I mean, they\u2019re really riding a roller coaster of emotions, the seesaw of emotions &#8212; up, down, up, down, where are we going, when\u2019s it gonna stop, is it good, is it bad.  They just can\u2019t quite figure it out.  Greetings, my friends.  Great to have you here, as we head on down the tracks.  Rush Limbaugh from the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.  Three hours broadcast excellence hosted by me.  Telephone number, if you want to join us, is 800-282-2882.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115282\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/DHS-Banner.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Look at what is happening in Los Angeles.  Either way this goes, I mean, whatever is the case here, this is &#8212; folks, if it\u2019s a hoax, look what they\u2019ve pulled off.  If it\u2019s real, look what that is.  We\u2019ve got the second largest school district in the country shut down on a basis of a credible threat to a member of the school board or some such thing.  They get threats there all the time, the guy said.  &#8220;Yeah, we get threats every day.&#8221;  Something about this one he said made them take action.  They have shut down the entire school system. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>There were people already at school.  There were people already on their way to school.  They had to close and shut down the buses and send them back to the parking lot.  They had to clear people out of the schools that had already gotten in there. They had to get the word out that school was closed.  This is going to cause all kinds of problems during the day today with parents who normally send their kids to school to get rid of them.  Now they\u2019re gonna have to deal with them.  I mean, it\u2019s a major thing.  But the point is, if this is a hoax, look what\u2019s happened?  A hoax has shut down &#8212; what\u2019s to prevent this from happening every day?  No, no.  Seriously.  I mean, they say the threat\u2019s credible, something about backpacks.  They cannot inspect every backpack. They can\u2019t inspect every school.  They can\u2019t inspect every boiler.  They can\u2019t inspect every nook and cranny of every school or bus or what have you. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115283\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/Headlines-12-15.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Everybody is obviously on edge.  San Bernardino is not far from Los Angeles, obviously San Bernardino to the east.  So that\u2019s clearly on people\u2019s minds.  Officials closed all LA Unified School District campuses this morning after receiving a credible threat of violence involving backpacks and packages left at campuses.  The authorities said they\u2019re gonna search &#8212; there are more than 900 schools they have to search. More than 700,000 students are going to miss their liberal indoctrination today.  They\u2019re going to miss their exposure to propaganda.  You might say that\u2019s an upper.  But we don\u2019t want to go there right now.  I\u2019m just giving you the facts. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>The LA Unified School District superintendent, Ramon Cortines, said, &#8220;I think it\u00c2\u2019s important to take this precaution based on what has happened recently and what has happened in the past.&#8221;  This is just two weeks after the San Bernardino massacre.  Fourteen people were killed, many others wounded.  &#8220;Fearing for the safety of schools and students, Cortines said he couldn\u00c2\u2019t take a chance, so he asked police to search all campuses, adult school and early-education centers,&#8221; before reopening tomorrow.  &#8220;Officials said the threat came in electronic form and was made to numerous but unspecified campuses. As a result, they made the decision to close all campuses for the day. The Los Angeles Police Department and FBI were assisting with the investigation, Los Angeles School Police Chief Steve Zipperman said.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So again they say the threat is still being analyzed. &#8220;&#8216;We have chosen to close our schools today until we can be sure our campuses are safe.\u2019 Students who already arrived at school will be supervised until parents can pick them up, officials said. LAUSD ordered parents and guardians to bring identification with them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Get this.  The school district said in a statement: &#8220;Parents and guardians, please bring proper ID when picking up your child at school.  They will be required. <\/p>\n<p>Now, I understand &#8212; folks, I really do.  There\u2019s no way &#8212; and I know I grew up in a much, much smaller town, but no parents needed IDs to pick up their kids at school when I was there.  You gotta show your papers.  Look, I understand it.  I mean, I\u2019m not I\u2019m not criticizing it.  I\u2019m noting how things have changed.  Parents need ID.  Otherwise anybody could show up and pick up the kid.  I understand it.  It\u2019s a different world.  It\u2019s a different country.  It\u2019s a different age. <\/p>\n<p>Ladies and gentlemen, there\u2019s a lot of attention &#8212; I mentioned something yesterday&#8230; (interruption)  What?  (interruption)  Oh, yeah, yeah, I\u2019ll get to the debate tonight and all that.  (interruption)  What?  (interruption)  Yes.  I\u2019m gonna get to the media coverage of what happened.  Yeah.  I\u2019m gonna get to all that.  But as you know, I never want to make this program about me.  (interruption)  Well, I know, but I didn\u2019t know it.  You know, I got a note from my brother at midnight last night.  He said: &#8220;Have you had any feedback on what you said about Trump and Cruz?&#8221;  And I said, &#8220;No, not a word.&#8221;  And I said, &#8220;But I never do get any feedback.&#8221;  And I never go searching for it, so I haven\u2019t seen any. <\/p>\n<p>Remember, I don\u2019t have cable news on at night.  I mean, last night I had the football game on, and I watched a couple of their TV &#8212;  I never have cable news on at night.  It\u2019s not an active thing.  It just evolved.  I just don\u2019t turn it on anymore.  I don\u2019t know why.  Well, yes, I do know why.  I stopped learning things on it.  It\u2019s like I used to watch the Sunday shows religiously and now it\u2019s predictable.  I know what each guest is gonna say, and I know who\u2019s gonna frustrate me, both sides, so I just don\u2019t subject myself to it. <\/p>\n<p>The point is, I didn\u2019t know any of that was happening last night.  I didn\u2019t know any of that was happening until I got the sound bite roster from Cookie 10 minutes before the program began; then I see I am the first 11 sound bites.  But, anyway, it\u2019s what I was gonna say, folks &#8212; I touched on it yesterday, and there\u2019s much more that has been learned about this &#8212; and that is the administration\u2019s policy is refusing to allow social media to be used in determining potential terrorists or other criminal activity.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s specifically outlawed by the Obama administration, and we touched on it yesterday a little bit, and it blew up overnight.  It\u2019s become a huge issue, understandably so, because it\u2019s raising all kinds of questions about the Obama administration and just what the hell they are doing and why are they making it so damn hard to identify people before they would commit acts of terrorism.  The example being used is the wife of the San Bernardino Two. She was telegraphing everything about herself on social media. <\/p>\n<p>What is it I\u2019ve always said about social media?  Well, I\u2019ve said many things about it. But one of the most prominent things I\u2019ve said about it is that it is remarkable to me how everybody on social media, in the quest for fame, is willing to divulge everything about themselves they can.  The lack of regard for privacy &#8212; until somebody seems interested in it, then all of a sudden they start demanding privacy.  But everybody in social media, Twitter, Facebook, you name it.<\/p>\n<p>People there are just putting everything about themselves on these websites, these profiles, as they can. It\u2019s just everybody wants to be famous.  Everybody wants a taste of fame because of the way fame is portrayed in pop culture media.  Well, apparently Syed Farook\u2019s wife was no different.  She was telegraphing quite a lot.  She was explaining quite a lot.  She was showing her anger. She was expressing her desires.  If they had consulted the social media that she was posting about herself, they would have had a huge idea. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=4667\"><img id=\"eZObject_115279\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ISISBefore-and-After-C.jpg\"\/><\/a>She passed the visa examination, which is the fiance visa, \u2019cause that\u2019s all done online.  That\u2019s not even done with a personal interview anymore! And there it all was.  In her case, it was right there on her social media that she used, and even if somebody at the Regime had gone to it and looked at it, it was inadmissible, per se. It was illegal to use it.  So the headlines on this story today have kind of blown up.  Let me give you a sample of them here.  Daily Caller: &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2015\/11\/19\/obama-officials-trained-to-focus-on-behavior-not-religion-or-ideology\/\">Obama Officials Trained to Focus on Behavior, Not Religion or Ideology<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Washington Examiner:  &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/white-house-looks-to-curb-anti-muslim-sentiment\/article\/2578316\">White House Looks to Curb Anti-Muslim Sentiment<\/a> &#8212; The White House on Monday began staff level meetings and telephone calls with religious leaders to discuss how they could help combat growing anti-Muslim sentiment in the US.&#8221; This is suicidal.  I have a poll, a Pew poll.  I\u2019m holding it in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers.  Now, I don\u2019t know what your opinion of this is gonna be, but to me it\u2019s kind of shocking.  Eight percent of US Muslims &#8212; 8% of US Muslims &#8212; think terrorism is okay. <\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think there\u2019s 8% of any other group in this country that would say that.  There might be one other.  But 8%, to me, is a too large number.  It\u2019s 8% and growing.  And here we are, after San Bernardino, after Fort Hood, after all these things, and the Regime is running around worrying about backlash against Muslims. When there isn\u2019t any! And they had a meeting yesterday &#8212; this is unbelievable &#8212; to discuss how they could help combat growing anti-Muslim sentiment in the US.  Meanwhile, the Washington Post is out with a poll today.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s got his biggest lead ever.  They can\u2019t believe it.  They are attributing it to Trump\u2019s comments on the moratorium that he suggested on Muslims being allowed to enter the country.  They\u2019re stunned.  They\u2019re shocked.  They can\u2019t believe that Trump went up.  They can\u2019t understand it. Even after all the help I\u2019ve tried to give them in understanding how all this is working, they still don\u2019t get it.  Trump\u2019s numbers are up.  It\u2019s even been misreported in one place that he\u2019s got a 38-point lead. <\/p>\n<p>He doesn\u2019t have a 38-point lead.  He\u2019s up at 41%.  The closest to him is like 15%. Well, it may be closest to 38, but it\u2019s not. But it\u2019s massive.  And they can\u2019t help but understand and report that it is because of Trump\u2019s comments on limiting the arrival of Muslim refugees.  It\u2019s only a common-sense reaction that the nation has engaged in many times prior to today, prior to this era. &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/US\/secret-us-policy-blocks-agents-social-media-visa\/story?id=35749325\">Secret US Policy Blocks Agents From Looking at Social Media of Visa Applicants, Former Official Says<\/a>.&#8221; This is Brian Ross at ABC. <\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s trying to find a Tea Party culprit. He can\u2019t, but he still looks. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=4667\"><img id=\"eZObject_115280\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ISISO-and-P-Haney-B.jpg\"\/><\/a>But that secret US policy blocks agents from looking at social media.  So Republicans have proposed a bill that would require vetting immigrants\u2019 online statements.  So this has blown up now, and people are noticing the lengths to which the administration has gone to make sure investigators cannot look at social media and then make judgments on what they see there in terms of learning, uncovering potential terror threats.  Now, to me it\u2019s quasi-suicidal.  You have a whole body of evidence that has just been deemed off-limits because of some notion of privacy, civil liberties, or whatever.<\/p>\n<p>These people are posting it themselves.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not that other people are finding out who they are and posting it.  These people are vomiting all this stuff about themselves, and this has been the primary identifying characteristic of social media. &#8220;Notice me!  Notice me!&#8221;  These people are begging to be noticed, and we\u2019re saying, &#8220;You can\u2019t use that, though.&#8221;  And the reasons make no common sense whatsoever.  Homeland Security chief Jeh Johnson? I mean, he\u2019s leading the charge on this, making sure that none of that social media can be used. <\/p>\n<p>Had it been available for use, we\u2019d have had a much better idea about the San Bernardino Two.  Anyway, in process of prepping this, I have come across the actual <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.training.fema.gov\/emiweb\/docs\/shared\/cve%20do%20and%20dont.pdf\">PDF government manual on the proper use of social media<\/a>.  It\u2019s a two-page PDF file.  I am holding it here my formerly nicotine-stained fingers, and I\u2019ve sent the link up to Koko at the website. So if you want to go to RushLimbaugh.com, give him a couple minutes and he\u2019s post that link. <\/p>\n<p>But what this is, is it\u2019s the instruction sheet that the Department of Homeland Security uses to train agents in what they are allowed to do and not do.  It\u2019s only two pages. Sections C and F are the money sections, and Section F could have been written by the Muslim Brotherhood.  It could have been written by CAIR.  You know, all this stuff about a secret policy not to look at social media is BS.  It\u2019s not &#8220;secret.&#8221;  It\u2019s right out there for everybody to see!<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a straightforward application of Obama\u2019s long-standing countering-violent-extremism strategy.  What this is, is not secret at all.  It is the department of instructions on making sure there isn\u2019t backlash against Muslims and making sure that we don\u2019t unfairly target them and making sure that we don\u2019t profile.  It instructs agents not to consider speech, ideology, or Islam.  All agents are allowed to do is look at behavior.  And if the behavior of a potential suspect does not indicate trouble, the suspect must be ignored.  We can\u2019t look at what they say on social media speech. <\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t look at their ideology and profile what that might mean.<\/p>\n<p>Nor can we look at their religion.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Let me give this a stab.  Here\u2019s Section C of &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.training.fema.gov\/emiweb\/docs\/shared\/cve%20do%20and%20dont.pdf\">Countering Violent Extremism Training<\/a>.&#8221;  This is what our agents are told to see, do, not do, notice, not notice.  There are three columns in every section: &#8220;Goal. Do. Don\u2019t.&#8221; Section C: &#8220;Training should be sensitive to constitutional values,&#8221; okay?  And the agents are advised to do the following:  &#8220;Review the training program to ensure that it uses examples to demonstrate that terrorists span ethnicity, race, gender, and religion.  2.  Look for training that focuses on behaviors over appearances or habits. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.training.fema.gov\/emiweb\/docs\/shared\/cve%20do%20and%20dont.pdf\"><img id=\"eZObject_115281\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ISISHOmeland.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#8220;Number 3.  Look for training that supports the protection of civil rights and civil liberties as part of national security.&#8221;  Okay, those are the do\u2019s.  Sounds really effective, right?  Here are the don\u2019ts: &#8220;Don\u2019t use training that equates radical thought, religious expression, freedom to protest, or other constitutionally protected activity, with criminal activity.&#8221; Don\u2019t use training that equates&#8230;? In other words: Do not believe that &#8220;radical thought, religious expression, or freedom to protest&#8221; can be criminal or can even lead to &#8220;criminal activity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t even think that way. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One can have radical thoughts\/ideas, including disliking the US government, without being violent; for example, trainers who equate the desire for Sharia law with criminal activity violate basic tenets of the First Amendment.&#8221; So you had better not have any negative ideas about Sharia, and you had better not think you spot anybody believing in Sharia. And if you do spot somebody that you think believes in Sharia, it doesn\u2019t mean anything. So ignore it unless you see them behaving in such a way that they might commit an act of terrorism, like running around with a bomb. <\/p>\n<p>But if you don\u2019t see \u2019em with a bomb, and all you know is they\u2019re Sharia and they\u2019re militant Islam, you can\u2019t do anything about it.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019m telling you what this administration is doing, the school district in LA shutting down today, the way the administration is handcuffing investigators and agents in identifying terrorists prior to their acts of terror, this is serious stuff.  We\u2019re handcuffing ourselves.  We\u2019re tying one arm behind our back, however you want to characterize it.  I\u2019ve got the-two-page behavioral manual for agents here that I just read a portion of.  Let me read one more of the &#8220;don\u2019t&#8221; section.  &#8220;Section C:  Training should be sensitive to constitutional issues.&#8221;  I read their three dos here that are irrelevant.  The don\u2019ts are where you find out what this administration is made of.  Here is &#8220;don\u2019t&#8221; number 2.  &#8220;Do not use programs that generalize about appearance.&#8221;  What that means, &#8220;don\u2019t use programs&#8221; means do not make a judgment on whether somebody is a potential risk because of how they appear. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=4712\"><img id=\"eZObject_115287\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/IslamGOPHeadinSandIslam-OH-1-1.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#8220;Do not generalize about their national origin.  Do not generalize about other similar characteristics in an attempt to identify indicators or &#8216;types of people likely to carry out acts of violent extremism.'&#8221;  In other words, deny what you know, do not notice what you see, do not act on what you know and what you see, because if you do, you are violating our Constitution, and that\u2019s not who we are, and you are violating our universal value. <\/p>\n<p>So, in other words, if you see somebody that would raise a red flag by their social media postings, by their race or ethnicity, you are to ignore it until you actually have some sign that they might be a bad person by virtue of their behavior.  Well, you know, I\u2019m not a professional criminal investigator, but how in the world are you going to spot somebody\u2019s criminal behavior before they commit it?  How are you gonna spot it so that you can stop \u2019em from doing it if you can\u2019t notice all the likely indications? <\/p>\n<p>This goes further than not profiling people, folks.  This is actually&#8230; What this is, this is a protection scheme for the group of people that do engage in militant Islamic acts of terror.  Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Training. The administration is building a cloak that covers these people and shields them from investigators.  They\u2019re not allowed to act on any of the indicators. In fact, they are to ignore them.  &#8220;Don\u2019t&#8221; number 3: &#8220;Don\u2019t use training that is overbroad, equating an entire religion, nation, region, or culture with evil or violence. For example, it is incorrect and damaging to assert that all Muslims have terrorist ties.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Well, now, you can see where that comes from.  Now, however, agents are clearly free to identify &#8220;gun nuts&#8221; by a gun rack in back of a pickup. If they drive a pickup, if they chew tobacco, any number of things.  It is this one religion and this one ideology that is shielded and protected, and agents attempting to engage in countering violent extremism are being trained to ignore every aspect of it.  The only thing they can go on is behavior. <\/p>\n<p>If a terrorist suspect posts on social media that he or she hates some institution and is planning or would love for it to be blown up? You can\u2019t use it, can\u2019t go there. Violation of privacy.  Can\u2019t do it; can\u2019t use it.  If you do, it will not be allowed.  Any of the other indicators, too.  This is just a surface analysis of this.  But this is deadly serious stuff.  And it raises all kinds of questions about just, you know, who the people are in charge with defending and protecting the people of this country and who are they actually defending and protecting.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Here is the number on the percentage of US Muslims who say suicide bombing, violence against civilian targets is often or sometimes justified: 8%.  That\u2019s from the Pew survey.  The report here is from Cybercast News Service. &#8220;Survey data released by the Pew Research Center in 2013,&#8221; admittedly two years ago, &#8220;shows that 8% of US Muslims believe that the use of suicide bombing and other forms of violence against civilian targets is either often or sometimes justified in defense of Islam.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115288\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaISIS-kids-montage.jpg\"\/><BR\/>That\u2019s 8% of US Muslims.  Now, bear in mind that Pew is a very, very left-leaning organization. They favor open borders. They favor high levels of Muslim and Syrian refugee immigration. So, I mean, if they\u2019re saying 8%, it could well be higher.  Now, let\u2019s put that 8% reality.  We\u2019re in the process here of rapidly immigrating, about what, a million Syrian refugees? Obama wants 10,000 a month, 100,000 a year. Combined with the Islamic population already here, and the ones that Obama wants to bring in, let\u2019s just&#8230;<\/line><\/p>\n<p>For every one million Muslims in the United States, if the Pew survey is right, that means 80,000 people in the country &#8212; 80,000 Muslims, if the 8% number is right, 80,000 per million &#8212; think terrorism or suicide bombing and other forms of violence against civilian targets is either often or sometimes justified in defense of Islam.  Now, you might be saying, &#8220;Well, in defense of Islam, Rush. That\u2019s&#8230;&#8221; Well, no.  Defense of Islam could be any target that is not Islamic. Any target where there are infidels could be considered in defense of Islam. <\/p>\n<p>If it were 1%, we\u2019d be talking about 8,000 people who think terrorism\u2019s often justified.  Eight percent of US adult Muslims think terrorism is often or sometimes justified.  But then we have people say Trump\u2019s a lunatic for this moratorium. Trump\u2019s a lunatic and anybody who supports Trump is a racist or a bigot.  If you run the numbers here, and then you add it to everything else that\u2019s happening &#8212; and we don\u2019t have to make up events. We don\u2019t have to say, &#8220;Theoretically what could happen if this and this and that happens&#8230;&#8221; It\u2019s already happened. <\/p>\n<p>We already had San Bernardino. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve had Fort Hood. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve had any number of domestic terror incidents since 9\/11. <\/p>\n<p>Now we\u2019ve got the LA school district being shut down today.  By the way, quick question on that.  Does anybody else think it\u2019s strange that a potential legitimate Islamic threat would call a school board member?  These people do not do it that way.  They do the deed and then either claim credit or try to get away, get caught; then claim credit. Or a history of them is researched and we find out that they\u2019ve been planning it for a long time.  But this&#8230; There\u2019s something. I don\u2019t know.  But it doesn\u2019t matter.  Really, it doesn\u2019t matter whether this is legit or a hoax.  How do you not shut down the LA school district every day now?  I mean, if it\u2019s your job to take these threats credibly, responsibly, assign credibility to them. It\u2019s not a job I think I would want.  Not a job I think I would want, correctly stated.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  I just got some audio sound bites where Obama is comparing the Syrian refugees that he is permitting to enter the country to the Pilgrims.  I\u2019ve got those four soundbites.  You know, I could easily use those sound bites and I could very selfishly use them to promote my children\u2019s book series.  I could very easily do that.  And I might yet still do it.  But to draw that &#8212; (interruption) Well, yeah, the first book, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rushrevere.com\/index.php\">Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims<\/a>.  That book is still, it\u2019s the first of four, that book &#8212; well, all four of them are in the top 50 of some certain sales lists in two years.  I may get to the sound bite, but stop and think of this. <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.rushrevere.com\/index.php\"><img id=\"eZObject_115294\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/04-RushRevere4Books-AmFlag.jpg\"\/><\/a>How in the world do you compare people that you are inviting, asking, practically rounding up and bringing them, how do you compare that to people fleeing religious tyranny, getting on a boat and going somewhere they had no idea where it was; they had no idea if they\u2019re gonna get there; they had no idea what awaited them.  They had nothing whatsoever.  It was the biggest risk any of them would ever take in their lives. How in the world do you draw &#8212; what kind of a person do you have to be, what kind of scholar on American history, what must your opinion of American history be if you can easily, happily, energetically compare Syrian refugees to the Pilgrims who led to the founding of this country? <\/p>\n<p>In what world do you live?  What universe do you occupy?  What perverted concepts do you believe or have been taught that could lead you to that kind of moral equivalence?  And the left does this constantly.  You know, every year at Christmastime they warn us, &#8220;Well, you know that Mary and Joseph, they were homeless.&#8221;  Oh, really?  So you\u2019re telling me that the next savior could be pushing around a shopping cart, sleeping in a cardboard box in Hoboken?  I mean, the things these people do &#8212; oh, speaking of that, I had it yesterday or the day before two different stories on homelessness, LA and &#8212; was it New York? Maybe it was San Francisco. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it\u2019s out of control.  Homelessness is a larger problem than it\u2019s ever been, and where\u2019s this been reported?  How come it\u2019s taken seven years for this to make news?  (interruption) Well, no, it was not Hawaii, but you\u2019re right, Hawaii has a huge homeless population, too.  I mean, where do they send \u2019em?  Put them on the road to Hana and hope for a collapse?  It\u2019s not gonna happen.  But it\u2019s a rampant problem, and, meanwhile, we are being told every day that we got this growing economy, only 5% unemployment, that we\u2019re just surging here, economic growth and new job creation, and it\u2019s all BS.  None of it is true.  The homeless in liberal-run cities is out of control, homelessness is. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_115296\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushHisArmsWide585.jpg\"\/><BR\/>I think when Obama does these sound bites and tells these Syrian refugees they\u2019re the moral equivalents of the Pilgrims or the modern day Pilgrims, he\u2019s trying to insult us.  He\u2019s doing so purposely.  There is no unity in this man.  There is no desire for unification.  It\u2019s quite the contrary.<\/line><\/p>\n<p>One other thing here before we get to the other news that I promised we\u2019d get to here in this segment.  I really want you, when you have time today, go to RushLimbaugh.com and click on the link, it\u2019s a PDF, it will open as a PDF file in your web browser, &#8220;Countering Violent Extremism Training.&#8221;  It is a US department Homeland Security document advising their agents on the dos and don\u2019ts of various aspects of hunting down and finding potential terrorists. <\/p>\n<p>I focus on section C and Section F.  I haven\u2019t read section F, but when you do, if you\u2019re up to speed, you\u2019ll think this could have been written by the Muslim Brotherhood.  When you read section C, if you happen to own a business, a small business or large, if you\u2019re a CEO, if you\u2019re in human resources at any sizable organization, you\u2019ll think that this is exactly the kind of stuff you have to tell your employees to avoid a lawsuit, for crying out loud.  But all this is is a series of shackles and handcuffs on law enforcement agencies, things they can\u2019t do to suspects right in front of them. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no common sense in this.  It just violates common sense.  Anybody reading this, the first reaction you\u2019ll have, this doesn\u2019t make any sense.  It doesn\u2019t make any common sense. So what\u2019s going on?  When something doesn\u2019t make common sense, that\u2019s when people\u2019s minds are free to roam and try to come up with an answer to the questions or the things that are befuddling them with answers that do makes sense, because this doesn\u2019t make sense, the restrictions, the suggestions, the mannerisms, the techniques, none of this makes any sense in terms of actually stopping acts of terror. <\/p>\n<p>Common sense, in a legal sense, if you want to talk about this as common sense, you\u2019d have to talk about probable cause, reasonable suspicion.  If you\u2019re law enforcement and you want to stop an action before it takes place, the courts and everybody, the legal system, you have to have probable cause here before you can go further and investigate, search warrant. You gotta have reasonable suspicion.  And I want to read to you what the Supreme Court has written about reasonable suspicion and probable cause, because in the legal beagle world, reasonable suspicion and probable cause just mean common sense. <\/p>\n<p>This is a Supreme Court case Ornelas v. US, just a little excerpt here from one of the opinion rulings.  &#8220;Articulating precisely what &#8216;reasonable suspicion\u2019 and &#8216;probable cause\u2019 mean is not possible. They are commonsense, non-technical conceptions that deal with the factual and practical considerations of everyday life on which reasonable and prudent men, not legal technicians, act. As such, the standards are not readily, or even usefully, reduced to a neat set of legal rules.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><BR\/>Yet that\u2019s exactly what is being imposed here before the act.  It\u2019s like another Supreme Court ruling.  How do you define pornography?  <\/line><img id=\"eZObject_115295\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/truth.jpg\"\/><BR\/>Well, I don\u2019t know, but I know it when I see it.  Common sense is how you define pornography, and common sense we\u2019re not allowed to use anymore because it may offend somebody, which means it violates tenets of political correctness.  So common sense is out the window, and therefore probable cause and reasonable suspicion are out the window because they aren\u2019t possible.  They both rely on common sense.  And we can\u2019t even come to a consensus agreement on what common sense is, so focused has the left been on destroying language, destroying time-honored American values, that common sense has been rendered unusable or useless. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Articulating precisely what &#8216;reasonable suspicion\u2019 and &#8216;probable cause\u2019 mean is not possible. They are commonsense, non-technical conceptions that deal with the factual and practical considerations of everyday life on which reasonable and prudent men, not legal technicians, act.&#8221; Meaning, you know it when you see it.  But that\u2019s not permitted in the Obama countering violent extremism training.  Oh, because we must protect who we are in our values and not violate who we are and not devalue and violate our universal values that are being redefined by Obama and his Regime daily.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The poor Drive-Bys are so confused.
