It was funny watching Gayle King tell us a story about “CEO Pay” and how it was incredibly high compared to the pay of the workers.
She makes, at last report 11 Million Dollars a year….for about 30 hours a week actual work time.

While there are many ways, a GREAT way to help that process is to resist arrest. And, of course, fail to follow the rules of society in general…
Say, if you were to be driving a car with expired registration….and get pulled over….and then, when they run your name they find out that you have an outstanding warrant…..and then you resist arrest (the last is the key here).
Yep, that’s the latest shooting in Minnesota…..Dude was driving a car with expired plates, had a warrant because he HADN’T BOTHERED to show up and talk with his Parole officer for two scheduled visits…….and then decided to get froggy with the cop who was gonna take him to jail. (She, apparently, pulled the pistol rather than the tazer, with very bad results).
So Mr Wright’s brother told the media that he had “Just begun to Turn His Life Around”….sounds like it. Sure. Maybe…if you squint…..
Apparently Turning your Life Around is nearly as dangerous, although for different reasons, as Stannin’ on De Cornah Mindin’ my Own Bidness….
Had he paid his registration and not ignored it, he’d likely not have been pulled over. Had he shown up at his Parole Officer meetings and not blown them off, he’d not have had a warrant. Had he not resisted but instead cooperated, he’d likely not have been shot.
But to point that out (the Media certainly won’t) is, of course, Racist…..because expecting a black man to follow the rules is, of course, also racist. Few of thse incidents are the first time a person has interacted with police….
But the media and the BLM activists can only focus on the fact that Black Man was shot by a cop. Not why, or how, or what led up to it. Race doesn’t matter, until (apparently) it can be used to rile up black people. If the media would lead with something else, like how he was complicit in his own demise….
Nah, expecting black men to actually follow the rules and behave is expecting too much, I guess.
ETA: Quote from the “News” this morning:
“You should not get shot because you have expired tags on your car”… (nice misdirection)
Nope, but you get shot when you resist arrest…..
I mean, we get the news of “another school shooting“, this one in Knoxville.
Funny how we never heard much on the national media about those shootings that apparently happened when there was no Gun Control legislation being pushed, but now that the push to Do Something about Gun Violence is happening, all these shooting pop up in the media.. (They may well have been happening, we just never heard much about them….) funny how that works….
OF course, this level of violence isn’t even a rainy Wednesday night in Chicago (for comparison)….
And, oddly, we have no early information about the shooter. Genereally they can’t tell us quickly enough how it was a white man with an “assault weapon”…. Makes me wonder…
It would appear that Hunter Biden’s laptop is, in fact, his laptop.
And the data on it, emails, messages, documents, etc….are also real.
Which means that the stuff that the Media and Joe Biden himself dimissed was true!! Biden (joe) lied about his involvement with Hunter’s contacts in China and Ukraine….And the fact that Hunter shared his “fees” for influence with Joe…..And this means Joe used his VP status for personal gain.
We all knew (or at least suspected) this, but this means that the denials before the election were lies.
Now, if the Media would just tell the truth,,,,
One might ask, where did the money come from?
Further, on might ask why, if she believes what she preaches, did she not spend that money helping Black Lives in need?…..If they really mattered.
I would think that 1.4 Million dollars could help a lot of poor people. (and think about this: If the cash came from compensation from BLM, then the taxes mean that she got paid more than 2 million dollars for the 1.4 to have been left over after those taxes….lots of scratch, innit? ) How much is BLM paying her?
Realize also that this is her FOURTH house in non black neighborhoods.
Not to mention that she isn’t picking homes in a majority Black neighborhood…not poor ones….her new home is in a location where the population is less than 2% black and fairly affluent. One might have thought that she’d spend some of that money to purchase a home in a majority black neighborhood, hire a bunch of people, and do something to help the neighborhood improve…..
But, apparently, like most black leaders, she’s just fleecing her followers. I guess there is really good money to be made on racial unrest.
I guess she doesn’t want to live in a black neighborhood amongst the high crime and drugs and violence either….

Almost all of Bidens’s clamed reasons for his “Executive Orders” regarding firearms could be fixed if we, as a society, would deal with the underlying issues:
If he wants to stop black men from killing themselves with firearms (and a lot of other implements) then firstly admit that that segment of the society is a problem (young black males) and stop treating those criminals with kid gloves. Jail time. enforcement. No more low/no bail, etc. enforce drug laws and close down the sales on the streets. But admit that they are the problem. Admit that Black Males (or a subset of that demographic) are violent and kill each other often…..largely as a part of doing business in the drug trade. That they are a large percentage of the issue, not the white guy in the suburbs.
Stop “mainstreaming” mentally unhealthy people back onto the streets, stop depending on pharmecuticals to keep them them in a mental state where they will be able to somewhat function. Place them in homes where they can be sheltered and taken care of, and where they will not be a danger to others.
Enforce existing gun laws. No really, we have a lot, many of which were Knee-Jerk reactions to previous shooting, that are unenforced, ignored, or otherwise made useless.
Background checks only work when there is a database of good information to work with. So fix that database. Then use it. Enforce the rules.
And, most of all, if you want support to fix the “Gun Violence” problem: Stop lying.

I mean, If I say that I will not hire women, or gay people, or black people…..wouldn’t that be illegal?
How about if I turn that around? United Airlines says it will adjust hiring practices until 50% of their trainees are women and minorities in the next decade….
Why isn’t this sort of thing illegal?
Or is it ok to discriminate against whites and men?
Present his new “Gun Control” plan is like watching a 6th grade child do a presentation on something he doesn’t understand, isn’t sure of, and hasn’t practiced enough to be comfortable with presenting.
Plus there is the failure to even be cognizant of his errors…”AFT” rather than “ATF”, , “Come to the Lord” rather than “Come to Jesus” etc. The more he speaks the more it is obvious that his cognitive abilites are at a really low level, and declining rapidly.
We won’t even bother to discuss the outright falsehhoods in his statements, nor the obvious Constitutional issues with his poposals.
Letting Joe continue to speak in public is sad….It come close ot the level of “Elder Abuse”.
While I am sure it was applauded by the liberals, this was a very sad performance.
So around here, the Cicil Defense sirens are tested monthly….on the first Tuesday of the month, at 11:00 AM.
Were I an evil genius bent on World Domination, or a foregn Superpower, I’d pick 11:00AM on the first Tuesday of the month as the time for an attack….no one would pay any attention.
But as my supply of Nuclear Tipped Missiles is low due to the current and ongoing ammo shortage, I’ll have to come up with another plan…..
