6. CANADIAN FEMINISTS CRY FOUL OVER POSTERS ABOUT WOMEN CRYING WOLF
Yet more keening progressive outrage was sparked (do these people ever get tired?) in Edmonton after a series of posters appeared throughout the town claiming that women sometimes make false rape accusations. The Calgary Communities Against Sexual Abuse claimed the posters “try to make a point that is absolutely false, inaccurate and 100% incorrect.” Karen Smith, executive director of the Sexual Assault Centre of Edmonton, said, “I want to make it clear that that is so inaccurate. It just doesn’t happen.” We know you’re trying to keep your jobs, ladies, but you’re wrong”€”it happens all the time.

7. WREAKING VENGEANCE ON THE SOUTHERN AVENGER
Eternally smirking lesbian pundit Rachel Maddow dragged former Taki’s Mag contributor Jack “The Southern Avenger” Hunter into her Star Chamber last week to smear him as a “white supremacist” and warn that if the GOP doesn’t start openly pandering to nonwhites and smirking lesbians, it will forever be known as “the party of aggrieved white people.” Hunter, a current aide to possible 2016 presidential contender Rand Paul, was held to task for such egregious thought crimes as pointing out that Mexicans are applauded for expressing racial solidarity while whites are banished beyond the pale for even making a peep in that direction. What remained unspoken is the idea that if the Republicans openly sold themselves as “the party of aggrieved white people,” such refreshing honesty might ensure they’d never lose another election.

8. TARGETED BY THE MEXICAN SHAKEDOWN
Three former employees of a Target department store are suing the chain over a “Racially Offensive Document” that, upon reading, seems more like a clumsy attempt to achieve “outreach” with uneducated and unassimilated Mexican workers. The document, titled Organization Effectiveness, Employee and Labor Relations Multi-Cultural Tips, counseled against stereotyping. Helpful hints included “not everyone eats tacos and burritos,” “not everyone dances to salsa,” “not everyone wears a sombrero,” and “some may be undocumented.” The lawsuit comes as a slap in the face to Target, who recently washed their hands of Paula Deen for once referring to a black man who’d held a gun to her head as a “nigger.” One hopes that sooner rather than later, businesses will stop kowtowing to “those people””€”which includes racial whiners and their enablers in the legal system”€”because their sense of “justice” at times seems to be nothing more than greed and bloodlust.

9. HO LEE FUK, WAS THAT FUNNY
Bay Area TV news station KTVU recently found itself with egg drop soup on its face after an announcer read an obviously fraudulent list of the alleged pilots of the fatal Asiana flight 214. The station, which previously boasted that its coverage of the tragedy was “100% accurate,” let quality control slip to the point where an announcer read off the names “Sum Ting Wong,” “Wi Tu Lo,” “Ho Lee Fuk,” and “Bang Ding Ow” without blinking. The scam was traced to a mischievous “summer intern” at the National Transportation Safety Board, which apologized profusely along with KTVU.

10. MAN HAS SEX WITH FLOTATION DEVICE IN PUBLIC…AGAIN
Last Wednesday, an Ohio grand jury indicted 34-year-old Edwin Charles Tobergta on charges of public indecency for, according to a police report, having “sexual relations with a rubber pool float.” The alleged act was espied by a ten-year-old girl who is now reportedly afraid to go in her back yard. Two years ago, Tobergta had been arrested after being spotted “engaging in sexual conduct with a pink inflatable swimming pool raft.” He had previously been charged with public indecency in 2006 and 2008. A neighbor described Tobergta as a “nice guy.”
