I finally watched Kong: Skull Island.

I lost the movie at 30 min in.  I get that they have to establish Kong as a beast but taking out an entire Air Cav unit like that was stupid.

Kong is 100 feet tall.  The UH-1 Iroquois has a service ceiling of 12,000 feet with a 1,200 foot/min climb rate.

Why the hell did the Air Cav unit feel the need to fight Kong at eye level?  

Also, military data puts M80 7.62×51 penetration at 60cm or 24 inches of tissue.   In a 100 foot ape, that would barely go through his skin.  It’s obvious that all the M60 fire was jut pissing Kong off. 

Was is anti military sentiment that made that scene so bad?  Couldn’t they strand the Air Cav unit some other way?  I just couldn’t get past how bad that part was. 

Iceland made it illegal to pay men more than women for the same work.

Forgetting that the Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963, Bernie Sanders Tweeted this.

Iceland just became the first country in the world to make it illegal to pay men more than women. In the United States in 2016, black women made 62.5 cents on the dollar compared to white men and hispanic women made 54.4 cents. That is a disgrace. pic.twitter.com/y2sxSWYVrm

To be fair, Bernie was only 22 at the time, so he might have missed that bit of news.

What he doesn’t say is the Icelandic law requires companies prove that their pay is equal or they are fined.

That’s just what we need in America Federal bureaucrats to audit business of more than 25 people and make them justify the salary or wages of all their employees and account quantitatively for any discrepancy.

It should be easy to come up with a standard so the different levels of education, quality of schooling, skill, etc., can all be accounted for in pay in a way that passes bureaucratic scrutiny.

I can only see this encouraging businesses to hire people and reward things like effort and performance.

I can’t see how that wouldn’t backfire at all. 

We should take all of our cues from a nation with the population about the size of our 57th largest city (Santa Ana, California, pop. 334,000) and that suffered total economic collapse not 10 years ago.

Maybe Sanders could convince Vermont to try it first.

So I had another one of my patented bad ideas today (if I don’t tell you guys, who can I tell).

I’d love to get a bunch of butt plugs and package them up with some instructions, in boxes marked “medical supplies” and ship them to Syria.

The instructions should say (in Arabic):

Rectal Tourniquet

In case of traumatic injury to the lower abdomen, insert rectal tourniquet into anus to prevent blood loss through the bowel.  

The only thing I can think of better than some ISIS terrorist dying a painful death from a gut shot are his buddies shoving a butt plug up his ass on the battlefield while he does it.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has undone an Obama policy protecting people in states with lax Marijuana laws from federal prosecution.

The Trump administration doesn’t like the idea of states violating federal law, apparently.

The Colorado Senate Democrats responded with this Tweet.

The marijuana industry supports hundreds of small businesses across our state.

Since legalization, marijuana has generated $617,767,334 in tax revenue. Instead of going to drug cartels, that money helps fund our schools and addiction treatment programs for more dangerous drugs.

That is really fucking rich coming from the same cocksuckers who drove Magpul out of Colorado at the height of the gun boom.

Like they give a shit about small businesses and taxes.

Support the Second Amendment? Fuck your company.

Sell pot in violation of federal law? Dems got your back.

I got linked from one site to an article in the Daily Kos.

When I got to the Daily Kos, I got hit with a popup.

Yes, that is a petition to get Trump banned from Twitter.

This is a news organization calling for the President of the United States to be banned from a site where he can express his opinion publicly.

I know Twitter is a private company and the First Amendment… private business… not limiting free speech… whatever.

This is an American news site wanting to ban the President from expressing himself on social media.

Again.

This is an American news site wanting to ban the President from expressing himself on social media.

One more time so it sinks in.

THIS IS AN AMERICAN FUCKING NEWS SITE WANTING TO BAN THE FUCKING PRESIDENT FROM SOCIAL FUCKING MEDIA.

This is the state of the media in America right now.

California has some of the highest energy costs in the country, not because they are short on electricity, but because by mandating that so much of it comes from expensive green technologies, it costs a lot to generate.

Consequently, the costs to business is enormous, which among other factors, is driving business out of the state.

Bill Nye has a solution to this.

If you live in a state like Texas, Florida, or Tennessee, where jobs are booming, California, New York, and Illinois are going impose sanctions on you like you are a foreign country, because state’s rights or something.

I’m not sure how this would be legal and all without an act of Congress.

Seeing as how this would be an act by an oppressive state to punish those who fled to or live in a free state, I’d like to suggest the name of this proposed law be The Fugitive Carbon Footprint Act.  It seems fitting.

Back in September I wrote a post about the evidence that the Left was going to try and normalize pedophilia, having won on gay rights and making headway on trans-rights.

Homosexuality has always been tied to pedophilia in the public conscious.  This goes back to ancient Greece where pederasty was a cultural norm.

In the modern era, until very recently, the gay community has tried so fight against this, saying that “gay men are not pedophiles, that is an ugly slur.”

Well, 2017 was a culture war dumpster fire, and 2018 is going to ignite the whole landfill.

Last year, Desmond Napoles, was nine years old.  He is a drag queen, and so was made the star of the NYC Pride Parade.

Let’s be honest, drag is overtly sexual.  It is gay Vaudeville.  The sexual nature of the stage-names and costuming is over-the-top, that is part of the entertainment factor.

It was done by a nine-year-old boy to the cheers and applause of the NYC LGBT community.

Desmond is now upping the ante by creating a Drag club for kids in NYC, and the LGBT community has a new hero.

Wow, how has the gay community pulled a 180.

1969-2016: “Gays are not pedophiles , of course you can trust gay men to be teachers, Scout Masters, etc.”

2017 – now: “Look at that 10 year old drag queen, dressing and dancing in an erotic fashion on a gay pride parade float.

The LGBT community REALLY needs to consider if they want to embrace the stigma of pedophilia instead of reject it.  A lot rides on this, such as the undoing of gay rights in America.

How accepting will middle America be of a gay teacher or coach who has selfies on Facebook of him with a prepubescent drag queen?

As for Desmond, I don’t know what his parents are getting out of this now form their progressive friends, but they need to ask themselves this question?

Is the notoriety in the NYC progressive community now worth Desmond’s overdose or suicide by the time he’s 21?  Because there is no way this is healthy for him.  Really, that needs to be asked by every parent who looks at a drag club for kids and says “forget Boy Scouts, that’s what Junior is doing after school.”
