Of the decision as to whether the United States remains the free country that it’s founders envisioned when they wrote the wonderful document we call “the Constitution”.

Today, the Supreme Court of this land begins the process to determine whether you,and I and our children, and their children who live beyond that shall be free, protected by the Constitution, or shall be slaves to the State. Today the courts begin to hear arguments regarding the abomination we call “ObamaCare”

Today begins the determination as to whether this country does more than just pay lip service to the document which made this country the shining beacon to all those people in the world who wanted a chance to be free….To have self determination…to have a chance to make something for themselves, without the crushing load put upon their shoulders by the ever oppressive State..to those who struggled to make it to our shores, just to have a chance to touch the dream of freedom. Today, marks the beginning of the decision as to what this country shall be.

I do not envy those justices on the Supreme Court Bench. They must, with deliberation, in a few words, write a decision which can fundamentally change the character of this country…and decide whether our country shall continue to exist. To decide whether we will be free men, or slaves of the State. Decide whether this country shall continue to provide hope for the rest of the world, or become a failed State, tossed onto  the trashheap of history….like those of Europe, or the USSR,  like Argentina and others. Failures in their economic policy, and failures to their citizens

Today marks the beginning….either the beginning of the end of our country….or the beginning of a new hope, that this country can recover from the depredations of the Statists, or that we shall follow the other failed states into decline. The decision made in these next few day, or weeks, moths even, will determine the fate of our country and its citizens…and decide the future for millions who live here and the millions more who dare to dream to do so some day.

I fear for today, yet I have hope. We can only hope. Hope for our country, and hope for our fellow citizens….and the future citizens of our country.

to the Treyvon/Zimmerman thing…

The more you can smell the stink.

I am beginning to think that, while the original tragedy was just that, a tragedy….that the rest of the outrage was designed to rally the black segment of our citizens around any black leader….and especially Mr. Obama.

He really needs their vote to get re-elected, what with all the steps being taken to limit or eliminate voter fraud….and the fact that even a third of the African-American voters (who rallied so strongly to him in 2008) are likely to vote for someone else, or at least not vote….

Stranger thingz have happened in politics.

HT Pissed

And if he dressed and looked like this, I’d think he was a hood too. And until I knew differently, I’d treat him like a lowlife hood as well.(and the above picture is what he looks like TODAY, not the 4 year old picture that is floating around in the news media)

While again, we don’t know what happened, and while I refuse to assume that either party is innocent or guilty until we know more, I’d have looked at Treyvon as a threat to the peace, safety and wellbeing of my neighborhood too, especially, since he was a visitor to the neighborhood.

No doubt, his appearance was a factor in this incident

Thing is, we really don’t know what happened in Sanford FLA.You weren’t there, neither was I….Neither were any of those people in the mobs chanting for “justice”

We do know a guy named Zimmerman was a neighborhood watch volunteer.

We know he saw a kid he perceived was out of place, and who (apparently) dressed and acted like a “hood”. We know that he called 911 to report a suspicious person. We know that he was following the kid.

We know that the press picked this up because they thought Zimmerman was white (he is more Hispanic), and we know that Treyvon Martin is black. We know that race is a factor in people’s perception of this incident.

We know that there was a scuffle, and Treyvon ended up dead of a gunshot wound.

We know that there had been a lot of break-ins, and that some residents, even black residents, of the community, had blamed the break-ins on black youths.This is conveniently left out of the narrative. As are nearly all the crime statistics when race is involved.

We know that the family of Treyvon Marin is devastated. We know that even though he was apparently dressed like a hood, his family (as is usual) thinks he was a great kid, just this side of sainthood…. We know that the press shows him as a baby faced kid…..and neglects to tell us that he was 6’2″ tall and was bigger than Mr. Zimmerman.

I know that if I were a kid doing nothing wrong, and some guy started following me, I’d likely have run if that were possible. I know that Zimmerman likely could have prevented this by not following the kid, and that the pursuit likely led to the encounter which led to the death of Treyvon Martin. I also know that things are generally not as they first appear.

The thing is, none of us know any useful facts. We know that the police investigated, and decided that there was enough evidence AT THAT TIME to accept Mr. Zimmerman’s account of self defense.

What we don’t know is anything else, really, of any use in making any determination of guilt or innocence….or somewhere in between.

But I do know this…..The calls for mob action and summary judgement are much more prevalent when it is a black teen killed by a white man or a white cop. And it is generally a mob composed largely of black people. And that they have decided without any facts that they know what is going on. They have decided that Treyvon is innocent, and was murdered, and that Mr. Zimmerman is guilty of that murder. Maybe they are right. WE DON”T KNOW.

There is seldom a call by mobs of white people when a white man or kid is killed by a black man or a black cop. Were that the case, we’d have them daily. Is there something special that makes their wants and feelings ok to have mobs? Perhaps that makes me a racist in some eyes. But I don’t think it is….I just want the same metric for all of us.

What if the Klan had held a rally in support of the killing (for whatever reason) of the late Treyvon Marin? Would that be any better than the black mob  calls for “justice”?  What if the Klan had put up “Wanted dead or alive” posters the last time some black guy shot a white person? Would that, somehow, have been MORE wrong than what is happening right now?

And I cannot recall a mob composed of black people crying for blood when a black man or kid is killed by another black man. Nor do I remember seeing a mob call for summary justice when a white man is killed by a black man or black teen.

But the fact remains….We really don’t know what happened.  And this rush to summary justice, this race baited insistent demand for immediate “justice”is wrong.

But the thing is…WE JUST DON’T know. And we should let the system, and the investigators work, and do their job, and wait for the facts come out before we lynch a possibly innocent man. And I really wish our “Post Racial” president would just shut the hell up until he knew what was going on.

Were this a black man and a white kid, would the mobs of black folks support a lynching? Because that is what they want for this hispanic guy (with a White sounding name) who killed the black “kid”.

What if the positions were reversed…Would they (the black mobs and their leaders) still demand summary judgement?

Via Pissed we have this…which shows that generally there are are no white mobs who do so when the positions are reversed. Strange, that.

What Stormbringer shows about charites…and salaries.

I knew it was like this, but I did not realize it was that bad.

Think before you donate next time.

So I had to go in and get my new drivers license the other day.

Now, if you haven’t had to get a new “Secure I.D.” then when you renew your license, you are in for a bit of a shock….You have to provide much more documentation than you did before. Apparently, the State wants to make sure you are who you say you are, in order to make the whole drivers license as ID scheme better….

I had not traveled outside of the US for several years, so I had, foolishly let my US passport expire. As this is one of the documents that will satisfy the State that you are who you say you are, it was one stumbling block. for me…As I did not have (or at least could not find) a certified copy of my birth certificate either…

Thing is, there is no proof required to obtain a copy of a birth certificate…I did the whole thing online, and a few days later, at a cost of $34, I had a certified copy of a birth certificate in my name….

Same thing with the other documents. While they did not require that I prove my citizenship (why, I don’t know, as it would seem to be a part of the ID security…..mapbe because I don’t look hispanic?), I did have to provide “proof of residency”….which was a couple of bills in my name and with my address (They kept asking for a water bill, and I kept explaining that I had a well and didn’t have a municipal water hook up, but they didn’t seem to understand). I ended up using a gas company bill and an electric company bill. It did take a supervisor to approve these, since I couldn’t produce a “water bill”. Strangely, they refused to allow an Indiana CHL, even though it is on the list. (and at least that document means that someone has checked out my fingerprints!)

The third thing you need is a social security card. (again, I couldn’t find mine, so I had to go to the local Social Security Adminostration office to get one…What do you need to get a copy of your Social Security card? Nothing. Just fill out a form…DOB, Name, and SSN. I did have to also show my W-2.

The point of all this is that despite the big hoopla there is no more proof that I am who I say I am than there was with the old drivers license. I could literally be anyone. All it would take is about a months work to get documents in anyones name who has a birth certificate and a Social Security number.

But they get to charge mnore, and they get to make you jump through a whole lot more hoops, for no apparent gain.

I am tempted to collect a series of documents and change some bills around in order to get a “secure I.D” in someone else’s name, just to prove it can be done….If I have the time.

Oh, and I hope that the employees of the Indiana BMV are better quality than the TSA, as they have enough information (and copies of all relevant documents) to do some serious Identity theft should they want to.

If you need to renew, and your state does “Secure I.D.” then start early.

Especially if you want to have several ID’s to vote early and often.  Not like it would be hard or anything.

 Bypassing Congress….Sending money we don’t have (and yeah, it is our money) to folks who hate us, and would do their best to remove us from this plane of existence. Its not like he’s buying their friendship or cooperation either.

I never really believed the claims that he was a muslim, but things like this make me wonder…..

I wonder how much of that $1.5 B will be used to buy weapons….or used to persecute the Copts and other christians in Egypt?

The thing is, our legislators apparently don’t have the balls to stop him.

Says we got issues with COOLING.

Jesus. I don’t know what to think.

You should read this.

’cause it shows the hypocrisy. And the agenda.

Ans you’ll not see this in the Mainstream Media either.

And he’s gonna be listening to every word you say on a telephone, and looking at every email…and every text…and listening in on every Skype call, and it is all gonna be recorded for further review if you come to the attention of the authorities.


Eric Arthur Blair was a prophet. He was just 29 years ahead of his time.


So, if you are doing anything bad, or that the state might disapprove of, better do it with face to face meeting……or in a prearranged one time pad code *.

‘Cause soon, he’ll be watching even more closely….and he’ll have more ears.


Me? I figure I’m already on the “watch” list. I act accordingly.

But I’d be careful what pictures you send via email and text messages. Who knows what kind of people will be viewing them?

I’m not so sure that this is constitutional, but it is happening. And the press, and Congress is letting them get away with it. 

Act accordingly. And think about what your country is becoming. 

*Note: I am not suggesting that you do (or are doing) anything illegal…..But if you don’t want the State knowing….
