The Surveillance State, Militarized Policing, ‘Karens’, Civil Society and the Coming Dystopia

While we don’t agree withe very point in this video, it presents a valuable perspective from the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE).

To be candid, we agree with much of what FEE says here, but they show some partisan stripes by bringing up Bush and Trump but not the massive expansion of the surveillance state under Obama. Indeed, Obama was engaged in massive illegal domestic spying. Obama also oversaw the ramped up militarization of police under the DoD 1033 program. Also, speaking of Orwellian, it was the Obama Administration who gave guns to Mexican Drug Cartels in order to use the resulting chaos as an excuse to clamp down on American citizens freedoms. He also fails to mention which party took the Carona Virus lock-downs way too far. In showing a partisan bent FEE undermines the credibility of their perspective.

That said, we still encourage readers to watch the video.

BILL & TED DAY!

One might not expect this post from us, but Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is one of the greatest films of all time.

The film is a funny exploration of the human condition that presents it’s own spin on The Golden Rule for the world to embrace, “Be Excellent To Each Other!” Wiser words have never been spoken by man.

Must See: Chicago Women Goes Ballistic on Armed Security Protecting Strip Mall

Is she mad because these stores cannot be looted? It seems that way but we cannot be sure. What we are sure of is that she is a product of inner city public schools who encourage her barbaric mentality. Marxism requires hate and envy to accomplish its goals and as you can see this woman has plenty of it.

Hate is not a family value.

New York Police Unions Hold Press Conference (video)

The police here are being very candid. They make their case and make it well. Most police do a good job but…..

Some police unions have indeed helped to cover for corrupt police, some years ago yours truly reported on a police union doing so for a corrupt Alaska state trooper who threatened to murder family members of state officials. While not all unions behave like this, some do.

16 Memorials Were Damaged During Riots, Including One Dedicated To Black Soldiers

WBUR:

The Robert Gould Shaw and the 54th Regiment Memorial was one of 16 public art works damaged when thousands of protesters swarmed Boston Common on Sunday night.

A $3-million dollar restoration project for the sculpture dedicated to the African American soldiers who fought in the Civil War was granted clearance just last week. The outbreak of the coronavirus had delayed the project.

The conservator’s recent prep work protected the front of the bronze relief with plywood, but its granite backside was vandalized with four-letter words and phrases including “Black Lives Matter,” “No Justice, No Peace,” and “Police are Pigs.”

“This monument is considered one of the nation’s greatest pieces of public art and the greatest piece to come out of the Civil War,” said Liz Vizza, executive director of the Friends of the Public Garden, “It was, amazingly enough, dedicated 123 years ago on May 31st – the day it was defaced.”
