Random links of interest, concern or curiosity from the past week or so, that deserve at least a SHORT mention:

 
Who Killed MLK’s Dream? ~ It’s been 50 years since he was murdered. Unfortunately, as Mark Alexander writes, today’s Democrat Party race hustlers have turned Martin Luther King’s dream into a nightmare for millions of urban black Americans.

 
Of Course Not All Vegans Are Dangerous Lunatics, But… ~ Wondering why the YouTube shooter has vanished from the headlines? Lefties have swept it under the rug since they can’t get any mileage out it to advance any of their progressive causes. On the other hand, James Delingpole is having too much fun with the story to let it go ~

(I)t’s an unfortunate fact that a significant minority are imbued with exactly that toxic mix of fanaticism, burning outrage and weapons-grade self-righteousness you find among all the most ruthless terrorists.

 
Mom outraged after son was sent home with ‘white privilege’ pamphlet ~ This latest Cultural Marxist trend even offends the demographic it’s meant to empower ~

What was most heartbreaking to Pabon was how it affected her son’s identity.
 
She says that after he came home with the paper, he asked her ‘Mommy, are white people better than me?’
 
Pabon is outraged about the pamphlet because she thinks her son is too young to learn about systemic racism.

 
Nunes Demands Document That Started Russia Investigation, Threatens Legal Fight ~ Shouldn’t we have seen this like a year ago? Can we finally end this sham once and for all? ~

After recapping the numerous attempts he has made to get the requested documents, Nunes threatened immediate legal action if the documents are not produced within one week.

 
India: Baptism service violently halted by Hindu mob claiming ‘forced conversions’ ~ More of the growing persecution Christians in India are facing as I wrote about HERE ~

Around 20 Hindu extremists in saffron-coloured clothes barged inside a church in eastern India’s Uttar Pradesh state yesterday (28 March), violently assaulting the pastor and two church members.

 
Chinese Sperm Bank Limits Donors To Those Who “Love The Socialist Motherland” ~ Nature or nurture?

Communist donors will receive 5,500 yuan (£622; $872) but must be found to have “favorable political qualities.”

 
LGBT Activists Vow to Shut Down Christian Ministry, ‘Your Faith be Damned’ ~ These extremists are now actually trying to make your personally-held beliefs illegal! (Sounds like the adherents of a religion-which-shall-not-be-named.) ~

(Stephen Black, who lived as a gay man for 8 years, over 35 years ago, and now Executive Director of First Stone Ministries) is the author of a ground-breaking book that reveals that 70-percent of people who want freedom from a destructive same-sex lifestyle find it. In “Freedom Realized Black” and his colleagues examined 25 years of case files and found incontrovertible evidence that people can and do change.[…]
 
Gay advocate and protestor, Sara Cunningham, vowed to close First Stone Ministries (she appealed for a $25,000 grant from Starbucks for her mission). Her goal is to mobilize and eliminate any mention of the possibility of change, even if people want it and even if it means a transformed life.

First Stone Ministries recently hosted a screening of a new documentary titled Tranzformed: Finding Peace With Your God-Given Gender. Naturally activists planned a loud and angry protest.
 
These LGBT radicals are serious ~ Chilling: Police investigate stay-at-home mom for tweets against transgenderism ~ This happened in the UK but we could be next. Apparently transgenderism is the latest ‘human right’ to suddenly be discovered – and it will soon be a crime to believe otherwise.

 
The Media Matters thuggery behind the astroturfed boycott of Laura Ingraham ~ In case you missed all the controversy (It’s Saul Alinsky’s Rule #13) ~

(H)iding behind a child, the despicable thugs (at Media Matters) are pushing for advertisers to boycott Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show after she mocked 17-year-old Parkland shooting survivor and anti-gun activist David Hogg, for which she has since apologized.

Thank heavens, Fox didn’t cave (yet) because this isn’t about Ingraham personally, it’s about trying to take down an effective conservative voice – and Fox News itself ~ Fox News Releases Statement About Laura Ingraham’s Future At Network ~

We cannot and will not allow voices to be censored by agenda-driven intimidation efforts. We look forward to having Laura Ingraham back hosting her program next Monday when she returns from spring vacation with her children.

 
London murder rate beats New York as stabbings surge ~ Gun-grabbers take note; London is a gun-free zone. It’s not the guns – it’s the evil in men’s hearts ~

London murders for March are also likely to exceed or equal New York’s. By late last night there had been 22 killings in the capital, according to the Metropolitan police, against 21 in the US city.

 
There Is A Giant Crack In Africa Now ~ Uh-oh ~

The crack, which opened up in the East African Rift Valley — one of several major rift valleys that wind their way across the African continent — is 65 feet long and 50 feet deep, and it has already swallowed part of a highway and a good deal of local farmland. And it’s growing […]
 
Fortunately for Kenya’s residents, the rift will probably continue peacefully separating for the next 50 million years — and it’s likely humanity won’t be around to see Africa break into two separate continents.

 
Student gov impeaches student for conservative views ~ More tyranny from the intolerant left ~

Andrew Minik, president of Turning Point USA at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, was impeached from his position as Chair of the Committee of Diversity and Inclusion (CoDI) after enduring a hearing that included accusations of using his own minority status to marginalize other minorities.

 
It Is Settled. He Is Risen ~ Be of good cheer!

It does not matter how dark the day. It does not matter how hopeless the situation. It does not matter how bleak the circumstances. Jesus has risen from the dead! That’s all you need to know.
