Separate But Equal

The University of Colorado is going to have segregated dorms for CCW holders. This is just going to spur another lawsuit against the hoplophobes. Here’s a similar story with the actual CU press release. But this is the first time I’d heard this:

Less than 1% of CU’s student-body population is believed to have concealed-carry permits.

One such permit holder, a graduate student at CU-Denver, catapulted into notoriety last month after allegedly carrying out a midnight massacre at a crowded suburban Denver theater. There has been no indication that accused Aurora shooter James Holmes brought guns to campus.

I haven’t done an extensive search, but I can’t find anything to back up the “fact” that Homes had a permit. I would have thought this would have been a huge part of the story if true, and used to bash permit holders.

Hatred

How it became a “liberal” value. Of course, these people were never true liberals.

Lessons from the FRC shooting. I think that the SPLC is much more a hate group than the FRC, but that doesn’t justify anyone shooting them up.

SPLC, inciting hate and violence. Morris Dees doesn’t care about poverty, or the law. He’s just a money-grubbing scumbag.

A “Progressive” Insurance Company

I had never paid much attention to Progressive Insurance, and knew nothing about them except from the ads. Well, it turns out that they’re appropriately named (well, at least the limited degree that it is appropriate to call leftists “progressive”):

According to Mark Progressive offed to pay 1/3 of the claim, (I presume his sister paid 3/3 of the preimums regularly) when that was turned down it went to court and what did Mark see at the table of the fellow who drove the car that killed his sister….

At the trial, the guy who killed my sister was defended by Progressive’s legal team.

If you are insured by Progressive, and they owe you money, they will defend your killer in court in order to not pay you your policy.

Strangely enough Peter Lewis the Chairman of the Board, biggest stock holder and former CEO has no problem making big payouts to other causes such as $2.5 million to Move On.com and 3 Million to Americans Coming Together (both matched by George Soros) according to Snoops.com

Well, I know where I’m not going to buy my insurance in the future.
