Absurdly Pathetic
With Western Civilization under attack and facing the most serious threat to its existence in centuries our lame excuse for a leader of the free world spends his time prattling about making community colleges cost free.

Delicious Truthful Tidit
"Liberals, [the author] notes, whether professors or public-sector workers, need 'victims' at home and abroad the way an 'addict needs drugs.' But this alliance leaves out crucial cogs in the coalition, such as the youthful 'dumbest generation,' whose primary political aim is to think well of themselves. Public-sector unions and their expert allies appeal to the semi-educated, New Yorker-reading upper middle class, who want to delegate all social responsibility to the state so that they can devote themselves to a life of advanced pleasures."

Irrefutable Wisdom Elegantly Stated
Ideas are more powerful than guns.
We would not let our political
opponents have guns.
opponents have guns.
Why should we let them
have ideas?
. . . Joseph Stalin (articulating
the "Youmaynot Philosophy!")
Australia this time!
Most of this day, I've listened to hand-wringing commentators on many networks, including Fox News, agonizing about how to prevent lethal attacks on citizens in Western countries by Islamic terrorists.
"Lone Wolf" is the "term du jour," but the next attack may be more organized, along the Mumbai Massacre model, and we'll be back to talking about that convention.
No corespondent was able to offer any concrete solution, save outright banning of Islamics from our shores!
We have observed over the past few decades that neither Jewish Zionists, nor Christian Crusaders, nor Norwegian folk-dancers for that matter, have presented a terrorist problem. The problem is always Islamics. Islamics are terrorists, and have been for the past 1,500 years!
We can, immersed in PC, dance around that fact, ad-nauseam, but it is something we all plainly see.
The only legitimate answer to these unprovoked and mostly unpredictable terrorist attacks ("lone-wolf" or otherwise) on innocent citizens in Western countries, is privately-armed, private citizens! Of course, that is the only solution, the mere mention of which, is absolutely banned from the lips of all media commentators and "officials" alike. It is prohibited from even being acknowledged, much less publically discussed, in any fair and enlightened forum!
The open discussion of armed teachers in public schools was also "subject non-grata," for years. Some of my courageous colleagues, Mas Ayoob for one, were viciously censured for even suggesting that the subject be talked about in anything but whispers! The concept is only now seeing the light of day! Curiously, it has worked splendidly everywhere it has been tried, but the very idea of such a high degree of personal freedom predictably upsets control-freaks ("Youmaynots"), both elected and appointed.
Two days ago, the Lindt Cafe in Sidney was filled with unarmed
IguessIcan'ts, all of whom were obediently following the dictates of Youmaynots in Parliament (who themselves duplicitously enjoy continuous personal protection provided by heavily-armed bodyguards), and thus submissively left the important matter of self-protection against Jihadi madmen exclusively to "the police." They were unwittingly betting their lives on that personal decision.
Several lost that bet!
Sadly, no Icans were present. A single audacious, armed citizen could have stopped this violent attack in its tracks, and, in so doing, discouraged others
Disarmed and helpless IguessIcant's, who religiously obeyed wide-reaching gun bans enacted by Youmaynots, were, once again, pitilessly murdered and maimed during this incident. As a result, future massacres are, even now, being entertained.
Politicians have expressed "deep personal concern." They always do. I'm sure that represents a prodigious source of comfort to families of the murdered!
Every "collectivist reform," without fail, peremptorily supplants its purported goal of everlasting utopia with a sinister, but familiar, feudal system of "masters-and-slaves," wherein owners remain few, and the masses are forced to accept "security" at the expense of perpetual servitude. And, of course, Youmaynots are ever fearful of armed slaves!
Curiously, modern firearms, which Youmaynots piously purport to hate, are actually protecting them every moment! Those particular guns are apparently okay. It's only privately-owned guns, that protect you, that they don't like. Although you may not view yourself as a slave, they do!
One might even accuse those particular Youmaynots of being Exceptformes!
The Roman Republic fell, not because of the ambition of Caesar, but because it had already long ceased to be a republic at all. When the sturdy Roman Plebeian, who lived by his own labor, who voted without reward according to his own convictions, and who formed in war the terrible Roman Legion had been changed into an idle creature who craved nothing in life save the gratification of a thirst for vapid excitement, who was fed by the state, and who sold his vote to the highest bidder, then the end of the Republic was at hand, and nothing could save it.

Crass but Accurate Assessment of the USA's Current Leaders
To put it bluntly (as well as with crass honesty) the guy Americans have got in the oval office is a lying sack of shit.
The same could be said of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid but they can justifiably claim diminished capacity.
And the senator who ruled out impeaching the prez by saying “I’ve met Joe Biden” hit the nail on the head. The VP is just a nut case.
As for Eric Holder, he plainly and simply is a felon who to date repeatedly has escaped being indicted through political pull . . . and he has transformed the Department of Justice into a criminal enterprise.
Other than the foregoing, everything in the good old USA is going just swimmingly.

Thoughts About the Rioters
The perpetually aggrieved currently have their knickers in a collective bunch again. This time over the decision of a Missouri grand jury to follow the law instead of sacrificing a police officer to mob rule . . . and they of course are exhibiting their displeasure by rioting and looting.
The officer whose head they (and our faux president and his felonious attorney general) have been demanding put down a guy that the media persists in describing as "an unarmed black teenager." Nowhere do they mention the young thug's criminal history and proclivities, that he clearly was attacking the officer, or that the punk was a huge, hulking, and aggressive menace.
We once were wise enough to deal with and end riots quickly with effective force.
Now, according to our faux president and his official enforcer, we are supposed to exercise restraint. Never mind that going easy on mobs prolongs riots and encourages and results in more of them — more deaths, more injuries, and more property losses (especially at this time of year when the rioters go out carrying their holiday looting lists).
I, for one, would go back to the old practice and shoot rioters down in the streets like the mad dogs they are. Alternatively, we could just encircle and confine them in and to their own turf, letting them kill and maim each other and burn and destroy everything in sight in their limited home areas. And I wouldn’t lift a finger or expend a cent on any restorative efforts.

Over-theTop Political Correctness
The chancellor of the University of California in Berkeley (purportedly one of America's preeminent institutions of higher learning) recently proclaimed support of free speech . . . provided, he added, that it didn't offend or disturb anyone.
Lest you think the politically correct statist proviso, which underlies and is used as to justify speech codes and other forms of censorship, is over-the-top, take a look here at what is getting consideration at the Federal Communications Commission.

Statists' Exit Blocking Impulse
With productive citizens and businesses leaving America in record numbers, the authoritarian currently running the U.S. -- those whose actions have motivated the departures -- now are looking frantically for ways block the exits.
They are pursuing the enactment of legal barriers to make it financially impractical for business enterprises to relocate their headquarters and domiciles outside the country. Many such barriers already are in place for individuals.
Blocking the exits to confine inhabitants apparently is easier and preferable to restoring the environment and culture in which emigrants and potential emigrants used to, and again could live and thrive happily and comfortably.
The exit blocking impulse appears to come naturally to statists like those who not long ago erected and maintained the Berlin Wall.
Underlying the impulse is a mindset . . . the mindset of slavers and slaveholders . . . in which inhabitants are not free citizens entitled to live where and how they wish but resources (a.k.a. slaves) to be exploited.

Fair's Fair on Racial Investigations
The U.S. Department of JustUs, under and at the direction of the hustling race-card playing A.G. Eric Holder, is embarking on an investigation of the racial policies and practices of the Ferguson, Missouri, police department.
Fair enough . . . although it appears that the results of the 'investigation" have been predetermined by the dishonorable Mr. Holder.
But if for no other reason than to present a comprehensive appearance of even-handed fairness, we also ought to have a simultaneous investigation of the racial polices and practices of Mr. Holder's department . . . and have it done by a competent and truly independent counsel.

Peacetime Defined
Peacetime: One of those brief periods in history when everyone stops shooting to rest up and reload.
Miracle Worker Exposed by Reality
For a further dose of reality, view and think about the following post.
Fantasies and Illusions of a Peaceful World
The following is from John S. Farnam, a veteran combat officer who is one of America's foremost defensive shooting and personal security instructors, s longtime law enforcement officer, and frequently an expert court witness on use of force issues:
War, from now on!
"Don't worry, be happy..."
. . . From the song of the same title,
recorded by Bobby McFerrin in 1988
Enough contemporary fantasy! Now let's listen to James Madison:
"'Universal peace.' It is to be feared! It is in the catalogue of events which will never exist, except in the imaginations of visionary philosophers, or the breasts of benevolent enthusiasts."
Today, we call naive visionary philosophers and benevolent enthusiasts "liberals"
I wonder how much support he would have garnered, if FDR had referred to Imperial Japan of 1941 as "radical Japanese extremists," and, in the wake of their sneak-attack on Pearl Harbor, weakly, hesitatingly indicated that his only real goal was to trim back Imperial Japan to a "manageable problem!"
Even sleazy leftist, David Cameron in the UK, has the courage to call for the absolute destruction of ISIS. No "management" for him!
Three-hundred more American "advisors" are now being feebly re-sent to Iraq, after being prematurely withdrawn. All this, despite repeated
dishonest promises of "no boots on the ground." I'm sure they're all wearing wingtips!
Over here, BHO, surrounded by a gaggle of aging frat-boys, none of whom have ever had a real job, and who have no concept of military operations,
appears confused, disinterested, and wants only for the American public to ignore the disintegrating foreign situation, so they can concentrate on his liberal domestic agenda, which, of course, has failed at every turn. But,
for overconfident liberals, unwavering loyalty to leftist dogma is always more important than actual outcomes.
Nonetheless, we're continuously assured that soon we'll all be living in a liberal paradise, where no one ever does any work and only Democrats get
elected. Unfortunately, few of us will be living at all, and the New Dark Age will be anything but a "paradise."
Still, such drivel is music to the naive ears of the forty percent of our "work force" that does no work, that is permanently, willfully unemployed,
indeed unemployable, and has been for generations. Eking out a living on an endless buffet of government handouts designed to keep them perpetually unproductive, their sole function in life is to vote for Democrats.
That is the liberal "legacy" we've inherited.
"Nothing is so permanent as a 'temporary' government program." . . . Milton Friedman
Meanwhile, the rest of the civilized world is disintegrating at a frightening pace. Pitiable islands of Western Civilization are being snuffed-out one by one. We, and what is left of the rest of Western Civilization, will shortly be presented with the unsavory "choice" of living under Putin's Communists, or ISIS' Islamic "purity." Curiously, neither entity (nor BHO himself) likes our Second Amendment, not yet completely destroyed by liberals (through no fault of their own). I'm sure that comes as a big surprise!
In this world, civilizations come and go. Ours is teetering!
"You may leave here for four days in space. But, when you return, it's the same old place!" . . . From "Eve of Destruction," protest

A Problem With the Donkey
A
preacher wanted to raise money for his church and on being told that there was
a fortune in horse racing, decided to purchase a horse and enter it in the
races. However, at the local auction, the going price for horses was so high
that he ended up buying a donkey instead. He figured that since he had it, he
might as well go ahead and enter it in the races. To his surprise, the donkey
came in third!
The next
day the local paper carried this headline: PREACHER’S ASS SHOWS.
The
preacher was so pleased with the donkey that he entered it in the race again,
and this time it won. The paper read: PREACHER’S ASS OUT IN FRONT.
The
Bishop was so upset with this kind of publicity that he ordered the preacher
not to enter the donkey in another race. The paper headline read: BISHOP
SCRATCHES PREACHER’S ASS.
This was
too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the preacher to get rid of the donkey.
The preacher decided to give it to a nun in a nearby convent. The paper
headline the next day read: NUN HAS BEST ASS IN TOWN.
The
Bishop fainted in shock. When he came to he informed the nun that she would
have to get rid of the donkey, so she sold it to a farmer for $10.00.
The next
day the headline read: NUN SELLS ASS FOR $10.00.
This was
too much for the Bishop, so he ordered the nun to buy back the donkey, lead it
to the plains, and let it go.
Next day,
the headline in the paper read: NUN ANNOUNCES HER ASS IS WILD AND FREE.
The Bishop
was buried the next day.
