This is why I ignore “no guns” signs. I carry wherever I legally can.

Antifa is taking on outlaw biker gangs. They are bringing mace to the fight. I want to remind everyone that the Denver prosecutor has publicly stated that the use of deadly force is appropriate when faced with mace. I wonder if other jurisdictions feel the same way, or if Denver will feel the same way if the right does the same?

I think we all know the answer, but it is entertaining to watch the biker saga unfold.

The left keeps insisting that CRT is not being taught in schools, and is just a Republican talking point. So if this is true, then why is the teachers’ union demanding that Democrats fight the Republicans on it? Why fight for something that isn’t happening?

If, as you say, we are living in a democracy, and your policies are so popular, then why lie about them? If people truly supported your position, you wouldn’t need to lie in order to get those policies enacted.

It isn’t proper to use a gun in order to win an argument over parking. This is not good decision making.

Yesterday, I spoke about my problem with presumptive “no carry” in businesses. Here is one way I could accept it: acknowledge that choices have consequences.

Adopt a legal path for showing that prohibiting patrons from being armed contributed to the crime that followed. Disarm me through policy, and a business is then legally responsible for providing reasonable protection from crime on that property. That includes lockers for securing my weapon, and some means of protection from armed wolves looking to feed on disarmed sheep.

The legal system of no carry (posted or presumptive) allows a business owner to use the force of law to disarm its patrons while at the same time giving them a pass on legal liability when their policy allowed an armed criminal to prey on the unarmed patrons.

The effect of this allows an end run around my constitutional rights.

Parties unknown blew up the Georgia Guidestones at 4 am this morning.

A dozen or so protesters in Maryland block an Interstate highway to protest climate change. A few were arrested, as was this guy, who just wanted to get to the job he was required to go to as a condition of his parole:

Thanks to my governor, a dozen protesters don’t get to veto thousands who want to travel.

This is why I carry cans of pepper spray and tear gas grenades in my truck. Blocking traffic and refusing to allow people to pass is actual coercive force. In Florida, we don’t have to put up with that shit.

This is why I won’t buy an electric pickup (or any electric vehicle): the new electric F-150 only has a 100 mile range when towing.

Part of owning a vehicle of any type, what makes it such an American experience is that owning a vehicle is freedom. Freedom to go where you want. Electric vehicles with 300 miles or less of range take that from you, tethering you to a short distance from your home. The quintessential American road trip will cease to exist if electric cars become the norm. A part of America will die with the automobile.

This guy believes the leftist dogma so much that he wishes his mother would have gotten an abortion. Or does he?

It’s very troubling to me that my entire existence is because my mother didn’t have access to abortion. While it’s a cruel question to ask “Would you rather have been aborted?” The answer, for me, is yes. First of all because if I’d been aborted, I wouldn’t know. I wouldn’t exist. But also, it’s very hard to reconcile your own existence when it comes at the cost of someone else’s human rights.

Then he goes on to take the typical leftist position that anything you say with which they disagree is literally violence:

Children like me grew up in an environment where we’re told we were spared from abortion. We were propagandized into thinking abortion is wrong. I believe that is a form of violence. I don’t pretend to know what the answer is for this generation of children who are going to be a product of forced birth, but in my opinion, adoption isn’t it.

But wait a minute. Something isn’t right here.

My birth certificate has the name of my adoptive parents on it, so I knew nothing about my biological parents until I was a teenager, when I opened a box of paperwork which included non-identifying information about them. The paperwork said I’d been born to a 16-year-old girl.

Then he goes on to say:

When my birth mother had me, she already had four children. It was a bit of a mind f***. My mom had four kids? Why did she give me up?

After meeting my sister, I learned the information I’d had about my parents for all those years wasn’t true. In reality, my biological mother was separating from my alcoholic father and didn’t want a fifth child with him. I would have been conceived sometime before Roe v. Wade, so legal, safe abortion was not available for my mother.

I smell bullshit. A 16 year old girl, pregnant with her fifth child was getting a divorce from her alcoholic husband, so put the fifth child up for adoption because Roe v. Wade hadn’t happened yet? When confronted on this timeline discrepancy, he claims that his adoption documents aren’t accurate.

With a name, a city of residence, and a date of birth, it isn’t hard to look up someone’s history. So I dug into his past and into his social media:

• When he tells his story, he leaves out the part where he committed a felony and was placed in pre-trial diversion in a plea deal to avoid jail. He blames his addiction to drugs and alcohol for his crime.
• He blames all of his problems with drugs and alcohol on the fact that he was adopted.
• He openly supported a self avowed socialist who ran for St Pete city council.
• He claims that adoption is actually slavery, because “white women adopt minority children as a form of ownership” of other humans and they are actually racist.
• His social media is a parade of leftist talking points: COVID vaccines, anti-landlord diatribes, climate change. Then it changed to adoption. Ever since, nearly non stop about his addictions and adoption.
• His social media presence is only a year old.

IMO, he is a criminal bullshit artist, and not even a very good one.

When you want more of something, all you have to do is subsidize it. This woman makes $42,000 a year in food stamps and welfare for her 12 kids. On top of that, she got more than $30,000 in COVID money.

She actually thinks she is saving us money, though:

“I Googled it and it’s about $25,000 for a child to go to public school every year [from K-12.] It’s actually cheaper [for society] if I keep mine home,” she added.

Now she is a grandmother, so now she has bred a third (at least) generation of welfare recipients.
