Bats seem to be attracted to wind turbines. On this infrared video taken at night, one can see bats “investigating” the moving blades of a wind turbine. Strikes are also recorded.

Bitter cold after Christmas, high fuel prices, lots of unemployed and homeless, a low CO2 footprint- the stuff greenies fantasize about. This is what universities are teaching kids to strive for.

A box cutter is not much of a match for a .45 caliber bullet.

During snowy weeks, we are told that the snow is due to global warming. During non-snowy weeks we are told that skiing is doomed because of global warming is keeping it from snowing.

Parents of children at the Sandy Hook school have visited a gun store asking to buy weapons for protection in the wake of the shooting.

One gun shop owner in Newtown reported that a couple had been in his shop looking for something to help safeguard their family.

Sales of weapons have soared in the wake of Friday’s shooting, according to anecdotal evidence from stores.

The same happened in July after the Colorado movie theatre massacre: the number of people getting approval to buy a guns increased by 43% in a week.

US School Shooting ‘Sparks Rise In Gun Sales’

We put armed security guards in banks, because they protect our valuables. Michael Bloomberg has armed security guards to protect himself. Barack Obama has armed Secret Service agents to protect himself.

The presence of guns under the control of responsible, trained people reduces the possibility of violent crime to almost zero. No one pulls out a weapon in a gun shop – you would have to be a complete moron to do that.

Irrational leftists believe that the way to protect children is to ban the one thing which can keep them safe. Are children less valuable than a bank account?  Children deserve better than the mentally defective people running our government.

The world is full of nutcases. Lefties can either deal with it or stick their heads up their asses in their imaginary Bambi world.

Fairbanks is averaging an incomprehensible -28C this month, with -40C in the forecast for the foreseeable future.

Only a complete imbecile would believe that the US, Barack Obama or John Kerry control the climate. This is 14th century superstition.

Even if you believe the most pessimistic climate models, China and India are building 1,000 coal fired power plants. The deluded arrogance of Barack Obama seems to know no bounds.
