The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost,
Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration,
politics without God, heaven without hell.
William Booth
“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.”
― William Saroyan
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of the blessings. The inherent blessing of socialism is the equal sharing of misery. -- Winston Churchill
Ignorance is not an opinion, liberals
I believe in Christianity as I believe the sun has risen; not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else. C. S. Lewis
if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

Black Lives Matter. It’s a strong and compelling slogan. It has the power to move people and demand change. It is a wonderful movement until you look under the covers and pay attention to the actions of its adherents. It is a Fascist organization. Nobody else is allowed to talk when BLM talks. No one else’s lives matter when BLM is on the scene.
When you peel the onion back to the center, you find something rotten and incompatible with a free society. Socialism and it’s ugly sibling, communism writhe in it’s ugly center. Over a hundred million corpses in the twentieth century show why socialism and its collective siblings have nothing to do with advancing the human condition.
It’s time to bring this train of violence and sedition to an abrupt halt. This is one of the times in our nation’s history when we must mobilize law enforcement and state military resources to stamp out this threat to our republic. Without government action, how will we counter the malevolent BLM threat?
It’s time.

No, not reversible. Correctible, but only by the black community itself, not the Black Lies Mafia.
It will be more or less rendered moot, tho, by the inevitable pendulum swing which will install a socialist Potus backed by a Marxist House and a Senate with a severe port list which will suffocate personal incentive and banish capital to other shores.
Our republic is in 4th stage seppuku, not primarily because of race but because people have learned that they can vote themselves entitlements and benefits they’ve done nothing to earn, mistaking charity for government duty and political correctness for common sense.
Hey, when half your population is completely dependent upon gubmint for its daily bread and genuinely believes that the Alzheimer’s poster boy would do a better job than Orangeman has done for 3 ½ years, your economic and political future is inextricably lodged in the rear end of a rancid yak.
Many of the younger blacks chimping out on city streets these days are just complying with the imperative from their thrill-seeking gene, the appeal of the roller-coaster, the adrenaline-junkie syndrome.
They’re dangerously ill from cabin fever and tired of wearing masks, and it’s a lot more fun to burn police cars and Mom & Pop businesses than to work 9 to 5 for less money than they get from Welfare and food stamps.
Besides, there are more self-hating, guilt-driven, virtue-signalling white women carrying BLM signs and blocking traffic than there are mature adult black people out there demonstrating what it’s like to be a premature brain donor.
It’s over, and we’re witnessing the death throes of the grand New-World Experiment designed and built by well-educated slave-owners in weskits and knee britches. The US is an athlete past his prime, living on past glories, looking for just one more shot at the title before succumbing to politico-sclerosis brought on by decades of self-indulgence.

When you actually have people on CNN telling black people that they may was well try to kill the cop that is stopping them because they are very likely going to die themself in the process of a traffic stop, it makes it hard to think it will ever get better.
Maybe if Sleepy Joe and the Fake black Ho get elected…..
Then as an aside to boco’s comment – My lunch pals know a couple, she works most of the day producing baked goods to sell, he drives a cement truck and also delivers bread to a number of McDonald’s in the tri-state area for a local bakery, working 18 hours a day most days and the two of them don’t make as much as a woman they know with 4 foster kids that she doesn’t take care of but rather sits around all day. She easily clears 50k a year tax free. You’d have to make around 80+ to equal that. How do you motivate people to get a life? Yet some do, and many blacks do appreciate the opportunity to work and some? many? are working under DJT than were when Barry and the Tranny were running things. According to reports.

BOB! Nice to have you here first! 🙂 You said “Without government action, how will we counter the malevolent BLM threat?” I hope that happens, though many think they’re setting Trump up to look like a dictator by fighting back hard…and, of course, if anyone was killed by the Nat’l Guard or anything, the media would twist it was our fault, wouldn’t it.
But, in a sane world, you are RIGHT!
I totally agree with your assessment of BLM, except that it’s a ‘wonderful organization’….they’re posing as that, and liberals like the idea of Black Lives Matter (as if they never did) but they have done harm to race relations.
Did you all see that the U-Haul which showed up in Louisville yesterday, which delivered equipment for the protesters, was rented by a woman who works for a Soros organization?
BOCOPRO, that’s the impression I get….I watch those awful kids and know THEY LOVE THIS…They’re feeling POWERFUL….they’re yelling at cops and it’s OK if they try to burn them in their offices or scream obscenities at them…Nobody will stop them. Nobody. They are LOVING IT. Disgusting….They’re suddenly ON TOP and THEY LIKE IT.
ED, I TOTALLY agree…that’s my sense of it…ARREST THEM LIKE THE THUGS AND PUNKS THEY ARE and SHOW THEM WHO’S BOSS>
HONESTLY>>> BLACK COPS, BLACK WHATEVERS….it would help.
AOW: I CLING to that thought often….I remember the Sixties, too, and I HOPE that if it got fixed then, we can fix it now. I just know it was more innocent, less money-supported, than BLM is today 😦
KID, exactly! CNN is GOADING THEM…………..Before the Louisville ‘riots’ got off to a big start….when they were managing to keep it calm, CNN was showing every slight altercation between BLM and Cops…and saying HOW BAD THIS IS, HOW CROWDS ARE PROTESTING and I’m thinking “YOu call THAT little altercation a PROTEST?” And it sure became one….CNN got their wish.
Yes, they’re encouraging it….and should be FIRED>
They ARE seditionists, as AOW says.

Law enforcement is an honorable profession, spoiled by the occasional individual who is psychologically ill-equipped to wear a badge/carry a firearm. I have no idea how police recruiting offices are able to enlist anyone with half a brain to serve in uniform, because not even their city councils are backing the police. Most police shootings (99%) are righteous. The way it has been, and should continue being, is that if you’re a thug and attract the attention of police, and if you’re one of those morons who wants to fight the police during a stop, then expect the situation to go rapidly downhill with every second of your “resisting arrest.”
As to the demographics for the year 2020 … 242 whites were involved in police shootings, compared to 123 blacks, 80 Hispanics, and 201 “unknowns.” In raw numbers, police do not target blacks, and police do not shoot more blacks than whites. If one wants to make the “percentage of overall population argument,” then one will have to consider the fact that while 13% of the U.S. population is black, they commit 27% of the nation’s felonies, some of which lead them into a policeman’s line of fire.
Blacks commit more than half of the nation’s murders/manslaughters, 54% of the nation’s robberies, 34% of all aggravated assaults, and 30% of vehicle thefts. Young blacks are being trained by their parent(s) to become national crime statistics. White society cannot fix the problem with black crime, mostly committed against other blacks; the problem can only be addressed within black communities by black leaders. Step one in doing this is to recognize and acknowledge that generally, black communities are a major fail in the story of American society. What we hear from the so-called black leaders is that it’s whitey’s fault, which is not only a damned lie, it also perpetuates the problem.

MUSTANG, by the way…I agree so much with what you said. Reading it again, it struck me how the City Councils aren’t backing the police and thinking it’s almost like a coordinated attempt of sedition and destruction.
I often can’t buy conspiracy theories because I can’t believe most people could keep the truth quiet….
I’m having trouble believing MOST docs and nurses in our country will lie on death certs and other places, having been told to write COVID so the hospital gets $$$ and scares the s*it out of our communities. But I believe that’s happening …
It’s hard to believe about City Councils…UNLESS…………..U N L E S S it’s due to the fact, as many of us AND TRUMP have said; They’re DEMOCRATS.
Years ago, I heard a little fish in our Central Valley in California, which grows most of the foods you all eat, was endangered and so they’d dislocated water (Mislocated is better said) so that poor little fish survived……most not wanting to believe that poor little fish thrived elsewhere, it would not become extinct………Meanwhile, there are signs up and down Highway 5, running North/South through my State…all through dying orchards and fields saying WE NEED WATER! BRING WATER BACK.
The report I watched was on Hannity, about 25 years ago and some Republican Councilman said “I can’t figure out WHY the San Fran City Council I’m on keeps doing all they CAN to shut California DOWN …this is just another way!”
WHY? WHY? WHY? THIS is what we must be asking and I BELIEVE this is what A G Barr and Trump and Pence,, DO KNOW and can’t say. YET.
BY the way, watching FOX’s Trump interview with (was it?) Levin the other night, I was thrilled to hear that McCarthy had told Trump about this fish, and TRUMP TURNED THE WATER BACK ON LAST MONTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOORRAHH!
I have heard NOT ONE WORD anywhere on the news.
I don’t watch California news but I have not heard it ANYWHERE I watch…And I think that’s very important for the whole country.

@ Z … you should realize that dismissing “conspiracy theories” out of hand, because they’re so whacky, is what the left wants you to think. Look, you’re NOT paranoid if someone is really trying to kill you. You’re NOT paranoid if others are trying to destroy the country you love. You have to know by now that Soros money has been regularly pouring into the coffers of communists running for political office, from the dim bulbs like AOC, Omar, and Sarsour, to people we’ve never heard of … city councilmen, city attorneys, county managers and prosecutors, judges, school superintendents, etc. Now, why would Soros do that? I hope the answer is self-evident. Believe me, you are NOT paranoid.
I recently left this comment at Adrienne’s … seems apropos here, as well. You decide …
For years, America sat on their couches watching TV as their sons and daughters went off to confront insurgencies in other lands, never imagining that such a thing could happen here. But they moaned about how long the war went on, in Southeast Asia and now in Afghanistan. No matter how many “commies” and “terrorists” our military killed, the insurgents kept coming back for more, and more. I was reading the other day that the Taliban, for example, never seem to know when they’ve had their asses kicked. One lance corporal opined, “…there are over 36 million Afghans and three times that of Pakistanis —half of whom are Taliban or other whackos. We simply can’t kill them all.”
So now we have insurgencies in our own back yard. We can clamp down (as we must), but what will it take to change that behavior? We can’t kill them all, and no one of the lunatic variety of politician any longer wants to lock them up in between fake pandemics. What’s the solution? No, we can’t kill them all, but those who are killed won’t be back for a second ass-whipping. Maybe that’s the message that will, one day, change the behavior of domestic terrorists. Maybe.

Apropos to mustangs point, After years in war zones Michael Yon has returned to the United States to cover the insurgency in progress. I don’t see how we can ever walk back emotional beliefs that have no basis in reality. I heard a woman whose adult daughter tried to get them to put a BLM sign in their front lawn. She graciously declined with an “all lives matter“ and the daughter just blew up. Screamed you’ll never set foot inside our house again, you’ll never see your granddaughter again. I thought the woman did not raise her girl that way. All that venom came from college. This was on Prager.
Other callers joined in with stories of adult children who are firmly convinced that the rioting and looting we saw on TV was the work of white supremacist provocateurs and inside agents. Firmly convinced the BLM movement is a peaceful effort Akin to the civil rights movement. One parent watched a video there’s son forwarded and was horrified by the ludicrous content.
I think it was Glenn Loury who addressed the issue of the EMT that was killed in a shootout with police. But I’m not sure. He went Into detail on the background there, one of five or six raids done simultaneously On a drug ring, and presented her as a victim of her poor decisions despite seeming efforts to rise above. The New York Times of all people spirited out the details on her story and it’s not what you would assume from the news.
