After helping with the effort to raise money for the Indiana pizzeria owners who had shut down their shop — people who respect freedom of conscience responded by donating close to $850K in the course of a couple of days — someone on Twitter alerted me to another gofundme page, this one for a 70-year-old florist who was being sued and who had been prosecuted by the state’s AG for

Happy Easter [Darleen Click]
The Left is quick to culturally appropriate Jesus and re-invent Him into their own image. [I]t is a characteristic of our age that if people want any gods at all, they want them to be gods who do not demand much, comfortable gods, smooth gods who not only don’t rock the boat but don’t even row it, gods who pat us on the head, make us giggle, then tell us

Is there any activity The State cannot force upon people?

#GayWeddingCakes at Muslim Bakeries? [Darleen Click]
Now, anyone want to take bets on if any of the Left fascists who have gone after Memories Pizza, forcing it to shut down due to threats, will make even one peep about these particular businesses? Bravo to Steven Crowder!

Friday Fiction: 100 word challenge [Darleen Click]
The Inspiration: A story: Dusk. We’ve come from the fields, washing up at the handpump. The women have been cooking on the outdoor stove. Grandma lights the coal oil lamps. We tuck into the food sitting out under the green-tinged summer night sky. Grandpa refuses to look up. “I ‘member the first night of that damned goblin’ light. Even have a picture of it hovering over the bay …” Grandpa’s

No, The Left is in full, bullying glee mode with nasty rhetoric aimed at Republicans and Israel. That “Death to America” “Death to Israel” is not worthy of their consideration leads the reasonable adult to conclude
