Go ahead, Grandpa, make my grey day

Miranda Devine
February 7, 2009

My GP says every second patient he sees is 90 and they all have the following ailments: “Every joint is gone; all have heart disease, insomnia, bladder problems, incontinence, cancer.” They are “wearing out”. A lot are on 20 different pills and no one really knows how they interact. Some patients shuffle into his office and say they are simply tired of living….(Full Story)

F4L: Miranda Devine review of the movie “Gran Torino” gives full credit to the feat by Clint Eastwood, who made the movie “Gran Torino” in 32 days and turned it in a #1 box office hit that is even now, after running almost two months, still in number three position.

It is hard to deny success like that, but success in the box office does not mean a tidal change in social attitudes towards the elderly.

Miranda Devine recounts how Walter Kowalski (played by Clint Eastwood, age 78) saves “a young South-East Asian neighbour from local gang members. Like Eastwood’s Dirty Harry, Walt has some memorable one-liners, such as: “Get off my lawn!” - said with a rifle in his hands. Walt sits on his verandah drinking beer and muttering racial slurs at the immigrants who have taken over his Detroit suburb….”

I have not seen the movie yet, but I have seen a fair bit of life.  Unlike what is insinuated in the movie, namely that a 78-year-old Grandpa can succeed in saving his neighbourhood, in real life it is far more likely that he would be neutralized.

He would be neutralized as surely as the sun rises in the East, not by the neigbourhood gangs but by the local SWAT team of the police. A 78-year-old man with a rifle is no match for a SWAT team with body armor, armed and trained for urban warfare.

In real life the end of the story would have come fairly early on, right after Walt Kowalski delivered the Dirty-Harry-like one-liner, “Get off my lawn” - rifle in hand.

Miranda Devine closes her review of “Gran Torino” with:

Why, if old age is all insomnia, worn-out organs and crippling medical costs, does society bother with it? Alford cites an old African saying, “the death of an old person is like the burning of a library”. Old guys remind us there are other ways of being human.

That, too, is a wishful thought, but it is no more influential than to celebrate emerging life at the other end of the range.

Such celebrations are necessary to make the pruning of life at both ends of the age range less acceptable, but for now it is quite alright to kill children not yet born at the rate of about 50 million each year in the world.  The day does not seem far off when the killing in such numbers of those about to die of old age will bother no one any more than the killing of children about to continue life outside their mothers’ wombs does.

Humanity declared children to be a luxury, a luxury we can’t afford and must therefore kill.  Children grow out of being unproductive.  Still, it is doubtful that it is wise to kill children regardless of an age-limit for culling them.  The children we cull don’t fight back.  They are not only innocent but powerless as well.

There are far more compelling reasons for the killing of the elderly.  The elderly are not likely to regain their productivity once they have lost it due to any health reason, even if it is nothing more than the feebleness that comes with old age.  Still, they can, just as Clint Eastwood did in “Gran Torino”, pretend that they have enough power to resist whatever is being done to them. It may make them feel better.

The Man the Left Wants Hanged for Tax Cheating (And my goodbye to MND)

By Warner Todd Huston

Tax troubles were all the rage for certain folks recently. ABC News screamed in a headline about one fellow that was, “America’s Overnight Sensation… Owes $1,200 in Taxes.” Huffintgon Post was all up in arms over the same story. The San Francisco Chronicle was tsking the fellow for being “concerned about increased taxes - but hasn’t paid his own income taxes.” The Chicago Tribune chided this figure for being “delinquent on his taxes.” It was a crime, they all said. An outrage. This is not to even mention the unhinged, screaming mimis of the left blogosphere that dug in like pitbulls to excoriate this notorious tax cheat….

Let’s get one thing clear, here. Samuel J. Wurzelbacher was NOT running for any office. He was just a citizen trying to ask a presidential candidate a simple question.

And now we have that very candidate, now the elected president, fielding a score of tax cheating candidates of his own for important offices in our government.

And this is on top of Obama’s own murky tax troubles that the press was not so interested in discussing during the campaign….(Full Story)

Muslim Grannie: Jihadi By Day Rape Coordinator by Night
from MND: Your Daily Dose of Counter-Theory by Warner Todd Huston

-By Warner Todd Huston

Folks, this is the kind of sickness we are facing with the world wide Jihadi assault on civilization. Here we have the heartwarming story of kindly grandma Um al-Mumenin. She’s just the local little old lady that all the kiddies love, that’s all. She bakes cookies, loves the kids and instructs all the local young ladies on the fine art of suicide bombing. Yep, she’s an all around community organizer, she is. But, before she takes up the important instruction of all those girls eager for martyrdom, she arranges to have them raped so that later when she recruits them they are mentally “prepared” to feel that suicide bombing is the only way to regain their lost “honor.”

Ain’t she just the cutest lil’ ol’ thing?…(Full Story)

Dead boy’s parents sue province

Negligence claimed in $400,000 action over foster child

By Laura Drake

The biological parents of a three-year-old boy killed while in foster care in 2007 are suing the provincial government and the foster mother convicted of manslaughter in the child’s death for $400,000 in damages.

The parents are seeking the money “for grief and the loss of the guidance, care and companionship” of the boy, as well as expenses related to the boy’s injuries, funeral, grief counselling, along with other damages….(Full Story)

F4L: The article mentions that, “None of the parties can be named in order to protect the identity of the boy.”

What is there to protect?  The boy is dead!

It appears to be more likely that the parties are not being named to protect the guilty.

Protecting the boy should have been done to prevent the murder of the boy.

Homicide charge avoided

The common-law wife of a man who died from his injuries won’t be charged with homicide, police said.

Julie Starr, 40, was charged with aggravated assault after Andrew Rademacher was found last June lying on a patch of grass across the road from McCauley Elementary School. He died in hospital five days later….(Full Story)

F4L: Did she truly avoid a homicide charge?  It looks more like the crown prosecutor either decided or was pressured into not laying a homicide charge.  Such cases apparently do not set out to discover the truth but serve to justify a predetermined conclusion, namely that women are victims and never guilty of having committed violence.

That stands to reason.  After all, it is not that women are not violent, but that there always are mitigating circumstances for them.  If it was not her husband or any other man who made her do it, then the next in line is the devil or her inner demons.  If everything else fails, the poor murdering “victim” can always claim that she just could not help herself and just had to do it.

Moreover, giving such a woman a sentence for manslaughter (often two years less a day) or in this case “aggravated assault” for killing her boyfriend, husband or child will permit the powers to set her free after she served at most one-third of her sentence, while often it happens that a woman who kills someone in her family gets away with nothing more than a conditional sentence.

Of course, it will be determined that she is not at risk of re-offending (even though many violent women do).  But if she does, nothing is lost and much to be gained by the legal industry every time she does re-offend.  In addition, a conviction for a lesser crime officially proves that women are not violent, that they are merely always the victims of violence who act only in self-defence when they commit violent acts.  That is then on the record and proves it: the myth of female innocence is “true”!
