Angela Merkel Comes Clean About Terrorism (Kind Of)

Terrorism is nothing new to Europe. The ancient Romans used terrorism against the Germanic peoples. The Germanic often answered in like kind. Today, however, virtually all of the terror attacks reported from the Old Continent involve Islamist agents (all of the mass attacks do). The rate of incidence of these attacks has skyrocketed in the past year, coinciding with the arrival of more than a million Muslim “refugees” from the Middle East.

The leaders of European nations have been rightly criticized for allowing this invasion and for not brutally crushing the terror-prone elements. Angela Merkel is the poster child for failed leadership.

Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Wednesday refugees had not brought terrorism to Germany, adding that Islam belonged in the country as long as it was practiced in a way that respected the constitution.

The invaders do not respect the German constitution nor anything else except for their opportunities. They are taking advantage of their ability to rape European women and kill “infidels” all the while collecting generous benefits from their victims.

Islam does not belong in Europe. Time and time again it has entered the Continent with disastrous consequences. Centuries have been spent repelling invasion and rebuilding from wars. It has no interest in the West and does not belong here. It’s hard to fathom that such a violent and backwards religious lifestyle belongs anywhere but it does have its place. There are backwards parts of the world. It must be removed back to them as fast as possible.

I take Merkel’s remarks as an admission. She is correct: though they carry out the separate attacks, the “refugees” did not usher in the terrorism at large. Merkel did. Hollande did. All of the elites who worship at the altar of diversity and altruistic humanism did. They are guilty. They should be punished.

 

Just Keep Hammering

This morning I woke on time and actually felt good, great maybe. I plugged away for about three hours and then it hit me – a sluggishness with an underlying sick feeling. I suspect it might be the coffee and the powdered doughnut I drank and ate conspiring with or against my summertime diet. I think they call it a sugar crash or something. Then there’s the threat that’s been brewing in the back of my mind for three days.

I’m going to keep going. A real breakfast and a trip to the gym (arms and shoulders today) will cure the tiredness. I specialize in dark threats; soon that brooding menace in my mind will be worrying about me.

Moving on is all you can do. With anything.

Nearly fifteen years ago I was in D.C. I was standing in a ballroom at the Mayflower talking to Steve Forbes. He had just given an inspirational address on the sorry state of our monetary policies. Then, as now and ever, those policies are ruinous. His inspiration came from how he approached the topic.

Even a connected and educated billionaire is a small thing when set against the monolithic evil of central banking. He was (and is) in the know, understanding more acutely than most what’s wrong and what it is doing to our country. He knows the windmills must be tilted though failure seems assured.

I asked him what we, any of us, could do to make a difference. He answer was amazingly simple, “Just keep hammering away.” He told me it wasn’t really about winning (though that would be nice); it’s about the fight, about doing what’s right no matter the outcome. Just because they’re evil and they keep winning doesn’t mean we retreat or concede – ever.

For old times sake, let me now wield that hammer: the Federal Reserve, its practices, its supporters, and beneficiaries are all pure evil. They are the bane of freedom. They need to be destroyed. There, I got that out of the way for the morning.

Now it’s time to cure my coffee hangover.

You? You just keep hammering away at whatever it is you’re facing today.

Idiotic Foreign Policy (If Any)

In Washington, whatever the policies may be, common sense and intelligence certainly are foreign. Foreign as in alien, absent, and completely unknown. The crowd clustered around The Hill is so stupid that they could only be modern Americans. True, the owners – the banks and corporations and special interests, sometimes behind the scenes – they have smarts. But they are marred by an evil as deep as D.C.’s vapidity.

The only real policy in the District is stealing and wasting money through a never-ending game of domination (of everything and everyone). The foreign part? Let’s just call in “international affairs” to differentiate it from the domestic thievery and oppression. Internationally, let’s start with “policy” towards Iran.

Washington has had it out for Iran since the 1950s. The reason originally given to the American people for this animosity has long since been forgotten. The real reason I already covered, the power and the money thing. Still, today, Iran is bad. Iran is our enemy. We would go to war with Iran except we’ve lately discovered we’re not all that good at the sport anymore (see Iraq, etc.). Iran is bad.

There’s ISIS. ISIS is bad (sometimes). It would seem to the sensible that a terrorist organization that destroys nightclubs, beheads priests, and runs people down with delivery trucks would be bad full-time. The problem is that Washington created ISIS, intentionally as a CIA toy or accidentally in a drunken stupor. They made them, trained, them, armed them, funded them and then kicked them in the head to get the jihadis really angry. They’ve alternated between these things off and on for a good, long time now. Meanwhile, Washington and its inbreed allies in Europe have willfully imported the terrorists into the West. Insane! The cycle of lunacy goes on apace but, officially, the liars of Columbia will say ISIS is our enemy. ISIS is bad.

Then there’s Russia. Russia is descended from another big, criminally talented, power and money nation, the U.S.S.R. I recall as a child hearing we had a of problems with them and had had such for a while. Then, suddenly – “POOF!” – they were gone. All was quiet for a while and then along came the modern, civilized nation of Russia. Political BS aside, if nations were individual people, America and Russia would look like twins. The sensible (where’d he go??) might think our two countries would be cooperating at everything, being the best of friends. No.

Washington has again decreed that Russia is an evil empire. Russia hates us. Russia is our enemy. Some of the very lowest and dumbest dregs around D.C. actually want a war with Russia. We could not win that one. Neither could Russia. Not an all-out war. We’d all be dead. The Americans and Soviets of old knew this. Thus the grudging but relatively peaceful cold war. Putin and company still appear to have some sense. Washington has lost it all. Russia is bad.

So: Iran bad; ISIS bad; Russia bad. Today, wouldn’t you know it, news comes that Russia is bombing the living hell out of ISIS in Syria. They’re flying heavy bombers out of … wait for it … Iran.

One might call this irony but, really, words cannot describe it. The closet we can get is, “Washington is our enemy” or “Washington is bad”.

In The Dark

The vanishing night sky. According to the New York Times 80% of Americans cannot see the Milky Way due to light pollution from cities. The Times Story centers on the interesting efforts of two small Colorado towns to save what’s left of their evening star field.

So for more than a decade, the two towns and a local dark-sky nonprofit have been dialing down the dimmer switch. They have replaced streetlights and passed rules requiring that outdoor lights point down. The group built a small observatory with star guides who tee up its telescope and take people on a tour of the night. They coax homeowners to hood their porch lamps or dim a bright light outside their house.

“People out of ignorance go with whatever’s cheap or whatever’s brightest,” said Ed Stewart, a board member of the local dark-sky group. “You multiply that by 200, 300, and there goes the sky.”

Man has two needs for nighttime lights: one being of necessity (we’re busy these days), the other of primal fear of the dark. I understand the need to see in order to do things after hours though I have never shared the fear. I like the night. I like the stars in the sky.

I like in between two of those places where one can’t really see anything of the stars. One or two (or two hundred) may be visible through the haze of city lights. Clearer, cooler, less humid weather helps. But even when one things the view is pretty good, it isn’t.

I grew up just outside of a small town. Then I could see many more stars than now though the glow of the town consumed half the western view. It’s like that now except the glow is all around with a few stars peeking out here and there. That’s most people’s experience.

I’ve had the luxury of being in the middle of nowhere, either the sea or way out west – not far from those Colorado towns. Out there, miles from development, one can see everything. The view is so clear one can even make out satellites as they pass around the Earth. It’s amazing.

I was far away nearly twenty years ago and I remember stopping my car to look at the stars. I saw the Hale-Bopp comet pass overhead. The next morning I read about the Heaven’s Gate nuts in California. Their’s was a different experience; they vanished like the sky.

Still, this modern problem has some pretty easy fixes. One need not move from the city (though that might not be a bad idea) for a clear view. Those small towns are on to something. Lights can be adjusted and we don’t really need that many of them. No fear. Nothing really goes bump in the dark other than the satellites and shooting stars. The stars actually provide a pale light, usually enough to see by. The moon adds to it. It’s not so bad, or so dark, in the dark.

Best (Worst?) of the Web: Some News

I cultivated several stories I wanted to cover today. Rather than make a post out of each I have decided to combine them here. They’re all interesting if a little disquieting. Enjoy:

“He white – beat his head – bitch!”

An actual quote from a riote … er … urban social enthusiast in Milwaukee this weekend. The vibrants were out in force, having a good, innocent time. Much of the action was caught on camera.

The clip shows angry rioters chanting “black power!” before asking “is they white?” as cars slowly drive past.

“Yeah they white!” states someone else, prompting the mob to run towards the vehicle.

“Yeah they white, get their ass!” screams another.

“Hey they beatin’ up every white person!” exclaims another rioter.

“He white – beat his head – bitch!” he adds.

The footage appears to show the mob attacking cars and trying to drag out the drivers.

The SJWs in the room would remind you that this is not racism. It is and it really won’t end well. “He white! Get that muth … [expletive!] … He got a gun!” And guns are the answer to this blight on civilization. Think you can or should call the cops to save you? Think again…

Innocent Georgia Family, Victimized by Police, Still Hanging in the Breeze.

Last year I told you about the McKinley family of metro Atlanta. They were at home minding their own business when the cops broke in (mistakenly). Mr. McKinely was shot in the leg, his dog was killed, and his family traumatized. The idiot cops also managed to shoot each other.

A year later the family still hasn’t gotten any answers although police did give them some of the blame. This incredible insult to injury followed with even more official incompetence and corruption. The family is planning to sue. They should seek an injunction effectively disbanding the police department.

As if our domestic thugs and trigger-happy, moron police aren’t enough…

“Refugees” are Smashing Cars Just for Fun.

In Calais, France migrant savages are having a fun time smashing stopped cars on the local roads. The situation in Europe is completely out of control.

A number of people have left comments of support, and expressing anger at the situation in Calais. Nathalie Brioit said it is “a shame they have all the rights,” while Marine Gabrielle confessed “I no longer use the highway as I’m so scared.”

The damage comes just weeks after lorry drivers using the route warned yet again that it is only a matter of time before someone is killed by a migrant. In early August a driver was threatened by a migrant wielding a chainsaw during a night of violence which also saw lorries burned out.

…

“You’re leaving work and then you’re attacked by migrant shits just for fun – it disgusts me!” commented Maëva Mayla, in a post which has been shared by more than 6,000 people.

I’m proud of Mayla for correctly calling them what they are: migrant shits. That’s a good start; identify the problem. Then comes solving it. I do not as of yet know who let the dogs out. But I do know who let the shits in. They have names like Merkle, Cameron and Hollande. When the savages are repatriated, these louts need to go with them. That, or to the gallows.

f194ce23ac5c66899b2f0530c8eea4ba

“Refugees” having fun on the roads. Pinterest.

By the way, by computer, tablet, or phone, you’re reading this sentence by way of the internet.

Donald Trump Wants to Ban the Internet.

A friend reminded me that the Donald made that remark last December in a speech about extremism (on the internet, not his in wanting to ban the internet). I actually checked with Snopes and it checks out partly true. He’s not calling for a total ban. Instead he wants Bill Gates to tell him which sites need to be shut down. I’m not sure how this would work but, knowing the government, due process would not be included.

If they’re after extremists, go after the extremists. They’re easy to find (see the above stories). Leave me and my website alone. Less freedom is never the answer – with the web or with money…

Goodbye Cash.

Retail stores in Sweden have stopped taking cash and some think America needs to follow. Funny, Sweden bans cash but welcomes violent rapists and Mohammadens. Interesting.

Cash isn’t in any danger of disappearing, but maybe it should: The U.S. has much to gain by phasing out cash, according to researchers from Tufts University. Writing in the Harvard Business Review, they noted that the U.S. spends $200 billion each year to keep cash in circulation. (China also has high costs related to reliance on cash, they noted.)

Wouldn’t it be easier for the Tufts researchers to move to Sweden? They’re probably not violent and backwards enough but they could give it a try.

The problem here is the total and complete control the elites in government and banking want over your money. If there’s no way for you to physically hold it, it isn’t really yours. One button press and they could have it all. That, and they will know each and every purchase you make. I know, I know. If you’re not doing anything wrong, you have nothing to worry about. Just like that Atlanta family.

I’m Perrin Lovett, and that’s news to me.

Satanic Invocations Over America: Sign of the Times

15 Monday Aug 2016

MRCTV had an interesting, if disturbing, article last week about a city council meeting in Alaska. Like most such affairs in America it was kicked off with a religious invocation. The invocation was unusual in that it was given by some Alaskan satanists.

Let us stand now, unbowed and unfettered by arcane doctrines, born of fearful minds in darkened times. Let us embrace the Luciferian impulse to eat of the tree of knowledge and dissipate our blissful and comforting delusions of old. Let us demand that individuals be judged for their concrete actions, not their fealty to arbitrary social norms and illusory categorizations.

Let us reason our solutions with agnosticism in all things, holding fast only to that which is demonstrably true. Let us stand firm against any and all arbitrary authority that threatens the personal sovereignty of all or one.

That which will not bend must break and that which can be destroyed by truth should never be spared its demise. It is done. Hail Satan.

“It is done. Hail Satan.” This is not your grandfather’s country anymore. Such words of “blessing” at a public gathering are unusual but are part of a growing trend. I recently watched a video of a similar spectacle in Pensacola, Florida.

satanism

What. The. Hell? MRCTV.org.

America is, or was, a Christian nation. Naturally, Christian priests and pastors were called on to lead prayers before official meetings. Now, however, in post-American times, cities are caving to the forces of darkness out of fear of lawsuits. The courts and the lawyer class have twisted the First Amendment into a weapon against public morality. I fail to see how having Christian prayers somehow constitutes either the establishment of one religion or the banning of others. To me, it merely reflects respect for the majority sentiment and homage to the wisdom which founded the country. No longer.

In years past the debate sometimes centered on a Catholic invocation versus Protestant. This was not a matter of apples and oranges, but of different types of apples. Christian versus satanic messages isn’t apples and oranges either; it is apples and horseshit.The Alaskan and Floridian satanic messages were less about the devil and more about smart aleck atheism – sly jabs at the Christian faith and believers (which, of course, is the Devil’s work).

The lawyers’ work is done. The courts have ruled. The politicians have caved. Still, it isn’t entirely the government’s fault. Some blame lies with the Christian churches in America, Catholic and Protestant. Pat Buchanan dedicated two, back-to-back chapters in one of his books to this phenomenon. The Catholic Church (Latin [Roman] especially) has done a pitiful job of promoting and defending itself, instead dedicating it’s time to cover-ups and institutionalism for institutionalism’s sake.

The Protestant churches, born of arbitrary changes, have kept on arbitrarily changing to fit the times. Whereas Catholicism has been perceived as not changing enough or not changing at all, the descendants of Calvin and Wesley have changed too much. Some of these have completely ceased to even resemble churches.

I spend a lot of my time on road trips. Often, with nothing to do but drive, I tune in to local Christian stations. I particularly pay attention to broadcasts from older, senior pastors. Most of these are Protestant, frequently Baptist. I’m Catholic but I do love the apples to apples bluntness in the messages. Recently I listened to an independent Baptist preacher in Jacksonville. He decried the rise of “cotton candy” theology and he nailed it as a problem. I paraphrase: The typical “Christian” worship experience at the new, nondenominational mega-“churches” consists of 45 minutes of rock music followed by a 10-15 minute, feel-good sermonette about nothing. He said of this false gospel nonsense: “It tastes good but it isn’t very filling.” He’s right. The majority of our churches have dropped the ball.

The people themselves have done worse. To them goes the lion’s share of responsibility. In a way it is fitting that agents of Lucifer preside over American government gatherings. Most government at any given time and all of them, given enough time, will cross over from being mildly intrusive to completely evil. As that process unfolds today, legions of Americans gleefully anticipate and revere the doings of the state. Many (a huge number, maybe approaching a marjoity) now, in some form or fashion, literally worship the state itself. Government power is now a religion, possibly the largest in the United States. God has nothing to do with it. People may deny this though theirs constant genuflection to the civic altar rather gives them away.

“It is done.” Perhaps it is so. But there is a chance it may still be undone. Praise Jesus!

Walking in America

This morning I was nostalgic about something. Couldn’t quite put my finger on it. In an effort to clear and search my mind I went out a few places and, before heading home, took a stroll in the park. I enjoyed myself but it didn’t help my thinking. Honestly, it added more questions and a slight sense of revulsion. After tour among the people I have a few questions for Americans. Most of these are not for my readership in general but rather the population at large.

  1. Why my park? Why Sunday afternoon?
  2. Do you ever tire of being so fat?
  3. There are about 60,000 diet books and plans out there. Ever thought of trying one?
  4. If you had to (to save your life) run a mile right now, could you?
  5. When was the last time you picked up something heavier than a 12 oz. can?
  6. Have you ever read a book, cover to cover?
  7. Why the sulking look on your faces?
  8. Why the shifty looks? Why be scared?
  9. Why the angry looks? I’m not scared.
  10. Did you put any thought at all into that outfit?
  11. Do you own any closed-toe shoes?
  12. Ever heard of a thing called a belt? They make ’em in fat sizes.
  13. People born ugly can’t help it. Others have to work at it. Why the effort?
  14. Why are you so loud?
  15. How many tattoos are enough?
  16. Do you really think the rest of us are supposed to take responsibility for your kids?
  17. Where’s the baby daddy? Even know who he is?
  18. You do know living dirty will kill you prematurely, right?
  19. You’re not even having fun with it, are you?
  20. Your appearance is your business. Yet, why trash up the community?
  21. You seem to like getting in the way, especially in a careless way, even to the point of “accidental” contact. How do you feel about being shoved to the ground?
  22. Your driving is terrible. Do you care at all about others on the road?
  23. Exactly to what extent do you feel entitled? And to what? From whom?
  24. Is everyone you know really named “Dude”?
  25. Would a day without television kill you?
  26. You know TV is 99.8% BS, don’t you?
  27. You seem to like watching sports. Given your personal condition, would you say this amounts to voyeurism?
  28. If you ever discover the Pokemon isn’t real, would you then consider actual reality?
  29. How’s the cotton candy at your “church”? I hear they have a cool rock band.
  30. Name one thing you’ve gotten out of your allegiance to the political state?
  31. Do you realize you’ve been betrayed?
  32. Do you understand you’re the reason it happened to you?
  33. The very system that encourages you to dress, eat, look, and live like that hates you. They consider you an unclean beast of burden. You know that, right?
  34. Do you enjoy your slavery? I’m happy for you either way.
  35. If any of my questions made you uneasy, would you consider coming back to the real world?

Just asking.

Maybe what I was thinking about was the America of my youth. Or, maybe it was some dream ideal. Something I’m looking forward too, perhaps. Those questions I shall ponder.

Hate Crimes and Justice: Big Apple Bites

CBS New York reports that an Imam and his friend were gunned down yesterday upon leaving a Queens Mosque. Details are few, yet the NYPD says they have surveillance video of the shooter. It will be interesting to find out his identity and motives. I have a theory that THEY will probably try to make this story die quietly just like the Central Park bombing this summer and the Viernheim  shooting (still nothing).

A disgruntled member of the mosque, or a rival ideologue, or a common street thug would not help the narrative. If (good chance) this Imam and/or mosque comes back with ties to ISIS or some other group, that will be hushed up too.

As is, the same Mohammedans who are notoriously silent whenever one of theirs slaughters a Priest at Mass, or shoots up a nightclub, or runs people down by the truckload, etc., etc., are now (immediately) screaming about a hate crime. They say they don’t feel safe now. They gather in the street to demand justice. I have an easy solution to calm their fears: Get. Out.

Hate crimes. Safety. Justice. Tell US about it.

The Pied Pollster

Maybe it’s the coffee or the heat. This morning, at the computer, I am strangely nostalgic. About what I’m not sure. This, I’ll let that go until I figure it out.

There are many things I could write about, things that don’t involve me being stuck in 1982. Many are boring. It’s Sunday and I don’t feel like being bored.

Thus, I have decided to re-post a popular piece from last year, this one you’re about to read (maybe again, maybe for the first time). The Pied Pollster is a poem about a town overrun with political rodents. This is, after all, election season. Enjoy.

perrinlovett's avatarPERRIN LOVETT

Once upon a time … that’s how children’s stories begin. This is a children’s story for adults. Adults and children – anybody with a pulse really. Enjoy.

Once upon a time …

An anachronistic time;

Yet five hundred years ago;

“Anachronistic” means mixed up;

My words do surely show; …

There was a happy little town;

The people there were healthy and cheerful;

Their rosy faces round.

No troubles had the folks;

Beyond a trifling few;

The grass was always green;

The sky was always blue.

Unto this joyous hamlet;

A plague did come one day;

The people’s hearts were troubled;

There was a frightful fray.

Their bodies began a squirmin’;

Due to the awful vermin;

Worse than rabid rats, much worse;

There came the Battle sound;

Filthy politicians! had found the happy town!

Some were Republicrats;

Demopublicans there were too;

Some said the town was red;

Others claimed it…

2:20 To Salez: Swiss Train Terror

A new twist today on a Swiss passenger train. Previously they have used knives in their attacks (and guns and bombs, etc.); now the jihadis (who else would it be?) are using blades and fire. It’s unclear right now if the attacker set a fire in general or if he doused victims and then set them on fire. Could be both. He then set to work with his knife. Six men, women and children are injured. The attacker was also injured and hospitalized; hopefully the terrorist might be soon deceased.

This will not go over well in Switzerland. They like to be left alone. They are heavily armed and have a long history of throwing off oppression.

In addition to highlighting a new method of attack, brilliant if one thinks about it, this episode might serve as a warning to people like the French. These are the savages your government wants you to house in your homes. I hear they also want their people to house tigers, nitric acid, and unstable explosives too.

Please wake up.
