I, for one, will never visit San Francisco again. I will not even take a flight that will touch down at the San Francisco airport to change planes. If I did, I’d be supporting the San Francisco tax base which is used to support criminal illegal aliens.
I’m not just disgusted by the trial of Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, 45, acquitted of murder and involuntary manslaughter charges, as well as assault with a deadly weapon, I am sickened by it.
Jurors convicted the Mexican citizen of being a felon in possession of a firearm, which could bring a three-year sentence. He admitted to killing Kate Steinle as she and her father walked along the San Francisco wharf together.
To read the actual reasons Kate Steinle is dead (including violations by more than one department of the federal government), go here to read the lawsuit filed by the Steinles against numerous government departments whose responsibility it was to keep her safe.
In essence, the City of San Francisco (and the complicit State of California) have created an unsafe environment for American citizens so they can provide special privileges for illegal aliens under the false flag California chooses to call “Justice.”
It used to be a beautiful city. Wells Fargo Bank was one of my clients during the 1980s and I spent quite a bit of time there. Wells Fargo was one of the best banks in the country at that time. Today, they are caught in criminal credit card violations for which no one goes to prison… a reflection of the attitudes of the federal regulators and the City of San Francisco where Wells Fargo’s corporate headquarters resides.
Keep in mind, throughout history evil has always imploded on itself.
Did you know that 22% of federal prisoners are suspected illegal immigrants? Do you realize it costs American taxpayer citizens $87.61 per day (or $31,977.65 per year) to pay for the prison upkeep of just one criminal? It totals hundreds of billions of dollars… dollars you work for every day.
From 2010 to 2014, ICE released a 30,558 illegal criminal aliens from prison. Did you know that after their release 121 of them were charged with homicide? Sounds like a small number by comparison to the 30,558… tell that to the families of the 121 who were murdered.
We hear a lot about how special the “Dreamers” are and how important it is for them to be able to continue their educations in the United States. “Dreamers” are illegal aliens who go to school under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. They are so grateful to be studying at American universities and colleges, 2,139 DACA recipients have lost their permits to remain in America due to their criminal activity.
Hispanics aren’t the only ones tearing our nation apart.
Black consumers are being told by Black Lives Matter to buy Christmas gifts only from black-owned businesses. I guess that means that all whites should not buy from any black business… isn’t the Black Lives Matter message “Shop by color”? So if you are racially sensitive and if you’re white, stay out of black communities. Don’t buy anything from them because Blacks don’t want to do business with you. They want business from fellow blacks. I’ve always supported blacks supporting black communities (though not quite like this).
Colin Kaepernick (of the San Francisco football team – where else?) began the trendy “one knee” stance while the pre-football game national anthem played. It shows total disregard for our military and the men and women who have died defending America. It shows total disregard for the American people who love their country and their flag. Then many overpaid and under-educated teammates joined him in his protest – and NFL football ratings have gone down ever since. I will do all I can to help the trend… down, down, down for the NFL and Roger Goodell, the NFL Commissioner who handled this fiasco (and others) so badly but thinks he is worth a $50 million per year (plus medical benefits for him and his family) for life.
You can’t make this stuff up!
The men who think a football field is the appropriate place for political protests won’t really feel the result of their behavior until it’s time to negotiate their next contract. Until then, their ability to run with or kick or pass or receive a football and get paid millions of dollars for doing so makes them feel they are making powerful political statements. In reality, all they are doing is ruining the game and those who finance it: the fans – most of whom love their country.
It’s fascinating to watch multi-millionaires demonstrate because they are victims!
The economy of the old Soviet Union was never strong and corruption, always present in big governments which must always grow as the population increases, made the USSR vulnerable to corruption.
Communist China faces the same problem (even after Mao killed over 65 million people to implement communism… that form of government stupid American university professors teach their uninformed students is wonderful; those student become violent in their support of it; they – and their hero, Bernie Saunders – call it socialism but even Karl Marx admitted socialism is a high-speed railroad to communism). Stalin killed 40 million Russians to get communism implemented. Doesn’t that sound like a wonderful form of government?
Under communism the government represents total power. It is huge and, as we have learned since President Trump began cleaning the swam, the corruption runs very deep indeed in America’s theoretically non-communist government.
My use of the word “theoretically” merely means that too many people still believe they are free and are living in a republic (if educated) or a democracy (if uneducated). In truth, however, government considers itself the only important, dominant element of American life. Most of those who “serve” the people as elected officials consider themselves elites who reside high above the rest of us in their own mythical world of power and corruption… a communist attitude.
There is no better example of government gone wild and out of control than the San Francisco trial of Jose Ines Garcia Zarate for the murder of Kate Steinle. Zarate was clearly guilty of murder – at the very least, manslaughter. The comrades of San Francisco found him innocent and because he has already spent 29 months in confinement he will probably see little, if any, time behind bars in California.
What happened in San Francisco is a small indication of the total lack of moral values, the total lack of appreciation of what it means to be born an American citizen, and shows a lack of appreciation for citizenship that results in a mindless devaluation of our nation.
For example, the Millennials who flood the streets and willingly resort to violence if it means preventing a conservative from speaking an opinion with which they disagree think we should have open borders. Their university professors haven’t gotten around to telling them that without borders there is no nation (the professors – men who will never be recognized for their intelligence – probably don’t know.). One of the things required to establish a nation is a clear statement of its borders. In other words, if America has no borders, there is no America.
Gee, you don’t suppose that’s part of the plan, do you?
The dumbed-down generations (at least two of them… maybe three) have reached a point in American society where truth has no value. Without truth there is no freedom, just political correctness where one group of powerful people can tell the rest of society what they may and may not think and say because if you disagree with them you are guilty of hate speech. In Great Britain you can go to jail for hate speech. In reality, the only hate speech being spewed through society comes from the mouths of the politically correct and powerful elitists who think themselves better able to run your life than you are.
It is reminiscent of the old Soviet Union.
According to Gorbachev’s Prime Minister, Nikolai Ryzhkov, the “moral [nravstennoe] state of the society” in 1985 was its “most terrifying” feature: “[We] stole from ourselves, took and gave bribes, lied in the reports, in newspapers, from high podiums, wallowed in our lies, hung medals on one another. And all of this – from top to bottom and from bottom to top.”
It sounds like America, 2017, doesn’t it? It reminds me of the $3 trillion Donald Rumsfeld announced was missing from the Defense Department in 2001… he didn’t know what had happened to all that money – but they were looking for it. It was never found… and Rumsfeld made his statement the day before 9/11/2001 so it got little attention as Americans sat in disbelief over the loss of over 3,000 fellow citizens.
It also reminds me of Representative Maxine Waters who just a few days ago told her black audience to remember that Congressman John Conyers is a friend to women… an icon in the black community. Of course, Waters hasn’t had a cogent thought in her head for… possibly her entire life. As Gorbachev’s Prime Minister, Nikolai Ryzhkov, said just before the fall of the USSR, “[We] stole from ourselves, took and gave bribes, lied in the reports, in newspapers, from high podiums, wallowed in our lies, hung medals on one another.” He could not have defined the actions of Waters (and other politicians) more successfully had he tried.
We free illegal alien murderers in San Francisco, while Michigan voters elect John Conyers to office so he can sexually insult and intimidate women for the 50 years he’s been in Congress. Even died-in-the-wool liberal Cokie Roberts admitted on television that all women in Washington knew better than to get on an elevator with Conyers,
We have so many women coming forward to accuse Senator Al Franken of Minnesota of putting his hands where they do not belong that it’s hard to keep an accurate count.
Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze made equally painful comments about lawlessness and corruption dominating the Soviet Union in its final days. During the winter months of 1984-85, he told Gorbachev that “Everything is rotten. It has to be changed.”
“Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong,” Frantz Fanon said in his 1952 book Black Skin, White Masks (originally published in French as Peau Noire, Masques Blancs). “When they are presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is extremely uncomfortable, called cognitive dissonance. And because it is so important to protect the core belief, they will rationalize, ignore and even deny anything that doesn’t fit with the core belief.”
If that doesn’t define victims, liberal progressives and most Millennials, I don’t know what does.
During their final days as a world power, the Soviet Union allowed cognitive dissonance to rule its better judgment… as so many Americans are doing in 2017. The handwriting on the wall was pretty clear for Gorbachev. The Soviet economy was failing. They did none of the necessary things to save their economy. In 2017, the handwriting on the wall is pretty clear for the American people.
The economy is failing. The number of closed retail outlets tripled this year over last. Read this article. Don’t confuse a climbing stock market with a successful economy. President Trump is doing all he can to save it, but he is having to crawl over the body blocks of liberal progressives (both Republican and Democrat) to do so.
The people and the Congress do none of the necessary things to save their economy. Why? Go re-read the definition of cognitive dissonance. That’s why. We have a classic fight going on between fear-motivated people who want government to take care of them and who willingly pay the price of lost freedom to get that care (evil), versus those who value freedom and the self-responsibility it requires (good).
As Eduard Shevardnadze said, “Everything is rotten. It has to be changed.”
As I would say it, “There is no Rule of Law in America today.”
No one listened then; no one is listening in America now. The primary reason? Cognitive dissonance.
Kate Steinle was murdered by her government. The State of California, the City of San Francisco and the federal government have one primary responsibility as legitimate governments: Provide for the safety of citizens. They did not. How legitimate then are they as governments?
California is so focused on making sure illegal aliens have access to the benefits people like Kate Steinle worked hard and paid taxes to provide, they forgot about her safety and the safety of all other citizens… and tourists. I invite you to join me in avoiding any kind of California vacation or doing business with any online California-based businesses.
Why would you want to add to the tax base of a government that so abuses American citizens?
Such comments as those from Soviet leaders Nikolai Ryzhkov and Eduard Shevardnadze a mere half-dozen years before the failure of what Reagan termed “the Evil Empire” should cause chills down the spines of any American reading the quotes for in many ways our government has become “the Evil Empire.”
The words spoken by Soviet politicians just before their fall are a mirror image of this nation’s social and political disorder as I write these words.
Say a prayer that President Trump will be able to succeed… and another prayer that the Never Trumpers like Senators Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Corey Gardner (R-CO), John McCain (R-AZ), Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and all the others are in the final days of their treasonous service.
You might also want to say a prayer that McConnell wakens Senators so they begin passing some of the 300 Bills approved and sent to them by the House of Representatives – laws which have been ignored by McConnell, McCain, Gardner, Corker, Thune… one of which is Kate’s Law.
