‘No One Saw a Thing’: When a Small Midwest Town Banded Together to Kill the ‘Town Bully’

Friday, August 9, 2019

Premiering on Thursday, Aug. 1, on SundanceTV, No One Saw a Thing (executive produced by Jason Blum) is a six-part documentary about the tiny rural enclave of Skidmore, Missouri, home to an incident that became so notorious they even made a TV movie about it (1991’s In Broad Daylight, starring Brian Dennehy, Cloris Leachman, Marcia Gay Harden and Chris Cooper): the July 10, 1981 slaying of Ken Rex McElroy, a “town bully” with 37 felonies to his name, and a hulking mutton-chopped 47-year-old who terrorized locals to no end, including shooting multiple people for no good reason. He was, by all accounts, the sort of monstrous bad guy one might find in an old Western.

Folks, at the end of the day, carry your guns. Even if it’s to Walmart. There is no safe place in this world. Safe spaces are an illusion, a lie we tell ourselves to believe that we can shut the evil in the world out and create a Utopia, even if only on the tiny patch of ground beneath our feet.

If you can, you should.

Napolitano: The 2nd Amendment Isn’t A Gift From The Government

Thursday, August 8, 2019

AP Photo/Richard Drew Judge Andrew Napolitano is bringing the heat in a stinging column for the Washington Times , rebutting and refuting the arguments by gun control activists that they can simply ignore the text of the 2nd Amendment and Supreme Court decisions and enact whatever anti-gun laws they want.

*** begin quote ***

We have civil commitment laws on the books in states across the nation. If we believe that someone is truly a danger to themselves or others, isn’t that a more appropriate place to seek help rather than a court hearing where a judge only hears one side of the case before making a determination about whether or not someone poses a threat to themselves or others?

*** end quote ***

Why not use the tools that already exist?  Because it doesn’t fit the narrative and disarm the people so the Gooferment can do whatever it wants to “We, The Sheeple”!

Do We Need Laws to Help Curb our Social Media Addiction?

Thursday, August 8, 2019

If his Social Media Addiction Reduction Technology Act (SMART Act) becomes law, your social media experience will be littered with authoritarian pop-ups imploring you to maintain 30-minute time limits and instead of easy-to-use scrolls, your feeds will turn into click-controlled social media rations. In short, your social media experience will become so annoying and static that you may, in fact, start using it less. So, Hawley will win, but you, and, especially, social media, will lose.

Where in the Constitution does it make Gooferment the arbiter of how social media should work? Are “We, The Sheeple” just little children to be “protected” from their own choices. What’s next an “Eat Your Vegetables” Act? Argh!

Scientists suggest staring down seagulls to protect your snacks – CNET

Wednesday, August 7, 2019

Researchers at the University of Exeter in the UK wanted to know if staring at seagulls might dissuade them from abducting your dinner, so they headed to coastal towns in Cornwall.

The team put a bag of chips (that’s fries for us US folks) on the ground and monitored how long it took the gulls to approach the food. “On average, gulls took 21 seconds longer to approach the food with a human staring at them,” the university said in a release on Tuesday.

America Is Not Going To Be A Free And Open Society Any Longer

Tuesday, August 6, 2019

Authored by Michael; Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog, Whenever a tragic act of violence makes national headlines, the calls to give up more of our freedoms and liberties in exchange for the promise of increased security become deafening.

*** begin quote ***

As The Epoch Times’ Jack Phillips reports, at least seven people were shot and wounded on Aug. 4 as they gathered near a children’s playground on Chicago’s West Side. The people gathered at 1:20 a.m. as they stood in the park on the 2900 West Roosevelt Road when a person opened fire from a black Chevy Camaro, said Chicago Police.

So why didn’t this mass shooting get the same kind of coverage that the other mass shootings received?

Could it be that it is because it didn’t neatly fit the agenda that the mainstream media is trying to promote?

*** end quote ***

Of course, “The Press” is a weaponized propaganda arm of the liberal left wing of the “Democratic” Party.

It’s time to hold them to account, along with the “Tech Giants”, who are manipulating “We, The Sheeple” like Judas goats.

The American Experiment failed with the “War of Northern Aggression” AKAK “The Civil War”.  All that’s left is to bury it and move on.

The American Empire will collapse shortly as do all “empires” as a result of the loss of “civic virtue”, decadence, and debt.

So sad.  Look at Venezuela and see the pain and strife coming to the USA as “democratic socialism” transform into dictatorial communism.

“If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

Judicial Watch: New Docs Show FBI Agents Went To Comey’s Home to Retrieve Memos | Judicial Watch

Monday, August 5, 2019

“These extraordinary FBI docs further confirm that James Comey should never have had FBI files on President Trump at his home and that the FBI failed to secure and protect these private and classified files,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.  “Mr. Comey’s illegal leaking these FBI files as part of his vendetta against President Trump (directly resulting in the corrupt appointment of Robert Mueller) ought to be the subject of a criminal investigation.”

On June 8, 2017, Comey testified to the Senate Intelligence Committee that he leaked memos of his conversations with President Trump “because (he) thought that might prompt the appointment of a special counsel.” Columbia University Law professor Daniel Richman, a friend of Comey’s, reportedly “turned over copies of the former FBI director’s explosive memos … to the FBI, sidestepping a request by congressional committees to deliver the materials to Capitol Hill.”

Not Even Dollars Can Save Venezuelans From Inflation’s Wrath

Monday, August 5, 2019

The government’s policy has shown signs of working, albeit at the cost of further strangling an economy that’s been atrophying for years. The annual inflation rate tumbled to 34,900% from 224,900% at the end of last year, according to Bloomberg’s Cafe Con Leche Index. But still, it hasn’t slowed inflation as much as the rate of the bolivar’s declines.
