You might recall that last week when I was car shopping I ended up in heavy traffic because I95 was closed off because of the Rise of the Moors group that was heading off to Maine to train.
They appeared in court this week and the collecting media yawn was amazing:
While this was a big deal in Massachusetts it is practically invisible to the rest of the country, at least if you read the MSM. This is no surprise as that would violate DaTechGuy’s 3rd law of media outrage which states:
The MSM’s elevation and continued classification of any story as Nationally Newsworthy rather than only of local interest is in direct correlation to said story’s current ability to affirm any current Democrat/Liberal/Media meme/talking point, particularly on the subject of race or sexuality.
So now we have the NSA spying on political enemies of the administration and reporters and nobody in the MSM thinks it’s a big deal.
Yeah these guys are fighting Nazis
One of the ladies who complained about the “woman” with her dick out in front of young kids was beside herself at what had happened saying:
‘I’m a registered democrat, I’ve been to gay pride, I have no problem with gay people I have no problem with trans people,’ she said. ‘This is different. This is different. My daughter is six years old, and she was nude, and this person wasn’t making any attempt to look like a woman whatsoever.’
That’s just it, it’s not different, it’s never been different. This and worse has always been the end game but you were more interested in feeling superior to the conservatives warning you what was coming than in protecting your kid.
FYI the other interesting story concerning this is the Antifa thugs beating up protesters at the scene but being beaten by a member of the Mexican mafia and then running to the police they want to defund for protection.
The police there apparently didn’t care until about the violence while Antifa was dishing it out but once they were the target then they jumped in.
It’s pretty sad when you reach the point where members of the Mexican mafia play the role of the good guys.
A lot of people are suddenly shocked that Democrats are saying they’ve always been for voter ID. I’m not so much.
You see voter ID is big on people who vote on election day, if you are manufacturing false ballots for fake people, it’s not so decisive.
I’m sure they’re happy to make sure conservative prove that they have supposed to vote while they bypass this stuff, because in the end as long as they are the ones counting the ballots it doesn’t matter.
Finally James O’Keefe won a big legal victory that stopped Twitter from moving his case against them. Twitter presumed that O’Keefe was looking to get big monetary damages and was using as the basis for the move to the case to a friendly court.
It was a surprise to them but not to anyone who understands how O’Keefe & company roll.
The federal judge shot them down. Once the depositions start coming under oath fun things are going to happen.
Every time I post quotes by Thomas Jefferson on social media, something I do quite often because he has always been the founding father I most closely identify with, my Progressive friends trot out their customary talking points with maximum smugness. I’m absolutely sure you know which ones I’m talking about. The ones condemning Thomas Jefferson for owning slaves, which he inherited and tried desperately to free but could not because of Virginia law. and being a white supremacist. Jefferson very hard to free all slaves on several occasions but failed. He was no white supremacist either. Neither charges are valid and are discussed in these two books: Jefferson Lies and The Real Thomas Jefferson. Both are extremely well documented and chock full of quotes.
As Independence Day rolls around every year liberal news agencies bash Thomas Jefferson for hypocrisy because they claim he only included white people when he wrote the Declaration of Independence, that he did not touch on slavery at all. They are dead wrong on this. The original and complete text of Declaration of Independence, as originally written by Thomas Jefferson, is proof of hollowness if these charges.
The truth of the matter is that the original complete text of the Declaration of Independence is proof that Thomas Jefferson was actually a failed abolitionist. When he wrote the Declaration of Independence he included a clause condemning the King of England for England’s role in slavery. That criticism of slavery in our most seminal document would have ended slavery in the this newborn nation. The clause was eliminated by the members of the Continental Congress who were from colonies that supported slavery. Here is the deleted clause.
He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating its most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating & carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere or to incur miserable death in their transportation thither. This piratical warfare, the opprobrium of infidel powers, is the warfare of the Christian King of Great Britain. Determined to keep open a market where Men should be bought & sold, he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or restrain this execrable commerce. And that this assemblage of horrors might want no fact of distinguished die, he is now exciting those very people to rise in arms among us, and to purchase that liberty of which he has deprived them, by murdering the people on whom he has obtruded them: thus paying off former crimes committed again the Liberties of one people, with crimes which he urges them to commit against the lives of another.

As a bonus here are the standings of our face to face draft league which first began playing in 1987 in Fitchburg Massachusetts. We have two divisions with 4 teams each playing a 60 game season every other Saturday at Zeda’s Pizza in Fitchburg MA. The individual leagues are named for deceased members of the league. Five teams make the playoffs, the best record gets home field throughout and 2nd best record of the division leaders gets a home series against the best non-division winner while the final two teams play a one game playin for the right to face the best division winner in the playoffs.
New players are always welcome
