Notice how the press isn’t really spreading that around? Yeah, the shooter is described as a 28 year old female former student named Audrey Hale. I thought that was odd, mostly because the vast majority of school shooters are men, and 28 years old is a bit old for a former student to be holding a grudge. After all, the school only teaches to 6th grade, meaning that this loon wasn’t a student there for at least the past 16 years.
While police initially described the suspect as a 28-year-old white woman, social media profiles under Hale’s name list he/him pronouns. Nashville Police Chief John Drake said at a press conference Monday afternoon that Hale was transgender.
The police also revealed that this shooting was planned for some time, with the date being chosen for some sort of significance as stated in his manifesto (don’t the usually have a manifesto?).
A search of Hale’s home turned up “maps drawn of the school, in detail, so, surveillance, entry points, et cetera,” Drake said. Cops also found a manifesto and “some writings that pertain to this date, the actual incident… of how this was all going to take place.”
I say that the fact that the shooter is transgender IS relevant to the facts of the shooting, since we know that 32-50% of transgenders are suicidal. Perhaps its time to add anyone with gender dysphoria to the NICS prohibited database. Now that puts the left in a quandry- they will be forced to choose one or the other- admit that firearms ownership is a civil right for everyone, or that transgenders have mental problems that justify denying firearms ownership.
Perhaps you posted that meme of supermodel Tyra Banks exploding in anger on “America’s Next Top Model” (“I was rooting for you! We were all rooting for you!”). Or maybe you’ve simply posted popular GIFs, such as the one of NBA great Michael Jordan crying, or of drag queen RuPaul declaring, “Guuuurl…”
If you’re Black and you’ve shared such images online, you get a pass. But if you’re White, you may have inadvertently perpetuated one of the most insidious forms of contemporary racism.
So to sum up contemporary equity theory: No matter what you do, if you are white, you are a racist. See, we already know that the mere allegation of a white man calling a black man a “nigger” is considered to be justification for aggravated assault in the minds of black people. There have been many court cases proving that. It’s called the “n word” defense.
a white person calling a black person a “nigger” is fighting words that justify whatever happens to the white person as a result of violence on the part of any black person within earshot.
In fact, the Nevada Law Journal has put forward the Critical Race Theory idea(pdf alert) that racial words activate a syndrome in blacks called “post traumatic slave syndrome,” which according to them is “a condition that exists when a population has experienced multigenerational trauma resulting from centuries of slavery and continues to experience oppression and institutionalized racism today.”
They claim that using words that hurt people’s feelings is a form of violence that justifies the use of force in self defense, but only if the person using them is a heterosexual white male. The justification is that: “The problem of psychological assault appears across ethnic, gender, and socio-economic lines, but has a greater impact on marginalized social groups such as women, children, African Americans, and the LGBT community.” They call the use of these terms Socio-Psychological Tyranny (SPT), and claim that the Second Amendment serves as a constitutional basis for the use of physical force in protecting the liberty, psychological, and dignity interest of citizens—that is, it justifies defending the spirit as well as the body.
But only against white males.
The article in the Nevada Law Journal is written by a Law Professor, who is laying down a legal argument for genocide against whites. How does he propose to do this? Changing the law. His proposed law would read:
A person is justified in using non-deadly physical force to ward off abusive conduct that the person reasonably perceives as creating a substantial risk of causing serious psychological injury.
“Abusive conduct” is defined as: conduct that a reasonable person would find hostile or offensive without superseding social, business or cultural value.
“Serious psychological injury” is defined as long-term injuries such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress.
In determining whether offensive conduct rises to the level of abuse, courts should weigh the severity, nature, and frequency of the conduct . A single act normally will not constitute abusive conduct, but an especially severe and egregious act may meet this standard. Abusive conduct may include, but is not limited to: repeated infliction of verbal abuse such as the use of derogatory remarks, insults, and epithets; verbal or physical conduct that a reasonable person would find threatening, intimidating, or humiliating.
The part that makes this truly worrisome, and specifically targets white males is this:
The question of whether the target’s response was reasonable should take into account power imbalances between the aggressor and the target, and whether the aggressor was previously aware of the target’s “emotional vulnerability and needlessly attempted to exploit that vulnerability.
Power imbalance is how the left justifies saying that blacks can’t be racist, because they have no power.
The paper then goes on to claim that “the Second Amendment was framed to empower citizens to counteract power imbalances.”
It goes on:
Clearly, the Second Amendment is concerned with tyranny and oppression and the founder’s notions of tyranny and oppression far exceeded the threat of physical violence. Severe emotional and psychological abuse, such as the use of the word nigger in certain contexts and sustained psychological violence in domestic situations, clearly constitute oppression. When the powerful commit it against the less powerful, it signifies a brand of tyranny: SPT.
Get it? You are white, therefore a racist. Since you are a racist, anything that you do or say, including simply being a white male, justifies the use of force to rectify that situation.
The stage is being set for a genocidal war between straight white males and the rest of the nation. White males are being “othered” and targeted for elimination. I seriously don’t want to sound like this is a racist website, but it seems like more and more, people like me are being targeted with calls to violence.
When an employee of the company is arrested for child pornography, Disney suspends them, pending the outcome of the charges. The company states that the accused employees are innocent until proven guilty.
That same courtesy does not apply to employees that are found to have a firearm in their car. Doug and Linda Gray, had been faithful employees of the company for a decade, and were fired in 2007 after it was discovered that they had a firearm in their car. They also were given a trespass warning that barred them from ever again entering company property.
Because Disney is mouthing woke platitudes, the faggot and tranny employees are blind to the fact that the company is laying off over 7,000 employees and screwing them over, despite the fact that the company made more than $2 billion in profit this quarter. The layoffs will increase those profits by over 50% per year. I guess profits are only evil if you don’t claim to be woke.
Doctor Luft is claiming that Chinese state-controlled energy company CEFC was paying $100,000 a month to President Biden’s son Hunter and $65,000 to Joe’s brother Jim, in exchange for their FBI connections and use of the Biden name to promote China’s Belt and Road Initiative around the world. Doctor Luft says that, from 2015 to 2018, he was responsible for organizing international energy conferences for Patrick Ho. Ye Jianming confided to Dr. Luft that Hunter had an was extremely well placed informant in the FBI, who they paid lots of money to provide sealed law enforcement information and other classified information that could be of use to the CCP.
Patrick Ho is the chairman of the Chinese Energy Fund Committee, a USA nonprofit that lobbies on behalf of the Chinese Energy Fund Commission, who has Ye Jianming as its chairman. Ye and Ho are described as Hunter’s Chinese “business partners.” This is because Hunter has so much experience running companies, like the Ukrainian gas company he was in charge of, despite never actually, you know, being in charge of anything. It’s important at this point to remember that China is a communist country, and therefore all companies belong to the communist party, who also owns the government.
The FBI mole told Ye that the Southern District of New York was investigating him and/or Ho in late 2017, and that “an Asian, an African, and a Jewish guy” were named on a sealed indictment. Soon after that tipoff, Ye offered Hunter $1 million to be his “private counsel” and flew to China. He was detained in Shanghai three months later and disappeared.
Hunter was paid $1 million by CEFC to represent Ho, which entailed contacting his FBI sources on Ho’s behalf and engaging another attorney to do the legal work, according to emails on his laptop. CEFC paid a further $4.9 million to Hunter and Jim Biden in monthly installments for 14 months from August 2017, government records show. The House Oversight Committee released bank statements last week, showing an additional $1,065,000 was funneled from a Chinese company affiliated with CEFC to Hunter, Jim, and Hallie Biden, Hunter’s former lover, and widow of his late brother, Beau. The payments were made in increments over three months through Biden associate Rob Walker, whose wife, Betsy, had been personal assistant to then-second lady Jill Biden. So in total, the Chinese government has paid the Biden family at least $7 million.
The worst part of all this, is that the FBI knew every bit of this by 2018. There is no other conclusion that can be drawn here, other than this: The FBI and the White House are fully under the control of the CCP. Here is a link to Tucker Carlson reporting on the entire story.
I missed a couple of days because of work obligations, and it appears as though I was too late to say most of what needed to be said about this video because other blogs beat me to it.
I do, as you would expect, have a couple of thoughts to add that perhaps others haven’t thought of.
This idea comes along all the time from anti-gunners- the idea that a militia armed with AR-15’s can’t fight a government armed with tanks, fighter jets, and nukes. The most obvious retort to this, is that this argument only makes the case that the 2A applies to tanks, jets, nukes, and especially MANPADS, ATGMs, and other heavy weapons. (If you don’t want 2A to apply to nukes, I am sure that you would have no problem getting an Amendment passed to that effect.)
No, the less obvious answer is that a militia isn’t going to be relegated to a confined field of play, as if war was some sort of spectator sport like football. The more likely continuation of the above video is that Staff Sergeant Jeremiah Walker leaves his bunker from a long day of shooting drone launched Hellfire missiles at NRA members like Andy Baker and gets in his car to go home. When he gets there, he discovers his 12 year old son in bed in a pool of his own blood, his throat slashed from ear to ear. Rigor mortis has already set in. His wife and 4 year old daughter are missing. In the girls bed is a note which reads: “If you ever want to see your daughter alive again, the next Hellfire you shoot needs to hit Senator Schumer.”
He refuses, and redoubles his desire to kill the entire membership of the NRA. His daughter’s body is found in a ditch two days later, his wife is never found. In his rage, the distraught Staff Sergeant begins randomly firing Hellfires into right wing neighborhoods, killing dozens of people, some of whom may actually have been gun owners, most were not. The father of one of those killed is the vendor who sells pork to the base mess hall. One day, about a month after the daughter’s death, the Staff Sergeant is eating in the mess hall when he finds his wife’s engagement ring in his pulled pork. Tests confirm that the “pork” is a match to his wife’s DNA. The butcher is never caught and is currently wanted by the FBI, who believes that he has joined the growing underground resistance movement.
Two weeks after the arrest warrant is issued, the FBI is distracted by another case at the Norfolk navy base when 140 sailors die after someone added a deadly bacteria to a shipment of lettuce that was bound for the USS Gerald R. Ford’s mess facility. The entire US military is ordered to begin eating only MRE’s or canned food manufactured more than 6 months ago. Morale plunges with food quality, and the government soon realizes that they have less than 90 days of “safe” food supplies for themselves, even after confiscating all canned goods nationwide. Citizens in large cities begin having food riots as most people can’t get more than 900 calories a day. The food just isn’t there.
Civil wars get ugly. Bosnia. Rwanda. Rhodesia. Kosovo. Even the American Civil War. The US civil war, as a percentage of the US population, was the bloodiest war in American history. In 1860, the US census measured the population at 31.5 million people. Six to ten million were killed and wounded. That means the war killed and wounded 20 to 30 percent of the nation. If a conflict with similar casualty rates were to occur today, we would see about 40 million killed and another 30 million wounded in direct hostilities, and another 60 million dead from disease and famine. With casualty rates like that, societies break down. Medical systems stop working. Famine, disease, and poverty reign.
The secret here is that the government is scared. Every senior government official saw exactly what we saw- nearly 400 cops being held at bay by a single teenaged loser with an AR-15 because they didn’t want to get “clapped.”
Then they realize that the nation has well over 100 million gun owners, many of them veterans, who like to see how fast they can shoot things that are as far as a mile away. For fun. They remember the two losers who shut down all of DC by creating a sniper’s hide in the trunk of a car. How can they trust a police department to protect them when the shooting starts? This scares them, which is why there was a division of troops airlifted into DC in the days following J6.
And before those on the right get too smug, don’t be thinking that the military will automatically refuse orders to kill civilians. History is filled with examples of militaries that gleefully slaughtered their own citizens when ordered to do so.
No, the most likely outcome of a civil war is for some people, and some military units, to take one side in the conflict, and others to take the other. Then there will be those who are nominally on one side while feeding information to the other. It’s the kind of conflict that starts with a few thousand and soon sees everyone choosing sides. Picture a US Civil War, part 2 where a third of the nation is dead or incapacitated within half a decade.
That’s something that is truly frightening to me, and something to be avoided at any cost short of abject despotism. It is also an outcome that seems more likely every day, because there are those on both sides that seem to desire it.
It’s that time of year again- cops begin offering money for unwanted guns. I have an old piece of crap Stevens single shot .22 rifle that I would like to turn in for some ammo money. I just won’t drive all the way to Orlando to get $50, especially not Pine Hills.
Oh, and the article claims a grenade was turned in at a past event. The guy got a good deal, because it was an inert grenade:
When a Black or white couple have the same income, deductions and family structure, they will have the same tax liability, Gale said. But given the average economic differences between white and Black couples, according to the report, Black married couples are still more likely to face penalties and smaller bonuses.
Before tearing into the faulty logic here, I want to point out that “white” is not capitalized once in the article, while “Black” is capitalized every time. A bit of subtle “othering” that happens in journalism today.
So the taxes aren’t racist, it’s just that black married couples have more children than their white counterparts and taxpayers with children generally tend to face larger penalties under our current tax code. So it would be more accurate to say that the tax code discriminates against those with children.
I call bullshit on that, too. If a couple has a child, they get additional personal exemptions, they also get:
child tax credit
dependent care credit
earned income credit
adoption credit
education credit
Let’s look at two married couples: they have the same income, same jobs, same financial situation. Each couple earns a combined $68,000 a year. Their employers withheld $5,000 from their paychecks for Federal taxes. The only difference is that couple one has no children, and couple two has two children.
Couple one is in the 12 percent tax bracket, with an effective tax rate of 11.03%. They will pay $4,644 in Federal income taxes this year, so they will get a $356 refund.
Couple two has two children. They are both latchkey children, so there are no childcare expenses to deduct. They are also in the 12 % bracket, and had the same effective tax rate as couple two. However, they get more credits, so only wind up paying a net $644 in Federal income tax, and will wind up with a refund of $4,356.
So if in fact black couples have more children that whites, blacks pay LESS in taxes.
A Republican controlled legislature and governor passed the law saying that 18-20 year olds are second class citizens with no Second Amendment rights.
In 2018, when the law was passed, Republicans had a 79-41 majority in the Florida House, and a 25-15 majority in the Florida Senate. Rick Scott was the Governor.
The 11th circuit is made up of 2 Democrat and 1 Republican judges. The decision was unanimous.
Don’t for one second think that the Republicans are your friends.
The collapse of SVB bank is the second largest bank collapse in US history. It’s stock price lost 90% of its value in less than 48 hours. Most of the depositors and their deposits are uninsured. People are going to lose billions. Just who was in charge of this place?
The CFO was Joseph Gentile. He was the CFO of Lehman Brothers when they failed.
The Board of Directors is filled with diversity hires who are there because of their woke credentials. They all have pronouns in their bios, which are filled with corporate newspeak. The Head of Financial Risk and Model Risk Management was this nutbag:
This is what happens when you allow people to manage your money based on woke principles instead of on their actual skill and competence. I hope the depositors at this failed bank enjoy all of that diversity, because diversity is your strength, eh?
