Pointed sticks? Ho, ho, ho. We want to learn how to defend ourselves against pointed sticks, do we? Getting all high and mighty, eh? Fresh fruit not good enough for you eh? Well I’ll tell you something my lad. When you’re walking home tonight and some great homicidal maniac comes after you with a bunch of loganberries, don’t come crying to me!

You wrote: “Unless martial law is declared, the commies better be very careful.”

Awhile back, I was reading the autobiography of a urban revolutionary who was active in the US in late 1970’s.

His group had decided that the time was right to start an armed revolution and bring down the government. But after deliberation, the group decided against it.

Can you guess why? I’ll give you a hint. The reason was not a sentence, or even a word, but three initials.

They were afraid of the NRA.

Exactly!!! AND there is no end of seditious and dangerous political entities who feed them perpetual drivel about being exploited, disadvantaged, underserved, oppressed, etc.

It is the same nauseating story everywhere. In the US, where opportunities, resources and nearly endless assistance abound, the monotonous repetition of demands and complaints from this element is maddening!!!

My philosophy has always been: If you can’t succeed in AMERICA with all the educational, economic, social employment opportunities, then you are completely lazy and near-imbecile!!!

You mean “Asian”.

re: Entitlement Zombies vs. Royal Parasites. Who’s a guy supposed to root for?

In this case I am rooting for the Royal Parasites. Personally, I can’t stand either Charles or Camilla, but they should be able to drive in London without being attacked by a mob.

When I heard the incident being described on the radio, particularly how the car took a wrong turn and found itself in the middle of rioters, I thought it sounded eerily like what happened in another royal couple in Sarajevo in 1914.

I am unimpressed with police in this stormy situation. A few well placed high pressure water hoses on a very cold day would have saved a lot of trouble. Hose them into the gutter. Common sense seems to be lacking.

Camilla likes to keep her head out the window when they drive around.

Now that's funny, I don't care who you are.

“Coming to America”

Yep. Imagine every public housing project in the country burning down their surrounding neighborhoods when then welfare gravy train derails.

There is something fishy about those two driving into the riot with a window down.

IMHO, nothing fishy, just dumb.

Neither one of them are the brightest bulb in the fixture.

Did she get hit with the ugly stick again?

Talk about beating a dead horse.

Heard on BBC News this morning that one of the windows had been busted out by the rioters

I heard the same thing.

I'm sure that security is very, very interested to hear that, being that it should be bulletproof glass and all. Doesn't that glass break down and need replacing often?

Fortunate that they only got attacked by a bunch of dumb disorganized anarchists, rather than someone really intent on causing damage.

I certainly hope you are right. And I suppose such unease and unrest as we have now is not necessarily a harbinger of something more insidious...it's just that it seems everything is in such a state of flux and logic seems to play no part in all that is happening.

yep. Hard to imagine Rodney King X 100 different cities. Hopefully it never comes to that.

'Tis one reason why I don't live in the city anymore. I don't pretend to be completely safe where I am, but I figure that there are a lot of miles between me and MLK Blvd....a wide DMZ makes for good neighbors.
