The Morning Report - 5/27/22

marxdidthat.jpg

Good morning, kids. The weekend is here and I'm probably not going to be able to properly articulate what I'm thinking and feeling in the wake of the past few days, to the extent that I might come off sounding like a tone-deaf idiot (something that, believe it or not, has happened on more than one occasion), but I'll attempt it anyway.

I'm just not that concerned about the mass shooting in Uvalde, TX. It's not that I don't care, or that I'm unfeeling. I weep for the victims. It is a tragedy; one made that much more tragic by the naked politicization of the victims and by the fact that those who dare point the finger are as guilty of the act of mass murder as the deviant in question who pulled the trigger. It's not about guns, and it has never been about guns.

It's about the mental state of the shooter. And the cultural rot that infected our society by Godless Communists from within and without since the Second World War that has destroyed the family, morality, ethics and personal responsibility is the reason this happened. It's not only why this and the relatively rare mass shootings we have had to endure happened (the media lies about the frequency notwithstanding), but the crime and dissolution that has killed tens of thousands of our children and wasted the lives of millions more. You can add the shooter and all the shooters to that list as well. But let me be clear that it does not nor can it ever absolve them of their guilt, but for lack of a better descriptor they too were "victims" in a sense of Leftist mind rape that fucked them up royally.

I'm not that concerned because the same forces of evil that led to this mass shooting are doing things, via incompetence or malice aforethought that are already leading to the deaths and suffering of millions of us. Andrew Cuomo, and his fellow angels of death in blue governors' mansions intentionally killed thousands of frail, vulnerable senior citizens by forcing others infected with the General Tso's Sickness to live with them, all for the sake of keeping their Medicare funds solvent. And there's the death of many thousands more by drug overdose, alcohol abuse, suicide and untreated diseases because of the lockdowns, the deaths of and/or exacerbated by the Peking Pox because cheap, proven, readily available anti-viral therapeutics were prohibited but expensive vaccines were pushed and mandated; vaccines that VAERS indicates have killed or maimed possibly tens of thousands.

21 beautiful souls wiped out in one horrible morning in Uvalde and the Left go ballistic, pun intended. A dozen or so equally beautiful yet deeply troubled souls are wiped out every weekend in Chicago alone, a city that has been run top to bottom by Democrats for decades. Ditto Baltimore, Detroit, Compton/South Central, etc. etc. etc. Where's the outrage? Where's the anger? Where are the cries of "we must act now!?"

6 people killed and 62 injured when a Leftist-inspired terrorist mowed them down in a Waukesha, WI Christmas parade. I don't seem to recall either Michael Moore or Rob Reiner blowing a fuse over that one. Ditto the mass shooting last month in a Brooklyn subway station where, miraculously, no one was killed. The psycho who walked up to a stranger on the Q Train last Sunday and just blew him away? Meh, small potatoes, right?

Speaking of southern Texas, did you see this fun factoid down in the Immigration Section?

DOJ: 56% of Federal Arrests in 2020 Took Place in 5 Judicial Districts Along U.S.-Mexico Border

"Among those five border districts, the greatest number of arrests took place in the Texas Southern district, where marshals processed 25,270 arrests. That equaled 21.0 percent of the national total of 120,112."

I recall Malig-Nancy Pelosi describing these angels as having "the spark of divinity" in them. Along with monkey pox and Chinese COVID, dengue, scarlet fever, yellow fever, typhus, measles and tuberculosis and all sorts of diseases heretofore wiped out up here, they also have intentions or raping, robbing and murdering anyone they might encounter, as well as tons of everything from marijuana all the way up to crystal meth and fentanyl. Yeah, the fentanyl that took the life of their Saint George Floyd, not the knee of Derek Chauvin, but I better withdraw that before Nina Skankowicz has me thrown in jail for disinformation peddling and besmirching the name of a deity. The fentanyl that is killing thousands of other American youths whose lives are bereft of innocence, joy, purpose, wonderment and hope, having been robbed of them by the aforementioned half-century of cultural/spiritual rot. The fentanyl coming from Communist China that really is tantamount to an act of war.

Weep for the children of Uvalde? Sure. But you're going to be weeping for your own children before long. And guns will have precious little to do with it.

Americans can’t afford to buy a used car or even gas because the Left doesn’t want them to drive. They can’t buy homes because the Left wants to destroy the suburbs and force everyone to live in megacities. They have trouble buying meat because the Left wants them to eat soy.

The same is true for the whole exercise in planned economic misery that we’re experiencing.

Take Hoover's "A chicken in every pot and a car in every garage" and reverse it. That's the goal. What we’re living through is not an unintentional accident: it’s the American Holodomor.

The Left doesn’t want you to be able to drive, buy a home, or enjoy a burger.

Naive Republicans will say that, “Biden is not paying enough attention to the border” or “Biden is not paying enough attention to inflation”.

That’s like saying Jack the Ripper wasn’t paying enough attention to cutting up prostitutes. . .

. . . This is not a conspiracy theory. The only assumption being made here is that the Left is achieving its stated goals as the result of a plan rather than a series of accidental coincidences.

Too many Republicans are failing to hold the Left accountable by refusing to state what is going on. Hanlon’s Razor, “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity” is fine when it’s not being applied to an ideology that is achieving its objectives through its actions.

That’s not a conspiracy theory, it’s policy.

Pasting Biden’s “I Did It” stickers on gas pumps is fine, but he’s completely expendable.

If Americans don’t understand that our misery isn’t an accident or incompetence, but part of a plan then the downward cycle will continue to play out with increasingly worse outcomes.

When I said guns will have very little to do with it, in the context of Daniel Greenfield's observations, I take that back. If you are unarmed, either the government will compel you to do things or roving bands of desperate people. Either way, same outcome. That is if you and you children don't starve or freeze to death first. Who will be left to weep for them?

Stolen elections indeed have consequences. But it wasn't stolen on Election Night 2020 or even the year before. It was stolen decades ago by evil people with evil intents. Much like Islam, Socialism is generational. It never ceases, it never rests. It has poisoned our society by first and foremost stealing the souls of our children, having done so for easily two to three generations if not longer.

We are going to have to cleanse this evil to end this insanity or bring it down to a level approaching rarity. Ironically, we're getting to a point where the only way to do that is with guns. And that too will be the fault of the heathens who drove us to this point. God help us. And God help the evil bastards who are bringing about our destruction.

Have a good weekend. Memorial Day Weekend. A time when we remember with reverence all those who gave their lives to defend this nation and our freedom.

You talk about weeping? They're looking down from Heaven and shaking their heads.

21 Notice that the Great Replacers have their own set of rules and do not have to follow the law!

All of the border crossers and illegal aliens used Department of Homeland Security (DHS) forms as their proof of identification, as Biden has allowed them to bypass standard TSA [Transportation Security Administration] rules where American citizens must show photo identification to board commercial flights. Most shockingly, perhaps, the forms border crossers and illegal aliens are allowed to use as official forms of identification for TSA include arrest warrants, deportation orders, Notices to Appear (NTA) in immigration court, and federal custody booking records.

34 The Republican Party's future depends on getting rid of corrupt octogenarians like Mitch McConnell. Any party who supports his disgraceful obsequiousness to the Democrats narrative fallacy du jour will not get my vote. Republicans may well win the midterms because people have nowhere else to turn. But that's not an argument in favor of their governing, it's desperation and not our raison de'etre. I don't want ideological "purity". I want a part of principles and right now that's not apparent.

Does Greenfield also point out that the Right also doesn't want them to drive, have a home or eat meat? Because so long as the Ruling Class GOP-e get their subsidies, staffs and perks, they don't give a single shit what the left does. FFS, they stole an election in broad daylight, and super-cons like Cruz and Paul awarded medals of bravery to the jackbooted thugs who murdered the Americans who dared protest!

After becoming a resurgent party in 1995, it took less than a decade for them becoming an exhausted political party.

It was apparent as far back as 2007 that the GOP was largely an illegitimate political party and as useless as a pile of dog shit.

As I've noted frequently, the GOP has controlled the House for 20 of the last 28 years, the Senate for 16 of the last 28 and the White House for 12 of the last 28.

We have literally nothing to show for this political control.

67 you know, this was really just looking at legislators who occupy an echo chamber – uh, echo chambers of misinformation online, you know, around things like anti-masking, election denial, COVID denial, and even some who affiliate with movements that believe the federal government is illegitimate, Steve.

This is where the real crackdown begins: to shut down any source of information that doesn't submit to the narrative and then label anyone who's actually trying to see past the smoke and mirrors "insurrectionists."

Masks don't work.
The American government condemned tens of thousands to die by forcing treatments that didn't work over treatments that did.

72 If you make violent threats as a juvenile, it should be an automatic suspension of your right to own firearms until you are beyond school age. It should be treated as a quasi felony and permanently on your record. I've had enough of juveniles committing heinous offenses only to hide behind that shield.

83 Skip posted a link to the most recently revised timeline of the Uvalde slaughter on the last thread. Police were within feet of the killer before, during and after his massacre of innocents, exchanging "rounds", negotiating (!!!), and waiting for a team to be assembled to assault the gunman's location.

They still haven't quite figured out how he managed to barricade himself into the room where all the killings occurred, which was actually a double room with doors between them (which also means each of those rooms had an entry door of its own - leading to the idea that two cops could have assaulted through the doors and caught the murderer in a pincer.

As it was, they just waited until he ran out of children to kill, and the Border Patrol dude(s) then charged in and killed him.

You duck behind walls or whatever else will provide some cover and you move forward. You don't stand around outside while kids are being murdered inside. And yeah, you may get shot or you may get grazed (like the skull of the Border Patrol agent who finally did the job did), but that's a risk you need to be willing to take if you're a cop.

100 Results from this study strongly suggest that mask mandates actually caused about 1.5 times the number of deaths or ∼50% more deaths compared to no mask mandates.

A rationale for the increased RR by mandating masks is probably that virions that enter or those coughed out in droplets are retained in the facemask tissue, and after quick evaporation of the droplets, hypercondensed droplets or pure virions (virions not inside a droplet) are re-inhaled from a very short distance during inspiration.

This is kind of like when the fall turns cold and everybody stays indoors and then get tat fall cold or flu.

[The] angels of death in blue governors' mansions intentionally killed thousands senior citizens...for the sake of keeping their Medicare funds solvent...The fentanyl coming from Communist China that really is tantamount to an act of war...Socialism is generational. It never ceases, it never rests...It has poisoned our society by first and foremost stealing the souls of our children, having done so for easily two to three generations if not longer. - J. J. Sefton

These shooters reflect what we have become. In a healthy society these unthinkable acts would mostly be unthinkable but that is not the reality today. We have a Marxist infection that is relentlessly untethering us from everything that tethers us to the ground and God, and it is accelerating. I fear we are rapidly approaching the time of capitulation or conflict, the time of reaping what has been sown. The question left is what will be planted anew.

People treat adults and near-adults differently than they treat children. It was, among other things, the senseless death of a child by stray gunfire in the "no-go zone" of Chicago's State Street Corridor that finally led to real reform of the projects in Chicago and the decision to proceed with the (ineffectively managed, decades long) demolition of most of the the brutal, dense and deadly housing projects around the city, perhaps most notably Cabrini Green (not south side) and Robert Taylor (south side).

It doesn't take that long to get firearms competent if you have a sergeant (or anyone proficient) teaching you what to do...I'll never forget field training, when I touched a 9mm for the 1st time. By the end of 4 hours, I could take it apart, clean it, put it back together, shoot it, and hit something (although hitting something when rolling/moving - well, that needed more work)...

I seriously doubt that. If word of that got out - and the odds are good that it would - it would result in an unregulated riot and fair number of homeless and dead cops and other people involved.

Such an order didn't need to be given. This guy walked into a school and started firing, the cops went in and got some return fire, so they withdrew to reduce risk to themselves while probably following some manual about building overwhelming force. The process and their obligations took care of this all on their own.

That's how my high school was set up. There were, I think, five doors in the main classroom wing, one in the lobby, two in the gym, one in the cafeteria, one on the other side around places like the band room. Only the lobby door was open for ingress. You could leave at any time you wished from any other door, but only one way in and when we had to go to a class in an outbuilding (we had some double-wide "temporary classrooms" and the like), you had to go back to the lobby to get back into the school unless the teacher escorted you and opened a nearer door or you slipped in while other people were leaving.

As J. J. Sefton noted today, all of this is treating the symptoms of the cultural disease caused by the Marxist left. Until this can be cured we are left to deal with the individual symptoms. The Israelis school security model is a start point. TLDR: multi prong approach that includes a healthy dose of profiling, adequate human security, and building security. It seems to work. The profiling part is something we don't do but should. These shooters tend to be in their late teens who erupt with what seems to be paranoid schizophrenia and violent obsessions expressed online. It also seems that everyone in their community knows they are lunatics. There is a start point here somewhere.

226 I feel the same way about the current bickering over politics (Oz vs Barnette for example) that JJ does over this shooting. It is going to amount to nothing when we come to the realization that MAGA has been infiltrated by GOPe grifters, what ones that are MAGA will be removed by the establishment next election cycle and the fact that the left doesn't intend to allow a peaceful transition of power should, by the off chance, we win a presidency because they screwed up and didn't plan their cheating properly.
Should we continue to politic and vote like pre 2020? Yes I believe we should fight back with the only peaceful tool we have left, voting, but be prepared come 2024 because that is when the shit will certainly hit the fan. I hope I'm wrong, but we aren't voting our way out of this or chipping away strategically at the lefts hold on power. We can win all the local races we want, but at the top, them SOB's ain't giving up peacefully what they've worked so hard to obtain. Listen to their rhetoric, up front violence or undertones. They have Law Enforcement, the military that they are currently shaping to their liking and shock troops that they can summon in the streets.

We are past the days of simple disagreement - its not conservative versus liberal or a genteel difference of opinion. Everything the left promotes kills, maims and destroys - I think we are now realizing intentionally because they want us to transition to something else, something far more sinister where a few of them have all the control of any of the rest of humanity that remains. We are living in an undeclared global civil war- the other side realizes it, but we are still living in denial when we think we just need to vote harder or "make our voices heard".

For the folks who Uncle Sam sent to the world's shit holes, what is a very common sight in low trust societies is the overwhelming presence of the colonial architectures, use of walls, concertina wire, gates and barred windows.

Cut a group off from re-supply for a while and they'll collapse. There's not really map movement suggesting large scale collapse but the Russians are taking tiny bites. From the article:

And in recent weeks, he said, the situation has gotten much worse. When their supply chains were cut off for two days by the bombardment, the men were forced to make do with a potato a day.

They spend most days and nights in trenches dug into the forest on the edges of Toshkivka or inside the basements of abandoned houses. “They have no water, nothing there,” Lapko said. “Only water that I bring them every other day.”

305 My nephew died one year ago today. He was one week away from his 27th birthday.

He died of a fentanyl overdose when he and his girlfriend bought some pills off of a guy they believed were oxycodone but we all later found out were actually homemade pills made from fentanyl.

His girlfriend only survived because she became ill and vomited. My nephew wasn’t so lucky and never woke up after he went unconscious.

The dealer was indicted by the DEA in Federal court this past Tuesday. The girlfriend was indicted for “Conspiracy” in order to make her testify against the dealer.

I despise Biden, the Mexicans, and especially the Chinese for making this happen. My nephew died because the Chinese want revenge for the Opium Wars and to make billions of dollars on the graves of dead Americans.

Brandon, my nephew’s name, died because Joe Biden and the Democrats want a wide open border now in order to win future elections, damn the enormous consequences.

I lean towards this position, that the Federal government is beyond hope and if we are going to weather the leftist occupation that it will happen in the various States. That is a tough route to success strong but the states are the only political entity big enough to withstand the leftist controlled national government.

It's disgusting to politicize this issue, but since Dems are already doing exactly that, it's worth pointing out that they are making another huge mistake here. By using this shooting to go on and on about George Floyd and Trayvon and whoever, they are telling Hispanics across the country, in very clear terms:
Only Black Lives Matter.

429 One would think China would see its edge slipping away. That politburo in Beijing ought to be wracking their brains, trying to think of ways to keep their foreign customer base in the midst of this sea of adversity.

But no. Instead of trying to demonstrate their willingness to improve service, to work around the clock to remain a dependable source, China is instead declaring lockdown after lockdown. Just in the past six months, Xi’an, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Beijing, and now Tianjin, massive cities that all fell victim to authoritarian shutdowns for weeks or months by Chairman Xi Jinping.

.. actually the pandemic started with China trying to be the reliable partner .. it stamped out WuFlu with ruthless efficiency. But like the other parties that went the "Zero COVID" route, gradually the WuFlu overtook them/ Now china is just trying to prove that their original CPP decision to go "Zero COVID" was correct, but they are losing to the virus.

430 Having 33 governors who run on protecting his constituents from the avarice and capricious ignorance of the federal government is maybe the best chance of reforming. I am skeptical that it is possible though.

432 This “smart military blog” apparently knows sh*t about what is going down in Ukraine.

Instead this blog has been selling the Globalist’s and Demented Biden Administration’s propaganda that the glorious Ukrainian freedom fighters are making a mockery of the Russian military.

How are we learning about the ignorance of this “not too bright military blog”?

From some Russia-aligned alternative media? No.

Instead, from Jeff Bezos’s personal media brand, the Washington Post (as reported by Zero Hedge):

435 How many kids did PP kill last year?

1,300,000, about 3,500 per day, on average.

436 Probably not the right time for this, but I wonder if this isn't designed to demoralize the police and leave society even more lawless. We are the folks that support the police and the legal system. Stories like these put us on the side of those wanting to defund the police. We need to get rid of incompetent cops. But I feel like we are being manipulated.

437 One would think that at least one of those cops who were standing around would have the character to act out and go in and do the job as Ablabrado did as soon as he was aware of the problem.

Hey, dummy. Just pointing out the narrative shift in the MSM. Not commenting that I felt duped by prior reports of Ukes military prowess.

442 Whilst I agree that the Commies have done a lot to destroy this country, and with purpose and intent, I must disagree that it was even the majority of the cause. Humans have free will (special needs/mentally ill aside) and we have, for centuries (I'd argue) been sliding down the egocentric path that's brought us here - and we've *chosen* this path. The majority of what we're seeing today is, in fact, self-inflicted, either by willing participation or by willful laziness. Parents all too often failed to raise children, either "letting them grow up" or letting the state do it. This abdication has been widespread as the radical individualism of Western culture has naturally developed. In the end, the Communist poison can only truly take root where the ground has been prepared through neglect if not outright abandonment.

443 58 The local PD put out a call to all agencies for a response. That's partially why you had such an overwhelming response.

For all the good that did except to restrain parents trying to save their kids. I did see that some of the cops were able to save their own, however.

I think you misspelled the word "damn" as "help."
