Monday Short Cuts

“Self-defence is a part of the law of nature; nor can it be denied the community, even against the king himself.” —John Locke

Insight: “Self-defence is a part of the law of nature; nor can it be denied the community, even against the king himself.” —John Locke (1632-1704)

Braying Jenny: “[The Obama White House] was like having the ‘good parent’ at home. The responsible parent, the one who told you to eat your carrots and go to bed on time. And now we have the other parent. We thought it’d feel fun — maybe it feels fun for now because we can eat candy all day and stay up late and not follow the rules.” —Michelle Obama

Braying Jackass: “We are seeing a divide in this country that is as significant as when we had slave states and anti-slavery states. This rural-urban divide — people in rural areas of Colorado and across the country feel like the urban areas have just left them behind and don’t care.” —Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper

The BIG Lie: “What I’m telling you is the only way [Louis] Farrakhan gets in the news is if somebody tries to say, ‘Oh, this black person whose whole life is dedicated to human rights met him or saw him or was in a room with him.’ It’s a smear, man. … The Black Caucus in particular has been targeted with this smear. The Black Caucus has fought for justice more than any other caucus in the United States Congress, period, and that’s who is being questioned about whether we really stand against hatred. It’s offensive.” —DNC Vice-Chairman Rep. Keith Ellison

Non Compos Mentis: “No excuses: there is never a reason to carry a knife. Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law.” —London Mayor Sadiq Khan on his city’s recent spike in murders (“I carry a knife everywhere I go and I find dozens of uses for it, none of which include murdering people.” —Matt Walsh)

And last… “Britain used to be the most powerful empire in the world. Now they’re terrified of pocketknives. How the mighty have fallen.” —Matt Walsh
