You Will Be Surprised Which States Spend Big Money on Police
*Chris Edwards* *Politics, Americas* Citizens should also ask questions about police budgets. Amid the outcry over George Floyd’s death and subsequent protests, some people are calling for defunding the police. Zeroing out the police doesn’t make any sense, but citizens should certainly be looking at issues of police mismanagement, hiring practices, labor union protections, and accountability. Citizens should also ask questions about police budgets. The Census Bureau reports that in 2017 state and local governments spent $115 billion on police, which represented 3.1 percent of o... more »

The ongoing Captain Cook korero
*James Cook (1728-1779), painted by Nathaniel Dance-Holland [public domain]* The insanity has come to New Zealand. At the very time that the number of students studying history are showing a rapid decline, the politicising of history is on the way up. *So it starts with tearing down statues of slave traders and it ends with a school in Sussex ditching its plan to name one of its houses after JK Rowling because she has dared to criticise the cult of transgenderism. What a deranged week this has been. Statues toppled or defaced by middle-class mobs haughtily taking offence on behalf... more »
America is Black and Blue
(By *American Zen*'s Mike Flannigan, on loan from Ari.) *L*et's talk about Julie Kavner for a minute. No, I didn't append the wrong lede to the wrong headline. There's a method to my madness. Now, on social media, I sometimes make friends with and am followed by celebrities. On Facebook, for instance, I'm friends with Carl Reiner and Tommy Chong, to name just two. I was also at one point, friended by Valerie Perrine until it became obvious all she was interested in was in accumulating eyeballs in her pathetic attempts to revive her sagging career.

Jonathan Pie Might Not Be A Household Name In America, But He Should Be.
Sir Winston Churchill Chaos is king in progressive politics at the moment and in America the tendency is to believe all outrage is organic and borne of latent rage over the sins of our past.

Across the pond, the current outrage is much more organized than organic and more political than polemic. Otherwise, why would the English outraged be so invested in the local affairs of a Midwestern U.S. state? With g... more »
