Political Correctness, All lives matter and Trump

Political Correctness, All lives matter and Trump

Political Correctness

Americans are being duped by a complicit media and a very progressive bunch of politicians that PC is the new accepted way to speak.

In other blogs, I have spoken about how politicians “manage” the voters, PC speak is yet one more way of manipulating you.

bill-of-rights-hero-lg

Progressives hate the 1st amendment which says: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Political correctness abridges your freedom of speech and the technicality in that is, that congress is not enacting it, you are by allowing yourself to be shamed for thinking anything other than the progressive agenda.

So, to those out there that are afraid to say that “all lives matter,” shame on you!

“ALL LIVES MATTER!”

If you think about it, white folks are not “white” in the truest sense of the word, they are pink or as I like to say, as an artist; a mixture of titanium white, yellow ochre and a little alizarin crimson..   You will notice that those are all colors, or as my European friends type it “colours!”  Beneath that very thin veneer of pigmentation, we are all red…

This is my main problem with the NAACPHow has this group been allowed to exists?  To me, that is a very racist group and needs to be abolished as does any group that promotes one breed or race of human over another.

If I were to go out and create the NAAWF, Al Sharpton and every other race baiter out there would be calling for my head on a stick! Mob mentality would surely rule.  Indeed, it would be every bit as racest as the NAACP

“White is a color!”

The next president of this great nation needs to recognize that white is a color too, and find ways to mend the fences between the people of this nation.  Diversity is one of the things that make America a great nation, and looking at the evidence, this president has gone out of his way to tear this country apart; picking at race, much like picking at a scab, is an easy way to do it.  A lot of white folks voted for Obama so he has no ground on which to stand, regarding his assertions.

I would call for the disbanding of the NAACP!  I would also call for the disbanding of any remnant of the KKK.  The Confederate Flag is much more than a symbol of race and to target it as the cause for the hate from one young person who is mentally ill, is a huge miss-direction of the problem, and I would guess some politician somewhere thought, directing the anger of the people to something that is inanimate would be much easier than allowing the growing divide between the races to be the “focal point” as this young person wanted!

We have more that unit us, than divide us but yet, we focus on that which is most destructive rather than those things that bond us a people.  It is past time for change; and we the people need to lead by example.

The Trump Enigma

THE CELEBRITY APPRENTICE — Episode 912 — Pictured: Donald Trump — Photo by: Ali Goldstein/NBC

I have followed Donald Trump for years.

Why?  Simple, anyone that is that successful is worth studying.

  • How did he get there, what did he do to get there, how does he continue to do it?

Unlike most of the Billionaires’, Trump is more transparent thus, I believe that most of his business dealings are more transparent than say those of the Koch Brothers, or Mr. Soros.

Trump is a shaker and a mover and not afraid to make decisions.

His recent flip remarks about John McCain were just that, flip remarks and if you listen, he was entertaining an audience.  The audience loved him.  His remarks were not PC but I seriously doubt that he meant any dis-respect to the veterans.  As the matter of fact, he is fighting for them by all accounts.

Much like any comedian is not PC, Trump had them laughing; and I think took on the role of entertainer, as much as dealing with Frank Luntz.  Trump is no stranger to the lime light, so this is very likely the case.

So why is the media, and most of the GOP; and even the White House weighing in on this?

I am including this on this particular blog because this goes to the heart of the topic at hand… PC

Can you imagine if you had to carefully weigh each and every thought that came out of your mouth?  Each and every utterance is subjected to some sort of litmus test, of how it will poll!  How will the masses respond to it?  What will the media do with it?  What will your opponents do with it?  How will they spin it to make you look undesirable?

Take no prisoners!

chrischristie_ap_img_0

One of the things that attracted me to Chris Christie is his outspoken demeanor.  As the matter of fact, that happens to be one of the reasons I like Joe Biden.  Obama talks from carefully written speeches prepared for him by someone from the bowels of the white house and it is only when he goes off script, can you get a sense of who he is. 

barney-fife (2)

I believe that whoever is pulling his strings, could make Barney Fife look presidential, as long as he can read and emote….

Donald Trump however; has no “string pullers.”  Donald has “no handlers.”  Donald is the “real deal” who is far from perfect but, he is who he is, and is not some puppet propped up in front a teleprompter to sell you on the idea that feces is actually edible, and you can trust it if the government puts a stamp of approval on it!

The rest of the hopefuls get their funding from people who would normally bet on the horses, which horse will come in first.  They are always in campaign mode to get more money, as becoming president is a high stakes game!

Donald owes nobody anything!  If Donald says that if you vote for him that he will take care of the veterans, he has nobody but the voters to answer to!  No political favors to repay!

In my humble opinion, that is why the media, and the other politicians are running scared!  Donald is a loose cannon in their eyes. He cannot be controlled by those who support him financially, because he does not need their money!

DO8zEl4

We know that he is smart, and a hell of a business man.  How will he deal with Putin?  Will he take his shirt off and ride some horse in the middle of the forest with a rifle in one hand and some dead animal in the other to show the Russians that he too has “balls!”

trump1-061615

I think it is time we elect someone with balls, and not necessarily anatomical balls; just someone who can stand up to the world leaders and, flip them off if need be.  I am not suggesting a truculent attitude towards the other leaders in other countries, but i am suggesting that it is time for another Reagan.  We really need another “tear down this wall” moment.

“3” or “PPP”

“3” or “PPP”

“3” or “PPP”

As a seasoned parent, I must say that I want so much to “talk” to young parents who I see in the store, or other public places.

“1…..2…..two and a half….” Does this sound familiar?

This generation raising kids today are a generation who consequences were lost on.

There is a reason that our jails are full to the brim with people, and piss poor parenting (PPP) is part of the problem.

A home without a daddy, and or both parents having to work long hours to make ends meet, with the television and now video games raising kids also plays into the mix.

  • How could Sandy Hook happen?
  • How could Charleston Happen?
  • Why did Ferguson happen?
  • Why did Baltimore happen and why is it such a mess now?
  • Our values have gone wonky. Some of the reasons for this are as stated and some are simply garbage in garbage out from …you guessed it… Hollywood!

Liberals are decrying, “gun control, we need gun control!”

This country does not have gun control because of the NRA “the voice of the people.”  So the government is purchasing huge quantities of every kind of ammo on the market (with your tax dollars or borrowed money from China,) driving the prices out of sight, and making availability scarce.

And still, all of the issues that have happened; including Aurora CO and the Columbine shooting still happened, even though ammo is not as readily available.

“3”

Three is the answer.  As a parent, you should never get to “THREE!” 

“But if I swat my child, they will learn to hit!”

Are you f@#$%ng kidding me!?

Have you watched TV at all!  Even the cartoons are violent! 

If you don’t swat them, or find some sort of “consequence” for their actions or behavior, you will be raising monsters.  You will learn to hate yourself, for not swatting them or finding some way to deal with errant behavior.

Do you think that a swat on the padded diaper is going to hurt them?  The noise and the tone of your voice not cooing them, will be the trigger for the response you want.  They need to feel that you are not pleased with their actions, not physical pain….  There are consequences for their actions.

As they are grow, emotions are your pivotal mechanisms with which you can steer them.

As they mature, you can reason with logic and maybe pain, but before logic comes into play, use emotions.

Driving around yesterday, at least a half dozen drivers disobeyed openly and fragrantly the traffic laws, including red lights, no U turns and speeding to the extent that we are on side streets in populated areas, and they were doing at least 10 over!

Red lights and traffic signs are not suggestions!  They are the law, and there are consequences that will cost you, close to where your parents should have paddled your ass; in the wallet!

So, 1,2 swat!  Or 1,2 ok no ice cream, or toy, or whatever gets their attention and be consistent and do not give in.  Let them throw a fit and ignore them.  Put them in the corner for a timeout!

When you are taking your child to the store “if you are good on the way home I will stop for ice cream.”  If by some miracle they are good, a trip through the McDonald’s Drive thru is a godsend!  Odds are good that you will not be making that trip so, you may want to get them used to making that trip; without conditions first, then add the conditions.

Bad behavior must have consequences.  If you don’t do it, the judicial system will! 

There is a video on Facebook of a baby playing with an iPhone.  When the mother takes it away, the baby throws a tantrum and they laugh about it.  They give the phone back to the baby, and it stops the tantrum immediately, and goes back to playing with the phone.  They take it away again, and a tantrum ensues.  Who is controlling who, and if this continues, how do you think that child will grow up?

We see kids today graduating college and expecting the corner office with a 6 figure salary! When they can’t get it, or don’t get it, they don’t understand why?  PPP!

Dr. Spock was wrong.  Instincts are nice but your instincts must come from witnessing parenthood from someone that knew something, or your instincts are flawed.  Do not be afraid to seek wise counsel.

“Spare the rod, spoil the child.”

The Future

The Future

There are many salient words of wisdom that I could pass on to people that some might actually remember. 

In many of my writings, I do just that.

I think that one of the most germane “tips” that I could offer today is for folks to learn history.

History is cyclical.

  • The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire… Why?  What happened?
  • The rise of the Third Reich.  How did it happen?  What were the mechanism that took place during it, what happened during it and who took the fall? What changed as a result of it?
  • The Weimar republic, what happened and how did it happen.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperinflation_in_the_Weimar_Republic

I was in an office today talking with some folks and one person mentioned that she had just lost her job and found one where I was.  She was now part time but “thank god she got Obama Care!”

She went on to say that it was an HMO through Blue Cross.  She could not keep her doctor and had to use their doctors but her prescriptions were free, and her out of pocket was only $30.

My thoughts wondered to Greece as she was lamenting about not being able to keep her doctor, and how she felt that this doctor was not as good as hers.  But since it was basically free to her, she guessed that it was ok.

So what will the future look like?

When this monstrosity of a bill was passed that nobody in congress even read, business reacted by changing their employment practices.  Whatever the delimiter is between full time and part time, that is the max hours that they hire someone for.  If that means hiring twice as many folks keeping them all part time vs full time; thus dumping them all onto the health care exchange (taxpayer funded) so be it.

This is why many companies have agreed to raise minimum wage.  They don’t have to pay for health care or other benefits so they can afford to pay a little higher salary and they look like the good guys!

The employment numbers now “artificially” look good but, these are part time positions.  Some companies hire through agencies allowing them to bear the burden of insurance and regulations. They become contract positions much like “Kelly Girl.”

Other companies hire folks for just enough hours that the part time minimum wage employee, can stay on government assistance, get a stipend from the company while still qualifying for government assistance.  (TAX Dollars)

Now we have a huge percentage of the population at or under the poverty level, and each political party simply has to blame the other to create a voting base for themselves.  The narrative is that it is the other sides fault.  (It is both sides fault BTW.)

Those millions of dollars that each candidate raises is for the express purpose of manipulating you.  Each and every one of them is lilly white and all of the others are bad.  You know, throw grandma off the cliff bad!  Its all Bullshit smoke and mirrors.  

With the massive amounts of data collected, on you, they know where to scientifically play smear campaigns, and on which air time slots, during which programs to place them. for maximum effectiveness.

Swing states will be the target and Ohio will be one of the largest along with Florida!

The more that the government intervenes with its “social justice,” the more the people who bust their ass to work to get ahead, get screwed.   

Families are simply too busy being the middle class to “learn history.”  I don’t know what college teaches today, but obviously not history! 

Just what is your fair share of what someone else worked for?

There should be one price for goods and services and that is simply not the case.  If you are working, making good money, you pay much more than the person who is on welfare.  As the matter of fact, the person who stays home all day may not pay anything for the same goods and services that you pay through the nose for.

That is socialism. 

The progressive agenda that Greece is now the poster child for and why it does not work. Progressives buy votes with the middle class’s money.

The Greeks are so selfish or so misinformed that they want to continue to get free stuff, and allow, nay demand that the EU keep funding them.  They don’t know how to fish.  They have been on the government tit so long, that they are lost and somehow feel entitled to be provided for, much like your errant teenager who still lives at home after college because playing video games and sleeping half the day is much easier than getting out of bed and securing employment. Some parents enable them which is crippling them even worse!

This president is not the first to bring this country towards socialism, but he has pushed it much farther along than anyone before him by printing money and pushing social justice.

Greece is in trouble and China is now suffering from their economic policies.  What we are seeing in the news today could be the beginning of the “crash” that I have been talking about since 2012.

I hope that I am wrong.  This house of cards could topple and I am not sure what will happen if and when it does.

I suspect that some sort of financial reset may occur.  What will your retirement portfolio look like?

I would keep my eyes on what the richest people in the world are doing with their resources.

With Millions of folks crossing our southern border; most if not all adding to the already “entitled” section of our population, disaster is not too far away.

Will it be a repeat of the 20’s. 

http://www.history.com/topics/1929-stock-market-crash

The path that we are currently on is fraught with dangers.  Those who manipulate the masses, are playing Jinga with the economies of most of the world’s super-powers, knowing full well that printing money is not the answer, but yet they are all doing it.

Where do the current billionaire’s invest their money, what is in their safe?

Know history…

Most of history is not worth repeating.

By the way, entitled is a misnomer in the way it is used today. To get entitlements, that means to get something that you are entitled to!  That means that you did something to earn it!   So, I ask again….Just what is your fair share of what someone else worked for?

#bullies The New Frontier

#bullies The New Frontier

Bullies, the new frontier

Most, not all, but most Christians, are rather meek folks.

Using the bible as a standard, instead of Hollywood, Christians circle around it, and try not to stray from it.  In fact there are those who not only think that the Constitution is outdated “Ruth Ginsburg for one” they also think that the bible is outdated and needs to be changed.  Since God is not sitting at the negotiating table, they are taking it upon themselves to push the envelope to see how far they can push those meek Christians before they rise up.

I would submit to you that is exactly what the Japanese did with Perl Harbor.  That did not end well for them if you remember anything of your history.

Christianity is under attack, from not only these folks but some secular liberals who want to give communism another try.  Idiots who did not read or learn history….

The 2013 case regarding the Lesbians who sought out a Christian bakery to make them a cake is such a tactic to push the envelope, and bully the Christians.  To add further insult to injury, the judge has placed a gag order on the couple, forbidding them to “talk about” this case!

Not only are they being punished for standing up for what they believe, but their first amendment rights are being violated! They are being raped!

The couple lost their argument to this judge who subsequently fined them $135,000.00 as the lesbian couple said and I quote, they were mentally raped!

Are you Fucking Kidding Me!

Let me be perfectly clear about this!

It is not anyone’s business what you do in your bedroom.    What you do is between you and your maker.  If you happen to be atheistic in thought and “faith,” than you might be surprised when you draw your last breath but… I am not judging you nor will I.  Way above my pay grade.  No one else should judge you either, or me for that matter..

I have many friends who are gay; I know few, if any who are bullies!  That is why I count them as friends.  I happen to believe that there is strength in diversity not only of race, but gender, thoughts, mores, and sexual preference.  I also have friends who are yes….Democrats!  I truly care about all of these folks.

If this case holds, it opens the door for a law suits against the LGBT community as the sword cuts both ways.  This country is too damned litigious anyway and now we have people looking to be offended so they can sue…  Really???  What happened to good old stopping short in front of someone unexpectedly, and suing for whiplash?

5376263-large

Several other bakeries in the area were approached by reporters who told them they wanted same sex wedding cakes and in no time they found 7 that declined.  Were the reporters mentally raped too!?

This couple has been raped by the judicial system, not only in their freedom of speech, but also freedom of religion!  I am certain that lawyers will tackle this case and it may end up in the Supreme Court; which is so damned left leaning, that this may be a serious loss for religious freedom.

When you use your sexuality as a weapon, you are by definition a bully!

This couple is doing harm to the LGBT community by pressing this, and the backlash will come.

Public opinion with stories like this will no doubt further divide this country, and cause our eyes to be taken off the things that need to be focused on like foreign policy, and the lack of any clear direction from the white house.

You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it’s an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.

Original news story… http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/07/02/christian-bakers-fined-135000-for-refusing-to-make-wedding-cake-for-lesbians.html

The Bakery in Question

http://www.sweetcakesweb.com/index.html

If you look at their front page of the website, there is scripture on the front page!  As the matter of fact their whole site is full of scripture. Maybe they should have gone to a Muslim bakery to see how that went for them.

I am going to follow this story as nobody should be bullied.

Hey future bakeries approached by folks like this, here is a tip… Tell them sure, take their order and then go to the grocery store and have them make a cake as was ordered.  Mark it up 75% and wish them well. Order it from another bakery if you feel so strongly about it.

They get a cake, you didn’t physically make it; and no one knows the difference.

While I feel that this whole thing is a travesty of justice, I would really like to know what the kids that have the bakery truly had a problem with.  I feel like there are facts to this case that are simply not making the news.

It is a cake for god’s sake! They didn’t ask you to officiate, bless or ordain them, just make them a cake. If you truly love the sinner and not the sin, what is the big deal?  Is it worth all of this?  I personally think you played right into their hands, and opened the door for copy cats.

Speed-Limit-Sign-K-8316

Speed limit signs are confusing to some and a form of entrapment for others.

I would like to see a change to these signs and here is why.

Traveling down most highways where small towns are concerned, we see things like 75mph and a few miles later 45mph than 35 mph and in some towns it even gets slower.

Here is what I would like to see.  I would like to see incorporated in that signage “for the next 15 miles or 1000 yards” whichever the case may be.

There are simply too many small towns that depend upon traffic tickets for revenue which is bogus at best, and downright dishonest at worst.

While I am a firm proponent of money from tickets going to education or some other account, other than for law enforcement, or pet projects of some city; that is a different cause.

Alerting drivers that the speed will be XX for the next X miles is one way to assist drivers in maintaining the proper speed and not get cited for failure to control vehicle speed.  At least they can set the cruise and have an idea that it is not going to 75 and then back to 35, 2 miles later!

Some towns post no warning of lower speed ahead and the police person is sitting right by the sign with the radar waiting for you to cross some imaginary line.  We need consistency with signage and we need to do away with the profit motive for towns with speed traps.

Since I live in Texas, I would first address this to Governor Abbott.

I will go to change.org and formerly draft something for them and I would appreciate each of you to go and sign the petition.

If this catches on in Texas, possibly we can make it catch on in other states.

Denmark vs USA

Denmark vs USA

Facebook, where the ideas coalesce, and intelligent folks discover just how stupid some are.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.”

“Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue.”

The great common denominator of the day is social media.  It levels the field as it were and if you are of a mind to “let it all hang out” here is your soapbox!

Blogs are another good place to be shown as a fool, if you are indeed one.

Today one of my friends posted on Facebook this “Occupy Democrats” post regarding Denmark and how wonderful it is.

denmark

Without further investigation one would happily share this and ask, what the hell, why cant we do that?

  • Free University
  • Free Childcare
  • Free Healthcare

First off my friends, there are no free lunches.  Just like lunches; there are no free Universities, or childcare, or healthcare. Someone pays for it!  They have to!  So who and how is the question.

  • Denmark enjoys a tax rate of 55.4% at the low end up to 65.9%..
  • Denmark also has a VAT or Value Added Tax of 25%

All of this free stuff is broken out into different sections of their overall tax structure, much like the USA except ours is like 39%

So for you who did not pay attention in school when we talked about such things as math, lets do a little exercise should we?  

That highly skilled Burger flipper is getting $20 and hour.  Immediately 55.4% goes to taxes so he or she is in effect making $8.92 an hour.

The VAT is pretty flat at 25% on frivolity such as that burger (prepared food vs. grocery store food,) so that burger if this is correct is $5.60 plus $1.40 VAT making that burger $7.00.  That is not the drink or fries, just the burger.  

Folks, that $18.000.000.000 in debt that This President has put us in with Obama care and all of his entitlements will force the next president to institute a VAT or some other form of taxation to pay for this. If not that than most likely there will be a worldwide economic collapse as the countries monetizing their debt (printing money buying our own debt with faux money) with their house of cards, will come crashing down.

Liberal thinking must be a mental disease.  Only an insane person would walk a country down the road to its destruction, like we have done during the last 6 plus years!

The Danes have the free universities to encourage people to take advantage of it for higher paying jobs and to be globally competitive.  Obama wants the tax payers to foot the bill for higher education for certain people to be more competitive but, his agenda is social justice, not world competitiveness.

The Danes can hire and fire at will as they are not constrained by the laws that we have in this country so I look for business owners here to be under attack as well.  

The work week in Denmark is about 35 hours a week for the women and 41 hours a week for the men.

Denmark tries to keep their commuting time down to a minimum which is in stark contrast to the US where we have “downtown” as the place to work, forcing people to sit in long lines of traffic burning fossil fuels, and wasting hours and hours a week sitting, breathing carbon monoxide, and other noxious fumes.

The Danes on average live longer than Americans and I would have to think that their commute plays a role in the equation.

If the US had the brains of the Danes, they would think outside the box and Decentralize business’s  as to cut down on congestion on the freeways.

A couple of other differences between them and the US is the amount of people and types of government.

I noticed that I have some readers in Denmark, if I have something wrong, or you would like to contribute please do.

My facts come from hours of research and I am certain that I don’t fully appreciate the eccentricities of your government and its taxation schedules and lets face it, the facts that I have found could be in error.

Either way; it appears to those of us that know how to use a calculator that when it all boils down to the nuts and bolts, our burger flippers are making about the same as your burger flippers, ours are simply having to pay extra for the things that your high taxes are paying for currently.

Guns, Violence and Video games, is there a connection?

Guns, Violence and Video games, is there a connection?

My heart goes out to the people in Charleston. The senseless violence in this country seems to be more and more frequent.  While the left will tell you it is the lack of gun control, and use this and every occurrence of gun violence they can to push an agenda; they are dead wrong.

Going after the law abiding citizens’ guns is like going after silverware because there are so many fat people around.  Yes, it really is that ludicrous!

While the country is grieving for these folks; we have idiotic politicians out there using this as a bully pulpit to push a very liberal agenda which also happens to be a dangerous one.

In my business it is necessary to do something called a “root cause analysis.”  Simply stated, what happened, how did it happen, and how can we prevent it from happening again.

  • It is more than putting magnetometers at the entrances of all public buildings with security guards.
  • Do we attend church via skype, and turn Xenophobic?
  • Do we use this as an excuse to not attend church?
  • Do we listen to it on the TV or Radio and think that is good enough?
  • Maybe we use this as an excuse to qualify the absolute lack of a god as a good “god” would not allow this to happen.

The problem is much deeper than this and I am glad that this kid is still alive so we can learn from him, what set him off.

Instinct tells me that when investigated, you will find that he spent untold hours playing violent video games with other on-line people, and simply took it to the next level.  These games are so realistic that I fear that after enough of it, the lines between reality and fiction become so blurred that killing for real is simply a “level up” for him.

Since he gave up so easily, my guess is that he is a coward, and picked a soft-target like a church where the odds of him getting hurt were minimal.  Being a black church, there may have been an element of racism involved, which made the target more palatable.  His racism again would be interesting to study as how and why?  Was he picked on or bullied by blacks as a school child?

With the uproar in Baltimore and Ferguson, who knows if that pushed him in that direction?

We cannot afford to ignore these “simulators for killing” any longer.  Mental health needs to be a priority for this, and all future administrations as technology pervades our lives and these “kids” who have so much time on their hands and play these games for hours and hours on end.

Cars kill, knives kill, baseball bats kill, just about anything can be used as a weapon!

The common denominator is people.  People kill,
and the motives need to be looked at.  Go, look for yourself at some of these games and the realities of them.  Go to your local game store and look at demos of them, watch these kids as they play these games.

They are dropped into a war-time situation where killing with realistic effects are over the top.  I would not be surprised to find that this creep that killed those folks suffers from some sort of PTSD from video games!

Now, go take on the day!

Sort it out in Court

Sort it out in Court

Watching a video shot by a “white witness” would make one think that the police were out of line.

Listening to the witnesses who saw more than a video focused on the police trying to quell chaos, is another.

Backstory:

An end of year graduation party was planned in a private area for a few teens, and some adults.  This was an invitation only event where many different teens were invited, including those of color.

Because it was talked about on social media some took that to mean that they could simply ignore the rules and crash the party via jumping over fences etc.

When asked to leave by security guards and some parents, tempers flared on both sides which  escalated the conflict until police were called.  That should have most probably been their first call as these kids jumping fences already demonstrated that they had no respect for the adults, or the security guards; and apparently the police.

By now the conflict was irreversible and when police arrived and tried to sort things out the teenagers were non-compliant with officer’s orders to “freeze.”  In fact they began running in all directions as we have seen over the last few months in different cities around the country.

As one of the girls walked away instead of running, she was detained and when she fought back “resisted arrest” the officer detained her by force. This is probably SOP.

When two of her friends tried to help her “resist arrest” the officer felt his life might be in danger and pulled his service weapon.  Had either of those kids had a weapon, I suspect the news would be different than what it is today.

This was not a racial issue.  This was and is an issue about those who don’t respect the cops and or the laws that we have here in this country.  When a cop tells you to freeze, you comply!

Had Michael Brown Complied, he would still be alive!

Had Eric Garner Complied, he would still be alive and most likely still selling loosies in Staten Island.

We don’t know the story of Freddy Gray because the Baltimore Mayor and others have this case so screwed up we may never know.  I suspect if he had complied, he would still be alive as well but; we don’t know for sure.

If the first two events had not transpired, Baltimore would be a footnote; and McKinney would not even make the local news much less national news, as McKinney was not sparked by racial unrest.  It was sparked by some having no respect for the rules and no respect for the cops.

  • Should the cop have brandished a weapon?
  • Here is the better question, should he have had to?
  • At a certain moment in time was he afraid for his life?

Those were not twelve year old soccer players trying to intervene on the “bikini clad” girls behalf.  Those were big boys that could have hurt him had they wanted to.

All cops should have body cameras on and active, when they are on duty.

This video should be instantly transmitted up to the cloud and to a monitor on their supervisor’s desk so they the supervisor has video of the event as well as the teen journalist video with a cell phone, possibly with an agenda.

If a situation becomes hot, the supervisor can decide to act.

The cop’s camera can vindicate him or her and their actions or indict them.  If nothing else has come out of these events, it should be that the cops need to present their side with video evidence too!

If the video would indict them, then they should not be cops.

As a kid growing up here in Texas I can tell you first hand I have had my fair share of run-ins with the cops that were un-justified.  I never, ever ran from them and always did as I was instructed.  My hands were always in plain sight as I was not wanting to be an accident!  The time to fight oppressive people is in court, not on the side of the road, you are in their world, in court; not so much!

The bottom line is this, if a cop tells you to freeze, dammit freeze!  How the hell hard is that?

Interesting Scam

Interesting Scam

scam 515

There is not a day that goes by that someone does not try to scam me or “my e-mail” into opening some document.  Of course it will be infected or at the very least take me to some porn-site or some site for Viagra or some such non-sense.

I have spoken about these ad nauseam so I won’t go in to too much detail about the latest.

The e-mail starts as an email from the bank regarding a wire transfer that was aborted by my bank from my account.  “Click on the link to view the reason why it was aborted.”

There is a number with a dollar amount, my e-mail which was collected from something and…a link to a dropbox account which is where the Trojan or what have you lives.

This could be anything from some innocuous advertisement to ransom ware.

There was no bank logo on the e-mail and hovering over the link you can tell enough that you should not click on it.

The criminals and ne’er-do-wells are forever trying to get you to self-destruct, so don’t take the bait.

Keep really good anti-virus and malware software updated and running on your computer and make certain that your important stuff is backed up to some sort of non-volatile medium.

Oh, and Happy Friday!

Why II or, Gods and Insects II

Why II or, Gods and Insects II

I asked myself, why anyone would put this kind of hatred in a public space and on display for the secular and non-secular world to witness. I am of course talking about new signs popping up touting the killing of Jews as worship.

  1. If you want to conquer a country you must first divide it. It would be much easier to conquer a country divided and fighting itself.
  2. You take control of the media so you can keep control of the narrative.
  3. You divide the folks through propaganda, provided by the media and other outlets like sitcoms and movies that attack conservative values from notable people who we see in movies and sitcoms.
  4. You keep the people distracted through sports venues, 100’s of TV channels and other internet distractions which disseminate a narrative that is in line with an agenda.
  5. Silence dissenting views through arms of the government and you distract with issues which demand your attention through outrageous acts of barbarism.
  6. You pull out a page from a “magician’s handbook” by causing the world to look at the other hand and not the one containing the next “trick.”
  7. You allow or instigate actions which are so heinous that the government is forced by its citizen’s to call out to its government to come in and revise those rights that we hold dear to protect us from the bad people in the world and finally we disarm the citizen’s making them helpless and unable to care for themselves both with armory and even through the control of their ability to fend for themselves if the infrastructure were to break down.
  8. You destroy any candidate from either party that might actually do something to stop this train wreck from happening. Make no mistakes, there are people on both sides that want this country to change and fall in line with the rest of the world.

Let’s see, we have this imaginary war on women, we have racial strife, and we have a division between the law and the people.  Now all cops are painted with the same broad brush that a few power hungry cops have used, overstepping their boundaries.  We have millions of illegals in the country that the tax payer is supporting through taxes that are burdensome and unfair to say the least.

We have a media that is complicit to the left (far left) calling any kind of criticism of the current regime or the far left established empire of the Clinton’s just foolish talk.  We have smoke and fire and a lot of the dots depicting these folks as a dynasty who clearly thinks of themselves as Gods and the rest as insects; being protected by the far left media.

You enlist Hollywood to get familiar faces to speak to its base and against those who see the Wizard of OZ for who he /she really is, just a power hungry money grubbing entity whose agenda is gaining more money and more power, damned the consequences. Even if that means giving control of our Uranium to Russia, though backdoor deals!

The little people, you and I are kept in the dark by this media and when we listen to or hear talk that is of a nature that is diametrically opposite of the far left they we are painted as Tea Baggers and far right loons.

“BTW a Tea Bagger is a very offensive term which means one who puts their “balls” in someone’s mouth during sexual acts, which many find offensive but yet the left really does not care if they are offensive.”

Bill Maher-20111102-4

Most of the people have little time to study current events so many don’t spend their precious TV time watching the news.  The newspaper is mostly liberal so if they read it they get the progressive point of view.  Objectivity does not sell papers or subscriptions and let’s face it, they are left leaning.  To further that, a majority of people only care what is going on in the world if they are directly affected.  If someone comes to their house and demands their guns or else, they might care then, of course by then it would be too late.

Silencing the opposition through coercion, corruption, bribes and or by destroying their credibility by having people of distinction publically attack them in malicious manners, much like Harry Read lying about Romney not paying taxes to dissuade voters from voting for him.  I find it interesting that he had no remorse for his lies and felt that the ends justified the means.

And finally through free speech you allow hate mongers and or other groups to sew seeds of discontent that are so malevolent the people rise up and demand that it be stopped which the government then has a free pass to modify your rights in such a way that you give them up.

That is how we got the patriot act, porn scanners, groping of grandma and children and strip searching of anyone that they like, and the government’s ability to spy on you without a warrant.  Do you feel safer now?

The hateful speech in question would require a change in the 1rst amendment which conversely would affect all law abiding citizen’s ability to speak out against those things which they found offensive.  By pushing the envelope by allowing these Jihad signs in New York; they are hoping to get enough people  to cry out to their government to do something about it. 

Top Down, Bottom up, inside out!

no-free-speech (1)

Do you really want to forfeit more of your rights, to stop those with hateful rhetoric from offending you?

“A word regarding the second amendment.”

We as people are lulled into a false sense of security. We have the NRA lobbying for the legal gun owner of this country to keep and bear arms.  If it came down to a firefight between you and a criminal the odds are good that the criminal would already out gun you as they might have Russian made automatic weapons or even American made automatic weapons as they are not restricted by laws.

If it came down to fighting our government “you know the real reason that there is a second amendment” to stave off a tyrannical government, I know for a fact that drone strikes would not be off the table, much like we are seeing in Syria today where the government uses poison gas on its people.

So, if you are under the illusion that owning a handgun gives you some modicum of protection from anyone other than the common thug, you are dreaming.

If the NRA wants to ramp up the conversation, how about my ability to own an RPG or two?

The bottom line is to vote intelligently and get your news from something other than the liberal left or the loonies out in Hollywood who have some lollipop idea that the world would be great if we all fell in line like the rest of the countries who limit your speech, force PC speech and oh yes, limit your rights to guns or religion and keep you all working for the “common good” thus destroying capitalism.

The only wealthy people are the Gods, and the rest are insects!  The insects work for the Gods; or they are exterminated, which one are you?

You don’t need the government to stop idiots. You just need yourself and a few friends who also think outside the box.
