Government

Don’t get tested

Mississippi says to isolate after testing positive for COVID-19, or face up to 5 years in prison and a fine. They are going to make it a FELONY to not isolate after testing positive. The crime? Failure to obey an order of a health official that involves a fatal disease. This is the same penalty as battery on a LEO or selling small amounts of weed.

Under this order, you can’t have visitors and must lock yourself in a different room of the house from the rest of your family.

Or you could not take a COVID test. If you take a COVID test, what will it change, except to possibly make you a felon? Just don’t take the test.

Also in the same story, the state’s only Level 1 trauma center, the University of Mississippi Medical Center, also announced on Friday that it would require all staff and students to be vaccinated, a reversal from its previous policy that allowed employees and students to choose not to be vaccinated so long as they wore N95 masks.

Refusing to take the test will only work for awhile. Prison times are here for not isolating. Soon, there will be prison time for not vaccinating. The isolation camps are coming.

I won’t be put in a camp, no matter what it is called, or why they want to do it.

Condescension

I’m sitting in the waiting room at the car wash, waiting for my wife’s car to get waxed, and Fox News has a State Department press conference on. Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman was being asked questions after talking more about herself and how hard she was working than about the situation at hand.

One of the reporters, who stated that he had known her professionally for quite some time, remarked that calling her “Madame Deputy Secretary” was quite a mouthful.

This government bureaucrat responded with “You’ll get used to it.”

That struck me as one of the most conceited, condescending remarks I’ve ever heard. The first response I had is probably why I can’t be a politician: “Fuck you, lady. Who the fuck do you think you are? We are sitting here discussing YOUR failures. Why don’t we worry more about that than we do about whatever title you want to be called?”

Edited to add:

Here is the video of the exchange.

NFAC has a body count

The terrorist organization called the “Not Fucking Around Coalition” or NFAC, now has a body count. A police officer who was shot by one of its members on June 23 has died of his injuries. The member who did the shooting has a long, violent criminal history. He was fairly well indoctrinated by the black community justice industry.

The criminal charges for this critter have been increased to first degree murder. I’m usually against the death penalty because I don’t believe that we can trust the government to prosecute a case honestly and without shenanigans. In this case, however, it looks pretty cut and dried. Looking at his extensive history, I don’t think he is redeemable. Fry his ass. Better yet, let Biden send his ass to Afghanistan.

War for our kids

As many in the press try to downplay the Taliban’s atrocities, some stories of the horrors that are being carried out are leaking out of Afghanistan.

Americans on the left began showing their stupidity almost immediately:

Meanwhile, stories of forced marriages and executions continue to come out of the country. Those who live in the Capitol are facing searches, checkpoints, and beatings.

This is what happens when a war becomes not just about power, but involves tribal and religious implications. This could easily be our future here in the US: A victorious left, taking your children to be a part of their sexual fantasy. Don’t think that’s possible?

As a teacher, I was often provided with pro-homosexuality teaching materials with instructions to “push” this on children. I refused. Here is one of the handouts I was given, with instructions to deliver lessons on homosexuality to kids. Note that there are resources on there for K-5 children. They are trying to sex up your kids, even at 6 years old!

We are in the middle of a war, a revolution. This is just one of the things that the victors want.

I know that this makes me sound like a raving lunatic. You don’t have to take my word for it- click on the links above. Read the handout that I embedded above. Visit the websites on it.

We are in a fight, not only for the survival of this nation, but for the very souls of our children.

I already knew

I read about a school shooting in a New Mexico middle school. One 13 year old student shot another. As soon as the name of the school was mentioned, I knew what I would find. I also knew that an NRA member as unlikely to be involved.

The middle school was Washington Middle School. That school has 442 students enrolled, with 410 of them receiving free lunch. Eighty seven percent of the student body is reading below their grade level. Ninety percent of US schools are better than this one in reading and math. One in eight households are single parent households.

To get those absolutely horrid results, taxpayers are paying more than $11,300 per student each year. I would say that this money is being wasted.

On second thought

In an earlier post, I thought that counterfeit vaccine cards were the way to go. It turns out that I was wrong.

The FBI is going after counterfeit cards using 18 USC 1017. Here is what the law says:

Whoever fraudulently or wrongfully affixes or impresses the seal of any department or agency of the United States, to or upon any certificate, instrument, commission, document, or paper or with knowledge of its fraudulent character, with wrongful or fraudulent intent, uses, buys, procures, sells, or transfers to another any such certificate, instrument, commission, document, or paper, to which or upon which said seal has been so fraudulently affixed or impressed, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

18USC1017

If you use an appropriated card that has the CDC seal on it before you get it, it seems to me that you are not the one who affixed or impressed the seal on the document. It doesn’t matter, of course. They will try to chuck you in prison. It is up to each person to decide for themselves if it is better to let them inject you, be a pariah, or risk prison.

No savings

This editorial talks about the costs of a miles driven tax versus a fuel tax. If I have learned anything about taxes and government in my time on Earth, it is this: A miles driven tax will not be *instead* of a fuel tax, it will be *in addition* to a fuel tax.

So using the writer’s numbers, a truck driver will go from paying $1,582 a year to $2,685a year, a cost that will be passed on in other ways.

Likewise, your average car owner will see their tax burden go from $306 to $1,359.

Like Reagan said: tax and spend.
