The way I see it if Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab had stayed in Nigeria or if he’d been stopped by the people in charge of the so-called U.S. “No Fly” list, there may not have been an attempt, a very pitiful attempt to blow up a plane en route to Detroit, Michigan on Christmas Day.

If that non-event had not taken place–after all no one was seriously injured, nonetheless the American flying public is afraid because of what did not happen; then we would not have heard Senator Lautenberg of New Jersey complain about the weak punishment for Haisong Jiang, 28, of Piscataway, NJ who “breached” a lame security area at Newark Airport. Haisong Jiang, a graduate student at Rutgers University, only wanted to kiss his beloved good-bye as she was on her way to California after a holiday visit with him. We wish him success in defending himself against the charge. We hope his community will provide the best legal mind available to insure his bright future. (more…)

Blanche Reilly Africa Dark, Clark Dark’s mother,  and the matriarch to us all at YouThinkWhat, speaks about the tragedy in the Caribbean island nation of Haiti.

I’m having trouble understanding how until last week’s powerful earthquake struck in Haiti, most of us in the Western hemisphere thought it was no big deal for the people there to live as they have all these years in heartrending poverty and squalor. In fact many Americans did not know such a place exists. I am confident when I say many can not point to it on a world map.
