So there’s this complaint about how “23 People Explain How Tariffs Have Suddenly Ruined Their Hobby”

Of course, you gotta pay a fee to read more than the first few paragraphs…..

The Irony apparently escaped the publisher.

But hey, socialists

I REALLY expected someone on the Left to do something stupid and pointless at the Kirk Memorial service, and also expected someone on the Right to overreact to it.

I am pleasantly surprised by both sides.

For someone trying to do something really bad and stupid at the Memorial Service for Mr. Kirk….Demonstrate their commitment to Political Violence?

There are enough idiots on both sides that the possibility is there for some real dumbassery, either in protest or in counterprotest.

I fully expect the Leftists to do their best to show their manners and demonstrate their level of class and be disrespectful at a Memorial service for someone with whom they have never seen nor listened to,, and whom they really knew nothing about except what they were told to believe….Just to be hateful.

And I expect that there will be enough others on the other side who will not be smart enough to ignore the Left and will cause a ruckus.

Plus there is real potential for someone to Make A Statement by trying to do something Really Significant and harm a bunch of people on the Right .

We shall see.

about the veiled threats to shut down media if they go too far in their cheering the death of Mr. Kirk and otherwise show their true colors…

And on the one hand, they would be right….simply because our federal government doesn’t get to decide what is “Hateful Speech”  or acceptable speech.

Having said that, we have to remember that Barry the O went after a Rodeo Clown because he dared wear blackface that resembled him…and they went after others for similar things. They used the DOJ to hassle people whose ideology they found in disfavor, and did their best to cancel even Leftists like Roseanne Barr when she made fun of Valerie Jarrett….

So this is nothing new,,,, They would hope that you might forget their behavior, but we won’t.

But it was wrong for the Obama Administration to do it, and it is wrong for this one to threaten to do it.

But the left has no moral ground to stand on, high or low. They failed to be upstanding when it counted, they set the tone, and they now are reaping the whirlwind.

Apparently she is not only useless in a Law Enforcement role and in pursuing kiddie diddlers, but also in persecuting Donnie’s political enemies…which was apparently the last straw.

The folks on the left would have had those of us who refused the Covid Jab, an unproven and untested “vaccination”, lose our jobs…..

But when they lose their jobs for celebrating the assassination of a political figure,….

Well, that’s different…

Strange, the thought processes  and moral values of a Liberal Child, innit?

about those who get fired or otherwise censured for their remarks approving the killing of Charlie Kirk…

“but what about Free Speech?”

Hey, fools, no one has been arrested for that speech, but Freedom of Speech is not Freedom from Consequences of that speech.

It is sad that these otherwise seemingly intelligent folks think that the Constitution lets them say whatever they wish with no consequences.

And innit funny how they practiced “Cancel Culture” for years, trying to boycott (and destroy) businesses that were run by people with Conservative viewpoints…..but now that the rhetoric is so terribly over the top that businesses are afraid of being damaged by the statements of their employees and Cancel Culture is a real thing (and Conservatives practice it much better than Liberals) …..now they cry “Free Speech!!!”…

.

So now the Diplomats are “Expressing Regret” over the ICE raids at the Hyundai plant in Georgia…..

Funny, the workers WERE here illegally, many never having the correct visa and others having overstayed theirs.

And lets not forget that they company got 2.1 BILLION dollars in “incentives” because they were supposed to be hiring Americans…instead of employing South Koreans.

Yet, for some reason, the US diplomats always grovel and apologize.

No wonder they are held in contempt my the rest of the people.

The correct answer is: “Now get things right and we will work with you to get temporary visas for your people so they can finish the plant and train the domestic folks that will replace them, and help you take steps to make sure this doesn’t happen to your other workers at the other plants you are building (to keep from having to pay tariffs) in the United States so that this doesn’t happen next time.  Play nice and all good, break the rules, get treated like every other illegal. ”

But don’t apologize for enforcing your own laws, fer chrissake.

But getting fired is a good start….

“Why didn’t the roommate of Kirk’s shooter call the cops after he found out about the shooting from Robinson himself?”

“’cause you can’t dial 9-11 with a furry costume on…those paws make it hard to use the phone.”

Seriously, I spit coffee all over the table at the diner. They knew I was eavesdropping (But they were loud enough that I couldn’t help but overhear).
