“Father Shouldn’t we put a stop to it” “Aye lad we should, we should it’s our duty”

Policeman 1: [Running into station seeing big fight & massive crowd] Call up Ballinrobe tell them to send the inspector down here send reinforcements the regents. There’s a riot down here!

Policeman 2: [Picking up phone and shouting into it] Ballinrobe, Ballinrobe!

[scene changes to the fight and then returns]

Policeman 1: [On the phone] Yes inspector, thank you sir.

Policeman 2: What did he say?

Policeman 1: He said put Five Pounds on Danaher’s Nose

The Quiet Man 1952

Every now and then people make a wish, a really stupid wish and every now and then the world decides to grant that stupid wish and give said people just what they asked for.

This happened to the “protestors” at UCLA yesterday. Police had arrived in force and the “protestors” being the leftists that they are did not take kindly to their arrival.

They chanted “Pigs Go Home” and had signs up saying “Fuck UCPD” and “ACAB” (all cops are bastards) deriding the police who had arrived to restore order.

This went on for a while, and then the police decided to grant their wish and decided to withdraw…

…coincidently right at the time when a group of people, armed with pipes, upset at an attack the sent a Jewish girl, arrived.

Chris Bray describes what happened next:

For two hours. Multiple agencies responding to a mutual aid request from campus police apparently had conflicting or limited orders, with people on the campus hearing that officers were warned to avoid using force or making arrests.

It was at this point where those folks who where chanting “Pigs go home” were suddenly shocked SHOCLED and outraged at the lack of police presence to protect them.

No police? Isn’t that what those students showing “pigs go home” just a few minutes before wanted? Why aren’t they all delighted?
Where are the police? Why they “fucked off” just like you asked them to.

What we seem to have hear is a failure to communicate the redefinition of words which has become common among the left these days. When the pro-hamas anti-Semite radicals where saying:

“Pigs Go Home”

They apparently actually meant:

“Please Mr. Policeman protect us from our enemies who want revenge on us for beating up that girl”

Bray again:

They never meant “fuck the police” as a statement of principle, as any form of expression regarding their personal beliefs. It was cosplay; they were making fashionable mouth sounds, morally and intellectually empty child-noises from howling human voids gibbering mindless nonsense with absolutely nothing happening in the gob of fat they use for a brain. Empty, pathetic, worthless.

Fortunately for the Hamas crowd the Mayor, perhaps realizing that it was a crowd of Democrat voters who were now at risk instead of just Jewish girls, finally called the police giving permission to engage and within an hour things were quiet again.

It’s worth noting that once the police had removed the danger the pro-terrorist protesters faced from their attackers a familiar refrain returned to the anti-Semite encampment:

(...until our enemies come back to fight)

On the plus side the students at this place of education were given a valuable lesson about police. One of their primary duties is to protect criminals from mob justice, which can be a life saving task if you’re one of the criminals who the mob is crying for vengeance against.

Expect cries of outrage from Democrat pols who were 24 hours earlier decrying the police moving in at Columbia.

Unexpectedly of course.

For those too young to remember the great fight scene referenced at the top here it is:

Ok. You’re a campus protestor 18-22 years old and have decided that you’re going to take the victory that life’s lottery has given you, a spot in an elite university that will lead to a high paying job and now you find yourself before a judge because you’ve decided to occupy a building or hit a cop or strike some Jewish kid because he’s a jew and you’ve done it at a time when Democrats are starting to worry that these protests are hurting their electoral chances for 2024.

What do you say to the Judge?

I think there is only one thing to do, move that they be tried as juveniles.

That might seem odd, after all if a crime is heinous enough you see juveniles tired as adults but I’ve never heard of an adult (18 & older) tried as a juvenile.

But think about it for a second.

For their entire lives they’ve been told they are special. They were given trophies for just showing up. When teachers tried to enforce rules on them they ran to their parents who immediately backed them up making school kowtow. They were told they could define themselves as they wished, remake words as they wished had their lessons dumbed down and their grades inflated. And if anything bad at all happened anywhere near them grief councilors were deployed and safe spaces created so they could cope.

In short they were constantly protected from the dreadful reality that the world is not going to be at their beck and call and life might actually be a tough slog. They were in fact so protected from the realities of life that when expected that you actually had a word created “adulting” to describe the moments when they were expected to act like adults.

I mean cripes, they have taken over a building and briefly held a hostage and even after that they are demanding that Columba feed them.

So I guess it would not be much of a stretch for them to go to court and plead that they be tried like juveniles, after all they’ve been treated like a bunch of immature kids all their lives.

Other than the Professional activists who are being paid to upend universities I would be real money that the girls at the “Free Palestine” protests are there for status and self esteem and the guys are there in the hopes of getting laid.

In fact I wouldn’t be surprised if more than one guy at these “camps” are taking liberties that they shouldn’t and the ladies who are being taken advantage of are told not to talk about it, complain about it or report it for the sake of the cause.


I don’t care what Radio host he said it to does anyone really believe Joe Biden circa 2024 is going to take a stage opposite of Donald Trump?

Cripes they don’t even let him walk to the airplane or helicopter without being surrounded for fear of people seeing how fragile he is and you’re going to put him in front of Trump who will ask Biden before millions of eyes how heavily did they have to drug you up to get you to this podium?

If they thought Biden could stand up to Trump they wouldn’t have spent the last year trying to jail him.


The White House Correspondents dinner is going on as I type. The folks at the Lincoln Project are suggesting it’s going to be a big win for Biden. Given the hundreds of protestors outside making trouble, all leftists btw, I think this is another example of redefining words.

The real irony is just about all the journalists in their spend most of their time whitewashing the crimes both of Hamas and the protestors themselves, but every revolution eventually eats their own allies.


As you might have heard Bill Barr who did his level best to ignore and enable the steal of 2020 by inaction endorsed Donald Trump for 2024 on the grounds that whatever he might think of Trump, Joe Biden and the Democrats are an actual threat to freedom.

Trump being Trump accepted the endorsement listing all the names that he has called Barr and stated from now on the label “lethargic” will be removed from the list.

CNN hoped to pounce on this but Barr just laughed and when pressed listed all the ways that freedoms are being threatened by the Biden Administration rules that were not being done under Trump.

That’s how bad this administration has been, they’ve got Bill Barr doubling down on an endorsement of Trump.


Finally I was out with a devout young friend of mine who was once my boss. He was part of the layoff at my place but because he is a hard worker and very talented he quickly found another job at a better pay and has by that hard work advanced himself admirably.

We went to Buffalo Wild wins and caught the Celtics vs Heat game and the end of the Red Sox Cubs game while we were at it. As I watched the finish of the Redsox game which carried into the 2nd quarter of the Celtics playoff game I saw something I had never seen before.

The Celtics have a spectacular defense and put on a show during the first quarter of the game. How much of a show? It took the NBA’s Miami heat until 2-3 minutes into the 2nd quarter before they managed to outscore the Boston Red Sox who put up 17 against the Cubs today.

If the Celtics play this kind of defense during the rest of this playoff run I don’t see how any team beat them. Bill Russell would have been proud of them.

Today I was reading a piece by Robert F. Graboyes PhD who is advocating the destruction of his Alma Marta Columbia University in order to save the University System in a piece titled Columbia Delenda Est.

Cato’s entreaty—“Carthago Delenda Est”—was intended not only to punish the Carthaginians, but also to warn other states from behaving as Carthage had. Laying waste to Columbia’s prestige would send a chilling message to other institutions choosing to tolerate, appease, and celebrate threats and acts against Jews.

While the entire article is worth your time I took note of a specific bit of it that I think speaks volumes (Emphasis Mine)

For states and morally upright colleges, make it easier for those students to transfer to your institutions. For example, in January, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis ordered his state’s universities to waive usual transfer requirements for Jewish students facing “well-founded fear of religious persecution” elsewhere and urged Florida’s universities to offer in-state tuition and scholarships to financially disadvantaged transfer students.

Now I’ve always been a believer that the right thing is also the smart thing and this is a perfect example because doing the right thing: Giving Jewish students in fear of their safety a refuge is the smart thing: Attracting students who are interested in actually learning rather than protesting and are from an ethnic/religious group that despite being 0.2% of the population of the world accounts for 22% of the Nobel Prizes which is a rate of 11,250% above average.

But even more important than that fact DeSantis did this in JANUARY the same month that the president of Harvard resigned. He was smart enough to see that it wasn’t the end, it was the beginning of what was coming and took action long before Columba descended into the pit.

That’s what far sighted leadership is. Anticipating a problem in the early stages and advancing a solution that both solves the problem and helps the organization you are leading.

DeSantis’ move is a godsend for Jewish students who no longer feel safe in the Ivy league but it will be a bigger godsend for the Universities in Florida who will get an influx of hard working motivated students, donor dollars from the families of those hard working students and with a little luck end up hosing a future Nobel Prize winner who will of course attract more high level scholars and thus dollars to the state.

Thus Ron DeSantis’ decision to do the right thing will benefit the people of Florida long after he is out of office, perhaps even long after he is dead and gone.

That’s why is was my first choice in 2024 and will likely be my first choice in 2028 no matter what happens in November and it’s a reason why more than just Jewish students in fear of their lives are heading to Florida in droves.

Unexpectedly of course.
