Lots of folks are saying that Israel is committing genocide. Genocide is a new word. For centuries, we had homicide for killing anyone. We had matricide and patricide for killing parents, infanticide for infants. But no word for genocide. In the 1930s, a man named Rafael Lemkin became deeply interested in the attempt by the…
Here is the current state of the US debt, from US Debt Clock. Click on the graphic to enbiggen. Every depressing number is there. National debt, thirty-four freakin’ TRILLION dollars. National debt per taxpayer, over a quarter million. Interest alone on the debt is now the largest single Federal budget item. As a result of…
A month or so ago, on X/Twitter, I repeated my public confession of committing voter fraud in our California elections. I’ve posted about it on Twitter back in the day, on X recently, Facebook IIRC, wherever I could. I repeated that I had read and I believed that mass mail-in voting was an invitation to…
I’ve written about my time in the US Army, and about spending time behind bars getting out of the Army, in my story called It’s Not About Me. In that story, I discussed a bit of my view on the Vietnam war, the view echoed by many who have studied it since—that it was the wrong…
I wrote a post a while back called “The Problem With Islam“. In it, I detailed why Islam is less of a religion and more of a terrorist cult. The terror starts in the home, with the men terrorizing the women. It moves out from there, with the death penalty for leaving the cult and…
A Jewish professor at the University of Southern California (USC, known locally as the “University of Spoiled Children) was walking by a pro-Hamas demonstration. His crime was to say: “Hamas are murderers. That’s all they are. Every one should be killed, and I hope they all are killed.” For this grievous error, he’s been told…
To my sorrow, I must confess that I am suffering from Palestinian Battle Fatigue. A little over a month ago, on 10/7, October 7th, cowardly armed Palestinians attacked unarmed people dancing in the desert or cowering in their houses, and gleefully engaged in executions, torture, beheadings, desecration of corpses, rape, necrophilia, dismemberment, and hostage-taking. And…
A bit of history for those interested. Three thousand years ago or so, there was a country called “Israel”, inhabited by 12 tribes of Jewish people. They built a Temple, built a civilization, and then some savages swept in, destroyed the Temple, and kicked their butts. No more Israel. Then centuries later, the Jewish tribes…
I see that Representative Maxine Waters, aka Mad Max, is busily trying to spend our taxpayer money buying votes. Her latest is a trio of bills regarding housing. One is called “THE DOWNPAYMENT TOWARD EQUITY ACT OF 2023”. Let me start by saying that Democrats and liberals are working hard trying to replace “equality”, which…
Well, I’ve been suspended by Twitter. They claim I violated the Twitter rule against advocating violence, in what I saw as a most innocuous Tweet. Here’s my response: Dear friends at Twitter, I fear I’ve been greatly misunderstood. I have NOT violated the Twitter rules against advocating violence. I’ve been suspended for the following tweet:…
Yeah, I know. You thought it couldn’t get worse for San Francisco. The city is going broke. The economy of the city was hollowed out by the COVID exodus to remote work. People are fleeing the excrement, junkies, and needle-ridden streets. And millions of square feet of office space are going begging for rent. Here…
When I was in high school in the 1960s, during deer season about one pickup truck in four in the high school parking lot had a deer rifle in the back window rack. Unloaded, of course, but the shells were in the glove box. There was never a school shooting. Guns are not the problem…
It seems that the US population has lost the ability to be outraged. I was a kid during the Eisenhower Administration when a con man named Billie Sol Estes was involved in bribing Department of Agriculture employees. There was such publicity and widespread outrage about the case that it was the subject of not one…
For reasons that will soon become apparent, I got to thinking about the verb “dehumanize”. I realized I didn’t know what it meant. So, I turned to the dictionary. Here’s Merriam-Webster on the subject: de·hu·man·izetransitive verbto deprive (someone or something) of human qualities, personality, or dignitysuch as. : to subject (someone, such as a prisoner)…
Well, my news for today is that I got permanently suspended from Twitter, without warning, without notice, and without reason. Not a temporary suspension. Permanent. No idea why, far as I know I’ve been coloring inside the lines. But what do I know, I was born yesterday. I’ve appealed it, but no reply. Over at…
