The media may be wringing its hands over Boogaloo Boys in Hawaiian shirts.

But as General Curtis E. LeMay here proves, there is a long, proud history of taking out commies in Aloha wear.

From the NY Post:

City dwellers are finding out camping is gross

When Christina Ramos announced she was going camping for the first time this summer, her friends got worried.

“They thought I wasn’t going to make it,” said the 29-year-old New Jersey native, who was planning an outdoors-oriented trip to Michigan for her friend Paola’s 29th birthday.

Michigan, not the Amazon rainforest.  Michigan.

As the pandemic presses on, city dwellers are turning to camping as a safe, socially distant alternative to typical travel, with online booking tools Campspot, Tentrr and Hipcamp all reporting upticks in usage. But newbies are quickly discovering there’s a lot more to sleeping outside than s’mores and sing-alongs.

“They’re amazed by the amount of bugs that they see and the variety, and how big they can get,” said Rafael Lopez, who runs the NYC Hiking and Backpacking Group on Facebook.

His group’s membership has been increasing steadily, at about 15 people a day. But the reports from newcomers aren’t always positive: “The lack of bathrooms is what scares people,” said Lopez. “And when you do have a bathroom, it’s the surprise of how dirty they are.”

Oh fuck off.  Have any of these people used a bathroom in a New York subway terminal?

Have any of them ever ridden a subway.  This year was the first time in 115 years that NYC shut down the subway system to clean it.

Commuting to work twice a day in this is fine:

But a KOA bathroom is too dirty?

One decision she immediately regretted was failing to buy a sleeping pad: “It felt like I woke up and was hit by a bus,” she said.

Since then, she’s done overnights in the Catskills, Virginia and Connecticut. She has even chronicled some of her adventures for the Washington Post. But that doesn’t mean that she’s beyond the occasional mistake. There was the time she brought a portable charger that wasn’t actually charged, and the night she neglected to zip up her tent the whole way. When she woke up, she was soaked with rain.

“My sleeping bag was like a tea bag, dipped in a cup of tea,” Compton said.

Tell me more New Yorker about how well your secession and civil war over ACB replacing RBG is going to go.  You’ll all die of hypothermia if you can’t billet in an AirBNB between battles.

These are people who step over filthy vagrants and go to parks where the playgrounds are by weight more homeless peoples’ shit and hypodermic needles than sand.  But the American woods are gross.

Remind me how New Yorkers are so tough, I keep forgetting.

Initial thought is to happen at the  Manatee Gun and Archery Club in Myakka City, FL.  Time to be determined if enough folks are interested.  My guess is it will happen in a Saturday or Sunday.

I checked with Google Maps and it is a three and a half hour trip from Miami Dade so it is doable in a decent vehicle, just not my truck.  I don’t trust it farther than 10 miles away from the house.

I am going to talk to the missus and see if she is interested in going. For some reason, I don’t enjoy road trips without her at my side.  I might end up renting some fancy SUV and showing up in style.

You guys start thinking about it and remember, Florida has lifted effing COVID restrictions.

And that is not the only contradiction. You cannot be broke and be a billionaire at the same time, yet he writes it like it is not only a possibility, but a fact.

I knw we have been joking about Trump Derangement Syndrome, but I am staring to truly believe that hate does affect the brain as bad or worse than real head trauma.

What the hell is going to happen the night November 3rd? These people will not accept the re-election and they will lose their collective minds worse then when Hillary lost. Back then they had a heavy emotional investment, but this time around,, it is a fully mental investment in the win of Joe Biden. It will not matter if both popular and Electoral votes go Republican, they will simply will/can not be able to process the outcome.

Says the CNN anchor to Trump supporters who have been threatened by a mob, looted, beaten, shot, run over, murdered, doxxed, and otherwise made clear that they are not welcomed in polite society, and are hoping that the Supreme Court will restore their rights.

I’m just saying, this isn’t the threat that he thinks it is.

From FOX News:

California sheriff’s deputies say they didn’t know it was illegal to lie about evidence on police reports: report

Two former Orange County sheriff’s deputies told a California grand jury they did not know it was against the law to falsify police documents, an offense that led to their firing and conviction amid a widespread department “evidence scandal” that came to light last year, according to a local report.

Bryce Richmond Simpson, 31, and Joseph Anthony Atkinson Jr., 39, testified to a grand jury on Sept. 21 that they were never told it was illegal to write in police reports that they had submitted evidence when they actually had not, the Orange County Register recently reported, citing transcripts of their testimony. Deputies were typically expected to submit evidence by the end of their workdays.

They were allegedly two of at least 17 deputies investigated for potential charges for allegedly claiming in reports that they had booked evidence, as required, but failing to do so sometimes until months later, if at all, according to multiple reports.

Think about what happened next and all the potential convictions that will be challenged because people were convinced based on fabricated evidence.

I guess this was inevitable given that that cops are allowed to lie to you so why not be allowed to lie about you to the courts?

The LASD really covering themselves in integrity. An integrity bukkake.

We need cops, we’ve seen what happens in American cities that don’t have enough police.

But this shit is absolutely unacceptable and it needs to be punished hard all the way to the top.

This is came about another meme I posted in Facebook that went something about “Why libertarians hate AOC? Because she stole the acronym of their most important issue.” After that it was a couple of questions of what was AOC (Age of Consent) followed by the libertarians in my timeline explaining what really was the most important issued for Libertarians… about a dozen different ones. My buddy Brian then came up with the jewel above and I had to immortalize it in a meme.

This one I had never seen before and I have to say is right in the motherloving money.  But intellectuals love Revolutions only till the consequences land on their feet and they face the crap regular people have to deal with. After that, you will probably see them supporting the revolution from the comfort of the foreign country they ran to avoid the mess they helped create.
From what I found, it originates from the book “The Opium of Intellectuals” written by Raymond Aron originally published in 1955 and I can’t find a dead tree copy for a decent price.

Enough profound stuff for the day.
