Is the lockdown worm turning, or is it becoming permanent?

Posted on October 12, 2020 by jewamongyou

I’ve been a moderate since the outbreak of the CCPVirus. But as time progresses, I find myself becoming more skeptical of the official narrative. It’s looking more and more like a government power-grab.

Is there BLM in Nigeria?

Posted on October 10, 2020 by jewamongyou

Taking corporate media reports at face value, we would get the impression that it’s white police officers who are guilty of police brutality. These “news” outlets give the distinct impression that the world would be a better place without white people.

And yet the steaming pile of bovine feces, otherwise known as CNN, reports that police brutality is a major problem in Nigeria, which is almost 100% black. From Microsoft News:

Nigeria’s leading celebrities and activists have organized mass protests across major cities in the country Friday demanding an end to police brutality in the country.

The nationwide protests were a culmination of weeks of anger and outcry online by the country’s young people over claims of kidnapping, harassment and extortion by a police unit known as the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS)…

‘Nothing will happen if I shoot you,’

The hashtag #EndSARS, #StopPolicebrutality has continued to trend on Twitter as young people shared their stories, photos and videos that they allege show men in Nigeria police uniforms searching their cars and harassing them.

Lagos-based entrepreneur Samuel Otigba told CNN he has had several encounters with members of the police that he believes to be from the SARS unit. He said the encounters usually begin with requests for bribes. Otigba alleges that in May, he got into trouble because he declined to give a bribe to one of the officers when he was stopped after an evening out with his wife.

He says his phone was searched and he was threatened by the officer who told him, “You know if I shoot you, nothing will happen. The highest anyone will do is cry justice on Twitter.”

Life is cheap in Africa, at least compared to the West, so this is not surprising. Nevertheless, I wish the Nigerians well, and hope they succeed in addressing this problem.

What truly shocked me is the fact that CNN didn’t try to pin the blame on white racism. Had the authors been white, they would probably be subject to corrective action, or firing, for failing to link the abuse to whites. But all three authors are black Nigerians – so they probably have nothing to fear.

What Shall we do in the Future?

Posted on October 9, 2020 by jewamongyou

Lately, I’ve been contemplating the future, what it holds for us and how we should adapt. Since I’ve got a pessimistic streak, let us assume that Joe Biden wins the presidential election, and that Portland’s mayoral election is won by Sarah Iannarone, who is self-described Antifa.

As y’all know, I’ve been active in the local “Back the Blue” movement. I’ll briefly reiterate my reasons for doing so:

  1. I have a low tolerance for the demonization of any natural/neutral demographic. Seeing graffiti that says “Kill Cops” and “ACAB” (All Cops are Bastards) was enough to motivate me to push back.
  2. I wanted the social interaction, and the opportunity to make new friends with people who are reasonably close to my own politics.
  3. I felt it necessary to provide public opposition to the BLM cult that has gripped much of the country; I oppose mass hysteria and group-think.
  4. I enjoy pissing off libtards.
  5. It’s a step in the right direction as far as white-advocacy, implicit as it is.

My actual support for the police is luke-warm. Sure, most of them seem to be nice people, and my interactions with them have been mostly positive. But, by nature, they are tools of the government – and I don’t particularly like the government. The police are charged with enforcing the law, and many laws are unjust.

If Iannarone becomes mayor, it’s likely that councilwoman Jo Ann Hardesty will be Portland’s police commissioner. In that case, the police will end up as enforcers of “social justice,” In other words, they’ll be the governmental arm of Antifa.

Should we continue to “Back the Blue” then? Many Back the Blue activists are family members of police officers. They’ll probably continue their activism. As for the rest of us, probably not.

We will lack any support, or protection, from local government. With Biden as president, our “thin blue line” at the Federal level will also be gone. If we’re lucky, the Supreme Court might still recognize our rights – for a while.

Supporting the police, at least for me, is not an end in itself; it’s more of an expression of an overall philosophy: Support of law and order and the natural order of things. “Conservatism” if you will. When that cause becomes untenable, other outlets must be sought.

The group I associate with is largely Christian. If they were to become alienated from the police, many of them will protest abortion clinics. Some might gravitate to pro-Second-Amendment activism.

In the Portland area, it seems to me that we’ll be forced to go underground, spreading our message through graffiti in the wee hours of the night, or on the sly when nobody is looking.

On the “Back the Blue” Facebook page, some are expressing the sentiment that we’ve already lost the war in Portland, that we should accept defeat and take our rallies to more friendly, outlying, areas.

The problem with this attitude can be summed up by a piece of graffiti, which happens to be scrawled across the street from the site where Aaron Danielson was murdered. It quotes MLK:

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere

Our enemies perceive our very existence as “injustice.” As long as we exist anywhere, they will follow us. Fleeing to other areas is a losing proposition. It doesn’t work for whites, and it doesn’t work for rights. We should continue the battle in Portland in such a way that we’re not beaten or killed, and continue elsewhere publicly. When I feel I’m too old to fight anymore, at that point I’ll consider moving elsewhere.

Rose City Antifa

Posted on October 8, 2020 by jewamongyou

I paid a visit to the website of Rose City Antifa to get a better idea of what they’re about. One item interested me in particular. It’s their definition of “fascism,” which can be found on the “about” page:

Fascism can be hard to define because every fascist movement is different, and the ideology itself contains many contradictory ideas. The term has also come to be used to label any idea that is authoritarian, right-wing, or even just disliked. This poses a problem for us because we think it is important to describe each movement accurately. To that end, we use a definition of fascism that is based on a cluster of traits. While each movement may not contain all these traits, we call it ‘fascist’ if it has a majority of these characteristics:

  • Ultra-nationalism, which defines the “nation” around a shared racial, ethnic, cultural, or historical identity. This excludes some members of society, and people are expected to place their allegience to the “nation” over all other identities.
  • Belief in, and a desire to return to, a past utopian vision of society. This may or may not have existed historically, and they believe it has been lost due to “corruption” or “degeneracy”.
  • Scapegoating of marginalized/oppressed groups, who are blamed for causing society’s problems and preventing a return to this ultra-nationalist utopia.
  • Advocating for, or enacting, the removal of these scapegoated groups, including by violence, genocide, and/or ethnic cleansing.
  • White supremacy and belief in racist, patriarchal hierarchies that place the nation over other groups, men above women, straight people over gay people, etc.
  • Authoritarianism, often centered around a single, charismatic leader.
  • Antisemitism. Antisemitism is central to many fascist ideologies, and this conspiritorial thinking about Jewish people provides the corner stone that supports many other racist ideas.
  • Anti-communist, anti-liberal, and anti-conservative rhetoric.
  • Opposition to Unions and other Organized Labor groups.
  • Aspiring to the complete militarization of society. This includes Paramilitary organizing and vigilantism.
  • Anti-elitist, populist rhetoric to appeal to the “common man,” coupled with internal elitism and willingness to accept support from existing elites.
  • Fascism posits itself as both a revolutionary and traditionalist politic.

Clearly, this is one of those concepts that are hard to define scientifically, but can be characterized by a combination of factors. Another example of this is the concept of “race.”

When we speak of the “Negroid race,” for example, we might approach it in much the same way Antifa approaches fascism (and I’m not referring to any negativity here). A Negro will typically…

  • Have dark skin
  • Have kinky hair
  • Be prognathous
  • Have the Sickle Cell Trait
  • Have high levels of testosterone
  • Have longer limbs
  • Have denser bones

The fact that there is no single “race gene” or litmus test to determine race, is often used (by the Left) as “evidence” that race is not a valid scientific concept.

Let’s use this same argument against Rose City Antifa: “Fascist” is not a valid political/sociological concept – because there is no accurate litmus test to identify it.

Some of the criteria on their list caught my attention. First and foremost, the statement that a fascist engages in:

Anti-communist, anti-liberal, and anti-conservative rhetoric

The “Anti-Communist” part of that would qualify most Americans, even many leftists, as “fascists” – and for good reason; Communism has been responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of people in living memory. Pointing this out is not “rhetoric.”

But what about the “anti-conservative” part? My initial impression is that this was added as an attempt to deflect criticism, and to soften the first part of the statement. I suspect that they’re not sincere about it.

However, I did contact Rose City Antifa, identifying only as “a conservative” and seeking dialog. Perhaps they’ll respond. So far, they haven’t.

I also wonder about the first item on the list, the part about “ultra-nationalism.” Does it apply to black-nationalists? What about Jewish-nationalists (Zionists)? I think they only have a problem with white-nationalists or American-nationalists.

Ditto the second item, “Belief in, and a desire to return to, a past utopian vision of society.” I think Wakanda fits this description. Call it “Kumbaya-land” if you prefer. The fairy tale version of Native American life prior to the arrival of Europeans might also qualify – and this is manifested in opposition to Columbus Day, and the toppling of Columbus statues, and of many other statues depicting white settlers.

I think the part about anti-Semitism is somewhat accurate, at least when it comes to white-nationalists. Many, if not most, white-nationalists who focus on The Jewish Question (JQ) describe themselves as “fascists.” But what about the largest group of anti-Semites in the US, black anti-Semites? Does Antifa actively seek black anti-Semites in order to silence them, and to beat them up? I doubt it. Has there ever been an instance of Antifa showing up at a Nation of Islam rally to harass them and scream “Hey hey, ho ho, Farakhan has got to go!”? I don’t think so.

There’s a very useful saying among construction workers, carpenters and other craftsmen:

Measure twice and cut once

Antifa needs to think twice and attack once. For the time being, I would advise them to go home and hit the books. Then, after they’ve correcting their thinking, consider activism…

Oh, and they might also consider using spell-check.

Fake News from the Right

Posted on October 7, 2020 by jewamongyou

It’s not only leftists who believe everything they’re told; right-wingers do it too. Apparently it’s a common human trait to automatically believe anything we hear that validates our worldview.

After watching this excellent video from The United Spot, I started reading through the comments and found this one:

I don’t recommend opening the link, as the site seems suspicious. This is why I have removed the hyperlink.

B4U CRASH5 days agoNavy Seals on Joe Biden [COPY AND SHARE] Lest We Forget: When he was the Vice President, he did the most unthinkable thing fora man in his position. He revealed the names and the unit that killed Bin Laden

“On May 3 2011, at a national event in Washington, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. did the unthinkable – He publicly revealed the identity of the special-operations unit responsible for bin Laden’s killing, just to show that he “was in the know”.

His reckless action put at risk the lives of every member of Seal Team 6. The Taliban and other jihadists eager to avenge bin Laden now knew which unit to target. Stunned and shocked, Seal Team Six members immediately realized they were going to be hunted by al Qaeda sympathizers.

Soon after Biden’s reckless idiotic speech, an American CH47 Chinook was shot down by a rocket propelled grenade in the Tangi Valley, Maidan Wardak Province, Afghanistan, all 38 aboard were killed including most of Seal Team Six, this incident became known as Extortion 17.

After Biden had let the identification out, and before the Chinook was shot down, members of Seal Team 6 had called their families and told them to wipe out all connection to them, including social media, and disassociate themselves as far away from them as possible because they too would be in grave danger as the Taliban would attempt to find them in retaliation…. And Biden, well he didn’t even work up a sweat over any of it, and was just too stupid to realize what he had done.

I added a couple links here for those who want proof. It’s easy enough to look up the information yourself. These are just a few of many.

https://youtube/lMA1T9QWEI4 https://special-ops.org/./the-betrayal-of-navy-seal-team-6/.

“Someone said….. Well that’s just Joe.!” Really? No, this traitor revealed the names and signed the death warrants of America’s finest warriors and never looked back. Sorry, if you disagree, but he is not worthy of consideration as our President and Commander-in-Chief!!! Wake up. America can’t afford to have this moron as our President! You can copy and share the above letter via a NAVY VET to any and all media platforms (or live under socialism with no food)

Again, don’t open the link in the comment.

My first red flag was the poor English. Coming from a site that appears to be focused on American military operations, I found this odd… but I kept reading, and it became apparent that the article presented no evidence to the stated claim.

Then, at the very end of the not-very-long article, we find an “update” in bold stating that the initial claim turned out to be false, and citing some media sources to that effect.

There were ten responses to that comment, and not one of the authors had bothered to actually read the article in the link, at least not until its conclusion. Not one of them noticed the poor English, or that the site seems suspicious.

Be careful out there folks. Don’t believe claims you hear, or read, just because those claims happen to align with your political beliefs. It’s possible that the authors wrote the source article with the specific goal of entrapping conservatives, to use their gullibility against them.

I want to clarify that I have no idea whether the claim itself is correct. My point is that the so-called “evidence” cited in the comment was bogus, and people fell for it without any skepticism.

Avi Yemini’s work in Australia

Posted on October 6, 2020 by jewamongyou

Did y’all know that Australia has it’s own Tommy Robinson, and that he’s Jewish? It’s true. His actual name is Avi (Avraham) Yemini, and I’ve been watching his YouTube videos.

If you’re ever wondering how you can make some spare time more interesting, I suggest you patronize his channel. Most of his videos are short and very entertaining.

Here he is exposing pro-refugee activists as bigots:

I’ve also been watching The United Spot videos, because everybody needs a good laugh now and then. Here’s one that should lighten your day; check out their channel for many more:

Antifa hysteria in Portland

Posted on October 4, 2020 by jewamongyou

After our Back the Blue rally today, which was uneventful, a few Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer guys led us to the spot where Aaron Danielson was murdered in September. One of the men (Chandler Pappas) was a personal friend of Danielson, and wanted to hold a memorial service/public protest against Oregon prosecutors.

Here’s part of the speech (turn up the volume on the first one):

Shortly after that, Antifa showed up (start at about 3:27 to see the assaults):

I wasn’t able to capture some of their most outrageous conduct. For example, one of the Antifa, encouraged by the others, actually climbed the tree, removed the flags etc. placed there in memory of Danielson, and burned the flag on the street.

At that point, Chandler became very upset, and chased after the culprit. It’s hard to blame him; Danielson and Chandler were together that fateful night, and Chandler was right there when his friend was murdered. What kind of “person” tears down a memorial to a murdered man, and burns it on the street in front of the surviving friend? After this happened, there was a commotion, as they all disappeared, running, down the street. I was worried about Chandler.

A few minutes later, he returned. He had been pepper-sprayed in the face and was in pain. We sheltered him from the mob and some of his buddies tended to him. Somebody called the police at that point. A couple of us were using US flags to provide some privacy, and one Antifa kept trying to set my flag on fire. He kept moving his lighter up to the flag, and I kept moving it away. He seemed to think it was some kind of game.

Is setting fire to a flag someone is holding considered “assault?” I’m not a lawyer, and so many legal questions come up in such situations. Unfortunately, this means our hands are tied as far as defending ourselves; no matter what we do, it will be scrutinized later by the courts; every excuse will be made to prosecute us.

There were a couple of times when Antifa barked at me, and tried to get a response from me. I refused to respond, or acknowledge them in any way. Also, I was able to walk past them a few times, and nobody assaulted me, though they did hurl unkind words at me.

When the police showed up, they remained about a block away. I showed them the first video, and helped file an assault report. I don’t think anything will come of it, and when I pointed the culprit out, to the police later, I was told that they are not making any arrests. After a few minutes, the police left, with us on one side of the street, and Antifa on the other – as Antifa tried to intimidate us and throw things at us. One hysterical man came at one of the Proud Boys trying to start a fight.

While the police were still there, and Antifa was opposite us, I unfurled my “Antifa Loves Cops” sign, and my new “C’mon Man! Back the Blue” sign. The howls from Antifa were priceless – along with smiles from the police.

Each time one of Antifa tried to start a fight, others would eventually come over and try to pull him away – so not all of them were interested in violence. Certainly, none of us were.

In such confrontations, what sometimes happens is that neither side is willing to leave the scene; to do so would look like a retreat and weakness, so it can go on for hours. But I had other things to do, so I left to go about my day. I hope it ended with nobody seriously hurt.

I asked a Proud Boy member what he thought of Trump’s condemnation of his organization. He replied that “it’s just politics, and the fact that Proud Boys was brought up in the debate helped them greatly.” New memberships have picked up immensely. It reminded me of what happened when Hillary Clinton gave the Alt-Right free publicity.

Edit: One of our people was viciously attacked as he got into his car after the rally. From his Facebook post:

… As some of you know I was hit in the head with a bat getting into my car. Had to go to the hospital and get stitches… Not going to lie it hurts bad…

I would give my life for any one of you. It never crosses my mind that I could possibly lose mine for no reason. I show up not only to support our officers and their families but also try to protect them and their families and other supporters.

See all my life I’ve hated bullies. Antifa are just that… Bullies… They have no morals. No back bone. They target peaceful people, mostly women, children and older people. It’s a coward’s way of life.

I’m not going to stop coming out. I’ll admit though from now on I will be coming out with my carry permit and armed. I will never again be a victim.

Things are getting more violent and when you go out, go with other people. Me and my wife were alone when I was attacked… (edited a little for typos by JAY).

Edit #2: I don’t remember this, so it must have occurred after I left. The woman is part of our Back the Blue group:

Edit #3: It’s been a couple of days, and it has now become apparent that the corporate media has entirely ignored this event – despite the fact that several members of the press were present, and they DID report on the riots that night.

That night’s riots were, based on reports, exactly the same as all the other Portland riots over the past 100 days or so. There was nothing newsworthy about the night’s riots; our daytime confrontation was more newsworthy.

I can only conclude that the reporters were specifically looking for some footage that would portray the right-wingers in a bad light – but all the footage showed Antifa in a bad light, so they couldn’t use it. Hence, this is an example of media bias and propaganda by omission.

A Couple of Lawsuits to Watch

Posted on October 3, 2020 by jewamongyou

Downtown Portland businesses have paid a heavy price for the city’s politicians’ refusal to prosecute rioters, and their refusal to allow police to put a decisive stop to the riots. Now a business owner is suing the City of Portland for this negligence. From KATU2:

PORTLAND, Ore. — A downtown Portland jewelry store owner intends to sue the City of Portland for its handling of protests in late May.

Noha Kassab, CEO of Kassab Jewelers, said her family-owned store was was broken into and looted early in the morning on May 30. This was during the beginning stages of what would lead to more than 100 days of protest in Portland.

“I started looking on my phone to see who was in my store, it was bunch of people going into the store, broke glass, it was the most painful, disheartening experience I ever faced,” said Kassab.

The store owner said they are still calculating the costs, but estimates $2.5 million in damages…

“I’m not someone who came to this country with money. I came with an American dream. To see my American dream destroyed and it could have been preventable, is disheartening,” said Kassab.

Kassab filed tort claim notice with the city in mid-September. She alleges Portland leaders, “failed to plan or prepare for, and failed to adequately protect, downtown businesses.”

The storefront on Southwest Broadway is the company’s flagship location. They also have jewelry stores in Lake Oswego and Washington Square Mall.

“I hope to let the city know the amount of pain they have caused for failing to protect the businesses...

Let’s hope this lawsuit, and others like it, are expensive enough to motivate Portlanders to vote smarter in the future.

The second lawsuit is from Patriot Prayer leader Joey Gibson. From The New York Post:

The leader of the far-right group Patriot Prayer is suing the district attorney of the Portland, Oregon, region who is prosecuting them for rioting last year while refusing to charge left-leaning protesters who have been engaged in often violent demonstrations for months.

Patriot Prayer leader Joey Gibson and Russell Schultz are due in court Oct. 26 for trials stemming from a May Day 2019 riot, The Oregonian reported.

They were among six men accused of inciting a riot between the right-wing group and left-leaning Antifa outside a Northeast Portland pub. The other four pleaded guilty and were sentenced in January.

Gibson and Schultz accused Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt of unfair prosecution in a federal suit filed Friday. The suit claims that Schmidt is selectively prosecuting them based on their political beliefs, because he is refusing to dismiss the single felony riot allegation against them in light of his new policy.

Schmidt announced last month that his office wouldn’t pursue riot charges against most of the hundreds of people who have been arrested in Portland protests in recent months. He specifically said rioting charges would not be prosecuted unless accompanied by another crime.

Not mentioned in the article is the fact that Patriot Prayer never actually set anything on fire, never smashed windows, never destroyed any statues and never defaced any property. BLM rioters have done all these things, and few (if any) of them were prosecuted.

This case will show us if there is still justice in this country. Personally, I don’t have much faith in the courts when it comes to matters such as these.

In the meantime, we can take satisfaction that Oregon Governor Kate Brown’s intended actions against the Proud Boys, where she deputized over 50 Oregon police officers as federal agents, specifically to prosecute conservative activists, has backfired against her and her buddy, Portland mayor Ted Wheeler. From The Daily Wire:

The United States Attorney for Oregon, Billy Williams, said Wednesday that the Oregon State Police will remain federal deputies, despite Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler’s pleas.

Mayor Wheeler asked the U.S. Attorney’s office and the Department of Homeland Security to rescind the federal designation earlier this week, well before the designation is due to expire, out of concern that federal deputies could charge Portland’s protesters with federal crimes for assaulting officers, attacking federal buildings, and fomenting unrest.

The mayor’s office issued a statement noting that they’d “asked the U.S. Attorney’s office to withdraw the designation.”

“A key feature of the designation is that anyone who assaults a federally deputized official could be subject to federal charges,” the statement added, per Oregon Live. “Fortunately, I am confident the Multnomah County District Attorney will continue to prosecute anyone who assaults or otherwise harms police officers or others.”

It would be satisfying if the deputized agents ended up arresting Antifa/BLM activists instead of the intended (conservative) targets.

Trump condemns Proud Boys. God afflicts him with CCP Virus

Posted on October 2, 2020 by jewamongyou

Under pressure, President Trump stated Thursday:

I condemn all white supremacists, I condemn the Proud Boys. I don’t know much about the Proud Boys but I condemn that

Immediately after doing so, Trump was stricken with the CCP Virus.

At first, I was alarmed; the only good that might come of this is that Trump might not be able to participate in future debates – thus avoiding further making an idiot of himself.

I still am alarmed, not that I care about Trump personally. A real man would have refused to condemn Proud Boys – either on the grounds that he “doesn’t know much about them,” or on the grounds that they’re actually not a hateful, dangerous, group.

I’ve previously pointed out that Proud Boys is not a white-advocacy group. They’re a conservative group. But they’re like the canary in a coal mine. If Proud Boys is subject to official condemnation, then actual white-advocates certainly are.

That Trump is willing to condemn white-advocacy (AKA “white-supremacy”) confirms that he is our enemy – but less of an enemy than Biden. Therefore, in a desperate bid to preserve some of our liberties, I’ll be voting Trump, if he’s still alive during the election.

The First and Second Amendments are in danger, and today I’ll be writing about the Second Amendment.

We’re living in dangerous times. Roving mobs disrupt our lives, leaving destroyed businesses, toppled monuments and damaged infrastructure in their wake. Mobs are dangerous, but the corporate media continues to describe them as “peaceful protesters.” This is bad – but even worse is the fact that The Law doesn’t appear to recognize the inherent danger that mobs present.

A mob isn’t simply a collection of individuals. From How Stuff Works:

When a group of people has assembled because they’re emotional and angry about something, it only takes one act of violence to whip the crowd into a fury. Others will follow the initial rioter’s lead and begin destroying property or hurting people. A lot of research has been conducted into the mindset of a violent mob. Being part of a group can destroy people’s inhibitions, making them do things they’d never otherwise do. They lose their individual values and principles and adopt the group’s principles, which, during a riot, are usually to cause destruction and avoid detection. This standard can seem to be a just and righteous one, since the mobs assembled after an act of perceived inequality or unfairness, and the communal emotion can make the cause seem even more important. Being in the midst of a mob can be exciting and powerful, and it can make people feel invisible — they are part of a huge group, and they won’t be detected or held responsible for their actions.

Having once been attacked by a mob, I can speak of this with some authority. But, as I’ve said, The Law doesn’t seem to acknowledge the inherent danger of mobs, and the media has neglected its duty to inform. As a result, citizens are sometimes confronted with situations they are unfamiliar with, uninformed about, and unsure how to correctly react. This is a recipe for disaster.

In July, 2016, conservative journalist Aaron Strickland was confronted with a mob in Portland, Oregon. Fearing for his safety, he brandished his gun and pointed it at the advancing “protesters.” He was later found guilty, by a judge, of several felonies and sentenced to several years in prison, where he remains. He will be eligible for parole next year.

In my opinion, this was not a clear-cut case, and Strickland could have handled the situation better; just because you happen to have a gun doesn’t mean the gun should be your default solution in such situations; I think bear spray would have been better in this situation, and he knew, in advance, what he was getting into. However, we have the benefit of hindsight, and the mob was clearly advancing upon him. That’s a frightening state of affairs, and The Law should take this into account. Private citizens should be given the benefit of the doubt when dealing with mobs, which are inherently dangerous. When mobs are involved, there needs to be more leniency for gun-owners.

On May 30th of this year, Jake Gardner shot a rioter who was (allegedly) attacking him at his business. Having moved to Oregon, Gardner recently took his own life. From reclaim the net:

38-year-old Jake Gardner, who had suffered two traumatic brain injuries after serving as a Marine in Iraq, was allegedly confronted by a mob at his Hive Bar in downtown Omaha. According to prosecutors, after being pinned to the ground, Gardner fired warning shots and then got involved in a scuffle with 22-year-old James Scurlock, in which Schurlock was shot dead…

A GoFundMe for both Scurlock and Gardner was set up by supporters – the first for the family of Scurlock and the second for Gardner’s defense fund as reports said Gardner acted in self-defense.

However, while Scurlock’s GoFundMe campaigns went on to raise over $275,000, the platform shut down Gardner’s campaigns after complaints from activists, cutting his ability to fundraise for his legal defense…

In June, prosecutors were clear that Gardner acted in self-defense – such that, on June 1, Donald Kleine, the Douglas County attorney, made the decision not to bring a case against Gardner.

However, after much backlash online, in a press conference this week, while not giving details of any newly-uncovered evidence, special prosecutor Fredrick Franklin said that a grand jury was now “able to understand that Jake Gardner was threatening the use of deadly force in the absence of being threatened with a concomitant deadly force by James Scurlock or anyone who was associated with him,” and chose to prosecute for manslaughter, the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, attempted assault, and terroristic threats.

Faced with what was expected to be a $1 million bail, Gardner didn’t immediately turn himself in when an arrest warrant was signed on Friday as he was out of the state.

“The grand jury indictment was a shock to him,” Gardner’s attorney, Stuart Dorner said today at a press conference. “He was really shook up.”

Dorner said Gardner planned to return from around the Portland area on Sunday evening.

On Sunday evening, police in Hillsboro, Oregon, confirmed that Gardner was found dead outside a medical clinic, with wounds confirmed to be “by his own hand.”

I wasn’t there, and I don’t know exactly what transpired, but it speaks volumes about our society that a man of little means, denied the ability to earn a living, is not even permitted to collect charity for his own defense – a defense that only became necessary because of political pressure by a mob.

On June 28th of this year, Mark and Patricia McCloskey were confronted by a mob in front of their home in St. Louis. From BBC:

About two hours into the demonstration on Kingshighway, the marchers began making their way towards Krewson’s home. They walked north and made a left toward a street called Portland Place, which is blocked at both ends with imposing stone and wrought iron gates. Signs marked “Private Property” are posted at either end.
One of the houses on Portland Place is a spectacular, $1.15m (£880,730) Renaissance-style palazzo, built by an Anheuser-Busch beer fortune heiress in the early 1900s. This is the home of husband and wife Mark and Patricia McCloskey, who are both personal injury lawyers.
The confrontation

How it all began has been hotly contested. Mark McCloskey in one subsequent media interview said the protesters “smashed down” the gate.

“As soon as I said the words ‘private property,’ it seemed to enrage them,” he told Fox News “I ran in, got my rifle. I started standing on the wing of the patio saying, ‘Private property! Get out! Get out of here!’ They kept pouring in. That seemed to make them want to come forward.”…

On 10 July, city police searched and seized both of the guns from the couple. About a month later, St Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner charged both with “unlawful use of a weapon”, which is a felony. The complaint said that both had displayed their semi-automatic weapons “readily capable of lethal use, in an angry or threatening manner”.

The McCloskeys are well to do, and the both President Trump and Missouri governor Mike Parson have publicly defended the McCloskeys, stating that they were within their rights according to The Castle Doctrine.

On August 22nd of this year, Proud Boy Alan James Swinney was confronted by a BLM mob, one of whom (allegedly) threatened him with a sharp object. In response, Swinney pulled out his gun. From the New York Post:

A member of the far-right group the Proud Boys was arrested Wednesday for pointing a gun at rivals during clashes in Portland, Oregon, a report said.

The suspect, 50-year-old Alan Swinney, was hit with assault and several weapons charges for allegedly training a revolver on anti-fascist protesters during the clashes on Aug. 22, according to Oregon Public Broadcasting.

The far-right and leftist groups beat one another with bats, slugged each other and fired paintballs during the melee that day, according to the report.

Swinney remains incarcerated at the Multnomah County Jail. Eight charges have been filed against him. A short video clip of the incident is available, but it’s very short, and it’s difficult to ascertain what happened. Initially, Swinney was not charged; it’s possible that prosecutors were coerced into filing charges by political pressure groups (AKA BLM).

On August 25th of this year, Kyle Rittenhouse went to Kenosha to help protect businesses and to provide first aid if needed. From WPR.org:

Rittenhouse traveled to Kenosha on Aug. 25, two days after Kenosha police shot Jacob Blake, a Black man, in the back multiple times. The city had erupted into protest following Blake’s shooting, and multiple buildings had been burned.

Rittenhouse, a lifeguard and vocal supporter of police, said he was there to protect a local business and offer medical help if needed. He walked through the crowd that night with an AR-15 rifle strapped to his chest.

What happened that night is disputed, but the #FightBack Foundation has released a dramatic video that tells Rittenhouse’s side of the story. It’s a compilation of cell phone footage from the night of the shootings.

When it was over, 2 men were dead, and one was injured. From the videos, it appears that Rittenhouse was acting in self-defense, and he did peacefully turn himself in to the police. Nevertheless, he was arrested and charged with first degree murder. The Gofundme page, set up for his defense, was removed. Rittenhouse’s attorney, Lin Wood had his Twitter account suspended.

On September 18th of this year, Jim Geisler was confronted by a mob in Louisville, Kentucky. From The Blaze:

Louisville Metro Police declined to file charges against the man despite the demands from many on social media, and posted an explanation on its Facebook page.


“Yesterday, during the protest activity in the Hurstbourne/Shelbyville Rd area, individuals were observed surrounding and inflicting damage on a vehicle at the traffic light on Hurstbourne Pkwy. During this event, a woman who was participating in the protest pointed a handgun at the occupant of the vehicle, placing him and others in extreme danger,” the post read.


“Fortunately, officers were able to move the crowd away and took her into custody a short time later without incident,” the post added.

In this case, it was the “protester” who was charged, and the motorist was not charged – but he still lost his job:

The man was eventually identified as Jim Geisler and he lost his job at American Air Filter Co., which released a statement explaining the decision.

“AAF Flanders supports the right to peacefully assemble as an expression of free speech,” said a spokesperson for the company.

“In our view, the actions of this individual show poor judgment and are inconsistent with the core values of our company,” the spokesperson added. “As such, this individual is no longer with the company.”

What can we learn from all this? That the Establishment Left, realizing it cannot overturn the Second Amendment, has found a way to circumvent it. By sending a clear message that those who use, or even brandish, their weapons against black criminals or “peaceful protesters” will forfeit their freedom and fortune, they’ve essentially nullified the primary purpose of bearing arms.

Yes, you’re welcome to bear arms; we will not prevent you from doing so – but God help you if you actually use them to defend yourself against our pet demographics.

Things will only get worse if Biden is elected. Therefore, I encourage all of y’all to hold your noses and vote for Trump.

Creating crime through criminal laws

Posted on October 1, 2020 by jewamongyou

It’s illegal to discriminate in hiring based on race or gender. From Oregon.gov:

Oregon law protects you from discrimination based on your sex and sexual orientation, including gender identity.

It’s illegal for your employer, public businesses, places of housing, or other “public accommodations” to treat you differently because of your sex, sexual orientation, or gender.

You are protected both at work and outside of work.

Federal civil rights laws and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission also protect you from discrimination based on sex, gender identity including transgender status, or sexual orientation.

But it’s perfectly legal, even required, for the government to discriminate against white people and against men. Yes, some people are more equal than others.

The City of Portland preferentially awards contracts to businesses that are not owned by men, and are not owned by white people… but the powers-that-be don’t like to phrase it that way; instead, they prefer to describe as giving…

… preference to “disadvantaged businesses.” That category includes businesses owned by Blacks, Hispanics, Native Americans, women and others who have historically had less access to lucrative government contracts.

“Historically” is such a loaded term. Everything that happened in the past is “historical.” Also, as Orwell once said, Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

But enough about the past. What about the present? Presently, a Portland business is being prosecuted for (allegedly) trying to circumvent laws that discriminate against men. From OregonLive:

Portland fines contractors for allegedly creating ‘front company’ to certify as woman-owned business

The City of Portland said Wednesday it will fine the owners of a painting contractor $20,000 for allegedly creating a “front company” to qualify as a woman-owned business. The city is accusing the business, Portland Coatings, of receiving more than $1 million in contracts while falsely claiming to be owned by a woman.

Portland had been investigating Terezia Nyland and her husband, Michael, since 2017, after an unspecified tip to the city’s ombudsman office. The city said Portland Coatings’ address is actually the loading dock for a business Michael Nyland owns, Williamsen & Bleid.

Portland taxpayers shouldn’t be concerned about the whether a man or a woman owns the painting company; they should only care about whether or not they’re getting good value for their money. But when preferential treatment, based on gender or race, is written into law, it’s inevitable that taxpayers will end up paying more.

Meanwhile, in Hawaii, a bona fide minority-owned business, having (apparently) won its government contracts through such discriminatory practices, has been caught doing some shady business. From The Civil Beat:

A politically connected defense contractor in Hawaii was arrested and charged Wednesday by the U.S. Justice Department for allegedly bilking the federal government out of $12.8 million in coronavirus relief aid meant to help small businesses.

Martin Kao, 47, is the CEO of Martin Defense Group, formerly known as Navatek LLC, a Honolulu-based company that over the years has received millions of dollars in federal contracts, primarily to design state-of-the-art ship hulls for the U.S. Navy.

He’s charged with bank fraud and money laundering for falsifying loan applications for the Paycheck Protection Program that was created by Congress as part of the $2 trillion CARES Act meant to stave off financial ruin for individuals and businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic…

Kao was taken into custody Wednesday. The U.S. Attorney’s Office filed a motion to hold him without bail saying he is a serious flight risk.

The article doesn’t go into specifics, but we can surmise that the reason Kao is a ” serious flight risk” is that he has strong connections to a foreign country – probably somewhere in Asia. Yes, this is just a wild guess on my part.

Another detail that is omitted is that Navatek was considered a “minority-owned business.” From govtribe.com we can garner this information:

There’s no way to know if Navatek would have acquired its lucrative government contracts had it not been a “minority-owned business,” but these two cases give us a snapshot of the kind of perverse “justice” and corruption that come with gender/race-based government policies. In both cases, it’s mainly innocent people who suffer as a result of such policies.
