Evangelical Youth

So there was an Evangelical Christian rock concert in town. The protestors could have done a better job of making the alternatives to Evangelical Christianity more attractive. Instead, the Christians were greeted by general foaming at the mouth. Eeewwww. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence would get a better response via one-on-one proselytizing !

Bleeding Heart Attack

Here's a guy who gives liberals a bad name -- this guy is blaming property owners on the abundance of street scum that hangs out around St. Anthony's and Glide Memorial, when in fact, this high concentration of drug addicts and ex-convicts is a direct result of services provided by those nonprofits.

Furthermore, he excoriates the property owners for evicting nonprofits, when in fact, the nonprofits were probably evicted for legitimate development reasons, or a desire to avoid having an entire, several-block homeless encampment in the heart of downtown. This is a classic, "blame the developers" knee-jerk liberal attack, shifting the blame for a more complicated problem. I'm not ready for Rush Limbaugh, but I'm afraid I see this guy as way off in left field. Maybe the Shorenstein's are "evil developers", but this article has only caused me to doubt this notion. More likely, the second-generation kids just don't have the same development sense as the first generation founder of the empire.

Where will you find carnage?

A young woman in Ohio gets 6 years in prison for not being able to face the notion of getting an abortion, hiding her pregnancy, passing out while delivering the malnourished child ON HER OWN, and trying to hide her mistake from the world.

South Dakota -- finally, a refuge for god-fearing Christians. Do you really have to create hell on earth for victims of incest and rape, in order to make heaven look like a good option ?

In comparison to the fire-belching bible-thumpers in charge of these places, my crack-head neighbors here in the Tenderloin don't seem so bad after all.
