Dating App Reportedly Bans Female Hunter – Here’s Why

/1 Comment/in , /by

Nichole, an avid hunter identified only by her first name, told KGO-TV that she opened up her app and suddenly discovered that she couldn’t use its functionality.

Nichole told the outlet that she posted the photo and several hours later, she was banned from using the platform. Nichole said that when she reached out to the company to inquire about the loss of use, the company told her that she “violated the terms of service and the community guidelines.”

“I cropped [the photo] so there were no weapons, no blood — my family, we are not trophy hunters; we hunt for food,” she explained. “We respect the animal, we respect the outdoors, we eat every part of the deer that we can, and only take shots when we feel it’s going to be a good shot and it’s going to take the animal as quickly and painlessly as possible.”

A spokesperson for the company told the station that the company has a “team dedicated to investigating each report.” The spokesperson also noted that the female hunter’s account “had been reported multiple times,” but noted that “the matter has been resolved and they can now use Tinder.” (Read more from “Dating App Reportedly Bans Female Hunter – Here’s Why” HERE)

Gay Couple Demands New Law Forcing Christian Service to Prepare Their Taxes

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Bailey Brazzel has filed her taxes with Nancy Fivecoate, owner of Carter Tax Service, for the past four years. But to her dismay, Brazzel says was turned away this year after she told Fivecoate she would be filing jointly with her new wife, whom she married last summer, according to WRTV-TV.

Still, they remain upset over what happened, explaining to WRTV they believe they are victims of discrimination. They told the news station it is now their goal to ensure new laws are passed preventing discrimination against same-sex marriage couples in the future. . .

In a statement to WRTV, Fivecoate explained her Christian beliefs prevented her from seemingly endorsing the same-sex marriage by preparing the taxes jointly — but that does not mean she in, any way, disrespected the Brazzels. . .

“I am a Christian and I believe marriage is between one man and one woman. I was very respectful to them. I told them where I thought she might be able to get her taxes prepared,” Fivecoate explained. “I am not trying to destroy them by dragging them through social media. Why are they trying to destroy my business? I have made no comment on social media. Where is their respect for me and my beliefs?”

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. A 41-year-old Massachusetts woman is facing charges after reportedly assaulting a young man who was wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat.

The incident in question took place at a Falmouth, Massachusetts, Mexican restaurant last week.

Bryton Turner, 23, was wearing the hat inside the eatery, reportedly minding his own business, when Rosiane Santos stalked over and began harassing the young man over his hat. . .

Santos — a Brazilian immigrant — later said that she was actually the victim in the incident, and told police that Turner’s hat upset her.

“I had a little bit to drink maybe that’s the reason that I couldn’t walk away but being discriminated for so many times in my life, I just had to stand up for myself,” she explained. “He’s not a victim. I am the victim. I have been bullied, OK?” (Read more from “Woman Assaults Young Man Wearing MAGA Hat, Then Claims She’s the Victim” HERE)

Pope Francis Calls for ‘All out Battle’ Against Sex Abuse but Completely Disappoints Victims

/0 Comments/in , /by

Pope Francis spoke Sunday at the conclusion of a four-day Vatican summit addressing the sexual abuse of minors in light of recent scandals in the Church. The Church has been grappling with the Pennsylvania grand jury report which uncovered the abuse of thousands of minors by 300 priests in addition to revelations of abuse perpetrated by prominent Church leaders, such as former D.C. Cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

“I make a heartfelt appeal for an all-out battle against the abuse of minors both sexually and in other areas, on the part of all authorities and individuals,” the pope said, “for we are dealing with abominable crimes that must be erased from the face of the earth: this is demanded by all the many victims hidden in families and in the various settings of our societies.” . . .

Summit moderator and former Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi later said that the Vatican will soon release a child protection policy and guidelines for preventing sexual abuse of minors for Vatican City State and a handbook for bishops to better comprehend their duties in these matters.

The address by Pope Francis met with criticism from some survivors and the media, given his unwillingness to address allegations of his own cover-up in the case of former Cardinal Theodore McCarrick.

The summit follows the laicization, or dismissal from the priesthood, of McCarrick after a Church investigation deemed sexual assault allegations against him were credible. The allegations included that he abused a minor during the sacrament of confession and sexually abused seminarians.

Virginia Lt. Gov. Fairfax Compares Himself to Lynching Victims Due to Sexual Assault Allegations Against Him

/1 Comment/in , /by

Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax (D) made a speech Sunday in which he compared himself to a victim of lynching due to the sexual assault allegations he was facing, according to the Associated Press.

“I’ve heard much about anti-lynching on the floor of this very Senate, where people were not given any due process whatsoever, and we rue that,” Fairfax said at the close of the legislative session for the state Senate.

“And we talk about hundreds, at least 100 terror lynchings that have happened in the Commonwealth of Virginia under those very same auspices,” he continued. “And yet we stand here in a rush to judgment with nothing but accusations and no facts and we decide that we are willing to do the same thing.” . . .

“That is the worst, most disgusting type of rhetoric he could have invoked,” Republican House Majority Leader Del. Todd Gilbert said of Fairfax’s remarks Sunday. “It’s entirely appropriate for him to talk about due process and we would intend to offer him every ounce of it, and he’s welcome to take advantage of that anytime he would like.”

The state’s two other top Democrats, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and Attorney General Mark Herring, have also been resisting calls to resign after they both admitted to wearing blackface in the 1980s. (Read more from “Virginia Lt. Gov.

Judge Gives Ruling on Male-Only Military Draft

/0 Comments/in , /by

A federal court judge in Texas has struck a blow for “feminism,” ruling Friday that a men-only draft is unconstitutional and represents an instance of “gender-based discrimination” under the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments.

The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that the judge “sided with a San Diego men’s advocacy group that challenged the government’s practice of having only men sign up for the draft,” though the judge “stopped short of ordering the Selective Service System to register women for military service.”

Two men in Texas, who were then of age to register for the Selective Service System, filed suit against the government over the draft back in 2013, claiming that it was unfair to discriminate against women in the draft, particularly given that women now serve in front-line combat roles in the military and are competing with men for some of the military’s most difficult roles. . .

According to the Supreme Court in the Obergfell case legalizing gay marriage across the country, the judge noted, the government has an obligation to make decisions on issues of gender equality quickly, and must determine immediately whether such discrimination serves “an important governmental interest today.”

The judge believes the time has come to rectify the problem, justifying his decision to upend 1980s guarantees exempting women from the Selective Service with a 2015 Defense Department order lifting all gender-based restrictions on military service and combat roles, noting that the DOJ’s intent with the order was clearly to eliminate all gender-based restrictions in the military across the board, USA Today reports.

Mueller’s Final Manafort Filings Are Scant on Russia Details, Never Mention ‘Trump’ or ‘Collusion’

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Mueller and his team made their final required filing in Manafort’s case late Friday, submitting a “government sentencing memorandum” to the United States District Court in Washington, D.C., justifying their request for a harsh, 17-year prison sentence against Manafort.

In it, the government argues that Manafort “chose repeatedly and knowingly to violate the law— whether the laws proscribed garden-variety crimes such as tax fraud, money laundering, obstruction of justice, and bank fraud, or more esoteric laws that he nevertheless was intimately familiar with, such as the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA),” both before and after he was under scrutiny by the Special Counsel.

Manafort’s portfolio of crimes include incidents going back more than a decade to 2005, to when Manafort was a lobbying the federal government on issues involving Russia and Ukraine. They run all the way up to last year, when Manafort was discovered to have engaged in witness tampering, even after he was indicted on tax fraud charges.

But what the government sentencing document — and Manafort’s apparent list of transgressions — doesn’t include is evidence of actual collusion with Russia during the course of the Trump for President campaign, the actual focus of Mueller’s investigation. Instead, the filing simply says that Manafort committed some of his crimes while under the “spotlight” of the campaign.

“His criminal actions were bold, some of which were committed while under a spotlight due to his work as the campaign chairman and, later, while he was on bail from this Court,” Mueller’s filing says. “Given the breadth of Manafort’s criminal activity, the government has not located a comparable case with the unique array of crimes and aggravating factor.” (Read more from “Mueller’s Final Manafort Filings Are Scant on Russia Details, Never Mention ‘Trump’ or ‘Collusion'” HERE)

Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) channeled her inner Danielle Bregoli on Friday — the “cash me outside” girl from Dr. Phil — during a talk at a “Girls Who Code” event in New York City.

During the talk, the 29-year-old politician slammed critics who raise serious concerns about her “Green New Deal,” saying that people are just being critical over “little minute thing[s].”

“Like I just introduced the Green New Deal two weeks ago, and it’s creating all of this conversation. Why?” Ocasio-Cortez said. “Because no one else has even tried. Because no one else has even tried.”

“So people are like, ‘Oh it’s unrealistic. Oh it’s vague. Oh it doesn’t address this little minute thing,'” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “And I’m like, ‘You try. You do it. Cuz you’re not. Cuz you’re not. So, until you do it, I’m the boss.’ How bout that?”

Mother Accused of Making up 5-Year-Old’s Illness to Collect Disability Checks

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Breitbart. A Georgia mother was arrested Thursday for fabricating her five-year-old son’s illness to obtain disability checks, authorities said.

Investigators arrested Teresa Lynne Roth, 34, on Thursday after she spent nearly two years forcing her son to take 28 medications and medical treatments for nonexistent medical conditions, the Associated Press reported. . .

The case began in 2016, when doctors at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta were treating the child, who was three years old at the time, for several medical conditions which investigators say were fabricated.

Health care workers then alerted the Department of Family and Children’s Services (DFCS) and local authorities. DFCS removed the child from Roth’s home in October 2018, and authorities investigated Roth.

Authorities arrested Roth, who faces charges of first-degree child cruelty. (Read more from “Mother Accused of Making up 5-Year-Old’s Illness to Collect Disability Checks” HERE)

Mom Accused of Faking 5-Year-Old Son’s Illness for Disability Checks

By Boston 25 News. Investigators say Teresa Lynne Roth, 34, of Hall County, made her 5-year-old son take 28 unnecessary medications and undergo unnecessary medical treatments for nearly two years.

Roth’s son was on numerous medications, in a wheelchair and on a feeding tube as his parents drew disability checks on his behalf, according to police. Investigators say the boy was not sick and Roth’s actions jeopardized his well-being.

The case started back in 2016 when the boy was taken to Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. Doctors were treating the then 3-year-old boy for several illnesses, that investigators now say were all made up. When health care officials became suspicious of the mother, they alerted the Department of Family and Children’s Services. DFCS removed the boy from the home in October 2018 and called the Sheriff’s Office. (Read more from “Mom Accused of Faking 5-Year-Old Son’s Illness for Disability Checks” HERE)
