Quit the EU.

To those who didn't know, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and European Union have said that it is a violation of human rights to 1) give life sentences (forget about death sentences), 2) bar convicted criminals in prison from voting, and 3) deport criminal illegal immigrants with families in the country.

Imagine someone murdered your children in front of you.  Now imagine that not only can you not seek the death penalty, but you can't even seek life in prison.  Wow!

Some in the UK are upset about this, as they should be, but it seems like most of the government is going along with all of this BS.  I used to respect the UK.  I have very little left for it now (as a general concept.  Of course there are many great individuals who live there).

The EU is a crock, and I see it more and more.  And the UK has become a follower.  It's quite pathetic what a century has done.  It's like after WWII, people said to the UK, "You've owned much of the world for quite a while.  But how would you like to have control of your internal affairs dictated by a government overseas?"  Then, the UK responded, "Well that's a jolly good idea!" and decided over the next few decades to not only give up its colonies, but to also give up its own sovereignty and become a colony.  That's how I think of the UK now.

To European countries that haven't joined the EU yet such as Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Turkey and some former Yugoslavian countries, I say stay out...for your own good.  The EU does not equal Europe.  You might think that you're "cool" if you're part of the club, but I think it's best to stay out.  Don't give up your sovereignty.

 Below is a link to an article about some of these things:

In Defense of...Cecil Rhodes?!

You all know Cecil Rhodes, right?  He was a British Imperialist (living from 1853-1902) who founded the De Beers diamond mining and trading company.  Just this morning, I came upon a post comparing him to Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Cecil Rhodes killed at least 60 million Africans.  It has been shared 99 times.  Here is the post: https://plus.google.com/+TonyJefferson/posts/CZ6HW3AxDo6 Unlike many, I decided to do some research on it.  That is my nature.  I don't accept things without evidence given, and even when no evidence is provided, I search for evidence.  If after looking, no evidence is forthcoming, then I discount the claim unless compelling evidence does surface.  After my research on this topic (taking up about an hour of my day and 28 open tabs on my browser...but still an enjoyable time because this is what I like to do), I found that my initial skepticism was well justified and that this comparison is incorrect.  Adolph H...

Inconvenient History – The Barbary Slave Trade

Once upon a time, slavers ravaged the coastal towns of the European continent. Eventually, the response to that would include clear proof that the United States is not founded on a religion. Soon thereafter, European imperialism would become the driving force for the abolition of slavery around the world. Continue reading to learn more. The Barbary Slave Trade is a relatively small part of the Arab Slave Trade, which itself is only one part of the Islamic Slave Trade (which besides Arab slavers, includes Turks enslaving Europeans and Africans, Muslim invaders of India and Sub-Saharan Africa, Malay enslavers of local minorities, and other Islamic slavers). For example, the Arab Slave Trade may have enslaved up to 18 million people over its span (not including those born enslaved), while the Barbary Slave Trade enslaved some number over 1 million. Bear in mind that this number is three times the number of enslaved people (roughly 388 thousand) sent to the area of the United Sta...

Biden Just Won The Election

Biden just won the election. I just watched the first debate. It was a disaster for Trump. I pretty much saw the entire debate, and I haven't listened to any pundits (who can never be trusted to give an accurate review). Not only was Biden lucid, but Trump would not stop interrupting. I think Trump was trying to "be Trump", instead of trying to be natural. But he must have had a false idea of what "being Trump" is. He must have seen ownage videos of himself on the internet and thought that should be the entire debate. But he forgot that the highlights were well-timed, humorous quips like "Only Rosy O'Donnell" and "Because you'd be in jail". Unfortunately, he made none of those well-timed, humorous quips in this debate. Instead, he would not stop interrupting, and he showed himself in a bad light. Most people who support one candidate or another can never admit if their preferred candidate lost a debate. But if your stomach drops and y...
