Hitler’s revenge: Unseen photos published to mark Warsaw Ghetto Uprising’s 80th anniversary show the Nazis’ brutality as they crushed Jewish resistance fighters’ bid to stop families being taken to death camps

  •     The unseen images were taken by Polish engineer Rudolf Damec
  •     The Ghetto Uprising took place from April 19 until May 16, 1943

As plumes of smoke spew from behind the ghetto wall, well-dressed Germans watch on, willingly indifferent to the atrocities being carried out on the other side.

Another photo shows a group standing beside a playground in Nazi-occupied Warsaw as burning buildings from the Jewish ghetto are engulfed in flames and billowing smoke.

A third shows women and children being rounded up as soldiers stand by with rifles, ensuring they do not cause any trouble.

I don’t understand.  Even the flat-earthers have at least an understandable belief system  — close up the horizon looks flat.  I don’t understand how the these befuddled fools can have any principle to stand on.  One can only hope that they get worse ridicule that the flat-earthers who are harmlessly just wrong; these other people are sick dangerous.

imho

DISCOURAGING: Huh, “obstruction of governmental administration”, how abput attempted murder?

New video shows suspect with 11 prior arrests hit NYPD cop with bottle in broad daylight attack

He then charges at her and swings at another cop standing next to her before he is taken to the ground by that officer and at least one other person, the footage shows. 

Garcia, of Kingsbridge Heights, was arrested and charged with assault, obstruction of governmental administration, resisting arrest, menacing, criminal possession of a weapon, and harassment, police said. 

He has 11 previous arrests, law enforcement sources said.

*** end quote ***

Sorry, but NYC is officially out of control. 

I can somewhat see a low bail or ORO for a minor charge; second and subsequent arrests are REMAND!

Absurd to allow this lawlessness to go unpunished.

DISCOURAGING: How can we contaminate women’s athletics with men “transitionoing”?

Saturday, March 25, 2023

The photos that will stop you in your tracks: As more states seek ban on trans women competing in women’s sports, experts insist the ‘undeniable’ physical advantage CAN’T be undone by gender-affirming care

  •     The hugely divisive issue of trans participation in sport returned to the spotlight after a school girls’ team won a state title with help from a trans girl
  •     It’s the latest flashpoint in the debate that was thrust into the mainstream when trans swimmer Lia Thomas became an NCAA champion in March 2022
  •     Researchers and elite athletes say the science speaks for itself: Trans women have a physical advantage that can’t be undone

The incendiary issue of transgender participation in sports returned to the fore this week after a high school girls’ team won a state championship with help from a biological male. Olympic medalists were among critics who joined the backlash to Chloe Barnes’ role in Brookline High School’s victory in Massachusetts . Barnes is a junior who competed under rules that allow students to ‘participate in a manner consistent with their gender identity’. This is just the latest flashpoint in the debate that was thrust into the mainstream when trans swimmer Lia Thomas became an NCAA champion in March 2022. Supporters of inclusion claim fairness can be maintained when biological males compete against women, while opponents that argue women’s sports must be protected face accusations of transphobia. But cut through the often toxic political mudslinging that dominates the debate and, according to researchers and elite athletes, the science speaks for itself: trans women have a physical advantage over biological females – and no treatment exists which can unravel that.

It’s just not fair!

And, it’s a contra-survival of the species to allow it to continue.

It’s not like we have to permit these individuals to turn society’s norms on their head.

Time to get our “definitions” correct!

DISCOURAGING: What’s messed up and what’s not

Saturday, March 18, 2023

​*** begin quote ***
 
Pretty sure everyone with even a couple of functional brain cells can see that everything is falling apart. Whether by design or coincidence can be debated, personally I believe it is a mix of by design and unintended consequences thrown in for good measure. Inflation, Crime, Random acts of violence, a failed public education system, supply chain malfunctions, work force participation, illegal immigration, food shortages, sheer Government incompetence, Polarization and Deep Divisions, A general mix of fear and hostility out in society. The list just keeps going to the point that the list of things NOT wrong and messed up is a lot shorter than the list of things that ARE wrong and messed up.
 
*** end quote ***​
 
I’d point out the SVB depositors bailout as a “national disaster”.

DISCOURAGING: The USA is and has been in a “Fall of Rome” death spiral

When Strength Is Needed, America Shows Weakness
By John Green  — March 6, 2023

*** begin quote ***

In the past, America was feared by its adversaries because of its sheer industrial might. During WWII, we built over 300,000 airplanes and 99 aircraft carriers. Now we can’t keep store shelves stocked with basics like baby formula. Unloading ships in a timely fashion seems to be a skill beyond our ability.

We’ve sacrificed the reliability of our electric grid in a quixotic attempt to control the weather. In pursuit of renewable power sources, we have allowed far more reliable sources to become vulnerable to sabotage and poorly maintained.

The Biden administration has depleted our strategic petroleum reserve in a failing attempt to control prices at the pump — something the reserve was never intended for. The reserve is now at its lowest level since 1984. At the same time, the administration has restricted domestic energy production. We are now energy dependent on some of the most unstable regions in the world.

*** end quote ***

When we need “leadership”, we don’t get it.  Say what they want about DJT45 and RWR40, it was handy for the world to think they were strong and a little crazy.  

Argh!

DISCOURAGING: Seems that almost ⅓ of the population has left the workforce

Monday, February 27, 2023

Adding a new category: DISCOURAGING!  Because a lot of the news is just that.

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2023/02/tia_this_is_africa_no_this_is_america.html

*** begin quote ***

There is a monthly government statistic called U-6 and another metric called Civilian Labor Force Participation Rate. These two stats, added to the official Unemployment rate, reveal another estimated 12 million unemployed or underemployed individuals over and above the official stats. Another important metric is people who could work but choose not to do so. Yes, the government keeps that number as well.

When you combine all these numbers, you approach 100 million people who don’t work for a variety of reasons. That number has risen by about 35 million in the last ten years.

*** end quote ***

How can the USA survive if there are no willing workers?
