No, I mean it.

I failed.

I had a whole post set up to remind you of the Waco Massacre, when our government, under Janet Reno and approved by Bill Clinton, killed 83 people who just wanted to be left alone….28 of those killed were children. But it didn’t post, and I got busy with life and I simply didn’t make sure it got posted…..and in doing so I failed the memory of my fellow citizens who were slaughtered by the US government due to bureaucratic incompetence and just plain hubris and stupidity 30 years ago.

And the rest of us forgot as well. And that is shameful.

Because of the idiocy and incompetence of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, the whole thing spiraled out of control, and on April 19th 1993, the final push ended in the deaths of those people near Waco Tx.

Now, details can be found in many places, but the end result is that 83 people who weren’t harming anyone, who weren’t doing anything wrong, were simply killed because of government incompetence and stupidity…..and their fellow citizens across the country stood by and watched it happen. On live TV.

More importantly, those officials responsible for the debacle were not punished….shot or jailed or even demoted.

And we, I, watched and let it go.

And we let it be forgotten as well. I didn’t make sure that post published. I didn’t do my part to remind my fellow citizens of the atrocity perpetrated by our government against my fellow citizens 30 years ago.

We have forgotten. And it is a shame on all of us that were alive then that we have let it fade..

If you trust your government after seeing Waco and their treatment of the Branch Davidians, then you are a fool. And if you let that memory fade, then you are a sheep.

I am sorry that I let it slide. But think. Remember,

The “Old White Guy shoots Innocent Black Teen” story for days, one has to wonder why they haven’t played up the “Gangbanger related black family party shot up by 3 other black gangbangers who kill a nice kid with potential”  story as much? Why isn’t this getting the same amount of coverage? Both have a (supposedly) really decent young man killed before they could reach their potential…..

Unless, of course, tragedies like this are so normalized in the black community that no one is surprised by it so it just isn’t newsworthy…..

Or it simply won’t help stir up the black population, make them fearful and angry…

More crimes are committed against black people BY black people than by whites.

(I figured the gangbanger brother would have some connection here, and that the shooters would be black, but I waited to be sure before posting this)

Why is it that the media is nearly wall to wall over an elderly white man shooting at a young black male on his porch after 10 PM, but is essentially ignoring a mob of young black kids beating up people (mostly white people!) in Chicago Saturday night?

Funny how they can’t help but tell us that there is a “Racial Component” to the shooting, but ignore the race of the wilding, violent kids in Chicago, innit?

It’s almost like the are trying to stir the black population up or something, while hiding a major reason why there is fear and distrust of black people by whites….Mob behavior and simple crime.

Funny how that works.

Of course, it isn’t always racial. In fact, it just comes down to decency.

Shocking moment youth wrestler sucker punches rival in the FACE during post-game handshake after defeat

What a classy young man (Sarcasm in case you couldn’t figure that out)

If any school allows young Mr. Hafid Alicea to ever participate in any sport again, they should be banned from competition.

Is using the story of Ralph Yarl who was shot in  Kansas City, Mo  as a springboard to stir up the black population. The timing is similar to other highlighted incidents in the past, where the ramp-up started about 18 months before the Presidential elections…..and the DNC led media starts showing anyone who is white and Republican (or conservative) as racists….(therefore all Black people MUST vote Democrat)…

Added to the Social Media led Black Power empowerment gatherings, one cannot help but see a pattern.

Now, I have no doubt that the kid was shot….but the media is only telling us his side of the story. His claim is that he mistakenly went to the wrong house to pick up his younger siblings from where they were playing at a friends house….Odd that he couldn’t figure out that he was at the wrong house ….apparently the kids had been there more than once. That the house he approached was Dark, when the home he was supposedly picking the twins up at had people awake in it….

Odd that when the kids didn’t come out, he didn’t use his phone to call them (or the others in the house) to come out, but rather approached a dark house after 10PM…Strange, you’d think he’d have known better. You’d think he’d have used his cell phone to call for his brothers to come out.

Even odder is that apparently the first few people young Ralph encountered after the shooting chose not to help him….This suggests to me that young Ralph didn’t look like the photos that the Media is showing us….I bet he looked like, and was dressed like, a thug.

Remember, we only have young Ralph’s story that he gently knocked on the door and waited…. that he just stood there, waiting. That he was otherwise non-threatening, and was doing nothing else. That the man who shot him did so with no provocation.

There are some holes in the story that we are being told by the Media. Glossed over details that should be addressed. The mother (no father that I have seen in any story) tells us all how her kid has been traumatized in a simple mistake. Yet no one has done anything but cry Racism, and has ignored the oddities about this narrative.

I’m thinking this isn’t as one sided as we are being told….That there is much more than the narrative is telling us.

And, of course, there is the GoFundME page that has garnered over 4 million as of this publication….someone got a payday, like they always do….

But they needed a black kid and a white man to stir up the voting block. Expect more of this sort of provocation…stay away from crowds, Expect things to get worse….the flames fanned by the media.

One can argue that the beginning of the country happened.

The Battle at Lexington Green.

The colonists decided not to be disarmed, not to give up their powder and shot. THey resisted “Lawful Authority”…

The famous quote from Captain Parker says it all:

“Stand your ground; don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.”

And thus, it did. The beginnings of the beginning of the United States.

April 19 is a somewhat special day. Lots of momentous things have happened on this day over the years.

But the start of our country is one.

Seems that even REI can’t take the incredibly large amount of shoplifitng…..

So they’ve closed their downtown Portland store.

This from REI, one of the most “progressive” companies, with possibly the highest percentage of Liberal customers….

But business is business.

Soon in large Blue cities, there will be no businesses.

In coverage of these two similar stories.

On the one hand, stories about this incident are all over the media and internet. White man shoots black kid.,,, Note: 10 PM. Dude is on the porch.

Then there is this: man shot while repairing mailbox by two men who “Just wanted to kill someone”

Now, innit interesting that the kid who was shot by a white homeowner somehow had a cell phone, but oddly chose to bang on the door of a dark house when the people he was supposedly picking up didn’t come out? Hardly normal behavior for a young kid with a cell phone wouldn’t ya say? Lots of other questionable details too…

Then we have a story, not all over the national media, where two black men killed a white guy in broad daylight. Not a word from the national media. Were it not for the internet, we’d have never heard about it. I only heard about it from Phil’s blog

Look: both are tragic (if the first one is actually as reported, which is not assured, as it wouldn’t be the first story like this where the media ignored details to make a story). But the difference in coverage is huge. One, (if true) is tragic, the other is monstrous. One puts a white guy in a bad light, the other shows the worst side of black men. Ignoring the second won’t make the first any worse, and highlighting the first won’t make the second any less terrible. Unless, of course, you are trying to make whites look bad and hide the crime level of black people and make black hate and fear whites.

And then, of course, you have this tragedy.….Black on Black. The girl and her dead brother may be innocent, but other family members were criminals and gangbangers….

If you bother to pay attention, you can see that the media, especially National TV, is highlighting black people being killed.by whites and cops. Expect a long summer of unrest, fueled by media with biased coverage.

There is nothing better to make the rest of the population believe help reinforce the stereotype that a segment of a people are animals than for that segment to act like animals…..To believe that that segment is uncivilized, than to act, as a group, like a bunch of animals, in an uncivilized manner.

Especially so when that segment has obvious physical characteristics like skin color to help easily identify them as “animals”.

This weekend in Chicago is a perfect example

So a bunch of (oddly unidentified) “teens” caused chaos in downtown Chicago on Saturday night….Smashing store windows looting  jumping on cars and beating drivers who objected.

Lots of frightened tourists were escorted back to hotels by police and at least 4 people were hospitalized from beatings by the crowd.

Interestingly though, none of the local news stations bothered to identify the teens, doing their best to hide their faces and race. My sources in the Chicago Police tell me that they were all from the South and West sides…Few whites in the unruly crowd, and the “Teen Takeover” was organized on Social Media.

I am also told that the police were told not to “provoke” the crowd and that no arrests were made, even though the cops witnessed many incidents that were worthy of arrests. They have figured out that if they act as a crowd, the police will stand by helplessly rather than act to enforce Law and Order.

It oughta be a wonderful summer in Chicago if this is just the start. Decent people afraid to be out on a Saturday evening for fear of violence……

Oughta do a great deal of good for race relations…..everyone knows the race of the troublemakers even if the Media won’t come out and say it.

Update: 6:04 AM 4/17 According to CBS News Chicago, some  arrests were apparently made. 9 “Yoots” and 6 adults. Apparently the chaos started on FRIDAY, which is when no arrests were made. On Saturday the miscreants were even more bold, and Something Had To Be Done…
