An excellent choice they made

Seems that the Kenosha City council chose to reject the claim from Jacob Blake for damages. 

Unanimously.

Jacob Blake had many chances to make the end of his arrest, in fact, the entire day, end differently.

He didn’t have to start shit at the gathering such that the police were called…

He didn’t have to have a warrant that he had not dealt with.

He didn’t have to be uncooperative with the police when they found out he had a warrant.

He didn’t have to resist arrest.

He didn’t have to continue to resist after he was tazed.

He didn’t have to walk towrds the car promising to shoot people.

He could have stopped the encounter at any point.

He chose to continue and be stubborn and foolish.

He chose the path that led to the bad outcome.

He is owed no compensation. He made the choices…over and over.

Of course, he will sue, and might get some money, even though he should not.

But Kudos to the Kenosha council for sayng “No”.

 

 

‘Tis odd

Suddenly, the Chicago TV stations are telling us the race of the perpetrators of crimes, at least the most horrendous ones.

And they naren’t hiding the race of the other criminals for lesser crimes

Before they were doing their best to hide/mask/obfuscate the race of the criminals…Now not so much.

 

Almost as if they WANT people to know that about 85% of the crime is peretrated by black people,  nearly 100% on the South and West sides of Chicago.

 

Maybe they are thinking to add this to a Race War?…..First rile up the Blacks, Hide what everyone already knew…then push the crime factor to piss off and rile up the whites/Hispanics and Asians….

well,,,,,

It looks like I bought a 340.

Now we gotta do the inspections and I gotta get the type specific training mandated by the insurance company.

 

So about three weeks

Coal powered cars

It is pointed out in this article that, among other issues with Electric Vehicles, they are, mostly, coal powered vehicles….and that they aren’t as “Green” as people think…

 

The mining of Lithium (for batteries) can be inexpensive or it can be environmentally friendly, but not both. Copper, also, can be “green” or it can be inexpensive…but it can’t be both.

Ultimately, Electric vehicles aren’t as green as they are made out to be….they just cause pollution somewhere else….out of sight.

 

Might be the most “Woke” place in the US right now…

And a perfect example of what is wrong with the Woke folks”

The town of Evanston, Illinois, is holding Pride and Juneteenth parades during the month of June, but canceling July 4 fireworks and Independence Day festivities.

 

Nothing wrong with celebrating alternative holidays, but not at the cost of patriotism and pride of country. Especially when it is all virtue signaling.

Good foundations:

It is said that a father is the foundation upon which his children build their morality and judgement for their adulthood.

For a son, it is the base upon which he builds his foundation for manhood.

 

I had a good base upon which to build.

Happy Fathers day, Dad.
