I'm Writing at a New (Additional) Place

My friend Joseph C. Phillips invited me to write at his new site: Family.Faith.Freedom.

My first column, Still Dreaming, outlines my evolving outlook on homelessness--as it happens, from a first-person standpoint.

Be sure to add JCP's site to your list of regular reads. He has a number of proven contributors there, including himself.

Azealia Banks Perfectly Agrees With My Scattered Post

This woman doesn't know how correct she is.
Right. Our ancestors originally tried to reach God in their own way and time, rather than being obedient to Him. (And the Enemy acknowledges God's existence as well.)

Going on, Ms. Banks refers to black Christians as "Uncle Toms." Aside from the illiterate reference, we know what she means. And, in light of the Nimrod-Babel story in the Bible, there is a deeper meaning to her insult: those of us of black African descent who choose to reach out to God in the manner that He prescribes--instead of in our own manner--are traitors to the prideful and disobedient Nimrod, son of Cush.

Remember what Jesus the Christ said:
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
--John 14:6*

And this:
34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.
--Matthew 10:34-36

Or his tribe.
Not natural-born, but have so become because of Nimrod--a curse. That curse is lifted only through following Jesus the Christ, acknowledging that He died for our sins, rose again, and by submitting to His Lordship over us.

Ms. Banks is urging black persons to revert to the religion that Nimrod built and become our own lords.
Things will surely become fixed under the supernatural powers of the enemies of God...for three and a half years.

Choose ye this day whom ye will serve, black people: God or your stinking carcass. The choice stands.

Pandemic


A sickness is spreading. Its aerosolized symptoms are everywhere. But most people don’t want to hear about it or read about it.

I’ve talked about it before -- focused on religious and secular aspects—but few can see it.

I’ve even cussed readers out about it, to no avail.

This happened yesterday.
A handful of […] radicals took to the restaurants of New York City Sunday morning to demand…attention. The attention they got they didn’t much care for.On Twitter under the hashtag “#BlackBrunchNYC,” they “stormed” eateries offering brunch and draw attention to themselves.
Across town, so did this.
The funeral of NYPD Officer Wenjian Liu will be held Sunday in Brooklyn, New York, and police officers from across the nation have begun to arrive to pay their respects at Saturday’s viewing. Liu was killed execution-style in his patrol car Dec. 20 along with Officer Rafael Ramos, whose funeral was held last weekend.
I wish I was skilled enough to make up the juxtaposition of the Blacker-Than-Thou crowd storming the "beaches" of brunching weaklings and the funeral of a murdered Chinese-American NYPD officer -- murdered along with his Puerto Rican partner in the name of alleged persecution of black citizens by white cops. I'm good, but I’m not that good.

Also reported on the same day, was this.
For more than a decade, corporations have shelled out thousands of dollars in donations and consulting fees to [Al] Sharpton’s National Action Network. What they get in return is the reverend’s [sic] supposed sway in the black community or, more often, his silence.
We certainly remember that this was “Reverend” Jesse Jackson method of enriching himself (scroll down) via his Rainbow/PUSH Coalition—and it still is, seeing as he was invited address Microsoft’s annual meeting on the topic of diversity.
Jackson sat in the second row next to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer who is still the company's largest individual shareholder. Ballmer stepped down from Microsoft's board in August to focus on his $2 billion purchase of the Los Angeles Clippers[!]
I do recall that, there were a number of companies that refused to be…ahem…blackmailed by Jackson. But only a few.

Sharpton’s game is much tighter than Jackson’s, however: a regular, paid commentary gig at a major news network, CWI (commenting while illiterate); frequent guest at the White [sic] House. You have to hand it to him.

These things bring forth the question: why? Why do American corporations openly support these two obvious racial hucksters? The answer is here: "frequent guest at the White [sic] House." That fact suggests a widespread...conspiracy.

But all of these things are merely symptoms.

Here’s another.

I recall a segment of Jay Leno’s Jaywalking, in which he asks simple questions about the Constitution and the government to an old black man, and, later, to the man’s son and daughter-in law. Jay separated the old man from his family and the man answered every single question correctly.

Later, when Jay asked the same questions of the son and daughter-in-law, they could answer none of them. When Jay asked the old man why he hadn’t taught his offspring what he knew, the man’s reply was telling.

He had assumed that the public school system had taught his children the things he had been taught.

As I recall, someone pointed out that the old man is probably a product of some segregated southern schooling.

The symptoms…they are all around us.

When did the onset of the disease begin? Well, one could go all the way back to the Garden of Eden. But, that is, mostly, a futile trip because people don’t read the Bible, not even Christians.

Or, perhaps, a trip to the well-publicized plans of the Gramscians and the CPUSA would be in order. Nah, too much reading and analysis.

Or, why not the deliberate dumbing down of the children of the non-elites? Or even the deliberate sabotage of the instruction of arithmetic?

Or the deliberate mating of black illegitimacy with the proliferation of drugs coupled with the War thereupon? (More about that in a later post.) You wonder where all of these angry, feral black teenagers came from? I don’t.

So what do we call the disease? Help me out here.

I can hear it now: “Aren’t you quite the conspiracy theorist?”

You don’t have to believe me. You can even call me crazy. But the spores of this disease will continue to float upon the wind, regardless of your unbelief. Or, perhaps, because of it.

(Thanks to Discover the Networks)

The Herding Series in One Place

Someone on Twitter asked me to post a link to my old blog's Herding Series, so that it can be easily accessed. (Except for this notice, the one in the tabs up top is identical to this post.)

As regular readers know, I've done this countless times, but the request was a reasonable one so I decided to created a page with pertinent quotes. If readers think that other quotes are significant, feel free to suggest them.

The Herding, Part One
For much of its existence, the United States of America did not live up to her stated standard with respect to her citizens--her People--who are black. Before the Information age (the Television Age) it was relatively easy for most of America's other People to ignore the state in which her black People existed. But by the time Dr. Martin Luther King and others asked his countrymen to remember the vision of the Founders, the Television Age was in full bloom. America's other People saw, remembered and did what was right. And, more rapidly than can be imagined; in less time than my almost fifty years, things changed.
Since the founding, America has been beset by those who did not understand the Founding Principles, did not know about them or—most pertinently—those who see freedom for all Americans as a threat to their power.The latter have included former colonial powers, domestic federal benches and, sometimes, presidents of the United States. But, most often, this number has included more strategic thinkers—long-term planners with concrete goals. Such are the organized Left of the last hundred years. Leftists seeks to hinder all forms of freedom and seeks to do so via government.
The Herding, Part Two
In this second part, my purpose is to detail another tactical weapon of the Left, the purpose of which has been to instill a set of attitudes in the minds of the American populace; in this case, the mindset is meant for white Americans. 
If the Left has been successful at keeping racial grievance in the forefront of black American agenda—in indoctrinating black Americans into believing that retaining racial anger at whites is inherent in being black and essential for black survival--it has also been successful in later years of producing a certain mindset in white Americans. Actually this seems to be two mindsets, but it is really a singular one—a two-headed beast. The first is guilt-fear and the second is unproductive anger.
The Herding, Part Three: Cold Tribal War Going Hot?
Through this mindset, black Americans have become the organized Left's shock troops in latter’s war against America and all too many of us have become the Left's overseers, tasked to force the "deserters" back into formation using the tools of ridicule and shame. I almost said that the Left was at war with black people, but the Left doesn't esteem blacks enough to deem us as their enemies. We are merely tools to be used for the task at hand—to foment violent racial discord which will have to be put down using infinitely stronger government violence--and to be discarded when the task is completed, assuming that there will be any of us left after the New Civil War. And we let ourselves be used for one reason: tribal vengeance; for slavery and for oppression.

Agitating Dirty


In “Holder and Obama are making race relations worse, inflaming hatred”, John Fund and Hans Von Spakovsky point out that one Alfred Sharpton has become the new Civil Rights Leader, even though he is
[f]ar from becoming the “refined agitator” his apologists now claim him to be [and] is the same racial charlatan and rabble-rouser of the past using slightly new tricks.  
Looks like the same one to me too — with a lap-band and a less flamboyant conk.

Every now and then, I still see non-black conservatives exhort black persons to “stop listening to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton” and to “get new leaders,” or something similar. It would be good advice, if it were true that black person had voted for or, somehow, appointed such persons to “lead us” in the first place.

But we did not. So where do these people come from?


Sharpton has been a hilariously awful commentator for MSNBC for a bit. But even before that, MSNBC, CNN and even Fox News had been sticking microphones under him and other "civil rights leaders" as the go-to guys--and sometimes girls--as if they were the go-betweens for "the black community" and the rest of America.

I call Bravo Sierra.

“Civil rights leaders” never just spontaneously came to the fore; they are and have always been created. The rise in the fortunes--literally and figuratively--of Sharpton  should be proof of this. (And, as it turns out, Sharpton has always hidden backers, later revealed.)


 Even the concept of a civil rights leader is a created one. But, ‘agitator’ is better because it is more descriptive. The word makes me think of that part inside your washing machine--the constant spinning and the noise-making. And that’s where the comparison ends.

No one will be made clean and whole by Al Sharpton's latest product. And his most recent backers are far from hidden.

It all depends on whether you will allow yourselves to see it.

Adopting the New Tagline and Shaking Off the Old One

I changed my tagline to reflect my personal philosophy of work. The old one--Member of the Funny Name Club--was inspired by something that the president said back when he was a candidate, and, while I thought I thought it was pithy--especially considering the differences between his political philosophy and mine--it was time to change it. There was too much baggage in it; bigoted baggage that I don't carry.

The new tagline was inspired by the demand by certain elements that others "give" them jobs--a constant refrain that bothered me and, for a while, I couldn't put my finger on why I was bothered. Then, the Eureka! moment came: the giving was expected, whether the recipient had earned it--through education and/or experience--or not.

Creating one's own job seems radical, but it isn't. we see it happen everyday. It's just that Americans have come to expect other people to give them jobs, something which may contradict Jesus' Parable of the Talents.

My problem has been lack of confidence and fear: would anything I write make a difference? Would I be ridiculed for my rather quirky way of expressing myself? But those rhetorical questions reflect something I've been railing against for years: pride and fear. I guess it's true that people criticize that which they dislike about themselves.

My job--my talent--is to write and I can still freely do that, so I will.

Speaking of that, I started a Dollar-Off Sale for my book, which will last until tonight. If you're interested, go buy. Remember, if you buy the paper version from me (and not Amazon), it will be autographed.

Re-Done Book Site

I've had several book sites, but this one is a blessing and an early Christmas present from a long-time blog friend. I have several of those also; some I've met in person others I haven't, like this one. And I marvel at each one of them: people I would never have met hadI not started blogging back in 2003.

I'm still working on the site, but a gentleman named Tyrone Steels II has done all of the hard work.

Meanwhile, if you need to buy a last-minute Christmas gift or a belated one, my novel, Tale of the Tigers: Love is Not a Game would do nicely. Remember, if you buy the paperback from me (rather than Amazon), it will be autographed. All CD buyers receive a little note also.

Merry Christmas!

The First Step--Stop Fooling Yourselves

At, some point, black Americans, you're going to have to let go of it. What is "it?"

It's your worship of blackness. 

Both you and I know that you worship it. And those of you who do demand that others do so as well. And if they refuse, you call them racist--or self-hating if they have any discernable black African descent.

Worshiping of race--and of tribe--is one of the worst forms of idolatry that there is. And all idolatry is Devil worship.

When alleged Christian pastors who are black promoted the candidacy of abortion-promoting Barack Obama,
When alleged Christian congregations which are mostly black fire their pastor for criticizing Barack Obama,
When black people riot over a young black criminal who caused his own demise,
When there is almost no activism over the tens of thousand of black people killed by other blacks every year.
When there is no mention of the gangs of black teenagers who terrorize white persons in dozens of cities and who have been doing so for years,
When a blackness-worship ambushes a pair of polices officers and murders them and, as a result, black people celebrate,

It's idolatry.

I wish some of you would stop playing around in churches and just join the organizations that openly admit to worshiping blackness. Stop being cowards.

And it may seem that the Organized Left (OL) worships blackness also. But it doesn't. The OL is merely using you--the indoctrinated worshipers--towards its own end: destruction of this nation-state. And, as a side benefit toward the OL's ends, it will result in your (our) extermination.

Jesus the Christ said that, immediately prior to the Last Days, nation would rise against nation. He was referring to tribal/racial conflict, but He also warned His followers to not be deceived by it. But it seems to me that those who are not His true followers are prone to being deceived by it, especially those who claim or pretend to put Christ first.

If you put you race before Jesus the Christ, you are not a Christian, no matter what you call yourself. You might as well become a Ba'al worshiper, or, considering the rate of black abortion, a Moloch worshiper.

Let your pride go now and make a real turn to Christ. Or, at the very least, stop worshiping your own carcasses. 

In the end, it will happen anyway, but do you want that end to be like Michael Brown's or Ismaaiyl Brinsley's? If not, wake up!

Moved

Originally posted at Da Tech Guy Blog on December 16, 2014. 

As you know, I normally post a monthly digest from my columns there and this one will a part of the December 2014 digest. But I felt that my readership here might want to know how it's going.

My surroundings have changed drastically. After the foreclosure and selling of my home, the moving/storage of the large and/or precious items, the selling and giving away of other items, and the theft of one item, it is finally done.

I suppose I should feel sad, but I don’t. The house had belonged to my great-aunt who passed away in 2012 and I had spent the first part of my childhood there. I miss it but I don’t feel despair. Still owned by me: many, many pictures, crystal stemware, semi-fine china. There’s even a huge old-school stereo with a record player and a reel-to-reel “tucked” away in my storage space.


But all of this—including the theft—forced me to ponder the nature of things and their transient nature. My auntie could take none of her things with her into next life, and my next life—while not dimensionally different from the last one—will, I think, be a little bit different spiritually. At least I hope that will be so.

I’m no longer in South Central Los Angeles and in a temporary space behind the Mount Wilson Curtain (Glendale) and that is automatically different. A goodly portion of the population are of Persian and Armenian descent and it just occurred to me that many of these people either fled persecution in their home countries or are descended from those who did. Christians and Jews.

So I am among friends, at least I hope so.

Here’s a view from my window.

To Hell with Thieves (UPDATED)

Someone who offered to help me clean out my garage, just stole my iPad. It has a lock code on it, and I don't think that there's anything he can do other than post things in my name until it locks up. But...

You who took my property, you know who you are. Bring it back or else. Oh I'm not going to do anything to you. But watch out for God.

Excuse me while I change my passwords.

UPDATE: It pays not to panic. Darmon Thornton  reminded me that iPads and iPhones can be remotely found and locked. So that's what I've done.

Mini Fundraiser--the Payback

My cousin, Tracy Allen, asked her husband to loan me his van so that I can take care of moving. I had professionals get the big stuff, by they would take none of the crystal or china --still for sale--or any other breakables, so I had to take care of that myself. The van came in very handy.

However, Jeff Allen is an independent business man and he was offered business today, but could not take it because I have his method of transportation. And here's something else: I hit his passenger-side mirror-housing. I don't even know what I tapped, but the housing is hanging off. (Question: is there a flash on an iPad?) UPDATE: Photo removed. Will take a better one of the boo-boo in the daylight.

So I'm doing a modest fundraiser for Jeff and created a button specifically for that purpose. Please add that you are donating to the reimbursement of Jeff Allen's business loss: $250 and a something the get his mirror-housing fixed. We'll do this for five days.



*****

Look at this (my third van-load)!


Doesn't look much different from this, does it? :::ponders the nature of useless crap::::

Message to the Black, White, Man, Woman: GROW UP!!!

It has been a while since I've posted a full-on rant. This one has been building up for a while.

I have asked God for forgiveness in advance for my language and for saying the following. He knows that I am not saying it in vain, nor am I mocking Him, since I've thought the up-coming enough times. So here goes...

Jesus H. Christ!

Are you confused about what's happening on the black-white racial front right now? I sure as hell am--well, sort of. Okay, I'm really not that confused. What I am is this: tired. I've said so before. But, without going all the way back to the Old Testament this time, I'm going to outline toss against my monitor the more recent reasons for my fatigue.

I'm tired of black people acting like children and tired of white people treating black people like children. I'm also tired of black people getting pissed when someone treats them like adults.

I'm tired of the political Left feeding the infantilization of black people.

And, I'm tired of the political Right feeling the need to walk on eggshells around black people.

Both yesterday and today, I've pointed to Leftist infantilization, because it is the deadliest and the biggest load of shit.

On Facebook, I said:
Black people, in general, are treated as children by white leftists. As slaves. 
This is why white leftists freak out over black conservatives; we don't want to be their children/slaves. It is also why black leftist slaves call black conservatives "sell-outs": they think that we have been bought as well. 
Think about that. Leftists of any color cannot conceive of black persons as free: free in body, and, most especially, in thinking. 
A Facebook friend repeated my comment in a non-partisan political group and described the now-deleted response as a 'war.'

Then, on Twitter I said:
In response, a longtime blog friend, Darkstar, responded with this:
It is his long-held assertion that "plantation rhetoric" is insulting and hurtful.

Really? Is it not true that black Americans are, mostly, descendants of American Slavery? And is it not true that, since the 1960s, the Democrat Party has treated black Americans as political chattel? And is it not true that a significant number of black women and children have been fed, clothed, and housed for a couple of generations by government funds? What the Hell else is that but slavery?

And what about that "plantation rhetoric?" Why is it hurtful? Are black Americans ashamed that their ancestors were slaves? Why? And if some are ashamed, why do our Leftist-appointed black "leaders" and others keep bringing it up to throw in the face of white Americans?

Darkstar seems to think that conservatives (not a reference to the Republican Party) are saying "come on over to our plantation." But the tiniest bit of research into conservative ideology refutes that bullshit. What conservatives are saying to black Americans is this: "Build your own 'plantation.' And we are for a government that will get out of the way of you doing that very thing."

(And, by the way, a bunch of black people have recently burned down a town!!! Bet there are a lot of got-damn hurt feelings about that.)

And, please excuse me while I whip THIS out about "plantation rhetoric" and a few other items that have been annoying  the shit out of me for quite some time.

Why does every Leftist Tom, Dick, and Harry assert that every malady afflicting black Americans is the result of slavery?

And why does every white Rightist Tom, Dick and Harry say "I'm not a racist, but...?" Frankly, Scarlet, I don't give a shit if you are. Just stay out of the way of my life, liberty and pursuit of happiness and I'll stay out of the way of yours.

And why does every black Leftist Tom, Dick, and Harry want to get ancestral vengeance for this same slavery? Will that stop our dead ancestors from having been slaves? What about that job you keep whining about that the white man won't give you? If you kill him, he can't give you a damned thing.

And why does every white Leftist asshole--like this dipshit--want to understand "racism" whenever one black or a group of blacks fucks up?

And why does every Rightist Tom, Dick, and Harry assert that Barack Obama is not a "legal African American"--whatever the fuck that is--because his alleged father is a Kenyan Luo and his mother is a white American?

My biological father is also a Kenyan Luo and my mother is a black American descendant of American slaves. So, whenever this ridiculous assertion comes up, I always ask whether I am a half "African American." I never get an answer, not even an acknowledgement of how stupid that shit is.

Side notes: fuck Barack Obama for being a puppet of the Left and the Islamists and, thereby, fucking up my country; not to mention besmirching my tribe. Oh yes, and to those who keep repeating the totally, unadulterated bullshit about my tribe being Muslim slavers: fuck you, too.

And fuck the rest of you and your tender feelings./gratuitous

I almost prefer the hardcore white supremacist gearing up for the coming Race War or the black thug trying to break into my dwelling place to most of the rest of you. I can just plug either one of them, pray for them as they die, and bless them at least a little bit for not being so full of bullshit as a lot of you are.

A few words to my fellow Americans...

Stop opening up your legs and having babies for assholes and expecting the government to support you and your children, black women. You wonder why all they want to do is smoke blunts, steal shit and fight white people and each other? Look in the mirror.

Stop spreading your seed far and wide, then abandoning them to the government, black men. Oh and by the way, stop being thieves, murderers, drug dealers, rapists, etc. You wonder why your kids are stupid? You probably made some of them with your first cousin.

Stop doing all of the above, too, white people.

Stop being dupes to the racial hatred that the Leftist-controlled government has long been trying to gin up, black and white people--but, especially white people, since you are in the majority and are the main target for the ginning up.

Does it seem that I'm harder on the black people? Tough shit. It's because we are the ones who are fucking up the most. We have the most choices and, since the 1960s, we have made most of the wrong decisions.

Children whine when they are criticized. Adults consider the criticism and decide whether it's time to walk in a different direction or not.

Which one are you?

And to those of you who don't like this post, you are cordially invited to kiss my black African and American ass. It's like that today. Get over it.

Postal

I'm on the way to the post office to send the books and CDs that were ordered last week.




If you have ordered either and don't receive a personal email from me today, let me know. It probably means that I missed the order.

Cootie alert: whenever I handle any of the items being sent, I wash my hands first. Call it an acknowledgement of the Ebola (scare) age.

I have another welcome task to perform this weekend: upgrading the appearance and features of my book site! (Thanks To Tyrone Steels II.)

And there's one task that's more immediate: don't miss my Saturday column at Da Tech Guy, NLT 4PM ET.

I think I may change my tagline, since I have been repeating variations of it to whomever will listen:

A free woman does not expect to be given a job from another. She creates her own job.

I'd like to think that I have a responsibility even to those who donate and don't expect return. Unexpected returns are the best, as I well know.

Paperbacks on the Way

Just now received a load of 25 paperbacks. I have to sign them; they'll be in the mail tomorrow.




As for the disc copies, I'm waiting for a few items: more blank discs, more labels--and my laptop, which is being repaired. These, along with many other essential office items--including food--were made possible by all the sales and donations

For each sale, I will send an email letting each person know that the book is sent.

Oh! Tonight, I will be editing the re-tooled book site, where customers will be able to buy both paper and e-versions of the book! Will give a heads-up when I'm done.

Yesterday and Today

So I was sitting outside this morning, drinking my coffee and talking to God--per usual--and commenting on the difference between yesterday and today.

Yesterday, at the same time, I had been asking Him to solve some of my problems and asking him what He wanted me to do. (I don't believe that God is the Great Sugar Daddy in the Sky; He wants us to ask Him what to do, then act--whatever that action may entail.)

The advice to "ask and receive" applies here; receive information as to what to do. In my case, it was to take the resources I did have at hand and to use them: to tell my friends and readers what is going on and, as we know, that's what I did. And, oh my--I am still receiving. 

So the difference between yesterday and today is this: yesterday morning, I did not know, specifically, how my problems would be solved. And, this morning, my utilities are paid, one of my laptops will be fixed--to facilitate my writing--and, best of all, I'm preparing to send out dozens of copies of my novel, Tale of the Tigers. (The book site is about to be upgraded, courtesy of yet another spontaneous act of generosity from an old blog friend who saw a need. Hey, I'm a writer, not a website designer. /McCoy)

And, oh yes, my primary task today is sending Thank You notes. Each person will get one, but this post is a public, blanket expression of gratitude.

God bless you all, in Jesus' name; especially, you, Glenn Reynolds and a number of people who wish not to be named. Your names are known to God.That's for sure.
