We will talk about "Where Scotland used to be".
Much like Califronia, the people voted into power seem to be trying to destroy the place.

Or one could learn...
To not break laws when you can't afford to pay the fines.
In a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday, attorneys for the two say North Carolina’s practice of revoking drivers’ licenses of people who can’t pay their traffic fines and court costs is unconstitutional because it violates the rights to due process and equal protection under the 14th amendment.
What do you want to bet that these 2 people have had a drink 4 or 5 times a week, Or ought a coffee from a coffeehouse....or eaten out since they got those fines? Unless they are already eating rice and beans, I'd bet they could have come up with the money, had they chosen to do so by making that a priority instead of spending money on other things....
Most people make different choices. Some never learn. Which category do you think these folks are?

Oddly, the smugglers failed to get a permit.....
So the Border Patrol wants to fill in the tunnels they find that go under the border from Mexico to the US...used to smuggle people and drugs into America.....
Makes sense, right? If the tunnel is filled in, then no one has to sit at the exit and watch to make sure it isn't still being used....
But the EPA requires a permit for "Remediation" to fill in the tunnels with gravel and cement. It sometimes takes months for a permit.
Yet, oddly no one got a permit to dig the things in the first place. And no one got fined for doing it, either. Seems the EPA has it's priorities all screwed up, doesn't it? Perhaps they could use their SWAT team to guard it instead of CBP officers.

Never trust clowns
Especially late at night.
Never let 'em get within Tueller distance.
Keep firing until he falls away from you.
Little Caesars employee shoots, kills attacker wearing clown mask.
If a dude walks or runs up to me wearing a clown mask in an alley after 11 pm, I might be surprised enough not to shoot at first too....

So much for their oath
"Sworn agents"
All they are worried about is a job and a retirement.
“This is a great opportunity for senior or [soon to be retiring] guys, not for someone like me. It’d be suicide. I hate to say it, but neither the judiciary nor the executive branch is wielding any kind of effective oversight right now, and the top managers know it.”“You still have a ton of bad people in place. Unless that changes, and I haven’t seen any degree of seriousness on the part of ranking members nor staffers, I’m not meeting with anyone nor willing to be subpoenaed. I’m not coming forward until they get their act together.
So much for their integrity as lawmen of the land.
"An individual, except the President, elected or appointed to an office of honor or profit in the civil service or uniformed services, shall take the following oath: “I, (State your name), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”

So, Starbucks fell on it's sword:
Closing it's company owned stores for "Diversity Training" in an attempt to expiate it's sin....
Or something.
Instead of standing tall and saying:
"For the protection of our customers, and to make an enjoyable, safe environment in our customer areas, we have restricted the use of our bathrooms and public areas to our customers, not just anyone. The men who were arrested were politely asked to either pay for a drink, therefore becoming customers or to leave. They chose to do neither. When the police were called, they were again offered the chance to either become a customer or to leave. They refused to do either and were, therefore, arrested. This was a setup and we refute all claims of racism. Again, in order to use our facilities; bathrooms chairs, tables, etc, ONE MUST BE A CUSTOMER...no matter what their race."
they chose to knuckle under to the SJW folks. they've spent millions of dollars and reignited the debacle and the media attention...
If you have Starbucks stock, I'd sell it.

The city had no laws pertaining to residential gardens, which means they were technically not allowed.
I would not like to live anywhere where this attitude is prevalent...
"If something is not permitted, then it is automatically prohibited".
Think about that statement.
This city's government has the attitude that, if an activity is not specifically addressed in the city code and permitted by that same code, then it is illegal.
"The city had no laws pertaining to residential gardens, which means they were technically not allowed."
According to the city’s laws, if something is not permitted it is prohibited.
“Right now, if there is not something expressly in this code that says that you can have one, you technically can’t,” Blakeman confirmed.
This attitude, folks, is the very definition of tyrrany
I would expect that the folks in Columbiana Ohio should think about this in the upcoming elections, wouldn't you?

For all the "Failings" of our country
At least we don't have things like this happen:
Tommy Robinson, a British activist and journalist, has been arrested outside a Leeds courtroom for livestreaming information about a Muslim gang on trial for raping and grooming hundreds of victims, some as young as eleven.
In other words, while the US has Free Speech, and the right to report trials, the Brits don't. The government gets to decide what you can talk about (or not) as they wish....and you can't do anything about it.
The best part is that the Judge banned anyone from talking about the case. So there WILL be no dissent. Or else.
If this isn't a reason to show how our Constitution makes this country better, I don't know how to show you any better.
Note: HE WAS ARRESTED AND JAILED FOR REPORTING the trial.....Not for doing anything else wrong.....But for simply showing the trial to other countrymen.... For bringing to light the crimes the the British government is trying to cover up....the pedophile group that abused children....
Why is the British Government trying to hide this?? Is it because the perpetrators are Muslim?
At least here in the US these crimes would not be hidden.
I expect that England, as we know it, is lost forever.

Truth:
Remember WHY you got Monday off.
It ain't "Barbecue Day"...nor is it "The Official Start of Summer".
If this wan't a moveable holiday, then perhaps people would remember.

Because this America, that's why
Crowd boos, when told "there will be no anthem, Play Ball"....sings National Anthem anyway.
Because, you left coast assholes, some folks are still traditionalists and are proud of their country and are not ashamed to show it....
There might be hope for Califronia yet....

So today
When you are cracking that beer, toasting those hot dogs or burgers or ribeyes, ribs, chicken, steaks, or whatever on the grill.
Having fun, laughing with friends or family......
Sitting on the deck, or in the yard, or whatever you do to "celebrate" this Memorial Day weekend....
Take 5 minutes...just 5..
Thank those folks for whom this Memorial Day is meant.
Those who gave their all. From any war in the past 240+ past years...to the men killed yesterday in Afghanistan....
Say a silent prayer....or just say "Thank You"...they'll hear it.
And take another minute and remind the rest of the folks around you WHY they got a 3 day weekend.
And ask them to remember as well.

question:
So for YEARS, everyone knew...it was an "Open secret" that Harvey Weinstein took full advantage of the "Casting Couch" ...he had the power, and he used it.
But the thing is, he paid up. All those women who sold themselves....who chose to acquiesce in order to advance their careers in the movie business....those women made a choice. Most were, at best mediocre actresses of uncertain beauty......of less talent than many others. But they got what they wanted....
Is there any shame. any derision, and disgust for those women who, by choice, made their careers happen using their" charm", their looks, their bodies? For those women who played the game with Harvey, who prostituted themselves in their quest for fame....when their talents could not get them the parts they desired?
Society, and people in power are going after Harvey Weinstein....but he only sold what those women were buying. What they were willing to pay for....
And those women should be held up and scorned...derided as much or more than Harvey.
And those who "Claim" he did something against their will...and who kept quiet for years, just, if their story is true, enabled him to do it to other women. Which makes them cowards for not telling their story.
So where is the scorn for all those women who, in one way or another, (and there is no nice way to put it) whored themselves out for fame and fortune??
Someone, somewhere, greatly powerful, has decided to destroy Harvey Weinstein.

So when
are we gonna get some form of communication from the Mueller led "investigation"???
So far, I haven't seen squat from them or anyone else as far as them finding anything. They've claimed that they have found things about some of the folks that were around the Trump Campaign, but so far, nothing on any of the principals. And I have not ever seen any document that shows what the scope of their investigation is, or what limits they have.....Even Kenneth Starr had limits and a destination in mind when he began his journey into the dark secrets of the Clintons....
Is there a deadline wherein they must produce something or give up their "investigation"? Are there any responsible people doing any reviewing of the work they claim to be doing? Is there a point where someone says "Ok, you've spent enough money and have "X" man hour invested and you haven't got squat" and forces them to disband their witch hunt?
Or is this open ended investigation going to keep digging forever? Is it an actual, you know, investigation, or just a jobs program for mediocre lawyers?
At what point does this witch hunt end?

But women don't lie about stuff like that.....
Yeah, sure. How often have we heard that from other women?
Except that this sort of thing keeps happening. Women can no longer make the accusation and then just cry to be believed....
Bodycam proves Texas Highway cop DID NOT sexually assault woman he arrested for DUI. It appears that he was very professional
So is she gonna get time for the false accusation? Seems to me that she should get the maximum penalty that HE was up against. If he was up for 5 years, then she should get 5 years. Plus character assasinnation damages.
The thing is, these false allegations undermine the credibility of those women who ARE victims of men who rape or otherwise molest them. Who do we believe?

"Stand or stay off the field"
The NFL finally grew a set of balls....sorta.
If players are on the field when the National Anthem is played, they will stand.
Or, they can hide in the locker room.
Or fines will be levied on their employers.
This is a decent start. I have grown tired of the bullshit. Tired of the disrespect towards our country.
These players are, at the end, employees. And it is time that the NFL (and the teams) made them behave.
I'm all for folks exercising their First Amendment rights....just not when they are working.
And the perceived "Brutality" towards black people is just that....perceived. Behave, don't run, don't act like an animal, and yer not likely to get shot. Whites get shot at the same rate when interacting with the police.....It's just that, due to behavior, the black inner city kids get interacted with more....and they decide how it goes from the first point of contact. Run, fight, struggle, and yer gonna get treated accordingly.
Don't wanna get pulled over? Don't act like a "Yo". Don't cruise around in town with the ganga smoke detectable 3 blocks away. Don't play your music loud enough to be hears 3 blocks over. In short, behave.
Running and strugggling will generally get you non-gentle treatment. Act like a criminal, you'll get treated like one.
There are a LOT of things that the players could legitimately protest, and lots of respectful ways in which they could do so.
Their stated reason...the one started by Colin Kaepernick is bullshit and is disrespectful. I'd like to see more....like 10 game suspensions, but this is a start.

A Sure-Fire way to win greater approval:
What Donald Trump really needs to do in order to raise his approval rating and to help all the other Conservatives that are running for re-election is to demand that the FCC/FTC and whatever other department has jurisdiction start enforcing the Do Not Call list, and also find and drive a stake through the heart of "Susie from Credit Card Services" and her ilk.
Get a conviction for her and her enablers and publicize it, and even hard core Liberals will think better of him. Hang 'em on the Washington Mall (after disemboweling preceded by scalping preceded by a firing squad) and televise it, and he'll retain the majorities in the Legislative branch.
Make the calls stop, and he'll get re-elected.
(Why is it that the FCC/FTC are not stopping these calls and preventing firms from ignoring the DoNotCall list? There are HUGE fines possible, and I get at least 5 a week from assorted folks wanting to offer me something...sometimes 5 a DAY)

The only issue
is that it is the citizens that will end up paying, not the individuals who made the asinine and political decision.
Student sues school because he was kicked out of class for wearing a Pro-Border Wall t-shirt.
We need to figure out a way that the perpetrators of such misjudgement will be held personally responsible rather than the taxpayers that employ 'em.

I wonder
How long it takes for Starbucks to go under?
I mean, now that anyone can sit in their booths and use their bathrooms.....and never be asked to pay or anything...buy a coffee or a cookie or a drink....
'Cause I am willing to be that most of their customers, despite leaning to the Left and having "egalitarian" beliefs, won't want to share a table with some dude who is homeless and hasn't showered in a month.....and who trims his toenails where it is air conditioned and sleeps where it is warm in the winter.....Or find some chick shooting up in the bathrooms.....
I predict a large fall off in sales at Starbucks in Urban locations. Rapidly, once people realize that they can just stay there all day....

This is my shocked face:
I mean who would have guessed?
Parkland survivor’s dad: David Hogg and Cameron Casky love each other, but not romantically
Rumor has it that they are taking each other to Prom.
(not that there is anything wrong with that, mind you).
Or this could just be a last grasp for some residual fame...
I'm really trying to give a shit here, but it just won't happen.
