April 29, 2012 – Enid, Oklahoma teen was severely beaten while playing dodge ball at the Longfellow Middle school on Tuesday.

This incident was documented on the police report as a “Hate/Bias” crime, but in today’s climate of political correctness the term “hate” crime of course means nothing more than “thought” crime. A crime is a crime and just because someone might call you a derogatory name does not make the crime anymore severe. This is politically correct bull shit. All in the name of candy ass folks who have been conditioned to think they have a right not to be offended.

This incident in Enid has nothing to do with racism or some bull shit hate crime. Based on the information I’ve un-covered from the police report and several comments from school officials is that a teen got his ass kicked for saying something derogatory to the other young teen. There may have been some bigotry going on but not racism. Big damn difference.

I’m certainly not taking sides in this recent case, just making the point that getting your ass kicked by someone who isn’t the same color or nationality as you does not instantly mean it was racially motivated. These were two kids at school playing, which turned into a fight during a game of dodge ball and someone got mouthy when they got pushed. Yes it went too far and yes the punk who threw the first punch should pay the consequences. But this was not racially motivated! -JRoycroft

In fairness to the school, here is their statement on the incident : Enid School Comment

April 29, 2012 – What does it tell us when the United States Secret Service, under the Obama regime can’t even carry itself in a professional manner?

Now they are required to have baby sitters! -JRoycroft

Embarrassed by a prostitution scandal, the Secret Service will assign chaperones on some trips to enforce new rules of conduct that make clear that excessive drinking, entertaining foreigners in their hotel rooms and cavorting in disreputable establishments are no longer tolerated.
