Off The Rails..Again
You might think today’s column will be about the protests that are happening around the country on college campuses. It’s not. I have written about that a few times before and judging by the lack of comments, most of my readers don’t agree with me. That’s ok, I like peoples opinions whether they agree or not.
There are very few talking points where i won’t listen to other opinions and digest them and maybe I will learn something and become a better person for it.
One of those points is Liberal BS about Democratic Socialism. I go blank when anyone starts talking about this because if I actually engaged, I would want to slap the shit out of anyone that believes that that is a good thing.
My next, your opinion sucks, idea ids the He/She/They/Them thing. Stop with this stupidity once and for all. You want to be Gay, God bless you. You feel the need to transition, that is your journey, best of luck. Your own personal choices are your own and I will always respect that. What I don’t respect is when someone wants to push some made up thing in my face and tell me it’s real. You are either a male or a female. period. Stop the presses. You want to identify as something other than that, you are an idiot and following the hottest trend in your little World. Your confusion is not my problem.
What gives these men and women the right to reinvent the English language? They is plural. They denotes more than one. As far as biology and the physical World is concerned, you are only one person. You cannot consider yourself a we or a they. End of discussion.
Lastly, and most important, I will never debate anyone ever about the importance of our police in this country. Two days ago the City of Charlotte lost two of their own and the US Marshall Service lost two men as well in a shootout with some animal who was wanted for a warrant that was out for him regarding possessing an illegal handgun.
The officers killed were: Sam Poloche and Alden Elliott from the North Carolina Department of Adult Corrections in conjunction with the US Marshalls Service and Charlotte Mecklenberg County officer Joshua Eyer and US Marshalls Service officer Thomas Weeks
I will not apologize for feeling that this country has got it’s priorities all screwed up. These four, brave public servants died doing what was expected of them, protecting and serving. Once again, the media made little mention of this incident. Sure it was covered but a 2 minute feed from a local reporter is really a disgrace. Obviously, local coverage has been outstanding and very respectful but as far as the National media, the lunacy on college campuses deserved more attention.
So far this year there have been 98 officers shot in this country, 10 of them dying from their wounds. 10 families destroyed and barely a mention. Yet, when a known drug abuser offender is killed by Minneapolis police, he is made a martyr. The President sends his condolences and they put up statues in his honor.
Yet, two weeks ago, another police officer was gunned down and you get not a peep out of the White House. President Biden was in New York at the time of his funeral and he didn’t have the guts to show up. Now, that might not have been his fault since rumor has it, the White House did call and ask but the family said “No Thanks” but I believe he had an obligation to say something publicly about this tragic loss of life. BTW, Former President Trump did show up and said a few words to the grieving widow. Political move or not, Trump did it and Biden ignored it.
I am going to go out on a limb here and say that I doubt that President Biden will address the tremendous loss of life in Charlotte. The President should go to Charlotte and give these heroes the respect they deserve. Hopefully, I will be wrong.
The priorities are just plain screwed up. martyrs are being made of people because of their skin color yet only the communities in which these heroes served will ever ackowledge the sacrifice they gave.
The National media should be ashamed that they have swung so far left that the vast majority of the country they report to doesn’t even bother watching anymore. The media blames the continued influence of the internet and the fact that people can get their news from dozens of sources as the reason for declining ratings. That might be true for a small amount of that loss but I think the bigger picture is that many Americans (Republican and Democrat) are tired of ultra biased reporting. Unbiased reporting is a thing of the past and the media in this country could care less.
Considering that in the first three months 10 law enforcement officers have been killed in the line of duty you would think that one of the major networks or CNN would do a “Special Report” and cover this story. Never happen, but you get one person of color killed by egregious police officers and there is a National Day of Mourning, fourteen “Special Reports” and coverage out the rear end. The resulting riots and destruction were covered with such sympathy you would think these criminals were also heroes as they looted and destroyed the very cities they lived in.
Which leads me into bringing back some sort of balance in this World.
Right now, New York and several other states are living with some Liberal fomented bail reform. Keep the minor infractions out of jail, free up the courts to process the felonies and lower the populations of our jail systems.
This is progressive liberal policies run amuck. I have no problem with trying to keep the petty out of jail but if you violate a law, you should have to post bail just to insure that you will show up for your trial. I am not saying a $50,000 bond for turnstyle jumping but there should be some way to ensure the people who violate the laws of a city or state should show up for their court appearance.
You don’t want to go through that hassle, don’t commit the crime. Laws are in place to protect society. Are some of them unfair? Less and less as society changes but most laws are in place for a very good reason.
The liberals have always felt that the jails were too crowded and most of them, unmanageable and that is probably true but people are in jail because they have committed a crime or allegedly committed a crime. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the crime.
I had a thought a while ago and it was pretty simple; get all the rich liberals who think bail reform is a good idea and have them put up money to be used once bail reform is rolled back. This pool of money can be drawn from by people who have been arrested and can’t post bail. You just have to return to court on your trial date and that fund will be reimbursed the bail money. It may not earn any interest but it would satisfy the liberals need to keep alleged criminals out of jail while awaiting their trial.
It is very simple. A pool of lets say five million dollars should be enough to cover those 500 and 1,000 dollar bail requests. The characters who are out on bail are now free to rob and fleece every CVS in Brooklyn. That’s what they are doing now with this bail reform and this will shut up all of the conservatives who want bail reform ended.
You know why it’s never even been proposed? Because every liberal in NY, Chicago or LA values their money more than they value their opinions. They would lose their shirts because, I will venture to guess, the vast majority of these people will never show up for trial and they will lose the money they put in.
Another Liberal failure for sure.
Obviously I have digressed again but I think it’s pretty clear that I believe that we need to go back to a time when law enforcement was respected and laws were respected. It wasn’t perfect but over time as people start to respect the law again, the chances of four officers getting killed in a hail of gunfire from one animal piece of trash would be diminished.
