The post “DeSantis did not shoot across the bow of Antifa/BLM, he dropped a tactical nuke.” has gone viral. AWA sent a note about the server’s behavior.
On the 21st of September, our pearless leader made a post that was picked up on facebook such that it got a little more visibility than normal. How much?
Yep, that is really a nearly 20 fold increase in visitors and hits on the website.
Once he noticed this he immediately contacted us to make sure we were prepared for the load.
The response? Huh? What load?
The site/server monitoring software did not notice any load change. It is still happily idling along.
Because of the higher visibility, we took a more careful look at the logs and found the normal used toilet paper (ass wipes). People that attempt to break into the system through brute force. We adjusted our filters and they just dropped away. Even without the filters, the system didn’t notice.
None of the dread 500 errors. No slow downs.
Happiness is a warm CPU.
I know, he is laying it thick with the “peerless” thing, but he is waiting for the check to go through 😀
All kidding aside, this has been the smoothest transition/migration the blog’s had and the sucker is also faster as hell.
Some people like Steven R. are still experiencing some issues and AWA has been taking care of it which is a reminder: if you are having problems, please let us know.
And once again, THANK YOU to all the donors that helped us get a much better home. Hell, it feels like a Coral Gables penthouse without the money laundering investigations.
And I have to remind you once again that f you need a site or move from the one you have, Troglodite LLC is AWA’s company and you can get the contact info over the column on your right.
Terrance Moses was watching protesters against police brutality march down his quiet residential street one recent evening when some in the group of a few hundred suddenly stopped and started yelling.
Mr. Moses was initially not sure what the protesters were upset about, but as he got closer, he saw it: His neighbors had an American flag on display.
“It went from a peaceful march, calling out the names, to all of a sudden, bang, ‘How dare you fly the American flag?’” said Mr. Moses, who is Black and runs a nonprofit group in the Portland, Ore., area. “They said take it down. They wouldn’t leave. They said they’re going to come back and burn the house down.”
Mr. Moses and others blocked the demonstrators and told them to leave.
“We don’t go around terrorizing folks to try and force them to do something they don’t want to do,” said Mr. Moses, whose nonprofit group provides support for local homeless people. “I’m a veteran. I’m for these liberties.”
Yes, a more confrontational approach.
Threatening to burn down a family’s house because they flew an American flag is more confrontational. That’s it, exactly.
The marches in Portland are increasingly moving to residential and largely white neighborhoods, where demonstrators with bullhorns shout for people to come “out of your house and into the street” and demonstrate their support.
These more aggressive protests target ordinary people going about their lives, especially those who decline to demonstrate allegiance to the cause.
We’ve seen those videos of people screaming into the face of people who just want to eat outside in peace.
But the tactics are dividing supporters of Black Lives Matter, with some worried that the confrontational approach will antagonize people who would be otherwise be receptive to the message, or play into conservatives’ critique of the protests, which have been largely nonviolent nationally.
In Portland, Jessie Burke, who is white and owns a coffee shop in the city, said the message of the movement was getting lost as the protests escalate and target ordinary residents in their homes.
“Everyone was looking for solutions at first, but now it’s just a nightly fight that has gotten progressively more violent — and every neighborhood worries that the fight will come to their neighborhood,” Mr. Burke said. “It’s: ‘Wake up, wake up, you need to be in the street protesting if you stand for this.’”
Lindsey E. Murphy agreed. She marched with the protesters through one of Portland’s wealthiest neighborhoods on a recent night and found it deeply moving. She watched white demonstrators shouting at white residents that Black lives matter — and the residents joining in with the chant.
“The crowd was — I won’t even say mostly white — I’ll say it was an almost exclusively white crowd marching through the whitest neighborhood in Portland shouting ‘Black lives matter’ and ‘Black lives are magic,’” said Ms. Murphy, who is Black and hosts an educational children’s YouTube series. “What I was witnessing was a lamenting prayer, a cry of remorse and shame among the white people. That’s what I saw. It was healing.”
No, it is a bunch of college Marxists who have attached themselves to a slogan that they believe is unimpeachable. They are using black lives as a cover for their naked Marxism.
“How dare you go against black lives matter? Are you a racist? Then you must believe black lives matter. That means accepting our principles straight out of the October Revolution.”
Mr. Green said that he opposed the destruction of property, but that he also understood it. And he believes, generally, that the more direct protest tactics in residential areas are working because they make the movement more personal, and reveal who truly supports change. If someone is against the movement, they keep their lights off or refuse to raise their fist, he said, adding that taking the debate into homes and to families is essential.
The movement is splintered in Portland between more mainstream Black Lives Matter marches and the more aggressive, sometimes chaotic antifa or black bloc protests, where demonstrators dress in black and wear motorcycle helmets or ski masks to make it difficult to identify — or later prosecute — them.
These people then went to terrorize an upper-middle class, predomnately White neighborhood called Alberta.
Neighbors in impressive Craftsman-style homes pulled down their shades and turned off their lights, though many could be seen peering out of dark windows. One woman stepped out of an expansive home looking angry; upon seeing the crowd, she quickly retreated indoors. A few young couples stood in their doorways. A Black woman driving past honked and cheered.
One white man stepped onto his patio clapping and hollering in support of the passing march. The group called for him to join. He smiled and waved them on, still clapping. They began to chant that he was spineless. He looked worried. But the march moved along, and he went back into his house.
“You’ll never sleep tight, we do this every night,” the protesters chanted.
You are either with the revolution or you are against it. Simply not wanting to march against your neighbors is a confession of disloyalty. Flying an American flag will get you targeted for abuse and arson.
The mob is militant, organized, and intimidating. They know that what they are doing is criminal and use tactics to make it harder to be held accountable.
The good news is that this assault on the middle class is backfiring, that bad news is that it is predicted that it will only cause more violence and aggression if the election doesn’t go the way the mob wants.
It must have been very hard for the New York Times to admit that Antifa are people terrorizing middle-class people in their homes because of radical positions, but that tells you just how bad the situation is that they couldn’t ignore it any longer.
Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has helped pay the outstanding fines and fees of 32,000 convicted felons in Florida so they could regain their right to vote ahead of the November election, according to a report.
The billionaire and former presidential candidate raised over $16 million for, and donated $5 million to, the Florida Rights Restoration Coalition, according to Axios.
Bloomberg’s push would benefit ex-cons as part of a 2018 state constitutional amendment allowing felons who have served their time to regain their right to vote.
Before they can regain that right, however, they need to pay any fines, fees or restitution.
How in the shit is this legal?
The purpose of paying a fine is punishment. You committed the crime, you pay the fine. Having someone else pay the fine on your behalf is like letting someone else sit in a jail cell while you walk free. I have a real problem with this.
If the fine is paid explicitly so that you can vote, does the person who paid the fine not feel entitled to tell you who to vote for?
How is this not buying votes? It clearly is, at least in an understood sense, so how is it legal?
Why is this fucker not currently being tea bagged in a Florida jail.
Now let’s see if that fuzz will let him stand up to some piece-of-shit meglomaniac New Yorke billionaire who sends his money to Florida to influence an election.
I really hope so because this is fucking bullshit and Bloomberg needs to spend some time at FSP.
Alyssa and her talent agent husband Dave Bugliari, 39, they said, had dialed 911 when they heard what they believed to be gunshots on their 1.39-acre property.
They allegedly told the emergency hotline the sound ‘scared their dogs’ and made them feel like the gunman was nearby.
A description was given of a suspect to the officers who was ‘male, 40-years old, with long rifle’.
You got that description? You know that had to be a White Supremacist Trumper after her and her family. SWAT team was out, choppers flying to save the enlightened Hollywood princess. And the culprit was found…more or less.
The search by air and street level lasted over three hours and ended abruptly at 12.20pm.
Alyssa and her husband Dave Bugliari were also concerned that it may be someone stalking the former Charmed and Who’s The Boss star
‘It turned out it was a neighborhood teen with an air gun shooting at squirrels,’ a resident told the DailyMail.com.
The male teenager witnessed the emergency response and later realized he was the cause and turned himself in.
From an adult in his 40s with a long rifle and ended up being a kid with a BB gun.
I know, it was the Wuhan V that made them see things, damned Trump! How come he did not do his duty and forbade the virus from entering the country? He needs to be impeached!
