Uh-Oh: Trump Tweets


Trump is apparently referring to a bloody campaign Pershing conducted against the Philippines (Muslim) terrorists.

Now, bear in mind, we've had a week now where the media has fallen over itself to defend violence against American citizens just for saying admittedly hateful and offensive things. Punch a Nazi has never been more popular, with even "prinicpled" figures on the right basically suggesting that vigilante street justice is approved if the target sufficiently upsets Jon Podhoretz.

But now that Trump has suggested some Punch an Islamist Terrorist justice (in the context of an actual war, which is legal), we're going to suddenly hear a lot of tunes changing on this question of whether or not you toss out the rules when you're up against Nazis. One rule for for White Nazis, another much more humane and understanding rule for Brown Nazis.

I have incorporated this (concerning) new data into my Soros polling predictor for 2020 and the results are very concerning:

Trump: (-) 69.9%
Hillary: 99.8%
Egg McMuffin: 0.2%

If this concerning trend holds, Trump is going to have a early night in 2020.

109 in archaeology news for my Ashkenazi bros, the Lithuanians are excavating the Synagogue of Vilnius. the Nazis trashed the place in 1941 of course. then in 1965 the commies FLATTENED it, trying to erase all trace of the Jewish presence there.

157 Here's Trump telling the story at a rally. Seems clear that this is what he's referring to:

And General Pershing was a rough guy... and the year was early 1900s and this was a terrible problem. They were having terrorism problems just like we do.

And he caught 50 terrorists who did tremendous damage and killed many people. And he took the 50 terrorists and he took 50 men and he dipped 50 bullets in pigs' blood... And he had his men load his rifles and he lined up the 50 people and they shot 49 of those people and the fiftieth person, he said "you go back to your people and you tell them what happened."

And for 25 years there wasn't a problem.

158 The "Rough Riders" miniseries that was co-written by John Milius is primarily focused on Teddy Roosevelt, but also has a good portrayal of Black Jack Pershing in his early days, including showing that his troops were the ones who actually did the main assault on San Juan Hill.

The backdrop to that famous battle is that the Army Brass at the time had little but contempt for Roosevelt and his Rough Riders, since they weren't Regular Army, and they also had very little use for Pershing's colored troops (as they were called in the day) So they ignored both of them most of the time and ended up letting them have an objective that the higher ups thought was going to be a pointless slaughter, so why waste good units on it?

And then Roosevelt and Pershing went and won the damn thing, and the news got splashed all across the country thanks to Hearst. That's how careers are born.

P.S. Once Teddy became President, he was able to promote his old pal Pershing ahead of all of the more senior army generals who had always hated both of them.

Bumper car collision. First car traveling forward hits second car, propelling that car forward, into third car which killed Heyer.

Bumper car collision. First car traveling forward hits second car,
propelling that car forward, into third car which killed Heyer.



At about -- based on my assessment of damage to Challenger -- 10 mph
or less. Not quite certain how a fatality is possible at that speed,
and after so many impacts, but I'll withhold judgment for now.
.
.
.Based on a few simple facts I suspect it is like a transformer, more than meets the eye:

The car ramming story dropped off the msm radar the very next day.

The left went into hyper anti-gun mode literally seconds after the fatality.

The Mayor, Governor and Police are keeping their traps shut, not a peep from anyone of them except the rabid anti-gun stuff from the Governor.

No leaks of any kind and youtube keeps pulling down videos of the car crash.

No statements of any kind from the Prosecutor or his Defense Attorney.

I am beginning to suspect that we might have been fed a load of hogwash by the left.

Here's the thing. At the moment of impact, the other two cars must have simultaneously lifted their feet from the brake peddles for the force to be transferred forward. Which strains the bounds of credibility.

I've seen and been in my share of wrecks. I know the body damage. This was a 10 mph collision. Now can a 10 mph collision propel someone to the pavement where they crack their head open? Yes.

But I just cannot see the other drivers ahead, sitting in a riot, feet *off* the brake peddle.

If Heyer's death truly did result from a bumper car collision, what is the legal liability of the guy they arrested (who I assume was the one who initiated the sequence)?
Posted by: Deplorable Jay Guevara at August 17, 2017 03:31 PM (SRKgf)



Remember, I don't do criminal law, I'm not licensed where you live and I know nothing of Virginia law.

That being said, if he was the initial cause of the collision, he's likely criminally liable.

Let's strip this out of the riot context. Let's say you're going home after a busy day of playing with the Horde and avoiding work. You are stopped in traffic. There's a car in front of you. There's someone walking in front of the car in front of you.

Someone who is texting smacks into the back of your car at about 10-15 mph. It's just enough to slam your car forward so you hit the car in front of you and that car pins the person walking past between his car and the car in front of him. Due to crush injuries, that person dies.

You are not criminally liable because you are an incidental part of that chain. You didn't hit that car, your car was pushed into it through no volition of yours. Same with the car that actually hit the person. The person driving that car took no actions to strike the person, rather, they were hit. The person who caused the initial force is the one at fault.

Now, civilly? Everyone in that chain would be sued to hell and gone because if you weren't stopped so close to the car in front of you, that wouldn't have happened. But civil isn't criminal.

427 You are not criminally liable because you are an incidental part of that
chain. You didn't hit that car, your car was pushed into it through no
volition of yours. Same with the car that actually hit the person.
The person driving that car took no actions to strike the person,
rather, they were hit. The person who caused the initial force is the
one at fault.


In Texas each driver in a chain collision is liable. The thought on that is that you were following to closely if a car behind you drove you into the car ahead of you.

And the Filipinos, when bothered by the Left here wanting their denunciation of Trump for how Aguinaldo was treated will respond "WTF? That was 120 years ago, you idiot! Nobody cares about that!"

There is no statutory manslaughter.

If you do an intentional act that results in a person's death, you can be charged with Murder 2.

Posted by: blaster at August 17, 2017 03:37 PM (6mJ8T)

Manslaughter still exists in VA as a common law crime, punishable as a felony. And at this point we have no evidence, other than the screaming of the "off with his head" crowd, that his act was intentional.

Thanks.

It seems you wouldn't have to be all that close to be bumped into the car in front of you, particularly if your car smaller than the one hitting you.

I was once stopped in traffic just before the Caldecott Tunnel going from Orinda into Berkeley when I looked up to see a hurtling toward me.

I watched with growing alarm until I realized he'd passed the point of no return, and wouldn't be able to stop in time.

I cranked the wheel over, drove over the curb onto the center dividing strip. People looked at me as though I were crazy.

Just then there was mighty screeching of brakes as the oncoming guy laid rubber and stopped about a foot behind the guy who had been in front of me.

Now the people who had thought I was crazy smiled and nodded in respect.

That was exactly my own initial estimate of speed at impact.

Based on the fact that the impact forces were insufficient to bust open the radiator of the Challenger. No coolant on the ground.

At much more than ten miles per hour at impact, the rad usually gets crunched, and the vehicle will begin to visibly lose coolant right away.

Sure, even in public school I was administered a couple, but that's my point - IQ is relatively stable throughout life, but Trump is 71 and he probably hasn't taken an IQ test since he was a teenager. And I have to figure it would be relatively difficult to get your hands on an IQ test that Trump took in prep school back in the 1960's.

Posted by: rickb223 at August 17, 2017 03:45 PM (kPMrr)

------------------------------

Yes. On how to perform their jobs which sometimes means which laws are enforced or even which law violations are of any concern at all. Many laws are only enforced when the police are pissed about something else - for which a law doesn't apply or for having "their time wasted."

Often this is as basic as which sections of which streets traffic laws are enforced on. Other times it is left for the police to decide if they want to protect a statue of a former commissioner or some other random statue.

That I can believe. There are conversion charts that give you an approximate IQ based on things like SAT and ACT scores. Not entirely accurate, but usually pretty close, since the big IQ tests (WAIS / S-B) are just more specialized standardized tests.

For what it's worth, many high-IQ societies will accept SAT / ACT scores in lieu of an actual IQ test.

So then hiring-people and interviewer-types (to use the technical terms) shifted to looking at college degrees and other credentials, not actual exams or tests.

And here we are, where the college degree is devalued and signifies basically nothing, but if you don't have one you're extra-boned.

The left has been doggedly trying to "create" violence on the right by BEING violent on the left for a very long time now. With the media and hollywood supporting the vulgarity and violence.

This is part of a grander "alinskyite" plan, but it looks to be backfiring. Trump seems to be turning the tables and using his own "alynskyite" plan or response.

The left are losing their minds. They want the violence, but the violence on the left, that has been hidden and not spoken about for so long, is now being highlighted and talked about. Trump is brilliant. He is not afraid to speak the truth of what is right before our very eyes.

This is why they destroyed O'Reilly, and Bolling, and now trying to continue to destroy Hannity and Rush. Tucker is next. Tucker is telling the truth and people are listening to him. His stuff is going viral. What can they do? Only shut everyone down. Like Coulter and Michelle Malkin.

We are in the beginnings of really fighting back. And we can thank Trump for a lot of this.

I think it is working because of the magnitude of the backlash we are seeing. Out and out lying when the truth is on camera. They are desperate now. Frantic, and panicked. We need to keep up the pressure. It's a shame that Fox is now run by the left, because we can't lose anymore truth-tellers.

This is why we have trials.

I see a lot of people trying to acquit (or convict) based on the video.

I continue to make the point that Murder 2 is a proper charge in VA if he intentionally drove into the crowd. Murder 2 does not require premeditation (neither does Murder 1, btw).

The prosecution will have the following soon if they do not already - the contents of the "black box" on the car. The ECU will contain some amount of historical data. They will likely be able to tell how fast he was going, when he sped up, when/if he hit the brakes...

We do not know that. The car will.

Someone above estimated a 10mph crash from the front end damage. Look at the vid from the front, where the 2 cars get hit, and it appears to be a lot harder than a 10mph hit - the car that got hit directly takes significant rear damage.

In the video from the rear, you hear tire chirp right at the beginning. He accelerated hard well before the person closer to the crowd hit the car with a bat or something.

Posted by: rickb223 at August 17, 2017 03:56 PM (kPMrr)


Yup.

I think I've told this story before but whatever. Whenever I come up to a yellow light that's about to go red I check the rear view mirror to be sure the car behind me isn't assuming I'm going to run the light. It's amazing how many times as I'm hitting the brakes, the car behind me is speeding up.

One day I was coming to a light and there was a police car on the other side. I go to hit the brakes because I'm not going to run the light right in front of the cop and I look up to see that the guy behind me is not only speeding up but apparently had floored it.

I stepped on the gas and blew through a red light right in front of the cop. I glanced over and the cop was just shaking his head.

Posted by: alexthechick - a manatee life for me at August 17, 2017 03:50 PM (mf5HN)

---

Every single time, and not because I worry about the person ahead of me. I saw a car that had stopped at an angle to cross through 70mph traffic get rear ended when I was a little kid. If he didn't almost have his nose poked into the lane he would've been fine. As it was, he was pushed into traffic. Horrific.

You wouldn't think it possible, but I saw another similar wreck as a teenager. This driver was pointed straight ahead, so he should've been fine. The problem was that he'd already turned his wheels into traffic. Similar 70+mph t-bone, then cars rear-ending the wreck.

It's frightening how casually people approach driving.

Posted by: Max Power at August 17, 2017 04:01 PM (q177U)


He *could* have been traveling 15 mph. But the car in front of him would have had to had his foot off the brake, lessening the impact. Maybe, maybe not.

But the vehicle in question only has damage consistent with a 10 mph impact. You hit a brick wall, major damage. Wall doesn't budge. You hit something which will ease the impact - like a very lightweight car which then shoots forward - much less damage.

If it goes to trial, which I strongly suspect might never happen, it's going to be a nightmare of 'expert witnesses'.

Martial Arts says you are a very safe driver - you are driving sub-consciously. That is the real reason teenagers are such dangerous drivers; they have no sub-conscious reflexes. The job of the sub-conscious is to keep you alive in dangerous situations. It reacts in about 1/5th of a second - the conscious mind takes a second or more to make a decision. Its why fighting a properly trained martial artist is a disaster; he is .8 second ahead of a non trained fighter on each move.

--------------------------

From the Washington Post

But the only historical evidence that something like this actually happened appears to come from a letter written by a soldier who served in the Philippines.

"Mr. C.C. Booth of Dallas, Texas, who served in Mindanao under Pershing, recalls seeing him hang a Moro chieftain by the heels over an open grave, kill a pig, and then drop the Moro into the grave with the bloody animal,"

634 I think I've told this story before but whatever. Whenever I come up to a yellow light that's about to go red I check the rear view mirror to be sure the car behind me isn't assuming I'm going to run the light. It's amazing how many times as I'm hitting the brakes, the car behind me is speeding up.

Here's my driving story: I was stopped at a light. Looked in the mirror and it was becoming clearer by the second that whoever it was coming up behind me was not going to stop . I leaned on the horn, which apparently got whoever-it-was's attention at which point the car looked like it was plowing up asphalt trying to stop, which it did finally, complete with tire smoke.
Checking the mirror while stopped at a light is now SOP.

Expect any potentially exculpatory or explanatory records which do not jibe with the "narrative" to never see the light of day.

Lefty journalista Taylor Lorenz already deleted a couple of tweets.

One described, before the Fields incident, her seeing a Lexus being attacked by the "peaceful" antifa and bombarded with bricks and bottles.

Another said that she'd spoken to local cops who were all of the opinion that Fields had panicked rather than volitionally driving in the crowd with intent to harm.

Needless to say, once the preferred narrative gelled, these tweets promptly were treated to the "The Commissar Vanishes" method.

I always say that I'm a good driver because I'm a bad driver. Since I know that I tend to not really pay attention, I try to pay attention.

What I am an annoying driver about is that I caused an accident while turning left when I was teenager and I've been super paranoid about having enough room to make a turn into traffic ever since. I know I'm overly cautious and I try to be more aggressive when there are people behind me but still. I'm not planning on changing that though since I'd rather be yelled at and honked at and cursed at than hit.

701 Hey, long time lurker short time poster. And history nerd.

Honestly, I wish Trump didn't write this. Not because the sentiment isn't good, it is. And as someone who really digs the period between the mid 19th century and the mid 20th we can certainly learn a lot from Black Jack Pershing and the ward with the Moro Jihadis.

But this particular claim is just an urban legend cribbed off of chain emails. It's particularly naive because it involves ignoring the fact that Muslim terrorists were active throughout the Middle East, especially with the Wahhabi Ikhwan that are the prototype for the Muslim Brotherhood and AQ, and the Ottoman auxiliaries that answered the call to Jihad in 1914 and took part in the genocidal rampages in the region.

And that is what I think is the big issue I have. For one, it gives people false hope. If the Jihadis could be defeated so crushingly by using pig grease alone, they would have beenlong gone centuries ago. And it also indicates (rightfully or wrongly) Trump didn't research beyond the urban legend.

That said, I do like Trump.

And I would be more than game to see our troops use big grease coated bullets before going into battle, and maybe mix some pig guts in with the explosive package of bombs. If only because it might freak some of these monsters out.

Anyway, sorry for the rant.

783 My grandfather went with Black Jack Pershing to chase Pancho Villa, and acquitted himself well in that goose chase. He had nothing but good words to say about the man himself. He went on to fight in WWI, particularly at Belleau Wood, and his only comment about that was that those Germans sure did cause some mischief. I wonder sometimes about the understatements of people at the time and if that has changed our view of what actually took place.

Two cars -- as I recall, equivalent mass -- one doing 70 mph, one doing 65 in same direction. Sorry, I see that -- based on actual review of a slightly crinkled fender -- as a 5 mph accident.

I paid for it out of pocket. I was already spending so much money on insurance I didn't want to even have it on my record. Even though I would have won.

Indeed, and I plead guilty to that. It is something I have meant to fix for quite some time.

Though to play devil's advocate: just because it features in his autobiography doesn't necessarily mean it was true. Though it certainly does make it that much more likely. But you nose around a lot of memoirs in general- and maybe military ones from this era in particular- and you get a fair bit of "creative Liscense." Ultimately I'll have to dig into Pershing's bit and this case to see if he was like that or not.

I remember in 78 being on the Mess Decks and watching two First Class Petty Officers explode into a full blown fist fight. 0-Punches in about two seconds. And watching the entire First Class section of the Mess Decks instantly separate into black and white crowds. Each itching for a fight.

Didn't understand it at the time, as I was a pretty junior Sailor, with very little fleet time.

But it was damn clear that the issue went far and beyond whatever the actual words or actions which caused the fight.

Only later did I realize that the racial animosity and tension had carried through the fleet.

Well according to Rubio's method of blame assignment, you should be able to. He's wearing the symbol of an ideology that caused the world so much pain, so any shirt he gets ripped off of him, it's 100% his fault for wearing it.

And anybody who puts some the blame on you supports mass graves and gulags and struggle-sessions and mass starvations--they don't want to do that, right?

Who would think in 21st century after the death of communism, some people are still sticking up for mass graves and dozens of millions being force starved, but there it is!!

Don't know if this has been brought up, but one of the reasons for the
Moro Revolt against U.S. rule was that we were enforcing anti-slavery
laws in the Philippines - the muslim Moros had kept slaves for
centuries.

Screw the Moro's. Mindanao, where the Moro Bolo defeated Toledo Steel.

855 Yesterday I'm on this section of street that has an island, is wide, and gets wider right before the cross street.

Car in front of me was over to the right instead of in the middle. That happens, ppl think it's two lanes because it's so wide.

He pulls allllll the way over to the right just before the intersection and slows way down.

Totally looks like he's turning right. But being paranoid, I do not speed up to pass him as he's turning.

Well, good thing. The idiot goes all the way over to the right so that he can jerk the wheel to the left and make a u turn around the island.

Impatient person would have crashed into him when he suddenly swung to the left from the right curb.

Yuuuuuuge.

And he despised blacks. There were several "revolutionary" movements going on in Latin America when he was young. He joined the Cuban one, not because he thought Batista was an especially bad dictator, but because Batista was a mulatto.

(The Castro brothers shared his sentiments, BTW.)

858 A.G. Sessions was at Gitmo a couple of months ago.

Maybe he was checking samples for thinly sliced ham wallpaper? Menu of blood puddings.

I am completely baffled by this tweet of POTUS. He is good at making the illiterate media and twittersphere look up history. Then they shriek and pull their hair out. Perhaps it is a psych op to stun-morphing them into catatonia and mutism.

861 At 65, it doesn't take much to override the friction keeping you on the road.


Physics, how do it werk?

Depending on the vehicle there may or may not be aerodynamic lift on the car body. It is also possible that the vehicle has aerodynamic negative lift - which means the effective weight is increased at speed.

862 >The mayor tells the Chief of Police and the Chief of Police gives the order.

and the line cops CAN, as soon as they sack up, arrest the both of them for Failure to Perform Office, malfeasance, obstruction of justice, or civil rights violations


we need to be informing cops of their sworn duty to defend the Constitution, not of any "duty" to protect corrupt politicians, and especially not of those politicians that are actively stabbing the cops in the back with their propaganda War on Cops

In addition, ANY "sanctuary City" politician or burrocrat is guilty of 8 USC 1324 violations

If the cops act, this game is over for the democong

863 In "the Ol Corps" we knew all about the HUKS. It was because of the huks we S**t canned the 44 and adopted the 45. A Huk hoped up on pot would no even slow down when hit wiht the 44 - unless you put your round in his eye. Hit a pot smoking huk anywhere with a 45 he goes down. Then you can crawl over to him and apply some "K*Bar Justice".

Black Jack was a failure there BTW in case you did not get the word.
