“In a country where the sole employer is the State, opposition means death by slow starvation. The old principle: who does not work shall not eat, has been replaced by a new one:

who does not obey shall not eat.” Trotsky

It does little to be right due to the laws of man,

Political Correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd or stick of dynamite by the safe end. - unknown

Gun Control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her own pantyhose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police

how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound.

E vil S ports P ermeating N ationwide

With the "Super Bowl" fast approaching, Sharky&Sharky thought it appropriate to bring to your attention just how deeply sports driven greed has affected this country.

No longer are colleges the monetary incubation starting point into which Big Sports has evolved, high schools want in as well.

Enter Broward School Board in Florida. Blanche Ely High School wants a new state-of-the-art scoreboard and is willing to sacrifice in order to get it. Sacrifice what you may ask? Needless educational things like: school repairs, new computers, buses and books. What student needs anything more than a scoreboard with an incorporated 7 1/2 x 24 foot video screen? The hell with education.

And of course, Blanche Ely is a traditionally black high school that has felt slighted over the years as other schools have technologically moved on with their scoreboards.

Board member Patricia Good is awaiting feedback from superintendent Robert Runcie before making a decision. Why? According to Good, "I need to hear from him on how this would impact our revenue." Looks like a lot of advertisements from the likes of McDonalds are slated to appear on this much "needed" scoreboard.
