A staple of feminist discourse is that all men are rapists, or at least proto-rapists who will evolve into the real thing unless the urge to rape is drummed out of them. The support for this assertion is dubious, consisting of inflated statistics that include everything from actual sexual assault to neglecting to call back.
Yet there is a stronger case for asserting that all women are rapists, specifically of the pedophile persuasion. Hardly a day goes by that I don't see a report about another female teacher fornicating with an underage student. It's not just my imagination, as the phenomenon has been noted. I'm sure many of you out there would never think of taking WND seriously, but it has compiled a massive list of these perverts that is authentic regardless of any ideology. What is also clear from the data is that female rapists are treated much more lightly by the criminal justice system. Indeed, a television movie starring Penelope Ann Miller portrayed convicted pervert Mary Kay Letourneau in a sympathetic light, so there's a double whammy: women are highly prone to commit rape yet less likely to be fully scorned or punished for it.
Imagine a "meninist" advocate visiting school campuses to preach that women are natural predators who must be taught not to rape, while demanding public funding for research into the epidemic. It sounds crazy, but the world we now inhabit is just as crazy if not more so because the genders are reversed, there is less evidence to support it, and there is far greater social and legal wrath accompanying it.

The Plight Of The Earnest
All I ever wanted to do was study hard, work hard, be a good man, maybe perform a stint as a public servant, and raise a family. It took me a long time to figure out that's just not possible for an earnest soul in a decaying civilization. The entire narrative confronting a man on how he should live today is a lie.
Study hard? Schools don't give a fig how well you master the material or demonstrate intellectual curiosity or achievement. All they want are students who dutifully listen to the faculty, who regurgitate the "right" answers, and most of all, who demonstrate an ability to become prodigious donors.
Work hard? The modern workplace is a circle jerk dominated by the C students who care only about money. Perish the notion of striving for excellence, taking pride in one's work, or behaving ethically. Such ideals stand in the way of churning business and functioning as a team player.
Be a good man? Are you kidding me? There are legions of good men who have been fired, divorced, imprisoned, or otherwise screwed six ways to Sunday because they lack the remorseless guile of their infinite adversaries. A good man today is a sucker.
Public service? Elected officials are expected to deliver as much plunder to their shameless and voracious constituents as possible. Judges are expected to enforce unjust and unconstitutional laws on a daily basis. Anyone suggesting a modest, lawful role for government has no chance of obtaining or holding office.
Raise a family? It can be whisked away on a moment's notice, for any reason or no reason. Even if that doesn't happen, good luck on trying to instill any enduring values or principles, which are considered passé or even oppressive.
The plight of the earnest man today is either to be a participating victim or a dissenting rebel. There is no middle ground anymore.

Strike On Syria Shows How Ordinary Trump Really Is
I had no illusions that Donald Trump was a champion of the Constitution or of international law, so I'm underwhelmed that he has launched an attack against Syria that blatantly violates both. Any other establishment politician would have done the same, and it appears that Trump is now drawing PRAISE from the establishment for acting this way. This is a reminder that the federal government remains a dangerous and lawless force no matter who happens to occupy it.
Let us hope that even if Trump does everything else wrong, he follows through and honors his promise to build a wall and prevent the ongoing invasion and destruction of the American nation, which is not simply a hodgepodge of immigrants from every nook and cranny of the world. America was founded and built by a specific, small group of people with a distinct language, culture, and religion. The fact that they were so successful at it made everyone else want to enjoy the golden eggs, yet now these interlopers are slaughtering the goose that lays them. What was once a humble desire to come to America has morphed into an obnoxious demand that America take all comers and that the founders' descendants roll over and die. Such demands amount to a declaration of war, and this is one worth fighting -- not the one in Syria.
