It’s a challenge to comment on a piece with which I agree completely.
The authors self-identify as “conservatives,” and say their POV over the years has changed.
As I glance again at the lead paragraph, two caveats: (1) I speak in part from my own experience behind bars; and (2) I don’t care too much what the majority population fears; my world is a permanent high-crime district.

The details here are a bit hard to follow. I’m just glad to see Democrats being taken to task.

This is such a kick in the groin, in so many ways.
Is this guy my competition?
Again, I may be in several contests here, all of which I’m destined to lose.
There is the eternal question of whether one who looks “that way,” is “that way.”
And all the dynamics of romantic attraction remain a mystery to me.
In short, the article suggests that a majority of women just really get turned on by guys whose notion of manhood is diametric from my own. You can’t provide for your family when you’re locked up.

Thursday, July 10, 2014. Doing my normal thing this morning at McDonald’s: stashed my belongings at a table, got my coffee, went out for a smoke break.

The misguided zeal of certain factions appeared in the June 9, 2014 disruption of Eric Cantor’s primary election-night party at the Westin Hotel in Richmond, VA. A band of angry, (apparently) anti-Cantor, pro-illegals demonstrators burst into the room just after Cantor had exited; albeit he had just lost the primary, and by many reports that cost his enemies the presence in Congress of the only member who could deliver what they wanted.

I cannot imagine what sort of parent would send his or her child unaccompanied to a foreign country.

I really do believe we can do well to pray for them.
To paraphrase a pertinent post at Messiah Truth:
Some teach that natural disasters express G-d’s wrath upon creatures’ sin. As in Katrina, Sandy and Tsunami; preachers at chapel specifically told us that G-d blessed Baltimore in sending Sandy elsewhere.
The honeybees are in trouble. These species, that have been staunch friends to humanity for millions of years, are now being plagued — literally. I want to ask those teachers, “What did they do to deserve this?”
