Memorial Day has passed and some on the left have made a mockery of it as expected. Probably most prominent, is Tampon Tim Walz’s devotion to George Floyd, who was murdered six years ago by a police officer and his dance to said devotion. It is difficult for me to comprehend this level of stupidity or vanity. And to ignore those who actually surrendered their lives to defend this country only adds to my anger.
First, George Floyd was not murdered! His autopsy confirmed that he died from a drug overdose while resisting arrest by an honest decent police officer who was only attempting to subdue him. That man, Derek Chauvin, is currently in prison serving twenty-two-plus years after being convicted of “murder” by a radical leftist court. How can anyone be convicted of a murder that never occurred, I ask?
Floyd had a long criminal record. At the time, he was accused of attempting to pass a counterfeit twenty-dollar bill and failed to comply with law enforcement instructions and had to be taken down. Had he complied, the outcome would have been entirely different. On the other hand, during his service Chauvin had received several commendations including a medal of valor. While in prison, he was stabbed twenty-plus times with a shank by a fellow prisoner, but survived.
Did Officer Chauvin lean on Floyd’s neck longer than necessary? As someone who has been involved in similar incidents, I can only attest to the fact that stress and adrenalin are factors when attempts to arrest are met with resistance. It is my understanding that Floyd refused to enter the unit vehicle and began struggling and was then placed on the ground. At six feet, four inches, he would have been imposing to say the least.
The incident caused nationwide riots and demonstrations throughout the summer and resulted in enormous damage, injuries and some deaths. It also resulted in a suit awarding a twenty-seven-million-dollar settlement to Floyd’s family although I assume that ambulance chasers got a good chunk.
Meanwhile, the midterms are creating significant surprises. Trump’s endorsements of those candidates opposing Swamp creatures have created anger and frustration of many in his party, mostly other creatures. I firmly believe that if John Thune was running this time, he’d be gone too. We desperately need a genuine Republican Party back to support the president.
Speaking of genuine, Texas Democrat candidate James Talarico is a genuine enigma. He’s already earned the nickname “Talafreako” due to his alleged platform indicating that God supports abortion and there are actually several genders. According to Talarico, transgender children are “special” and have his love. He is also avowed vegan in a state which depends on exportation of meat products. The fact that he won the nomination is of deep concern for me.
The Iran conflict remains at the top of the news. Frankly, I’m becoming impatient with the progress and I believe most Americans feel the same. Trump continues to predict an “end soon” and it’s obvious that the Iranian leadership has no intention of capitulating. As much as I dread it, the only solution is a full assault and surrender by the Iranian government. As the midterms approach, Americans are impatient and grumping over high fuel prices and that could definitely affect the November election.
Demonstrations outside an ICE facility in New Jersey have been ongoing for several days and show no signs of ending. Several protesters have been arrested for threats against not only the agents, but their families as well. Only recently has its governor authorized local and state police to assist federal agents in the protests. Those protesting are claiming poor conditions for those in custody who are allegedly being starved and mistreated. My solution would be to allow several protest leaders to enter and determine that such is not the case. And I wonder if these paid protesters are paying their income tax?
Should the protests continue after said determination, I would employ a rather simple solution to disperse the protesters . . . fire hoses.
