Don’t Point

Posted in Uncategorized by

I can remember, believe it or not, when I was 4, being told, “Don’t point. It’s not polite.”

Really, I am not writing this to brag about my memory. The thing is I was not much older when I was taught not to point a gun.

I have written before about gun safety and pointing guns. I should not have to repeat it. I should not have to say anything about it at all. Once a month, it should be repeated on TV. It cannot be repeated too much.

My three safety rules on guns:

  1. Assume all guns are loaded until proven otherwise
  2. Assume all guns are loaded, period.
  3. Do not point a gun at anyone you do not intend to shoot.

Since I posted those three rules last, I’ve added two more. First, make sure there is no one behind anyone you are aiming at. You might miss and hit the one beyond your target. Moreover, the bullet can go through you target and hit the one behind. Actually, it is something of an extension of rule 3. Finally, don’t shoot unless you are in danger. Do not shoot to protect someone else unless you are ready to go to prison for it. I guess it is sort of that way if you are in danger. You might still end up in jail but, at least you’ll still be alive.

It is a fact, if you shoot someone or if you shoot at someone and you can’t come up with a good reason, there is a good probability that you will go to jail.

As a side note: even if you are completely justified, it is something that will stay with you the rest of your life.

You might wonder why I brought up the subject. That actor is again saying it was an accident. He is pleading not-guilty because he didn’t pull the trigger. It doesn’t matter. He pointed the gun at the woman. Moreover, though he was told the gun was safe, he never checked it. (Rule 1)

I believe he should be convicted and go to prison. He’ll be lucky it will be just 18 months. Fact is, even if the gun never went off, he should still get a good hand slap for pointing the gun at the woman.

I did find it interesting that the defense attorney said that he was handed a prop gun. If I were the persecuting attorney, if appropriate, I would have objected. The gun he was handed was not a prop. it was a real gun with at least one real live bullet in it. The fact that it was used as a prop did not change that.

Compound Questions

Posted in Uncategorized by

My brother used to frustrate us when we asked him “compound questions.” We would ask him if he wanted “A” or “B”, offering him a choice. Without exception, he replied “Yes.”

Of course that left us with the question, did he want “A” or did he want “B” or both. Even in cases where one choice excluded the other, we were left with trying to figure out which one he wanted.

I’m sorry. It sort of rubbed off on me. Sometimes, when I am given a choice between two things, I chose both. It does cause some frustration as well as confusion. I know because that is how I felt. Nonetheless, it does teach people to arrange their questions more carefully. It’s sort of like the woman that wrote the survey question about immigration.

When a person asks a yes/no question that cannot be answered with a yes or no, they don’t deserve any answer whatever. In the case of the immigration, yes, I am in favor of legal immigration. No, I am against illegal immigration. When she asked the yes/no question, I upset with it and refused to answer it. I suspect that I was not the only one that was upset with it as I saw a write-up a couple of days later. By the way, it is the reason I refuse to take part in surveys. They like to ask yes/no questions when neither is correct; neither is wrong.

During congressional committee meetings, frequently, they like to ask the compound questions, and expect a yes no answer. Better to expect yes, no, don’t know, or a qualified yes or no. It is the least for a person who is under oath to tell the truth. Questions should not be asked to which there is no truthful reply… certainly not when the person asking the question knows it.

Regardless, I do get a little perturbed when someone tries to put me in one box or the other based on a question for which there is no proper answer.

Politically Confused

Posted in Uncategorized by

I’ve looked for the proper clinical term. At first I thought it was schizophrenia, then simply split personality. I even looked up confused personality. None of these seem to truly fit. Nonetheless, the dems seem to have one political goal at one time; and another goal at another time.

People start having riots, tearing down statues and destroying buildings and they call it “mostly peaceful” demonstrations. People are invited into the Capitol building by capitol police and never hurt anyone, and the dems call it insurrection. Old Joe does all he can do to bypass The Constitution to forgive all the student loans and he is hailed as a hero. On the other hand, at every effort for the Republicans to control the outbreak of crimes and suddenly Old Joe complains in the name of defending constitutional rights.

It has become obvious that their two faced political endeavors have but one motive, power. In their goal to gain that power, they are bound and determined to destroy all that is in their way. They don’t walk over the Constitution in that effort but run over it. They destroy the flag that the great men of WWII fought for. They confuse the meaning of words and they make sure that anyone that points this out are destroyed, just as Hitler did, just as Lenin did, just as Stalin did. Make no mistake, they have the same goals as they did.

They complain that Trump is trying to become “king,” while all the time trying to set up their dictatorship.

The real hiccup for the dems these days is Old Joe. He has been discovered and now he is no longer an asset. He is the object in the way. He has become the barrier, their hindrance. By the dems, he is no longer the human that was was helping, but has become the inanimate hurdle they must clear before they can continue their march to domination.

And so it is, one minute they will do what the claim is right and the next minute condemn someone else for the same thing. To be sure, all the time they try to condemn Trump for that which he has not done, they do the very thing they claim Trump did. Of course, if Trump had done it, it would be horribly wrong, while all the time the dems do it, and it’s right and proper.

And so it is, one day, they have the one personality, and the next day, they have the other personality. They are not truly dual personality as people who have such an illness is involuntary. The multi-personalities of dems have are planned and intentional. If the dems truly have any mental disorder, it is caused by the desire for power. They truly have goals of ruling the world, just as is prophesied in the Bible. One world government, one world ruler. It has been the devils goal for thousands of years.

The Great Pretender

Posted in Abuse of Power, Biden, Kamala, Mistakes, Politcal Opinion, Social Media by

Somewhat staying with the music idea, let’s say a word about the 1955 Platters song “The Great Pretender.” Though it is an old song, it has a staying power. Just a wild guess, but I would guess that at least 60% of the the current US population have at least heard the song once. Quite frankly, I can see why. The tune is nice, but the words really hit home with just about all of us. Well, maybe, all of us. Certainly most of us have felt like singing the words right out loud, and mean them.

Indeed, most of us do some real pretending, pretending that everything is okay. We are doing just fine while we are breaking up inside. We don’t want the world to know just how much we are hurting.

Well, to me, the song, or at least the title has new meaning. You see, the dems are now the great pretenders. They have been pretending that everything is fine. Old Joe’s doing fine and his mental faculties are that of a forty-year-old. Now, things have changed. Their secret is out. I dare say close to 99% of the country now knows of his mental problems.

How-some-ever, the pretending has changed. You see, they all knew all the time, especially those that saw Old Joe on a regular basis. However, they pretend they didn’t know. They pretend that they are as surprised as the rest of us. No one wants to admit their part in the pretense.

The reality was… they knew alright and they knew all the time. It just is they they also knew they didn’t want us to know.

Now there is panic. Do they keep pretending Old Joe’s fine in spite of what the world has seen? Do they try to get him to step aside? Do they invoke amendment 25? All the choices have problems. All solutions have advantages.

For instant, if they invoke 25th, it is only a temporary solution. Old Joe is still on the ballot unless they can figure out some way to get him off of it. If he refuses to step aside, he will be selected on the first ballot at the Democrat convention as the nominee. I see no way around it. Even if he does step aside, the party really has a big black eye, trying to force a mentally disabled man on the country.

As I see it, maybe the best possibility is to allow Joe to run, and then immediately remove him with the 25th. As I say, It might be the best possibility, but it would appear, the best ain’t good. It would have to improve some to be poor. I’m really not looking forward to listening to Kamala’s voice for the next 4 years.

At any rate, we can now denote the Democrat Party as the party of the Great Pretenders.

Culpable

Posted in Uncategorized by

We now know many who are not only lacking credibility, but they are culpable. Being culpable, they have disqualified themselves as proper possibilities as candidates for president. That is to say, they acted in concert to fool and deceive. It is easy to know who they are. We know Kamala is definitely culpable because she is in frequent proximity to Joe. She sees him on a regular basis. This is particularly important because, guess what? She is next in line. If Joe should bail out for any reason, she will assume the reins. She will take up residence in The White House and she will sit behind the desk in The Oval Office.

Now isn’t that reassuring that we have a woman standing in the wings that is qualified by two things. She is a woman and she is Black, by Joe’s own words. On the other hand, we also know that honesty is the furthest thing from her mind. Deceit was her main job for over three years, and, by the way, she seems to have done it well. Never once did she admit that Joe should be removed.

Moreover, she just might be one of those the dems are thinking about to run against Trump. Now let’s see. Do we really want someone for President that that has specialized in deceit. Do we want someone who was given the task of dealing with the problems on the Mexican border and failed miserably.

Oh, by the way, her methods to gain the office of district attorney was that she had a law degree and slept with the right men. Sorry, I am among those in this country, rare though we be, that would call such a thing a disqualification.

On the other hand the dems might run the current gov of California. Let’s see. He is neither Black nor a woman. That seems to disqualify him out of the starting gates, don’t you know? Besides, he needs to defend himself too. Don’t you think he was in with those who knew about the great deceit. That also makes him a liar. He did say that Old Joe was highly qualified. Saying that, he would either have to admit to massive dishonesty or massive stupidity. As I think that over, maybe he’d be completely honest in pleading both. I mean, he did provide a demonstration on how to drive one of the largest state’s economy from a small positive to a huge negative. Do we really want that man signing the checks for the US?

Then there’s Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama. I don’t think I want anyone connected to Obama in The Oval Office. She didn’t like the country, by her own words. Regardless, she says she doesn’t want the job. Even if they talk her into running, do we really want her as president. Well, she is a woman. She is Black. She does have the major qualifications these days. However, do we really want a person as pres. who openly hates the country. Besides, her first act would be to lie as she takes her oath to defend the the nation and the constitution. She will do neither and she knows it. And by the way, we are well aware of it too.

It does leave the dems in a quandary. It would seem the best candidate they can field really is Old Joe.

So. Do the dems just give up now seeing the situation? Nope. Of course not. The dems never give up. They just cheat… every which way they can.

The Democracy vs the Republic

Posted in Uncategorized by

It is a shame but the vast populace of the US get the two terms confused. You don’t need to take my word for it, but they are not the same. You can look it up. Moreover, though the Democrats would like us to believe we live in a democracy we don’t and never did.

The fact is that we live in a representative republic. No sane person who knows and understands what a democracy is would want to live in a true democracy. Let’s consider a home owner’s association run totally by democracy. Let’s also assume that there are 100 members in the association.

At this point, 51 people would control all 100. If 51 people decided that the other 49 needed to pay 55% of the cost of the operating costs, guess what? 51 people would pay 55% of the operating costs. 49 people would pay only 45 % of the operating costs.

“Unfair!” you say. And it is. It is the weakness of the democracy. The minority would always be at the mercy of the majority. It is why, when they wrote the Constitution, they decided on a representative republic. The same problem, to some degree still exits, however, there are some advantages in the republic in that there are protections in the system for the minority. The majority has some limitations over minority.

We do not vote on the laws. We vote for people who write and vote on the laws. As such, the majority has it’s limits. There were many things in the constitution that keep the majority from rough-riding over a small group, or even an individual. Certainly, The Ten Amendments are a big part of it. By them, individuals and groups are protected from the government, which represents the majority.

Theoretically, before a man can be imprisoned, he must be convicted of a crime. Moreover, there is great care to make sure that many rights must be observed. Laws and procedures must be followed. Moreover, there are higher courts to make sure of this.

The democrats don’t like these procedures. President Trump was convicted outside a proper trial system. It will very likely at some point be overturned. Nonetheless, it shows what happens when the mass takes control, a true democracy. Virtually all of Trumps rights have been sidestepped by a biased system. The whole court system, even the jury was strongly biased. They needed no proof. The prosecutor could have stood before them and said he’s guilty and they would have returned a guilty verdict on the spot.

No one, but not one person should be glad at what happened. It is the 51% ruling over 49% regardless of the evidence. AND it can happen to all of us. If it can happen to a multi-billionaire, it most certainly can happen to a penniless man in the slums, no matter what color his skin is.

One of the most important and overlooked amendments is the tenth, in which all authority which is not explicitly given to the federal government is supposed to be reserved to the states and the people. Nowadays, it is mostly ignore. Some laugh at the few important words. If it were properly observed, there would be no department of education. There would be no FEMA. It was a good thing that the north won the Civil War. However, the the 10th Amendment was one of the casualties of the war. Since the war ended, not many pay attention to it. And we truly suffer because of it.

I have a question concerning this. Do we really want to put the national government in charge of deciding what we teach and and how we teach our kids. It is how Hitler took over in Germany, through the schools, and quickly. Better that schools be controlled as local as possible.

When The Constitution was first ratified, senators were selected by the state assemblies. The idea was, the people selected the representatives and the states select the senators. A constitutional amendment ended that, as well as all representation of the states. It was a horrible blow to the concept of a republic.

Now, another aspect of the republic is apparently sitting on the chopping block. If it falls, it will be devastating. The majority will have their rule. The president will be selected by the majority and the communists will take over. Maybe not immediately, but soon.

Believe it or not, their is a purpose to the Electoral College. I suppose if we do away with it, we’ll find out about it. Maybe a little late.

Watch, No Prison Time For Hunter

Posted in Uncategorized by

Remember, Hunter knows where all the skeletons are. He knows where all the bodies are buried. Behind the scenes, all the pressures are being applied. If it all fails, Old Joe will have to come through or Hunter will write a tell all book. When that happens, Old Joe will be but one of many to suffer.

How-some-ever, Hunter should pay the price. After all, it is the dems who have fought and are fighting for gun laws, such as the those that Hunter broke. Aren’t they trying to take guns away from drug users and mentally ill? Indeed, it is possible that Hunter might have used the gun while under the influence if he had kept it. It is the reason for the law.

If ANY LAW is not enforced, why have the law? if it is not enforced for Hunter, why for anyone? If Hunter is let off, others who are convicted will point the finger and ask, why do I go to prison and he got off Scott free? And they will have a point. They will be able to say he was not punished because of who he knows, especially should he be pardoned or sentence commuted.

One more thing. Hunter had a chance at making a deal and he didn’t. It sort of says, he still thinks he got away with it. He likely will. Old Joe said he did nothing wrong. Maybe its time he admit to Americans Hunter did do something wrong. Perhaps, now Old Joe will admit it to himself.

As an aside. Trump was convicted of a crime invented by the dems, by a dem prosecutor, with a highly biased dem judge, in a city of almost totally dems… and will likely be overturned. It might be overturned even before it reaches The Supreme Court.

Hunter, on the other hand was convicted of a well established law by political friendlies, that is to say, those in the jury likely were not republican. The only appeal likely will be to dear Ol Dad.

Let’s see if knowing the pres. will help him.

Instant Mass Unemployment

Posted in Uncategorized by

The IRS employees over 80 thousand people year round and who knows how many more during tax season. They are provided an 80 billion dollar budget for 2024. It would seem it costs a lot to pay our taxes.

Every year I go to H&R Block and pay them a little over $100 to file my taxes. My best guess, there are many more who keep professional tax preparers employed at least a quarter of the year.

Corporations, especially big ones pay lawyers to make sure they are compliant with current laws, which constantly change. They also pay small armies of accountants to make sure they don’t overpay their taxes.

So, it is easy to come to the conclusion that if all income taxes are done away with, if the IRS is done away with, there would be an instant addition to those among the unemployed that just might rock this country more than the great depression.

No need to concern yourselves. It won’t happen. Your federal government, or rather those who like controlling you within the government, won’t permit it. It would mean giving up their power, which they tenaciously insist on holding onto.

Through the IRS, they monitor what you do; they control what you do; and they make sure you cannot legally exist in this country unless you are recorded and numbered.

Eventually, they will know more about all of us than we will.

It is a well known fact, those that govern, are highly reluctant to give up their power, over the governed.

It seems a good reason for term limits. It also seems a good reason to do away with the IRS. Then, that would mean that those in controle would have to give up their control, which will never happen.

THAT is why controllers hate Trump. He truly forced controllers to give up control. He even willingly gave up presidential power.

As Evil as Hitler?

Posted in Uncategorized by

Repeatedly, I hear people say this man or that man is as bad as Hitler.

Well, let’s see. Just what measure do we use to see who is it that really is like Hitler.

Actually, Hitler was but one of the really bad evil men of the day. Hitler took his lead from Italian dictator, Mussolini. I mean Hitler was well on his way, but he raised his head, looked around, and decided he liked what was going on in Italy.

Then there was Hedeki Tojo. He was the Japanese general who had designs on controlling the entire South Pacific, including Australia. Oh, and by the way, he was already pushing into Eastern Russia and Alaska.

I ask, why is it that people don’t say, “so&so is as bad as Tojo?” It’s always Hitler is the benchmark.

To be sure, there are people in the world today who are evil, maybe even more evil than Hitler, more evil than Musolini, and yes, more evil than Tojo.

I’m not going to call names but rather explain the evil. It’s not new, you know. Let’s see. Who was the character with the fiddle, the one that played it while Rome burned?

Actually, I think he wasn’t the only evil Roman ruler. It just is he is the only one I can think of off the top of my noggin. Please, let’s not forget the Spanish inquisition, which likely killed a bunch of folks because they refused to be Catholic. Oh, I am sure there are many that would like us to forget that one.

You see, evil has, does and will continue to exist until Jesus Christ, Himself puts a stop to it at his second coming.

It exist, firstly because man is evil. No need teach a child to lie, steal or hurt others. It comes naturally. Indeed, a child must be taught not to do these things. If not taught and trained, and disciplined, he very likely will become a monster, conceivably like Hitler, only without all the power. To be sure, even those who are brought up properly can become horrible.

Many of them grow up to be just as bad as Tojo, Musolini, and yes, Hitler. They just don’t have the power, the following, or maybe they don’t have the charisma.

President Trump had the power. He had the following. It’s sort of how you can tell what kind of man he is. He used his position of authority to improve this country, and the world.

The evil people increase taxes. He decreased them. Evil people start wars to gain power. He quickly brought wars to ends and started none. Evil people seek to gain power. Trump was always trying to return power to the people and the states.

Certainly, we should not forget, there is an evil power in this world seeking to give it to evil people. He used to be a very attractive angel. Today he is a demon. He destroys every life he can. He does it through evil people, like Nero, like Hitler, and yes, given the chance, like the Catholic church.

Don’t tell me Trump is evil as Hitler. He had the chance to do evil but he only did good. For this, Satan and his hords of evil doing people have done everything that they can do to destroy him. Now, trying to destroy a man who did only good, that is evil. It is what the likes of the Soviets did. They were not natzi, but they were as bad if not worse.

The Leadership of Pollsters?

Posted in Uncategorized by

There is an earth shaking decision to be made. Immediately, the order is made, “Ask the pollsters. And tell them hurry.”

Is it possible. Is it probable. Can it be that we are the nation being ruled by the pollsters. I guess, in a way, that is ruling by the people. That is to say, if the polls are fair and accurate.

Just how much is the poll being colored by the pollster. The choice of how the question is worded can make a 5 or maybe 10 points difference.

Of course, this is tongue & cheek. Still, I do wonder how many decisions are made based on polls. Consider the border. There was nothing on earth that would change the mind of Old Joe, or the dems for that matter. They are determined to increase their voter base.

Then, what? 5 months from the election, suddenly, Old Joe wants to send illegal aliens home.

Remember, nothing on earth could alter Joe’s mind. Well. Maybe that isn’t so. You see, 5 men with fancy brief cases and charts walk into the Oval Office and, instantly, Joe changed his mind.

Those 5 men, or was it 6. no one knows for sure. They must have been awfully powerful guys. They must have had some very convincing numbers, facts and figures.

Now, Old Joe is in a quandary. How does he keep the border open while blaming it on the Republicans. Then one of his brilliant yes men says, “I have an idea. We get that bill passed the Republicans shot down.”

Old Joe says, “That won’t work, will it. I mean, it didn’t work before.”

Another yes man jumps in. “We get the media to apply a lot of pressure. They paint them as obstructionist.”

And so it is, they march out the politicians and put them on the talk shows. Then a few weeks later, Old Joe has his visitors again.

Guess what. Suddenly Joe is talking really deporting illegal aliens. I mean, he’s not really going to do it. It will all be done with smoke and mirrors. All the while he deports them, he’ll be sneaking them in at night on big jets.

Well, so we see, the pollsters don’t really run the country, though sometimes it appears that way. That Old Joe, his puppetmasters are just too smart for those that do the polls.
