September 2020

 Some friends of ours just told me a story that is so stupid, I wouldn’t believe it if I didn’t know them. He just tested COVID positive, having caught it from someone at work. He has to quarantine for ten days. She is a teacher. She, according to the interpretation of the latest CDC guidelines, has to remain in quarantine for the ten days that he is ill and quarantined, plus an additional 14 days to make sure that she herself isn’t contagious. If she herself tests positive at any point during that 24 day quarantine, then that changes everything. She would then only have to quarantine for ten days after her positive test. 

So here we have a situation where a person who tests negative would be held in quarantine for more than twice as long as someone who is sick. 

If it were me, I would deliberately catch COVID so I could be released from quarantine two weeks earlier. 

This is the 21st century version of burning books. The left, through its control of media, including social media, is censoring all positive mention of Kyle Rittenhouse. He has been declared to be an unperson. 

a Facebook spokesman confirmed that the company is removing posts “in support” of Rittenhouse, because the incident is considered a “mass murder” by the company.

Meanwhile, the man who murdered a Trump supporter in Portland? His Facebook page is unaffected.

The defamation lawsuits are going to be spectacular.

I wanted to do a post today about the death toll that has been attributed to the riots/protests/insurgency. It is impossible to get real data.  Some reports place it at more than 30, while left sources and so-called “fact checkers” are saying that the number is much lower. I myself have been able to confirm no fewer than 30 fatalities that are directly attributed to the violence in our cities.

This has caused me to revamp the dead zone list a bit. Any city that has a confirmed fatality that is attributed to BLM/Antifa activity will automatically be classed no lower than a zone 3. Any that has multiple fatalities that occur in more than one incident will be no lower than a Zone 4.

I know that this story is three weeks old, but I missed it.

More than 150 rounds were fired and one woman was shot in Portland on Friday night while protesters on Saturday – some of whom appeared to impersonate press – threw glass bottles and shined lasers at city police officers sent to quell the nighttime unrest witnessed for more than two months straight.

For that reason, I feel that Portland is the first American city that is actually in open warfare, and is thus a zone 5.

President Trump’s CDC today issued an order that prevents landlords from evicting tenants from residential property, as long as the renter makes less than $99,000 a year. The order states that the tenant is still required to pay rent. Well, if I can’t evict them, just how am I going to do that?

There is currently no mechanism to make a tenant pay, if that tenant is not under any threat of being evicted. This is an unconstitutional taking. You are telling me, as a property owner, that I cannot remove someone from my property. However, they are claiming that, since the tenant is still required to pay, it isn’t a taking without compensation.

Exactly how I will be compensated is my problem, I guess.

I guess I am getting communism no matter who I vote for.

Violent riots in Columbus Georgia on May 31.
In fact, the violence in Columbus has continued for months.
Thanks to the perpetrator of this stabbing stating that it was due to the BLM/Antifa movement, Columbus, Georgia is now rated at a Zone 3. I admit that Columbus should have been at that level to begin with. One of the cities that fell through the cracks, I guess.

The Trump administration says that they have reached out to the father of the rapist who was shot by police in Kenosha to request a visit from the President, but the father states that he is not interested in meeting with the President, stating that he has already met with “President Biden.”

Benjamin Crump, who is the man’s attorney stated that they had “received no calls to set up any kind of meeting,” which seems to be indicating that the Trump team is lying. Note, however the careful phrasing. The attorney didn’t say that they had not received a call, they claim that they had not received a call to set up a meeting. This is the kind of weasel language that lawyers use. As long as the call did not actually and specifically discuss a meeting, even if that was the purpose of the call, then both of the parties are telling the truth, even if the lawyer’s statement is a bit misleading.

Note how the press runs with that:

Benjamin Crump, the civil rights attorney who is representing Blake’s family, claimed no one from the White House had reached out to them.

Crump is a race baiting hustler and I wouldn’t trust him from here to… well, anywhere.
