MINNEAPOLIS, MN– The New York Post reported that black-owned businesses at the intersection where George Floyd died in May 2020, now known as George Floyd Square, are pleading for, among other things, help from police. [Tweet] Black merchants near the once-thriving corner of 38th Street and Chicago Avenue said police have abandoned the blocked-off intersection, creating a dangerous autonomous zone that has seen crime spoke and business evaporate. Owner of Smoke in the Pit restaurant said: “The city left me in danger.” The merchant, who asked to be identified only as Alexander W, for fear of reprisals, added: “They locked us up on here and left us behind.

Black Lives Matter! Black businesses don't. Businesses represent Black self sufficiency and Capitalism. All good BLM Blacks know that you can't have that . Successful Black businesses destroy the Black oppression narrative. Right now, the only one's oppressing Blacks are other Blacks who have a vested interest in the racial issues continuing.

Be patient, that reparations check is in the mail. Chances are you won't be smart enough to use it to move to Idaho. The guilty verdict on Chauvin was supposed to end the "crime spoke."

John Nolte's quote is to the point: “But Democrats have no interest in helping anyone other than themselves and if every blue city in America has to be burned to the ground in order to hide the fact that Democrats cannot handle the most basic tasks of governing (and nothing is more basic than keeping people safe), they will see to it that those cities burn.” Rather than lose political power, Democrats would rather preside over hollowed out, dysfunctional cities. Their policies lead not to prosperity but to ruin, and approximately half of the population vote for such policies. The coming breakpoint is not far away.

A lot of people want the benefits of an orderly, law-abiding community but don't want to do any of the labor. For black businesses to thrive in this area they need safe, clean streets, well-mannered customers, and support for free enterprise. They have none of that.

A lawless zone filled with senseless violent crime, no possibility of economic activity, none of the amenities that are produced in a civilized place, and residents pleading for handouts so they can exist on a basic level. In other words they transformed the area into Africa in microcosm, a model for all to emulate.

Democrats claimed that they wanted to fundamentally remake America. In Minneapolis they are remaking the city to look like Somolia so that the current residents feel more at home with lawlessness, riots, crime, murders, and not open businesses. Next on Minneapolis street: warlord or control by gang members.

The existence of autonomous zones violates so many laws regarding freedom of association and commerce. Governments are in existence to enforce laws and preserve the freedom of citizens to come and go as safely as possible. Putting up piles of crap in the middle of the street to "honor" a dead thug, pitching a sign and claiming territory that does not belong to you, is against the law and needs to be dealt with. If the citizens of liberal cities keep voting for the kind of government that allows deadbeat criminals to interfere with businesses and even traveling on city streets, then it is on them at this point.

Inflation Might Bring Down
Biden: Republicans, Take Heed

Posted by Hazymac 4/27/2021 7:41:38 AM Post Reply
A specter is haunting the Democratic Party — the specter of inflation. Inflation is an insidious tax that robs the poor and the middle class. It favors the U.S. government, the world’s biggest debtor, because the government expects to pay back its creditors in Monopoly money. It crushes the real earnings of the vast majority of American households and destroys their savings. That’s what the Democratics are up to. And that’s what might bring them down–just as 12% inflation brought down Jimmy Carter in 1980. It’s time for Republicans to cry “Thief!” and hold President Joe Biden to account for the disaster that has already begun to befall America.

COLUMBUS, OH – The Chair of the Congressional Black Caucus has joined hordes of untrained armchair quarterbacks, in order to render her opinion on police procedure after the officer-involved shooting of Ma’Khia Bryant. In Columbus, Ohio on April 20, 2021, Officer Nicholas Reardon had to make a split second decision to intervene as Ma’Khia Bryant rushed toward her potential victim with a knife, after ignoring lawful orders to “get down.” Reardon fired his pistol, striking Bryant and ending the attack. Aid was rendered at the scene, but Bryant was later pronounced dead at a nearby hospital. Neighbors reported that Bryant “was in full attack mode” and also said:

Joe Biden’s climate agenda, which he announced this week, is such a violation of everything it means to live in a free country that it actually is hard to understand how he thinks he can get away with it. The plan, announced during a two-day climate summit that began on Earth Day, calls for the slashing of carbon emissions by over half in less than ten years, and the United States becoming a zero-emissions economy by 2050. While Biden hasn’t released the details of this plan yet, experts say that it will take huge changes to accomplish Biden’s climate objectives. While electric cars currently only make up about 2 percent of new

The admission of the District of Columbia as the 51st state, the opening of the southern border, limitations on gun ownership, the addition of seats to the US Supreme Court — all are so many stakes to be driven through its heart to make certain it never rises again.

The Biden Department of Education has quietly proposed a new rule prioritizing the use of federal tax dollars for K-12 schools that replace traditional education with “culturally responsive teaching and learning” – more commonly referred to as critical race theory. This is the most significant move by the federal government to redefine the nature of state-funded public schools in U.S. history. Although the current effort to push public schools receiving federal funding to adopt a detailed indoctrination agenda may feel new and overwhelming for parents, the truth is that the Biden attempt is simply the last phase in a decades-

Police described the attack as a “possible knockout game.” Also in January, Catholic Deacon Frederick Kurr, 74, was sucker-punched as he attempted to swipe his subway card inside a Bronx subway station. Video footage shows a suspect, who had been standing at an adjacent turnstile, punching Kurr in the face. The suspect reportedly told Kurr not to call for help, and he also told his victim:

Twenty retired French generals have called for military rule if Emmanuel Macron fails to halt the 'disintegration' of the country 'at the hands of Islamists', in an open letter published ahead of next year's presidential election. The open letter, published in Valeurs Actuelles, a right-wing news magazine, claims a military coup might be necessary to stop a 'civil war' in France. The letter has been condemned by Macron's government, who compared it to the failed coup by generals against President de Gaulle 60 years ago. However, far-right National Rally leader Marine Le Pen hailed the letter, which was signed by 80 other retired officers,

What makes one of the videos so compelling is the fact that it seemly represents the breakdown of law and order across American cities.
