Lookup “unrest in Australia” on YouTube and you’ll get quite a list of videos. The government there seems to be at the forefront of the new COVID totalitarianism. Like Gretchen Whitmer in Michigan or Newsom in California. They want to take it out on the people of their states and countries way more than they do Fauci and the Chinese who invented it.
How convenient I thought that a tyrannical regime should take over in Australia just a few years after they turned in their guns. It caused me to look up when and why that was.
Martin Bryant was the perpetrator of the 1996 Port Arthur Massacre. He was a known nutcase (he was on a government pension for his disability), yet he was allowed to stockpile weapons in contravention of their own laws. He was able to stockpile weapons because he had knocked off the lottery heiress who had made him the sole inheritor of her will.
Its a classic case once again where the government falls down on the job, doesn’t enforce their own laws, then at the time of tragedy caused by their own malfeasance, acts like its the law abiding gun owners fault!
The guy was a nut. It says right on the gun purchase forms, “Are you under the care of a mental health professional?” Yes, he was*. They don’t enforce that here either. Nor the one about substance abuse. People with DWI’s are screaming, “I’m not eligible!” Yet they routinely handout purchase and carry authorizations to people with drunk driving convictions.
And they do that, for exactly that reason. For the crisis it creates, and their opportunity to act. January 6.
[*for the reasons just stated, law enforcement on a background check refuses to look at anything beyond criminal violations. They will not incorporate mental health records, which they are fully authorized to do by statute. So of course you end up with a “nut with a gun.”]
So much of prepping is on what you might call being high up on a sliding scale. Say for instance if normal times were a 5, the disaster we prep for is a 3 or 4, when we would still have electricity, gas and water. The whole scenario changes dramatically if you lose a utility or two. Then say you might have prepped a boatload of food, but you no longer have a way to cook it.
Or the key commodity, water. Say you have a Berkey Water Filter, but what if water isn’t even flowing through the pipes? Maybe you even prepped for a generator and paid an electrician to wire it to your house, how do you keep that generator from looters? When you can hear that generator late at night from a block away?
Speaking of looters, there are those who don’t prep and say they will just take from those who have. Maybe you are armed and trained, but will there be anyone to guard your stash during those times you have to leave? Have you thought about an assistance network? Maybe your neighbors are top of the line, what about when they get hungry? Real Hungry?
Not to mention, if you think the crush at the border is bad now, what about when things really go south? All of the south will be coming north then. And the last thing the authorities are going to want is people defending themselves. Being independent. Not needing them. It was pointed out on the radio just yesterday that the Fed’s want local police and governments to fail, they want all of it to be nationalized.
Me? I can see surviving a Level 3 or 4 collapse. Being a dainty prepper. But a 1 or 2? A complete collapse of society? Nah I don’t see surviving that. You’d have to have really good, smart and prepared neighbors. The lone wolf would get picked off pretty quick. That’s probably the key right there, not working so much on the store of goods, but on a store of goodwill. A network, an association.
And in typical fashion I didn’t lay out the basis for this focus on prepping. A lot of smart people see something coming. That means 1 of 2 things. All the “experts” were wrong, or you had to be blind not to see it coming. Those smart people are looking at the big financial picture, the social unrest, how the COVID is being used to usher in the Big Reset.
March 15, 2020 is when the Great Toilet Paper Apocalypse hit the last time. During the next 2 weeks I watched store shelves empty out. Quick. My Walmart was bare. There was panic buying then, over nothing. Can you imagine in the face of a real disaster? Aside from the issues I mentioned in the previous paragraph, China is making noise threatening Taiwan. The nut in North Korea is always there.
With Biden throwing all pretense of having a border out the window, how many battle hardened Islamic terrorists have we let in the country the past year? Police can’t handle a single lone shooter, what if there were a hundred semi organized team of shooters? A thousand? What that would do also (and serve their purpose), is lead to gun confiscation.
People prep for the calamity they’re comfortable with, not the worst case. It would be good to go into it with some skills. A nurse, a plumber, an engineer. We as a people are grossly ill-equipped for a wide scale disaster. We’re soft, “Where can I charge my phone??” America of the 30’s and 40’s still had roots in the victory garden and killing and preparing game.
Going back to March 15 of last year (and the panic in the grocery aisles over nothing), how long did it take to come out of that? Frankly it was a year. Nobody went hungry, but supply wasn’t like it normally was. I know what my skills are, what are yours? Dr David Jeremiah was just on the radio yesterday making a good case that we are in the early days of the tribulation.
China is the big variable in all this. What if the weakness of the Biden administration is just too much temptation for them, and they go for Taiwan? We resist and they nuke DC? They make practically every thing we use. What if that’s cutoff? A year? Maybe two? If they take out Washington, its really up in the air then. Chinese troops on main street.
“This problem can not be fixed by 24/7 work days or thousands of new workers because it is caused by a new California emissions control law for 18 wheelers that just recently went into effect. All trucks older than 3 years do not met the new standards, so simply there is not enough trucks and there will not be enough trucks in the foreseeable future. What’s odd about this how the media and government are doing all they can to keep the truth from coming out.”
To be overrun by spammers? I don’t get it. The New American website pays an outside firm (Disqus) a fee to police and regulate the comment section of your website. Disqus doesn’t do what they’re paid for, and you keep paying them?? So I put the address for Disqus in the comments:
Disqus 717 Market Street suite 700 San Francisco, CA 94103-2140
So people could write these morons. They didn’t take down the spam, they took down my comment with their address in it. They are going to ban me from the site, because I’m going to keep bugging them. They could do away with the spammers, but they won’t do that.
Bright Bart has this article this morning about Pompeo’s warning that kid’s are gonna die because Biden forgot and left the border open. Drug overdose deaths are going to strike down America’s youth because the border suddenly went to hell in a hand basket during the 9 months Biden has been in office.
Gimme a break. Yes Biden’s failure at the border has been particularly spectacular, but its been going on for 40 years. Ever since Reagan took it upon himself to break the meatpacking and construction unions with illegals. But to sit there and act like Democrats are solely responsible is ridiculous.
Dude (Pompeo) that’s been going on 40 years! DO NOT act like Republicans haven’t been fully part of this border scam from the get go! Dam (n) that drives me crazy, and its a short drive. Can’t you see this is why nothing ever changes? They play this fake D vs R battle. Its mono-party. Yes there are skin deep differences but in the end, its the elites, the deep state, the insiders, and we’re not them.
I think the site rankings of “who gets it”, least to most is: FOX, Bright Bart, WND, The New American. The Democrats have it all, why isn’t America now a workers paradise? Why isn’t everyone making $20 bucks an hour? Ain’t gonna happen is it? Why haven’t corporations been taxed back to the stone age? Ain’t gonna happen is it?
As long as Americans let themselves get distracted by the game, ain’t nothin’ gonna change. Its not rain.
[Oh, and that picture? There aren’t any white 3rd world countries.]
The Chinese infect the world with a virus, and now my Walmart can’t be open 24 hrs? Fauci funds a lab to figure out how to get an animal virus to transmit to humans, and now my McDonald’s isn’t open 24 hrs? The world locks down for a virus that only has a 99.7% survival rate, so that means I can’t have a 24 hr Hy-Vee Grocery Store anymore?
Where the hell’s the logic in that? “Our Team Members need this extra time to do an extended and thorough cleaning to make our store as safe as possible!” Do they really not “get” that they could have the keypad at the checkout, or the handle on the freezer case, operating room clean before opening, but as soon as the first customer comes in and touches it, poof! All your hard work overnight is now gone.
Its not about how clean something was at 3 am, what is it at noon now that you’ve been open 4 hours? Or at 3 pm? Or now at 7:30 in the evening right before close? What the hell did all your fantastic cleaning at 3 am do for how sanitary it is 16 1/2 hours later? And why can’t I get a breakfast burrito at 5 am? Who eats breakfast at 8 am?
Its over! Damn, how stupid are people? (not referring to Victor) Senator Grassley announces last week he’s running again in 2022. Iowans are stupid enough they’ll send him back to Washington. Grassley exemplifies everything that’s wrong with America. Someone with no discernible talent being one of 100 of the most important people governing America.
Its not just him of course its everybody in that cesspool of corruption. But that’s not even the problem. Its the voters! They’re the ones that keep sending these criminals back! How do you get that stupid? The United States of America is not supposed to be an Empire. We’re not supposed to take in all the world’s derelicts. We’re not supposed to give taxpayer dollars to the crooks in Buttfucksia under the guise of foreign aid.
We’re not supposed to be ‘nation building’. The sole mission of our government as given was to secure the rights of Life, Liberty and Property for its citizens.
A funny thought hit me the other day. I’d quit going to Gab 5 or 6 months ago because its just a bunch of One-Way suckers, and a platform that’s geared to the Blue Checks. But then I remembered what had really lit my fuse! Torba kept re-posting these “boomer hate” memes. Young people find it quite hilarious to attack those over age 56.
Then I realized the funny part! Torba (Andrew) is always on a non-stop fundraising campaign! Do you think you’re going to get any money out of those you just insulted? You dumb fuck! Not a dime! Go play in the traffic! Its a shame all of the “boomers” won’t pick up on your shit. Maybe enough will.
That Ayn Rand quote (like truth in general) has many layers to it. It really came to mind with the recent events of the Haitian invasion. Then there was just news yesterday that another caravan was headed up from Latin America. I just love those pictures of some fat Central American gal on her cellphone with the caption, “We’re supposed to believe she is starving and walked a 1,000 miles?”
Too bad these people wouldn’t fight for their own country, instead of coming here and ruing ours. I’m part of the generation that saw America at its zenith. Not during its ascendancy. Because I saw the peak, I’ll also see the fall. I would be fine with America being an average country, but that’s not what’s going to happen. The crooks at the top will still be trying to wring their graft and corruption out of a bankrupt nation.
Being flooded by another group of 3rd worlders is the symptom, not the problem. Anyone who thinks about it two seconds knows that in all these countries the corrupt 1% at the top have things so locked in favor of themselves, there’s no upward mobility for the poor. And our corrupt 1% keep the doors open to this country, not letting things bubble over in that country, and forcing change there.
ABC News’ “The View” co-host Joy Behar on Wednesday dismissed the notion that Monica Lewinsky was a victim of her high-profile affair with former President Bill Clinton.
As much as the media would like us to believe that sex scandals with Monica Lewinsky and Paula Jones were the Great Crimes! of the Clinton administration, it was actually when he approved the sale of ICBM targeting technology from the Loral Corp to the Chinese, leapfrogging China’s nuclear program 25 years. This 25 year old news is in the headlines again because the media is trying to help fellow Jew Monica Lewinsky push her new book (‘Blow Me Down!’*). Secondarily Clinton’s other crime was taking money from Chinese agents Johnny Huang and Charlie Trie. That’s the true meaning of criminality Charlie Brown. Oh, and giving North Korea a nuclear (nukular) power plant that haunts us today. No, the real treason of the Clinton White House wasn’t puffers in the Oval Office.
FOX News is going to have to find another story… in a few months. Now that the body of Gabby looks to have been found. First they’ll have to cover the dramatic (if obvious) arrest of Brian Laundrie. Then after the trial is delayed several times, they’ll discover Wyoming is a death penalty state. Then they’ll have endless debate about the value of the death penalty.
Then none of that will matter because the prosecutor will only be going for second degree murder. Okay, so in reality with a trial that won’t start until February of 2023, it will go on for 9 months. Then you have the endless appeals. So the murder of Gabby Petito will provide grist for FOX for at least 5 years.
A couple of days ago in the comment section on FOX I pointed out that cases like this drive black people crazy. 10 black girls died the same day as Gabby, but what do they get? Nothing. Take a cute little blond gal from suburbia that gets murdered and its the crime of the century.
Then another thought hit me. In the old days young women didn’t go drinking and fornicating across the country with a man who wasn’t her husband. They just didn’t do that. I’m not sure when the “old days” were, but it was sometime prior to 1970. I’m not sure when morals took a holiday, and fuddy duddyism fell out of vogue. It might have been around 1960.
“Its my right to do stupid things!” That’s great, but be prepared to pay the price. Stupidity ain’t free. Its kind of like every fall when a coed passes out drunk in a frat house and finds out sometime the next day that a guy had intercourse with her. Bad things gonna happen. Good luck putting the milk back in the bottle.
