil and her sorority sister share the details of this life-changing event and (of course) how it made them feel.
