When Does It Becomes Incitement to Violence?

I think it’s been apparent for a long time to most people that Tucker Qatarlson and Kooky Candace Owens have continued their descent into mental instability. I’ve said before, Jew hatred rots the brain, but even I’m amazed at how publicly they are willing to display their mad dash from Jew hatred into full on insanity.

I’ve written about this before, but they decided to up the ante. They’ve decided to attack Chabad. For those not familiar with Chabad,

Chabad-Lubavitch is a major movement within mainstream Jewish tradition with its roots in the Chassidic movement of the 18th century. In Czarist and Communist Russia, the leaders of Chabad led the struggle for the survival of Torah Judaism, often facing imprisonment and relentless persecution for their activities. After the Holocaust, under the direction of Rabbi Yosef Yitzchaak Schneerson and his successor, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, of righteous memory, Chabad became a worldwide movement, caring for the spiritual and material needs of all Jews, wherever they could be found.

Today, over 3,500 Chabad institutions are located in more than 100 countries, with a new center opening on the average every ten days. In South Africa, South America, Russia, Australia, Asia, the UK, and many parts of the USA, Chabad has become the most dynamic and dominant force within the Jewish community.

Pretty sinister stuff, eh what?

I’ll do Kooky Candy first as she is echoing Tucker’s claims.

Candace on digging tunnels

“Remember they are digging tunnels in New York and in cities all across America. They are taking over entire towns in New Jersey.” She described Chabad as a “radical sect of mystic occultists” and urged followers to be aware of Chabad centers near them.

But Kooky Candy is willing to accuse any Jew of anything. No proof needed, she just makes stuff up and says tune in to her next episode and she’ll bring receipts. She just doesn’t tell you they’re from her last trip to McDonald’s.

Candace accuses PM Netanyahu

Candace Owens Goes Full Nutjob: Backs Tucker’s Chabad Conspiracy, Claims ‘Jews Tried to Murder Me’ in Unhinged Rant

“Calculated evil”: Candace Owens joins Tucker Carlson in a “clown-level” attack on Chabad-Lubavitch, peddling victimhood fantasies and “conspiratorial nonsense.”

Ok, this one actually makes me chuckle, I mean Israel is taking out Ayatollahs by the dozen before breakfast. Leaders of the IRGC are walking around disguised as women, and really with the Burkas Iran forces the women to wear it’s probably hard to tell except some of them are really really tall. Last year during and after Midnight Hammer Iranian nuclear scientists were dropping like houseflies. The Basij are now riding their motorcycles around Iran wearing jackets of construction workers, police stations, IRGC buildings and specific apartments in an apartment building are being taken out. And they can’t find Candace at Dollywood? She accuses Israel of killing a President of the US, John F. Kennedy and yet she has no fear of making such an outrageous accusation? She must think her followers are exceedingly stupid, or blind, as she is not the least bit worried about Israel targeting her.

Candace Owens claims Lubavitcher rebbe ‘hated non-Jews’

Responding furiously to Owens’ claims, Chabad spokesman Yaacov Behrman said she had displayed “utter ignorance in her idiotic, ad hominem attack” against Rabbi Schneerson.

“Israel Shahak was a discredited, self-loathing Jew – and the fact that she quotes him as if he’s some respected authority suggests that she has waded into waters that are far too deep for her,” he said.

I’m pretty sure the puddle behind my car is waters far deep for her to wade in as she lacks discernment as to where to search for information on a topic.

Fans of Lubavitcher Rebbe respond to Candace Owens’ criticism of him

By going after Schneerson, Owens prompted a response from Chabad itself. The movement and its emissaries chiefly sought to dispel her claim that Schneerson thought Jews were superior to non-Jews.

The Rebbe saw the importance of each individual, no matter how ordinary they might seem,” Chabad’s official X account wrote as part of a long thread on his life. “His door was open to all. The Rebbe dedicated hours daily to personally responding to letters from people worldwide.”

And as a devout Catholic, apparently Kooky Candy considers this sort of behavior, her duty. Except apparently some in the Catholic church don’t agree.

Why Candace Owens’ Jewish conspiracy theories violate Catholic teachings

Christian tradition has always held that those who speak publicly in the name of the faith bear a grave responsibility for the truth of their words. Speech that spreads false accusations, imputes corruption to entire peoples, or revives historic patterns of hatred does more than inflame political debate — it violates the moral law and damages Christian witness.

In a previous article, I argued that Candace Owens’ public rhetoric has reached a level of grave scandal that calls for ecclesial discipline, up to and including excommunication. This article addresses the substance of that concern.

.

With those principles established, we can now examine the specific patterns that appear in Owens’ public commentary. The purpose of examining these statements is not to condemn a person but to evaluate public rhetoric in light of Catholic moral teaching. Christians are called to judge ideas and words according to the truth, while leaving the ultimate judgment of souls to God.

The concern here is not a single controversial remark but a recurring pattern of rhetoric visible across Owens’ own public posts and broadcasts. Five types of claims appear repeatedly.

The writer then goes on to give examples and explain why they are against Catholic teachings.

But honestly, I’m not sure excommunication would phase her that much. She was denied entry into Jihadi loving Australia due to her Holocaust denial and that hasn’t phased her.

Australia bans Candace Owens from entering country due to antisemitism

“Australia’s national interest is best served when Candace Owens is somewhere else,” said Tony Burke, the Immigration Minister.

But Kooky Candy is feeding off and singing back up for Tucker Qatarlson and his demon.

So onto Tucker Qatarlson, a “C-C”1 or a C-C2. Feel free to choose.

Tucker Carlson Blames Chabad for Iran War, Claims Secret Plan to Rebuild Temple

Commentator Tucker Carlson triggered a storm this week after accusing the global Chabad-Lubavitch movement of secretly pushing for the destruction of the Islamic shrines on Jerusalem’s Temple Mount and the construction of a Third Jewish Temple. The remarks came as Israel remains locked in a widening confrontation with Iran and its regional proxies. Carlson, who commands a massive online audience, used his program to present the war as part of a Jewish religious agenda, claiming that Chabad has been quietly working to advance plans to remove the Dome of the Rock and the Al Aqsa Mosque in order to rebuild the Temple.

….

Chabad, headquartered in Crown Heights in Brooklyn, operates Jewish outreach centers in more than 100 countries and is widely known for its work encouraging Jewish practice. The movement is not a political organization and does not run campaigns related to Israeli military or government policy.

Carlson’s theory relied partly on images of Israeli soldiers wearing patches depicting a Temple. Those images in fact, came from social media posts connected to the Temple Institute, an advocacy group that promotes education about the Temple and preparation for its eventual restoration. The institute has no connection to Chabad.

Despite the lack of evidence, Carlson framed the current war as a “global religious war” allegedly triggered by Jewish ambitions regarding the Temple Mount. He also claimed that Christians die disproportionately in such conflicts, suggesting hidden motives behind Jewish support for Israel.

I don’t really want to give Tucker, the clicks, so if you haven’t seen the video I’ll give you this one with Ollie.

So, a few points. Sorry, but you can’t get the patches from Chabad. You can get them from High on The Har They have way cool patches, tee-shirts and other things. Reasonable prices and come from Israel as well! High on the Har donates them to soldiers, and you can make a donation to help give them to the soldiers. You can get them from The Israel Guys They have patches, baseball caps and the like. Another place you might be able to find them is The Temple Institute’s store. They aren’t shipping right now, but their website is fascinating. I’ve actually been to their store and just thought it was marvelous. But getting your “official Chabad Third Temple patch” is right out, sorry. Although maybe I should suggest it.

Actually, I think in a column well over a year or more ago I wrote about the patches. These columns from Arutz Sheva are from Oct 24 and March of 25. It’s interesting, soldiers that were sent into Gaza talked about the homes they were in searching for terrorists and all the homes had pictures of abomination on the Temple Mount known as The Dome of the Rock.. Muslims doing what muslims do, they build mollusks on top of defeated religious sites, or when possible, they buy a church or synagogue and turn in into a mollusk, they’ve taken over you see? They vanquished the infidel. It’s why they wanted to build an “Islamic Center” on the site of the 9/11 attacks. Who knows, with the muslim shia 12er mayor, it could still happen. The soldiers said they arabs knew what they were fighting for, it isn’t about land, it’s about religion.

Official IDF photo shows ‘Moshiach patch’ on soldier’s helmet

But Ollie is correct, this does have very real impact.

Chabad on high alert after false Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens war claims

Chabad, a sect of Hasidic Judaism known for its global religious outreach and houses on hundreds of college campuses, does not function as a political advocacy organization. Its teachings describe the rebuilding of the Third Temple as part of a future messianic redemption achieved through acts of mitzvot — not a project to be advanced through modern warfare or the destruction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

To blame it on a Hasidic movement based in Brooklyn that just goes around the world, spreading Judaism, spreading love, spreading kindness, it’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard,” Yossi Farro, a member of the Chabad movement known for wrapping tefillin with celebrities, told the Forward in a phone interview. “He’s appealing to people that have never heard of Chabad and now, their first opinion is, this is horrible, these people are warmongers — which is the exact opposite of what we represent.”

….

The rhetoric also follows a series of attacks targeting Chabad celebrations. In December, a gunman opened fire at a Chabad Hanukkah celebration at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. The incident left 15 people dead, including a Chabad rabbi, a Holocaust survivor and a 10-year-old girl.

In January, a driver repeatedly rammed his car into an entrance to the Chabad-Lubavitch world headquarters in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, damaging the building on a night thousands had gathered there to celebrate.

After Tucker Smear, Chabad Surges Security, Donations – and Mitzvos

As a result of Carlson’s false claims, the Brooklyn Chabad rabbi has already ramped up security. “Carlson blames Chabad for the Iran war, then Owens posted ‘find out where your local Chabad is’ so the threat level is raised,” he said. “My first responsibility is to keep everyone safe. I had to ask police to be outside this past Shabbos. And now I’m going to have to get video cameras and an armed guard for Shabbos, which costs up to $500 per Shabbos.”

Chabad on high alert after false Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens war claims

Jewish institutions are on high alert after Tucker Carlson falsely claimed on his podcast Wednesday that the Chabad-Lubavitch movement is behind the war in Iran.

Carlson claimed that Chabad is orchestrating a religious war aimed at destroying the Al-Aqsa mosque and the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem’s Old City so that the Third Temple could be rebuilt in its place.

This has been going on a long time in public through, in part, the efforts of a group called Chabad. C-H-A-B-A-D,” Carlson said.

And, I would come to the same conclusion as my all time favorite Israeli government spokesman, Eylon Levy.

Candace & Tucker have goals and dreams

Not that long ago I mentioned in a column one of Candy’s mentally unstable followers was on his way to kill Jewish media personalities.

But this doesn’t just hold threats of physical violence in the immediate future, it has other threats.

From a recent Patrick Bet-David podcast. It will start at the correct section.

https://www.youtube.com/live/NBJjVU61huM?t=4904s

It starts out with a bit of Tucker history, but then it leads into where the Tucker threat for the future lies, and it’s not a very distant future, it’s happening now. And it’s the young that are buying it. This is the poll he mentions.

referenced poll

Adam I think is 100% correct, the loss of Charlie has cost our country and our youth much.

I think it’s well worth it to stick through the discussion on JD Vance.

You know, it’s fascinating really. This Third Temple business that seems to terrify Tucker. Since when did the loss of a muslim holy site so upset a C-C#1? Wouldn’t a Christian and Jewish sites be more important to him than a muslim one? And by the way, what’s up with that picture of Fatima next to him?

Now, I may be breaking a code of silence here, but I don’t think I am, I’m going to share with you a few sentences from a top secret book of Jewish mystical beliefs that so terrifies Tucker. I’m warning you, you read this at your own risk!

Yeshayahu (Isaiah) – Chapter 56

1 So says the Lord, “Keep justice and practice righteousness, for My salvation is near to come, and My benevolence to be revealed.”

2 Fortunate is the man who will do this and the person who will hold fast to it, he who keeps the Sabbath from profaning it and guards his hand from doing any evil.

3 Now let not the foreigner who joined the Lord, say, “The Lord will surely separate me from His people,” and let not the eunuch say, “Behold, I am a dry tree.”

4 For so says the Lord to the eunuchs who will keep My Sabbaths and will choose what I desire and hold fast to My covenant,

5″ I will give them in My house and in My walls a place and a name, better than sons and daughters; an everlasting name I will give him, which will not be discontinued.

6 And the foreigners who join with the Lord to serve Him and to love the name of the Lord, to be His servants, everyone who observes the Sabbath from profaning it and who holds fast to My covenant.

7 I will bring them to My holy mount, and I will cause them to rejoice in My house of prayer, their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be acceptable upon My altar, for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.

8 So says the Lord God, Who gathers in the dispersed of Israel, I will yet gather others to him, together with his gathered ones.

9 All the beasts of the field, come to devour all the beasts in the forest.

10 His lookouts are all blind, they do not know, dumb dogs who cannot bark; they lie slumbering, loving to slumber.

11 And the dogs are of greedy disposition, they know not satiety; and they are shepherds who know not to understand; they all turned to their way, each one to his gain, every last one.

12 “Come, I will take wine, and let us guzzle old wine, and tomorrow shall be like this, [but] greater [and] much more.”

You would think as a C-C#1 Tucker would know about this and the Third Temple wouldn’t you? That he too, would long for Moshiach and the Third Temple. But he doesn’t because he is a C-C#2, and by their actions and words they have placed people in danger, so at what point does their hatred become incitement to violence, because I would think that we are there. Self defense is Biblical, absolutely.

And in case you need a dose of humor after all that, here’s Ami Kozak’s take on Tucker, his demon and the insane attack on Chabad. Six minutes worth, the end is great if you have to skip ahead.

I’m signing up for the evening tunnel digging shift, with a shovel. Not sure my accuracy with a pick ax is up to snuff.

Candles Can Stop Gaslighting For Fun & Profit

Well, one of my favorite holidays, Hanukkah is drawing to a close. This year it has been especially powerful for me. As I’ve written in previous columns concerning the miracles of Hanukkah, one of the things that’s different about Hanukkah is that unlike Purim, which celebrates the survival of the Jews from the destruction planned by Hamen, Hanukkah was about destroying Judaism, not Jews exactly. Antiochus would let you live, just don’t be so, well, Jew-ish. Antiochus didn’t have a firm grasp that you really can’t separate a person as a person, from their Judaism. A person can, but that’s a decision they are making. And so the holiday of Hanukkah celebrates the victory of the Jews over the Hellenists and a huge army who didn’t handle rejection of their vision of what would come to be known as JINOs, Jews in Name Only, or left wing Jews. But before the Macabees light that solitary bottle of kosher oil that was found for the Menorah in the now cleaned are rededicated temple, there was a massive battle fought. Without that battle, there would have been no oil, no rededicated Temple, no Menorah, no latkas, no sufganiyot…oh, well, ok so that last couple of items don’t exactly have the same significance, but still.

Today, we’re seeing a similar battle. And I believe like my hero Judah Macabee, that it has to be fought, and is a worthy battle. Its the rise of antisemitism coming from the right. Or as Dinesh D’Souza called them, “The Woke Reich”.

I believe it started with the murder of Charlie Kirk. In the wake of that horrific murder the conversations centered on the irresponsible and inflammatory rhetoric coming from the left against conservative figures. Charlie was not a racist, hateful or any of the other things the left and the media accused him of being. But I repeat myself. People like Jimmy Kimmel discovered normal every day Americans had had it with the dancing in the blood of people we respected. The lone sane democrat John Fetterman spoke out against calling people on the right nazis and things like that. Just when it seemed like America was on the verge of having a productive conversation about debating ideas rather than just ranting and screaming….well known grifter Candace Owens rushed out waving her arms screaming “Look at me!!! Look at me!!!!” As I believe the Macrons are suing Kooky Candy for her obsession with Brigette’s genitalia, she needed to find something else. And since she and Charlie had been friends, and from the way she acts, she wanted more than that, his death appears to have wound up being the new grift.

‘IT WAS THE JEWS!’ Screams Candace Owens On First Round Of ‘Clue’*

“IT WAS THE JEWS!” Owens cried. “The Jews, in the Conservatory, with the Space Laser!”

In Clue, the classic “whodunit” board game, players are charged with solving the murder of Mr. Boddy by determining where he was killed, with what weapon, and by whom. Owens, knowing that the Jews are secretly in control of the entire world, knew she wouldn’t need to find any clues to solve the mystery.

And that’s actually NOT too far off of what happened. That was the start of her wild allegations against a whole list of people that she believes killed Charlie. She accused Jewish donor to TPUSA Bill Akman and demanded he release an entire text message thread, and he did vindicating him. Did she apologize or admit she was wrong? HA! Nope she moved on to her next target, Bibi Netanyahu demanding he release the entire letter Charlie sent him implying he was concealing Charlie’s shift away from Israel. The gall of this guttersnipe is amazing. She thinks she can demand people give her what she wants and if they don’t it implies they’re hiding something and she was correct. No, she’s bat guano crazy, but that doesn’t stop her on her crazy train. As best I can tell the list of the people she’s accused of being involved in Charlie’s murder or the cover up include, but are not limited to, and may have grown since I compiled this list a couple of days ago.

She’s been on a tear about Egyptian planes and flight paths and how they prove they were shadowing Ericka around. Showing a chart with data points, very investigative of her. Except like UTC not meaning Utah Time, she was wrong about this as well.

Exposing Candace Owens’ Egyptian Planes: “66% Wrong on FlightRadar24!” Done by Kanekoa, and unlike Candace, he has receipts.

You know who Candace doesn’t think did it? The guy whos parents turned him in to the Sheriff’s Department and who the FBI thinks did it. Yeah, the one dating a furry who wrote Hey fascist catch, on his cartridges. A girlfriend of mine is so miffed about this she could spit nails. She said after all this, the jury may well have enough reasonable doubt because of all the doubt being thrown out there in Candace crap. She’s afraid the jury will either not find him guilty or not give him the death penalty.

But Egyptian planes are far from the only thing Candace has been wrong or lying about. If you’re curious about the rise of Candace, A Full Timeline of Candace Owens’ Bizarre Political Flip-Flops.

Part of how Candace became known was her involvement in “Blexit”. And a former volunteer tells us how she did with that.

Candace’s actions at Blexit

At one time Candace was involved with Prager U. She had become so antisemitic that Dennis Prager reached out to her to try to explain to her why her “facts” weren’t facts and what was incorrect in her claims. She didn’t respond, and Dennis then made the long letter public and it is well worth reading. Dennis Prager’s Letter to Candace Owens

.I wish I did not have to write this letter. But Candace has said many things that need to be answered. The primary reasons I have not spoken out sooner are that I needed to become fully acquainted with all or nearly all the things she has said about Jews, Zionism, and Israel, make sure I quoted her accurately, and that I never did so out of context. That was time-consuming work.

I ask anyone who has been influenced by Candace with regard to Jews, Israel, and Zionism to make the effort to read this entire letter. If you care about truth, I believe you have a moral obligation to do so.

Dennis Prager

.

And then you might want to have a listen to Jeremy Boreing explaining to the Daily Wire team why they had fired Candace. And he’s not stating opinions, he’s citing actual example of things she has done or said and in what context. It’s also worth hearing him explain some of her tactics. Like making statements that both antisemites such as Nick Fuentes and people supportive of Israel and Jews perceive to be antisemitic. When the antisemitic group applaud her statement, she never pushes back and says, hey I didn’t mean that against Jews or Israel, she just lets it stand. But then when someone pushes back on a statement, she claims she never said that, they just took it that way and it’s their fault. Yet, somehow two polar opposite groups believe she did say something antisemitic. Gas lighting 101 or dealing with an emotionally abusive person.

And her duplicity in her wording is where a lot of the division is coming from. As Jeremy points out, for a skilled communicator, one of the best, if she wanted to be clear, she would. She doesn’t. Her game is to sow dissension and innuendo. For my example, I will go with the did she accuse President Trump of killing Charlie?

In the clip of Owens’ latest take on Kirk’s assassination, she does mention Trump but there is no direct accusation leveled at him. One of the profiles sharing that Owens was blaming Trump put out a part of her speech as well.

She said “He gave so much of his life to Trump & to politics, and they were just like NOPE. That’s it. So here’s a holiday. What is with them giving them a holiday after they kill them?…As soon as they give you a boulevard and a holiday, they definitely killed you. There’s no question – they killed you.

So of course she will say she never accused President Trump. Not to mention her trick bag of “I just know, you know”, or in a dream, or I got a tip, or or or. But maybe that’s why she said she didn’t care about the midterms. I for one, don’t want to live under demoncrat control again. But hey, what are midterms to her?

Now lets look at Tucker.

Tucker appears to be suffering from the onset of dementia.

And like all devout Christians in Tuckerworld, he’s very supportive of Islam.

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/iELcz7BUEkM

When trying to find a short clip of this part of his AmFest speech on YouTube, I found it interesting that it was posted in many accounts, and the ones listed toward the top all have account names like MuslimMom, or Muslim in the account name, or you click on it and all the comments are supportive of Islam. But this was a short clip so I picked it. I’m sure Tucker likes Islamic countries very much, after all, he’s buying a house in Doha Qatar, financial supporter of Muslim Brotherhood terrorism. And, America first, right?

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/6sc6F5JDc6s

Since January, Tucker Carlson has been funded by Qatar and has become an opponent of Trump

Tucker’s trustworthiness is probably similar to Candace, he just has a different technique.

Debunking Tucker Carlson’s Darryl Cooper Interview Hillsdale is a wonderful resource.

Recently, Tucker Carlson hosted the podcaster-cum-historian Darryl Cooper on his show. Though introduced as the “best and most honest popular historian in the United States,” Cooper spent his time peddling ahistorical conspiracies and factual errors. Gaining over thirty-four million views on X alone, such assertions need to be challenged. Most of all, his attacks on Sir Winston Churchill.

Or who can forget his riveting interview with the Christian nun with the mustache The Anti-Semitic Nun Who Happens to Be George Stephanopoulos’s Sister

There is a special kind of dishonesty that corrodes everything it touches. It wears the trappings of religion, borrows the vocabulary of faith, and then uses both as camouflage for something entirely different. People instinctively give it a pass because it comes wrapped in sacred cloth. That instinct is exactly what the deceiver is counting on.

We saw a perfect example when Mother Agapia Stephanopoulos — yes, the sister of broadcaster George Stephanopoulos — appeared on Tucker Carlson’s show. She did not come to offer a theological reflection or spiritual counsel. She came to launder old anti-Israel tropes in the language of humanitarian concern. By presenting herself as a defender of persecuted Christians, she dressed hostility toward Israel in the costume of virtue.

And of course, Tucker was right up front about his guest being the sister of a demoncrat advisor..

scratch that, he never mentioned it. That’s a pretty interesting article by the way. The nun with a mustache is every bit as honest as Tucker at this point.

Tucker Carlson Interrupts Speech For Evening Prayer To Mecca*

.Carlson reportedly grew agitated as the crowd began to jeer and boo. “You’re trying to censor me! This is cancel culture!” he cried. “How dare you! This is loathsome, obviously!”

At publishing time, Carlson had expressed hope for a much warmer reception at the upcoming QatarFest…..

One of the problem is people still trust Tucker, they accept what he says as truthful. And the consequences of that are very high, and they probably won’t affect him in the least. In a heart breaking irony, Tucker’s speech came only a few days after a vicious attack on a Chabad public menorah lighting at Bondi beach in Australia. Two muslim men that Australia had taken in, father and son decided the best way to spend their day was shooting as many Jews as possible. Thankfully the explosives they had taken didn’t go off.

Patrick Bet-David, had a Australian pastor and his wife on just a couple of days ago. He was born in Egypt and lived there till he was about 9 years old I believe. His family was Christian, a minority in a muslim country now that used to be majority Christian. He and his wife have quite the message for Americans about what it’s like to live in a formerly free country that has a large muslim population. I’m going to use several clips from this one video, but I’ll start the video at the relevant points.

First, let’s address Tucker’s claims about you can’t make judgments about people based on their faith. Martin and Millicent Sedra do have experience being Christians in a heavily Muslim place, he grew up being taught in muslim schools in Egypt, so perhaps he knows more than Tucker.

Why doesn’t Egypt take in Falestinians?

And to address the confused Tucker, what about living with muslims, what does the religion call for? Is it compatible with Western culture and values? What should America do about Muslims? From there it goes into why all these New Year’s Eve celebrations are being canceled world wide.

Why do Martin & Millicent need to hire security and German Shepherds to have a Christmas celebration at their church in Australia?

Can the two co-exist?

And a bit about speech, and why it matters, this will be re-visited in a bit. I’m also very very sad Patrick seemed completely unaware of the WhatsApp call from the innocent denizen of Gaza calling his parents on October 7th. And I think that’s where some of the antisemitism, and anti-Israel views come from. There is so much information that normal sane people don’t know. A dishonest media and people that could share the information don’t necessarily want to talk about it. Decent people don’t know any better.

Now let’s talk about one of the reasons why all this matters, why I went into all the deception from Candace and Tuckers. I hope I gave you enough to not take the things they say against Jews and Israel without first considering the tainted source.

There is a growing divide on the right, and I firmly believe it was started by very talented grifter Candace Owens. She hates Jews and Judaism, and that started with her conversion to her husband’s form of Catholicism called SSPX. I also have a hunch she wanted to be more than just Charlie’s friend and is very jealous of Ericka Kirk. She acts like a woman scorned. In recent years she hadn’t been invited to appear at TPUSA events, and I suspect there was good reason for that.

Candace Owens Honors Charlie Kirk’s Legacy By Doing Everything In Her Power To Destroy It*

U.S. — Podcaster and renowned private investigator Candace Owens has vowed to honor Charlie Kirk’s legacy by doing everything in her power to destroy it.

Owens has pledged, for Charlie’s sake, to stop at absolutely nothing to burn down the movement he built, as well as bring pain and harm to every person Charlie ever loved.

“All of my efforts to dismantle Charlie’s organization and hurt the people he cared for, that’s all for him,” said Owens. “As Charlie’s family and friends receive death threat after death threat because of me, I want everyone to know I’m doing it for Charlie. His legacy was one of deep love for Christ, his family, friends, and Turning Point. Which is why I am venomously slandering his family and friends, and will do everything I can to burn Turning Point to the ground.”….

The temperature was turned up and the lid blown off the schism at the beginning of AmFest when Ben Shapiro spoke. Basically he said things that shouldn’t have to be said. Like it’s wrong to attack a grieving widow and the co-workers of a murdered man. But this is apparently where we are. If you are a tiny country about the size of the state of New Jersey and the population of Israel is 9,577,913 as of Monday, December 22, 2025. It is the only Jewish country in the world, and there are about 17,161,100 Jews world wide total. Roughly 0.2% of the world’s population. Why should that tiny country need to explain to the world why they need to prevent the people they gave a falestinian state, and Gaza basically was the two state solution, They elected hamass and they still support their actions on October 7th, and look forward to being able to attack them again. If we have to explain that raping men, women and children is wrong, that cutting a fetus out of a pregnant woman is evil, and decapitating people with garden implements is immoral and putting babies in ovens in front of their parents is depraved, murder is wrong and so is taking hostages, then there is a deeper problem than Israel not doing PR well. When you have college students protesting Israel genocide the day after the attack you should have the intuition to sense something is off. Islamic Republic of Iran Outraged at Pro-Regime Prof’s Demotion in Arkansas. The third one actually they’ve had to get rid of, in middle America Arkansas….A fair amount of the world apparently lacks a moral compass. If things like that have to be explained, I guess it makes sense that Ben apparently needs to explain it’s a bad, naughty, evil, wrong thing to attack innocent people when you have no proof of wrong doing.

One faction of the right, the side with Candace, Tucker and Megyn are framing this as a discussion about canceling voices. Jack Posobiac, someone I quit listening to some time ago came out on stage to assist Megyn as she attempted to attack Ben Shapiro’s speech.

Shapiro, who delivered a speech about charlatans and grifters infiltrating the conservative movement and the need to stand against them, seemingly zapped his entire 3-hour speech into the minds of listeners in just 17 seconds like an advanced alien communicating telepathically. Camera footage, however, confirmed that Shapiro did move his lips in a manner consistent with human speech.

….

Megyn whipped that red herring out from under her dress where she’d hidden it, deftly flipped it to Jack who caught it expertly and chimed in as they denounced Ben who was rather making the point just because you can say something doesn’t mean you should. Ben’s speech wasn’t about censoring voices, it was about using wisdom and discernment on who you let on your platform. And if your guests aren’t going to be honest, to keep credibility maybe you should push back, or question them. Something Tucker certainly didn’t do with the nun with the mustache, the fake historian he claimed was honest and apolitical and Nick Fuentes. Megyn claimed she didn’t want to pick on Candace because she was a young mother, like Meghan Markle…

Oh, well, ok then. Parody of Meghan Markle’s ridiculous show.

Scott Jennings appeared on Batya’s show, and he was asked to comment on it. His comments are true. It’s only 3:34 long.

It’s not about censorship, it’s about what the party will accept. Will we the conservative movement become like the demoncrats and practice intersectionality to the max? Pedophile? Come on in! Transgender wanting to compete in women’s sports and use their bathrooms? Come on in! Pushing drugs and surgery on children? Come on in! Pushing illegal invaders ahead of American veterans? Come on in! Pushing communism? Come on in! Accepting people into the country with values radically different than the Judeo-Christian values our country was founded on and refusing to assimilate? Come on in! The left has embraced and given a platform to every evil degenerate position they can find, is that the way the conservative movement wants to go?

You don’t have to have a crystal ball, a palm reader or any other prophetic device to see where this will go. Just look at the formerly free countries of Australia and Englandistan.

Martin and Millie talked about self defense in Australia, against the muslim horde the government welcomed. Don’t forget a couple of days after the Bondi beach attack, 7 muslim men were arrested on their way to Bondi beach to attack the memorials going on there. They are unrelated to the other two, any guesses as to how many terrorists in Australia? Don’t feel bad, they haven’t a clue either. What are the laws of self defense in Australia?

In the wake of October 7th, Australia allowed the hamass jihadis living in Australia free rein to go out in the streets and make threats against the Jewish community. Synagogues have been fire bombed, people have been attacked, and in front of the iconic Sydney opera house a couple of days after, a mob chanted “Gas the Jews”, Martin and Millie discussed this incident as well. Police allowed the riot, and told the Jewish residents to stay home. Right, rule of law or something….the lone Jewish man there with an Israeli flag was the only one arrested, not the mob.

It’s not like Anthony Albanese didn’t have warnings. Rabbi Eli Schlanger who was murdered by the terrorists at the menorah lighting had asked Albanese to reconsider his rewarding the Hamass terrorists by recognizing a falestinian state.

Hours after Rabbi Eli Schlanger was murdered at Bondi Beach, Sydney during a mass shooting at a Hanukkah event, a letter he had recently sent to Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was revealed. In it, the rabbi made an impassioned plea regarding Australia’s recognition of a Palestinian state and rising antisemitism in the country.

As a rabbi in Sydney, I implore you not to betray the Jewish people and not God Himself,” wrote Rabbi Schlanger. “This land was given by God to Abraham, then to his son Isaac, and then to Jacob, to be the eternal homeland of the Jewish people. Throughout history, Jews have been torn from their land again and again by leaders who are now remembered with contempt in the pages of history.”

The rabbi wrote the letter following Australia’s recognition of a Palestinian state and amid rising antisemitism in the country. “Today, you have an opportunity to stand on the side of truth and justice,” he continued. “By reversing this act of betrayal, you will not only honor the Jewish people and our heritage, but also stand with the word of God. If you choose this path, you will be welcomed home with open arms and even a warm Shabbat meal. I bless you in advance for having the courage to do what is right and to stand firm against this act of apostasy. In hope and prayer, Rabbi Eli Schlanger.”

The terrorists were known to the government, the Australian version of “The FBI was watching them”. In addition to that, the Mossad warned the Albanese government ahead of time when most likely the attack would take place, and where. And the Albanese government did??? Oh right, the government that allowed mobs to chant gas the Jews did nothing.

Bondi Terror Attack Survivor Says Police Were More Concerned With This Than the Terrorists

Several points on this one.

Bondi survivor Vanessa Miller

Bondi survivor Vanessa Miller was separated from her three-year-old daughter and pinned down by gunfire. She told

@Erin_Molan

that she tried to grab the gun of a critically injured officer to suppress the terrorists, but other officers—rather than returning fire themselves—held her back.

These police officers were hiding behind a car… I tried to grab one of their guns. Another one grabbed me and said ‘no.’ I hope they are hearing this. You are weak. You could have saved so many more people’s lives. They were just watching this all happen, holding me back.”

In addition to that, remember the clip of the jihadis at the Sydney opera house chanting “gas the Jews?” You really should see this video that goes with this one.

If the police had heeded the pleas of Australian Jews, and arrested, investigated & charged or deported the “Gas the Jews” marchers, 15 innocents would still be alive, and Bondi would still be famous as an iconic beach—not as a massacre site. But they chose to pander to jihadis.

In addition to that, the police appear to have frozen during the attack. You know, the police that will come protect you after the Australian government confiscated all the guns to keep everyone safe. Those police. Here’s the Image That Says It All About the Australian Police Response to the Bondi Terror Attack

Australia Proves Gun Control Doesn’t Work

Because you know, diversity is our strength and can’t say mean things to the muslims. So, the Australian government has a plan! Crack down on free speech, and implement more gun control in the gun free utopia of Australia. And the brave (if it’s an unarmed civilian) police have already arrested someone for saying hurty words to the failed PM Albanese who should have resigned last week. And I get the feeling the Australians have about had it with the useless piece of schiff.

What’s it like living in the Muslim controlled country of Englandistan? Similar, just further down the road.

Islamophobiacs at It Again in U.K.

New Definition ‘Worse than Feared,’ MP Warns

A new definition of “Islamophobia,” slated for publication in the U.K. this week, has triggered widespread alarm among free speech campaigners. A leaked version of the definition revealed that the government had rebranded “Islamophobia,” a phrase used to silence criticism of Muslims, Islam, and Islamism, as “anti-Muslim hostility.”

Leading secular and religious free speech advocates and parliamentarians warned that the alternative terminology of “anti-Muslim hostility” could still serve as a de facto blasphemy law, stifling legitimate criticism of Islam, and rendering such discussions as an arrestable offense in the minds of law enforcement officials intimidated by Muslim extremists in the U.K.

This is what it looks like when your country is being conquered by Islam bit by bit. There are already places in the U.S. Historic Minneapolis Bar Closes, and Guess What It’ll Be Converted Into Now

If you were wondering what life looks like under Islam, take a glimpse at places like Dearborn and Minneapolis. In Dearborn, the Islamic call to prayer wakes you up in the early morning hours, every single day. If you complain about it, your city council and mayor will tell you that you don’t belong there. In parts of Europe, there are “no-go zones” where native citizens aren’t allowed to travel.

And in Minneapolis, a bar that was almost 120 years old is now being closed and converted into a mosque. Remember — alcohol is forbidden in Islam, so it only makes sense that in cities with large Islamic populations, drinking will eventually be banned.

Tulsi Gabbard Reveals the Greatest Threat to Freedom in the US

Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, issued a warning about what she described as the growing threat of Islamism in the United States, at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest. Arguing that its ideology clashes with the principles of the U.S. Constitution, she said the problem can only be confronted by electing leaders committed to defending Americans’ God-given rights above all else.

There is a threat to our freedom that hasn’t been talked about enough,” she began. “And it is the greatest near and long term threat to both our freedom and our security, and that is the threat of Islamist ideology. It is propagated by people who not only do not believe in freedom, their fundamental ideology is antithetical to the foundation that we find in our Constitution and Bill of Rights, which is that our Creator endowed upon is inalienable rights — the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”

Why aren’t we talking about that? Because a crazed jealous deranged grifter is busy throwing tennis ball suspects for Charlie Kirk’s murder. She throws one tennis ball, the Jews, then another tennis ball, the Egyptians, then another tennis ball, people in maroon shirts. One after the other, subscribe to her podcast, send her money and she’ll find the real killer. Nothing about the threat of Islam.

Then there’s Tucker, he’s busy praising Islam from TPUSA’s stage.

Tucker Carlson: “Attacking Millions of Americans Because They’re Muslims, It’s Disgusting.”

Charlie Kirk: “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”

Charlie Kirk was a brave warrior who was never afraid to challenge the Muslim persecution of Christians. One of his tweets that outraged leftists was that, “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”

Tucker Carlson however took the stage at TPUSA’s AmFest to denounce criticism of Islam.

Charlie Kirk: “Islam is the sword the left is using to slit the throat of America.”

Tucker Carlson: “Attacking millions of Americans because they’re Muslims, it’s disgusting.”

Tucker is rejecting Charlie Kirk’s defense of America.

Tucker is a parasite using his hosts (TPUSA) event to make himself stronger.

Megyn Kelly is just dancing around throwing those red herrings in the air about this being about free speech and no one can tell her what to say. You can say it, but should you? You claim you don’t want to call out behavior, but then do so if it’s someone with a platform who doesn’t have followers that might physically attack you or your family, so.

Who did Charlie look to?

Who Charlie Kirk look to.

So with that, I will give you Ben Shapiro’s speech, which shouldn’t be controversial at all. It is bold, and as Scott Jennings said, necessary. We just finished Hanukkah, and when I heard Ben’s speech it just dropped my jaw, I just know, I just know Judah Macabee smiled. And this is the thing, I will never be in a position to pick up a rifle and fight with the Golani brigade, I will never work with Mossad, so what can I do to help fight the rise of antisemitism and by extension the one Jewish country? Maybe I can share information, maybe I can answer questions well when asked, I can try to do what G-d put in front of me. Because I do believe we are again in Hasmonean times, and circumstances. I believe everyone has some sort of sword they can use to be a person on the side of good. But we must be like the Macabees and willing to use it, and then as they did, leave the results up to G-d.

If a column linked has a * at the end of it, it’s satire, The Babylon Bee. But sometimes it’s so close to reality I figured perhaps I should mark it.

But Ben’s speech? Pure Israeli coffee, the best!

Hippies Then and Now

I was texting back and forth with a good friend of mine the other day when she mentioned a book she was reading. Hippie War, Battle for the Harrisonville Square, also on Amazon. Huh. As it turns out, one of the officers murdered was her cousin’s husband. Ah. Then she started telling me some of what was in the book, she said the “woke” of today is the “hippies” of yesterday. Really? Tell me more. Now somethings already made sense, like ecology and earth day. The left worships the creation and not the creator. But the more she shared, the more I thought “I want to read this book”. She said it was a fast read, not a real in depth book. It’s not in depth like a history, science or medical book, but the guy did do a lot of research. It also doesn’t hurt that he was a local boy at the time this happened, 1972. See a big city writer did a book on the topic in 1974 a couple of years after it happened. His deep investigation seemed to involved going out and drinking and smoking pot with the Hippies. The towns people meanwhile had more than their fill of the mainstream media. The incident drew attention nation wide and as far away as Paris, as in France. The media including papers from the nearest big city, which was Kansas City, in lockstep portrayed the peaceful little town as backwards, unenlightened, cows roaming the streets, etc. The big city writer was a member of the “New Journalism” trend. That means as long as the story ends up in the same place, you can make up conversations, add or remove people or events all to make the story “better”. So in other words, pretty much like all the media today, though back then few were doing it. But big city writer was one of them that did.

I’m giving you teacup versions of some of this, I don’t want to spoil the book, but tell enough for you to see the similarities.

So what did happen? In 1972 the hippie movement was in full swing, and little Harrisonville a mainly agricultural bedroom city of Kansas City had an infestation. I’m not going to cover a lot in case you want to read the book, but to give you and idea the hippies had basically made the square a nightmare to go visit or shop. The square was full of merchants at the time, clothing, drug stores, a sears store, hardware, jewelry, soda fountains, lawyers, pretty much everything. In the center of it is the courthouse built in 1844. It’s beautiful. The hippies would play frisbee in the streets not allowing traffic to flow on the series of one way streets, they would cat call and make lewd comments to women and girls shopping, they hassled the old men that liked to sit in the sun on the park benches and visit, they had sex in the bushes around or near the courthouse. In general, the merchants and everyone else was more than a little tired of them. Any attempts to get them to try to fit into polite society (be respectful of others) was met with things like “it’s my right to be in the street” (blocking traffic so that it backs up and people can’t make their doctors appointment) or something along those lines. This can be seen today in the number of conservative speakers that show up on a college campus to share a different view point than that of the college indoctrination team (professors). They are shouted down, prevented from speaking even if they were paid to be there, as the little vermin cry it’s their first amendment right to bang garbage can lids to prevent some one else from speaking. Basically the hippies regarded anything they wanted to do as their right to do it. They also opposed the Viet Nam war, and were totally on board with the green agenda. They may not have known much of anything, but they proclaimed it very loudly.

Law enforcement, well, since the hippies hated them they tried to make law enforcement officers miserable at every turn. Law enforcement hated them right back. Then you add in pressure from the community for them to do something, it wasn’t safe for decent folks any more. And it wasn’t. Law enforcement started trying to crack down, which the hippies hated. The merchants really hated the hippies at this point.

So what happened? A hippie named Bucket O’Chum “snapped”. He took his M-1 carbine and killed two police officers, one of them being my friend’s cousin-in-law. She said he was one of the nicest guys you’d ever want to meet. The other officer had only been on the job a month and was only working that day because another officer had wanted to switch shifts. After he put several rounds into both officers who had been standing and talking to 3 other men on the square, he headed up the road a short walk to the County jail, just a block or so away. On the way he shot a man getting out of his truck to drop off some dry cleaning. That man later died. The sheriff and his family lived at the front of the jail. They were sitting down to supper. The sheriff heard the shots, and went outside. He was shot in the should and leg for his efforts, he made it back inside his home and got his wife to safety. Bucket O’Chum was seen trying to open the door to the old age home located near the county jail. In a great mercy, I believe it was either that day, or the day before the old age home (as I believe it was called in the book) had decided to keep it’s exterior doors locked because of the trouble the hippies were causing on the square. So after he couldn’t get in there, he went to the jail. After shooting the sheriff and being denied the opportunity to kill innocent elderly citizens he proceed to what I would argue should have been his step #1. He put the gun in his mouth and killed himself. In the doorway of the old age home.

In the aftermath, the media descended. Hard to believe isn’t it? That the media can descend any lower than they already are? /snark font

As I’ve said, the media was horribly unfair. The town clammed up, the hippies didn’t. The media has leaned left for years and this occasion was no different. The law enforcement felt like their hands were tied as they were being blamed for the whole mess. So they treaded lightly. And the hippies were there in full bloom. Continuing to hassle citizens, block roads etc after the 3 day curfew ended. And then, then an amazing thing happened. The people had enough. On a Friday night about 150 farmers, townsmen, merchants and just every day citizens met on the square that night. The patrolled the square and the hippies that decided to proclaim loudly they had a right to be there and act however they wanted were politely invited to leave. With an ax handle if need be. Hippies cruising the square in their cars were told to go away. Responses of “its my right to be here” got the driver a butt kicking. And I’m guessing some of those old farm boys know how to do that just fine. The citizens patrol lasted 3 nights, and then it was over. There was much soul searching which I won’t go into, a wonderful letter was written by a WWII veteran named John Leach about “Who’s Fault”, and it was good. He brought the parents of the hooligans into focus, and the fact these kids didn’t work. Yes, they lived at home off their parents. Some in their 20s.

Here’s an aerial photo of the path Bucket O’Chum took if you want to see how close together things are located.

So lets look at some of the ideology involved. The following are mostly quotes from the book, in italics. My comments aren’t.

I think it was within a week of the murders that the city leaders tried to have a meeting with the hippies. They tried to explain to the hippies why and which of their actions were the problems.

The city representatives spoke about the hippies’ vulgar language, urinating in the bushes, sex in cars, and blocking access to businesses on the square. The aldermen suggested that hippies should congregate somewhere other than the square. The notion that they should leave the square did not sit well with the hippies. Edwin Allen protested, “That’s being discriminatory! If we want to be there, we have a God-Given right.” Allen also claimed that anyone complaining about the hippies being bad for business was being, “discriminatory.” Alderman Hacker told the hippies, “If all of you were working you might have time to relate these experiences that are troublesome and not right. Why don’t you have a job?”

Shortly after the shooting, F. Russell Millin, chairman of the Missouri Law Enforcement Assistance Council, (the LEAC), reached out to Chief Davis and a couple of other aldermen and asked if they wanted his group to come to town and help calm things down with the hippies.

The “help” they sent was a psychologist and a doctor of economics and social studies.

Dr. Jan Roosa (who spoke to the hippies using “far out” or “out of sight”, typical hippie jargon of the time) His partner and good friend Dr. Frank “Gene” Wagner

Wagner, an academic liberal sporting longer hair, had led the first anti-war march in Kansas City nine years before.

Oh goodie, an absolutely neutral pair to carry on the negotiations!

They sure missed something. Their “outsider,” a professor of some reputation from UMKC,quoted Mao Tse Tung as one of the wisest men in history. He used one of Chairman Mao’s sayings as a guideline to achieve the desired goals of the community. After the meeting, Wagner was said to have held court outside the building, preaching to all who would listen regarding the criminality of the Vietnam war, the benefits of communism, and the ridiculousness of Christianity. To say that these views did not go over well with the audience would be an understatement.

By the end of the doctors time, even they were beginning to realize the hippies didn’t want to find solutions, they wanted to pitch a hissy fit and have everything go their way. The more things change…

I’m really beginning to dislike hippies. Generally, the talk centers around their wants, their rights, what’s wrong with the town, and what a bum rap their getting…They are so sure that only they have the right answer (to everything.) In many ways they are much more conservative than many of the adult members of the community.

Still not so much on the neutral I think.

The hippies gave a list of suggestions to the doctors for the community leaders to enact.

Hippie Demands

1.Openness with respect to black—white relations

2.A commitment to the peace movement

3.A knowledge of ecology and the problems of pollution

4.Recognition of the social-economic-political challenges that were taking place in the larger society

5.A reasonable explanation of our reason or “purpose” in being involved in the communities’ affairs.

Seriously? This is what the hippies think will fix things?

Suggestions

Jobs without restrictions regarding hairstyle and mode of dress. The community should come to realize that they stereotype all long-haired youth as revolutionaries, indigent and lazy when such is not the case.

Businesses, particularly those on the square should realize that it is not the presence of the “long hairs” on the square that is effecting [sic] business as much as it is changes in the economic structure of the community.

Training and screening of police. Insistence that the police get to know the “long hairs” and not apply a double standard toward them with respect to enforcement of the law, relative to other members of the community.

Schools should overcome the traditional approach to teaching and adopt courses which are more relevant to the age. One quotation by a member of the group was “how can they say that Columbus discovered America when he was met at the beach by Indians.” They requested the introduction of courses on ecology, law, justice, communication …[unreadable] … and economics into the school curriculum. They were quite interested in the techniques whereby a group negotiates for changes in the community.

They requested that the police not be armed with riot guns and that they refrain from making threatening comments to the “long hairs.” They commented that one of the police sergeants had threatened them with a “shoot-out” on the square.

So basically it doesn’t matter what the employer wants in an employee, the hippies will dress, behave and stink as they choose. And give them jobs anyway. Because that’s how the world works to the left. I notice they beat Lori Lightweight and Alvin Bragg in demanding police be disarmed. They wanted law enforcement’s hands tied down to the ineffective level. Much like you see antifa and blm attack peaceful conservative rally goers these days and the police don’t intervene.

The the doctors met with the community leaders.

Throughout their description of the meeting, the writers of the report continually reference how they intellectually bested the mayor and City Council members by using certain mental techniques, as well as never falling into “traps” that the council members would try to lure them. Traps such as agreeing that if the hippies just followed certain rules the situation would improve.

Yeah, the doctors are completely neutral…insert face palm here.

Here’s the list of things the community leaders wanted. Anything different from today? Just like today parents and many community leaders in sane cities don’t want CRT or gender grooming taught in schools, in 1972 community leaders had things they thought the hippies should do, or not as the case may be.

Show regard for other members of the community and not harass them regarding their conservative way of life. “You drive a car, and these damn hippies tell you your [sic] polluting the air.”

Not make opportunities for themselves by the use of threats to other members of the community.

Talk to the members of the council or members of the school board not to the young people of the town if the “street people” wished to bring about changes in the town. The mayor stated that he was an easy man to talk to and that the young adults had failed to avail themselves of his office.

The young adults should develop a self-respect, having done this, the responsible citizens would be willing to give them a chance … [unreadable] …not insist upon “starting at the top.” At least one member insisted that under no circumstances would he be willing to offer a job to the “gang on the square.” He viewed such a move as a sell-out. Others however said that they would provide some of the group with jobs.

Meet the norms of the jobs as defined by the employer; quite a few of the council members insisted that while they did not object to long hair, their customers did and as a result, it was impossible to provide them with jobs if they insisted upon dressing like a “bunch of hippies”.

Stop blocking traffic in the square, conduct themselves in an orderly fashion, not molest the young girls, and not block the steps to the courthouse.

There is nothing unreasonable in there.

When discussing the citizen’s vigilance committee:

The committee’s intention was not to seriously injure anyone. They simply wanted to make sure the hippies, particularly the 10 – 20 “hard core” leaders, were removed from the Harrisonville Square. Leach would later admit, “We realize that this wasn’t exactly the American way of doing things. But it was the last resort. We’d tried everything else, and it hadn’t worked.”

Summarizing the actions of the Vigilance Committee later, Sheriff Bill Gough said:

… the people had enough and put an end to it. There was a gathering of citizens – about 150 of them. They broke up the hanging around on the square. They did some harassing of their own. But I saw no violence. It’s been pretty peaceful since the people made their point. When people get enough of anything, they put an end to it. They’ve (the hippies) scattered. Some are still here but they don’t gather at the courthouse anymore.

I bolded a couple of things, not the author. And this is one of my points. When people have had enough, they figure something out. They communicate with each other, they gather information and they find a way. That’s why there is such an effort to shut down free speech. That’s why the covid lock downs were so important to them, to sever normal community relationships or weaken the bonds. Strong communities come together, then they work together.

Soon after the shootings and later in time, many of those involved were asked a version of that same question. Some local authorities seemed to believe that if something had been done more quickly, the situation would not have escalated to the point that it did. Sheriff Gough said, “My personal opinion is that it never would have happened if we hadn’t let it go so far.” G.M. Allen voiced a similar sentiment when asked how the city would handle a comparable situation in the future, answered “We might not let it go so long before trying to put it down. Most people had the idea that if we ignored it, it would go away.”

Both Sheriff Gough and G.M. Allen admitted that authorities should have acted earlier to quell the undesirable actions by the hippies on the square. In any situation of authority, it is always easier to stop behaviors when they first appear as opposed to trying to stop them after the violator has been allowed the freedom to take these actions for a longer period of time.

I heard a snippet of a podcast, listed below the 2:18 section on burn out. Yes, the evil that is in our country has gone on for a very long time. Demoncrats have been interfering in elections for years, the CIA, ATF and FIB are corrupt and anti-American.

Everyone knew before the elections Joe Biden was taking money from China, and Hunter’s laptop really was a thing. The swamp runs deep and wide. Yes, it’s gone on too long. I blame the media for this as there was only a few people telling the truth and Tucker Carlson was one of the most fearless. So FOX in an effort to out-do Inbev (they bought Anheuser-Busch, makers of the beer formerly known as Bud Light) decided to crash their own network and can Tucker. Most popular show on cable news, ever. But regardless of the mainstream media, we still have U.S. We have each other. And we, we can speak the truth. From today’s Daily Dose,

Chutzpah!

The first thing you must know before anything else applies: Truth demands chutzpah.

If what you are doing is the right thing to do, there will be others who will ridicule, taunt and attempt in every way to intimidate you. That is the way the world works.

If you can’t handle it, if you can’t ignore them as you would ignore flies on a camping trip, don’t imagine you can take a single step forward.

Only once you’ve passed the chutzpah test, only then can you begin to grow.
