Compromise & Division

In 1938 the UK's Neville Chamberlain (Along with the leaders of other European nations) compromised with Adolf Hitler and gave up a large part of Czechoslovakia (Containing ist best defensive positions) to the Nazis, setting the stage for Hitler's greater aggressions. This compromise came at a horrid cost to the World. At first, Western Europe compromised with Mohammed and Muslims, yielding rape, slavery and perpetual war to civilization. In the 1940s we compromised with Stalin (In part to defeat Hitler, in part due to the influence of left-wingers in the USA and the cancer of "pathological pacifism") at a
greater-than-Nazi cost in suffering to the World.

There are some persons and ideologies for which compromise is not only a beginning greater suffering but is a supporting of what is wrong and inherently evil.

It most strongly appears that too many in the USA are of the opinions that "compromise" requires real republicans to bow down to the misshapen policies of the "other party" and to those in the GOP who do not recognize the evil of what such are and of insisting on a policy of "They Shall Not Pass".

[In the case of the ejection-and-rejection of Senator Lugar: That  represents a democratic choice of the People (Expressed in the secret and sacred confines of the voting booth) and an assertion of the commitment of real Republicans and Patriots to the best principles of our exceptional nation.].

What Divides The People Of The USA

  Too many are confused over the basis of that division. Here, I can help define the nature of many such differences. Many US citizens (And legal immigrants) have finally come to an understanding of the following points as "reliable and valid".
1. There is a difference between good and evil.
2. Compromise with evil is evil in itself .
3. There is a difference between knowledge and ignorance.
4. Compromise with ignorance is ignorant.
5. There is a difference between what can be, on a reliable and valid basis, supported by experimental science and that which cannot be, but is too often claimed as "scientifically proven" < span=""><>.
6. There is a difference between the position that real science must constantly reevaluate its propositions and theories (Not equal to each other) and no scientific proposition (eg
The speed of light' Substantial human causes for climate change) is beyond question.
7. Without regard to its "sometimes" failures the traditional marriage of one man and one women has been clearly demonstrated, by history, as the basic-and-best unit of the nation and of civilization .
8. That spending beyond income will result in the ruination of an individual or family or a corporation or a nation.
9. There are major differences between Islam and the world's monotheistic religions
as make Islam the enemy of both any democracy and civilization .
10. The public acts of Mr. B. H. Obama are contrary to the best interests of the People of the USA .
11. That the original intent of the authors of the Constitution (And its amendments) should be the primary base for any judicial decisions as that basic document has NO provisions for "evolving standards of decency" or other judicial inventions BUT does have a prescribed method of change ,

I could list many more of the like divisions in this nation. It will up to the People (And, hopefully, not life-term Federal judges) , through the democratic election of its representatives, chose which positions will be public policy.

I do not see any openings for compromise on the above and many other subjects as they are too basic to the future of the nation.

Speed Of Light & The "Telepathic Twin" Study

      There is a common Science Fiction theme with two telepathic twins, one staying on the Earth and the other leaving on a space-ship. The result, in those stories, is that one twin aging at a rate much different than the other.
This is a different set of conditions than the usual "clock in orbit" experiment where time-and-space are much more constricted than the SF story. These stories assume that telepathic communications are not limited by the speed-of-light.
      Now, what I have wondered is would a reversal through time-and-space of the traveler reverse the time differential or double it?
       This is speculation. But, are there any relevant experiments (As are "reliable and valid" with a high "level of confidence")?

Constitution, Jefferson & Whaling

Much (Too much and in a  too expansive SCOTUS opinion written by an one-time, active, member of the KKK.) has been made as to President Thomas Jefferson's private letter noting his support of the "separation of church and state". Below is his view, also in a private letter, as to interpreting the Constitution.

"On every question of construction carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to to the probable one in which it was passed. "

Please specially note that the term "trying" was used as in "boiling down" something (eg Whale blubber or the Constitution) to obtain what the actors wish (eg Whale oil or perverse decisions by judges "making law from the bench")

Please specially note that Wisconsin's applicable constitutional amendment was subject to repeated votes of our democratically elected legislators and by a direct, democratic and secret vote of the People.

Trading Blacks For Whites

There are some Americans who have suggested that we transfer the USA's "unhappy" Blacks for South African Whites, a move which would tend to increase our schools' test scores, reduce the criminal system's expenses,  Those persons propose that such could be done by: Requiring the out-goers to have an immigration visa from some other nation; Formally renounce US citizenship; Accept some  cash to leave the USA and surrender all constitutional rights if found back in the USA.   White South Africans would be given a reasonable grant to start up life here in a society which could cut back taxes and otherwise provide jobs for them after "The Trade".

For myself, I am very aware of very many Blacks who are superior to myself and most by reason of being fully civilized. These persons are unlikely to wish to leave and would hurt our nation if they did.

religion, history, constitution, law

I have been accused of going back to ancient history (Referring to Presidents Washington, Madison, Jefferson & Lincoln) in dealing with the First Amendment to the Constitution---Especially as to the "separation clause" and the much too neglected "free exercise of religion" clause. OK---Here is a more modern example.
H/T "Dad 29"

OK, scholars.

Who said that our forebears fought for the concept that:  “the belief that the rights of man come not from the generosity of the state, but from the hand of God.”
Hint One:  he was a President of the US.
Hint Two:  he was a Democrat.
Hint Three:  he was elected in the 20th Century.
Hint Four:  Dallas.

Yup.  JFK.

Judges Vs. Governor Walker

US Judge William Conley, appointed by Mr. Obama, struck down much of the public union related legislation passed by the democratically elected members of our Legislature. I do have some questions about him.

1. Did he sign "Recall Scott Walker" or like petitions regarding other democratically elected officials;;
4. Has he been been a dues paying members of any political party since being confirmed in their judicial positions;
5. If so, which party;
6. Since such confirmation, has he contributed to political parties or their candidates;
7. If so, which received his cash contributions;
8. As Wisconsin is a "community property state", were his spouse or children involved in any of the above noted political activities; And,
9. Would any, if any, such demonstration of bias serve to buttress-up any appeal of his decision?


The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's editorial of March 14, 2012, approved a court order to stop enforcement of the "Voter ID Law", was headed "Another good decision...". That implies that there was an earlier and "good" like decision. The earlier decision was rendered in sloppy language by Dane County Judge David Flanagan who had signed a "Recall Walker" petition, the noted and enjoined law being a core part of Governor Walker's program. (It is still unknown to me if that Judge or his wife, Wisconsin being a community property law State, have contributed to the anti-Walker candidate Kathleen Falk or other such sharks.)

The same questions as proposed as to Judge Conley should be asked of them.

The Arab & Muslim Progression

Those who report on the Middle-East, Islam and Muslims too often fail to understand the progression provided below.
1. Myself Vs. my brother---And all the world.
2. My brother and me Vs. our cousins---And all the world.
3. My brother, cousins and myself Vs. our Tribe and Clan.
4. My brother, cousins, clan/tribe and myself Vs. our nation---And all the world.
5. My brother, cousins, clan/tribe and myself Vs. the "other forms of Islam".
6. All of we Muslims (Living in the "House Of Peace") Vs. All "unbelievers" (Who live in the House of War")---According to the perpetual declaration of war proclaimed by Mohammed in the Koran.

To a limited extent, Steps 1-4 may apply to non-Muslim Arabs in such places as Lebanon.

Resolution Of Abuse Cases--Modest Proposal

There is a reasonable solution to cases of allegations of sexual and other criminal abuse as to both public government (eg Schools and police departments) or private agencies (eg All religious organizations) which solution must be on a "shall" basis under our laws. These steps are as listed below.
1. Any such complaint must be by a sworn statement containing a statement of the penalty for "False Swearing" [The public/private agency's "good faith" can be measured on the assistance given in preparing that complaint.]
2. Copies of any such sworn statements to be delivered, by hand or registered mail, to the local police agency and District Attorney, with a copy kept for internal investigation and other legal action.
3. As soon as is possible the complainant must repeat, on oath/affirmation, the complaint before a magistrate, after being advised of the penalty for Perjury.
4, The District Attorney must either issue charges OR refer the complaint to the county's Chief Judge for a "John Doe Hearing".
5. In all cases where the evidence does not support a prosecution or the accused is not found guilty by a Court, the District Attorney shall/must issue charges of False Swearing and Perjury----Without any "plea bargaining" or "deferred prosecution" allowed under law.
6. Any falsely accused person or organization should be allowed triple damages against any false accuser or any organization supporting such offenses against the law and justice.
7. As to schools, the penalties for not reporting such abuse must include the revocation of the teaching/principal/like licenses of staff who fail to properly report abuse.

Lawyers, "License To Steal", Lyrics

License to Steal

Al Stewart

He walks into the room
He's got a briefcase like a bomb
A smile on both faces
And he calls it aplomb

He wants a bite of your apple
Hands you back the peel
He's fresh out of law school
He's got a license to steal

When he offers his advice
You can guarantee
For several hundred dollars an hour
He will see just how many complications
Your life will reveal
He's fresh out of law school
He's got a license to steal

He's an ambulance chaser
A waver of papers
He loves to mix with the movers and shakers
He's taking from them
He's taking from you
Lawyers love money
Anybody's will do
Just take it

He's poking his nose into people's despair
When tragedy strikes he will always be there
Looking so cool
His greed is hard to conceal
He's fresh out of law school
You gave him a license to steal

We've got seven hundred thousand attorneys at law
Nobody can tell me what we need them all for
We should throw them in chains
Chastise them and rebuke them
If it doesn't work
We ought to take 'em out and nuke 'em

Blow a lawyer to pieces
It's the obvious way
Don't wait for a thesis
Do it today
Take him to the court of no final appeal
When you're fresh out of lawyers
You don't know how good it's gonna feel

Koran's "Sword" & Related Verses

The Koran's “Sword Verses”

The verse in the Arabic Qur'an reads

ڪُلَّ مَرۡصَدٍ۬‌ۚ فَإِن تَابُواْ وَأَقَامُواْ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ وَءَاتَوُاْ ٱلزَّڪَوٰةَ فَخَلُّواْ سَبِيلَهُمۡ‌ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ غَفُورٌ۬ رَّحِيمٌ۬

Translations and commentary

• It has been translated into English by the western Islamic Scholar, Marmaduke Pickthall as

  “

  Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.([Quran 9:5]) Abdullah Yusuf Ali has translated the verse as: “ But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, an seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful. Muslim scholar Ibn Kathir's commentary on the verse is: “ Do not wait until you find them. Rather, seek and besiege them in their areas and forts, gather intelligence about them in the various roads and fairways so that what is made wide looks ever smaller to them. This way, they will have no choice, but to die or embrace Islam." Other & Related Verses Muslims consider the Koran as the actual words of Allah and not to be altered by anyone other than Mohammed. verses which preach cruelty, incite violence and disturb public tranquility (i.e., 2:193; 8:39; 2:216; 9:41; 9:123; 66:9; 9:73; 8:65; 8:66; 47:4—15; 8:12; 69:30—33; 8:15—18; 25:52; 9:39; 9:111; 3: 169—171; 4:100; 48:29; 49:15; 2:154; 3:157—158; 8:59—60; 9:2—3; 9:29; 8:67; 4:84; 29:6; 29:69; 61:9—13; 9:36; 9:5; 9:14; 9:20—22; 4:95—96; 8:72—74; 3:142) * verses which promote, on grounds of religion, feelings of enmity, hatred and ill-will between different religious communities (i.e., 4:101; 60:4; 58:23; 9:7; 8:13—14; 8:55; 25:55; 5:72; 9:23; 9:28; 3:28; 3:118; 4:144; 5:14; 5:64; 5:18; 5:51) * verses which insult other religions as well as the religious beliefs of other communities (i.e., 5:17; 4:157; 5:116—118; 98:6; 68:8—13; 38:55—57; 22:19—21; 22:56—57; 5:36; 15:2; 72:14—15;41:33; 4:125; 25:27—29; 26:96—99; 3:85; 8:38; 31:13; 29:41—42; 37:22—25; 37:26—32; 25:17—19; 7:173; 21:66—67; 21:98—100; 16:20—2

Banning The Koran In Spain?

H/T "Gates Of Vienna"
A Pakistani apostate now resident in Spain wants the Spanish government to ban the Koran. Below is the message we received yesterday from “Imran Firasat”, the owner of the Spanish website World without Islam:

I have formally asked the Spanish government through a legal petition for the prohibition of the Quran in Spain.

Many newspapers from Spain and some other European countries have published this news. I would like to request you to publish this very important and necessary news on your website please. We have to help each other in our fight against the Islamic dragon.

My petition calling for the prohibition of Quran is the sign of a grand revolution which we shall bring together against Islam. With this email I send you scans of the petition presented to the numerous institutions of Spanish Government. And below here I send you some links of media which published this news, and then after the links you can find the English translation of the news.

1.		Un pakistaní afincado en España pide formalmente “la prohibición del Corán”
2.		Un refugiado pakistaní residente en España pide la prohibición del Corán por incitar al odio y la violencia
3.		Pakistansk flygtning opfordrer til at Koranen skal forbydes

The English translation of the news:

A Pakistani settled in Spain asks formally “the prohibition of Quran”

“Imran Firasat” A Pakistani citizen with legal residence in Spain as a political refugee has presented an official petition to the numerous institutions of the Spanish government calling for the prohibition of the Quran.

Imran has formally sent the petition to the President of Spain, Parliament of Spain, ministry of the exterior and also to the ministry of the interior. A copy of the petition is attached at the end of this news.

In the document presented to the government of Spain, Imran reveals 10 points which will support his petition for banning the Quran:

1.		The Quran is not a sacred and religious book, but a violent book, full of hatred and discrimination.
2.		The Quran is a horrible book which provokes a community calls Muslims to undertake Jihad, kill innocent people and destroy the peace of the world.
3.		The Quran is responsible for all the terrorism we have seen in recent years in which thousands of people lost their lives.
4.		The Quran is a book which contains evil teachings and forces its believers to capture the entire world and total power at any price.
5.		The Quran is a book which legally permits and incites hatred and violence and for that reason it is not compatible with the modern world including Spain.
6.		The Quran is a book which directly discriminates between human beings.
7.		The Quran is a book which doesn’t allow freedom of expression nor religious freedom.
8.		The Quran is a book which causes women to suffer and be tortured by means of its being full of injustice and macho laws.
9.		The Quran is a book which rather than teaching unity, teaches disunity and in this way it doesn’t allow its believers to form friendships with those who are not Muslims, because in the eyes of Quran they are infidels.
10.		The Quran is a major threat to the free society of Spain. A book which clearly preach the messages of Jihad, killing, hate, discrimination and revenge. For that reason it can’t be compatible with the Spanish system in any sense. It is a book totally contrary to what the law and constitution of Spain say and it incites hatred and violence in our country. NOTES A. In the USA its Constitution would likely ban such a ban. B. However, our laws do provide additional penalties for those involved with terrorist organizations, even if not directly involved in criminal-terrorist acts, AND, against such organizations as such. C. The following organizations have been so designated: Animal Liberation Front; Alpha 66 & Omega 7; Army Of God; Aryan Nations; Black Liberation Army, The Covenant, The Sword and the Arm of the Lord; Jewish Defense League (?); Ku Klux Klan; May 19th Communist Organization; The Order; Phineas Priesthood; Symbionese Liberation Army, United Freedom Front; And, The Weathermen. D. That designation was based on: The stated goals of those groups; The self-approved means towards those goals; And the unlawful acts of ONLY SOME OF THEIR MEMBERS. E. The goals of Islam include: The destruction or heavy suppression of all other ideologies and of all religions; Killing all Jews; Rule of all nations only by Muslims and that by a most undemocratic, single, ruler; Replacement of all legal systems with Sharia without regard to the democratic sources of those other law systems; Subjection of all women and all non-Muslims to the will of adult, male, Muslims; Subjection of all educational systems to Islamic standards, Etc. F. The approved and often command Islamic means to achieve those goals include: Murder; Genocide; Enslavement of others; Rape, Banditry. Lying; Vengeance; And other like violations of both Natural Law and just systems statutory laws. G. THEREFORE, no person can be punished for possession of or publication of the Koran OR, as an individual, for being a Muslim or proclaiming the teachings of Islam. H. HOWEVER, and-and-all Muslim organizations (Such as Mosques, CAIR) can be declared terrorist organizations and held responsible for acts-of-terrorism by imposing civil and criminal penalties. This should be done asap for the protection of the Republic and its, still free, citizens. Ceterum autem censeo Islam esse delendam---ex Cato Novo SANTIAGO Y ESPANA!

Obama's Declaration Of War Vs. Constitution

Mr. B. H. Obama has declared war against all who would resist his efforts to destroy the rights guaranteed by the Constitution. In addition to parallel attacks he has most clearly declared that war against all Catholics who oppose the use of tax moneys to support abortion and birth-control and do so on the basis that such is a violation of the right to the "free exercise of religion".

Many citizens, other than Catholics, have also concluded that Mr. Obama's attack against Catholic-citizens is an attack on the constitutional rights of all citizens, without regard to their religions---Or lack thereof.

Perhaps it is that Mr. Obama (Due to his education in a Muslim land and by agents of the far and very anti-religion Left) has not absorbed the lessons of History that deep (Chiefly Christian) religious faith (And not the rule-of-caliphs or that of atheist-dictators as Hitler or Mao or other tyrants) is at the heart of our freedoms.

B. H. Obama's war against the Constitution is NOT limited to the "free exercise of religion" provision of the First Amendment. He has, sometimes directly, attacked the "Fist Amendment" (aka The Second Amendment) through allowing his Attorney General to involve BATF agents as law-breaking "straw buyers" of weapons. His attacks on the "separation of powers" provisions of the Constitution are almost without number. (They should be numbered and listed in a "Bill Of Impeachment").

If, and only if, Mr. Obama is contemplating the use-of-force (Armed Federal agents OR Orders from his tame judges) to enforce his unconstitutional directives, he should remember that the victims of tyrants sometimes react as our political ancestors did in 1775. Since Mr. B. H. Obama appears to be ignorant of US history, I suggest that he consider the statement (Paraphrased) of a militia officer at Lexington: "If he wants a war, let it start here!".

For myself, I will consider all of the supporters (eg Democrat Members of the Congress, members, NOW, DNC and such as support Mr. Obama's attack equally liable for the reactions of patriots.

Non-Resistance As Sin

There are some (Pathological) pacifists who maintain to use force (Especially deadly force) to resist criminal attacks and evil persons/movements/ideologies is against the will of Jesus the Christ. That is sooooo wrong!

Most specially, where there is a criminal threat of death, failure to resist is a form of suicide which has been described as the ultimate sin as it denies hope in the saving grace of God. Such is also a most insulting rejection of the Natural Law, given to all by God to all humans, containing the right of self-defense (And, by extension, the defense of innocent others).

The Christ's concern for children (And other innocents) is well supported in the Gospels. Failure to defend such against criminal assaults appears to also be a violation of that Natural Law and, by extension, of Jesus' concern for children and the "meek".

If, and only if, there is some sin in resisting evil (Even by deadly means), then the non-suicide of resistance allows for obtaining God's forgiveness at some future time (If, and only if, such is truly required in such cases).

Of course, at the beginning of such criminal attacks it is impossible to determine if non-resistance will bring death and the threat of such is warrant enough for any level of resistance.

You might reflect on the value of resisting (By prior-and-preventive liquidation) those KKK monsters who bombed some young girls, in a Southern church building, too early out of this world. You might consider the effect of even one bullet or dagger-thrust as to stopping or, at the least, slowing down the beyond-horrible crimes of Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao. Mohammed and those who they convinced-or-forced to follow them.

For myself, I will place my trust in Divine Justice (Justice, not suicidal peace being the proper center of the Will of God) and stand my Judgement (Which will come in a very few years)---And continue to resist evil by word and, if that Justice allows it to me, by affirmative deed.
============================================================
Doubters may wish to consider the instructions of St. John The Baptist to the soldiers, the Christ's evaluation of the Centurion and St. Paul's support of the use of deadly force to inflict justice on evil men. Catholics may also wish to consider the advise of St. Bernard of Clairvaux (A "Doctor of the Church"), in his De Laude Novae Militae, as to the pre-conditions AND the sometimes need to "strike blows for Christ".

Caucuses Are Anti-Democracy

The use, by some political parties, of "caucuses" to directly-or-indirectly select candidates for presidential nominating conventions is very much in opposition to the best, democratic, traditions of the USA! Why?
Because they exclude: Members of the Armed Forces who serve well away from their home towns; Many fire-fighters (Many of whom serve 24-hour shifts); Police officers (Many of whose actual work hours exclude caucus participation); Medical professionals who may are assigned to work during caucus hours; Over-the-road truck drivers; The old, infirm and sick who still have active minds but cannot travel to caucus locations or tolerate the conditions of such meetings; And, many others in like straits.
Although some have cited such court cases as have concluded that such caucus systems are the "property" (Within the jurisdiction) of the sponsoring political parties. However, there are other court cases which have noted that those parties must provide for the equal treatment and paticipation without regard to race. The exclusion of the above cited (And other) Ameicans is as much a violation of our best principles---If not the Constitution.

Archbishop Dolan VS Full Natural Law

Archbishop Timothy Dolan has (Again?) addressed the matter of Natural Law as basic
to respect-for-life (A). Yet, he (And so many others within and without the Church) inflict the same platitudes on use and avoid the "hard questions" as to Natural Law.

Those (eg Archbishop Timothy Dolan) who present "glittering generalities" about the above noted subjects should be prepared AND should be required to address the following questions and points.
1. Does, in fact, Natural Law strictly allow the innocent to protect themselves against the attacks of the unjust?
2. Does the absence of such civil-or-military forces who are both able and willing to provide immediate-and-effective protection magnify that right to self-defense?
3. Does the absence of such immediate-and-effective government protection specially allow the innocent to have the means (ie Modern firearms and other weapons) to enforce the Natural Law right to self-defense?
4. Does that right stop at the first hesitation of the criminal-attacker OR extent to the prevention of such attacks in the immediate future? At some longer interval when the attacker has clearly indicted an intent to continue such attacks?
5. Does Natural Law extend a right OR duty to protect the innocent against like criminal attacks?
6. Does Natural Law (As understood by the Church) allow for the use of deadly force to protect the lives of innocent others?
7. Does the Church admit that Islam's teachings, goals and methods all combine to encourage, if not command (As the expressed will of the Allah of the followers of the false prophet Mohammed), murder, rape, banditry, genocide, suppression of all true religions and of all other ideologies as well as that of all women and all Non-Muslims?
8. Does the Church still accept or now deny the validity of the teachings of that "Doctor Of The Church, St. Bernard Of Clairvaux (In his De Laude Militae Novae; E.), that it is sometimes necessary, if not required, that the faithful "Strike (Deadly) Blows For Christ"---If, and only if, the Christian warrior is without selfish or illicit motives? In doing so we would be "Good Shepherds".

If, and only if, Archbishop (And others) wish to teach about Natural Law, protecting life and like subjects, he (And they) must address the "hard questions" lest he (They) fail of the duty to fully teach "The Splendor Of Truth"

Vocational Education In/For Wisconsin

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel should be thanked for its publication of Mr. Buckley Brinkman's column ("Shortage requires unified effort"; Jan. 1. 2012; Page-4J) supporting vocational education and the self-direction (Or, guiding) of our youths towards trade-and-vocational education and careers.

It would have been much better to have printed it on Page-1J and "above the fold" as the editors did for the platitudes and "glittering generalities" they inflicted on its readers, from "professional educators" and other self-serving politicians, some few weeks ago.

Yet, I think that Mr. Brinkman too conservative as to specific recommendations for the good of our youth and our economy. Below you will find a partial list (I invite additions or alternatives) towards the above cited goal.

1. The selection of vocational school board members is: Archaic and does not represent the many and accelerating changes in our economic world as "quotas" are set for persons of certain positions; And, is most undemocratic as as the People do not select those members from the best qualified candidates (Who, in a direct election, could tout such factors as work experience, prior vocational education, union membership, industrial-executive experience and like factors). Therefore, I suggest that vocational board members be directly elected by the citizens who pay for those schools.
2. As Mr. Brinkman mentioned student loan debt, I suggest that student loans for our many vocational schools be: Limited to those students in GED/HSEHS ED and purely vocational/professional programs (eg Fire fighting, Nursing, "Body Shop"; Plumbing); And, excluding those (eg Liberal Arts, ESL) for which the onus of payment should be on the student and not the tax payer---Especially in the light of loan defaults on such "non-economic" loans).
3. To maximize returns on the investment in vocational education all "Affirmative Action" programs or any "quotas" must be eliminated.
Entry must be for the best qualified applicants as based on "cultural fair" educational (Reading and mathematics skills) and job-related skills as might be obtained from natural ability, out-of-school-learning and tested by such means as are familiar to guidance and vocational-rehabilitation counselors.
4. It would be best if we were not wasting tax moneys on such programs that over-produce technical school graduates for whom there is only a limited (Or, nonexistent) demand. Therefore one State agency must ask other governmental units, unions, professional and industrial organizations (eg Auto Body Shop owners) Etc. to submit (eg Once every two years) their data and conclusions as to the numbers and needs for trained workers over the following ten years AND their recommendations as to the types of training & retraining (Do not forget Mr. Brinkman's comments as to the changing nature of our technology) needed to meet those goals.
Those who do not wish to cooperate should be "reminded" that they will be cut out of relevant, job filling-and-producing, private-sector-union-building and profit-making decisions-and-actions.
The data collected and processed must result in decisions as to which programs are to be established or expanded or suspended or cut-back or eliminated.
5. The regional differences in such results must not be ignored.
6. The unions and business interests cited above should be "solicited" to underwrite
(eg An up-to-date Body Shop training center)---Especially where there is a considerable demand for some particular cluster of training OR retraining skills.
7. In exchange for all of the above efforts and expenditures by business and union interests, we should change our State's laws (And Constitution) to allow, as necessary, binding (NOT subject to bankruptcy proceedings, for which some "waiver" might be necessary from the Congress) "Apprenticeship Contracts" (aka Indentures) to "bind" young workers to specific employers for set periods-of-time, performance standards, pay rates and other such matters. [There may be a body of well tested and applicable law and models still in place in Germany upon which Wisconsin-specific laws could be crafted.]
8. All appropriate high school staff must be retrained as to counseling students on the opportunities offered by vocational training and careers----And, evaluated as to their performance in that area. State Superintendent of Schools "Tony" Evers should also be evaluated, by editors and the People, as to his performance in this area.

I look for relevant, creative and true action by Governor Walker, the Legislature and other State agencies.

STOP! Rethink U-Wisconsin Education

UW President Kevin Reilly is reported touting the goal of boosting the number of university graduates in Wisconsin. It appears that he is claiming that such would aid the luring of companies to our State and the boosting of Wisconsin's economy.

If, and only if, those are the goals of UW they would be better served by enacting and enforcing the following steps:
1. Eliminate all "remedial education" and related "coaching" programs within UW (With many savings in staff costs);
2. Admit to both undergraduate and graduate (eg Law and medicine) programs only the academically best qualified by, among other means, eliminating all "affirmative action" policies and programs (For more such savings);
3. Make it a matter of UW policy that quotas are to be set-and-maintained for designation as "undergraduate majors" and graduate programs in proportion to the economic demand for persons, with such degrees, in our labor market (For myself, I suggest that there may be more persons being issued degrees in Social Work, Black Studies, Women's Studies and like areas that there is any, if any, demand for by employers);
4. Reduce the number of "Assistants" and "Deputies" in all academic positions by not less than 50%, a change which will save millions-of-dollars and that without any probable harm to students.
5. Required that a set part (eg 50%) of patent-licensing-fees, copyright-payments "earned" by UW faculty and other staff while employed (And using UW facilities and staff to develop or publish) be paid into the General Fund of the State or, at the least, UW's General Fund and NOT siphoned off to some entity not under the control of the Legislature or Regents.

Most importantly, it appears (On the basis of the best information available to me) that the real need of our employers will be persons trained in manufacture-related skills by our excellent Technical Colleges (Which should take the same cost saving measures noted above)! Therefore, the Legislature and our Governor should focus more state resources (Dependent on execution of the cost savings measures noted above) on those technical college AND inform UW that it must control AND cut-back its spending as outlined above.

Islam And Slavery

The Koran views slavery as a “permanent fact of human existence” and “explicitly guarantees Muslims the right to own slaves” (See “Islam's Wretched Record On Slavery”; Front Page Magazine; 11-10-02; By Mr. Serge Trifkovich), In that article Mr. Trifkovich gives further evidence of he horrors of slavery in general, but especially as to the length of such slavery by “muslims”, the working-to-death or castration of most such slaves. (Unlike the USA or Brazil or other places where the descendants of slaves are form a great part of the populations, the lack of such descendants in Arab nations, along with the record of Arab enslavement of Blacks, support the fact that such slaves were not allowed to breed, it being “more economical” to enslave work ready adults.)

On CCW, Liability, Constitutions & "Posting"

The usual "much heat and little light" has been generated by those opposed to our democratically elected Legislature ruling that no minimum number of hours of "gun training" is needed to obtain a permit to carry concealed weapons.

Beyond consideration of the carrying of weapons is a basic constitutional right (Endorsed by President Thomas Jefferson, the Supreme Court of the USA and the People of Wisconsin in Article-I, Section-25 of their Constitution) all should remember that the carrying of such lumpy devices is a personal choice. Doing so puts such free citizens as exercise that right at very great personal risk of arrest, imprisonment, lawyers' fees, costs and damages if they use-or-misuse weapons---Even if found "Not Guilty" in any criminal case AND found not financially responsible in civil cases.

From a political-philosophical point-of-view it is important that the decision to carry or use weapons is a personal and not "nanny state" choice. The many persons, chiefly in "certain neighborhoods" who have been illegally carrying and criminally misusing guns for many years made their personal choices. I doubt me that those who get CCW licenses will demonstrate any parallel patterns of misuse---As demonstrated in those States which have "must issue" CCW-permit laws---Without regard to the training received.

When my CCW-permit arrives, I will carry to, if nothing else, exercise a constitutional right too long suppressed by the proponents of the "nanny state" and other forms of tyranny.

Those who persecute, rather than ethically-and-legally prosecute gun carrying and self-defense-using citizens are tyrants. They must and shall be removed from appointed or elective office.
