A college admissions officer is surprised to learn that more minorities get into college when the only factors that matter are inflated grades and the color of your skin.

Illegal Search
My wife and I recently had a date night. One of the places we went was to the Amway center to see comedian Gabriel Iglesias. When we entered the arena, we had to pass through magnetometers. I believe that this is illegal. Let me explain:
The Amway center is owned by the City of Orlando. They prohibit all weapons using this rule:
Although by state law, the City cannot regulate the admission of patrons with weapons, the vast majority of private event promoters who use the Amway Center do not allow patrons with weapons to be admitted to their events.
Every event that I have attended there has used those magnetometers. I sure would be interested in seeing the process for this. I am betting that there is a ‘standard contract’ that is signed that allows the city to hide behind this legal figleaf of claiming it is what the promoters want. Something like “sign here, this is our standard contract” and the contract has a clause in it that says “I promise not to allow anyone with weapons into my event.”
Why? Because Orlando is run by that fucking left wing asshole Buddy Dyer, who hasn’t seen a restriction on gun ownership that he doesn’t like. He has openly stated that he wants all guns to be illegal within the City of Orlando.
I also want to remind everyone that it is not illegal to enter this facility with a weapon. It is only illegal if they discover that you have a weapon, then ask you to leave, and you refuse. So I roll the dice and try anyway. Let’s just say that it is indeed possible to enter the Amway arena with weapons (plural) and not get caught.

Liberals on Rittenhouse
A liberal who admits that he didn’t watch a single moment of the trial, and who admits that he knows nothing about criminal law, is full of opinions on the Rittenhouse case, and claims that it sets a bad precedent: That anyone can pick up a gun and declare that they can go a “police a protest.”
He goes on to claim that this is an assault on free speech, because people will be intimidated because people can “show up with a gun” to stifle protests.
He claims that a person shows up to a protest with a gun is guilty of manslaughter, because a reasonable person should know that “something bad can happen” as a result.

Washington residents sue the Navy to stop SEALs from training in state parks, because the thought of men armed with guns watching them from behind trees is too scary to think about.
It isn’t like Washington is part of the US anymore, so perhaps soon those will be actual combat missions.

Conversation
JKB over at GunFreezone posts about lefties who want to have “an honest, tough conversation about race.” You’re kidding me, right? It seems like that’s all we ever do is talk about race. I’ve been posting the inconvenient facts for well over a decade.
OK. Let’s start here:
- Blacks are 13% of the population, but commit 43 to 53 percent of the murders (due to year to year variation)
- Of the nearly 770,000 violent interracial crimes committed every year involving blacks and whites, blacks commit 85 percent and whites commit 15 percent.
- When a black person is the perpetrator, forty-five percent of their victims are white, 43 percent are black, and 10 percent are Hispanic.
- When whites commit violent crime, only three percent of their victims are black.
- Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.
- Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites than vice versa.
- In San Francisco, Blacks are the perpetrators of 85% of ALL violent assaults, and Asians are the victims.
- Black women are 3 times more likely to be unwed teen mothers than other races, 4 times more likely to commit murder, deal drugs, become prostitutes, or be murdered than any other race.
- Asians are only 4% of the population, but make up 20% of the student body in Ivy League schools.
A recent shooting in an Orlando area high school is a perfect illustration. An 18 year old student’s father wants him to be a football star. He gets shot because reasons by a 16 year old student who attends the same high school. Both are black.
Now you think that I am going to talk about the shooting. Nope. One black teen shooting another is so commonplace, it’s become cliché. No, I am going to talk about the McIntyre’s father pushing him to be a football player. See, according to MaxPreps, the kid only played for one season. He is 18 years old, and still only has enough credits to be a junior. He should be graduating this year, but has failed too many classes to do so.
As an 18 year old, fifth year senior with only 4 solo tackles and 5 games played, he is a bench warmer. His father hasn’t made him value education, and has settled on the last refuge of a failed high school career- “I’m gonna be a sports star.” The truth here is that he isn’t going to be a sports anything. At 18 years old, he has already become a cliché. He didn’t attend school, tried playing football for a month or two, and is now facing a life of poverty, minimum wage, and joblessness. He is more likely to spend his life in jail than he is to earn an above average salary. Because of all of this, he will blame police, white people’s privilege, gun violence, and everything else OTHER than his own actions.
In the eight years that I was a teacher, I can’t tell you how many young men, especially black men, told me that they were going to be sports stars. Hundreds. My wife has been a teacher for 18 years. She has seen thousands make the same claim. In all of that time, we have seen exactly five of them make it past the high school level and into a division 1 sports program. Only one has made the pros.
- One of them was a D1 girls’ volleyball player.
- One was a D1 baseball player. He never started college because he was shot in the leg by his drunken father two weeks before high school graduation, ending his baseball career before high school was even over.
- One of them was given a full ride D1 college football scholarship, but was arrested for selling drugs over the summer before he left for college, thus ending his college football hopes.
- One of them actually graduated from a major university after playing football on a college scholarship. He didn’t make the NFL.
- One student actually went to a major league team.
One student out of the thousands of students. Your odds of getting a good job are better if you go to school and learn a trade. Don’t expect that you can skip school, get nothing but failing grades, then play a sport for a few weeks and become a millionaire. That almost NEVER happens.
Blacks need to stop using and selling drugs, stop impregnating their young women before walking out on them, they need to stay in school. Stop calling the few blacks who DO become successful “Oreo”, “Uncle Tom”, or “Carlton” and encourage success in a profession other than Rapper, Athlete, or Drug Dealer.
You aren’t going to do that by demanding that the police be defunded. You can’t do it at the point of a gun, nor while a member of a street gang.
How is that for an honest, tough discussion?

The left complains that Trump allowed media commentators like Sean Hannity to call him up and voice their opinion on matters of state.
Then they celebrate when Obama puts two bit actors on his staff. Then they ignore the fact that the Biden administration has staff members and members of the press freely circulate in and out of the White House.

SCOTUS Incenses Left
This morning’s article in Slate illustrates just how pissed off the left is over the SCOTUS decision to strike down Biden’s vaccine mandate. Here is why they are pissed:
COVID is undoubtedly a “grave danger” and a “new hazard” to workers, this broad language is not enough, because it does not “plainly authorize” the mandate. Why not?
A grave danger? For people under 60 years old, there is less than a 0.1% fatality rate. It certainly isn’t a “new hazard.” COVID first came about in February 2020, but the vaccine mandate wasn’t enacted until November 2021, nearly two years later.
Congress is the country’s legislative body. Had congress wanted there to be a vaccine mandate, they would have passed one by now. In fact, the majority of the Senate voted AGAINST mandating a vaccine. When the legislature specifically rejects passing a law, it isn’t the prerogative of the executive to simply ignore the will of that legislature and issue edicts. That isn’t how the “democracy” that Biden claims to be defending works.
The Biden administration even admitted that his edict was a “workaround” of the will of congress.
Don’t even get me started on the mental gymnastics that SCOTUS will go through to approve a leftist wishlist. Remember the Obamacare fine that wasn’t a fine? That partisan moron Sotomayor denied that the vaccine mandate was actually a mandate, because workers had the option of weekly testing instead.

Antifa Intel Report
Several days ago, I posted about an active cell of Antifa operating in and around the Tampa Bay area of Florida. I have been doing some research and as much of a threat assessment of this as I can. I would have posted sooner on this, but I had several employees get COVID and have just worked a pair of 16 hour days covering their shifts. This is the first chance I’ve had to sit down and write this all out.
When the guy was caught, he had a checklist in his possession. The list itself shows that someone is training these guys to be good little insurgents. Read it for yourself, and you can see that they are being taught how to do this.
This also gives you an idea of the basic load carried by these guys. Note that they do not (yet) have firearms on the list, but as you will see below, many people in this group DO carry weapons as well as firearms.
Using this list and news articles on the arrestee, I was able to find quite a bit of information.
Here is the intel that I have on the cell he was operating with:
Command, Control, Communications
The particular unit he seems to have been affiliated with is the Florida Youth Liberation Front. The Front claims to have chapters in Oregon, Washington, California, Florida, Tennessee, Missouri, Illinois, New York, and Washington, DC, as well as in Canada. The Washington state version of the Front is known to have been around since 2018. The Florida chapter was formed in 2020.
They appear to be centrally controlled at the national level, and the different chapters coordinate their actions. The Portland chapter provides training for members of other chapters.
Their online presence is hosted by noblogs.org. This webpage is set up for insurgent groups. This platform caters to far-left causes, stating that it exists for the purpose of “connecting radical people.”
They use the crowdfunding platform GiveButter to collect donations. They use the messaging app Telegram to communicate, and include instructions on how to setup an anonymous account on their blog. Email is handled through riseup.net.
Their Twitter feed is not open to the public, but Twitter seems to have no problem allowing a group that advocates for violence, as long as that group is on the left.
One common theme I found on every site is the desire for the violent overthrow of government. I don’t understand how these guys’ meetings aren’t attended by a dozen cops. Every other criminal enterprise in the nation has been infiltrated to the point where they have more cops than real members, but these guys? This HAS to indicate some kind of government support. Reading the group’s website, and especially their “ezine” is fairly instructive.
Organization
The Front is broken down into smaller “affinity groups,” who operate at the local level. These groups participate in sabotage, vandalism, and other violent acts, which they call “direct actions.” This is a classic cell structure that has proven to be quite effective.
Other Antifa-affiliated groups claim they are not connected to YLF, but other left-wing extremist groups have shared the Front’s propaganda on social media, and YLF shares their propaganda and event announcements. The wording, images, and tactics are similar enough to indicate a common controlling entity at some level.
Violent Actions
The Front explicitly discourages peaceful protest. In June 2020, the Front advised protesters that they “can never be peaceful” if it means complying with police demands. Journalist Andy Ngo says that the Front “openly advocate[s] for violent uprisings.” In his testimony to Congress in August 2020, he identified YLF as the organizers of riots in Portland and other cities during the summer of 2020.
Their members are known to frequently carry loaded firearms, as well as use destructive devices such as Molotov cocktails, as well as commercial fireworks, which they sometimes modify into antipersonnel IEDs by wrapping them in duct tape and nails.
The Front is known to have carried out several violent acts:
- They instructed rioters in Portland to target private property and called for “death to America.” CSP said that multiple store fronts and a Catholic church were vandalized in riot that followed the Front’s statements.
- The group took credit on Twitter for the firebombing of an Oregon police officer’s home in November of 2020. Twitter declared that the tweet did not violate their community standards against the glorification of violence.
Other Actions
The Front recently sued Andy Ngo for “stealing” their comments and photos. They dropped the suit when it was pointed out that Ngo was covered by “fair use.”
What is the threat?
It would be fairly easy to dismiss this group as a bunch of 20 something soyboy cucks who are cosplaying the revolutionary role while still living at home with mom and dad. That would be a mistake. While it is accurate that they are a bunch of man-children who still live at home and have no real career, this group is much more than that.
They have organization, a decent command and control network, funding enough for travel, attorneys, equipment, and an extensive propaganda network. Their members are motivated and becoming better equipped and trained by the minute.
Judge them by the fact that they are brazen and have no problem breaking the law. They have little to lose, and are out there carrying out violent attacks while the government sits on its hands, and those of us on the right largely sit around and complain on the Internet. Those on the right who DO stand up and say something are declared to be the terrorists and wind up being tortured for over a year in Federal prison, without trial and without bail.
They are dangerous and effective by the only metric that matters: they are succeeding, especially in Democrat controlled areas.
What can you do?
The best thing that we have going for us in Florida is our governor and our legal climate. So, the best thing we can do is stay right here in Florida.
Next, whenever you are in a crowd, keep a close eye on anyone dressed all in black. Especially if they have a backpack. If you see them making any attempt to place or use a device, remember that it is a forcible felony in Florida to do that. In fact, you should probably review the rules in Florida for deadly force in riot situations, found on this very site.
Be prepared to GTFO to a safe location. Be armed.
Use your head. Now that you have seen how people at the J6 event were treated, you can see where this is going.

American Airlines and Delta are scrapping the requirement that their pilots have a 4 year degree, because requiring people to be educated is racist or something.
Remember what happened last time major airlines were flown by pilots without degrees.
