Post BREXIT, stocks post best in 2016 - Globalization is modern Colonialism

Image
Wait, I thought BREXIT was suppose to be apocalyptic? Seems not, well, at least not for the rich people that wish to continue getting rich. Don't get confused, this has little if any impact over the long-haul on anyone's retirement (or 99% of humanity). What this type of action effects is rich people. Now, I don't hate rich people, they create a lot of the jobs, fund a lot of the research -they're overall a good thing. But this whole "whoa don't do it world" was only because the richies didn't want to have to learn a new way of making money. Post 2008 they were already rolled, having to shut down their banks that existed for centuries was quite a shocker. Now, as time has shown, BREXIT didn't have nearly the impact they pretended it would. This is modern day colonialism and empire building, but its done overtly through finance -- where as in the past, they at least attempted to cloak that with patriotism and Gods. The modern day colony is one m...

Trazan isn't offensive, no matter what CNN says.

Image
I wonder if the reason most new movies are either reboots or horrible is the result of Hollywood (or some in it) being so damn worried about offending someone, they don't write a screenplay - or produce it. Tarzan was a fictional character written about in 1912 (yes, over 100 years ago) - written by Edgar Burroughs who was born 10 years after the US Civil War. He was born in Chicago and his father was a Civil War vet. Other things happening the year this came out: New Mexico became the 47th State The Republic of China Titanic departs on its maiden voyage The First Eagle Scout Woodrow Wilson is elected President Eva Braun is born Bram Stoker died Tarzan, the story...goes something like this: Tarzan is the son of a British lord and lady who were marooned on the Atlantic coast of Africa by mutineers. When Tarzan was only an infant, his mother died, and his father was killed by Kerchak, leader of the ape tribe by whom Tarzan was adopted......... It isn't racist, it...

28th Amendment, a woman's right to kill a baby?

Image
Today SCOTUS decided that abortion was a woman's right, again, this has been a standing position for nearly 60 years so this isn't a shocker. However, something that is is the use of the word 'right'. It isn't a right. I think sane minds can agree that if a woman's life is in immediate danger, or a rape/incest occurred resulting in pregnancy, that these are adequate reasons to have an abortion. In in many eyes, the only reasons. It isn't a matter of choice, there is a human life in the balance. We live in a Country in which we are compassionate in killing a human baby, but not the rapist that caused the baby - we'd rather put him in prison for life, but not take his. Perhaps if a woman had to name the baby and fill out a death certificate it would make people think twice. My position isn't a religious one, it is one based on sanity and what murder is. In case you aren't aware, abortions - 90% of them - occur up/around 13 weeks. Do you know what a...

Understand what you're talking about in relation to firearms in America.

There are few things that are more annoying than people talking about topics they clearly do not understand. When I read about people commenting on gun control and throwing around statistical numbers such as "90% of people want background checks" with no source, followed quickly by "because of automatic weapons", I quite literally stop listening to another word they utter. They have no idea what they are talking about. Apparently these types of people have circled themselves with like minds and have never once had an actual debate, in which they listened, to the opposing argument. Now as a life Member of the NRA, I completely support background check as they are currently done in several States; in which the individual is scanned against prior warrants or filings of arrest. Frankly, I don't want a murderer buying a gun, but society by law has disagreed. Consider this, a Felon (say someone who murdered a person), maintains the right to vote, they also now have ...

POTUS can't stand SCOTUS.....and that is a good thing!

Image
The President didn't quite do a 'sit in' at his press conferences, but none the less he looked childish lambasting the Supreme Court for not following his agenda. Nothing more advocates for the branches of Power in the United States than his remarks. Though I completely disagree with the racist ruling SCOTUS did in regards to affirmative action - essentially telling white children they don't matter - but none the less, they are the law of the land. Meanwhile in progressive cry town: Obama called the Supreme Court's decision a setback that "takes us further from the country we aspire to be." But he predicted that an overhaul the immigration system would come eventually. "Congress isn't able to ignore America forever," he said. "It is heartbreaking for millions of immigrants who made their lives here, who raised families here," Obama said. This man clearly cares more about non-US Citizens than he does Citizens, he truly...

Shooter in Germany, killed...but let's look deeper.

German gun laws are among the most strict in the entire world. And what today, and frankly reality, shows is that making guns illegal or restricting their acquisition does NOT protect you from murderers. In fact, you have the exact same chance of being killed in Germany as in the United States. Source it: The German system of gun control is among the most stringent in Europe.  It restricts the acquisition, possession, and carrying of firearms to those with a creditable need for a weapon.  It bans fully automatic weapons and severely restricts the acquisition of other types of weapons.  Compulsory liability insurance is required for anyone who is licensed to carry firearms. In recent years, German gun-control law underwent several reforms that made it even more stringent.  A new Weapons Act became effective in 2003 after a school shooting in the city of Erfurt in which a student killed sixteen persons.  The new Act restricted the use of large caliber weap...

Democrats (and 1 Republican) in the US House of Representatives are Children.

For the last day people paid $172,000 a year have sat in the US House of Representatives and, unlike the assumed responsibility for dignity would stipulate, have sat on the floor and chanted over the Speaker as he tries to stay true to formal designs of the office. Instead of doing what they are paid to do which is be respectful dignitaries of their constituents and States, they have disgraced their Office. They took to the Floor as if they were upset children mad at a parent wouldn't let them have their way. Utilizing a political hot topic in the US they are attempting to up their chances of getting re-elected, by acting on the worst possible traits of humanity - the temper tantrum. They have no point to make, no plan, just mass confusion. Instead of attempting to work with others in their Offices to develop a true path to which limited access by known criminals to firearms can be achieved, they simply mutter rants and chants, as if America is stuck in the 1960s (over 50 years a...

Freddie Gray @ Baltimore.protest.com

Does anyone else in America think that it is insane that Cities literally prepare for violence (not protest) and riots (not gatherings) during a legislative verdict? Honestly, I thought we were against "lynch-mob justice"? Here we go again with the City of Baltimore spending tax dollars to possibly defend itself against its 'citizens'. All I can say is thank GOD this judge is black, as in the prosecution for the most part, because if he were white - oh my the calls of racism would hit the heavens. When Goodson is acquitted, as he should be, I hope the Maryland States Attorney's Office requests that Baltimore local attorneys drop the remainder of the cases. What we have here is an absurd reaction during a high-stress time by a prosecutor that acted in a ruthless manner. In fact, she should be disbarred as a result of her actions. I couldn't hope more that the defamation suits against her find positive light.

Eli Watkins, seriously....political producer covering Libertarians.....WTF.

Image
http://www.cnn.com/2016/06/22/politics/libertarian-town-hall-what-to-watch/index.html Eli Watkins Wow, CNN you honestly call this person a "Digital Producer" at CNN. He has been employed (that includes being an intern for God's sake) since 2013. I doubt you'd ever let someone this fresh off the boat cover the DEMS or REPS members - but you feel fine with Libertarians. Such a disgrace. Shocker his intern experience began for a Democrat, Hank Johnson , not that there is anything fundamentally wrong with that however this guy is no where near qualified to write in detail about the Libertarian party or base most of his limited writings, on Libertarians or political failings - much less be called a 'producer'. I'm not faulting this very young man , but stating that this would never fly as the kind of reporting expected for a DEM or REP candidate or topic. The most insane part is the bio, there is literally no real experience - so the question is "How...

Chicago, #blacklivesCLEARLYdonotmatter

Once again, a night like any other in Chicago Illinois, more than 10 people are shot - tonight was over 20. The horrible truth here is NOBODY in the media gives a shit. Not one care at all. A nightclub tragedy, a church tragedy - covered in mass, legislation, news and personalities galore; over 1400 shot in Chicago in 2016 so far, not a single care. While I disagree with 99% of the BLACKLIVESMATTER efforts (especially their tactics - progressive and moronic) I agree that there is a horrific disparity in coverage. When blacks murder blacks in mass quantities nobody cares. I don't say this to blame white people, not at all as white people aren't the ones killing these children. I say this to get folks like the BLM crew to question their own lives, their own neighbors, goals and agendas. After the latest supposed "mass shooting", which was actually a terrorist attack - but fuck logic - we have decided yet again, guns are the problem. Clearly, clearly, they are not. Gu...

Political Process in the US

The political process in the United States, with complete compliance of the media, uses humans/citizens like cattle. Simple creatures to be pushed to the right pen. The more I read by liberal progressive rags like The Washington Post, or CNN, the more I see how much these types of franchises really do hate Americans. They are against any form of individuality that doesn't fit a minority-style social-justice description, they clearly can't stand the Constitution of the United States, nor the Country's clear purpose. I suppose this is what America has become, as Thomas Jefferson believed, an unsustainable force. I fear that one day we will look back and wonder how something so special went so wrong. I offer it happens when social imperatives over come common sense; when votes matter more than the People and a system seems so jaded and corrupt that hope can only be found in a rich mogul who has never held office. I will attempt to keep an open mind but I simply cannot find a s...

NAAWP - National Association for the Advancement of White People.

Image
Let's just say the following Organization existed: The mission of the National Association for the Advancement of White People is to ensure the political, educational, social, and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination. Vision Statement The vision of the National Association for the Advancement of White People is to ensure a society in which all individuals have equal rights without discrimination based on race. And after all that, I called it the National Association for the Advancement of White People (NAAWP). In this organization I also focused on schools and the advancement of white students, offering them special courses and activities - curriculum - geared around improving their capacity. While I'm up, I also found "Historically White Colleges" and label them as such throughout the United States. With this organization, I sought equality. Since 63% of the population of the United States is declared 'w...

Discovery Channel accused of being "Insensitive" for having #SharkWeek with N.C. attacks.

Image
Attorney Mike McKinnley, a lawyer representing Jasmine Casine a recent shark attack victim in North Carolina, has threatened to sue the Discovery Channel for being "Irrationally insensitivity given the current events" and that if the Discovery Channel doesn't end the programming he will lead a Class Action Lawsuit as well as organizing a boycott. CEO John Adams was quoted as saying "this seems absurd, I mean SharkWeek has become an icon in the programming line up and, seriously, none of our sharks were even filmed off of N.C, so we're pretty sure they didn't hurt anyone". With the plethora of tagging going on and the accountability of the sharks it would seem as though Mr. Adams sits on firm ground, however, Mr. McKinnley doesn't see it that way: "Ya know what, if John had taken the time to watch the reality movie Jaws, based on obviously real and accurate accounts, he would understand the people are routinely attacked by sharks. In fac...

#blacklivesmatter - NO THEY DON'T

Image
Apparently black lives do in fact, NOT MATTER. Why else would blacks be killing themselves in record numbers? Over the weekend over 20 people were shot, a 7 year old killed, all in the urban streets of Chicago where "anti-2nd Amendment Gun Laws" are more prevalent than taxis.  Nobody marched, no riot, no obscene media coverage. No calls for removal of the City of Chicago's Flag. Why is there such an absurd double-standard in America for "Whites" and then "Blacks"? Don't quote me Slavery or oppression, maybe that was the calling card in 1960-1990 but certainly not now. Not with the sheer amount of laws on the books tilting everything in favor of one group of people (which by all accounts makes up less than 1/3 of the Nation - Democracy no more). Japanese families were imprisoned in America just 70 years ago (not 200) and they don't have special care programs or burn down their cities, why? How about every other ethnic version of a Caucasian ...

Independence Day

Image
With America as fractured as it is today in 2015, it is hard to imagine a similar group coming together in 1775 to wage war with one of the Greatest Empires to ever rule the world -- even harder to believe is this same rag-tag group would declare formal independence from the same.  The Colonies came together because of years of slights, not one simple event nor act. Historians, in an effort to educate the masses, attempt to boil events down to easy to remember chunks - the Stamp Act, the Boston Tea Party - however this was far more complex and happened over years, not months. Few remember that 1775 began the American Revolution (not the declaration in 1776) and that the Whig party within the Empire was very liberal and very much on the Colonies side right up until all out War. We also forget, generally, the role the French played in securing American independence, and that if it hadn't been for the 7-Years War (1754-1763) between France and England, American would most lik...

As Long as you keep looking for "Gay Rights" you'll have a legal battle.

Image
Stop singling yourselves out homosexuals and lesbians, start simply saying you want the rights of an American Citizen, which you are, under the Government. The same protections, deductions and accesses, nothing more nor less. When you keep reiterating that you're somehow 'different', you will continue to see a battle in your eyes. At this point, there should be little if anything limiting you from healthcare access, tax deductions, etc, anything offered by the Federal or State Governments. What this does not include is generalized 'acceptance' by the other Citizens, and you know what, no matter of 'law' does that. Constantly singling yourselves out as 'special cases' is what continues to lead you to a wall of opinion. My advice, live your life and stop comparing yourselves to others. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/27/us-usa-court-gaymarriage-future-idUSKBN0P62PH20150627

No Responsibility for Your Own Decisions

" The 57-year-old Compton, California construction worker has seen and endured too much, she says, to be excited. Over the years, five members of her family have been killed by guns: her two brothers, at the ages of 28 and 38; her nephew, at 19; her niece, at 16; and her niece's mother, at 28. All of them had dropped out of school in their teens. "We never felt like we were allowed near normal life," said White, speaking from the tidy, two-story home she purchased last year in the struggling suburb south of Los Angeles." Dear person, you and your family have done nothing "normal" that is why you find yourself outside of what you consider a "normal" life. Most people finish school, most people move away from places that have absurd violence, even if they have little money. You and yours have chosen (apparently for generations) to stay. It isn't America's job (and frankly based on your opinion, white americas job) to fix this for y...

Sharks taking the anniversary of Jaws too seriously.

Image
June 1 1975, the movie JAWS hits the screen, so on the 40th Anniversary some Sharks are taking this too seriously down in NC, USA. " When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn (Murra y Hamilton) overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and grizzled ship captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature." 5th Shark attack in NC this summer. http://www.myfoxny.com/story/29418254/shark

In order to form a "more perfect Union" - Same Sex Marriage

Image
The Supreme Court ruled to day that Nationwide same-sex marriages were not up for discrimination. It's funny, see the USSC is responsible for interpreting the US Constitution and Bill of Rights, not mandating for or against, moral doctrine. This is not a "Threat to Democracy", Scalia you fool and even if it were, it isn't your place as a USSC judge to dictate that. The problem here wasn't marriage, gender or otherwise, the issue was Governments once again making rules, laws and regulations based on non-nonsensical rhetoric. It is in no way the Governments place to say that 'legal age' Citizens must love one gender or the next. It is idiotic. The Government has no place in your bedroom and should have 'laws' to dictate one way or the other. This will not lead to : bestiality being legit, people allowed to 'love whatever they wish', this has gone as far as it will. Even if Conservative-morons will say otherwise. Congress shall make no ...

No, DrudgeReport, The USSC loves the Constitution - not 'moving left'

Image
I'm sorry Matt D that the Supreme Court doesn't want to impress you with rhetoric, their job is to enforce the Constitution and weigh it against Legislation, not public opinion - nor even what is 'good or bad' for the public. It focuses on a piece of paper, don't like it, get better Legislators. " WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the nationwide tax subsidies underpinning President Barack Obama's health care overhaul, rejecting a major challenge to the landmark law in a ruling that preserves health insurance for millions of Americans. The justices said in a 6-3 ruling that the subsidies that 8.7 million people currently receive to make insurance affordable do not depend on where they live, as opponents contended." http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_SUPREME_COURT_HEALTH_OVERHAUL_SUBSIDIES?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT
