Just when you thought you were smarter than the average bear...

 

You find out that you're late to the game. This is in relation to my skin-suit posts of late. Somebody in the comments section of this Instapundit post already thought it up, or was clearly on track to do that.


Anyway, the post also revealed a few things I hadn't heard about... The Zizians! What a name! Anyway, the Zizians are real wackadoodles.


Following the thread a bit deeper into the comment section gets you a lengthy scoop about these Zizians.


I still like my skin-suit posts, even if it was already out there in at least its formative stages.



Mass shooters on psychotropic drugs



... and they're LEGAL... I have a theory that this gun-control push is really a "look squirrel!" attempt to get people not to look at a real problem that is at the heart of this kind of violence. It has nothing to do with guns.



Dick Morris also points out that Big Pharma got the okay to advertise on TV in 1997, when Slick Willy was in the White House. Morris accuses the Democratic aligned Media at covering this up.

Mass Shooters Often Are On Legal Drugs The Media Misses – Lunch Alert!



Also, I remember reading a bit about this yesterday on the Minnesota shooter. A commenter noted the effects of drugs she was taking in connection with her treatment for breast cancer. Same drugs are used on transexuals like this shooter, is what I got out of it. [Sorry, but I've already forgotten how to access that thread, so I cannot link to it here.]

The point is that a lot of these shooters may have been stopped a long time ago, but the Democrats are hiding this truth from the public, and are pushing guns as a way to distract people away from knowing a true cause and effect between these shootings and their own policy preferences.

It's EVIL.

 

Federal Appeals Court Rules 7-4 IEEPA Tariffs Unlawful, Decision Qualifiers and Narrow Application - Tariffs Remain Pending SCOTUS Review

The Conservative Treehouse

Pres. Trump responds on Truth Social:


Comment:

If it is about the international corporations, then it would seem that SOMETHING could be done about these as well as tariffs. If some of their corporate charters were to be pulled, and they could no longer be traded at the bourses, then it might get their attention.

Corporations are out of control. Leftist talk against corporations, but they actually LOVE corporations. In my opinion, corporations are not capitalism. It is a type of collectivism organized against freedom, as collectivism does do that, and corporations are by definition collectivist.

Does anybody really believe that by defending corporations that you defend freedom?

More on the Minnesota shooter

 

The thing that grabs me here is to refer to someone as "pure evil". But she looks harmless enough. You have to read through the replies to get a flavor of this.


I'm not a Catholic, so I won't comment on this too much. My recollection is that I read once that the Catholic Church would excommunicate members who did unapproved things. What she did certainly does seem to be unapproved, or should be. This is not something that Catholics should be doing, this so-called "gender-affirming" care thing. It should be totally forbidden. Otherwise, it is gravely sinful. Just my opinion based upon admittedly incomplete information.


The Church should not have employees who aren't in good standing. If this had been followed, the opportunity to do harm would have been reduced. Moreover, if this shooter had been properly handled, he would've been put in an insane asylum, and maybe in a straight jacket. Such a person is a danger to himself and to others. Again, just my opinion.


Finally, the system in Minnesota has a great deal of responsibility here... There is a very good reason for the liberals to be frantically trying to change the subject to gun-control. The full faith and credit clause of the Constitution makes this a Federal Issue, and should be taken up by the courts. A conservative leaning Court SHOULD strike down the Minnesota law. But that isn't guaranteed. Of course, a liberal one would do the same as they did with all the other "skin suit" issues.



Angry Astronaut critiques the latest Starship test

 

This guy has an annoying tone, but he makes a few points I won't quibble with. One thing though, he asks if there's going to be accountability for SpaceX's tardiness? I have to answer it with another question: "hasn't that already been done? Didn't Blue Origin sue, and obtained a judgement that will allow them to compete with Starship? Maybe Angry is angling for a Blue Origin takeover of the Artemis Moon shot.


If so, then how is Blue Origin coming along? He claims that SLS is on target as far as the 2027 timeline is concerned. Can Blue Origin get their act together fast enough to replace SpaceX, and thus get it all done in 2027? If not, then who can do it?


It's not enough to be just critical here. How about some suggestions? Anyway, here's his video.



Sounds nicer in Italian



Henry isn't talking, and Tommy's mother tells a story.

 

Reminds me of something...



It must be really bad

 

In Hemmingway's book, "For Whom the Bell Tolls", it was said that the more you talk the more grave the situation was. The characters were in a guerrilla band in the Spanish Civil War, talking about an action afterwards. A matter of gravity in that situation would be a matter of life or death. So when something happens that was pretty bad, you could judge how bad it was by how much of a need to talk that there was.


This Minnesota thing must be pretty bad because I feel the need to post about it.


One thing that I noticed about these people--they seem to think you want to harm them, but they end up harming themselves and others. That's the trannies. But they've clearly lost their minds.


If someone is insane, they are considered less responsible. Indeed, those who drive them to the point that they have gone completely bonkers, and are killing people; they are the ones more responsible. They should know better. In fact, the DO know better. The fact that the politicians have hidden this behavior before is evidence of a knowledge of guilt.


If wokism prevails, then you'd never hear about the fact that this was a tranny doing the killing, and if you asked about it, you might be arrested for "hatred".


Those who talk that way, like that Mayor in Minnesota did, are the most responsible parties. For that, politicians like that should be held accountable. Trannies should NOT go free. They need to be held because they are a danger to themselves and to others. It may be necessary to take other control measures too. Those who hold this up for political reasons are incurring political liability, and if justice prevailed, might well be held CRIMINALLY liable.
