And suddenly there are no riots in the Country for a second night in a row.

Try find one.  With the exception of a small tussle with a dozen idiots in a corner of Normandy Avenue  L.A (I know that sounds familiar to some of you) that lasted as much as a fart in a hurricane,  all demonstrations last couple of nights have been sans-violence and even providing an ASL translator in Rochester.

Interesting, huh?

No trick-or-treating, no parties, no carnivals and no festivals. In light of the ongoing pandemic, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health has issued new guidelines for Halloween https://t.co/s0ofnCwsYT

Instead of trick-or-treating, we just have masked youths loot candy from thier neighbors on October 31st.

Seems like a pretty easy way around that ban given California’s support of looters and rioters.

J. Kb. just sent me this, stolen from C&H Precision Weapons:

For those who do not about IDPA and their targets, here is a simple explanation: Some times in courses of fire, you will see targets with different weapons painted in black. The reason is a weapon and distance will change the priority of shooting. IE: If you are facing three targets, one with a gun, one with a knife (or skateboard) and one with nothing, the target with the gun gets the first dose because it can “harm” you from  afar. Next would come knife and impact weapon because they have to get close to you first and lastly unarmed target.

PS: Anything painted in black over the target is considered hard cover. An impact on that area does not count.  From the pasters and assuming there were only 2 shots per shooter, almost 2 dozen people shot  with enough care to make sure the skateboard did not “top” a round.

Good shooting, Tex!

From U of M – Dearborn. The Non-POC Cafe or the “White Cafe.” Anyway, I wonder what the menu looks like for the Non-POC Cafe at UM-Dearborn. If they have chocolate hummus I am calling for a boycott. pic.twitter.com/8ZegRv7zet

Update! Seems like @UM_Dearborn has two cafes. Competing cafes. I get the intention but this was not thought out and very lazy. pic.twitter.com/BqTFy8rXN6

Segregation forever…

First of all, thank you to all who have donated so far. Not only we are humbled by your friendship, but it makes us feel good that we can also share the good fortune of your friendship with a reader who was willing to help us get the site right.

So AWA (Anonymous Webhost Angel) is finding out how much of an annoyance I can be, specially since I am entering the age bracket of “Old Fartening” and my usual reply to him is “This shit is too damned complicated, why should I deal with it? Where is my Ensure?” Kidding aside, he is doing a great job of explaining what is happening step by step and not just migrating but improving the site so you can have a better experience. And he said that barring act of SMOD, we won’t be seeing the infernal 500 Internal Server Error anymore.

So maybe by the end of the week you will see and feel the migration being finalized. I will try to give you guys a warning and hopefully sometime next week (and if HostGator stops screwing and slowing shit around) you will be treated to a new site that will look the same as the one you are reading now, but faster and almost trouble-free.

And yes, you can still donate a few drachmas if you haven’t donde so. You will see the appropriate button and email on the right. column of the page.

And at the risk of sounding annoying, thank you guys and Ladies for being a part of this blog and supporting our efforts.

From The Hill:

9 in 10 voters say civil unrest a key issue in presidential race: poll

The vast majority of voters in a new Harvard CAPS-Harris poll released exclusively to The Hill say they believe civil unrest will be an important issue in the November election.

More than 9 in 10 voters surveyed in the poll, 92 percent, said they thought the issue would be important in the presidential campaign and election, including 52 percent who called it “very important” and 40 percent who viewed it as “somewhat important.” The survey was released Friday.

From Politico:

Why Biden could still lose the suburbs to Trump

Interviews with more than two dozen Democratic Party officials and strategists in the suburbs reflect confidence in Biden’s ability to compete with Trump on issues surrounding this summer’s civil unrest, but also widespread concerns about the political volatility — and potential allure — of the president’s law-and-order message.

In an effort to draw those voters back to him, Trump seized on images of looting and violence in Minneapolis and Portland following the death of George Floyd and, most recently, in Kenosha after the police shooting of Jacob Blake. Trump blamed the unrest on permissive Democrats and warned a Biden administration would leave suburban America in ruins.

One of the strategists described a focus group in which white, college-educated women reacted to the protests by discussing their own property values and, in one woman’s case, her family’s mortgage.

“White women who have college degrees are starting to really get sick of this,” the strategist said.

Who can forget this from Rochester:

Rochester, N.Y.: #BLM rioters swarm a restaurant and knock over the dining tables. https://t.co/lxa0b5hHeh

In Portland, Antifa went into people back yards.

As police dispersed antifa rioters in SE Portland, they ran onto people’s property to hide from cops. One home owner goes out and tells them to get out. #PortlandRiots #antifa https://t.co/qMi4KyGGYi

The New York Post reports that BLM protesters did over $100,000 in damage in Manhattan.

Suburban white people want to be able to go to restaurants, have security in their own homes.  That is part of the suburban lifestyle.   That’s why they move out of the cities into the suburbs.  These people want nice, quiet lives.  They worry about things like property value because suburbanites want to buy homes and not live in rented apartments all their life.

Biden and Harris have sided with the rioters.  Harris and Biden have stumped for a fund to provide bail money to the rioters who were arrested.

Suburbia won’t want to vote for a candidate that threatens their quiet suburban lifestyle and property values.  They don’t want to get mobbed going to the local restaurant or find their local stores looted and boarded up.

This isn’t a shock to anyone who is familiar with the suburbs, which apparently doesn’t include the people in the media.  We choose to live there because we don’t want to deal with the noise and violence of the cities.  Don’t bring that bullshit to our neighborhoods.
