welcome to the rant 25

well, here we are again.. today let's yap a little about donny "the douche" trump. now I haven't done much on this subject, but the asshole has gone so far over the line I just . have ta rant on it. in a move taken by the man whose fate he shall soon share tricky dicky nixon. he abandons the kurdish forces who have been absolutely crucial in our fighting in the syria,/  Iraqi fighting over the last 15 + years. nixon did the same thing to the 'yards in the nam in 74. bagged ass an left then to be killed/ enslaved by the same people they helped US to fight. nixon did it as a deal,  ta get our of a hated war that was unwinnable unless we were willing to go into the north... not..the douche is doing it cause he's just an idiot. or maybe he thinks he can cut a deal to make himself some cash. whatever the reason, he has undermined all we gained in trust from these people. not just the kurds, but iraqi's,syrians,afganies. if we're willing to throw away these brave individuals, just cause their neighbors don't like them. and are willing to INVADE another country we said we would protect, that has cost our own troops lives to win and secure. what message does that send to ALL of our allies. oh dont worry, all those IsIs fighters that escape, or are freed by force, in the conflict, are gonna leave their homeland, and go to europe?? oh dont worry, IF  Iran keeps up their sponsoring of terror in the area, MAYBE we'll step in.  yeah like these guys will believe that..in the arab mind betrayal is one of the greatest sins. maybe you've noticed. these guys dont forgive much, and never forget a slight, or preceived insult. that said the only hope we have to counter this shit is a faint one, that they realize its NOT  the US, but donny the douche. that shit on them.  as far as the doche goes, that is a sack o shit that is SOOOOO big my head would explode if I started in on it right now... I mean as an old fuck I have seen, heard from this shitwad since the mid 70's it still blows my mind that this fuck got elected.. but then I consider that he ran against hillary an bernie .... if this is the BEST we as a nation can do as" leaders" , of the free world we're fucked....   as always... I'm still fury and I'm still pissed

welcome to the rant 24

welcome back, ok so here we go guns, and those who own them, and misuse them.  this is a sore subject for many in this country and around the world.. how the hell do we stop the loonies from mass shootings?? answer: WE DON'T.... if ya really, really want to start a civil war in this country just try, I do mean try to take our weapons..we as a country, were born by the gun, and we damn sure will die by it as well. we are the ONLY nation, which was founded by the use of rifles, and pistols as our main weapons to conquer . other nations have used them to overthrow, or subvert existing cultures. but we are the ONLY ones to take an entire continent by their use alone.. as opposed to swords,bow an arrows, spear, etc. this defined us as a people, its in our constitution, that we should have a well armed militia. at the time, that meant everybody [men] had a rifle,or shotgun at least.  as we out grew the militia needs, we as a people decided, that the 2nd amendment,[supported by the courts ] meant we the PEOPLE, could own and bear arms so to prevent govt, from overruling, or turning into a monarchy, despot run, ect.. form of rule....here is the problem.. while to many of folk , liberals, dem's, or other's of semi passive bent. we gotta get rid of the guns... its a nice thought but will take a war to achieve. I myself am a believer in private ownership of weapons. until there are no robbers, rapist, thieves, or murderers, out there ya gotta have the ability to defend yourself. in this time its a gun. in old times a a sword or bow, or spear ya get it. now lets talk about the loonies. yeah I know they kill a buttload of peeps when they go off.. that said lets just look at my favorite response to this latest pair of loonie induced shootings.. from neil degasse tyson: on avg in 48 hrs we lose 500 to med errors,300 to the flu,250 to suicide,200 to car wrecks,and 40 more to pure on gun violence... thats 1250 deaths in 2 days to non gun violence... the 20 gun deaths a day given the 300,000,000 peeps that inhabit the U.S aint shit .. if you add up all the peeps killed in these 'mass" shootings,over a ten year span, you still have less than we lose on a daily basis to non gun deaths..i realize that this was not what the peeps wanted, they want outrage, retribution, every gun off the street. I want the docs, nurses held accountable for their part in the 500 dead patients. do ya hear a clamor for their heads??? fuck no. lets just sensationalize the nutbag w/ a gun. I agree w/ the background checks for all purchase of weps, at all shops, and trade shows. but ya also hav'ta realize that a good percenage of gun sales are between ordinary peeps. not shops, or shows. so whats next ?? " high capacity mags"  I agree that a 50 to 100 round drum is exessive dont u? until u get to defend your home with a bolt action 5 shot rifle.. and the attackers have 30+ round mags, or drums.  WHATS DA CHANCE O DAT???? not likely unless your damn unlucky, or the feds or[ nowadays just the cops  want yer ass.] they gonna come at ya w/ everything including armored vehicles, tear gas. full combat assault gear..it all comes back to our founding fathers, who KNEW that power corrupts, and that they will use ANY MEANS NECESSARY.. to protect that power and privilege.. so WE THE PEOPLE had best never, give up this right of ours to bear arms. we will have to suffer w/ the loonies, but at least the powerful, and monied, are kept somewhat at bay by the sheer fact so many of us DO have weapons, and we WILL put up a fight for our rights , this helps to level the playing field a little as they cant just steamroll us, they have to bamboozle, and coerce, and otherwise bullshit us into believing they are "protecting" us, that they care about us.   here are a few stats I found to give us some perspective  DEATHS BY GUN: 36,383 ...... suicide  22,274...homicide 12,830..unintentional..487...shot by cops 496[believed in this case to be underreported]  WOUNDED BY GUN:   100,120...  assault 76,258... unintentional 18,362.. self harm 4,149... shot by cops 1,350. [stats by everytown for gun safety]  now lets just take a look at all other kinds of death shall we??  heart disease..647,474 [WOW]..cancer 599,108... again wow!   accidental injuries.. 169,936... lung disease  160,120... stroke 146,383... diabetes  83,564...flu 55,000...suicide 47,173....DEATH BY CAR: 37,133  now those are some serious stats.  it would seem that cars are just as fuckin dangerous as a gun . and if you look at the overall pic just being sick is the cause of 2,008,758 deaths... I am more concerned w/ the car death/ gun death , but again,more than half of all gun death is suicide..  now these stats are also a bit misleading as you get more in NYC. than in buffalo, more in LA. than stockton, in fact I'd bet every dollar I got, the MORE PEOPLE THE MORE SHOOTERS.. urban shooters account for more deaths on the whole, but it's the suburban loonies that get the press.. the outrage.. thats cause the urban shooter KNOWS, he gonna face retribution from the peeps.. his family will b targeted, his friends, his f' in dog.. you don't see this as much, there are exceptions. las vegas for one, lubys way back. in this case , he traveled from dallas to el paso.  maybe he figured he would find more targets[ poor minorities] there than dallas, when your driven by anger and rhetoric, u aint really thinking too straight or you'd come up w/ a better solution to begin w/.  so here we are cause and effect... what cause's these fuckers ta go off?? were they bullied, picked on, or just did'nt fit in?  do they just have so much hate, and apathy, they HAVE to strike out?? or is it as simple as they are just, fucking idiots, and have no self control, or self worth and need to show the world they were here and in their mind " accomplished" something.. I for one, damn sure don't know, ..but I do know this... I'm still fury, an I'm still pissed, so till next time...

welcome back to the rant 23

well its been 16 months since I last spewed forth, but I just gotta get some shit off my mind.. after a conversation w/  my longest, and best friend... { its weird , we only talk about a dozen times  year at best} yet its true. I felt I need to rant to live...so let's get started.. politicians,  goddamn politicians, fukin goddamn politicians...these fools will turn any and every fucked up event into a chance to grandstand , and pose..our 2 " political" parties, are so busy infighting, nothing gets done.. now I realize the whole concept of politics is ....yes that nasty ass word... compromise.  yet for this admin that word is shit. the repub's block 90% of dem moves and the dems do the same.. so we the people end up w/ total shit, coming out of both ends.  THEN, when we get loony tunes, that use the retoric of hate that flows from this admin, its as if  its a surprise..he RAN on a platform of racism, discrimination, { of women, minoritys, and the poor} he has yet to ever admit, the nationalist movement, is racial, not just political... BUT it ain't just the repubs, NOT having the balls to slap the taste out his mouth, for sayin the shit he does . its the millions of  people that support this racist, misogonyistc, asshole. they are the ones who love this. its their dream come true.. david duke in the white house, pushing the old white money agenda... keep them down, keep them down, for gods sake keep them down.. this applies to ALL minorities [ meaning non white ], women and especialy the poor..then the dems put out the " new breed" of socialist asshole, that just want to give everything to the poor, or losers that cant "do for themselves"... yeah thats gonna fuckin work.. these dip shits have already shown they cant handle anything, yet you want to give them the power to fuck the rest of us.
they expect "we the people" to house, feed, clothe, and educate. tens of thousands, of immigrants, who arent paying taxes.. in most of my exp w/  the construction industry, while they do put some money into the local economy, food, rent, sundrys for living. most money goes back "home" to families. now all this comes out of the pockets of " citizens," and those immigrants that are hear legally, and DO pay taxes, ect.. there is a fair middle ground, yet the concept of the wall, brings images, of berlin in the cold war. that said we HAVE to protect our border, that means 50,000 troops on the border or you guessed it a fucking barrier.. in this case a goddamn wall that slows the flow of people entering without documents..or drugs... for the love of christ, what is the issue.. people ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY PUT UP FENCES... keep out, no tresspasing, these signs are all over .. so what the fuck is wrong with protecting this society from intrusion.. you put up a fence in your yard to keep your dog in, to create a "personal" space , to keep others OFF YOUR PROPERTY..  this is the least of our fuckin problems  build the wall you democratic douche.. I DONT want it but we NEED IT.  yes I know, I didnt rant about the mass killings that just took place.. that will come...... for now I'm fury and I'm still pissed...

welcome to the rant and rave 22

well now, its been a long ass time since I posted a rant. I guess time just flowed away, and I just got complacent.. but 9+ years??? shit....and what brings me back, you ask?  opinions...that's right opinions. everybody's got one,  it seems, some have assload's. some good some not, but their yours, nevertheless....the problem I have, is you think they really matter, to ANYONE, but you.  that's right, I  guess I'm just old school..if you don't have anything nice to say, say nothing. yeah, my fucking ass. I'll call you out for bullshit, tell ya like it is. but by an large , the truth is I just don't give a shit about you, or your " opinion " if more people [ I use this term very, very, loosely ] would just shut the fuck up, and listen more, we damn sure would have better relations. but nooooouuuo.....  with facebook, twitter, ect. you can spew forth your "opinions" into the nether regions, where others of like ilk will read and fawn.  but wait.. aren"t you condeming the same action that your doing right now???  why, yes I am... that was one of the reasons this rant went dormant for so long. I felt somewhat at odds with my hatred of those who are on their fucking phones, ALL THE TIME....checking mail, texting [ and killing people ]  surfing, playing games. again spewing forth an assload of useless shit into the air.  social media is a misnomer, if ever there was.  there seem's to be a lot more hate, and bullying and abuse.. but then it was always there, it just needs the cloak of anominity to come forth. it used to be that people would step in to help others, now they film it so they can post it..  this shit will be the death of us... so remember .. nobody REALLY gives a shit about your opinions, nor mine I'm sure.  for now... I'm fury and i;m still pissed.

welcome to the rant and rave 21

well, I'm baack. yes, I know it's been, a couple of weeks. I just had other shit to deal with. so lets start bitching...health care reform!!! for the love of God, quit all the talking, and FUCKING DO SOMETHING!!!!! trade deficit. if we will quit sending all our manufacturing jobs overseas, then MAYBE, we will have a chance to REALLY, start to compete again. back a few years ago there was a major push to " BUY AMERICAN " what the hell happened to that? simple we sent the jobs out to OTHER country's, so now THEY produce, the product, and sell it back to US. its hard to buy AMERICAN products when we don't produce them. we keep shutting down our factories, and out source to china, mexico, korea, etc, etc, et fucking ctera. they make cheap, shitty products, and WE keep buying them. the Chinese, have had, more MAJOR recalls for crappy, or DEADLY products, in the last 2 years. than any other country. yet the US gov STILL, gives them a FAVORED NATION, treaty. they PURPOSELY, undercut, our own price's yet no response from our own gov. I guess when you pay your workers pennies, it doesn't matter, what you charge for your product, you GOING TO MAKE MONEY!!!! meanwhile back here in the US of A, we are at 10+% unemployment. yeah, that's how you can compete, with the world. DON'T sell, just buy shit. as we posture, and pose, we're getting our ass's kicked, in the world market. if we don't pull our heads out of our ass, and DO SOMETHING, to change this trend, we won't be the world leader for long. the Chinese own a HUGE chunk of our country, not to mention, our bond,and treasury notes. if we threaten their trade agreements, they say they'll call in our notes. if we increase their tariffs, they will respond by raising ours .we have let these assholes get us over a barrel by our OWN corporate greed, and failures. in a trade war we LOSE, because WE, shipped our own manufacturing capabilities offshore. from 1930 to 1995 NOBODY could compete with us, BECAUSE of our mfg power. today it's almost non-existent. as a country, we have failed ourselves, as a super power we are on the brink. disaster, is in our future, if we don't reclaim our power base of mfg. stand up AMERICA, fight for our selves, because NOBODY, and I mean NOBODY, else will. we were once the envy of the world. now we're just a shadow of our former selves. for now I'm fury,and I'm still pissed....

welcome to the rant and rave 20

welcome back. lets, go off on the " war on drugs ". when the hell is our gov. going to realize that this is a lost cause? much like prohibition,the "war on drugs " is so much bullshit. this is a cause, or fight, that will NEVER be "won". as long as we [ Americans ] desire to use drugs, this saga will never end. by making drugs illegal, all we are doing, is giving the criminals, a way to make massive amounts of money. just like Prohibition. I realize that the powers that be, use this as a way to show that they are staunch believers in sobriety. this is just more bullshit on the political trail. the " fight " gives the law enforcement community, a massive amount of money to spend. as long as the states, keep getting all this federal money, it ensures that more, and more people are employed. the fact, that the billions we spend on this "war ", simply put more people on payrolls, is the true reason behind this fight. I mean, lets get real here, on this subject. If the "war" IS ever won, what will happen to the hundreds of thousands of cops on the payroll? if we take the billions of dollars we spend on this war, and put it into rehab, and education programs, we will have a better chance of winning a victory. this means, the true way to victory is, to LEGALIZE, drug possession. if the GOVERNMENT, will BUY, SELL, and otherwise CONTROL total import and taxation of these substances. then they will cut out all the gangs, street dealers, and probably most of the violence, that come along with the drug trade. the government can buy, and sell these drugs MUCH cheaper than is now the case. they can then, TAX it, like liquor. if you look at the stats,on our prison populations,you quickly realize that over 60% of all those, now behind bars are there for DRUG CHARGES!!!! these range from simple possession, to dealing, and all in between. the cost to keep these people in prison's, is staggering. a Conservative estimate, is over $30,000 PER INMATE. that is more than, a goodly amount of our population earn in one year of WORK. there is more than 1% of the American population, now incarcerated. this is the highest in the world. at that estimate, it comes to over, 2.6 MILLION prisoners. at $30,000 a pop, that's one hell of a lot, of OUR money being wasted. just imagine, what could be done for our country with that money. at least this way,[ legalizing drugs ] the only ones to be hurt,are those THAT CHOOSE, to use them [ drugs ]. by selling, and TAXING, these drugs, the US gov. will stand to put BILLIONS, INTO our nations coffers , NOT SPEND billions, in what is obviously a lost cause. all that the prohibition, of alcohol did in the 30's was create, and support the gangster lifestyle. this is now being played out, on a much greater scale, than those, bad old days. we need to heed the lessons learned in the past,and change our ways. so for now.... I'm fury, and I'm still pissed.

welcome to the rant and rave 19

welcome back. today we talk of past crimes against humanity. here we are more than 62 yrs after the end of ww 2, and yet we are still spending money on the hunt for, old nazi's. the newest one is a low level asshole, who is CLAIMED to have killed, ONE thats right, ONE jew in 1942. now the asshole in question, is 88, yes, you heard me right, he's 88 yr's old.there are no witnesses, only a letter this idiot may, or may not , have written 57 yrs ago. now this man is not even reputed to be a " nazi ", only a guy who worked for the police in poland ,during the ghetto riot's. he came to the US. in 1949, was naturalized in 55', and led a perfectly ordinary life,in the states since that time. I mean to say, not one arrest, for ANYTHING. he never commited a crime in the states . he worked for chrysler for 30 yr's, paid his taxes,raised a family,all with not so much as a hint,of racist rhetoric, or overtones. yet the jews in power have gone after this man like he was himmler himself. stripping him of citizenship in 2007, and now deporting him to god knows where. the last nazi that this was done to was TRULY, a bonified nazi, with over 42,000 deaths on his hands. this poor ass, was simply doing what he HAD to in order to survive. how many cops in poland, the czech rep. ,the ddr. or other nazifed countries, have been prosecuted? answer? damned few. as a matter of fact NONE, in the US. in the last 10-20 years.how many of our hard earned dollars, have gone into this bullshit charge,and trial? It's one thing to go after, the TRUE killers of jews in the nazi regime,and quite another to hound a man, who has done nothing, but be a good american citizen for 54 yr's. I believe, that the men who supported the extermination of the jews in the camps, and in the fields of Europe, should be brought to justice. I just can't see where this man, has done anything criminal enough, to warrant such treatment. the war is OVER, it has been for 62 YEARS, for the love of God, let it fucking go. we have more pressing problems facing our country,RIGHT NOW, than the persecution, of a man who MAY, have been a cop in 1942, and MAY,have shot ONE, again ONE jew. if we go after all the worthless fucks, who MAY, have killed a jew in the war. we are going to be spending, a LOT of money on this shit. while I sympathize with those who lived through, those times of fear,and death. the time has come to look forward,to the future. the jewish people, have more than enough enemies, that wish them harm in the here, and now. than to dwell on the few who remain from the past. we must NEVER forget the atrocity's that took place, during that vile time in our history, lest they be repeated, but we must also, move forward. so for now, I'm fury, and I'm still pissed..... later.
