Security Costs of Boston Marathon Quadruple since 2013

On Monday morning, former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis committed a gaffe (i.e. the Kinsley definition meaning a politician telling the truth).

Asked by Maria Bartiromo about the Boston Marathon, Davis responded, “There’s been a significant increase in spending on security here; the costs have quadrupled over what it was in 2013.”

But he didn’t mention the dollar […]

Pope Rescues 12 Muslims To Demonstrate How Europe Should Surrender to Islam

Pope Francis must have snoozed through Jesus’ instruction to his apostles to be “Wise as serpents” (Matthew 10:16) when preaching the Good News. Otherwise the pope wouldn’t have invited a dozen Syrian Muslims to reside in the Vatican. The group was composed of three families, including six children — appealing now, but some of them may grow […]

Boston Prepares Security for Upcoming Marathon

April 15 is the third anniversary of the Boston Marathon bombings, and the area is getting ready for this year’s run, which takes place on Monday (Patriots’ Day, the third Monday in April). Given the terrible attacks of 2013, anti-jihad precautions are now a big part of the world’s oldest annual marathon.

One of the effects […]

Minnesota: Still Trying to Prevent Jihad with Expensive Social Programs

How insane is a government policy that continues to import a tribe of people who resist assimilation and present a danger to the law-abiding citizens? Furthermore, that group — the Somalis — requires extensive expensive programs to keep the young male combatants from blowing up the place, and those programs don’t work. When an American […]

Government Screening Won’t Stop Second-Generation Jihad

Sunday’s New York Times had a cautionary tale, but perhaps not the one it intended. Silicon Valley executive Sal Shafi worried that his 22-year-old son Adam (pictured) had turned to jihad and contacted the FBI with his concerns. The young man was arrested and in December he was indicted by a federal grand jury, accused […]

“Surged” Syrian Refugees Arrive in Missouri for Resettlement after Quickie Vetting

Wait, haven’t we been assured many times that Washington’s screening of refugees takes years so we needn’t worry that headchopper Muslims will be resettled in our neighborhoods? Last year the New York Times compiled a 20-point checklist for Mohammed: Why It Takes Two Years for Syrian Refugees to Enter the U.S.

But orderly examination is so […]

European Elites Conspired to Lie about the Islamic Enemy

It’s hard to figure exactly how Europe became so dangerously insane. Certainly extreme liberalism has created a cascade of bad ideas, like all diversity is wonderful and mistrust of Islam is evil racism (even though a person of any race can be a Muslim).

Below, more than a million refugees and economic moochers arrived in Europe […]

Rasmussen Poll: Support Remains for Trump Muslim Ban

It’s interesting that agreement with Donald Trump’s call for a temporary halt to Muslims entering the country have not been dissuaded by howls of outrage from Islamic pressure groups. Certainly it helped the cause of sanity about security that FBI Director Comey stated clearly that Syrians in particular could not be adequately screened to keep […]

Border Patrol Agents Union Endorses Trump

Donald Trump made his first big splash as a presidential candidate by speaking honestly about the crushing problems of immigration, particularly the illegal variety. His pledge to build a big border wall with Mexico paying for it is a hu-u-u-u-ge crowd pleaser during campaign speeches.

His attention to immigration issues convinced the National Border Patrol Council […]

Expensive Diversity Spills into Sports: San Francisco Super Bowl Cost $3 Million Just for Local Police Overtime

High profile sports events make enticing targets for jihad-minded barbarians, a fact highlighted by the bombings of the 2013 Boston Marathon in which three were killed and hundreds injured.

As a result of sensible caution, the price tag for policing big sports is flying off the charts. A real jaw-dropper was the $2 billion cost to […]

Rasmussen Poll: Majority Say Don’t Try to Fix Islam with Nation-Building

Islam is a big ugly problem facing the world. There’s 1.6 billion of them, so the murderous headchopping polygamous misogynous supremacist “religion of peace” cannot be easily ignored, particularly when they have brought their barbaric culture with them to Europe and America.

But teaching them about democracy in various nation-building programs, such as in Iraq, have […]

Germany Moves to Protect Women by Segregating Them in Trains

Chancellor Merkel’s policy of welcoming literally millions of mostly Muslim foreigners into Germany has immediately transformed the nation and much of Europe into a far more dangerous place for its female citizens. A major signpost was the mass attack against women on New Years, co-ordinated across several cities.

But there have also been less noticed examples of […]
