Violent crime is murder, rape, aggravated assault, armed robbery, manslaughter and most domestic violence. The FBI classifies these crimes as “intent to commit serious bodily harm.”
This table shows what the Democratic party is doing about crime. Nothing! Where is the outrage from minorities and women? Most homicides occur against Blacks. Chicago had 695 homicides in 2022. Blacks were the majority of victims. Where is the outrage?
Yet, year after year, Blacks continue to vote for Democrats. I do not understand their logic.
There are hundreds of cities run by Republicans. But only 1 city, Jacksonville, Fla. is on this chart. The data is clear.
Footnote–most of the mayors from these cities are Black! Same with Police Chiefs!
The National Wildlife Federation was founded in 1938 by Henry Wallace, a white man and Vice President of the US. The Federation is a non-profit, with 35% funding from private individuals, mostly white families, and 20% funding from major corporations. Much of the wildlife land in the US. was donated by wealthy white families, like Muir and Dupont. Almost all the land grants from the federal government to establish national parks happened during the presidency of white male presidents. Teddy Roosevelt is a grand example.
The same is true for state parks and city parks. Much of those areas were the direct result of white men and women in leadership positions with grants from white families.
Our National Parks and National Forests are wonderful. I have visited at least 24 in 12 states. Their beauty and grounds can be experienced by all who visit. In my 50+ years of enjoying the outdoors, I have never heard of anyone being excluded.
Yet, the National Wildlife Federation is condemning white people in their recent quarterly magazine. This is an outrage! Here are some excerpts from the Winter 2023 publication:
-“claiming our birthright…Black people are transforming conservation”
-“that relationship (Black Americans and the land) became deeply intertwined with oppression and unspeakable violence.”
-“Black researchers, writers, and environmental justice activists are changing the face of conservation.” Why is it necessary to single out 1 group?????
-“being out in nature often has not been safe for Black people.”
-“promoting events such as Taking Nature Black.”
-“Part of my childhood was camping trips, fishing, and ski trips in public outdoor spaces. It was only later that I realized it was unusual for a Black family.”
-“Historically, the conservation movement has tended to be insular and exclusionary, serving the interests of white male conservatists, and not allowing space for diverse perspectives.”
Why does the National Wildlife Federation find it necessary to condemn white males? Why does the NWF single out Black people? If Black people want to become involved with nature, I suggest they participate in the annual “Spring Clean-up of Rivers and Streams.” I have been involved with that effort for 6 years and I never saw a Black family being involved. It’s all volunteers!
Liberals have taken over another facet of America. Too Bad. I will do my best to see that their funding suffers.
I have officially submitted my idea for a new reality show on Netflix. I call it “Waffle House Fight Club.” Each week the show will feature the best fights from that restaurant chain, with interviews from eyewitnesses and analysis of the fight from guest thugs. The show will be a combination of Jerry Springer and WWE!
I propose to air the show on Friday nights so sports bars can play the week’s best fights. The Waffle House has 2100 locations serving late night breakfast in 25 states, mostly in the South. Of course, the show will have many local celebrities like ” Mash Brown, Cookonator, Master G, Counter Boy, Grit, The Scrambler, and Mama Link.”
I have begun to sign sponsors for the show. So far, Everlast, Nike, Folgers, Jimmy Dean, and Jiffy Mix have signed letters of commitment.
The selection process for the show’s host has started. Some good choices could be Will Smith, Alvin Kamara, Rhonda Rousey, flight attendants from American Airlines, and a few high school teachers from Chicago.
Glenn Youngkin was elected Governor of Virginia in the fall of 2021 and took office on January 15, 2022. He is the first Republican governor in Virginia in over 20 years. Currently, his approval rating is almost 60%.
Yet, the liberal media, including The Charlotte “Fish wrap,” is publishing slanted and negative articles about Youngkin’s agenda. The liberal press does not like his position on “gender-fluid” students. Youngkin believes parents have to approve when a student wishes to change his/her name or gender on official school records. I certainly agree with Youngkin.
As governor, Youngkin has proposed and is enacting many excellent policies for Virginia. Here are some examples:
-Complete overhaul to State’s mental health and substance abuse programs
-Adding 2000 more police officers
-Add more teachers and nurses
-Pledged that every high school (623) in Virginia offer classes in higher math
-Spending $685 million on preserving the Chesapeake Bay and investing on low carbon energy
-investing $15 million on opioid abatement. $38 million for mobile crisis teams
-$1 billion on tax cuts including lowering the State’s personal income tax
-Lowering the States corporate income tax to 5%
-Funding programs to fight the Fentanyl poisoning risks among kids and teens.
Governor Youngkin has pledged to get “all of this done” during his 4 years in office. My advice: charge ahead! Ignore the liberal media! And Best Wishes for Success!
Black political activists and “race baiters” use police shootings to stir up this country. Everyone knows that. These self-serving bigots appear in public and make grand generalizations about America’s oppressed minorities, usually Blacks. These same fools use the police shooting of a Black man to claim that America is systemically racist. Here is the truth.
In 2021, the police in the US. made 4,530,000 arrests. Regrettably, during those arrests the police killed 1,051 people. That percentage is .00023 per arrest! Approximately 200 of those killed were Black. And a certain number of those killed were “suicide by cop.”
That same year, 129 police officers were killed in the line of duty. Most of those deaths were felonious assaults, some even premeditated ambushes. The prior year, 2020, police deaths were 46! That is a 280% increase.
Any deaths during arrests and deaths of police officers while on duty are tragic.
As you can see from the above graph, deaths of unarmed suspects are at record lows. Most occur to white men. Approximately 11 unarmed Blacks were killed by police last year during the course of 4.5 million arrests! This is tragic, but not a sign of “systemic racism.” My research concludes that these 11deaths resulted from bad training, accidents/mistakes or committed by “bad cops.” Of course, there are bad cops just like there are bad teachers, coaches, dentists, lawyers, ministers, Congressmen, plumbers, judges, nurses, and auto mechanics. In 2021 there were 697,195 full-time police officers in the US. If 10 were “bad cops” then that percent is .0000143 of the total.
The shooting of an unarmed Black man in New York City is not a sign of systemic racism across America. If a male dentist in Houston sexually molests a patient that does not mean all dentists in the US. are molesters.
During 2021, the US. experienced 19,600 murders. A vast majority of these murders occurred in our large (Democratic) cities like St. Louis, Milwaukee, Baltimore, New Orleans, Atlanta, Memphis, Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, Newark, Oakland, San Bernadino, Cleveland, Kansas City and Little Rock. It is tragic that a vast majority of these murders were committed by repeat offenders. It is also tragic that a large number of victims were Black.
Also, my research shows that 1200 felonious assaults were committed by illegal immigrants in 2121. And the police arrested a total 10,763 illegal immigrants last year for various crimes. These numbers have increased dramatically over the last 2 years.
It is blatantly obvious to me that serious crime does occur in the US and that the amount of crime is increasing. It is equally obvious to me that the police are not the problem! They are the answer.
The democratic party leaders are very good at controlling the narrative. A central team from the DNC, White House, senior advisors, and key Congressional leaders decide the words to use when in public. That group is very strict. And-they makeup words and phrases, often these bits of narrative are hard to understand. Here are some examples:
-Climate Justice- no clue?
-Inclusive clean energy- not sure what this means but does sound “cool”
-Racial roads and trees. how is this possible?
-Disinformation (propaganda issued by the controlling party)
-Dreamers (this is very clever)
-Insurrection (what?) Guy in Viking horns
-Climate czar (private jets)
-Transitory inflation (Yellen is a fool)
-Native born Blacks (minorities in Major league baseball)
-Domestic terrorists (Trump supporters-70 million citizens)
-Covid relief bill (spending millions on pet projects)
-Inflation Reduction Act (spending more $$$$)
-Life’s Struggles (replaces SAT for college admissions)
-Gaslighting (bullying)
-Threat to democracy (opposition’s point of view)
-Woke investing (using social programs and environmental responsibility as criteria to select investments) Energy companies are being boycotted-UGH!!!!!
-Virtue signaling (social/political correctness when speaking)
-Megan Markle is a despicable person. Shame on Harry!
-Brittany Griner is “home!” The very essence of “mixed feelings.” I guess a Black, lesbian, WNBA star has a lot of friends. Will she stand for the National Anthem now???
-Twitter is corrupt and impacted national elections against the Republicans. It will soon be disclosed that the FBI was directly involved too! No wonder Trump is upset with the elections. Conservatives never had a chance!
-Paid $95 for a freshly cut Christmas tree. What was I thinking? Wine at the Teeter has gone up $2-3 a bottle. Biden caused all of this.
-For low-income people, shoplifting is a viable option. Sadly, same is true for higher incomes. I need a new pair of walking shoes; think I will go to Dick’s and steal a nice pair.
-Charlotte Observer is still running articles about the Capitol riot. This week the “fishwrap” reported 6 deaths that day. The editor must be stupid and/or dishonest.
-Disney raised their ticket prices. It costs $180 per person for a day pass. A family of four would pay $1400 for a two-day visit. I think Walt would not approve!!!
-The idiots on “The View” are apologizing again for saying something stupid or insulting. What kind of people watch that show???
-Charlote Hornets have 7 wins and 21 losses. Worse record in the NBA.
-White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, reads answers from a 3-ring notebook. This week she read the wrong answer to a question. She also uses bad grammar-her verb tenses are incorrect. But she is openly gay and a Black woman.
-AOC is in trouble again. The House Ethics Committe has her under investigation. Seems she was “comped” tickets to a $35,000 gala ball and shown wearing a custom fitted designer dress. The dress had large print red letters on the back that read “Tax the Rich.” She is an ignorant showboat, an empty vessel.
Deion Sanders (“Prime Time”) is the new head football coach at Colorado. He is a world class showboat but does backup his claims. Now he will coach in the Division 1 PAC 12. As part of this deal, the University agreed to lower academic admissions standards for athletic transfers. I guess Colorado will see more football player transfers. Hmmmmm???? I think this is a shift in the wrong direction. Academics first, then athletics.
Law schools are dropping the LSAT from the admissions process. Liberals claim the test is biased toward whites. That is because white applicants score higher on the exam. Hmmm? Currently, 60%-70% Black graduates of law schools do not pass the Bar exam. Next the liberals will go after that exam. It must be racist. Med schools are considering the same course of action. I am quite concerned about racial equity being used to train doctors!
Lastly, college majors to avoid-Journalism, Hospitality, Communications, Gender Studies, Music, Art History, African History, French Literature, Sociology, Culinary Arts and Drama. Graduates with these majors will receive Corvid checks from Biden while playing “Call of Duty.”
Since the elections are over, I have been thinking about our elected officials. What would I want the newly elected to focus on? So, if I were elected Governor of NC this is what I would do in my first 90 days:
-Conduct budgetary reviews with each state department to investigate where all the spending is allocated. I would “mark” each spending allocation that seems inconsistent with my agenda and give leaders 2 weeks to defend that spending.
-Investigate any public school that is under-performing. I would use End of Course ratings, especially the high schools to single out low performing schools. I would ask the Department of Public Instruction to develop plan to get all NC schools to the upper third of EOC ratings by 2025.
-I would remove any DA or sheriff that is not enforcing US. and NC laws. And I would remove from office any judge that allows hardened criminals back on the street.
-I would develop and execute a plan to rid NC of any criminal gang activity. The plan would include a state funded task force to find and incarcerate gang members. If non-citizens, they would be held of deportation.
-I would announce that peaceful protests are within the rights of NC residents, but any protestors that damage personal and government property will be arrested. Same with protestors that threaten people or cause them harm.
-Police would receive my full support. And I would award medals of valor for police courage.
-I would review the State’s plan for all types of major emergencies, especially hurricanes, and acts of terror. The national guard would be placed on notice that I would not hesitate to activate that service.
-Contractors and business partners of the State would be expected to meet contractual obligations. Contracts would not be awarded based on skin color or gender. Businesses within the state of NC would receive extra consideration.
-Teachers would get my help. Pay, benefits, working conditions, classroom disruption would be investigated and dramatical improved.
-Mental illness is a disease and would be addressed through funding and I would expect to see innovative solutions, and results!
-I would visit every military base in NC during my first year.
lastly, businesses would be supported in all ways. Tax incentives, college training, technical schools, land grants in rural areas, and especially the power grid. Businesses are attracted to locations with excellent State services, roads, housing, education, and a favorable business climate. I would require the Dept. of State and the State Chamber of Commerce to award top businesses with state grants to be used to grow their businesses.
I can’t believe there was not a “Red Wave?” Seventy percent of the people in the US believe the country is heading in the wrong direction. High crime, high inflation, open borders, mega spending programs, record gas prices, etc. yet the people voted for those in charge.
Buying votes worked! Young people voted for Democrats. Student debt forgiveness drove punks to the polls. Same with stimulus payments, rent pause, eviction pause, free laptops, childcare credits, expansion of SNAP and Medicaid. A third of Gen Zer’s are not employed.
Racial division worked! Blacks are oppressed and voted for Democrats. Philadelphia has been run by Democrats for 70+ years and the city is dangerous, with record high crime. Last year the city had 562 murders, this year 400+ so far. Seventy percent of those homicides were committed by repeat offenders. Almost all of these murders were committed on Blacks. Yet Blacks voted for Democrats.
Fetterman won his bid for the US. Senate in PA. I can’t believe people cast their ballot for him. One million early votes carried him into office. The early votes preceded the election by 50 days!!! And prior to the single debate. This election smells.
I cringe when Biden goes overseas to meet with world leaders. Our president should know the difference between Cambodia and Columbia! Ugh!!!!!
Caryn Elaine Johnson (aka Whoopi Goldberg) is in trouble again. She is despicable. She makes her money throwing horrible, personal insults at Conservatives. She is protected by her gender and race! She also needs to read more history books. To her, the Holocaust was a minor event.
Another fight occurred on a commercial airline. Passenger not behaving. Flight attendant sent to hospital. The FAA needs to make an example of these unruly people.
Republicans cannot win a national election. Google and Facebook distort the truth and post unbalanced reports against the Republicans. Every day I look at the Internet, usually first thing in the morning. New various articles are always slanted against Republicans. The reporting is so biased. And, regrettably, the young people use the Internet as their only source of news and “facts.”
Lastly, a white man was fired as sign language interpreter for the hit musical “The Lion King” because he is white. Production company felt the job should be held by Black person since it was about Africa. Madness!
Nancy Pelosi’s home was broken into, I think. Her husband, Paul, got hurt, I think. The alleged break-in occurred on Nov. 1. We still don’t have the facts. The DOJ, the police, and District Attorney are telling different sides to the story. This was a simple break-in! What are the facts???? We certainly know who has privilege! What exactly is being protected???
The US. Supreme Court has ruled against affirmative action!
The fundamental premise behind most of these terms is false and harmful to the US. economy. If a particular “class” of people is earning less, getting promoted less, granted loans less, graduating less, accumulating less wealth, living shorter lives, or being arrested more, then the “system” must be prejudice!!! That is the premise.
I reject that premise! There will always be the “lower 20%.” And the population of that 20% changes dramatically each year. Economists will tell you and much has been written about the scarcity of resources. Raw materials, water, investment $$$$’s, land, research and development grants are all limited and must be allocated on merit. No national economy can survive long term, if that economy dispenses resources based on “equity” or “inclusion.”
Regrettably, this country has been divided into “classes” of people. And our radical leaders propose policies that distribute resources to each “class.” Who decides the classes and the proportion each gets? Of course, this is madness! Allocation by merit is easier and more beneficial to all “classes.” Period.
Here is an example of “class” distribution of resources:
Clover, SC is a small town in York County, population about 7,000 people. The town has a local bank founded in 1955. That bank has about $10 million in deposits, and therefore can loan $1 million to residents. The bank manager and loan officer decide to be “fair” and make 20 loans of $50,000 each, and to make these loans based on “diversity.” The 20 loans will be allocated as follows: each of these “classes” will get 2 loans– Black women, Black men, Asian men, Asian women, Hispanic women, Hispanic men, white women, disabled men, LGBTQ+, and ex-felons. Merit is not a factor.
Do you see the problems with this approach? Will the bank be successful making these loans? Will they even find borrowers in these “classes?”. Of course not! And the bank will lose money! And people with great business ideas will not get many loans. And the city will not grow and provide jobs. And-the city revenues will decrease, thus social programs will be forced to decrease spending. Nobody wins!
Affirmative action, inclusion, equity, diversity, racial justice is all the same. It means a small group of people get privilege when allocating scarce resources. It also means that other groups will get completely left out. This is madness! Use merit for the allocation of resources!!
