America's Anne Frank

The murder of this 20 year old girl is the result of the same process that let Anne Frank be murdered.

Blame a group of "others" for every problem you can think of.  It sure saves the trouble of doing any work to really solve such problems.

Demonize those "others".  They are responsible for all bad, they are dirty, they spread disease, they cause crime, they are dangerous, their ways are not ours!  That makes them less than human.

When your soldiers and police start to kill them, it is not "murder" but "self-defense".  Because resisting being sent to the Warsaw Ghetto is an "attack" just like entering a country to find work is an "invasion".  Thus shooting such in the head is "self-defense".

If the populace can put up with that for awhile, and even be told that to criticize it makes on less of a "good German" or "patriotic American", then you can start with the round ups.

After the round ups, well, you have to keep them somewhere, right?

Sadly, we've already got so far as the "round ups" and the keeping them "somewhere". 

Only one step left.  Will we even now back away from it?  Or must we fear our brothers and sisters seeking freedom and opportunity so much that they must all die?

Be This Guy

I'd like each morning for every worker in the United States to stand and face the flag outside their place of work, place their hand on their chest and sing the National Anthem.

I'd also like President Donald Trump to start his work day that way.  And the Board members of the NFL. 

And those who don't need to be fined, for the ThoughtCrime of not loving America, the Flag of America and the National Anthem of America enough.

Or is that just a penalty that we impose on football players who want to quietly kneel in protest of what they believe to be a wrong?

Meanwhile, I encourage all professional football players to "be this guy":

Another Four Star General, another dead black kid

Like peanut butter and jelly, you just can't have a dead black kid without some poster boy for white privilege standing before microphones in all their four star glory.

The latest General with a self-awarded rank higher than that of Founding Father and President George Washington, is Sheriff Joseph "I outrank Grant and Lee" Lopinto.

Now, while most stolen valor posers will don the four stars on each shoulder - or each side of their collar - like the real men of the real military does, this baby boy, unsure as to how real men dress themselves in our armed forces, went for the overkill.

And thus you behold him in all his SIXTEEN STAR glory, as this ignorant poser has donned four stars on his left shoulder, four stars on his right shoulder, and in case you didn't notice them, another four stars on this left collar and another four stars on his right!

Pity his poor wife who has to pin those on to his shirt each morning after starching and ironing his Superman underoos.  I give him credit, though.  The bath towel cape he is without a doubt wearing is well tucked in, and unnoticeable in his pretty white faux military attire.

But what of the death of the black kid?  Oh, his name was Keeven Robinson.  Why, does it matter what his name was?  He was found with "significant traumatic injuries" that were "consistent with asphyxiation".  Had he been white, this would be called "murdered by strangulation".  This happened while he was in the custody of four of the General's white soldiers.  Er, I mean, four of the Sheriff's deputies who happened to be Caucasian.  

But really, must we dwell on that death?  I mean, it's not like anything is going to be done about it.  The mealy mouthed coroner already assured the press that "homicide by medical diagnosis" is not the same as "legal homicide", so really, it's not like there's a crime here.  I mean, what part of "black kid" don't you understand?

The General, when asked by our "free press" if chokeholds were used (because they're not supposed to be, given how they cause death so routinely) answered, "Well, golly now, we don't tell our deputies to use bricks, but if they're under attack and defending their lives, and a brick is laying about, then sure, you use a brick."  I paraphrase, but besides it being expressed a bit dumber, that was the jist.

Cop-ese for "Yes, we routinely use strangleholds on crack addicts, crazies and coloreds, because we can.  Had he had the sense to be born a white girl or rich man, this non-tragedy could have been averted."

Well, let us pray our thanks tonight that Jefferson County, Louisiana is guarded not by some mere officer of the law, but by this sixteen star Generalissimo.  And that he had four husky armed soldiers to "defend" we the people against that unarmed black youth who - in fairness - did have a gun in his car 200 yards away.  

And you know how quick they can run and jump, eh?  Yeah.

In the end, the only important thing is that those "men" got home safely.  And they did.  And it's not like they've not been punished.  Each of them is drawing full pay while sitting at a desk telling jokes about watermelons and fried chickens, so really, justice has been done, eh?

At least such "justice" as is to be found in General Lopinto's America.  

Trump's New Policy

Parents seeking sanctuary in the United States are now having their children took away from them.  Approximately 700 so far. 

Had this policy been in place 2,000 years ago, then the Egyptians would have kidnapped Jesus and placed him in a detention facility - indefinitely.

Mary and Joseph would have been sent back - eventually.  With Jesus?  Well, in the modern American way of doing things, some bureaucrat would say, "Since there were no proper papers or way of saying which kid was who's..."

Wow.

Good thing Jesus was born back in the soft and sweet days of Kings killing kids and brutal Pharoah-gods and Roman soldiers! 

Good thing Jesus wasn't born near our nation.  A nation incompetent to keep a billion tons of heroin out, but plenty up for wresting babies from mother's arms.

It never occurs to conservatives, or our Border Gestapo, that terrorists don't have to sneak in disguised as parents.  That all they need to do to get in here is to hide in a shipment of drugs.

But who would we be to question this procedure, if it had gone down that way for Jesus?  I mean, I know that He was in danger and His parents were just trying to save Him...

...but as conservatives say, "What part of 'illegal' did Mary and Joseph not understand?"

Because slavish adherence to the law is more important than saving your kid's life - right?

Good Germans

I suppose it would be easy enough to pan on the cops here.  And they are definitely worth panning on.  Or I could pan on the Starbucks employee who called the cops. 

But I'm calling out the filmers.  Those who are no doubt patting themselves on the back right now for "promoting awareness" and doing their part for the "Revolution" by quietly watching a gaggle of cops lead away in chains two black men.

Any of them act like they'd have hid Anne Frank in their attic - but their own phone footage damns them.  They'd have filmed Anne Frank being led away by the Gestapo.

That's all they'd have done.  Of course, that raises the question, "Dean, what would you have done?"

Hmm.  Well, I guess I suck, too. 

Thinking about it, I realize that I'd have done little more than the filmers.  Maybe a few token protests, but then I'd have subsided under fear of arrest.

Or such.

Because I do fear arrest.  "Or such".  And no doubt those there do, too.  We all know, even those who know and love some cops, that to draw their attention always has some element of danger to it.  Far more than it used to.

Far more than it needs to.

Far more than it should.

And if the cops are already wound up, like we each know they are when they're on to some black guy?  Even more danger, even to us white folks.  And especially to us non-Porsche driving white folk. 

Is this the country of our youth?  Our granddad's youth?

Is this the country we want?  Where we know now why the Germans didn't complain back in the forties?

Where we're now the Good Germans?

Another Four Star Poser

You know how many stars Sheriff's are actually supposed to wear?

One.

Over their heart. 

Because they are civilians tasked with guarding the peace of a given area.

Stars on the shoulders are to represent the military rank of General.  One star on each shoulder does that for what is technically called a "Brigadier General".

Then two stars for Major General.

Then three stars for Lieutenant General.

Then four stars for simply "General".

In rare cases, a fifth star can be awarded, usually if one is fighting WWII and commanding not only American but Allied forces.

Washington was awarded a fifth star posthumously, and declared to out rank any other fifth star General out there, past, present of future.  In his life, General Washington had but three stars.

But when you're a real man, you don't need to pile on rank pointlessly.

Local Sheriffs and Police Chiefs take note - you are NOT soldiers.  Heaven knows if you were, less civilians would be killed.

Those who respect law enforcement usually also respect the military.

The "posers" in our law enforcement need to stop posing.  If they want military rank - join the military!

Pictured:  General Grady Judd, Sheriff, Polk County, Florida.  He has a star on his chest, he has four stars on each shoulder, and he has his very own flag because he's, like, Sheriff, and his flag?

His flag has a star on it!  Cuz, he's like, way up there!  Past George Washington!
