Left= Racism

Colleges, who if you remember are controlled by the left, are united in their hatred of Asians. They have proven it by filing a court briefing with SCOTUS that is supportive of discriminating against Asians.

They are even angry that an Asian used a literal “white privilege card” to get out of a traffic ticket in Alaska. As if we would be taken in by that. We all know that you have to be white to use that card.

Florida number 1

The reason why more people want to live in Florida than any other state? We are free here to do what we like. Why is that?

Ron DeSantis.

Speaking of the Governor, on Friday he named a new Justice to the State Supreme court. She is a member of the Federalist Society. Did I mention that she is a Black Woman from Jamaica? That makes it pretty hard for the left to attack her without losing their “we love minorities” status.

Walt Disney Posthumously Canceled

Disney isn’t woke enough for the empire he founded. They are removing mentions of him from theme parks. I will let Orwell say it for me:

Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

Tyranny

More details have come out in the Mayor of Orlando’s plan to act like the little Leftist tyrant that he is.

Because of a threat of lawsuits, Orlando has announced that anyone with a concealed weapons permit will be permitted to enter the so-called security zone that the city is establishing on Friday and Saturday nights. I am sure, however, that you will be closely watched to see if you and your armed, permitted ass enter any bars, where you will promptly be arrested for violating the terms of your permit.

You will also note that just in case anyone sues under Florida’s law, which allows a citizen to sue any government official that violates the state’s preemption law, they are using private, armed security guards to enforce the zone.

I do wonder just what the legalities are here. I mean, it is illegal to lie to cops. What authority do security guards have to tell you that you aren’t allowed to walk down a public street? How can the compel you to submit to a search? I wonder what other legal issues there are here. Can they use force to prevent you from walking down the street? Can you sue them for violating your civil rights, or does that only apply to the cops? What legalities are there?

Not News

So the press is now surprised that UPS employees are stealing firearms shipments? We in the gun culture have known that for years.

About 15 years ago, I was an IDPA competitor. In those days, I was shooting black stainless Sig 229’s of the 357Sig persuasion in competition. It was pretty common for me to send them to the Sig performance center to get work done. Because of employee theft, UPS had a requirement that all handguns had to be sent overnight and insured. This was way too expensive at more than $200 per handgun.

Now I didn’t think that I should be forced to pay more to UPS because UPS couldn’t keep their employees from stealing. The law said that those who shipped firearms via common carrier had to notify the carrier of the contents of the shipment. So I would always list the contents as “Sig Sauer Model 229” and ship it standard and insured. It cost less than $30 and still complied with the law.

What Election?

Before I get to the point of this post, let me set up a bit of groundwork:

So now that we have the facts out of the way, the point of this post.

We are now less than 3 months away from the midterm elections. The Democrats are on a path to economic and political disaster and it is killing them in the polls. Biden’s approval rating is a dismal -16.3. The number of people who disapprove of him is nearly double the number who approve. Trump’s approval is -15.1.

It isn’t any better for the rest of the field. The Republicans have a 72% chance of winning a majority in the house.

So with all of that going on, why are the Democrats continuing down what is obviously a self destructive path? Why do they continue making decisions that are obviously unpopular with the voters?

I can only come up with one logical answer: The polls don’t matter. Their popularity doesn’t matter.

They know that they can’t lose. The fix is in. There is no other explanation that fits the facts.
