The heck with making school kids wear masks in school. Start handing out the candy cigs and let them chew-off some of that political “science” stress inflicted on them these last two years.

“Anyone care for a smoke?”

Only devout “Band of Brothers” fans will get that.

The dirty dozen: When our government on the local level operates for the criminals at the expense of their victims, and future victims…

This is just one criminal’s collage of mug shots in the picture book history of his lengthy career rap sheet. The news is saying now that those mug shots were just from his time living in South Carolina, so, assume more. If he is captured, he will add another. This is not an outlier with our justice systems across the nation. Every time one of these horrific stories hits or newsfeeds it is a safe assumption, they too have a mugshot photo album of remembrance. He was out on a $1000 bond. Just a reminder that the bastard that mass murdered and badly injured participants and spectators in the Waukesha Christmas parade too was out on $1000 bail. And these are just ridiculously low-bail examples. If you commit crime in New York city there is a growing series of stories of their failed ‘no bail’ policies.

This is just one criminal of many who pop up in the news these days. This is systemic lawlessness and societal anarchy created by and rewarded by a systemic failure of a politicized justice system around the nation’s cities, and it now has contributed to ending this hardworking law-abiding young citizen’s life…

Michael Ruiz, Rebecca Rosenberg: Los Angeles police ID Shawn Laval Smith as suspected killer of Brianna KupferShawn Laval Smith, 31, should be considered armed and dangerous, according to the LAPD

And the SOB felt so empowered from the broken system that he was seen shortly after killing the innocent woman, who actually texted a friend to express concern with the man when he came into the store, that he went to a quick-stop to feed one of his other needs.

Side note here: These are career criminals with a huge stack of repeat offenses — many violent — and they’re out on either low or no bail. And this is also practiced in Washington D.C. … you know, where a Hell of a lot of Americans who dared be among the January 6 protest at the Capitol have been jailed without bail, no formal charges, no hearings, no communication with their families for going on a year now. And Julie Kelly of American Greatness on Glenn Beck’s radio program yesterday reports that most of the J6 people incarcerated in DC and in other jails in the country have NO previous crime records. They weren’t armed. They didn’t kill anyone. Most were simply walking around amid the crowd, outside and inside the building. Let that sink-in, folks.

What do tyrants do when their ship is sinking or, more accurately, when they realize that their house of cards will not hold up? They divert their populace by starting a war — or at least allowing one to happen. War isn’t simply a way of diverting attention, either. The very fact of a war emergency makes it far easier to erode or negate whatever civil liberties still exist. Think: PATRIOT Act…

BONUS:

Ya know how the left in this country keep demanding that everything should be “free” (actually, paid for by our working/taxpaying population then stolen by the government to distribute as they deem necessary to the masses)? Yeah, this is what that looks like, y’all. Now imagine your ‘slice of the pie’ with everything else provided by the government. Oh, and you’ll NOT be allowed to self-strive for more. Ask anyone in Cuba and other socialist/communist utopias…

Nicole Pelletiere: High school lunch photo shared by NY dad has parents concerned: One Facebook user commented that the serving looked like ‘toddler portions’ while another, who works at a school, said ‘portions are regulated’

Chris Vangellow, a dad of four, spoke with Fox News about the post, which is garnering attention from parents in his upstate New York community.

Vangellow said all of his children attend Parishville-Hopkinton Central School District and his 16-year-old son has been sending him pictures of the lunches he has been served at school in recent months.

“He started complaining that lunch was ‘not enough,’” Vangellow told Fox News, adding, “one of my other kids also sent me the same picture, and I knew they had a game coming up. I was thinking, ‘If there’s kids playing basketball, this is not enough for him. I know we don’t live in a very rich area…some kids rely on the school [for lunch].’”

On Jan. 12, Vangellow posted an image to Facebook of the food his son was served for lunch: four chicken nuggets, a side of carrots, a side of rice and a carton of fat-free chocolate milk. He wrote that one of his other children didn’t have any “dry tasteless carrots” because none were apparently available when he arrived to his lunch period.

“They have been complaining that since the lunches are now free for everyone, the portions have dropped,” Vangellow wrote on Facebook. “I got this photo today. It really is ridiculous. Don’t come at me with the “‘You get what you pay for’ or ‘just send them with food’ crap either.”

“Yeah we can do that and sometimes the kids do choose to bring something from home or will buy extra lunch to get more in them to get them through a day,” he continued in the post. “The problem is that not all families can do that.”…
