Joe The Elf

 I watched the video clips of Joe Biden on his G7 and NATO tour through Europe last night, and I was ashamed that this is the man now representing America to the world. 

No, I am not embarrassed. Biden's performance was much worse than embarrassing. It was shameful. 

America's back?  

Yeah, we are back alright.  

Back to being the cash cow and the door mat to the rest of the world. And the rest of the world knows it. And that was shown on each of their faces, once they were in the presence of the feeble and mentally dull president of the US. 

Angela Merkle could be seen walking in front of Biden? Still smirking. 

As a matter of fact? From Merkle to Macron? They all looked like they were leading a kindergarten class on a field trip with Buddy the Elf. 

Even the Queen of England could be seen trailing the procession with her head down. Obviously grieving the process of even having to be there. 

I watched the round table meeting of the G7, where Boris Johnson of the UK, took the lead and immediately had to remind Biden, that he had already introduced the president of South Africa. 

Much to the chagrin of all present. Again? Merkle and Macron were seen smirking. 

During which time, Boris Johnson is seen extending his left arm backward twice to Biden, who was seated on his left. Both times in a sweeping push back gesture of dismissal. 

As if to say shush! The adults are speaking. 

And then to see Biden admitting that his appearances with the media are choreographed and pre-approved by his "staff."      

And then admitting to reporters, that if he goes off script? He gets in trouble with his staff. 

So ask yourself this question. 

How can the most powerful man on the planet? The president of the United States? Get in trouble with his subordinates? Unless they are not his subordinates. Unless he is subordinate to them.  

Think about that for a minute. 

Then get you head wrapped around Biden telling the media that he is going to give Putin the what for, when he meets with him later today. 

Of course that meeting will be in private. Absent any post conference joint press conference. 

Because Biden's "staff?" Doesn't want to run the risk of Biden coming across as the light weight and absent minded fool that he truly is.  

Yes? Vladimir Putin? 

Will hand Joe Biden his ass when they meet in private today. Count on it. Although that fact will never be reported on or admitted to by American media.   

Look for those details from the British media. 

And afterwards?  The American media will tell the American dupes? How Biden demonstrated much needed calm and leadership. 

In contrast to the bad orange man. 

They will tell the American people, how Biden showed Putin a thing or two. 

And they will lament how Biden having shared his Corn Pop story with Putin? 

Putin cowered. 

They will tell us that Putin immediately acquiesced to everything that Biden wanted. Which wasn't much of anything.  

However, Putin obviously didn't want to become another scalp on the belt of the Corn Pop slayer. 

And? Other than for the media to tell Putin's side of the story, as it being simply a nice meeting? Don't expect anything beyond from American media. 

Am I embarrassed? No. 

Why be embarrassed by the known qualities of an ass clown. Especially someone that you know, is going to make an ass of himself. 

So no. I am not embarrassed for America. I am angry. And I am

Ashamed.  And every other American who saw that classless shitshow of a clown circus?  Should be ashamed also.

Lies And Damn Lies. The American Media

 Just finished reading an article, citing the untruthfulness of American journalism and those globally, like Al Jazera, who exist to vilify Israel and America. 

And when their lies are revealed as lies? No one seems to notice. And worse? No one seems to care. 

The author of the article lamented the days of truthful journalism, and harkened back to the days of Walter Cronkite. 

Born in the 1950's? I have more than rhetorical and anecdotal memories of Cronkite. 

Having lived through his era and that of David Brinkley? I remember all too well, how they both covered the war in Vietnam

Cronkite more so than Brinkley. 

Both were the original television architects of news reporting for the boob box media of the time. With Cronkite leading the parade. 

And in my opinion, and in the opinion of many others my age and older?  We remember how Cronkite wrapped himself in his nightly coverage of the daily death toll of Americans in Vietnam. 

Cronkite shaped America's opinion of the war, by reading nightly body counts.  Then  showing video clips of the body bags and the medi-vac helicopters carrying the American dead and wounded. 

Cronkite was also the lead in cementing the idea that America had lost the bombing campaign of Hanoi and the Tet offensive. When in fact the exact opposite was true. 

General Giap admitted after the war, that America's reluctance to continue bombing Hanoi and the north, combined with the aid of American opinion being formulated by American media? Had led to Vietnam's victory and America's defeat. 

Read

General Vo Nguyen Giap was the commander in chief of the communist armed forces during two of his country's most difficult conflicts—the first against Vietnam's colonial masters, the French, and the second against the most powerful nation on earth, the United States. After long and bloody conflicts, he defeated both Western powers and their Vietnamese allies, forever changing modern warfare. In Giap, military historian James A. Warren dives deep into the conflict to bring to life a revolutionary general and reveal the groundbreaking strategies that defeated world powers against incredible odds. Synthesizing ideas and tactics from an extraordinary range of sources, Giap was one of the first to realize that war is more than a series of battles between two armies and that victory can be won through the strength of a society's social fabric. As America's wars in the Middle East rage on, this is an important and timely look at a man who was a master at defeating his enemies even as they thought they were winning.

And Giap's primary means of defeating America? Was the American media. Led by Walter Cronkite. 

Edward R. Murrow? Was the last genuine American journalist. 

And then as now, the number one effort of American media, is and has been to demonize and defeat this nation. 

A Pox on them all. :thinking:

So Who Is Responsible For Gun Violence in America Today

So. What is causing "the uptick in gun violence in America today?" Got any clues?  I do. 

And? That question seems to be the big question on the lips of many of these socalled mayors, police chiefs, the media and social academics across America today. 

And the answers to that question are being provided, by those who are attempting to drive a political agenda, more so than to find any realistic solution. 

Absent any real understanding of the problem, or any real concern for that matter, as to what is really happening and why. Their one intent is to drive the politics of power and control over the people. 

As for the answers and the solutions? To gun violence in America?

I will be glad to explain to any of them? In no uncertain terms? That the answers to these questions are a plain as the nose on their face. 

Yet they continue to deny them and flee from the truth. 

They simply do not want to admit to the truth. Because

To do so? Would explode and destroy the rest of their sociologist socialism, and its non stop streaming of socialist bullshit into the minds of Americans. 

As the old country comedian Jerry Clower surmised thirty five years ago? When confronted by a head line in the New Your Times?

"Why Can't Johnny Read?"

Clower gave all of the reasons why Johnny couldn't read, but ended with one simple and prescient truth. Lack of desire for achievement , lack of goals, lack of parenting. 

Clower put it plain and simple. 

"Johnny can't read? Because Johnny don't want too! And nobody is making him!"

And the one thing Jerry Clower emphasised? Was that the reason American children were failing in schools? Had absolutely nothing to do with lack of opportunity. 

And he was right. 

It has been over thirty five years ago since Jerry Clower's truth's were spoken. And there have been many who have followed him, attempting to shine light into the same dark places of American education and culture. 

The dark places where the truth exists, covered over with the lies.  

And the only thing that has changed since then? Is that the reality of Jerry Clower's  statement has only gotten worse. 

Johnny can't read? Because Johnny don't want too. And nobody is making him. 

And you can extrapolate that one prescient reality, out across the entire spectrum of the present societal problems in America today.  And the answer comes back the same every time. 

We have literally spent billions on education in America on education In the last forty years. 

K thru 12 daycare and meal programs . We put computers in every class room, then we issued ipads to most every student. And what have we seen in return for those investments?  

Nothing but the steady decline in test scores and those graduating highshool? We are graduating those who not only have no abilities at a college level?  But those that can barely function in day to day life. 

How many stories of cashiers have you heard of and personally experienced? From burger restaurants to clothing stores to you name it?  Where those employes there? Cannot even make simple change for a purchase in cash. Absent a computerized cash register  doing the math for them.  

And these are the same people demanding $15 an hour and a so called livable wage. Yet they have no skills to earn that wage.  And they don't want any. Because that entails work. 

Simple math. And they still

can't do it. Adding, subtracting, multiplying. On basic everyday issues?  And they can't do it. 

So I am guessing? They must have long since done away with algebra in the schools. 

Add to that? The fact that the promiscuous thinking of thirty five and forty years ago, as it concerned education and personal responsibility? Has metastasized and infected every aspect and every issue of our lives to day. 

Thirty five and forty years ago? Is when America began falling behind educationally, compared to the world. Or as my grandmother would have said: 

"That's when the USA began suckling hind teat."  

And we don't have years or decades to catch up. The rest of the world is in the fast lanes of education, and we are in the handicapped parking. 

So what does all of that have to do with the reasons for the uptick in gun violence you may be asking?

Very simple. 

It is about personal responsibility, personal accountability and consequences of actions. 

And absent those three elements? Elements basically taught and reinforced for generations in America's schools?

Then you have the crime and violence problems that we are facing daily in America. 

Why the gun violence upticks?

Is that because of the easy availability of guns?

Well let is examine that premise shall we. Are guns easy to get in America?  And the answer to that question is two fold.   

Firstly? Guns are not easy to obtain if you are a law abiding citizen. They are expensive? And you have to pass a background check to purchase any firearm. 

However? If you are one of the millions presently inhabiting this country? Where the rules and the laws don't really apply to you?  Like the criminals and the thugs of particular classes and cultures?

Guns are very easy to obtain. 

You simply steal them. 

Either from a retail store? Or from the homes and cars of those who own them legally. 

I posted a report last week, where 845 guns had been stolen from cars in Atlanta alone, so far this year. 

That is 845 guns? Handguns? That are now in the streets and in the hands of criminals. 

How many more were stolen nationally. I would hazard a guess in the range of 10,000 or more stolen nationally in the same period of time.  

So what is the answer?  What is the solution. Do we need more stringent gun control laws?

Do we need more extensive background checks?

Do we need gun registration and or gun confiscation?  Of the guns currently owned by law abiding citizens?

Are those the answers?  If you listen to the talking heads of media and their so called analysts and pre-Madonna academics and politicians.  

Those are the only answers. 

But once again? They purposely overlook the obvious. 

I literally laugh when I hear Dr Anthony Fauci chastising anyone who he says is not following the scientific data. 

He is one of those pre-Madonnas and the media love him. 

Yet? Let one of any number of individuals like Candice Owens or a myriad of others, put their credentials and data on the table concerning race or violence? As it concerns crime, gun violence and those responsible for it?

And the issue suddenly turns to racism. You are a racist! For even bring up the "data."

But the data doesn't lie. 

Over half of the crime in America is committed by less than 6% of the population. And so are over 70% of the homicides. 

Yet no one wants to address that data. No one wants to admit that their is a culture afoot in this nation responsible for those levels of crime and gun violence ?

These are the individuals that seek no apologies. They only seek to further their own desires. And those desires are to take what they want and the remainder of America? 

Can kiss their asses. 

Because they posess the Kryptonite of all defenses.  

If you challenge them? They will tell you that they have been unjustly deprived of success. That they have unjustly been deprived of equality. That they have unjustly become victims of the system. 

And lastly and most importantly? Their inability to thrive and succeed in American society? Is due to to one reason and one reason only. Systemic racism. 

And don't bother to ask them about personal responsibility or personal accountability. And don't bother to show them the examples of those of their own culture, who have thrived and succeeded? Because they played by the rules and obeyed the law. 

They do not want to hear that. 

And their counter offer? Is to assert that reparations are owed and absent those racial reparations? We as a nation can expect more of the same conduct from them as a culture. 

Because that is what is being taught in our schools today. That is what is being hustled in corporate board rooms. And why?

Because of the shear terror of being called a racist. 

If you are a member of the chosen class and the chosen culture? Your failures and denials of reality are excused. You are give a hall pass for society at large. 

And there is always a gaggle of so called sociologists and academic criminalogists and the media? And their politicians?  

More than ready to offer up a plethora of unsubstantiated allegations of racism, to support and defend those actions of particular classes and cultures. 

So. Is there a gun violence problem in America today? You are damn right there is. And anyone with half a mind and the ability to read and sift through the bullshit we are given as media journalism knows it. 

As they know precisely who in the majority? As a minority? Are reaponsible for the overwhelming amounts of crime and gun violence in America today and historically . 

14 shot in Austin Texas Saturday. By who. 

Another 9 shot in Savannah Georgia Saturday. By who. 

And the same shooter left there

And drove to Pheonix City Alabama and then onto Columbus Georgia and shot 4-5 more people on Saturday. 

Who were those persons? 

What were their motivations?  Were they someone who is a law abiding citizen? Someone who obtained and used a firearm legally?

What about in another two dozen American cities this week and this weekend. 

How many were shot there and killed.  In Chicago, Baltimore, New York, Boston, Richmond, Charlotte, Atlanta, Birmingham, Memphis, New Orleans, Columbus, Cincinatti, Minneapolis, Dallas, Houston, Portland, Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles.  

Just to name a few. 

Are these all shootings and homicides reflective of systemic racism? And the ease of law abiding citizens to go on shooting rampages?

Or are they symptomatic of a larger systemic reality in America today. 

The systemic reality that yes? We have a race problem

In America?  But it is not what we have been being told. It is not what we have been led to believe by a complicit media. 

It is due to a systemic race problem that begins in our schools and at home. Whatever home there may be. But as it concerns one specific culture in America today?

Once again the data reflects the truth. Over 70% of the families of a particular culture? Are single parent homes. There is no father figure in those homes and there never has been. 

Why? Because the government pays them not to have fathers in the household. 

The only male figures in those homes? Are seen on atheltic fields, or listened to in rap music. 

The Bible says? Train a child up.  

Proverbs 22:6

"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."

So. Do we have a gun violence problem in America today?  You are damn right we do. And anyone short of a blinkered fool knows who and what is responsible for it.  

We are and have been training up segments and cultures of our society, to believe that the world owes them everything.  And the reason the world owes them everything, is due to systemic racism. 

And payback and reparations are due. And if they are not freely given? They will be taken. 

So? Govern yourselves accordingly, but know the truth. The problems in America today? Be they gun violence or crime, or abandoned families? Are not due to systemic racism. Or the lack of critical race theory. 

Because the only critical race theory afoot and being proven daily in America today? Is the critical race theory that one culture deserves special dispensations. Including the ability to prey on other cultures unabated. 

And that ability is granted and given by our elected officials and teachers and the media. And those in the media, reinforce those socialIst concepts daily.

Pay No Attention To Those Behind The Curtain

Do we really need a January 6th commission?  If you listen to the democrats?  Most definitely. 

Their bill to create one, passed the house yesterday. They are seeking a commision to look into what they called the insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6th. 

However, as Ga. Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene pointed out on the floor of the house yesterday?  What about all of the other insurrections that occurred around the country last year. Involving black lies matter and antifa anarchists and Marxists.  

Where months of insurrections occurred in cities all across America. Attacking federal buildings and court houses and police stations and private businesses?

Resulting in billions of dollars and thousands of private businesses damaged and destroyed, and the deaths of dozens of people killed in the process.  

As is predictable, the democrats don't give a rat's ass about any of that.  What they want to focus on, is the continued shitstir against republicans in general and Donald Trump in particular. 

After spending millions on witch hunts to slander Trump and try to remove him from office for the last four years?  They now want to spend millions more, continuing to persecute him

and anyone else who supported him, or does not agree with them. 

Which in the long view of recent history? Is about all they are good at.  Which is starting shit, blaming it on others, then launching congressional investigations to pursue their enemies, while hoping to distract the American people. 

And right now and for a long time? Their enemies are and have been the American people. In particular those capable of thinking and seeing what the left has done and is trying to do to America. 

And yes? The democrats are the enemies of the American people. 

So once again? It is same shit different day. Anything they can do to distract from their own failures and those of their incompetent leader Biden, is what they intend to do. 

To hell with the border crisis. To hell with rising inflation. To hell with the crisis in the middle east. To hell with the cyber attack/s on our critical infrastructure. To hell with China's imperial crusade and planned and boasted intentions to invade Taiwan. 

To hell with all of it.  

They just want to create another years long, multimillion dollar distraction, so their coconspirators in media, can support and project their socialist version of the world on the rest of us. 

Not no, but hell no.  🤔

Cry Havoc!

 After months of rioting in Atlanta.  After six Atlanta police officers were fired and criminally charged for doing their jobs last year, during those same riots and civil unrest?

After last weekend, where there were 24 shootings and five people killed in Atlanta alone.  After a gun battle at Atlantic station in the city yesterday. After the city's homicide rate is over 50% above what it was last year?

Everyone from the city's mayor Keisha Bottoms, to councilman Michael Julian Bond, to the newly elected DA Fani Willis?  

All seem to have come to the conclusion, that crime is out of hand and something has to be done. 

The DA going as far as to say? That "the police need help!"

Add to that? The city's decision last year to close the city jail. Opting to turn it into a halfway house. And added to that, the implementation of no cash bonds for anything less than a major felony. Just sign your name and walk out the door, regardless of charges. 

No, I am afraid that it is far more complicated, than the police need help. This country needs help. This city needs help. This society needs help. 

And help won't come from some commission on crime, as the Atlanta mayor has suggested. 

I don't believe, that you have to be a farmer or a 4 H Club member, to understand the age old axiom. Of closing the barn door after the cow is gone. 

I am sorry folks? But that train has left the station. 

And aside from the continued loss of police officers nation wide, no one is beating down the doors at recruiting offices, to put on a badge and a gun in any city in America today.  

Because to do so, will lead to them being abused at the least and fired and criminally charged at the worst. 

No one is applying anymore? Because they too see the TV news and they too read the funny papers. 

Nope, we are about six exits past wishing and hoping and creation of crime commissions. 

The die has been cast.  

I warned people years ago, that the thin blue line that separated civil society from anarchy? Was one generation from being erased. And that time has now come. 

Those of blm and antifa and their leftist supporters in mayors offices and governors mansions and congress have created the present reality.  And now? They are searching for answers why.  

Yes, there are still a few police officers in this country, who want to do the job; however, if they believe they are going to be allowed to in the present social atmosphere?  They are on a fool's errand. 

Ever since the last four years of the Obama administration, police officers in America, have been prevented from doing their jobs to protect anyone but themselves. 

They have been consistenly set upon, attacked and ambushed. And no one seems to notice or care. Other than the criminals and the thugs and the wannabes. 

They watch TV too. And what they see? Is a clear message. 

Do as you please, no one is going to try and stop you. And if anyone does? Especially if they are wearing a police uniform? Resist them, fight them, attack them!  And capture it all on your cell phone camera. 

Add to that, the days of the police In America being allowed to protect themselves is on the way out the door also. Calls to disarm the police have already begun. 

Watch closely what happens in NC tonight and nationally, in the wake of the DA in Elizabeth city NC, declaring today that the shooting death by police, of Andrew Brown was justified.  

It is not that many Americans do not appreciate the police, or understand that they had a hard enough job as it was, pre-Obama. 

The sad truth is, few if any are willing to stand up or speak truth to the realities, unfolding before our eyes. 

An old mayonaise commercial use to say: "If you want real

Mayonaise? You are going to have to break a few eggs."

That reality applied to the present day social collapse of law enforcement rings equally prescient. 

If you want to be protected?  The police are going to have to be allowed to do their jobs. They are going to have to be backed and supported, by the citizenry, their departments and elected officials, top to bottom.  

And for the police to be able to do their jobs? They are going to have to be able to do their jobs. And they are going to have to break a few eggs. 

A tall order. And from a practical sense? Something that is not going to be allowed. Not in this life time. We have come too far down the rabbit hole. Only now realizing? That it led to the great abyss. 

And that is precisely where this nation stands today. On weakened legs and wobbly knees, trying desperately to keep themselves from teetering over the edge. 

But I can tell you a few things for sure. If anyone believes for one second? That creating crime commissions, or police review boards? Or that initiating more police training? Is going to resolve America's present condition of rising crime and rising violent crime? 

You are just pissing up a rope and hoping not to be splashed. 

The police are trained. 

They are trained in how to subdue resisting and violent individuals. They are trained how to utilize non lethal and lethal force. And they are trained how to save lives.  

The problem is? Anytime they utilize that training to intervene and arrest someone who has chosen to resist? Or anyone actively engaged in trying to kill the officer or someone else?

They are immediately deemed to be wrong and at fault. 

And as of late? Those same police are being trained to die. Because the powers that be in this country? Would rather bury a police officer, than have to deal with the mob. 

Shakespear once noted? "Cry havoc! And let slip the dogs of war."

And we have. Long ago. 

And now that those dogs of urban war are biting all of us in the ass?

No one seems to understand why. 🤔

Not The, Not Now

 I was having a conversation with a friend yesterday.  I explained my perspectives on journalism media and entertainment media. And it is pretty simple. 

The jounalistic media? Has long since lost the script to what their funtion is and was supposed to be.  

Included in the first amendment? The media was entrusted with one of the greatest of responsibilities. 

That of being the watch dogs and gate keepers of our freedom. Specifically, by holding the government and elected officials, accountable to the people. 

That is why the phrase:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press"

However, the media in America, of the last sixty years, have abandoned and abridged that sacred right, by bowing to political bias and the almighty dollar. 

And in doing so, they have also joined with present day Marxist forces, to abridge the people's right of free speech. 

As it concerns the entertainment media?

For at least the last twenty five years, those in Hollywood and televised entertainment, have opted to create media that proffers political bias, alternative sexual life styles and sexuality, and values that do not represent the mainstream or core values and morals of the majority of America. 

And as of the last two years? They have sought to cancel anyone, who does not embrace their alternative, alien, anti American and Marxist values. 

And the results of that have revealed themselves in the loss of viewers and movie attendance. And the loss of corporate dollars. 

The bottom line is this. I like most Americans have decided? That if we want to be preached to, we will go to church. 

However, when we pay money to see a movies? Or subscribe to a televised program? Or turn on our televisions to watch news or entertainment programming?

We want two things and only two things. We want to be informed? Or entertained. 

We do not want to be told that or values and principles no longer matter. Or that we are bad or wrong, because we do not embrace those views. Or that we have to embrace the new age woke mentality of the counter culture.  Or else. 

I and many others? Lived through and survived the first waves of the counter culture in the 69's. I did not like or embrace it then and I damn sure do not like it or embrace it now. 

And those are my feelings in a

nutshell and from the published reviews and corporate statements of these entertainment entities and news organizations? It appears to me that I am not alone. 

Your thoughts.

Clowns To The Left of Me, Jokers To the Right

 If there is one thing that I have learned in my fifty years as an adult on this planet? As a Marine, as a father, as a life long law enforcement officer?

It is that you cannot appease evil of misconduct. 

There have to be rules. And people have to obey the rules?  Or their is disharmony and chaos. And predators utilize both, to single out and victimize the unwary, the ill informed and the stupid. 

Do away with the police and prisons? Are they stone cold insane? Or are they just pretending to be to garner fame?  

These ass clown morons are courting anarchy and they obviously do not have the sense to understand that if they get what they are after? They too will become the slaughtered.

And just like the lyrics to Me & Bobby McGee?  "Freedom's just another word for, nothing left to lose."

Until you lose it. Then it is hell to pay to ever get it back.
