The Bloodletting and Wilding Is Part of An Agenda To Tear Down The Country

The Bloodletting and Wilding Is Part of An Agenda To Tear Down The Country

The fury vented on the streets is not about George Floyd, his death was the spark but the fire has been planned for two generations.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkew_ngvps0

I haven’t had much time to reflect on the looting and riots that swept mostly (but not exclusively) large Democrat cities. It was a wilding on a scale we’ve never seen. It was a bloodletting and release of criminal fury.

We should be clear what is happening. It is not protest over the death of George Floyd. That is the spark, but not the fire.

This has been a long time coming. At least a generation, maybe two. The left methodically has taken control of key institutions to implement an anti-American, anti-Capitalist agenda.

You send your kids to public schools and college, where they are taught from their earliest years that America and capitalism are the sources of evil in the world, that we are a systemically racist society that consumes ‘black and brown bodies,’ while socialist and communist systems are more equal and fair. It’s all a lie, but it’s a lie told by the teachers, professors, and administrators with power. The real racists are the people who obsess about race, and who judge people based on the color of their skin.

When your kids emerge from the social justice warfare meat grinder, you don’t recognize them anymore. Oh well, you shrug.

There is a concerted effort funded by leftist billionaires and high tech companies to control what you can say, and to silence you through mob action or social media throttling if you get out of line. The large corporate media, with only a couple of exceptions, is thoroughly corrupt and works every day to elect their preferred candidates, always Democrats.

The law enforcement system is being undermined by district attorneys funded by George Soros whose agenda is to prevent enforcement of laws, and politicians whose goal is to see those arrested released immediately without bail. We’re seeing that right now with rioters and looters almost immediately released. The next push is to defund the police.

Hollywood, The music industry. Television. Gone.

We still have the vote and can win elections, despite the disadvantage. But it’s not a guarantee. Which is why the left wants to subvert voting integrity.

All this time, you have seen bits and pieces, and figured that while you might not agree, it wasn’t a threat to our existence.

The wilding and looting should be your wake up call. When seconds counted, the police were pulled back by the policitians.

The goal is to destroy capitalism, and to seek revenge. The Black Lives Matter movement, founded based on fraudulent narratives of the Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown cases, is led by anti-American, anti-capitalist activists. They have concocted a false narrative of mass murder of Blacks at the hands of police, when the statistics show otherwise. They will exploit George Floyd’s death mercilessly to drive that agenda. And they will have some success, because all the institutions listed above are behind them.

There are short term things that can be done, but it depends on the federal government because in the Democrat states where most of the violence took place, the politicians are part of the problem. There needs to be a massive and relentless tracking down of the people who helped coordinate the violence. It needs to start right now. Of course, it will stop on a dime if Joe Biden is elected, but it needs to be started. It should not take more than 2-3 months to accomplish this, and it will take the key criminals off the street in the federal system where activist District Attorney’s can’t interfere.

Democrat states and cities are in a bad way financially due to their own mismanagement of their economies and their tolerance of rioters and looters. They all will be seeking federal bailouts. Just say no, unless there is structural change.

But these are just a short term actions that will not change the rot in our institutions. I wish I had a long-term solution. That’s something that needs to be discussed in the coming weeks.

Amidst all this gloom, there is a ray of light. Most of the country didn’t riot and loot. Most of the people in the country don’t hate capitalism and want a Marxist revolution. Most of the country still loves the country. Don’t lose sight of that. If after two generations the radical left were not able to beat patriotism out of most Americans, there is a chance.

Chinese State Media Calls Violent U.S. Protests

A ‘Beautiful Sight’

https://www.weaselzippers.us/449895-retribution-chinese-state-media-calls-violent-u-s-protests-a-beautiful-sight/

I wouldn’t even call it the spark. ‘Pretext’ is a better word.

    Terence G. Gain in reply to irv. | June 4, 2020 at 6:20 am

    Crime statistics demonstrate that the narratives of Black Lives Matter, Antifa, the Democrat Party and the Media are the inversion of the truth. John Peraazzo has an excellent column him today on the stats at Front Page Magazine. President Trump and Republicans need to learn the statistics and push back. They will be called racist for doing so. They are going to be called racist in any event and the public needs to know the statistics. Obama’s false narrative needs to be challenged.

      JusticeDelivered in reply to Terence G. Gain. | June 4, 2020 at 11:57 am

      Actual racism is when someone is prevented from achieving their full potential because of their race.

      Another form of racism is promoting people who are not qualified over those who are qualified, or better qualified, simply because of their race.

      Most certainly, expecting, demanding to be promoted, is bald faced racism.

The Friendly Grizzly | June 3, 2020 at 9:19 pm

Floyd’s death wasn’t a spark. it was an excuse.

    So well organized – and so well hidden.

    Our response has to be ruthless.

      Who’s gonna “respond”? Not Barr. Apparently the FBI has found three right wingers in Vegas to arrest, but will never be able to find a single member or financier of America’s newest terrorist group, Antifa

    And there has not been a shred of evidence produced anywhere that Floyd’s death was in any way racially motivated.

    Want to protest Minneapolis cops’ use of excessive force? Fine, do it, but do it peacefully. And if you’re doing it in Minneapolis, remember that you’re doing it in a city with a black police chief, and an ever-so-woke Dim city council. IOW, these are the people that you voted to be in charge. And maybe ask yourself what your own responsibility for these events is.

Yes…

And the Obama regime stoked these flames during his presidential occupation…

And Obama STILL STOKES this commie fire…

He.Built.That.

The stock market doesn’t seem to care. Perhaps cities are really obsolete. One solution could be to wall off LA, San Francisco, Portland, Chicago, and New York City, and walk away from it.

I’m dreaming, but dreaming is fun.

    Wait till democrats and antifa start attacking our infrastructure: our water, our elecricity, sewage, food supplies, etc.

    The stock market doesn’t quite get we are in a civil war and the dollar means nothing until one side annilates the other or we break up the nation – or Mattis leads a military coup, or PDJT destroys the treasonous cabal.

    We can only pray our soidles and field officers are loyal to their oathes.

      Just listen to what Mattis had to say, and I’ve convinced myself that what Esper read yesterday was prepared for him by the Joint Chiefs of Staff

    Demonized in reply to rdmdawg. | June 4, 2020 at 9:00 am

    We need good people with a work ethic here in small town Kansas. But please behave like civilized folk are supposed to.

Professor, there is no other conclusion that can be reached.

The root cause it the news business model and the women’s vote.

There’s no market for hard news. Think city council meetings.

There’s a huge market that will watch every day, news or no news, and that’s the soap opera audience. So soap opera news is what you get. The product of news organizations isn’t news, it’s you. They sell your eyeballs to advertisers.

In particular soap opera women. It’s a minority of women, 40%, but big enough to pay the daily bills.

The democrats are free-riding on that news business model, tailoring every narrative for women, and no other story has legs.

The reason democrats free-ride is that those women vote, and that closes the loop.

It’s not that the media are democrats but that the media peddle soap opera. That’s what gives the institutional versions legs too. No other narrative is permitted.

It should be added that there’s a parasitic sort of news on the right, which reports – not city council meetings – but what the leftists said today. That business too would die if it weren’t, indirectly, for soap opera women.

Absolutely correct.

Black Lives Matters is a psycho fascist group, whose agenda calls for the elimination of police – LITERALY.

Ok, you say. That sounds stupid, you say: who would replace the police? Black Lives Matters goons.

THIS SHOULD SCARE THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF YOU.

It is hard to believe this is really happening, but this is really happening. Most memoirs of people writing of living through historic events say the same thing. But they realized it was too late before they ‘believed’ it.

Time to start shooting these rioters down. Time to arrest their funders. Time to raid Antifa ringleaders and lock them away – and away from other prisoners whose minds they might poison. Time to fire half the people in government jobs. Time to arrest their elected co-conspirators (kamala harris among them). Time to BOYCOTT their enabler including that asshole le bron james and everyone doing business with him. Time to boycott and destroy the NFL and put knee-takers out of business. Time to boycott neflix to stop its propanganda.

What WE want? – For the fascist to wring their hands adn fretting, saying, “It’s hard to believe is really happening”.

It’s out only hope. It’s us or them.

Letting Portland burn is not getting Ted Wheeler any new friends. Their game plan it seems was to let things get out of control to the point where the Donald would step in and then they could further undermine the Donald. The thing is, the Donald is way better at playing chicken than they are. I think the locals pols signed on to this lunacy in November 16 figuring that Trump would be out of the game in a few months. Never in their wildest dreams would he a) last the entire term and b) become even more popular. They are literally so desperate and scared that they are willing to burn down their own houses on the off chance it got Trump defeated.

Mad Dog Mattis has become a mad dog:

Don’t be surprised if there is a coup attempt – by force.

We very close to a shooting war in side the US.

WHEN it does start, China and Russia will go buck wild upon the world militarily. Goodbye Taiwan, goodbye Hong Kong, goodbye South Korea, goodbye Israel, goodbye Germany (who cares?). Worse: goodbye America.

All true. But you could have written this 20 years ago.

Where was everyone?

You are wrong in one serious critical thing.

IT IS STILL HAPPENING AND WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN. Cities continue to burn, stores will be looted, people maimed and killed as I write this. IT HASN’T AND WON’T STOP! This is in the SJW blue states which will not take any action to stop it.

Today on Dan Bongino he said he wanted to save Molech’s Carthage, oops, I mean New York City. Whose abortion clinics murder more BLACK babies than are born. The small businesses are desparate to have some security.

Do not think the culture of death won’t kill your city. It might take longer than you think because of God’s grace and mercy but it will happen.

Abraham contended with God, “If there are 10 righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah”… Lot had to leave, and his wife turned into a pillar of salt because she dithered.

Perhaps it isn’t yet time to evacuate, but if you are wrong? Stay in Sodom? Don’t enter Noah’s Ark? Wait and see?

I’m watching from my small home town 500 miles away from any riots (I’ve said there is nothing wrong with Colorado that destroying Denver wouldn’t fix) with little joy (ok, more than a bit of schadenfreude). I expected and predicted this.

What would you say to a Jew who could escape Germany the day after Krystalnacht? But stayed to try to convince the “Good Germans” because he thought being reasonable would work?

I don’t have Cable. I’m not on Twitter or Facebook. I have Google only for Android and it is heavily shielded. The part of the country that is safe has “gone Galt”. Almost literally. How are the rockies states doing? Both Covid and Chaos?

Atlas is Shrugging. The motor of the world hasn’t just stopped, it has seized like the “clunkers” turned in for cash under Obama. Don’t be an “Eddie Willers” lest you meet his fate.

Everything is breaking down. What happens if the utilities fail – no power or water? Too dangerous or the damage is too dispersed or deep to fix quickly? If the trucks with food can’t get in?

Prudence is the virtue of the moment.

I’m over it. Let the big blue cities burn. The riots prove that democrat ideology is literally deadly. Figuratively as well of course. Portions of these democrat cities will take years, decades to recover. Who wants to come rebuild in an area where their government not only failed them, but worked against them. And taxed them at exorbitant rates for the privilege. Who wants to be one msm outrage story away from losing their business, home, neighborhood stores and restaurants? Sanctuary policies, no bail release, stand-down orders… California tried passing a “Deadly force only when necessary” law. The democrat supermajority and gavin newsome didn’t take into account that no peace officer would risk a murder charge defending the physical structure of the State Capitol building. The democrats purposefully went to war against their own constuitants, I just hope enough of them wake up to that fact and send the democrat party to the ash bin of history.

      We keep gulling ourselves with this useless fantasy. Multiple police departments never gave a second thought to the blatant unconstitutionality of seizing legal private firearms after Katrina. An entire Bible Belt police department saw no obvious constitutional violation in ticketing worshippers isolated inside their own cars at a Sunday service.

      The police are already a lost cause. The military, despite what you think, will not be far behind.

    alaskabob in reply to gonzotx. | June 3, 2020 at 11:01 pm

    The general and that former Joint Chief can’t grasp the difference of protestor and looter. 50+ Secret Service injuried, church burning, desecration of monuments. I guess since the Pentagon wasn’t burned down it was OK. Who is left to protectiVE if police can’t or wont? Political officers.

    Either they’re swamp rats or they are patriots.

    Mattis sure tipped his hand.

    Listen, this is going all the way. It’s too highly organized, from street garbage all the way up to kamala harris (she is a US senator after all) and now up to James Mattis.

    Mattis wouldn’t have said what he did unless he got marching orders from the swamp.

    What a rat. But then, civil wars are about taking sides, and brother against brother.

    Unbated, democrat Antifa browhshirts will probably attack our infrastructure. Wait till our food supply starts drying up and our water stops running, and our sewers start backing up.

    Mattis was the tipping point. It’s gonna go all the way.

    Antifa will probably attack our infrastructure.

        Because our Framers believed in a democratic republic, knowing all democracies will fail and that hyperegalitarianism is dysfunctional and dysgenic. We need to repeal the Seventeenth Amendment to restore the states’ role in our republic, and deprive parasites (welfare recipients) of their votes due to their obvious conflict of interest.

    There won’t be an election.

    There will be a military coup – or at least an attempt.

    James Mattis will lead it.

    If Trump wins a majority of votes, it will be more than he did last time. It will also mean Washington D.C. burns to the ground before Thanksgiving.

    Another test will be if/when they start attacking neighborhoods. We will either use our 2nd amendment rights or lose them. Trump keeps repeating his support for those rights even now. We might finally be called to put up or shut up.

When people learn, which is rarely, they only learn from experience, vigorously delivered.

Our revolutionary comrades from opportunistic sociopaths, through apparatchiks n smalltime grifters, to useful idiots(*) may come to regred the experience they are delivering with such vigor.

(*) That breakdown of revolutionary bretheren is roughly from Eric Hoffer’s The True Believer — pretty much required reading in these times.

    The sedition is reaching up to the hightest levels in our government, and with Mattis’ treason, into the military.

This after a couple nights pinging me about my safety, in one of the residential neighborhoods a few blocks from the “riots.” To be fair, we don’t have real riots here — too genteel.

      She has an interesting mind. Come at her pronouncements or conclusions directly, and she has to dig in. Zing her with a premise n it sits there like a catalyst in her brain.

      That “something doesn’t fit” Spidey-sense does her a lot of good at work. Something systematically can’t work bugs her, regardless of the noise n social pressure around it. That bleeds into her “thinking” about politics n similar, sometimes.

    A person in dire need of a good fondue recipe.

Not talked about much, we can all agree that there are some bad cops out there and they need to be removed from the positions they hold. Luckily the numbers are small and the bad ones will be exposed and dealt with. My concern is how are the going to be able to recruit, train and retain the next generations of police officers.
Why enter a field where you are shown a minimal amount of respect from the public, an employer who may or may not support each and every decision you make. We’ve had decades of quotas, preferred hiring yet nothing has changed.
Issues like domestic violence, drug abuse, drug related crimes, traffic accidents aren’t going away anytime soon plus many officers are trying to create a dialogue and positive relationship with the public at the same time.
Why put yourself at risk every shift, the job isn’t going to get easier as this society devolves.

The 60’s saw us take prayer out of the schools to appease a minuscule atheist minority. Multiple assassinations in addition to all the other crazy stuff. I think it all started with the murder of JFK.

To be serious, yes to our esteemed host; all he wrote is bang-on. Yet, there’s more.

The Tea Party folks should take some guidance from this. They thought they were expressing themselves in a straight game. Express your preference, and the system aligns to delivering that — that’s self-government, right?

The game is programming the zeitgeist.

The good news is we have better messages n offers, if only we’ll epress them. Since it’s not an honest game, being right won’t win all at once. It will chip off a person at a time, a policy at a time, an assumption at a time, an expreince at a time.

BierceAmbrose | June 4, 2020 at 12:30 am

True to form, The Stupid Party in the midst of all this is bumbling their message, offer and execution.

Here’s a message: “Here we go again. Near 40 years after the Rodney King verdict, it’s the same play. How about we try something different this time?”

The offere is: “Our common ground is that nobody can live a big life at risk of being robbed or rousted at any time — no matter who’s doing it. Let’s clean this up, cops, agitators, organized crime, whatever.”

Then execute.

The Left-Anarchy crowd have turned their collective backs on the slow Cloward-Piven Strategy of pressuring to spend our way into ruin on unaffordable social safety net crap in order to build back up with hive rule and gone straight to massive straight-on force and open rebellion to achieve the same purpose.

They timed this to coincide with the cabin fever lockdown America has been suffering. All they needed was for somewhere in America there to be filmed a police action against a black guy and 3… 2… 1… We have liftoff.

But I think many of the civil protesters are actually protesting the prolonged lockdown, thus happily gathering in large groups. After all, the lockdown was only supposed to be 14-days to ease the burden on hospitals then they pulled this never-ending crap.

Meanwhile, the Øbama shock troops do their damage.

As for Mattis, he sent a very bad message to active-duty military. While also dissing the Park Police and Secret Service, both groups having taken many injuries dealing with rather violent protesters near the White House. Funny how Mattis ignored that.

Is Mattis dog-whistling the Secret Service and Park Police to let the next batch of protesters get onto White Huse grounds and into the White House?

We are living in dangerous times.

I see many commenters here, or in other conservative sites, ask for an heavy intervention by the Army.
Believe me: it’s what they also long, in order to portray Trump as Pinochet before the elections; and the trick might work.
I wonder, on the other hand, what would happen if the residents under attack started throwing down from the rooftops flower pots, half-gallon glass bottles (full), expendable furniture, anything at hand, leaving some rioters dead; or at least dump the kitty litter, the trashbin, the spent frying oil, the chamber pot on the mob. Don’t have a chamber pot? Any plastic box would do.
I don’t get why it’s not happening already.

Terence G. Gain | June 4, 2020 at 6:30 am

Welfare policies have led to the breakdown of the black family as the government replaced the role of black men. The problem is now intractable as selling less government is a very hard sale, especially in a land of plenty.

The problem started with the election of Woodrow Wilson, who believed educated bureaucrats/elites should run the country.

Two MUST READ links for today:

Michelle Malkin: https://www.unz.com/mmalkin/get-up-off-your-knees/

Breitbart: https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/06/03/los-angeles-mayor-eric-garcetti-cut-150-million-from-police-reinvest-in-communities-of-color/

This is no time left to put up with the “It’s never EVER the right time to do the right thing” Republicans. The moment has arrived to fight. At least take you masks off.

This is the Democrat Party, still throwing a fit.

The Bloodletting and Wilding Is Part of An Agenda To Tear Down The Country
YA THINK?!

Professor Jacobson is 100% on target. Unfortunately there is no long term solution. The colleges and universities and public schools will not be reformed from within. Do those Americans who recognize the problem have the political power to undertake the clean up that is required, or even thefts to do so?
As for the black problem: despite the billions of dollars spent on different programs, the special privileges granted, a large percentage of the black population has remained and will continue to remain a dangerous
lumpenproletariat (to use the Marxist term) liable to explode at any time. Why? There is
abundant evidence that the problem is genetic. And even if not, black culture will not be
easily changed. In short, we have our own Algerian problem–and the French have adopted
the only sensible solution–wall off their the dangerous population from the rest of society and
let them run amoke in their “no go” areas.

inspectorudy | June 4, 2020 at 10:57 am

I have been on this earth for 78 years and have never been this depressed or disillusioned about the future of our country. I have never for one minute feared an outside takeover or invasion because the American people have always been the rock in the storm. But now the rock is split and the storm is raging. Every value that I have held dear has been trashed and replaced with a nonsensical slogan. Respect for others is gone. The ten commandments have been trashed. The golden rule has changed to “Do to others before they do it to you”. Logic and reason have been abandoned for slogans and feelings. Where are we headed and what is the answer? Do any of you see this division as one that can be reunited or is the chasm so wide that it is permanent? If so what does that mean?

    MarkS in reply to inspectorudy. | June 4, 2020 at 11:22 am

    The Left will, and always has, persisted until they achieve the goal…by any means necessary

    I hear you, inspectorudy, and share some of your sense of despair, and definitely share your heartache. I think, though, that Professor Jacobson is correct in that there are huge swaths of America that are still America, that still hold those values dear.

    The radical left has mainstreamed and that is cause for serious alarm, but we also know what they fear most because they tell us all the time. They loathe free speech; they are justly afraid because the vast majority of Americans are armed and will not allow their communities, neighborhoods, and homes to be invaded by rabid lunatics on a mission of death and destruction; they only want to disarm the police so they can then say that it’s “unfair” that the populace is legally armed while LEOs are not (another way to eliminate Second Amendment rights); they are justly concerned that they are not making any inroads with normal Americans, and they are hoping that these riots will instigate an over-the-top response from Trump (Alinsky Rule #10) and turn Americans against him in sympathy for the rioters and looters (think the response to MLK’s marches that had that effect in the ’60’s … and why he was right that peaceful was the way to go, a thing Malcolm X learned too late and the learning of which cost him his life); they count on normal Americans remaining peaceful and civil (until directly threatened), but that plays in our favor more than theirs (see Alinsky Rules #1 and 10); but mostly, they fear Trump and the patriotism he embodies and inspires.

    We still have the best hand, and a far better hand than we did in 2016 under Obama or would have had if Hillary had won, and that is why they are so afraid and desperate. Take heart, my friend. 🙂

      Agreed. The world is betting on the US (led by Trump) prevailing. THAT is why the stock market continues to rally There is a lot of globalist dirty money financing this global marxist movement but there are lots of billionaires and sovereign wealth funds who completely understand that their billions would evaporate were the marxists to win. So they pour their money into our tech, oil and industrial stocks betting on Trump winning.

      Also, we still have the only powerful and essentially healthy economy in the world. There really is no other winning bet out there. We lose, civilization itself is sent into chaos. And the first ones to be lined up against the wall will be the “useful fools” who are today out on the streets apologizing for the very culture that has delivered freedom to so many throughout the world.

      It could be that the turning point will be when the 2nd amendment comes into play. That involves most of us and we better be up to it. We’ll see how many of our “friends and neighbors” are truly on our side. It would be great if the police come out on our side to prevent the bloodshed.

      Our resolve to be willing to go that far may in the end be how it is prevented.

      That the nation is further fragmented into Progressive states which are being taken over by radical mob and those still in control of reasonable sane people, is NOT a recipe for national success. What do you think cause the First United States Civil War? It was not slavery. It was secession. In order to survive, the less-Progressive and Non-Progressive states will have to secede from the Union. This will trigger a Federal military response, to “save” the nation. The urban areas can not support themselves. They rely upon the rural areas for their food. In many areas, such as NY, even water comes from rural areas. And, urban areas are energy hogs, as well. They are terribly fragile environments. And, that is why they have to be protected so strenuously, by their representative governments, backed up by their residents. If this does not happen, the city falls into anarchy and this causes a ripple effect which will impact the rural areas significantly. So, sooner or later, if the local government can not handle the onslaught, the federal government must. Both federal intervention and a lack thereof are risky. But, the choice of which to employ is becoming less with each passing day.

    The atheist left, having decided not to trust the true God, has set themselves up as their god.

    Let us not make the same mistake, no matter how grim our circumstances.

    Rudy, you have 14 years on me. It’s been a struggle with depression here, too – about which I can only pray and remember the many times in my life where darkness threatened to engulf me only to see light / truth, restoration and blessing emerge. If that’s true on a personal scale – and I’ve heard many testimonies like mine in my life time – how much more true can it be for a nation divided – longing for peace and unity? God has said after all:

    If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)

    I haven’t written a Christian song in ages, instead I’ve been writing silly political parodies. As if to shake me out of depression, there have been some stirrings for a song of faith – the gist of which is simply ‘the power of destruction is no match for the power of creation … falsehood and hatred is no match for the truth and love’ … to that end, as long as there is light, darkness doesn’t stand a chance.

    It’s far easier to find videos and news of the destruction, but there are news clips that inspire hope to be found … Leslies post at https://legalinsurrection.com/2020/06/immediately-after-rioting-and-looting-ended-la-mesa-citizens-gathered-to-clean-up/ is welcome encouragement. People coming out of shelter and cleaning up with just a few things in common – all are Americans and all are builders / creators / healers – they were just waiting for the destroyers to depart. Once more darkness overcome by light, hatred overcome by love and compassion.

    Perhaps the intensity of the hatred and anger this time around, is a last gasp type effort – at least I hope so. I cling to the promise that ultimately, everything will fade away – and all that remains will be faith, hope and love. Hang in there Rudy.

    Damn, inspectorudy, you’re even older than I am. It is a depressing vista on display. I don’t let it get me down, I get motivated by looking to God’s truths and purposes. I am almost ready to start shooting. Need to sight in a couple of rifles, maybe buy a little more ammo for one of them. Looking forward to meeting some more compatriots in arms along the way.

Professor Jacobson,

The only reforms that may actually work would be to apply the logic of Janus to the public sector unions. The police and school teachers should, IMO, be stripped of their ability to bargain for ‘protections’ outside of the most commonsense civil service protection. That is to say, no mass firings due to the hiring of a new police chief or election of a new Mayor or School superintendent.

To be clear, if employees voluntarily decide to individually join a union they can certainly choose to do so. However, the unions can no longer be allowed to effectively prevent their members from being held truly accountable; termination in those cases where termination is called for.

This civil service accountability must be combined with active community focused oversight boards. These boards must be empowered to act at the precinct and school zone level. City wide and school district wide boards have failed. They have become mere political sinicures either unable or unwilling to make reform to their broken organizations.

Additionally the twin doctrines of police militarization and Marxist ideology cloaked in SJW intersectionality language must be rejected.

If we can truly empower local communities to review, oversee and hold accountable the bad actors, the incompetent and the unwilling with the reality of termination we will have placed the future of those communities to no their own hands. This proposal isn’t perfect. In some locations it will fail. In others it will succeed.

Either way every community will be able to chart their own course. They will no longer be reliant upon some crusading journalist, activist law firm or grifting outsider to solve their problems. They will have the means and the choice to do so themselves. Whether, they choose to succeed or to fail they will have been empowered to make the choice and take the responsibility for themselves and their own actions.

Thanks for your accurate assessment of the situation!

“I wish I had a long-term solution.”

Let’s start here:

“You send your kids to public schools and college …”

“When your kids emerge from the social justice warfare meat grinder, you don’t recognize them anymore. Oh well, you shrug.”

Everyone reading this can immediately do something about these two things.

Parents can pull their children out of the corrupt public K-12 schools. Churches and non-parents can help them, financially and otherwise.

Parents can choose more wisely what colleges they send their children to.

But pastors are afraid to offend parents by suggesting they are sacrificing the welfare of their children. Churches send money for foreign missions, but neglect the welfare of their children.

Malachai 4:5-6

Please, Jacobson, you are not so ignorant or mindless to actually believe this is some long in the making anti-American Commie plot. Millions of your fellow Americans are outraged at a brazen public murder of a Black citizen. But it is also more than that. It’s also the culmination of four years of disgust at the revolting and thoroughly un-American conduct of the man in the White House. If you really care about this great country, you must care about ALL Americans — not just the 35% who for some buzarre reason have been misled into believing that they have a monopoly on American values.

so the intelligent ones are out there assaulting/looting/burning/stealing/destroying public and private property at will with the complicity of the demmocrat politicians all the way from the county level up to the state governors?–and, as yet, with no punishment for their crimes?–instead, numerous official endorsements and encouragements to continue their lawlessness with impunity?

have some more cool-aid and sit down–if the fascists/dems actually seize power, you’re not long for this world anyway

LukeHandCool | June 4, 2020 at 4:17 pm

The wheels have come off so quickly it’s just breathtaking. I’ve never been so afraid for our country’s future–by a long shot.

Mayor Garcetti, after bending the knee to the mob yesterday, just announced the City of Los Angeles will cut LAPD’s budget between $100 Million and $150 Million. This is utterly dangerous madness all based on a lie. I saw people on Twitter just yesterday saying not to worry … that demands to defund the police were just crazy talk from the leftist fringe. Well one day later and it’s actually happening.

Notes to Myself Revealed on the Eve of Soemthing’s Destruction

1) In the view of Antifa/BLM/Open Society/et al, it seems that there is no Constitutional exception to a SJW-led insurrection of the US government and financial system, as constituted.

2) General Mattis’s comparison of PDT’s protective, rational and appropriate maneuver against rioting, resistant unpermitted encroachers on the White House’s comfort space with the divide-and-rule tactics employed by the Nazis, was, in no uncertain terms, historically arbitrary and wholly dishonest. It was also, and here’s the irony of it, clearly not apolitical. It was calculated to hurt politically and in a nakedly partisan manner.

So much for the military’s, at least this retired general’s (and others’ lately, see below), professional ethos of remaining free of public political commentary on the president, can we agree?

Mattis’s intellectual dishonesty is based on my sense of his (very active, fully cognizant) choice to ignore the use by many military leaders over the millennia of the principle of divide and conquer — more precisely in the context of politics and sociology, “divide and rule”.

3) The recent, bubble-bursting trend of former flag officers — viz, McCraven, Mullen, and now Mattis) is remarkable, and now, increasingly significant. I therefore feel that those who see coming soon, to a main street near you, say, “Seven Days in June,” aren’t theoretically on the wrong track at all. We’ll see soon enough about the practical part of this sensible vision.

Wow, we really just might be living through, witnessing and experiencing an amazing and unique, hopefully not the last book
of American history. Hang on to your means of self defense. The landscape is awfully complex and often enough, misleading and surprising. Stay frosty.

Keep the blog going! I’ll trust its comments more than any shortwave reception, especially if a post-P-D-T government comes to pass, transmitting on the EAS!

Occupy Wall Street was just a warm up.

Occupy Wall Street was started by Adbusters, a Canadian anti-capitalist magazine.

Adbusters was founded by an Estonian who emigrated to Canada, and wrote books such as Culture Jam and Design Anarchy, which both propose, yep you guessed it….acts of vandalism designed to subvert mainstream society.
