Collins Report

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

These are New York City stories but they could be from any liberal run American city.

Better to die of starvation than live hypertensive

New York’s Mayor is not officially a liberal Democrat, but “ a rose by any other name.. applies. His dream is constructing the ultimate Nanny State where all are equally destitute, receive equal if substandard healthcare and totally rely on the state for all our material benefits.
Fortunately most New Yorkers don’t need this progressive “generosity”, because those who do are treated to a special level of paternalistic contempt anyone with the wherewithal to escape would turn and run from.
New York has some of the finest eateries in the world. The generosity of these establishments is legendary. Nevertheless each day much of the excess food they donate to New York City food pantries for the homeless is accepted then tossed in a dumpster before the delivery truck pulls away! Why? Because the rich food from these great restaurants contains trans fats that could possibly “kill” those who eat it by causing hypertension!
A well dressed corpse cheers their liberal hearts
Each month NYC PD officers, oversee the shredding of tractor-trailers full of counterfeit clothing confiscated from illegal street venders.
These loads include tons of well crafted but “knock-off” outer and under garments. There is never any thought to finding a way to “legally” redistribute the donated food, or clothes to the desperately poor and displaced of New York, Haiti or anywhere else.
Bowing to political correctness always means more to liberals then feeding and clothing the destitute. Doesn’t common decency suggest we ship material to our brothers and sisters in Haiti? Surely they won’t be offended by “fake” BVDs or the food from a Park Avenue restaurant “tainted” by trans fat rich hollandaise source.

Haiti needs our help
The devastation in Haiti is weeks from being fully understood. The suffering for those who have somehow survived is just beginning. As the greatest most generous people in the world we common average Americans have to step up and help these poor people in their hour of desperate need. Please do whatever you can to help in every way possible. If you can’t send money, send God your prayers on their behalf.
What did you do yesterday to defend American freedoms? What will you do today and tomorrow to help us remain free?
