Ann Coulter: Media Find Las Vegas Shooter’s Motive: He’s White!

Theres a remarkable number of dangling facts about Stephen Paddocks mass murder in Las Vegas, which the media have shown little inclination to investigate. Its almost as if theyre worried that too much investigation will ruin it.

For example:

Who was the woman shouting, YOURE ALL GOING TO DIE! right before the concert? Is any reporter interested in finding out? Probably a random crazy lady, but thats not typical pre-concert behavior.

Why is it taking so long to find out if anyone else went into Paddocks hotel room since he checked in last Thursday? Im perfectly prepared to accept that he was the only one who entered that room, but can we see the surveillance video?

The sum-total of the information we know about Marilou Danley, the woman whos been living with Paddock for years is the following:She was out of the country at the time of the attack. Shes not involved.

Paddock had apparently assembled an enormous arsenal of weapons. Did she know about it? Did he tell her why? Had his behavior changed recently? Why wasnt he with her on her trip? Had they broken up? And why did Paddock recently wire $100,000 to the Philippines?

Within hours of the first indictments in the Duke lacrosse case later, all thrown out the media was bristling with information about the players parents, the homes they grew up in, the ritziness of their neighborhoods, and the tuition at their Catholic high schools. Doesnt any reporter want to ask Danleyanything?

Do we know yet why Paddock broke two windows? What were his recent winnings or losses at gambling?

I dont know if any of this would change the basic narrative. But the media dont know, either, and they seem strangely reluctant to ask. As Sherlock Holmes said: First, you exclude the impossible, and whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. Our media isnt doing the reporting that would allow us to excludeanything.And then they wonder why conspiracy theories develop.

The medias idea of hard-hitting investigative reporting is to taunt gun-owners and white men. Making snarky political remarks is Job No. 1 of reporters. Apparently, its also the new job description for late-night comics. As long as were looking for jobs that Americans just wont do, maybe we could find some immigrants to tell jokes and report news.

Were getting a lot of smirky, celebratory headlines, like these:

AMERICAS WHITE MAN PROBLEM

HOW AMERICA HAS SILENTLY ACCEPTED THE RAGE OF WHITE MEN

THE WHITE PRIVILEGE OF THE LONE WOLF SHOOTER

While its great that liberals have finally found a mass murder that they dont think can be defeated with a Je Suis Charlie hashtag, theyre either lying or they dont know what theyre talking about. Blacks and Hispanics are extremely well-represented as perpetrators of mass shootings, Muslims are over-represented, and surprisingly, even the usually law-abiding Asians more than hold their own.

Typical Reporter:Yeah, we decided not to go with the mass shootings at the Tennessee church, the Washington Navy Yard, San Bernardino, the Pulse nightclub, Fort Hood, the LIRR, the Carson City IHOP, the Trolley Square Shopping Mall, the Windy City Core Supply warehouse, Virginia Tech, the Binghamton Civic Center, the Hartford Distributors, the hunting tract in Wisconsin, the Appalachian School of Law and on and on and on.

And those are just a few of the famous ones! Its hard to notice whats not there, so its especially annoying that the journalists method of illustrating mass murderers is to assemble pictures of all the mass shooters, but then only show the white guys.

There was one characteristic of white men in abundant evidence at the Las Vegas massacre. Theyre awfully chivalrous, these white male country music fans. Twenty-two thousand people came under sustained, high-powered gunfire and few people, if any, were stomped to death something you cant say for a Black Friday sale at a Long Island mall.

At the Las Vegas concert, men died protecting women, using their bodies as shields and standing up in the middle of gunfire to direct the women to safety. The New York Post reports that one woman said she was running away and a couple of guys said, Hey, come stand behind us, and boom, they went down. Heather Melton has described how she felt her husband, Sonny, being shot in the back, fatally, as he shielded her from the rain of bullets.

Without many facts to go on, the only sweeping conclusion we can make so far is that theres a reason feminism didnt emerge from the country music community.

Ann Coulter responds to Trumps decision on Obamas Dream Act …

Sep 5, 2017 7:38 pm

In a series of tweets from her official social media account Tuesday, immigration hawk Ann Coulter registered her disappointment with the decision made by President Trump on the DREAM act, an amnesty program for children brought into the country illegally.

Thats great. Sarah Huckabee Sanders says Trump wants COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM! she tweeted about the White House Press briefing after the decision was announced. Exactly what he used to denounce.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued the official policy of the Trump administration Tuesday. While he indicated that Trump would rescind the memo issued by former President Obama implementation the DACA program, he also said it would be delayed for six months.

Trump indicated that Congress would be given a chance to pass a bill enabling DACA, which stands for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, to continue.

Coulter appeared to respond angrily to the clarification by White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders that the administration preferred a comprehensive bill to address immigration rather than a standalone implementation of DACA.

Weird how Huckabee Sanders obsessively attacks congress, she noted. Trumps not going to get out of betraying voters on the wall by blaming congress.

She tweeted with a healthy dose of acerbic sarcasm.

Trumps decision was also slammed by the left, but for opposite reasons. Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said the decision was cowardly and praised the DREAMers for their patriotism. Former President Obama also excoriated the decision in a long Facebook post issued Tuesday.

Steve Bannon, Ann Coulter, Milo Yiannopoulos invited to Berkeley’s ‘free speech week’ – Washington Examiner

Conservative provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, author Ann Coulter, and recently ousted White House chief strategist Steve Bannon were invited to speak during UC Berkeley's "free speech week."

The three were invited by a student organization called the Berkeley Patriot to speak during the Sept. 24-27 event on campus. Yiannopoulos and Coulter both had scheduled speeches earlier this year that were canceled due to violent protests.

UC spokesman Dan Mogulof told the East Bay Times that Berkeley Patriot organizers "have been good collaborators and attentive to policy."

While Yiannopoulos and Coulter have confirmed their attendance, Bannon has not, according to the Sacramento Bee.

In a statement that was sent to students Wednesday, University Chancellor Carol Christ reiterated the campuses commitment to free speech as a core of the academic institution.

"The university has the responsibility to provide safety and security for its community and guests, and we will invest the necessary resources to achieve that goal," Christ said.

"If you choose to protest, do so peacefully. That is your right, and we will defend it with vigor. We will not tolerate violence, and we will hold anyone accountable who engages in it."

Yiannopoulous shared the chancellors letter on his Facebook page Wednesday while adding: "What a difference six months make! Let's hope Berkeley sticks to this commitment to free expression."

Mogulof told the East Bay Times that the school gets "a lot of requests" to deny the clubs the right to invite the controversial speakers.

"It is absolutely clear that it is first and foremost, a matter of law that groups have an undeniable right to bring speakers of their choice, given their legal autonomy. At UC, registered student organizations are separate legal entities from the campus. It's not the university bringing these groups to campus," Mogulof said.

Ann Coulter, Milo Yiannopoulos, Stephen Bannon Are Invited to Speak at UC-Berkeley – The Chronicle of Higher Education (blog)

A set of conservative firebrands, including Ann Coulter, Milo Yiannopoulos and the former Breitbart News executive and White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon have been invited to speak this September at the University of California at Berkeley.

The university is known as the birthplace of the free-speech movement on college campuses, and in recent months has seen violence erupt over speakers slated to appear there.

Dan Mogulof, a spokesman for the university, confirmed to The Chronicleon Wednesday evening that a student group, California Patriot, had invited the speakers for a series of events set to take place on the campus from September 24 to 27. Messages to the event organizer identified by Mr. Mogulof werent immediately returned on Wednesday afternoon. Carol Christ, the universitys new chancellor, also said in a statement on Wednesdaythat Mr. Yiannopoulos has been invited to speak on campus.

The university has the responsibility to provide safety and security for its community and guests, and we will invest the necessary resources to achieve that goal, she said in her statement. If you choose to protest, do so peacefully. That is your right, and we will defend it with vigor. We will not tolerate violence, and we will hold anyone accountable who engages in it.

Asked if the university was worried given the outbreak of violence that has emerged around recent rallies and demonstrations, Mr. Mogulof said yes. He added that it was important that the university host the event, though he said it would be deeply upsetting for some people.

Two of the speakers, Mr. Yiannopoulos and Ms. Coulter, had previously been scheduled to speak at the campus this year. But the event featuring Mr. Yiannopoulos,in February, was canceled after protests of the event turned violent. And Ms. Coultersplanned speechwas called off over safety concerns.

In the wake of the deadly violence in Charlottesville, Va. this month, at least four universities have refused to host the white nationalist Richard B. Spencer, citing security risks.

Ann Coulter: Peace Through Border Control – Breitbart News

But then the Emperor God gave a magnificent speech in Arizona Tuesday night. Curiously, when he talks to voters as opposed to his Cabinet and White House staff theres very little about sending more U.S. troops to die in the human meat-grinder of Afghanistan.

Trump got thunderous applause from his 30,000-person focus group for the wall, stepped-up deportations and Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio recently convicted of contempt for racially profiling Hispanics. But you could hear a pin drop when he mentioned Afghanistan, Nikki Haley and Gen. John Kelly. (At least he had the good sense not to bring up Goldman Sachs Gary Cohn again.)

There were long faces all over cable news after Trumps speech, which surely triggers the reward center in his brain, like giving a mouse cheese.

What was so refreshingly different about the Trump campaign was that the candidate didnt use any of the idiotic, consultant-written bromides offered by every other GOP presidential candidate for at least the past 30 years. Instead, he looked around the country, saw what the problems were and said hed fix them.

Here are the highlights from every speech by any Non-Trump candidate for the past several decades:

I listened to the American people.

People are frustrated.

This election is about the future!

It may not seem like it at first, but another one of those head-scratching cliches is: Peace through strength. During the campaign, this was a staple of knuckleheads like Jeb!, but Im sorry to report that our hero used it on the Arizona crowd, referring to his decision to send more troops to die in Afghanistan for no earthly purpose. The Swamp is sticky.

When Reagan said, peace through strength, it meant something. But 30 years after Reagan won the Cold War, anyone who uses this expression conveys only that he has no understanding of the current war.

During the Cold War, America was facing an aggressively imperialistic, nuclear-armed Soviet Union. By contrast, the main threat to Americans safety today comes not from a country, but from millions of individual savages spread throughout the globe.

Americans arent being slaughtered by invading Soviet troops, Red Dawn-style, but by Islamic terrorists on tourist visas flying commercial airplanes into our skyscrapers, and by first- and second-generation Muslim immigrants setting off bombs and shooting people at the Boston Marathon, American military bases, community centers, and gay nightclubs.

Americans are raped, addicted, and murdered not by the Red Army, but by millions of illegal aliens waltzing across our wide-open border.

Our freedoms are being taken away not by a foreign power, but by our own government in order to protect us from terrorists, international crime rings, and Mexican drug cartels operating in our own country.

Defeating a non-country adversary may seem an impossible task, but the savages are perfectly containable. Todays enemy has no capacity to harm a hair on a single Americans head as long as we dont let them come here.

We dont need a military victory. We need an immigration moratorium.

The Non-Trump Republicans promised us only more immigration and more wars. PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH!

How does a military buildup help Kate Steinle? How about the 3,000 Americans killed on 9/11? Did Obamas escalation of the war in Afghanistan protect soldiers at Fort Hood or nightclubbers in Orlando? Did it do anything for Grant Ronnebeck, who was fatally shot by an illegal alien robbing a convenience store in Mesa, Arizona, in 2015?

More than 1,600 American troops died in Afghanistan under Obama, and not one American is safer.

All we need to do to win the current war is: Keep our nuclear weapons in working order and stop allowing enemy forces into our country. If we must have troops constantly deployed somewhere, the only place theyd actually be useful is 10 feet into Mexico. (Let a court try to stop that!)

During the campaign, Little Marco dismissed as unrealistic Trumps proposed temporary suspension of Muslim immigration to our country including the more than 2 million Muslims weve taken in just since 9/11. Instead, Rubio proposed we do something achievable, like remake the entire Middle East with wars in Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Afghanistan.

Trump, and only Trump, promised to put our country first and protect our interests when it came to immigration and foreign wars. He didnt care that political correctness dictated putting Americas interests dead last.

But since becoming president, instead of draining the swamp, the swamp seems to have drained Trump. His agenda has been drowned out by the agenda of Washingtons Uni-Party.

Thats why all we ever hear about is tax cuts and war (unless Trump is speaking to one of his 30,000-person focus groups).

Rather than actually being like Reagan and winning the war were in, Trump has decided to continue Obamas unconstitutional executive amnesty opposition to which gave the GOP stunning victories in 2014 and 2016. This week, he grabbed the hot poker of Afghanistan, allowing ecstatic Democrats to scratch that disaster off Obamas Greatest Hits list. Now, its Trumps war.

I dont know why Trump would surround himself with people who oppose his agenda, but on Tuesday night he heard again from the people who see him as our countrys last hope. He should listen to them.
