Image
(AP) The Boson Ancient Order of Hibernians held a news conference at the Hibernian Hall to denounce the 'explotiation' of Irish culture and Irish people and Irish-Americans. A visibly angry Timothy O'Toole spoke briefly to reporters and supporters before heading for Boson Harbour to dump Earl Grey Tea into the ocean in a New Boson Tea Party after refreshments in the hall bar. "Cultural appropriation is always wrong, whether it is of one racial group, or another," he said reading from a prepared statement.  We demand removal of offending images and words that are designed to belittle Irish people, or conversely appeal to Irish people on a consumerist level.  Irish religious traditions are mocked and exploited in such Disney Corporation movies as "Darby O'Gill and the Little People.  This work is still available online, and for purchase as a Blue Ray DVD.  Enough!"  "Some Hollywood screen writers and producers seem to get a big laugh out o...

Hands off the monuments to Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Grant! (Boson Workers) 22 June 2020

Image
G. Washington Statue Portland Ore In recent weeks, participants in demonstrations against police violence in the United States have demanded the removal of monuments to Confederate leaders who waged an insurrection to defend slavery during the American Civil War of 1861-1865. But the justifiable demand for the removal of monuments to these defenders of racial inequality has been unfairly accompanied by attacks against memorials to those who led the Civil War that ended slavery and the American Revolution, which, in upholding the principle of equality, for the first time placed a question mark on the institution of slavery. Last Sunday, a statue of Thomas Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of Independence, was torn down in Portland, Oregon, followed four days later by a statue to George Washington, who led the forces which defeated the British during the American Revolution. On Friday, protesters in San Francisco knocked over a statue of Ulysses S. Grant,...

(Higginson Boson landed on Half Moon Island in 1630 to found the Boson Crown Colony) (UPI) The Higginson Boson Statue was not pulled down Saturday, 20 June 2020, as promised.  The wide base of the statue was too difficult for the amateur statue topplers to overcome.  Construction labor unions contacted to help with the demolition claimed they would have to be paid overtime and night time pay rates which the impoverished protesters simply could not raise in a short amount of time.  A GoFundMe page has been set up to pay for the statue's destruction.  Members of the crowd laughed at the suggestion that they should take construction trades classes to learn how to safely demolish works of public art. Boson's Mosque of Mohamed has been holding classes and free video showings of Islamic State "Infidel Art Destruction" that are open to all who simply recite the Shahada .  Special sessions are held for LBTQ community members on the mosque's rooftop.  ...

East Blue Hills 'Magic Bus' Removed - Tiresome Tourists Wearing Out Rescue Crews (WNPR) 19 June 2020

Image
After numerous rescue missions to help wayward novice woodsmen and woodswomen in the East Blue Hills Reservation the Massachusetts State Police have used a helicopter to lift an abandoned school bus out of the woods. The bus was used by a hapless homeless person who lived in the bus and kept a diary as he drank himself to death during the winter of 2002. When spring came and the body was discovered by a hiker and the diary was sent to the dead man's family and a novelist used the entries to craft a complete book about living in the woods and drinking.  The original book was called "Two Months in the Woods" to echo the Henry David Thoreau work "Two Years In The Woods."  Robin Williams was then featured in the movie "Shouting at the Trees" which spread the story around the world and made drinking in the woods 'a thing.'   Soon people from many countries were coming to Massachusetts to visit the 'Magic Bus.'   More tourists and...

Image
 (UPI) A Boson vegan couple who call themselves 'Omni-arborists' have been charged with chopping down an eating over 20,000 trees bordering the East Blue Hills Reservation.  While technically not part of the state park, the area is still a section of protected forested lands.

City Council President Ema Strickland, who is openly gay, has contacted police about spray painted slogans on her home in Boson's Harrad Square neighborhood.  Her Ring doorbell cam and other security CCTV cameras captured a black clad figure painting 'BLM' on her house on Thursday, 18 June 2020. "I have attended protests and helped bail out people falsely accused of blocking streets and throwing frozen water bottles at the police," said the visibly angry Councilor Strickland.  "I support Black Lives Matter and took a knee wearing an African kunte scarf as solidarity.  I support Reparations for Slavery that occurred in the US southern state 150 years ago.  Each Black person, even immigrants, would receive either $350,000 up front, or a guarrantteed $10,000 a year tax free for the rest of their lives.   So, why target me?  I'm openly gay; I am a member of an oppressed marginalized group that has a right to be heard.  But, no one has a right to sp...
