Why I went off the deep end
Miguel had to tone me down a little bit.
His blog, his rules, no hard feelings, and I’m sorry to him that I put him in that position.
If it seems like I went off the deep end, I probably did, but it’s not without good cause.
What I am witnessing unfold before us is the worst combination of two of the worst defining moments in 20th Century history.
Like Maya Angelou said: “when someone shows you who they are, believe them.”
So when voices in BLM say “kill all white people,” I believe them.
When Antifa says “kill all cops” and “kill the gentrifiers,” I believe them.
What I am hearing is reminiscent if not verbatim of what Hitler said about the Jews and Lenin said about the Kulaks. Only replace “Jews” with “white people” and “Kulaks” with “gentrifiers.”
Watching the news is like a mirror back into time, watching Hitler and his Brownshirts in 1932 or Lenin and his Cheka in 1916. Just before they came to power. When it was rhetoric and thug violence.
At the time nobody thought that two of the great powers of Europe could fall, but weakened by war, social unrest, a bad economy, and a pandemic, they did and were replaced by National Socialism in Germany and Soviet Communism in Russia.
That’s where we are today.
War in Iraq and Afghanistan sapping our resources, social unrest, a bad economy, and a pandemic, with Socialists, Marxists, and Communists engaging in thug violence in our streets.
What happens if they win? I’ve seen this before.
As a straight, white, Republican, Jewish, man, making North of $100K per year, me and my family will not survive.
Knowing the history of the 20th Century, I do not want to see the first cattle car full of gentrifiers hauled off to a concentration camp, the first crematorium turned on to dispose of the bodies of police, or the first slave labor camp full of Trump voters worked to death in the blazing desert sun to create a Green New Deal solar farm of bones.
That is what is coming if they win.
Remember, most Germans were not Nazis and most Russians were not card carrying members of the Communist Party, but a powerful and violent minority managed to control the country and cause the deaths of millions.
So if I’ve gone off the deep and its only because I know where this is going and I rather nip it in the bud.
Andrew Branca: Aggravated Assault with a Firearm upon the police officers (Kenosha)
The more you know. The shooting of Jakob Blake.
We know the term furtive movement:
And IMHO we have that by the ton in this case. Actually the officers show proper restrain and contrary to some of the narratives, they did just not shot a black man getting in his car.
Here is the video again:
And here is a frame by frame collage of what happened:
Sorry, but the movements do not coincide with those of a person trying to get get seated inside his vehicle to drive away, but somebody trying to reach for something, more than likely a gun. And as Andrew Branca explains above, that a weapon was found or not, is irrelevant.
Jakob Blake made a decision that was deadly flawed. Whatever made him decide this was the proper way to go, made him end up in the hospital and the city of Kenosha be subject to riots, theft, vandalism and arson.
And just like George Floyd, we have another felon on his way to become a cause celebre victim by the Media and the politicians.
It is Monday somewhere.
“Smith, why are you late?”
“Sorry boss, pigs closed the highway.”
“Smith, we do not use terms like that regarding Law Enforcement.”
“Boss, I mean real pigs. Oinkers running all over the place.”
“Son, why don’t you drop by HR now and have them fix you for a Pee In The Cup appointment?”
Why you need an AR-15 and some XM193
Portland Antifa is upping the ante.

Once more for the Memory Hole:
Antifa is equipping themselves with body armor. Real bulletproof vest.
Those look like soft armor, but AR500 plate armor has become so cheap and widely available it wouldn’t take much to upgrade those vests.
Your handgun will not punch through that.
Some XM193 will.
Some M61 7.62×51 AP would also be useful too.
When Antifa feels like it needs body armor and ballistic helmets to do what they want to do, you know it is going to be bad.
This is an enemy preparing for war. Do not underestimate them.
At this point, if I could start legally stockpiling explosives I would.
I wonder if Ish can smell the burning plastic?
More Antifa attacks on residential communities.

Understand why they burn something like a mattress. Burning plastic like this smells horrible and releases toxic chemicals. This isn’t just about setting a fire. This is smoking out a neighborhood.
It is a siege tactic as old as there have been sieges.
In ancient times, enemy invaders would burn dead rotting animals upwind of a fortification because the horrible smell would demoralize defending troops.
Combatants in the Middle East would burn tires upwind of American fortifications to sicken American troops. Inhaling burning rubber and plastic is harmful.
Shield walls, catapults full of sickening material, and smoking out people in their homes. Antifa has adopted the tactics of a medieval conquering army trying to take a fortification.
These people are literally under siege.
“Stop using the color of my skin as an excuse to tear up my city.”
Murphy Robinson, executive director of public safety has a few choice words to say about the “peaceful protesters” that graced Denver with their presence.
“I want to be clear, what we experienced last night was not a protest. It was anarchy,” said Murphy Robinson, executive director of public safety. “The people that showed up last night — the anarchists that showed up last night — brought weapons to the table. They had guns, they brought explosives, axes, machetes and had one intent purpose and that was to harm our officers that were there to serve in the line of duty to protect our city.”
…
“The narrative that these anarchists are marching for justice of Black lives is frankly false,” said Robinson, who is Black. “The public needs to know that you do not represent us. Stop using the color of my skin as an excuse to tear up my city.”
Police: 12 arrested, 1 officer hurt during riot in Denver
Let’s see if he means what he said or it is just pretty words to calm the populace. Ihave the feeling that Antifa will come back, heads will be busted and the usual suspects will appear condemning the cops for their brutality and defend the Black Block’s First Amendment Right to Burn Loot and Murder
