It’s just a mask. Don’t be a jerk. It’s for the greater good.
It’s just a vaccine. Don’t be a jerk. It’s for the greater good.
In four months, the United States was transformed into an obedient socialist country. The government dictated what events were acceptable to attend. Violent protests that instill fear are OK, but church services, family funerals and patriotic events are dangerous. AND YOU BOUGHT IT! Without a fight.
Standing in a graduation line is a safety hazard. Small businesses were forced to close, but crowds to support the corporate money machine at Walmart, Home Depot and Lowe’s are OK. Come on! It’s just a mask and safety precautions.
How about a little hush money? Here’s $2400 we stole out of your paycheck in the first place. Enjoy. Buy something with it from a big corporation.
Cash is dirty. We can’t give change. There is a coin shortage. Use your card. In four months, they convinced you to use a traceable card. For EVERYTHING.
In less than four months, government closed public schools, and completely restructured public education under the guise of public safety.
In less than four months, the government demonstrated how easily people assimilate to guidelines that have no scientific premise whatsoever! When you are fearful.
In less than four months, the government has successfully instilled fear in the majority of the population of America that allows them to control every aspect of your life including what you eat, where you go, who you see and your toilet paper.
And the most terrifying part? They are not afraid of the government who removed their freedom. They are afraid of their neighbors, family and friends and they hate those that will not comply. It’s absolutely terrifying to me that people don’t question authority. They are willing to surrender their critical thinking skills and independence. They just gave up without thinking… without a fight.
Do you know what’s coming next? It’s just a vaccine. It’s for the greater good. Wait until you are told you can’t enter any store or business without PROOF of a Covid 19 vaccine. Wait until you can’t go to public events, or get on a plane without proof of a Covid 19 vaccine. Don’t think it’s possible?
You’re already allowing the government to tell you when you can go outside, where you are allowed to go and blindly accepted a new unproven digital education for your kids in the last 120 days.
You followed blindly because you were told to do so.
You’re kidding yourself if you don’t think the next mass behavior won’t be repeated with a vaccine or whatever the next step is.
I don’t follow politics. I don’t care about that stuff. I don’t think about it.
Six million Jewish people were killed in Nazi Germany because 97% of the population cowered to populace control. Nobody wanted to think about it. It’s easier just to ignore.
But that couldn’t happen here, in America, right?
They got you. Without a thought. Without a fight. Just like France. Just like Russia. Just like China.
Welcome Comrade!
… because we allow you to be there.
It’s a matter of math.
When I was a police officer I worked in a city with approximately 100,000 people. At any given point we had 12 – 15 police officers on the street. This of course varied by the time of day and day of the week.
Detention facilities are the same. The detainee to jailer ratio is insanely lop sided in favor of the detainees.
In both scenarios, the law enforcement officers and jailers remain alive ONLY because their constituents allowed them to remain that way.
It would be beneficial for elected officials to understand this ratio. You remain alive only because your constituents allow you to. If the general public wants you gone, given enough drive, you will be gone.
See THIS ARTICLE and you will understand.
I was looking back over the last 40 years or so of being associated with the military, either active or simply by being in a military town. And I started laughing.
On social media, there are no pulled punches when it comes time to members of various branches poking fun at each other. The same was true “back in the day” when various members of various branches would run into each other out in town.
This happens with the Navy and Marines more often than not since those two groups end up in foreign ports of call together with more opportunities to jab each other in the ribs. Some of these gatherings can be rather epic.
There will always be poking the bear moments when one group has had enough of the shenanigans of the other and it boils over into a physical altercation. Usually no one gets hurt, some end up in the pokey, but as a rule the next morning they are sitting in a restaurant drinking coffee and looking at each other’s black eyes and laughing.
All this leads up to a “sea story”. Sailors and Marines know what that is.
We were in a little town called Portsmouth, England. Port city, English naval town. Nice place with a lot of things to do during the day but only one thing to do at night. Consume copious amounts of alcoholic beverages.
Such was the case one evening. There was a local gathering spot where Royal Marines and Sailors and American Marines and Sailors were all gathered together eating fish and chips and drinking pints faster than the bartender could pour them.
A US Sailor and a US Marine standing at the bar exchange some words and the brewhaha is on. This of course clears the tables now there are many Sailors and Marines scrapping it up in the bar. A good time was being had by all. But then…
A Royal Marine felt he was slighted when a Sailor bounced into his table and spilled his pint. So he steps in and clocks the US Sailor.
The basic mentality is, we can beat the shit out of each other but you “outside mother fuckers” need to keep in your own world.
As soon as the Royal Marine laid hands on the US Sailor, everything stopped. You could hear a pin drop. Then the entire US contingent turned like rabid dogs on the Royal Marines (and Royal Sailors because, well they were Royal Sailors) and all hell broke loose. The entire establishment was fighting. Everyone was Kung Fu fighting.
It didn’t take long for the US Shore Patrol, Portsmouth Constabulary, Royal Military Police to show up and men (and a few women) were being physically chucked out into the street to be scooped up and brought back to their respective commands. Some via a medical facility but nothing serious. Closed eyes, fat lips, fingers twisted off in funny directions. No one would die.
The next day, almost to a person, the same group is all hanging around, black eyes, fat lips and all and laughing joking and grab assing like old pals.
Times were good. Life was simple. Memories were short.
And for the record, the other 3 branches don’t have to chime in on this. Your perceived rivalries do not compare to the awesomeness that is the rivalry between the Navy and Marines.
