Useless Boondoggle

The city of Chicago spent $49 on Shotspotter, costing the city a quarter of a million bucks for each Shotspotter arrest, with the system missing 99% of the shots fired. Even when the system DOES work, it takes Chicago PD more than half an hour to respond to one of their own being shot and killed.

In a city where it takes cops a half an hour to respond to a cop being shot, how long will you have to wait when you call them to report the killer breaking into your home?

Answer: The rest of your life.

Just for Me, Not You

Andrew Wilkow has a theory that the only reason why the left is opposed to capitalism and rich people is because they can’t stand knowing that ordinary people have access to luxuries that only the important people should have. After all, what’s the point of being a VIP if anyone with money could do it? He calls this theory his “Everyman a King” theory. So what’s an elitist to do?

Advocate for laws that restrict the poor from having things while leaving yourself exempt. Check out Taylor Swift, a gun control supporter.

Now check out her $3 million a year worth of armed security, including hiring off duty armed cops. Even in Australia, she is accompanied by armed guards. Guns are only illegal in Oz if you are poor, I guess.

She is so paranoid about security that she admits to carrying what she calls “Army grade QuikClot bandage dressings” for gunshot or stab wounds. She uses facial recognition at her concerts to help weed out security threats.

So she hates guns- unless they are to protect her. Even then, this airheaded, paranoid moron fires her security guards for doing their jobs. It may be a well paid gig, but I wouldn’t be interested.

Delusional

Every leftist is convinced, once their communist/socialist utopia is achieved, that they will be able to write shitty rap music, play video games, and pursue leisure activities all day while the government gives them everything for free.

The reality is that they will have all of their possessions taken, and will be assigned a job on a collective work farm or people’s factory.

Give Us Your Money

Hawaii residents still think that they are entitled to payment from the mainland. There are a large number of ‘native’ people who believe that Hawaii was some sort of peaceful paradise until Europeans arrived, and they think secession will return them to the ‘good old days.’ Of course that is false, and is simply another variation on the myth of the “noble savage.”

In reality, most Hawaiians are rather racially biased against white people, who they refer to as Haole (pronounced “howly”) and blame them for all of Hawaii’s perceived problems. They demand that whites pay them, because reasons, thinking that white people giving them money will solve their problems.

Black Ops

OK, so I couldn’t resist the play on words. Still, 20 US cities paid more than $80 million in settlements to BLM and Antifa.

  • Seattle just agreed to pay $10 million to 50 rioters injured by police in 2020.
  • Denver is paying $4.7 million to 300 BLM rioters arrested in 2020.
  • Philadelphia is paying them $9 million.
  • New York City is shelling out $13 million.
  • In total, $890+ million in taxpayer dollars is going to pay out BLM protestors in 20 US cities.

Democrats are bankrolling rioters with our tax dollars so they can continue to riot. That’s why we continue to see the same people all over the country rioting for the latest causes. They’re employees — not activists. It’s an industry and we’re all paying for it.

This funding will be used to cause even more mayhem in the coming election year.

Breakdown of Civilized Society

The complete loss of not only common sense (they admit to eating meat while claiming that the killing of animals is wrong) and the complete loss of civility (an adult allowing his preteen son to call an adult an asshole and tell him to fuck off) is just a bridge too far.

The American people and its society have completely broken down.
