Late Night With Rule 5 Monday:
Twin Peaks

For reasons best known to their marketing departments, some of the restaurants offering free food to veterans put off actually doing so until today, and one of those was Twin Peaks, one of a number of contenders in the “breastaurant” category of sports bar franchises that includes Hooters, Tilted Kilt, and probably some others I’m not aware of. The ladies at the local Twin Peaks above Planet Hollywood had eschewed their usual plaid tops for some urban camo tops, and I wish I’d had the presence of mind to take some pics. Since I didn’t, here’s one of their waitresses in more traditional uniform.
As usual, most of the following links are to pics generally considered NSFW, and the management is not responsible for any spilled beer, mushy fries, underdone/overdone burgers, wilted lettuce in your salad, or other unfortunate consequences of your failure to click with discretion.

The Queer State of California

Posted on | November 13, 2017 | 1 Comment

 

News from the Left Coast:

The Palm Springs, Calif., City Council now has transgender and bisexual members — and is entirely LGBT or queer.
Lisa Middleton made history as the first openly trans candidate elected to a nonjudicial office in California (Victoria Kolakowski was elected an Alameda County Superior Court judge in 2010). She and Christy Holstege, a bi woman, won the two open seats on the City Council in a field of six candidates in Tuesday’s election. Their election means that the desert city’s council is 100 percent LGBT or queer, according to Equality California, with representation from across the spectrum of those identities.

This consolidation of LGBT power was celebrated by Equality California and the Victory Fund. The latter group spent more than $600 million during the 2012 election campaign. In politics, a highly organized (and well-funded) minority can always defeat the disorganized majority. This is why the preferences of lobbyists matter more in Washington than do the interests of average Americans. The success of the LGBT lobby in gaining complete control of Palm Springs government demonstrates this, and also demonstrates that demographics is destiny.

The media age of the population of Palm Springs is 51, substantially older than the U.S. median age of 37. Why is this? Well, Palm Springs attracts a lot of retirees, and has very few children. Those under age 15 are only 11% of Palm Springs residents, whereas nearly 20% of the U.S. population is under 15. If the residents of Palm Springs are having very few children, and the elderly residents don’t work, where will they find the workforce to provide all the services necessary to maintain this affluent community of nearly 50,000? Oh, yes — immigrants. Twenty-five percent of Palm Springs residents are Hispanic, and another 5 percent are Asian. Who do you think will be working behind the counter at the Petsmart store in Palm Springs when the rich white gay people go shopping for Christmas gifts for their cats? Who collects their garbage and hauls it to the landfill? What is the ethnicity of the housekeeping staff at the Palm Springs hospital where the white old folks go when they’re sick?

There is an obvious correlation between support for “gay rights” and advocacy of an open-borders immigration policy. Rich white liberals (gay or otherwise) tend to have few children if any, and are in favor of importing brown people to work in menial service jobs. The lesbian sociology professor flatters herself that she is supporting “diversity” as she buys her $3 Starbucks latte from the Salvadoran barista.

The Kakistocracy points out that white liberals often ride to power on brown horses, so to speak. Yet this is always a transient phenomenon, as eventually the riders will be tossed from their saddles. Herb Stein famously observed, “If something cannot go on forever, it will stop,” and the kind of demographic trend exemplified by the election of an all-LGBT city council in Palm Springs is ultimately unsustainable.

God and Man in the Information Age

Posted on | November 12, 2017 | 1 Comment

“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.”
— Daniel 12:4 (KJV)

One of the basic proofs of the Bible’s truth is the accuracy of prophecy. As every Christian knows, Jesus was the Messiah foretold by Old Testament prophecy, His atoning sacrifice prefigured in the story of Genesis 22, where God requires Abraham to prove his obedience by the sacrifice of Isaac, only to spare the boy at the last minute. The ultimate significance of this was understood by Jesus, of course, in a way that the scribes and Pharisees did not. As Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount, he came to fulfill the law of the Old Testament, not to destroy it (Matthew 5:17) and by delivering Him up to be crucified by the Roman authorities, the Jewish leaders unwittingly brought about that fulfillment.

Before His death, Jesus prophetically foretold the coming destruction of Herod’s Temple at Jerusalem, which was fulfilled in 70 A.D. His disciples responded to this prophecy by asking Him about the future. Jesus then warned them not to be deceived by false prophets and referring to the Second Coming said, “of that day and hour knoweth no man.”

Not even Jesus could predict to His disciples when the final Judgment Day would come, because this was known by “my Father only” (Matthew 24:36), yet speculation has flourished. Many have offered their own interpretations of the Apostle John’s Book of Revelation, which baffles every attempt to translate its mysterious symbolism into definite meaning. Especially since the the 1960s, various doomsday prophets (including dangerous cult leaders like Charles Manson and David Koresh) have claimed to possess the secret meaning of Revelation.

A Little Due Process For Roy Moore

Posted on | November 11, 2017 | Comments Off on A Little Due Process For Roy Moore

by Smitty

The allegations of impropriety alleged in the WaPo against Roy Moore are a big deal. We can rehearse the power arrangements, the difficulties that victims face in pursuing justice against people in positions of power. But let’s throw in a word for due process.

Twice in my life I’ve had allegations levelled at me. Once, on active duty, I returned to a training installation where I’d previously had a girlfriend. Some months after I had departed on orders, I got a “Dear Smitty” letter. I’d left an item with her as an “do wait for me” token, and did retrieve it, along with a “Leave me alone” note. I also got a warning call from the police, informing me of her allegation that I was “stalking” her. I doubt that any reasonable observer of either gender (or any of the more recent ones) would in any way fault the substance of any of my conduct any toward her at any time. More likely, I would have drawn laughter. I also got to explain the entire embarrassing situation to my training command. It was somewhere between embarrassing and humiliating. Hopefully, her life has gone well in the decades since.

The other time, fresh off of active duty, a pregnant minority female on an IT project alleged in an email to HR that she had gone into labor and delivered her baby prematurely due to stress brought on by the harassment she received from me (the assistant project manager). Again, I don’t think that any reasonable jury would have found the slightest substantial (or even stylistic) quibble with our interaction. Nevertheless, our legal system is not about justice. I immediately sought a professional transition. Subsequently, I guess she did take the company to court. I’m not sure of the final details, but the company is pretty much a memory now. Hopefully her life is a good one and her family is healthy.

The point of those tales is that allegations are stressful, even when groundless. If there was a crime in Roy Moore’s past, it should be brought to light, and let the voters of Alabama judge whether this Judge merits a Senate seat. On the other hand, there is a non-zero possibility that, even though Roy Moore went to West Point and not UVA, the WaPo story is sheer hogwash of Rolling Stone proportions.

Were it true that the WaPo allegations against Roy Moore were unfounded, the unfounded allegations would be about as despicable as the crime Moore is alleged to have committed. I do hope Roy pursues legal relief from the WaPo if he is innocent.
