In the News

Many pro Hamas people assaulted the White House fence in an effort enter the White House itself. Of course, the assault was stopped and they even arrested one of the perpetrators.

Now wait a minute. On January 6, how many did they arrest? In fact they arrested people who never entered the building. They are blaming it all on President Trump and he did all he could to prevent it.

I have two assumptions. 1. The dems wanted the recent assault on the White House. 2. They wanted the crowd to enter Capitol on Jan 6. It served their purposes in both cases. It is why Pelosi turned down the National Guard Trump offered. It why Eps waved people into the building and never spent a day in jail for it.

You don’t like the news. It’s all there in b&w for anyone who really wants to know.

A Suggestion for Our Constabulary

Posted in Crime, Electectric vehicles, FOC, law enforcement, Lawyers and Representation by

It would seem the libs don’t like it when our fine law enforcement officers give chase to possibly and/or probable criminals while afoot. Some have or are trying to make it illegal. Don’t ask me wny. I do know the libs do their best to distort and twist and otherwise outright lie about the truth for their benefit.

The gauchos of Argentina just might have the tool to do the job. Down there they use bolos instead of lariats on cattle and, from what I here, they are effective. If they can take down a steer, don’t you think they might take down a desperado. Maybe they can toss the things from auto or motorcycle.

The bolo is basically 3 balls tied together with rope. Always seemed odd to me they don’t use just 2. Then who am I to say? Never used any kind of bolo, let alone on cattle.

At any rate, the gauchos hold onto the horse’s rein with 1 hand and twirl the bolo with the other. Then, at just the right time, they throw the bolo. When it hits the steer’s lower rear legs, it wraps around them, bringing it down.

Now, as you think about that, don’t you think that might be a good tool for an officer to carry aground? I don’t know. They already have a lot to carry. Maybe they could just keep 1 or 2 handy in their autos, which, by the way, by necessity must be battery powered in the future. After all, if Detroit stops building gas cars, where will our law enforcement officers going to get anything but electronic cars.

My Prophecy Has Come True

Posted in Driver-less cars, Lawyers and Representation, Politcal Opinion by

I am not a prophet but sometimes I can foretell the future. It doesn’t take a special ability from above, just a little observation and reasoning.

My prediction was a simple one. Self-driving cars will not be successful for decades, if not longer. My reasoning was and is very simple. I have no doubt that they will soon have Self-driving cars safer than those driven by humans.

Compared to humans, computers react, effectively instantly. Perhaps, more important, they are not distracted. The nice thing is that the computer controlled car would be able to follow much closer and still be safe.

The hitch has not one thing to do with the cars or computers. It’s the law and the legal system. I saw today that Tesla was sued by a Tesla owner. The driver tried to claim that Tesla was at fault for an accident, but Tesla was found not at fault.

Let’s look at the possibilities. As it turned out, Tesla was out the cost of providing a defense, even though they were not at fault. For one case, that’s not much. When the number of cars increases, then so will the costs of lawyers.

At some point Tesla, and others, will need to buy insurance to pay for settling the thousands of suits. It will have to happen. Every day, I see these Morgan and Morgan commercials. I suspect they are already exploring the possibility of settling the first million dollar law suit.

My guess is, after a few of those, guilty or not, those Self-driving vehicles will become to fade from view.

There are but two things that will allow their return. Either perfect computers and/or a revision of the laws. Regardless, I really believe the revision of our law is in order.

No one group of people has beneted from the tort laws than the lawyers. Considering that it is mostly lawyers that write the laws, I don’t expect any change in the next decade or two.

So, Self-driving cars will have to wait for perfect computers. When that happens, there will be many disappointed lawyers.

Still, there will be accidents. Then, lawyers will converge to get their share of contingency money.

What do I Remember?

Posted in A Little About me, Christian values, Elections, law enforcement, Lawyers and Representation, Memories by

What major historical events do you remember?

I am 73. All of them. Okay. A small exaggeration. Just most of them.

Seems to me, I already wrote a post remotely on this subject, titled, “Remember the Alamo.” My contemplation was that we don’t. Not really. Many of us saw the horrid things that happened on 9/11 and yet all too quickly, it all fades from our memories. I know this because we permit aliens to swamp our border personnel to the point where they serve little purpose.

If we really remembered 9/11, we would be sure to catch and check everyone trying to get into this country. Even at the state that the border is in, they are sure that there are those who have gotten into this country who would love a repeat of 9/11 and worse.

Yes, I do remember many shootings, in our schools, our malls and even military bases. And yet the dems let the criminals out on the streets without bond, soon after performing all manor of serious crimes, all in the name of equality, not equal, mind you, but equality.

I remember a time when kids mostly had two parents, the movie playing at the local theater had no rating and no one was shooting up the schools. You suppose we did something wrong. You suppose we should turn around and go back to whence we came? You suppose we should start allowing God in our schools. Just perhaps we should say our prayers before rather than after the disasters. Maybe we should be more careful as to what we permit Hollywood to put on the big screen.

Just maybe, it would be a good idea to tame the commercials a little. In my youth, those selling bras resorted to models wearing the bras on the outside of clothing so that they could show them on TV. Children have new words added to their vocabulary these days, such as ED, and new ways of using words, such as performance enhancing.

Of course we can change channels simply turn off the TV before such commercials. It just is do you suppose they can issue warnings a minute or so before airing a commercial with adult content, as they do with programs? Then again, maybe TVs could be made where the parents could disable commercials with adult content.

It is a different world today, with many improvements. Then again, maybe we should not have made some of those changes. Maybe the world would be better. Maybe it would be safer if the kids all had two parents, one male, one female. Just maybe God knew what he was doing when he made it that way.

The Side Effects

Just saw an interesting story on TV. The headline basically was that Tennessee was falling short on tax projected revenues. Why should this be a surprise to anyone? Yet it is. Some people just don’t get it. When the economy is good, tax revenues will be good. When the economy goes into the tank, then so will the revenues, being as most revenues in some way, are based on trade.

During President Trump’s early presidency, the economy and revenues were up, even at the state and local levels. Then along came the virus and the economy was partially shut down. Soon after, the revenues were dramatically reduced.

Surprise, surprise. The only way to truly increase revenue is to improve the economy. True; increases in taxes will temporarily increase revenue. However, in the long term, the economy determines the revenues. When taxes are too high, it chokes the economy and discourages production, enterprise, and, of course, buying.

Certainly other factors contributed: riots, mass looting in stores, intentional increases in energy prices and increases in tax rates contributed to economic downturns.

However, I put the primary cause on Fauci, who provided economic support to the development of the China virus, as well as making one decision after the next that resulted in disaster after disaster. However, the damage that Fauci caused did not stop in our pocketbooks. Many can attest to the horrid damage in human lives as well.

During the seventies and eighties I did do some flying, not a whole lot, just enough that it got old. One day when I was waiting in a lobby out front of the ticket counter, I glanced over and saw these symbols. The ceilings were very high and the symbols were quite a distance away.

There were 3 of them. On the left, there was depiction of a woman. Below it was a ladies room. On the right was a depiction of a man. Below it was a men’s room. Then, right in the middle there was a question mark. Below it, well it was an information desk.

I can’t help thinking back over it and the implications. I wonder from time to time if they ever changed it. However, in this day and age, it does have new meaning doesn’t it. I mean we are now in a world where we can’t determine a gender. So, maybe in the future, those who don’t know what they are, they can go to the desk below the question mark. Maybe, after a complete exam, they can provide the info they are after. Perhaps, THEY can point them in the right direction.

Then again, besides the woke, who needs an exam at all.

As a short aside, I wonder just why it is that the US is about the only country so dumb that men and women cannot be determined, even by a Supreme Court justice.

Who is at Fault?

Posted in Biden, Christian values, Deceit, Growing Old, Kamala Harris, Lawyers and Representation, Lobbyists by

Almost one week ago, Hamas started an attack on Israel. Since that time, every life lost was the fault of Hamas or their terrorists friends. Regardless of who pulled trigger, all the blood is on their hands.

And by the way, I would say Old Joe put in his 2 cents but it is actually 6 billion dollars, which he provided by way of Iran. And now he and his are quickly busy trying to deny it. However, he can’t. We all saw him do it. Even most of the media admits it.

To be sure his hands are in the innocent blood all the way to his elbows. Worse, he doesn’t care. His only concern is that he was caught.

Flag Waving

They are coming to America, as the song title says. However, the flag they wave is not the Stars and Stripes. Instead, they prefer the flag of the country from which they come.

Repeatedly, the dems point out that we are a nation of immigrants. True, but always before, the immigrants let go of their old flag, and country; and took up their new flag, and new country.

I don’t know when it changed, but there was a time when dual citizenship was not permitted. If anyone knows the benefits of split allegiance, please let me know.

As Jesus said, a man cannot serve two masters. I do believe that goes to nations as well. For when the time comes for decisions, do you decide for the Stars and Stipes or for your former colors. To be sure, the decisions just might confront you each time you enter a voting booth. Are you, for sure going to vote for the good of the US, or will you maintain your ties to your prior country? Just which country will benefit from your vote?

Which flag gets waved? Which flag gets saluted? In my book, a person ought not gain citizenship until they are ready and willing to put down their former colors.

This is greatly amplified in Congress. There is a Constitutional requirement for the president to be a native born American. It is a shame that there isn’t such a requirement for both houses of Congress. This very day we have people in our Congress who wave foreign flags and they are proud to do it.

There’s just some wrong about that. To whom do they owe their allegiance? For whom do they cast their votes?

Retribution

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Build the Wall!, Cease fire between Israel and Gaza, Christian values, Communism, Lawyers and Representation, United Nations by

There is no doubt. In retribution for Iran’s part in the attacks on Israel, we should immediately require Iran to withdraw their ambassador and all of his mission from the US.

Wait a minute. We already did, let’s see, a long time ago. It was done when they took hostages from our embassy.

Now let me see. Again, why is it that Old Joe gave 6 billion to Iran? Just what purpose was it supposed to serve? What good did it serve?

Looks to me like it caused a whole lot of death and destruction, for Israel to be sure. But also for Hamas. Does anyone really think Israel will let Hamas get away with a slap on the wrist?

As usual, the dems are doing the things that result in death.

Oh yes. And by the way. This just might be the start of something bigger.

Let’s all say… thank you, Joe. Thank you very much. And let’s not forget all the puppeteers who are pulling Old Joe’s strings.

As my aside… Aren’t you really glad of all the United Nation was able to do. Sure am glad that they were able to do so much to preempt the disaster. Wait a minute. I am not sure they did one little thing to stop the attack. My guess is that, as usual, they were useless.

It’s a Never-fit

Posted in Growing Old, Lawyers and Representation, Lobbyists, Our Legal Systems, Priorities by

Did you ever notice Social Security cards are always slightly too large for a wallet? I wonder if that is intentional. Maybe they don’t want us carrying the card with us. On the other hand, it is conceivable that no one ever thought of it.

For that matter, maybe no one gave it any thought at all. You know, for years, after I lost my card, I didn’t have one. I knew my number and never needed the card.

Nowadays, frequently, they ask for license and Social Security card. So I had to get another. I guess when I die, it will have to be buried with me. Better not lose it again. They won’t be able to bury me.
