Don’t underestimate how Republican political infighting can allow the stupid party to step on their dicks during the worst public confidence crisis for the Democrat party since the burning of Atlanta.

COVID Death Lies
Massachusetts is now admitting that they overstated the number of COVID deaths because they were counting everyone who died within 60 days of receiving a positive COVID test result as having died from COVID, even if they actually died from, say, a car accident.
By cutting the criteria from 60 days to 30 days, the number of Massachusetts COVID deaths was reduced from 23,000 to 19,300- that’s a 16% reduction. If they changed the criteria to require that people who die are only counted as COVID deaths if they actually died of COVID, that could reduce the number of COVID deaths by at least a third!
This is just another data point that reinforces the idea that all of the so called “conspiracy theories” and falsehoods that we were being villified for were correct all along. I wonder when we will finally be able to verify that the 2020 election was faked as well.

Another Record Month
February inflation rose 7.9 percent year over year. Expect March to be even worse, seeing as how gasoline increased by over 20% in one week.

Our Child, Not Just Yours
A father was denied access by his wife to the delivery room for the birth of his own child, so instead of sitting around in the waiting room, he went home. The wife is now angry about it and is refusing to even speak to him. I agree. There is a high likelihood that I would instead have gone to a divorce attorney.
There are many women who do this- they act as if the child is theirs and theirs alone, until it comes time to pay the bills, then all of a sudden its OUR child. The whole statement of “it’s the decision she has made and you have to respect that” is bullshit. This is just another example of the war on heterosexual men.
There are hospitals that don’t give anyone a choice– no one is allowed in the delivery room except the mother.
The courts have backed this sort of behavior- on the one hand, the courts have said that mothers can ban fathers from the delivery room, but when it comes time for child support, then it is “pay up, buddy. Didn’t you know that it takes two to have a child?”
Here is my answer- you want the hospital bill paid? The person in the delivery room is the one paying it. That wasn’t me in there, so that isn’t my problem.

That Was a Waste of Time
It turns out that Canadian truckers have more balls than US truckers. All the US convoy did was drive around for a couple of hours, then called it quits.

Two Justice Systems
I was going to post on this later in the week, but JKB over at Gunfreezone beat me to it, albeit from a different angle. A Dunkin’ employee killed someone because that person called him the so-called “n word.”
In this case, the 77 year old white man received a sentence of death for daring to use that sort of language. The 27 year old black man, so threatened by the use of an unkind word, committed a battery upon the elderly citizen. That’s right, an old man received a death sentence for using mean words. I want to mention that the article also revealed that the 77 year old victim was a convicted sex offender. Since the killer had no way of knowing that, I don’t think it was germane to the story.
For this crime, the black man was permitted to plea to felony battery. OK, I am on board with this, so far. The death was an unintentional side effect of a young, fit man punching an old man. Here is where the justice system fails:
The sentence in the case was for 200 hours of community service and two years of house arrest. He will have to stay at home, unless he is at work or church. The prosecutor had this to say:
“Two of the primary factors were the aggressive approach the victim took toward the defendant and everyone working with the defendant, and that the victim repeatedly used possibly the most aggressive and offensive term in the English language,” Kamm told the newspaper.
We constantly hear about so called “white privilege.” Now name one thing that a black man can say that will allow a white man to kill him. Contrast this with the Kyle Rittenhouse case, or the George Zimmerman case. In both of those cases, the one who did the killing was engaged in self defense from an actual attack instead of meting out punishment for the mere use of a word.
You know, the word that is used every day by rappers and other assorted “people of color.” However, if this “magic word” is uttered a single time by a white person, it can be used as an excuse for anything that a black person does for him, even if the word was uttered decades ago and the black person didn’t even hear the white person say the word.
There are now two justice systems in this country. One for straight, white males, and one for everyone else. Yes, Vonelle Cook was a sex offender with multiple convictions for having sex with 15 and 16 year old children, so I don’t mourn his passing. At the same time, the killer in this case wasn’t aware of that, so I don’t see that it was at all pertinent to what happened here. Nope, Vonelle Cook proved that you can be cancelled for using the wrong word.

Pop Smoke
These are the best smoke grenades that you can buy without a fireworks license. I have a bunch of them. I popped one off in front of the house, and you couldn’t see a thing along the entire street. I couldn’t even see the house across the street. My neighbor down the road was pissed because the thought a house was on fire. Dumbass should have known that bright red smoke wasn’t from a fire.
Anyway, these things are awesome.
As usual, when I recommend a product or vendor, I will remind everyone that I receive no compensation for any of the products mentioned on this page, and that I have no relationship with the vendor other than being a customer. All prices paid are the same available to anyone else in the public.

Military Callbacks
I’m hearing from some military friends that the military is calling separated cryptography technicians back into active duty. I wonder if the military cares whether or not those called have received the jab.
Duty, Honor, Sacrifice
Brave Cop
If you read here, you know that I levy my share of both criticism and praise at police officers. In this case, I want to share the bravery and sacrifice that this Florida State Trooper made in protecting a group of pedestrians from a drunk driver when she deliberately placed her patrol vehicle between a group of runners and a DUI driver who was refusing to stop:
Man, that had to hurt. If you look at the roofline of her SUV, you can see that the entire vehicle is bent.
That took some real bravery and self sacrifice.
