Caution

Whskey Tango Foxtrot?

This image was on the opening page of the American edition of the Daily Mail:

If we had an actually functioning government then Barrack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and most of the political establishment would have been put to death for treason.  And the abomination known as the Kaaba would have been erased from the face of the Earth.  And the doctrine known as Islam would have joined Soviet Communism and National Socialism in the dustbin of history.

MILITARY COUP NOW!

So Anyway

I usually have something to say after an attack by Muslims but why bother?

BOOK REVIEW

The Ominous Parallels--The End of Freedom in America. Leonard Peikoff. New York: NAL Penguin, Inc., 1982. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 83-60247. ix + 316 pages plus references and index.. Soft cover $10.00.


Reviewed by Red Barchetta

This book asks: "What caused Nazi Germany?" Unlike lesser attempts to explain that blood bath, The Ominous Parallels answers: "The same philosophies that are prevalent in the United States of America." Dr. Peikoff argues convincingly that in both countries the intellectual, educational and political leadership share, explicitly or implicitly, the same core ideologies. These ideologies submit that reality is subjective--a malleable illusion; emotions are the proper guide to human action--especially the emotions of race and the tribe, which cannot be understood by outsiders; self-sacrifice for the sake of others should usurp a man's own desires--and the state must take any necessary action to ensure that sacrifice. These ideologies demand that "individual selfishness" does not obstruct the path of "the public interest."

From Part One, Chapter One: " 'To be a socialist,' says Goebbels, 'is to submit the I to the thou; socialism is sacrificing the individual to the whole.' By this definition, the Nazis practiced what they preached. They practiced it at home and then abroad. No one can claim that they did not sacrifice enough individuals."

The underlying theme in The Ominous Parallels is how philosophy shapes cultures, and reading this book, it is difficult to escape a feeling of hopeless dread; of being caught in racing floodwaters and swept madly toward a destruction you are helpless to prevent. Given the theme of this nation's descent into fascism, and Dr. Peikoff's uncompromising method of proving it, that is the proper effect.

The conclusion of The Ominous Parallels is not that we are helplessly destined to go to the same lengths down the same road as Germany. The conclusion is that it is time for us to choose whether or not we will; that if we fail to consciously decide, the decision will be made for us. Contrary to the bleating of irrationalists then or now, it is only a coherent philosophy of reason and individual rights which will give us the means to choose not to become our own slaughterhouse.

Dr. Peikoff shows that such a philosophy is not prevalent in the United States because, although this nation was unique in being founded on philosophic ideals (rather than arbitrary land-grabs and tribal warfare), it was ultimately lacking a coherent detailed formulation of those ideals, as well as the Aristotelian philosophers to create one. Independence from Europe was only won physically--not ideologically. "The land of poets and philosophers was brought down by its poets and philosophers," says Peikoff. The resulting bowel movement of docile Nazi sheep who obeyed their Fuhrer because they obeyed their philosophers could indeed be us, for their philosophers--their pragmatists and Kants, their Hegels and Marxes--are ours
by adoption.

We do have one trump card, "...the philosophical breach between the American people and the intellectuals." In Germany, the intellectuals and the people were united in ideology, feeling at home in their country and with each other. This, says Peikoff, is not yet the case in America. Peikoff's book will help to keep it that way.

Jerry Pournelle On Brownshirts

Writing from Chaos Manor:

Hitler and Mussolini used to disrupt their political’ opponents’ meetings and speeches, Hitler’s gangs with truncheons, Mussolini’s with castor oil which they forcibly fed to opposition leaders. These tactics had been honed by the Reds before the Revolution, and were exported for use by the Communists in various parts of Europe. To the best of my knowledge there have been no such operations by Trump’s followers, but apparently there are increasing numbers of protests at his meetings. While there have always been some roughhousing and scuffles in American politics, raiding each other’s gatherings has not been traditional, with some exceptions. More usual is getting yourself thrown out of someone else’s meetings, thus getting the publicity rather than the speaker. I expect to see a lot of that in the next few weeks, and a great deal more after the conventions.

...

So far no Castor Oil, and I expect Trump and his followers are too smart to retaliate in kind; but we’ll see. Interesting times indeed. And as you say, they are protesting what he is fighting. I saw a number of “Veterans for Trump” looking rather disgruntled but doing nothing.  The US Army, led by West Pointers, is not the Wehrmacht of the Thirties, nor is the American Legion anything like the Stahlhut. But there are veterans of the Iraqi wars not all that much older than the protesters, and it is rather unwise to taunt them beyond the limits of patience.  Eventually that is going to happen and the result will not be pretty.  Today’s veterans are all veterans of a volunteer army; very few squishes among them.  

Brownshirts In Chicago

H. Beam Piper on how to deal with Brownshirts (Space Viking-1964):

“Put up about fifty combat-cars. Drawn a deadline, and opened fire as soon as the mob crossed it, and kept firing till the survivors turned tail and ran. Then send out more cars, and shot everybody wearing a People’s Watchman uniform, all over town.  Inside forty-eight hours, there’d be no People’s Welfare party and no Zaspar Makann either.”


To those who value power over all else, no act is too depraved and no bodycount is too high.

Kill them all before it's too late.

Thought For The Day

If Hillary Clinton had any decency she wouldn't be Hillary Clinton.

Dealing With Wolves II

In a post concerning another act of extermination I said:

I’ll start with a parable.

A small town was once attacked by a pack of wolves. Some of the inhabitants - - men, women, and children - - were maimed and killed by the wolves.

The men of the town armed themselves and tracked the wolf pack back to its lair and proceeded to kill every member of the pack. And when the guns fell silent the only sound was a whimper emanating from a hollow beneath a tree stump.

In the hollow was a newborn wolf cub. One of the men, a bald fellow who wore glasses and a old black field jacket, shot the wolf cub with his rifle.

Another man asked the bald guy, “it didn’t harm anyone, why did you kill it?”

“It’s a fucking wolf,” the bald guy replied. 

 Mark Urbin has provided this image on his tumbler site:

How does one answer this?

How can there be a rational response to such absolute depravity?

How can there be peace with those whose dearest wish is to murder you and your children?

It is simply impossible. 

Human actions are subject to choice, but to live a Human life one must be aware how to be Human.  A child must know that there is an alternative to being a murderer.  But those children raised under the guidance of Hamas know only murder as their goal in life.  Although they are human in physical form in mind they were made to be monsters programmed to destroy. And in order to live a proper human life we must destroy them.

Destroy or be destroyed, there is no choice for us.

Mental Disconnection

A nice Jewish young lady has reported on some of the noise generated by what we politely call the other side:

Palestinian Supporters: “Israeli forces shot this poor Martyr and killed him. He wasn’t doing anything wrong, he was just killing Jews, those damn occupiers, ISRAHELL IS A TERRORIST STATE!” 

Given that it appears that such persons cannot get out of bed at whatever time of day without divine or diabolical intervention I will have to seriously reconsider my current standing position on the existence of God.

The Political Landscape by Mark Urbin

More Nonsense

The American edition of the Daily Mail site is reporting that the Salt Lake City police have shot a sixteen year old boy who was carrying a broomstick.  Although the race of the boy hasn’t been identified the article does show several photos of police confronting angry black people.

Although it’s easy to jump to a particular conclusion I will point out the following: 

The article did report that officers who were responding to an unrelated call came the teenager and his companion arguing with an adult man.  To a cop or civilian with this situation would appear to be a crime in progress.

The useless idiots who will come out to claim that the boy was unarmed.  But the fact is that a broomstick, with or without the head, can be used to inflict a blunt force trauma with deadly effect.  And though I have been paid to push a broom before my enlistment in the United States Army, I have never had occasion to carry a broomstick without the head.

Contrary to the noise generated by the racial collectivist trash known as Black Lives Matter* the rational thing to do is the say, “yes sir.” and gently put down the broomstick to defuse the situation.  To not do so is a Darwin Award level of stupid.**

* I’ve come to think of this lot as Die Swartzerstrumabteilung.

** Unless you’re a nice Jewish boy in Nazi Germany or a sane White guy on a college campus then the only option is to kill as many of the MF’s as possible.

Moron Of The Day

Mark Urbin has provided us with this brain dropping:

Really?

Does this walking brain death case understand the difference between the acts of nomination and election?

Apparently not.

Up until 1965 the Democrats were the party of corruption and Ku Klux Klan.  As a result most Blacks identified themselves politically as Republicans.

So what happened?

The Democrat occupying the White House, Lyndon Johnson, decided to co-opt the black population into voting for his party.  He and his fellow democrats in Congress used public funds for a set of programs called the Great  Society.  As a result he got his wish for the "N*****s" to vote Democrat.  There has also been five decades of indoctrination into hatred of Republicans in general and Whites in particular.

Given all this one may conclude that the twin in question mat also be a racial collectivist.  In that case I would suggest that  this twit follow the helpful examples provided by other racial collectivists in this You Tube video:

Quotes Of The Day

Mark Urbin brought us this:

There are some people who make a big deal about me not having a “real job” until I was 40, but Karl Marx never worked a day in his life. If you have the right ideas, you shouldn’t have to work.

--Bernie Sanders

And in reply.

If you are part of a society that votes, then do so. There may be no candidates and no measures you want to vote for ... but there are certain to be ones you want to vote against.

--ROBERT A. HEINLEIN, The Notebooks of Lazarus Long

So Anyway

Mark Urbin found this:

Now anyone who's lived in the real world knows these are part of a screwdriver derived tool system.  For someone to actually mistake these for expended rounds of ammunition is beyond belief.  But there are people who are that ignorant and they do vote.

Even if it kills me I will work to establish the Heinlein system as the government of the United States.

So what is the system Heinlein in his novel Starship Troopers?

Heinlein wrote the novel to be the part of the juvenile series of science fiction novels published by Scribners and as a response to pro-Soviet peace activism. In the novel a young man grows from a naive high school student to a junior officer in the army. The narrative of the novel also serves as the framework for a series of lectures about the nature of man, morals, war, and government. The most controversial concept in the novel is that not everyone should be allowed to vote. In the place of universal suffrage Heinlein proposed the idea that the legal status of Citizen, who is a member of the sovereign class of the nation with the authority to vote, has to be earned.

Then as now there were people who clearly didn’t understand the concept of government. Then as now there were those who sought to exploit the ignorance of the mere voter in order to obtain political power. And worse to obtain power without restraint.  Heinlein had proposed the idea of earning the sovereign franchise as a filtering mechanism to prevent obvious fools--such as peace activists--from influencing government.

The idea of the restricted franchise is not new. In the Polis of Athens the franchise was restricted to property owning members of the tribe but there was no legal restraint on the state. As history had shown this led to dysfunctions such as legal murder of Socrates.

It was not enough to restrict the powers of government but to restrict who could actually participate in the process of governing.  In effect to idiot-proof the system.

So is it actually necessary to fully implement the system that Heinlein proposed?

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.

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 a member of the sovereign authority of the nation, and what is expected to happen when the Federal Government enters 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. 

So Anyway

In a sane world Barrack Obama would be hanged for treason, Hillary Clinton would be in prison for numerous felonies, Bernie Sanders would be confined to a mental hospital with a lifetime supply of happy pills, and finally Donald Trump would be the presidential candidate of the Jackass Party.

Another Opinion

I could go on as to why I completely agree with Mr. Cleese but I have things to do.

And thanks to Mark Urbin for the image.

Just A Reminder

More Wolves

I’ll start with this image passed along by Mark Urbin:

This is a call for the act of mass murder.  The fact is that some adherents of what was politely called gun control are in fact the heirs of Adolf Hitler and the National Socialist German Workers Party.  As a result it has become very-very-very-easy to predict what an advocate of public disarmament will say.  All one has to do is take any mouth dropping of Reichsminister Paul Joseph Goebbels and substitute the words Gun Owner for the word Jew.

Yes, it’s that obvious.

After an earlier post where I condemned an advocate of public disarmament a British clergyman posted a response that denounced me for having an actual moral standard.

I responded:

What is it like to not have a human soul?

What is like to be told that there is an evil that is orders of magnitude greater than the kidnapping and murder of one child, an evil that cannot be stopped by a locked door, an evil that can only be stopped by the exercise of deadly force against its perpetrators, and to declare that those who would act to defend themselves, their own families, and their own nation against such an evil are nothing more than vermin?

What is it like to declare that those who oppose the greater evil must be kidnapped and have their souls destroyed and every shred of conscience ripped away with drugs and electric torture?

What is it like to just be another fucking predatory animal? 

I will say this right now--if this lot wants to renounce reason and act as National Socialists then let us treat them as such--hang them from the neck until dead.

Quisling's Grandchildren

I will begin with this image:

 The obvious question is how can someone be tricked into betraying any moral value when they absolutely lack one?

The false prophet Mohammed commanded his followers to commit the acts of rape, robbery, and murder.  The doctrine of Islam commands enslavement and the systematic violation of the rights of man and to act as predatory animals.  Without question the doctrine and practice of Islam is absolutely depraved. 

Given that Human Life is the foundation of all valid moral values then Islam must be absolutely condemned.  But the signatories of this document condemn as immoral those who hold an actual moral standard.

I am hard pressed to respond to this utterly depraved document without the use of barracks language.  But I will say this, Vidkun Quisling was shot for his betrayal of the Norwegian people and we’re going to need an all night firing squad to deal with this bunch.

Motivation

The good news is that Ted Cruz beat out that deal making whim worshiping Delta Hotel with silly hair Donald Trump in the Iowa caucus.  For the next election the Grumpy Old Party needs a serious and sane candidate and not a posturing buffoon.

The Delta Hotel should just go away.

Motivation

Thanks to Mark Urbin for the original image.

The Stupid Is Strong

The Unwanted Blog usually covers aerospace stuff but this morning the owner posted the following:

This is an example of Hegelian reversal.  Here a bit of depravity, the tolerance of forcible rape, is presented as a virtuous act.  And proper prosecution and punishment of rapists is held to be a depraved act.

The fact is that the false prophet Mohamed commanded his followers to commit acts which in a civl society are properly identified and dealt with as capital crimes.  And this bitch make that Quisling fellow look like an upstanding fellow in comparison.

Of course I had to make a demotivator for this:

Update 1025: Mark Urbin has linked to this post.

Not only is this stupid but it's down to the Scientology level of stupid.

Saturday

Mark Urbin brought us this today:

And of course not one of them tipped the wait staff.

Another Asshole

According to the Washington Post there are left wing-Palestinian favoring activists who are whining that the state of Ohio is “infested with Zionism.”

Really?

I thought about this and concluded that if someone said this to me in person my response would be to shout “EICH BIN JUDE, ASSHOLE!”

The fact is that Judaism, with the idea of a parental God, is a fundamental part of our civilization.  Where pagan deities were malevolent or useless at best, God at the core of the Western Monotheist Tradition (WMT)is the creator, teacher, and the positive example that we try to follow in our own lives. 

So when someone attacks Jews they are attacking all of us.

And Mark Urbin was kind enough to post this:

The Man Who Fell To Earth

Once upon a time ago before I read any work by Ayn Rand I saw The Man Who Fell To Earth starring David Bowie. I didn’t enjoy sitting through it and the one scene that stuck with me depicted a nihilist denouncing innovation. Having never read a word of real philosophy at the time I merely saw the character as being stupid.

After the recent death of Mr. Bowie a local film society held a showing of the film. I won’t claim the excuse of brain damage in deciding to see it. I had actually forgot how truly awful it was.

It wasn’t just the fact that the director was a no talent hack with delusions of cleverness.

Nor was it his insistence on using Manhattan skyscrapers as an anatomical reference along with inserting two pointless scenes that stop just short of actual pornography.

No.

Every second of the film was an expression of the hatred of human life and after only half an hour I walked out.

Remember the nihilist? When I originally saw the film I could not understand how any character could be so stupid. I now understand that in denouncing any improvement in the tools used by man he was denying the value of human life.

Anniversaries

On this day thirty years ago the space shuttle Challenger was accidentally destroyed during launch with all seven souls aboard.

Also on this day the Church of Scientology made their official announcement that L. Ron Hubbard had died.  In doing so they put forth a nonsense story that their founder had dropped his body and no mention was made of the fact that he had suffered a stroke a week before.*  The true believers were then shocked to discover that no one outside the cult gave a damn about that useless malingering REMF** piece of excrement.  They were particularly upset everyone was more concerned about the deaths of seven Wogs*** than with the passing of the most important being on the planet.****


* I personally favor the pillow over the face as the actual cause of death.
** Rear Echelon Mother F***er.
*** Wog is the Scientologist term for a non-member and the functional equivalent of the N-word.
**** Hitler used to think of himself that way too.

An Answer

In a comment on The Underground Bunker, a site critical of Scientology, I compared the credibility of the CoS with the famous press organ of the Soviet State:

When the Soviet era edition of Pravda (Truth) reported that Yuri Gagarin had orbited the Earth aboard Vostok 1 it was a rare instance their publishing a fact. The CoS can't even do that.

Someone then asked a question:

Please forgive me, I've wanted to ask you this for ages. Why do you go on and on about the Soviet Union so much? It ended 25 years ago, you know.

I answered:

Why does Bullwinkle the Moose keep trying to pull a rabbit out of the hat?

In spite of clear evidence that it's toxic some people continue to believe in enforced economic equality which was the doctrine that served as the foundation of the Soviet state. And because the Soviet state enforced a falsehood it had to act in an adversarial fashion with respect to Humanity in General. Like the Church of Scientology the Soviet State must lie to everyone.

The continued fail of a cartoon character to perform a magic trick is funny.  The suffering that will be inflicted by the insane Senator Sanders and his followers is nothing short of appalling.  And most importantly it is absolutely preventable.

Comment

Atlas Shrugged and Starship Troopers were written as works of fiction.  But now they appear in some respects to works of nonfiction.

Of the two leading candidates of the insane party the first makes President Nixon look like an honest guy.  And the other makes Bulwinkle the Moose look like an intelligent being.

Unfortunately the lead candidate of the sane party is a pragmatic narcissistic demagogue, which is the last thing we need after the systematic malice of the Big Zero.

At this point I'm fully in favor of a military coup.

Anniversary

On this day a completely useless waste of mass and energy passed on.

I know it’s not original but I had to do it, so here’s the Dead Prophet Sketch.


The cast:  Tom Cruise, a short guy.  David Miscavige, a really short guy.


Tom Cruise enters the shop pushing a large leather chair with dead old man on it.

TC: Hello, I want to complain.

(Miscavige doesn’t respond.)

TC: Hello, Miss?

DM: What do you mean "miss"?

TC: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!

DM: We're closing for lunch.

TC: Never mind that! I’m here to complain about this prophet that I purchased about half an hour ago from this shop.

DM: Oh yes, the, uh, the Nebraska Red. What's, uh...What's wrong with him?

TC: He's dead, that's what's wrong with him!

DM: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.

TC: Look, I know a dead prophet when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.

DM: No, no, he's not dead, he's, he's resting! Remarkable prophet, isn't, it? Beautiful haircut!

TC: But he's stone dead.

DM: Nononono, no, no! He's resting!

TC: All right then, if he's resting, I'll wake him up! (shouting at the chair) 'Hello, Ronnie! I've got some lovely cash for you to grab if you show...

(Miscavige hits the chair)

DM: There, he moved!

TC: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the chair!

DM: I never!!

TC: Yes, you did!

Owner: I never, never did anything...

TC: (yelling and hitting the chair repeatedly) HELLO RONNIE!!!!! Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call!

(Takes Hubbard out of the chair and thumps his head on the counter. Stands him up and watches him fall to the floor.)

TC: Now that's what I call a dead prophet.

DM: No, no.....No, he's stunned!

TC: STUNNED?!?

DM: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was waking up! Nebraska Reds stun easily, sir.

TC: Now look... I've definitely had enough of this. That prophet clearly deceased, and when I bought him not half an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it being tired and shagged out following a prolonged lecture.

DM: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the wheat fields.

TC: PINING for the WHEAT FIELDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?  And why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got him home?

DM: Nebraska Reds prefer to lay on the back! Remarkable prophet, isn’t he? Lovely haircut!

TC: Look, I took the liberty of examining that senator when I got him home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting in his chair in the first place was that he had been NAILED there.

(pause)

DM: Well, of course he was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed him down, he would have stood up and gone VOOM!

TC: "VOOM"?!? Sir, this man wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through him! He's totally demised!

DM: No, no! He's pining!

TC: He's not pining! He’s passed on! This prophet is no more! He has ceased to be! He’s expired and gone to meet his maker! He’s a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the chair he'd be pushing up the daisies! His metabolic processes are now history! He’s off the twig! He’s kicked the bucket, He’s shuffled off his mortal coil and moved on to Target Two!! THIS IS AN EX-PROPHET!!

(pause)

DM: Well, I'd better replace him, then. (he takes a quick peek behind the counter) Sorry sir, I've had a look 'round the back of the shop we're out of prophets.

TC: I see. I see, I get the picture.

DM: I got a slug.

(pause)

TC: Does it talk?

DM: Nnnnot really.

TC: WELL IT'S NOT A REPLACEMENT, IS IT?!!???!!?

DM: N-no, I guess not. (gets ashamed, looks at his feet)

TC: Well?

DM: It leaves a trail of slime.

TC: All right.

Quotes Of The Day

From today's HBL List:

Actually, I am incapable of error. Wait, that's mistaken.

--Harry Binswanger, PhD

And:

Clausewitz defined war as "an act of violence intended to compel our opponent to fulfill our will"

In demanding absolute submission Mohammed had essentially declared war on Mankind. Therefore those who follow his command to make war on those who properly refuse to submit are in effect enemy combatants and should be identified and dealt with as such. Under the customs of warfare and subsequent legislation assault on a civilian is a serious offense with murder and rape being treated as capital crimes.

Humanity is at war with Islam. Let's treat it as such.

--Some Blogger    

And finally:

From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.

--Karl Marx

Socialism is the doctrine that man has no right to exist for his own sake, that his life and his work do not belong to him, but belong to society, that the only justification of his existence is his service to society, and that society may dispose of him in any way it pleases for the sake of whatever it deems to be its own tribal, collective good.

Thought For The Day

I'm sometimes astounded by the sheer idiocy of the common liberal.

For example on an alternate history board I'm posting a bit of amateur fiction and some liberal posts a really stupid statement as a reply:

Question. Is Stone simply lying or is her background one of ardent conservatism/reactionism? Communism, like laissez faire capitalism, fascism and other extreme ideologies are responsible for a lot of evil and destruction but to automatically brand all forms of socialism as evil and ignore other creeds that cause similar problems suggests a very bigoted viewpoint.

Note this is coming from a liberal. I recognise even moderate social democracy as flawed when it assumes automatic and unchanging rules apply and prefer a more balanced mix of forces as the best basis for stable economic and social develop.

This twit makes no distinction between opposites and can't see the impossibility of compromise between life and death.

I responded:

I decline to enter into a flame war.

Go away.

(Oh, Evelyn is a gender neutral name and I described the character as being a young man.)

Yes, this twit failed to see that a particular character was in fact a man.  And having been expelled from at least two forums for flaming I am now adverse in entering a flame war.

So how does the twit respond?

I think that answers my question.  Since you seem to be saying your a bigot I will assume the story has no merit.  Bye.

Let's see?  I object to despotism, death, and destruction, therefore I'm some kind of evil being?

Quisling Of The Day

Thanks to Mark Urbin for the image.

This woman is old enough to remember the conquest and occupation of her nation by the Third Reich.  There is absolutely no excuse for her collaboration with the current conquerors of Europe under the banner of Islam.  I wouldn't doubt for a second that this traitor would also support a repeat of The Holocaust as an adaptation to the "multicultural society" as well.

Before the war Norway had banned the death penalty but suspended the ban to dispose of the original Quisling.

It's time to suspend the ban again.

Encouragement

Voltaire in his novel Candide has the protagonist witness the execution of John Byng, a British admiral for losing a battle, and is told that "in this country, it is good to kill an admiral from time to time, in order to encourage the others".

Now, should members of the executive, legislative, and judicial, branches of government, especially the sitting president, be encouraged to comply with The Constitution?

HELL YES.

For the record I'm in favor of preemptive actions to terminate the North Korean and Iranian nuclear weapons programs.

The Norks should consider themselves fortunate that they still exist.  I still remember when the Soviets collapsed at the end of the Final War.  The Norks suddenly found themselves without a sponsor and protector.  And worse, they were between 500 million angry Chinamen and a hard place.

Let’s just say it wasn’t pretty and leave it at that.

Excerpt

From the novel:

Once he was away from Minneapolis the motorcycle functioned perfectly and the ride west went without interruption.  But he made a stop in Colorado.

In his prior life there was a an outcrop of rock on public land.  It was here that members of the local resistance, basically a bunch of school kids who escaped town when the Soviets dropped in, would meet between actions.  And in the end only two members of this band would survive the Final War.

After the war the rock was made the center of a national monument with a road for the tourists and an eternally lit flag.

Here and now there was no road or a flag post.  Although the Triumph was built for the road she crossed the trackless land without complaint and it was nearly sunset when he arrived.

That night he slept under the stars.  It was a bit past midnight and when he woke up the sky was clear.  The Milky Way crossed it from horizon to horizon.

Stone stood and looked up.  Here he stood at the shore of the Universe with nothing between him and anyone else out there.

Including God.

Now he looked up and spoke to God.

“Why?”

Why was I sent back in time?

“Why?”

The Future

I have no idea who she is but thanks to Mark Urbin for the image.

Communism In Action

Year Zero In  Cambodia.

I won't try to come up with a smart ass comment.

The Future

Angela Cartwright as Penny Robinson in the original Lost In Space television series on CBS.

Clam Up!

Oh no!  Another Scientology motivator!

Seriously, these idiots have absolutely no idea how stupid they look.

Merry Christmas

So what is Christmas?

It is commonly held to be the celebration of a birth.

But there’s something more to Christmas and it is the idea that God would come to us as a person to speak to us as people. No priests as intermediaries or a light show miracle--just a conversation on a personal basis.

Some Christians don’t understand this.

Merry Christmas.

Motivation

Dealing With Childen

Thanks again to Mark Urbin for this image:

Back during the Vietnam War there were Marxists who would set fire to buildings and then cut the hoses with an axe when the firefighters showed up to fight the fire.  But now the grandchildren of those same Marxists whine about their feelings being hurt by any statement of the truth.

Too bad, bitches.

These children* wouldn't last ten seconds in infantry basic training at Fort Benning.  And that's a good thing because I absolutely wouldn't trust any of these utterly pathetic wastes of matter and energy on any field of battle with my life**  Seriously, if Comrade Stalin was still around these virtual morons would hand the entire planet over to him right now.

During the summer of 1976 I read a book and changed the way I saw myself and other people.

Robert A. Heinlein in his novel STARSHIP TROOPERS put forth the radical idea that adulthood was not only a physical state but a distinctly moral one as well.  And while physical maturity was obvious to an objective observer the moral state was not.  Given that the mentally and morally immature were not able to rationally perform the duties of citizenship he proposed to establish a system for sorting out the able from the unable.  As it's impossible to compel moral maturity what's required is voluntary system to separate functional citizens from the dysfunctional losers.  While Heinlein did present his system of Federal Service in altruistic terms it does allow the separation of moral dead weights, such as the losers above, from mentally and morally active people.


* And that's an insult to children.

** Furthermore the slave collar on one at the right is not a sign of rebellion but a clear sign of submission to a master and shooting both of them is an absolute waste of ammunition.

Idiot Of The day

During my morning walk I came upon a house with a yard sign for Bernie Sanders and a weathered sign for the late DFL martyr Paul Wellstone (!) in the windows of the front porch.

What can I say?

The leading presidential candidates for the other party are a crone who makes Richard Nixon look like a honest guy and a senile old man who has completely ignored the political history of the last century.  And their supporters stand as the most idiotic, ignorant, and insane people in this nation.  And that's assuming that they actually exist.

They call themselves the Democratic Party.

Why is that?

Democracy is the form of state that claims unlimited power from a mandate from an unlimited mess.

For those who desire absolute power Democracy is an ideal form of the state.

But in reality authority in any area is based on actual knowledge in that field.  Thus political authority must be based on knowledge in the field of politics.   But in the democratic form of the state the voter is not required to know anything on the subject of ethics, or politics, or in the case of Chicago to actually exist.

So why should we as Americans be subject to the will of Democrats?

WE SHOULD NOT.

Democrats in general have shown that they are not at all concerned about the actual facts of reality,   Nor are they concerned about the consequences of their actions.  That we will suffer and die as a result of their actions means absolutely nothing to them.

So why should we submit to them, let alone allow them to exist?

WE SHOULD NOT AT ALL.

 What are your questions?

Quote Of The Day

Mike Rinder, who was in the Church of Scientology but got better, had this to say:

Seems to me that my spiritual guidance is simply to look for yourself. Be your own counsel. Never seek approval from others. Do what you believe is right.

Fact Of Reality

The people who imposed Prohibition on this nation truly believed that outlawing the possession and consumption of alcohol would bring about the end of drunkenness and no evidence to the contrary would ever change their beliefs. They were absolutely wrong and good people died for their sins.

The intellectual and moral successors to the Prohibitionists ignore the facts about criminal and terrorist actions and now insist on imposing their fantasies on us by force without regard to the actual deaths and other negative effects that will be inflicted on us.  In practical effect innocent people will die so they can enjoy a positive feeling about themselves.  If this isn't willful depravity then what what is?

Thanks to Mark Urbin for the image.

Another Rant

Mark Urbin has brought us these images:

Safe space...the final refuge of the willfully irrational.

There was a time when physical growth was the indication of adulthood and this perception was generally correct.  But in adulthood is a state of mind that in the so-called Progressive era has been negated through the corruption of the educational process.  Instead of seeing people and things as they are those indoctrinated in Progressive nonsense indulge in fantasies and make decisions based solely on falsehoods.  

Here an outright lunatic is denouncing sane people for not buying the pure nonsense emitted by the propagandists. 

The facts are that no two people are identically productive and there will be a difference in economic effect.  Weather has been and will continue to be driven by natural causes and is completely out of Human control.  And the species Homo Sapiens in the political context must be seen as a single race--the idea of morally and politically distinctive races was a fundamental cause of the lethal nightmare of the last century.

Yet the believers in these and other falsehoods demand that we submit to their insanity.

Really?

 Not only No but Hell No.

Knowledge is the foundation of Authority in every field of life and Politics is no exception.  Yet the deceived, the willfully ignorant, and the outright insane demand that we remain silent and submit to their nonsense without question, never mind the obviously lethal effects.  The truth means nothing to them, only their feelings, and never mind the bodycount. 

The fact is they know nothing and thus have no authority.  We are under no obligation to submit to them and if they can't live with that then they won't.

What are your questions on this rant? 

  

Overnight News

Last night someone drove a car into the Scientology Org in Austin, Texas.

Okay...

Update 1310:

Sewage Alert

I just saw the trailer for the newest Star Trek movie on You Tube and it sucks.

Groan Again!

Mark Urbin has passed this along to us:

Someone is seriously this dumb?

And we allow them to vote?

Do I have to lecture on the practicality of semi-automatic  versus selective fire weapons?  Or the sheer idiocy of deliberately damaging any component of a weapon?

The absolute and unpleasant fact of reality is that a serious fraction of our so-called fellow citizens don't think.  They have been indoctrinated by our so-called education system to hold feelings as superior to facts and to pursue emotional states over rational thought.

It's not that they are stupid or ignorant--it's worse--they are willfully insane. 

And because they are uneducated there is no understanding that  negative actions have negative consequences.  In this case that the to enact an invalid law--such as the disarmament of citizens--will cause the deaths of actually innocent people.  And as during the Century of Death* there will be no shortage of those who are willing to wrongfully run up a bodycount.

And this all to allow a bunch of damned fools to feel good about themselves without regard to the consequences.  To feel superior about themselves while standing on a pile of innocent victims.


We must recognize that warm body Democracy**  does not work.  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.

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 a member of the sovereign authority of the nation, and what is expected to happen when the Federal Government enters 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.

*My term for the last century with the dominance of toxic ideologies.

**Or the system of no body Democracy as practiced in Chicago and other strongholds of the Democratic Party..

Dumb Dumb Dumb

Actually that's an insult to dumb people.

Mark Urbin has been kind enough to pass this along:

Seriously?

Here in Minnesota anyone regardless of their criminal history can buy books or groceries without a permit.  The purchase of any firearm requires a state issued permit and if you have a criminal background forget it.

The Big Zero had again demonstrated that he is mentally disconnected from reality should be removed from office as soon as possible.

UPDATE 1345:

As to how we got into this mess i shall quote from a work in progress:

“Well let’s step back and look at the concept of Democracy.  On the most basic level Democracy is a political system without a clear limit on the exercised powers of the state or who may participate in it.  This has led some so-called progressive states, such as East Germany, North Korea, and what’s left of Vietnam, to label themselves as democracies.  As to political participation in a democracy any warm body, without regard to actual knowledge or even sanity, may do so.  And in places like Chicago even the requirement of physical existence, let alone the actual state of life, is completely waved.”

Birthday

On this day in 1960 someone was born.  There were no signs and portents in the sky and the most important thing to happen on that day was a performance by a garage band from Liverpool in a West German strip joint.

In other news Mark Urbin has posted this on his Tumbr site:

To elaborate: We The People are the sovereign authority of the United States and the federal government was created to serve us.  The Democrats, from Woodrow Wilson to the present occupant of the White House has rejected our authority and have sought to impose their will upon us.   Life is the most fundamental moral value and those who would diminish or destroy our lives are the enemy.

Those who walk the path of power are destructive and have to be destroyed--there is simply no alternative.

Question

I actually searched for images from Zardoz but decided to go with this instead.

Anninverary

On this day in 1941 the Imperial Japanese Navy did something really, really, really stupid.

I'm Repeating Myself Again

Thanks to Mark Urbin for this image:

A year and a half ago I posted the following rant:

Yes, I am repeating myself.

The  Left cheers as every new manifestation of barbarism rises and slaughters good people and innocent children. The chattering classes willingly support and serve the enemies of mankind and will viciously slander and condemn those who dare to raise a hand in defense of the defenseless. They sit on their fat asses in progressive coffee houses and cook up paranoid conspiracy theories about how Christian Conservatives are planning to exterminate their own particular and pathetic social fringe group.

But if the stupid conspiracy theories of the Left were true they would all be dead.

Let’s see -- if rational people were to treat the Left the way that Great Comrade Stalin treated anyone he suspected of being an opponent let alone someone who was an actual opponent -- would any of these pathetic lunatics still be breathing?  Let alone continuing to rant like a mob of mentally disconnected lunatics who are off their medications?

No, I wouldn't think so.

If Conservatives dealt with the adherents of Modern Liberalism the way the Left has dealt with humans in general whenever the Left has obtained unrestrained power, there wouldn't be any Liberals left standing. Of the universities and the urban centers of Liberalism there would be nothing left but smoking ruins, and there would mass graves from coast to coast.

We need to face the fact that the present day Left, like the unschooled barbarians who plagued civilization before them, are essentially parasites. If the Huns or the Mongols were to take "no" for an answer to their demand for food and other material goods they would die very quickly. Control of the productive population is essential for their survival and well being. Compulsion, taking things and persons by force, is inherently necessary to the parasite manner of existence. Those who resisted the parasites had to be killed as an object lesson for others.

The Left, our present-day literate post-Marxist barbarians, not only need material support they also need spiritual support as well. They need to feel that their victims are not only submitting to them today but will do so tomorrow as well.

Barbarian chieftains and tribal witch-doctors demanded degrading and often dangerous acts of worship from their subjects, up to and including human sacrifice, in order to assure themselves that they would still have a roof (or a tent) over their heads and food to eat the next day. Those refused to obey were worked over by the goon squad or simply killed.

In the classrooms, editorial offices, and coffee shops of the Left the demand is for unquestioned agreement without regard to the actual facts of reality. The self-styled intellectuals of the Left are the first to demand “speech codes” and other forms of censorship lest they be identified as frauds and poseurs and subsequently bounced out of their comfortable ivory towers, no longer insulated from a real world that demands real thought and real labor.

The Left, being dependent upon others for their sustenance, must stand in opposition to the society of rational consent and openly support systems of compulsion, be it various species of Socialism or the witch-doctor rule of Islam, because to do otherwise is to condemn themselves to death.

If the Left would just die it would be nice.

 I know, I'm not a nice guy, and it couldn't happen soon enough.

Sad Anniversary

On this day twenty years ago Lisa McPherson, a devoted member of the Church of Scientology, died under the most appalling of circumstances.

Tony Ortega at the Underground Bunker has given us an account of her final day of life.

All I can say that there is absolutely no excuse for what was done to her--none.

Motivation

Someone at Samizdata came up with this.

Comment

A few minutes ago I posted this in the comments section of The Underground Bunker:

A few minutes ago as I write this an ignorant narcissist posted the following on this otherwise sane blog:

"Just shows how many fucked up people are right here in the USA. Who needs cults like ISIS when we have our American Taliban, gun nuts, Trump supporters, Planned Parenthood bombers/shooters, young boys all full of murderous fantasies, etc. Most of the above, lest I forget, are white Americans. The era of Timothy McVeighs has arrived. Everyone load up on weapons this holiday season. That will keep us all safe."

I could say a number of things about this post but I would be missing the point.  Not only is this individual a collectivist he is a racial collectivist as well. He defines a person by their race and imparts beliefs and actions on them solely on that basis.

Racial characteristics are not chosen and therefore irrelevant to human actions. What is subject to choice is a person’s beliefs and the actions derived from those beliefs. And for the record McVeigh himself was a racial collectivist who rejected human rights and human reason. As a result he rejected human reality. The actual Patriot Movement at that time fully rejected McVeigh, his beliefs, and his actions. This rejection was based on the actual moral values that were actually chosen.

And speaking of language the words “gun nut” is a pejorative term used to dehumanize a firearms owner and justify lethal acts of state violence against them.

This poster apparently feels good about his own murderous fantasies. Given what Hubbard wrote in his work the Science of Survival he should feel right at home in the Church of Scientology.

Update 0115:

According to the Daily Mail the San Bernardino shooting appears to be another case of the Sudden Jihad Syndrome.  Of course this won't stop The Big Zero and those who orally gratify him from demanding the systematic disarming of the citizens of United States and the subsequent death toll.

Update 0400:

Someone on the Underground Bunker posted a disagreement and stated that I missed the sarcasm.

I replied:

I have to disagree with you there. When anyone calls me, a Caucasian American gun owner, a murderer I take it seriously. When someone denies my very humanity I take it very seriously. Dehumanization of a specific population is historically a necessary step preceding the act of mass murder.

Am I paranoid? Perhaps I am. But I would rather be a live paranoid than a dead victim.
