In one of my Letters to the Editor posted to the Rhino on August 28^th one individual in a series of replies stated that he believed I was afraid of Socialism. And I replied yes, I was.

As I said there, I am afraid of Socialism because I not only know what it can do I have SEEN firsthand what it has done to countries where it’s being attempted. It might start out looking like the answer but soon people begin to realize their rights are taken away “under a temporary emergency decree until things can improve.” Of course that time never comes. What does come is a morphing of a Socialist system into a Marxist/Communist system.

In my reply, I said “Our rights are given to us by God and have been defended by countless others who have sacrificed blood, sweat, tears, and in many cases their lives to ensure we still have them. We have no right to allow them to be taken away or to stand by while it happens.” And I mean every word. What truly concerned me was his reply.

“Which rights were given by god and which were written by man?

The right to own a gun? The right to travel and conduct personal business? The right to breathe?

Which rights were given by god? Don’t forget to site your sources.

You’ll realize quickly that humankind converted their beliefs into laws which then became recognized and over the years indoctrinated as “rights”. A right to live? That contradicts support of capital punishment. A right to liberty? That contradicts support of lengthy prison sentences. A right to the pursuit of happiness? Maybe you got me there. I’m not sure how protestors pursuing their happiness is so antithetical to what you stand for then.”

Attitude and beliefs like that are what, in my opinion, fuel the socialist movement in this country. I am in no way saying or implying he is a Socialist or adheres to Socialist doctrine. But people that think like him are how the Socialists and anarchists have been able to gain an upper hand.

When it came to standing up to the Socialist/Marxist/Communist left and their brain dead foot soldiers like Antifa and BLM, those of us that will not bow to their demands and point of view refer to ourselves as sheepdogs, prepared to stand between others and the wolves howling for their blood. I in particular refer to myself as a sheepdog with rabies.

He, like many others, seem to have a problem seeing the difference between a protester, that being someone who marches, has rallies, hands out flyers, and rioters, who burn, loot, assault and in too many cases kill those who oppose them. He has accused me of advocating violence in spite of not knowing me, my thoughts and ignoring my mantra, that being I do not look for trouble, but I will not run from it either. I will stand and defend people and property from these animals if the police can’t or won’t. If they want to talk, I’m willing to talk. But screaming in my face, calling me names, accusing me of being a racist/sexist/homophobe/white supremacist is not talking.

I will engage a protestor anytime, and have in the past. I will defend them while they exercise their Constitutional right. But rioters and anarchists only understand one thing. If they want to dance, we can dance. I will meet force with more force. I will escalate when they escalate. But I will deescalate when they do.

As my favorite quote from history goes, said by Captain John Parker on the Lexington Green, “Stand your ground. Don’t fire unless fired upon, but if they mean to have a war, let it begin here.”

‘Nuff said.

The kabuki theatre that is Washington D.C. continues, as always, without a program.

The Wicked Witch of the West let he House go on vacation without providing help to the American working people impacted by the virus. Rather than trying to negotiate in good faith for legislation to get that help, she picked up her ball and went back behind the walls of her gated, guarded community and her castle with its refrigerator full of ice cream while we peasants scrambled just to pay our bills, never mind being able to buy gallons of ice cream.

But when she felt a major part of her/their master plan for stealing the election was being threatened she jumped on her government paid for broom and summoned her obedient minions (who laughingly claim to represent the people, and do it with a straight face) to do something about that. Never mind people who truly need help.

To her credit she did come down on her ransom demands and challenged the Republicans to counter offer. But when asked how the money she wanted would be used she refused to give details. Where have we heard that before? Oh yeah, “You have to pass the bill to find out what’s in the bill.” The next thing you know the plague known as Obamacare (If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor. If you like your plan, you can keep your plan) was unleashed on the American people.

I believe she is facing unrest from her flying monkeys because these liberal cities are running out of our money to give out and are desperate for more to stay in power. They have to face the results of their financial mismanagement and are demanding We the People not just bail them out but allow them to be able to keep doing what they’re doing.

These points, along with all the violence and crime overrunning American streets, need to be hammered home by the Republicans and push back against the laughingly absurd claims that all this is President Trump’s fault. Mayors and Governors run cities and states, the President runs the country. If they won’t ask for or accept the offered help, then on their heads let it be.

As for Pelosi, someone find a bucket of water.

Alan Marshall

The Republican Party is finally starting to push back against the ‘misinformation’, aka lies, the (National Socialist) Democrat Party and their flying monkey minions are dishing out.

They love to parrot the line about the economy is in shambles, people are financially hurting, unemployment is way up and it’s all President Trump and the Republicans fault. They don’t want to admit that up until the China virus (yes, I’m using HIS term because it originated in China and China allowed it to spread) the economy was on fire, unemployment was down on every metric, businesses were begging for workers, incomes were up, life in general in America was for the most part good because, for the most part, actions taken by President Trump in spite of the roadblocks thrown up by the ‘rats. We are hurting but we are also starting to come back.

One commenter here (here I am referring to an individual who call themselves Lizzy, who comments on my Letters to the Editor in the Rhino Times. Check it out online.) is obsessed with claiming President Trump killed 160,000 people (I think that’s the latest number) by mishandling the virus situation.

First, in a pandemic, like war, people will die no matter what you do. It’s a fact of life. But, according to the ‘rats, it’s all President Trump’s fault.

Second, you can only react to a situation based on the information you have on hand. The CCP with the help of the WHO intentionally hid and lied about the situation. These conditions are like trying to cross a room full of mines in the dark. And it doesn’t help that your “experts” were giving you bad advice as well. But, according to the ‘rats, it’s all President Trump’s fault.

Third, as soon as the situation began to become clearer, he immediately put in travel restrictions and was lambasted by the people giving you your marching orders, calling it an overreaction, xenophobic, and racist, But, according to the ‘rats, it’s all President Trump’s fault.

Fourth, when he was calling for people to self-isolate the ‘rats, in particular the Wicked Witch of the West was telling people to ignore him and “come to Chinatown”. The King of NYC was calling on people to continue to go out and do what they have always done. But, according to the ‘rats, it’s all President Trump’s fault.

It’s been the State “elected officials” that have been putting the restrictions on people and businesses. They claim to be using science as their justification, but the question is whose science. They cherry pick to meet their agenda of control. But, according to the ‘rats, it’s all President Trump’s fault.

Do we need to take precautions? Yes! There are reasonable actions we, as individuals, can and should take. But some servants of the people have used this to establish their own little fiefdoms with their bosses, the people, as their peasants.

To them I say get your knee off our neck, we can’t breathe.

I also want to encourage people to comment, good or bad, on my posts. Also please spread the word about my blog to anyone anywhere. Also feel free to share my posts, but please don’t alter or cherry pick like the main stream liars like to do.

It’s been reported a black man in Georgia “felt compelled” to go out and stab a white man after watching a series of videos of police shootings online. He walked into an Auto Zone, was greeted by the employee and proceeded to stab the employee in the neck and torso 7 times. So where are the main stream liars on this? Where are the protest and riots? Oh, that’s right; it doesn’t fit the leftist agenda.

In Colorado a black man screaming “Black live matter” stabbed a white man in the torso. When confronted by police he admitted to it and demanded the police shoot him. Fortunately it’s being treated as a hate crime (but…but…but he’s a black man. He’s not allowed to be charged with a hate crime.)

In South Carolina a step-father was shot in the head twice execution style. His step-daughter was also shot and killed and another individual wounded by a black man who had rear ended the man’s car. Again, where are the protestors and riots? Where are the main stream liars with wall to wall coverage?

People leaving the President’s speech were accosted, assaulted, and harassed by lawless, Marxist/Socialist/Communist animals. They have become embolden enough to even assault police officers trying to protect a U.S. Senator. And the ‘rat mayor of DC seemed to have understaffed the security detail that was assigned there. And there is apparently evidence that outsiders were bussed in to participate in the violence.

And before you start screaming conspiracy theory, explain this report

Kenosha Police got a tip about some suspicious vehicles. They checked and found a black school bus, a bread truck, and a tan minivan with out-of-state plates. They followed to a gas station where officers observed occupants exit the bus and the bread truck and attempt to fill multiple fuel cans.

Suspecting the individuals were preparing for criminal activity related to civil unrest in the city, the officers exited their vehicles, identified themselves, and detained the occupants of the bus and the bread truck. The driver of the minivan tried to pull away, police said, but the vehicle was stopped and officers forced their way inside and arrested the occupants. Inside the vehicles they found illegal fireworks, helmets, gas masks, protective vests and suspected controlled substances.

So go ahead. Please continue to tell us these are conspiracy theories.

He’s up, he shoots, Oh it’s swatted away.

Alan Marshall

This an op-ed from TheBlaze.com talking about the shootings in Kenosha.

The writer had access to some many assets to be able to dive as deep as he did into the subject. While I agree with an overwhelming majority of the points, one that I will not budge on. This kid should never have been given a rifle and never should have been allowed to be where he was. Whoever gave him that rifle needs to be prosecuted. The people that allowed him to be and stay there also share responsibility in what happen.

As a 20 year parachute infantry/special operations soldier with combat experience I can say putting a 17 year old kid with absolutely no training into this environment was beyond stupid.

The op-ed starts here.

Kyle Rittenhouse should not have been patrolling the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin, Tuesday night. Whatever failures might have existed on the part of state and local government (and there appear to have been many), the idea of a 17-year-old with a loaded rifle being dropped into that powder keg can only happen when some horribly bad judgment has occurred.

I say this as a gun owner and Second Amendment supporter who took his son to the shooting range at that same age and taught him how to properly handle a firearm: I don’t know what Kyle Rittenhouse’s family or home situation is like, or how exactly he came to be where he was on that fateful night, but it’s disappointing (to say the least) that no one in his life prevented him from being there. I’m sure, at this point, that Rittenhouse himself would agree.

However, two narratives about the situation are emerging, neither of which appears to be supported by even a sliver of evidence: First, that Rittenhouse is a white supremacist, and second, that he is a murderer.

To the first point, the media began to paint Rittenhouse as a white supremacist almost immediately based on no evidence at all, and continued slandering him as one throughout the day.

Just for the record, Rittenhouse’s social media is NOT full of misogyny and white supremacy. The New York Times searched it exhaustively and found that “multiple posts on his social media accounts proclaim support for pro-police causes like the Blue Lives Matter movement and Humanize the Badge, a nonprofit that he ran a Facebook fund-raiser for on his 16th birthday.”

This does not count as support for white supremacy to anyone with a functioning cerebral cortex. I suppose that more evidence might emerge on that score, but the evidence that Rittenhouse was involved with real white supremacy, as opposed to fake white supremacy that has been invented by the professional victim class of liberal American politics does not yet exist.

More importantly, there appears to be no evidence at all that Rittenhouse is guilty of murder, much less first-degree murder. I spent a substantial portion of Wednesday viewing numerous upsetting videos of Rittenhouse’s deadly encounters with Kenosha rioters, and in every single one of those videos, Rittenhouse is clearly trying to extricate himself from danger brought on by a mob that appeared hell bent on doing him harm.

The New York Times, which is hardly sympathetic to what Rittenhouse was unwisely attempting to do, put an extraordinary amount of work into tracking Rittenhouse’s movements on that Tuesday night, and the resulting breakdown is damning to the prosecutors and media figures who have branded this teenager as a racist murderer.

The Times notes, among other things, that Rittenhouse was seen on social media video throughout the night mostly staying in the area of a Kenosha car dealership — but not the same one where the first shooting occurred. The Times also noted that he was captured in multiple videos offering medical assistance to protesters who were affected by pepper spray that police used in the area. He was then seen passing out water bottles to police and talking to officers in the area. He left that dealership, and police prevented him from returning.

According to the Times, “Six minutes later footage shows Mr. Rittenhouse being chased by an unknown group of people into the parking lot of another dealership several bocks away.”

One of those people, we know from video, was the first person who was shot by Rittenhouse. That person has been identified by police as Joseph Rosenbaum, a white registered sex offender who was convicted of a sex crime with a minor and who was seen on video using the N-word near black militia members and taunting them to “shoot me, n***a.” At this point, Rosenbaum is the only person involved in this story who is confirmed to have done anything that might get a person justifiably branded as a white supremacist.

As the Times notes, while Rittenhouse was being pursued by the visibly hostile and aggressive Rosenbaum, “an unknown gunman fires into the air, though it’s unclear why. The weapon’s muzzle flash appears in footage filmed at the scene. Mr. Rittenhouse turns toward the sound of the gunfire as another pursuer [Rosenbaum] lunges toward him from the same direction. Mr. Rittenhouse then fires four times, and appears to shoot the man in the head.”

Not mentioned by the Times: Video also shows Rosenbaum throwing a bag filled with unknown objects as he chases Rittenhouse into the parking lot.

Get it? Rittenhouse was being chased by a group of angry adults who were throwing things at him, and he hears a nearby gunshot. For all he knows, the shot might have been intended for him. As Rittenhouse was looking around attempting to locate the source of the sound, Rosenbaum charged him.

If you, as a prosecuting attorney, are aware of these facts and come away with the conclusion that a first-degree murder charge is warranted, then you need to turn in your law license. Putting aside Rittenhouse’s clearly viable claim to self-defense, the facts of the case simply don’t fit that charge.

The Times notes that after Rittenhouse shot Rosenbaum, he “seems to make a phone call and then flees the scene.” We don’t know this yet but I would bet a significant amount of money that if Rittenhouse did, in fact, make a phone call, it was to 911 to report the shooting. And he fled the scene because, as noted by the Times and seen in multiple videos, the mob began to chase him further after the shooting. The Times notes that as he was trying to escape, Rittenhouse tripped and fell to the ground.

According to the Times, Rittenhouse then “fir[ed] four shots as three people rush[ed] toward him. One person appear[ed] to be hit in the chest[.]” Not mentioned by the Times is the perhaps relevant fact that the person in question was caught on photo trying to use Rittenhouse’s head as a softball, with his skateboard as a bat. The omission is bizarre because even a Getty photographer happened to catch this attack literally as it happened.

Additionally, the Times notes that the other individual who was shot by Rittenhouse was “carrying a handgun,” but omits the detail, carried in several videos, that the gun was also loaded.

So, to review, Rittenhouse was chased by an angry mob that was throwing unidentified objects at him into an abandoned car parking lot at night, and then was charged by a clearly hostile adult right after he heard a nearby gunshot. When he tried to leave the situation, he was chased again by an even larger mob, one of whom had a loaded handgun, and was hit in the face by a large adult with a skateboard.

As the Times notes, Rittenhouse then noted the presence of police nearby, and began walking toward them with his hands up in a clear attempt to surrender to the police (and likely avail himself of some safety from the mob that was chasing him). The police, however, drove past him without stopping, so Rittenhouse fled. I would submit that these are not the actions of either a first-degree murderer or someone who intended to flee the scene of a shooting, but rather someone who was in legitimate and reasonable fear for their life and trying to survive in a chaotic situation.

In spite of the plethora of videos and photographs featuring Rittenhouse and his activities on that night, there are still some details we don’t know. And I wouldn’t necessarily rule out all criminal charges until all the facts are in. But first-degree murder is a facially preposterous charge based on what we know already, and the district attorneys who brought those charges should be ashamed.

Good Cop Story,
The police department in the small hill country town of Kerrville, Texas, reported finding a man’s body last Saturday, in the early evening, in the Pedernales River near the state highway-87 bridge. The dead man’s name would not be released until his family had been notified.
The victim apparently drowned due to excessive beer consumption while visiting “someone” in Fredericksburg. When he was found, he was wearing black fishnet stockings, 10 inch spiked heels, a red garter belt, a pink G-string, purple lipstick, dazzel dust on his eyelids, 2 1/2 inch false eyelashes, and a Biden T-shirt.
The police removed the Biden T-shirt to spare his family any unnecessary embarrassment.
The Police do care!

So the bomb throwing dear of the left Shaun King has ramped up the call for violence, both physical and non-physical, buy issuing a threat that if they don’t name the officer involved in the shooting of Jacob Blake he will start outing random police officers names and information claiming they might have been the one. This piece of evil incarnate crap (not the word I wanted to use) doesn’t care about the safety and security of the officers or their families. Sounds a lot like blackmail.

Next we go to Seattle where ‘peaceful protesters’ tried to seal up the door on a police station with cement and then set the building on fire with police officers inside. I don’t think I need to expound on this cowardly act.

Let’s talk about the compassionate Hollywood liberals like Bette Midler who went on Twitter trying to rip the First Lady with the following comments.

“#beBest is back! A UGE bore! She can speak several words in a few languages. Get that illegal alien off the stage!”

“Oh, God. She still can’t speak English.”

“I’m surprised Trump wants to destroy the #PostOffice. He got all his wives from it,”

“Get that illegal alien off the stage”

Crickets from the mainstream liars, but if it had been a ‘rat on the stage there would have been lynch mobs in the streets wanting blood. And I thought the term ‘illegal alien’ was hate speech.

Finally there is Don Lemon who was begging Bunker Biden to come out and condemn the violence not because of the deaths, the injuries, the destruction of private and public property, and the loss of small businesses. No, he wanted him to call for an end because it’s hurting Democrats in the polls. That’s what’s most important. BTW, they got Joe lucid enough for a short period that he could read the teleprompter with some rambling statement about stopping the violence.

I’m very anxious to see and hear the attempts by the leftists, the liberals, and the social justice whiners to defend these DOCUMENTED despicable acts by their Antifa loving, radical Socialist/Communist supporting, soulless icons. Please, I’m begging you, bring it.

Also, anybody want to take bets that at some time in the near future someone is going to declare that Hurricane Laura is racist because minorities got hit the hardest.

Never let a crisis go to waste.

Alan Marshall

I knew this kind of thing was inevitably going to happen when I started seeing these roving bands of vandals, thugs, miscreants, or, for the benefit of the those that worship at the shrine of the mainstream liars, ‘peaceful protesters wandering the streets armed and taking opportunities to try to look tough by taking threatening stances and squaring off against unarmed citizens and armored (I’m still chuckling a those morons) police vehicles.

Now we have two people killed and one wounded, shot by one of these street animals. All you left leaning supporters that get your panties in a wad when you see people openly carrying their weapons at marches, notice they don’t brandish them in a threatening manner. You don’t see them squaring off against unarmed people, blocking their way home, or squaring off against police. I don’t include the couple that was being threatened by a mob.

Of course the left leaning, gun hating/fearing liberals will totally ignore all the points I just made to try to use this as another reason for taking away people’s guns.

I am not advocating turning our streets into something out of Tombstone or Dodge City. What I am saying is that the very people that get the vapors when they see people on the right properly, safely, and, most importantly, LEGALLY carrying their firearms. I would also point out there is a video of one of these ‘peaceful protesters’ putting a gun in the face of a camera crew covering the riots, but I haven’t seen anything about that from the mainstream liars.

Again, (National Socialist) Democrat governors and mayors carry a major portion of the responsibility for this madness. They stood and continue to stand by, wringing their hands, whining about the unrest, and telling their law enforcement officers and officials not to do their job or ‘you might make them madder’. They only care about trying to show the mob how woke they are instead of defending and protecting the hard working, tax paying business owners and citizens of their cities and towns.

The contrast is obvious yet ignored by the left and those that choose to wear blinders and earplugs hoping if they ignore it hoping it will go away.

There are sheep who cower before the wolves, and then there are sheepdogs that stand before the wolves. I count myself among the sheepdogs…and I have rabies.

Alan Marshall

So let’s see, it appears that not only is the lawless rioting, looting and general destruction of private and public property spreading, based on a recent video out of Kenosha Wisconsin that shows at least two or three individual armed with rifles and pistols confronting a Sheriff’s vehicle…an armored Sheriff’s vehicle…with at least one actually squaring off against an armored vehicle with a rifle. (BTW it was one of those scary black rifles the left wants take away…at least at first…from anyone not with them…at least for now)

First, this demonstrates a major level of escalation on the part of the BLM/Antifa/Socialist Leftist rioters that the main stream liars keep calling “peaceful protesters”. Add this to the video of a different mob, some of whom were armed, marching through a suburban neighborhood, blocking traffic and at one point an armed individual took a threatening stance and squaring off against a man in his pick up just trying to get home.

Second, what kind of idiot squares off against an armored vehicle…an ARMORED vehicle…with a rifle? Someone needs to be held responsible for allowing overgrown children to play with guns.

Then you had a guy badly beaten for trying to help a trans individual that was being assaulted and mugged a mob made up of folks that are supposed to be out there for them. So obviously they are starting to eat their own. Or could it be they really don’t care about those people and have been using them as cover their real agenda.

Yes, there was a confrontation between left and right extremists and that was dangerous and stupid. It’s one thing to stand your ground and defend yourself and everything you believe in, it’s another to go looking for a fight. I also saw tactics being used by the Antifa mob that showed coordination and training. Not so much on the other side. They definitely need some pointers.

My whole point is the façade is starting to fall away. They have tested the waters by having a few individuals they could later deny if it went sideways show up armed. I strongly suspect you are going to start seeing more and it will inevitably escalate to the next level with someone, police most likely, being shot. If and when that happens it will be Katy bar the door and because politicians have let it get to this level the police will be hard pressed to get back the control that will have been lost. When this happens that will be, I believe, the beginning of the REAL fight. That will be the time when you will see the next moron with a gun that tries to take a threatening stance against a man in his truck or tries to snatch a man out of his vehicle or intimidate a mother and her children get dropped like a bad habit.

Mommas, don’t let your babies grow up to be Commies.

A quick look at the Republican Party Platform, which they have rolled over from 2016 with no visible changes, stands in stark contrast to the (National Socialist) Democrat Party Platform.

The biggest, most obvious thing that jumps out is in the Democrat document they advocate bigger, more intrusive government control. In other words, socialism. And even then it’s not enough for the extreme left of the party, like the Squad, or as I prefer to refer to them, the Coven. They openly stated they would vote against it.

But let’s go beyond the written document. Bunker Biden sat down with self-avowed Socialist Democrat Bernie Sanders and his minions and struck a deal on how things would REALLY go. They have even openly stated how they will be able to manipulate doddering Uncle Joe to get the things they want.

As I’ve said before, if the ‘rats get control of the House, the Senate, and the White House you will never see a conservative/Republican majority in any of those places. They will take actions to ensure a one party rule for generations. They will change the makeup of the Supreme Court by adding more judges which will solidify their ability to ram their agenda down the throats of the American people regardless of what the majority wants. We will literally become a banana republic third world country with a ruling class consisting of our “elected officials” and their sycophants with the rest of us being their puppets being made to dance to their tunes. Individual freedom, the entire base on which this country was founded on after plenty of blood was shed by brave, far sighted patriots. But hey, they were the original “evil white, racist males”. Only according to the history I was taught there were plenty of others who did not fit that description who also paid the ultimate price for that cause.  But the ‘rats don’t want that out there because it doesn’t fit their version of history.

People are calling this the single most important election in American History. Yes, this has been said about plenty of other elections in the past but this time it’s true. The results of this election have the potential for “…fundamentally transforming the United States of America” for the worst.

And here is a quote from Mrs. Dear Leader to consider.

“We are going to have to change our conversation; we’re going to have to change our traditions, our history; we’re going to have to move into a different place as a nation.” — Michelle Obama, May 14, 2008 

Everyone must get out and vote. If you are not registered, do so then vote. This vote-by-mail scam the ‘rats are running has the potential for creating a Constitutional Crisis. I don’t use that term as lightly as the main stream liars tend to, but if you read the Constitution you will see why I am saying it.

VOTE!!! VOTE!!! VOTE!!!
