ONE LAW?

I have a list of them. May I include a group of them, as in each legal voter would be allowed one vote and no one would be permitted to vote for anyone else.

The trick is that in order for that to happen, many laws would have to be changed, mainly in registering. Honest efforts would be needed to make sure that those laws and the old laws would need to be followed.

What i would really hope for is for folks to follow the ones we have. Instead we have an army of lawyers that help those who are dishonest find ways around the spirit of the law.

Then too, there are those who openly, intentionally ignore the laws we already have without penalty. This even to the point they make no attempt to hide it.

Indeed the law ignorer in chief sits in a chair, behind a big nice desk, in an oval office, in a big white house, on Pennsylvania Ave. sometimes. When he isn’t taking a nap.

Old Joe says he needs laws to control the border while he ignores the oodles of laws that are there. If he had more laws, he would ignore them too, that is, unless he could use them to lock up those that actually seek to properly enforce the laws we have.

Daily writing prompt
If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?

Intelligence !

Can it possibly be that I am the only one who has considered the intelligence that we, as a nation, are giving to all of our advisories by shooting down all the drones? To be sure, we are saving lives by shooting them down in the short term.

On the other hand, might it be that we are telling the enemy our capabilities. Better to avoid using shooting the things out of the sky.

How do we avoid such things? First, never, never publish our successes, and for sure, we shouldn’t let the enemy know of his success.

It is basic war tactics, and I mean very basic. Make them pay to find out such things. Make them guess to find out where they succeeded or failed. If allied soldiers die, what purpose does it accomplish to tell the enemy. If we all survive, why tell the world?

For another thing, always strike back as if they had enormous success. Not only does it make the enemy pay, they know little or nothing of their success. It is far better to keep them guessing…about it all.

Incidentally, if we decide to send a few bombers in, let’s not let them know in advance or after. The only thing we let them know is that it might have been us, maybe because of what they tried to do to us.

Best… keep them in the dark, or at least only let them know what we want them know. And we don’t want them to be sure of that.

On the other hand, it just might be turning out as Old Joe wants. That is, let the enemy know everything and keep us in the dark. He does make me wonder who he considers the friends or the foes.

The Method of the Wolf

As the wolf pack approaches the herd of buffalo they know they stand no chance against the herd. Therefore, likely to some degree by instinct, they seek to separate out the one. Generally, they look for the week one or the one that doesn’t remain close to the heard. The stragglers are the natural target of the pack.

The herd has not the intelligence to know that if they were to always charge the wolves instead of running away, the pack would have to search for dinner elsewhere. The wolf diet would not include buffalo. There is no way the pack could survive the trampling of so many hooves.

We as humans know better than the buffalo, right.

Yet, when Hitler took over Germany, he used the same method as the wolves. When he took over most of Europe, he used the same methods as the wolves. When the Bolshivics took Russia, they used the method of the wolves.

We called it the domino affect, where one small nation falls after the other. However, the truth is they were following the example of the wolves, whether or not they were aware of it. Always seek out the weak and separate. Then in days, they take over Hungary or Romania. The method failed in Afghanistan, but because of the help of the US.

Today, even at this time, the communists play the part of the wolfpack. They have imprisoned hundreds of innocent people from January 6. We, the herd, did nothing. Now what stands in the way. The herd has been scattered and we are in fear.

We live in fear of the woke and we live in fear of a justice system that is controlled by the wolfpack.

Logic 101

The consonances of the libs is never chase the criminal unless they have committed a violent crime. Okay. No problem. New instructions for police. Just let them continue to commit crimes until they commit a violent crime. Then, go get them.

Down here in Desoto County, we don’t do things that way. If we catch him the first time, we just might keep him from committing that violent crime. That way, we don’t have so many violent crimes. That way we don’t have so many folks killed while sitting in the living room watching the football game.

I wonder if I could interest anyone on bullet-proofing their home. I think I can do it for the right price.

Christian Music?

I had an idea I suggested to my wife. If I had a restaurant, I would not be able to be biased and hire only Christians. It wouldn’t be long before some atheist, Israeli or Arab would complain. Let me note at this time, I would have no problem hiring a Jew. I might even go out of my way to hire one or two. However, it does help me with explaining the concept.

You see, I would make sure that every third or forth piece of music played over the speakers would be Christian. It would have two effects. First, I would not get many atheist applicants. They would not enjoy the music. Second, most potential atheist customers would go somewhere else.

That is not so bad. My employees would mostly be Christian and my customers would be mostly Christian. Also, it would not be a bad thing to have a few customers saved in my place. I would not mind that.

Then my wife hit me with reality. I hate it when she does that. She suggested that I just might anger some atheist to the point that he would destroy the place and possibly hurt a few of the customers too. It is true, non-Christians can get violent, especially atheists who find themselves listening to Gospel music because they were dragged in there by their parents.

Well, none of that will happen anyway. I don’t have the money to start a place and I’m too old. Yet, another thought occurred to me, sort of the same but different. What if we had a constitutional amendment requiring Christian music be played in The House and Senate any time that no one is speaking, such as during votes. Just maybe it would encourage only Christians run for Congress.

Well a person can dream. Even if the amendment passed, the they’d just wear noise canceling ear phones. You just can’t force a person into Christianity. You can’t even make them listen to Christian music. What a shame. Just might improve things in this country… a lot more than anti gun laws, which the Godless will ignore.

Better for the nation to turn to Jesus. Also, better to put the criminals in prison. The guns don’t hurt people. The criminal will kill people if they have to make their own guns.

Like a Room Full of Kids

After a tragic event, I prefer to hold my comments to myself for a week or two. Frequently, if I jump too early, I end up eating my words.

Tonight, I have decided to say a few words about the tragedy in Hawaii. I thought about writing immediately after but I am glad I waited for things to unfold. The one thing I noticed is that it was similar to walking into a room full of kids where something was spilled causing substantial damage. When I ask who did it, the kids, in chorus say, loudly, “Not me.”

Ever since the disaster a great deal of time has been wasted pointing fingers. This one says this and that one says that. I guess none of those fellas was in the Marines. They wouldn’t have done that. It is very shameful behavior by them all.

As I see it, someone squandered a good opportunity. If one would have raised his hand and said, “It’s my fault and I apologize. I didn’t see it coming and I should have. I assure you, I will not make that mistake again and I need to do what I can to see to it that we recover as much as we can as quickly as we can. After, in the aftermath, we need to take a good hard look at what happened and, in as much as possible, make sure that it is never repeated.”

I suspect that any man (or woman) who said that would have the full attention and the loyalty of his friends and constituents. In general, people don’t like it when people mess things up. Even more, they will generally respect the man who owns it.

I learned it day one in boot camp, don’t make mistakes and when you do, admit to them. It seems a little contradictory. It effectively goes against the natural behavior, but it is the most important thing a leader can do. It’s kind important for the followers too. It is hard to face up to our shortcomings, but those who attempt deception will pay the price, especially when it is so obvious.

I Was Just Curious

From the time I was seven, I was brought up near Disneyland. Actually, that’s not 100% true. The theme park was just an orange grove at the time.

Yup. For some time, when we passed the spot, the remark was made, “That’s where they’re building Disneyland.” Perhaps the one thing that was most visible was the Peter Pan pirate ship.

The transformation that followed was simply unimaginable. The area around Disneyland went from orange trees to hotels, motels, restaurants and parking lots.

The whole Disney empire exploded as well. The studio turned out one huge success after success. The theme park grew in size and attendance.

First time I attended, it was about 3 or 4 dollars a person. If you didn’t go on the rides, that was it. Most, however, bought books which included admission, a few each of A through E tickets. The A tickets, well, most used about half of them. The prize tickets were the E tickets. Invariably, most bought extra E tickets.

For a while it actually caused a frequently used expression, “Well, that was an E ticket,” implying it was a really good experience.

Well. Things have changed and they have changed. Just getting into the park is horribly expensive. I don’t know how people afford it.

Just out of curiosity, I looked it up on line. First, I had a difficult time determining what it costs for 1 day. All the quotes I saw were for three days or for multi-park costs. It seemed to me a classic up salesmanship.

It is as if, if I want just a day in the park, then they have no interest in me. Well, I did find the cost, sortof. It changes, depending on the time of the year.

Well, they may not have much interest in me. The feeling is mutual. Ever since Walt Disney died, the whole empire has been taking a dive, big time. Their movies are failing. Their park attendance is slipping and even ABC is having problems.

It’s sort-of what happens when companies go woke. It’s sort of what happens when they produce children’s movies with adult subjects and inappropriate material in them.

Moreover, they seem to lack originality. They keep redoing old movies with a woke touch. It just really doesn’t work. Most parents won’t put up with it.

It’s showing up on Disney’s bottom line and they just don’t get it. It would seem they believe that if they keep trying, that round peg is going to go though that square hole.

Controllers in Control of the Churches

It is no new idea of mine that it is time for our churches to rid themselves of control by DC. One might ask, “How is Washington controlling our churches?” By the tax-exempt status. The law says that if the preacher speaks on politics, then they are in danger of losing their tax-exempt status. Therefore, they don’t speak on politics. Therefore, DC controls the subject from the pulpits. It is the same way that Washington controls the schools, the speed limits and who knows how many other things.

But, if we give up our exempt status, then people will stop giving to the church. They will go to other churches. Sounds just exactly like what they want us to say. Hence, I say, DC has control of the churches. Right now, it is in a minor way. However, I suggest it will only get worse, not better.

Moreover, I don’t think God likes the idea of Old Joe controlling what is said from the pulpit. If God directs the preacher to speak on the subject, regardless of the subject, Joe really ought not have any say.

Next, do they call abortion a political issue. Already, it is getting difficult to bring up homosexuality, though the Bible makes it quite clear that it is not political. What happens when Old Man Joe fusses for churches speaking about January 6. The instant a preacher says those imprisoned should be pardoned, bang, there goes the tax status.

After a while, the line between politics and religion will be blurred more and more through time. Better that we lie down the gauntlet now. Tell them, it’s First Amendment territory. They have no business telling us what we preach or when we preach it. It is called freedom of speech. It’s called freedom of religion. It’s not called Remote control by DC by improper taxation.

We might lose some folks from the pews. Maybe it is better.

Then again, those churches that don’t mind receiving instruction from DC, then, by all means, say nothing about politics. Say nothing about abortion. Say nothing homosexuality. Careful about what say about crime and law enforcement. Mostly, don’t say a word about the candidates and what they believe. If we take money, then it’s not legal.

As my aside. Bear in mind, there are churches that have no problems maintaining their tax-exempt status while talking about politics, politicians and even encouraging politicians to speak from their podiums. They teach what the dems teach and they have no difficulty in blatantly disobeying the law. The dems have no difficulty blatantly ignoring the disobedience. And of course, one must be very careful about pointing this out.

Another Word on Responsibility

Just now heard a joke on the radio. It was supposedly Hunter Biden on the phone, who said, “Say, Pops. Have you seen my laptop?”

Of course, it was not Hunter Biden who was speaking, but it was Hunter who lost his laptop, his gun and “forgot” to report income for two years. Considering that’s likely not a tenth of it, I think we can assume that he is the epidemy of irresponsibility. This was a man who, with the help of his Pops, became an officer in the military. Now let me see. Aren’t military officers supposed to be responsible? I certainly would not want him as my commanding officer. I actually don’t think many would. Certainly not in battle.

So. When we need a person to point out when we want an example of irresponsibility, he’d be the first one I’d think of, he and his Pops. And, of course, all the while, the reporters keep turning a blind eye. That’s irresponsibility too.
