Inspired by the Slice Harvester's visit, I went to check out the weirdness and dragged along an exceptionally indulging lady. A slice of pizza, egg drop soup, and a pair of sandwiches, how could you go wrong? Pizza was decent, maybe 6/10. Soup was tasty but lukewarm. Sandwiches were very tasty, french fries were lukewarm. Coffee was good for a diner. Will be returning.

Just posted this on Yelp as well.

Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer, who allocated $750,000 of city funds toward the new center, said, “the borough of Queens is better and safer today because Planned Parenthood is here.”

“This is one of the most beautiful buildings in my district,” he added. “It is so full of light, and air, and color, and it’s really all about hope.”

No, abortion is not really about hope. It's really about killing.

Although they concede that the girl's condition is stable, Amnesty International claims that the girl must have an abortion to save her life, and that Paraguayan authorities are refusing to "grant her right to a safe abortion." Amnesty International is running emotionally compelling advertisements on social media and urging people to sign a petition directed to a panel that is considering the girl's case.

There's something fishy about this.

Indeed.

Who do they work for?

If I seize someone, handcuff them, lock them in a room, and leave them to die, I will suffer severe consequences. I will lose my job, especially if I acted while performing my duties. I will go to jail. I will suffer catastrophic personal financial losses. My name will be broadcast far and wide.

That's the difference between me and a federal employee.

The DEA agents who arrested Andrew Chong for smoking dope and left him to die got reprimands or suspensions that were shorter than my last tension headache.

Popehat calling it like it is, as always.
