A brief NFL reminder

Posted on by

Tim Tebow kneeling before God in 2011. Tebow bad. Kaepernick good. End of story.

Eric Reid of the San Francisco 49ers states that there is “systemic oppression” in the United States and the NFL. He stated this because Vice President Mike Pence, whilst attending the Colts and 49ers game last Sunday the 8th, left the stadium when 23 San Francisco players took a knee during the national anthem. Eric Reid said:

“This is what systemic oppression looks like,” he said. “A man with power comes to the game, tweets a couple of things out and leaves the game with an attempt to thwart our efforts. Based on the information I have, that’s the assumption I’ve made.”

In response, Vice President Pence said:

“I left today’s Colts game because President Trump and I will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our Flag, or our National Anthem.”

How quickly people forget some of these aspects.

2011: Tim Tebow “took a knee” for God whilst quarterbacking for the Denver Broncos and it was heresy, heresy I tell you. Tebow is a Caucasoid.

2013: Football coach Joseph Kennedy lost his job for kneeling at the 50-yard line after games. Perhaps he should have knelt during the national anthem. Is the difference simply a matter of timing?

Kennedy, an assistant high school coach in Bremerton, Washington, used to lead his team and staff in prayer in the locker room, and then prayed at the 50-yard line after games. Students would join him and the school district squashed that because Kennedy was endorsing a religion.

The district would allow Kennedy to pray at the 50-yard line after everyone had left the stadium.

Kennedy agreed to this, but eventually began praying before all the parents and students exited. He was suspended, and eventually fired.

Kennedy unsuccessfully sued the school district and was himself sued.

2013: The NFL fined Brandon Marshall $10,500 for daring to wear green cleats to raise awareness for people with mental health disorders. Marshall is black.

2014: Robert Griffin III entered a post-game press conference wearing a shirt that said “Know Jesus Know Peace” but was forced to turn it inside out by an NFL uniform inspector before speaking at the podium. Griffin is black.

2015: DeAngelo Williams was fined $5,787 for wearing “Find The Cure” eye black for breast cancer awareness. Williams is black.

2015: William Gay was fined $5,787 for wearing purple cleats to raise awareness for domestic violence. Gay is black.

2016: The NFL prevented the Dallas Cowboys from wearing a small decal on their helmet in honor of the five Dallas Police Department officers killed in the line of duty that year.

2016: The NFL prevented and threatened to fine players, like Avery Williamson, who wanted to wear cleats to commemorate the 15th anniversary of 9/11. Williamson is black.

So, Eric Reid, just who is oppressive and for what reasons?

I wrap with this quite telling quote from Colin Kaepernick, the instigator of the whole “sitting down” and “taking a knee” thingie. He’ll stand if he gets an NFL job.

Looks like Kaepernick doesn’t truly mind performing a bit of corporate fellatio when he benefits. Eh wot? Now that it got out, he’s walking it back of course. Too late, my callow friend.

Knowing that, I wonder how the rest of you football wonks feel about having been abandoned by your stone idol?

BZ’s Berserk Bobcat Saloon Radio Show, Tuesday, October 10th, 2017 with Dan Butcher

Posted on by

Featuring Right thinking from a left brain, doing the job the American Media Maggots won’t, embracing ubiquitous, sagacious perspicacity and broadcasting behind enemy lines in Occupied Fornicalia from the veritable Belly of the Beast, the Bill Mill in Sacramento, Fornicalia, I continue to proffer my thanks to the SHR Media Network for allowing me to utilize their studio and hijack their air twice weekly, Tuesdays and Thursdays, thanks to my shameless contract, as well as appear on the Sack Heads Radio Show each Wednesday evening.

We were lucky enough to spend the full two hours with media magnate Dan Butcher who had some exciting news to reveal: he has created an entirely new website and an entirely new branding. The High Plains Pundit, originally launched in 2009, has now transmogrified into The Lone Star News.

Dan has expanded and brought all of his sites into one larger site under the umbrella of Lone Star Media, featuring the best of all the others, constantly updated and improved by his expanding staff of writers.

The move was a natural progression into becoming a multi-platform media outlet. This translates to 16 million page views a month and 60,000 subscribers to the daily news letter. You can find the site broken down into these elements:

  • Lone Star News;
  • Lone Star Talk Radio;
  • Lone Star TV;
  • News & Commentary with Dan Butcher;
  • Reader forum;
  • News;
  • Opinion;
  • Texas;
  • National;
  • World;
  • Sports;
  • Podcast;
  • Video.

All in all, an amazing media site.

Dan and I then spoke about the current “state of the art” in media today. Besides being terribly sad, we agreed that new “journalistas” today have no interest in facts, but only an interest in nothing more than an agendized viewpoint in terms of attempting to “social justice” the world.

Tonight in the Saloon:

  • Thanks to Dan Butcher for his donation of two hours in the Saloon;
  • People crave news content;
  • The state of the art in journalism today;
  • Discussion of the death of Officer Floyd East Jr;
  • The ramifications of this officer death;

Columbus Day 2017

Posted on by

This is the state of our nation in 2017.

When NYPD posts officers to keep the Columbus statue on Columbus Circle free from those who wish to destroy it. Including faux Italian mayor De Blasio. Hello? Vowel?

From the NYDailyNews.com:

Protesters call for an end to Columbus Day, removal of NYC’s controversial statue

by Dale Eisinger & Graham Rayman

A handful of protesters demanded the removal of the Christopher Columbus statue — and the day honoring him — as the annual parade in his name took place Monday along Fifth Ave. in Midtown.

City Councilwoman Inez Barron and her husband, Assemblyman Charles Barron, stood at the base of the 115-year-old statue in Columbus Circle and said the name of the holiday should be changed to Indigenous People’s Day.

“As we say, Columbus only discovered that he was lost,” said the assemblyman, who plans to introduce a bill renaming the holiday in Albany. “He never discovered anything else. He called everybody Indians because he was looking for India. He was a colonizer. He was a racist. He was a murderer.”

Let me try to put this, initially, into perspective. I have said for decades and will write it here now: there is nothing whatsoever altruistic about any individual or any group of people.

Despite what Meryl Streep said, Harvey Weinstein was not god. Bill Clinton was an accused rapist. I even had my doubts about altruism and Mother Theresa. No one is perfect. Certainly not the flaked and wilted students occupying current American campuses yet they use their extreme focus of perfection on every situation and every individual that comes within their purvey. If persons — all persons at all points of history — do not comply with their optical views of perfection then those persons or situations must be destroyed. Removed, destroyed, eliminated. They cannot be present. All evidence of their once having been in their astral plane must be abolished.

If they could, ripped from the pages of every book published. Every drawing, every reference, every scintilla of documentation.

Including statues.

Cities including Los Angeles, Seattle, Minneapolis and the states of South Dakota and Hawaii have renamed Monday’s holiday to honor Native Americans.

From the DeilyCaller.com:

Reporting On Columbus Day Removal In LA Ignores Its Inclusionary History

by Will Ricciardella

Media coverage of the Los Angeles City Council vote Wednesday to remove Columbus Day from the city calendar completely ignores the holiday’s inclusionary history.

“The move to rename the holiday faced fierce opposition from Italian Americans who see Christopher Columbus and his arrival in the Americas as an important part of their culture” wrote Samantha Schmidt of The Washington Post. “Some opponents of the decision encouraged designating a day to honor indigenous and aboriginal peoples, while still observing Columbus Day.”

How quickly we forget history.

“The idea, lost on present-day critics of the holiday, was that this would be a national holiday that would be special for recognizing both Native Americans, who were here before Columbus, and the many immigrants—including Italians—who were just then coming to this country in astounding numbers” writes Dr. William J. Connell, a historian at Seton Hall University.

Among some of the early opponents to celebrating Columbus Day or erecting his statutes is none other than the virulently anti-Catholic, anti-Immigrant Klu Klu Klan. The KKK likened Columbus day to a papal plot, and burned crosses to threaten those who celebrated Columbus.

Revisionist history simply by decree. True or not, historically accurate or not.

The irony that Columbus Day was promulgated as an inclusionary holiday, intended to celebrate recent immigrants and the indigenous peoples that were here before, is too palpable for media outlets to ignore.

“It was to be a national holiday that was not about the Founding Fathers or the Civil War, but about the rest of American history,” writes Dr. Connell.

A relative of Columbus wrote at TheHill.com:

Columbus descendant pens op-ed defending Columbus legacy

A descendant of Christopher Columbus penned an op-ed published Monday defending Columbus’s legacy.

In the op-ed published in USA Today — titled “Hey America, my ancestor didn’t cause your failings” — Christopher Columbus XX wrote that history has some “truly evil people,” but his ancestor is “not one of them.”

“Most often, history is not made up of perfect people and evil ones, but of complex people who must be understood in context,” he wrote.

“What is happening at the hands of Columbus’ detractors is political, not historical. As his direct descendant and namesake, I should know.”

Columbus XX wrote that blaming his ancestor for everything that went wrong when two cultures met for the first time in 1492 “hides the truth about him” and “obscures the great things that the countries of the American hemisphere have accomplished.”

Columbus XX said Columbus did “something incredible” by reaching the Bahamas on board three small ships.

“Those who now question Columbus conveniently ignore the fact that slavery, cannibalism, warfare and even human sacrifice all existed in the Americas before he even sailed,” he wrote.

Damn, please, stop with the facts.

“Even so, some today blame Columbus for everything they dislike in U.S. history, despite the ample evidence that he was a moderating force on his men, and the fact that he sought to keep good manners and friendly relations with Native Americans.”

Columbus XX continued to tout the accomplishments of his ancestor, saying blaming Columbus “does his legacy a terrible injustice” and focuses people’s anger “on the wrong man.”

As per normal, Tucker Carlson isolates the issue and allow Leftists to use their own words to puncture their “arguments.”

Changing history.

The envelope is straining. Soon it may break.

Civil war prodded by Antifa elements?

Posted on by

Antifa vows to start a civil war on November 4th.

They have stated this in public and across numerous forms of social media.

This first from RefuseFascism.org:

November 4 It Begins: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!

From the Call for Nov 4:

… ON NOVEMBER 4, 2017:

We will gather in the streets and public squares of cities and towns across this country, at first many thousands declaring that this whole regime is illegitimate and that we will not stop until our single demand is met: This Nightmare Must End: the Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!

Our protest must grow day after day and night after night—thousands becoming hundreds of thousands, and then millions—determined to act to put a stop to the grave danger that the Trump/Pence Regime poses to the world by demanding that this whole regime be removed from power…

It’s at this point that I would highly recommend to each and every reader of this blog and listener to my radio show the book by Jamie Glazov entitled UNITED IN HATE, in which he lays out with example after example, evidence upon evidence, that the only systemic hate across the globe has been on the part of Leftists. The book is, naturally, then subtitled “The Left’s Romance With Tyranny and Terror.”

Antifa plans to start its war here.

More from RefuseFascism.org:

This Nightmare Must End:
The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!

In the Name of Humanity, We REFUSE to Accept a Fascist America!

A Nightmare:

Immigrants living in terror—their next step could mean detention, deportation, being torn from children and loved ones.

A Nightmare:

Muslims and refugees demonized, banned and cast out.

A Nightmare:

Millions—children, the elderly, disabled, the sick, the poor—denied healthcare, food assistance, the very right to live.

A Nightmare:

Women objectified, degraded, and denied the basic right to control their own reproduction, with fundamentalist Christian fascism increasingly being made law.

A Nightmare:

LGBTQ people stigmatized, ostracized, and denied civil rights recently won.

A Nightmare:

Black and Latino people openly threatened by the President, with maximum sentencing, stop-and-frisk going national, intensified police brutality and murder of our youth with no holds barred.

A Nightmare:

People all over the world facing bombings, occupations, war and the threat of nuclear war with Donald Trump’s “America First” finger on the nuclear trigger.

A Nightmare:

The truth bludgeoned—lies and more lies—critical thinking being destroyed in education and public discourse.

A Nightmare:

The whole planet in peril from a regime that denies global warming and shreds all environmental protections.

A Nightmare:

A regime step by step discarding basic democratic rights, targeting group after group, and suppressing dissent and resistance. A regime unleashing the violence of white supremacists, anti-semites, and fascist thugs. This is fascism—a qualitative change in how society is governed. History has shown that fascism must be stopped before it becomes too late.

THIS NIGHTMARE MUST END. Millions feel this and ache with the question of how to stop this unrelenting horror. The stakes are nothing less than the future of humanity and the planet itself.

Who will end this nightmare? We will. Only the determined struggle of millions of people acting together with courage and conviction can drive this regime from power.

The true nightmare, however, is for the American Taxpayer — who is expected to spoon-feed entitled illegal immigrant law-breakers, coddled and nannied Gen-Zrs living in mommy’s house, LGBTQ et al pronoun-amped queeroids, Religious Leftists, Muslim apologists and enablers and those who demand more Free Cheese than there are cows to meet the demand. All for nothing. No work. No product. Unilateral Give Me More. I demand it, I must have it, no one else matters and I will burn down your houses if I don’t get it.

But what do the American Taxpayers receive as a Return On Investment or ROI?

Nothing, save that of naked hatred, violence, threats, shaming, destruction of property, riots, anarchy and anything else that pops into the heads of GOWPs across the nation, entitled, puerile little festering beasts that act like spoiled fourth graders. And I apologize to fourth graders.

This gentleman then weighs in. Responses like this should not be unanticipated due to the continuous pushing of the Left. They simply do not know when to stop and let the sleeping giant be.

One should not be shocked because, as we already know, according to various Newton Laws, “for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.”

Then this from the DailyCaller.com:

Antifa Site: Actions Like Las Vegas Shooting ‘Will Only Escalate’ Due To ‘White Supremacy’

by Justin Caruso

It’s Going Down, a website that reports news on anarchism and antifascism, recently reposted comments on their Instagram account blaming “white supremacy” and “patriarchy” for the recent mass shooting in Las Vegas.

Many mainstream media outlets have also blamed white men or “white supremacy” for actions of Las Vegas mass shooter Stephen Paddock. 

Let’s watch Tucker Carlson and Ruben Navarrette.

Here is Ruben Navarrette’s article, “Why it’s time to start profiling white males.”

Is it so far-fetched to think that in some way Antifa, ISIS and anarchists couldn’t initially agree on some form of destroying America? I don’t think so. From NBCNewYork.com:

ISIS Sympathizers Planned to ‘Create the Next 9/11’ With Attacks on Concerts, Subways & Times Square: Feds

by Jonathan Dienst

One of the suspects allegedly told an undercover agent posing as ISIS sympathizer that “NY Needs to fall.”

Three men living outside the U.S. planned to attack concerts, Times Square and crowded subways in 2016 in an ISIS-inspired attack that one of the suspects said he hoped would be “the next 9/11,” authorities announced on Friday afternoon.

The FBI said the three men — Abdulrahman El Bahnasawy, a 19-year-old Canadian citizen; Talha Haroon, a 19-year-old U.S. citizen based in Pakistan; and Russell Salic, a 37-year-old orthopedic surgeon in the Phillipines — allegedly used chat apps to talk about bringing a car bomb into the Crossroads of the World, gunning down subway riders before detonating vests and opening fire on concertgoers in the vein of the Paris terror attacks of 2015.

“NY Needs to fall. This is a must,” Haroon allegedly wrote in a message to an undercover agent posing as an ISIS sympathizer.

Sound familiar? Last Sunday?

That said, this could all equate to, in the vernacular, a large “nothing burger.”

It all depends on how violent and insistent and disruptive Antifa and aligned Leftists decide to be.

And what we learn before November 4th.

Keith Olbermann should be branded a terrorist organization

Posted on by

You know, Herr Olbermann, a nice Teutonic name, mein Fuhrer.

He’s as rational as, say, Josef Mengele.

Cases in point. Olbermann objecting to Comey’s firing. I ask: what does an ahistorical German know about the Constitution or Bill of Rights anyway? Particularly in light of the NRA video below.

This is also Keith Olbermann.

My, how your mother must have frequently washed your mouth out with soap.

Then there is this from Olbermann’s “The Resistance” series. As in: “The NRA should be branded a terrorist organization.”

You know. For supporting the Bill of Rights. That terrible document.

 

Olbermann also said it was “time to end the lies about the Second Amendment” and “time to end refusing to call mass murderers who do not have obvious political motives ‘terrorists.’ ”

Uh, wait. Maybe one should at least give a passing glance to the foundational and historical definition of the word “terror” or “terrorist.”

The unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Proving that Olbermann is clearly an ignoramus who has no concept of definitions or, dare I say, the meaning of words themselves. He bends them and breaks them into ways they were never meant. For. Political. Purposes.

Who is the real terrorist here, Keith Olbermann, mein Teutonic Fuhrer? You aim your intimidation towards the civilian population for political purposes. Hello? Bueller?

Olbermann was removed, if you recall, from MSNBC in 2011 for, shall we say, a lack of performance. He was replaced by Lawrence O’Donnell, an avowed Socialist. Olbermann was, ahem, polemic to say the least, but still somehow envisioned himself in the mainstream of thought — which he was, but only for the Elitist Left who elbow-rub in various parvenu and jejune DC soirees.

According, therefore, to Herr Olbermann, His Teutonic Self and Leftists, these things are fundamentally true.

  • Anything conservative is evil;
  • Anything or anyone advocating conservatism is evil;
  • Supporting the US Constitution is evil;
  • Supporting the Bill of Rights is evil;
  • Supporting the First Amendment is evil;
  • Supporting the Second Amendment is evil.

You see? Rampant and unmitigated evil which must be immediately shut down.

Immediately immediately immediately!

Just ask them.

Great article about Keith Olbermann is here.
