The Briar Patch

This one is a VERY political post, if your not a fan of my politics maybe just close it.... As of this writing there has not been an announcement by the jury  Kyle Rittenhouse took 2 lives, for that he should face some sort of punishment. If you want my opinion I don't really care that he did BUT if we want a society run with laws and order yes sadly he should be punished. Now I don't think by any means it should be a murder 1 charge. You always hear these sob stories about how society failed someone, Kyle was failed by society. First off, if you look up Kenosha and what happened Wikipedia calls it "Unrest" It WASN'T fucking unrest there is over $50 million dollars in damage. It was arson and riots. Unrest is protesters with signs at the legislature grounds here, chanting or whatever they do. Hell unrest could be the blockades of pipelines. $50 million in damage is not fucking unrest, it is disgusting that mainstream media is painting it down. Call a spade a spade...

 Welp Derek Chauvin is guilty of murdering George Floyd. He is, I am not going to say otherwise, had he not been kneeling on George there is a fairly good chance George would still be alive today. I am not about to say what he would be doing because like pretty much every murder victim with a shady past I have heard he was a saint and I have heard he was still a criminal. The fact is he had meth and fentanyl in his system when he died. Law abiding citizens should not have that in their systems.... But no that doesn't mean he deserved what happened, I am simply pointing out facts. So much of this case hasn't really dealt with facts but with emotions. While we are on the emotion part here, Derek was never going to get a "fair" trial. This incident polarized a nation, hell it polarized the western world. 12 Trumptards and he might have walked free. Again I agree with the conviction I am just stating all the facts.... Everyone has heard and formed opinions on this case. A...

I'm done. Something I haven't said to too many people is I have seen a mental health professional a few times. For a couple things. The truth is sometimes talking to someone helps, a lot. I have this blog and I rant a lot. Quite often on meaningless shit. This time however I am just going to be honest on the shit that is really bugging me. No solutions, not much editing just the honest truth HOPING I will feel a bit better. First I am over Covid. Well honestly I am over 2020, there are a million memes about this year but Covid is what really was a kick in the teeth for me. See right now I SHOULD have a bag half packed. Real soon I should be on a plane to Heathrow airport. I won't say all my life but since high school, so a good 20 years I have wanted to go to Europe. I was supposed to this month. In fact my birthday was supposed to be in Venice. This is all gone, I wonder when transAtlantic travel will even be allowed back? I can see USA and Canada opening up way before cro...

It is painful for me to see more and more this country of ours divided. I don't know how it got this way, well I do have an unpopular theory. Wanna hear it? I assume since your reading this you do..... We the majority were assholes. For years minorities were treated like shit. Lets just refer to most of us a old white men. We didn't like "queers", we didn't like different skin colours, we really didn't like other religions. Hell we even held women down, now don't get me wrong women many of you were just like old white men happy to see other minorities held down. And let's say this went on for a long time! Not a few years but a few centuries. People get angry, people start to resent us. Then comes the 60s, the 70s and the 90s! Social justice becomes a thing. And it is a good thing. All people should be equal. But it becomes give an inch, take a mile. NO meeting in the middle. It isn't enough to be equal, it needs shown just how EQUAL you are. No l...
