Opinionated Blogs (1,909)

Warning, this is not a lovey dovey blog.
I was raised to think kindly of all. Be helpful , non-biased, non racist and accept people as they are. Give everyone the benefit of the doubt. Be polite.
But, as this world has evolved, I am getting more hate filled towards people.
Once those of a different persuasion just existed in the back ground. Live and let live. Now everything is shoved in my face.
Blacks were around some. Whatever. Store clerk, professional, news caster. I was not really aware of them being black. Or Chinese or Mexican or whatever. A restaurant here was owned by a gay man. My first belly dancing teacher was gay. It was one of those things we knew and ignored.
Today blacks riot. Gays march. People DEMAND we acknowledge them. Promote them. Glorify them. You know what? It is having the opposite effect. I no longer listen to the black news caster without noticing his race. Or the Mexican cook. Or cross dressing man.
I am starting to resent them all. Just leave me alone! Stop screaming at me to pat you on the head for being. I do not walk down the street naked. Do not fondle and tongue kiss in public. Don't stand on a soap box and yell my beliefs at you. Dont smash your front window because you dont sell me stuff at half price.
So realize all this diversity shoved at me IS turning me bias, prejudiced, racist, anti gay and all of it.
Just go back to being one of those people living their lives and respecting me living mine.

It's easy to get people to lie when you pay them more than double what they would normally earn.

The sham Jan 6th panel has made its staffers a lot of money since it started.

The spending isn’t over yet.

They are on track to spend $8 million this year — all to go after President Donald Trump and his allies.

According to a Congressional aide familiar with the Committee’s expenditures, it is also on track to spend $8 million this year.

There are 51 staffers working for the Committee who have salaries that average more than double what average House staffers make, coming in at $124,416 compared to the average staffer’s salary of $59,000.

GOP Rep Rodney Davis, the ranking member on the House Administration Committee announced that once the Republican party takes back control of the House an investigation into the Jan 6th committee will take place.

The Russians have captured 3 People fighting for The Ukrainian Cause .2 Are from the UK, and one is from Morocco.. One of the two from the UK has been living in Ukraine since 2018. and is engaged to be married to a Ukrainian Woman ,Yet the Russian Dogs are claiming that the three of them are paid Mercenaries and have imposed the death penalty on the three of them
This whole situation goes against the Geneva Convention's laws and rules
But then again the Russian Dogs do not go by any rules except their own
Some people say that Ukraine should do the same thing with their Russian Prisoners
But that doesn't matter to Putin as he could give a damn about his own people
And now Putin is claiming that he is Peter the Great
He's Peter the Great alright
The only problem is that his army is Petering Out
Putin's army in a lot of cases are refusing to fight his war
And where there is dissent? there will be Danger ,and it's not very far from this Peter the Great
And The Free countries of this world sit back and watch the war from their chairs
What are they afraid of with Russia? His nuclear capabilities?
Not to worry on this issue because most of you don't know That when Ukraine became a Sovereign country?
Ukraine and China signed a Deal that says That China Must come to Ukraine's Aid if they were attacked by a Nuclear strike
It is Time to make a stand against this Paper Tiger Russia
Because eventually all of you free counties will have to do this in the future

Despite bombshell claims in the Left-leaning media that Trump ‘was at the center’ and to be blamed for the Jan 6 ‘carnage’, last night’s ‘first hearing’ of the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack proved disappointingly flat.

The event was treated like a blockbuster film, with blanket coverage on all major networks. This was the first of at least six hearings scheduled just for the month of June, and it was heralded by Democrats with the promise of “unseen” footage and Hollywood-style production values that would excite and enliven what is, by now, somewhat old news.

Calling it the “first hearing” is something of a misnomer, however, because the House already held hearings, in July 2021, in which Capitol Police officers exhaustively detailed their defence of the Capitol building. But it’s the nature of political spectacle to demand the revelation of continually fresh horrors, even if they add nothing new.

What was on display at these hearings was tame. Yes, people marched on the Capitol and knocked over metal barriers. Yes, at least one window was broken and protestors clambered through it. Rioters tangled with police, and some officers were evidently injured. The mob did stream through the Capitol building, and Congress did adjourn for a few hours, before reconvening to finish its business of certifying the 2020 election, after the would-be insurrectionists went home.

Is that… it? One would expect, given the ubiquity of cameras today that they would have scraped up some evidence that January 6 really was as violent and dismal as we’ve been told, constantly, since it happened. In order to be shocked by video of cops and protestors in a scrum, pushing each other, with occasional punches or kicks, one would have to pretend that the summer of 2020, when violent riots resulted in thousands of police injuries and billions of dollars of damage by fire, had never happened. Certainly, we sympathise with Capitol Police officers who were hurt on January 6. But when they took their jobs, was there an expectation that they would never have to deal with a riot?

It’s a measure of the distance between rhetoric and reality that, though the media incessantly dwells on the “deadly” nature of the riot, Thursday’s hearing made no reference to anyone’s death. And for good reason. Though seven people “lost their lives” in connection with January 6, only one was killed. Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed veteran, was shot at point-blank range by Capitol Police officer Michael Byrd, who faced no discipline for his action, and who has since been praised as a hero and lifesaver.

For months after the event, the media and the political establishment insisted that another officer, Brian Sicknick, had been beaten to death with a fire extinguisher by rioters, but this bogus martyrdom was exposed as a lie by the Washington D.C. Chief Medical Examiner, who found that Sicknick died of natural causes.

Ultimately, the events last night amounted to a damp squib. The chain of claims that supposedly link Donald Trump to the actions of moronic hooligans is tendentious. The case is based on assertions that Trump told “lies” about matters of opinion, and that he did not listen to the advice of some of his aides. Trump called for a rally which turned into a riot; therefore, Trump caused a riot. Some of the mob imagined that they could prevent the transfer of power; therefore, the whole thing was an attempted coup.

If the 2020 election wasn’t stolen:

-The 13 Marines in the botched #Afghanistan withdrawal would still be alive.
-The Taliban wouldn’t have billions of dollars of weapons.
-The wall would be completed.
-Americans wouldn’t be living paycheck to paycheck.
-Inflation wouldn’t be out of control.
-Russia would not have invaded Ukraine.
-North Korea would not have tested an ICBM missile.
-America would still be great. ????

(I think it's fake news but, I will double check).


Willy blogged about his arrest which was a legitimate case of drunk driving.

Now the court DROPPED the charges because the footage is missing?

What the hell, this is absurd. For years and years we never needed a camera footage to make charges legitimate.

HE WAS DRUNK. MF.

What a corrupt system we have.

I'm so mad.

Note the first 30 seconds of this video.

A furious Los Angeles mom who was mowed down with her baby by a hit-and-run teen driver has lashed out at soft-on-crime District Attorney George Gascon after the perp was given just five months probation.

The mother, only identified as Rachel, took aim at LA’s top prosecutor in a scathing victim impact statement after the 16-year-old driver was ordered to participate in a diversionary program over the August 2021 incident, Fox News reported Friday.

“George Gascon doesn’t value my life or the life of my child, or any other victim out there, and would rather reward the monsters like [the juvenile suspect] by demonstrating to them that their actions have no consequences,” Rachel wrote.

“DA Gascon is telling him and every other thug in LA County that it doesn’t matter if you try to murder people. Why are Gascon’s policies prioritizing the livelihood of rotten monsters when my child, my baby, who is incapable of protecting himself, is left to fend for himself, and is essentially being told his life doesn’t matter?”

Shocking surveillance video of the incident showed the teen plowing directly into Rachel as she pushed her 8-month-old son in his stroller down a Venice street the morning of August 6.

"Over the last 20-30 years or so, I’ve had some ‘eye-opening/mind-changing’ revelations about myself and my life.

Some of those revelations are about my relationship with myself, with my immediate family, with ‘ex’ friends and with an ‘ex’ husband – and are very personal. Others were revealed to me through observations, mistakes and other challenges that I experienced along the way."



* Just because it worked for you, doesn't necessarily mean that it would work (at all/as well) for me.

In my part of the Southern Caribbean, the saying is "Gopaul luck eh Seepaul luck", which is a warning to avoid doing what others have done/may be doing, just because it seems to have worked/be working. This is especially important if what you see being done is either ethically inappropriate and or legally wrong. Whilst others around you may benefit or 'get away' with such actions, you may not be so lucky. Do the right thing and make your own way; don't be a follower.


*Change isn't always a good thing.

Many strides have been made over the last few decades, especially in the areas of Science and Technology. These improvements have changed the way(s) the mankind gets things done - work and play - which, for the most part, has increased the level of convenience for this Life's journey. In doing that however, certain other aspects of Life have also been increased, but to man's detriment instead.
For example, mankind has become so 'comfortable' that such ease has given rise to physical inactivity, obesity, health issues, social insensitivity and even spiritual and moral decay...just to name a few.

What have I learnt? Change itself, isn't enough to make things better; holding on to what is valuable amidst the change, is.
