Well is anyone really surprised?  I’m not.  Dispite the left’s claims it’s all for women’s rights and everyone else’s rights they just can’t stop letting their bigotry shine through.

Meet Rhiannon Marie Volpe, Barack Obama supporter and Feminist.  When word of these disgusting t-shirts first got out Ben Smith of politico was asked by people who was behind these shirts.  He got an answer from Rhiannon.  She is even selling the t-shirts online.  Warning lots of NSFW content!!

So if it’s acceptable for a female Obama supporter to distribute “SARAH PALIN IS A CUNT” t-shirts does that make it acceptable for a black McCain supporter to distribute “BARACK OBAMA IS A NIGGER” t-shirts?  Somehow I think that would receive far more coverage on CNN, MSNBC, and the big 3 and it would all be negotive.  Actually  should say it would receive coverage on CNN, MSNBC, and the big 3 as they are going to try and bury this story from their airwaves anyway they can.

I have to admit, when I first heard this on the news this morning I was ready to declare this girl the dumbest person alive and advocate throwing the book at her. I thought it must be another MIT prank. Then I saw this picture.

The thing on the left is clearly not a bomb to anyone that knows anything about electronics. The person on the right used really poor judgment. Neither is criminal. They are charging Star Simpson with possession of a hoax device. It’s a bread board a battery some LEDs and some jumpers(short pieces of wire). A bread board is used by technicians, students, whoever to assist in designing and building an electronic circuit. Electronic components can be “plugged” into the bread board and “unplugged” to build a circuit. It’s used to build test circuits. As an electronics guy myself that is a really bush league setup she has there. It was clearly put together in a hurry. It was a REALLY bad idea to wear it into Logan Airport with the level of paranoia today. But it’s not a bomb and wasn’t intended to be a hoax bomb.

How many terrorists outside of Hollywood put lights on their bombs?!?! When terrorists try to sneak bombs onto planes they generally try to conceal them, not wear them in the middle of their chests with lights in star shaped patterns on them!!! Think about this people. It’s a young girl that had a serious lapse in judgment.

I will be following this as she doesn’t deserve a criminal record for this. Once they figured out what they had she should have gotten a stern lecture about how stupid it was to walk in there with that and that’s it. She should be back on campus with her sweatshirt and “artwork” feeling quite embarrassed. I don’t knock the police reaction to the report they got. Until they had control of her and could inspect what she had all they knew is someone thinks she has a bomb.

Under a new school rule, students at Hobbton High School are not allowed to wear items with flags, from any country, including the United States.

Another zero tolerance, zero thought, zero accountability policy. Just a blanket ban that makes very little sense. I am sure that they did this to prevent kid from displaying “gang colors”. I don’t think the American Flag qualifies as “Gang colors” but apparently it is to these people.

Gayle Langston said her daughter, Jessica, was told to remove her Stars and Stripes t-shirt.

And on September 11th of all days. Our forefathers must be rolling in their graves.
