Its official, Florida is a third world state...

 Get you shots before going and also be sure your not some of those disallowed persons.

Why do that?  Florida has the same status as a larger bunch of third works shithole countries.  Of course we have  few others trying for the same status and they are well known red states.

Its a damn shame. The RQP is broken and they poison everything the touch.

So keep you stuff hidden and head down and whatever you do don't go there.

Texas, is for stupid

 Those fools forget Pharaoh, and will pronounce the plagues they will fall to..


Its likely the same theology that the profess will not be the orthodoxy they empowered.   


So bring it, the stupidity of greed and power will be their own source of infighting.


Heads down people.

Rethugs, Qthugs, and asshats

 While in the past I had a thing for DasGov being mostly idiots its was mostly misplaced as it was selective portions of DasGov that was mostly broken.  The fiends on the right did what they claimed was good and broke it more.

So the only think I can say about them is they live and thrive on hate.

So its not so much they do terrible things, its that when they do it we are unsurprised.  Indeed we have such low expectations of them and they do the worst.

 

Keep you head down, they are dangerous.

So that day will forever be marked with remembrance.

You are being lied to, Still!

The great lie has a following and some of the greatest since the 1930s America First.   It has been 80 years same and still the play book.  

First they are fascist, the extreme right believes your rights are an inconvenience.

One of the first steps to Fascism is ultra nationalism.

Mixing government intertwined with religion.

Human rights are suspended or adjusted.

Scapegoats are found and named.

Control the media.

Obsessed with security of the nation.

The criminal element has a plan to seek revenge.

And it just goes on.   They lie to get you on their side.  They do not want to "own the libs" its about outright grab to make the libs the scapegoat and lie about what or who they are.

The arts and any other prohibited speech are being designated as designated profane or unacceptable in our schools and colleges.  

In a free country dissenting opinions are allowed.


So as before keep you powder dry and you head down.

You are being lied to!

 We start with encyclopedia words and meanings.

At the moment of conception and the first weeks we have a ball of cells called a blastocyst.  Its not a baby, at best it has potential to be one.

After about 10-12 weeks its called an embryo, placenta is formed.  That assumes successful implantation in the uterus, anywhere else in the woman's body has fatal consequence without intervention.  NOTE: we do not have science, surgery, or drugs, that can correct (relocate) an ectopic pregnancy.

A few weeks later its called a fetus. we need many more months to be even viable.  

It is not a baby until it is born, as in outside the uterus, and external to the woman's body.

To survive outside the womb at all the fetus must be 23 weeks and born to a NICU where for the next 5 months the baby will hopefully develop.  At 23 weeks that's currently 50-50 chance of surviving.  Usually if the premie (premature birth) survives it will have behavioural and learning delays or deficiencies. Many problems early on concern brain, eyes, and lung development as well as status of other organs.   That and availability of highest tech NICU.

Any tech that get us viability before 19 to 20 weeks requires the science level that is currently fiction and it would be a test tube baby as its outside the uterus   Right now there are many issues with test tube babies.  Science will get us there but really the same religions that claim life beginning at conception would have hissy fits with test tube babies.  Oh by the way, if fertilization occurs in a test tube that's a blastocyst not even an embryo or a fetus.  The ethics of that is still debated and may go to the banned column.

With basic human development we need typically 39-40 weeks for a normal birth.

All that said:

Religion may have life beginning at birth but science screams not remotely possible with even unforeseen tech to get earlier than where we are maybe 20 weeks (~8 out 100 may make it to 23 weeks).

Bang that against the first amendment:

QUOTE:

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. END QUOTE

Specifically no law establishing a religious views or opinion.  That means prohibiting abortion based on the religions that says life begins at birth is now federal law based on religion and not science.  That to me means the justices acted against the Constitution and its prohibitions of this country and are promoting religion. At a minimum they need to be impeached, disbarred, and potentially higher crimes of obstruction.  The last court that made grievous errors and removed or denied right was the one that gave us Dred Scott.  Like that one, the current court will be known to history for their crimes.

We The USA are not a theocracy.  While our founders respected religion and they were diverse in their beliefs they knew from our English and other forebears religion has no place in government.  They also believed the government has no say in any religion or the support thereof.  Their knowledge of that is their own experience or their predecessors fled other countries on that issue alone!

For this keep your powder dry and well hidden.  For surely the redcoats will come for your cannon and shot.

Freedom, I won't!

 The strongest words are yes and no.  If one has the convictions to say no, one has to mean it.   If one says yes they must accept what that leads to.

So we have this thing called freedom.  Its supposedly assured, not granted by law that the government cannot restrict it without very good reasons.  That freedom goes hand in hand with responsibility.  You permit or cause something to happen your responsible.  

If freedom exists by sufferance of your community neighbors then its not freedom guaranteed.  When the law is reduced to a promise its is not law.  When laws exist as threat to freedoms its not law, its oppression.

An aside the Constitution is a complex document but its written in clear english.  It does little to guarantee anything.   It does clearly prohibit what the government can do and limits the conditions that it may.  That is rooted in our history and the abuses of  our historic former overlord King George III.  

Rule by the minority is evil.

“There is a difference between exercising religious beliefs and imposing them on others. Our Constitution fiercely protects the former and expressly prohibits the latter.”
― Joseph Kennedy III

When a group has enough power to force their beliefs over law or unwritten and unspecified freedoms are suspended the Constitution  becomes an empty promise.

In any case people will die.  Those who caused it or permitted it will deny they had any part, they have no honor as they will claim their are not responsible.

Keep you head down and powder dry..

Things that fall from the sky

 Interesting about those claiming to be patriots.  They are out to destroy government in the name of "fixing" it.  While I feel at times it does deserve a good old fashioned whoppin, that doesn't mean anarchy.  Seems the kiddies are unaware of the results of what what they do might result in and ripple back on them.

Anarchy is when votes are denied, some people are treated more poorly that others.  Equality or even justice does not exist in anarchy, just those getting theirs, enreally at the cost of others skin.  That and government is not improved but reduced to the the hind end of the pig, the stinky part.  The fellow before claimed he might drain the swamp and so far that lie turned out to be metastatic in nature.  He was the swamp and filling it with his dullest claiming they were the best  was a great step backward.  Cleanup of that ecological mess is going to take time and money.

So that is counter to the droppings of birds aka birdshit, and other things that fall from the sky like fools, meteors, and remnants of spacecraft.    So we have anarchists that claim to be patriots and prove to be destructive ignorant dolts. Like the stuff falling from the sky they are pointless and recognizable by the stains they leave.  If you are out to fix something, try not to make it more broken and still sorta working as then you have to live with that, and it may break you.  Missing, deficient, or plain out of control is not fixed, just more broken and likely is a worse way.  Think of it as a half dead almost corpse still twitching and soon to start smelling bad.

In the end the government is people, some mostly broken but at least useful the rest are total hash and need a good whippin behind the shed.  Why?  Because their don't give a rats bottom for you (the collective, you all) and its their pockets and little empires that makes em feel good and all you wishing you had some.  See when you create a lot of people that don't go they tend to get riled up and if they don't have a seat at the table its bad.  Like King George III bad, his pesky colonial rebels didn't want that but at the end of the day someone decided, enough.

So when you blame anyone look to those that are glomming theirs and claiming its the other guys not getting it right when the former guys rendered it FUBAR. Also check the mirror as it may be yourself. Then the idiots will try to be spicy but will make easily visible targets of their selves.  They don't understand what they do, or why.  They are doing it, badly! 

As usual keep your head down, powder dry, and be prepared.

9-11/2001

At work in NH that day.

That morning I'd been chasing some of the usual suspects to get past a minor internal network problem when the 2M HT on the desk.  The people on the radio were talking about a crash into the NY WTC.

So I jumped on computer and hit a news site and well it showed a still of a passnger aircraft hitting the tower.

I proceeded to tell my boss (company president) and he put to word out to everyone there.  At that point a TV was bought into the conference room and a station brought up showing what had just happened and then a bit later the second plane...

As the news came if the crash into the pentagon was shown..

Later in the day was the crash in PA,  many died preventing further horror.


To everyone there in the conference room..

Once might have been an accident,

Twice is a coincidence of suspicion,

Three times, no that was enemy action.

Four was confirmation and action had already started.

The towers fell and hope was crushed with it.


The horror and all is recorded in history and many minds forever.

We embarked on wars to punish those that are believed to be complicit or actors.

Now 20 years later a whole generation never saw it, have no memory, some have lost a parent or two as a result of it.

The first on the scene had it seared into their minds and more lost their lives. 

Others its a story from our history.

One thing for sure the players that brought that to hour shore are likely captured, dead, or burnt out outcasts from running.  The revenge of pursuit had time as a party to ending them.

We lost a lot of people to the fools errand of fixing a few countries that are unfixable.


As always take care, Stay safe, protect yous and those around you.

Freedom to be stupid...

This is the Independence day weekend.

Its also about the small rodent, lemmings.  When the overpopulate they exceed their environments ability to support them and they are mass die off.  With Covid I see the very freedom loving and unmasked rethugs partying like it is 1999.  They will run out of party places due to disease and maybe disappear. 

Its an apparent I don't give a shit for anyone but their selves.

We have maybe a few months to a year to see if they don't kill themselves off or their buddies.
What they forget is many get a secondary fatigue disorder and that if they don't get lung or cardiac disease.  We shall see and when the infected reaches the scary height we can bury them.

So those that are keeping distance and using protection...

Keep that powder dry and well hidden as those bastards will be hunting for anything
they can get.

Tulsa and the pandemic...

Well welcome to Tulsa...

Currently a pandemic city and growing new cases at an alarming rate.

Along come the Rethugicans, six of which in the advance crew are covid postive!
They have been around and social... Wow!

With some potential for upwards of 80K for the external convention
and the 19K internal to the hall this means a high infection rate after all
its not a big deal for the younger set.

  Except for that study the average admission age is decreasing and its currently
  in the 20-35 group that seems to be getting the Wuflu and its hospital admissions
  showing that.

In a few days all those infectees will be returning home, you forgot they are
attending from everywhere.  Airports, airplanes, and busses oh my.   All
those home states if they have in under control or at least tamped down will
get a fresh drink of the virus from active spreaders that devoutly believe the
mask is a muzzle on them and doesn't prevent anything.  So they will not.

So just think your bud or friend that went to the convention just might have
the virus that could spread to you, your mom or dad, maybe the kid.
Remember to thank him if they get that tube out.

Ponder that bug...  Its summer and the hot weather that was supposed to
tamp it down like the flu. In some states have had over two months of
hot and the rest are now hot for at least a month and the bug Covid-19
seems to like it and and infections are increasing more.    The hot south
both east and west are teeming with cases and grwoing fast.

Oh right, all that is fake news...  until it isn't.

For the rest that have their stuff together, keep the powder dry and hidden,
head down and running for cover.  The next wave of shit is about to arrive.

And yes likely wearing MAGA hats, Making Anarchists Grieve Again.

why its Lives Matter...

Things are strange…

Black Lives Matter.

I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person,
but I was born white, into a two-parent household which now,
whether I like it or not, makes me “Privileged”, a
racist & responsible for slavery.

The yabut, I have a mostly Irish and some Indian heritage.  I've seen
the old signs that were still on buildings in NYC in the '70s saying
Irish and Negros need not apply.  I guess some are more privileged
than others.  Or the term privilege has acquired new meanings.

Irish Lives matter...


I am a fiscal & moral conservative, which by today’s standards,
makes me a fascist because I plan and budget to support myself.
I'm also a New England Yankee, making me legendary for being
frugal.

Woman's lives matter...

I went to High School and college, an education and have always
tried to hold a job.  But I now find out that I am not here
because I earned it, but because I was “advantaged” and not
because I knew technology and could apply it.

Education matters!

I am not straight, which according to straight folks, makes
me a queer and worthy of abuse.

Queer Lives Matter

I am almost 70, making me now a useless eater who does understand
Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat and computer design and operation.

Old Lives Matter...

I think and reason, and I doubt or research much of what the
“mainstream” media tells me, which makes me a skeptic.

Truth Matters!

I believe in the 2nd Amendment, which makes me a de facto
member of the “vast NRA gun lobby”.  But I'm not.

Our Lives Matter...

I am proud of my heritage & our inclusive American culture, making
me a xenophobe. No just a citizen of the great experiment called
democracy.

Citizens Lives Matter

I believe in the defense & protection of America for & by all citizens,
now making me a militarist.

I am proud of our flag, what it stands for and the many who died to
let it fly, so I stand & salute during our National Anthem –
so I must be a racist.

I believe in hard work, fair play, fair pay in accordance
to each individual’s merits.  Being big on the proceeds of my
efforts makes me a thieving capitalist.

Work Lives matter.

I believe our system guarantees freedom of effort – I expect for
my taxes those services they pay for, which must make me a
socialist.

Peoples Lives Matter!

If all this inane noise wasn’t enough to deal with, now there are those that
claim to not know which restroom to use?  That means your stupid.

Trans Lives Matter...

I have come to terms with the new me and I’m sure who I am.  I just
haven't a clue who making up all the terms for what I am not.

Why because every person matters, not any one race, ethnic,
or background.

Lives Matter!

Keep your powder hidden, keep it dry, and your head down.

Selfish to the max...

Quoted from elsewhere and generally like many...

"We've been locked down long enough.  Protect the elderly and let the younger go and get passed this thing once and for all.  Covid is not a death warrant for the young!"

Well, isn't that cute.  You selfish turd!

So lets protect the elderly, those with mostly likely a third of their lives 
still ahead.  One fucking question asshat?  HOW?  There is no treatment 
other than keep 'em alive and hope, no vaccine.  And if the rate does not 
slow down maybe no hospital bed either.

The young (under 40) are not safe.  Just fewer die, isn't that great.  So no your not 
assured you will die but you may loose the lottery.

But be of good cheer you may live at home with elders or insist on visiting them 
and and if you are lucky to get it with minor effect they still are very likely to get 
it with major effect. So that means:

You get to grieve, thought not see them die, or maybe even buried.
You may get to be a orphan.
You got your inheritance, must have wanted that. Enjoy!


In the end your brought the bug home and that makes YOU responsible.
Ponder that, what you did, and its result. 

There is no "past this thing".   It has every look of the polio epidemics
where every year parents had to worry their kids would get it and maybe 
not survive it.  Even with the first vaccine  it took nearly a decade to 
slow it down to a crawl.

For the rest of us keep your powder dry and head down.  Remember, not
everyone out there has your back.

COVIDiots and the MAGAits that follow

Its all fake news:  

Its only the flu. 
Drumpf is doing a good Job...
He is not an Adderal abuser.

Really!  So my plan is simple keep distance and plan accordingly for the next few month.
Why?    By then their stupidity will have thinned the herd.

The plan is simple you go do the its only the flu thing and hit the bars and all that.  When 
you are sick you may change your mind.  Or you might just die or worse infect someone 
you love.  I suspect that will make you resent everyone that assisted your disbelief and 
denial.

In the mean time for all you covidiots and magats have fun, get sick, and hope like hell
the immunity is not fake news.   So sometime in the fall after you all have had your 
stupid moment.  I'll be around to say, told ya so.

So those not so stupid, keep your powder dry, head down, and all due precautions 
around the idiots.

Red states Blue states

Moscow Mitch suggested we should not help the states suffering from pandemic economic woes.

I have a problem with that.  Seems many have stated "hell, the the Blue states fund the Red via taxes to the fed and distributions based on census.".  Well that might even  be likely true.

However I'll stand on a different aspect.

WE as a union exist not as sovereign states but a republic created for the mutual good and defense.
That means we are united to defend any state against those that may attack it.  It was also an economic pact to insure free trade across borders, common currency for payment, and most of all laws that are generally valid from one state to another.  That pact means we support our fellow states against economic woes as well.

So Idiot Mitch its likely your state is doing as well as it is because millions of Blue Staters paid their taxes and you managed to pork up a bit extra for your self and state.


Keep your head down mask on and powder dry.

Educating Zombies...

Catchy title but the fact is you can't.  They're effectively dead.

So where do we start?

Formal education, critical  thinking subsection.  Seems there is a shortage of that.

For the so called Right... Its real stupid.  Its not a hoax.  Its a disease from a new virus and what we do or not do does not help us understand or protect.  For some not doing doesn't do much save for make its self easier to spread and for other even a smaller percentage it just kills.

That one detail is that if you get it you have likely spread it.  It may kill your kin or more likely granny or papa or your own first born.

So Education time...

Its s fucking disease.  You can get it.  if your the unluckly maybe 2-3% (likely more) you die, sucks to be you.  But hey you wander around like its nothing and it just may be you.

We cannot negotiate with a virus.
So in the end you deny, call it a hoax and lie to yourself and everyone around you.

Some questions

1) Who are you?
How much you accept others' definitions of who and what you are?

2) What do you want?
This is the question addressing one's needs, our wants, our desires. What do
we need, as compared to what we think we need?

3) Why are you here?
Do you believe that your life has a purpose? Do others think your life has a purpose?

4) Where are you going? ...
Are you doing something to edge closer to achieving that purpose or not?

5) Do you have anything worth living for?
This asks you what is important to you that is external to you and your life.

6) Whom do you  trust?
Do they have your best interests at heart? Do they have their own best interests at heart?

7) Whom do you serve?
To whom are you responsible?

Who do you trust,  and why?  Really if you trust DrumpF ,  see #5 maybe you need more self interest and be more protective of family.

Who do you serve, what every party you believe is right are you doing thing that serve their cause or by not doing aid their cause.  Think about that for a while.  There is protest and then stupidity.  For years it was the soap box, the ballot box, and then the cartridge box.  Get them mixed up and you give the wrong side fodder.  In short you not being responsible to your own cause.

I suspect some will see this as too esoteric.  But hey when shooting and killing is a thing there needs to be a good reason.

As usual keep your head down, powder dry, stay safe.

The right to be stupid

So you don't want to distance, wear a mask or, stay home...

No problem, if you happen to test positive for CV-19 you have for all practical purposes put your fist in someones face and the penalty is quarantine.  Really!

I might ad you likely are not the first  Typhoid Mary Mallon was.  If they can and did lock her up so be it for you.  Current guess is you will sit for two weeks, likely tested till clear.

Oh you antivaxer  we have a cure for that, you opt to get the vaccine or exposed assuming that conveys immunity.  Oh yes, the real thing just might make you very very ill.

Also by all means take the cholroquine, hopefully you are one that can tolerate it without loosing eyesight, suffering heart, or kidney damage.  But hey its cheap and unproven to help with Covid-19 virus.  Actually it does sorta, if you get so sick to be on a vent.. your twice as likely to die if you take it.  Oops, yep, wrong cure.

We can of course wait for herd immunity as  that will get us to safer sooner, if there is an immunity.
So what if 1-4% of the people that get it die.  Sucks if its you.  But hey you volunteered to be one less to give it to me. 

Seriously this is not the flu, look at Polio, least its not Ebola, MERS, or SARS, and a few other nice nasty bugs.  We've only won against Polio.

Your a truther and anivaxer or maybe even a believer in chem trails.  Oh, right also 5G is bad so get rid of you phone and routers that can do that, see they also transmit using 5G.  Fools!

If the message isn't clear, this bug is real, people dead is very real,  every excuse and denial can't make it less real.  So stay the hell away and if you open a business and the business is connected in any way, even by guess to a case of CV19.... Your business will likely see sales collapse and your job with it.  So open I dare you.  If all else your belief in you small brain its that this bug is all false and phony go test it with your life and those of your family.  You might be right, or you get to bury the errors.

Go ahead, I think its way to risky.

The world as we knew it, canceled due to FUD.

As DrumpF prattles we run, his spittle is infected with lies.

He has passed hate and confusion, and continued on to what others may recognize, FUD.  For you kids that is Fear, Uncertainty, and Disbelief.

Noisy toddler in chief, keep lying so that truth is unknown, and likely you wish it to be unknowable as anything recognizable.  The big lie works Goebbels may have been on the wrong side but he was the expert at propaganda.  Now we hear it from the wanabe TV star, self appointed, and expert liar in chief.   Your running out of people to fire and compentent people that have sense are avoiding you.

His goal for America, none, its only a source of marks and their money. 

Thankfully a majority of state governors have a basic clue that if nothing gets done it gets bad. They thankfully do not have to wait in the idiot in-diapers.  Despite that  many will die.

Snake Oil, TEOWAKI


Those that subscribe to snake oil and faith cures will die.  The virus does not give
a shit what you believe and if anything likely all your bad habits will revisit you
as a reason to worry about your ability to stand up to it.

Now TEOWAKI... The End  Of World As We Knew It...
The term for what has changed so much that what we knew is not anything
but "before" in our collective memory.

Used to be that would be cause by fictional Zombies, or maybe the real threat of
nuclear weapons.  Some speculated maybe a nasty sunspot like in 1850 (Carrigan
event) or maybe just maybe a super bug.  The latter was the very much feared
Ebola or maybe one of the nasty Staph flavors.

Well dear and fluffy friends, it happened.  Corona virus,  a transmissible bug
presumed from animal sources.  Also common as save for this flavor is very
infectious and plays havoc with the immune system as a way to kill the host.

Used to be we'd go to movies, eat out, and sit in crowds to back our favorite
sports team.  Travel, not so much, you may have the bug.    No more, maybe
a long time from now we will be able to.   So many things that define society
are now taboo as it can pass CV-19.  So many things that made the world
maybe smaller and more likely to consider being a bit more friendly.

Why, unless we gain immunity to this crud we will catch it again, and
maybe this time die.    Ponder that, you get it, again, and again as a nasty
seasonal bug.  You will age and with luck a vaccine may be found, if not
it might get you the next time.

Its not the flu was get immunity to that and we also have flu shots.. Vaccines.
That makes the Flu a bug that mutates recurring but less severe as last years
version is not a factor for those that had it or are vaccinated.  Of course if
you don't subscribe to that you may get it but since most are immune its not
so likely.  Tough as hell if you do, it can really suck, and twenty thousand
die yearly from that.

It, COVID-19  is a not flu bug, new version of the bug!  That brings all the
need to discover how it attacks, sickens and all the other science that we
have applied to Polio, Measels and even the Flu.  Back to square one,
small help is that we are technically advanced.  We know what and how to
hunt it.   But sad to say it still takes time to track it down and get the
weapons needed to wrestle it to a manageable level.
 Those are in the future yet!

So life as we knew it, work, how we feed ourselves all changed in a
few short weeks .  The future is not the past.  We cannot be sure what
there is on the other side of this pandemic.  So we hide from it.  The
counter has cooties save for the this is not imagined, its very real, and
we wash and disinfect the surface to rid them.  A sneeze might be
hayfever or an illness we dare not spread but we may have for several
days before knew it, felt it.  Someone else has it now.

Things we bought are likely less common as someone that made it is
not working, shipping, transporting it.  It would take so little for a
social upset to be come a riot.   Certainly food, water, housing and
medicine are at risk for many.   Hard and harsh just got harder and
harsher, death more likely, maybe more unfair.  An ugly place for
the mind to speculate about without doubt.  Fear and doubt are at
the center of the place we dare not go.

Something to consider just where it may go.  Maybe the great unraveling
or a completely new peace.  One can hope for the latter.

Be careful, stay healthy, and above all keep your powder dry and your
head down.

Whores and republicans

With Citizens United we get the finance committee, one Moscow Mitch and seems with his ability to distributes those funds he has the pike that the Asteriskinchief wishes he had.

So with that we knew the rethugs are indeed whores and without debate we know the price as well.  Not a proud condition for those we consider keepers of our government.

Ponder that Our governments keepers are bought and paid for,  Worse we don't even get a cut of the action.  If anything we pay even more.

Now that doesn't seem right does it?

So since they have been bought, the impeachment is also bought and paid for, always remember that.

       So plan is VOTE THE BASTARDS OUT OF OFFICE.

They have had their cushy jobs way to long with benefits WE wish to have and afford to pay for.

What else is left.


While ducking and running, keep your helmet on, head down, and the power dry.

Asterisk *, the power of...

As a result of a lot of events no matter what from here on the dear and fluffy toddler in chief
can and will stamp his feet, yell, tweet, and claim  fake news.

            But it will not change one thing.

He is now one of the few presidents that has the * next to his name.
The footnote will read:  * Impeached by Act of Congress in December of 2019.

What the republicans can do on their side is either add their own personal asterisk
or grab their personal copy of The Constitution Of the United States and realize the
oath they took and may violate.


As usual keep you powder dry and watch for idiots.  They will be many and noisy.

Age of idiocy

We have devolved to an age where stupidity is rewarded and idiocy is held up as a blessed event.

The tedious detail of the obvious having to be proved over and over again ad infinitum.
We evaluate things for truthiness as all lies are not equal and often only partial.
We listen to lies so grand they prove Gobbels postulates for propaganda.
We suffer willingly and unwillingly the liar in chief.

And based on words from all the self proclaimed  great people of this is a good thing
we are remaking America.

Bullshit!  Lies are still lies and it makes no different if they are convenient or in error.
Hiding the truth or calling it false is just another lie.

Our visible government is being reduced to liars and criminals that shade the truth and 
obfuscate their actions.   For those that believe those lies, I offer that warm feeling 
you have is not me pissing on your leg, its the rain.  

For those that consider what is being done is a christian act, your guilty of the worst sin,
that being inhospitable to others and as likely your own self.  For you would destroy 
your own as proof of your weakness.

In the end no matter what the lies and all that goes with them are at a cost.  If you 
don't believe that, time will not be your friend as it will punish you, as well as those 
you believed should be. 

In the end I feel the rethugs would be taken out behind the woodshed and whipped 
with a Willow switch until they stop whimpering.   Then allowed to contemplate 
their navel.  Those that simply support them by doing nothing should be made 
to watch.  Guilt by inaction has a price as well.

This is not about big gov or small or nanny gov is is the concept of honest and 
verifiable governing.   This we clearly do not have.

To those I think this says it all.   Someone or something should offer mercy on 
your soul for it is already dead and completely without honor.


For the rest keep your powder dry and keep you head down.

Message to dumbshit Scammers


If you send me your gag post of "we know your password" and display one from somewhere
around the first yahoo break in, dumbass its gotten a bit old and very stale. and the password is older and long since gone to the old useless passwords Valhalla.  You are not even creative.

Some of the lines are priceless...  such as we saw you doing the right hand boogaloo by turning
your camera on.  Good trick champ this desktop is super tricked out, no camera, or a microphone either. Did it every occur that the target is not a man?  Dumbass.

We caught you at some pornsite we bugged.  Seriously?  I have no words for that level of stupidity
on your part.  Start with if you bug those buggers for real they will likely hunt your sorry butt.

Then of course,the "We put a pixel in the mail to tell us when you read it" I think you have no idea how web bugs work.   Or how system filters on non-winders systems.  Its just sad man.

I think the best one was the guy that did the deed on his Apple recently, HI!  Oh how do I know?
Seems the Mime encoded shit containing the misspelled text has a system signature.   pwnd!

Anyhow despite that level of stupidity your message was nearly unreadable due to your extremely poor English.  I ignore lazy idiots.

So for our readers all, we have these bumbling fools running scams and think you are as foolish and dumb as they are.  Please do not fall for it.

So to those scammers... Bless your little hearts.  Look that up in the urban dictionary.


As always keep the powder dry and your head down.

Senate heariings, or are they deaf?

Those that respect the law and love sausage should watch neither being made.  M. Twain.

This week we watched sausage and we didn't like the idea.  It was highly irregular and high theatre.

It was not fun watching Graham and friends play the game from the other side.  Oh, what other side the side they too back about 2 years ago when Obama tried to fill a spot...  Games kids play and the shock and awe when of "I didn't do that" while being caught at it.

Well buckos... Karma, that is the cause and effects of life.  When Karma visits it is because you invited it there.

What I didn't see what the Rethugs doing what they didn't do.  If you did the FBI thing it likely would have come back "ok" and the whole thing would be over.  Because you didn't people are paying attention and it better be clean.  But now we drag it on.

I expect but can't endorse the end will be Kavanaugh (rhymes with, had enough) being installed.
I'd say I'd be pleased if he was not, as his position on a number of issues are meat of earlier postings and no secret unless your polarization goes that way.  After all he is the bought and paid for member of the local flavor of the radical fundies. 

So history rhymes, and we wait and weep.


Keep your head down, powder dry, and a full bag of shot.

17 years, 9/11

Another year has passed and the collective memory is that much weaker.  There is now a generation that are of the "we heard of that" generation.  Likely snowflake school has little to say if they say anything at all in terms of history and what it was.

So time, tick, tick, tick.

Stupidity and hurting people

Its a thing some have with Twitter, they crack the knuckles and then inflict hurt and never engage brain.

In the last day or so we have a good example, R. Barr gets in there and does stupid on twitter and I will not repeat or even classify it other than stupidly idiotic and hurtful.  Why so bad? She got cancelled and likely deserved it...  But one second... that means a cast, the crew,  and the network all lost money because of that.  Now who did she hurt?  A lot of hard working people we never see that did the things needed to present a show.

That is an abuse of position.  Soon as you become a face on the tube you have responsibilities to people and bad behavior is not doing that.

So for all the little kiddies out there that do not understand lets break it down.  Do the stupid and be recognized for it and spend time maybe your life trying to live it down.

Oh, one last thing.  Internet is for ever, it has a large and unforgetting memory and someday it may cost you.  No matter how much you might pay to have the net scrubbed, someone with a bone to picjk can go to their local hard drive and start it all over again.  Consider this; put your face on a billboard in your town and put the word Stupid in big easy to read at 80mph letters next to your face. Want to do that?  I think not.


Keep your powder dry and safe.

Not again...

Well the first to appear on the net were the blood dancers.

My feeling is asshat is going to die as he is charged with capital murder, a death penalty in Texas.

The gun didn't make him do it.
Asshat did it.

Even Australia's and London has proved less guns are not a hint of a solution as violence is not a gun its persons/people gone out of control.  Violent people are humans with foul intent and being a tool using species they find tools to implement their horrific desires.

So its not gun crime and more than its knife crime or rock crime.  Its evil f*(king crime!

Heads down here comes shit again.

the week... and the weak.

There are people that cannot behave well in public and should maybe be restrained from speaking or writing.  The Fresno potty mouth is clearly an example.  She doesn't deserved to be named.  If I were the betting sort while they can't fire her it is likely bad karma may find her.

The blood dancing gun grabbers..  I fine officer was killed and his K9 partner wounded by  a catch and release critter being served for yet another crime.  No condemnation from the grabbers.  Bet they use him as one of their statistics.

The school shooter (barely) that sneaks in a shotgun in a case and then takes only one shot at a door and drops it.    Possible attempt at fame and renown?  Didn't even check the  the assholes name.  However that is proof that it has to bleed to lead.

The other group that would have us be MAGA, well then are hurting people in subtle ways and claiming its justified.  They are pure evil and should be careful how they boast of their associations with the sky spirit.

I want my cake, all of it....

The title is inspired from Lawdogs Cake Analogy and the so called reasonable ranting of the gun grabbers then and still.

http://thelawdogfiles.blogspot.com/2010/09/ok-ill-play.html  Go there to see where the cake analogy comes from.  Well worth the read.

Back in 2010 as a both agreement with Lawdog's writings and a response I issued this comment.

When negotiations in bad faith erode a right to the point that supreme judicial rulings start to say too, far too much.   We understand now that the crumbs we were to be satisfied with were an indicator that they went over the proverbial line.

They are still trying to cross that line!

To the kiddies and the misguided parents.  Be reasonable, admit you are without knowledge
and therefore cannot speak about guns or gun laws.  Then I'll stop calling you idiots.  Education for the most part is free and widely available.  Try education, it is a useful application of your time.

Homework for the kids. Stupid parents should read along.

All you students...  Your assignment:

What is the constitutional amendment process?
What are the requirements for such a change?
Cite some prior amendments both successful and unsuccessful?
With that work write a simple but critical review of why some some amendments succeeded and some failed.

In the mean time get rid of your stupid signs.  its not happening.

To the rest regarding stupid gun laws.  No!  Just no. you are confusing fantasy and wishing with reality.  The reality is if you try to infringe on people rights they will become upset and do something. Maybe vote your favorite congress critter or senator out.  Create laws to control you, I'm sure you have done something we can translate into a criminal charge for you.

Your imagining a world without guns, well forget that.   Its only that way when you have removed them all in your tiny mind.   In this case missing a few is not all or even close as you will have to search every criminal and likely their yard and the woods as well.   If the magnitude of that task doesn't bother you then you are an idiot or demented.

One last thing.  If you really want a conversation don't ever shut the other side up or threaten them. You have lost if you do that and proven your ill intent. The gun owners will not be vilified and if you resort to shouting them down they will use the same tools on you to get heard.  Go ahead play the bully, see if it works well for the long term.

Oh, one last thing.  For the love of Pete, stop the lies.

What you want, what you get!

The children at Parkland want safety now!

They played the pawns for the anti-gun lobby.  What did they get, more safety?  Maybe, but more safety procedures for certain.

Nope, nada, not at all.  They got the the adult treatment.  Clear backpacks like the packs people that work in retail world use so they can't hide stuff, going in or coming out.   Badges as well so everyone knows who belongs there.

It never occurred to them that they would surrender privacy for presumed safety.  Nor did they realize with badges they can be watched more closely and identified more easily, if they violate any rules.

Just think, uniforms would make them easier to differentiate from those that don't belong.  Maybe even define the grade they are in.    People that have had conversations with staff over their behaviour might even get a visible marker to insure they are held in check.  Makes the cameras work better too.

There is a strange thing about giving up one thing without realizing the trade can be worse.

After all their overlords are beneficent and only wish them to be safe.  We are led to believe.

If I didn't know better, this could be the start of the dystopian story.  Only just a little of it is fiction right now.

Ghouls and Blood dancers

One of the most interesting part of the latest version of the attack on the constitution is the name calling.  I might point out that the obscenity laced name calling of a particular side, the anti-gun faction.

So we know the sides...

Ghouls, children killers, supposedly the NRA.  FYI hint, its a organization of people, millions of them, maybe even the gal next to you.  Would you call someone that works with you any of those names, your neighbor?  What do you think they should say to you if you did?  I know what I'd say and telling your to shut up would be the nice part.  I'm entitled to feel safe too!

Blood Dancers,  The anti-gun faction.  They deserve that name as every time something terrible happens they are out and asking for more money to create more laws and calling people names if they don't cow tow to them.  Yet they get to call names on TV and insult people that otherwise might agree with stopping the crimes but only differ on how.  Pot meet kettle.

Listen up, if you are going to deliver obscenity laced screeds in public to crowds supposedly filled with young teens what does that make you?   I can offer my mothers bar of soap and the  admonition do you eat with that mouth!  You also risk having adults notice and decide your not the type they want around them.   So a hint; the difference between a riot and a march is small but distinct.  Try hard to not create a riot, as then the blood is not on your hands.

For the idiots holding signs, "We are coming for your guns", "We are going to take your guns".  Seriously?   No, you are not, and not on a bet.  The reason I say that is the collective "we" in your case is always someone else.   That someone else is nowhere as stupid as you.  The law has not changed for property or breaking and entering.  That means if you try your likely committing trespass, breaking and entering, theft, theft over 1000$ and likely criminal assault should you encounter the owner and cause harm.   If you don't understand just write on your crappy sign, "I'm going to take your car", stand by the highway and see how long it takes to get a warning from a cop.   Last I checked taking a car that is not yours is still theft.   So if you decide to enter my property and take something, hint make sure I'm not home, as I'll call the cops and bust your ass to jail.  Now do you understand what stupid is!

So stop telling lies, it makes you all look bad!  You are not going to do what you claim.   Anyone with a functional brain can figure that out.  The rest of us will likely to point and laugh save for that would make us bullies and no better than you.

Remember the laws you'd likely create are easily used against you and if they aren't there are no shortage of existing laws that could be.  My safety comes first, that includes all those in my family and others  around me.  So if you want to call names, well stupid, here's your cop!

Here's your sign!

Well kids its time for a lesson.

First I'll state if you jump to the opinion I'm a hateful bitch.  You are an idiot.

I really don't care what you feel.  You are unsafe because you believed the adults told you your safe.  Ponder that you believed it, and your an idiot.  What have they done to as a commitment to that? Right they put up a sign saying no guns.

You believe that sign works?  Here's an exercise for you.
Go to the nearest stop sign, and see how many cars and trucks come to a full stop, remember its the law to stop at that sign.  Note if its 100%, 90%, or less.  Do you feel stupid for believing a criminal will stop for the no guns sign 100% of the time?

Fact opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.  They mean absolutely nothing.
A definition:
   a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

When you voice an opinion and disregard someone else's that is not discourse its contradiction.  It is also unsupported.  In short you didn't do your homework and just got a Zero for the effort or lack thereof.

If you want to take a stand here is a hint:
I'm seriously older, and had the opportunity to protest Vietnam War.  Like all idiots like you I had an opinion, no facts and didn't care.  People I knew were being drafted and dying.  One slight difference.  After getting my ass handed to me I realized I was being stupid but I was educatable.  I learned what the war was about and why it was corrupt to continue it, also those that went were not to blame, but would suffer none the less.  By then I could vote and did.  Shame the guy that claimed he would stop the war lied and nearly got impeached!

Look around and pay attention.  Your being lied to by more than a few.  How and what you do must be informed with the truth, not some talking points of the side pushing you.  Yes, you have to educate yourself about guns, those mechanical things that are simple but cloaked with language about what they are, how they work, and what the pieces are.   Why?   I'm not trying to make a gunny out of you but if your going to write laws don't look like an idiot.   If you buy into the fully semi-automatic assault rifle using multi-clip magazines and believe it, then you are an idiot, there is no such thing!  Its a few incorrectly used inflammatory words strung together.   The AR in AR-15 is Armalite Rifle number 15, from the company that designed it.  The Army does not use it, never did.   The use the derivative M-16, which is a both capable of semi and full automatic operation  rifle.  All that is simple descriptive words and easy to fact check.  You might try that.  Lookup what a Assault rifle is and how a real one might be purchased.

All the other hype is about esthetics.  Things and their looks.  Often the look of the rifle has very little to do with its power or accuracy.  Much of that is cosmetics.  To that and its been done if you have the average hunting rifle its deemed OK, after all wood and all.   Put a black plastic stock on it and its a Assault rifle.  Really?  Its the same thing save for plastic is easier keep from rotting and cracking.   The words for that is improved durability.   But you are being told that black rifles are bad.   You are both stupid and being programmed.

About laws:
While your at it learn what the existing laws are, there are no shortage.   After all if your going to change them least don't repeat prior stupidity.   If you are making suggestions note a few things.  Murder is universally illegal, planning it is too, and obtaining the material to execute the plan is as well, if you do that your a criminal.   But hell, criminals stop for signs, right?  Remember every law you propose is a restriction on those that follow laws, including yourself.

Learn history all of it. besides being interesting how good intents failed (check prohibition) it also can show how defective laws hurt good people.

I figure not many made it to this line as their opinion got in the way making them an idiot.  The stupid can be educated out, idiots are the examples why education is important.

A forcast I will hope is wrong...

Several things may come from recent events.

You The Collective everyone are being lied to.  Its the big lie and the full force of propaganda being used to make it happen.  Its almost reached the point where truth is meaningless as its feeds the big lie.

The CDC will study guns.  That means they are not studying some other disease a child may die from.  Did the prohibition removal give them more money, no.  Will people believe their results, likely no, being there are those that don't believe in vaccinations being safe nor effective.  They are a government arm and regardless of the answer it will be viewed as a politicalized to favor the wrong answer.  The benefit is there is no cure they can suggest but, some more money might help.

I expect that help for the mentally ill will be enhanced.  I've sure some of the dark buildings people remember still exist.  You know the rather dark and equipped with locked doors and bars outside.  There will be many more.  They will be houses to coup up those deemed and not adjudged as unsafe.

We may even have places for those adjudged worrisome and not in accordance with with acceptable society.   Some truly great writing came out of the gulags and a lot of suffering.  But it will be safer for those no longer exposed to those radical ideas.

I'm sure there will be laws, but I seriously doubt they will make schools safer.  I suspect they will be more hazardous for the students as anything gun related will get them in trouble with the bigger bully.   The children will be taught guns bad.  Likely a lot of other things will be introduced as beneficial to the list of bad things to never be said in school.  Hey parents... if your kid mentions something and gets in trouble for it you may well be too.  Other past eras called it indoctrination.

Crime rates will not improve.  It will still be driven by the increasing economic divide between the have and barely have.

I believe they will not only violate the 2nd amendment, they will soften the First.  We can't have complaints and all.  The 4th and 5th are also in the way.   After all the ends justify the means.

Minorities, they will not benefit. I expect that they will suffer disproportionately and more significantly.

All the problems will remain and just one more law limiting what can be considered an effective defense will be had.  We could end up where self defense is not assumed but must be proven in court every time.

Some of this will seem hyperbolic, maybe.   What if I might be right.


I believe I will be here to say;  I told you so.    When I do it will be with the greatest of regret.

Hide your stuff they really do plan to take it.

Children, useful idiots, and follow the money

Lenin called those that didn't care or know enough to care, useful idiots.

Children seem to have a lot to say these days.  By children I mean people who are too young to, vote, drink and most can't even drive without a keeper.  They have feelings but not much in the way of education or critical thinking skills.  In short they are not adults.  The again many adults are still children by behaviour and not age.

The Pnews (pwnd news as the facts part is missing but the profit part is solid) has all the coverage of the school walkout.  You  kids, do you know your being played!   Who payed for your trip if not YOU?   Who made it ok for you to walk out of classes without permission or penalty?     You wouldn't be at risk if some stupid adult decided that making your school a defenseless gun/weapon free zone.  After all is fishing in a barrel is a good and fair thing for the fish.

Given that criminals do not obey the law.   There many things criminals  can possibly employ to put YOU at risk for injury or death.  I ask the following test.  Its open book.

This is a 100 point multipart question, show your work and offer proof and references.

    IF YOU are in a place where you can't defend yourself who is responsible for defending you?
    
    Who would those people responsible people be?
    IF they are not nearby, how long must you survive until they assist?
    
    IF the person(s) responsible for your safety is prohibited from having any weapons,
    can they successfully defend YOU?

      Trick question, if they do not have the means to defend you is it fair they should die trying?

      Trick question two, is it fair they{teachers, administrators, staff, custodian}
       should not have protection?
    
    If the people that are supposed to keep YOU safe insist that they lock you in a room defenseless
    what is YOUR protection?

    IF a criminal enters with intent of doing harm, what is your solution for preventing that?

    How would YOU stop that person, prevention? 
    Presuming that didn't work, stop the perp during the event?

Failure to answer this question gets a 0{zero, failing} grade.

     Self defense is a right.   Should anyone in the building be allowed to defend themselves?

     If so why? 

     If not why no to self defense?   YOU get to be asked, are you suicidal?    

         If yes please report to the local mental health center, do not handle
         anything dangerous, drive, vote or drink.  You are unsafe without 
         someone to watch over you.


Keep your powder safe.

The gunz, the feelz

Listening to the various stations today...

There are those that have no clue what laws exist and propose the same one.   There are those saying we must do something.... mostly nonspecific.

Then there are those reading from the gungrabbers playbook, Gun Violence Messaging Guide.  I happen to have a copy so I know the lines well and the recommended context to use them in.

My favorite is:

The gun lovers value their guns more than children.  Well that is absurd to the ridiculous.  It never considers those that have guns to defend their children or family member.

I'd put it on them:
By creating protected areas where self defense is reduced to a sharpened pencil they are murderous by their inaction to create a actual safe zone.  If its easy to get in with a rifle with the intent to harm then the result will be a horrific disaster as you have created a protected area for the person bent of harm.  You have mandated a "gun free" zone and those in it are unprotected and devoid of any means of self defense.  You created it, its on you!  The difference is we can prove that this happens.

So here it is the anti-gun blood dancer creed:
*Alarming facts open the door to action. Powerful stories put feeling and emotional energy behind those facts.

*Emotionally-engaging images are vitally important... never stop showing the blood and screaming!

They claim to talk of facts but if they talk about background checks they use the fact that many states don't do it... forgetting the FACT that its a federal background check called NICS.  Never lie however don't say too much either.  Shade the truth.

They claim anyone can buy a gun, likely most have never seen a federal 4473 form that requires truthful statements or its federal rap and backed up by NICS.  Again hide the truth.

The best is "there's gotta be a better law"....  all 41,000 of them that exist obviously do not cover their feelings there must be a better law.

Lie and say we have weak gun laws, ignore those that do exist, take advantage of ignorance of the law.  Lest we forget criminals ignore laws. 

Their claim is 30,000 people die from guns, likely true at some level save for most are criminals
shot in the act by police and private people defending themselves and those around them.  But as horrific as that is  lets look at Cars.  When checked that number falls to 13286 were in fact killed by firearms. How many people die from drunk drivers every year?  Over 10,000!  How about auto crashes, its more than 37000 a year. We could easily save over 30,000 lives a year if we ban cars and trucks.  However is we take the drunk drivers and mandate the highest impacted age group wait till 21 to drive we may cut that sharply.  Remember driving is a privilege not a right.

Anywho I hope the picture is clear the gun violence people want to ban stuff they have at best a minimal understanding of and without any proof that it  will have the desired effect.

This is propaganda they ar pushing.   Propaganda works by tapping into emotions through images, slogans and a selective use of information, or control and censorship of the facts.  They speak to confuse, conflate, create division, and obscure facts while appealing to
less than critical thinking by emphasizing feelings, your fears.

If that is not clear read Jason Stanly's book How Propaganda Works.


Remember keep your powder and arms secure lest the redcoats march on you to take it away.

September 11, 2001

Sixteen, that's the years since.

We have loosed das-gov and its running wild.

We morn the dead.  We will be morning the living, as it is with insanity.

Not much else to add Never Forget.


Keep the powder dry, a sharp eye, and your head low.

Eck!
