Things That Caught My Attention Today

Molly

Another beautiful American killed by a demented idiot. We have enough of these vicious animals that are home grown without importing more. This guy would not have been here if we were enforcing our immigration laws that are currently on the books. As a father of two girls I can’t imagine the pain her father must be experiencing right now. We absolutely must stop allowing people from just walking into our country and residing here illegally. We have no idea who they are or what their backgrounds are. The list of Americans being killed by illegal aliens just keeps growing. Wake up people, it’s time to elect politicians that are more interested in the good of Americans instead of non-Americans. Tell your Congressmen and Senators to put America first or you’re going to put them out to pasture.

Michael Shannon, was doing an interview with Playboy recently, and went off on President Trump. ( surprise ) His statements were unbelievably juvenile and ignorant. He is obviously a 16 year old kid trapped in a 44 year old body. He stated that Trump is incapable of deep reflection. He obviously suffers from that malady as well.

Duncan Hunter, ( pretty impressive name ) is a Republican Congressman from Southern California. He is accused of using campaign funds for personal activities. Like, over a quarter of a million dollars. If this is true, he truly needs to resign and take his medicine. I’ll bet if they looked really hard, they could probably indict 50% of Congress, and even more in the State Houses.

Imran Awan, do you remember this guy and his notorious Pakistani family? He was Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s IT guy. Actually he worked for most of the Democrats in the House of Reps. It was pretty obvious to everyone that this guy and his family were up to no good. He was running a spy ring and stealing Congressional computer equipment. When they discovered what was going on, his wife boogalooed back to Pakistan to escape the heat. So the Federal Prosecutors ( obviously heavily influenced by the Democrats ) turned a blind eye to all of that, and instead charged him with one count of bank fraud, and sentenced him to a mere three months of “supervised release”. Not one day in jail. If this guy had been working for the Republicans, the Feds would have appointed a special prosecutor and it would have gone on for years.

MTV VMA’s, what a joke this thing is. Their ratings are lower than the exhaust pipes of a Chevy in East L.A. The performers are too stupid to realize that their political rants make them about as popular as the herpes virus. Nobody I know wants to hear that crap, anymore than they want to hear it at any other awards show. We want to be entertained not lectured by someone that can’t manage their own life for longer than a month at a time. None of these entertainers are exactly towers of intelligence, or morals. Shut up and sing and dance, we don’t care what you think.

Peta,  it seems, has convinced Nabisco to free the animals from the cages on boxes of Barnum’s Animal Crackers, and instead show them running free. Now, this might just be me, but wouldn’t you think the bigger issue here is people eating the images of animals in cracker form? Just sayin’. Maybe instead, they could convince Nabisco to sell the same boxes with a little book inside about the evils of eating animals, and do away with the crackers all together? I’m certain that would be a huge success.

COLLEGE MADNESS FINALLY BEARING FRUIT

antifa-flag-burning

ANTIFA, ENEMY OF THE STATE, IS SUPPORTED BY MAIN STREAM MEDIA WHICH, IN MY OPINION MAKES THEM AN ACCESSORY TO THE FACT.

 

BLM

BLM SEEMS TO BE JOINING FORCES WITH ANTIFA, THEY ARE OFTEN SEEN TOGETHER AS OF LATE. IT HAS A DISTINCT ANTI AMERICAN STENCH.

Hey, when is the general population going to frigging wake up? These are not protests, these are dry runs, warm ups if you will for full blown anarchy in the streets. These people hate America and everything it stands for. The Feds need to identify these groups for what they actually are….Domestic Terrorists. The media dumbasses are calling them anti-hate groups. Are you kidding me? “Pigs in a blanket, fry’em like bacon” that ain’t soundin’ like a Christian church gathering. It sounds like ” I hate yo’ ass and I’m gonna’ burn yo’ shit”. Antifa’s message is pretty clear as well, ” No borders, no wall, no USA at all”. Over the past weekend, when they realized they couldn’t fight with the right wing guys, they turned on the Police and the Press. They took down an NBC reporter, knocking him and his camera to the ground. The dumbass NBC guys didn’t even acknowledge that it happened. Unless you watch Fox News, you never would have known it happened. They threw rocks, bottles, and fireworks at the cops, spit in their faces, and called them every despicable name in the books. The Police exhibited remarkable restraint. CNN, MSNBC, NBC, and CBS all referred to these goons as anti hate groups. The media people are either really stupid, or they support the activities these bozos engage in. It may actually be both.

You can trace the roots of this hyper anti-American activity right back to the colleges and universities. Americas institutions of higher learning are bastions of hate for America. I listen to the views expressed by professors and I am amazed how utterly insane they sound. I recently listened to a female professor speak on toxic masculinity. She spoke for almost 15 minutes, and when she finished speaking she had not presented one single coherent idea. She simply strung a bunch of words and phrases together that meant nothing. I heard another guy today talk about men’s access to tampons. He went on to say that they are not sure how many men are now menstruating, with the numerous genders in existence. Huh? I’m just guessing now, but it might be bleeding hemorrhoids. I saw another story today that a lesbian professor is being sued by a gay guy for sexual harassment. He alleges that she threatened to give him bad grades if he didn’t give in to her demands, or his demands, or it’s demands or whatever pronoun this thing chooses to be. I saw her photo and I would be hard pressed to identify exactly what it is.

The big deal in colleges and universities these days is how many ways they can denigrate white folks. It seems to be a contest on just how many of the world’s problems can be blamed on white folks. What I find really odd about this, is a lot of these folks expressing hate for whites, are white???? If they hate themselves so much, how come the suicide rate isn’t going up? I don’t think they really hate themselves, I think they’re just mentally challenged. ( stupid ) A couple of good examples of what our colleges are producing is Sarah Jeong and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Wow, the lights are on but nobody’s home. These are just two individuals that have put themselves in a conspicuous position. I can only imagine what other creatures are lurking out there that we don’t know about. That’s scary. My friends, the so called institutions of higher learning are institutions of total craziness, full of over paid college professors that preach rather than teach, and what the preach is pure B.S. If you’re donating money to a college, stop wasting your money. You’re better off donating your money to a vocational school where they actually teach people how to support themselves and become productive citizens.

The ultimate example of college stupidity is the idea that there are more than two genders. If you were born with a penis, you’re a guy. If you were born with a vagina, you’re a girl. If you think you’re something else other than one of those, you were born with a f—-d up brain. Well, maybe there’s three genders.

WHY THE PERSISTANT ANIMOSITY?

Boston Massacre Dark DepictionThe inhabitants of this Great Nation of ours have had some serious disagreements over the years. Hank Williams Jr. has a song that talks about family traditions, he says his friends ask him why he acts the way he does and he replies, “put yourself in my position, it’s and old family tradition”. I’m not a historian, don’t pretend to be, but I know enough to make the statement, that there have been some pretty rough spots in our history. The Civil War was a very big rough spot, 620,000 Americans died in that misunderstanding. To put that into perspective, 1,264,00 have died in all of our Nation’s wars.

So, here we are, 153 years since the Civil War, and we still can’t seem to find civility among our citizens. I’ve been thinking about this for awhile now, wondering why the inability to live together peacefully, continues to linger. It’s all about respect for your fellow man, and your country. These are my thoughts on this perpetual problem.

The inhabitants of the United States are made up of people from all over the world. From all different races, creeds, and religions. I use the word inhabitants as opposed to citizens, simply because we have a large contingency of people that are not citizens, living here illegally. That by the way, has always been the case, it’s nothing new. If you take a look back, when people first immigrated here from foreign countries they had a tendency to live in the same areas and form neighborhoods where they felt at home so to speak. This by the way is still the case. So, in effect they were colonizing this country in a small degree. This tends to cause animosity among others who are native born or have been here for several generations. It’s nothing more than a territorial issue. We have all experienced that feeling, and if you say you haven’t you’re either really different or a liar.

Case in point is Westminster, and Garden Grove, California. In the eighties, it was settled by Vietnamese refugees Not just a few but several thousand. Immediately they started transforming Bolsa Ave. into Vietnamese oriented businesses. The residents of Westminster were not at all happy with this transition, that was being pushed by the city governments of Westminster and Garden Grove. These two once thriving cities were facing tax shortfalls due to aging populations and the construction of the Garden Grove Freeway. The city leaders saw this influx of avid entrepreneurs as a shot in the arm in the way of taxes. However, this didn’t  go down well with the long time residents, and they resisted this effort for years. Every time the cities, and county would put up city limit signs depicting the area as Little Saigon, the locals would tear them down or shoot them full of holes with shotguns. At one time a group of residents presented a petition to the city to stop issuing business licenses to Indochinese merchants. Obviously that didn’t happen.

In my opinion, these are the cold hard facts as I see them. The majority of this country is made up of Caucasians. They colonized this country, they built it, and established it’s court systems, laws and law enforcement. They determined the national language to be English, because that’s where most of them came from. They dominated just about everything that happened in this country from day one. It’s unquestionably Caucasian and Christian territory, and still is whether you like it or not. If that’s not acceptable to you, your only choice is to immigrate to another country.

What I just stated are facts, not intended to be raciest. There is plenty of room for people of all races and nationalities to reside in this great country, and should always be welcomed. However, unless you are willing to respect the original founders, and set aside the language and traditions from your country of origin it will always be a problem for traditional Americans to accept. Nothing irks me more than seeing people in my area that have lived here for years and still dressing like they are living in Bangladesh, or Iraq. They are not doing themselves any favors, they are inviting ridicule. I find it especially rude to be dining in a restaurant, and have a group of people sitting at the next table speaking a foreign language, knowing full well they live here. It is totally disrespectful.

If you live in America act like an American. If you’re not OK with that, why are you here in the first place. This is where the Democrats and Liberals completely miss the point. Immigrants should be Americans first, in language and culture, but, in my opinion  should always celebrate where they came from. That’s why people have festivals to enjoy food and drink, and costumes from their former homelands. Come Monday, they should put on their American dress and resume life as traditional Americans.

All people living within the borders of the United States should strive to be part of the American Culture, speak the language, wear traditional clothing. Become lawful citizens, participate in the political system. Most of all respect American traditions, including respect for the flag. Abide by the laws of the land.

The biggest challenge for all of us, is to respect other human beings, their families and their property. Just because someone may be a little different, that doesn’t automatically make them an enemy. Take the time to get to know them, understand them. It simply comes down to this, the more we have in common, the less we have to disagree about.    

The Civil War is a very bad stain on our country’s past. We should put all of our efforts into never letting that happen again. Taking away all the reminders from the Civil War may not be a good thing. I think it’s worth far more to remember than to forget, lest it happen again.

I’ve Finally Had Enough!!!

one pissed off guy

This week, The New York Times newest employee, Sarah Jeong finally pushed me over the edge. Up until now, the attacks on white folks, didn’t bother me too much. They are irritating, but I didn’t let them get under my skin. But, these attacks are different, and indicate to  me that this hate speech that I have been hearing, is a lot more serious than I imagined. I can no longer ignore it, I am getting really pissed. I told my 9% French DNA to go hide in the closet while my 45% British DNA kicks some ass. My Brit DNA is backed up by some good ol’ Viking DNA, so beware.

I understand that Sarah Jeong is Korean. Before sweet Sarah spouts off again, I would like to remind her that 36,914 American soldiers died, to keep South Korea out of the hands of the communists. A few years before that thousands more American soldiers died defeating the Japanese. Remember the Japanese, the guys that kidnapped Korean girls and made them sex slaves for their armies? Most of those that died were young white men that were willing give up their lives for her country of origin. We are still there 65 years later protecting her people from communism. Her words are extremely insulting to those soldiers and their families. Sarah is a self centered, shallow, pathetic human being.

It seems to be fashionable these days to trash white folks, and blame them for everything, including plastic straws, and Walmart. I’m going to give you my perspective of the world as a white guy. Which by the way, I’m very happy with my DNA.

From my point of view, and from what I learned reading history, is that Caucasians have always been on the move, creating and developing nations and societies. While the Europeans were building cities, creating architectural marvels, the native Americans were still chasing Buffalo. So is it any wonder that when the Europeans started looking for new real estate, North America was the perfect target? Now before all of you knuckle draggers start calling me a raciest, I am merely pointing out the difference between builders and nomads. Yeah, yeah, I know about the Aztecs. By the way where are they today?

The Caucasian race has shaped this world pretty much from the beginning with great architects, inventors and scientists. I am extremely proud to be a member of the Caucasian race. They are indomitable warriors and fearless explorers, always willing to cross the next frontier. There are a lot of white folks that are rotten, I fully understand that, I’m not trying to say we are all saints, but don’t blame us for the fact that you don’t take advantage of the opportunities that are offered you in this great nation. I was born into a lower income family, but that didn’t mean I had to stay at that level, I wanted more for my family, so I worked damn hard to rise above that. I worked under some really bad conditions before the good times came. I’m still waiting for that so called “white privilege” to show up. I’m 77 years old and still working. Stop whining, being white doesn’t give you a free pass to success.

The only thing that creates success is education, hard work, and adherence to some basic rules of society; Focus on your responsibilities, stay sober and clean, stay true to your spouse, devote your life to your God and Family, be kind to your fellow man. Put those values in your life and your skin color or where you come from no longer matters.

Lastly, being a white guy, I have spent my life around other white people. I have never witnessed any of my white friends or colleagues, or the companies that I have worked for discriminate against people of color. In the year 2018, White people are not the blame for your problems. Suck it up buttercup, quit using us as an excuse for your inadequacies. If you can’t make it, it’s your problem sunshine. Remember, education doesn’t cure stupidity.

CHEW ON THIS!

Chewing Dog

The question is; Do non citizens actually vote in our elections? If so, isn’t that the same as a foreign nation meddling in our election system? Let’s take a look at the facts regarding election fraud. People have been rigging, or trying to rig elections since the process was developed. When it comes to elections, emotions tend to get a little out of control. Joseph Stalin was supposed to have said ” it’s not the people who vote that count, it’s the people who count the votes”. By the way, no real record of Stalin actually saying that exists, but there is a lot of truth in the statement.

There have been numerous big American cities with a very bad reputation for having rigged elections. Chicago will probably come to mind most frequently. However, while I lived in the Seattle area, I saw numerous elections that were contested due to the discovery of ballot box stuffing. I specifically remember one election where hundreds of ballots had the same street address, and that address just happened to be the Democrat election headquarters in downtown Seattle. It seems the Dems were registering people to vote with no home address, and no identification,  so they just used the address of the election headquarters. Democrats are really good at doing this kind of crap, that’s why they resist the voter I.D. card idea put forth by the Republicans. Several of the so called ” sanctuary cities ” are now openly allowing non citizens to vote in local elections. The reasoning behind this is pretty obvious if you have an I.Q. over 25.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/whitehouse.gov/files/docs/pacei-ken-block-presentation.pdf

Take a moment and read the information presented in the link above and think about it. Then ask yourself, are our election results really that accurate. It’s certainly something to consider when you listen to all of the nonsense being put forth by the Democrats. The Democrats resist any form of voter I.D. stating that is discriminatory against minorities. Virtually everyone in the United States of voting age, has some form of I.D. , it is almost impossible to get the most basic services without it. My little pea brain says that people on some form of welfare are far more likely to have I.D., it’s their ticket to free stuff.

If you want free and honest elections, then demand that provisions be put in place to insure that. Do that by voting for people that don’t talk in “double speak” ( see Hillary ) and have a good reputation for honesty and integrity. ( that does not include Maxine Waters, or others like her )  Do your research and find out who you’re voting for, and what they stand for now and in the past. Most of all, vote to stop the creep of socialism.

The “Lefties” Have Totally Lost It!

Mental_painThis how it must feel to a leftie knowing that they might be looking at eight long years under President Trump. There is ample evidence that this is how they feel every single day. They have literally lost their collective minds. There are far too many examples to cite in one article, but I’m going to cover some pretty epic stupidity.

Ice Protest

Abolish ICE protest in Portland, Oregon. Protestors established an encampment around the ICE headquarters office building and proceeded to harass employees working in the building. A food cart located across the street was observed serving ICE officers and immediately the protestors began harassing the cart owners, even threatening to kill their daughter. The Food Cart owners shut down their business and put the cart up for sale, saying they had enough. The threats against the federal employees escalated to the point they feared for their lives and safety, they called 911 asking for Portland Police protection. The Mayor refused to allow the Portland Police to protect the federal employees saying, ” I’m not going to use the Portland Police to protect and agency that in effect has it’s own police force”. The mayor denied the constitutional rights of the federal employees by refusing to protect them from possible harm or death simply because he disagreed with the premise of the federal agency. Lars Larson rightfully calls Portland, “Havana on the Willamette”.

The city stepped in and ordered the encampment disbanded only after it literally became a bio hazard, with empty food containers, trash, needles, human waste, and filth. The protestors left behind a mountain of trash and debris for the taxpayers to clean up. In the end, they accomplished nothing, other than forcing a food cart owner out of business, and making life miserable for federal employees simply trying to go to work everyday.

SANCTUARY CITIES, TOWNS, AND STATES 

The “lefties” totally own this one, lock, stock and barrel. These policies are as un-American as you can get. These idiots are in effect allowing the invasion of a sovereign nation by illegal immigrants for no good reason. Can you imagine any reason why you would throw open the doors of your home and allow total strangers to come in and make themselves at home, and occupy it as if was their own? It’s pure insanity. To make it worse, these idiots protect them from federal law enforcement even when they are violent criminals, putting American citizens at risk. Why on earth, would public officials create a safe haven for people engaging in illegal activities?? It’s so stupid I can’t wrap my mind around it. Are they so hungry for votes to stay in power, they are willing to risk the lives of innocent people so they can stay in office?? None of it makes any sense at all. Public officials that endorse this type of activity should be stripped of their citizenship.

MOB MENTALITY

The “lefties” are now resorting to roving mobs, ready to reek havoc on a moments notice. Harassing elected officials and their families trying to enjoy dinner at a public restaurant, getting their hair styled, or while shopping at a grocery store or gas station. The infamous Maxine Waters called for these very activities at a rally in Los Angeles a few weeks ago. They are showing up at the homes of anyone they disagree with, harassing them on their own property. This type of activity eventually will lead to violence, and injuries to innocent people. I have not heard one single leader from the Democratic party asking their supporters to ratchet down the uncivilized behavior. The reason you won’t hear them say that is because they condone it. The Democrat city mayors turn a blind eye to the violence and tell the police to stand down. The mayors and city councils are as much of a problem as the demonstrators on the street. The demonstrators are the mayor’s soldiers of anarchy against the President. What’s really stupid about that, is that the mayor’s minions destroy public and private property in his own city. It’s sort of like taking a dump in your own living room. Forest Gump said it best, ” stupid is as stupid does”.

Examination of Policies

Do-I-Really-Save-Money-Bundling-Insurance-Policies

There are a lot of different kinds of policies, not just insurance policies. However, all policies, written or verbal have one thing in common, they let you know exactly what to expect if you subscribe. But most people are not interested enough, or they are too naïve to read the fine print, and are often surprised to find out they didn’t get exactly what  they bargained for.

Setting political parties aside I want to just talk about policies. There are a lot of folks on the left that are pining away for Barrack Obama, and would gladly accept him as their “forever” president. These very same people are accusing Donald Trump of wanting to become the first American Dictator. Someone please tell me how that makes any sense at all. Barrack Obama occupied the Whitehouse for eight years, so we have a very clear picture of what his policies are and what affect they had. We are just beginning to experience where Donald Trump is taking the country. Remember, we the voting public gave them the authority to enact their policies when we elected them. Maybe you didn’t vote for the current president, but the majority did, so you just have to ride it out.

Let’s be fair, Obama inherited an economy that was going down in flames faster than the Hindenburg. Drastic situations require drastic actions to correct them. Some pretty drastic actions were taken in the early years of Obama’s first term to stop free fall of the economy. I have to give him and his team credit for doing that. However, after the first few years of bail outs and subsidies, instead of focusing on how to revive the economy by stimulating growth and creating jobs, he and his team focused on trying to regulate their way out of trouble, being satisfied with lackluster economic growth. To make it worse, they threw everything at creating a government run health care system. Think about this for a moment, a government run health care system is in reality a huge tax. Why would you levy a huge tax on the population, during a severe economic recession when there are literally hordes of folks out of work, on food stamps and unemployment benefits? Barrack Obama believed this, and I am quoting him, “people are kidding themselves if they think manufacturing jobs are coming back to the US. He added, “it’s not going to happen, there is simply no way to make it happen”. ( paraphrased ) The real truth is, that Barrack Obama had no idea how to make it happen, so therefore in his mind is was not in the realm of possibility. The man clearly lacks the gift of a visionary, which all great leaders must have. Barrack Obama’s policies clearly failed, from the economy to his foreign policy. We experienced eight long years of total stagnation.

Enter billionaire business man Donald Trump, who built a fortune on big ideas and the courage to follow through on them. Anyone can have big ideas, but few have what it takes to turn them into reality. There is one huge difference in Donald Trump and Barrack Obama. Donald Trump sees the greatness in America and it’s citizens, and wants to make it even greater. Barrack Obama admittedly said, he didn’t believe America was more exceptional than any other nation. How successful do you think the New England Patriots would have been if Bill Belichick and Tom Brady felt that way. Donald Trump has a vision of a vibrant, strong, rich America, and is taking bold actions to make it happen. Donald Trump has a policy of hard work, and positive thinking, and we are all benefitting from those policies. There is no doubt he loves America and wants the best for it’s people. Obama Care was a giant shell game, remember “You can keep your doctor, you can keep your health plan”? Whatever Donald Trump is doing you know because he puts it on Twitter for everyone to read. The Trump administration is more transparent than any other that I can remember.

So, this is the way I see the policies of the two men. Barrack Obama’s two terms were like dark overcast winter days. Donald Trumps first two years have been like springtime, grass is getting green again, trees and flowers are starting to bud, the future is looking good again. It’s simply a “defeatist” policy vs. a “can do policy”. I don’t know about you but I prefer the latter. I’m pretty sure a defeatist never won the Medal of Honor.

Things That Passed Through My Mind

Thinking-Man

When you travel to a foreign land, most people immediately know where you come from, you don’t even have to tell them most of the time. They know where you came from by the language you speak. Most every nation speaks a language that is peculiar to that nation. Even though we speak the same language as England, I doubt that anyone would confuse a Brit with someone from Alabama. A common language, English, is the societal glue that bonds us all together and identifies us as Americans. No different than the Spanish language is to Mexico, or French is to France. So why do 25% of the people in the USA speak a foreign language in their homes? Forty seven percent of Californians speak a foreign language in their homes. Would it be fair to say that they are not interested in being identified as Americans? Is it fair to say they view their homes as a settlement in a foreign land, an outpost if you will? Any nation that wishes to survive well into the future, grow and prosper, must have a common language and culture. Diversity is another word for division. We are the United States of America, not the Diverse States of America. English must be designated as the National Language sooner than later.

In today’s super partisan political climate, it makes no sense for former high ranking officials to maintain their high level security clearances. When a new administration takes over, the transition teams should be able to collect all of the information from the outgoing team they will ever need within six months max. We do keep very good records after all. We have all seen the antics of former Obama officials doing their best to undermine the current administration, by feeding information to news outlets and leaking damaging information. Why don’t we just apply common sense; when you’re out of office, you’re no longer privy to classified information, period. Stop the nonsense.

Where the hell is Jeff Sessions? I know where Rod Rosenstein is, he’s running the DOJ. I saw Jeff giving a speech at some sort of event a few days ago, first time I have seen or heard him speak in what seems like months. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone more ineffective. You couldn’t say that about Eric Holder. Even though his policies were controversial it was obvious he was working for Obama.

Robert Mueller is spending tons of money and time prosecuting Paul Manafort. Does that seem as ludicrous to anyone else as it does to me? First of all he is just one of hundreds of guys that work as unregistered agents for foreign governments, including the Podesta brothers. Don’t think for a moment that if he is convicted that President Trump won’t pardon him. Be sure to pay your fair share of taxes this year, so the government can waste at least 25% of the money. What a bunch of Bozos.

Is Adam Schiff a human? I get the distinct feeling that he is a cyborg. Have you watched him speak? The more I see and hear him, the more sure I am, that he is a product of Boston Dynamics.

Stay strong, stay true to the American ideals, beware of the socialist insurgents ( lefties ).

What is Happening to Our Society

Puzzeled Man

I have been on this planet for a very long time now, and as I have mentioned before in my blog, I don’t remember such civil discord in my lifetime. The question in my mind as well as a lot of other people’s minds, is how did we get here? Let me start by saying, I am not by any means or degree a social scientist, never even attended a lecture on sociology. However, I have been observing the actions of my fellow Americans for well over seventy years. So, I think I know a little bit about life and people. We are all individuals and we are all different in one way or another. We have our own individual ideas about how things should be, and we obviously don’t always agree with our neighbors.

Prior to the internet and social media, we were very limited as ordinary citizens in our ability to communicate with more than a few friends and neighbors. Our largest social interaction was likely in a religious or educational institution. Unless you were a well known writer, with a publication of some sort, your ideas were pretty much going to stay local. Almost 100% of the publications of this time were filtered through editors that were steeped in civility which was common for the time. Society in general was steeped in civility and if movies or publications got out of line, the general public was quick to call them out for their misdeeds.

It seems like out of nowhere, people were tired of being civil. They were tired of being told how to act and think. I remember when the Los Angeles Free Press started appearing, people were shocked and couldn’t believe what they were reading and seeing. Civility was starting to unravel, and it has continued to unravel for the last sixty years until we find ourselves at this point. It is my belief that social media accelerated the demise of civility, because if gave people the ability to broadcast their hate and bitterness in a manner that only major media networks were able to do a few years prior. Now suddenly, every nut cake, or group of nut cakes, in the world has a media platform from which to broadcast their insanity.

Back in the sixties there was a group of folk singers known as the Kingston Trio. One of their songs addressed the world situation. The words went something like this; ” They’re rioting in Africa, They’re starving in Spain, There’s hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain. The whole world is festering with unhappy souls, The French hate the Germans, the Germans hate the Poles. Italians hate Yugoslavs, South Africans hate the Dutch, and I don’t like anybody very much. I can tell with certainty that the list has gotten much longer since. Americans have divided themselves into groups that literally would love to wipe each other out. The gays hate the straights and vice versa, the blacks have now openly admitted they hate the whites, Lefties hate almost everyone for one reason or another, especially Donald Trump and his supporters. Antifa hates America in general, Lefties hate the cops. Conservatives hate the Lefties. A huge number of college professors hate America and want to turn it into a Socialist Cesspool, and are influencing a large number of young Americans to think in a like manner. Democrats hate gun owners and the NRA, as well as Christians and Chick-fil-A. Muslims hate anyone that ain’t a Muslim. PETA hates all carnivores no matter what race, creed or religion. Green Peace hates everybody that even looks at the ocean or a tree. Bicyclists hate motorists and vice versa. Portland hates cars. Whoopi Goldberg hates Janine Pirro. Hollywood hates conservatives.

Sadly what we have now, is a literally dozens of camps that all hate each other. Has the United States become a real life Humpty Dumpty that has fallen off the wall? I’m not really sure we can put all of these people back together again. It’s a sad day when you can lose your life simply for wearing a jersey from your favorite sport team, or a tee shirt for your favorite political candidate. Satan is alive and well, and is sewing seeds of hate in every corner of this world. Rebuke Satan, and get hate out of your life. I’m not saying it’s going to be easy, but at least we can start being honest about who we are and try to be better human beings.
