Alma’s Thoughts From Tupelo Brake

I got a text the other day that said a kid in a Catahoula Parish school was identifying as a cat, hissing at people, and spitting on them. When some clever kids started barking at the cat, they were told to stop or they could be expelled for harassment. Now, you tell me, who’s the …

Three Years Ago

Three Years Ago “It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grammes a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be REDUCED to twenty grammes a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after …

Once Again, the #Woke Credentialed Media Don’t Want to Cover the Story

As we reported on Saturday, some of the credentialed journalists, journolists as we see them, really don’t like it when other journalists do something really radical like report the facts. The spelling ‘journolist’ or ‘journolism’ comes from JournoList, an email list of 400 influential and politically liberal journalists, the exposure of which called into question …

Go Green-Recycle the White House

Biden gaffes

Corruption and incompetence is everywhere in Washington, but it all starts at the White House, where the buck stops. It is the most amazing political phenomenon I have ever seen.  Every one I have observed in the Biden presidential administration can be called either incompetent, dishonest or both, with some even freakish. If dumb begets …

Democrats Are Losing It on Biden After He Flip-Flops on DC Crime Bill: ‘F****** AMATEUR HOUR’

In January, the District of Columbia City Council unanimously passed a crime bill which, among other things, would reduce the penalties for violent crimes such as carjackings, robberies, and gun-related crimes. Because Washington, D.C., is not a state, legislative decisions must be approved by Congress before they can be enacted. It’s important to note that …

Don’t Waste Time and Money Trying For a Death Sentence Which Will Never Be Carried Out

Sergeant Mark Fusetti is a retired Philadelphia Police officer, who last served on the Warrant Squad, and one of my electronic friends. His major concern right now — other than helping his friend Sam Oropeza get on the ballot for a Philadelphia City Council At Large seat — is crime in the City of Brotherly …

This Is What Happens When People Elect a Soft-on-Crime Prosecutor

With some major cities saddled by George Soros-sponsored “progressive” chief prosecutors, law enforcement officials whose goals are not to protect the public, but to keep criminals out of jail, sensible people have been trying to take action. Endorsed by such liberal luminaries as as Senatore Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Cooks County State Attorney Kim Foxx, and …

My View About Biden.

    My View About Biden. With all the usual trappings of what we still claim as a constitutional republic, maybe we do still have, maybe we don’t, I offer what I see as what we should have been doing all along, should be rigorously defending all those things that our Founders put in those two beautiful …

Here’s the question the 51 spies who signed pre-2020 election letter must be asked under oath

Former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper offered a stunning excuse last week for his role in coordinating a letter that discredited the Hunter Biden laptop story as having “all the hallmarks” of a Russian disinformation campaign. His attempted deflection is almost certainly due to increased scrutiny from a Republican-led House that’s determined to hold …

Elections And War

     Elections and war; Whose rules does a successful military use to win battles? Is it the enemy’s rules? I’m asking because some seem to think, in politics, that we should play by the opponent’s rules.      Someone, somewhere else, came up with the idea that we should begin to march as our opponents …

The Police Are Short-The Politicians Are Not Helping

Between the micromanagement, the 20/20 hindsight judgements and the “help,” from the politicians, people don’t want to be cops anymore. In an earlier post on AFNN I made the point that Body Worn Cameras (BWC) have, for the most part, been a positive for policing. More times than not, when an alleged infraction occurs, it …

Making Good Arguments

Time For The NFA To Fall

     I’ve seen and heard all the lame defensive arguments and responses to when Lunch Bucket Joe cries “Ban Assault Weapons!” People just start playing their cards like morons and start defending inarguable positions, like “A semi-automatic rifle fires one bullet with each pull of the trigger”, and they always miss the fact that that …

Once Mayoral Candidates Wanted to Bypass Larry Krasner, The Philadelphia Inquirer Leapt to His Defense

Yup, I expected this. Despite the tremendous rise in crime, the Editorial Board of The Philadelphia Inquirer endorsed District Attorney Larry Krasner for re-election on Monday, May 9, 2021, a day in which the City of Brotherly Love was reporting 183 homicides thus far that year, 46 more than the same day the previous year, …
