    @ Chicago Sun Times
    Chicago diminutive Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the teachers union get into a slap fight.
    The union trolled her with a Scooby Doo parody. She immediately labeled it “racist” without even seeing it.
    The CTU is always unreasonable , but come on everything is not racist.
    Lori Lightfoot has pronounced dictorial tendencies and she and Governor Pritzker are doing their best to make a bigger mess out of an existing mess.

    Juneteenth is usually marked with a cookout, a parade, a community festival, or a soulful rendition of “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing.”

    What utter drek. I’ve never heard of it until a week or 2 ago. And if there was a slaughter of blacks, I doubt very much anybody celebrated with a parade.

    You know the more they try to monkey with history, the more people are getting angry.

    Personally, I’m LOVING that police officers are walking off their shifts. What did Atlanta have last night – a backlog of 600+ calls that went unanswered? And when that decrepit mayor asked neighboring jurisdictions for help, they told her to pound sand.

    Dear America – we hope you’re enjoying for 7-day Free Trial of “Defund the Police.”


  9. 10 | June 19, 2020 10:05 am

    I find it incredibly interesting that the people who became indignant and irate over the characterization of their “peaceful” protest as violent because of the vicious behavior of looters and rioters that broke off from their original group are the same people who have painted every police officer and department in the country as systemically racist and every White officer as a latent member of the KKK.

    Meaning no long has meaning.

    somebody found what they thought was a noose dangling from a tree. I think this is in Oakland, CA. A black man comes forward and says ‘no, that’s part of an exercise group I put up so my friends and I could have some fun’. He even has video.

    The mayor is having none of it.

    “Intentions do not matter. We will not tolerate symbols of hate in our city. The nooses found at Lake Merritt will be investigated as hate crimes.”

    I wanna watch her put some black guys in jail for hanging exercise ropes on trees.

    Oh this is rich.

    I’m seeing a boatload of White folk now claiming that Juneteenth needs to be a national holiday! None of them knew what it was this time last week.

    I’ve been familiar with Juneteenth. I saw a bill announcing “Juneteenth Celebration” on a boarded up fence years and years ago and asked a Black friend about it (the bill seemed to indicate it was a black holiday). She told me the history. I asked how she would be celebrating it and she said “sort of the same way you celebrate St. Patrick’s day.”

    So you talk funny and drink yourself into a stupor? Sounds like Mardi Gras to me.

    Update on the two Kiwi cops attacked in Massey in Auckland’s Western suburbs. One dead and one badly wounded. NOT head wounds as initially reported. One cop shot point blank in the chest with a long arm and the other shot in the thigh nicking his femoral artery. They were NOT at a gang HQ There was an outstanding Warrant on the driver of the car so they did a normal traffic stop to arrest him. During the traffic stop the driver fled but crashed the car attempting to escape.

    The passenger and the driver then hijacked a silver car and this too was found by the Police car in a side street. The driver approached the police car with a long arm and fired an initial 3 shots hitting one Police Officer in the chest and the other in the leg opening an artery . Both murderer and the female passenger then fled. AOS raided the Gang HQ soon after but neither criminal was found. Two other gang members were also arrested and a huge armoury plus drugs and a LOT of expensive property was found. The alleged murder has been found but his female accomplice who is well known to the Police is still on the run.

    This is the first Police fatality in NZ since 2007. This is getting ridiculous. The whole BLM / Antifa bullshit has been adopted from the US, by the fascist socialist left here in NZ . Today’s NZ Herald (Pravda on the Waitamata) is full of BLM garbage including a whole page by a 7 year old about how she was shamed because she demanded to be called ‘princess’ at school, an some of her school mates made fun of her. RACISTTTTTT !

    Ok, something is going on in DOJ.

    In the infamous Southern District of NY, some say Jeffrey Berman has resigned. Others say Barr fired him, after offering him another position which he declined.

    Apparently Berman investigated Guliani, was on the Epstein and Michael Cohen cases.

    Seeing reports that other attorneys are resigning in protest.

    @ coldwarrior:

    Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation on January 1, 1863, declared that all slaves in the CSA were now free. Never mind that those states were not under Union control until Lee surrendered at Appomattox on April 9, 1865. On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, Texas and announced that the slaves in the state were free by executive decree. June 19 came to be known as Juneteenth in Texas. Interestingly the proclamation didn’t free any of the slaves held in the Union states including the slave states of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky, Missouri and West Virginia. They had to wait until the 13th Amendment was passed on December 18, 1865 for their freedom.

    I’ve been thinking about the fallout here. This is just hypothesis on my part, but I can see that a lot of white libs who currently live in D.C. head for suburbia – that would be Montgomery County MD – which is Berkeley on the Potomac already – and Northern Virginia (where I live), the area which has turned a red state blue. That migrators would include a lot of Capitol Hill staffers, too, and because Virginia has lower taxes and they don’t make all that much, I’m guessing they’ll head here. HOWEVER – they may not be able to afford it. Amazon is slowly building up its presence here in Northern Virginia and property inventory/prices will be even more squeezed.

    I cannot GET to Tennessee fast enough. I saw that the legislature is looking at a bill that will allow no-permit carry. heh.

    Meghan, who has his balls in her purse, has decided it is her destiny to stay here in the U.S. and fight ‘systemic racism’. The British royal family has never been known for its brains, but Harry, with his remarks about Trump having ‘blood on his hands’ (climate change), among other things, is highlighting the dangers of inbreeding.

    Lincoln went up against William Seward in the 1860 convention for presidential candidate. Seward was anti slavery and Lincoln WAS PRO SLAVERY , and although Seward was the favourite Lincoln got selected eventually after 3 ballots. However when elected, he was smart enough to make Seward secretary of state (to do the dirty work). There were a few assassination attempts against both during the war.

    Lincoln saw the emancipation of slaves in the CSA as a means to destabilise the economy of the CSA and it worked. Its likely that Seward was the one that did all the heavy lifting however.
    Funny how the yanks sort of gloss over these facts………..?

    Not only has Megan got Harry’s balls in her clutch bag, but she regularly squeezes them just to make sure Harry knows who’s the Boss. His ‘bitch’ has political aspirations on top of making lots of $$$$ in Hollywood trading on her name and title. She’s got the $$$ part of the equation seen up and now she wants POWER

    SPIT!

    The Queen must be having nightmares.Charlie talks to trees, William has the whole weight of succession on his shoulders, Randy Andy the Queen’s favourite has the FBI chasing him. Edward cunningly has stepped sideways and made a separate life for himself and his family. Phil the Greek is looking cadaverous and HRH can’t last much longer although her mum topped 100!

    He also needs to stop showing off his Masonic credentials all the time. It’s getting tiresome. We all know that she ‘pussy whipped’ you mate. Even your fellow officers in the army are embarrassed over your lack of balls.

    Thanks for that Eagles. Rohan is sitting here with me now as we speak.

    Been reading Bill O’Reilly’s “Killing Lincoln” on and off. Interesting background stuff on the final days of the War Between The States.

    To quote “honest Abe” in 1858, 2 years prior to the start of the Civil War:-

    “I have said a hundred times, and I have now no inclination to take it back, that I believe there is no right, and ought to be no inclination in the people of the free States to enter into the slave States, and interfere with the question of slavery at all.”

    Ahhhh politicians!…..The more things change, the more they don’t.

    @ Bunk X:
    Here’s another “honest Abe” quote from the debates with Douglas in 1858:-

    “I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races — that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I, as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything.”

    I don’t think they’d build a statue of Trump to the standard of the Lincoln Memorial if he’d said something like this.
    However, it just reinforces the argument that you can’t put impose modern day ethics on to historical events.

    @ Aussie Infidel:
    It was an economic problem. Most of the South were dirt poor, very few could afford a slave, let alone several.
    Slaves were expensive, too. A slave who could forge iron might cost $100K in today’s dollars, and when the snobbish Northerners told the slave owners to eat it, that didn’t set well for a lot of people.

    Meh. It happened, the problem of slavery was resolved in record time, but it cost a lot of blood and lives to do it the way they did.

    BTW, the practice of “shanghai-ing” wasn’t outlawed until the 1920s.

    Now for your next trick, do MARY LINCOLN.

    Lincoln was in no way not going to lead where people were not going to follow. And if they weren’t going to follow the flow he laid out, he’d change the flow.

    Did you see that apparently China changed the flow of a river along a border in India?

    Used to be called BlackBirding in the Pacific.

    I still don’t know where the 3 million white slaves of the Barbary Pirates stories disappeared down the memory hole. Who do you think rowed all of those Muslim galleys? Many from the Northern shores of the Med and from as far away as the Cornwall coast in the UK. Barbary Pirates were the scourge of the Med for centuries. The US Marines finally ‘convinced them that it was NOT a good idea!

    @ Aussie Infidel:
    I recall the term Black Birding.

    You just reminded me of Josh Slocum’s adventures. He was a one-man merchant marine, plied the eastern coast of the Americas, buying and selling goods. One time a trader tallied up the purchase, Slocum stopped him when “carpet tacks” were listed. The trader acknowledged that the tacks hadn’t been ordered and explained why Slocum needed them – pirates.

    They served as a burglar alarm. Leave them on the deck points up when you turn in for the night and they’ll alert you to any boarders who might want to slit your throat. Slocum bought them, found out that they worked as advertised.

    @ Bunk X:
    Like the US Australia is having a statue busting time as well. The ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation a government funded ($1.2 billion per annum) broadcaster is like MSNBC on steroids!”’Hence this joke….

    A little girl was leaning into a lion’s cage in Taronga Zoo in Sydney. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the collar of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter and eat her all under the eyes of her screaming parents.

    A Rebels biker wearing club patches, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch. Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl, and the biker brings the girl back to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.

    ABC reporter Andrew Probyn ( a well known Fascist communist reporter for the ABC) has watched the whole event. Probyn, addressing the Rebels member says, “Sir, this was the most gallant and bravest thing I’ve seen a man do in my whole life. The Rebels guy replies, “Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and did what I felt was right”.

    Andrew Probyn “Well, I’ll make sure this won’t go unnoticed. I’m an ABC journalist, you know, and tonight’s news will run this story. So, what do you do for a living, and what political affiliation do you have”?

    The biker replies “I’m a Army veteran, a Liberal ( as in Conservative) voter and I support Scott Morrison (the Australian Prime Minister) “. Probyn leaves.

    That night the biker turns on ABC News to see if it indeed brings news of his actions.

    ABC Headline: RIGHT WING ARMY VETERAN ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH.

    And THAT is pretty much sums up the ABC’s approach to the news these days.

    All along the Spanish, Italian Greek and Croatian coast lines stand dozens of small forts. Barbary pirates used to raid constantly carrying off slaves, women and female children to breed cannon fodder, men as galley slaves and male children as Janissaries or (children brought up to be shock troops for Turkish armies.

    Al of that seems to have disappeared down the memory hole with the white slaves working as farm labourers in the NE where their owners were also African Americans in a few cases.

    That memory hole must be bulging!

    Yeah. This will work once, and AOC and Schmidt’s gloating will not help their cause. I mean, teen girls in Park City? How much more ‘Mean Girls’ can you get.

    The problem is, they do ask. They find one or two disaffected people from those groups who wail about how such and such is insulting to their [insert aggrieved group]’s heritage. Thing is, when you look into it further, it’s just a few malcontents claiming to speak for the whole group. The majority either don’t see an issue or find it flattering that their group has been recognized in this way.

    Every rally is gen’l admit, first-come, first-in. The problem was protesters, etc., NOT bogus ticket requests.

    And no media outlet every checked the story w/the campaign.

    [I have seen stuff on twitter from people who said they couldn’t get in because the cops had blocked it off due to protestors]
