The Poor Girl

We met a lovely family at our art museum. They are from out of town, but a nearby city, where they lack psychiatric services for young children. They had not come here to see and hear the sights and sounds of Music City but to seek treatment for their little daughter's mental issues. What a nightmare! To have a "day pass" to spring your own under ten year old kid from an asylum. Then, to have her wear a brand new Target dress because the clothes she wore in from out of state had a drawstring and were disposed of for her own safety. They want a well and normal functioning child, and I hope they achieve that with the treatment they have arranged for her or with the Lord's help or both and soon. 

A Great Education

Can you imagine there are children from Kentucky going into third grade who have not been taught Abe Lincoln was born in their home state? My daughter was not aware of where Lincoln was from but believes genders are limitless. Great job public education in the Bluegrass State, maybe she will learn all about the 1619 Project next. 

About Last Night

Yesterday was America's birthday. I saw inspiring fireworks with my eight year old daughter in person, then watched a patriotic fireworks display with music with her on television. The problem as I see it is that she still knows basically nothing about the Declaration of Independence or our nation's founding even as she is about to enter third grade. I do not think Louisville's public schools are serving her well. On the plus-side, she really does like the pageantry of Independence Day, even though she did not know we fought the British for our freedom. Happy birthday to America (and many more)!

Israel and France

Much of the world is condemning the Jewish State for actions of self-defense in Jenin. Even those not castigating Israel are demanding Israeli "restraint" or calling on both sides to "restrain themselves". I have not heard any nation denounce France in their effort to restore order. That is because there are many more Jew-haters around the world than people who are against France. There is no moral equivalence anywhere between the evil forces of terror and chaos and those authorities trying to restore order and protect the innocent citizenry. Anyone who compares the morality of the law breakers to the law enforcers putting down the anarchy is rooting for the devil. Innocent French life and Jewish lives are worth protecting and need not be scrutinized by degenerates who wish the world ripped apart. 

Is Anyone Watching?

Donald Trump had a rally in South Carolina. His backers claim seventy-five thousand folks showed up in the heat of summer to the event in Pickens. Little media coverage accompanied the event, and some reporters "downplayed" the audience, saying only fifty thousand showed up. In any case, it was one of the largest political gatherings ever in the early primary state. Does anyone think Joe Biden could draw that many supporters out in the state he has pushed for the first primary in the coming election cycle? No freaking way! Joe can't play the social distance game anymore either with a hundred seats placed twenty feet apart outside to protect his "supporters" from a pandemic that few worry about anymore. The only throng Joe could muster would be union activists bussed to a site and others paid to be there. Even as the dinosaur media ignores it, Americans know Biden has all the popularity of a skunk at the cotillion and nobody believes Joe actually won 81 million votes on the fair and square from real live American voters. The steal may be on again for 2024, but you have to realize America will not stand for it again.  

A Real Coup?

You will know if the effort at taking Moscow was real by the Wagner mercenaries if they soon end up dead, particularly their leader. If they are killed, it was a real effort to depose little Vlad. If not, it was all likely part of Putin's plans. 

The Armed Citizen

I am for the natural right of self-defense and the Constitutional right for those who are not criminals or insane to keep and bear arms. That being said, the are too many law enforcement officers in America, who do not see the armed citizens as a ally in protecting communities but as an enemy and a threat. There are a strain of prosecutors, largely supported by George Soros, who seek to criminalize any who would protect their families and themselves. Those who say they are on the side of law but who crack down on folks defending their neighbors are not making the United States safer but sewing chaos.
