Exodus!
14 July 20 From a friend and student in western CO: “Every piece of available real estate, from Aspen to Glenwood Spgs, has sold in the last month to scared people frantically trying to escape Democrat mayors, city councils, and the Democrat-promoted terrorism by their murderous proxies, ANTIFA and BLM! We’re seeing a massive, forlorn […]
Symptoms!
10 July 20 More Symptoms: Minneapolis LEOs, who witnessed one of their own police precincts abandoned by their spineless mayor to a raging mob, are now popping “blue parachutes” and bailing-out of their burning city. They’re filing disability claims by the hundreds! Homes in Minneapolis are selling cheap! This ominous trend is spreading nationwide. We’re […]
Glorious Histoiry!
9 July 20 Our Glorious History, and Occasional Dead-Ends! President Theodore Roosevelt in1904 nixed the idea of a “cleaning-rod/bayonet” combination for the new bolt-action rifle (1903 Springfield) that was replacing the Krag-Jorgensen, so the Ordinance Board instead went with a long bayonet/knife, which endured through the end of the Korean War! A shovel-like “bolo/bayonet,” which […]
Little Choice!
6 July 20 “Democracies have been found incompatible with personal security and rights of property; and in general been as short in their lives as they’ve been violent in their deaths.” James Madison A Reminder: American police are not required by law to specifically “protect” any particular individual, in any particular circumstance (Warren v District […]
“Sustainable” Poverty!
5 July 20 Even More Dangerous! In Philadelphia, PA today, rioters closed I676, both directions, in the downtown area, backing-up traffic for miles/hours. At least one PPD Officer, who tried to break-up this dangerous situation with department-issued teargas, has been fired on the spot. The Chief of police and mayor have both since publicly apologized, […]
Independence Day 2020!
4 July 20 Liberal/elitist/Democrat/Communists, while cynically enjoying their cushy life in the USA, are deliberately not celebrating our nation’s Independence Day in 2020, because to celebrate 244 years that this great nation has blessed all of humankind is, they smugly insist, “racist!” Rather, while dolefully sitting in comfortable surroundings and with Remy-Martin cocktail in hand, […]
Wake-up, American Police!
2 July 20 The “Future” of Policing in the USA, as currently being pushed by Bidenistas and other Democrat/Communists: The “Minneapolis PD” is officially morphing into the “Minneapolis Department of Community Safety & Violence Prevention,” Call it “DCSVP,” for short! This evolutionary scenario will play-out in nearly every metro area with a communist mayor (which […]
No Protection! No service!
1 July 20 This weekend will be exciting! From a friend and student: “Yesterday evening, I was northbound on I-25 through the central part of Colorado Springs. As I approached the Bijou exit, there was a police vehicle in the left lane, parked at a 45 degree angle, with his emergency lights on, and with […]
Man Exploits Man!
1 July 20 The “Party Line” “All previous Communist states failed, because the USA suppressed them economically, socially, militarily, and politically. There is nothing inherently wrong with Communism! Communism does not continuously fail, because the system is intellectually flawed, in concept nor execution. It would have worked wonderfully if we ‘greedy western capitalists’ had given […]
Communist Revolutions!
30 June 20 “Pacifism is merely cowardice, masquerading as ‘piety’” Farnam NYPD is on the ropes. Ditto for Chicago PD, Atlanta, Baltimore, Seattle. All have mayors who are openly Communists and who naturally do not want their police interfering with ANTIFA/BLM violence! NYC’s mayor wants to cut a billion dollars from NYPD’s budget, which will […]
Look around you!
28 June 20 “The ‘right to be heard’ does not imply a ‘right’ to be taken seriously.” Hubert Humphrey From a friend in South Africa: “The Sharpeville Massacre (21 Mar 60) was our ‘George-Floyd Moment.’ After that, our nation was progressively taken-over by Communists/anarchists. Many argued for less radical ‘reforms,’ but we were swept aside. […]
New Records!
22 June 20 “NYC, Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, LA, SF, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Detroit, Seattle, et al were at one time known among savvy travelers as ‘gilded sewers.’ Now, they’re all just ‘sewers!’ ‘Gilding,’ along with the balance of pretenses, is long-gone!” Feldman Chicago is, once again, “setting records,” but not the kind they wanted! 102 people […]
Bad behavior, not ethnicity, is the problem!
21 June 20 “Rich and strong nations, learned in the arts, have brusquely passed away, to be forgotten, so that no memory of them remains.” H Rider Haggard Atlanta’s (former) police chief precipitously fired both officers involved in the fatal OIS of 13 June 20 (Saturday), within hours of the incident, before any species of […]
Trends!
18 June 20 Trends! Gun retailers I see regularly tell me shotguns, particularly pump-guns, are experiencing a renaissance! Remington 870s, Mossberg 500/590s, Stoeger P3000s, and particularly Mossberg’s “Maverick 88″ go out the door within hours, sometimes minutes, of arrival! Simultaneously, high-grade “sporting” shotguns gather dust. Price-point for many long-gun buyers is 1k. Below that, guns […]
The Mob!
17 June 20 “The mob is the most ruthless of tyrants” Friedrich Nietzsche The Mob Rules! The MVSN (“Milizia Volontaria per la Sicurezza Nazionale”) was Benito Mussolini’s “provisional wing.” They were otherwise known as “Blackshirts,” and they terrorized the Italian Peninsula from the 1920s through the end of WWII. They murdered, destroyed property, and otherwise […]
“Who protests is an enemy. Who opposes is a corpse.” Pol Pot
15 June 20 “I respectfully decline the invitation to join your hallucination.” Scott Adams In the wake of current events, several long-professed pretenses are finally falling away. In this country we have at least made of pretense of justice and protection for all, with individual rights and unlimited opportunity extended to everyone, special privileges extended […]
“Silence is Violence!:”
13 June 20 Getting Worse! “Silence is Violence” is now the mantra of rioters in MN and WA. When you remain silent, or fail to enthusiastically endorse their Communist Manifesto, you are deserving of physical violence directed against you, and rioters know that no one will protect you! It is now common practice for BLM […]
Demands!
13 June 20 “Keep people from their history, and they are easily controlled.” Karl Marx Demands: Demands of Communist-inspired rioters have just begun! They’re destroying our history, destroying our monuments, promoting physical violence against all who voice opposition, all to the wild cheers of the DNC and their media lackeys. Next, they’ll demand street-names, park […]
