    I don't wanna become political, you know. So, I'll just reduce it down to the raw numbers and reality of what happened in Minneapolis/St. Paul last week. You all can determine whether it's "political" or not.

    My son also compiled these numbers:
    looting 1.jpg looting 2.jpg looting 3.jpg looting 4.jpg These are businesses that were damaged, some burned to the ground, and looted during the riots. Remember, many of these businesses are minority owned. These are the images that most Corporate News Outlets won't show you.

    Imagine those boys taken away from their lives, wives, girlfriends, jobs, farms then shipped out to climb up the Normandy cliffs under the fire at of MG42s in the name of saving indolent Europe. Dying somewhere on the remote land that never mattered to them.
    I salute to them.
    It is THEM whose lives mattered.

    Okay, back to rates, etc.

    I decided to come out of semi-retirement this last week.

    Things are looking up.

    The end.

    Someone always has to get offended about something. I don’t know how anyone who is actually paying attention to what’s going on could possibly condone it.

    The only thing we can 100% take and know from all of this is that the experts can’t be trusted. Not even a little bit. Nor many of our “leaders” who base their entire policy on said experts. We gotta start thinking for ourselves.

    I don’t know what the solution to the problem is, but I have a fairly good idea of what it isn’t.
