‘Minor-attracted people’ is an attempt to sanitise child abuse

The rise of this new, politically correct term for paedophiles should set off alarm bells.

Won’t someone think of the feelings of paedophiles? It seems some public bodies have, and they are willing to change the language of their output to accommodate the sensitivities of this most dangerous group. Between Christmas and New Year’s Eve, Police Scotland were blasted for referring to those who abuse children as ‘minor-attracted people’, or ‘MAP’, in a report for a European Commission project. It seems that, just as fat people are now euphemistically referred to as ‘plus size’, and men in dresses have been rebranded as ‘transwomen’, child abusers are considered, by some, to be just another minority whose preferences deserve respect.

‘I didn’t know what racism was until I joined the RCMP’

For three years, the RCMP officer had come to see Margorie Hudson at the Berens River First Nation, on the eastern shore of Lake Winnipeg, and tried to persuade her to become the first

Indigenous woman in Manitoba to join the force.

In the third year, Hudson relented, wrote the exam and was accepted.

She recalls clearly the first words she heard as an RCMP trainee from the man who had been recruiting her.

“‘They’re accepting you,’ he said, ‘But don’t ever quit. Please don’t ever quit,’” she recounts. “I said, ‘Why?’ He said, ‘Because they think you’re going to quit because you’re an Indian.’

Why Canada has the most activist Supreme Court in the world — and how it’s changed the country

Often, if there’s a massive political controversy gripping the country, there’s a good chance that the Supreme Court of Canada had something to do with it.

Ontario was recently driven into a miniature constitutional crisis due to a Supreme Court decision declaring that striking is a Constitutional right. A series of recent Supreme Court decisions kneecapping bail and sentencing provisions has helped fuel a crisis of “catch and release” justice. And, of course, Canada is now experiencing regular incidents of contentious assisted suicide cases — a regime whose existence is due entirely to Supreme Court order.

All Is Not Quiet on the Eastern Front

War is hell on earth — and if you doubt it, visit Ukraine or watch Edward Berger’s All Quiet on the Western Front, Netflix’s gut-wrenching new adaptation of Erich Maria Remarque’s classic antiwar novel of 1929.

Even a small war is hellish for those caught up in it, of course. But a world war is the worst thing we humans have ever done to one another. In a memorable essay published last month, Henry Kissinger reflected on “How to Avoid Another World War.” In 1914, “The nations of Europe, insufficiently familiar with how technology had enhanced their respective military forces, proceeded to inflict unprecedented devastation on one another.” Then, after two years of industrialized slaughter, “the principal combatants in the West (Britain, France and Germany) began to explore prospects for ending the carnage.” Even with US intermediation, the effort failed.

‘It’s Not His Country, It’s Ours’: The Russian ‘Partisans’ At War With The Kremlin

Mystery fires that have broken out across Russia in recent months have been blamed on Ukrainian saboteurs and even Western intelligence operatives. But a new documentary by British filmmaker Jake Hanrahan suggests a “large-scale, active resistance inside Russia” is now being waged by Russia’s own citizens.

“There’s this thing like, ‘Well, it must be the CIA,'” Hanrahan told RFE/RL when asked about the spate of attacks on war-related infrastructure inside Russia. “How about, ‘No’? How about some Russians are genuinely so sick of Putin that they’re going to do something about it.”

House adjourns with no speaker after Kevin McCarthy falls short

WASHINGTON — Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy failed to attain the required votes to become House speaker on the first three ballots Tuesday — leaving millions of Americans wondering how long the power struggle will last.

McCarthy (R-Calif.) could only lose four Republican votes in his bid to replace former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), but watched as 19 GOPers balked on the first and second ballots and were joined by a 20th defector on the third.

The House adjourned Tuesday evening without a resolution, scheduling a fourth round of voting to begin around noon Wednesday.

The United Nations for Empowering Terrorists

According to the United Nations, the deportation of a convicted Palestinian-French terrorist from Israel constitutes a “war crime.”

This is the same UN whose officials hold meetings on a regular basis with leaders of Hamas, the Palestinian Islamist group designated as a terrorist organization by the US, Canada, the European Union, Japan, Australia, Israel and the United Kingdom.

This is also the same UN whose representatives have failed to condemn Hamas for building tunnels beneath schools run by the United Nations Relief and Work Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the Gaza Strip.

Nolte: Cord Cutting, Faltering Streaming Services Brutalize Woke Hollywood

Far-left Axios blames the ongoing trauma in the entertainment industry on everything but the one thing causing that trauma: awful, awful content.

Households cutting their cable/satellite TV cord jumped to ten percent in 2022. Even if you figure in those who canceled their cable/satellite package and jumped to what’s known as a “skinny bundle” (or a cheaper form of cable TV), the drop is a full six percent.

If they took my advice they’d be OK. For instance are you doing a Historic Civil War Drama? Simply add racialized dwarves and gay elves and voila instant classic.

Rest assured the same formula can be applied across genres.

‘We’re in a space race’: Nasa sounds alarm at Chinese designs on moon

The US is locked in a space race with China and the country needs to “watch out” that its rival does not gain a foothold and try to dominate lunar resources, Nasa’s top official has warned.

The assessment came from the Nasa administrator, Bill Nelson, a former astronaut and Florida senator, who went on to warn that China could eventually claim to “own” the moon’s resource-rich areas.

The contest between the US and China, he added, was intensifying and the next two years could determine which country achieves an advantage.

What’s behind NYE attacks on German police, firefighters? Sensible Authorities Call For Immigration Reform … Usual Suspects Suggest Toxic Masculinity At Fault

… While the suspects have yet to be formally identified, the national head of the German Police Union (DPoIG) Rainer Wendt told Focus magazine: “The prevailing impression among the emergency services staff is that groups of young men with immigrant backgrounds took part in the riots to a disproportionately large extent.”

This was echoed by Herbert Reul the conservative interior minister of the most populous state of North-Rhine Westphalia who was quoted in the mass-circulation tabloid BILD, and former federal health minister Jens Spahn also of the center-right Christian Democrats (CDU), who took the opportunity to call for a rethink of immigration policy.

Above- literally the last two paragraphs of the article.

Lunatic Electric Vehicle Mandate Will Cost at Least $99 Billion: Environment Canada

A recently proposed federal mandate that would require all vehicles sold in Canada to be electric by the year 2035 will cost at least $99 billion, according to new government figures.

“The proposed amendments are expected to lead to a loss of consumer choice as the non-zero emission vehicles which are preferred by some will eventually be phased out of the light duty vehicle market,” wrote Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault’s department in a regulatory notice on Dec. 31, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.

These morons are making stupid decisions that will endanger your future.

Mayor John Tory plans $48.3-million increase in Toronto police budget

Mayor John Tory announced Tuesday that he plans to increase the police budget by almost $50 million this year, a move he said was necessary to keep communities safe, but which immediately sparked opposition from critics who say more officers aren’t the answer.

At a press conference at city hall, Tory said the additional $48.3 million in police funding would represent a 4.3 per cent increase compared to the force’s 2022 budget.

The money will go toward initiatives like expanding the Toronto Police Neighbourhood Community Officer program, and hiring 200 officers, the mayor said.
