It’s back – or should I say, it’s still here! The “Climate Change Advisory Group” will be reconvened by the BOCC [Clallam County Board of Commissioners] if they pass a Resolution on June 19, 2018 to suggest changes due to “possible” changes in the climate (can you say, ‘weather’?), with supposed dire effects, like storm surges, forest fires, lack of snow in the mountains and water shortages.
The sky is ‘not’ falling.
Of course, there will always be temporary weather effects due to natural events like volcanoes. But to blame people for changing the climate, and to regulate them on that premise, is just wrong. (more…)
Quite frequently, we hear Republicans, and our President, called “Fascist.” But words mean things. And we should ask – what does the word “fascism” mean, and does it apply to the actions of the Republican Party and those who represent it?
Here is a simple, clear explanation of the term, from Dinesh D’Souza.
UPDATE: An additional public hearing will be held on July 17, 2018 at 6 p.m. at the Clallam County Courthouse in the Commissioners’ Room. Be sure to let your voice be heard, either through a letter or email to the Commissioners, or by showing up to testify.

On June 19, 2018 at 10:30 a.m., the Clallam County Board of Commissioners will be holding a public hearing before passing an ordinance create inordinate requirements, regulations and fees, which would make it impossible for families or small groups to include small fireworks in their home celebrations.
Creating a new Chapter in the Clallam County Code titled, “Fireworks”.
(Read the proposed ordinance here: Fireworks proposed ordinance)
The proposed ordinance would virtually make it a crime, subject to a $250.00 fine, for families or small groups to enjoy consumer fireworks (you know, like sparklers, fountains, Roman candles and other fun times for all members of the family, as they celebrate our independence on the 4th of July).

Leaving the classroom, Arron told me, “I couldn’t settle down today. I forgot to take my pill. I have ADHD.”
My thoughts returned to the recent Florida high school shooting, my research about the prescribed psychiatric drugs connection to mass shootings, and Dr. Peter Breggin’s extensive work on this topic including ADHD drug consequences.
Listening to Dennis Prager’s numerous discussions about the Florida shooting, the psychiatric drugs and mass shootings relationship appeared unknown to special guests or callers and even to Dennis. Would nihilistic leftists and their media’s reliance on victimhood to advance Second Amendment obliteration broadcast such critical information? (more…)
If it wasn’t hard enough for a kid to be a kid these days, count on elected officials and special interests to make it even harder by setting all kind of different ages to separate childhood from maturity.
The law says that you automatically become an adult at age 18. By in large, this is true. At 18, one is considered: independent from his or her parents, capable of entering into legal agreements, an adult in criminal or civil proceedings, and competent to make life-impacting decisions and render consent in many matters. One day younger and the person remains a child for legal purposes, and thus, not competent under the law to make decisions without parental assistance unless the decision is to obtain an abortion. Here the underage girl may or may not be considered capable of making such an important decision depending on the state of residence. (more…)
You know, as a conservative Republican, I have always had a problem with the fact that many people refer to the “Democratic Party” when what they really mean is the “Democrat Party”. Just because it is comprised of those that identify as Democrats does not necessarily make it democratic.
The term democratic is defined as relating to or supporting democracy or its principles and the term democracy is defined as a system of government through elected representatives. (more…)
