There is an old saying that the “night has a thousand eyes” implying that your bad deeds are going to be seen by someone regardless of how careful or clever you think you are. The number of eyes in the night has grown into millions in recent years with the advent of mobile phones. Even the smallest event gets captured on someone’s phone camera. If that event is deemed important enough, could end up on the 10:00 pm news.
This is why I love the internet. There are millions of people watching virtually everything happening in the world, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. And these people are driven by wanting to claim their 15 minutes of fame. So, I guess in reality we live in a world of innumerable snitches. That doesn’t seem to be a bad thing to me, because we live in a world of innumerable people doing illegal things. Let’s face facts, laws seem to be viewed as mere suggestions these days.
Over the past few decades, the legacy media have become the mouthpiece of the leftists. Just about everything they say is either very biased or outright lies. A huge number of Americans have now realized this and are turning to alternative news sources on the internet. I am one of those people. I am constantly perusing the internet looking for stories that aren’t being covered by the mainstream media. I discovered a reporter that goes by the name of George A.A. He seems to have access to some very interesting news content. I have embedded one of his articles for your viewing. Click on the link below.
I became aware of “Act Blue” within the past six or eight months. You don’t have to be super smart to realize very quickly what this is all about. I urge you to research it and let your congressman know you are concerned about Act Blue’s activities. Of course, in my case, I live in a blue state, my congressman is part of the problem.
Happy New Year everyone! I think we are in for one hell of ride considering we just captured the President of Venezuela a few hours ago, and Iran is on the edge of collapse, the government likely to fall within the next 72 hours. Russia just lost its supplier of kamikaze drones and other ammunitions. Trump is on the move.
First of all, that picture isn’t me or any of my family members, just a photo I grabbed off the internet. Why not an authentic photo? Because I’m too dang lazy to climb up in the loft and go through old photo albums. I seem to get lazier the older I get. Last night after dinner, my dog and I retired to the big recliner, and I promptly went to sleep and woke up about 10:00 pm. There just ain’t nothin’ like a big ol’ recliner and a warm doggie. Now this wasn’t the smartest move, because by the time I actually went to bed I was wide awake. Aren’t you supposed to get smarter the older you get? Well, I don’t think it’s working on me.
I can’t quite wrap my head around the fact that it’s Christmas again already. It seems like it was only last week we were camping on the coast enjoying the wonderful pacific northwest summer. This year has been a blur; it’s like our lives are on “fast forward”. We don’t have any family anywhere close, they all bailed out for the southwest and sunshine. Left the old timers up here in the mucky wet, cold weather. That said it’s a little hard to really catch the Christmas spirit with no youngins around. So, the last few days, I have been doing a little reminiscing about Christmases we had when I was a youngin.
Men go through four phases of life. 1. You believe in Santa Clause 2. You no longer believe in Santa Clause 3. You become Santa Clause 4. You look like Santa Clause. I don’t remember when I figured out my dad was really Santa, but we still carried on the tradition of opening gifts on Christmas morning as long as I lived in my parent’s home. I carried on the tradition with my own family until my kids got married. It’s a wonderful tradition, so many wonderful memories from those days.
This is where I have to honor my parents. My father was an orphan, parents died when he was about 10 years old. Ran away from the orphans home at 16. Pretty loosely connected family from the hills of southeastern Oklahoma. Real deal red necks. He never looked back, was on his own from 16 years old on. Met my mom when he was nineteen, married her at twenty. She was eighteen.
My mom’s family was fairly large, four sisters, two brothers. They lived in a two-room shanty with no running water. Pure poverty. Father was an alcoholic, died from alcoholism in 1942. Whatever money the family had, he drank it. My grandmother lived in that house until her death sometime in the late 60’s. She had bed, a radio, an above floor heater, a kitchen stove, refrigerator and a table. I remember a small table by her easy chair. She probably had four dresses and a couple of pair of shoes when she died. In spite of having virtually nothing, she had a wonderful attitude, and a sweet personality until the day she died. The woman never owned a bathtub or an automobile.
In spite of their childhoods, my parents were about as good as they come. My dad was rock steady in every way. My mom was a loving, caring, hardworking housewife that looked after her kids like they were pure gold. I can remember her staying by my side when I was sick with the normal childhood diseases like mumps, measles, chicken pox, and all of my other childhood ailments. Likewise with my older sisters. Love and laughter was present in our home around the clock.
As you can see, my parents took their jobs very seriously. They made sure every holiday was a fun family event. But they went the extra mile to make sure Christmas was special. My mom and sisters would make candy and cookies for several days before Christmas, my mom and dad would buy an assortment of nuts and fruits to munch on during holidays. My dad was a good marksman, and always brought home a large turkey from the “turkey shoot”. (look it up)
This may sound like we were a wealthy family. Nope! My dad was a welder in a boiler shop, my mom was a homemaker. My mom was a very frugal homemaker. She saved what little money she had throughout the year, so her family could have a nice Christmas. Not an elaborate Christmas, but ample. The gifts although simple and not expensive were cherished treasures. Christmas was pure magic in our home. The weeks leading up to Christmas were exciting and filled with anticipation. And we always visited my granny in her little, tiny house with her little, tiny Christmas tree.
As old people, our Christmases may be a lot quieter, and a little different, but we have wonderful memories of times past, and lot of close friends with similar lives. We are going to have Christmas dinner with some our dear friends and my grandson from Seattle, so it’s going to be another memorable Christmas for the books. Lot’s of love and laughter, and good food.
I sincerely hope all of you have a joyous Christmas holiday, and a wonderful New Year. God bless you all.
THE SELFISH BASTARDS FORGOT JUST LIKE THEY FORGOT EVERY OTHER STUPID ACT BY PEOPLE THAT HATE AMERICA. AMERICANS ARE ALWAYS CHASING THE NEXT SHINY OBJECT. YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE PAST, FORGET DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT IN THE FUTURE.
KITCHEN TABLE POLITICS
We talk about politics and world events a lot around our house. At our age not much else to talk about. We don’t water ski, snowboard, or scuba dive. Hell, we do good just to get up and down the damn stairs. We gave up on church when they refused to do bingo nights. So, we have three TV’s and four computers that we use to keep up on the latest news. If we knew how, we could even track Taylor Swift’s private jet travel. So, we have two people and one dog in our house, and we all bark a lot, and the effect seems to be about the same across the board. Nobody pays much attention to any of us.
The last two evenings at the dinner table, after eating way too much because all of our calluses are on our behinds not our hands, we delved into what we think DJT is doing wrong. So, at this point, it’s my obligation to report the minutes of those meetings.
But before I get into this unholy critique I have to say we love DJT, and overall we’re good with most everything except we ain’t gettin’ no richer. We ain’t seeing no significant drop in what we pay for gas, electricity and water. Gasoline is coming down very slowly in our neck of the woods, but we do live in a purple state. Groceries, another whole story. I did do a little happy dance when a one pound can of coffee dropped from over 16 dollars to just over 13 dollars. We make two pots a day so that’s good news.
OK, you’re probably saying “it’s only been 10 months since he took office”. Fine, but we’ve been getting raped for almost five years now, our asses are getting a little sore. Time for a break man.
Oh yeah, and that supply line thing that everyone yapped about during “slow Joe’s ” time in office, well it ain’t gettin’ a lot better. There is still stuff missing on the shelves in the markets. We’re total carnivores in our house, gettin’ tired of chicken, we need more red meat. Getting maybe a little better, but not a lot. Car parts in O’Reilly’s still a bit iffy if you have an older vehicle. Good luck in getting a starter for a 1980 Plymouth. Big box hardware stores same thing. It ain’t fixed yet folks, Americans are used to having what we want when we want it, and our patience is running a little thin. I’m not even going to get into ammunition for my assault rifle they are trying to ban.
We’re really excited to see drug cartel boats being blown up, we try to record those events so we can watch ’em again. We’re glad DJT is working hard for peace across the globe. All good stuff. But don’t forget all of us folks that supported you twice, we be gettin’ hurt in the wallet while the wall street boys are making bank biggly. That stuff ain’t translating to a damn thing in our shriveling bank account. We need more help out here on the left coast Donald.
To all of you Republican strategists, we’re a year away from the mid-terms, this shit best be fixed soon or you gonna lose biggly. Just sayin’. Oh, our house will still support you, but we’re hearing a lot of unhappy remarks and that ain’t good. Happy remarks, we wanna hear Happy. We wanna feel Happy. We don’t wanna lose the truck and camper.
Privilege, prerogative refer to a special advantage or right possessed by an individual or group. A privilege is a right or advantage gained by birth, social position, effort, or concession. It can have either legal or personal sanction: the privilege of paying half fare; the privilege of calling whenever one wishes.
I am qualified to write about this with absolute authority having lived for almost 85 years in the USA as a white Christian male. As a white teenager, my two friends and I were arrested and jailed overnight for driving through a small Oklahoma town at 2:00 am because we were in a bright colored car. The police said they had a report of a car matching the description that was involved in some type of disturbance. We were just coming home from hanging out at the lake swimming. We were released the next morning without charges. They just wanted us off the street. So much for white privilege.
A few years later, while driving my own car, my friend and I were going home after hanging out at a drive-in restaurant in downtown Tulsa. We lived on the west side of the river, and we were taking a shortcut through a very affluent neighborhood. The police pulled us over and said we matched the description of a couple of guys involved in a burglary. It was a bald-faced lie, they knew we were from the wrong side of town and wanted to harass us by threatening us with arrest and towing my car. I talked my way out of it, but the officers parting words were go back on your side of town and don’t come back. So much for white privilege.
Can’t remember catching a break because I was a white boy, I had to work all through high school to afford an old beater car. Working as a burger flipper in those days would get you about .65 an hour. Great money, it bought gas and a Saturday night at the drive-in movies. I bought used tires for my car, and found cleaver ways to steal beer. Yeah, so much for that white privilege thing.
I can tell you; we had real fear of law enforcement. They watched us close, if we messed up bad enough we were arrested, or at least received a traffic ticket and had to appear in court. Nobody cut us a break because we were white kids. What a joke. It was serious shit to steal; threshold amount for felony theft (grand larceny) was $20.00. Anything below that was classified as petty theft. We pretty much walked the line. My mother was tough as a boot, she told me if I found myself in Jail, I could figure out how to get out, because she didn’t have any criminals in her family, and wasn’t going to have any criminals in her family. I got the message.
WHITE PRIVILEGE IN SCHOOL??
You have to be joking!
WHITE PRIVILEGE IN THE WORKPLACE?
I officially entered the workforce for real in 1959. I would say that white privilege in the workplace was a real thing. However, when I think about it, it was a little more complicated than just privilege. Public schools had just been de-segregated, and blacks were not yet being integrated into the workforce. There were blacks working in the shop where I worked in janitorial positions. I worked in a Boilermakers Union shop, and the Tulsa local Boilermaker’s Union was 100% white in those days, as were most unions. All white folks in labor unions shouldn’t be a surprise; they were Democrat controlled.
A few years later when I moved to California, I switched to the Ironworkers Union, don’t remember any black union Ironworkers during those years. So, due to my chosen line of work, I can’t say I witnessed any white privilege. I do remember working with a black Ironworker in the seventies, we were both foremen. He worked in the shop next to mine, and we became good friends. Solid guy, hard worker. If you were a member of the Union and knew your craft, you were treated just like everyone else, regardless. Not a fan of Unions, but that is a definite advantage.
I have to insert a funny story at this point. Later in the nineties, I owned a steel shop in Washington state. My passion outside of work was British sportscars. I owned a Triumph TR7. I wore a jacket at work with a Union Jack on the left breast. One day a black weldor applied for a job and I hired him. After I hired him, he expressed his surprise that someone with a Confederate flag on their jacket would give him a job. He had no idea what a British flag looked like.
As a business owner and shop manager of several other steel shops, I didn’t care what color applicants were, I gave them a test related to their skills, if they passed I hired ’em. If they turned out to be duds, I fired ’em. No drama.
BLACK PRIVILEGE, IT’S REAL BABY
One of the largest driving forces behind the destructive culture of black Americans are white Americans with “white guilt”. What is it?
An indicator of limited reasoning capabilities.
The basic concept is guilt felt by white people for the historic mistreatment of non-white people from white people.
Other people did it. Feeling guilty for other people’s actions does not make sense.
Other people were bad. There is no race of people that is pure. It is not just people that were white who did bad. If white guilt is a thing, then so should black guilt, oriental guilt, and so on.
There were good white people. If white guilt is legitimate, then so should white pride. Why is one racist and the other acceptable?
White people also mistreated each-other. France, Germany, England, all were at war with each other. England and Ireland had conflicts. Heck, Irish people and other Irish people, not too long ago. Are they victims or oppressors?
White guilt is something no one should go through. Sayed Hajaj answering the question “what is white guilt”.
So, you get it, it’s moronic whites repenting for racial sins they did not commit. No matter what race you are, you are not responsible for every bad thing your particular race did in the past. You are an individual person, only responsible for your own wrong doings. By the way, whites didn’t invent slavery although some participated in it.
So, why would a reasonably intelligent person feel this way? Because they were brainwashed by the American educational system. These are the same people that decry colonialism and constantly apologize to Native Americans for the Europeans stealing their land, which, by the way their ancestors stole hundreds of years before.
So instead of emphasizing education, nuclear families, and religion, the geniuses in our “fix everything mindset government” created endless “equal opportunity laws”, and “affirmative action”. Which by the way almost completely destroyed education, nuclear families, and religion in black families. However, it did the one thing the Democrats knew it would, it created a permanent voting bloc, and put the blacks back on the Democrat plantation.
The Democrats under Biden were well aware of how well that plan worked, so they wrapped up the same old crap and put a brand-new label on it called DEI. Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Luckily, most people saw it for what it was, same bullshit, different packaging. Knowing it was going to be a bit of a hard sell, they invented two new phrases to flank it, “disinformation” and “misinformation”, and twisted the arms of the social media giants to go along with it.
The bottom line here folks is that the government has created a special class of people that are moved to the head of the line when they least deserve it, given lenient sentences for all sorts of crimes, including murder. Coddled, and patted on their asses so they don’t make a fuss, even while they are looting a high-end department store. Everyone turns their heads while they are shop lifting drug stores out of business. I’m going to wrap this us by showing you a Matt Walsh video that brings it all together.
Stay alert people, don’t fall for the same old B.S. in glossy new packaging. Remember, politicians never change and can never, ever be trusted.
CHARLIE KIRK’S ASSASSINATION HAS REVEALED A VERY UGLY FACTION OF YOUNG BLOOD THIRSTY PEOPLE.
Throughout my life, I have seen and been in the presence of a few young men and women that would make you a little nervous being in the same room with them. Watching them and hearing what they said would make you wonder what they were capable of. History is filled with examples of lawless young men and women. Fortunately, they made up a very small percentage of the general population. Since Charlie Kirk’s murder, a lot of dialog has taken place, and a lot of self examination has taken place of what we call our civilized society. It is becoming apparent, our society ain’t quite as civilized as we thought.
What is really disturbing is how many prominent people have made some really nasty comments, condoning the shooting, and the list is getting longer daily. Although it is somewhat comforting to see them fired, dismissed and cancelled, that doesn’t mean they have repented and come to their senses. Quite the opposite. A growing number of left leaning folks think it’s just fine to murder someone you don’t agree with. Forget debate, bring out the firearm and start blasting away. As a matter of fact, a poll that was just published, says that 25% of young liberals believe murder is the answer, don’t waste time with arguments, kill the bastards. Doesn’t that sound a bit like Fascism for real?
Some may disagree with this statement, but maybe, just maybe, murdering hundred of thousands of babies in the womb has played a part in normalizing murder. I’m pretty sure it was a contributing factor, if even a minor one. How about all of the Hollywood flicks when one side is getting revenge on the other, by mass slaughter. Yeah, I know the argument, it was the good guys killing the bad guys. Well, think about it; these youngsters have been brainwashed to the point that the “good guy vs. bad guy” thing is pretty convoluted in their little pea brains. They aren’t well versed on right and wrong.
Their educators (the people that parents trusted) filled their brains with all sorts of crazy shit about 200 genders, men could become women, women could be men, it was just fine to have sex with adults, cutting off their genitals was a glorious idea, and anyone that opposed this wonderful new way of life was a fascist nazi. What the hell they even had their own flag proudly displayed in the classroom, approved by the school, put there by their queer teacher. Of course, all of this was being done while the parents were at work trying pay for a home and food. These despicable people were mentally kidnapping your child. Your children came home every day, they didn’t look any different (at first), but their brains and their souls were being poisoned by the alphabet people and their sycophants.
There are hundreds of lessons to be learned here, but the window for the learning stuff has long since closed. People should have been paying more attention to what the leftist teachers were actually doing in the classrooms. The parents should have been approving the curriculum, not the board of education and the teacher’s unions. Teachers should have been vetted better, their backgrounds should have been investigated. I’m sorry, in my humble opinion, gays, lesbians and any other sexual deviants should not be in charge of underage people. Anyone that approves of drag queens performing in public schools should be fined, and forever banned from the educational system. We are attempting to create solid American citizens with good educations, not creating circus freaks.
HOW CAN YOU NOT ASSOCIATE THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WITH A SATANIC CULT?
That may sound a little harsh, or incendiary, but below is a list of what Democrats stand for and promote. I’m not making this stuff up.
Killing normal healthy babies in the womb
Condoning violence in opposition to the other party, burning down cities and towns.
Condoning street thugs like BLM and Antifa.
Promoting burning of Tesla cars to protest an opposing party.
Protecting illegal alien criminals by disrupting a federal law enforcement agency.
Failing to reign in the gang terror in American cities.
Allowing dangerous criminals to roam the streets through lenient legal systems.
Flooding our cities and states with unvetted illegal aliens overburdening our local governments.
Putting Covid infected homeless people in nursing homes killing old folks.
Forcing citizens to take untested experimental drugs, by threatening their livelyhood.
Allowing the homeless problem to go on and on, while stealing the money.
Allowing our beautiful cities to become third world shit holes.
Actually facilitating Islam to gain a foothold in our Predominately Christian nation while knowing from experience it will never work.
Allowing the public schools to make freaks out of our children.
Allowing ultra anti-American professors to teach in our colleges and universities.
I think the only way the Democrats hold on to power is by graft, and corruption of the voting system. Why would anyone in their right mind vote for these people. It’s obvious they hate the USA and what it stands for, otherwise why are they constantly trying to destroy it?
I could write on this subject until I fell over from exhaustion. People, we have to resist this evil nonsense. I can’t tell you how to do that, you will have to come up with your own tailormade plan. God Bless all of you and America. Maybe a good start would be to protest professional sports and tell them we only have one anthem. That would be a start.
THIS COUNTRY IS AWASH IN STUPIDITY, HATE, AND APATHY. A RECIPE FOR DOOM.
There is an enormous amount of people in this country that simply stumble through their days, in their quest for survival, thinking they don’t have to think about anything but themselves. In their minds this nation is just going to run down the tracks on auto pilot, with someone else watching the store, and it will all be OK as long as the TV and computer keep working. I mean, c’mon man, what could go wrong. Well, a lot of shit is going wrong, and it’s been going wrong for a while now, while you were spending half your life on Face Book, and following Game of Thrones. What you need to realize is that no matter what side of the aisle you’re on, or what religion you are, there is a growing number of people that hate your ass because you feel that way. OK, you don’t do that political shit, you’re just an avid football or baseball fan. Well make sure you don’t wander into the opposing teams seating section with your $150.00 hoody and your $50.00 hat ’cause they’ll beat yo’ ass. Understand, there’s a lot of hate goin’ round and you just might get some of it if you ain’t careful. You say OK, I’ll just wear jeans and a plain white Tee. That ain’t gonna work bro, if your skin be the wrong color and you’re in the wrong part of town. Or just on the edge of the wrong part of town. Everyone has heard the phrase “united we stand, divided we fall” well ain’t nuff people carin’ bout that united crap no more. Please note: I’m writing this so Jasmine Crockett can understand it.
You know why bloggers like me can write forever? Because the Democrat party just keeps doing dumbass crap, along with their millions of minions. One of their most successful programs to date, and there have been a bazillion of ’em, is how they have divided this nation into tribes. They have used a lot of tools to accomplish this, but one of the sharpest tools in their tool box, is the world of academics. K – 12 and colleges and universities. If they can keep your kids in the classrooms for sixteen years, chances are they will own them, lock, stock and barrel. Its a well-known fact that at a certain age, most kids want to break away from mom and dad, and find their own way. This is when the educational system takes over and most of these kids come back home as strangers. Assuming of course the parents are conservative patriotic Americans, and not radical leftists.
Personally, I would opt to send my kids to a Christain university, or a trade school. I would do everything possible to not expose them to the radical socialist professors and teachers. I would also do so to keep from inadvertently funding the Teachers Union. In my opinion one of the most anti-American groups anywhere.
I’m not sure what the percentages are, but it’s a widely known fact that colleges and universities are accepting HS grads from the bottom 25% of their class and then getting pressure from the administrators to retain them as long as possible, especially if they are talented athletes. You understand what is happening? It’s not about education, it’s about money folks. A college degree used to be a big deal, but with affirmative action, DEI, and just plain old greed it’s basically just a receipt for the lifelong loan you agreed to.
So, back to that apathy thingy. While all of this fuckery is going on you bought yourself a new I Phone that you are going to pay for over the next two years, so you can pair it to the Apple Car Play in your new Kia. You bought a new 65″ big screen TV with your tax return, and now you can watch all the pro games, Netflix, and 90 day Fiancé. As far as you’re concerned, life is good, and ain’t gettin’ no betta. Hell you even bought a cool gaming chair to go wid da new TV.
All these folks gettin’ robbed, raped, and murdered, illegal immigrants flooding into your beloved nation, hey as long as it ain’t happening in my neighborhood, we’re golden.
Thats what I’m talking about folks, probably a solid 40% of Americans don’t give a damn what goes on four city blocks from their place of residence. Have you ever watched any of the street interviews? Ninety percent of the people they interview can’t even name the vice president, but they sure as hell know who Cardi B is and they know the words to all of her songs.
Considering the overall level of ignorance and hate, its no surprise that violence and murder are occurring at a phenomenal rate. No country can survive with a growing number of single parent homes, hordes of idiots and birth rates so low the population is shrinking. Unless we turn this trend around soon, the decay will become irreversible. Our once beautiful cities look like third world cities, including the inhabitants.
My intent was not to depress you, my intention was to awaken you. I’m old, I do what I can to bring this to everyone’s attention. I want to see young Americans inherit a strong, God fearing, free nation, that our forefathers created for us. God Bless you all. Pay attention, your lives depend on it.
The rot I am referring to is the prosecutors, judges, and attorney generals that condone criminal activity. As you may have noticed, I didn’t say “liberal” or “leftists” because I’m really not sure what kind of moniker to hang on these monsters. How the hell do you get your mind in such a state that you think it’s OK to release dangerous individuals back on the street with 10 or 20 arrests for violent crimes? In my mind, I see these so-called law enforcement officers as menaces to society, as much as the criminals they are protecting.
Human beings are endowed with three basic instincts, one of which is self-preservation. Allowing violent criminals to roam free among the general population, flies in the face of self-preservation. If you are one of these geniuses that subscribes to such an idiotic idea, how do you know you won’t fall victim to one of the animals you released on the public? That is the essence of stupid.
From the beginning of history, societies reasoned correctly that criminals needed to be locked away from the general populations. Granted, locking people away in prisons has been abused greatly by tyrants and unscrupulous government officials. The United States has a pretty good justice system, not perfect, but pretty reliable. You saw it put to the test several times in the past few years when unscrupulous officials tried to stop Donald Trump from being elected. That said, it’s probably the best the world has to offer. Back to the point, locking criminals up for an appropriate time for the crime, is a definite deterrent, it’s been proven again and again. In my opinion, I’m sure you agree, violent criminals need to be put away for one hell of a long time. If you take someone’s life, you need to pay for it with yours.
BLACKS ARE OUT OF CONTROL
This isn’t some boneheaded racist statement made by an old white guy. The FBI produces statistical reports on crime every year. Read one and see what is really going on. I have to warn you that the reports have been, let’s say, softened over the past few years so that they don’t look so scary. I know, I have been reading these and reporting on them since 2015 and the old reports were much more graphic and descriptive. I think I found some stats that are a more honest representation of reality. Click on link below for the real story.
As I said above, I have been perusing these stats for several years, and I can tell you the FBI, and DOJ, and Google, and most other major internet platforms such as Yahoo, and MSN have deliberately become deceptive, bending and twisting facts to downplay the amount of crime committed by blacks. If you’re used to reading the FBI stats from 10 years ago, and you review them now, it’s very apparent what is going on. GASLIGHTING.
When you pair the propensity of violence by blacks, and the kid glove treatment for black criminals certain segments of this nation become very dangerous. Young black criminals have no regard for people of advanced age, or the handicapped or the very young. If you happen to get in their way, good luck. This is precisely why anyone that isn’t black should not be found anywhere near a Carnival Cruise, or a Disney Cruise. Even traveling by air is becoming a challenge.
I happen to be a person of advanced age, and in pretty good health. I’m in no hurry to leave this planet. That said, I’m certainly not able to defend myself by physical means, so I choose where I go carefully, and if it’s questionable I pack some heat. I don’t plan on going out this life beaten to death. So, If you think you’re going to pull me from my vehicle, I hope you’ve made peace with Jesus, because I’m going do everything in my power to help you meet him very shortly.
Back in the nineties, the Democrats and Republicans agreed that crime had to be reined in and all across this nation the so called “three strikes and you’re out” laws were enacted. If you were convicted of three felonies, they put you away for a long, long time. But alas, over the next twenty years the liberals kept chipping away at the law until it’s all but nullified. You are seeing the results of how the left views crime and leniency toward career criminals. When you compare crime stats of twenty years ago, we are decidedly going backwards when it comes to law and order.
ISLAMAPHOBIC? YEP, THAT’S ME.
Got no problems with Buddhism, Hindus, Judaism. Got a really big problem with Islam. Islam and the “West” are simply incompatible. Islam will never accept western culture and Christianity. They will strive to overtake the west by force, if necessary, as long as two Muslims are remaining alive on this earth. Islam is currently making a very obvious push to overtake large parts of Minnesota and Texas. Yep, you heard me right, Texas of all places. I am going to be writing more about this in my next blog, so stay tuned folks. I have a great article planned for you.
POLITICALLY INCORRECT CENTER-RIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON CURRENT NEWS EVENTS.
CINCINNATTI BEAT DOWN
When I first saw the news reports on this I was infuriated by the actions of the black goons mimicking the actions of a gang of chimpanzees. If you know anything about chimps this is exactly how they deal with their enemies. Maybe the transition (evolution if you will) is not yet complete. Just an observation, don’t want anyone to get their panties in a wad.
I don’t know if you have heard this being said regarding black behavior, but they are calling it black fatigue. People are getting really tired of blacks and their stupid shit. If you have watched the Hodge Twins on YouTube, they speak about it often. Blacks are getting out of control. I wouldn’t book a cruise on Carnival or Disney if I were you. If there are more than three or four on an airliner, get ready for an incident. Personally, I don’t want to go to any event where a large contingency of blacks could show up. If you do be sure to wear a bullet proof vest.
If you’re keeping score like I am, all of this shit started during Obama’s two terms as president. He created more race hatred than Governor Wallace of Alabama. Him and his dumbass wife are still at it.
OK, back to the subject of Cincinnatti. I knew there was more to the story that what was being reported. In cases like this, just wait awhile, the real truth will emerge. Check out the video below.
As a 100% white boy, of European ancestry, raised in south central USA, I tried really hard not to engage in racist behavior, and look for the good in everyone. I’m sorry, but I can’t do that anymore. With the increasingly bad behavior of blacks, and the horrible behavior of the illegal immigrants that have flooded into this country under Biden, I find myself becoming more and more critical of brown and black people.
Yeah, yeah, I know, they aren’t all bad. I never said they were, but there are an overwhelming number of them that are total assholes. I know few white assholes too, but I’m sorry, the ratio ain’t the same. Don’t believe me, look at the FBI crime stats. I’m also pretty sure if you’re white you have noticed the growing animosity toward white folks, mostly driven by leftist rhetoric. Folks it’s not safe to be white anymore as you witnessed in the video above. You need to take this seriously if you’re white, the blacks and Hispanics see you as an easy target especially if you’re an older person. They literally hate you for being white, they see you as the reason they are losers.
If you think this is a racist article, you would be right. It’s being forced on me. I fear for the safety of myself and my family. If you don’t believe me, wake the hell up and look around. Stop drinking the Kool Aid being fed to you by MSM. White Americans have been under assault since Obama showed up on the scene. And that jerk is half white.
Stay alert and stay alive. I have been putting off getting my concealed carry permit, I really need to get that done soon. You should as well if you aren’t already carrying. God bless all of you, start paying attention, it could save your life.
POLITICALLY INCORRECT, CENTER-RIGHT VIEWPOINTS FROM AN UNAPOLOGETIC PATRIOT
CORPORATIONS CHASING DOLLARS IS NOT GOOD FOR EVERYONE. CHOICES ARE DIMINISHED.
I am writing this from a much different point of reference than my usual material. As my readers know, I have been fixated on national politics for a very long time. But my real passion is anything with wheels and an internal combustion engine. Aircraft have wheels so they also fall into my category of intense interest. I recently sold my 1943 Dodge Weapons Carrier. This vehicle had the original drivetrain, and it all worked like a Swiss watch after 82 years. (I guess nowadays you could also use Japanese watch)
The basis of this article is that a truck or car manufactured in 2025 is probably unlikely to be operable 82 years from now. There are a lot of reasons for that, but basically, they are far too complex, with operating systems never intended to last 82 years. My Dodge had simple, analog ignition system, that would still work after the unlikely event of an E bomb attack. No digital components, all analog and purely mechanical. You could repair it with simple tools, in some remote location.
I also own a 2007 Chevy Suburban, and there is a reason for owning an 18year old truck. New Suburbans have a litany of issues, a number of them which render the vehicle inoperable. In an effort to make them more fuel efficient, Chevrolet installed direct fuel injection which requires very high fuel pressure. The fuel pump is very prone to failure. When it fails, the truck will not roll and has to be dragged onto the tow truck with special slide plates. But that’s not the end of the story. The fuel pump is buried below the intake manifold and is expensive to replace as you might imagine. Some of these failures are happening very early into ownership of a brand-new truck. Beware, this is happening to a lot of new GM products with V8 engines.
Another issue with late model GM trucks is the cylinder deactivation system which automatically turns off four of the cylinders under light load to conserve fuel. My 2007 has this feature. Sounds like a great idea, and when working properly is seamless, you aren’t aware you’re only running on four cylinders at 70 mph on the level freeway. Here’s the problem, it can cause valve lifter failure. GM has faced numerous class action lawsuits over this problem. Replacing valve lifters is expensive unless you’re a skilled mechanic with a large assortment of tools. I have the oil changed in my truck every 3,000 miles, keep the filters clean, and don’t abuse the engine. My truck has 153,000 miles on the clock and “knock on wood” have not experienced a problem. However, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t slightly apprehensive.
Ford trucks and cars are experiencing problems of different types, but just as frustrating. The new F150 Hybrids are a nightmare of mechanical and electrical problems. They are on the list of 15 vehicles that will suffer significant mechanical failures within the first 40,000 miles. If you have a high end F150 and submerge the taillights while launching your boat, it could cost you $3,000.00 for new lights. They just happen to be part of computer system. Try dropping your laptop in the water and see how well if works afterwards. This begs the question; why would Ford put such an integral component to the vehicle’s operation in a totally vulnerable location?
Virtually every Jeep product currently manufactured by Chrysler/Stellantis, is on the list of 15 Vehicles to avoid. This includes engine and transmission failures to suspension problems in the Jeep Rubicons. Despite the spin from the company managers, the quality of the Chrysler cars is terrible, and isn’t getting better fast. When you watch the video, they are betting big on EV’s which is suicidal. In my opinion, expecting European executives to understand the American market is a huge mistake.
The geniuses in the auto industry keep chasing the so-called perfect vehicle that will satisfy every whim, and in my opinion, most car buyers want a car that gets reasonable fuel milage, is comfortable to drive while offering reasonable safety features. It also has to be reliable; few people can afford big repair bills while simultaneously making astronomical payments plus insurance. Make no mistake, insurance premiums are based on how costly it is to repair a complex machine. As for me personally, I prefer knobs and buttons over touch screens in the middle of the dash. Knobs and buttons are tactile; you don’t have to take your eyes off the road to adjust the heater or air conditioner. GPS is great but give me old school controls.
Most of all, give Americans a choice of a good basic automobile, at a good price, that is not going to require a full-time mechanic to keep all of the do dabs and what nots operating. I don’t know a single person that is salivating over self-driving cars. I know several people that should actually own one, their driving is atrocious. But that’s another topic for another article. Likewise, most people I know don’t think electric cars are a good idea unless you’re on the golf course or living in Seizure World.
Bottom line here. I watch a lot of car shows where guys search out old cars located in crazy locations, drag them out in the sunlight, and a few hours later they are running and driving after sitting for 35 years. That my friends is a testament to the quality and engineering that was present in the auto industry many years ago. They made cars that the common man could drive and maintain for years with simple tools and basic knowledge. I’m afraid those days will never come back. We are saddled with complex digitally controlled machines that sometime even the factory trained techs can’t repair.
Look for Steel Pencil to start writing more diverse content and less political stuff. It’s hard to compete with Donald Trump dominating the daily news scene. He doesn’t leave much room for political opinion guys like me. With Mr. Trump at the helm, it’s non stop action and I love it. I have complete confidence in his decisions and actions. That makes it possible for me to pay more attention to Vice Grip Garage.
Give yourself a gift of happiness behind the wheel, drive and old car. Better yet, buy one and travel back in time to a better place. The old cars are not fast, don’t stop well, but life moved at a much slower pace back then. They are the time machines for real. Happy trails.
I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the past. I have a very active life in the present. I have a friend that literally lives in the past. When you sit and talk with him, he has dozens of pictures on his phone from his days as a young man working as a construction carpenter. I avoid getting into conversations with him, so I don’t have to see his pictures for the 50th time. He’s a nice enough guy but damn he’s boring. All old guys like to reminisce about how things used to be, but you have to find new people to tell your stories to. You’ve obviously heard the saying;“The older I get, the better I was”.
That said, sometimes something triggers my mind that takes me back. That happened this morning when I was reading a news article about Tina Louise. She was the glamour girl on the TV sitcom “Gilligan’s Island”. Wow, her life as a child was a sad story. By the way, not to make you feel really old, but she just celebrated her 91st birthday.
It caused me to reflect on my own childhood, which by the way was unquestionably the best years of my life. That’s how it should be. Your childhood should be the best years of your life. Your body is brand new, everything works great, you can run as fast as you can for as far as you can, rest ten minutes and do it again. The best part is there is no residual pain for the next three days. You lay your tired little body down in bed, go to sleep immediately, and don’t wake up until sunrise. You didn’t have to get up and pee three times.
Every single day of my life while living in my parents’ home (with the rare exception of my mom being ill) I woke up to the smell of breakfast cooking and coffee brewing. How great is that. I got dressed went to the kitchen and mom had four or five menu items I could choose from. During the school year she would help me get ready, give me a hug and kiss, and send me on my way. She just made it impossible for me to have a bad attitude, while filling me with gratitude. I loved and adored my mom.
I rarely saw my dad in the mornings, he had already left for work. My special time with my dad came later in the day. I would walk up to the intersection about a block north of our house and wait for him. He would pull over and stop, I would climb onto the running board of the car, he would put his arm around me to keep me from falling off. When we got to the house, he would open his lunch box and give me a Hostess cupcake he saved for me. Just a simple little ritual that created a cherished memory.
My mom had an established dinner hour (called supper back then). It wasn’t optional. It happened the same time every day except Sunday. You were expected to be there, your face and hands washed. It as a serious event. Talking was kept to a minimum. Fun and laughter were reserved for after supper. If you acted out during supper, you were seriously reprimanded.
Holidays were celebrated with vigor in the family home. My father was blue collar worker, with a modest income, and my mom was a homemaker. So, my parents obviously didn’t have a large disposable income. That didn’t stop them from creating really fun holiday events. We would get together with aunts, uncles, and cousins. the ladies would cook up some great food, the men made homemade ice cream, and we played until we were exhausted.
Summer vacations were always on a river or lake. My dad was an avid fisherman, and my mom would cook up his daily catch. Of course, the trips to and from in my dad’s 1930’s and 1940’s cars were always and adventure as well. One terribly stormy night coming home from the lake, our 1937 Plymouth quit running as we came into a small town. My dad nursed it to a garage and got it repaired. While it was being repaired, a tornado came very close to the town. The truck and auto repair shop was in a tin covered building. My mom got all of us kids and we sat under a semi-truck inside the garage until the storm passed. The wind, rain and hail pounding down on that tin building was terrifying.
Kids today have dozens of electronic devices available to them for entertainment. We had TV and radio. We didn’t have a TV until I was nine years old. The only thing on it that I wanted to see was the western movies on Sunday afternoon. We actually interacted as a family during the evening hours, talking and playing games. Working on hobby projects, doing jig saw puzzles. Simple stuff, but fun. Summertime on the front porch drinking iced tea and listening to my dad’s stories about his early years we heard countless times but somehow never got old.
Both of my parents have been gone for a long time now. I don’t think I conveyed the message very well of how much I appreciated what they did for me. As a matter of fact, I know I didn’t, and I regret that. If you’re fortunate enough to have a living parent or two, and they provided you with a happy childhood, and supported your endeavors no matter how crazy, let them know you appreciate it and love them for it.
