Shitty People and Other Stupid Ideas

   Ya' Know? I have finally reached that point in life where I can relate to the infamous words of Capt. Jean Luc Picard of The Enterprise when he said, "I have more years behind me than ahead of me." At 50, It is a sure  bet. I just hope to live long enough to be a pain in my children's asses. I think about the plusses of being older. For instance, I can ogle a young woman and get away with it. Even my wife does not care. I mean, think about it? Like, that 20 something with the bubble butt is going to jump up and run away with the likes of a guy like me! I can call out things as I see them and most people will dismiss me as being 'just old'... Dumb-asses..
    I have also come to discover (and arrive at) a few epiphanies. The first  is that I have met (primarily) alot of shitty people out there in my lifetime. I have met 'freaks and scaries, dikes and fairies' ( Alvin Lee). 99 % of every problem I have ever faced in my life was either the direct result of, or the indirect result of the shitty people who have crossed my path. I reject the axiom of "You should have known better!" Should have known better?  How could I have known better when I had no clue in the first place? Aren't we taught as children to always look for the good in people?
 Screw that!

    I have taught my kids to always be wary of the other person and as a result my boys have made good choices in friends and relationships because they have a set the bar extremely high for themselves. In fact, I would venture to say that the people I have met of character and caliber are the one's I have met in The Liberty Movement. Possibly because they might feel the same as I do about shitty people. I certainly can count several friends along the way who have helped and influenced my life along the way. We have all departed company for the pursuit of our own lives and that is as it should be. I have also made enough of my own mistakes to know that I would enjoy a chance to make some amends to some people. I must also make clear that my own family are probably the only really good friends I will ever have who will see me right to the end.
    I must say, though, the shittiest people I have met have all been associated with law enforcement and or government. I cannot , for the life of me, remember any good encounter with any one from the field of 'government (a-choo!) service' except for two Northborough cops who I will not name. They were good men at the time and I pray they have remained so. Every Judge I ever had to face was a complete dick! Having raised three children I have had the unfortunate experience of a few visits from Social Services. Every one of them should be put on a leaking boat just prior to a typhoon.
    That includes most of the teachers in my life except three. I had one teacher call me stupid as well as telling my mother I was stupid... The town named a school after him... Figures.. I had another teacher who was a dead ringer for the teacher in the Pink Floyd Movie 'The Wall'. My sons lucked out better except for a few turds I couldn't flush. Their Principal, on the other hand, was a complete Leftist stooge and caused me no end of grief. My daughter is experiencing that now at her school and I have already written that blog post three times.
    Where is the random act of violence when you need one?

    There are a few criteria to remain vigilant of in assessing the level of shitty-ness in a person. Oddly enough the things I list will only apply to the shitty people. I am sure we have all met people with the same  descriptions who were perfectly fine people which makes understanding this conundrum ever more difficult.

Money: Most people with money are shitty people. The difference is that nice people with money all earned it the hard way and tend to help others. The shitty people most likely inherited it or were lucky and fell into it. Celebrities tend to fall into this catagory. Legislators who scam the system also fall under this column.

 The Self Righteous: These people really take the cake. They always feel it is their 'responsibility' to get involved in some one else's life and fuck it all up. Religious zealots are prime candidates. 'Concerned Citizen' groups and voting rights activists also win a prize. Virtually any advocate who will look at you and determine you unworthy of being left alone and who will entangle you in every accusation for not following the rules. I am quickly running out of space in my back yard to hide all of those bodies.

Retail: Now, I must be careful here because my wife works retail and I have a long work history there as well. The difference is she and I always do the best we can to provide a service and stand by what we sell and what we provide. But, have you ever noticed the level of customer service today? Does any one actually know HOW to do their job any more? Have you also noticed how everything today is a fight? You have to fight to get the order correct, fight to get something replaced, fight to get re-imbursed. And every one of these shit bags has a rule. You cannot do this or that, you cannot just get your money back, you get a store credit so you are forced to buy more of their shitty products. Warranties are total BS, there is always a catch. Warranties only apply if the perfect lab conditions exist and then the product fails. God forbid we should actually expect something to perform as advertised.  They always tell you to act now and get 20% off today's purchase. Don't worry. Come back next week and they will have an equally shitty promotion to act upon.
    I do understand that we live in a litigious society today and most of the problems have been caused by shitty people sueing over the stupidest things (remember what I said about 99% of all your problems?).

Liars: People get paid to lie. Did you know that? Entire systems are created that prevent you from lying and will result in stiff fines or prison if you do. However, those same systems actually depend on the lies from those in the system in order for the system to exist. Most prosecutors get first place with law enforcement following a very close second. Fellow employees and employers also get a ribbon for runner up. What few nice people I have met in the work force have all been screwed over by the dicks they work with or the dicks who hired them. Any time the shit hits the fan the person pointing the finger at you will lie like a Muslim prayer rug. There have only been a couple times in my life where some A-hole employer got what was coming to them later on.
 I am proud to have played a part.

    Unions, City Workers, DMV, Inspection Officials, Slum Landlords and Bank Executives all get special commendations as well. Feel free to add at will. But by far, Liberals in general are the most insidious offenders because they can be found in every facet of society screwing the whole gear works up.

    Then there is the level of general stupidity. This, I can say, is at an all time high. We usually give bad grades to failing examples. However, I can safely say this example is at an all time historical high and shows strong signs of future growth in the industry. Few adults today posses the level of intelligence and deciphering as a fifth grader did in the early 1800's. Cognitive reasoning is nonexistent in most young people and an alarming number of adults. No one knows where they are going unless they have a GPS. No one under age 30 can read a map. Kids cannot spell worth a damn but can text like no tomorrow.. Have you ever read a 15 year old's text? Can you read it? Most of it is script and other forms of bad spelling.
    Illegals are the worst. Think about it for a second. If you are an immigrant, you most likely have an education or ran a business or were employed at a position of prestige. You filed paperwork, saved money in a bank, planned for the actual act of emmigating, got your affairs in order and made that long arduous journey to citizenship. You are more than likely a person of some intellectual semblence. If you are an Illegal though you more than likely posses none of the criteria I just alluded to. You are possibly one of the dumbest people on Earth to actually think paying some guy $5000 to be stuffed in a van with 30 other idiots and driven to the middle of no where given a back pack full of weed and told to run North was a good idea. I have met these people, worked with them. They operate on the most basic of limbic activity.
    And the people who think these idiots are just here for a better life are equally as idiotic. You don't see them itching to have the same experience do you?

    Because I live in the inner city I have a daily front row seat to the level of intellihencia displayed before me. The loud phone talker on the bus. Yes, I just dying to hear about your latest fight with your baby daddy. The home-boy rapping out loud at the library who is then offended when the librarian asks (or, should I say 'axes') them to be quiet. And what the hell is the obsession with black people and hair extensions? Then, there is the completely  disconnected ditz who blithely tosses their trash out their car window while sporting an Obama 2008 bumpersticker.
    Reality television celebrities and the hordes of the American braindead who follow them are a phenomenon that will keep neurologists confused for decades to come. Only in America could the average dunce know more about Kim Kardashian than they do about how to boil water. Ask a teenager to cook dinner for the family and the three things they will look for is a box from the store and a microwave or the phone to call Dominoes.

   Ahhh... Maybe it is just my age. Maybe I am lamenting the same lament lamented by elders since old men have begun lamenting. I know there are many who work very hard to improve their lives and watch over each other. After all, we are all just trying to get to Friday and survive the week. I think about families with sick children and who would give their souls to watch their dying children grow up to be silly and stupid. I am blessed in that I have intelligent kids who will just get more intelligent as they get older themselves.. God willing.
    What worries me is that they have a life ahead of them where the potential for meeting shitty people and encountering stupid ideas is a fore gone conclusion. They will have to learn to navigate those rough waters with few charts. Maybe this is the departure I have made from what my mother taught me (and it is sad) because she always taught me to look for the good in people and I have taught my children to be wary of people. My mother did what she did with the best of intentions and hope. I do what I do with those same intentions. I just pray I am not remembered as a shitty person with stupid ideas...

.... And That Is The Diatribe....

The Meat And Potatoes Show Makes No Apologies

    I was recently blocked from Facebook for over a week ending today Saturday the 22nd of February. I was blocked for an allegedly offensive statement I made on one of the group pages I belong to. The statement was racially charged but was in no way racist. Racism is a made up word anyways and I do not subscribe to political fantasy intended to pigeon hole an individual based solely on some one else's interpretation of what they find offensive.
    I have always maintained that I will always call out situations, people, ethnicities, religions and events as they really are, as they really happen. I will not placate with an imagined sensability foistered upon me by media or society in general. I do not care what any one thinks when they imagine in their empty heads that some how what I am saying is racist. If I see evil vile behavior perpetrated by evil vile people I am going to call what it is; evil and vile and I will associate the same words with the people involved as with the actions displayed by such people. Their actions remove any and all rights to be spoken of 'nicely'. However, to assume I think this way of all people from any walk of life is rediculous.
    I also reject, as patently absurd, the notion that my statements made on pages where I have been invited to speak on are some how associated with the guests who appear on my internet show.  To equate a guest on the MeatAndPotatoes2012 Youtube page with my association with groups I choose to be affiliated with is narrow minded and is symptomatic of the general devolvement of our national level of intelligence. My interviews are conducted in a professional manner and are outside my personal feelings. Especially feelings concerning events unrelated to the guest or the interview of that guest.
    The Meat And Potatoes Show has a strict 'no apologies' policy in regards such as this. We do not 'retract' statements because some one's feelings were hurt. That is their problem not mine. If I make a mistake or I am factually incorrect I will make the appropriate adjustment. I also heavily police my sites for any one who is openly anti Liberty, anti-Semetic, anti-gay or openly calling for violence against ethnicities simply because of the ethnicity.
    Well over 80 people have left my page as a result of this controversy. Good. They can go. M&P2012 has always skirted the edge and will continue to do so. I have not witheld any of this information from my members or my guests. I have the highest regards for those who continue to support my work and will continue to provide the content worthy of their inclusion.
    We are not a politically correct media outlet and we are a 'no apologies' media outlet. Thank you for reading this.

A Most Horrible Monster Under The Bed--Part III. Epilogue

  

  " To take a single step beyond the boundaries thus specially drawn around the powers of Congress is to take possession of a boundless field of power, no longer susceptible of any definition."

 Sect. of State Thomas Jefferson, 1790 in a letter to Madison concerning the creation of a central bank (Hamilton) that would exist outside the limits of The US Constitution or Congress.

"Republicans may not be the answer to all your problems but Democrats are definitely the cause of all your problems."

Dan Bongino, Radio Host. Former Secret Service.

   

    We have, not only, entered this 'boundless field.' We have been in it for quite some time now. It is commonplace today and we judge outcome based on a perversion of interpretation of the original construction of law. As Jefferson stated we are now under no rudder or steering guided by the tenets of our Constitution, or the specific rules set forth by the Constitution of our Congress. There is no                'susceptible definition'.
    In John Gibson's (Former FOX News anchor) book, "Swiftboating America" John sums up the Florida debacle.

   "The recount, undertaken at Gore's request, was confined to Democrat counties. This put Bush at an obvious disadvantage. The Constitution of the United States required each state to name its electors no later than Dec 12th."

    News footage followed. TV Helicopters shadowed Brinks trucks carrying ballots. The Florida SJC was in the spotlight but, it was Gore who took the issue to the Florida SJC in the first place and the court initially concurred with Gore and not Bush. That the Republican Sect. of State in Florida sided with Bush is another (and very typical) lie perpetrated by the Liberal Media.
    John Gibson goes on to write,

    " SCOTUS stated that, The Florida SC violated the Fourteenth Amendment, which assures equal protection under the law."

     It was all well and good for Al to only want Democrat districts recounted but that violated the rights of all the other districts to be recounted as well.
    John goes on to write.
    "The court (SCOTUS) said Florida couldn't declare legal a situation in which officials could recount votes one way at one table and across the room at a different table allow the use of different rules."

    This is what was going on! This is what actually happened! But the LSM went on the media hunt and (as we all heard ad-nauseum) Bush stole the election. Had the Gore campaign not demand such a narrow interpretation of the recount in Florida it is quite conceivable Gore would have won in 2000. The Supreme Court only decided a halt to the recount due (primarily) to the Democrat's shenanigans. Not because of a Republican majority on that Court and certainly not because the Florida Secretary of State was a Republican but (as we later learned anyways) as all recounts were tabulated Bush would have won the recount even if SCOTUS had not called a halt.
    The Democrats shot themselves in the foot. The Gore campaign bitched such a blue streak that all they did was draw attention to themselves and the shady dealings of the Florida DNC. And the Democrats are STILL shooting themselves in the foot. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled erroneously to bar President Trump from the 2024 election and then backtracked when the avalanche of media and public scrutiny crashed on their heads. Then (stunningly) the Secretary of State in Maine pulled the same bullshit and backtracked herself within hours.

    And this brings me to my summation. Voter fraud is a national trend perpetrated by Democrats. The 2020 election season was so blatant it is amazing no one has actually done anything about it. The fact that the election stood is testimony to the fraud and corruption of the entire system. What far and few attempts by local Republicans to tilt a vote is nothing more than just that, Far and few. This also brings me back to my opening statement. The RNC is on its own course of self-destruction. They play defense only and tend to eat their own. Democrats ALWAYS ban together regardless of opinions during the Primary season. Democrats are well armed politically and well on the offensive politically. Republicans choose to be more conciliatory. They keep trying to rebrand themselves with this self-deprecation. They play along to get along never realizing the Democrats will ALWAYS hate them. 

    Republicans run campaigns but Democrats OWN elections.

    If you do a Google or Bing search of 2020 Election Fraud you have to scroll through a couple pages of Leftist articles that swear there was NO voter fraud. But once you get to page 3-5 you begin to see what electronic media wants to throttle down (and for good reason).

    First of all, Conservatives must become an integral part of the election process on a mass scale. We need to create our own NOI/CTCL.  The Democrats are doing this already and hide behind the banner of 'equality' while doing everything in their part to stifle it from anyone who is not a Democrat! The Left will not blink an eye at baton wielding Black Panthers standing outside a polling station but a poll worker checking ID's is a racist (and will most likely be asked to leave by a police officer). So, we must also be there to ensure a fair and free election. No one should be asked to leave the ballots unattended. 

     Second, Conservatives must also get involved in the process from the beginning. Get onto an election board and point out past mistakes and do not stop pointing them out. Join anything connected with local government. Even if you are asked to leave, keep speaking. Ask a question at your next town meeting (be prepared to be escorted out by a cop). Then, write your local blogs and papers and social networks a complete dossier on what you have witnessed. Post everything, everywhere!!

    Third, join a Liberty movement in your area. If you cannot donate (time, protesting, money) then plant a campaign sign on your lawn. Challenge your kid's school- because they are now the indoctrination centers for the Progressive message to the next generation. Say "NO!" to any government official who knocks on your door to challenge you and back your arguments up with facts and history.

    Fourth, Conservatives must interject our Constitutionalist ideology upon America. Strict interpretation to the 'construction' as Jefferson has said. The Left has been using the Constitution to undo the Constitution since Wilson with Progressivism. Look where we are now?
     It may take us just as long.

    And Fifth, never surrender your resolve. Even in the face of defeat and threat of Liberty never surrender your resolve. There is no negotiation. Leftism and the model of Alinsky demands your surrender because the Left claims any opposition is extremism. Well then, be the extremist.

    Stop the damned infighting! The enemy is out there!

     Did you know that, in the winter of 1777 at Valley Forge, Washington almost lost his whole army? Some of his Commanders demanded he shoot the deserters. Washington said 'no'. Did you also know that not one of those men, were 'impressed' or 'conscripted'. How could Washington shoot men who stood up on their own accord?  They all volunteered. So, as they slipped away in the cold of that winter, Washington understood. There were many letters to Martha where our great General wished it for himself.
    Then came Von Schtubing. He claimed to be a military commander. He was not. He claimed to be well heeled in European Society. He was not. Who the hell was this guy? Why the fuck did he show up in the middle of New Jersey in the dead of winter and proceed to lie his way into training our militia?

     I wouldn't show up in Jersey for anything! And neither would you!
    He showed up because he believed in freedom. Von Schtubing was also no longer wanted in his former circle of elites. He saw an opportunity and he took it. Everything he ever did, he did himself.  He was almost like a virus. He showed up out of nowhere and began to become part of his host. And so should we. Be Von Schtubing and just show up to offer your service to this Republic. 
    Be that more horrible monster under the bed.
