They just launched a submarine for “both” genders. What about the other 50?

Snitches Get Suspensions
A middle schooler reported that a fellow student had live ammunition at school. He received the same suspension as the kid with the ammo. Why? He waited 2 hours to say something.

The Battle of the Courts
We are in a situation where the courts are divided along ideological lines. In a continuation of yesterday’s post, we see that a judge in Nort Dakota has declared that, since the state constitution was established to ensure life, liberty, and happiness, women have a constitutional right to kill their unborn children, if that is what makes them happy.
So again, why can’t that same logic be used as an excuse to own artillery pieces, kill people that you don’t like, or use LSD while driving down the highway, if that is what makes you happy?
It is my opinion that judges walk into the court room with a preconceived idea as to how they want to decide the case, and then twist the law and the constitution to fit that view.

Make This Make Sense
The Ninth Circuit made this ruling on so called “sensitive places” where states can prohibit firearms:
- Parks, athletic facilities and similar areas. Gun bans there are likely constitutional.
- Playgrounds and youth centers. Gun bans there are likely constitutional.
- Bars and restaurants that serve alcohol. Gun bans there are likely constitutional.
- Places of amusement, including casinos, stadiums, amusement parks, zoos, museums and libraries. Gun bans there are likely constitutional.
- Parking areas connected to certain sensitive places. Gun bans there are likely constitutional.
- The private-property default rule. Hawaii’s rule banning guns on private property unless the owner gives consent orally, in writing or on a sign is likely constitutional.
- Places of worship. State-mandated gun bans there are likely unconstitutional, but nothing prevents the owner or operator from banning firearms.
- Gatherings that require a permit. Gun bans there are likely unconstitutional.
- Financial institutions. State-mandated gun bans there are likely unconstitutional, but nothing prevents the owner or operator from banning firearms.
- Hospitals and other medical facilities. State-mandated gun bans there are likely unconstitutional, but nothing prevents the owner or operator from banning firearms.
- Public transit. A broad ban on carrying guns on public transit is likely unconstitutional, but a narrower law allowing the carrying of unloaded and secured firearms would likely be constitutional.
It’s a Mish mash. It isn’t even consistent. Where in the Constitution is this even found? Where in the history and tradition of the country was there a ban on weapons in bard? Casinos? But not hospitals, churches, or banks?
If you argue that schools are sensitive places and rights can be suspended to protect children, then why not suspend the First Amendment there and disallow faggotry?
Our courts are just as partisan and divided as the citizens. It’s long past time to admit that this nation is too large and varied for one set of rules to work for everyone.
Anti American left
Double Standards
Burning the flag is protected speech, but signing one should get Trump indicted again?
If it weren’t for double standards, the left would have no standards at all.

Rights Watch Tab Clearing
Getting rid of a bunch of tabs that expose infringements on our rights, but that I just didn’t get time to write a post on:
- The Democrats want to pass a law codifying the Chevron deference.
- Forcing everyone to pass through magnetometers is a violation of search and seizure clause, but NY does it anyhow.
- HOTUS says that she won’t interfere with EC vote counting on J6, 2025. Of course she won’t. The interference will be completed in November.
- You can’t photograph things happening on Public Property unless you are a member of the official media, or you must pay money to a private company.
Me
Work
The hospital laid off 25 nurses from the emergency department last month, and are simultaneously complaining that we are working too much overtime. As I point out the next paragraph, keep in mind the company refusing to pay overtime that was worked by their employees due to their mandatory training.
The mandatory training this month is for ethics in the workplace. Here is the company’s official definition of ethics:
Ethical conduct means acting in a way that follows company values and the law.
What? Since when are laws or company policies ethical? It was the law in Germany to kill Jews. Segregation was the law. Your company policy mandates that we do this gay-assed training, even though you will try to get out of paying us for it.
As a thought exercise, they ask what you would do if you discovered 10 extra vacation days in your account. Would you tell HR, or would you take the vacation? Let me flip that- let’s say that you forced your employees to work an extra 12 hours on mandatory training, but you were already over budget and the company doesn’t want to pay the expense of overtime? Do you simply erase the hours from employee’s time cards, or do you pay them?
Yes, I am looking for a job. Sure there are lots of nursing jobs, but most of them are in the jobs no one wants to do, like home health care or working in a nursing home. No thanks. It’s the hospital slow season because the snowbirds aren’t here, so there aren’t a lot of good jobs available until winter. So, I may not find a job that I like for another few months yet.
