Was It Done On Purpose?

I just watched short timer Secretary of State John “Swift boat hero” Kerry blathering for an hour on why the United States took the Chicken-doo-doo stance of abstaining on the U.N. vote to condemn Israel’s settlements. To me, if “our” country is FOR condemning Israeli settlements, then the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. should have been instructed to vote “YES” in favor of the resolution. The passive aggressive “ABSTAIN” vote is still a YES vote, but the administration can say they didn’t vote “for” it, which is total bovine excrement.

During the speech SOMETHING BOTHERED ME to no end and it wasn’t just his blathering.  Take a close look at the picture above.

Okay, what was annoying was the PLACEMENT of the FLAGS behind the podium that John “toss my medals” Kerry was standing behind. They placed the “Department of State” flag to the “medal tosser’s” right  side and the United States flag to his left (on the right from the viewer’s point of view). That is AGAINST the LAW (Title 4, Chapter 1, Section 7, paragraph k, of the United States Code) which states that The United States Flag MUST ALWAYS be displayed to the speaker’s RIGHT (left side of the stage from the viewer’s point of view).

Here’s the governing paragraph of the United States Code.

“When used on a speaker’s platform, the flag, if displayed flat, should be displayed above and behind the speaker. When displayed from a staff in a church or public auditorium, the flag of the United States of America should hold the position of superior prominence, in advance of the audience, and in the position of honor at the clergyman’s or speaker’s right as he faces the audience. Any other flag so displayed should be placed on the left of the clergyman or speaker or to the right of the audience.”

The way they were displayed INDICATES that the “Department of State” has a SUPERIOR higher authority than the United States of America!

With all of the “qualified” staff and lawyers, why couldn’t they display OUR FLAG in the lawfully correct and respectful manner? I learned about the flag in The Boy Scouts of America and in elementary school, back when kids were taught to have pride and respect our country. We were not taught to take a knee.

I believe the placement of the flags was purposely setup by some smart-ass weenie in the State Department to reinforce the notion of the “great power” of the department. Hey they just screwed the only democracy in the Middle East and they didn’t even buy them dinner.

Indoctrinate The Children!

I just read this story on a TOY GUN EXCHANGE. You can read it HERE.

The trade-in program is for toy guns and you get “more family-friendly gifts“.

I guessed they would give the little boys ‘family-friendly’ DOLLS in exchange for their toy guns.  Sure as shootin’ (pun intended), dolls were one of the exchange toys.

Why don’t they give the little boys dresses and some makeup kits as well?

I may need to make my #I’MAPUSSY SHIRTS in kid’s sizes…

As I read the article, the bigger and more TROUBLING INFORMATION that was buried at the end of the story is that some of the exchange toys were given by ‘Toys for Tots’.  I’ve given many toys over the years to the organization.  I always believed that the organization was giving the donated toys to kids in need.  I didn’t realize that “TOYS FOR TOTS” is using the donated toys as part of an ANTI-SECOND AMENDMENT INDOCTRINATION PROGRAM.

Looking over their website I can’t find any information on their political stance.  It does show that their stated policy for an unacceptable toy donations is: “Toys for Tots prefers not to accept realistic looking weapons …“.  I’m okay with that policy.  It is however, a bit nebulous.  Would a toy jet fighter be unacceptable?  Would a Sopwith Camel biplane be unacceptable?  Would a toy battleship be unacceptable?  Would a toy tank be unacceptable?  Are “green army men” unacceptable?  Okay, I really don’t know where the organization stands on the Second Amendment.

From all that I can see the Toys for Tots organization is very well run and does lots of good for those in need.  Why do they need to get involved in a political agenda?   Hopefully the decision to participate in the anti-second amendment program was just a misguided local decision and not systemic to the organization as a whole.
