A PROPOSAL for cops to wear “gender-neutral” Glengarry hats has been ruled out after a backlash by bobbies.
It was suggested the traditional headgear could end distinctions between male and female officers.

Cruel Canada! The immigrants are lonely!
Calls for action, more data after Statistics Canada reports increased loneliness for immigrants
A new report by Statistics Canada about increased instances of self-reported loneliness among immigrants is sparking calls for additional data and action to address the issue.
In a recently released article by the federal agency, researchers examined data gathered during the 2018 general social survey as well as information through other sources to assess the loneliness among immigrants and those who were born in Canada.
“Recent and long-term immigrants reported higher levels of loneliness than the Canadian-born. Moreover, loneliness did not appear to be alleviated by the length of stay in Canada,” researchers noted in the document.
I blame white supremacy and the patriarchy.
Ontario reports 258 new Covid cases … and it’s masks forever
Ontario reports more than 200 new COVID-19 cases for third day in a row
For the third consecutive day, Ontario is reporting more than 200 new cases of COVID-19.
Provincial health officials are reporting 258 new infections today, up from 226 on Friday and 218 on Thursday.
New CDC data a ‘game-changer,’ warns head of Ontario science table
“This data is the nail in the coffin for any suggestion that we can go back to normal and drop masks in the foreseeable future,” Juni said. “There is no way during the next few months that we can actually keep this pandemic under control without public health measures.
“We should not be naive — and especially not as naive as Alberta — in believing that this is over.”
Paddles for Neo
Our friend Neo from Halls of Macadamia had a close call.
He is doing OK after a stent implant to relieve a blockage and will be home soon.
The True Believer: Harbinger of Hate and Destruction
I don’t need to be convinced of the obvious, that the Marxists are staging a counter-revolution in our Republic. I say “counter-revolution” because the Marxist goal is to overthrow the successful revolution staged by our founders almost two and a half centuries ago. And the enemy is not just “at the gate”; they are, in fact, on the cusp of winning the ultimate prize: total domination of the United States of America.
She Cheered BLM Rage. Biden Picked Her as a Federal Prosecutor.
“I’ll call the police on you and make an allegation, and we’ll see how that works with you.”
Murders are up 54% in Boston, fatal shootings shot up 60%, and commercial burglaries rose 62%. Now Biden wants to make the Soros DA responsible for this mess a U.S. Attorney.
On her website, Suffolk County DA Rachael Rollins has a list of crimes that she will not prosecute, ranging from shoplifting, to stealing anything under $250, breaking and entering a vacant property, driving with a revoked license, malicious destruction of property, threats, and drug possession with intent to distribute. Effectively these crimes have been legalized.
America needs a monarchy
Presidential progeny like Hunter Biden will always succeed
Keeping it in the family is a political tradition nearly as old as America itself. John Adams, our second President, spawned an entire line of public servants including a son, John Quincy Adams, who was elected POTUS in 1824. The first Kennedy entered office in 1895, and the family has been supplying the country with legislators, ambassadors and other federal elected officials pretty much continuously ever since. The Bushes have been in politics for four generations, and the Cheneys seem primed to follow in their footsteps (that is, if Liz can survive her attempted ousting by the Republican party’s Trump Loyalist faction).
First Big Court Blow Landed on Cancel Culture’s ‘Preferred Pronouns’
In what may be ultimately be seen as the first big blow against Cancel Culture madness, California’s Third District Court of Appeals ruled unanimously the state’s 2017 mandate that long-term care employees use a resident’s preferred pronoun is unconstitutional.
Britain is ‘a bi*ch asking for a beating’ with its South China Sea warship challenge, Beijing warns
China has warned Britain is ‘a bi*ch… asking for a beating’ if British warships challenge Beijing’s claim to the South China Sea.
The HMS Queen Elizabeth and her carrier group arrived in the disputed waters on Thursday and are set to sail through Beijing’s backyard alongside eight other vessels in a show of strength to Chinese President Xi Jingping.
But Chinese state media has warned any move seen as a challenge to islands which Beijing lays claim to would mean Britain ‘is being a bi*ch’ and ‘asking for a beating’.
Rowan Williams Declares Greta Thunberg a Modern-Day Prophet
Not that his nutty view of Greta makes him an outlier in the Anglican ranks.
If you look up Rowan Williams on Wikipedia, you’ll find out that he’s actually Rowan Douglas Williams, Baron Williams of Oystermouth, PC (member of the British Privy Council), FBA (Fellow of the British Academy), FRSL (Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature), FLSW (Fellow of the Learned Society of Wales). He was Archbishop of Canterbury, i.e., head of the Anglican Communion, including the Episcopal Church in the United States, from 2002-2012. Before that, he was pretty much a standard issue lefty clergyman of the ‘68 generation. He supported unilateral nuclear disarmament in 1980s and after witnessing the 9/11 attacks in New York personally, wrote of Al-Qaeda that it had “serious moral goals” and that calling it evil was not useful.
CUNY Professor Claims Muslims Will ‘Erase This Filth Called Israel’ in Anti-Semitic Sermon
An imam who serves as an adjunct professor at the City University of New York (CUNY) said in a sermon that Muslims will “erase this filth called Israel” after accusing Jews of creating a “colonial” settlement.
Mohammad Abbasi, who teaches at the CUNY School of Professional Studies, delivered the remarks in a June 25 sermon at the Islamic Center of Union City, N.J.

The City of Anarchy: Calling Chicago “Chiraq” is now an insult to Iraq
Every Monday in the city of anarchy, on what Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot once called “Accountability Mondays” without irony, the media tallies the number of the weekend murdered dead and the wounded.
And the Democrat politicians point fingers at each other.
More than 70 people were shot this past weekend, with 12 dead. Over the July 4 weekend, more than 100 people were shot, among them more than a dozen children, and 19 were killed. And so on, weekend after weekend, weekday after weekday.

Climate Change Hardliners Jennifer Lopez, Ben Affleck Vacation on $130 Million Carbon Spewing Super Yacht in Italy
Pop star Jennifer Lopez and actor Ben Affleck — members of the celebrity elite who’ve spent years browbeating Americans about the peril the planet faces lest we curtail our carbon footprint — are in the midst of a glamorous vacation around the Mediterranean, living on a $130 million carbon-spewing super yacht.
Douglas Todd: Vancouver still suffering fallout from ‘students’ buying mansions
One of the more shocking examples was the University of B.C. “student” who bought a $31-million house a few years ago in Vancouver.
There were also the nine different international students who snagged $57 million in mortgage money from Canadian banks to buy posh dwellings across Metro Vancouver.
This is not to mention the countless other proxies who somehow obtained gigantic mortgages from Canadian banks without having to provide evidence they earned an actual income.
Proportionately More Brits Who Went To Fight ISIS Have Been Charged With Terror Offences Than “Brits” Who Fought For ISIS
Why have the Brits who joined ISIS suffered no consequences?
Just three per cent of those who sided with the Islamist death cult have been convicted of terror offences.
Here’s a shocking statistic: a higher proportion of the Brits who went to Syria to fight against ISIS have been charged with terror offences compared with the Brits who went to fight for ISIS. Yes, if you risked your life to fight alongside the Kurds against the barbaric Islamic State, you are statistically more likely to be found guilty of terrorism than if you went to Syria to join the Islamic State and partake in its deranged war of hate and terror. Surely nothing captures the moral disarray of 21st-century Britain better than this.
Seriously, bullets are cheaper than trials.
