In The Mailbox: 07.28.20

Anyone expecting facts and logic from the #BlackLivesMatter movement is doomed to be disappointed. What the movement is about — other than making the organizers rich from corporate contributions — is promoting a political narrative to help elect Democrats by appealing to raw emotion. On the one hand, affluent bien-pensant white women are able to assauge their sense of personal guilt by masochistic rituals of self-denunciation. On the other hand, black people are encouraged to vent their frustration, resentment and rage through “mostly peaceful” protests and (of course) voting for Democrats. As I’ve said before, these “protests” are actually Joe Biden campaign rallies, because outside the context of election-year politics, we wouldn’t be having all these suburban punk anarchists running wild in Portland and Seattle (which are, by the way, two of the whitest major cities in the United States). Because the media are so dedicated to the partisan project of preventing President Trump’s re-election, the public is being bombarded with atrocity propaganda, intended to “energize” Democrat voters by portraying black people as victims of “systemic racism.” If we do not push back against this propaganda, our silence implies that we agree with the Democratic Party’s message: White people are evil. Police are racist murderers.

And thus there is a need to talk about overlooked facts:

Racism did not kill Breonna Taylor. She did not die from prejudice or discrimination. Her death was not caused by Confederate monuments or statues of Christopher Columbus, nor could her death have been prevented by social-media hashtags. If you don’t know who Breonna Taylor was, the short version of the story is that the 26-year-old was shot to death March 13 by police in Louisville, Kentucky, during a drug raid. The long version of the story is rather more complicated, but Taylor’s death has been reduced to a slogan (“Justice for Breonna”) by the #BlackLivesMatter (BLM) protest movement.
Like so many other police shootings seized upon by this movement, BLM activists are interested in promoting a political narrative that ignores specific details of Taylor’s death. Most of the movement’s supporters have probably never looked past the slogan-sized condensed version of the story — an unarmed black woman killed in her own home by white cops — to ask whether racism had anything to do with her death. Certainly the national media have not sought to determine whether the facts of this cause célèbre support the BLM movement’s mythology of “systemic racism” as the one-size-fits-all explanation for police shootings. Fear of being targeted by “cancel culture” plays a role in silencing all criticism of the movement, and therefore no one (no, not even Tucker Carlson) has questioned the BLM narrative of Breonna Taylor’s death. . . .

But it’s the pelvic thrust
That really drives you insa-a-a-a-ane!
LET’S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!
– “The Time Warp”, from The Rocky Horror Picture Show

We’re reasonably sure Mrs. Verlander hasn’t lost her mind, or even come close, but the recent stories about her doing what are apparently exceptional weights during her hip thrust workouts inevitably brought the old song to mind. Here she is on the weight bench, looking damn good for a woman who just had a baby not long ago.

RAWR.

Origins of an Error

Posted on | July 26, 2020 | 3 Comments

Success does not need excuses, and the United States has been arguably the greatest success story in world history. Scarcely 150 years from the establishment of the first English colonies here, the American nation developed such strength as to be able to win its independence in a protacted war against the British empire which was at the time the greatest naval and military power on the planet.

Less than 150 years after winning our independence, the United States had grown into such a mighty nation as to make the decisive difference in the Allied victory in World War I, a feat repeated less than 30 years later in defeating the Axis powers in World War II. Scarcely had that conflict ended, however, than the United States found itself called to lead the free world in the “long twilight struggle” against Soviet communism in what became known as the Cold War. In this, too, America was triumphant, and by the early 1990s, what Reagan called the “evil empire” of Soviet tyranny collapsed into “the ash heap of history.”

Certainly, a nation that has accomplished such historic feats has every right to call itself successful, and to expect that its successes should elicit praise and admiration, both from its foreign allies and from its own citizens. And yet this is not what have seen in recent years.

Even now, we see riots in the streets by mobs who proclaim that America is uniquely guilty of “systemic racism.” These mobs are organized and led by activists who call themselves “trained Marxists,” i.e., adherents of the murderous ideology that Americans thought we had decisively defeated when the Soviet empire collapsed. Why do so many young people follow and support these communist agitators in their mission to destroy American society? What is the source of this destructive evil, and why is it flourishing like a poisonous weed? Obviously, I have some opinions in this matter, but it strikes me that readers may wish to share their own.

Arson, Shooting in ‘Mostly Peaceful’ Protests Against Police Brutality

Posted on | July 26, 2020 | 3 Comments

Don’t call them “riots.” They’re Joe Biden campaign rallies:

A Black Lives Matter protester has been shot dead during a march in Austin, as a youth detention center and police precinct have been torched in Seattle and demonstrators gather again in Portland amid stand-offs with Donald Trump’s federal agents.
One protester was shot and killed when gunshots were fired during a protest in downtown Austin, Texas, Saturday night.
Shocking footage showed people marching along the street holding banners demanding an end to police brutality and racism when loud shots rang out.
This comes as protests gathered steam across several US cities Saturday, two months on from the Memorial Day ‘murder’ of George Floyd and in a show of solidarity for Portland where demonstrators and federal agents have clashed ever since Trump sent federal troops in.
The president has so far deployed federal agents to Portland, Seattle and Chicago.
The streets of Seattle turned violent Saturday when protesters set fire to a youth detention center and a police precinct, leading cops to declare protests had turned into ‘riots’ that afternoon.
Portland geared up for its 59th night of unrest Saturday with swathes of demonstrators marching from the federal building to the Portland Marriott where they believe federal officers are staying, in the wake of a violent night Friday that ended with at least one person stabbed. . . .
Austin police confirmed that an adult male was shot and killed near an intersection in the city’s downtown around 9:52 p.m. during the protest Saturday night.
Social media footage shows demonstrators marching through the streets shouting ‘black lives’ and waving banners reading ‘BLM’ before several shots are fired. . . .
Initial reports indicate the victim was carrying a rifle and approached the suspect’s vehicle, who then opened fire fatally shooting the man. . . .
In Seattle, violence flared long before nightfall when people went on a rampage, torching buildings in the city, while a Wall of Moms and Vets took to the streets vowing to protect demonstrators from law enforcement.
Around 2,000 people descended on the city as protests that had tempered following the dismantling of the CHOP zone earlier this month inflamed once more, after Trump said he was sending in federal troops as part of his sweeping law and order takeover in cities across the nation.
Seattle police declared the protest in Seattle a ‘riot’ just before 4:30 p.m. local time Saturday afternoon as people vandalized the East Police Precinct, set a small fire and an explosive was let off inside the building. . . .
The construction site of the new King County Juvenile Detention Facility was also engulfed in flames after a group marched on the building demanding it be closed before setting fire to the area.
Firefighters fought to tackle the raging flames billowing out of the construction area at 12th Avenue and Jefferson Street.

This collection of rancid human debris is the Democratic Party “base.” These are Joe Biden’s core constituents. The question is, why would anyone want to surrender America to such vile scum?

Crazy People Are Dangerous

Posted on | July 25, 2020 | Comments Off on Crazy People Are Dangerous

Sydney Parham went viral this week when a video showed her (allegedly, I hasten to add) pouring gasoline into a Jeep and setting it on fire. Oops!

She done blowed herself up, as folks would say down home, but perhaps I had better not invoke folks down home, because some of them have been known to use language that might be considered offensive. Meanwhile, police have arrested the (alleged) arsonist:

Authorities arrested a 26-year-old Fraser woman this week on an arson charge related to a Harrison Township vehicle fire, according to a statement from the Macomb County Sheriff Department.
Sydney Parham was arraigned Friday on a charge of third-degree arson after video allegedly showed her dumping gasoline inside a black Jeep at San Remo Apartments and setting it on fire.
The blaze occurred Wednesday in the parking lot of the apartment complex.
Deputies were dispatched about 8 a.m. Wednesday to the San Remo Villa Apartments near Union Lake Road on reports of a vehicle fire and found a black Jeep fully engulfed, investigators said in a statement. Township firefighters responded and extinguished the blaze.
In a video taken at the scene and posted to YouTube, a person is shown dumping gasoline in the back of the Jeep prior to leaning forward to throw a lit match into the vehicle. The explosion threw the individual back into a nearby vehicle.
Witnesses at the scene told responding firefighters and deputies that the woman in the video was Parham and that she knew the owner of the vehicle, according to the Macomb County Sheriff Department.
Parham was pulled over in Roseville and taken into custody, where she was treated for minor cuts and burns.
Parham was given a $20,000 personal recognizance bond prior to her next hearing Aug. 5.

Many believed the Jeep that Ms. Parham allegedly torched must have belonged to her ex-boyfriend, but the vehicle’s owner denied it:

Avery Stevenson . . . didn’t want to go on camera, but he did say he knows the suspect.
He said she was not his girlfriend. He said he’s not sure what the motive could be.

Is he telling the truth? Like, a woman decides to torch your car and you have no idea what her motive is? Or is it rather the case you don’t want anyone to know you were messing around with a crazy woman?

On the other hand, maybe she’s a complete lunatic, who became obsessed with Avery and burned up his car because he didn’t reciprocate her feelings. Either way, Crazy People Are Dangerous.
