February 14, 2022: Never ever ever trust politicians with power.

The freezing of the assets of peaceful protesters in Canada is despicable.
It also should not be surprising. FDR literally seized gold. Obama canceled senior debt.
In Cuba, Russia, China, Venezuela and on and on, leftists think nothing of violating private property rights, using state power to commit theft on a grand scale.
It is immoral. It erodes trust.
Every one of us should take notice. If you are relying on banks or corporations to preserve your freedom, you will lose. If you want to take care of yourself, rely on God and people you trust and seek to be as self sufficient as possible.
Store up food. Have freedom from the grid if possible. Have a plan to protect those in your care, for the grasshoppers will surely charge the anthill when hungry times come.
2 wrongs don’t make a right, but you cannot point to the equivalent action from the right. Billions of dollars in property damage from protesters and lots of violence and the corporations gave money to a movement that did nothing to help people. The politicians who said we all needed to stay inside and mask up, suspended the rules to march in solidarity.
If it is on the left, the elites will support it.
If it is not, they will lie, and cheat and steal to try to stop it.
I do think this cycle in the fall will be a historic denunciation of the thieves and bums and liars who rule DC, rule the monopolies they created and protected with K street lobbyists etc.
By December, any politician who is not supporting the end or racism (including CRT), who is not supporting freedom of speech and association (for everyone), who is not investigating the origin of the pandemic and holding to account those who funded it and enabled it, should be in a tiny and ignored minority who we note for being dangerous and untrustworthy statist clowns.
Sometimes on some issues there are no good and bad guys, just genuine differences of opinion. There are other instances of moral truth.
Abortion is wrong.
Lying is evil.
Partiality is sin.
Supporting our geopolitical foes is not being a good globalist, it is treason against our country.
God will not be mocked.
I am saddened to see that Canada is not a free country. I am committed to seeing America remain the land of the free and the home of the brave.
February 13, 2022: TSA is killing people with security theater that is actually making us less safe.
Further, examining 20 years of security theater, it is very bad news indeed for the proposition that Americans will not put up with COVID restrictions that are ineffective and harmful.
Omicron is not stopped by cloth masks. Terrorists are not unable to get weapons through security (red checks have proven over and over that weapons get through).
There are real costs in absolute lives to a pathetic security system that refuses to do the things necessary to make us safer. It is not the fault of a TSA agent that they are required to operate under incredibly stupid and ineffective rules that treat an 82 woman from Iowa as is if she may be the next Richard Reid (Abdel Raim) trying to blow up a plane with bomb shoes.
Have you ever thought about how much life is lost waiting in lines at the airport? From an article linked below:
“Those 738 million hours lost are equivalent to the remaining lives of some 2,582 people!”
When we know things like virtual schooling are harmful for children who are also at lower risk of dying from COVID than they were pre COVID from flu, when we know cloth masks don’t work but we are being required to wear them, we can hope that common sense would stop people busy doing things that do not help make us safe.
The sad lesson from TSA is security theater is unlikely to end. We can and should do better when it comes to rules related to COVID that have been proven to be ineffective.
