Strike

From the New York Daily News:

A 76-year-old Brooklyn woman was punched in the back of the head by a stranger in what residents fear could be the city's tenth "knockout game" attack. 

Yvonne Small fell to the ground after being punched by her assailant on Alabama Ave. and Wortman Ave. in East New York about 11:35 a.m., according to police sources...

Only the tenth victim?

Or the tenth that the media will admit?

Progressives In Action

One attribute of a Progressive is that they regard those who do not mindlessly follow them to be mindless.  And will commit a fraud to impose their falsehood on a real person.

In North Carolina one of them placed a no-guns sticker on a place of business without the owners consent.

[LINK HERE]

As noted in the blog post the false no-guns sticker places a gun owner in a false violation of a misdemeanor and his life in potential danger.

But the Progressives have never had a problem with committing murder.

A Problem I Have

Some people do not understand that Leslie is a gender neutral name.  This has led to no small amount of annoyance with people who expect to interact with a woman.  For example, I had an appointment to see an optometrist last week.  The woman who called to confirm the appointment heard a male voice and did not understand that she was actually speaking to the correct person.  She also came across as being dumb in general.

The appointment itself was another CF altogether.  I waited thirty one minutes after the specified time of the visit before I walked out without being seen by the optometrist.  This is inexcusable.

And given the fact that I have a gender neutral name I have decided to skip the bachelor party altogether.

Thanksgiving Day

Today is Thanksgiving Day.  The day a small group of very serious Christians celebrated surviving their hardcore idiocy. Seriously, just because one believes Jesus said that Communism was right does not mean that it is actually right. Likewise the hardcore Communists who presently rule over us will be overthrown.  We the real citizens of the United States must do so in order to really live a Human life.

And in basements across our nation this scene will be repeated:

What can I say but good riddance.

Happy Thanksgiving Day.

Munich II

I was so depressed today that I had to mentally compel myself to go out and buy groceries.

At the Rainbow Foods supermarket the Muzak system played this song:

Ironic, wasn't it?

The fact is that the end of civilization is now in sight.  The savages are on the march and the political leadership of the nation won't lift a finger to stop it.

Today I felt virtually every adverse emotion that was possible to feel.  I felt anger.  I felt chilled to the bone.  I still feel as if my heart had been torn out and fed to an alien deity.

Why?  Why did this betrayal of our nation and Humanity happen?

The foundation of the problem is the idea that Peace is a moral value apart from and superior to Life and Liberty.  The idea that Peace could be a value to someone who is not in command of their own life.

To strike the pose of moral superiority Barack Obama and his stooge John Kerry sold out the people of Israel and  other nations to the depraved rulers of Iran.  It is only a matter of time before they  detonate a nuclear weapon on those they wish to murder.  And as a result there will be another world war.  A war that will without question be fought nuclear and other horrible weapons.

What are your questions on this block of instruction?

Update 2140 CST:

 I could start out by quoting George Santayana, but those of us who actually perceive and think already know the statement.

History is being repeated and we are condemned to witness it.

The fundamental problem with Barack Obama and those who aid and support him is that they see themselves as exempt from the reality that we perceive and understand.  The history of errors made by the Progressive movement is absolutely meaningless to them.  The wave of destruction and the death toll is completely blanked out.

Because of his deliberate inattention to history the sitting president had decided to repeat one of the greatest blunders of the last century.  The Munich Agreement of 1938 allowed a totalitarian state to proceed with their program of empowerment and aggression.  This in turn would lead to the most devastating war in recorded history.  The current agreement with Iran will allow the Iranian state to construct nuclear weapons and use them in their program of aggression.  This in turn will result in a far more devastating world war fought with chemical and nuclear weapons.

And there may not be someone left alive to record the history.

This Is Not A Game

There will be a day when the true believers in African Racial Collectivism will look back on the present day as a golden age when the adherents of their doctrine could literally get away with murder.  That is the murder of any one who is not part of their racial collective.

This is not a new phenomena.  The original Ku Klux Klan, the terrorist arm of the Democratic Party, rode about the South to murder Blacks and those Whites who were deemed to be traitors to the race.  Likewise the uniformed terrorist arm of the National Socialists went about attacking Jews and those deemed to be insufficiently Aryan.  Once in complete power over their nation and most of Europe the National Socialists proceeded to practice murder as an industrial process.

Even though there was an economic objective for the concentration camps the primary goal of the Holocaust was essentially spiritual.  The elimination of The Other, the extermination of those outside the Aryan Racial Collective.

A disturbing phenomena, which our present Mainstream Media refuses to report, is growing number of deliberate assaults by gangs of young Blacks against those persons who are not part of the African Racial Collective.  And there is special emphasis on attacking Jews in this series of attacks.

They call it the Knockout Game.

As with their Aryan precursors, African Racial Collective has developed a cultural contempt for The Other.  Those who are not identified as members of the collective are deemed to be nonhuman as thus subject to attack.  The Other, the Non-Africans, are simply attacked for the thrill of it with no material gains to be had.  Non-Africans are hunted and assaulted as if they were members of a non-sentient game species.

Given the African Racial Collective has begun to adopt National Socialist behavior it comes to no surprise that some of them are identified and treated as such.  Some victims have responded with deadly force and have wounded or killed some perpetrators.

As with the German National Socialists before them the African Racial Collective now has a martyr for their cause.  As with Horst Wessel of the NSDAP in Germany, the African Racial collectivists here in the United States have declared Trayvon Martin to be a martyr.  And their de-facto Marxist political overseers are backing them with the full posture of moral  righteousness.  But the posture of righteousness is not identical with simply being right.

The African Racial Collectivists and their backers are not only placing themselves in opposition to reality they have placed themselves in opposition to us who live by reason in reality.

I would expect them to fully pay the natural and proper penalty.

If the adherents of African Racial Collectivism continue to behave as old school National Socialists then we, Humanity in General, will have no morally valid alternative but to identify and treat them as such.

Democracy In Action

Are you sitting comfortably?

Good. 

Now read the article at the following link.

[LINK HERE]

Have you calmed down yet?

Good.

The fundamental problem with the concept of Democracy is that there is no inherent restriction on the power of the state.  What the majority decides becomes the act of the Democratic State.  And if the majority decides that you must die then the Democratic State will kill you.  To govern is to exercise control over the social use of force.  But in the Democratic State there is no control.  There is no restraint on the exercise of power.  Anything literally goes.

Or, to put it another way, it really sucked to be Socrates in the Democratic State of Athens.

Because of this the Founders of the United States rejected the concept of the Democratic State in favor of a Constitutional Republic.  This was a form of government that clearly defined the powers granted to it and outlawed the exercise of powers not granted to it.

As you have seen in the article The Constitution is no longer in effect.  The nation and California in particular have degenerated into democratic states exercising unrestrained power. 

Although the action in San Rafael appears to be a trivial annoyance where no one died, the Federal actions at Ruby Ridge and Waco clearly were the exercise of unrestrained force.

It is only a matter of time before someone else needlessly dies.

The Real Working Class

Here is an Afterburner video from Bill Whittle:

For the record the first job I held where I received a paycheck and filed an income tax return was a part time janitorial job for ten hours a week at two Fanny Farmer candy shops in downtown Minneapolis.  The first job I held after my honorable discharge from the United States Army was a janitorial job cleaning up a multiplex theater owned by United Artists Theaters in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.

I was not in any way demeaned by those jobs.  Ever.

What is demeaning is being taxed to pay for nonproductive trash to lord over us.

Nonsense

Some Conservative writers have published articles and even one book asserting that President John F. Kennedy was in fact a Conservative.

I have to call nonsense on this.

The Kennedy Brothers were professional pragmatic politicians who acted and made the statements necessary to obtain and to be reelected to public offices.  Conservative positions were taken in order to obtain the requisite votes.  For the Kennedy Brothers the figurative wet finger was always in the wind.

For Edward Kennedy the political positional options were limited after the Chappaquiddick Incident.  No Conservative, let alone  anyone with an actual conscience, would vote for a drunken serial philanderer who left a date to suffocate after a car accident.

But then Teddy also had a reputation for being an idiot.

Anniversary

On this day fifty years ago a pathetic little Communist murdered an open opponent of Communism.

He was doing what Communists normally do.

Bleed A Lot

Some day the true believers in African Racial Collectivism will look back on the present day as a golden age when the adherents of their doctrine could literally get away with murder.

That is the murder of any one who is not part of their racial collective.

This is not a new phenomena.  The original Ku Klux Klan, the terrorist arm of the Democratic Party, rode about the South to murder Blacks and those Whites who were deemed to be traitors to the race.  Likewise the uniformed terrorist arm of the National Socialists went about attacking Jews and those deemed to be insufficiently Aryan.  Once in complete power over their subjects the National Socialists proceeded to practice murder as an industrial process.

Even though there was an economic objective that was pursued the primary goal of the Holocaust was essentially spiritual.  The elimination of The Other.  The extermination of those outside the racial collective.

A disturbing phenomena, which the Mainstream Media refuses to report, is growing number of deliberate assaults by gangs of young Blacks against those persons who are not part of their racial collective.  There is special emphasis on attacking Jews.

This is called the Knockout Game.

 As with the precursors, African Racial Collectivism has developed a cultural contempt for The Other.  Those who are not identified as members of the collective are deemed to be nonhuman as thus subject to attack.  The Other is attacked simply for the thrill of it with no material gains to be had.  Non-Africans are simply hunted as if they were a mere game species.

Given that some Blacks have begun to adopt Nazi behavior it is no surprise that some of them are identified and treated as such.  Some victims have responded with deadly force and have killed some perpetrators..

As with German National Socialism before it the African Racial Collective now has a martyr for their cause.  The thug Trayvon Martin has become their version of Horst Wessel.

And as with the National Socialists before them the African Racial Collective has deemed the act of self defense by The Others to be a crime and is pursuing the goal of punishing and further persecuting their victims*:

The 28th Amendment, as drafted, will implement a series of common sense gun laws and implement new revenue streams for Americans. The 12 provisions below will work to make America a more safe place by eliminating the obviously failed experiment that is the second amendment.

1. The second amendment of the Constitution of the United States, being no longer necessary to a secure state is hereby nullified.
2. The production and sale of new firearms, being defined as a rifle, pistol, or other gun, will be disallowed until a time in which the number of firearms in circulation is equal to 50% of the population as determined by the Census.
3. No gun may reside in the same building as anyone who has failed a mental health evaluation, as performed by a medical professional, as approved by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare).
4. A mental health examination, as performed by a medical professional approved by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) must be passed in order to receive a firearms license.
5. An income tax equal to 4% of an individual’s income will be assessed upon all gun owners.  In states which were at any point in time a part of the Confederate States of America, this tax shall be equal to 10% of an individual’s income.  Taxes levied under this amendment shall be appropriated in equal portions to programs to expand Affirmative Action programs and begin to pay reparations to the descendants of African slaves.
6. Any person making the choice to own a firearm must carry $250,000 worth of liability insurance for each weapon owned.  This insurance must be provided by a publicly owned insurance company to be established.
7. All firearms must be retrofitted with both a global positioning transmitter as well as a fingerprint activated locking mechanism.  Failure to comply with this provision will result in a fine, prison time, and forfeiture of the privilege of firearm ownership.
8. The National Rifle Association, Michigan Militia, and other “gun rights” groups shall be considered terrorist operations.
9. United States Marshals will be randomly placed at various “sporting venues,” where a firearm could be otherwise legally discharged.  This could include publicly or privately owned venues where the following (but not limited to) take place:  hunting areas, shooting ranges.
10. In a calendar year, no person may buy more than 100 rounds of ammunition.
11. Assault rifles, semi-automatic, and automatic weapons, as well as those not fitted with GPS and trigger locking devices will be immediately seized by the government.  The owner will be compensated fair market value of the weapon, minus the cost of the seizure operation.
12. President Obama will establish a Secretary of Firearm management.  This office will have final say over future gun regulation to prevent against rampant innovation that was not forseen by the second amendment.

This is straight out of the National Socialist playbook.  The citizens of the Southern states are cast in the role of the Jews.  Organizations that uphold the rights of citizens, including Jews For The Protection Of Firearms Ownership**, are banned.  And The Big Zero is cast as the eternal leader.

"HEIL OBAMA!"

 If the adherents of African Racial Collectivism continue to behave as old school National Socialists then we, Humanity in General, will have no morally valid alternative but to identify and treat them as such.

[INSERT ANOTHER EXPRESSION OF RAGE HERE]

The TSA is effectively a mime theater whose purpose is to create the appearance of action where no effective action is actually performed.

The fact is that our nation and Humanity in General is at war with Islam.  But the idiots in Washington and the rest of the world are somehow adverse to correctly responding to Islamic aggression.  Instead they oppress American Citizens to create the illusion of action.

Has our so-called government sold out to foreign Koran waving masters?  Have they crossed the line into treason?

Do we have to put the lot of them to death?

Suggestion

I have two very simple suggestions for cleaning up the Obamacare mess.

First, repeal the Affordable Care Art.

Second, all those who voted for it must resign from public office.

To our self appointed masters within the Beltway this is both too simple and a surrender of power.

As the self appointed masters are no longer in compliance with The Constitution, We The People of the United States of America are no longer under any obligation to comply with their commands.

Anniversary

On this day 150 years ago Abraham Lincoln, the President of the United States, gave a two minute speech to commemorate the dedication of the Soldier's Cemetery  at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.

[WIKIPEDIA LINK HERE]

The current occupant of the office, His Imperial Majesty Barack Obama, has declined to participate in the ceremonies commemorating the anniversary of the address.  This is not surprising as it would be clearly hypocritical for an open tyrant to commemorate a battle in defense of the value of Freedom.

On Assassination

A Leftist -- especially a formally indoctrinated leftist -- will believe anything except the truth.

For example  the New York Times has published an editorial piece claiming that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated as a result of the collective will of the City of Dallas, Texas.

[LINK HERE]

The fact that President Kennedy was murdered in a Democrat controlled state by a Communist apparently did not enter the non-existent mind of the author. Nor did the fact that there is no such clearly identifiable thing as a collective will.  That belief is simply a Marxist myth.

The fact is that the assassination of a significant political figure is essentially a suicide mission. The term assassin is derived from the Islamic cult of the Assassins.  A group whose members were induced into performing suicide missions through the use of hashish.

Even though more than sufficient grounds have been provided for a seizure of the Federal Government by force it will not happen because those who can do so understand that Barack Obama is not the cause of the problem, he is merely the symptom.  The actual problem is the subculture holds the rights of individuals in contempt and is willing to use force to reach their goals.  A single assassination will not solve this problem.

Though there is no shortage of trained individuals who are able to carry out the mission it will not happen because we who have the necessary skills understand that it would be futile.  If Barack Obama were assassinated it will be the result of someone who identified him as insufficiently Marxist or Islamic in action.

UPDATE 0145 CST:

 I attempted to post most of the text of this article on an Objectivist mailing list.  The list owner replied:

Even to write about why you *won't* assassinate the President is both inappropriate and likely to bring the FBI down on you.

I replied:

Sir,

I understand your point.  But I've been tempting fate and the FBI for about two decades now.  I've posted The Resister online and contributed to it.  And I've stopped believing that the failure of the Feds to act is due to an affirmative action diversity hire failing to do her job.

But then perhaps I've been insufficiently provocative.

Any further questions?

Sunday Afternoon

It's a nice Sunday afternoon and the Apocalypse hasn't happened.

I'm going out for one of the best cheeseburgers in the known universe. But first, a bit of fun:

Old News

Back in April of 1994 when we still used dial up modems and held discussions in USENET newsgroups someone named Carol posted the following about The Resister on TALK.POLITICS.GUNS:

hold on there! before anybody subscribes, READ one of these things. i mean, the ENTIRE thing. i've read four or five over the last year and it all seems ok for a time. get way down into the guts of the thing and you start finding racial/racist crap.

I immediately replied:

Gee-Gosh-Wow "carol!" Could you *please* explain to us how you managed to read "four or five" issues "over the last year" of a newsletter that only been in print for *nine* months when I am still eagerly awaiting my grey copy of the fourth issue?

BTW, what is the number of your CPUSA membership card?

There is only one race on this planet -- THE HUMAN RACE.

A tribal collectivist -- be he a member of the Black congressional Caucus or of the National Socialist German Workers Party -- is someone who treats his particular ethnic heritage as an license to subjugate, plunder, and massacre anyone who is not part of his collective.

Tribal collectivists claim that they are exempt from the rules of civilized society. Let us take they at their word and cast them out of civilization and into the garbage dump of history.

Carol did not reply. But an idiot from Canada did:

She has better mail service than you?

Is it a monthly or bi-monthly set-up? If so, then 9 months will, in fact produce "four or five issues"...

What the HELL are you blathering about?! She's SLAMMING it for racism! You know, using a "particular ethnic heritage as a[n] license to subjugate plunder and massacre anyone who is not part of his collective"? Read the whole post before you go ballistic. You'll look like less of a clot...

As you can see, this idiot with delusions of mental superiority was not paying attention.

I responded:

Here are some clues *tovarish*:

1. I quoted the WHOLE post.

2. Since the "stupid cow" (as one of my friends called her) didn't give a specific citation for her accusation I assumed that the criticism (to put it politely) of the Black Congressional Caucus was one of the points that she was referring to. The RESISTER also condemns mandatory racial discrimination A.K.A "affirmative action."

3. The RESISTER is a quarterly newsletter. I am a subscriber. I am also the person responsible for posting the ASCII text of each issue on t.p.g. I receive e-mail and phone calls from people who believe that I actually have contact with the Special Forces Underground.

I once received a call from Tim Kern, a radio talk show host from Colorado (his program is syndicated by the USA Patriot Network, M-F 0500-0700 MT on Galaxy 6, Transponder 14, Audio 5.8 wideband) asking me if I could put him in touch with the SFU. Needless to say, I couldn't.

4. CPUSA = Communist Party USA.

5. *GEE-GOSH-WOW* Comrade Don!!! If you didn't sleep through classes you might know that *Racial Polylogism* was a distinguishing characteristic of the dogma of German National Socialism. That *Aryan Logic* told them that they were the MASTER RACE and that they could do anything they bloody well wanted to members of all other races. Any objections raised were dismissed as non-Aryan (English, Jewish, etc.) logic and thus were not binding upon themselves.

*Der Afrikanererstaznazis* of the Black Caucus refuse to accept the fact that chattel slavery was perpetrated by both Whites and Blacks. Blacks in Africa would raid neighboring tribes and sell their prisoners to White and Arab slave traders.

Instead, Black tribal collectivists choose to treat chattel slavery as the act of the "White Race" inflicted upon the "Black Race." treating this as a blank check to gain plunder and favors at the expense of non-blacks. Ignoring of course the fact that price for the sin of chattel slavery has already been paid -- IN BLOOD.

Unfortunately the vile institution of slavery was not destroyed but was instead nationalized. The program of the Democratic Party since the reign of Woodrow Wilson has been to inflict the German form of socialism (begun under Otto Von Bismarck and taken to its ultimate conclusion under Hitler) upon America. Hitler called his doctrine "Marxism without the Talmudic frills." What we have under the Clintonistas is National Socialism without the Aryan frills.

The dumb as a brick Marxists are still out there.

The End Of The Road Revisited

Salena Zito at Real Clear Politics wrote:

In nine days, this town will commemorate the 150th anniversary of Lincoln's speech with a ceremony at the same Soldiers' National Cemetery featuring the U.S. Marine Band, Governor Tom Corbett, and a reading of the Gettysburg Address... One person who will not be among those honoring Lincoln is President Barack Obama.

[LINK HERE]

Why is that?

The battle of Gettysburg is seen by historians as the high water mark of the Confederate cause. But what was the cause of the Confederacy?

In my present view it was Elitism.

The Southern states were politically dominated by the slave holding class. A group of men who saw themselves as entitled to the labor of African slaves and the obedience of common white men. With the wealth and free time taken from the backs of their slaves they came to dominate the Southern states of the American Republic. The rise of the Republican party came as a result of the citizens of the North becoming tired of the abuses inflicted by the Southern Elites. The Southern Elites saw no alternative to preserve their class privileges but to leave The Union.

The War of Succession was presented to the common citizens of the South as a struggle for liberty but the fact was that the actual objective was to preserve the power of the Elites. When conscription was imposed on the South the slave holding class was essentially exempt from it. The true view of the common citizens by the Elites was made clear for the first time.

With the defeat at Gettysburg the cause of the Confederacy and the Elites who ruled it had no place to go but down.

So why would Barack Obama, someone generally identified as a Marxist, decline to participate in the ceremonies at Gettysburg?

Because Marxism is an elitist doctrine. It was created by a self-appointed elite for the benefit of the self-appointed elite. Marx, Engels, and their subsequent followers, saw themselves, without qualification, as the masters of the actually rational and productive citizens of their nations. Their efforts, as with the Southern Elites, were to control and use people for their own benefit. Regardless of their public statements the natural inclination of the Marxists is to side with their fellow users of humanity.

On this basis it's no surprise that The Big Zero is a no-show at Gettysburg.

Yes, I know this rant is a bit sloppy, but what are your questions?

On Political Authority

On Saturday I posted a rant on the subject of political authority. Here's the basic version without the complaint about rust:

One of the ideas that has been rattling about in the remnant of my brain is that a mere warm body should not exercise political authority. I acquired this thought from reading Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein about a decade before picking up anything written by Ayn Rand. The fact is that all forms of authority are based on knowledge and political authority is no exception.

But in the present system political authority is granted to any warm body without regard to their the actual state of knowledge. As a result some warm bodies have traded their votes for a material object such as an IPad or a wad of cash. Or worse they have traded their votes for the warm and fuzzy feeling of having been compassionate.

The result is out present state of our nation. Those who lack knowledge or simple concern for consequences should not have authority over another person, let alone the fate of a nation.

Heinlein's proposed solution to the problem is relatively easy to look up for yourself. Or you can purchase a copy of Starship Troopers from Ace Books.

My solution to the problem is simply proper education in the obligations of citizenship.

The course would be similar to a driver education course as presently taught. The first part of the class covers The Constitution, the proper functions of each branch of government, the function of each clause and amendment, the duties of the citizen as the sovereign authority of the nation, and what happened when the Federal Government was allowed to enter the failure mode.

The second part of the course covers the function and use of the instrument of political authority, the personal weapon. This covers rifle marksmanship and maintenance. Also covered is the basic organization and tactics of the citizen militia unit.

While the citizenship course will not be mandatory, completion and a passing grade will be required to exercise the authority to vote.

Sunday Disturbance

This is a disturbing thought.

Has anyone else noticed that Charles Schumer is the literal embodiment of the subject of anti-Semitic propaganda? That POS has deceived and used the Jewish voters of New York to gain power and those same voters will be left holding the bag when it is time to hold him accountable for his crimes.

We know that Schumer is fully responsible for his acts, but not everyone will be properly enlightened and innocent (or at least ignorant) people will be wrongly punished This is clearly wrong.

An Idea

I'll start by showing two photos I took with the laptop camera.





I regret that the photos were taken under less than ideal conditions but the rust spots are visible.

The photos are of a magazine for a Norinco AK-47 chambered in the 5.56 x 45 mm NATO cartridge. I purchased the weapon and magazines while preparing for an insurrection during the Clinton Administration. I could have bought a standard AK-47 but chose this particular weapon because if I lived long enough I could use captured ammunition without changing to a captured M16 series weapon. As a result of my experience in the US Army I was not a fan of the M16A1 or any related weapon.

So how did this magazine come to be in such an awful condition?

Two years ago I was a cab driver struggling to make enough to cover the extortion payments levied by our so-called state and federal governments. I went to bed and about a month later I was hospitalized for pneumonia and had a heart attack resulting in anoxia and brain damage. I was not expected to live. At this time my mother and one of my brothers cleared out my apartment. One of the things that happened during this process was that my business records for driving a cab were thrown out. Fortunately my mother took my weapons into storage at her home. But the brother took the web gear with loaded magazines and stored them in his garage. As a result the web gear became moldy and the magazines rusted.

A real citizen should have known better than to do this.

I was beyond the state of anger when I saw the magazines. My brother had acted out of ignorance, as if he were a dog that had defecated on a valuable antique rug.

One of the facts of the matter was that I had not read in any member of my family on the full extent of my political activities including my connection to the Special Forces Underground and The Resister. But allowing rifle magazines to rust is simply inexcusable.

One of the ideas that has been rattling about in the remnant of my brain is that a mere warm body should not exercise political authority. I acquired this thought from reading Starship Troopers by Robert A. Heinlein about a decade before picking up anything written by Ayn Rand.

Nothing To Write About

President Barack Obama is an intellectual nihilist who is in apparent sympathy with the metaphysical and moral nihilists who rule Iran. As a result The Zero is allowing the the Iranian state to continue their program of enriching the uranium necessary to construct a basic fission bomb. Of course this is meaningless to The Zero. The truth is not important and human lives are not a value to him. All that matters to him is being in power.

Of course real authority comes with responsibility but why should The Zero care about a bunch of Jews being vaporized when he's firmly seated on the heap.

As I said, nothing to write about.

Politically Correct Nonsense

David Hall, a friend of mine, sent me the following message. it is posted here with his permission:

Les,

Yesterday morning I came into my office at Bladen Community College to find specific web sites that I have accessed for over a year now blocked by the Barracuda Web Site Blocker. And why you might ask? Because they pertain to the category "Weapons."

I am at a college in a county who has an arms manufacturer. This same company employs machinists that this school wants me to train for careers in machining yet they desire to be PC and anti-gun.

I ran an e-mail up to the Dean and Executive VP and ask that it be rectified. If not, my contract expires on January 3.

I cannot and will not work for such a two-faced outfit.

Told you I needed a drink.

Unfortunately, in my state of health I can't afford to drink.

Public Education Today

When the leftists were screaming that authority must be questioned they were directing their screeches at real authority based on real knowledge. If anyone is behaving like an old school National Socialist it's the teacher and teacher's union president. And both of those idiots will be perfectly free to scream their falsehoods in the private sector. Yes, they should both be fired.

Better yet, let's separate education from government.

And then there's a primary school principal in Georgia who not only needs to be fired, but also needs to be horsewhipped.

But that's my opinion.

In The Real World

Here is a photo from Pamela Geller's blog:



Here is the story for it. [LINK HERE]

I am beyond disgusted. In fact I now look at this behavior with the dispassion of a scientist. It's not that I don't care. I do care about the people of Israel. But this lot has so thoroughly dehumanized themselves that I now look at them as mere predatory animals that need to be put down for the safety of Israel and for Humanity in general.

I could denounce them for walking on the flag, which is no more that the practice of symbolic magic or voodoo. But so what? They have so thoroughly renounced reason that I have to wonder how any of them get out of bed in the morning without killing themselves. It is only because they can function on the perceptual level of consciousness that they exist all, as well as being a danger to others.

The fact that they are calling for a Second Holocaust means nothing to the Left in general. The Left, from our so-called president to the most brainwashed college student, does not believe that anyone has a right to live. Let alone a right to defend themselves. They will continue to cheer on as the so-called Palestinians murder the people of Israel and condemn every act necessary to protect human lives.

And the Left and their hominid pets in black will never be held to account.

Except by us.

A Quote

Sarah Palin said on the subject of the Obamacare bill:

The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's 'death panel' so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their 'level of productivity in society,' whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.

Mrs. Palin is absolutely correct. Of course our unofficial Reich-ministry of Culture proceeded to denounce Mrs. Palin as a liar.

But the fact of the matter is that leftists see people as something to be used. And if a person is unusable, why keep them alive?

In a truly free society the truly generous would step in to help. But in the nightmare of socialism, where all resources are under the control of the state, only the rulers and those who can be used matter.

Meanwhile Outside

We've just had the first snowfall in Minneapolis.

I wish I could get away from politics everyday.

A Proposal

AMENDMENT XXVIII

All religions which deny the validity of the Constitution shall not claim protection under it.

The Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

Moron Monday

There was a time when this blog was titled Living In The Surreal World. The point was that virtually everyone else was not treating reality as being real. Some people who read it didn't get the point.

Jackie Cherryhomes a former member of the Minneapolis municipal soviet is running for the office of major. The last time she showed up at my doorstep I told her to go to hell. Five minutes ago as I write this she showed up again. I calmly said: "Go to Hell, I've told you this before."

Seriously, where do these people come from?

The Notional Debt

The question of the day: Should the victims be held liable for the debts run up by the criminals?

The correct answer is no. But try telling that to the Democrats and the Vichy Republicans.

The Democrats and the Vichy Republicans, who are in effect now a single ruling party, are exercising powers which were not granted to the Federal Government as well as powers which are specifically prohibited. And in doing so they have run up a debt that is both insane and beyond the capacity to redeem.

In short they are committing crimes against the people of the United States.

The Fourteenth Amendment, Fourth Section states:

The Validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned, but neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligation and claims shall be held illegal and void.

Let's step back and examine the situation objectively. The executive and legislative branches of the federal government are in clear violation of the Constitution, and the judicial branch is along for the ride. Not only are they exercising specifically prohibited powers, but they are actively working to disarm the citizens of the nation. Which is in practical effect an act of insurrection.

To govern is to exercise control. But this mob which calls themselves the government is out of control. They refuse to comply with the laws to which they are subject. And they are now subjecting us to their will.

They are not the government. They are the insurrection.

Are we liable for their debts? Absolutely not.

Who Is The Enemy?

On Sunday, Nov 27, 1994, I found the following item on the talk.politics.guns newsgroup:



The New Enemy

"Parameters", the journal of the Army War College, has published an article by a Maj. Ralph Peters which identifies the next "enemy" of the "Politicized" Bill/Hillary Clinton military as U.S. Patriots, defined as the "Warrior Class". Patriots are described as "Erratic Primitives of Shifting Allegiances, Habitated to Violence with no stake in Civil Order".

And I posted the following response:

Civil Order as understood by adherents of the Platonic/Hegelian/Marxist/Nazi collectivist ("progressive," "caring," etc.) philosophical tradition is a social state in which we, the hominid livestock, live as directed by our self appointed masters.

The bipedal cattle who do not obey are visited by the "Guardians"/SS/ATF or other such creatures.

Civil Order in the real world as described by Aristotle and Ayn Rand is the societal condition in which we, the humans, are free to live by our own judgement of the facts of reality for our own purposes, without being put upon by thugs and tyrants.

The enemies of true civil order will always try as Orwell warned us, "...to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable," as had happened at Waco. When we accept the definitions given by our enemies, we lose. For the Clintons and their collaborators to call us "Erratic Primitives," is nothing less than a Nazi style smear.

In the real world we must define or be defined.

The Clintons and the other self styled "progressives" have tried, through their so called "health reform" and other such actions, to force us into a state of dependency and servitude. To turn the United States of America, the greatest nation on this planet into a vast slave labor camp. These are not the actions of the defenders of "civil order." These are attacks on civilization and Mankind as such.

We must see reality for what it is, things for what they are, and people for who they are. We, the defenders of American Civilization, must show our families, friends, and neighbors that we are who we are, and that our enemies are what they are.

Socialism is slavery and socialists are slavers. And as far as I am concerned, all slavers, regardless of what auditory garbage they put forth as an excuse, are enemies of Mankind fit only for extermination.

Comment On The LAX Shooting

From my perspective as a veteran combat rifleman it is very clear that the perpetrator of the shooting incident at LAX lacked the knowledge necessary to effectively use the weapon. It is as if he held the Marxist view that the mere possession of the instrument was sufficient to make effective use of it. The fact is that a trained rifleman using an AR-15 type rifle (FEH!) with a single thirty round magazine and iron sights should have been able to inflict at least twenty casualties.

To continue this criticism in detail would effectively provide a guide for future assailants and thus would be immoral.

The point is that knowledge matters. And that ignorance is NOT strength.

To Die In L.A.

What can be confirmed at the time of this writing is that someone carried a rifle into a gun-free zone and used it to deadly effect.

What can be clearly predicted at this time is that the advocates of citizen disarmament will continue to ignore the obvious fact that they are facilitating mass shootings by creating the gun-free zones.

Thought for Friday

A friend sent a file of an Equal Opportunity Counselor training manual.

Just what we all need.  A manual on how to jam one's head up one's own ass.

In reality individuals and groups that consistently practice the virtues of rationality and self discipline will always have an advantage over those who don't.  A fundamental part of rationality is the understanding that there is always something more to learn.  That life is THE learning experience.  And what one doesn't know WILL hurt them.  The Southern white boy whose personal library consists solely of The Bible has a clear advantage over the African tribal chieftain.  I would not trade being the former for being the latter.
