no one wants lowlife, ghetto thugs living in their neighborhood.

No One.

It’s not that these people are racist. Some are, after all, black. But they don’t want bad people fleeing a place where they helped to make a ghetto moving into their neighborhoods, where they will make the new place a new ghetto. 

What we see here is class issues. People moved to middle class suburbs for a reason. And they don’t want lowlifes to invade their neighborhoods and bring crime or blight to their homes and schools.

That is not racism, it is realism.

Cops are helping the unions in Wisconsin.

Now, while I am all for free speech, and I support the police choosing to support the union folks in their protest, I have several issues:

1. They were in full anti riot kit. IMO, this is a uniform. Had they been wearing civilian clothing, and not identifying themselves as police, then I would have few issues (although one might wonder about their loyalties, but that is another matter for another time).

B. Any time the police refuse to implement a lawful order…I.E :

“We have been ordered by the legislature to kick you all out at 4:00 today. But we know what’s right from wrong. We will not be kicking anyone out, in fact, we will be sleeping here with you!”

then they have broken their oaths and they should be subject to disciplinary action and/or terminated. While I am sympathetic to their dilemma, they have to choose their sides. (and this is a LAWFUL order, not an unlawful one that they could legally decide to ignore).

 III. If they choose to abrogate their responsibilities in support of the union, then that is indeed a choice that they have the right to make, they are free citizens after all, and can make the choice to side with the unions. They have a right to their opinions, and the right to support anyone they choose. BUT THEY CANNOT DECIDE WHICH LAWS THEY WILL ENFORCE AND WHICH THEY WILL NOT. It is an “all or nothing” thing here. There are no illegal or unconstitutional orders being given. It’s not like anyone can occupy the capitol at any time. Had I chosen to “occupy” the capitol 2 months ago, I would have been asked to leave, and then removed, had I chosen to ignore that order, possibly with trespassing charges thrown in for good measure. 

What we have here is people with conflicting loyalties who have shown us that they will not uphold the laws nor the (lawful) orders of their superiors. And this makes them unreliable, and unsuitable to be police. In any fashion. If the police cannot be depended upon to enforce order, no matter what their leanings, then they cannot be police.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

of the media playing Baghdad Bob. (look it up on wikipedia if you don’t remember the Iraq war)

“the majority of US citizens support the unions!”

HERE and HERE . They were trumpeting it on CBS news this morning as well.

The sad part is that they fail to realize how they undermine their credibility. And the part that angers me is that they think that you, and I, and our fellow citizens are dumb enough to believe whatever they say.

And that should anger you too.

I cannot believe that anyone will willingly support even higher taxes for someone else’s paycheck, especially municipal workers and teachers. (maybe for the military folks paychecks)

Were one to believe in conspiracy theories one might think that the MainStream Media were the propaganda department for the Democrats Socialist Party and their supporters, the unions.

I think that the real poll will come in 2012, when we find out where the support really lies.

ETA: good questions about this issue HERE

If our Democratic politicians had just listened when everyone was crying “Drill, baby, Drill”, back in 2007 as the elections loomed, those wells would likely be coming (or have recently come) online right now….and we would have less concern for the psychotic flailings of a madman... and how his actions affect the price of oil.

No, Not that madman …..Sorry, I mean this madman.

And oil would likely not be at $100+ a barrel, and gas not at $3.50+ a gallon.

Hope you have a plan for when it hits $5.00 per gallon for gas, and $6.00 for diesel.

’cause you aren’t going to be able to afford to drive anywhere…..and you aren’t going to like what the fuel cost does to the price of your food and consumer goods.

And all to appease a very small minority of our citizens….Just so he could gain 5% more votes.

At what cost to the nation?

Check out the numbers. Follow the links from here and see how much money has been passed around (and back) via the unions…..And now they want more of your money.

I may seriously have to consider thinking about moving to Montana.

Remember it.

Narrative HERE.

You’ll either be interested and go there, or you wont, and you won’t.

Your call.

We now return you to your previous space-time continuum.

“I hate Illinois Nazis”

But that’s not what I was talking about…..

I am talking about the National Socialist German Workers’ Party….AKA the German Workers Party….


They were socialists too….and with similar tactics..

Draw your own conclusions

like the below post, this strikes to the heart of the matter:

Sedition.

I kinda find it hard to argue with. And I tried to find an argument with which to refute the claim.

Read the whole thing.

I just have one question:

Do I have enough preps to ride out the trouble?If and when?

Bullets, beans, and bandaids?

If you don’t, and he is right, then you might want to rethink your situation. And change yer prep status accordingly. 
’cause if he IS right, and you have no preps…then yer gonna be in a WORLD of hurt.
