Undeniably Right
I believe what I say and believe I am right. Thus, the title of my column, Undeniably Right. Take it as you will, that I'm a conservative or I have a huge ego and believe I am always correct. Sometimes those things overlap, sometimes not.

USWNT Fails, But I Still Supported Them

The US women's national team was chasing history at the World Cup. They could have become the first soccer team, men's or women's, to win three championships in a row. Instead, they choked. They had won four of the first eight women's World Cup championships and never failed to reach the semifinals. This was their worst performance ever. Megan Rapinoe, the face of women's soccer, could only laugh as she missed an easy shot that doomed the United States’ chances. She continued to laugh during post-match interviews.
Carli Lloyd, a former teammate of Megan’s as well as Alexi Lallas, former member of the men’s national team criticized the effort and focus of this year’s squad. It was apparent to them as well as others that have watched women's soccer for years, that the focus of this year's squad was elsewhere. Lloyd especially criticized the teams’ effort. She was lambasted by other team members and the coach, each of whom claimed she had no idea what she was talking about. I guess the fact that she was a member of two World Cup winning teams and knows most of them very well makes no difference. Alexi is a man, so his opinion doesn’t count.
What About Brett Favre?

What about Brett Favre? Some of you may not have heard that phrase used in the context that many sports media personalities are using it. Stephen A Smith, Bomani Jones, Mark Jacobs, and other African American pundits would attempt to defend the actions of African American sports stars by saying Brett Farve engaged in similar misconduct but was not punished in the same way. It's an attempt to give an example of so-called white privilege but also try and diminish the actions of the person they were trying to defend.
Certainly this tactic has been used by many of us when we were kids to try and avoid punishment from our parents for example. I remember when I angrily stormed out of our house, angrily shoving the front door open, breaking the glass and getting a cut that required a trip to the hospital where I got stitches. I tried to 'justify' or minimize the severity of my actions by point out something one of my sisters had done. I don't know what the deflection or trying by comparison to say well she didn't get punished as bad as you're gonna punish me but it's what immature people do to avoid the consequences of their actions.

It is an undeniable truth of life in my world, we need to bring back lawn darts. If you do not know what those are look it up because it was one of the best games we played as children, but of course people got hurt by the game darts because they're just flat stupid. The benefit of their stupidity is that it helped us to clean the gene pool. The same can be said for putting warning tags on a lot of products. How many people do we really think we are saving by warning people not to use a toaster in the bathtub? Do the dumb ones really read the warning labels? But the result of trying to protect everyone is that the stupid ones are breeding and becoming a larger percentage of our population. I think most of them go into politics, while a few go into media.
t's Happening Right In Front Of Our Eyes

MI have spoken or written quite often about the ultimate goal of the politicians and the people that control them. Their goal is to have total power over us. They love the Marxist model in which a central body makes all decisions for everyone. The rules do not apply equally to all since those in charge are often the elite and exempt themselves from the same standards applied to everyone else. To gain support among the population they often use words like equality or privilege that are like dog whistles. While most people agree on some level with my opinion, I don't think many have actually thought what it looks like.
In cities like San Francisco or Austin where the defund the police movement has been most prevalent, we have seen crime increase exponentially. District attorneys will not prosecute certain crimes. It started typically with shoplifting under a specific dollar amount but then progressed to include crimes such as robbery unless an individual was injured by the perpetrator. Already we are seeing efforts to include more violent crimes as ones that are forgiven. In my opinion, the goal is to create a national police force. We have already seen the capitol police, whose only responsibility is to protect the capital in Washington DC request funding for offices throughout the country. The FBI has already provided some tactical support to local police departments. As people get more frustrated with the increase in crime rates in their cities, they would be glad to welcome in any form of help.

Harvard and Others Will Double Down

The Supreme Court handed down their decision regarding affirmative action policies by colleges and universities in their admissions policies. You may recall that this case involved Harvard University artificially reducing the number of Asian American students admitted to the university because they felt there were too many Asian Americans being admitted. Because academic achievement was the primary factor in determining admission to Harvard, Asian Americans generally had higher testing scores, GPAs, and class ranks as compared to other demographic groups. Harvard was specifically concerned about African Americans.
The court essentially said that we cannot move beyond bigotry and racism by promoting preferential treatment as required by affirmative action policies. We have to get beyond identifying people by demographic characteristic. Our constitution guarantees that we are treated equally under the law and that law must be colorblind. People forget that the majority of our civil rights legislation requires people to be colorblind and base policies upon relevant skills or abilities.
