| Tourists are Cheering the Republican Revolt | | 2008-08-06 21:29:17 | | Cross posted on Grizzly Groundswell
Okay, this will me my last post on the issue of the Republicans and their “revolt” in the house. I can’t make any promises though because I find this topic very interesting.

I ask this because it seems there’s an organized group of Englishmen out there that really, really hate traffic cameras.

| The Next Forum Revolt Brewing Over Fraud | | 2007-09-27 00:32:00 | | It's looking like the next big forum uproar will be over Prosper's actions in the forums to stamp down the revelation of personally identifiable information (PII). Where does this information mostly come up? Why, when lenders go hunting for fraud. This has coalesed around a posting by Prosper Shira reinforcing Prosper's current PII position:

| The moral majority is in revolt | | 2007-09-23 23:40:41 | | Britain’s law-abiding majority is a myth. A recent study found that 61% of Britons admitted to such dodgy practices as pilfering office stationery, padding insurance claims and paying builders in cash. But if the respectable middle classes really are this lawless I suspect it has more to do with resentment than greed.

| Mini-revolt at Macalester college | | 2007-06-12 20:06:26 | | This article by Katherine Kersten perfectly illustrates what a struggle it can be to encourage even a small amount of intellectual diversity on a college campus. If students are steeped in course material like this day in and day out, how can they help but pick up the leftist mantra?

| Mass deletion sparks LiveJournal revolt | | 2007-05-31 06:34:45 | |
Thousands of LiveJournal customers are rebelling against the company’s recent decision to censor hundreds of sex-themed discussion groups, a broad swath that has led to the removal of literary critiques and fan-written fiction about Harry Potter.
LiveJournal, which is owned by San Francisco-based Six Apart, confirmed Wednesday that it deleted around 500 journals this week in hopes of better “protecting children.” It said the deletion was prompted by activist groups, including one called Warriors for Innocence that claims to track sites promoting pedophilia, the sexual abuse of minors, and other illegal activities. READ THE REST HERE
The main player in the “Mass deletion” is a very good friend of mine. Sue at Sue’s View, she is also Jarhead John’s sister.
She has been tireless in pointing out pedophiles on the internet to Law Enforcement. She has helped put MANY sites out of business, and I for one am grateful to know her. WELL DONE SUE!!!!! Keep up the good work.
