DACA Advocates Just Don't Get It!

What this nation is witnessing now is a full-on invasion! I believe it's because we citizens in America are too polite overall and have no concept of just how much the allowance of their staying in the country is costing them personally in a multitude of ways; sucking our social security funds, killing U.S. citizens in accidents, and committing crimes which strains our law enforcement forces who are already under attack.

Dreamers are showing their full colors of just how little regard they have for adherence to laws in the very country they were brought into by their parents who snuck into the United States illegally years ago. Their disregard for honoring any U.S. laws is obviously premised on the notion that human rights are superior to any laws a country may have. 

Yet, in the very country they originate from, the authorities there wouldn't even give them the time of day to argue this point, but just throw them in prison without any hearing and let them rot there. Might this reality have been the motivation of the parents of these DACA "Dreamer's" to flea their own country and enter the U.S. illegally?

To get a clearer understanding of this attitude which attempts to obfuscate and confuse the public who aren't able to think for themselves, I invite the reader to watch this video carefully by giving it your complete attention and focus on how Cesar Vargas repeatedly replies to every question put to him.

United Nations Delegates Stunned Into Silence

Apparently, as recently as September, an event at the U.N. occurred which caused the listeners to a guest speaker silenced by the surprise of who was saying to them about Hamas's impact on Palestinians; none other than the "Son of Hamas" Mosab Hassan Yousef! Watch the video of his speech to the large delegation of U.N. Ambassadors and the expressions of shock and silence as he reveals the truth about why Palestinians are living in misery and who is really to blame for it.

We can only hope and pray that this becomes a trend at the U.N. to bring out the truth about the countless atrocities and corruption which have occurred under its "organization".

A North Korean Human Rights Story

I received this very stirring message with the following video attached today. I do not know anything about this particular organization where this girl is speaking to her audience, but it reveals some rare insight into what the life of a North Korean is like under this dark regime of the Kim family.

I urge you to share this with others!

Question Everything!

It's been two days since we woke up to learn from the media that there was a horrendous massacre in Las Vegas. Within an hour or two we were told that it was Stephen Paddock, and accountant at Lockheed who had a pension, or obsession for gambling and had apparently no apparent motive for holding up in the 32nd floor suite room of the Mandalay Bay hotel for days to prepare for the shooting of hundreds of people attending the country western music concert only a couple blocks away.

Yes, some of the video footage makes it obvious that there was someone shooting an automatic - rapid fire capable - weapon from that high vantage point in order to spray fire down on the crowd below, but does that prove that it was Stephen Paddock doing the firing? Yes, the S.W.A.T. team which breached the room found Paddock dead from an apparent "self-inflicted gun shot wound", but that still doesn't prove that he was firing the weapon.

I'm not trying to defend Paddock, or anyone else for carrying out this heinous act, but what I'm trying to get at here is that all the facts have not yet been gathered about this extremely complex and mysterious event. And, for various reasons, I can't help but feel that we may not ever know the actual facts surrounding this largest mass shooting event in our nation's history. Call me a "conspiracy nut", but my gut tells me that several factors and elements involved in this whole event just don't wash. To help clarify my point, I'm going to list some key questions about it:

1. Why is there STILL no apparent or obvious motive?
2. How is it that this person had no criminal background, or record, that gives any clue about a motive?
3. While his brother in Florida has stated that he wasn't the kind of guy to do something like this, does it seem plausible that, as someone has suggested, that the rise in prescription drugs could be a factor in this case?
4. Why would he possibly need to have 23 different weapons, not to mention the accompanying ammunition necessary for those pieces, in the suite if he was alone?
5. Could he possibly fire even half of those weapons that were found in the suite by the S.W.A.T. team?
6. Why didn't hotel security notice something was "off" in their monitoring of security cameras when seeing him come through the lobby with multiple luggage pieces time after time; much more than a usual hotel patron?
7. Why did it happen that his female friend was out of the country at the time this event went down?
8. Why did he apparently wire $100,000 to the Philippines shortly before the event?
9. Why do we see images of the Mandalay Bay hotel from the outside showing two exterior windows, several yards apart, broken out?
10. Why is ISIS taking credit for this attack?
11. Why is the F.B.I. stating that there is "currently no evidence that Paddock joined ISIS"?
12. Why were there reportedly two video cameras found on that floor; one down the hall from the suite, linked to a monitor in the suite from which the shooting occurred, and another within the suite?
13. Why is there now an audio recording of the S.W.A.T. team released and played on Michael Savage's radio show disclosing that the team confirmed that there was a second shooter in the suite?
14. Is it too far fetched to conjecture that, if ISIS has claimed Paddock was a soldier of theirs, they set him up for this?
15. Is it plausible, given these unanswered questions, that the following might also be a possibility?
1. Paddock was having financial problems from his compulsive gambling.
2. Some other person, or group, or organization posed Paddock as the "patsy" by holding him hostage in the suite, carrying out the massacre of firing on the concert goers, then shooting Paddock and leaving him as the decoy and escaping by some means unknown.
3. The purpose for doing this might possibly be to further stir up division between conservatives and liberals in the country by making it appear as though a white male just decided to kill a bunch of people; reviving the decades long debate over "gun control" even before all the bodies have been taken off the concert grounds given some of the statements already made by some liberals in reaction.

Why do I get a feeling in my gut about this event that too many things just don't add up and that we're, from the media and law enforcement officials on the case, not being told all of what actually happened? Is the truth too revealing that it would most likely unite the country sufficiently when it was learned, to bring about the end of their control? If we do learn of something that makes all of these unanswered questions invalid or moot, then great. I've been barking up the wrong tree, as the saying goes.

But, given the quantity of fake news which we've learned about in just the last year, I can't help but wonder if that as well might be just another made up story for public consumption. 

Update - 10/03/17: New information from the Las Vegas Sheriff's press conference today revealed some information that does change some of my points. However... he also did make a point of supporting my point that it is their suspicion that there most likely was an accomplice to this horrible act and that he intended to escape after he was done killing. It appears that this story is going to play out for many months to come and we may not ever know what motive he may have had for carrying this out.

Update - 10/04/17: New questions are mounting from those who have the skill to think critically about things that don't make sense. While some of them seem bogus to me, there are other questions which reveal some very good points I hadn't even considered. Link #1 / Link #2 / Link #3 / Link #4

Update - 10/5/17: Ann Coulter's posted a new article on this issue. And then, there are those who's countering views use the Occum's Razor premise; that the simplest explanation is most likely correct.

The Truth Is Prevailing Over the Media Lies

Over the past two days Sean Hannity, at his new 9 p.m. time slot on FOX News Chanel has discussed the raging issue which has further divided our nation; NFL millionaires using our time to escape to our favorite past-time to push their political agenda. Below are the two links of those broadcasts for you to view at your discretion and time of choosing.

I hope you do watch both because they are chock full of rather informative and revealing points which inform - unlike most of the MSM on this issue - that will help clarify certain points not shared or discussed by the MSM. If we as a nation are to heal we must overcome the emotional and impulsiveness which is driving our current social discourse. 

Here's my parting question: If ignorance is bliss, then why aren't there more happy people today?

Thursday - Sept. 28th's show

Friday - Sept. 29th's show

I hope this is helpful to viewers for the sake of the future of our nation.

The Irony of It!

Why do I get the clear impression that those who kneel on the sidelines during our National Anthem are blind to the gratitude they should be expressing regarding the opportunity they took advantage of because they had a talent and worked hard to get where they are while others sacrificed so they could have that opportunity? Do they think that their poor judgement of taking a knee is offending the very people who pay their millionaire salaries will not get disgusted with their immature and poor decision making disrespect for the symbol they claim they're not targeting? Oh sure! Then, my question is, why are they doing it during the time when we celebrate our common heritage, of creating a nation in which they had the opportunity to become superstar athletes, which is viewed by the vast majority of the public as positive and uplifting? (This link above is Brandon Tatum of ASU telling it like it is.) And here is David Harris speaking his mind about this issue.

The following remarks were shared in my mailbox today and I post it here because it focuses on my questions.

So you want to take a knee!!

Take a little trip to Valley Forge in January. If you don't know where that is, just Google it from the sidelines. Hold a musket ball in your fingers and imagine it piercing your flesh and breaking a bone or two. There won't be a doctor or trainer to assist you until after the battle, so just wait your turn.Take your cleats and socks off to get a real experience. Then take a knee.

Then, take one at the beach in Normandy where man after American man stormed the beach, even as the one in front of him was shot to pieces...the very sea stained with American blood. The only blockers most had were the dead bodies in front of them, riddled with bullets from enemy fire.

Take a knee in the sweat soaked jungles of Vietnam. from Khe San to Saigon...Anywhere will do. Americans died in all those jungles.There was no playbook that told them what was next, but they knew what flag they represented. When they came home, they were protested as well..and spit on for reasons only cowards know.

Take another knee in the blood drenched sands of Fallujah in 110 degree heat..Wear your Kevlar helmet and battle dress...Your number won't be printed on it unless your number is up! You'll need to stay hydrated but there won't be anyone to squirt Gatorade into your mouth. You're on your own.

There's a lot of places to take a knee. Americans have given their lives all over the world. When you use the banner under which they fought as a source for your displeasure, you dishonor the memories of those who bled for the very freedoms you have. That's what the red stripes mean. It represents the blood of those who spilled a sea of it defending your liberty.

While you're on your knee, pray for those that came before you, not on a manicured lawn striped and printed with numbers to announce every inch of ground taken...but on nameless hills and bloodied beaches and sweltering forests and bitter cold mountains...every inch marked by an American life lost serving that flag you protest.

No cheerleaders, no announcers, no coaches, no fans...just American men and women...delivering the real fight against those who chose to harm us...blazing a path so you would have the right to "take a knee."

You haven't an inkling what it took to get you where you are...but your "protest" is duly noted. Not only is it disgraceful to a nation of real heroes, it serves the purpose of pointing to your ingratitude for those who chose to defend you under that banner that will still wave long after your jersey is retired...

If you really feel the need to take a knee, come with me to church on Sunday and we'll both kneel before Almighty God. We'll thank him for preserving this country for as long as He has. We'll beg forgiveness for our ingratitude for all He has provided us. We'll appeal to Him for understanding and wisdom. We'll pray for liberty and justice for all...because He is the one who provides those things.

But there will be no protest. There will only be gratitude for His provision and a plea for His continued grace and mercy on the land of the free and the home of the brave. It goes like this...

GOD BLESS AMERICA!

What's the Real Reason?

After this past weekend and what happened both in some NFL games around the country - plus the game played in London between the Jaguars & Ravens - I have several questions:

• What's the origin of this behavior; starting with the S.F. 49ers quarterback?
• Why is this behavior not being dealt with by the NFL Commissioner?
• What is the long-term outcome of this situation?
• Who's behind this for political gain?

I could ask several more questions, but these four are what I believe are the more important and to the point questions which should be asked. Below, I will give my view and understanding from what I see as the obvious answers.

1. The origin of this behavior is founded on what happened several years ago in Ferguson, MO and the Michael Brown shooting. The "social justice warrior" mentality has promoted a lie that this individual was "cut down" by the police man who shot him while he supposedly had his hands up and his back turned toward him. We know that is a lie! Forensics and research proved this. But that didn't change anything for them. Have you noticed how since then, there has been a gradual escalation of not only upholding a lie, but also that anyone who disagrees with that lie is a racist, bigot, etc. It is important to understand that the whole strategy of this divisiveness of our national culture of pride and unity is to counter any opposition to this meme.

2. Here's a fact:

"The NFL rule book specifically requires both teams appear on the field for the playing of the anthem, standing, remaining quiet, and holding their helmets in their left hands. Failure to do so can result in fines, suspensions, and the loss of draft picks. 

The rules are found on pages A62-63 of the league’s game operations manual:

The National Anthem must be played prior to every NFL game, and all players must be on the sideline for the National Anthem.

During the National Anthem, players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking. The home team should ensure that the American flag is in good condition. It should be pointed out to players and coaches that we continue to be judged by the public in this area of respect for the flag and our country. Failure to be on the field by the start of the National Anthem may result in discipline, such as fines, suspensions, and/or the forfeiture of draft choice(s) for violations of the above, including first offenses."

The notion that Commissioner Goodell is respecting their right to exercise their freedom of speech is merely a ruse to appease the social justice warriors and those who don't understand the players are employees of the NFL who are fined and punished in some form every season. Take the time when some Dallas Cowboys players wanted to wear a small sticker on their helmets showing support for the police walking the thin blue line in honor of the five Dallas police who were killed by the shooter incident in Dallas and were denied and threatened with fines if they did so! Why are there penalties for certain displays of celebration in the end zone if they can exercise their free speech rights by kneeling during the National Anthem?

3. For many fans of the game the NFL is now seen as an organization which supports anti-American oriented policies and views. This reaction by intimidation is precisely what the social justice warriors count on to further break down our nation's values and traditions. This is alienating those who see this issue differently and many are in agreement that boycotting watching, going to the stadium to watch, or purchase any NFL paraphernalia and exercise their right to associate with that mentality. Why? Because many have sacrificed so much, their time together with their spouses, the start of their career, and for some, their lives, to serve their country and protect the freedoms and liberties that symbol stands for which unites our country. I believe, as does Rush Limbaugh, that currently the Commissioner is thinking that siding with the social justice warriors will be the best side of the high wire he's walking right now and doesn't think the fans will care. Yet, here's one comment found on this issue which states otherwise:

"Pastor Jeffres has issued the ultimate slap down to the Pro Sports Cry Babies These players should fall on their knees and pray they have the ability to protest without having a bullet put thru the back of their heads as would occur in many countries around the world. Many of these players have come into vast wealth from poverty and in my personal opinion don't really understand what they are protesting about because listening to many of these millionaires talk it becomes apparent they didn't master many of the subjects they were supposed to be studying while honing their physical skills to sink a ball or block or run.. This is just another nail in OUR COLLECTIVE COFFINS being the demise of OUR REPUBLIC. While the pundits continue to push the progressive agenda that prefers Venezuela and Socialism over our Constitutional Republic. Now that is total IYI ( Intelligent Yet Idiotic )"

I believe that eventually, as we've already started to see, some stadiums and viewer ratings on various channels are already diminishing. Eventually it will reach a point where the NFL will be forced to see the light as they discover their revenue is shrinking and they've fostered the "inmates running the asylum" has been allowed. However, I doubt they'll admit it was their fault. That the players are ignorant of the fact that England started and promoted slavery in their rise to the largest empire in world history only points out how they don't know their history, or believe it's relevant to their current actions. I agree with the statement which says, "Those who are inclined to disrespect the flag as a symbol of our overarching freedoms and liberties, are ones who've not had a folded one handed to them at their loved one's funeral."

4. So, who's now backing this and why? Of course, it's the liberal leftists like Nancy Pelosi on Meet the Press Sunday. As for why... to understand that answer, it's necessary to realize that the Democrat Party is now in dire straights for holding onto any hope of rebounding after Trump's win. Over the last several years, the party has watched a decline in the number of elected offices across the country; from Congress, to Governors, to local mayoral races. As a result, they're losing their funding sources as hundreds of thousands of liberals have begun to "see the light" about the party's policies not producing the results promised. So, in my view, I believe the leftists, like Nancy Pelosi, see the NFL as a cash cow in hopes that those who side with the actions of players exercising social justice activism on the field will garner them more donations to their campaigns for promoting divisiveness. Over my lifetime of 64 years the ONLY thing I've seen result from liberal democratic policies is death and destruction of American values; abortion, right to work, breakdown of the family unit, dependency on bigger government and more regulations which strangle economic growth.

Here's a great point from Glenn Beck about this issue:

If the players actually wanted to help create change, why wouldn’t they use their fame and go to the local level? Engage local police departments and build relationships. That would actually do some good. But they’re not doing that. This whole thing is a sham. So why is the President of the United States getting caught up in it?

While I agree with the concept Glenn's expressing here, it's apparent to me that he doesn't understand the mindset of today's millennials and the difference in attitudinal approach about how to accomplish change is for them. They're convinced the only way to make change is to be an activists, garner attention because of their self-centerd lack of caring about what others may think, and had a great role model in the former president when it came to various events which occurred during his two terms. (We all know, all too well, what those were, now don't we?) 
  
For those who've read this far down this post, I want to provide you with something to help understand why so many Americans cherish our National Anthem; for they understand the story behind how and why it was written. It's well worth the time it will take to watch.

And now, we have an Oakland A's player being the first to kneel during our National Anthem. What's next once the NBA season begins this fall? 

If, and some predict this will happen, the National Anthem is eventually removed as a tradition for sporting events, what will be next?
