The teeter totter of American civil rights is once again at its peak. The institutionalized idea of racism has reached the headlines of major media outlets, but why aren't the leaders in journalism highlighting the true racists? Why is there another failure to identify the truth, why is there a failure to identify the real threat?
Something that really irks me is when society, and the media in particular, misuse or manipulate the true definition of a word. For example the word racism. Take a hard look at the use of the word in society and honestly answer to yourself, why is it only whites can be racist? Why is it that a white politician has to be so defensive of the label?
The December 2002 comments made by Trent Lott during Strom Thurmond's 100th birthday became a political career killer. Trent Lott said the United States would have been better off had Strom won his presidential campaign. Though the quote itself was not racially charged, the time in history when Strom was running for president he was an open segregationist. It was obvious at the time of the comment that Lott intended the words to be a compliment to Thurmond at his 100th birthday, the media neglected to include the context in which the quote was used. To the contrary, where was the media during Robert Byrd's career in the senate? Where was the media when Bill Clinton justified Robert Byrd's history in the KKK as just a route used to get elected in the south?The unfair treatment of conservative politicians compared to liberal politicians is disturbingly obvious.
The latest example of reverse racism actually occurred during the 2008 Presidential election.
A case was filed with the Department of Justice but was dropped by Attorney General Eric Holder. The Assistant AG in charge of the investigation has now resigned in protest over the matter. Under the Bush administration Assistant AG's were fired for incompetence and that matter became a major media news headline for several months.
On Monday July 12th 2010, in Kansas City Missouri, the NAACP called for the public rebuttal to the Tea party movement claiming that the movement is a racially motivated organization portraying racist ideas... My response, name ONE! The media has been gunning for the organization since the Obama-care debates, if the Tea Party had tripped up and if just one member said something or did something that could easily be viewed as racist it would have plastered on every news source across the country, but that hasn't happened has it!? Nope... Yet the NAACP and it's institutional approach to racism has thrown a giant label on the grassroots movement in an attempt to disrupt and slow down the Tea Parties apparent power to elect conservatives. The attack on the Tea Party to me is a clear political move. The Tea Party makes the liberals in the NAACP very, very afraid...
The fact of this matter is; racism is immoral in any form.
"We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights."
There is not compensation for past transgressions when concerning civil rights. It is not justice to punish future generations for past generations mistakes, society must adjust the mistakes of the past to equality and progress forward. Justice should be the name of the game. Justice is a simply defined virtue; the quality of being just and fair. Every individual citizen of this country has a personal obligation to live their lives by this concept, plain and simple. Equal justice for all.
God Bless!

Chicago and guns, the breakdown
Here is the story.
http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/Daley-Vows-New-Gun-Ordinances-97328384.html
The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution states; A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
Those who follow the religion that is progressive liberalism have many fundamental deficiencies that drive them to their misguided and often ignorant conclusions, however a major inability to identify the root cause to any socio-political problem consistently leads progressive leadership to ridiculous policy choices like that of Chicago's gun ban.
Talking points.
After living in Chicago for two years I had a unique perspective from the inside. Working for a P.I. firm I was sent into some pretty nasty areas of the city and I will be honest, I was carrying. It is insane to go into the southland and not have some kind of personal defense plan. Like a line in the sand, the city is a warzone south of the loop. Gangs and drugs are the rule of law.
In the Summer of 2008 the city of Chicago's murder rate reached 125. The death toll in Iraq during the same period of time was 65. A story that was absolutely covered up by the Chicago media. The environment of anti guns is far easier to sell to the city that has a large minority population than it is to demonize the real enemy to the city which is a culture of gang violence fueled strongly by racial divisiveness. A divisive atmosphere not between whites and blacks, but more Blacks and Latinos. Google "MS13."
The Gun ban currently restricts all citizens from owning hand guns. So those law abiding members of society that have followed the rule of law throughout their lives and are currently under duress by evil people wielding guns cannot defend themselves. The citizen instead has to call the police who have an average response time of around 10 minutes leaving an opportunity for the bad guy to rob, murder and depart the area with time to spare before support arrives. The scenario is easy to read with very little compassion until you either know or experience first hand the helplessness and fear that a victim experiences. Think about it...
To continue down the list, the bad guys are overwhelmingly drug pushing gang members unidentifiable by most. The weapon of choice is obviously a gun. Like a carpenter needs a hammer, a drug pusher needs a gun. Guns are tools of the trade and this fact is indisputable and unpreventable. The removal of all guns is an impractical approach to the problem and does not solve the fundamental issue. Guns on the street are not subject to the laws of the government. There are no licensed firearm dealers who are required to register and back ground check every customer, there are no 3 day wait limits, there are no redundancies that prevent underage and illegal aliens from purchasing street weapons.
Preventing law abiding citizens the right to bear arms only impacts the law abiding citizen, not the criminal.
The comparison I can think of is London. The Brits banned guns and went through the city and forced their citizens to throw their weapons (even antiques) into giant wood chippers. Now they lead the world in violent knife assaults. Now, GOOGLE "knife wounds." Lovely isn't it...
The fix? Well, it won't be pretty or quick. The culture of violence currently in most major cities is the result of decades and generations of blaming an inanimate object for all of the woes of the world and not blaming the choices of the individual. So, if law abiding citizens could carry and thus defend themselves when assailed by those who wish to do evil the bad guys would soon realize that it isn't so easy to take from the innocent any longer...

- What is the primary problem in Chicago?
- How does it impact an individuals right to defense?
- Who is doing the shooting and how do they get their weapons?
- Is there a world comparison?
- What is the fix?

This is YOUR America now...
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/06/27/biden-calls-custard-shop-manager-smartass-taxes-comment/?test=latestnews
The Vice President of the United States is confronted about taxes in an ice cream shop. Joe Biden is put on the spot when all he wanted was a cute photo op and his response was, well, typical.
Joe Biden is the war dog of the Obama administration. When Obama wants something, he sends out the "Heavy" to shake em down. If it is a large Union like S.E.I.U. or a blundering oil company like BP, Joe Biden can siphon out the big bucks with a few threats.
Tell me, is this the America you thought you'd be living in when you sat in High school history class learning about the unique founding of this great nation? Was this the country that was the land of the free? With founders like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson who constantly displayed such principle and personal conviction to God and country, when did our culture and society degrade into such a shriveled image of its previous self?
Our leaders act like thugs. Our society turns its back on what made us great. What are you doing as an American Citizen to make it better?
Well if you can't think of anything perhaps start with educating yourself in politics and current events. Here is a website that makes all of this very easy, check it out right now!

THE END IS NEAR!
Years of preparation will not be in vain!
For so long I have been focused on the end of the world. Finding deals in the newspaper on ammo and constantly keeping up with the next big Kansas gun shows in KC and Topeka. Telling myself that every time I see a "deal" on a firearm that I won't be sorry when the zombie invasion happens. Well, thanks to our countries sickening love affair with our fearless Leader my preparations will not be in vain!
The President who is constantly in campaign mode and his legion of mindless drone followers have done more damage to the ideological foundation of this country in just over a year than any liberal in our short history.
Here are a few ideas that need to be published.
1. The saying "the truth hurts" exists for a reason. The word "Socialist" means something and the definition is being played out by the leader of the Free World. The media refuses to call a duck, a duck. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and walks like a duck its a damn duck people! Denying something is what it is only makes it harder to deal with.
2. Don't drink the kool aid there is poison in it you idiot! This Jamestown reference is focused at the people who blindly nod their heads at anything a politician says. Learn the specifics of a topic and learn how it will effect the entire picture not just whats surface deep. Passing a bill into law that costs a trillion+ dollars will not be some magical Utopian decision and will not be without repercussions. The affect goes farther than just your individual yearly health care costs. FYI- Watch the price of the US Dollar.
3. A sob story doesn't justify taking money from other people. Reliance on the Government is just that, taking from others. Tax payer dollars are not meant for your failure to prepare for the future. This is the United States if there is an emergency medical situation your lifelong responsible behavior can benefit you. Yet another reason to be responsible with your money and credit and to teach your kids to do the same. You are not entitled to anything, everything is earned and when you lose that mentality you lose your liberty.
4. Opportunity should be the primary purpose for politicians. Providing a free and open society that allows an individual the opportunities to be just that, an individual. Any law that makes you dependent makes you a slave. A state dependent slave is called a communist.
5. Know what your foundation is. Core principles aid you in your political education. What are you for? What are you against? Now learn everything about it. How does it effect you, your family and the future.
6. Utopia doesn't exist. Utopia doesn't exist. Utopia doesn't exist. Nothing is ever free! You must work for EVERYTHING you have. No exceptions. No politician is comeing to your rescue, and if they tell you otherwise they are lieing! It is as simple as that!
The current status of our nations future is in serious jeopardy. Your homework assignment is to learn the impact of the Countries credit rating possibly being downgraded due to the massive spending and debt being accumulated by this current Government. Here is a website that will give you links and a crash course on the situation.

Would you make it?
Russian Tsar Hydrogen Bomb Explosion - Watch more Funny Videos
So, a nuclear weapon has been unleashed in your general vicinity. Are you prepared?
If you are an average American, working 40 hrs a week, perhaps with a couple mouths to feed chances are slim that you are. I mean, come on, who would think about these kinds of things? If some said Glenn Beck, you'd be right!
Some things to consider in the case of potential Armageddon or even the occasional zombie infection.
* A lot can happen in 72 hours. Having a 3 day preparedness kit is at the very least a must! In this kit you should have at least 1.5 gallons of water per person. One MRE (meal ready to eat) contains upwards of 3000 calories. Having at least 3 on hand per person is a safe choice. Finally you can pick up a basic medical kit from the American Red Cross at a reasonable price (under $50). The kit would include basic pain medication, splints, gauz bandages, medical tape etc.
* Shelter- The variable here being the type of disaster. Sticking with a Nuclear or radiological approach the type of shelter becomes critical. Seeking any kind of shelter is the #1 Priority. If you are outside, standing next to a building is better than nothing. If you are in a house, the basement is better than upstairs. If you are in a basement and you have time to reinforce your area do so with sand bags and ceiling coverage. Gamma radiation is the killer so thicker the better.
* Clothing- When the first 72 hours have passed and food/water become a priority again you are going to have to scavenge. Remember, fallout is in everything and on everything so touch only what is necessary. By now the falling debris (fallout) has pretty much settled and is layering the surface. Avoidance is important but inhalation avoidance is critical. Cover your face as much as possible and wear gloves (kevlar if available). Consumption of any radiation exposed food will pose the risk of consuming the radiation. Knowing this seek food that was equally sheltered as you were. Using this as a gauge will minimize exposure. As for the outside water that is still in the hydrological cycle (rain, runoff and ground water) it is fully exposed and contaminated. Contact with this will undoubtedly over expose you to a high volume of rads, avoid this at all cost.
Getting out of the radiation zone as quickly as possible is always the top priority. However if that is an impossible task use your head and follow some simple guidelines. Being prepared, even for the improbable, is always worth at the least the peace of mind.
All additions to the above will be posted.
