A violent Easter

So, on Chicago’s South Side, there were 40 (FORTY) people shot on Easter weekend. Forty people.

‘Twasn’t good Lutherans that did it, nor those rambunctious Amish Yoots. Probably not European ancestry folks either.

The press has studiously avoided telling us the race or giving descriptions of either the victims or the perpetrators, which should tell you something.

Until we can discuss the problem truthfully, we can’t fix the problem.

Yep, I know, I’m a racist.
Truth hurts sometimes though.

Interesting:

Seems that since Trump was elected, there is a rise in citizenship applications.

Some of the spin is that because green card holders now want to be able to vote…So they want to be citizens.

There is also a large group that lived here for years illegally, but never bothered to gain citizenship or any legal status like a green card….

Now, of course, that has changed.

Interesting that once the DNC and their ignoring of immigration laws (and outright violating them in some cases) people wanting to live and work here in the US are bothering to do the right thing.

Funny, that. 

Indeed:

Not so easy when the other side plays by your rules, izzit? 

I have always figured that if you think you need to hide your face, then you feel that your actions are contemptible and something to be ashamed of.

Notice, at Berkely, who wore masks to hide their faces?

And, this is Berkely….As the author says, try this in Texas, or Iowa, or  Kansas or Indiana or pretty much anywhere in the Midwest.

I’ve always found that a protest sign is most effective if it is stapled to a Louisville Slugger or an axe handle...(YMMV, check local laws, etc.). Especially when gripped tightly in both hands.  (“Ain’t nothing like a nice piece of hickory” and all that)

Someone, soon, is gonna get seriously hurt or killed. But hey, they set the rules. Live or die by ’em.

Didja notice in the YouTube, the Trump folks all had First Aid supplies and appeared to know how to use ’em? Planned on taking damage, it appears. I can respect that.

And they ain’t hiding their faces, either.

I Laughed and laughed

Via a friend who saw it on a facebook page.

2 weeks ago…..

The dealership called to tell me that the truck that I had ordered would be arriving in a week or 10 days…2 weeks at the outside……

Today (Saturday), they told me that it should be here in….2 weeks, maybe a week, ten days…two weeks at the outside.

I am beginning to see a pattern here…. 

Maybe I will go….

Nah, the Secret Service will likely make me take off my gun(s) and knives and other pocket implements of destruction and mayhem. I hate that.

I dunno. I mean, “Victim Disarmament Zone”. I tend to avoid those. I have known 3 Secret Service Agents in my life. One I respect greatly (talking about you, Lee). The other two were Polish and Irish Drunks, with the IQ of a bar piano in a whorehouse…..and that might be insulting the piano.
(In case you didn’t get it, I don’t trust the SS very much…..Certainly not with MY personal security) …plus there is the To and From the event where I would be disarmed….in Atlanta. 

WALL

Now that is what a border wall should be.
Of course, then one needs a minefield to make things even less encouraging for those who would try to cross.

And the company the company that has proposed it is being threatened by the SJW’s….

I think they ought to let people sponsor a section.

(I especially l ike his offer to those who would oppose the wall….He will come and remove the fence around their house….for free….Since after all they oppose walls and all…

One wonders how the police officers

Were able to leave the plane unharmed.

Officers beat man unconscious and drag him off plane in bloody mess. 

One would think, in a post 9-11 world, that the attacking officers would be beaten by passengers. One wonders why this did not occur.

I see several things:

1. The officer doing the beating should be sued…no “professional immunity”.

2. The officers that were with him, who stood by and did nothing, should be fired for failing to stop a crime in progress….specifically battery and/or assault.

3. Once I am issued a boarding pass and seated. That is my seat. You can deny me a boarding pass and therefore a seat, and rebook me on another flight…but once I am seated, the contract (ticket) is in force. (yeah I know, Obeying the “legal orders of a flight crew”…but that is valid only once the airplane has left the terminal, so not valid here) United owes this guy BIG compensation for their actions. If not forthcoming voluntarily, then through the court system.

But, again, why did the passengers allow some guy with a badge to beat a man unconscious for refusing to vacate a seat he had paid for and been assigned? Why was the man with a badge not stopped…with force, if necessary? There were plenty of passengers who could have, at least, blocked the aisles and called for State police or other law enforcement.

Allowing such behavior, cop or not, is wrong.
