Take a moment,

Raise a glass, look, up, whatever.

Think of who made sacrifices for your freedom.

Remember

Just to yourself, maybe, say a a prayer of thanks.

They deserve at least that.

 

Now enjoy your day.

George Floyd

(scheduled)

Today marks the anniversary of his death:

 

A career felon, high on fentanyl, who dies while being restrained by the police….breathing in enough air to loudly tell everyone “I can’t breath”

All the reports that I see still claim that he was killed by Derek Chauvin, the police officer who restrained him by “Kneeling on his neck” …

The left is, of course, perpetrating the lie, because a riled up black population is willing to listen to them when they claim they will fix things….which they haven’t for the entirety of my lifetime….But they vote regularly for the people that make empty promises…Which makes them still useful

There will be protests today…..about what is somewhat unclear, but protests there will be…(likely mostly white people, especially women, ridden with guilt)

and none of it will change the fact that George Floyd could have survived had he not struggled once caught, struggled like an animal….and had he not committed the crimes in the beginning, Cold have survived had he not had a load of fentanyl in his system that would have killed the average man immediately…..

 

But the left still finds it useful to blame everyone else but him and the culture that engendered him and the people like him….and the people that made money off of his death are still milking the populace for donations.

Offline for bit

Read the folks on the sidebar links, they are smarter than me and write better anyway.

 

May be back sooner, maybe later,

In the meantime, remember the folks we are Memorializing on this Memorial Day….

It ain’t just about a three day weekend.

So it has been 4 years

since we got rid of that racist and repressive brand called “Aunt Jemima” and changed it to “Pearl Milling Company” because it was, apparently the root cause of the Black community’s failings….

 

So, 4 years on, have the issues with the Black community fixed themselves? Has the poverty rate, the crime rate, the rate of single motherhood, the lack of black high school student graduates,  the rampant drug use,  and all their other ills, suddenly gotten better?

Has anything improved since we buried Aunt Jemima?

 

 

Question:

Who got fired (or, for that matter, criminally charged even) for the wasted monies that DOGE found in Energy, Education, USAID, etc?

 

I mean, that there was malfeasance is pretty obvious. So who got fired for it? Who signed off on the expenditures that were, at best, poorly thought out? Someone had to authorize the spending of millions and millions (and, apparently, millions more) of our tax dollars. Someone was responsible for the poor choices in spending….have they been in any way held to account for their signing off on the expenditures? If no, WHY not?

 

So who loses their job (at least) for all of this? What bureaucrats and leaders lost their jobs and (hopefully) their pensions for the mismanagement? (most of ’em oughta be shot, in my opinion),

 

Anyone?
