This is the Boulder County Commissioners’ area of expertise, and we can hope the youth pictured here are consuming organic marijuana.

Capitalism for dummies (we all know who they are)

I hope that these animated short features won’t go over the heads of progressives who support AOC and Bernie . . .

Dissatisfied member of Boulder Rights Watch, in his own words:

Copied (unedited) from the BRW Facebook page:

Shawn Schwartz a great many people have lost faith in darren o’conner for turning a blind eye to the issues affecting the homeless, and playing them out to be race issues, including helping those in houses, ignoring those without houses going through it, and still playing like he cares about homeless rights. i recorded at least 5 conversations with darren, they are on my youtube channel. he admits to these things, so its not slander.

Margret Sanger, eugenics, and the origin of Planned Parenthood

See Eugenics and Birth Control from American Experience on PBS by clicking here.

Excerpt copied below:

Margaret Sanger’s birth control movement and quest for the Pill intersected the rise of the eugenics movement in America. At a time when birth control was still not publicly accepted in American society, some eugenicists believed birth control was a useful tool for curbing procreation among the “weak.” In the 1920s and 30s, Sanger calculated that the success of the eugenics idea gave her own movement legitimacy, and tried to ally her cause with the movement. Eugenics was a dominant theme at her birth control conferences, and Sanger spoke publicly of the need to put an end to breeding by the unfit. In 1920 Sanger publicly stated that “birth control is nothing more or less than the facilitation of the process of weeding out the unfit [and] of preventing the birth of defectives.”

Continuing excerpt:

Some African Americans believed that Sanger’s motive was not to aid black women but to eliminate future black generations. In promoting the development of the birth control pill in the 1950s, Sanger had heralded it as the panacea to world overpopulation, starvation and hunger. Sanger wrote: “I consider that the world, and almost our civilization for the next 25 years, is going to depend on a simple, cheap, safe, contraceptive to be used in poverty stricken slums, jungles and among the most ignorant people.” Although African American women appreciated the effectiveness and reliability of oral contraceptives, and used the method in large numbers, they resented the way white-dominated organizations seemed to push the Pill in black communities.

Which brings me to one of the most shocking things I’ve read in a very long time:

Ordinarily, I dislike “gotcha” tactics in obtaining the truth, but there are times like this one when it’s the best way . . . We’ll never see abortion rights activists marching with signs in favor of “preventing the birth of defectives” or touting birth control in “slums, jungles, and among the most ignorant.”

Shades of the Master Race:

Safe, legal, and rare — the phrase coined by President Bill Clinton — seems to be giving way among more extreme abortion rights activists to borderline infanticide. TRUTH: Not even Roe v. Wade gives complete license to terminate pregnancy up to the moment of birth. A few fanatics even oppose medical intervention for babies who somehow survive the abortion procedure in the third trimester, claiming that they should be left to die outside the womb.

Is this something that progressives really want to advocate? Only the power of the state matters, not the rights of the most vulnerable among us . . .

Another Zayd Atkinson enabler, debunked

Copied and tweeted from elsewhere on the Internet, and I post it here to illustrate how phony some liberals are — wouldn’t know the truth if it kicked ’em in the ass:

At least we haven’t heard any more drama from that copycat, transient Sammie Lawrence, who seems destined to appear at every Boulder City Council meeting to cry about the police here treating him with less force than he’d experience from cops in most other cities.
