The Morning Rant: J.V. Edition

punk-monkey.jpg

Sounds good to me. And in return we will reject the rule of law and due process and religious tests for public office and discrimination laws and...

Lenin was correct...we are selling them the rope with which to hang us.* That we welcome a culture into our country that consciously and actively rejects everything we stand for, have worked for and died for, is simply insane. We cannot apply American standards of fairness and generosity and notions of goodness at the borders. We have to be ruthless, just like we used to be in the past. The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, Ted Kennedy's gift to America, might be its destruction.

New Jersey: Imam says Muslims should reject "freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of the press"

Mateen Khan also explains how the “clever” Jews fooled the Europeans into thinking they were “one of them.” Does Mateen Khan believe in violent jihad, and that non-Muslims should be subjugated under Islamic law as dhimmis, and that Sharia should ultimately replace the U.S. Constitution? What do you think?
That sounds like sedition. I wonder if it is still illegal?

*Yeah..he probably didn't say it, but still...

The guy makes some really good points in this video, and it is hard to refute them. I am uncomfortable with the idea of granting voting rights based on military service, but it does make logical sense.

Don't be fooled by the rosy picture painted by the idiot crook mayor of NYC. The crime statistics look good because they have decriminalized, by law or de facto, many behaviors that simply don't belong in a civil society. New York City is getting more dangerous, dirtier, less interesting, more congested (screw you bike lanes!) and more expensive, all while de Blasio babbles incoherently about redistribution of wealth and fairness and equality and blah...blah...blah.

Bill de Blasio and the Return of Disorder

Gotham is in the throes of disorder. Law-abiding New Yorkers, no matter their race, ethnicity, sex, or socioeconomic strata, find themselves harassed by growing vagrancy, petty criminality, and social decay. Nowhere is this more evident than in New York City's public and quasi-public spaces.
The saddest part of the descent into madness that de Balsio is overseeing is that the worst parts of it fall on the poor. 5th Ave. and Rockefeller Center will always be clean and safe, but Brownsville and East New York and Fort Washington will get more dangerous for the people least able to afford to get the hell out.

20 My in-laws live in Brooklyn and a block away is a public park. I've been looking at the park from about 1983 to the present. It went from being a graffiti covered shithole surrounded by cars hit by "jewish lightning" (don't blame me that's what they call it) to a nice park. It's now back to being the former, except this time the graffiti is not in english-ish.

Illegality is a construct of the White Patriarchy and should be banned. The only things that should be illegal are denying Climate Change.

45 If you check out the system in Starship Troopers (the book, not the ridiculous movie), citizenship is conferred when the resident performs some probably uncomfortable and potentially dangerous service to the Federation. It does not have to be military service and the Federation is bound to offer appropriate service to anyone, no matter their disability. This at least ensures that everyone exercising the franchise has skin in the game. It would be an interesting experiment. Right now, people can vote for things that violate all sorts of laws, including the laws of physics.

46 Lets see if we can use the headlines to figure out the hierarchy in the
Democratic party of the various factions that make up the party.



Remember the slogan of Obama's supporters "Bros before Hos" applies
throughout. Convicted felon raises any sub group 1/2 step over that
general sub group.



At the very bottom of the grievance stack would be intellectuals (who
are traditionally first against the wall come the revolution, since no
real Communist wants to be around someone who makes them feel stupid),
then Latino women, then Latino men, then white women, then white women
pretending to be another race, next up is black women, then white men
pretending to be another race, then black men, then lesbians, then
transgenders, (since their link to 'women' weighs them down either way
the change goes) then male gays, (Bros before hos even in the gay
hierarchy) Hollywood Starlets, gay Hollywood Starlets, Hollywood Stars,
Gay Hollywood Stars, and finally at the top of the heap - as the Va Gov,
Attny Gen, and the Clintons prove: Klan members.

Also, if you can't figure out what grievance group someone is in, they are part of the Klan.

78 There is no logical way to change the mind of the open borders ideologues, because those zealots have no interest in the logic of maintaining liberty for the sovereign American.


The globalists are engineering their own hegemony, where the peoples of the world are viewed as their property, buyers and producers to be manipulated to deliver profits to their privately held entities.

The Marxists also took issue with sovereign peoples and their regional heritages. They devised critical theory to tear it apart from within, so the might state could attain ultimate control.


The forced invasion of the third world (Islamic yes, but also Hispanic cartels, Eastern caste system bigots, or real enemy spies from China) ... the invasion is coordinated by those damn New World Order oligarchs. Too Big to Fail, Too Big to Jail ... that is still real policy, ongoing around the world.

167 45 If you check out the system in Starship Troopers (the book, not the ridiculous movie), citizenship is conferred when the resident performs some probably uncomfortable and potentially dangerous service to the Federation. It does not have to be military service and the Federation is bound to offer appropriate service to anyone, no matter their disability. This at least ensures that everyone exercising the franchise has skin in the game. It would be an interesting experiment. Right now, people can vote for things that violate all sorts of laws, including the laws of physics.

My suggestion for voting? Tie it to income taxes vs. benefits received. If you're a net payer, you vote. If you're a net recipient, you don't.

Everyone gets something, but beggars cannot be choosers.

Yeah. It's never really great to have one caste alone rule a society - it'll naturally end up being their plaything, for their own benefit.

I like the idea of voting being based on a property requirement. I'm pretty liberal, so being a net-taxpayer would be enough for me, and it would rule out most gov employees from voting. I could see having military service be an exception, though. Enlisted men and officers have shown they have a stake in society, and should have a voice w/o regard to their tax burden, I think.

Every Governmental system eventually fails.

Its just a question of how long it will last before it is taken under by human nature.


The reason for the Second Amendment can be seen in the Declaration of Independence, which says its up to the People to decide their form of Government... its their duty and right.


The Founders understood that ONLY an armed People, will have a choice in what Government comes next, after the present government falls.

203 The guy makes some really good points in this video, and it is hard to refute them. I am uncomfortable with the idea of granting voting rights based on military service, but it does make logical sense.

It's a horrible idea.

Heinlein's proposal wasn't military service, but any federal service. So Pvt. Joe Snuffy's vote is balanced out by Judy Smith, who spent two years working for the EPA to "clean up" a river, or as a page in Congress. In fact, you'd likely see a huge amount of government positions created for all those happy little leftists to earn their voting rights. Meanwhile, there'd be less concern regarding military casualties, since they're more likely to be right-wing voters once they get out.

Implementing such a system would likely result in a hereditary ruling class where the children of the privileged would be sent to cushy jobs while the those who weren't part of the elite are sent to die on foreign battlefields before they can become a problem.

Successfully solve the equation, the voting machine unlocked, one voted, and one's deposit was returned.

And, weirdly enough, they think we can reach that perfection by merely following good intentions, throwing good money after bad, and abandoning objective reality under the notion that if we all believe the same fantasy then it's the same thing as reality.

People who contribute nothing to the treasury having a say in it how it's spent is silly on its face.

Those same people potentially being on the receiving end of transfer payments from the treasury is even sillier. It makes less than no sense.

When you think about it, universal suffrage in a welfare state is one of the stupidest single ideas in human history.

Also: Voting IN PERSON on election day.

Every other change has been to enable more fraud, such as:
-- Motor-voter - makes a mess of voter rolls that blue states then never clean out, so they have wiggle room for voter fraud (easier to hide late ballot dumps if voter registration #s greatly exceed # voting-eligible residents)
-- Same-day voter registration - allows voting in multiple precincts/states (right?)
-- 100 % mail-in - allows others to vote using your ballot
-- Early voting - makes it easier to vote in multiple precincts/states
-- Ballot harvesting - AYFKM?

247 Before y'all start re-writing citizenship rules, please step back and remember we only vote for one office nationally.. the President.

We are a Republic, and mostly vote locally to send Representatives to our state houses and Congress.

Seems to work pretty well to me!

All the worries about influx of aliens taking over our government ignores two facts:

We've got enough home-grown Free Shit Army generals right here like Occasional-Cortex, 90% of millenials and a good portion of the rest of the country who would rather take the dole from Uncle Sugar than go get a job.

Point 2 - the immigrants tend to migrate to blue states.. having super majorities of Dems in, say, New York or Cali or even Illinois doesn't give them any more representation.

Sucks for us in those blue states, though!

There is always the threat the gimmes will take over and start voting themselves more free shit..

270 We may have to decide to let it burn. If those who can do anything, won't or cooperate with our enemies then perhaps giving in all the way would be the better option instead of fighting every inch.

I say that because whether they're doing this to enable it or just don't care, a massive influx of illegals will over burden the welfare system bringing it to a halt.

That means a lot of possibly innocent people will suffer but they will most likely anyway. The rich and middle class won't get hurt too bad and the lower classes will get it in the neck no matter what.

That was one of Piven'Cloward strategy I believe?

So let it happen open up the borders and let a million or so come in and allow the bleeding hearts to see and experience what happens. The cleanup will horrendous but I think we'll finally get a wall or else collapse. And in a collapse the newly arrived will be at a distinct disadvantage.

300 this is how I think of Bezos, a smart guy that fell for a little or nothing blow job.

half his fortune and a hell of a lot more in funds and perception .

he's a typical shlub, led around by his nature, instead of his brain. And not a king that people won't remember and laugh

301 In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.

302 Why is Mayor Buttgig important, again???

Posted by: kraken at February 12, 2019 12:04 PM (90T4r)

Because he is queer, and a Democrat.

303 290 Mark and your package That You thought was so awesome having been exposed to everyone and the hook line and tits it took to get you on it?

The juice is worth the squeeze. Sure Bezos is having a rough time of it. But he can always walk away and MERELY be a multi-billionare in retirement any time he wants to.

304 258 I got asked once, would you rather have sex with a beautiful woman.......or make money?"

If you're a gigolo, you can do both at the same time.

305 Virginia Governor Northam restores voting rights for over 10,000 previously convicted felons.

Posted by: Newest Nic

He's touting this as everyone deserves a second chance and his administration is dedicated to promoting civil rights.

What a load of lying crap this guy is on so many levels. I guess little infants have no civil rights, eh crap weasel?

306 Bezos believed the company Hype. He thought he could do anything and succeed at it.

He thought he could get away with cheating on his wife and still retain all his wealth as he wouldn't get caught.

Most men and women are brought down by over confidence, greed and laziness.

It's easy to think you'll get away with something if you already have. You don't stop to think that maybe you've got enough for a while. And it's easier to keep doing what you've been doing than to back off and do something else or just take a break. We're all driven by our desires. And they're hard to ignore.

307 Mark worth the squeeze? SHE outted him and his less then manly self, no hero, just a dick on wheels.

Posted by: willow at February 12, 2019 12:12 PM (gLMhO)

308 Having observed many charismatic people, It's confidence you have to have. Confidence in your self and/or what you're doing.

That attracts both women and job offers.

I believe that having a woman attracted to you (at least one) is necessary for long term confidence which is the real decider of whether you get rich or not. And yet even then smart and confident people fail all the time.

Posted by: jakee308 at February 12, 2019 12:14 PM (WG0xd)

309 I think Bezos got ratted out by his girlfriend's brother or brother in law who works for AMI.

Posted by: jakee308 at February 12, 2019 12:16 PM (WG0xd)

310 Jakee, why would his Love of His life, His main Squeeze show a brother her Lovers, her Dear one, his dick pics?

hahaha

312 I believe that having a woman attracted to you (at least one) is necessary for long term confidence which is the real decider of whether you get rich or not. And yet even then smart and confident people fail all the time."

I had a geology professor way back when, a very smart and engaging South African who had come up with a novel way to find untapped gold deposits, and put together a well financed group to test his theories. He was very smart, very confidant, but the result, as he explained it, was an "engineering triumph, but a geological disaster."

After that, he explained that "I did what all Great Failures do - I became a College Professor!"

320 History is full of stories of the rich and powerful being brought down by the promise of a little strange. The Bible is a good place to start with that history.

321 Anyone know how, why and when our Senators and Reps became employees of/paid by the Federal government? I would like to see each state pay their Congress critters from state funds and set their compensation as each state feels is appropriate.

Might make them think a little more about where their loyalty lies.

Nah, no brag required. But I think a lot of behavior with men is related to feelings of inadequacy in 'that' department. So they have to compensate with the shiniest car, the biggest boat, the latest toy. Maybe swap out the wife for some other bimbo to prove something.

Posted by: Newest Nic at February 12, 2019 12:29 PM (jYje5)

323 Damn I'm always late to the game. I always take the time to read all the pun filled posts here, then my curiosity gets the better of me and I have to wander off into the Wormhole internet and try to figure out what y'all are talking about. Then my ADHD leads me down some rabbit hole by the time I have figured everything out you all have moved on. Always late to the game but still playing besides it's still more interesting than caring for the paterfamilias
