DMC Pharmacy & Pharmacists for Life International


People wonder why the rest of the world is always laughing in America's face.

Here's one reason..... a new DMC Pharmacy opening in Chantilly, VA is marketing itself as a pro-life pharmacy.

DMC is the latest in a worrying new trend across the country. Pharmacies who will actually turn away customers with prescriptions for birth control pills, the Plan B emergency contraceptive or who simply want condoms. Apparently, according to DMC, their workers have a "right of conscience" which allows them to refuse the supply of care or products that they find "personally objectionable"

DMC are members of Pharmacists for Life International, a bunch of insidious little playing-at-god hitlers who are attempting to force their own brand of religious fascism on the public and, by doing so, are putting women's health at risk.

I don't know about you, but I think there's the possibility for some comeback here? If people in Chantilly, VA (and/or wherever else PFLI is promoting its screwy ideology) find this as shit-grippingly offensive - as any NORMAL educated, intellectual person undoubtedly will - maybe the narrow-minded weasels who work at the DMC Pharmacy should - in return - also be penalized when they themselves try to shop at other local retailers, eat at a restaurant or fill their cars up with gas?

If I owned or ran a business there, I'd set up a coalition of like minded folks called the F.R.O.N initiative. I would refuse to serve anyone even vaguely associated with the DMC Pharmacy, first outing them publicly to to the rest of my customers as being the "local religious nutjobs". Invoking the initiative, I would then tell them they needed to Fuck Right Off, Now.

Just a suggestion.

Kieffe & Sons


More religious hypocrisy to grip my shit...

Southern Californian FORD dealership Kieffe & Sons have been running radio commercials to (one has to presume) "promote" their business.

These commercials have taken the promotional angle of... erm... ATTACKING non-Christians and condemning people who believe prayer should not be taught in school.

Here's a transcript of the ad:-

"Did you know that there are people in this country who want prayer out of schools, "Under God" out of the Pledge, and "In God We Trust" to be taken off our money?

But did you know that 86% of Americans say they believe in God? Now, since we all know that 86 out of every 100 of us are Christians who believe in God, we at Kieffe & Sons Ford wonder why we don't just tell the other 14% to sit down and shut up. I guess maybe I just offended 14% of the people who are listening to this message. Well, if that is the case, then I say that's tough, this is America folks, it's called free speech. And none of us at Kieffe & Sons Ford are afraid to speak up. Kieffe & Sons Ford on Sierra Highway in Mojave and Rosamond: if we don't see you today, by the grace of God, we'll be here tomorrow
"

What a pompous self-righteous piece of work. I actually admire his free speech rant but unfortunately not when he twins it with the comment that us non-believers should sit down and "shut up"... that kinda defeats part of the argument doesn't it?

Are "86% of us" really all "Christians who believe in God"? I wonder which corner of his cavernous rectal passage he plucked that one out of?

I find it incredible that any business owner would chose to promote himself this way, and wonder what Ford think about this dickhead dealer, who represents THEM, effectively discriminating against potential buyers of their vehicles. (In fact, why not contact Ford's public relations division and let them know what you think?)

I sincerely hope (but not pray, obviously) that Ford pull his dealership right out from underneath his smug hypocritical rear-end. Nothing would please me more as a post-script to this story.

Furthermore, that as a result of his short-sighted idealism, he is forced into major league bankruptcy and pushed out onto the streets to survive.

So let's hear it for karma and let's discover if 86% of us would give a flying fuck about his predicament.

The Church & Double Standards


Yep, it's religious hypocrisy gripping my shit once again.

Many churches throughout the land want to show this coming weekend's Superbowl to lure and attract new members, adding they can do so in a "non-churchlike manner".

Quite aside from the fact that sport is a proper religion all by itself, do the churches not feel that this approach is somewhat unseemly?

Regardless however, the NFL have hit back at the churches, saying that they are not permitted to show the game on TV screens larger than 55" without a proper license. Making this distinction "limits the size of the audience", a matter of copyright/broadcast law (enforceable by the feds).

The churches - especially the mega-churches with their auditorium-sized jumbotron screens - all have their hassocks in a knot because of this ruling, claiming showing the game is "just a little bit of fun", but adding the wonderfully shiny hypocrisy of "Gee, doesn't the NFL have enough money already?"

Organised Religion


Religion, generally, grips my shit. But organised religion and cultism packs the crap in REAL tight.

For the definitive CRAZY, nutjob, wacky, fucked-up, nonsensical, useless jism-stain of a "religion" let's not overlook Scientology.

Sooooooo utterly ludicrous it almost makes Christianity look normal.

For further proof that you don't always need hardcore drugs to fuck you up, check out the (now infamous) 'indoctrination video' for Ron L Hubbard's own disciples of dim. Starring Hollywood fart-throb Tom Cruise.

This video may not be around too long on Defamer. Scientology have already persuaded YouTube to remove it, and have apparently threatened legal action against others broadcasting it online. It appears they must be frightened of their own words and actions?

Tom "the cult" Cruise once looked like a total jerk in his underpants dancing to Bob Seger. Compared to this disastrous rambling bollocks however, "Risky Business" should have won him a handful of Academy Awards.

Can't wait for the next movie Tom

No, Wait

Hmmmm......seems like I can?!!

American TV


Look, we're NOT all 12 years old OK?

Censorship on TV really grips my shit, specifically when so-called 'bad words' like "shit", "piss" and (oooooh, here a really bad one) "goddamn" are bleeped out.

Even out of grown-up shows being broadcast into the wee small hours of the night/morning.

Why IS it that just because a few parents can't police their own children properly we all have to treated like imbeciles? Even protected from apparent horrors like someone flipping the bird at the camera or someone's ass cleavage?!

Sure, let's not show a couple fucking in a movie, but make sure we do show shooting, graphic violence and killings on "Cop"-like reality shows. Suuuuuuuure, that makes good sense.

I think the commandments included "thou shalt not kill" NOT "thou shalt not fuck" so why are pandering to the possibility someone might get offended when their religion (and you know this is about religion) actually condemns the thing that isn't banned?!

At least - like most civilised countries, including the whole of Europe - have a watershed, say after 9pm - when kids (if parents have ANY fucking common sense) should NOT be watching, and where a much more relaxed attitude is adopted.

I'm sure people won't be expecting say The Disney Channel to show an unexpurgated version of "Beverly Hills Cop", but at least this would give the grown-up channels a chance to be, oh, I don't know... maybe fucking "grown-up"??
