Sick, sick, sick, sick, sick
We need to stop perversion.
Sick, sick, sick, sick, sick.

 

Crime

What do Minneapolis, Atlanta, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle, Philadelphia, Dallas and New York City all have in common?  There are actually three things: They are all run by Democrats, they have all had their crime rates raised by 100% and they all have proposals to defund and get rid of the police.

This is a real problem for the Left. Shootings are up 80% including the killings of children. Robberies are up 120%. And there is not a cop around to deal with it. Heck, New York’s murder rate is above 240%! And they are still letting violent criminals, even ones that assault cops, get out with no bail hours after being arrested. Why not commit crimes? New York City has gotten rid of their plain clothes police force and cut $1.5 billion from the police force. Los Angeles cut $150 million from their police force. Minneapolis has voted to completely defund the police. Philly has a 5-year plan to eliminate the police.

Why is crime going up? I don’t know. Maybe it has something to do with do-nothing Leftist leaders supporting rioters and thugs over the police and innocent citizens. Maybe having no-cash bail and releasing criminals has something to do with it. How about cutting funds from your police force and disbanding the undercover police force that is responsible for capturing criminals while they are committing crimes?

Well, the Left has some ideas. Listen to AoC, the brain trust of the Left:

This idiot is blaming:

  • Poverty
  • Fear of homelessness.
  • Starvation.
  • The government not being fast enough to give them free money

 

Wow, ok.

But there is more! Bill DeBlasio blames COVID-19. Sheila Jackson Lee blames the lack of gun control. Good luck with that one. A group of the Left blames the police…get this one…for not doing anything. Oh, yeah, and racism.

Here’s the problem with the Left blaming everything and everyone besides their shitty policies. And when one tries to blame race and it turns out that most murders are within the same race, they need to shotgun a bunch of excuses and hope something sticks.

This is why I like Trump. He says, “this is fucked up,” then “this is how we are going to unfuck it,” and he unfucks it.

I do not know when people are going to learn. The Left only cares about talking points and narratives. And it is only to trick the people so that they give them power. And, when they have power, that real concern about the people will disappear. Hell you see it now. Look at Los Angeles.

I Knew We’d Get to this Point

Introduction

Ten or fifteen years ago, there was this push by the LGB community to legalize marriage between gay people. In California, there was a law that we got to vote on that would define marriage between a man and a woman. Now, I was younger and dumber and had some misdirected issues with gays getting married. So, of course, I voted for the proposition (it was Prop 8).

Of course, I live in California where voting for state and local laws is really irrelevant (I don’t even bother voting in California anymore). Prop 8 passed by a huge margin, the governor said it was unconstitutional, the 9th circuit court of appeals overrules the vote and the Supreme Court legalized gay marriage a few years later. So much for voting.

But, over the years, I wondered what my reasons were for being against gay marriage. I came of with the following reasons:

  • I don’t like gays.
  • It’s against my Catholic faith.
  • Homosexuality is not natural and should not be supported by the government

 

That was it. Upon careful introspection, these three reasons were not only not true when compared to me belief system, but one went against my belief system.

  • I never disliked gays. In fact, during a debate, I was hurt when my friend told me she would not invite me to her wedding with her partner.
  • My religion really  was not an issue. I could not quote anything from the Bible and gays would not be married in the church, mosques and temples of the major religions, which made them only a civil union.
  • And, the hypocritical belief that I am embarrassed by, the government should not be telling anyone what they can and cannot do. It is wrong.

 

Normal and natural are two totally different things. Homosexual men will never have children unless a woman is involved. That is because homosexual men cannot have babies because it is unnatural. Period. Normal is saying that one can be attracted to his own sex and it is what it is. Period. A civil union between two  is not going to change what is natural.

But, my third point violates my true belief: the government should not tell people what the can and cannot do. I was actually being a dick to my own beliefs by saying no to the gay person to marry who he wanted to marry. Needless to say, being a hypocrite did not sit well with me.

  • I thought about it and realized it was not that I was against gay marriage. It was that I was against the militancy of the LGBT. And I still am and they are getting worse. But I will not condemn those who like members of their same sex. I will support them because I believe the spirit of the Constitution assumes that individual freedom. I know that is not exactly a textualist view but a Libertarian view.
  • Instead, I will focus on on the LGBTQ+ militancy and the topics that really bother me.

 

War on Religion

A few years ago, when the Supreme Court ruled that banning gay marriage was unconstitutional, I believe is was Justice Scalia that asked the pro-gay marriage lawyer if this was going to lead to forcing religions to marry gay couples. He responded that he did not know. In other words, yes. That is exactly what they are going to do and have been doing.

By the way, attacking religion is a strategy of the Left, not necessarily an LGBT thing. The Left hates religion.

The militancy I hate the most is the attack on regular people who own businesses and just want to live by their lives based on their values and faith. This attack, and not the only one, game against the baker Jack Phillips in Colorado. He runs wedding cake business. When he was approached by a gay couple to bake a cake, he refused but said they could buy one of his pre-made cakes. This poor bastard fought the court system, almost losing his business, for three years. He finally won in the Supreme Court.

This is the shit I hate. This is completely unnecessary and the media lied about it. The media never mentioned that Phillips would sell them a cake just not customize a cake. They made him out into a 100% bigot.

They did the same to VP Mike Pence especially that little rat Pete Buttigieg. Pence and his family is a fundamental Christian. He does not believe in gay marriage but never made a thing of it (that I have ever heard of). But the attacks on him by the LGBT and Buttigieg has been brutal. They attacked his wife because she works at a fundamental Christian school and require their teachers follow a specific moral lifestyle.

But their goal is to get religion banned. Choke them out financially. They want religion to lose their tax exemption status. This is wrong. All this is wrong.

They have to ban religion. Because religion will never promote what the LGBT really wants.

 

The War on Nature

There seems to be some confusion on nature versus normal. Just because it is normal does not make something natural. The reason the Bible says that “a man shall not lay with another man” is not because the writers of the Bible are gay hating bigots. It is because the purpose of procreation in to have children. It is the same reason the Bible said we should not eat pork and horse and men should be circumcised. It was a health (though bacon is good and women like men circumcised).

Gay men and women cannot have children. Period. Darwin, who the Left always trots out to dismiss religion, has proven. That survival of the fittest thing is about the species that can procreate and produce a bunch of kids. The Left, obviously, has stopped referring to Darwin because, I suspect, he disproves their point.

 

War on Science

It is not just a war in science but also a war on language.

Let us take a look at the growth of this movement. It used to the the LGB. Then it went to LGBT. Then it went to the LGBTQ. Now it is called the LGBTQ+. Probably because no one would be able to remember what they are called if the added the other 64 pronouns they are trying to get called.

The LGBTQ+ is trying to create language by changing the definition of sex and gender. They want one to believe that gender and sex are fluid. We are not male and female but we can be what we want to be which is complete crap. If you are a man that likes other men, you are still a man. But not so for them. We need to use other pronouns or fear insulting someone.

The big example is by changing the pronoun he or she to they. If I am bisexual or what ever, you should call me “they” and not “he”. This is the great lie. This is something that we cannot tolerate. It is dangerous to tolerate it.

What the LGBTQ are doing now is trying to change science through the acceptance of their manipulated language. Today they say that a man who says he is a woman is a woman. And more than one person has said it is scientifically proven. How? Because we call him “her” and that is acceptable in society. So it must be true. We are seeing this now.

Men who say they are women have asked the American Medical Association to treat those men as if they are women. There will be lawsuits over this. Men who say they are women want to compete in women’s sports. There is a lawsuit in Connecticut that is fighting to stop transsexual women from competing is in school sports. The judge in that case said that the plaintiff could not refer to the defendants of men because it was scientifically proven that men can be women. 

This is wrong. This is sick. This is an abomination. This is a lie!

If someone wants to mutilate his genitals and call himself a woman, fine. He has the freedom to do that. I will even call him a her out of respect. But when a group of people say that I am a bigot, want me to lose my job and livelihood or even put in legal trouble because I will believe a man is a man and a woman is a woman, that is where I have an issue. I will not do that. The reason is simple: things can get worse and I do believe that we would end up normalizing perversion. Real perversion.

 

Embrace of Perversion

If you are older like me, you will remember that one was looked down on as a gay person. It was weird, perverse. Why would anyone want to do things like that to someone of their own sex. But, the reality is, homosexuality has been around forever so it is not that bazaar. J. Edgar Hoover was gay and rumored to be a transvestite in the 50s and 60s. This seemed to be an open secret. Dean Martin was gay. The guy from The Brady Bunh was gay.

Other historical figures include

  • Socrates
  • Alexander the Great
  • Leonardo Di Vinci
  • Michelangelo
  • Sally Ride
  • The Wachowski brothers
  • Oscar Wilde
  • Just to name a few.

 

So homosexuality has never been something unheard of in our society. I will even go so far as to say gay marriage probably had its movement started in the 60s and 70s. But we always feared that when you give a mouse a cookie, the mouse will want a glass of milk. That is what is happening.

The American Psychological Society took out the mental illness called Gender Dysphoria Disorder for the DSM-5, the medical encyclopedia for psychologists. This has changed the scene for potential transgenders and opened up a whole new form of perversion I never thought I would see in my lifetime. This has also changed our laws and procedures for changing one’s sex.

  • Laws are now in place that eliminate counseling for transgender candidates. This is a one way ticket folks and doctors want to make sure the potential patients know this. They also have eliminated the ability for psychologists and counselors to perform conversion therapies. Though I thought these could be a little extreme, there were people who appreciated them. A lot of the people just ended up happily gay but kept their stuff. That’s kind of important. This is because most people who have sex change operations typically commit suicide.
  • Today, boys who have not reached puberty are being encouraged to have hormone therapy in preparation for a sex change operation. There is a case in Texas where a woke mother wants to give hormone therapy and an eventual sex change operation to her nine year old son.

 

Sexualizing our kids is becoming a thing. Desmond the Amazing, a transsexual, transvestite 11-year-old has done a sex dance at a gay bar while having dollar bills tossed at him. Do not believe me? Look it up on YouTube! For some reason, YouTube will not block this.

Perversion is becoming mainstream. Listen to Don Lemon, who is a gay black man married to a gay white man, talk about pedophilia:

  • Wow!

 

The television show, South Park, had an episode called NAMBLA. NAMBLA stands for North American Man Boy Love Association. I looked this group up and it does exist. They say that they are an organization that believes that men who want to have sex with male children is normal. They actually have guides to groom and have sex with young boys and not get caught by the police. They wanted to be part of the LGBTQ+. Supposedly, they were rejected, but who knows what the “+” means. Could they be mainstream soon?

There is a man in Virginia who is suing to make incest legal. INCEST!! Remember that the governor of Virginia believes that babies who are born are not babies and can be killed. Could incest be mainstream.

The answer is “yes”. This is exactly why I was against gay marriage. Give a mouse a cookie and it will want a glass of milk. I am going to buy that book and read it everyday because it is so true. Perversion is something that should ever be accepted but, because we did not have the guts to deal with it at the get go, it is not going beyond anything we could ever imagine.

Life Imitating Art

I finished a book last week, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. The book was published in 1932. The book is about a stranger walking into a government-controlled “utopia”. That world is about the collective over the self. Life for the people is simple. There are no more births, all children are raised in test tubes and genetically engineered to the role they are going to play in life. Everything they see and hear is controlled, their careers are chosen for them and their social status is chosen. Materialism and pleasure is Moral “truths” are “conditioned” (indoctrinated) as the child grows into adulthood.

It is a sterile world. The people in this world have only three things to do: buy stuff, achieve pleasure in any way possible and work.

The parallels in the book are amazing. Basically it is our society prophesied one hundred years ago. Even the legalization of drugs today was foretold in the book. It is so amazing that I am going to write a separate post about it in the future.

But there are three stories I read this week that triggered (in a good way) this blog post. But I will need to discuss the book first so that I can put the articles I read into context and show the parallels.

In Brave New World, Huxley puts an emphasis on pleasure. The reason is because there is no satisfaction in this society. One’s roles and societal standing is defined before children were “hatched”. So the totalitarian government encourage rampant and unfettered sex between the citizens to keep them satisfied. A man will literally walk to a woman and ask for sex and he will get it. The government also mandated orgies twice a week. There were no true relationships and there were no limits.

Even children, who were taught that unrestricted sexual freedom was a good thing. Though pedophilia was not a thing in the book, the children learned about sex through games like “hunt-the-zipper”.

Perversion is accepted and encouraged. Morality has been redefined with no argument. Indoctrination of the children is the key.

California Does It Again

In 2015, the Healthy Youth Act (AB 329) by Assemblywoman Shirley Weber was introduced and passed into law. The law was meant to update the sex education program of the time to include education on HIV/AIDS and its prevention. The program was also meant to be voluntary.

But it has been expanded. And many don’t like it.

The curriculum includes books like:

The goal of the schools is, not only to teach children what sex is and the process the body goes through as we age, like what I learned in school, but how to actually have sex. These books are so graphic, their subject matter could not be shown on television.

Though these programs are suppose to be strictly voluntary. That seems more to be a guideline than a rule. The reading material is out there and the kids are socializing with each other so the information is spreading and normalizing. As Jonathan Keller, President of the California Family Council, says, “The state of California should not force moms and dads to chose between participating in public school and protecting their children’s innocence. No student needs to be exposed to this graphic and explicit material. It’s child abuse.”

This is disgusting coming from a state that is constantly opening its laws that counter traditional morality. Children do not need to know this before puberty especially for children before the fifth grade. Children don’t even realize there is a difference between between the genders at those ages. Let them be children. Let them keep their innocence. There just is no good reason or benefit.

Teaching the children to knowing all of the “different” genders is also ridiculous. Being a child is confusing enough. They do not need to be further confused by being taught there aren’t just boys and girls but there are boys and girls and sixty-two other sexes. But this also leads to a bigger problem. Gender dysphoria was a real disorder defined in the DSM-5 used by psychologists. Of course, because of political correctness, that term was removed, further proving that psychology is a soft science at best. This disorder states that some children go through gender confusion. The little boy will think he’s a little girl and will act that way. This can be serious enough to lead to depression for the child be he is not a she. Most children will grow out of the disorder. But there is a push today that this disorder is normal and the child is a natural transsexual. This is scary stuff because there are people out there that believe that children as young as three should start going through transition protocols. Those protocols would change them physically for the rest of their lives.

We normal, reasoning people should resist and fight the Leftist indoctrination the schools are throwing at our children. We should make sure we keep the communication paths open with our children and not be afraid to tell them when something is wrong or immoral. It is the only way we can save our children from buying into all this garbage.

 

But It Doesn’t End There

The website TheFederalist.com has a great article by Chad Felix Greene about how the LGBTQ community has been trying to recruit new members. It point to what Jerry Falwell said in 1981, “Please remember, homosexuals don’t reproduce! They recruit! And they are after my children and your children!” Though the LGBTQ community has always claimed they have been targets of harassment and abuse, evidence has shown there have been very little since 1992. Many on the Religious Right believe that acceptance is not their goal but to mainstream their preference in order to recruit more members into their community.

Nothing proves this theory more than the drag queen organization Drag Queen Story Hour. This is a group of men that dress in the most over-the-top drag costumes and makeup and will go to schools and libraries to read children’s books to the kids. Take a look at how this viewed on the show Amazing Humans:

The Federalist article points out that most drag queens who participate mean only to entertain the children. And since most children do not understand sexuality, they don’t see them as more than someone who is there to entertain them in a funny outfit. But there are bigger issues.

Drag queen entertainment is adult entertainment.It is sassy, edgy and, like the entertainers, very sexualized. The author points out that having a drag queen reading to children is not too different from having a porn star read to children. I have seen drag shows before and he is right. He also points out that drag queens may not be the positive that the LGBTQ community is looking for. Be drag queens a positive aspect of the LGBTQ or is it mocking the transgender group? That debate goes on within the community.

But Greene sums it up well in this paragraph:

When LGBT activists argue their goal is to introduce preschool-aged children to concepts of gender-fluidity and openly “queer” people, they are arguing for forcing leftist views about sexuality and gender on children. That, in many ways, is what the conservative opposition is truly about.

I completely agree. Again, indoctrinating children on something that they do not understand creates confusion for them. It also is wrong to teach children about something that is morally questionable if not altogether immoral. Listen, I don’t care what these people do. They can do whatever I want and all I’ll do is shake my head. But I don’t think it’s normal and I hate it when these people try to force their crap on our children. I think this is a perversion. When one inflicts a perversion on a child, that’s child abuse.

 

This Is What The Goal Is

It’s Pride Month (can’t wait for Lust and Gluttony Months) and there a several really weird videos being posted on Twitter. The posts are from Pride parades across the United States. The feature kids in drag (called drag kids) dancing rather luridly in the crowds. These kids can range from 6 to about 12 years of age.

One of the most famous drag kids is called Desmond Is Amazing. Yeah, that’s his stage name. No kidding.

This is sick. This is what all this indoctrination in the schools and media are pushing. Listen to how CNBC treats this obviously troubled kid. Listen to his mother talk about him. That kid has a problem and is being abused by his parents. This kid is allowed to go on a stage at a gay bar and was given $1 bills by the audience as he danced. Don’t believe me? Watch this:

WTF?! How is this not child exploitation? How is this video not child pornography? Where the hell are this kids parents?! How is this right? How is this moral? How is this not a perversion? And why are we not all absolutely outraged? Because this stuff is becoming more common and more acceptable.

 

You Didn’t Read the Book, So What’s Your Point?

Aldous Huxley wrote about totalitarianism, specifically, Communism. That’s what the Brave New World is about. His works and teachings inspired another author who absolutely hated Communism so much, his books couldn’t get published for fear of ticking off the Soviet Union. That author is George Orwell.

Huxley lays a blueprint for implementing for controlling people who are living in a highly technical, highly controlled society. One of the ways they control this society (and there are a few other I’m not going to write about) is through temporary pleasure, specifically sex. Remember: in this world, there is no love, no monogamy, no moral pathways, no hope. Heck, there is bi-weekly orgy session that are required by the government. Morality has been defined by a government motivated by power. And they want to keep it.

But how can people do something that feels so wrong to today’s society (or did)? You indoctrinate the children into that belief system through the education system (the California law). You show the children the perversion over and over again (the Drag Queen Story Hour story). And, in the end, the children will accept the narrative (the Desmond Is Amazing story).

When I say this stuff in dangerous, people in the past have predicted this already. Well, Aldous Huxley did. So did George Orwell. And Ray Bradbury.

Here’s the thing: acceptance of totalitarianism takes time. Reagan said we could lose and it can only take a generation. He may not be wrong.

Oh Marty, Say It Ain’t So

Martin Luther King Jr. is not a saint. So what? The slow crawl of censorship moves forward. Trump gets a big win! And perversion gets a big hug from the Left.

 

So What?

Some bad news came out about Martin Luther King Jr. This news is actually not news but the media is making it news. Apparently, MLK wasn’t the greatest of human beings…personally. He loved women and cheated. He was involved in group sex, while married. He was even in a motel room while another man was “raping” a woman. I put that in quotes because I just read about it and didn’t hear the transcript. Let me give you the story and then talk about the controversy. Once that’s done, I’ll explain why it’s not a controversy.

When MLK was pushing for the abolition of the Jim Crow laws, he was very rocking the boat. Racism was systemic. And King wanted to blow that out. Since racism was systemic, the FBI wanted to silence King. They did this by trying to dig up dirt on him through spying. This isn’t new; J. Edgar Hoover, the FBI director at the time, monitored everybody including the Kennedy family. Finally, after fifty to sixty years, information was released about MLK.

The information includes MLK was a philanderer. He participated in group sex. He beat women. He beat his wife. But, the worst, he was in the same room while one of his minions was raping a woman.

Oh, the emotion!

OK, let’s pull emotion out of this and really break this down.

First off, everyone knew MLK was a womanizer. This is not in doubt. His wife said it. It was in a movie that made him out into a hero (the movie, called Selma, is awesome). He wasn’t the only man who tried to make the world good that did it. John F. Kennedy used to travel to other countries to have sex with hookers. He slept with Marilyn Monroe. Bill Clinton, who was an iffy President at best, got blown in the Oval Office (and that’s the least that he did). Ronald Reagan was an alcoholic and and cheated on his wives. Hell, he ended up divorced a few times because he cheated on his wives. J. Edgar Hoover was gay and a transvestite and he was responsible for having crap on people.

These are crappy arguments, I know. This is what-aboutism. But stay with me. I’m going somewhere with this.

We are living in a world where people are tearing down statues of the Founding Fathers. Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and Andrew Jackson (he really wasn’t a great guy) all had slaves. Street names are being changed, statues are being torn down or removed, even the names of schools are being changed all because these men were slave owners. Though immoral, at the time, this was the practice. Should we be tearing down the statues of Martin Luther King Jr., changing the names of the streets he was named after and getting rid of his holiday?

Of course not. Just like we shouldn’t be doing it with the others I have mention. Martin Luther King, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were all great men who had great accomplishments. Those accomplishments include freeing ourselves from the oppressive King of England, establishing a government that acknowledged our inalienable rights, created the capitalist economic system that has made this country the richest and most technologically advanced civilization in the history of the world and ended the scar of our history, the Jim Crow Laws, establishing that race differences have nothing to do with societal class. This stuff is so important and we can’t let personal failures ignore the societal impact that their activism had.

Here’s my story: Martin Luther King Jr. was personally flawed. Like we all are. Maybe he wasn’t a great man to his wife. But he was a great man to this country. And he should be celebrated. Just like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson (I don’t like Andrew Jackson).

 

SOCIAL MEDIA WAR!!!

Outspoken comedian and conservative, Steven Crowder, got into a war with a Left wing Vox activist over things Crowder said about him. The gentleman’s name is named Carlos Maza. He is a gay Latino that also has his own YouTube channel. Well, being a Leftist, gay and Latino is way too much for Crowder to hold back. So several times over the last year, Crowder would make fun of Maza. Well, Maza through a temper tantrum. He and Vox decided it was time to have Crowder deplatformed. So the called out YouTube and said that Crowder was abusing him.

There was just one problem: YouTube could not find any violations of their agreements. But that was not good enough for Maza and Vox. They complained again and, folding under some unfounded pressure. YouTube decided to demonetize Crowder’s YouTube channel. Crowder, through his lawyer, decided to find out why. He wasn’t give any reason. They said there were a few videos that had some questionable videos. But, when pushed by Crowder’s lawyer, YouTube said they would send a list. And they never have. They also complained about a T-shirt that Crowder sells. The “Socialism for Figs” T-shirt could not be referenced in the YouTube description of Crowder videos.

Yeah, I know. He doesn’t mean “figs” but that is not a “a” between the “f” and “g”. It’s a fig.

I watch the Steven Crowder show on YouTube. I love his Change My Mind series. It’s a great show. And he’s rough on people. He doesn’t ever hold back. He calls his lawyer, who is frequently on the show his “half-Asian lawyer.” He calls his producer “Not gay Jared” and “Quarter Black Jared” (I think it’s Jared). He’s called Ben Shapiro a “greedy shekel hoarder.” he’s not reverent for sure. But he’s hardly mean. It’s all done for the purposes of comedy. Below is his “apology” for hurting all the feeling he has hurt over the year. It is hysterical and you will get the idea of the kind of show he has.

He’s a pretty funny guy. If one appreciates that type of humor. Guess what? I do.

But there are bigger problems here. First, these social media platforms, which claim to places where free speech is embraced, are really hammering down on conservative voices. But, what’s worse, they’re doing it when those conservative voices aren’t actually breaking any rules. That’s bad. They are also beating conservatives up simply because Left-leaning groups have their “feelings” hurt. Vox and Maza didn’t want Crowder demonetized. They wanted him deplatformed. They wanted him censored. They don’t like what he says. Insulting a public figure, like Maza, is not uncommon. You’re a public figure and you will have a target on your back from those who don’t agree with you. But conservatives seem to get nailed by the platform whenever someone gets his feelings hurt. Hey, Louis Farrakhan was never suspended from Twitter when he compared Jews to cockroaches. But I got suspended when I called Bradley Manning, a traitor and trans-woman, a “him”. He frigging deserves it.

Censorship is always gradual. And dangerous. When only one message is out there, it is no longer entertainment but indoctrination. We already have that in the public schools, the news media and the entertainment industry. When regular people through social media platforms who have any conservative opinions are banned, what’s left?

 

OK, I Lied

A bigger news story came out tonight. I promised, in a flash podcast yesterday, that I was going to talk about some awesome books. Changed my mind since this is getting long.

Apparently, Donald Trump’s tariffs have worked.

Last week, Trump, using the only weapon he has, said he would place tariffs on Mexico if they did not help in trying to get these Central American migrants to stay in Central America. Tariffs on Mexico would kill them. And it wouldn’t help us (avocados are already expensive). This seemed to a feint by Trump to get Mexico to comply. Well it worked.

Mexico sent six thousand troops to their southern border and seem to agree to harbor asylum seekers within Mexico. The paperwork has been signed and the tariff threat has been averted.

This is a big win from Trump and makes Congress look far more worthless.

 

Oh… My… God…!

There’s a video flying around Twitter that is just flipping a lot of people out. I can’t find the video on YouTube but I’ll give you example.

Dude, this is so f-ing wrong, I don’t have words for it.

The video on Twitter is of a dozen kids acting like this. And all the people, including the parents, are laughing and enjoying watching these troubled children dancing around some coffee house in New York.

WTF!!! This is terrible! This is child abuse! This is Gender Dysphoria! Not only are these very ill kids not getting help, they’re being encouraged!

Need to calm down. Here’s the thing: I had four kids and there are a ton of challenges. But we disciplined out kids when got them help when they needed it. And, just to be clear, I have a daughter who is married to another woman. I do not have a problem with a child who is gay. But if my daughter came to me at eleven and said she was gay, I would tell her to wait. She may not be. Gender Dysphoria used to be in the DSM-5 but is no longer there, you guessed it, because of political correctness, not science.

The human mind is not mature. The prefrontal cortex, which controls emotion and reaction, which makes one think before action, is not matured until the age of around twenty-six. An eleven year old is not mature enough to make a decision like this. That eleven year old needs counselling and needs to understand who he/she is. It’s physical, it’s science.

Next, this isn’t normal. It’s abnormal and anti-social. This is not diversity. Should we be diverse with those with bi-polar disorder? Should we be diverse with the schizophrenic? Should we be diverse with the sociopaths or psychopaths? No! we should fix them before they harm someone. Why does our society always accept perversions as normal.

It’s sick. History is going to piss on this era.

Slow News Week But Sooo Much to Talk About!

It’s been kind of a slow news cycle, but leave it to Josie to heat things up and give me a couple of topics.

Oops! Wouldn’t You Know It!

This news cycle has been sooo slow. I so wrote a couple of fun pieces. Just as I’m about to record… BOOM! …. Robert Mueller has a surprise news conference. And, I was a little surprised, it was a doozy and has really put the Democrats in a corner. We are going to go over this in tomorrow’s post but it really hit me. I used to really like Robert Mueller. But, after that news conference, he’s kind of an ass. He got Jerry Nadler all hot and bothered. We’ll have fun with that tomorrow.

But it gets so much better. Some guy decided to set himself on fire right outside the White House. I’m not really ready to talk about this one because no one knows why he did this. They may never know because he’s in really bad shape. But I can reason that this was a guy suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome. All I know is he’s crazy. Hopefully I’ll known more tomorrow.

The Real Lesson Here

Josie got into a debate, which turned into an argument, with her niece. Josie and her sister were talking about homosexuality. My fiance thinks that homosexuality is not natural nor are homosexuals born that way. Her niece believes that people, though they can become gay through trauma, can also be born that way.

They got into it so bad her niece had to walk away. I asked what had gotten her panties in a bunch (is that sexist?). She told me what they were talking about and I continued the debate. She gave me her opinions and I gave her mine. Both opinions were counter to each other. But I brought up facts, she brought up facts. It was a calm discussion until Josie came back in the room. And the arguing started again. This time, I had to debate with Josie, even though, for the most part, I agreed with her. It got a little crazy because I was debating two different points of view at the same time. Bother were right and both were wrong.

I’m pretty comfortable saying that I was able to be convincing in both debates. That’s what I want to talk about. Not about the “gay” thing because I don’t see it as something that is important. I want to talk about how to the debate and how to maintain a debate without flipping out and making someone run out of a room in tears.

First off, keep your temper in check. Debating can become a very emotional exercise. Get over that and check your feelings at the door. Be cool. Speak with an indoor voice and pace your words. In other words, think before saying something. When one speaks in a calm, steady tone, there is a tendency for the other person to also speak in that tone. Likewise, never get personal. I know I have won or lost a debate simply by who got personal first (I have been caught on the dark side before). When someone gets personal, the debate is over and I walk away. This will also keep you sane when debating on Twitter.

With the way one speaks being important, listening is more important. Allow the other person to finish his statement. And listen. People have a tendency to let someone talk but not listen to what he is saying. This is bad and a debate can just fall apart. There are nuggets of gold in what someone says. That gold might be in the form of a bad talking point that can be reasonably countered. It might be in the form that the person actually holding the same beliefs as you but isn’t wording it the same way. It might be in the form that one may actually learn something he didn’t know before. I have learned to repeat what a person says. I do this for two reasons: to confirm I understand what she is saying and to prove to that person that I have listened to what she has said. I don’t know from whom I’ve learned that but it works. I have gotten very good at debating simply because I have learned by losing debates and, sometimes, my mind is changed.

Next, know what you don’t know. Be prepared to hear something, no matter the subject, that you’ve never heard before. This is a good thing. If you don’t have an answer, tell the person that. Likewise, know your stuff. Don’t make things up. We have hundreds of years of history, millions of scientific case studies and millions of philosophical texts. If you don’t know something, say so and look it up. I do this all the time on Twitter. I will say something and look it up to make sure I know what I’m talking about. Then, I will paste the link. It makes your argument that much stronger. Don’t just spew garbage that sounds good but have absolutely no proof or reference.

Finally, do nor allow one’s faith or belief system infringe on the debate. If I’m debating an agnostic on abortion, I am not going to tell him that God says we shouldn’t abort babies. The debate will be over right then and there. I can debate abortion without mentioning my faith. I will only use reason, science and some philosophy (though that, too, borders on faith and/or belief). Faith does have absolute truths, but those truths are only for the faithful. Those who do not hold that faith will quickly reject those truths, even if they suspect they might be true.

Debating is fun and educational. It doesn’t have to be filled stress and consternation. One should be able to have a friendly debate anywhere. I reject those who say never to bring politics at family functions. I can and will usually have a positive experience, especially with those who passionately disagree with me.

Keeping Politics Out of the John

Two weeks ago, Josie’s daughter complained that a little boy from her class was allowed to use the bathroom she was in. He claimed he was a trans girl and he should be allowed to use the girl’s restroom. If you’re not sure what a “trans girl” it means he’s a boy who thinks he’s a girl (or so he says). Of course, being from California, California’s Gender Recognition Act (SB 179) was passed in 2017 and makes it that children who identify as the opposite sex cannot be forced out of their chosen restroom at public places. That includes public schools.

This drives me frigging crazy. In other words my future step daughter’s comfort is compromised because some sick (or perverted) little boy decides he wants to use the girl’s restroom. What’s worse? He still has a penis. We told her just to leave the restroom, wait for him to leave and I will teach her how to use a gun to protect herself from these sickos when she gets older.

The insanity continues.

Today, according the Daily Wire, the Supreme Court has decided not to hear the case of Doe v. Boyertown Area School District. In this case, the students of the Pennsylvania school district policy to fight the policy that would allow “trans” students to pick the restrooms and locker rooms of their gender preference. The students were represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF).

The Supreme Court said, via their blog:

Whether, given students’ constitutionally protected privacy interest in their partially clothed bodies, a public school has a compelling interest in authorizing students who believe themselves to be members of the opposite sex to use locker rooms and restrooms reserved exclusively for the opposite sex, and whether such a policy is narrowly tailored; and (2) whether the Boyertown policy constructively denies access to locker room and restroom facilities under Title IX “on the basis of sex.”

Basically, the Supreme Court believes that any ruling they would make would violate Title IX. Title IX is the 1972 law that bans discrimination based on sex. Jesus!

I’m pulling three things out of this. First, this is why the ignoring of science when it comes to sex is so dangerous and I refuse (well, except out of respect for someone I like) to accept a trans-whatever for anything but what they really are. If one has a penis, he’s a man. If one has a vagina, she’s a woman. That’s physical science. That’s how it works. If a man mutilates his penis and makes it look like a vagina, he’s still a man. That’s science, specifically, genetics. He still has the XY chromosomes and it can’t be changed. That can’t be changed. What if a woman mutilates her vagina to make it look like a penis? She’s still a woman with a mutilated vagina! She still has the XX chromosomes! And she can still get pregnant! A trans man getting pregnant doesn’t prove that men can get pregnant. It proves that trans men are actually women! So insane…

Sorry, went on a diatribe. The next thing is important. It’s the militancy of the LGBTQRXYWZ movement. See, several years ago, I was against gay marriage. Well, I still am but it’s not that big of a deal. Why did I change? I realized my issue was not with gay marriage but with the militancy of the LGBT (the Q came later). Leave me alone, I’ll leave you alone. The government should have nothing to do with marriage anyway. These people just needed not to try to convince me it’s OK and leave me be. They didn’t. They are now trying to change the definition of biology and they are attacking the institutions (like the church) that share my opinions and making the people I care about feel like outsiders in hopes that they will join their narrative.

No, no more. I’m going to stop supporting this garbage. Right now, the LGBTQ has declared war on family and religious values. They wanted a civil service at courthouse, I was fine with that. They are now trying to change me? Change how I think and believe? Make my family uncomfortable all for political correctness? Nope, not going to happen.

Finally the Supreme Court, what a bunch of cowards. You have three conservatives, two moderates and four left-wingers. Kavanaugh, who fought left-wing accusations, has yet to go against the left-wing. Very sad.

When absolute truth is accepted a hundred years from now, what are our kids going to think of us. Mine will know, because I am going to continually tell them. I suggest you start doing that with your kids too. Moderation is dead.
