Republicans Choose Trumpism Over Property Rights and the Rule of Law

Trump is just who he said he'd be four years ago. By rallying around him, Republicans are choosing to brand themselves in his image. (K.C. Alfred/TNS/Newscom) In more placid times, news that the president of the United States was encouraging aides to break the law by seizing swaths of private property along the southwestern border to build a wall might have caused more than a day's ripple.After all, legitimate controversy over the promiscuous threat of eminent domain (as well as illegitimate fears of a NAFTA Superhighway) dogged former Texas Gov. Rick Perry for a full decade, prompting him to eventually abandon his dreams of a Trans-Texas Corridor tollroad. ...
Gun Buy-back Schemes and Non-Compliance

Compelling Americans to surrender their so-called assault weapons has become “the newest purity test” for Democratic presidential candidates, according to the Washington Post. Beto O’Rourke, Cory Booker, Kristin Gillibrand, and Bill de Blasio have all endorsed mandatory buy-backs of assault weapons as a key step to reducing gun violence. But while such plans might be politically profitable in a left-wing primary, in practice they could end in catastrophe. When Australia and New Zealand initially mandated buy-backs of assault weapons, most gun owners ignored the decrees. Similar non-compliance over laws to surrender or register guns has since occurred in California, New York, ...
Winter and EVs

Winter – and cold weather – is just a few months away and that means more than just cold and probably snow. It also means power outages. Sometimes, these last for several days. Last year, for example, an ice storm in my area took down many trees and with them several power lines. The juice was off for almost a week. How does one recharge an electric car in this scenario? The answer, of course, is that one doesn’t. Not unless one has a whole-house back-up generator that produces the 200 amp service necessary to power the “fast” charger. Most people don’t have that kind of back-up power, because it’s expensive. The typical install is about $5,000 for the ...
“This Legalistic Stuff”

Here’s an AGW who at least admits he doesn’t care what the law says. A man is video-recording from a public sidewalk. A super-sized AGW (your tax dollars pay double to clothe and feed this one) struts up and demands ID – which the man recording declines to provide, citing the law which doesn’t empower the AGW to demand it. This sends the AGW into a hissy fit. He waddles around and eructs that he hopes the man gets hit by a car – what happened to “concern” about our “safety”? – and then wails about “this legalistic stuff,” clearly annoyed that the man expects him to respect “this legalistic stuff.” “I don’t ...
Sheriff Mistakes Innocent Man for Suspect, Dumps 10 Rounds Into Him—NO CHARGES

Kimble County, TX — Kimble County Sheriff Hilario Cantu is taking fire in the form of criticism after he opened fire on an innocent man, dumping 10 rounds into him and his truck. Quite unlike what the general public would face, in the form of criminal charges, Cantu will likely face no charges, serve no time in jail, and will potentially not even be disciplined for shooting up the wrong moving vehicle. What started out as a traffic stop for a missing license plate nearly turned deadly for both one police officer and one hapless innocent bystander. When officer Lee Meadow pulled over a Gray Chevy Colorado pickup he had no idea the motorist would allegedly pull out a gun and shoot ...
Where is the outrage about abortions?

It is such a shame that whenever an atrocity such as a “mass” shooting occurs there is outrage and calls for action. The recent shootings are indicative of acts committed by persons who are evil. Yet, there are calls to continue to regulate firearms ownership or as some would call for, the outright ban on firearms. Furthermore, the call for “red flag” laws which deny due process, property rights and firearm rights. However, there are constitutional rights addressing each of those. Where is the outrage and call for action for the approximately 600,000 children who are killed each year in the United States under the auspices of a mother’s right to affordable ...
Deadly U.S. Police Culture: Barney Fife Thinks He’s the Punisher

4 Comments
Barney Fife, of the celebrated 1960’s sitcom The Andy Griffith Show, was the lovable, bumbling deputy with a heart of gold. His clumsiness was endearing and provided a large portion of the comic value of the show. Even when his gun accidentally discharged, the audience would chuckle, and no one ever got hurt. Yet Sheriff Andy Taylor, clearly aware of Fife’s inadequacies, allowed him only one bullet, and kept him on a tight leash. Taylor, for his part, knew the damage such an accident-prone bumbler could cause when allowed too much power, even one as pure-hearted as Fife. If only every police department employed an Andy Taylor, someone with keen judgment and an understanding of the ...

Siblings Joseph & Joelle Chung Two high school tennis stars scored a religious liberty victory in Washington state after being kicked off the court for their faith. The Chung siblings, Joseph, 15, and Joelle, 17, both Seventh-day Adventists, a Protestant denomination that observes Sabbath on Saturday as recorded in the Bible, sued the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA) earlier this month after Joelle was disqualified from her final state tennis postseason competition because she doesn’t play on Saturdays. The Chung family, represented by Becket, a religious liberty law firm, filed a motion to withdraw their federal suit on Tuesday after WIAA agreed to add ...

It should come as no surprise to anyone that deranged cop hating is integrated into your nature and character with roots having long ago been implanted among your Paultard libertarian classless ilk – traced back through the years all the way to 2010 and even further beyond. To validate my charge against you, I refer you to article published in The Libertarian Enterprise and titled: Why We Hate Cops. The article follows: I remember the first time I heard anyone in "regular" society express hatred for cops (I'm not counting "revolutionary" times back in the '60's which on retrospect appear not to have been very serious). It was a friend of mine, a ...

They’re Will and no Grace. Stars from the hit NBC series “Will and Grace” are upset about an Emmy week fundraiser in Beverly Hills for President Trump next month — and vow to name and shame anyone who dares to show up, hoping to blacklist participants from working in Hollywood. “Please print a list of all attendees please. The public has a right to know,” Debra Messing tweeted Friday night in response to a Hollywood Reporter story on the upcoming event. She and co-star Eric McCormack called for the outing of all Trump supporters who attend. “Hey, @THR,” McCormack posted on Twitter. “Kindly report on everyone attending this event, so the rest ...

Shayn Striegel, a 27-year-old student at the College of Southern Nevada, was arrested and charged Wednesday evening after officers discovered the weapon while acting on a tip, the school said in a statement.

It was then determined that the student had a rifle and approximately 2,000 rounds of ammunition inside the vehicle,” the ...

Watching awards shows is an act of self-sacrifice that I suffer through a few times a year for the benefit of this site’s loyal readers. Although I strongly dislike sitting through these seemingly endless hours of televised garbage, I believe it is crucial to report on the messages that are being promoted throughout. Because, while most media sources focus their “coverage” on random items such as Cardi B’s boob dress, there is much more going on during these shows. And the young people who watch these shows absorb what is happening the same way a brand new sponge absorbs the dirty stinking water of a nasty kitchen sink. And, yes, in this beautiful metaphor, the dirty, ...

American Mirror – by Victor Skinner A Pennsylvania man was fined $100, plus court costs, for waving a finger gun at his neighbor, who reportedly felt “extremely threatened” by the ordeal. The incident occurred last June when 64-year-old Manor Township resident Stephen Kirchner was walking in his neighborhood with a female neighbor and a homeowner who had a simmering dispute with the woman flipped him two middle fingers, he told police. Court records allege Kirchner then “stopped, made eye contact with (the male neighbor) and then made a hand gesture at him imitating the firing and recoiling of a gun,” Fox News reports. The pretend shooting was caught on ...

A guy drinking a can of soda is almost Hut! Hut! Hutted! by a pair of armed government workers dressed to the nines in the very latest police state gear – multiple magazines at the ready; body armor. Taser mounted quick-draw-style and at the ready. This is the country we now live in now. One in which people can’t even walk down the sidewalk without heavily armed government goons accosting them. These two evince the contempt for the people they “serve” and “keep safe” by mocking the man for expressing concern about being confronted by a pair of armed thugs with a literal license to kill. Ask yourself what form of two-legged cockroach would perform such ...
Steely Dan’s Sophisticated ‘Countdown to Ecstasy’

EmailWith the success of their 1972 debut album Can’t Buy a Thrill and single hits “Do It Again” and “Reelin’ in the Years,” Walter Becker and Donald Fagen were compelled to transform Steely Dan from studio construct to working band. To record Can’t Buy a Thrill, the duo and producer Gary Katz had assembled a sextet to get the two songwriters’ original material on tape. Now they were pushed onto the concert trail to cash in on back-to-back hits while facing parallel pressure to deliver a sophomore set that could add to their career momentum. Stage and studio thus became crucibles for the original lineup, which consisted of other East Coast musicians: ...
International Space Station switches from Windows to Linux, for improved reliability

The United Space Alliance, which manages the computers aboard the International Space Station in association with NASA, has announced that the Windows XP computers aboard the ISS have been switched to Linux. “We migrated key functions from Windows to Linux because we needed an operating system that was stable and reliable.” In specific, the “dozens of laptops” will make the change to Debian 6. These laptops will join many other systems aboard the ISS that already run various flavors of Linux, such as RedHat and Scientific Linux. As far as we know, after this transition, there won’t be a single computer aboard the ISS that runs Windows. Beyond stability and ...

Leftist Politician Decides Cleaning Poop Off Seattle’s Streets With A Pressure Washer is Racist

Even though the courthouse and plenty of Seattle’s streets are covered in human fecal matter thanks to the socialist policies that have pushed people into poverty, a democrat has decided the streets cannot be cleaned up using a pressure washer. Using this method to get the feces off the streets is racist said city council member Larry Gossett in a tweet. The King County courthouse in downtown Seattle is located near the social service centers and several homeless shelters. A tent city has sprung up in the little park outside. There have been several assaults on courthouse employees, and even two attacks on jurors In May and June, leading to citizens summoned for jury duty to ...
