Zimmerman

Yeah, I know. ya'll are probably as tired of hearing that name as I am, and for varying reasons.

Well as some of you may know George Zimmerman's wife called the cops and accused him of assault and pointing a gun at her.

Now he was released and in a simply shocking  turn of events..SHE has been arrested.

Now does anyone notice a difference in the two links?

No?  think on it. I'll wait.

If you guessed that the link about George is from a NATIONAL Big 3[ABC/CBS/NBC] affiliate and the other is a smaller outlet.  Congratulations! You grok*. If you didn't guess the correct answer...well there's always the next pop quiz I suppose.

The first got splattered all over the national news, non stop. While the second, outside of 2 smaller outlets is getting no play  whatsoever in the national media. Hell even FOX ain't bothered to report the 2nd one yet and I figured they'd be first to jump on it.

In other news Shellie Zimmerman was pled guilty to and took  a plea deal for perjury, about 2weeks ago. A friend of mine suggested that from his read of it, she was railroaded. That may or may not be...but did not the STATE government of Florida, and the progressive propaganda ministry ,and that quisling ass licking, duck fucking, dipshit we have for a President;  do that to her husband from the get go?   Is she not trying to do the same thing now to get a more favorable outcome for her in the divorce case against her soon to be EX husband?  Welcome to the party Shellie, karma is a bitch.

Hmmm if the video from Shellie's ipad show that she did in fact start the altercation with George the other day and was the one doing the assaulting?  I wonder what the fact that she's already on probation for lying, is going to do to any sentences she might garner if tried  and convicted by judge or jury for this assault charge?   For one it certainly violates the terms of her probation, so she'll likely get time behind bars for that alone.  We'll just have to watch and see.

miscellaneous post

As I sit here on this beautiful friday afternoon, miserable, I gotta ask?  What for did I do to deserves this misery?
*next round of sneezing, sniffles and back of the throat drainage ensues like a solid slap to the head*

Oh yeah..I skipped out on taking my allergy meds for a day or two in the middle of ragweed season. this is my punishment.  My sinuses telling me in totally not subtle, totally unequivocal way that *I* am a dumb ass for not taking my allergy meds.

With any luck I'll be better by tomorrow. Sunday at the latest. in the mean time...I am miserable.

9/11...12 years later.

Yay and verily it's that time of year again. Time to shout "Remember 9/11", and ask "where were you/what were you doing on that day"

I'll keep this short and sweet folks.
I remember EXACTLY where I was and exactly what I was doing when it happened.  I also remember thinking as I ran over to the electronics department just in time to watch the plane fly into the 2nd tower.."someone just declared war".  I also remember thinking it might have been the Pakistanis.    Honestly as hypocritical as this is going to sound. I don't need people posting "remember 9/11" across my wall. See...as I said. I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing.
I also have something like 15-20 VHS tapes full of non stop hour by hour, 24hr coverage for days afterword. For days afterword my VCR was NEVER off and neither was my television. If the tape ran out when I was home..I changed it. If it was set to run out in the middle of the night..I set my alarm clock for a little before  that time to change the tape. While I was at work my little sister did it for me. I did that for...4 days. I called my sister shortly after I watched the plane hit the 2nd tower and told her to jack a blank into the VCR and hit record.  I bought a pack of tapes during my lunch break and took it home with  me.

I will never forget. I will never forgive.  Ever.

addendum 9/11/13 1:50pm:
Then there was the US Ambassador and 3 other brave souls killed by yet more cowards on the anniversary of 9/11, on september 11th 2012.  What did our government do about it? They blamed it on you tube video. Said it had nothing to do with the anniversary of 9/11 and swept it under the rug with the willing perfidity and compliance of the Progressive Propaganda Ministry.

Again..I will never forget and I will never forgive. In this case that extends to the people who killed our ambassador and his security team AND to our government.


That is my 9/11 anniversary post. That is all.

From urbangrounds. DC proposes 24hr waiting period before you can get a tattoo.

Yep you read that title right. They are proposing a 24 waiting period in DC before you can get a tattoo.

Read on McDuff...

I love this bit from my blogger buddy Robbie who's blog that is...

"A public safety issue? Uh, huh.

This encapsulates the entirety of the Progressive ideology: you are too stupid and utterly incapable of making decisions on your own behalf; it is only through the wisdom and benevolence of the Government that you might be saved from yourself.

Except when it comes to murdering the unborn baby in your uterus — in which case, we’ll get out of your way and let you destroy two lives at once without a moment’s pause."

Yep pretty much sums it up.

Race? what is race?

Good question.
Here's the short answer. It's a massive crockpot full of shit on high temp that's stinking up the whole house  and a misnomer.

"Wait? What?"  I can here you say or in some cases shout at the top of your lungs.

Verily, calm down. Sit a bit and ruminate, whilst I illuminate. Yes as a matter of fact I've happily jacked that line from a Disney cartoon. What of it? It's a good line. Movie was full of 'em. However I digress, back to the subject at hand.

Race, is a massive crock of shit. A false bill of goods. Snake oil sold to the unwitting and in some cases the willfully ignorant,  by a nest of snakes.  A great many of them in political office.  Lets not get me started on what I'd like to do to most politicians. It's graphic and ugly.

What most people refer to as "race" is in point of fact, my fellow germs and virii..Tribe.  Ergo 'racism' is 'tribalism'.  In other words, differences of opinion and fighting between the various tribes of man.   There are as many different tribes and kinds of tribes as...well I won't say as there's stars in the sky, or fish in the sea because that would be an exaggeration. However there's a just a whole lot of different tribes and kinds of tribes out there in the world of man.

Tribalism has existed among man since we first separated from our ape ancestors and came down out of the trees.  Sociologically it all breaks down to tribe in one form or another.
In the micro scale you see it as loyalty and relationship of  family. Blood relations.  Your mother, your father, your sisters and brothers.  Next scale up is extended family, Aunts, uncles, cousins etc. 
In times past to make or preserve peace or for varying other reasons...one family would marry into another by bonding their sons and daughters. Thereby making, keeping the peace, cementing ties of friendship and power...the reasons for marriage are varied throughout history and that's a whole different discussion on it's own.  

Here's another example of tribe. The social tribes.  Folks who get together for love or enjoyment of one form of art, or what they consider art or another. Love of machines like cars.  Enjoyment in collecting something like guns, knives, books, musical instruments etc etc ad nauseum.   Sports fans are another tribe, choosing to belong to a tribe that share's their love and enjoyment of a game. Cosplayers, Gamers, Geeks, all different tribes with one thing in common. Their love of and enjoyment in sharing what they love with others who feel as they do.  They are tribes of choice. They  choose to belong to that tribe.

What else are the military branches but tribes. Navy, Marines, Army, Air Force etc.  Tribes that give up something, time, some freedoms and time for themselves for their  the smaller tribe, their family to join a larger tribe, the military as a whole, in order to serve the greater good for an even GREATER tribe.   In other words their nation.  They sacrifice some of the smaller tribal needs for the needs of the greater tribe, the nation. 

Nation or nationality is tribalism in Macro or large scale...simplest way I can put it.

Tribes all have varying desires, wants, needs and are GOING to clash. It's just nature.  all nature wars on itself. Plants will strive to grow faster, grow off to the side or even strangle their competitors for sunlight to grow. Small fish are hunted and eaten by other fish, who in turn are hunted by something else right on up the chain.  Insects war among each other for territory and sustenance and supplies for the larder, for the good of that insect tribe.
There isn't but one race, the human race, all else is tribalism.  Once you accept that...[or happen to have a low tolerance for bullshit from the get go] it's a little easier to deal with the "race baiters", and those who cry "racism, racist, hater...etc etc.".  They are in it not to better their tribe but for the betterment of themselves at the EXPENSE of their tribe and everyone else.     It's also a lot of fun to make their heads explode when you explain this stuff to them.  the apoplexy, oh my god the faces turned purple with rage...is down right amusing.  I keep waiting for their heads to explode in the most literal sense of the word, from blood pressure alone, but I keep getting disappointed. Oh well. I can live with that I suppose.

Another sign we're doomed.

A friend of mine on facebook, sweet lady, went to purchase a brand new car today.  They required the names and telephone numbers of 3 people, one of whom could not live at the same address.   When she asked why, she was told...because they had to run the names by DHS to make sure they weren't on some watch list or another.  She said they spent quite a bit of time waiting and wonders how much of that was waiting for DHS to come back with an answer.  Yes apparently such a requirement exists.  It was a part of the Patriot Act signed by Bush the 2nd. It's called the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti Terrorist Financing Act.



The laws enacted are collectively identified as the Customer Identification Programs for Financial Transactions.

Used to be you had to do a credit check, if your credit was good the banks financed you. If not they either wouldn't, period dot, or wouldn't without a co signer and a decent down payment.

Now you gotta give 3 names and phone number and be run by DHS to see if you are on a watch list?
The terrorists and the those intent on grabbing power for power's sake in this country....have won the last several rounds.   I just don't know folks

10 more days.

10 more days until the 12th anniversary of yet another day in US History that will live in infamy.

I'll be doing my usual post on that day. Meanwhile...our government is playing politics, our president is thinking about getting us involved in another one of those "police actions" like they called Vietnam...in a limited way. Getting us involved in yet another country's civil war. A hole in the wall, a hot, sandy, steaming pile of shit called Syria. For what? For the very bio chem weapons that the libs screamed that Bush lied about Saddam having. Sigh. Intelligence reports some of the info from which was released by Bush 2 at the time, stated that before the invasion got underway that Saddam sent his bio chem shit to Syria and planes and other equipment elsewhere.  So what's so fucking shocking about Syria's government using those same chemical weapons on it's own country NOW, much like Saddam did to the kurds?

Sigh...and the saga continues.

The following is a press release by the never to be sufficiently damned, gubbermint.

FACT SHEET: New Executive Actions to Reduce Gun Violence

Today, the Obama administration announced two new common-sense executive actions to keep the most dangerous firearms out of the wrong hands and ban almost all re-imports of military surplus firearms to private entities. These executive actions build on the 23 executive actions that the Vice President recommended as part of the comprehensive gun violence reduction plan and the President unveiled on January 16, 2013.
Even as Congress fails to act on common-sense proposals, like expanding criminal background checks and making gun trafficking a federal crime, the President and Vice President remain committed to using all the tools in their power to make progress toward reducing gun violence.
Building on the 23 Executive Actions the President and Vice President Unveiled Last January

• Last December, the President asked the Vice President to develop a series of recommendations to reduce gun violence. On January 16, 2013, they released these proposals, including 23 executive actions. With the first Senate confirmation of an ATF Director on July 31, 2013, the Administration has completed or made significant progress on 22 of the 23 executive actions. The new executive actions unveiled today build on this successful effort. 

Closing a Loophole to Keep Some of the Most Dangerous Guns Out of the Wrong Hands

• Current law places special restrictions on many of the most dangerous weapons, such as machine guns and short-barreled shotguns.  These weapons must be registered, and in order to lawfully possess them, a prospective buyer must undergo a fingerprint-based background check.
•  However, felons, domestic abusers, and others prohibited from having guns can easily evade the required background check and gain access to machine guns or other particularly dangerous weapons by registering the weapon to a trust or corporation.  At present, when the weapon is registered to a trust or corporation, no background check is run.  ATF reports that last year alone, it received more than 39,000 requests for transfers of these restricted firearms to trusts or corporations.
• Today, ATF is issuing a new proposed regulation to close this loophole.  The proposed rule requires individuals associated with trusts or corporations that acquire these types of weapons to undergo background checks, just as these individuals would if the weapons were registered to them individually.  By closing this loophole, the regulation will ensure that machine guns and other particularly dangerous weapons do not end up in the wrong hands.

Keeping Surplus Military Weapons Off Our Streets

• When the United States provides military firearms to its allies, either as direct commercial sales or through the foreign military sales or military assistance programs, those firearms may not be imported back into the United States without U.S. government approval.  Since 2005, the U.S. Government has authorized requests to re import more than 250,000 of these firearms.
• Today, the Administration is announcing a new policy of denying requests to bring military-grade firearms back into the United States to private entities, with only a few exceptions such as for museums.  This new policy will help keep military-grade firearms off our streets.
  
  ******************************************************************************
  So.....to clarify we can sell excess weapons to people who generally don't like us, only tolerate us for the money we give them or the weapons we sell them. Or in some cases people that flat out hate us, but...nope...can't sell those same guns to American Citizens.  Clearly 'we the people' are too dangerous. Because a great many of us like to actually THINK.

Whats wrong with the world today?

Okay, those of you that actually know me in real life, know I'm highly intelligent. I just gave up on being what most people consider "polite" in polite society because well...polite society has become a bad joke. So forewarned is forearmed.  In other words... YES you silly shits I'm gonna cuss like the sailor my daddy most assuredly WAS!.



And that is all the warning you are going to get. Now onward and cussward [Hey look! I done made up a new word! lol]

Quit your bitching! I know it's been a coons age, or may even seem longer than that, say...since before christ himself was a kid?  Since I last posted.  I bowed to my own better nature and refrained from posting what I was thinking on everything going on in the world because it all would most assuredly have been nothing but REALLY profanity laced diatribes against quite a few people and institutions.  Besides you people have heard most everything I would have said already. Since I've said a good bit of it REPEATEDLY on this here blog. So as I said, I refrained from doing so. I don't know why. I probably shouldn't have in retrospect. Since one of the outlets for my temper at the stupidity of my fellow man is this blog.  Needless to say sitting on my temper ain't improved it much, so mayhap I'll go back to writing on this thing on a regular basis. OTOH maybe it will only be semi regular. We'll see but by the shortness of my temper lately, it's clearly time to go back to my ranting, diatribey[it is SO a word I just made it up! hush!] writing on here.

Now back to the header question?  What's wrong with the world today?  Well it's gone to hell in a handbasket. Yeah I know it's gone there before but I think it's a little more serious about the descent into hell this time, hand basket or no hand basket.  Exhibit A.

You've got the race baiting, kow towing to the lowest common goddamn denominator in a trial that never should have been. Yes I'm referring to George Zimmerman in Florida.   See the local cops knew it and the local DA knew it. That's why
A. the local PD declined to arrest George Zimmerman and
B. The local DA refused to press charges. because
C. all the evidence they had supported his story!

But oh noooo!  The race baiters shit stain boils on the ass of humanity like the Wrong Reverends  Sharpton and Jackson started screaming racism, THEN that useless quisling dipshit we have for a president opened his lips and wagged his forked tongue and added to the flames by saying "if I had a son, he could have been Trayvon Martin"...
Oh and from the beginning the Progressive Propaganda Ministry deliberately misrepresented both Zimmerman and that thuggish, gang banger wanna be Trayvon all over the 24hr news outlets and local news. IOW, those  misrepresentations WERE lies. They WERE propaganda...to forward the narrative that George Zimmerman was an evil racist white man who hunted down a helpless young black boy just like the KKK to lynch him. and that Trayvon was an innocent 12yr old kid who was doing nothing wrong...he was just walking along,  minding his own business. To get the state to act wrongly and unilaterally where the locals refused to act because the evidence supported Zimmerman.  So the state...grandstanding and kow towing to the lowest common denominator appointed the State Attorney to try the case and brought charges against Zimmerman where there should have been none. Why? Political grandstanding.  This was to score points to keep people in office.

Exhibit B.
Do we hear the same outrage and calls for justice for Chris Lane?  Nope..because the 3 perps were black and racist and Chris Lane was white. Hell they murdered Lane in part because they were bored!  Bored? fucking seriously? go in your bedrooms, get out the playboys, hustlers and what have you that your not supposed to have and jack off! Go outside and cut the fucking grass, offer to help a neighbor prune back a tree or paint the house. But to murder someone because you are bored?  WHAT THE FUCK?! 

 




Or what about 12yr old Autumn Pasquale?  Strangled, murdered and body stuffed in a GARBAGE can by a 16 and 17yr old brothers...for her BIKE!  Nope...not getting the coverage of the George Zimmerman case. Why?  Because the perps were black and the victim was white.  Because it doesn't fit the narrative, the propaganda...the flat out fucking LIE of the downtrodden, misunderstood, held underfoot by evil republican racist whites, black man. THAT is why this kind of thing doesn't get the coverage of Trayvon Martin.


C.  back to that quisling douche in the white house.  What he wants to involve us in Syria?  I'm rapidly losing what little patience I had for the problems of the middle east. No stay the fuck out of it and let them kill each other in wholesale job lots. Maybe the survivors will be a little for the wiser but I seriously doubt it. They've been killing each other over there for generations. We aren't going to stop that or change it. 


D. the continuing campaign to disarm the populace so the progs can grab total power. Unfortunately there's this little thing called the Constitution standing in their way.  Don't believe it?  Pay attention...

here's the latest try by a couple of progressive power grabbing ass gobblers.
 H.R. 3018. An attempt to make it too expensive for the common man to own a weapon by imposing usurious taxes on the sale of weapons and ammunition.
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c113:H.R.3018:

According to a couple friends who pay even more attention than I do...it's not the first time the power hungry in DC..have tried this little stunt.  Now to be blatantly honest, it's in committee  now and I fully expect it to DIE there.  That doesn't mean they won't keep trying though.

E. The education system...oh man I don't even want to get started on that one. Suffice to say the progs have been busily ham stringing the education system, making it instead of a system to encourage learning and critical thinking skills, a factory for churning out lobotomized button pushing automatons who FEEL instead of THINK.  I think I gave this one it's own long rant a while back so I'll refrain from going any further on this one.

F. The NSA spying on americans. 

G. The IRS targeting conservative/tea party groups. 

In short our government has systematically destroyed institutions and concepts that made this country strong. Institutions that made us the greatest nation on earth, and replaced them with touch feely bullshit to control the masses.  As much as I despise most of humanity, as much as I hate what has been done to this country...it's still the only game in town. All though it's rapidly going down the shitter. Once that happens...well that's another post.

Sigh all this just off the top of my head from the last several months. Sooo much more I could mention.

Remember! TANSTAAFL and...
