Priorities

So let’s you and I make sure that we really understand what’s going on in St Louis.

Something on the order of 350 people died last year in St.Louis from Heroin.

Yet, we see all this rioting and upset over a drug dealers death, because the cop was white and the drug dealer was Black.

Do do you understand that there is something other than reality driving all of this, yet?

Addendum:(DavidL)

I confess to envy the rented George Soros mobs having the energy to be, or at least act, enraged.    I hold to the Dinesh D’Sousa description of black cultural as pathologically defective.  Thank Lyndon Johnson for his attempt to replace black fathers with taxpayers’ dollars.    Found this 2014 nugget from World Net Daily:

Black males in St. Louis were responsible for the vast majority (63.5 percent) of crimes committed. Other groups contribute significantly less to the serious crimes in St. Louis. White males made up 17 percent of arrests, black females were 14 percent of arrests and white females only 5.3 percent of arrests.

There are other strange imbalances in arrests: Black females were arrested for 14 murders compared with three white males arrested for murder. Black females were arrested for more robberies, aggravated assaults and larcenies than white males.

These are just a few of the lowlights in a city on the verge of becoming, as U.S. News said, the most dangerous city in America.

Priorities, or lack therefore of same.

The woman formerly known as the Smartest Woman in the World,  Mrs. B.J. Clinton, denies her campaigned was harmed by her husband’s clandestine meeting with the then attorney general, from Fox News:

[Former FBI director James] Comey led the Justice Department investigation into [Mrs. B.J.] Clinton’s use of private email servers as secretary of state, after [then Attorney General Loretta] Lynch stepped back in the probe, as a result of her allowing Bill Clinton into her airplane to talk while on the tarmac of a Phoenix airport.

“My husband and Loretta Lynch said they didn’t say a word” about the probe, Clinton told PBS. “I honestly reject that premise, partly because there’s a chain of command in the Justice Department.”

Two points, one if you don’t want to be perceived to be a rat, don’t act like a rat. B.J. Clinton sneaked on to Lynch’s aircraft and it only an alert local reporter who caught it. Two, B.J.”I never had sex with that Miss Lewinsky” is not exactly the avatar of honesty.

The Snark of the Day:   Don Surber:

Brooke Baldwin’s Blonde(Miss Clairol?) Disconnect: She approves of sending one message to my eyes, but disapproves sending a like message to her ears.

Trigger warning to Ms Brooke Baldwin.  references to sexual anatomy ahead.   Stop reading this post now.

These three people, Anna Wilson, Kate Wilson and David Low, are professors, or what passes for professors in Oz. They therefore must be smart, and must be heeded, listened to, no mocked, from Tes:

Playful urination practices – from seeing how high you can pee to games such as Peeball (where men compete using their urine to destroy a ball placed in a urinal) – may give boys an advantage over girls when it comes to physics. And we believe there’s something we can do about it.

No doubt you have some questions, the first is probably: what could possibly lead us to believe this?

Well, for starters, our recent analysis of the kinds of physics questions females generally do worse at than males. Add to that strong evidence for the widespread nature of certain kinds of pee-based game-playing among young (and not-so-young) boys. Finally, throw in our observations on curriculum sequencing and the ways in which formal, mathematically codified physics is often introduced to children and young people.

Taking the professors at their word. God gave little boys penises, but not little girls. Men, once little boys, are better at physics than women, who were deprived of their penises by God. It is the lack of penises which is why women have less aptitude for and desire to master physics than men. Memo to mom, I must be a girl because I never understood physics. This the good professors inform us leads to gender gap in physics.

Aside, being endowed, by God and not by a surgeon with a penis, is not a function of a person’s real or imagined gender. It is a property of the person’s sex, to wit male or female.

Moreover, if I were inclined to argue from a evolutionary biology perspective,  I would hold that solving practical trajectory problems in real time was a critical survival skill for our antecedents which hunted for survival. to wit the males,  much more than the females.

Meanwhile back at the ranch, if having a penis while a boy is the cause of disparity between men and women in physics, it can not properly be called a gender gap. Rather it is a God gap. Obviously, if God had wanted young girls to grown up to be physicists, he would have given them penises. Now girls, and Professor Low as well, crawl back to your kitchen and bake some cookies.

S.E. Cupp, New York Daily News asks:  Hillary Clinton’s bizarre push to blame
the media: What planet is she living on?

Don’t know the particular planet, but do know the name of the world, to wit Westeros.  Answer from Jonah Goldberg, National Review:

The thing is that even if you despise the theocrats, Cersei had every reason to be ashamed. She was, in fact, guilty of everything she was accused of. Yes, the person shouting “shame!” the loudest was an uptight prig and zealot, but most of the people shouting “shame!” were actually . . . the people. You might even call them deplorables. Cersei certainly would.

I honestly have no idea if Clinton watches Game of Thrones, but I think it’s interesting that the team that put together her book took it for granted that everyone reading it would see Cersei as a wholly sympathetic figure in that scene.

In Westeros, the nice people finish dead.    For reasons only known to George R.R. Martin be by virtue of what birth or marriage, Cersei believes she is entitled to rule, and is willing lie and murder to do so.     That Mrs. Clinton would sympathize with murderer like Cersei is about all you need to know about her fitness to be president.

For quite a few years now I have been reposting the message that I sent immediately following 9/11 and the attacks on that day.

This year, I think I’ll just toss a link to that article, but there are a couple of things that should probably be added.

The big question was have you forgotten. That was a song that spoke as much to the Future as to the present. As I suggested in the original article what we have here is a situation of problem identification. Of infact enemy identification. As I suggested at the time it is of vital importance that we don’t forget what happened in Manhattan that day.(By the way, as I write this I am within sight of the New Freedom Tower.)

This isn’t just a situation of our remembering the events ourselves, I don’t think there’s anybody who was alive back then who could possibly forget those events.

The trouble is around half the people alive today weren’t there then. Worse, we have been as a people reticent to teach about the events of that day. There are far too many who for political expediency don’t want to be “judgemental”… In spite of their being judgemental on everything else it seems.

And so, alas, they make the ground more fertile four more such attacks, more invasion of our culture buy a culture that is an anathema to our own.

Not only must we not forget ourselves the events of 9/11 but we must teach those who come after us so that they don’t forget. We have a responsibility to the Future of the American people and the American culture. It’s a responsibility that has all too often been ignored.

Don’t be figuring don’t be figuring your kids are going to learn about these events from the public schools. Remember that the left controls education in this country. Abdicating the responsibility of teaching about such matters to the government schools is abdication of the culture. Of America.

And people, America deserves better.

Price gouging in Houston? I don’t think so.

Ponder this for just a moment. At the average ballpark a bottle of water goes for $3.50.

At that price a 35 pack of water costs $122.50.

I’ve seen prices on bottled water in Houston going to $42 for a 35 pack.

Ballparks generally speaking are government-run. And certainly getting water into a ball park area is not the hardship that it is getting it into Houston these days.

Get the picture?

From Lone Conservative:

The University of California Berkeley, a well-known college that has been in the spotlight for wrong reasons, has labeled and documented the strict, almost unnecessary security measures they’re taking for The Daily Wire‘s Ben Shapiro. These security measures seem to be implemented due to Antifa and the far-left liberals who think conservative-thinking individuals are wrong, while ‘free speech’ only applies to those who think liberally.

Now, as of yesterday, UC Berkeley has announced they will offer services for teachers and student who are upset about Ben Shapiro being there and Shapiro’s speech. It doesn’t get more far-out than this.

intel, from Daily Caller:

A conservative is getting ready to speak publicly in Berkeley, and you know what that means: It’s time to engage in a frank and honest exchange of opinions between ideological opponents throw a huge riot!

Sounds like Berkley smells the Antifa rat.

Before the Commemorative Air Force was forced by political correctness to change her name she flew as the Confederate Air Force.   She was in the air again, video:

Well done gentlemen.

Title IX, from Don Surber:

[Betsy] DeVos is restoring student rights
The hysteria over an imaginary campus rape epidemic triggered by a false and libelous story in Rolling Stone has ended.

Grownups have replaced the Obama administration, and its misandric policies that stripped constitutional rights from men accused of rape.

The junior Senator from New York, Kristen Gillebrand will be upset.  It has been said that is better for ninety-nine murders to go free than to convict an innocent person.    For some strange reasons,  radical feminists evidently consider rape sexual assault to be a worse offense than cold blooded murder.

The Snark of the Day, Howie Carr, Boston Herald:

How many flood victims in South Texas have been rescued by the Antifa navy?

Don’t tell George Soros can’t afford a navy?

The Southern Poverty Law Center(SPLC) is a left wing hate group which is citied by the media as the authority on what is and is not hate, via Mike LaChance, Legal Insurrection:

Southern Poverty Law Center condemns antifa, but won’t call hate group

Richard Cohen, the president of the SPLC, told the Washington Examiner the loosely organized antifa movement, short for anti-fascism, is “wrongheaded” in opposing free speech and using violence.

“We oppose these groups and what they’re trying to do. We just don’t think anyone should be able to censor someone else’s speech,” Cohen said, echoing and endorsing recent statements from progressive scholar Noam Chomsky.

“We think they are contributing to the problem we are seeing,” Cohen said. “We think it’s likely to lead to other forms of retaliation. In Berkeley, antifa showed up and shut down speeches. The next time the white supremacists brought the Oath Keepers with them, they brought their own army.”

He said, however, the SPLC won’t label antifa a “hate group” because adherents do not discriminate against people on the basis of race, sexual orientation or other classes protected by antidiscrimination laws, such as religion.

“There might be forms of hate out there that you may consider hateful, but it’s not the type of hate we follow,” Cohen said.

Reax, LaChance:

The American people are smarter than the SPLC or the media believe. It’s obvious to anyone who’s watching which side Antifa is on and voters will remember in future elections.

Antifa hates free speech, and hates it so much they will resort to violence to shut down ideas they lack the intellect to refute. Yet the SPLC does not deem Antifa to a hate group. The SPLC does not so much oppose a state of mind, to wit hate. To the SPLC it does not matter what you do. It only matter who you do it to. So attacking a liberal idea is deemed hate, but throwing a bottle of urine at conservative is not.

Buck Sexton, from Hill:

Antifa claims for itself the heckler’s veto under the cover of so-called “Nazi punching,” but it rarely if ever even attempts to punch actual Nazis.

And so this lie is exposed for what it really is: an excuse to inflict violence on any ideological opponent, at any time, for any reason. All they have to do is throw around the term “Nazi” to smear a conservative, and basic respect for the freedom and the rights of others no longer applies.

Antifa claims to opposes Nazis. Even taking Antifa at her word, it is hard to impossible to detect any difference.

If President Trump is “racist” for pardoning Sheriff Joe, then President Obama is A “terrorist” for pardoning the member of the FALN. He is also a “traitor” for pardoning Bradley Manning who leaked classified documents and was convicted of espionage.

Hmm?

The truth of course is a bit different. Joe Arpaio was actually following the law. The others, clearly, were not.

Supposedly, voter fraud doesn’t exist. That’s the Democrats will tell you, anyway. But the facts are a little bit different. Chicago City Wire reports….

More than 14,000 votes were cast in Chicago during the 2016 general election than there were voters to cast them, based on separate figures released by the Chicago Board of Elections, the chairman of the Chicago Republican Party has reported. Chris Cleveland told the Chicago Wire that “on a whim,” he filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the board, which provided him with a list of 1,101,178 people who voted in the general election. An earlier post on the board’s website said that 1,115,664 votes had been cast. “There should be never be more votes than voters,” Cleveland said. “Every ballot cast should be recorded against a registered voter.” The party did a breakdown of voting by precinct, and Cleveland said it found an uneven distribution of discrepancies. Fifteen precincts had 100 more ballots cast than voters, while others had fewer votes than voters.

Tom Lifson over at the American Thinker notes that Judicial Watch has been all over this thing as well.

Washington-based Judicial Watch named Illinois among 11 states that have another kind of discrepancy in their voting rolls: The number of registered voters exceeds the number of voting-age citizens as determined by a review of Census data. In April, the group sent a notice-of-violation letter along with a threat to sue the 11 states. Robert Popper, director of Judicial Watch’s Election Integrity Project and formerly deputy chief of the voting section of the Civil Rights Division of the Justice Department, said that not maintaining accurate voting rolls violates the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. “People remember the act as the ‘motor voter’ law because it requires the states to offer voter registration forms with driver license applications,” Popper said. “But what a lot of people forget is that as a compromise for getting the act through, it requires states to maintain accurate voting rolls.” Judicial Watch identified 26 Illinois counties where voter registration was higher than the number of people eligible to vote, according to Census numbers.

Lifson goes on from there, saying in part…

But we can expect that Democrats will continue to dismiss the possibility that vote fraud worked for them on a significant scale. The fact that they resist investigation is telling.

Indeed….it doesn’t take a great deal of guessing the come up with the idea that the only reason that Hillary Clinton figured she had this one in the bag, and why all the polls thought she had it in the bag, and why she won the popular vote particularly in liberal states where the vote fraud was occurring such as Illinois and California, was because the Democrats had the vote fraud machine working. She only won the popular vote because she cheated. The Democrats cheated and lied their way through this. The trouble was for them at least that they couldn’t overcome the American voters even with all that going for them.

It would also explain why the Democrats are so fearful of any kind of Investigation into vote fraud.

Read me carefully on this one.

We already know that Bernie Sanders got screwed over by the Democrat Party. Ironically we can be thankful that he was. But that said, if the Democrats were willing to pull that nonsense on one of their own, does anybody really think that given the opportunity they wouldn’t do the same thing to the rest of America?

The Instinct of the American people was that Hillary Clinton and those surrounding her needed to see some serious jail time not the inside of The White House… Their Instinct has been proven correct.

Now it’s down to hauling her and those surrounding her, in chains, to the big house.
