[A]… banker in the U.K. … armed himself with a slew of weapons, including two crossbows and a rifle, and allegedly burned down his ex-girlfriend’s parents house, reports the Mirror. A Canadian citizen, 42-year-old Al Amin Dhalla allegedly began his four month terror campaign after Alison Hewitt, a 35-year old trainee doctor living in Brighton, ended their relationship in December of 2010, notes the Daily Mail. The pair met through a dating agency and, after a few months, the pair moved in together in Hewitt’s home. But Hewitt’s parents became suspicious of the man after he expressed wishes to quickly wed their daughter and later discovered a hidden criminal record, according to the Mirror.

What a creeper!

Dhalla became agitated when the parents confronted him. Since the breakup, Dhalla not only wrote threatening letters to Hewitt’s co-workers, but hired a 24-hour private investigator to watch her, reports the Daily Mail. Dhalla also allegedly tracked down Hewitt’s parents on vacation while armed with weapons. The final move that got him arrested? Posing as a doctor at Hewitt’s hospital in order to find out her schedule.

Oh Canada…

“I’m not a historian on AIDS,” he said in an interview Friday.

Then don’t pretend to be.  Hold your views, represent your constituents, but don’t speak when you shouldn’t on medical topics- because when you do, you prove yourself to be a buffoon, a dilettante.  The fact that he continues

“But I’ve read and seen what other people have read and seen and those facts are out there.”

He proves he’s a dilettante.  Why is it that politicians think they’re qualified to be medical doctors or theologians or anything but what they are: pandering vote-hunters willing to toss red meat to their ravenous minions.  If you’re an expert in a field, have at.  If you aren’t, shut up.

On the origin of AIDS, Campfield told Signorile at one point, “It was one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men It was an airline pilot, I believe, if I recall correctly.”

What. An. Idiot.  Has he read anything reliable?  Any real medical research?  And, to me most importantly, what about all the innocent little children and adults who have AIDS because of blood transfusions or women whose husbands are profligate Ted Haggard-ians and have brought HIV home?   Does he demonize them as well?

Good grief.  I just hate stupidity.  Especially when it spews from people who should know better than to spew it.

Christine Jordan falsely accused a man she shared a one-night stand with of raping her because he forgotten her name the next time they met. The 25-year-old was convicted of perverting the course of justice after she lied to police, claiming Kevin Percival, 26, had attacked her.  She wrongly told officers he had followed her home and forced his way into her flat demanding sex.  In reality the pair had consenting sex after drinking beers and vodka with friends in her flat, Cambridge Crown Court heard.  Nicola Devas, prosecuting, told the court Jordan invented the claim last January because the man could not remember her name when she saw him again in a pub.

And so she demeaned every true victim of the despicable crime of rape. Shame on her.  If she wishes to be remembered she may wish to, oh I don’t know, get to know the guy.  Go on dates.  Get engaged.  Get married.  And then become as intimate as two human beings can do.  Promiscuity is the fastest path to anonymity.

Capitalism is ok as a system but it isn’t divine and infallible.  Some of our politically motivated brothers and sisters in the faith need to be told that.  And since a picture (with a true caption) is worth 1000 words, here you go-
