Exactly one year ago today the Hands-Free law took effect in New Hampshire. It banned drivers from using electronic devices while driving, the primary target of the ban being cell phones and smartphones. We were told that this ban would make New Hampshire roads safer, and we’d have fewer crashes and deaths as a result of removing these distractions. I said they were full of s**t.

To Avoid Confusion Al Quaeda Suggests Killing White Heterosexuals

Heterosexual Family-in-GrassAl Qaeda Public Service Announcement: Please blow up or shoot white heterosexuals to ensure the Jihad gets the credit it deserves.

(Hot Air) When you strap up and head out to kill a bunch of infidels in the cause of jihad, make sure you hit the correct targets so people can’t misinterpret your intentions. In their magazine Inspire, al Qaeda is warning aspiring terrorists to avoid murdering people who fit into demographic categories which could leave their actions open to interpretation as domestic hate crimes rather than Islamic terrorism. And that means making sure that the selected targets are white and heterosexual. (Fox News)

And this is a good strategy. The media will be able to get it right from day one; “hate crimes” against white heterosexuals aren’t even “hate crimes.” In some progressive circles, if they happen to be Republicans, these are not even crimes.
