Baby Soros Throws the Bird

Another one for the funny files. It’s Friday, yo! And this one has an important piece of physiognomy that I’ve been mediating upon.

Knife-Wielding Woman Found With Pigeon Upon Arrest: Police

The woman reportedly hit a security guard with a fanny pack in Fairfax. Officers later found a live pigeon inside that fanny pack.

FAIRFAX, VA.A commotion at the Social Security Administration office in Fairfax escalated into something more bizarre when the suspect was arrested Tuesday.

Around 10:24 a.m., officers responded to the government office at 11212 Waples Mill Road for a report of an assault on a security guard. Police say a woman was yelling at employees, prompting the security guard to approach.

Sounds like Cankle Barbie got her Social Security demands rejected. I’ve met a few public-money parasites and it’s tragicomic how they worry about and track those monthly checks like a football zealot does his local team. They have hours-long gossip sessions, comparing notes and complaining to anybody who hold still about the horrors of gov’t until they get their check and calm down like a baby on a pacifier. Sucking on the public teat, indeed.

She responded by striking him in the head with a fanny pack. When the guard escorted her out of the building, the woman reportedly took out a knife and threatening him.

A Fairfax County officer located her nearby and took her into custody. When they searched her fanny pack, officers found a live pigeon inside.

I love to imagine this scene.

Woman: “GIMMIE MY MONEY MOTHERF***ER! F*** YOU! I AIN’T LEAVING UNTIL I GET MY MONEY! MIND YOUR OWN F***ING BUSINESS! F*** YOU! I CAN’T EVEN HAVE A SMOKE IN HERE!”

Guard: “As of now, you are trespassing on private property. Leave or I’ll… um… what’s that noise coming from your crotch? Sounds like ‘oops’?”

Woman: “LET’S FIND OUT, WHITE BOY! *starts undressing in public*”

Guard: “I get paid ten bucks an hour for this?”

*Woman beats him with fanny pack*

Guard is surprised to be alive. Most women carry everything and the kitchen sink in their bags but this pack feels padded, like it’s filled with down or something.

Woman: “WHY YOU KEEP HITTING YOURSELF WITH MY SERVICE ANIMAL?!”

Officers took the pigeon to the Fairfax County animal shelter, where staff determined it was not injured. The bird will be released into the wild once the police investigation concludes.

How cute! Worst molting season ever for this poor bird.

Knife-Wielding Woman Found With Pigeon Upon Arrest: Police

Laurie Weaver, 56, of New York, faces an attempted unlawful wounding charge for threatening the guard. Additional charges are possible after the police department consults with Animal Protection Police.

No one was injured during the incident.

DAYUMN! The last guy who looked like that had a pentagram on his forehead. He really… uh, she really does look like a homeless man. Even that crooked nose suggests she’s been hitting fists with her face, consistent with this story but not with even feral female behavior.

It would be so, so modern-American if she got a misdemeanor for hitting a security guard and a felony for animal cruelty.

The truly creepy part is her lower eyelids–so flabby that they look like scabs or crusts. I’ve seen this in several “notable” people and they’re always either deranged or holding high office. The classic case is George Soros’ eyes:

What Billionaire George Soros Gets Wrong About the Chinese ...

Whoa. I just now realized, putting the pics in this post, that both of them have noses and mouths pulled the exact same way. Creepy.

Anyway, I’ve never read a physiognometric explanation for that “second lower eyelid”. The Chinese equate drooping lower eyelids to kidney failure but no such example is comparable to this and I’ve not heard of Soros ever being on dialysis. I haven’t decided on a tentative interpretation myself but it turns up in the most questionable of characters.

If you, the reader know a case of “second lower eyelid” then let me know. I’m curious to compile some examples to look for commonalities.

 

 

Police Win Pissing Contest Against Berkeley Antifa

For the funny files.

https://www.yaf.org/news/demoralized-uc-berkeley-police-officer-to-chancellor-christ-we-too-are-human-beings/

Authored by Spencer Brown

Pajama Boy? Is that you?

September 17, 2018

In an email to UC Berkeley Chancellor Carol Christ obtained by Young America’s Foundation, a 25-year veteran of the University of California Berkeley Police Department unleashed his frustrations over the anti-police environment created by administrators.

The email, dated September 28, 2017, was sent to Chancellor Christ in the wake of several events at UC Berkeley where campus police were called in to ensure the rule of law remained intact. While on-duty protecting students and the Berkeley campus, .the Police Department was asked not to use any restrooms inside the Student Union building as it was upsetting some students. according to the email obtained through YAF.s Censorship Exposed project. For students to find the campus police officers who ensure their safety “upsetting” is ludicrous enough, but for the Berkeley administration to kowtow to these fragile and childish complaints, choosing students. feelings over the humanity of their own police force, is inexplicable.

Hardly inexplicable. Maybe Antifa shouldn’t peek over the urinals to compare dick sizes with law enforcement, when half of their genders require… ah… high-cut circumcisions.

Sadly, the e-mail’s tone was whiny and passive, turning a world-class, soft-serve black knighting opportunity into a voluntary humiliation on top of the involuntary humiliation. Men shouldn’t talk like this:

.I find this offensive and unacceptable,. continues the UCBPD officer. .The very notion that [Berkeley] would restrict Police Officer[s] and employees from using a publicly accessible restroom, in a publicly accessible building is unconscionable. How can we foster a sense of community policing when the campus community, that we work hard to protect, has such disdain for us as fellow human beings,. the email continues. .If we treated a member of the campus community in this way we would most certainly be held accountable and rightly so..

.Chancellor when do we get to be a part of this campus community? We have done nothing to warrant the dehumanizing and bullying behavior that we and our partner agencies experienced. We simply tried our best to protect the students, faculty, and staff, as we do on a daily basis, from any possible harm..

The students treat you inhumanely, officer, because they regard you as inhuman. Berkeley students are the wolves and they know you sheepdogs aren’t wolves. They will never give you a seat at the table. Crack their heads accordingly and if they won’t let you piss in the urinal then piss on them instead. Be a sheepdog and mark your territory!

Denise Steps on Abortion’s Third Rail

Denise McCallister has been covered on this blog before, when she put an article on the Federalist worrying that #MeToo was destroying trust between women and sexy men.

https://gunnerq.androsphere.net/2017/12/19/the-federalist-is-the-feminist/

Now she has reportedly been getting credible death threats over an abortion tweet. One should always be skeptical about hysterical women these days but when I read the tweet, I can see why there would have been a massive reaction.

‘Threats of Rape and Strangling’ Force D.C. McAllister Into Hiding After Anti-Abortion Tweet

By Tyler O’Neil, 11 September 2018

https://pjmedia.com/trending/threats-of-rape-and-strangling-force-d-c-mcallister-into-hiding-after-anti-abortion-tweet/

Last week, PJ Media contributor and Fox News guest Denise McAllister sent out a powerful tweet denouncing the abortion movement. Little did she know, days later she would be in hiding, scared for her life. When she went public about receiving death and rape threats, pro-abortion Twitter users championed the threats against her.

“At the root of [abortion] hysteria is women’s unhinged desire for irresponsible sex. Sex is their god. Abortion is their sacrament,” McAllister tweeted. “It.s abhorrent as women have flung themselves from the heights of being the world’s civilizing force to the muck and mire of dehumanizing depravity.”

Denise stepped on the Third Rail of Abortion: She blamed women for seeking abortions.

Pro-abortionists blame men for unwanted pregnancy or sometimes, nobody at all. These things happen, like the common cold, you see. Anti-abortionists blame the doctors and supporters. But neither dares blame the person demanding and paying for the abortion: the woman.

Look at the Federal Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 in USA, which specifically exempts abortion from being considered a form of fetal homicide:

Title 18, Section 1841, partial:

(a) (1) Whoever engages in conduct that violates any of the provisions of law listed in subsection (b) and thereby causes the death of, or bodily injury (as defined in section 1365) to, a child, who is in utero at the time the conduct takes place, is guilty of a separate offense under this section.

(2) (A) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the punishment for that separate offense is the same as the punishment provided under Federal law for that conduct had that injury or death occurred to the unborn child’s mother.

Okay, an unborn child has the same legal status as his mother. Reasonable.

(B) An offense under this section does not require proof that.

(i) the person engaging in the conduct had knowledge or should have had knowledge that the victim of the underlying offense was pregnant; or

(ii) the defendant intended to cause the death of, or bodily injury to, the unborn child.

It doesn’t matter whether the (male) perpetrator even knows the unborn child exists. A blatant violation of due process, the legal equivalent of being charged with hit & run for running over an invisible man.

(c) Nothing in this section shall be construed to permit the prosecution.

(1) of any person for conduct relating to an abortion for which the consent of the pregnant woman, or a person authorized by law to act on her behalf, has been obtained or for which such consent is implied by law;

(2) of any person for any medical treatment of the pregnant woman or her unborn child; or

(3) of any woman with respect to her unborn child.

Pussy pass. Mommy gets to murder baby if she wants to but it’s a felony for anybody else to want to. So decree the “good guys” of the abortion issue.

This is the lie of the anti-abortion movement, that women are innocent bystanders/victims of the baby-butcher factory instead of its paying customers. Cross the anti-abortionists on this and they’ll make death threats more vile than the abortionists themselves would dare to make.

Also, take a look at the graphs on this wikipedia page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_the_United_States_by_state

Parental notification laws, mandatory waiting periods, mandatory counseling laws, mandatory ultrasounds. The underlying assumption here is that women are ignorant of what they’re doing, they’re being rushed by their boyfriends, they aren’t aware of adoption services and so on. Come on, now: women know they’re killing their babies.

No more pussy pass. Any woman who “gets an abortion” is a murderess.

But pointing that out will trigger possibly the largest collection of white knights in the Western World. It’s harsh when a man makes that statement but on a certain level, men are expected to “not understand her situation”. When a woman rejects the narrative, however, she reveals the narrative for what it is: a lie that empowers female rebellion.

Cockroaches hate the light and Denise McCallister got red-pilled the hard way.

 

China to Manage California Public Pensions

What’s a state government to do when all the fat public pensions offered a generation ago have come due and all its current revenue is tied up in Squatemalan imports? How can a gov’t pay those oversized pensions without raising taxes or floating another trillion dollars in bonds?

By letting the People’s Republic of China take control of the system. It does have the advantage of never having been tried.

Biggest U.S. Public Pension Looks to China for New Investment Chief

An official with China’s foreign-exchange regulator is the lead candidate to become next investment chief

https://www.wsj.com/articles/biggest-u-s-public-pension-looks-to-china-for-new-investment-chief-1537376027

An official with China’s foreign-exchange regulator is the lead candidate to become next investment chief of the largest U.S. public pension fund, according to people familiar with the matter.

The California Public Employees. Retirement System has offered the job to Ben Meng, deputy CIO of China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange, one of these people said. The agency is in charge of China’s more than $3 trillion in foreign reserves. Mr. Meng previously worked for the California pension fund earlier this decade.

Mr. Meng hadn’t signed an offer letter as of Wednesday morning, this person said. Mr. Meng contacted The Journal late Wednesday to say he is a U.S. citizen working at the Chinese agency as a foreign contractor. He said he had no comment on the hiring process.

The U.S. State Department should have revoked Meng’s citizenship the moment he took work in the Chinese gov’t. There is no chance, none, that Meng is loyal to the United States. The Chicomms are very effective at preventing dissidents from holding positions of authority in gov’t… and exploiting ethnic ties when their people turn up in foreign governments, as proven by China’s massive, systemic campaign of espionage on the United States.

Yu (Ben) Meng - UC Davis Graduate School of Management

I can’t use Western physiognomy here because of the obvious ethnic barrier but the Chinese system is worth trying. His eyes have the drooping canthus, the outer side of where his eyelids meet. That indicates an observant and cautious personality, no surprise for someone in high finance. The right side droops more than the left so he’s more reserved in the workplace than daily life. He had an American education so again, no surprise. We are were more honest and open than Communist societies.

His cheekbones also stand out in a casual look. The Chinese believe prominent cheekbones to be an indicator of boldness, which is consistent with his chin. Both Chinese and Western systems agree that a wide, square jaw is a good indicator of dominance and masculinity.

So, Meng definitely has the look of financial success to him. I would have expected a different shape of nose for a financial guru in the Western system; the hooked nose isn’t exclusive to Jews. Meng’s nose is considered family-oriented in the Chinese system and tribalist in the Western. (Note, I can’t see the nose in profile to confirm. Online photos are commonly less than ideal for readings but they’re what I have to work with.)

Meng has not yet accepted the position.

The selection of Mr. Meng would place a familiar face in charge of $360 billion in assets managed for police officers, firefighters and other public workers across the state of California. Mr. Meng spent seven years at the system, known by its abbreviation Calpers, in investment roles. He left in late 2015 and joined the Chinese government agency.

The next investment chief of Calpers faces questions on the future mix, cost and complexity of the pension fund’s portfolio.

If you’ve ever wondered why the rest of America tends to follow California’s lead, this is it: we’re huge. Our markets are too big to be ignored. the mainstream producers of stuff, such as school textbooks, are eager to do what Commiefornians want. Oregon and Arizona are along for the ride.

The current chief, Ted Eliopoulos, attempted a retreat from more expensive investments as the giant retirement system reduced return expectations, cut costs and tried to better protect the pension fund from the next economic downturn. Mr. Eliopoulos said in May that he would leave his post by the end of the year.

Calpers.s next investment chief would join a fund that is debating the direction of its roughly $27 billion private-equity program. Calpers, as part of a review of that portfolio, is exploring plans to farm out billions to pools that will take stakes in private companies.

Any moves made by Calpers, which is responsible for benefits to more than 1.9 million active or retired public employees, will be watched closely in the pension world. The system is considered a bellwether for investment trends. Calpers and many other public retirement systems around the country are struggling to meet their return targets as they try to fill sizable funding gaps.

A case in point. Giving the PRC control of California’s pension system would give them the ability to destabilize the financial sector of the entire country.

Board directors also agreed to a recommendation championed by Mr. Eliopoulos that the fund’s long-term investment target drop to 7% from 7.5% because of changing market conditions and a cash crunch.

Now Calpers Chief Executive Marcie Frost wants the system’s next CIO to have deep investment experience, said a person familiar with the matter. Mr. Eliopoulos hadn’t managed money on Wall Street before becoming the permanent investment chief in September 2014.

She wants a Wall Street insider? Somebody sold Barbie on the idea that stocks only go up. She must want to play risky with the investments she controls. Bad idea but does a woman have the courage to tell an angry horde of parasites to fend for themselves? Illegal immigration suggests no.

CalPERS Cuts Pension Benefits for East San Gabriel Valley Human Services | Institutional Investor

Several pictures of her have the lower sclera of her eyes visible. That’s a sign of fear reaching the limbic threshold. Given her position and call for a CIO with insider stock market experience, I’d guess she’s in over her head and wants to find a man she can unload her responsibilities on. If he’s a senior member of a powerful, aggressive government then so much the better, from the female point of view.

Letting a Chinese agent into the top levels of CalPERS will do much to hasten the day when the PRC Navy does a victory lap around San Francisco Bay. Considering that China has recently taken up the “we’ll give you a loan we know you’ll default on so we can seize the collateral” game in Africa, it’s not hard to see them playing that game with California’s pension funds. A thousand square miles of rural land for every year the PRC keeps the pension fund afloat, perhaps.

Could our leaders sell us out any more eagerly?

 

Jane Stanford, Opponent of Academic Freedom

Now here’s an interest character from history. I doubt Stanford Uni thought the matter through when they chose to honor this wife of an 1800s Donald Trump in place of Junipero Serra. But what can one expect from philistines? History is, like, so not Current Year anymore.

Not that Jane herself was an interesting character. She was apparently loyal to her husband, Leland Stanford, the founder of the Central Pacific Railroad, onetime California governor and US Senator until his death. A powerful and wealthy man. They had one child, Junior, a son who died young from typhoid, and the couple built Stanford University in memory of him.

University Archives | Stanford University Libraries

Jane is credited by multiple sources with having insisted upon a coed student body. A quote from her inaugural speech, not actually given because she was too shy:

Click to access sc0033b_s5_b2_f04.pdf

I am also anxious that these young men should treat the young ladies who have entered this Institution with the greatest deference; that they will be helpful in aiding and cheering them in their ambition for a thorough education.

Definitely proto-feminist but she went on to praise manual labor in addition to “improving the mental faculties” so Jane wasn’t on the same level as the famous feminists of her time. She also capped female enrollment at 500 in fear that the university was becoming a womens’ school. You see, Stanford U charged no tuition until 1920 so it was a great way for hypergamous women to get their MRS degrees. An early derp in Red Pill history.

The main scandal of her rule over the administration (as a widow) was the Ross Affair, the result of which was tenure and the implementation of academic freedom in America… in opposition to Jane Stanford.

https://www.revolvy.com/page/Edward-Alsworth-Ross

Ross Affair and departure from Stanford

In Stanford’s “first academic freedom controversy”, Ross was fired from Stanford because of his political views on eugenics. He objected to Chinese immigrant labor (on both economic and racial grounds: he was an early supporter of the “race suicide” doctrine and expressed his wish to restrict entry of other races in strong and crude language in public speeches) and Japanese immigration altogether. In the speech that was the catalyst for his potential firing and ultimate resignation, he was quoted as declaring:

And should the worst come to the worst it would be better for us if we were to turn our guns upon every vessel bringing Japanese to our shores rather than to permit them to land

In response, Jane Stanford called for his resignation.

In Ross’ public statement as to his resignation, he wrote about how his good friend, Dr. Jordan, was the one who asked him to make the unfortunate speech in the first place, which ended up being surrounded with so much controversy. Jordan managed to keep Ross from being fired, but Ross resigned shortly after. The position was at odds with the university’s founding family, the Stanfords, who had made their fortune in Western rail construction, a major employer of coolie laborers.

In honesty, Ross couldn’t have expected a different fate. Don’t bite the hand that feeds you. But his sentiments are remarkably relevant to modern immigration concerns.

From the American Association of University Professors, founded in the wake of Ross’ firing:

https://www.aaup.org/about/history-aaup

In 1900, when noted economist Edward Ross lost his job at Stanford University because Mrs. Leland Stanford didn’t like his views on immigrant labor and railroad monopolies, other professors were watching. The incident stuck in the mind of Arthur O. Lovejoy, philosopher at Johns Hopkins. When he and John Dewey organized a meeting in 1915 to form an organization to ensure academic freedom for faculty members, the AAUP was born. At that time, the notion of “academic freedom” was still a novel concept.

We need to repeal academic freedom. Its original purpose was to prevent retaliation from authorities. No wonder higher education is a swamp of Leftism, if its academic freedom was intended from the very beginning to encourage subversion. Protection from consequences attracts Leftoids like garbage attracts flies. Ross himself went on to become an apologist for Communism.

Interestingly, as an aside, Ross believed that the closing of the frontier led directly to the death of America’s ability to assimilate immigrants. His contemporary Frederick Jackson Turner is a better starting point for those inclined to read up on the “frontier thesis”.

Another aside is his ally, University President David Jordan, a fellow eugenicist and equally interesting character. From wikipedia:

In March 1891, he was approached by Leland and Jane Stanford, who offered him the presidency of their about-to-open California university, Leland Stanford Junior University. Andrew White, the president of Cornell, had recommended Jordan to the Stanfords based on an educational philosophy fit with the Stanfords’ vision of a non-sectarian, co-educational school with a liberal arts curriculum. He quickly accepted the offer. Jordan arrived at Stanford in June 1891 and immediately set about recruiting faculty for the university’s planned September opening. Pressed for time, he drew heavily on his own acquaintances; most of the fifteen founding professors came either from Indiana University or Cornell. That first year at Stanford he was instrumental in establishing the university’s Hopkins Marine Station. He served Stanford as president until 1913 and then chancellor until his retirement in 1916. The university decided not to renew his three-year-term as chancellor in 1916. As the years went on, Jordan became increasingly alienated from the university.

While chancellor, he was elected president of the National Education Association. Jordan was a member in the Bohemian Club and the University Club in San Francisco. Jordan served as a Director of the Sierra Club from 1892 to 1903.

In retirement, Jordan served as an evolution expert witness for the defense in the 1925 Scopes Trial.

Jane Stanford was eventually murdered by strychnine poisoning in a case so sensational that it made online research difficult.

In closing, I find it fitting that Leland Stanford Jr, University (its full, official name) should honor Jane Stanford, an early feminist, enemy of academic freedom and profiteer from Chinese immigration, in place of Junipero Serra, a devout Christian who first brought civilization to the pagan locals.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

 

Stanford’s Cultural Arson

Stanford University has decided to rename its buildings to ease the hurt butts of militarized students and Amerind grievance-mongers, distancing itself from a piece of California history called Junipero Serra, an influential and amazingly accomplished Catholic priest who was instrumental in founding the famous California Missions as well as the cities of San Francisco and Los Angeles.

University to rename Serra House, Serra Mall following two years of controversy

https://www.stanforddaily.com/2018/09/13/university-to-rename-serra-house-serra-mall-following-two-years-of-controversy/

by Brian Contreras, Holden Foreman and Julia Ingram, 17 September 2018

Stanford will rename the freshman dorm, Serra, and Serra House, two campus buildings honoring California mission system founder Father Junipero Serra, who has drawn sharp criticism for his mistreatment of Native Americans.

Serra was admittedly harsh to the locals, being a firm believer in forced conversions, Inquisitor-at-large for New Spain and various other issues a modern Prot like me could nitpick. However, the sort of people who think Serra was evil tend to champion truly wicked men like Che “the Pig” Guevara. It’s an unfunny joke when atheists claim devout Christians are the bad guys; the 20th Century has settled this matchup beyond doubt.

Stanford will also seek to rename Serra Mall, pending the approval of Santa Clara County and the U.S. Postal Service. This would change the University’s official address, which is currently 450 Serra Mall. If approved, Serra Mall will become Jane Stanford Way in honor of the University’s co-founder.

A choice of obvious cultural and historical significance. How did we manage to become a state without the blessed influence of Jane Stanford?

Jane Lathrop Stanford | Sally McBurney | Flickr

Do those look like crazy eyes to you? She’s not quite bitchface but no photographs I’ve found would disagree with that accusation.

New names for the Serra dorm and the Serra House, an academic building that houses the Clayman Institute for Gender Research, have yet to be determined. According to Brad Hayward, Associate Vice President for University Communications, the University will select the new name for Serra dorm after gathering student input starting this fall.

“We don’t know who we do want the dorms named after but we’re sure Father Serra has got to go. Hey, let’s let the kids make our decisions! We won’t trigger them that way. We don’t want to trigger them.”

Not all landmarks that echo Serra’s name will be re-christened. Serra Street, which stretches from the end of Serra Mall to El Camino Real, will retain its name. The dorm Junipero . named for the juniper tree rather than Serra, despite popular misconceptions . will remain unchanged.

Yeah, sure. The dorm was named after a species of tree, not the guy whose name is on the surrounding buildings and street. I doubt academic freedom can exist in a university willing to lie to itself as a compromise or cost-cutting measure.

The decision was recommended by the Advisory Committee on Renaming Junipero Serra Features, convened by University President Marc Tessier-Lavigne to apply a set of principles surrounding the renaming of campus buildings and landmarks to those honoring Serra. The recommendations have been accepted by Stanford’s Board of Trustees.

I left the link to those principles for the interested. They’re so vague that somebody must have been paid a large fortune to write them.

The decision was recommended by the Advisory Committee on Renaming Junipero Serra Features, convened by University President Marc Tessier-Lavigne to apply a set of principles surrounding the renaming of campus buildings and landmarks to those honoring Serra. The recommendations have been accepted by Stanford’s Board of Trustees.

.We hope that renaming the two Serra houses and Serra Mall will remove a significant hurt to Native Americans, other members of the Stanford community and the larger diverse world that Stanford seeks to embrace,. the committee’s report states. .We also acknowledge that respect for historic continuity with Stanford’s founding reflected in our recommendation to maintain the names of other features named for Spanish missionaries and settlers may continue to cause concern for some..

I found an interesting reason for Junipero Serra to be singled out like this: Serra was canonized by Pope Francis on September 23, 2015, as a part of the pope’s first visit to the United States, the first canonization to take place on American soil, per Wikipedia.

Stanford.s Thursday decision marks a milestone in a multi-year debate that has been fraught with institutional delays and ensuing frustration from those who sought a resolution to the matter.

The Advisory Committee on Renaming Junipero Serra Features is the third committee convened in response to the call to rename Serra. An original committee, tasked in 2016 to resolve the renaming question by then-President John Hennessy, failed to deliver a verdict on the matter after a long stalemate.

In late 2017, institutional efforts to address the renaming controversy accelerated. Tessier-Lavigne announced that he would dissolve that group and convene two new committees; the first would devise principles on renaming to ensure continuity between cases going forward, and the second would apply those principles to Serra’s case.

Marc Tessier-Lavigne Biography

Mark Tessier-Lavigne is a pedoface. How ironic, for a man unpersoning a virtuous Catholic priest. (Visit pedoface.com for more examples.)

Committee chair and former Stanford Law Dean Paul Brest said that the group’s deliberations, including efforts to perceive the nuances of Serra’s relationship to Stanford history, were thoughtful and constructive.

.It was a very positive and productive process,. he said.

.What came through to all of us . and I speak for all the committee members who were there . was a sense of sincere passion about their felt harms that Native Americans felt from Serra,. Brest said. .There was a tremendous empathy and association of Native American experiences wherever they came from, with each other..

In the meeting, individuals of Native American descent recounted “visceral feelings of harm, trauma, emotional damage, and damage to their mental health,. as a result of buildings honoring Serra, according to the report.

Utter bullshit. Some dude who lived in the 1700s did not do harm to anybody alive today. Do “Native Americans” think the world would have left them alone in North America, howling at the moon in their ignorant, Stone-Age squalor? We whites came along and gave the Amerinds a gold-plated invitation to be part of the greatest nation in human history and these chuckleheads decide to be ingrates. If not us, then probably the Chinese or Japanese would have ethnic-cleansed them into oblivion.

Native Americans murdered some of my settler ancestors. Should I allow myself to have “visceral feelings of harm” about that? It was way more recent than Catholic California. Maybe I will one day, if we’re going to have an “I get to hurt you today because other peoples’ ancestors did my ancestors a bad turn” pissing contest.

According to the report, Catholic community members expressed their hope that the committee would not “attack evangelism” as an enterprise.

Catholic stakeholders also said the committee should not attribute all problematic components of the mission system to Serra, as some factors were beyond his individual knowledge and power.

.The mission system changed after his death, and the mission system as a whole is more than just Serra,. Catholic Students Association former president Katie Hufker .18 told The Daily last year.

The committee summarized the Catholic community’s viewpoint with the statement of one individual, who said they would be “disappointed but not angry,. if features honoring Serra were renamed.

As a result, the committee determined that “the harms avoided by renaming outweigh the harms of renaming,. and thus, renaming is “not disrespectful,. according to the report.

The Catholics cucked and as a reward, Junipero Serra wasn’t completely unpersoned.

History of the debate

The renaming effort began when the Associated Students of Stanford University (ASSU) Senate passed a resolution asking the University to consider renaming buildings honoring Serra in February 2016. Specifically, the resolution called for the renaming of four locations: the Serra and Junipero dorms, the Serra House and the University’s address.

The original ASSU Senate bill said that “recognition [of Serra] illustrates the dismissal, indifference and subsequent erasure of indigenous voices in the institution and tacitly celebrates the atrocities visited upon Native communities of old..

.Father Serra’s actions led to the massacre of thousands of people and the disappearance of languages and cultures, which is a net negative,. said former ASSU Vice President Brandon Hill .16 while discussing the bill. .We should shift the burden from us . justifying why he needs to go to, why is it imperative that he needs to be celebrated?.

Five months after Serra’s canonization, one month into the academic semester. The timing is right for this being prompted by Serra’s canonization.

Stanford has failed as a university by not answering Brandon’s idiotically simple question. We remember the great names and deeds of the past because they are great. Significant. The ancients are no different from us. How they faced the same problems that we do today is incredibly valuable, both the “do this” lessons and the “don’t do that”. Remembering them is not endorsing them. I can champion the memory and influence of Junipero Serra without being either Catholic, a Spaniard or a militant Inquisitor. Brandon Hill and his fellow children–I cannot call then students, they were not at university to learn–are so drenched in grievance-mongering and Convergence that they would erase the past in favor of the all-consuming Present. They think history has nothing to teach them. They think so long as there’s a book somewhere with this stuff written down, that they can safely forget the book’s title.

They are cultural arsonists, torching history because they like pretty flames.

Such an attitude is incapable of learning beyond the level of training a chimp to ride a bicycle. Brandon Hill should have been expelled and the Amerind whiners should have been laughed (and escorted) off the campus with their demands stuffed up their kiesters.

But no, modern faculty and staff live in fear of their own students.

 

Tiptoeing Through Their Own Minefield

Doncha love it when the mainstream media encounters a story too sensational to ignore and too close to home to publish? I’ll be giving three accounts of the same story demonstrating three different ways to handle such a minefield:

1. Don’t Go There

From USA Today, CBS, NY Times & Aj Jazeera (they copypasted each other):

Six people were killed in southeast Bakersfield Wednesday evening in what Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood described as a “mass shooting.”

That includes five victims and a suspect, the sheriff said.

“This is highly unusual to have six people shot and dead in one incident,” Youngblood said. Asked if this was a mass shooting, the sheriff said “absolutely.”

Addressing the media around 8 p.m., Youngblood said the suspect went to a trucking business with his wife and confronted another male at the business, which is located on Manwell Boulevard behind Bear Mountain Sports.

The husband shot the man at the trucking company, and then turned and shot his wife. A third male who showed up at the scene was pursued and shot by the husband.

The husband then went to a residence near the corner of Breckenridge Road and Mesquite Lane where he confronted a man and a woman at a residence and shot them. Both died. He then carjacked a vehicle with a woman and child in it. The woman and child escaped.

A deputy found him driving on Edison Highway. The suspect pulled into a lot and when the deputy confronted him, he shot himself in the chest.

Hmm.

No names. Few details. Blood and guts and move along, people. Nothing to see.

2. Carefully clear and defuse

From ABC News:

https://abcnews.go.com/US/dead-shooting-california-multiple-crime-scenes-police/story?id=57788578

The suspect in a string of shootings in Bakersfield, California, that left six people dead on Wednesday has been identified as a 54-year-old man who may have been going through a divorce with his wife, according to local authorities.

Yeah, just maybe. *Gunner bets $1,000 on ‘yes’*

Investigators believe that Javier Cazarez, a legal, permanent resident of the United States, may have forced his wife to come with him to the trucking shop to confront people there, Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood said in a press conference Thursday, calling the shooting spree “very calculated.”

Heehee. What was the journalist thinking when he wrote that? They never describe white shooters in America as legal, permanent residents.

Cazarez was armed with a .50 caliber handgun, the sheriff said.

That’s almost certainly the .50AE Desert Eagle, if it’s not a revolver. A gaudy, front-heavy, nearly useless handgun that is only purchased by hulking male egos. “Don’t worry, he’s not an illegal, hey look at that HUUUGE gun!”

“The way this went down, it appeared that this was well-planned,” Youngblood said.

Cazarez’s attacks were carried out at five difference scenes, according to authorities.

Around 5:20 p.m. local time Wednesday, deputies responded to a trucking business where shots were fired, according to the Kern County Sheriff’s Department.

Cazarez then allegedly shot and killed two people, his wife and a man, Youngblood said.

His wife and her lover, he means. A little change of phrase to try and keep the dots unconnected.

Another man showed up and fired at the suspect, police said. The suspect shot and killed that person as well, police said.

Keeping the names out makes all the violence look random. This was a white knighting third party. Contrary to what you’ve heard, California DOES allow concealed carry permits. They’re hard to get in urban counties but Bakersfield, yeah, maybe.

Don’t be a white knight, guys. If you hear shots and have a firearm, you can still walk away. Just saying.

The suspect then went to a residential home, where he allegedly shot and killed two more people, according to police.

No way that was a random target. We still aren’t being told something.

The suspect then allegedly carjacked a vehicle with a woman and child inside, but they escaped and were not injured, police said.

This couldn’t have been too premeditated if Cazarez ran out of gas halfway though.

A Kern County sheriff’s deputy located Cazarez while he was driving on the highway, Youngblood said. Cazarez then pulled into a lot and shot himself in the chest, killing himself, the sheriff said.

Investigators are interviewing witnesses to try to piece together the suspect’s relationship to all the victims, Youngblood said.

Domestic violence may have also played a role in the incident, the sheriff said.

“It’s just tragic,” he said.

It’s inevitable. Give men no alternative to extreme violence and guess what the next day’s headline will be?

3. Enjoy the Fireworks

CNN for the scoop!

https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/13/us/california-shootings-multiple-dead/index.html

The shooting spree unfolded in less than 40 minutes across three locations in proximity to each other near Bakersfield, California, Kern County Sheriff Donny Youngblood said.
The gunman, identified as Javier Casarez, 54, killed himself as a sheriff’s deputy confronted him, Youngblood said.

Javier Casarez

We even get a picture of Casarez. His head is tilted up but I think he has the “cutting eyelids” warning sign. Wide, flat nose indicates tribalist attitude. Big, thick brow, strong chin reinforced with beard and (I think) vertical lines between the eyebrows suggest he’s got a forceful personality or anger problem. All head and facial hair is well-maintained so he’s mentally organized. I must admit, I’ve never seen cheek lines like those.

Along the way, the gunman stole a vehicle from a woman and her child but let them live, Youngblood said. He told the woman something to the effect of “he wasn’t a bad person,” Youngblood said.

Yeah, his car broke or something and he improvised. In hindsight, the woman and child were not in danger. Men shouldn’t white knight and certainly in this situation, women shouldn’t try to be a hero with a handbag firearm. Unless the ‘gunman’ wants you to drive into the middle of nowhere, just do what he says, ladies.

Police are investigating the relationship between the gunman and the victims. But it appears Casarez and victim Petra Maribel Bolanos De Casarez, 45, had begun to divorce about four months ago, the sheriff said. They were in “divorce proceedings” and she had recently sought a hearing related to child support and property, he said.

There it is. Why deny it? We filled in this blank two perspectives ago.

“It appears to be there’s more than just a husband and wife having a fight, because other people were targeted. There’s a reason for that, and we need to find that reason,” the sheriff said.

The pair arrived at T&T Trucking at 5:15 p.m. on Wednesday and confronted an employee identified as Manuel Contreras, the sheriff said. Casarez shot Contreras with a .50-caliber handgun and then Bolanos, Youngblood said.

She’d monkeybranched to Contreras and was trying to stick Casarez with the bill in family court. An old story in the Manosphere.

Another man, identified as Antonio Valadez, fled the building. The gunman followed him in his car to the front of a nearby hunting equipment shop and shot him, Youngblood said.

His life was over anyway so why not take out Contereas’ friend? This explains the third party showing up, if he was a “hunting equipment shop” employee reacting to capital murder at his front door.

The gunman then drove to a nearby home, where he fatally shot Eliseo Cazares, 57, and his daughter, Laura Garcia, 31, as she tried to intervene, the sheriff said.

The comment about child support above had me expecting foster parents holding his kids. Instead, I’ll guess Eliseo was his brother white-knighting for wifey, perhaps testifying on her behalf in family court, or maybe he was the foster parent and the (unharmed) kids just didn’t get mentioned. Then Laura tried to intervene in a violent dispute between men. Again, don’t play in Man World, ladies. It’s not always about male privilege.

He left the home and hijacked a vehicle with a woman and child inside, but let them go, Youngblood said. He headed to a nearby highway, where he saw a deputy and pulled over into a lot.

As the deputy drew a weapon and confronted him, the gunman shot himself fatally in the stomach, Youngblood said.

I’m glad Cazarez didn’t shoot it out with law enforcement. No good would have come of it and he still got to die with his primary targets checked off. All in all, I approve of Cazarez’ behavior. It’s hard to say he did wrong when one cannot propose a reasonable alternative.

Go MGTOW and you won’t end up like this, choosing between lifetime misery and checking out Mad Max-style.

I wonder how accurate I am? These stories can be hard to get closure on.

 

Terrorist Attacks California Republican

https://www.rt.com/usa/438227-republican-stabbing-attacker-arrested/

California man arrested for trying to stab Republican Congress candidate

Published time: 12 Sep, 2018 01:39

Alameda County police have arrested a knife-wielding man who reportedly attacked congressional candidate Rudy Peters with a switchblade after making “disparaging remarks” about the GOP.

The suspect in the assault on Peters, who was only referred to as .a political candidate for a local congressional seat. in the Alameda County Sheriff’s Office report, has been identified as Farzad Fazel, 35.

The incident unfolded on Sunday as Peters, who is vying to represent California’s 15th congressional district in the House of Representatives, was visiting the Castro Valley Fall Festival. Police was alerted to the attack in one of the vendor booths at about 3:45 pm. As officers rushed to the scene, the alleged stabber had already fled.

Very common to see political booths at a local fair. They’re usually harmless, although the anti-abortion ones can be gross.

Citing accounts by eyewitnesses, police say that Fazel had been leveling “disparaging remarks” at Peters over his political affiliation and bashing other Republican officials

A verbal argument preceded a physical altercation, during which the suspect allegedly pulled out a knife and attempted to thrust it into Peters. According to police, .no serious injuries. have resulted from the incident. The outcome of the brawl might have been worse had the switchblade not malfunctioned.

Dumbass. A malfunctioning pistol in a terrorist attack would have been shameful… but a malfunctioning knife?

Fazel was on a run not for long and was located and apprehended .a short time later. with the switchblade in his possession. He was taken into custody and charged with felony assault, criminal threat, brandishing a weapon and possession of a knife.

California isn’t as bad as the UK (facepalm). Most knives are legal here but the switchblade variety isn’t.

Peters is running against Eric Swalwell, the Democrat who currently represents the district. Swalwell praised the police for their swift action while denouncing the attack.

I strongly suspect Arab; cross-racial lines make a physiognometric read unreliable. Smooth forehead and low ears indicate impulsivity, as one would expect given the situation, but modestly-lidded eyes and tight ears indicate conformity. Jaw is masculine enough for this kind of direct action. Smirking for his mugshot is a good indicator of poor conscience, confirmed by his carrying an illegal knife when a legal one would be just as good (better for him, since straight knives can’t fricking malfunction). Conclusion, this kind of guy would normally be running a small business employing his cousins.

So, he isn’t a deranged loner and I suspect this was a crime of passion not calculation. He mouthed off to a political rival, probably lost the spat, forgot he now lives in ‘Murica not Pakistan and tried to slit the guy’s throat because why not. Now he’s smiling in police custody because his tribe is proud of him.

We’ll see what punishment he gets for this political assassination attempt. Kudos to the Alameda cops for a fast takedown.

Since we’re here, let’s look at the candidates.

HAHAAA! Trump Derangement Syndrome! No wonder the Muzzie turdfuck is smirking. I must give Peters respect for going MAGA style in Alameda County. That takes guts. I can’t decide if that’s a nervous cuckservative grin or he’s not used to smiling for the camera. His jaws & jowls suggest he can play hardball. But his eyes are hooded–that flap folding down in the upper corners–which indicate he’s suffered long-term stress. A bad frivorce is a good guess. *checks* I think Peters is the first politico to not have a picture of his wife & kids on his campaign website that I’ve ever encountered. That suggests my frivorce theory is accurate or maybe, he’s merely smart enough to not put up easy pics of his family for Antifa to hunt down. Prescient of him, if so.

I’ll be watching Peters for this election cycle with interest. Best wishes, Rudy!

Congressman Eric Swalwell August 25, 2016

Eric Swalwell. His background per Wikipedia is textbook Leftoid career politician. Large ears and upturned nose suggest good sociability. Those brow lines indicate much more determination than is normally found in such politicians. Cthulhu will eat him sooner than he expects because that determination will inevitably lead him to violate the Narrative at some point. Or maybe not; that same determination means he’s a true believer in the Narrative. He’d probably be a rising star if being born white & male wasn’t holding him back.

 

 

The Tradcon Leopard’s Spots

Vox Day clued me in to a good summary of Tradcon theology in the form of an online petition. He was cautiously optimistic. (http://voxday.blogspot.com/2018/09/statement-on-social-justice.html). Me, I see only proof that mercy is wasted on people who make bank off being wrong about Christ. The following “Statement on Social Justice & the Gospel” petition is signed by a number of notorious Tradcons including John MacArthur, Voddie Beauchamp, Jeremy Vuolo and Douglas Wilson.

…And Joseph Farah of WND.com, unfortunately. He’s one of the few journalists I have respect for. I hope that signing this was a one-time derp on his part.

This is kinda long. You can skip to “Complementarianism” for the good stuff.

https://statementonsocialjustice.com/

Introduction

In view of questionable sociological, psychological, and political theories presently permeating our culture and making inroads into Christ’s church, we wish to clarify certain key Christian doctrines and ethical principles prescribed in God’s Word. Clarity on these issues will fortify believers and churches to withstand an onslaught of dangerous and false teachings that threaten the gospel, misrepresent Scripture, and lead people away from the grace of God in Jesus Christ.

Specifically, we are deeply concerned that values borrowed from secular culture are currently undermining Scripture in the areas of race and ethnicity, manhood and womanhood, and human sexuality.

Watch, everybody! These people are so concerned about worldly influences in Christendom that they’re going to risk their 501c3 tax-exempt status to call them out!

Scripture

WE AFFIRM that the Bible is God’s Word, breathed out by him. It is inerrant, infallible, and the final authority for determining what is true (what we must believe) and what is right (how we must live). All truth claims and ethical standards must be tested by God’s final Word, which is Scripture alone.

They say this first to give themselves the illusion of legitimacy. As we’ll soon see (and already know), Tradcons are pathological liars who love to twist Scripture to accommodate the world’s convenience.

WE DENY that Christian belief, character, or conduct can be dictated by any other authority, and we deny that the postmodern ideologies derived from intersectionality, radical feminism, and critical race theory are consistent with biblical teaching. We further deny that competency to teach on any biblical issue comes from any qualification for spiritual people other than clear understanding and simple communication of what is revealed in Scripture.

So says the Credentialed, Professional Priesthood. These guys claim to be Protestants but they act Catholic in their utter refusal to give laymen a voice in the church. They might as well bury John MacArthur with his pulpit as pry it out of his deathgrip.

But Catholics are wise enough to provide alternative quality control when barring laymen from publicly critiquing priests. Closed priesthoods for independent churches is the worst of both worlds.

Imago Dei

WE AFFIRM that God created every person equally in his own image. As divine image-bearers, all people have inestimable value and dignity before God and deserve honor, respect and protection. Everyone has been created by God and for God.

This is the standard foundation that Tradcons build their lies upon, that because God shows no favoritism we’re all equally intelligent, wise, skilled and capable. Obviously false. We also do not deserve honor, respect or protection. Being made in God’s image gives us value despite that unworthiness. Neither has everyone been created for God. He has made many people to be His enemies… the devil first among them, their spiritual father.

WE DENY that God-given roles, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, religion, sex or physical condition or any other property of a person either negates or contributes to that individual’s worth as an image-bearer of God.

So begins the “women are people, too” conflation with “women are men, too”. God made women inferior to men in order to demonstrate humanity’s need for Him. Women are not worthy of a husband. Humans are not worthy of Christ. God likes us despite our unworthiness and He expects a similar attitude from the fathers and husbands who relate with women.

Justice

WE AFFIRM that since he is holy, righteous, and just, God requires those who bear his image to live justly in the world. This includes showing appropriate respect to every person and giving to each one what he or she is due. We affirm that societies must establish laws to correct injustices that have been imposed through cultural prejudice.

I thought the signers of this statement were OPPOSING Social Justice??? Because that boldface is almost the exact definition of Convergence.

I’m suddenly tempted to stop by random churches to use their bathrooms and see if they’re gender-fluid, to correct the ancient cultural prejudices of men peeing while standing.

WE DENY that true justice can be culturally defined or that standards of justice that are merely socially constructed can be imposed with the same authority as those that are derived from Scripture. We further deny that Christians can live justly in the world under any principles other than the biblical standard of righteousness. Relativism, socially-constructed standards of truth or morality, and notions of virtue and vice that are constantly in flux cannot result in authentic justice.

Morons. God’s Will cannot be applied directly. “Put the murderer to death” is God’s will for all societies but the method of determining guilt, form of execution and so on is undefined. The ideal situation, from the Prot perspective, is that government is a secular implementation of Christian principles. That means culture and social constructs play a significant, natural part in justice.

What they’re doing here is undermining race and cultural distinctions as unimportant, since they’re merely “socially constructed”. This notion of universality is critical to forming the world gov’t destined to be led by Satan. If ten nations have ten different yet legitimate ways to be holy & just than they cannot have a unified government. No, first all nations must be reduced to the same grey good so that one-size-fits-one-size gov’t becomes possible.

“Social constructs”, heh. It’s a bad sign when one uses the Liar’s language unironically.

God.s Law

WE AFFIRM that God’s law, as summarized in the ten commandments, more succinctly summarized in the two great commandments, and manifested in Jesus Christ, is the only standard of unchanging righteousness. Violation of that law is what constitutes sin.

WE DENY that any obligation that does not arise from God’s commandments can be legitimately imposed on Christians as a prescription for righteous living. We further deny the legitimacy of any charge of sin or call to repentance that does not arise from a violation of God’s commandments.

Consider public nudity. God never directly forbade it (although that was His very first comment post-Fall) and clothing interferes with some definitions of “loving your neighbor” so Tradcons should have no trouble with fat, naked rednecks in their pews. Of course, that’s sexually unacceptable and inconsistent with God’s will… but what is appropriate clothing? It isn’t defined in the Ten Commandments or by the word “modesty”. Pacific Islanders with bare boobs were chaste by their standards; corsets didn’t slow down the whores of Victorian England. My kilt is not a skirt.

See? Morally acceptable clothing is NECESSARILY culturally dependent.

Furthermore, the idea that refusing to obey extra-Biblical laws cannot be sin is directly refuted by Paul in his writings on the morality of food. 1 Corinthians 8:9-13: “Be careful, however, that the exercise of your rights does not become a stumbling block to the weak. For if someone with a weak conscience sees you, with all your knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, won’t that person be emboldened to eat what is sacrificed to idols? So this weak brother or sister, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. When you sin against them in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother or sister to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause them to fall.

Sin

WE AFFIRM that all people are connected to Adam both naturally and federally. Therefore, because of original sin everyone is born under the curse of God’s law and all break his commandments through sin. There is no difference in the condition of sinners due to age, ethnicity, or sex. All are depraved in all their faculties and all stand condemned before God’s law. All human relationships, systems, and institutions have been affected by sin.

Ooh! Ooh! They mentioned Original Sin! Well, no, only its consequences. Nothing about Eve disobeying God & Adam followed by Adam following Eve’s lead.

“Both naturally and federally”? I’ve not heard it put that way before.

WE DENY that, other than the previously stated connection to Adam, any person is morally culpable for another person’s sin. Although families, groups, and nations can sin collectively, and cultures can be predisposed to particular sins, subsequent generations share the collective guilt of their ancestors only if they approve and embrace (or attempt to justify) those sins. Before God each person must repent and confess his or her own sins in order to receive forgiveness. We further deny that one’s ethnicity establishes any necessary connection to any particular sin.

They wouldn’t be Tradcons if they didn’t flagrantly contradict themselves on occasion. You’re only responsible for your own sin, ever, except that some sins are collective, and some sins are society’s culture’s fault, and you’re guilty of other people’s sins if you approve of them and you inherited sin from Adam. But the rest is yours alone!

It’s possible to approve of other peoples’ sins without being guilty of them. I approve of porn. God does not. I accept God’s standard as the mandatory ideal but having lived through a young adulthood in which sex was weaponized as a tool of slavery & threatpoint against men, I personally do not fault men for resorting to porn as the only plausible solution to the death of licit sexual opportunities.

God will fault them but I will not. Especially the unbelievers who don’t have that standard to endure anyway. Does this make me guilty of their porn usage? No.

Gospel

WE AFFIRM that the gospel is the divinely-revealed message concerning the person and work of Jesus Christ.especially his virgin birth, righteous life, substitutionary sacrifice, atoning death, and bodily resurrection.revealing who he is and what he has done with the promise that he will save anyone and everyone who turns from sin by trusting him as Lord.

That’s the Gospel until the last bit: “who turns from sin by trusting him as Lord.” That is heresy. The word they should be using here is repentance. We are not saved by faith alone; the price is repentance, turning against our evil nature and deeds. Trusting Christ to resurrect us is our motivation for doing so, not our method of doing so. “Trusting him as Lord”? Demons can do that.

WE DENY that anything else, whether works to be performed or opinions to be held, can be added to the gospel without perverting it into another gospel. This also means that implications and applications of the gospel, such as the obligation to live justly in the world, though legitimate and important in their own right, are not definitional components of the gospel.

This is why Tradcons don’t like the concept of repentance. They don’t want to accept that people, specifically women, must constantly work to control their evil tendencies. It’s hard to blame husbands for their wives’ misconduct when they have to first check if wifey is being obedient… very rare in Current Year.

Also, because Tradcons are Moralistic Therapeutic Deists. Basically, they use religion as a means to a happy life instead of a path to confronting the dark truth of human rebellion. Boyfriend Jesus wants you to be fulfilled, not hurting! But the Crucified Jesus promises His followers that we will suffer painfully if we follow Him. He died on a Cross so we could be next, not so that we wouldn’t have to.

Salvation

WE AFFIRM that salvation is granted by God’s grace alone received through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. Every believer is united to Christ, justified before God, and adopted into his family. Thus, in God’s eyes there is no difference in spiritual value or worth among those who are in Christ. Further, all who are united to Christ are also united to one another regardless of age, ethnicity, or sex. All believers are being conformed to the image of Christ. By God’s regenerating and sanctifying grace all believers will be brought to a final glorified, sinless state of perfection in the day of Jesus Christ.

Jesus showed favoritism towards the Jews… still does to this day even though they hate Him. Paul also showed favoritism towards his own people. Will the Tradcons claim these guys were wrong to do that, or is putting one’ people first acceptable, Christlike conduct?

We ARE NOT united with EACH OTHER in Christ. This should be blatantly obvious. Prots and Cats have trouble coexisting for many valid reasons even though we’re both devout. In Scripture, Paul and Barnabas couldn’t get along. Jesus and Peter had some words, too, and how about that Oedipus guy in Corinthians? And that’s before we get to unbelievers.

We’ll get along in Heaven because only then will we be able to get along. Today, we are spiritually blind. Blame either God or Adam but it’s true, as is the adage of the blind leading the blind.

WE DENY that salvation can be received in any other way. We also deny that salvation renders any Christian free from all remaining sin or immune from even grievous sin in this life. We further deny that ethnicity excludes anyone from understanding the gospel, nor does anyone’s ethnic or cultural heritage mitigate or remove the duty to repent and believe.

This is a strawman. Nobody claims Africans can’t be Christians. What we claim is Africans, as a race, can’t thrive in or meaningfully contribute to a First World society. There’s a lot of evidence for that. And it’s for the best if the Chinese keep to China.

The Church

WE AFFIRM that the primary role of the church is to worship God through the preaching of his word, teaching sound doctrine, observing baptism and the Lord’s Supper, refuting those who contradict, equipping the saints, and evangelizing the lost. We affirm that when the primacy of the gospel is maintained that this often has a positive effect on the culture in which various societal ills are mollified. We affirm that, under the lordship of Christ, we are to obey the governing authorities established by God and pray for civil leaders.

WE DENY that political or social activism should be viewed as integral components of the gospel or primary to the mission of the church. Though believers can and should utilize all lawful means that God has providentially established to have some effect on the laws of a society, we deny that these activities are either evidence of saving faith or constitute a central part of the church’s mission given to her by Jesus Christ, her head. We deny that laws or regulations possess any inherent power to change sinful hearts.

Classic cuckservatism. The Church’s role is to go through the motions of worship while doing as it’s told by the Elites? No. The Church’s role is the Salt of the Earth. We fight an eternal war against moral rot. Evildoers in authority are the most notorious source of that rot but the Tradcon refuses to confront society’s leaders as a matter of First Principles. Holding that belief while preaching about Jesus facing the Pharisees is a remarkable feat of self-delusion.

“We deny that laws or regulations possess any inherent power to change sinful hearts.” Translation, only Professional Pastors(tm) are capable of presenting the Gospel. Tradcons have unshakable faith in the power of credentialism, generally not having any other life experience to rely on.

Even broken as it is, I daresay that today’s prison-industrial complex straightens out more human souls than all the signers of this Statement. Tradcons preach the Gospel at people like it’s a magic spell. Just look at their church marquees: Jesus loves you! Jesus died for you! As if that’s going to convict someone of the evil they’ve done half as well as a judge & jury.

Though believers can and should utilize all lawful means that God has providentially established to have some effect on the laws of a society, we deny that these activities are either evidence of saving faith or constitute a central part of the church’s mission...” Translation: we refuse to violate 501c3 status and that refusal does not make us disobedient to Christ. Speak of the heretic:

Heresy

WE AFFIRM that heresy is a denial of or departure from a doctrine that is essential to the Christian faith. We further affirm that heresy often involves the replacement of key, essential truths with variant concepts, or the elevation of non-essentials to the status of essentials. To embrace heresy is to depart from the faith once delivered to the saints and thus to be on a path toward spiritual destruction. We affirm that the accusation of heresy should be reserved for those departures from Christian truth that destroy the weight-bearing doctrines of the redemptive core of Scripture. We affirm that accusations of heresy should be accompanied with clear evidence of such destructive beliefs.

WE DENY that the charge of heresy can be legitimately brought against every failure to achieve perfect conformity to all that is implied in sincere faith in the gospel.

Boldface mine. No, you false Christians, the accusation of heresy is valid for ALL departures from Scriptural basics. Particularly, you twist God’s teachings on the marital roles of husband and wife with the justification of “forrrr the chillllldren!” That will not deflect God’s wrath from you. Neither will your stubborn insistence on maintaining good relations with the taxman endear you to your Savior. Good intentions count for nothing. If you lie about God or twist His teachings then you will go to Hell even if good came from it.

Sexuality and Marriage

WE AFFIRM that God created mankind male and female and that this divinely determined distinction is good, proper, and to be celebrated. Maleness and femaleness are biologically determined at conception and are not subject to change. The curse of sin results in sinful, disordered affections that manifest in some people as same-sex attraction. Salvation grants sanctifying power to renounce such dishonorable affections as sinful and to mortify them by the Spirit. We further affirm that God’s design for marriage is that one woman and one man live in a one-flesh, covenantal, sexual relationship until separated by death. Those who lack the desire or opportunity for marriage are called to serve God in singleness and chastity. This is as noble a calling as marriage.

E.V.I.L. Say it with me: “evil”. Those who reject sexual dimorphism are evil, not wrong, not “curse of sin manifesting as same-sex attraction”. I can’t give these chuckleheads credit for admitting gender is genetic because they claim salvation will magically fix homosexual tendencies. No need to demand legalization of conversion therapy! God will fix you so I don’t have to!

Conspicuously missing is that fact that Christian marriage is not a marriage of equals. The husband holds total authority. The wife shall submit to him in all things. Remember how this long-winded statement began by saying we’re all equal in Christ? Here’s the reason: the Tradcons want to twist that into equality WITH Christ.

“Those who lack the desire or opportunity for marriage are called to serve God in singleness and chastity. This is as noble a calling as marriage.” Bold words, coming from the very clergy who killed the opportunity for marriage via neglect and raising their daughters to never trust a husband.

WE DENY that human sexuality is a socially constructed concept. We also deny that one’s sex can be fluid. We reject “gay Christian” as a legitimate biblical category. We further deny that any kind of partnership or union can properly be called marriage other than one man and one woman in lifelong covenant together. We further deny that people should be identified as “sexual minorities..which serves as a cultural classification rather than one that honors the image-bearing character of human sexuality as created by God.

Sexual minorities? Is that in reference to women being ordered to submit to husbands or sexual freaks worrying they have inadequate political representation?

Affirming basic biology makes Tradcons as moral as the insane atheist and globalist Jordan Peterson.

Complementarianism

WE AFFIRM that God created mankind both male and female with inherent biological and personal distinctions between them and that these created differences are good, proper, and beautiful. Though there is no difference between men and women before God’s law or as recipients of his saving grace, we affirm that God has designed men and women with distinct traits and to fulfill distinct roles. These differences are most clearly defined in marriage and the church, but are not irrelevant in other spheres of life. In marriage the husband is to lead, love, and safeguard his wife and the wife is to respect and be submissive to her husband in all things lawful. In the church, qualified men alone are to lead as pastors/elders/bishops and preach to and teach the whole congregation. We further affirm that the image of God is expressed most fully and beautifully in human society when men and women walk in obedience to their God-ordained roles and serve according to their God-given gifts.

This must be the part that gave Vox Day hope. It reads like an improvement over the usual complementariam drivel. However, I see red flags.

1. “Biological and personal distinctions” is not sexual distinctions. Men and women are dramatically and systematically different, not just body parts and personal “spiritual gifts”, and these differences extend far beyond God deciding who is in charge of a specific type of relationship.

2. “the husband is to lead, love, and safeguard his wife”? No. No safeguarding. Men treat women as their own bodies. I have frequently put my body in danger, sometimes for work, sometimes pleasure and sometimes necessity. I broke it several times. I am not required by God to treat a wife better than that. No martyrs for Barbie.

3. “the wife is to respect and be submissive to her husband in all things lawful.” Nice addition, fuckwits. All things LAWFUL? That’s still conditional male headship, which is no headship at all. The Biblical command is “obey in all things and call him Master”.

4. “In the church, qualified men alone are to lead as pastors/elders/bishops and preach to and teach the whole congregation.” Qualified men alone? What about priesthood of the believer? There are requirements to be an elder but the only requirement for teaching & preaching is not being a new believer. Again with the deathgrip on the pulpit.

Furthermore, the Biblical requirement is for older women to teach the younger. Not Mister Pastor PhD.

5. “men and women walk in obedience to their God-ordained roles”? Men obey God. Women obey men. Until Tradcons teach this, they’re playing the shell game of claiming wifey shouldn’t submit because Hubby isn’t trying hard enough.

Race / Ethnicity

WE AFFIRM God made all people from one man. Though people often can be distinguished by different ethnicities and nationalities, they are ontological equals before God in both creation and redemption. “Race” is not a biblical category, but rather a social construct that often has been used to classify groups of people in terms of inferiority and superiority. All that is good, honest, just, and beautiful in various ethnic backgrounds and experiences can be celebrated as the fruit of God’s grace. All sinful actions and their results (including evils perpetrated between and upon ethnic groups by others) are to be confessed as sinful, repented of, and repudiated.

More Tradcon self-contradiction. All races are God-created beautiful in their own particular ways and all races are social constructs of oppression. Which is it?

How did the Church fill up with these delusional morons? “If it isn’t a Bible category then it’s a social construct.” “If it isn’t in my math textbook then it can’t be true.”

WE DENY that Christians should segregate themselves into racial groups or regard racial identity above, or even equal to, their identity in Christ. We deny that any divisions between people groups (from an unstated attitude of superiority to an overt spirit of resentment) have any legitimate place in the fellowship of the redeemed. We reject any teaching that encourages racial groups to view themselves as privileged oppressors or entitled victims of oppression. While we are to weep with those who weep, we deny that a person’s feelings of offense or oppression necessarily prove that someone else is guilty of sinful behaviors, oppression, or prejudice.

That answers my question. We should erase all racial distinctions from existence via mandatory, institutional miscegenation even though existing racial distinctions are “the fruit of God’s grace”. By their own logic, these people are cultural vandals destroying God’s creation of the races and nations.

The OT is chock-full of racial distinctions, many of them God-mandated. Citation needed for God now requiring interbreeding.

Meanwhile, these American citizens are calling for the violation of the First Amendment right to freedom of association by denying that Christians should be allowed to voluntarily segregate. No wonder conservatives don’t conserve the Constitution: they don’t like it.

So, Tradcons, about that Korean church down the street. You going to picket them for racially self-segregating? God-Damned hypocrites.

Culture

WE AFFIRM that some cultures operate on assumptions that are inherently better than those of other cultures because of the biblical truths that inform those worldviews that have produced these distinct assumptions. Those elements of a given culture that reflect divine revelation should be celebrated and promoted. But the various cultures out of which we have been called all have features that are worldly and sinful.and therefore those sinful features should be repudiated for the honor of Christ. We affirm that whatever evil influences to which we have been subjected via our culture can be.and must be.overcome through conversion and the training of both mind and heart through biblical truth.

I see they finally used the word “evil”, but not in relation to humans. Only “cultures” that must be overcome on general principles of “biblical truth”. Citation needed for which New Testament culture is the valid one… oh. Right. Judeo-Christianity. Which even the Jews hate.

WE DENY that individuals and sub-groups in any culture are unable, by God’s grace, to rise above whatever moral defects or spiritual deficiencies have been engendered or encouraged by their respective cultures.

If they’re able to and don’t then they should be punished for doing evil. If they’re unable then no punishment but we can’t live together; the Scorpion and the Frog. Which is it, Tradcons? All those black criminals filling our prisons, do they belong there or should they go back to Liberia?

Racism

WE AFFIRM that racism is a sin rooted in pride and malice which must be condemned and renounced by all who would honor the image of God in all people. Such racial sin can subtly or overtly manifest itself as racial animosity or racial vainglory. Such sinful prejudice or partiality falls short of God’s revealed will and violates the royal law of love. We affirm that virtually all cultures, including our own, at times contain laws and systems that foster racist attitudes and policies.

Racism is rooted in genetics and humans being a social species. It’s a very simple organization principle.

Is it wrong to care more for your own people than other peoples? Should a man be punished for caring more about his son than the neighbor’s son who is not his responsibility? Should we seek the welfare of other countries at the loss of our own? Of course not. First we help ourselves, then we are best able to help others. That’s all that racism is.

WE DENY that treating people with sinful partiality or prejudice is consistent with biblical Christianity.

Like Christ did with the Syrophoenician woman? He called her a dog.

We deny that only those in positions of power are capable of racism, or that individuals of any particular ethnic groups are incapable of racism.

Act like it. Picket those Korean churches. If the rooftop people scare you then picket the Hispanic churches. The black churches. The Amish churches. But no, you only hate whites. Your own people. You race traitors abandoned your own people, your own children to show how much you care about foreigners that you have no responsibility for. Per 1 Timothy 5:8, that makes you worse than an unbeliever. Be ashamed.

We deny that systemic racism is in any way compatible with the core principles of historic evangelical convictions. We deny that the Bible can be legitimately used to foster or justify partiality, prejudice, or contempt toward other ethnicities.

Like the ancient Cretans? Or the Jews accepting the bloodguilt of murdering God? “You foolish Galatians!”?

Once again, are these people trying to OPPOSE Social Justice?

We deny that the contemporary evangelical movement has any deliberate agenda to elevate one ethnic group and subjugate another.

The CONTEMPORARY evangelical movement wants white people extinct. Witness its support for migrants from everywhere except South African Boers.

And we emphatically deny that lectures on social issues (or activism aimed at reshaping the wider culture) are as vital to the life and health of the church as the preaching of the gospel and the exposition of Scripture. Historically, such things tend to become distractions that inevitably lead to departures from the gospel.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? THIS ENTIRE STATEMENT HAS BEEN A LECTURE ON SOCIAL ISSUES! YOU WROTE THIS TO RESHAPE WIDER CULTURE BY DEMANDING SPECIFIC OUTCOMES ON RACISM AND SEXUAL EQUALITY! If you think the Church’s purpose is reading Scripture out loud instead of social commentary then why did you write this? Which is it? Are you getting involved in social issues because they’re intruding into Church affairs or are you stopping your jobs to enjoy a distraction?

Stop. Contradicting. Yourselves.

Addendum

For more detailed consideration of some of the issues raised in this statement, we recommend the following two documents:

1987 Danvers Statement
2017 Nashville Statement

Presented without comment.

In conclusion, not only did they not confront any Social Justice priorities with this Statement, they didn’t say a single thing to risk their tax-exempt status. All of the “values borrowed from secular culture that are currently undermining Scripture” are the ones threatening the progress of Social Justice.

Carry on.

Teenage Techie Ninja Slackers

Wandering the ‘Net, I came across this little gem of a paragraph tucked deep in an old movie review of “The Tuxedo”. Ah, Jackie Chan, you were a great way to spend the 1980s. Hollywood has many action movie actors but you were the one and only action movie blooper actor.

Anyway,

http://www.jamesbowman.net/reviewDetail.asp?pubID=1262

Having taken away the only reason for watching a Jackie Chan movie, namely the authenticity of Jackie Chan himself, what have the filmmakers given us in return? Teenage wish-fulfilment of a kind increasingly familiar in action pictures these days. In XXX, for instance, the charm of the scenario lies in the idea that lazy, undisciplined slackers like, well, moi, can wander in off the street and instantly outperform the highly trained secret agents that were the role models of yesteryear. Mr Chan now lends his own highly disciplined physical skills to a similar imposture: that enough of the right technology can render skill and discipline unnecessary. Isn.t this, by the way, an attitude which was recently being talked of as having made American intelligence gathering in many dangerous parts of the world less effective than it should be?

Actually no, this is the traditional American attitude in which a bunch of marginally literate frontier hicks thought they could live their own lives better than an established and respectable authority could tell them how. We were right and to this very hour, we amateur morons ROUTINELY outperform licensed, credentialed and experienced professionals. Granted, the American intelligence network sets a low bar by trying to assist foreign threats to America instead of thwarting them like it’s supposed to, but Elites always like to play God.

More than that, Bowman’s attitude is a common one towards the superhero genre of fiction/art. Random people get superpowered to the point of being able to dictate terms to the Powers That Be? How can we be interested in such an idea, let alone fascinated?

1. Because it’s true. Like Jackie Chan’s Space Marine Tux, modern technology has allowed people to be capable of heroic feats. Few of the pivotal inventions of the 18-20th Centuries came from government think tanks or corporate research parks. All I needed to be a hard-hitting investigative journalist was an internet connection and lazy afternoons… and I do a better job of it than J-school graduates.

2. Because people want power over their own lives. When faraway tyrants yank our chain, we want to yank back, and the first step in doing so is to believe it’s possible to do so. In a bygone era, that was called the “Can do” attitude and it made the impossible happen.

3. Because nobody wants to fantasize himself an arrogant, self-righteous Elite of proper grooming. Even John McCain liked to pretend he was a war hero instead of a soul-mortgaged Corruptocrat.

4. Because nobody outside a bureaucracy has fantasies of reaching fame and fortune by punching the clock and paying the fees. It’s called Dungeons & Dragons, not Taxes & Training.

5. Because we live in a spiritual war that one cannot be “educated” for. Learn your trade and do it well but the important aspects of life are learned only through experience. Few come to Christianity just because it’s the factually correct religion. The endurance of suffering and despair gets stifled in the history books. Indeed, the problem of evil isn’t that evil is hard to find or poorly understood. It’s that evil is fun and rewarding! You don’t need a credential to have a good time at someone else’s expense.

It’s a good sign that young men are relearning to find inspiration in normal characters performing extraordinary feats. That has been America from the beginning. The power itself is just a tool. Archimedes’ Lever. The real question has always been, what will you do with the power you’re given?

 

Too Late To Bail Out

Continuing its unprecedented, hard-Left restructuring of human life in California, the state gov’t just enacted the end of cash bail in the entire criminal justice system, ostensibly because the chance to make bail “hurt the poor” but actually because Barbie is tired of paying for Chad’s release.

California Gov. Jerry Brown signs overhaul of bail system, saying now ‘rich and poor alike are treated fairly’

http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-brown-signs-bail-reform-20180828-story.html

By Jazmine Ulloa, 28 August 2018

California Gov. Jerry Brown has championed legislation and ballot measures downgrading drug crimes, expanding chances of early release for prisoners and easing punishment for juvenile offenders.

While hosting on of America’s most generous frivorce-industrial complexes….

On Tuesday, he ushered in one of the most sweeping criminal justice reforms of his administration, signing a bill abolishing the state’s current money bail system, and replacing it with one that grants judges greater power to decide who should remain incarcerated ahead of trial.

The legislation virtually eliminates the payment of money as a condition of release. Under last-minute changes to the proposal, judges will have greater power to decide which people are a danger to the community and should be held without possibility of release in a practice known as “preventive detention..

Brown first urged the Legislature to take on bail reform decades ago, calling it a “tax on poor people” in his 1979 State of the State address. The new law puts California at the forefront of a national push to stop courts from imposing a heavy financial burden on defendants before they have faced a jury.

Mister Brown, that lie would have been more plausible if you weren’t also reducing criminal sentences and otherwise preventing “poor people” from bearing heavy burdens after facing a jury.

Poverty is not a virtue. Wealth is not a crime.

Supporters of the change . who include top state officials, judges, probation officers and civil rights groups . hailed what they called a shift away from a pretrial system based on wealth to one focused on public safety.

….For too long, our system has allowed the wealthy to purchase their freedom regardless of their risk, while the poor who pose no danger languish in jail,. Assemblyman Rob Bonta (D-Alameda), who co-authored the bill, said Friday. .No more. Freedom and liberty should never be pay-to-play..

The bail system is based on risk, not wealth, and the cost of bail is set to either assure the person will show up or cover the cost of hunting him down and reeling him in. If the bail system’s original purpose was to incarcerate the poor without trial, as these clowns imply, then why were bail bondsmen ever allowed to post in the person’s place? The wealthy don’t use bondsmen. The bondmen are there to help the poor make bail and Assemblyman Bonta just law-hammered them out of business forever.

In fact, if the motivation here is only to “protect the poor” then why not grant automatic release to everybody earning under the poverty line? What’s Sacramento’s real motive?

But the final bill didn’t satisfy some early backers, who complained that the final version of the legislation would allow judges to incarcerate more people, and did not include enough oversight over risk-assessment tools found to be biased against communities of color.

.No one should be in jail because they are too poor to afford bail, but neither should they be torn apart from their family because of unjust preventative detention,. said a statement from American Civil Liberties Union directors Abdi Soltani in Northern California, Hector Villagra in Southern California and Norma Ch?vez Peterson, representing San Diego and Imperial counties.

John Raphling, a senior researcher with the nonprofit Human Rights Watch, said the law replaced an unfair system with a potentially worse one, .empowering judges to take away our liberty based on biased algorithms and the judges. own subjective choices, with no standards and no due process..

Raphling gets it. The ACLU hinted at it with their concern for “families”. The goal is (extra-)judicial empowerment based upon State decrees to local governments. Always a bad idea. Not everybody can make bail but at least the chance is there. You now have fewer legal options when arrested because the government is trying to help you.

Let’s dig deeper into Senate Bill 10. All boldfaces are mine for emphasis:

SB 10, Hertzberg. Pretrial release or detention: pretrial services.

This bill would, as of October 1, 2019, repeal existing laws regarding bail and require that any remaining references to bail refer to the procedures specified in the bill.

This bill would require, commencing October 1, 2019, persons arrested and detained to be subject to a pretrial risk assessment conducted by Pretrial Assessment Services, which the bill would define as an entity, division, or program that is assigned the responsibility to assess the risk level of persons charged with the commission of a crime, report the results of the risk determination to the court, and make recommendations for conditions of release of individuals pending adjudication of their criminal case. The bill would require the courts to establish pretrial assessment services, and would authorize the services to be performed by court employees or through a contract with a local public agency, as specified. The bill would require, if no local agency will agree to perform the pretrial assessments, and if the court elects not to perform the assessments, that the court may contract with a new local pretrial assessment services agency established specifically to perform the role.

The bill would require a person arrested or detained for a misdemeanor, except as specified, to be booked and released without being required to submit to a risk assessment by Pretrial Assessment Services. The bill would authorize Pretrial Assessment Services to release a person assessed as being a low risk, as defined, on his or her own recognizance, as specified. The bill would additionally require a superior court to adopt a rule authorizing Pretrial Assessment Services to release persons assessed as being a medium risk, as defined, on his or her own recognizance. The bill would prohibit Pretrial Assessment Services from releasing persons who meet specified conditions. If a person is not released, the bill would authorize the court to conduct a prearraignment review and release the person. The bill would allow the court to detain the person pending arraignment if there is a substantial likelihood that no condition or combination of conditions of pretrial supervision will reasonably assure public safety or the appearance of the person in court.

So, if you do a misdemeanor then you walk free until your trial starts. If this new agency, Pretrial Assessment Services says you’re a low risk then you walk free. If PAS says you’re a medium risk, you walk free unless certain conditions are met (see below) or the prosecutor puts in overtime.

I had wondered what possessed those Taos County, New Mexico judges to release those Muslim terrorist child abusers with nothing but a promise that they’ll return for trial. Seems this “only One Percenters need to go to jail, crime is society’s fault” attitude has been making the rounds in Leftoid culture for some time now.

The bill would require the victim of the crime to be given notice of the arraignment by the prosecution and a chance to be heard on the matter of the defendant’s custody status. By imposing additional duties on local prosecutors, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would create a presumption that the court will release the defendant on his or her own recognizance at arraignment with the least restrictive nonmonetary conditions that will reasonably assure public safety and the defendant’s return to court.

Specifically, Penal Code 1320.9(b) states “The district attorney shall make a reasonable effort to contact the victim for comment on the person’s custody status.” Isn’t criminal justice supposed to be impartial? Why does the victim’s opinion of the person he’s pressing charges against need to be heard? Because “he” might be a “she”… and Barbie’s input will ensure Sexy Alpha goes free while Unsexy Beta gets punished.

Article 4. Release by Pretrial Assessment Services

(b) Pretrial Assessment Services, using the information obtained pursuant to this section and Section 1320.9, and having assessed a person as having a low risk to public safety and low risk of failure to appear in court, shall release a low-risk person on his or her own recognizance, prior to arraignment, without review by the court, and with the least restrictive nonmonetary condition or combination of conditions that will reasonably assure public safety and the person’s return to court. This subdivision does not apply to a person booked and released under Section 1320.8 or a person who is ineligible for consideration for release prior to arraignment as set forth in subdivision (e).

If PAS says you’re low risk then the judge is not allowed to stop your release.

(c) Pretrial Assessment Services shall order the release or detention of medium-risk persons in accordance with the review and release standards set forth in the local rule of court authorized under Section 1320.11. …

(d) A person shall not be required to pay for any nonmonetary condition or combination of conditions imposed pursuant to this section.

Free ankle bracelets, courtesy of the taxpayer. We’re getting rid of the bond industry that supported itself in return for a taxpayer-funded system? That’s centralized stupidity.

Note for the following, I hate, hate, HATE when bills make vague references to other sections of legislation. This is the sort of thing an investigative journalist should be running down for my review at $1 per daily paper and I would have been glad to pay it. But no, it’s up to us to keep ourselves informed. No charge.

(e) Notwithstanding subdivisions (a) and (b), Pretrial Assessment Services shall not release:

(1) A person who has been assessed in the current case by Pretrial Assessment Services using a validated risk assessment tool pursuant to Section 1320.9 and is assessed as high risk.

(2) A person arrested for an offense listed in paragraph (2) or (3) of subdivision (d) of Section 290.

The Sex Offender Registration Act.

(3) A person arrested for any of the following misdemeanor offenses:

(A) A violation of Section 273.5.

“Abandonment and Neglect of Children” but it actually means your wife/girlfriend.

“Any person who willfully inflicts corporal injury resulting in a traumatic condition upon [the following] is guilty of a felony: The offender’s spouse or former spouse; The offender’s cohabitant or former cohabitant; The offender’s fianc? or fianc?e, or someone with whom the offender has, or previously had, an engagement or dating relationship; The mother or father of the offender’s child.”

Did you “abuse” your wife? Then you’re incarcerated without the chance to make bail until your trial.

(C) A violation of Section 273.6 if the detained person is alleged to have made threats to kill or harm, engaged in violence against, or gone to the residence or the workplace of, the protected party.

Violating a protective order from the Family Court.

(D) A violation of Section 646.9.

Stalking, making threats via electronics communication and violating temporary restraining orders. Interesting: it’s legal to stalk and make credible threats during a labor strike.

(4) A person arrested for a [legitimately violent crime].

(5) A person arrested for a third offense within the past 10 years of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs or any combination thereof, or for an offense of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs with injury to another, or for an offense of driving with a blood alcohol level of .20 or above.

DUI is bad. False rape accusations are still good.

(6) A person arrested for a violation of any type of restraining order within the past five years.

We heard you the first two times.

(7) A person who has three or more prior warrants for failure to appear within the previous 12 months.

Three times? If they fail to appear two times and a cop drags them in, do they get released pending a new trial date? What are the odds the new trial date would be far enough in the future to reset that 12 month window?

On the surface, California is removing the “we only help the rich” bail industry to replace it with yet another unelected, top-down bureaucracy, the Pretrial Assessment Services (Algorithm). But in truth, feminists are removing the bail system to replace it with automatic incarceration, with no chance of release, of unsexy men who have run afoul of either restraining orders or the family courts. Meanwhile, she’s guaranteed the chance to ask for Thug Chad’s early release.

First, women wanted the taxpayer to pay the expenses of raising children. Then, women wanted the taxpayer to pay for feminine hygiene products. Now, women want the taxpayer to lock up Bucky Beta until trial while paying for Chad’s GPS bracelet.

And your state is next. California is reportedly the home of 25% of the bail bond industry so eliminating bail is likely to spread.

Dear God, Sacramento is so out of control that they’re legislating entire industries away.

 

Dwayne Dixon, Professor of Domestic Terrorism

I’ll be letting the pictures/videos do most of the talking on this but first, this followup on the vandalism of Confederate statue Silent Sam.

VIDEO: UNC prof charged with assault at Confederate statue toppling

By Rob Shimshock and Celine Ryan, 6 Sept. 2018

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill police charged a professor with simple assault during the toppling of a Confederate statue on campus, the school told Campus Reform on Wednesday.

According to the arrest report obtained by Campus Reform, Dr. Dwayne Dixon, Teaching Assistant Professor at UNC’s Asian Studies Department, received a criminal summons for simple assault and warning of trespass on August 30 after the “Silent Sam” Confederate statue toppling on August 20. Dixon is due in court on Sept. 27.

Patrick Howley, editor-in-chief at conservative BigLeaguePolitics.com alleged in a tweet that the professor assaulted him, directing readers to a video showcasing the alleged attack. The video was uploaded to YouTube by Big League Politics Reporter Peter D’Abrosca.

According to the UNC Police incident report, which Campus Reform also obtained, Dixon struck Howley in the face and head.

Video link:

The Durham County Sheriff’s Office had arrested Dixon on Aug. 18, two days before the UNC rally, charging the professor with going armed to the terror of the people and carrying a weapon at a public gathering, both misdemeanors, reported The Herald Sun. Dixon was carrying a semi-automatic rifle with at least three 30-round magazines, according to the police. The professor was released on $5,000 bail.

Da funk? In California, he would have passed the room temperature challenge for a stunt like that.

UNC police charged 18 individuals in connection with the “Silent Sam” protests on Monday, Aug. 20, Saturday, Aug. 25, and Thursday, Aug. 30, UNC spokesman Randy B. Young told Campus Reform. The school termed Dixon’s involvement a “personnel matter” and did not respond to additional inquiries regarding whether Dixon has tenure, whether he still teaches, or is on paid leave.

The police charged five protesters with resisting, delaying, or obstructing an officer, four protesters with simple assault, and three individuals with misdemeanor defacing of a public monument and misdemeanor riot, among other charges.

Good that cops are making arrests. I’d worried the investigation would have been all talk and no perp walk. The Herald Sun has more:

Durham man charged, others sought for bringing semi-automatic rifle, other weapons to rumored KKK rally

https://www.heraldsun.com/news/local/counties/durham-county/article169819572.html

By Virginia Bridges, 28 August 2017

The Durham County Sheriff’s Office has arrested one man and is looking for at least four others it says carried a semi-automatic rifle, an ax and other weapons this month in anticipation of a march by white supremacists in downtown Durham.

On Sunday the Sheriff’s Office arrested Dwayne Emil Dixon, 45. He was charged with two misdemeanors, having a weapon at a public assembly or rally and going armed to the terror of people.

Dixon was among the hundreds who gathered downtown Aug. 18, in response to a rumored white supremacists rally. A rally never materialized, but the response resulted in an hours-long demonstration in front of the old Durham County courthouse on East Main Street.

Dixon was seen carrying a semi-automatic rifle loaded with a 30-round magazine and carrying at least two other magazines, said Maj. Paul Martin.

The charges were later dropped despite evidence like this:

Here?s why a Durham man says he brought a semi-automatic rifle downtown when heard the KKK was ...

Some more pics of Prof. Dixon of UNC Chapel Hill:

#remixthediss: Resources and Reflections ? The Futures Initiative

Dixon is bottom middle. This picture is from CUNY in New York, a Futures Initiative something-something panel in 2014 or thereabouts. His bio from there:

Dwayne Dixon recently completed his PhD in Cultural Anthropology at Duke University and is a visiting instructor in Duke’s Asian and Middle Eastern Studies Department. His research is focused on young people in Tokyo and their relations to globalized urban space, their use of visual technologies, and their understandings of self amid changing conceptions of adulthood and limited economic possibility.

Sounds kinda Deep-State-ish and a university “Futures Initiative at CUNY” sounds like Soros funding. I was surprised to discover he was a Japanese enthusiast–his wife is Japanese–when he’s so politically opposed to ethnic nationalism. Not to mention, spending years bouncing around North America’s East Coast participating in organized protests and militia-type activities.

But then, taking a Japanese wife could be construed as a symbolic attack on Japanese ethno-nationalism.

Transcript:

Dwayne Dixon explains why the left is willing to use violence.

By ABC News, posted 14 Jan 2018

When the Left uses violence, in the rare instances that it happens, it’s resistance. When those actions are taken it’s because some other kind of threat has already materialized and therefore, that danger coming from far-right action justifies or necessitates some kind of intervention with force, with bodies actually engaging and trying to interrupt that danger that’s now encroaching on specific bodies.

I really want to make a distinction between attacking and destroying infrastructure or inanimate objects, and what happens to people. And in that way I would then ask us to consider how it is right-wing or far right or how fascist violence gets used.

There’s an ideology already of exclusion and so in order to exclude people, you’re going to have to push them out, and that’s already necessitating force. You have to constrain them.

Translation, we’re victims even when we’re shooting you in cold blood, and if you oppose illegal immigration then you’re forcing us to shoot you. It’s all your fault, you see. Oh yes, we’ll be seeing Dwayne Dixon in the news again.

Big League Politics has more to say about Dixon. Remember James Fields from the first Charlottesville protest, who infamously drove his car into a crowd? Dixon claimed on video that Fields did that while trying to get away from Dixon brandishing an AR-15 at Fields. Link below, but when I viewed the clip it looked like Dixon was reading a statement that may or may not have been his own. A cursory review of the journalist’s work makes me think he’s the sort of shock-jock ambush reporter that I would not have patience for, either.

Although in a humorous twist, in one of the linked videos below the journalist filmed Dixon wearing a surplus German uniform complete with national flag. He really does look like a skinhead, although I doubt a true skinhead would take an obviously ethnic wife. Or still be on the payroll of a major university after posing with his rifle and would-be terrorist buddies and being arrested for wandering the streets of Durham with a rifle in his hands searching for political opponents.

Silent Sam’s Silent Witness

Silent Sam.jpg

It’s not a secret that Antifa/Democrats/Progressive Experts, aka Leftoids, are trying to erase America’s past. U of North Carolina’s Silent Sam being a particularly visible example. An opinion piece I stumbled across on CNN accidentally let slip a couple details that you probably haven’t read in other coverage.

The toppling of a Confederate statue shows students’ strength

Fat & stubborn with a masculine attitude, judging mainly from the lips, but not crazy-eyed as I’d expected. She might have been a decent housewife before getting “educated” in “change” at UNC.

(CNN) – On Monday night, students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill toppled “Silent Sam,” the statue of a Confederate soldier that has stood on the campus for over a century. By early Tuesday morning, Chancellor Carol L. Folt, while acknowledging that the statue “was a source of frustration for many people,” had publicly rebuked the students involved, deeming their activism an act of vandalism that was both “unlawful and dangerous.” President Margaret Spellings and Board of Governors chairman Harry Smith went further, saying in a statement that “mob rule and intentional destruction of property will not be tolerated.”

Smith probably meant that. Spellings probably didn’t. Here is Chancellor Folt’s press release:

Dear Carolina Community:

As you are probably aware, a group from among an estimated crowd of 250 protesters brought down the Confederate Monument on our campus last night.

The monument has been divisive for years, and its presence has been a source of frustration for many people not only on our campus but throughout the community.

However, last night’s actions were unlawful and dangerous, and we are very fortunate that no one was injured. The police are investigating the vandalism and assessing the full extent of the damage.

I appreciate the actions taken by the police to ensure the community’s safety and will keep you informed as additional information is available.

Sincerely,

Carol L. Folt

Translation, thanks for trashing our stupid statue and don’t worry about the cops. Here’s the proof:

Then-governor Pat McCrory signed a bill in 2015 banning any government agency from removing an “object of remembrance” from public property that “commemorates an event, a person, or military service that is part of North Carolina’s history.” Smith cited this law on July 30 when he announced the Board would not take any action on the issue of Silent Sam — essentially rejecting a proposal made to the board in March to add historical context (with markers and Bluetooth interactivity, according to the Raleigh News & Observer) to the monument.

July 30, official statement that UNC gov’t was not allowed to tear down the statue. August 20, a mob of 200 vandals knocked it down. Organizing a group that size would take a couple weeks, yes? I hope the police investigation didn’t start in the morning after because that’s a really big group going after a really obvious target. Hard to believe they were entirely unaware.

Once Silent Sam was down, UNC officials carted him off and “opened a debate” on where the statue would be put. If UNC officials weren’t in league with Antifa then they would put the statue back in the same place with twice as much concrete to ensure Sam stays put. Maybe hang a few scalps around him. General Lee would have liked that.

Some of these UNC officials tried to couch their criticism of the pulling down of the statue as a safety concern, but at the heart of the matter lies a much bigger issue. UNC student activists aren’t the first to have university officials denounce rather than embrace their anti-racist activism. Given the liberal reputation of universities, that position is confusing. And it raises the question: Why are so many university administrators so quick to distance their institutions from students who are putting the university’s values and ideals into action? These official postures are perplexing, because these students are embodying exactly the sort of citizenship a university is meant to help shape: active, committed, informed, clear-eyed.

Mizz Hemmer is clearly not the sharpest knife in the drawer. UNC used a mob to do what they personally weren’t allowed to, after which they pretended to be horrified while picking out a good memory hole. The CNN censor didn’t do his job when he allowed Hemmer to accidentally raise the question of the way school officials were interacting with the “protesters”.

…As a result of student activism, however, universities became more liberal, in the broader sense of the word, after the 1960s. They grew more egalitarian, opening their doors to Jewish, non-white, non-elite, and women students. They broadened their course offerings to reflect the more diverse student body. They invited students to have a voice in university administration. And they embraced, however imperfectly, a more democratic vision of the university, emphasizing a diversity of voices and viewpoints, inquiry over dogma, and egalitarianism over hierarchy.

No, not as a result of student activism. A result of Soviet agitation, infiltration and corruption. This is documented. Any major social movement led by the young, especially women, is not lead by the young themselves… especially the women. Look behind the curtain, Hemmer, and don’t believe every sentiment that lands inside your empty, easily-led brain.

Yet that more open, inquisitive university has generally not embraced the values of an open society as readily as its students have. In part, that’s because university officials don’t just listen to students, but alumni, state lawmakers, and the wealthy. As a result, many universities remain more tradition-bound, more conservative, and more controversy-avoidant than students.

An example of her empty brain. Barbie, the Left’s “open society” refers to your girl parts, not tolerance for dissent. Silent Sam’s fall is a blaring red klaxon that your fellow students do not value an “open society” of any definition but Soros’, and the university not repairing the damage is proof of complicity, not opposition.

The issue of Confederate statues at places like UNC makes this point clear. Statues like Silent Sam are not just monuments — they are declarations, and false ones at that. They announce that soldiers fighting to preserve slavery were just as honorable as those fighting to preserve the Union. Their defenders argue they were erected as neutral historical markers rather than acts of racial terror.

More empty-brain twattle. “Hey, Lee, I’ve got a great idea. Let’s tear this country apart by murdering plantation slaves instead of merely exploiting them for cheap labor! It’ll be fun and we’ll be better off!” Nobody who stops to think about the matter can believe that slavery was the reason for the War of Northern Aggression.

In the 21st Century, college teaches you how to NOT think.

Neither of these things is true, and the students see that more clearly than administration officials. Or rather, they’re more willing to defend the university against these falsehoods than administrators are. That courage, and the devotion to both historical reality and anti-racism that it embodies, should be applauded by university officials — particularly when, as at both UNC and UVA, the students are doing more to protect the mission of the university than administrators are.

Hemmer looks forward to the Elites dropping their pretenses of law and orderly conduct, and exterminating American history and culture forever through anarchy instead of anarcho-tyranny. But her dim mind doesn’t realize, the people she hates–the culture she wants to exterminate with no restraint or mercy–is her own.

Edit 14 Sept 2018: UNC officials supervised the mob that tore down Silent Sam.

Comedy Can’t Be Funny Anymore

So Jesse David Fox claims. I can almost just link to this stuff, it’s such pure butthurt.

THE LEFT IS NOW CLAIMING THAT COMEDY NO LONGER NEEDS TO BE FUNNY

So long as it has “emotional impact.

Paul Joseph Watson | Infowars.com – SEPTEMBER 6, 2018

In an article for New York Magazine, Jesse David Fox writes, .Like Post-Rock, Post-Comedy uses the elements of comedy (be it stand-up, sitcom, or film) but without the goal of creating the traditional comedic result . laughter . instead focusing on tone, emotional impact, storytelling, and formal experimentation. The goal of being “funny” is optional for some or for the entirety of the piece..

Juicy! Let’s follow that link.

How Funny Does Comedy Need to Be?

http://www.vulture.com/2018/09/post-comedy-how-funny-does-comedy-need-to-be.html

By Jesse David Fox, 4 Sept 2018

Dayumn. Intentionally disorderly hair combined with glasses that form a sheer wall against reality are bad physiognometric indicators. His facial hair wants to be masculine without putting in the effort. A profile pic I found confirms that his chin juts out, indicating a forceful personality but other indicators such as jowls or vertical lines between the eyebrows are missing. Ears are large (above eyes & below nose) so an outward verbal orientation. His nose is large and well-defined indicating good energy levels.

This is a guy who’s unconventional because of disordered thoughts, who communicates well enough but is fearful-aggressive towards the outside world.

Why so serious? to quote a famous clown, is a question being asked about comedy more and more frequently by its consumers and by comedians themselves. To the point where some are questioning if it can even be called “comedy.”

They would be the conservatives who bought tickets.

Comedians and comedy writers are increasingly pushing the bounds of what it means for something to be a comedy in the most basic sense, rewiring the relationship between comedies and jokes. So what is comedy without jokes? It’s post-comedy.

*GQ checks Mirriam-Webster* Comedy without jokes can be “a medieval narrative that ends happily – Dante’s Divine Comedy” or what seems most relevant here, “a ludicrous or farcical event or series of events – a comedy of errors”.

Guess what, liberals, Dante beat you to unfunny comedy when he wrote about Hell.

So. Fitting.

Sure, [post-comedy] sounds pretentious; it’s a pretentious shift, especially for a form that has always seemed allergic to pretension. But it seems the best way to describe comedy is that it’s looking more like the frowning mask than the smiling one. I was confused to see some writers refer to Nanette, Hannah Gadsby’s much discussed stand-up special that deconstructed how stand-up works and passionately made a case for the shortcomings of comedy as a medium for expressing pain, as .anti-comedy.. Though it takes an antagonistic view of comedy, anti-comedy is already a thing (simply: it’s a joke that’s funny because it’s not unfunny), and it is not what Hannah Gadsby did. My colleague Matt Zoller Seitz’s term for serious comedies . the “comedy in theory. . is closer, but it’s become increasingly clear that they are comedies in practice, formally redefining what comedy is itself.

This type of work is not completely without precedent . I’m thinking of certain early SNL work (especially Tom Schiller’s short films), or Beth Lapides’s influential L.A. alternative comedy show UnCabaret, that asked comics to not do their acts and instead focus on stream-of-conscious storytelling.

That sort of thing works for reality TV because low production values are expected and it plays to the hamsters of young women: solipsism, casual sex and savage barbarians wiping their asses with their hands. Not a good look for family events.

Jesse Fox is a Leftoid, right? I bet his “stream of consciousness” leads to an ocean of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

But in the years since Louie premiered, it has not only become more common, it’s tended to dominate the conversation around comedy. It’s hard to not see this as a direct result of an era in which comedy and comedians are celebrated, but not exactly for being funny.

Because all y’all are a comedy of errors, like women in Army Rangers.

Fast forward a few months to a different person, but the same network: Dave Chappelle quits Chappelle’s Show, as the story goes, over concern that people watching (specifically white people) were laughing at the wrong parts of his jokes, obscuring the comedy’s intention. Chappelle was arguably one of the absolute biggest comedians of millennials. youth, so the conversation around his departure was particularly foundational. And while he was beloved for doing comedy, he was revered for stopping.

Hahaha! Oh wait, he wasn’t joking.

Not too long after, you got Louis C.K. being called a genius for making an often jokeless show and, on his podcast, Marc Maron showing millions that comedians are complex, fascinating creatures who just happen to make people laugh for a living. Tig Notaro got cancer. Transparent premiered. Yada yada Trump became president and comedians were placed at the front lines of the resistance, regardless of what their act entailed.

Yep, TDS! Comedians “were placed” on the front lines? No, bro, it was more like this:

Here we are. A lot of comedy over the last few years isn’t funny, and there are no signs that things are getting any funnier. These things don’t exactly happen by coincidence. In a fractured media landscape, where ratings have become less important, and more viewers are cutting cords, the industry must rely more on buzz to draw viewers to their content.

The irony here is thick and zesty.

You can see technology’s influence on comedy even more in the stand-up special. When specials were a rare occurence, the comic’s focus was on building an act that could sustain them for years. But the number of specials Netflix greenlights, and the amount of money it spends on them, is slowly subverting the fundamental structure of stand-up comedy . transforming it from a live medium to a filmed one. …

To take it a step further, like everything that came after the financial crisis of 2008, the comedy boom that kicked into high gear a few months later is colored by a distrust of institutions.

That growing distrust was a feature, not a bug of 2008-2010. We learned our institutions have no concern for our welfare. A bad time for you ‘performers’ to decide live audiences having fun were crimping your style.

And for comedy, the institution is capital-C Comedy. While Hannah Gadsby is not American, Nanette became such a sensation here because it fit so perfectly with where things were going culturally. In many ways, it felt like a continuation of recent specials that were directly about comedy and how it functions . Make Happy, Thank God for Jokes, 3 Mics (though less explicitly), Cameron Esposito’s Rape Jokes. You listen to enough comedians talk on podcasts, and you.ll hear a generation wrestling with comedy itself, and what it means to be a stand-up when there are fewer big opportunities, but more small ones.

Feminism vs Reality is what’s dividing our country, not… um… “Cameron Esposito’s Rape Jokes”?

Looking at all of this together, what I’m seeing is a shift away from comedian as provider of a service (laughs), and toward comedian as artist.

An excellent sentiment to stop with. Comedians used to provide something of service, laughter at the difficulties and absurdities of life, a brief moment of putting our troubles aside. Such laughter is an invaluable defense mechanism; the day I stop laughing at the antics of child molesters, petty tyrants and Satanists will be a very bad day.

But liberal comedians don’t want to make money helping people. They fantasize about being our masters, about filling our brains with rape jokes and proper thoughts to think… at our own expense.

A liberal is someone who is excited by the disgusting and disgusted by service to others. Humility is their nightmare. That’s what Fox’s talk about “being an artist” is about. He wants to stop serving others and serve himself instead, giving license to all the scat and splat festering in his brain and justifying it all with claiming to be new and special.

These people are so deep in rebellion, they’d rather destroy themselves doing shrill monologues instead of helping themselves by helping others. Humility and seeking the welfare of our fellow man is the Christian path, even when you make a good profit by doing so; arrogance and narcissism is the path of the unrighteous, and most will end up in Hell long before they die.

Probably the third circle.

 

Dubai Fever

Now in America thanks to an unbelievable cuck-up in medical quarantine procedures.

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/jfk-airport-plane-emirates-flight-passengers-sick-latest-updates-ill-cough-fevers-a8524096.html

An Emirates plane has been quarantined at JFK airport in New York after approximately 100 passengers and crew members reported feeling ill.

The plane, which arrived from Dubai at 9:12 am, was immediately taken to a location away from the terminal, according to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Medical personnel from the Centres for Disease Control (CDC) then boarded to assist the ailing passengers, who complained primarily of fever and coughs.

Ten of the passengers were quickly transported to the hospital, according to Eric Phillips, a spokesperson for Mayor Bill de Blasio. Nine others were reportedly feeling sick but refused medical attention.

Holy shit.

Health officials were unsure what prompted the illness, but symptoms pointed to the flu, Mr Phillips said. He added that several of the passengers boarded the plane after visiting Mecca, which is currently experiencing a flu outbreak.

HOLY shit, heh. Bring back a souvenir from your pilgrimage to Mecca!

Emirates Airlines issued a statement shortly after the plan landed, saying that 10 passengers had fallen ill and all other passengers would be allowed to disembark soon. But only about half of the passengers had exited the plane and been cleared to continue travelling by 11:30am, according to the mayor’s office.

HOLY SHIT! They let a new strain of influenza loose in USA? And that’s the best-case scenario? “Health officials were unsure what prompted the illness” so they put the symptomatic ones in the hospital and let the ones who’ve been sitting next to them for hours breathing the same recycled air walk into NYC and connecting flights…

…before they were even certain it was a mere flu strain.

One of the worst casualties of Open Borders is medical quarantine. We’ve never had the planet’s population be so mobile before and yet, our gov’t is refusing to take even the most elementary precautions against the spread of infectious disease.

Humanity is living on borrowed time. We’ve had some close calls already. You might not have heard about the contained Ebola outbreak in Dallas, Texas in 2014.

Ebola Patient in Dallas Lied on Screening Form, Liberian Airport Official Says

nytimes com/2014/10/03/world/africa/dallas-ebola-patient-thomas-duncan-airport-screening.html

By Norimitsu Onishi and Marc Santora, 2 Oct 2014

MONROVIA, Liberia . Thomas E. Duncan, the Liberian man who developed Ebola symptoms in Dallas after flying from Liberia last month, lied about his history of contact with the disease on an airport questionnaire meant to screen out passengers who might be carrying the virus and is subject to prosecution when he returns, Binyah Kesselly, chairman of the Liberia Airport Authority, said Thursday.

When Mr. Duncan flew out of Roberts International Airport in Monrovia, the Liberian capital, on Sept. 19, he answered “no” to a question about whether he had had contact with any person who might have been stricken with Ebola in the past 21 days, the maximum period of incubation for Ebola, Mr. Kesselly said.

.He lied on his form,. Mr. Kesselly said. .If he had answered truthfully, he would have been sent to secondary screening immediately and not allowed to leave..

Mr. Kesselly said Mr. Duncan would be prosecuted upon his return.

Mr. Ducan died of Ebola in the hospital but not before infecting two of the nurses caring for him. The nurses survived; one met with Prez Obama the day she was declared hemorrhagic fever-free. There was also an unrelated doctor in NYC. From Wikipedia,

On October 23, Craig Spencer, a physician who treated Ebola patients in West Africa, tested positive for Ebola at Bellevue Hospital Center after having a 100.3 ?F (37.9 ?C) fever. Officials said he was hospitalized with fever, nausea, pain, and fatigue. He had flown to New York City from Guinea within the previous ten days, and contacted the city’s Department of Health and Doctors without Borders after showing symptoms. Spencer traveled to Guinea to treat Ebola victims on September 16 and returned on October 16. Spencer had been self-monitoring for symptoms of the disease, and began to feel sluggish on October 21, but did not show any symptoms for two days. His case was the first to be diagnosed in New York. The city was trying to find people who may have been in contact with Spencer between October 21.23.

On October 22, the day before he had symptoms, Spencer rode the New York City Subway, walked on the High Line park, went to a bowling alley and a restaurant in Brooklyn, took an Uber cab to his home in Manhattan, and took a 3-mile (4.8 km) jog in Harlem near where he lived. Health officials stated it was unlikely that Spencer could have transmitted the disease through subway poles, hand railings, or via bowling balls.

The first time health officials are wrong will be epic. Back to the NYT article,

…Dr. Frieden said the focus on the way Mr. Duncan answered the question about exposure was part of a bigger and more complicated dilemma facing many nations that want to protect their own people.

.The plain truth,. he said, is that “we can’t make the risk zero until the outbreak is controlled in West Africa. What we can do is minimize the risk..

He said that in September alone, around a dozen people were prevented from boarding planes in West Africa because they had a fever. Many of them did not have Ebola, but the screening indicated the level of vigilance in West Africa.

.Should we be isolating these countries in some way?. he asked. .It is a tough question..

No, it isn’t! What is wrong with these people? Countries with very sick, very contagious people who know they’ll get free medical care if they sneak onto a plane to America should be quarantined permanently, especially if they’re politically useless. Honestly, we should outlaw all international aircraft travel simply to prevent the next Black Death from reaching our shores.

But that would be pointless without also closing our borders. How self-destructive can our leaders get?

 

MGTOW Life: Home Ownership

The popular question of renting vs owning. For Millenials which most MGTOW are, it hasn’t been working out. The following article is tragicomic in its efforts to describe the problem without noticing the pink elephants.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/07/18/most-millennials-regret-buying-home.html

Almost 70% of millennials regret buying their homes. Here’s why

By Megan Leonhardt, 19 July 2018

Millennials aren’t exactly jumping for joy after purchasing their homes.

About four in 10 millennials are already homeowners, according to a new survey of over 600 millennials (age 21-34) by Bank of the West. Yet it turns out that 68 percent of them are feeling buyer’s remorse . almost double the amount of Baby Boomers who say they have regrets.

.Millennials are so eager to become homeowners that some may be inadvertently cutting off their nose to spite their face,. says Ryan Bailey, head of Bank of the West’s retail banking.

The author blew past the first reason. 40% of age 21-34 are homeowners? Statistically, they haven’t even finished paying student debts! I bet the Millennials who didn’t overextend themselves on student debt aren’t the ones overextending themselves on a mortgage.

Here are the biggest areas of remorse.

Overspending on the down payment

Roughly four in 10 millennials felt they made poor financial choices when it came to purchasing their home. [GQ: The article title said 70%..?] Part of the problem seems to revolve around the down payment. The survey found one in three millennials dipped into their retirement accounts to pay for their homes . a trend Bailey calls “alarming.”

They’re building retirement accounts in their 20s? Mostly women, I suspect. They’re the ones who have free money flung at them in their 20s whereas Millennial men tend to not be even financially stable until their 30s when they have their career training done and accumulated the magical “five years of experience”.

To keep from getting squeezed, think about what you can afford as a monthly payment, and don’t forget to include taxes and insurance in your calculations, Danielle Hale, chief economist for Realtor.com, tells CNBC Make It.

Yep. “Danielle Hale, chief economist for Realtor.com”. A female in male space giving wisdom that no sane man could possibly need.

SLUUUT! Did she become a chief economist for a major realty outfit by giving “To keep from getting squeezed, think about what you can afford as a monthly payment” advice or by sucking Boss Cock? You can see the answer in her eyes. Attractive sluts are the only twentysomethings who already have such a fat retirement account that they can instead purchase a house with it… attractive sluts LARPing as experienced men.

Underestimating ongoing costs

When you buy a home, the expenses don’t stop once you move in.

Millennials understand basic costs, such heating and electric bills, but Bailey recommends also considering how much time and money it could take to mow the lawn, clean the house or deal with leaky faucet.

I clean my apartment and handle most leaky-faucet type issues myself because it’s either my mess or less bother than calling up the landlord and scheduling a repairman. Mow the lawn? In Commiefornia, it’s a crime to water the lawn.

Settling for something that’s not quite right

OH COME ON, BARBIE! Bitches gonna be the death of us.

Finding the right fit is as important as having the right budget when it comes to home ownership. The survey found that about half of millennials had regrets about the home itself.

One in five said they were frustrated by damages they found after moving in, while others said they discovered the house didn’t end up working well for their family.

One in five get an apology for my outburst, although not discovering problems hidden during due process is still not “settling”.

Let’s touch on some less-approved reasons why home ownership can be a bad decision these days:

1. You must know what you’re doing.

Yes, you can hire inspectors and handymen and financial advisers and realtors to ensure everything is being done right. That gets very expensive, however. Property ownership is unlikely to pay off unless YOU are the expert you need.

2. Neighborhoods can change dramatically.

From Section 8 horror stories to jobs being sent overseas to where the State Department unloads its next shipment of Somali Muslims, that dream location can become a nightmare literally overnight.

3. Frivorce means she gets the home and you get the mortgage.

4. Real Estate has been in a bubble since 2004.

Prices didn’t reset during the 2010 depression. I was looking for an opportunity myself at the time but a couple trillion dollars of TARP and other gov’t manipulations ensured it didn’t happen.

5. Death of marriage.

Now that men and women don’t often live together in the same housing unit, demand for housing has artificially doubled.

6. Illegal immigration.

Even when migrants live twenty to a room, it’s still a better life than Shittistan. Of course, illegally living twenty to a room and thus overloading the sewer system at the same time the white male engineers are kicked to the curb is how one makes a new Shittistan.

7. Baby Boomers are about to die off en masse.

John “Fuck America” McCain was only the beginning.

It’s entirely your choice whether to rent or own. Me, I see what a mess property ownership has become and am pleased to limit my risk exposure to a monthly sum with option to eject.

Perhaps someday, I’ll upgrade to an RV. Now there’s a growing job field for young MGTOWS: RV-specific mechanic. Lots of homeowners in urban Commiefornia rent their side yard to a guy in a trailer. The only infrastructure needed is water/electric hookup and an accessible bathroom. The renter maintains his own quarters so it’s an easy rental option for non-handyman homeowners.

Also, mortician and related services might be a good field to enter.

 

DNC Chairman Eric Bauman Is An SJW

Yes, yes, today I’m Captain Obvious but this has got to be the shortest-lived SJW boycott of recent history. More than that, it appears Chick-Fil-A has broken the SJWs’ will to enact boycotts in the food services industry so they deserve a shout-out for standing their ground.

BEFORE:

https://www.fresnobee.com/news/state/california/article217577065.html

Thursday, 30 August 2018

California Democratic Party Chairman Eric Bauman is calling for a boycott of In-N-Out Burger after the Irvine-based fast-food chain this week donated $25,000 to help Republicans this November.

.Et tu In-N-Out? Tens of thousands of dollars donated to the California Republican Party,. Bauman wrote on Twitter. .It’s time to #BoycottInNOut . let Trump and his cronies support these creeps.perhaps animal style!.

AFTER:

https://www.fresnobee.com/news/local/article217765155.html

Labor Day Monday, 3 Sept 2018

.There is no boycott,. Bauman said. .I put one tweet out at 10:30 at night and it turned into a whole thing. We’ve raised so much money in small donations as a result of that one tweet and so many people have engaged with that tweet, almost a million people, so it’s amazing how it became this big boycott.. …

Earlier this week, the state party’s communications director said that the boycott was Bauman’s personal view, and was not being taken as an official stance.

.Chair Bauman’s personal tweet reflects his belief that he shouldn’t support companies that support the Trump agenda,. John Vigna said in a statement.

Bauman seemed not to be taking the tweet seriously, either. He said he wasn’t even personally boycotting the fast food restaurant.

.Are you kidding me?. Bauman said, laughing. .I.m gonna buy my staff In-N-Out burgers to celebrate our victory..

ELAPSED TIME: Two weekdays.

Classic SJW behavior, exactly as Vox Day described in his books. Bauman points & shrieks and when none of his supporters join him, he pretends he wasn’t serious and why would people listen to the California DNC Chairman, anyway? Reminds me of… somebody… can’t recall…

A healthy ego would have said “I apologize for taking their lawful donation to a political rival as an existential threat”. But apologizing is exactly what you never ever do when the sharks are circling you… even when you yourself are the sharks’ leader.

Eric Bauman on the left (heh), homosexual lover Michael Andraychak on the right. Being an openly flaming homosexual explains a lot about his hatred of Christ’s followers. Were we to reclaim the halls of power, his time of sexual perversions would end.

Choose the Form of the Destructor 3!

U of California Santa Cruz admitted more students than there is housing in the area in order to pay the wages of college professors opposed to ‘urbanization’. Then, school officials asked faculty to accept students as roommates in their private homes, thereby proving that school officials do not know where Antifa goons come from.

Liberal UC Santa Cruz Asking Faculty to Take In Students Due to Housing Crisis

https://www.breitbart.com/california/2018/09/03/liberal-uc-santa-cruz-asking-faculty-to-take-in-students-due-to-housing-crisis/

by Chriss W. Street, 3 Sept 2018

The University of California Santa Cruz is asking faculty to house students . providing the ultra-liberal campus with an unplanned lesson in how building restrictions are driving a statewide housing crisis.

The Santa Cruz Sentinel reported that under a plan to make college more accessible to transfer students, UCSC offered admissions to 35,000 students this year, an increase of 1,400 graduate and 5,600 undergraduates.

With the school planning to increase enrollment by another 10,000 students by 2040, SFGate.com estimated that at the current pace of construction it would take 966 years to meet demand.

…UC Santa Cruz has lots of vacant property in a meadow, originally designated to remain undeveloped in the university’s 2005 land-use plan, that could be used to build a 2,100 dormitory beds in a development named Student Housing West.

But UC Santa Cruz humanities professor emeritus Jim Clifford has led a petition drive in the community to stop what he and his allies refer to as a radical break with the campus design, according to the Sentinel.

Jim Clifford. I suspect he has an incurable disease.

UC Santa Cruz is ranked the most liberal college in California in the annual Niche survey, based 80 percent on surveys of students. personal political leanings and 20 percent on students. perceptions of the political preferences of most students on their campus.

Why aren’t professors eager to let their students live in close proximity to them? They taught the kids everything they know, from the proper use of false rape accusations to the righteousness of hating white men.

 

Prager Doesn’t Know Leftoids

Dennis Prager has been exposed as a fraud and his PragerU is busy writing the definitive textbook on Tradcon policy, specifically the Nobody Is Left To Care edition. However, a recent series of “Explaining the Left” editorials is useful, in a correctable sense. I’ll focus on the third of the series.

https://www.dailywire.com/news/35347/prager-explaining-left-part-iii-leftism-secular-dennis-prager

PRAGER: Explaining The Left, Part III: Leftism As Secular Religion

https://www.dailywire.com/news/35347/prager-explaining-left-part-iii-leftism-secular-dennis-prager

By Dennis Prager, 1 Sept 2018

Prager is right; Leftism is a religion.

Marx saw man’s primary drive as economic, and Freud saw it as sex. But Frankl believed . correctly, in my opinion . that the greatest drive of man is meaning.

Religion, Prager. Not meaning. Prager disagreed with himself in the first three sentences.

The greatest provider of meaning for the vast majority of human beings has been religion. In the West, Christianity (and on a smaller scale, Judaism) provided nearly all people with the Bible, a divine or divinely inspired text to guide their lives; a religious community; answers to life’s fundamental questions; and, above all, meaning: A good God governs the universe; death does not end everything; and human beings were purposefully created. In addition, Christianity gave Christians a project: spread the Good News, and bring the world to Christ. And Judaism gave Jews a project: Live by God’s laws of ethics and holiness and be “a light unto the nations.”

Leftism is the search for meaning APART FROM GOD. “Fuck you, Father God” is its first and only inviolable tenet. Prager himself demonstrates Jewish Leftism here when he claims Judaism gives his people something to do, when in fact it was supposed to give his people Someone to follow.

I can speak for the Christian side about the inanity of “preach the Gospel” Tradcons. My clergy are so hopelessly out of touch that they haven’t even realized that the Great Commission has been completed. Every last corner of the planet has heard about Christ, in every language.

On dark nights, I think that the reason God has abandoned His Church is because we’ve completed our work of evangelism and must now be prevented from acting as the salt of the earth The devil can only rise to power over the Church’s dead body.

All this has disappeared for most Westerners. The Bible is regarded as myth, silly at best, malicious at worst . there is no God, certainly not the morality-giving and judging God of the Bible; there is no afterlife; human beings are a purposeless coincidence with no more intrinsic purpose than anything else in the universe. In short: This Is All There Is.

That didn’t happen in a vacuum, Prager. Many Leftists worked very hard to make God go away. Leftism isn’t filling a new void.

The answer is obvious: Find meaning elsewhere. But where? Church won’t provide it. Nor will marriage and family . increasingly, secular individuals in the West eschew marriage, and even more do not have children. It turns out, to the surprise of many, that marriage and children are religious values, not human instincts. In the West today, love and marriage (and children) go together like a horse and a carriage for faithful Catholics, Orthodox Jews, religious Mormons and evangelical Protestants . not for the secular. I know many religious families with more than four children; I do not know one secular family with more than four children (and the odds are you don’t either).

I’ve met several Chads from the ghettoes. Babies galore! Meanwhile, Prager pretends that marriage is something only the devout would value, when in fact marriage is now a risk that only the devout are forced to endure in obedience to God. Many atheists would love to have a domestic wife and kids; decrees from Pope Judas not required; but marriage is so risky that they prudently shun it. As do I myself.

The answer to the great dearth of meaning left by the death of biblical religion in the West is secular religion. The first two great secular substitutes were communism and Nazism. The first provided hundreds of millions of people with meaning; the latter provided most Germans and Austrians with meaning.

There’s only one substitute for God; the devil. It’s the same reason the only substitute for patriarchy is matriarchy, or the only substitute for order is chaos, or the only substitute for producer is consumer. Religion is a continuum, not a marketplace. Truth exists and religions can be ranked by how close they come to the light. The Leftist ranking is “not at all”.

With the fall of communism and the awareness of the extent of the communist mass murder (about 100 million noncombatants) and mass enslavement (virtually all individuals in communist countries . except for Communist Party leaders . are essentially enslaved), communism, or at least the word “communism,” fell into disrepute.

So, what were secular intellectuals to do once communism became “the god that failed”?

The answer was to create other another left-wing secular religion. And that is what leftism is: a secular meaning-giver to supplant Christianity. Left-wing religious expressions include Marxism, communism, socialism, feminism and environmentalism.

There’s only one left-wing secular religion, although it does re-brand itself occasionally. Don’t pretend your Jews haven’t had more than their share of intellectual Leftists, Prager.

Leftism’s guiding principles . notwithstanding the principles of those Christians and Jews who claim to be religious yet hold leftist views . are the antitheses of Judaism and Christianity’s guiding principles.

Now he’s right again.

…There may be a clash of civilizations between the West and Islam, but the biggest clash of civilizations is between the West and the left.

Now he’s wrong again. There’s no clash between the Left and Islam. They work together to destabilize entire nations. They share dreams of global conquest. They both enjoy raping children and ruling by mob while their handlers enjoy sultan-level comfort. They share the same location “on the spectrum”.

Prager has the Jewish habit of thinking God is a means to a good society. This blinds Prager into thinking that the Leftist error is using a motivation other than God when in fact, the Leftists want to get rid of God as an end in itself. That is how they define a good society. Leftists aren’t unable to have kids, keep promises, live with their neighbors etc…. they’re unwilling, because those habits please God.

The Left is waging a religious war against us Christians and Prager’s “do what brings you ideal results” theology is exactly what the Left is doing.

Why does the Left hate God? Not to fill a void of “meaning”. They hate God for the same reason wifey hates hubby, because she resents all the fun evil she could be doing and thinks she could do a better job, if only she usurps his strength and authority.
