Three Steps To Applied Solutions

Another Muslim attack.  I dunno. It seems to me that effective and applied solutions are being overlooked - or deliberately ignored -  concerning this ongoing and ever present Muslim problem.  It's worldwide and growing.  Because of a seditious United States government and overtly politically correct European governments, the wanton slaughter of innocents by radical Islamofacists continues unabated.  They had a good day yesterday.  Over eighty people were mowed down by a box truck in Nice, France.  Oh, yeah, killed by a radical Muslim.  One guy.  Eighty dead.  In military terms it was not a bad use of expendable personnel.

Spokesmen from both CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood immediately went on world television to denounce the use of jihad to murder helpless and defenseless innocent people in an effort further Islam's goals.  Right.  Of course they didn't.  They actually celebrated the carnage. 

Solutions, anyone?  Over coffee this morning I asked the wifey, who is a trial attorney by the way, what would be her solution to this nonsense.  We debated several possible solutions, some radical, some ineffectual, and a few so meaningless as to be worthless.  How about walls?  Her, nope.  Me, hell yes.  Walls won't be effective, she says, as we're not dealing with barbarians at the gate.  Au contraire.  Walls work, says I, and are being constructed now in Israel and Hungary specifically to stop the invading Muslim hordes.  And centuries ago the Romans built them, as did the Chinese.  And those walls are still there.

Well, what about screening?  Dear God!  You mean profiling?  Yes, I do.  Stop all Muslims from entering the country.  All of them.  On this we agree.  Profiling is a logical, practical and effective way to identify and stop one's enemy.  Only political correctness can erode its effectiveness.  And we've all agreed that political correctness is censorship, and in and of itself is a major obstacle to the truth.   

Enforce the law.  Now there's a novel approach.  We agreed we could simply enforce existing immigration laws, which require a specified process for entering the Untied States.  Those laws are, and have been, on the books for years, but have been "vacated" by this traitorous administration.  Border agents and ICE agents have been told directly by the White House to stand down and allow any and all to cross the southern border unimpeded.  So we get all kinds of nice folks coming into the country, most carrying disease, some carrying weapons, some carrying drugs.  And the best and the brightest flowing into the US are generally uneducated -  illiterate even in their own language - and without marketable skills.  And many in poor health. And this border issue is separate and apart from the Kenyan's willful importation and resettlement of Muslim third world savages into respectable communities across the nation.  The solution is to simply stop the lawlessness conducted by this administration, and enforce the laws already in place.

But now comes the real meat of solving this problem.  The goal is to win and end this 1,400 year long war with Islam.  There are three recognizable steps to putting an end to this war.  

... Obama calls a lie: We are at war with Islam | Communities Digital NewsFirst, recognize and identify the enemy.  The enemy is Islam, and its adherents from countries in the Middle East, North Africa and elsewhere have declared war on us.  Completely stop any more incoming Muslim or other  invaders by closing the border,  Enforce that closing  with Border Patrol and ICE agents.  Stop issuing any and all visas.  

Second, profile those already here to determine if they are simply a Chinese medical student, or a Syrian Muslim studying "air traffic safety." Believe in sharia law?   You're deported immediately and without further reservation.  Newt is right.  Vet everyone, one at a time.  Limit their mobility.  They are not yet American citizens, so this can be done without violating any constitutional protections.  Enforce the existing immigration laws and deport those who don't comply, and those who obviously seek to do us harm.  

And thirdly, do what the US government will not do.  The Constitutions requires the people to wrest control away from a tyrannical and unresponsive oppressive federal government, so this is our civic duty.  Form community militias to screen for and identify the enemy.  In every city, town and village in this country.  Fight this psychological war with like kind psychology: terror with terror.  Let them know we are after them, and will kill them with impunity.  They love to tell us who they are though Facebook, Twitter and other social media.  Easy.  Identify terror cells, radical mosques, belligerent mullahs who incite jihad.  And arrest them.  Detain them.  And if they resist, kill them.

A point lost on many Americans is that this is a real war.  To the enemy, it's deadly serious.  Many Americans, on the other hand, don't realize this is a fight for their very survival, and they tend to get squishy and wobbly when they read things like the paragraph above.  But make no mistake, this is a world war, and the enforcement of the fascist tenets of Islam and sharia law on all peoples and all nations is the enemy's goal.  

And that, dear readers, is something Americans will resist with extreme prejudice.

Odd Bits

hillaryliememeThe most intriguing thing about FBI Director Comey's rationale for not prosecuting HRC for her handling of classified information while Secretary of State is the clever way he did it.  In an unprecedented move, he held a global press conference in which he recites an exhaustive list of Hillary’s actions, leaving no doubt she is guilty of gross negligence in her handling of classified materials. But he recommends no prosecution, because the Bureau found no evidence she intended to do harm.  Clearly Comey knows that intent is not the legal issue; gross negligence is sufficient for prosecution, conviction, and sentencing.  He knows he'll be called before Congress and will be raked over the coals, and in the process he will reveal more clearly how Hillary had violated the law. Comey would continue to assert there was no need for prosecution, while at the same time demonstrating that the facts were sufficient for prosecution, and  that prosecution was exactly the proper path. And that’s what happened during Comey’s questioning by Trey Gowdy.  Comey revealed unquestionably that HRC lied.  Again and again and again.  But Comey, who was assigned the task to take the fall for the government team, was brilliant in his approach.  He did just that, but let America and the world know that HRC is as guilty as sin.  Politics at work - in spades.  To paraphrase a famous line by Al Pacino's character Tony Montana in the movie Scarface:  He told the truth, even when he lied.  Brilliant.
Everyone understands that the conversation over gun control is hotly debated.  But here are some interesting statistics that you'll never see in the MSM.  First, let's stipulate that there are some 30,000 gun related deaths annually in the US by firearms.  What is never shown, though, is a breakdown of those deaths.

65% of those deaths are by suicide, which would never be prevented by gun laws
15% are by law enforcement in the line of duty and mostly justified
17% are through criminal activity, gang and drug related or mentally ill persons
3% are accidental discharge deaths

So technically, "gun violence" does not cause 30,000 deaths annually, but only 5,100 (or 17% of 30,000).  Now where do these deaths predominantly occur?

480 homicides (9.4%) were in Chicago
344 homicides (6.7%) were in Baltimore
333 homicides (6.5%) were in Detroit
119 homicides (2.3%) were in Washington DC (a 54% increase over prior years)

So basically, 25% of all gun death happens in just four cities, all of which have draconian gun laws.  That puts to bed the notion that it's a lack of gun control laws causing these deaths.  This basically leaves 3,825 deaths for the entire rest of the nation, or about 75 per state. That is an average because some states have much higher rates than others.  For example, California had 1,169 gun related deaths, and Alabama had 1.  One might make a correlation between those cities listed above and designated sanctuary cities, and conclude that a high percentage of criminal element residing in those cities drives gun related crime more so than does just the fact of guns being present. 

So how does the 30,000 total gun related death figures compare to other deaths?

40,000 die from a drug overdose
36,000 people die per year from the flu
34,000 people die per year in traffic fatalities
200,000 people die each year from medical malpractice.
710,000 people die per year from heart disease   

But you won't see that in the media.

Technological Slippery Slope

AT-ST Walker Biography Gallery
Will AT-ST Walker Be Next Weapon?
OK, we now have a new paradigm in crime fighting.  The Dallas Police Department created a technological precedent last Thursday by neutralizing the threat of an active shooter by using a robot.  The robot carried roughly a pound of C4 explosives to within a lethal range of the shooter, one Micah X. Johnson, and well, blew him up.  Good job Dallas.  Scratch one bad guy with no further good guy losses.

But wait.  Is this precedent a good thing?  Is using non-human methods to kill humans opening a  Pandora's Box that can never be closed back up?  Scenes of science fiction movies like The Terminator spring to mind as mindless, preprogramed weaponized robots aimlessly kill humans wantonly.  That image should give thinking folks a good deal of pause.  How long will it be before those robots cast off human control and go rogue?

F6B: The Industry’s Most Versatile Platform
The Dallas Bomb Carrying Robot
The vehicle that killed Johnson in Dallas is actually a remote controlled tracked vehicle, not what most folks consider a robotic with some degree of artificial intelligence.  Built by Northrup Grumman, the Andros F6B is a military grade, heavy duty remote controlled robotic vehicle.  And while this is the first time it - or any robotic vehicle - has been used in a civilian application, they're used in combat scenarios from time to time.  The appeal of use is that a machine can deliver lethality to an enemy without potential loss of life of friendlies.  I get it.

But some ethicists are worried.  “My initial reaction was that we have just got onto the slippery slope,” said Heather Roff, a senior research fellow at Oxford and a research scientist at Arizona State University’s Global Security Initiative. “This is going to be very hard to put back and that the militarization of police capabilities means that they may now feel that it is reasonable to use robotics in this way to ensure compliance.  If one doesn’t have to talk to a subject and can demand compliance, then this may mean more forceful or coercive demands are made.”

Yep, that's exactly what concerns me:  Demand compliance with impunity.  Think of armored robots rolling - or walking -  through the streets, armed with lasers or other advanced weaponry.  That's certainly a good way to control the populace, and now that we have a popular acceptance of using robots to kill civilians, as bad and radical as they may be, I think we're on a technological slippery slope.  Very steep and slippery.

I'm all for law and order, no doubt. But I also respect the constraints put on police.  And I think the current fad of militarizing the police isn't necessarily a good idea.   That said, I realize that certain people in this country are radicalized into an anti-American fervor and they're no longer content with peaceful protests.  And I think the Regressive left has fanned these anti-American flames to incite these kinds of attacks, and they're solely responsible for the divisive racist rhetoric.  The Kenyan and his administration has demonstrated this undeniably.

So instead of militarizing the police, lets add more cops on the beat with fewer bureaucrats to politicize them.  And let's counter the Regressive left's propaganda by teaching self respect and self reliance, not victimization, for all citizens.  

And if this is done, we won't need to dance on such a slippery technological slope.

The Kenyan's Legacy: Chaos

It just gets better and better.  

AP: State Department Reopens Clinton Emails Probe
Can't Touch ME!
Yesterday Democrats lionized their presumptive leader, and are thrilled she won't face FBI charges for her treason as Secretary of State.  They didn't even place her under oath, so that the charge of perjury couldn't be made.  The fix is in.  The fate of the country doesn't matter to Democrats, as long as they can continue to maintain their stranglehold on political power, selling influence, and getting their thirty pieces of silver as well, even while in the minority.  Or maybe, they're fine folks at heart, but just don't want to wind up dead as some five dozen others who have gotten sideways with the Clintons have found themselves.  Including, perhaps, our mulatto Dear Leader, who found it expedient to fly HRC to her North Carolina campaign stop aboard Air Force One. Now that takes a heaping helping of chutzpah, my friends.

Today we Americans wake up to the news that cops have been killed and critically wounded in a massacred in Dallas.  As of this writing, 6 dead, 12 wounded.  By snipers.  This attack was orchestrated, planned and executed with paramilitary precision.  And timed to a "peaceful" Black Lives Matter Protest.  Our Dear Leader takes a few seconds from his NATO speech in Poland to condemn . . .  guns.   So far, Dallas police have not yet identified the shooters, but I'll go out on a limb here:  They will be shown to be black extremists:  Black Panthers or other Muslim jihadists with an allegiance to ISIS.  The Kenyan will lay blame on Trump, guns, cops and white America in general. 

Meanwhile, we learn that censorship is alive and well in social media.  Facebook, notorious for assuming it has become the world's sole arbiter of fairness, morality and justice, is blocking stories from Breitbart News. Amazon's Fire browser, Silk, also blocks Breitbart from inclusion in viewers' "Most Viewed" page.  Silk tried that with the Drudge Report as well, but finally relented.  Reddit censors all Muslim rape and crime news stories.  And American media simply won't report the overwhelming disaster forced Muslim migration has been, both here and abroad.  In Germany, you will be arrested for criticizing the Muslim invasion - on Facebook.   To witness the truth about the global Muslim invasion fiasco for yourself, only one site carries it all: Bare Naked Islam.

Of Course He's A Muslim
From whence does this chaos come?  There's an answer to that.  It comes from the deliberate actions of this President.  The suppression of freedoms.  The enactment of censorship.  The total corruption of government.  The aiding and abetting of Muslim jihad, both foreign and domestic.  The incitement and fueling of racial tensions.  The undermining of law and order.  The forced denial of Christian morality.  And there's no one who will stop him as he goes about destroying America.  The intimidation is complete: because he hides behind his race - half of it, anyway - people are afraid to be called racist, or a Islamophobe or a homophobe if they criticize him.  And with good reason.  Because given the in-your-face corruption exhibited by both the Clintons and this regime, any criticism could lead to one's untimely and uninvestigated demise.

Yep, in the final days and weeks of this corrupt and ungodly administration, the chaos just gets better and better.

Corruption Is A Scorpion

Image result for frog and scorpion parable meaning
It's Just The Nature Of The Beast
There's an old parable that goes like this:  A frog and a scorpion are on a river bank, each seeking to get to the other side.  The scorpion begs the frog to carry him on his back across, but the frog declines, telling the scorpion that he fears the scorpion would sting him to death once across.  The scorpion assures the frog that no such thing would happen, that if he did that, he would die too.  Further,  he'd be grateful  and indebted to the frog for carrying him across the river.  Finally the frog is persuaded to carry the scorpion across.  Once on the other bank, however, the scorpion stings the frog fatally and jumps off onto dry land.  The frog, betrayed and dismayed, asks the scorpion in his dying breath why he would so blatantly lie to him and fatally sting him after assuring him he would not do so.  The scorpion shrugged and told the frog, "You knew I'm a scorpion.  It is my nature.  What else did you expect?"

So it is with corruption.  We know it when we see it, yet it assures us we'll all be fine.  And every time, we buy into that lie.  And every time, corruption immediately taints, and then destroys, whatever it touches.  The Chinese have an epithet, "May you live in interesting times."  On its face it sounds like a wish for good fortune.  But in reality it's a wish for toil and trouble.  A curse.  Interesting times, indeed.  

That's what we have today in a perfect storm of political corruption.  It's a meeting of two seemingly unstoppable corrupt influences:  One from Arkansas, the other from Chicago.  This corruption is embodied by two perfect psychopaths, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barry Soetoro, a.k.a Barrack Hussein Obama.  Because they are clinically psychopathic, their evil is unhidden, it's on full public display.  How is it these two reprobates came onto the public scene?   The answer is they've always been there, groomed and guided by puppet masters whose hands are unseen.  But now that they're in power, we have to deal with their destructive perversions, and it seems nothing can be done to rid us of these perfect manifestations of corruption and evil.  So who will rid us of this corrupt beast?

Not the Congress of the United States; which has been blackmailed, extorted, coerced, arm twisted and bribed into submission to the corrupt god of plutocratic globalism. 

Not the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court; a once honorable man who tramped on justice to rewrite a clearly unconstitutional, and illegal, forced dictate from our Dear Leader.

Not the Attorney General, the nation's top cop; who personally met with a private citizen and subsequently found no inclination to prosecute nefarious Hillary's high crimes and treason.

Not the FBI; who, like the Chief Justice, rewrote current criminal law to facilitate and excuse the wrongdoings of the Secretary of State.

Not the United States military; whose patriotic top generals have been "retired" in favor of bureaucratic sycophants to the corrupt administration.

Not the watch dog media; which has replaced its apolitical reporting with biased "journalists" who are ideologically in league with the powerful and corrupt.

Not the alternative media; the so called conservative patriot pajama media who recognize the threat, and blog to the high heavens, and whose voices are censored and silenced by the Scorpion.

Not the voters; half of whom were blinded by the promises being made, by the utopia that was guaranteed, and who lacked the sophistication to see through the lies being told.

And not the people themselves; who have been harassed and oppressed into submission by the manipulated and imposed economic depression, and who are compelled to meekly go along with the Scorpion just to keep their families fed and sheltered.

So why are we surprised when the FBI can't find evidence to convict HRC of treason in selling US influence as Secretary of State?  Why are we surprised that private citizen Bill Clinton met with Attorney General Loretta Lynch to "work things out" with Hillary?  And why are we surprised that no charges are brought as the Kenyan, working together with HRC's active direction, result from the Benghazi murders of four United States citizens? And why are we surprised that jihadist Muslims by the tens of thousands are being imported into the US, and then trained and abetted rather than deported with extreme prejudice?

The answer is simple, and painfully obvious.  We live in interesting times, and we knew corruption was a Scorpion all along.  But we voted it in anyway.  

This is just its nature.  What else did we expect?

The Crime of Dissent

Image result for american dissentThe fourth is over, and the cardboard canisters of expended fireworks still bear evidence of celebration in the streets of many neighborhoods.  Today, however, we return to the disheartening task of reviewing the news of the day, and the realization that our freedoms - those that we celebrated just yesterday - are being eroded, erased and forgotten.

In Georgia a newspaper publisher and his attorney are charged and jailed for the crime of requesting public information through the Open Records Act.  He was investigating the use of public monies to pay the judge's legal bills. Normal stuff, right?  Not anymore.  The judge had them arrested, jailed, and the long list of ridiculous conditions of their bail was nothing more than  punitive.  You may recall that the press's job is to act as the public's watchdog over government policies and activities.  Sadly, in recent years, the press, actually the media in general, is nothing more than the propaganda arm of the Democrat Party.  They protect their own, while attempting to destroy any opposition.  Ten years ago, this would have been thought the tactics of Soviet Russia or Nazi SS.  But in the Kenyan's divisive America, officials don't fear public reprisal anymore - they simply do what they can get away with.

Hello Racist, a new website, has been set up seeking to shame online "racists" through public internet exposure. It is designed to “expose racism, fight ignorance and be the place where people of all races, religion, and political beliefs can share their stories.”  Right.  But only if you're a tolerant, enlightened, left wing snowflake.  Guess what, cupcake?  The Constitution doesn't protect your delicate sensitivities from offense.  You have no right not to be offended.  The Constitution does, however, protect others' right to their own views, beliefs, speech and religion.  Oh yeah, and hate.  Some folks hate other folks for a myriad of reasons.  Get over it, it's human nature.  I'm a white, Southern conservative, and you hate me, right?  So who's the racist?  But now anyone is subject to internet humiliation by virtue of someone else anonymously posting their views on a hate site.  It's a classic example of political correctness embedded in the very nature of the popular mindset.  Well, that's what libel and slander laws are for.  The founder said they wished to remain anonymous due to credible threats of violence and the threatening legal action.  No kidding.  So knock yourself out, little snowflake.

And what about censorship by media giants that control free speech?  If they arbitrarily shut down sites or "pages" with which they disagree, is that not censorship?  Of course it is.  If you espouse a view or activity that's in contravention with the left wing media apparatchiks that force government group think on users, that's dissent by definition.  A case in point is a gun range in Texas that offers free concealed handgun classes for the homosexual-and-sexual-identity-confused community, responding to concerns of homosexuals about Muslims following the Orlando Islamic terrorist attack.  That should have been welcomed with open arms by Facebook and lovers of all things homosexual, right?  Not so much.  You see, it's got to do with guns!  We can't advocate self reliance and self defense.  That's too American.  So Facebook took down both Shiloh Shooting's pages, and as of yet has not restored either account. 

The irony here is that the day after Independence Day, we get stories like these shaming dissent.  Yet what was Independence Day?  It was the day the colonies declared independence from Britain, essentially the United States' birthday.  Yet, sadly, those in the newly formed federal government either learned nothing from, or had forgotten, King George's heavy hand, and 73 years later a new revolution had to be fought.  And today, 156 years after that last revolution, we find ourselves in yet another revolution:  the return of a tyrannical, bloated, over bearing federal government to the citizens who own it.  The Kenyan's administration has apparently learned little from the last two American revolutions, and they forget at their peril.

Dissent is as American as apple pie.  It's who we are, it's what we do.  And that's the way it should be.

Why We Celebrate Independence Day

Image result for militiamen and america independence day
Ever Vigilant,Ever Ready
Today is the Fourth of July, Independence Day, the day the 13 American colonies declared independence from Britain.  Most folks know this is a national holiday, but many don't know what or why we celebrate.  There was a time in this country when learning about the Revolutionary War and independence from Britain was required.  Today, sadly, it's not.  In fact, most of the top colleges don't require any more than three or four credit hours of American history for history majors.  And a recent poll shows that many people on the street haven't any idea of what we're celebrating on this day.  "It's about burgers and beer and fireworks, man."  Right.  So because the man on the street is ignorant of his birthright of freedom, it's easy for a tyrannical government to flourish. 

So to help folks understand the events leading up to the Declaration of Independence in 1776, and thereafter to the adaptation of the American Constitution in 1787, that magnificent document that recognizes and guarantees freedom for all men from government oppression, I've provided a timeline of events below.  Thanks to the British Library for this concise and informative timeline.

1760s

1763
10 February
Signing of the Treaty of Paris
Ending the Seven Year’s War, also known as the French and Indian War in North America.  France ceded all mainland North American territories, except New Orleans, in order to retain her Caribbean sugar islands.

1763
7 October
Proclamation of 1763
Wary of the cost of defending the colonies, George III prohibited all settlement west of the Appalachian mountains without guarantees of security from local Native American nations. The intervention in colonial affairs offended the thirteen colonies' claim to the exclusive right to govern lands to their west.
1764
5 April
Sugar Act
The first attempt to finance the defense of the colonies by the British Government. In order to deter smuggling and to encourage the production of British rum, taxes on molasses were dropped; a levy was placed on foreign Madeira wine and colonial exports of iron, lumber and other goods had to pass first through Britain and British customs. The Act established a Vice-Admiralty Court in Halifax, Nova Scotia to hear smuggling cases without jury and with the presumption of guilt. These measures led to widespread protest.
1765
22 March
Stamp Act
Seeking to defray some of the costs of garrisoning the colonies, Parliament required all legal documents, newspapers and pamphlets required to use watermarked, or 'stamped' paper on which a levy was placed.

1767
29 June
Townshend Revenue Act (Townshend Duties)
Duties on tea, glass, lead, paper and paint to help pay for the administration of the colonies, named after Charles Townshend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer. John Dickinson publishes Letter from a Philadelphian Farmer in protest. Colonial assemblies condemn taxation without representation.
1768
1 October
British troops arrive in Boston in response to political unrest.

1770s

1770
5 March

Angered by the presence of troops and Britain's colonial policy, a crowd began harassing a group of soldiers guarding the customs house; a soldier was knocked down by a snowball and discharged his musket, sparking a volley into the crowd which kills five civilians.
1770
12 April
Repeal of the Townshend Revenue Act
1772
10 June
Burning of the Gaspee
The revenue schooner Gaspee ran aground near Providence, Rhode Island and was burnt by locals angered by the enforcement of trade legislation.
1773
July
Publication of Thomas Hutchinson letters
In these letters, Hutchinson, the Massachusetts governor, advocated a 'great restraint of natural liberty', convincing many colonists of a planned British clamp-down on their freedoms.
1773
10 May
Tea Act
In an effort to support the ailing East India Company, Parliament exempted its tea from import duties and allowed the Company to sell its tea directly to the colonies. Americans resented what they saw as an indirect tax subsidizing a British company.

1787
25 May
Constitutional Convention
1787
Adoption of the American Constitution


Astute readers will recognize many similarities in the events above with current events taking place today. Most notable are the oppressive tactics of tyrannical governments concerning confiscatory taxes, unreasonable invasion of privacy, and dictatorial and arbitrary repressive edicts.

It gives one pause:  perhaps events from 2008 through 2016 and beyond are the lead in to another declaration of independence.  Perhaps.  We'll know by January.  Maybe we'll have the fortitude to do what our forebears did at considerable cost:  Take our country and our freedom back.

A Visual Message?

Obama oval office finger point (Pete Souza / White House)
Look closely at this photograph.  It makes a statement, one that should give Americans pause.  It's obvious some of us weren't wrong about the Kenyan's true mission.  Think about it:  in his final months in office, the Kenyan releases this particular posed photo.  Why?  Let's analyze the body language displayed here.

First, note the finger gun pointed at the desk.  Remember that this is the historic Resolute Desk,  It was made from the timbers of HMS Resolute, an abandoned British ship discovered by an American vessel and returned to the Queen of England as a token of friendship and goodwill. When the ship was retired, Queen Victoria commissioned the desk to be built and presented it to President Rutherford Hayes in 1880.  It represents the solidarity of the democratic West in the US and UK, and has been used by presidents since then.  The gun pointed at the desk is clear imagery: "I will kill the Caucasian democratic West."

Second, notice his unnatural pose.  No one rests a foot at a waist high level, it's unnatural and uncomfortable.  But placing a shoe on a person, or on the desk, is the ultimate insult in Muslim and other Mid Eastern cultures.  It's vile and foul to them.  To be shown the bottom one's shore, or to have a shoe placed upon a body is the ultimate in disrespect and disgrace.  But given Our Dear Leader's leanings, it's a clear visual statement of something like: "The US is a pig in filth."

Third, he's apparently speaking on the phone.  Coupled with the first two statements, it's obvious that he's telling someone what's he's thinking and doing.  So, he's telegraphing his insult and disrespect for the US to the entire world in this photograph.

What about some of the other props in this photo?  

Consider the meaning of the photo directly behind him.  It looks photoshoped to me.  I've never seen a framed photo of just the extending arm of the Statue of Liberty, so it has to have meaning.  America holding the eternal flame and truth of Islam, perhaps?  Or maybe it's just a diss to enframe just a portion of this American icon.  Whatever, it seems to be disrespectful on it's face.

You'll notice three unusual objects on the desk: a conical object that looks like a stone talisman of some kind, a small engraved possibly wooden brown box, and a triangular object that may be a clock.  These are unidentifiable, and most likely have meaning to him, but whose meaning is yet to be deciphered .

QuiĆ©n sabe.  I may be way off base, but there is something too odd about this obviously posed and structured photograph.  What do you think?

It's Not The Gun, Son

Conressional Dems: Enemy of the People
According to the New York Times today, Republicans are about to go wobbly on the gun control issue.  Again.  There's a sea change in the public's attitude about guns after the Muslim attack in Orlando, they say.  People want more government control over the availability of "assault weapons", they say.  The public wants the government to "do more" to stop these types of mass killings, they say.  

Really?

The NYT and democrats in congress push this same tired old line every time there's a mass killing.  It's just propaganda - you know, repeat a lie often and loud enough, and people will eventually believe it.  Guess what?  It works.  So that becomes the narrative.  On and on and on.  Guns bad.  There's no such thing as personal defense.  We don't need assault rifles.

But wait.  It's not working this time.  Americans know the scam, and are wise to it.  The enemy is not guns, it's Islam. (And perhaps Democrats in Congress, as well.)  But the Muslim in Chief, with his inter circle made up of Muslim Brotherhood agents and other Muslim fellow travelers, lets not the word pass his lips, so ideological is he. Yet Americans know who the enemy really is.  Intuitively.  That's why, according to FBI background check statistics, under his dictatorial administration, the Kenyan has caused an average - average - of nearly 52,000 rifles and handguns sold per day.  Per day.  That figure verifies that Americans know that being armed is the only effective way to ensure one's safety.  Deterrence works on an individual level, as well as it does at a national policy level.  

Furthermore, Americans know that when seconds count, the cops are  just minutes away.

Yet instead of attacking the attackers - Islam - this administration attacks the victims, made even more defenseless by insane, unconstitutional gun control laws or gun registration schemes.  Yet in other countries, where a citizen's right to arm himself is non-existent, Muslims kill people at random with impunity.  That's the nature of terror, after all.  Yesterday in Turkey, hardly a bastion of gun rights, in a Muslim attack on Istanbul Airport, another slaughter kills dozens, wounds hundreds. As in Paris and in Brussels and in London and in San Bernadino and in Ft. Hood.  Defenseless folks get killed by violent savage Islamic cultists.  Still don't think the enemy is Islam?  They kill innocent people, and Muslims celebrate.

It's Islam, the insane death cult, that's causing all this carnage. But it's not the gun, son.

An Ill Wind Doth Blow

Image result for an ill windCan you feel that?  That certain something in the wind, an ill wind, a vibe if you will, of something evil this way comes.  It's a trending theme, and it's popping up all over; the icy grip of immanent totalitarianism.  Let's see some examples of the creeping seriously scary Orwellian oppression:

In Idaho, discussing Muslim crime is a crime.  Wendy J. Olson, the U.S. attorney for Idaho, issued a statement Friday that Idahoans who spread “false or inflammatory information” about a Muslim gang rape of a special needs 5 year old girl may be subject to prosecution.  Sorry, but that kind of speech is, and always has been resoundingly, protected by the First Amendment.  Further, the whole act was videoed by another Muslim man.  There's not much to be left for interpretation, it's pretty straightforward:  they gang raped her.  But as this US attorney is a Kenyan appointee, we know she does her Muslim master's bidding, protecting Muslims, without regard for the Constitution.  And what does the Kenyan do?  He sends even more diseased Muslims to Idaho.  Spiteful and narcissistic, as usual.

Speaking of the Constitution, Judge Richard A. Posner, a Republican Jew who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1981 and serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit in Chicago, has published an op-ed at Slate declaring that studying the U.S. Constitution for judges is a waste of time. So the magnificent, timeless ideas of a few dead 18th century white guys have no standing in a modern, technological world, right, Judge?  That's what our Dear Leader believes as well, as he dictates from the Oval Office.  Peachy.  There must be something in the water in Chicago.  Or possibly the corruption there is so prevalent that the air is thick with the malodorous putrescence of the body politic.  That's my bet.
And speaking of death, have you noticed how the far left and its propaganda appendage, the media, views death?  It's perfectly all right to kill babies in the womb, even if the "doctor" or the "clinic" have no minimum safety oversight, leaving the abortion industry to continue to reign unchecked as mothers are subjected to subpar conditions.  Yep, that's what the idiot left wing Jews and their followers on the Supreme Court - Ginsburg, Breyer, and Kagan, along with Kennedy and Sotomajor -  ruled yesterday.  Kagan recused herself, but was of the majority opinion, so the media touts the ruling as 5 to 3.  Whatever.  But while the White House giggles with glee over this ruling, it pushes ever harder on eradicating the Second Amendment.  Americans feel this wind of oppression, and ever vigilant, are arming themselves at the highest rate in history.  Many of these are homosexuals arming themselves for the first time.  FBI statistics indicate that some 52,000 guns are bought every day under the Kenyan's reign.  Muslim terrorism is the catalyst for this re-arming of America, and as the Kenyan seems to hate life in the womb, he seems to also hate American lives as he aids and abets the Muslim slaughter of American innocents.  And that's why he's pushing for total gun registration to brand gun owners as domestic terrorists and criminals, as Hawaii just did.

Bloggers were quick to point out the curiosity of U.N. trucks being transported on U.S. highways.More sightings of fully up armored tactical combat/SWAT trucks in United Nation livery have been spotted on Virginia and Texas interstate highways.  I am reluctant to engage in full-on conspiracy theory, but sightings of UN materiel and troops occurred in Texas in 2014, and the infamous Jade Helm military drills are fresh in mind.  A rather unsettling coincidence.  Also, back in October 2015, VP Biden and AG Lynch called for an international force to "combat domestic terror" within the US.  Or it could be, that since these vehicles are built by BAE in York, PA, they're simply transporting them to ports for shipping abroad.  But don't bet the farm on it.

In a nod to his sexually confused supporters, and as another poke in the eye to moral Americans everywhere, Our Dear Leader issues yet another unlawful edict.  Circumventing Congress yet again, the Kenyan now bans single sex restrooms in all US National Parks.  The fallout on this will be intense, but it clearly illustrates that this man's narcissism knows no bounds.  One wonders if this psychopath will willingly leave office in January, so drunk with power is he.

Sniffing that ill wind, let's review:  discussing Muslim crime is a crime; the US Constitution is "dead", replaced by a "living document" reflective only of the ideology of un-elected judges; the death industry is alive and well; the government continues to disarm and criminalize gun owning Americans; the government seeks foreign intervention to stem and eliminate "domestic terror" of and by Americans; foreign military equipment and materiel are seen within our shores; and the Kenyan takes it solely upon himself to rid us moral Americans of the right to privacy in our most intimate moments.

So.  What could possibly go wrong?

Begin Again Renewed

Renewed.  I've just returned from my vacation, that annual respite from the insanity of modern life, and I feel rejuvenated and alive.  Up in the mountainous high country, you see, one is breathing rarefied air of a high oxygen content due to all those magnificent trees pumping out O2.  They don't call it a mountain high for naught, my friends.  Alas now, a return to the stressful and mundane task of keeping alive in the politically correct world of the Kenyan's America.  So what have y'all been doing for the last week or so?  Let's see . . .

Image result for uk secedesThe big news, of course, is the beginning of the end of the globalization of sovereign nations.  Leading the way, the United Kingdom has made its decision to secede from the European Union, and that sentiment seems prevalent elsewhere as well.  Several other nations have voiced similar misgivings about the EU.  The driving issue, of course, is the forced invasion of uneducated, unwashed and radical Muslims into these countries, against the will of those who live there.  Using the demeaning term "populist", the elites smear those who seek to preserve their national heritage and culture in the face of the dehumanizing homogeny and androgyny of the globalist utopia.  The utopians always seem to disregard basic human nature in their ill conceived schemes, and populism is a form of push back.  Humans naturally identify in various ways; as part of family, tribe, race, nationality and religion, and to deny that individual identity is folly. But the utopians want us all homogenized into a shade of grey, absent definable sex, nationality, race, culture or political persuasion.  Orwell recognized this evil and warned of its implementation seven decades ago, yet even today the elites wish to remake we humans into homogenized androgynous robotic beings.  And we're not.  Not yet.   On this side of the pond, saving sovereignty is the message that DJT has espoused, and the response from Americans is loud and undeniable.  The elites have wet themselves, and are in full scale propaganda mode, slandering everyone in sight, as they see their best laid plans become unraveled.  But January is a long way off, and anything can happen.  The Kenyan has a pen and a phone, you'll recall.

Image result for clinton crime foundationThe house of cards known as the Clinton Crime Foundation is slowly but surely tumbling down.  And that's a good thing.  Finally.  Ridding the nation of a real-world Ernst Starvo Blofeld is long overdue.  Hillary's crimes eclipse those of any other American traitors and spies, as she and Bill have structured a global enterprise whereby one can buy American secrets, technology, energy and influence.  But unlike Blofeld, James Bond's nemesis, Hillary is a real arch-villain, presenting a real and present danger to America.  Her banishment from power - hopefully through life imprisonment or execution as befits traitors - should put an end to the extortion, intimidation and blackmail of so many folks, known and unknown, who know of her and Bill's criminal ventures and influence peddling going all the way back to Arkansas.  For just Benghazi alone, Hillary should be forced to account.  Karma, the cosmic justice, is universal; Hillary's fall will come, and for her lies and deceit, her disgrace will be ever so sweet.

Image result for gays for gunsSpeaking of odd couples, the courtship of the sexually confused lobby with the gun lobby is truly a wonder to behold.  Imagine:  Lezzies with Uzis, Cucks with Glocks, Fags with high-cap mags.  With the slaughter of 49 homosexuals in Orlando by another crazed Muslim two weeks ago, the kiss-kiss, hug-hug crowd now realize that Islam is an existential threat to them specifically, and they and all other Americans are arming themselves to the teeth.  So much so that when wifey and I treated ourselves to a couple of new personal protection carry weapons that following week, the FBI background check took over two hours for each of us, as opposed to the normal fifteen minutes.  In fact, at the gun store we were in, we had to take a number to be helped.  In just one gun store, in a metro area comprising over a million people, they sold at least fifty guns, both long guns and handguns, in the two hours we were there.  That's just one gun store.  But that's good.  Let every man, woman and child be armed against Islamic threats - or any threat.  So to my fellow citizens, straight or otherwise, I say welcome aboard.  Shoot often, and shoot true.

That's not all the news that's noteworthy, either.  But I need another cuppa before I head out into the world to protect my financial interests.  Renewed, and fully armed.

Orlando: When Government Propaganda Fails

Image result for patriotic american militiamenRight on cue, the talking points whispered from behind the curtain on stage left have hit the lap-dog compliant main stream media.  While the likes of the rabidly left St. Petersburg Times continue with their sappy worship of all things homosexual, which includes the unfortunate dead from Sunday's massacre, the rest of the media obeys its master and blames the savagery on everything and anything other than Islam.  

Let's study this incident and see what - or who - really is to blame.  

At the first news of the shooting, Caucasian Christian bigotry was blamed.  Oops.  The shooter is in fact of Middle Eastern descent and a Muslim, who is lionized in Islamic media.  Interestingly, and perhaps telling, is that the Muslim population if Orlando and environs has increased 10-fold in the last ten years.

Then lone wolf private citizens were blamed.  Oops.  The shooter was a security operative, trained in weaponry and employed by a contractor for the Department of Homeland Security.  He was a radical Muslim working for the very organization that is supposed to keep us safe.  Oops, again.  There's much more information that will come out in coming days and weeks that may attest to a larger threat than believed.   Thank God for the inalienable right to keep and bear arms, and thanks to the Bill of Rights that guarantees same.

Then homophobia was blamed.  Oops.  The shooter is now learned to be a closet homosexual.  The Pulse Club was a homosexual mecca, the shooter was a patron, and we presume that many, if not all, victims were homosexual.  They evidently eat their own.

Then racism was blamed.  Oops.  It's been known that the shooter was influenced - coached - by an Imam in Orlando, who is Negro, and witnesses to the shooting have said that the shooter asked each victim if he were black.  If answered affirmatively, the target lived, if not, was summarily shot.   

Then Trump was blamed.  Oops.  He's blamed because of his sensible and logical statements about, among other things, the incompatibility of Islam with democracy, hence the lunacy of importing them into the US. But Trump didn't incite this shooter.  A Negro Imam in Orlando and several as yet unidentified contacts in Saudi Arabia influenced and activated this sleeper shooter.

And now we come to the heart of the matter.  As always, given a perfectly good crisis, the rabid left invariably blames guns.  Oops.  A gun is an inanimate object made of composite and steel, with no volition of its own.  As shown above, this shooter had a lot of reasons to do what he did, and his preferred choice of  tools for the job is almost irrelevant.  In point, another crazed rabid Muslim killed a Paris police officer Monday.  But he used a knife.  Shall we ban them, as well?  But no good crisis can go to waste, so everybody from Jeh Johnson to Bill O'Reilly and Gretchen Carlson want to ban AR-15s.  Okay, why not call for the ban of Glocks, as well?  No problem, the left assures us, we'll get to that.  The UN, Hillary, Rolling Stone, and other totalitarian voices are screaming for "something to be done," which translates into the ban of guns.  

The recap of this story is that when faced with a government sponsored and mandated threat - Islam - Americans must roll over and take it, and not resist.  And the government seeks to remove Americans' method of resistance, which on its face rather alarming, given our history of rugged individualism and self reliance.  But this is the new age of The Kenyan, where in everyone's back yard there's a rainbow, and behind that rainbow is a beautiful unicorn, just waiting to come into your home and fill it with love.  

Ignored by the Kenyan and his psychopathic fantasies is the fact that what's coming into our homes is not a unicorn at all, but a foreign fanatical existential threat that cannot be mitigated, only eradicated.  And for that we need to be heavily armed, not disarmed.

Good luck in disarming Americans, all you fascists.  Molon Labe.  Look it up.

A Matter Of Survival

The smoke has barely cleared, and the blood of 50 dead people not yet mopped up, as the lying liberal media, CBS New York specifically, declares the slaughter Sunday morning in a nightclub in Orlando to be domestic terrorism.  Notwithstanding the fact that the terrorist, one Omar Mir Seddique Mateen, is said by the FBI to have sympathies for radical Islam, and was born of Afghani parents, the mere fact that he held US citizenship and lived in St. Lucie county is all that's needed to hide the obvious fact he was a Muslim terrorist, and perpetrate the lie that he's just a home-grown terrorist.  That's a thin criterion, indeed.

To further complicate the disingenuous of the US media, it's known that an ISIS group, declared its intent to initiate a terror strike in Florida just three days ago.  From that report,

" . . . A pro-Isis group has released a hit list with the names of more than 8,000 people mostly Americans.  More than 600-people live in Florida, and one security expert believes that many of those targeted live in Palm Beach County and on the Treasure Coast. The “United Cyber Caliphate” that hacked U.S. Central Command, 54,000 Twitter accounts and threatened President Barack Obama is the same pro-Isis group that’s reportedly created a “kill list” with the names, addresses and emails of thousands of civilian Americans. Reports of the list came to light online when Vocativ reported the list was shared via the encrypted app, Telegram, and called on supporters to kill.  Former FBI agent-turned lawyer Stuart Kaplan says the threat is especially alarming, because the people on this list are civilians who don’t have the security necessary to protect themselves. “It’s going to create some hysteria,” he said…"
In Washington DC, the blame game will be delayed briefly so that the Muslims in the highest offices in the land can take a few minutes to celebrate the slaughter of infidels by the imported jihadists that have been illegally smuggled into the country, and relocated into my fair state of Florida as well:

" . . As one ISIS supporter pointed out, the Florida shooting follows ISIS spokesman Abu Muhammad al-Adnani’s most recent speech, in which al-Adnani called upon “soldiers and supporters of the Caliphate in Europe and America” to attack civilians, “spread the terror,” and “open the door of Jihad” in their homes during the holy Muslim month of Ramadan. Another ISIS sympathizer shared images and videos from Orlando and wrote, “there is nothing I love more than the blood of infidels. This is the month of victories and blessings. . . .”
So there it is.  The radical Muslims tell us outright that they're coming to kill us, and the US media tries to tell us the killings are merely lone wolf domestic types.  And it's more gun control that's really needed.  There's no need to fear the religion of peace.  But it's a lie, a damnable lie, and Americans know it intuitively.  We are being killed, and will continue to be killed, as long as sympathies for radical Islam reside in the White House.

And as the terrorists themselves tell us, there will be more killings.  Many more.  It's time we stand up to and kill these savages, wherever and whenever they're found.  After all, it's a matter of survival.
