A few days Back we shared news from across the “pond.” Stores in Britain were discontinuing sales of kitchen knives. Knife crime, assault, and murder are so prevalent that they don’t want to get swept up as complicit. The problem is so bad that one MP has suggested putting GPS trackers in ever knife in Britain.
Powerful interests, e.g., politicians and special interests (like La Raza) craving political power, businesses wanting cheaper labor, and unions wanting more members, benefit from illegal immigration. But your benefit, if any, is probably small. Illegal immigrants hurt Americans in many ways. They commit crimes, hurt people in traffic accidents, transport/sell drugs, bring diseases, get welfare … Read more
For a primer on the promise of Democrat-run Big Government Socialism look west young paper-straw-using trans-man or trans-woman. Where liberal policies sowed deep into the hollowed-out heart of a once sparkling coastline, have borne poison fruit. To which we can add a growing Typhus epidemic.
With 6,000 pages of evidence from a whistleblower and the testimony of players inside the organization “the vast right-wing conspiracy” has nothing on the IRS and the FBI when it comes to the Clinton Foundation. That evidence was assembled by a private firm called MDA Analytics LLC, run by accomplished ex-federal criminal investigators, who alleged the … Read more
Student protesters reacted predictably when “racist graffiti” was discovered on their campus. In keeping with the kind of education provided at institutions of “higher” learning. “White supremacists are getting bold under President Trump.” The only problem? The perpetrator was a black student who directed the racism at (drumroll please) himself.
Border tensions are flaring as thousands of foreigners stress the patientce and resources of local residents. In Mexico. According to Mexican journalist Alex Backman, things are bad and the President of Mexico is doing nothing to stop it. “…the migrants are robbing and stealing in Mexico. They carjack cars containing just one occupant. There are even accounts … Read more
The mayor of London is seriously considering banning motor vehicles from certain areas around Parliment after a recent terrorist attack using a vehicle.
To The Daily Sun,
Do you want illegal aliens here? James Vervaeke says “we” do (see Laconia Daily Sun, 7/24/18). I, and I suspect most Americans, don’t want them here. No one should be rewarded for breaking our laws, especially when so many illegal aliens harm American citizens and create a burden on American taxpayers. Yes, some illegal aliens come here for a better life, intending to be law-abiding and self-supporting, and work hard to support their families. But there are hundreds of millions of people who want to come here legally with the same intent, so we can and should pick and choose carefully.
A nation exists to benefit its own citizens, not citizens of other countries.
Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate Steve Marchand has read the fair-trade responsibly sourced liberal tea leaves. Advocating Far-Left ideas wins Democrat primaries. To that end, he’s decided to share his plan for making New Hampshire into a sanctuary state.
Keep in mind that it is the Sanctuary Status of Lawrence, Massachusetts that makes it the epicenter of opioid and human trafficking into New Hampshire.
Tone-deaf, much?
England took away the guns, so the criminals turned to other tools. Knives have become quite popular among London’s criminals. Their use has made the city a murder capital to rival New York City.
New Hampshire is getting another $3.1 Million to combat the opioid crisis. US News is reporting that New Hampshire’s All Gurl Delegation, Democrat x four, says it is not enough.
New Hampshire’s delegation had urged President Donald Trump’s administration to revise the formula used to allocate funding so it prioritizes states like New Hampshire that are hardest hit by the crisis. But that didn’t happen.
This coming from a gaggle of progressive geese with no real interest in solving “the problem.”
Given all I’ve written about MS-13, opioids, and sanctuary cities and states lately, this cartoon boils the California problem down to a national defense issue. We can’t secure the border, address the opioid crisis, or any of the gang violence it perpetuates as long as California is a conduit for drugs, gang members, and the cartels that … Read more
Martin O’Malley was in New Hampshire last week, and he thinks gun control is a winning issue for Democrats even if it hasn’t worked in Maryland, yet.
“It’s hard to measure prevention,” O’Malley said, before laying the blame for increased homicide rates at the feet of the two Baltimore mayors, Stephanie C. Rawlings-Blake and Catherine Pugh, who were elected after he left the mayor’s office to become governor.
What’s O’Malleys winning formula? Is it the one that has turned Baltimore into the murder capital of the nation?
The Union Leader ran an article today about two felons who have apparently been doing random violent home invasions where the occupants are always beaten and sometimes raped and/or killed. So what is a Democrat’s solution in the comment section after the article? “This is what happens when your state government underfunds prisons….” Sheesh. I responded as follows:
New York City Mayor Mike ‘Big Gulp’ Bloomberg has proposed raising the smoking age in New York City from 18 to 21 years of age. A companion proposal would hike the price of a pack of cigarettes to more than ten dollars per pack, presumably to a) convince more people to quit and b) recover revenue lost by prohibiting a big chunk of the tax base from paying taxes on cigarettes they are no longer permitted to smoke.
But how does New York’s evil super genius plan to recover the revenue lost to the expansion of the black market?
Intruder to police on 911: “I’m taking a shower and the owner came home….” Homeowner to intruder (through door): “Why are you in my house taking a shower?” Intruder to police on 911: “I think they have guns…” Homeowner to intruder (through door): “I’m calling the police.” Intruder to homeowner (through door): “I already have. … Read more
Dear Senator Ayotte,
My letter is inspired by David B. Hart’s letter to you in Friday‘s (April 12, 2013) The Citizen of Laconia. Apparently thinking you were unaware, Hart told you that the Senate will soon consider “common sense limitations on gun violence“, which he apparently thinks would have avoided the Newtown massacre.
The Newtown killer violated dozens of laws, murder, theft, assault, breaking and entering, child endangerment, and many others. Apparently Hart believes that if there had been more laws, the Newtown killer would have thought, “Rats, now I’d be breaking 91 laws and it would be wrong to break more than 88 laws. I guess I’ll have to stay home.”
While that makes no sense to me, Hart is right that we need laws to protect us from one another. We should have laws against harming others, e.g., theft, kidnapping, rape, and murder. Why didn’t anyone think of this before?
The New Hampshire Troopers Association and the New Hampshire Police Association agree.
Legalizing casino gambling wouldn’t endanger public safety but would in fact be a boon to law enforcement budgets, New Hampshire state police and police officers argued Monday.
No more crime than adding a large mall. Troopers are stretched thinn. There are even plea’s for concern over your loved ones waiting for help at the scene of an accident. All because Maggie Hassan’s budget relies on 80 million dollars from a revenue source that does not yet exist?
So you people in New Hampshire, you better forget about any other problem gambling might bring with it because there is no other way to pay for more troopers. Got it.
One more thing.
How does this grab you? So first of all, can it be denied that the vast bulk of violent crime and murder occurs in large urban cities in states that are commonly referred to as Blue? Additionally, even in the so called Red States, the large population centers that exhibit inordinate amounts of crime trend … Read more
Maybe you heard the tale? A Washington Times Communities article (also reported by Newsmax) suggested that the University of Chicago, which owns the Chicago apartment property of former President Ronald Reagan, was planning to demolish it to make way for a parking lot for the Obama Library. According to the people dedicated to preserving that property, that is not true.
The claim published in Newsmax today and the Washington Times on Friday, re-posted in Drudge, that the University of Chicago is planning to demolish the Reagan home at 832 E. 57th Street to make way for a parking lot for the Obama Presidential Library is utterly inaccurate, according to informed sources in Hyde Park.
