More bad news for US gun advocates, as the federal courts show their illiteracy about firearms.  https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/assault-weapons-not-protected-second-amendment-federal-appeals-court-rules-n724106

“Maryland’s ban on 45 kinds of assault weapons and its 10-round limit on gun magazines were upheld Tuesday by a federal appeals court in a decision that met with a strongly worded dissent. In a 10-4 ruling, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Virginia, said the guns banned under Maryland’s law aren’t protected by the Second Amendment. “Put simply, we have no power to extend Second Amendment protections to weapons of war,” Judge Robert King wrote for the court, adding that the Supreme Court’s decision in District of Columbia v. Heller explicitly excluded such coverage. Maryland Attorney General Brian Frosh, who led the push for the law in 2013 as a state senator, said it’s “unthinkable that these weapons of war, weapons that caused the carnage in Newtown and in other communities across the country, would be protected by the Second Amendment.”

     Attention in both the mainstream and alternative media is presently focused upon potential US Russia war, which could happen at any time. However, the threat of yet another India vs Pakistan war may be more real:  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-07/india-builds-over-14000-bunkers-preparation-war-pakistan    https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/government-plans-14000-bunkers-to-shield-civilians-from-pakistan-fire/articleshow/63619130.cms

“The government will build 13,029 bunkers for individual households in five border districts in Jammu & Kashmir - Samba, Poonch, Jammu, Kathua and Rajouri - who face the wrath of shelling from Pakistani forces. Another 1,431 large community bunkers will be built, each of which can accommodate 40 people in these districts. The state-owned National Buildings Construction Corporation (NBCC) will build these bunkers in areas that lie within 3 kilometres from the border and are first in line of sight from international border or line of control (LoC). While each individual bunker of 160 sq feet will be enough to accommodate 8-10 persons, every community bunker can provide shelter to about 40 persons.”

     Coming from a hippie/alternative lifestyle position in the 1970s, to being Alt Right in my old age, I confess to having many friends who were “orange people,” followers of Osho, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh. Like many of the cults of the 1970s, this was Indian based, although the movement eventually went to the US where it imploded into murder and mayhem, all centred around the right hand woman of Ma Anand Sheela.  http://www.breitbart.com/social-justice/2018/04/09/leftists-are-celebrating-the-perpetrator-of-the-u-s-s-largest-bioterror-attack-because-shes-a-woman/

“To defend the Rajneesh movement from the overreach of the state of Oregon, Sheela organized the first and largest bioterror attack in United States’ history. After carefully cultivating salmonella, Sheela instructed her followers to secretly place it in food items at Oregon restaurants. 751 people were infected and 45 were hospitalized. For this crime, Sheela only served 29 months of a 20-year sentence in a California prison. Breitbart News highlighted a report last week from FiveThirtyEight that shined a light on the U.S. Sentencing Commission revelation that American women of all races receive shorter prison sentences than white men who commit the same crimes.”

     Well , some are now saying what I have been saying for years about the failure of the universities:  http://www.collapse.news/2018-04-14-professors-who-have-taught-college-courses-for-decades-say-system-is-broken.html   https://www.thecollegefix.com/post/43767/

     In an article entitled, “Slutty Sheep: Veteran Academics Warn College Students are going off the Rails,” it is said:

     Remember the Skripal-Russia-poisoned-them mania from the last crazy news cycle? That has fallen from the press now as the chatters eagerly promote World War III to relieve their hyper-affluence produced  world weariness. But, the Skripal affair was yet another poison hoax it seems, as the narrative has fallen apart:  https://www.rt.com/news/424149-skripal-poisoning-bz-lavrov/ 

“The substance used on Sergei Skripal was an agent called BZ, according to Swiss state Spiez lab, the Russian foreign minister said. The toxin was never produced in Russia, but was in service in the US, UK, and other NATO states. Sergei Skripal, a former Russian double agent, and his daughter Yulia were poisoned with an incapacitating toxin known as 3-Quinuclidinyl benzilate or BZ, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said, citing the results of the examination conducted by a Swiss chemical lab that worked with the samples that London handed over to the Organisation for the Prohibition of the Chemical Weapons (OPCW). The Swiss center sent the results to the OPCW.

     Cucked Deep State pet President Trumpet could have avoided open conflict with Russia by saying that Congress had to act, and that the UN Security One World Government had to give their approval for mass slaughter. Or, he could have stated the obvious, that like the alleged weapons of mass destruction that were supposed to be in Iraq, the US was not even sure what gas was used, so before killing people with bombs, we had best check things out, because after all, we are punishing a murderer and would not want to be a murderer as well. But, no.    https://www.rt.com/news/424153-un-security-council-syria-meeting/ 

     I thought about putting in Alex Jone’s rampage against Trump, but then I realised that it would not be suitable because it turned out to be just a four-lettered rage, without him using his freedom of speech to name those really behind all of this. Great acting though. Despite all of this bravado, the Russian-backed Syrian Air Defense knocked out 71 of the 103 missiles shot at it, a pretty good hit rate:  https://sputniknews.com/world/201804141063542460-russia-air-defenses-syria-us-missile-strike/ 

     My son pointed out to me the pun in the title, but I still just don’t see it. Never mind, I am old. With all the dirt being flung around abut Hollywood there is still the only slightly opened can of worms of paedophilia:  http://www.breitbart.com/big-hollywood/2018/04/13/movie-producer-mainstream-media-may-be-ignoring-signs-of-child-abuse-in-hollywood/ 

“Gabe Hoffman, the producer of An Open Secret, a documentary about child sex abuse in Hollywood, argued in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News this week that the mainstream media has historically ignored red flags about potential child abuse in the entertainment industry. Hoffman, a hedge fund manager by trade, is the producer of An Open Secret, an explosive 2015 documentary about child sex abuse in Hollywood. Speaking with Breitbart News this week about the film, Hoffman argued that, despite the recent #MeToo movement, the mainstream media doesn’t seem ready to cover Hollywood’s pervasive child abuse problem.

     Here I was using Goooooooogle Chrome with gay abandon, my balding scalp’s remain hair flowing in the IT breeze, and then there is this news:  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-04-13-google-chrome-browser-scans-all-the-files-on-your-computer.html

“Google has come under fire for many questionable actions as of late — and the startling revelation that their widely used web browser, Google Chrome, is scanning personal computers around the world is nothing short of infuriating for its users. Big Brother is here — and countless numbers of people have invited this authoritarian presence (in one form or another) while being none the wiser. Indeed, some of the world’s largest corporations (like Google and Amazon) are continuing to find new ways to invade user privacy. In addition to a spying web browser, devices like Google Home and the Amazon Echo (and Alexa) are going places where the prying eyes of corporate interests have never gone before.

     In article after article at this site, I told you so:  http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/04/13/gallup-u-s-catholic-church-attendance-drops-during-pontificate-of-pope-francis/ 

“Catholic Church attendance in the United States fell by six percent between the pontificates of Pope Benedict XVI and Pope Francis, the sharpest drop in decades, a new Gallup poll has revealed. An average of 39 percent of U.S. Catholics attended church weekly during the heart of the Francis papacy, from 2014 to 2017, Gallup found in a survey released April 9, which represents a significant drop from the 45 percent of Catholics who attended weekly Mass from 2005 to 2008, in the early years of the Benedict pontificate. Weekly Mass attendance among American Catholics had stabilized in the mid-2000s at around 45 percent, after falling sharply during the period comprising the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) and its aftermath, which many Catholics experienced as a time of confusion and upheaval.”

     Witness the impossible:  http://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-43749676

“An Australian telecommunications company has apologised for posting a job advert that stated a preference for “Anglo-Saxon” candidates. Optus, the nation’s second-biggest provider, had included the description in a posting about a vacant position in a Sydney store. The advert was shared on social media, where it was criticised as racist. Optus responded by removing the posting and saying it would investigate the “completely unacceptable” error. “[We] will be investigating how this occurred with a view to taking disciplinary action against those involved,” spokesman Vaughan Paul said in a statement. Mr Paul said it violated the company’s values, and was a breach of advertising standards. Social media users were angered by the advert.”

     Readers will know that I have no love for Trump seeing earthworms as infinitely more useful than him. Indeed, these fine creatures work to preserve life, by eating “crap,” but Trump just produces toxic waste that drowns us morally. Nevertheless, for every one of his sins, Bill the boy  Clinton has a bigger one, yet he is given a free ride by the mainstream media, even while prezzy. Reflect upon this bias and then think about what would happen if the miracle occurred again and a real challenge to the evil Lords of Mordor became president.

     Of course, it will not happen. But, I have the fantasy; what if the ordinary folk said: to hell with it, I have spent five minutes on the net reading alternative media such as this, and will fight! I don’t care what happens to me or my consumer goodies. To hell with liberal individualism and hedonistic consumerism. I will joint the heroes of the past in a last stand. But, then something wakes me from my day dream, and I look at the happy shoppers in the supermarket, and know that this will all continue until it does not.  http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3427366/He-frilly-nightie-danced-playing-sax-Former-Miss-Arkansas-says-Bill-Clinton-bed-confided-Hillary-sex-women-fears-Hillary-vendetta-sleeps-loaded-semi-automatic.html    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BToL_G92lbc    http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2018/04/12/msm-breathless-over-non-reporting-of-unconfirmed-rumor-about-trump-fathering-child/    https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/725676/hillary-clinton-lesbian-bill-clinton-dolly-kyle-the-other-woman-president-election

     Wow, what a pessimistic lot we are this week. I put it down to lack of alcohol rather than coming nuclear annihilation, but then the thought occurred to me after seeing the below article, that I was talking gibberish. I explain. What is it like to suddenly discover that not only are you dead, but that you have been dead for a long time, all the while thinking that you were really alive? That is the story of my life, or is it death?  https://www.theguardian.com/science/2018/apr/12/one-extra-glass-of-wine-will-shorten-your-life-by-30-minutes

“Drinking will shorten your life, according to a study that suggests every glass of wine or pint of beer over the daily recommended limit will cut half an hour from the expected lifespan of a 40-year-old. Those who think a glass of red wine every evening will help keep the heart healthy will be dismayed. The paper, published in the Lancet medical journal, says five standard 175ml glasses of wine or five pints a week is the upper safe limit – about 100g of alcohol, or 12.5 units in total. More than that raises the risk of stroke, fatal aneurysm (a ruptured artery in the chest), heart failure and death. The risks for a 40-year-old of drinking over the recommended daily limit were comparable to smoking, said one leading scientist.

     Here is the next frontier, to crack down on home schooling to allegedly deal with “extremism”:  https://www.jihadwatch.org/2018/04/uk-government-to-crack-down-on-homeschooling-to-fight-extremism    http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/04/11/government-crackdown-homeschooling-extremism-fears/ 

“The government is set to crack down on home schooling amidst concerns that some out-of-school education settings are failing to promote its liberal definition of “British values”. Parents who want to home school their children could be forced to register with local authorities and be made subject to inspection, according to a government report published Tuesday raising the prospect of prosecution for families which failed to comply. Seeking views over the next 12 weeks with regards to strengthening regulation around home schooling, the consultation was launched as part of the government’s “Counter-Extremism strategy to enable intervention in out of school settings”. Under the proposed regulatory system, any family taking their child out of mainstream schooling in the UK would have to explain their decision and demonstrate that children were being given an appropriate education at home.”

The Forecasts will Fail, The Cold will Prevail, King Coal will be Crowned Again. “Unless we stop using coal And force green energy goals, The ice sheets will melt Big droughts will be felt And islands will sink in a hole.” But the sun refused to conform And blizzards became the new norm. Green energy failed The warmists were nailed And King Coal he grew strong in the storms.

     I teach maths and physics, so I did not notice this at first, but my friend who teaches year 12 chemistry pointed this out:  https://www.rt.com/news/423627-russian-military-checks-chemical-douma/ 

     Have a close look at this photo of an allegedly gassed child being washed by a medico. Notice that no gloves or protective clothing are on the person washing. The gas is super-toxic, and the washer would be contaminated. Yet, he washers away as if it is Saturday night in the bathhouse. Something is very wrong with this picture. Last April Syria allegedly used sarin nerve gas, and the workers washed away without protective gear as well. Now, bets are being hedged that chlorine may be the gas instead:  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/does-it-matter-what-kind-of-gas-was-used-in-the-latest-syria-attack/

     I remember as if it was yesterday, even though it was back in the prehistoric era of 2004 … Zucky of Face the book fame saying that people handing over their info to him via Facebook were dumb oh, he said a very rude word not in Uncle Len’s vocab. But I have heard this word, on the streets, in bars, outside schools, and puzzle over its meaning. Anyway, that’s for another day, or another life.   https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/2018/04/10/b72c09e8-3d03-11e8-974f-aacd97698cef_story.html?utm_term=.44525845545e

     So, after all of this Zucky just tells the US political system that he is sorry, and all is forgiven. No matter that he is doing a Georgey Soros and using his organisation as a political weapon:  http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/04/09/report-establishment-media-soaring-on-facebook-conservative-media-in-decline-following-algorithm-change/   http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2018/04/09/report-establishment-media-soaring-on-facebook-conservative-media-in-decline-following-algorithm-change/

     Aristotle attempted to give a scientific account of the differences between people. Hence he is bad, and so are we., blah, blah. If this was a student essay: given a high distinction, degree with Honours, receives postdoctoral fellowship, then swift move up the ladder to full professor. Spend career slamming white racism and anything white. Receive great salary at taxpayer’s expense. Retire in boomer luxury while the West slides down.

     Here is a very good article, one which speaks for itself by leading US law scholar, Alan Dershowitz, about the invasion of the FBI into Trump’s lawyer’s office, searching for dirt on the latest Trump scandal. The learned professor, tells us here about the constitutional consequences of the raid, and the relationship between the Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Amendments. To briefly explain: the Fourth  Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures; the Fifth Amendment protects  individual’s against being witnesses against themselves, and the Sixth Amendment deals with rights in criminal trials, such as the need for a speedy trial.  https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12154/donald-trump-michael-cohen

“The Fifth Amendment is an exclusionary rule. By its terms, it prevents material obtained in violation of the privilege of self-incrimination from being used to incriminate a defendant – that is to convict him of a crime. But the Fourth and Sixth Amendments provide far broader protections: they prohibit government officials from in any way intruding on the privacy of lawyer/client confidential rights of citizens. In other words, if the government improperly seizes private or privileged material, the violation has already occurred, even if the government never uses the material from the person from whom it was seized. Not surprisingly, therefore, firewalls and taint teams were developed in the context of the Fifth Amendment, not the Fourth or Sixth Amendments.

     We must all be feeling truly sad about this one, which the Americans are calling a “freak accident.” I sincerely hope that they are not making fun out of this, because these muscle tears are extremely painful and nothing to be laughing about, because they can end a sports career, as I found out, when I slipped over in the bath many decades ago, ending my bowls career:  http://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2018/04/09/transgender-female-loses-weightlifting-championship-freak-accident/ 

     Anyway, former male athletes who transition to women, and compete in women’s sports seem to be doing just fine, smashing record after record. This is surely a victory for anti-discrimination, and perhaps one day soon, ALL women’s sport will be dominated by such wonderful athletes, which will advance gender rights by light years. How could coaches of women’s sports possibly, by any stretch of the imagination, be objecting to this great advancement in gender diversity? It utterly mystifies me.
