Jebidiah Stipe Arranges Ex-Girlfriends Rape Via Craigslist

Even in the friendly and quiet confines of Casper, Wyoming, shocking and deviant crimes take place. Jebidiah Stipe arranged his ex-girlfriends rape via Craigslist and is now sitting in the Natrona County jail along with the alleged assailant Ty McDowell. Stipe placed an ad under the name ‘Sarah’ saying that he was looking for a “real aggressive man” who would rape her inside of her home.

Ty McDowell, 26, answered the ad, and on December 11th he broke into the woman’s home, tied her up and raped her. The only problem was it wasn’t “Sarah” he was raping; at least not the “Sarah” who had placed the ad. He was actually assaulting the ex-girlfriend of Jebidiah Stipe who in some sick way was acting out a fantasy.

Today, Right Juris brings you yet another example of liberal lunacy and lack of common sense regarding children, schools, teachers, police, crime and punishment.

Well, now you know.

Alexa Gonzalez, arrested for doodling, is only twelve ( 12 ) years old. The Queens’, N.Y. student was a little bored waiting on her teacher to pass out homework and had the audacity to do what gazillions of other student’s have done since the very first school ever opened.
She doodled! Gasp! Oh the horror of it all! Are citizens now forever scarred by this wanton, willful and malicious, albeit temporary defacing of a desk ? What did she doodle! Are we all gonna die?

Patrick Timoney: 4th Grader Suspended For Playing With Lego Toys

Now for another dose of liberal lunacy and lack of common sense, this time brought to you by the fine folks of the Staten Island educational system. Patrick Timoney, no, not an individual on the terrorist watch list, but a 4th grader suspended for playing with Lego toys because the figure he happened to be playing with was holding a machine gun.

It seems young Patrick Timoney made the ill conceived decision (sarcasm) to carry some Lego toys to school to play with his friends at lunch. For me it was G.I. Joe’s, but that’s another story. As Patrick and his friends were playing with their Lego’s at PS 52 during lunch period, the principal, ever the defender of the people and keeper of the gate, took the 9 year old into her office because he had on his possession a 2 inch toy gun.
