What’s The Limit?

1 Comment

Now that all the hoopla and protests over the inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States has settled down a bit, I was just musing over the fact that the group that says they stand for “tolerance”, HATES those that disagree with their viewpoint.

One stupid blonde singer even went so far as to say she would like to “blow up the White House”. How tolerant. Another equally stupid “celebrity” said she wanted to understand the conservative viewpoint. When asked what she would say to President Trump if given the opportunity, her response was that she would tell him to “F*ck off!“. Great move on understanding and expressing tolerance.

That got me thinking. What is “tolerance”?

As a life long builder, I was taught that “tolerance” was how much error was acceptable. In a machined part one might specify plus zero, minus five ten thousandth’s of an inch as an acceptable “tolerance” for a finished part. For electronics it might be plus/minus one percent of the part’s listed value.  Closer to the desired norm is always better.  You always worked hard to eliminate variations to keep everything within “tolerance”.

Tolerance is how much variation from something’s desired value that would still be considered acceptable.  I guess President Trump is outside the “tolerance” limits for some folks.

BUT that begs the bigger question. Why is there an emphasis to “teach tolerance”? Doesn’t that imply you only need accept something outside of the “norm”, up to some limit?  How much skin color variation is acceptable? How much devotion someone has in their faith? How conservative someone’s views are?  And who on the left was ordained king or queen (I want to be tolerant) to define what are the “norms” and what are the limits?

Shouldn’t “acceptance” be emphasized rather than “tolerance”?

Maybe the lefties have it right (I know, bad pun).  Tolerance is better than acceptance.   “Tolerance” means you don’t need to have “acceptance” that there are opposing viewpoints outside of some unwritten limit.  “Blowing them up” is an acceptable action to take. Kill off all who don’t believe until everyone believes the same thing.

Hmm, isn’t that how ISIS thinks?

It Must Be Okay To Carry A Concealed Weapon In Kalifornia!

Leave a comment

Last Saturday night a group of 30 “yutes” looted a 7-Eleven in Huntington Beach Kalifornia. Police in an inter-agency stop, detained 80 “yutes” in a party bus and ended up arresting two perps for ‘assaulting the store clerk’.  The rest were sent on their merry way back home.

Here’s the fun part. The report states that the police found SEVEN LOADED HANDGUNS on the bus! Some party waiting to happen!

Now I can only assume that SEVEN of the “yutes” had Kalifornia Carry Permits as only two were arrested and that was for the assault.  Want to make any bets on how many actually had carry permits?

If no one had concealed carry permits, then the only alternative answer is that IT’S OKAY NOW to carry concealed in Kalifornia!  Must be a new 2017 law I didn’t know about.  Sheesh and I just heard that Kalifornia hired Ex-Atty. General Eric “I hate the second amendment” Holder to fight reciprocal carry permits with other states, as one of his tasks.

It used to be that a loaded weapon in a vehicle without a carry permit was illegal. The law HAD been the weapon needed to be UNLOADED and stored in a separate compartment of the vehicle or in a locked container.  Looks like that law, just like prostitution by minors (read my previous post HERE) has been rescinded, in this most compassionate state.  We wouldn’t want any victimized young people arrested for breaking laws.  That wouldn’t be very compassionate.

It begs the age old question, why do we keep putting NEW GUN LAWS on the books when no one give a “Frick” about the ones that already exist?

I guess if you’re a disadvantaged “yute”, you can do whatever you want.

May I join the victim class, so I can do whatever the hell I want?  Once again, can you hear my head banging on my desk?

If you’re wondering what a “yute” is:

How Much For The Little Girl? *

We legalized more than weed here in the MOST PROGRESSIVE and COMPASSIONATE state.

I heard about this new Kalifornia law, SB 1322, on Bill O’Rielly’s show, “The O’Reilly Factor”, just tonight.

Child prostitution has been decriminalized in the ‘Great State’ of The People’s Republik of Kalifornication. Yet one more, most excellent ‘progressive‘ law signed by Gov. Moonbeam last year, which took effect on Jan 1, 2017.  Happy new year!

Here’s part of the legislative summary provided by the state:

“SB 1322, Mitchell. Commercial sex acts: minors.
Existing law makes it a crime to solicit or engage in any act of prostitution. Existing law makes it a crime to loiter in any public place with the intent to commit prostitution.  This bill would make the above provisions inapplicable to a child under 18 years of age who is alleged to have engaged in conduct that would, if committed by an adult, violate the above provisions.”

You can read the bill HERE.

Show of hands.  How many think legalizing (or decriminalizing if you so prefer) child prostitution is a good idea?

The left swinging news media is up in arms because a Republican State Representative, who by the way voted against the law, wrote an op-ed piece saying Kalifornication politicians legalized child prostitution.  Technically, yes, they didn’t “legalize” child prostitution.  They just “decriminalized” the act of prostitution if committed by a minor.  How fine can you split a hair?

Here’s what’s sad. It’s illegal for a minor to work a full-time job but a minor can sell their body with no consequences.  Under the law police cannot even interfere with the child’s “business” activity unless there is an immediate health risk to the child.

I guess this is part of the plan to help integrate young people, especially runaways and abused children, into the work force. I suspect they can make more than the “Feel the Bern” Sanders’ $15.00 per hour minimum wage.

Once more “Oh my“.
