The women who threw a severed pig’s head onto the porch of a house that used to belong to the expert witness for the defense in the Chauvin trial have been arrested.
Those are some seriously ugly -er- women. Holy shit. That one in the middle looks like Jerry Seinfeld and Rosie O’Donnell had a love child. Don’t even try to picture what happened the night that Rosie tried to convince Jerry to to let her play the part of Elaine.
Let’s look at a Conservative woman to help clear our palate a bit.
This story says that people with college degrees whose parents also have a college degree make more money than those whose parents don’t have a college degree. It also found that for children without a college degree, it made no difference if their parents had a college degree or not.
Why? My opinion (you knew I would have one)
If a parent has a degree in a field that pays good money, say medicine, law, or STEM, also tends to have children who follow in their footsteps. Examples: I have a degree in the medical field. My son is a nurse practitioner. My uncle has a degree in computer engineering. My cousin got a degree in marine engineering and is on the design team for the Navy’s LCS.
What if a parent doesn’t have a degree? They assume that all college degrees have equal value. They convince the kids that they need to go to college and get a waste of a degree in Leisure studies, music, or Gender Studies. A degree is a degree, right? Example: My wife’s cousin has a degree in outdoor recreation. She is largely jobless and spends all of her time smoking weed and banging Colorado ski instructors. Or you can simply look at every Asian and Jewish family in America and observe that Asian and Jewish mothers consider an education to be a gift from God.
A parent who goes to college and gets a degree in Gender Studies or some other useless major winds up working at a McJob and decides that a degree is worthless. He tells the kid the same thing. Kid doesn’t go to college and winds up in the same company with the same McJob at the same pay as dad.
The more that I think about the covert operations that I posted about here, the more that it bothers me. Whenever one is criticized for courting conspiracy theories, one commonly hears the reasoning “too many people would have to be in on it.” The scandals seem to come along every month or so: the IRS targeting by Obama, US Post Office spying on people, Fast and Furious, and more. When major events happen, say a mass shooting, we often hear that he was “known to law enforcement” but rarely how.
Then we read about this force of 60,000 military and civilian people whose job is to operate right here in the USA, each branch of the military has an intelligence branch, plus the CIA, NSA, DIA, NIA, who along with all of the spooks in the FBI, ATF, and other law enforcement agencies are busy collecting information and intelligence- even though the CIA and the US military are prohibited from operating in the US. Then even all of THAT isn’t enough and they must coopt other companies, as well as the US postal service.
No wonder they felt strong enough to steal the election.
This is the EXACT thing that the founders wanted to prevent when they prohibited a standing army in the Constitution. Trump wanted to drain the swamp. It turns out it wasn’t a swamp, it was a tsunami. The US has a shadow army, completely free of Congressional oversight, completely unaccountable to the citizens of the United States. This doesn’t look good for freedom, democracy, or the rule of law.
This video is worth a few minutes of your time
If it wasn’t for the fact that I believe the BLM/Antifa protests will end with a Federal police force that is even more authoritarian than the one we have now, videos like this would make me happy to see the police getting into hot water.
This is a situation that the police have created for themselves.
It turns out that the shooting that I posted yesterday was perhaps an example of sudden Jihadi Syndrome. It turns out the shooter’s name is …
A cop is fired and arrested for falsifying evidence. This is why I am opposed to the death penalty. Anyone who has been arrested by this cop needs to demand a new trial, or demand that his charges be dropped.
Just a few bad apples, though. Don’t think Federal cops would do any better. This is why the founders wanted government small and weak.
My post of this afternoon centered around employees feeling like they are owed something, simply because they had been employees for a long time, even if those employees hadn’t done anything to improve themselves for (in some cases) decades. There is a reason for that post.
I was hired into a management position at a hospital. When I was hired, I got a lot of pushback. It seems that the employees of the department who had been there for a long time were upset that someone was brought in from the outside, and felt that the position should have gone to them, because they had been there for a long time. One employee told me that she felt like her 17 years there meant nothing and that I got that promotion simply because “I rode around in a truck for a few years.” I told her that it wasn’t just my time on an ambulance that mattered. It was my certifications, my four college degrees, my years of experience as a supervisor that landed me that position. I advised her that she should take advantage of our employer’s tuition reimbursement program, so she could be more qualified the next time a promotion became available. She quit a week later.
Other employees told me that they felt like our employer should pay more. I listened and went to management, who told me that they won’t pay more unless the employees gain a skill. I went back to my employees with a deal: I would help them learn the material to take an exam to earn a certification pertinent to our job, and if they passed the exam, our employer would give them a 20% raise. The cost of the exam is $200. I was willing to teach them on my own time.
The employees refused, saying that they would only take the class if they were on the clock, and refused to pay for the exam fees out of their own pocket. So to sum it up, they want a raise, more training, more certifications, and they want their employer to pay for it all. Why would any employer do all of that? It makes no economic sense. It would be cheaper to let you quit and hire more qualified employees.
If employees refuse to make themselves more valuable, how can they expect to make more money?
Another example of a punch to the head being deadly. An altercation escalated into a physical fight, with the teen punching the 52 year old man in the head several times. The man was able to walk out of the room but started to show signs of medical distress minutes later. The man later lost consciousness and was taken to a hospital, where he died a few days later.
The Norwegian Defense force has established an all female special forces unit. Here are the physical requirements for entry: (translated- sorry if wrong)
Minimum physical requirements
2 body lifts (pull ups?)
20 push-ups
35 situps in 2 min
20 back lift
Swim 200 meters (10 meters under water)
Test on course beginning:
Before graduation:
What requirements are there for male special forces?
So the female special forces candidates wouldn’t come close to qualifying for the male version. Even the weighted march is easier, because the women the men must travel 30km to the women’s 7km. Well, what are the requirements for basic troops, men and women?
Note that women who qualify for special forces in Norway would have to complete 2 pull ups, 20 push ups, and 35 sit ups, which would barely be a “passing” grade for men who AREN’T special forces. Compare it to the entry test for the US Army Ranger school:
Every country that permits women lowers the requirements. They have to. This is unfair to the women who go into combat and must face the reality of combat that they are simply not physically prepared for.
If I were the father of the 13 year old girl who was murdered by the 14 year old evil asshole, this picture would be the first exhibit for the defense. I wouldn’t even give a shit if the judge allowed it. I would show it to the jury anyhow.
