New conservative movie? - "This is the Dust of 3000 Innocent Human Beings!"
Ok does this sound like a bad idea or is it just me? A comment in the article hit the nail on the head, leave this type of stuff to the left. It's a battle that is just too entirely hard to wage against the left. Liberals get a free pass to call anything offensive...trust me I know....The left gets to do this because most of them stand on no moral or ethical ground, it's a self centered mentality void of any authority or higher power. "If I am offended than it must be offensive" "If you disagree with me then you are wrong....always". They throw around words like racist, hatemonger (My personal fav) divisive etc..when really they are just pointing out what they are. This movie may have the best intentions, but is it really necessary to just hand the left ammo over something so trivial? I learned a lesson with some silly videos I made (more on that below). That lesson was that sometimes the tactics used to fight the evils in the world need to be calculated, even if you are in the right and have not done anything wrong. Taking the high road counts for a lot. I think these film makers maybe doing a disservice to conservatives in the end. Conservatives aren't allowed to be funny, especially to sensitive liberals who have a burning desire to be victims.
Stanton: Piñata furor case of misdirected fury: Part Deux
I needed to take a moment before I let yet another lame opinion piece slip into history. Billie Stanton tried to take a stab at me because of my videos that I made with the Isabel Garcia pinata. She regurgitated the same insane line of thinking of Derechos Humanos that my videos were somehow laden with sexual innuendo. I asked her to come on my show to clarify her statements, and of course, she declined. She is a coward. Much like Anne Brown at the AZ Star, she likes to put out their little hit piece then go into hiding. I don't care what anyone thinks of my videos, I think they are funny. I didn't bother putting them back up because others have plastered them all over the net, so why waste my time. I still stand by why I took them down, because they were a distraction and continue to be a distraction. And just for good measure here is once again Isabel Garcia in her own words.
Garcia told me Friday that she thought the Arpaio piñata was great..."I think it's a fair expression of First Amendment rights. I thought it was funny. It had him with the pink underwear and, of course, his face. And it's a piñata. It was a fun thing for the kids that broke it," she said. Garcia said she "wouldn't sweat it all" if someone were to bash a piñata in her image. That would be minor compared to the abuse she has faced, including name-calling and plenty of death threats, she said.
But I suppose she and others draw the line at hugs and stupid jokes, isn't that right Billie? At the end of the opinion piece, Stanton gave us a story that she's quite fond of. Tell me if this sounds familiar...
All this misdirected fury and sorry excuse for law enforcement made me nostalgic for a sheriff I knew in the South. Dale Carson was the perennially re-elected sheriff, from 1958 till 1986, of Duval County, which is consolidated with the city of Jacksonville. Technically, it's in northeast Florida. Culturally, it's south Georgia.
But when a sheriff's office clerk started recruiting for the Ku Klux Klan, Carson fired him at once. Ten days later, erstwhile employee Robert C. McMullen marched on the Duval County Courthouse with his wife, KKK Imperial Wizard Bill Wilkinson and three others, all clad in KKK hoods and robes. Deputies had to escort them into the courthouse as an angry mob of about 300 residents screamed anti-Klan sentiments. The mob was white. McMullen later made a federal case out of his firing, claiming his First Amendment rights of speech and political expression had been violated. But the courts, right up to the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, found that a member of the KKK, which foments violent crime, isn't suited to work in law enforcement. It's heartening when law enforcement and white majorities show good sense and human decency in the South.
It's a damn shame that's not happening in the Southwest.
So here you have a nice little tale of how just because you express your 1st Amendment Free Speech doesn't make you immune to acting like an idiot. The person was an employee of the state and acted inappropriate for their job position. The joke is on Billie Stanton since she was trying to use this an example against Arpaio, but it really is a crystal clear example of the exact reasons why hundreds of tax payers believe Isabel Garcia should lose her job. So thanks Billie, your article was a waste of time, but your stupidity gave us a great story to use.
Speaking of Pinatas, did you know there was a movie!?
Piñata Survival Island
The movie is, quite literally, about a killer piñata. If only Derechos Humanos and Isabel Garcia were there they could have saved lives and beat the evil Pinata to a pulp. Might make a good sequel?
Andrew's random video for Thursday: I was watching the Olympics, and when the men's pommel horse competition started, I was overcome with flashbacks to this horrid, horrid movie...

Bio/History of Jon Justice:
Born and raised in Southern California I attended private Christian Schools from 5th grade through High School. I worked at age 18 as a record store manager. Right around when I turned 21 I left retail to go work as a public real estate auctioneer and property inspector in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego counties. One day, just after being chased off the lawn of a house going into foreclosure by a very large toothed dog who obviously had not been fed for awhile, I heard a commercial for the Academy of Radio Broadcasting. The rest is, as they say....history.
After graduating from the ARB I started as an intern and weekend air talent for Riverside San Bernardino station KCXX in late '95. I then left in '98 joining John Michael at Tucson AZ Alternative Rock KFMA. While at KFMA the Jon and John Show went #1 with our core audience. With this new found fame I was able to convince a promotions intern that I was the coolest guy on the planet and made her my wife. Yes I married an intern and even after she figured out I wasn't that cool Melinda still stayed with me.
In 2000 I returned to KCXX to team up with my still good friend Dick for the Dick and Justice Show. After reaching new highs and lows with bits like "Homeless Survivor" and "Dog in a Hot Car", Dick And Justice went #1 and posted the highest morning show ratings on KCXX. During this time my wife gave birth to our first son Logan Wedge.
In 2003 Dick and I accepted a job as afternoon show for Atlanta's WKLS 96Rock. While achieving some moderate success and hosting a night show on the now defunct FM Talk Real Radio 105.3 we fell victim to a station-wide decline in performance due an on air incident that got the successful morning show fired for airing inappropriate content. Dick and I exited WKLS late in 2004, after which Dick left the radio industry to join CNN.
In December 2005 I joined Grand Rapids MI Active Rock WKLQ as host of the Justice and Jim show. Once again reaching the masses with new lows like the now famous "Dog Drowning Hoax" in which I tried to bring to light the dangers of children drowning in local pools and lakes. Needless to say management mistakenly silenced me after the bit reached critical mass being covered not only on all local news outlets but major cable networks as well. A bit which was done to help educate and a make statement about how people need to pay more attention to child dangers, ended up making me look like an animal hating shock jock. (Of which I am niether, despite what some now think of me locally). After surviving the "Dog Hoax" in late 2005 (I was not fired for that bit, again despite what has been said in online circles) I found myself hosting the show solo as "Justice in the Morning". . That was until my agent made a deal with the company I worked for to put a syndicated show on several of its stations-including mine.....yes, my agent at the time essentially put me out of work. While I hated to lose my job, I was glad to leave WKLQ.
After serving a brief non-compete I was asked to join the #1 station in the market Newsradio WOOD as APD and fill in talk show host. I was given the job of fill in hosting on the stations two #1 live local shows The Grand Rapids Morning News and Rick and Scott (Both shows I have the utmost respect for). Also I was honored to be working on air the week of President Gerald R. Ford's passing, providing Grand Rapids the only live local call in show for 6 hours. During this time Melinda and I welcomed the birth of our second son Kyle Elliott on December 12 2006.
Just after the first of 2007 NEWSRADIO WOOD 1300 launched The Show with Justice Saturday afternoons.
It is now with great pleasure that I can be back in Tucson Arizona. On August 13th 2007 I started as host of my show "The Jon Justice Show" on 104.1 The Truth Tucson's News FM.
My passion has always been talk radio and I am pleased to finally be able to make a career in radio doing talk radio.
I was raised in a Reformed Presbyterian Christian household. I am happy to carry these beliefs with me still today and to be able pass them along to my wife and children Logan Wedge and Kyle Elliott.
I believe:
-I am not better than you the listener, just lucky enough to have a microphone and you don't
-Republicans get it right most of the time
-Democrats get it wrong most of the time
-If you are a liberal that's alright, everyone can change
-We need more God and less government
-We need more honesty and less political correctness
-The Ten Commandments and the Constitution are not mere "suggestions"
-There is reason why the "War on Terror" is called a WAR
-Freedom and democracy don't happen without a fight and they don't happen over night
-If you think you know how war will play out, you're very confused.
-If you're upset about soldiers that die during war, how mad are you about the homeless guy downtown that starved to death last night, the roll over crash that killed 3, or the winter storm that leveled a home and killed a family.
Death happens and our soldiers are fighting for your right to live free.
-We will win the war in Iraq and the war on Terror, but not without the FIGHT
-The media reports what they think you want to hear and unfortunately most of us are too stupid to care
-The most important things in my life are God, my wife and children, my family and my Job
-My father is my mentor and best friend next to my wife and sons
-The most enjoyment I get from TV comes in the form of NASCAR racing, Star Wars movies on DVD, and 24 the TV Series
-If I want to laugh then Spinal Tap, Monty Python and Judd Apatow movies will fill the need
-Depeche Mode is the most underrated band ever
-Dale Jr drives better than you...go #88, go JR!
-Pizza is greatest meal on the planet
-If I need a drink an Orange AMP energy drink will do. If I need something with a little more kick, Captain Morgans and Diet Pepsi will do the trick.
