And So It Starts and Saving America and Mail In Ballots

 Yesterday Joe Biden announced his running mate as  Kamala Harris(D-Calif.). Representatives from India and Jamaica have expressed their delight that an American descendant of both those countries could possibly be a heart beat away from the presidency.  Her mother is deceased and her father Professor Emeritus professor Donald Harris has not thus far commented.    I find that curious and  I wait to read or hear his response to her candidacy. One thing is perfectly clear.  If Joe Biden is elected she WILL be President.  My guess is that he won't last  the first year.  He cannot voice a consistent thought without it being written down. He gets sidetracked easily and can't remember where he was.  On face book a meme asked "has someone told Joe  his running mate is Kamala?  On that thought, don't look at Joe for policy.  He barely can remember his own name.  Policy will be formed by Kamala and her ilk. The Green New Deal, medicare for all,  expanded funding for abortion with late date abortions allowed, increased taxes, encouragement for illegal immigration with guaranteeing health care and government benefits are just a few "goodies" we can expect and those that work will pay.  On abortion the only democratic candidate that qualified her abortion stance was Tulsi Gabbard who stated that abortion should be safe, legal, and rare" She also stated that she would prohibit abortion during the last three months of pregnancy.   Not a SINGLE other candidate including Biden agreed with her stance. This is telling because while he hasn't said it is okay  for late term abortions or partial birth abortions  he has not come out against the idea  leaving  the door open.     The progressives  are treating abortion as something that is good for society Biden himself  a Catholic has been denied communion at several churches because of his stance.  

Under Trump (until Covid) we have enjoyed unprecedented growth and development in  the country.  Businesses have returned to our country and are now American Made.  We have gotten out of disastrous trade agreements and have entered into newer and better ones.  Black unemployment reached an all time low of 5.4 percent.  New businesses started unencumbered by the red tape from years before. This will all revert back if Biden is elected.  

There is a huge stand for mail in ballots. Mail in ballots are gifts to those who want to commit fraud  quite frankly in both parties.  Mail in ballots can be stolen, forged and "lost ".  We cannot go to a totally mail in election because the rolls are often out of date and are mailed to dead people.  Personally despite multiple attempts at getting Stan's name off the voting rolls he is still there.  If we had unchecked mailed out ballots then Stan would get one.  He would vote for Trump he hated Biden. Ballots meant for someone else could be illegally taken and a vote turned in.  Liberals are behind this process 100%  and are using the Corona virus as ammunition. Our schools are opening, we are social distancing, and I think everyone carries hand sanitizer.  There is no reason we cannot go to the polls and vote except that there is a real concern on the Democratic side that Biden will lose.  

I also predict that if Biden wins.  Shut downs will be  completely over.  Just a thought

I have made every election since COVID19 and it has been done well.  I WILL vote for Trump at the polls.  

The True National Emergency has Nothing To Do With Race

 When I lived in Texas I worked for Humana Hospital as their Emergency Department Manager.  I loved my job and the support I received from the hospital for my child abuse/molestation education project.  I gave lectures to children and adults about identifying child abuse/molestation victims and how we can protect our greatest resource, our children.   I stopped lecturing when I moved to Louisiana but the subject was never far from my mind.  

We are taken over by the news of all the rioting in the country.  We are being led like sheep by the left leaning media and the true emergency is being buried.  Quoted from the site of National Center for Missing and Exploited Children  in the last 36 years they have received more than 5 MILLION calls  for missing children. They state that of the nearly 26,300 runaways reported to NCMEC in 2019 that 1 in 6 were likely victims of child sex trafficking.  That's approximately 4,383 children that are being trafficked last year alone. World wide the numbers a staggering.  Of the few countries that report here are the numbers provided by globalmissingkids.org  Yearly this numbers are listed by country that report 

• Australia 20,000
• Canada    45,288
• Germany  100,000
• India         96,000
• Jamaica     1984
• Russia       45,000
• Spain         20,000
• United Kingdom   112,853
• United States  460,000   

That's an estimated total of 901,125 children that vanish. It is estimated that human trafficking is a 150 billion dollar a year business with a billion of that from sexual exploitation.  dosomething.org reports indicate that a "large number of child sex trafficking survivors in the US were at one time in the foster system.  They also stated that the National Human Trafficking Hotline( 1-888-373-7888) received more calls from California than any other state in the US followed by Texas and Florida.  Who reading this realized the extent of these numbers?  I wonder if  you care?

We are all aware of who Jeffery Epstein was.  He was a pedophile  who was convicted in 2008 for solicitation of an underage girl.  He only served 13 months.  He owned a private island in the Virgin Islands from 1998 to 2019.  Locally the island was known as  the Island of Sin and Pedophile Island. Bill Clinton was a frequent visitor as well as Andrew, Duke of York.  Les Wexner the Victoria Secret Founder, was a frequent visitor.     Jeffery had a mansion in New York that hosted many of the rich and famous including Clinton, the Duke, and the Saudi crown prince Mohammed bin Salman. After his conviction Bill Gates met with him several times to obtain money for Global Health. Jeffery had a private plane dubbed the Loita Express.  Clinton was on it thru 26 trips.  Clinton, Kevin Spacey, and Chris Tucker went on the plane to visit Africa touring HIV/AIDS project sites in 2002. You will recall that Spacey was accused of making unwanted advances to underage boys.   Jeffery Epstein made a statement to James B. Stewart from the NYT  that he knew "an astonishing number of rich, famous and powerful people and had the photos to prove it. He claimed to know embarrassing information about their sexual proclivities and.. drug use"  .  His past caught up with him and his final arrest was  July 6, 2019.  He "committed suicide" August 10, 2019 while in jail.  Anyone who believes that he killed himself is delusional.  He knew too much and was likely to plea bargain with his little black book.  His "girlfriend" Ghislaine Maxwell has recently been arrested  for recruiting and training girls for her boyfriend and his powerful friends.  The whole thing reads like a horror story.  People KNEW what was happening to all those girls.  I hope they lay awake at night with the knowledge that they could have done something.  I will be curious to see if Ghislaine makes it to court because she knows where the proverbial skeletons are buried. .  

You all remember Harvey Weinstein?  He was convicted of rape, found guilty and likely will die in prison.  Over   eighty woman came out against him.  Many Hollywood elites came forward.  Fame is a powerful aphrodisiac.  These woman permitted his advances because of his power in the film industry.  Since then many actors have been accused of inappropriate sexual advances.  Women were up in arms #MeToo was viral. Parents of child actors delivered up their children like Thanksgiving turkeys to these corrupt agents and film makers.  Those children were out of their league and many have come out as adults to expose what happened to them.  They didn't disappear their faces were too well known.  I still cannot listen to anything by Michael Jackson. That people find it "normal" that he had young boys visit with him and sleep in his bed is abhorrent.  They got to play with all of his toys and got great presents.  What kind of a mother thinks that is okay? Sorry/not sorry that he is dead.  I pray for his victims.  

 But what about the average children , our children and grandchildren, those without desire for fame.  What about the ones who because of their age and sex are sought after by certain men and women who feel that sex with children is normal and desired. There are groups that want to make sex with children legal.  The North American Man Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) works to abolish  age of consent laws. They are still active today.  

A billion dollars a year make child sex trafficking worth the risk to many.  What is being done? The internet is like a gold mine for child sex traffickers.  The need to police what are children are looking at and taking part in is critical.  The internet provides a worldwide marketing  channel for the sale of not only children, but child pornography.  

We need to train our babies how to be safe, we need to prosecute with life time penalties for human traffickers' and stop any public support to those that want the age of consent lowered.  We need strict ENFORCED laws against the internet being used for the purpose of selling children. Finally any convicted pedophile should face the death penalty.  After all they have murdered the innocence of our children for a sexual need they say is normal.

Above all we need ALL parents to say enough is enough and raise our voices because  our children can't.

Parents and grandparents can no longer ignore what is happening and talk to our children. They need to educate themselves to identify the signs of abuse.  They may not be able to prevent the  first attack but they can the second. Parents need to have total control and oversight over their children's internet use despite trusting their kids.  This is a war.  

The Spring and Summer of 2020 and I want a do over. I am who I am so get over it

I have been struggling to write for the past few months.  There is so much going on in our personal lives and in the country that it is mind boggling to even begin to sit down and compose coherent sentences.  Every day brings something new that has me shaking my head at the idiocy of our fellow Americans and leaves me wondering when it will stop.  When will the FEW stop being able to dictate to the majority. 

We are still semi quarantined due to CV19.  Masks are good, masks are bad.  Groups are bad UNLESS you are taking part in a demonstration.  Proms were called off, graduations changed, and church participation had to be limited.  Our families were buried without gathering, weddings were changed or called off because of state ordered limits to attendance.  We couldn't get our hair done, our mani-pedi appointments had to be cancelled until the last month and our eyelash extensions had to be delayed.  I realize the last examples are strictly vanity items but I am telling you  women were so pissed off that they were getting boot leg beauty treatments.  Our states were closing down businesses that they deemed as non essential and causing devastating losses.   Some may never recover. 

 It is difficult not to believe that especially in the democratically controlled states that this is designed to  keep the job loss at a maximum especially before this very important presidential election. The Russia Collusion effort failed and has proven to be a manufactured event to unseat our President, the impeachment trial was a bust as well, then Covid 19, a real manufactured virus from China hit our shores mid January.  The White House put up travel restrictions the end of the month for those from China unless Americans and then they had to quarantine. Around the same time Nancy Pelosi, (D-Ca) was encouraging people to attend the Chinese New Year Celebrations. The mayor of New Orleans made the statement that if told to do so she would have canceled Mardi Gras on Feb 25.  Easy to say in hindsight and I would bet good money that had Trump called her and told her to cancel the events and parades Mayor Cantrell would have told him to kiss her butt. Mardi Gras brings in around 1 BILLION dollars.  The first CV19 illness took place 2 weeks after that.  Unless she lives under a rock and never watches the news there is no reason that she could not have reasoned out that there is a virus out there in the world that has come to the United States late January and that having over a million people descend on her town from all over the world wasn't a good idea.  She didn't want to take the heat for the economic liability and wanted someone to blame.

Corona is here to stay.  I have lost friends to the virus.  I know its real and deadly but I also know that we have to go back to work and save our economy.  We have to use common sense and protection but we need to work.  They promise a vaccine  on the horizon but I for one will not take it.  At least for  a year or so.  I want to see the long range outcomes. Like the flu vaccine it will not prevent it but will lesson the course.   The President came out touting hydroxychloroquine as a treatment.  He was shot down faster than a mallard during duck season.  It is not a cure but in many cases elevates the symptoms combined with a cocktail of  Zithromax, Vit C, D and Zinc.  The 'experts' came out of the woodwork poopooing all the claims.  As Leonard Ravenhill wrote "A man with an experience (of God) is never at the mercy of a man with an argument. I know many doctors (thank God) that state that it works and are giving it to their clients with consistently positive results. I have read multiple papers that discuss the positive outcome for Corona viruses and SARS using hydroxychloroquine.   Thank you President Trump for bringing our attention to this medication it IS saving lives.  Different states are in different levels of 'opening up' Schools are slowly reopening with modifications. Is there going to be an increase of the virus? Yes but they still need to go back.  Children need interaction with their peers.  And after months of homeschooling believe me they need their teachers.  

May 25 George Floyd  was killed during an arrest in Minneapolis.  There is no one white or black that wasn't horrified  by the circumstances. Yes he was a criminal under the influence BUT he did not deserve to die.   It touched off violent protests in major cities that have caused millions and millions in property damage and loss of businesses.  BLM and ANTIFA were out in force and looting was at an all high.  I saw a meme that summed it up. It showed people carrying out TVs and Shoes from a store all the while with smiles on their faces.... the meme said nothing expresses grief like a large screen TV and Nikes. I know that some protests were peaceful but they were hijacked by criminals.  The message was lost while the nation watched in horror at the destruction that continues today.  I personally want it stopped by ANY means.  Looters, any color or nationality, should be shot on sight. That would put an end to wanton destruction.  Portland is still having riots and property destruction.  In Seattle the beginning the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone was founded by a loosely organized group of protestors with the main vision of defunding and removing the police.  It was to be a police free  utopia that was shut down because of violence.  In less than a month they had 2 gun related homicides and several more additional shooting.  All across the country are calls for defunding the police.  I am stocking up on guns and ammo.  Just in case. Just for the record I support our men in BLUE. 

The posts on Face Book encourage me to believe that I am racist because I believe that all lives matter. I do not value a black life over a white, brown or yellow life,  I was taught by example by my mother that color of skin is not how you judge a person. You judge them by what is inside of their hearts and their outward actions .In a later post I will write about my 7th birthday and the lesson in race that my mom taught me.    I owe NO  financial  reparations  for something that happened to no one that is currently alive.  Further more I had no one in my family that owned slaves. I understand the concept of white privilege, I really do. In elementary school we read the book "Black Like Me" by John Howard Griffin. It opened my eyes to the South but I lived in the North and apparently was clueless.   I grew up poor in Columbus.  We had enough food and a roof over our heads.  Some of my black friends in high school were better off but I never was envious.....that is just how it was.  I lost an advancement at Ohio State to a friend of mine.  Our grade points were equal but he was black. He told me that was the reason.   I really think that was the first time I realized that we were being judged by the color of our skin and it honestly bothered me, not because I thought I was better but that 'someone' chose him because of his skin color . Now I realize some of the difficulties he must have faced because of his skin color.   I however, took my licks and changed my focus.  We were still friends and I honestly was glad for him.  Moving on to today we have tee-shirts, hats, and posters that proclaim Black Lives Matter.   The movement started in 2013 after the death of Trevon Martin. It was basically a decentralized organization that has gained ground in recent years.  Currently 100 million has been pledged to the group in addition to the 33 Million in grants from George Soros.  Many are now questioning what is being done with the money to help the black community.  There have been no definite answers.  One of the co founders Patrisse Cullors is a Marxist who mentored under Eric Mann(SDS & Weather  Underground  domestic  terror organization).  In a video she proclaims that she and other co founder Alicia Garza are trained Marxists.   I have no illusions about this organization at all and will not give a dime of my money for their support.  What is hysterical is that Planned Parenthood is verbally s supporting BLM.  Its about time that they supported and got behind the black population considering the  Planned parenthood founder Margaret Sanger's belief that they needed to control the black population.  It was founded to kill those in society deem unfit to live not just blacks.  

Moving on to ANTIFA( short for antifascist)who often use violence to get their point across. When ever they attend a protest, violence will happen.  Allegedly they are against the far right ideology and frequently quote what happened in Germany during Hitler's time as something they need to prevent..... by using the same tactics and violence that Hitler's followers did.  Doesn't make sense to me.  They are ideologically against and have physically  come out against conservative speakers thus preventing free speech.  Sounds like fascism  to me.  Cancel culture refers to "the popular practice of withdrawing support for {canceling} public figures and companies after they have done or said something considered objectionable or offensive", Who makes that decision? Who has the right to choose what I want to hear or believe and cancel out those things  they deem inappropriate... who is the 'whoever' that wants to make those decisions for me. If you don't go along you are labeled a racist, homophobe, xenophobe, sexist and misogynist to name a few of the tags.  Man, no one wants to be called one of those names.... people look at you funny.  It doesn't matter if it's not true, the act of calling a person that leaves a stain.  I am frankly so very glad that I have reached an age that I don't give a shit.  The people that know me know what I believe and stand for in my life. But this tactic cows even the strongest persons.  I have watched it time and time again.   The few control the majority by violence in action and in speech  During this summer of violence  we have seen statues toppled buildings defaced and police murdered.  I remember one time I told one of my relatives that Obama was starting a war on police. I was told that there was no war on police.  I was right and that is one discussion I wish I hadn't won.

Any person in history that had ANYTHING to do with slaves is condemned.   Names of buildings, schools and memorials have been  vandalized  with some notable exceptions.  New York is still New York and that city's namesake was a prolific slave trader, Yale is still Yale even though its namesake was a slave trader.  Harvard, Princeton \, Columbia, Yale and the University of Virginia were built on the backs of slaves.  Slaves served faculty and students and yet they still stand.     You cannot change or erase history to do so brings great peril.  It is what it was.  Because of the lessons learned throughout the  years we have struggled to become better people.  George Santayana said "Those that cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it"

The most common complaint I have heard during the shut down and quarantine is the inequality.  10,000 people attended George Floyd's funeral visitation that was open for six hours.  Everywhere else you could only gather in groups of 10 or less.. Mayor Lightfoot of Chicago closed down salons but got her hair done " because she is the face of the city ".  I really could be unkind here but I will resist.    It's okay to protest and riot but not go to church. I  could go on and on. People are pissed because of the mask  its "for our own good" but not everyone has to wear one.     The mask is here to stay at least for a long long while. It does have advantages like I can crinkle up my eyes like I am smiling but still stick my tongue out.  Juvenile right??  It still hasn't stopped me from practicing in front of a mirror.

I haven't even touched on the liberal socialization of our wonderful country but that is for another day.  I probably have offended many people by this post, tough.  Get a thicker skin.
