Spanking Your Child: A Felony
In Corpus Christi, Texas, it’s a felony to spank your child and leave red marks:
Judge has harsh words for Mom before sentencing her for spanking her kidRosalina Gonzales had pleaded guilty to a felony charge of injury to a child for what prosecutors had described as a “pretty simple, straightforward spanking case.” They noted she didn’t use a belt or leave any bruises, just some red marks.“You don’t spank children today,” said Judge Jose Longoria. “In the old days, maybe we got spanked, but there was a different quarrel. You don’t spank children.”Rosalina Gonzales had pleaded guilty to a felony charge of injury to a child for what prosecutors had described as a “pretty simple, straightforward spanking case.” They noted she didn’t use a belt or leave any bruises, just some red marks.As part of the plea deal, Gonzales will serve five years probation, during which time she’ll have to take parenting classes, follow CPS guidelines, and make a $50 payment to the Children’s Advocacy Center.
She was arrested back in December after the child’s paternal grandmother noticed red marks on the child’s rear end. The grandmother took the girl, who was two years-old at the time, to the hospital to be checked out.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: am I ever glad I never had children, much less had to raise them in this current Leftist environment.
Spanking your child is now a felony.
So in lieu of that, one applies what, pray tell? Sarcasm?
And note, if you will, it’s not sufficient that the mother be placed on probation; she needs mental governmental reprogramming as well. Coming soon to a local court near you, if it isn’t already present.
In the meantime, we need to let more druggies, pedophiles, armed robbers, gangbangers and murderers out of our prisons because, after all, I’m sure that spanking placed them right where they are and conditions are bad in prisons.
So remember: if a child is crying, a parent needs to be jailed.

Press 1 For Spanish; Press 2 For English
Is anyone, like me, so damnably tired of a phone or ATM menu which asks you for your so-called “native language” — in the United States of America?
“Press 7 for Urdu.”
“Press 9 for BC Aramaic.”
“Press 11 for Central Siberian Ket.”
Um so weiter. . .
So when I hear and read of GOP Texas Senator Chris Harris (Arlington) interact during testimony:
Antolin Aguirre of the Austin Immigrant Rights Coalition was testifying against Senate Bill 9 that would help crack down on illegal immigrants in Texas. Aguirre spoke through an interpreter even though he had been in the U.S. since 1988.
Two minutes into Antolin Aguirre’s testimony, Sen. Chris Harris, a Republican from Arlington, interrupted asking Aguirre’s interrupter, “Did I understand him correctly that he has been here since 1988?” Harris asked. “Why aren’t you speaking in English then?”
Through his interpreter, Aguirre said Spanish is his “first language and since it is his first time giving testimony he would rather do it in Spanish.”
I’m with Texas Senator Harris: not only is this insulting, but it’s stupid, retrogressive, assumptive and racist.
The man speaking before the Texas committee has been in an English-speaking land since 1988. In that span of time no one has apparently had the guts to point out the obvious: you’re an Ignorant Mexican Parasite.
So, in TWENTY-THREE years, since 1988, this man had a CHOICE every day of his life.
Do I learn English or do I decide to subsume?
He purposely chose to subsume the easiest, most recognizably-Victimist path.
Though, in truth, he enjoyed the many benefits of the United States of America. He didn’t mind that at all.
A few years ago, a Mexican business in Reno, Nevada thought it cute to fly the Mexican flag above the American flag. An honest American Patriot responded:
And set things right. He was interviewed here:
I’d care for your thoughts now.

Obama Admin Blocks Drilling In Alaska
And, once again, clear information that the Obama Administration wants three clear things:
1. The American economy to tank;
2. Reliance on foreign oil and no energy independence;
3. Further control of individual American lives via transportation and all aspects aligned with the production, refining and distribution of various forms of oil;
From Greenwire:
Obama Admin Objects to Alaska Oil and Gas Development Bill
By PHIL TAYLOR of Greenwire
Published: June 16, 2011
The Obama administration today said a proposal from House Natural Resources Chairman Doc Hastings (R-Wash.) to expedite oil and gas leasing and energy infrastructure permitting in an Alaska reserve could force federal regulators to flout environmental laws and includes a costly, redundant resource assessment.
This is HR2150, proposed by Hastings.
In the meantime, the Obama admin continues to speak in terms of nothing but energy tax hikes, known as Cap and Trade — which in truth is Cap’N Tax.
Hastings said:
Americans are feeling the pain at the pump as gasoline prices climb towards four dollars a gallon. Tapping the SPR may provide some temporary relief but we must consider America’s long-term energy security. For two years, the Obama Administration and Congressional Democrats have fought nearly every attempt to insulate America from unstable OPEC countries by opposing job-creating American energy development. The SPR is specifically for situations when there is a dramatic supply shutdown or shortfall of oil on the world market. Short-term releases of oil from our strategic reserves does not replace the 300,000 barrels a day this Administration has squandered due to inaction on offshore drilling permits, nor will it put the thousands of people in the Gulf back to work. We can protect against future price spikes, spur our economy and create good paying jobs by moving now to develop untapped reserves in the Gulf, Alaska, the OCS and our public lands.”
So yes, let’s simply let oil die on the vine because we have so much more other infrastructure already built. Surely, as everyone knows, we have the capability to transition over to another energy base in, what, a week or two?
Of course.
Just ask a Leftist.
