@nerd_traveling @Mrgunsngear But it's a tax on an unrealized gain that the State made up.

I drove rideshare for a couple of years and carried every night. One customer that owned a local software company asked me if I worried about driving in the city at night. I told him honestly that I carried and he immediately asked if I would be his on demand driver at a very nice hourly wage, I agreed and he tipped very well on top of the wage.

On this day in 1992 the US Marshals, FBI, and ATF began their siege on the American family living atop Ruby Ridge.

Armed men from the government in ghillie suits shot Randy Weaver's 14 year old son in the back, shot his wife in the face when she was holding her baby, shot Randy in the shoulder while he was checking on his son who had just been shot, and shot his friend Kevin as well. They also shot and killed his dog.

All of this occurred following a federal agent entrapping Randy to modify a shotgun in a way the State didn't like.

There is no law too small that the government isn't willing to kill you to enforce. Not one.

@Amer1can_Barbie One of the best meals I've ever eaten was a wild board ragu' over papardelle in Venice Italy last year.

Between the Flock/Axon cameras tracking our movements, lack of "right to repair" freedom, New York style laws that criminalize 3d printing spare parts, and various state laws that punish sound financial management of older vehicles - Americans are going to get to a point where we start asking "Why do we have to register our privately owned vehicle with the State?"

There's no good answer to that question. It's just going to take one state to stop requiring vehicles to be "registered" and the entire system will collapse.

Registering vehicles with the state doesn't benefit the individual American citizen at all. It does benefit the Police State through direct payments and increased ability to control people, which is all the State cares about.

Drive accordingly...

Hunters are prohibited from using trail cameras in AZ and NV, while states including AK, CO, ID, KS, MT, NH, NM, and UT prohibit or limit trail cameras with wireless transmission capabilities.

But all these states use Flock cameras to track you...

@BarkinBossMacro @sentdefender That's how it's worked for decades, whether it's the Middle East, Mediterranean or West Pacific.

A Colorado cop stood on a woman's porch and told her there was "zero doubt" she stole a $25 package. His entire case was a license plate scan. To clear her name, she had to surrender her phone's location history, her truck's camera footage, and a neighbor's doorbell video.

Bow Mar, Colorado has about 900 residents. A Flock camera logged Chrisanna Elser's Rivian passing through town for 17 minutes on the day of the theft. That plate hit, plus a grainy doorbell clip of a much younger woman on foot, earned her a criminal summons.

The officer refused to show her the video unless she confessed first. "If you're going to deny it, I'm not going to extend you any courtesy." His bodycam also caught him bragging about the town's coverage. "You can't get a breath of fresh air in or out of that place without us knowing."

She found the theft footage herself, posted on Nextdoor. The thief never got into a truck.

So Elser, a financial planner with no legal obligation to prove anything, built her own evidence file. Phone tracking data. Timestamped video from the Rivian's built-in cameras. A neighbor's camera placing her elsewhere. The department voided the summons, and the police chief wrote back "nicely done btw."

The state needed one plate scan to accuse her. Clearing herself took three independent data streams.

Flock runs cameras in 5,000+ communities and logs 20 billion plate scans a month. A Norfolk lawsuit found the city's 176 cameras had recorded one driver's location 526 times in four months. The network that wrongly accused Elser would have buried anyone driving a 2009 Camry with no cameras.

Her only defense against a surveillance network was the smaller surveillance network she happened to own.

@mejashtv Used the high speed trains in Italy last year, quiet, comfortable and and reasonably priced. Plus they serve food and wine!

The chunky wood butcher block in 1980s kitchens disappeared because of a government recommendation that had zero science behind it.

In the early 90s, food microbiologist Dean Cliver asked the USDA for the evidence behind their advice to ditch wood for plastic. They admitted they had none. So he ran the test himself.

He contaminated wood and plastic boards with E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria. Three minutes later, 99.9% of the bacteria on the wood was dead. The wood's pores pull bacteria beneath the surface, where they can't survive.

Plastic went the other way. Left overnight at room temperature, the bacteria multiplied. And knife-scarred plastic was nearly impossible to sanitize, even in a dishwasher. Every cut creates a groove where bacteria hide from your sponge.

The thickness wasn't decoration either. Those blocks were end grain, wood fibers standing vertical, so the knife slides between fibers instead of cutting across them and the surface heals itself. That construction only holds together as a thick slab. Slice it thin and it cracks.

Cliver repeated the results across nine hardwoods, maple to walnut. Same outcome every time.

The butcher block was self-sanitizing and built to outlive the house. America threw it out for the board that grows bacteria overnight.

To those who asked why Iranian women Marzieh and Reyhaneh didn't report rape in court before defending themselves.

Marzieh Nayeri was forced to marry a man at 17. Child marriage is legal under Sharia law in Iran.

At 18, her husband's business associate, drunk, in her own home, tried to sexually assault her. Her husband watched and did nothing. She grabbed a kitchen knife. She fought back. The attacker was wounded. Her husband was killed. She hid for four days. Then she went to her brother for help. He turned her in to the police.

She recorded a message for her mother before her execution:

"I want the world to know what is being done to me."

Iran hanged her on August 8, 2026. She was 24.

Reyhaneh Jabbari was 19 when a former intelligence officer tried to sexually assault her. She fought back. He died. She spent seven years in Evin Prison. The world signed petitions. Iran sharpened the rope. She was 26.

Iran hanged her anyway. In 2014.

Under Sharia law in Iran, to prove rape, a woman must produce four male witnesses to the act itself.

Four. Male. Witnesses.

If she cannot, her accusation becomes a confession. She is no longer the victim. She is the criminal, facing flogging, prison, or death.

This is not ancient history. This is the law still on the books today. The law that Abdul El-Sayed is asking Americans not to fear.

🚨WHAT ON EARTH?!!

The TEACHER OF THE YEAR in Nashville TM just walked away from her career B says the district ORDERED HER TO FABRICATE GRADES.

She refused. So they went into the system and CHANGED IT THEMSELVES.

According to the teacher, a student didn’t finish a project. Hardcastle (the teacher) gave the grade the student earned.

Then a parent came in and SAT IN THE OFFICE FOR HOURS until that grade changed.

Three administrators huddled up and decided the AWARD-WINNING TEACHER was the problem.

She still refused to change the grade.

So they overrode her and changed it ANYWAY.

She quit in May and put all of it in a three-page resignation letter. It’s public. Read it yourself. She calls it GRADE FABRICATION.

And then she stood up in front of the school board and said the quiet part into a microphone: “Statistics are being skewed to protect the district, not our children.”

Our kids can’t read. Can’t write. Can’t do basic math. But the DASHBOARD LOOKS GREAT.

AND SHE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE.

WSMV4 Investigates pulled the internal emails of Diana Wills, a math teacher at Overton High.

Administrators told her she had to hand failing students a D — over a PAPERWORK TECHNICALITY about parent notification. One kid was told again and again to make up his exams and never bothered. She was on medical leave for most of that semester.

She put her refusal in writing: “What is being done is unethical and could very well be interpreted as illegal.”

THE DISTRICT SUSPENDED HER.

She’s suing them right now.

At MNPS, when a teacher and an administrator disagree about a grade, THE ADMINISTRATOR WINS.

Not the person who taught the class. Not the person who graded the work.

The bureaucrat whose numbers go UP when your kid passes.

HOMESCHOOL YOUR KIDS!!!!!

🚨 HOLY SMOKES. Marine Joey Jones, who deployed to Afghanistan and lost his legs there, just ERUPTED after the fake news amplified complaints about "food" and "conditions" on the Abraham Lincoln

"To SIT THERE and say that it was terrible because you had a 'corn dog and a hot dog,' I would have traded a BLOCK OF C4 to the TALIBAN for a hot dog about July 2010!"

"To that little kid and whoever raised him, Lord HELP YOU if you ever go into a hot war on the ground like MILLIONS of Americans! That I can only THINK what a World War II veteran sitting there who's lucid enough today to see that and think about the six-month journey home from fighting the toughest war we've EVER fought after being there for four years was thinking, listening to him COMPLAIN like that."

"You know what I ate in Afghanistan for 6 months on a burner with using a little burner? I ate ramen noodles. I had to pull the seasoning packet out because that's too much sodium in it and I put tuna packets in it. That's what I ate!"

"How WEAK are you on TV complaining about tuna and noodles? I'm sorry! YOU volunteered to serve your country."

"You can come back and get out of the military and do what all of these Democrat veterans and COMPLAIN about it and make commercials and be a SELLOUT if you want to and come up with a new way of doing things!"

"The last Democrat president that I remember that was deploying troops, Barack Obama had me going to Iraq on patrol bases for 15 months at a time, eating MREs!"

"I'm sorry, but you're a sitting DUCK on a patrol base in Iraq, in Afghanistan, a heck of a lot more than you are on a fortified Navy ship sitting in the water!"

"it makes me fume. If he sat there and said we didn't have any clean water to drink, we couldn't take a shower. I mean, well, I didn't get to take a shower for about six months, but still, you know, something that has something to do with hygiene?!"

"You know, like getting sick, there was a scurvy outbreak and, the guys that were missing legs were only giving wooden pegs instead of metal ones? Then maybe I might have some sympathy!"

The fake news is COMPLICIT!
