SPECIAL BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT!

 SPECIAL BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT!

It has been a wild and interesting ride.

For me, the last 81 years have been filled with all kinds of adventures, accomplishments and experiences.

Western writer Louis L' Amour perhaps put it best in one of his short stories. He said that in the course of a man's life "he does many things!" Indeed!

On the first of November 2022, I received probably the best birthday present that any writer can ask for. To have articles placed in print in an International Magazine is nice, to have books published is also nice, but to have a major publisher of politically incorrect books actually CARRY it and promote it, is a whole new level of accomplishment.

It is a natural fit. For years, I have written some interesting articles for The Barnes Review History Magazine, they did the technical work to place AN IMMIGRANT REMEMBERS in print, so it is natural their bookstore on line will now carry the title.

My thanks to them and to Paul Angel, my editor, for all his help and assistance! This ad will now appear in the November/December issue of The Barnes Review.

UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE!

  UNDERSTANDING PEOPLE!

Sometimes it is very difficult to understand other people.

 

The reason is that NOT ALL people have the same level of intellect.

 

Intellect is inherited through genetics and is the greatest blessing. Those who like to tell you that everyone is “equal” or are the “same” are simply telling a big lie. Each of us has DIFFERENT abilities.

 

Those who do not have a great deal of intellect are grossly short-changed. Some of them CAN be TAUGHT, but they have to WANT to be taught.  Others easily fall prey to propaganda.

 

Consider some examples……

 

1) A person who grew up in a military family can seldom understand the attitude of those who did not. Many of those who missed the military experience simply do not understand the concept of “self-defense,” and why anyone who would take that natural right away from them is suspect! My own family went through that experience in wartime Norway. Too few Americans can relate to it. Or want to relate to it!

 

2) People who grew up unvaccinated, will never be understood by those who think that getting a poisoned needle in their arm is great health procedure. Those who subscribe to the vax scam cannot understand why the un-vaxed are better off. It NEVER occurs to them to question WHY! They simply lack basic reasoning power!

 

3) People who never read books resent those who do read. “Books are boring!” They just cannot process the concept that books are simply a library of knowledge developed over time that is available to ANYONE who WANTS to know and learn! These same people often will not recognize effort others make to write books and articles. Indeed, many of them make fun of authors. Yet they, themselves, could not write a serious piece if their lives depended on it!

 

4) Respect is something that has to be taught. Those who respect neither themselves nor others are at a serious disadvantage. They think “they are just as good as you.” The reality may be vastly different!

 

5) People who grew up in the country or on a farm or in some agricultural enterprise, will always be miles ahead of those who were denied the experience and will never understand the role that AG plays in the production of food and shelter! They lack the ability to understand CREATIVITY and PRODUCTION.

 

6) Unintelligent people ALWAYS look for a leader they can FOLLOW, instead of BEING a leader! It is much easier to follow ideology, no matter how crazy it might be, than it is to make the effort to create your own ideology.

 

7) People pray to God for deliverance, and yet won’t help God in his effort by putting their own "shoulder to the wheel!" They are “mentally lazy!”

 

8) Great civilizations were built by men who sacrificed intentionally, in order to forge great improvements. The “simpleton” just wrecks what he cannot create, because he lacks the intelligence, is ungrateful and because he is inherently jealous of those who can and do create!

 

9) Those who think that “electing” leaders is always a solution to a country’s woes, are likely to be very disappointed. A REPUBLIC may have been created in the beginning, but electing
“leaders” who enrich themselves at public expense is the end result, and will only lead to breakdown of society and chaos.

 

10) Those that refuse to read history and realize that the same “devils” who have always been the destroyers of society will always be around, and they can be found in every declining civilization actively pursuing their devilment. Their methods are always the samem but most cannot see what is happening in front of their eyes! Our civilization is no different from any of the earlier ones!

 Memorial Day 2022

Memorial Day.

A Day to remember the fallen; those who fought for "freedom" and helped make the promoters of war filthy rich!

That may not be what you wanted to hear today, but I will say it anyway!

I was in Military Service once,

 and understand both the NEED and the GAME.

Not everyone does.

How many remember the big slogan in the First World War? It was touted as THE WAR TO END ALL WARS! It was a lie then, and still is.

Remember how the Second World War was described by newsman Tom Brokaw as THE GOOD WAR? Was it? Yes, if you were a politician or an amament maker it WAS a great war. If you were the poor grunt who returned in a body bag, it was a huge loss.

And now, the same shameless people are pushing wars around the world once AGAIN. They peddle the same lies over and over. It is very profitable for the same people and a disaster for those who make the sacrifice.

I am sitting this one out.

Remember the fallen.....

THINKING IS "DANGEROUS!"

 THINKING IS "DANGEROUS!"

Here are some "self-generated" original thoughts that I want to share! They really "hit the spot!"

1) I was SPANKED as a child; that's why I have RESPECT for people!

2) I always VOTE for politicians; I am too stupid to do things for myself!

3) I was never given MEDICINE as a child. As a result, I am without a medical history!

4) I never did learn to hold a job. That's why I was forced to work for myself!

5) When I was a kid, I was taught about equality and hate. As a result, I now hate everybody equally!

6) When I went to college, I was taught not to think! I learned that well... I got a Masters Degree in Thoughlessness!

7) When I went to college, I was taught to "hate myself." That's why I keep banging my head against the wall!

8) When I am told to get a shot, I always do. After all, I would never get one on my own!

9) When told to "panic," I always do. We all know that misery loves company!

10) I always believe in "religious leaders" and follow everything they say, because who am I to receive "revelation" for my own account?!

11) Think you are pretty smart? Look no further than the "genius" who "occupies" the "white house!" He is a man you can "respect!"

12) Wanna "demonstrate?" Take two FULL glasses of water and pour the one into the other without spilling anything! That way, people can see how really "smart" you are!

13) Try changing the "mind" of a so-called "liberal." He will turn into a raving bigot!

14) Think Men are the same as Women" You can easily do that if you just ignore basics!

15) Even wonder why some people make money easily? It is simple. Crime Pays!

16) Like "killing" people? Join the military and "police the World!"

17) Think you can EAT anything and stay well? It is easy. Just stuff yourself with crap and call it a day!

18) Believe in SCIENCE? Good for you. Science is PROFITABLE.The Moon is made of Green Cheese, you know. Science says so. All you have to do is GO there. You will never go hungry again!

The meme pictured here is not of my doing. Someone rearranged the words of the Quotation a bit, but it IS funny!

The correct quote is:

A wise man's heart is at his right hand;

but a fools heart at his left.

COURTS AND COPS!

 

A DISERTATION

on

COURTS AND COPS!

I recently "enjoyed" the "privilege" of attending a "court session." It was a "circus." The judge was fair, but nevertheless adhered to the "tricky ways" in which the "fine system" is set up. If you do not understand the way that works, you would be decieved! At the time of this court session, they currently require "masks" in the courtroom. I refused. I had to make a MOTION, to be reviewed by the judge, in order to wear a SHIELD instead. Interestingly, the prosecutor wore a shield, too!

There were NINE court employees to handle FIVE misdemeanor traffic citation cases. They took in over $400 in "fines" during the nearly three hour session. Most who were found "guilty," screwed themselves, thinking they would get a "lesser fine" by trivializing their circumstances. Several had good cases for a "not guilty" verdict, but "blew it" by "admitting" things they need not have. Several were very intimidated. The one case where the judge found for the defendant (not guilty) was made because the defendant was articulate, and the prosecution had some confusion regarding the "facts." The cop was totally useless. The defendant made no effort to assist the prosecution nor the cop. Both were hard to hear, as neither knew how to use a microphone efficiently. The defendant refused to admit guilt and maintained that position throughout the session. The "burden of proof," after all, is always upon the prosecution. 

In my own experience as a reporter, I have covered many a story involving cops. In some cases, cops were treated very unfairly by the press for political reasons. In others, the cops made huge mistakes, accidentally or on purpose. The Rodney King affair is a prime example. A lady (California) CHP officer was beaten by King during a traffic stop. She called for backup, and when the male officers arrived and saw her being flailed, they attacked King. Guess which part of the video ended up "edited out" on the nightly news! King was no angel; he had a rap sheet! Of course, the officers actions were wrong. They lost their cool. But King became a media "hero!" He sued  and collected a huge settlement that in reality he was not entitled to!

I was stopped for a "rear brake light out" by an ISP officer some ten or more years ago. He was an Idaho cop who is still mocked behind his back, and not well liked for his draconian ways on the job. I ended up making a complaint against him. He was the perfect idiot. He asked me to place my GEAR SHIFT TRUCK into the PARK POSITION! That same idiot is now working with the transportation depatment in the same state hassling truckers! Stupidity pays well in the beaureau-crazy!

More than ten years ago, an "investigator" for the local sheriff stopped and hassled me on the hiway, accusing me of stalking a woman I did not know. The make and model of the truck and the description of the perpetrator was all wet, but that did not stop him from pressuring me. It annoyed me enough to the point I went to the sheriff's office to make a complaint, and was CONFRONTED BY THE SAME CLOWN again! Apparently, he thought it was "okay" to invistigate his OWN complaint. So, I sent the sheriff a letter he could not refuse and ended up having a pleasant conversation with the Under-sheriff. The result was I got a letter of appology from the officer who admitted to pressuring me! That guy no long works for the department, but runs a brewery instead. Better for all of us!

The Under-sheriff was a former Los Angeles supervising officer who worked in the Department of Internal Affairs. This is the police department's internal investigation department which handles "officer misconduct." He told me he "had seen the rot." We discussed that and he also told me he could not know what his officers were doing "in the field," if he was not told! Hence, he appreciate my "intelligent" letter, something he said he seldom got! We also discussed a matter we were both familiar with, involving over 3,000 cases thrown out of court in LA because the officer LIED under oath and fabricated "evidence." A sharp attorney nailed him. The Under-sheriff also gave his opinion that cops often come from the lowest 20% of the intelligence heap. They also come from the lowest 20% on the economic ladder. I think he was right. Don't expect "brilliance" from these people!

A teacher I know who retired locally, used to live and teach in Colorado. She told me that of all the "problems boys" she dealt with in her school classes, many often became "deputies!" She was quite distressed to realize she had helped "educate" such people. It gave her a bad feeling about to what degree these boys might "help" others!

When I was a witness some time back in a matter not involving me personally, I met with an Idaho attorney. He was not very fond of cops in general. he said that cops MAKE MORE MISTAKES THAN ANYONE. I have to agree that my experience mirrors his It is a shame, really. When I was growing up, cops were RESPECTED and actually HELPED people. Not so much anymore. They have become way too political, miltary and killing-oriented towards civilians.

Recently, a Boundary County Idaho chiropractor, Dr. Daniel Moore, was hassled by a local police department, not allowed an attorney, and coerced into making some kind of a questionable "confession." He was arrested for Second Degree Murder. But First District Judge Barbara Buchanan threw out the charges because of police misconduct. That matter is now before the Idaho State Supreme Count, appealed by the authorities. Locals often appeal such cases because there is "money" in it. It remains to be seen what the outcome will be.

In the State of Idaho, a driver needs to know and understand that SPEED LIMIT is absolute. There is NO LEEWAY! Never! There are no GREY AREAS. Sometimes, a cop using good judgment, may decide NOT to issue a ticket, but don't count on it! Cops are oppportunists, they act on WHIM as much as anything. The fiction that they are looking out for our "safety" is a crock of garbage. That is just an EXCUSE to stop you. In the final analysis, it is POWER and MONEY that counts. Also, they are looking for advancement opportunities. Having a great "ticket writing record" helps.

NEVER ADMIT ANYTHING. NEVER. You do not know if you are being videoed or not. Radar is often wrong. The officer is often wrong. The BURDEN OF PROOF is always upon the officer. A man who admits to nothing has a far better chance of winning in court than anything. You may succeed, you may not. If there is a reasonable doubt, and you do not incrimminate yourself, you may win. Always challenge everything in court. Be smart. Arguing with an officer in the field can cause unending problems as officers often loose their cool and can escalate things way beyond reason. That happens way too often!

Better yet, look upon each drive you take as a "driving school," and make NO mistakes. If you are followed, turn off somewhere and let the rascal pass you! Better if you follow him!

Also, PRE-FLIGHT your car before taking off. That is a requitrement for pilots who fly airplanes. The reason is to catch mistakes before they become problem areas. Most of the time you will be able to avoid unpleasant "encounters of the alien kind!"

Full Moon!

ON BEING THANKFUL!

 

On Being Thankful!

Every people in the World has a Thanksgiving festival of sorts. Sometimes they are religious, sometimes not. But it is common celebrate the good fortune of a great harvest. Agricultural peoples the World over are happy when the crops are in. It provides a feeling of completion, of peace, of wealth, and the knowledge that there is food for all!

On my Facebook Page I posted the following the day before Thanksgiving:

Some people ask me what I am thankful for this Thanksgiving. I like to say I am just as thankful on Thanksgiving as I am every other day of the year!

 

Most agricultural people are thankful for a good harvest, knowing they have food for the coming winter. So, a Farmer is always closer to God than anyone.  Modern Man has lost his way in that sense. The more he separates from Nature, the more his way becomes tenuous…...

 

I am thankful I have received and use the power of discernment, which allows me to make stable and good decisions through life.

I am thankful for a sense of peace without fear.

I am thankful that I can think for myself.

I am thankful I am not “politically correct.”

I am thankful I am not a “slave” of false ideology and false commandments of men.

I am thankful for the understanding to never “go along just to get along.”

I am thankful for the understanding that every land needs a housecleaning from crooks from time to time. It may not be pleasant, but it happens over and over again. It needs to happen again…..

I am thankful that I have enough sense to stay healthy as long as possible.

I am thankful for my mistakes, because from them I can learn better ways.

I am thankful for learning from the mistakes of others so I do not have to repeat them myself.

I am thankful to be able to help others when I can, and when they allow it.

I am thankful for the love and help from others.

I am thankful for my extended family.

I am thankful to know enough to stay away from despicable, lying and thoroughly evil politicians. Most of them serve masters different from me/us.

I am thankful I worked in media at one time and know their evil ways.

I am thankful to have basic religious understanding.

I am thankful for the ability to recognize false prophets, to avoid them and never blindly follow them.

I am thankful for the understanding that Christ was a true Rebel for all the right reasons and how few understand Him or His lessons.

I am grateful to those who censor me and call me names. They only confirm my correctness.

I am thankful for those who make fun of me. They teach me how to give as “good as I get!”

I am thankful for learning not to try to convince anyone of anything, but simply give them the tools to make their own mistakes…

I am thankful for the knowledge that “stupid does as stupid is!”

I am thankful to use medical knowledge WHEN it is needed, but stay away when not needed.

I am thankful I have the good sense not to be somebody’s “lab rat.”

I am thankful I do not watch television. It is a Roman Circus run by very evil men (and women).

I am thankful for the ability to design and create.

I am thankful for the ability to know when I need help and when I do not.

I am thankful for basic honesty.

I am thankful for understanding the difference between money and value.

I am thankful for a very well developed sense of humor.

I am thankful for the gift of tongues. Languages are keys to higher learning.

I am thankful for my friends in other lands!

I am thankful for the gift of a "good eye" for many things.

...and last but not least, I am thankful to be able to stick around and watch the Circus of Mankind move backwards and forwards…….
