Pride has caused me to reconsider what Freedom of Religion means

Jun 19, 2021 J. Kb 2 comments

I cannot tell you just how much I hate the saturation of the public sphere with Pride Flags in June.

It has nothing to do with gay people, themselves.  I’ve said it before, I don’t really care what two consenting adults want to do in private.

To me, it has become a First Amendment violation.

Yesterday I posted this:

The reason he is being charged with a felony is that it is a felony to deface a memorial in Florida.  The question is: is a temporary paint job to a city street a memorial?

I think it’s dubious as best and I hope his lawyer fights that.

Rember this post from earlier?

Cities in America are bending over backwards for Pride Month painting crosswalks and cop cars with Pride Flags.  US Embassies are allowed to fly Pride Flags under Biden, reversing the Trump decision to ban them.

About 4% of the population identifies as LGBT, so why so much emphasis on it?  Because it has become a secular religion.  Pride as a secular Leftist religion is being forced on the public with taxpayer dollars in violation of the First Amendment.

There are a lot more people in America who identify as Christan than identity as LGBT.  Imagine the outrage if the Ecumenical Flag was painted on crosswalks for Lent or if crosswalks were painted green and red for Christmas?

Can you imagine a patrol car with a Crucifix or Virgin Mary for Easter?

But because what the Left fervently believes in is a religion without a god, they can proselytize all they want with taxpayer dollars on public property.

We need a revisiting of the First Amendment and the separation of church and state.  It needs to acknowledge secular ideologies as tantamount to religions.

We also need to establish that in today’s world, all identities are tantamount.  The Left has totally destroyed the separation of mutable and immutable identity.  You can no longer make the argument “well you’re born gay but Christain is just a belief” because if you can identify as the opposite gender or no gender, then your identity is exactly what you say it is and therefore all identities are equal.

Essentially what I want to establish is that legally a religion and an identity are the same thing.

The separation of church and state should be a separation of identity and state.  The state doesn’t get to favor any expression of identity over any other any more than favor any religion over any other.

Either Jews and Christians get holy cop cars and crosswalks for our high holidays or they acknowledge that Pride is tantamount to a religion and no more public Pride displays.

But to tell people who identify as Christian that if they want to hang up their displays in public they can fuck off because the First Amendment says so, but anyone who wants to celebrate Pride gets public funds to paint their flags on every square inch of public space picks one identity over another and is a First Amendment violation.

Now, all we need is a Conservative civil rights group with funding to start suing municipalities based on this logic.

The world has changed so much

So yes, I am doing the old fart waving a fist in anger…OK, not so much anger as simply amazed at how things are out there and not always smart or an indication of progress.

I have not had a sinus attack in ages which is weird when you realize I live in hot humid Florida and next to a lake to boot.  It was an old school brain splitter, so I knew the usual meds found at the 7-11 check out counter next to the cookies and the condoms would not do squat.

I have heard that the good stuff requires to have it picked up at the Pharmacy counter, but I had never experienced that particular Federal regulation joy before. And to add to the pleasure, the Pharmacy had experience some sort of computer glitch and there was some issue with the prescriptions which led to long frigging lines.

While waiting and bored out of my school, I saw a couple of things that made me shake my head heard. First, that some people actually need these products:

I guess the level of trust among humans living under the same roof or related to each other is rather low. Face it, if you are doing drugs, you do not need a test to know, so its application is to find out if somebody else is an addict or user, something happened that made the inherent trust disappear. I guess the Nicotine test is to see if a kid is vaping because plain smoking is rather obvious and easy to detect.

And this one is a monument to gullibility.

I saw this and thought “Well, I have thickened the occasional sauce and I know you make gravy thick by adding flour or cornstarch.”

Guess.

Yup, Cornstarch.

I had to check with Walmart:

 

The top is $0.66 per ounce and the Wally world is $0.07 per ounce. Nine times higher at the pharmacy because it is packaged and sold differently. I don’t think heroine or coke have the big of a mark up.

OK, old fart rant mode is off.

Asian Americans shopkeepers are attacked by “White Supremacist.”

But they fight back.  Amazing how behavior changes when your target suddenly identifies himself as gun owner.

And no, I have no problem with the fact that she was a female being “re-educated” by two males.  You pay your monies and you take your chances and the possession of a vagina should not be a shield against self-inflicted stupidity.

The current state if our justice system is an abomination

Jun 18, 2021 J. Kb 8 comments

This man was charged with a felony:

 

The truck driver who didn’t hit anyone as he drove through a BLM protest that was blocking a highway was sentenced to probation.

The protesters that beat him were not charged.

We are fully in a hyper-partisan justice system where one side can beat people and not get charged and the others can cause no harm but are punished for disrespecting a political movement.

The point of a war college is to teach war

The point of a war college is to teach war.

This is instruction on who they think enemy is.

What conclusion do you come to as to who they think the enemy is?

More than half of in-hospital deaths from COVID-19 among Black, Hispanic patients, study finds
Researchers found that Black and Hispanic people made up 58% of all patients hospitalized for COVID-19 and 53% of those who died from the disease.

It’s almost like they are less interested in combatting COVID than they are using COVID to justify their political and racial prudices.
