Has anyone else noticed that since the "patriot act" was enacted, the civil authorities
or whomever decides these things, have kept the RW&B banner flying at half mast
most of the time? At first I thought, oh yeah, tribute to the collateral damage of those
killed in the power play in NYC. But it stretched beyond that. Now, if someone's cousin
died in some foreign war, half mast is mandated. Dead ex-politicians - half mast it!
Dead ex-presidents wives pass on -half mast it! It would seem we are a nation of
shame. Cowering to the symbols of the psychological destruction force fed us. In my
reckoning the day JFK, RFK and MLK were assassinated are flag lowering days. The
rest is just posturing. So keep your flag up!

Classified information usually cannot be discussed in such a public hearing.
Behind closed doors is now taken as public testimony? Another end-around from rational
discourse. Sorry kids, but this is a secret.

good morning readers
Crispy cool here today. The leaves are dying out from the latest deluge
therefore lighter and easier to move. Going out to check on a shrink wrap
job on one of the boats at the yard. Maybe put up a flag upside down.
Although the owner may not be on board with such radical anarchism?
Anyway, enjoy the day!

Put the flag upside down!
That would be great. Pretty sure the owner wouldn't be happy. Maybe shrink-wrap the flag too?

this from the American Legion
The flag shall be flown at half-staff for:
thirty days following the death of the President or a former President
ten days following the day of death of the Vice President, the Chief Justice or a retired Chief Justice of the United States, or the Speaker of the House of Representatives
from the day of death until interment of an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, a Secretary of an executive or military department, a former Vice President or the Governor of a State, territory, or possession
on the day of death and the following day for a Member of Congress
Peace Officers Memorial Day, unless that day is also Armed Forces Day.
In a case where the flag is fixed to the pole (often in residential situations) it cannot be flown at half staff. In this instance, it is proper to attach two black ribbons to the end of the pole to show respect.

Good morning, Q and everybody!
So, on Dec. 1, the US government will vote on the latest WHO treaty as amended.
Notice the mainstream media is silent? Will we fly the flags upside down if we vote "yes"?
These are interesting times.
Gaza gets one more day of bomb cessation, although snipers have stayed busy and noisy throughout the pause.
Sigh...
Nowadays, being anti-war is tantamount to being racist or Fascist. (I don't see those things when I stand in front of a mirror, but perhaps my eyesight ain't that sharp.)
Q, have fun shrink wrapping a boat! Thanks for the OT, friend!

2 countries have said that they won’t sign on to it
At one point there were 11, but I don’t know if they changed their minds.
Meanwhile all the globalists who are pushing this climate change nonsense continue to fly around on this private jets, sail on their huge yachts such as Bezos who owns the biggest yacht ever and adds more crap to the environment than some countries do.
Next thing coming for us is digital cash which will enslave the world. Think I’m kidding?
Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.
Voting is like driving with a toy steering wheel.
well if the UN says so, then it doesn't matter
the UN is a toothless old goat beyond it's usefulness
but the WHO?! That is the kind of global authority we need. /s
Hate to so admit, but the 'world' is already in a slave state
subject to the colonizers. Which master doesn't matter.
Money will be managed by AI. Need to come up with some
alternatives to this dystopian nightmare.

You know,
I do not want the non-doctor head of WHO to be my doctor, nor do I want him to be the de facto dictator of my country.
The digital currency is being implemented in the EU. Let us watch them be the guinea pigs for this total surveillance system. I hear that it should have their economy destroyed in very short order.

Good morning QMS. Thanks for the OT.

Colossal is an amazing site
So, I may be pirating their content? Do try to give credits with the artwork as
much as I know how to. If this is a problem, let me know.
thanks

I still have
a book of Blue Chip stamps, I wonder if they are still good?

Thanks for the tune and OT.
Neither Russia nor China is our enemy.
Neither Iran nor Venezuela are threatening America.
Cuba is a dead horse, stop beating it.
remember when they used to give free
stick-on orange horse shoes with every fill-up? Forgot the ad line, something
like give your car a kick in the tank. And the tiger tails they would shove in the
gas fill door to show you have a tiger in your tank? Of course that was when gas
was cheap, maybe $.30 / gallon. Not sure if S & H stamps are still a thing. Do
remember filling books of it for some discount or another.
cheers!

Absolutely brilliant montage of democrats saying that Trump was
.
an illegitimate president and of course the Hellabitch led the charge.
And now we are finally seeing how the capital riot was another psyop on the country from democrats just like Russia Russia Russia was. Trump wants to have the democrat’s 1/6 committee subpoenaed to testify in his trial brought by Jack Smith because of how they selectively chose the videos to show to the public. We see now how cops escorted many of the people who went into the capitol. Lots of people have served jail time for misdemeanor trespassing and the rigged trials refused to let them see all the evidence. Thousands of lives have been ruined because of what Biden’s justice system did to them. Lost homes, jobs, ect…. And as you can see on the video the riots after Trump got elected were much more violent than what happened at the capitol. Where is Biden’s justice department scanning the videos and identifying the people at the riots and sending SWAT teams to violently arrest them like they did Trump’s supporters?
Boy I know where I’d love to post this, but alas I’m banned.

Every person sentenced to prison
It is the Brady Rule, established in a Supreme Court decision that requires the prosecutors to provide any mitigating evidence in their possession to the defendant.
Libtard rioters are righteous, snoopy. They are totally within their rights as true liberals to be violent. Really. Seriously.
That montage video is a classic!

Yeah I was going to say that
but I forgot the name…it was there when I was typing and then poof it was gone. Thanks for the save. I don’t know how many cases I read where the lawyer asked for the video but was told they couldn’t have it. I agree that every case where they withheld evidence should be redone. And they should be moved out of DC because they aren’t getting a fair trial or an unbiased judge. The judge in most cases gave people longer sentences than what the prosecution asked for. She’s in charge of Trump’s case too.

If no Gaza extended cease fire
If there is no cease fire, Israel may endanger the lives of Jewish people living outside Israel. I have heard from people I know about direct harassment of Jewish people. Here is thing. There is no politics involved just harassment of Jewish people for being Jewish.
Right now, the Gaza protests have been anti-Zionist and anti-Israeli war actions. They have not been in anyway anti-Jewish. Some of the most visible protests have been Jewish people protesting the actions of the Israeli government.
But I can see how truly violent anti-semitic forces/groups will co--opt the protests and turn them violent against Jewish citizens. In Portland Oregon from what I saw AntiFa co-opted a peaceful BLM movement to engage in violence. Peaceful daytime protests lead to violent clashes at night. From what I saw and read, black community leaders eventually backed out of the protests due to the violent actions of AntiFa.
I don't see much of that happening in the States except where there have been tensions between Jewish communities and various other groups. However, Europe may be a totally different story.
most American jews I know are embarrassed by the
actions of Bibi and the Zion regime
just as we are similarly unenthusiastic
about the Brandon regime

Palestinians in Dublin
I have no info that a single Jew outside of Israel being injured or killed.
Please, do not hesitate to correct me if I have missed anything. I have limited time to research, due to work.
