Abolish the Police . . .

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

The headline “In Minneapolis, new push to end police after Floyd’s death” leads one to wonder if our Country has gone completely nuts. But there may be some merit in their ideas. Sure we can add a more sophisticated police department. A police department made up of “shrinks, lawyers, medical personnel, and others to respond to our Country’s need for law enforcement. Have we considered the costs involved?

Years ago, security of the community was left to the village idiot to sound the alarm in the event of emergency. Today, law enforcement requires a much different village idiot serve as security of the community. Not so very long ago you needed only a high school diploma to become a policeman. This may be true in some parts of America today but, in some communities now they are looking for Bachelor Degrees before they even accept your application. No, that is wrong. In some communities the would like the applicant to have higher education. Either way, this amounts to a higher paying occupation than the cop of yester-year. Now, lets add the specialized training that will be necessary with the Abolish the Police movement . . .

How much education does a medical/mental health/counselor/lawyer/child care specialist/master of martial arts/marksman cop need? And how many of these medical/mental health/counselor/lawyer/child care specialist/master of martial arts/marksman cops will we need per department? Do you see where I am headed with this? Average annual pay for a police officer in America is around $46,000 today. Where will that figure go when we have to pay for the training for this new super cop? And where are we supposed to get replacements for these super cops from? I haven’t reached the end yet. Our new super cop won’t be allowed to make a mistake and will be required to only return fire when using their sidearm. I may be going out on a limb here but this new village idiot is going to cost us a lot more than todays cop, a lot more

Why do we need the new super cop? We need this super cop because our cops keep hurting and killing people that resist arrest, fail to submit to arrest, and/or suffer from some form of mental illness either resist or act a fool when being arrested or interacting with law enforcement. When did resisting and acting a fool become acceptable conduct? And what about responsibility. The idea that a police officer is to be held accountable for those suffering mental illness is ridiculous. If you have a family member that cannot walk to the corner store and back without getting into trouble, then it is the family’s responsibility to care for this person. And if you let this person roam about unsupervised you share in the responsibility of whatever incidents take place.

Do we truly need the new super cop? Not really. Our society as a whole needs to accept responsibility for their actions. If you resist or act a fool you get your ass whipped, it’s on you. Cops don’t get paid enough to put up with bullshit or having to wrestle everyone they deal with. There is no reason to resist or act a fool. If by chance you were arrested unlawfully, sue the police department and get paid for your trouble. What we need is to somehow educate the people on how to act right when dealing with police. If you act right when dealing with police and something negative happens, you have a cop problem which would be a lot easier to identify were people not being the problem.

As for the village idiots out there, why do it? Why put on that uniform every day and try to save people from themselves. The very people you defend don’t support you, your administration and local government doesn’t support you, cops and citizens are getting killed in stupid situations that should not even happen, and you are the only one being held accountable. I would not be a cop in this Country, no matter how much the pay. Stay strong, you are a necessity that some day will be appreciated.

Is It Really So Hard To Believe . . .

There is no doubt that there is racism and there are racists among us, but let me tell you folks . . . SOMEBODY IS MAKING BANK CREATING/PROMOTING RACIAL DISHARMONY!

Okay, I get it. Some of you think I am some kook dreaming up conspiracy theories for entertainment but in my many years of not knowing shit about anything I have made one observation that always rings true. Somebody is making money off the backs of others in almost everything happening today. In my opinion, elimination of the money eliminates the problem.

America wants diversity. Is there anything more common than a mixed race family today? How can you hate another race when your relatives are of a different race. Okay it’s possible to hate your mother-in-law but not the children part of the family. And the children are where your concerns should be. Regardless the color of your skin, we all have someone we know in our family tree that tried to fill our minds with reasons to hate others and color of our skin is one of those reasons. Nope, you need do anything wrong. It is not necessary that you violate the law, cause harm to another, or dress differently. All that has to happen is you be of a different skin color than somebody else. It is easy to fall into that way of thinking when those around you are promoting that line of thought. And those making money off racism, promote racism. Is this the world we want to leave to our children?

Are we going to continue to allow people that profit from a wrong, influence us while they promote rather than correct the issue. And the people doing it have found themselves a niche in which they get paid to do so. And now, allowing all of the preceding information, IS IT REALLY SO HARD TO BELIEVE . . . That we are all living somebody else conspiracy theory?

Give it a little thought. A lot of time and effort have gone into ways to profit from just about everything. And our society feeds off it like they are starring in their own reality tv show. Think about it! Even with all of the education we have had, I’ll bet you if somebody made a u-tube video and put it on the Internet today saying that the world was flat, somebody would believe it to be true and form an organization to champion their cause and by the week’s end be collecting donations from corporate America, who doesn’t even care to check the validity of the organizations they hand millions of dollars to.

You might ask yourself what I am getting on about with my conspiracy theory ideas and how I have come up with such ideas? I know at this point of my story I would be expecting a “Next” arrow like an internet news story that takes twenty pages of clicks to tell a one page story. Well let’s take a short walk along a different path.

Ever since the Washington Post put up their database of Police killings of people the claim that Black people are killed by police at a higher rate than the other races.. To reach this conclusion they use the calculation of the amount of Black people within the entire United States, which when calculated against the whole United States population finds that Black people are approximately 13 percent of the U,S. population,. This finding is a gross misrepresentation of the data as it does not reflect the actual population of any specific areas. More importantly, it dilutes the population figures of areas where numerous police shootings have occurred.

Although Black people make up about 13 percent of the U.S. population., Black people make up a significantly higher percentage of the population in certain portions of the Country. Recalculation of the data to reflect actual population information alters the 13 percentage figures demonstrating that only 12 States in the U.S. have a significant Black population, and in those States Blacks hold a much higher percentage of the populace, changing that 13 percent from 13 to as much as 60 percent. And in doing so proves the claims of Blacks being subjected to a higher percentage of police killings than the other races to be false, a fabrication developed by intentional failure to read the applicable data. So, with all of the intelligent people of all colors, why hasn’t this been brought to light before? Why is the entire U.S. living this lie? And, whom benefits by allowing such lies continue?

For so many years we have heard the same lies over and over again, from clergy, from politicians, from educators. It has to be true if these people are saying it, doesn’t it? Opposing these claims leads to almost immediate ridicule and threats from others. Who benefits? Not the Whites, not the Blacks. The only people deriving benefit is those collecting pay from it.

I rest my case. Do you think me wrong?

And A President Disgraces A Nation . . .

Rich Cranium11 Comments

Throughout President Trump’s presidency, he has been known to act a little different than your every day politician. This for the most part has been accepted as the poor fella has not had a single day of peace since he was sworn to office. His biggest fan and our Country’s biggest embarrassment throughout his presidency being Nancy Pelosi, who should of been removed from office with the first complaint she chased Trump with. She wasn’t and four years of embarrassment brings us to today.

In all the pursuit to remove Trump from office, Pelosi made a “smear campaign” out of Trump’s every day. But let us not forget why we elected Trump in the first place. The reason we elected Trump was that we had grown tired of lying ass politicians that did nothing and wanted to give a businessman a chance at running the Country. Well Trump never got the chance because Pelosi and her bunch of political assassins pursued Trump like a pack of junk-yard dogs using every bullshit thing they could to cause Trump and this Nation disgrace.

I have no idea what Trump was thinking, but Pelosi didn’t do this one. Yesterday thousands of people converged on Capitol Hill trying to disrupt the counting of the electoral vote, in support of the President and at the encouragement of the President. Four people dead, one by a Capital Police bullet, and 52 arrested in a riot that should not have ever taken place and it was ALL 100% President Donald Trump. The offense bigger than the laws broken is the disgrace this episode brings upon our Nation. The threat to the political folks in the chambers, the violation of Capitol Hill, coupled with the violence that injured many have all been seen worldwide and makes the United States of America look like a bunch of idiots.

Now Trump may not have gotten a fair deal in Office with the Pelosi mob chasing him, but for a President to “in any way” be a participant in this riot, is way too much. How many people could have been hurt or killed? If it continues would it bring about another civil war? Trump took an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Trump became the enemy, and he incited others to follow. Not a very Presidential act . . .

You see, what we fail to take note of is our own democracy. In order for democracy to work, we the people have to honor the vote. Never should a citizen have to take a violent or unlawful act to challenge a vote. We might protest, but the job of determining the legality of the vote are the bean counters that count the vote. And, once the determination made the vote legal, it is our responsibility to honor the vote, and if necessary support someone other than who you voted for taking the position voted for. That is what democracy is all about. Subsequent to the most recent presidential elections we have failed to honor the vote and accept the winner into Office. You may not like the one elected, but you still need to honor the vote.

I’m sorry Donald Trump, but you have violated a great many laws of the United States of America and it is time you surrender your keys to the executive washrooms and go back to Trump Hotel and stop bringing disgrace upon our Nation.

Prop 16 California Affirmative Action Measure Trailing

Rich Cranium3 Comments

Syndicated Local – CBS San Francisco  1 hr ago

This is the headline that caught my eye this morning. Here’s a link back to that story.

I come from the era of Affirmative Action and I am White. I do not have any deep seated anger issues over the previous Affirmative Action programs/policies. Okay, maybe just a little resentment, but I haven’t allowed it to sway my racial opinions.

BUT, FOR THE RECORD . . . WHEN A PERSON OF COLOR, OR A PERSON OF NO COLOR GETS AN OPPORTUNITY TO IMPROVE HIS LIFE BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF HIS/HER SKIN REGARDLESS THEIR LACK OF QUALIFICATION WHILE A QUALIFIED APPLICANT IS NOT CONSIDERED FOR THE JOB BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF HIS/HER SKIN IS THE MOST RACIALLY OFFENSIVE ACTION POSSIBLE. ALL THIS DOES IS TAKE A WHITE GUY OUT OF THE JOB AND PUT A BLACK GUY IN IT!

You cannot fight racism with racism. Any program that has a race even part of it is racist. Fight racism by not using the problem to fix the problem. The problem is skin color, so remove skin color from the equation. And, if you cannot do that, get somebody mature enough to do so. STOP using skin color as an excuse, use no-color as a policy. It really is not that hard to move beyond skin color, it just takes maturing a little.

What every one of you racist assholes don’t realize is we were already at the best point in our history as far as racial harmony goes and moving forward. The people that make money off of racism are going to create a whole new racism and turn us back 40 or 50 years if we don’t do something to stop it.

Let me put it into a better perspective for you. DO YOU THINK THAT EVERY WHITE PERSON THAT LOST AN OPPORTUNITY TO AN UNQUALIFIED BLACK MAN WONDERS EVERY DAY IF AFFIRMATIVE ACTION DESTROYED HIS FUTURE? What you have to understand is the fuckwads that create these programs are not effected by it. They already have money, jobs, and enjoy the highlife. The working man is the one effected and who are the working men today. The same people that are our neighbors, of all races. FUCK AFFIRMATIVE ACTION! If a HRRep cannot hire people based upon qualifications regardless of skin color, then replace him because he is your problem, not the applicant. And, if you still want racial equality require all of the Asian, Latino, Indian, Black, and other employers hire some unqualified White people to work for them.

I AM NOT BEING RACIST. I do not care if i go against a Black man competing for the same job and the Black guy getting the position due to being better qualified. I do care if I don’t get the job while being the most qualified but am not the right skin color.

You see, the problem we have is skin color. Black people want to make sure everyone knows they are Black, White people believe everyone knows they are White. But, I don’t want to play the race game. If I can forget I am White, why can’t you forget you are Black? For me personally, I don’t give a shit the color of your skin. I give a shit what kind of man you are. And if you are more concerned about the color of your skin than being a man just like any other man, then it is you the problem.

It’s quite simple. Skin color is the problem. NO IT ISN’T, economics is the problem, skin color the cop-out, and racism the winner. Don’t be a racist, move beyond skin color for the betterment of us all.

Do You Really Care?

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

I mean do you care about the things happening in your neighborhood, your city, your state, your country, or even the planet? Do you care about the crime, the hatred, the social and racial unrest, or who is killing who? I find it very depressing that many don’t give a raggidty rats ass about any of it.

Our youth are really disinterested in facts, but chase social media like it’s the know-all and guide of the future. Don’t they realize that most of the hype they read is bullshit. They have no sense of value, or it has been misplaced. They would rather destroy the world than seek out the real reasons for their problems. Many see mayhem as a way of life. Many believe that they won’t live to see the age of 30. Almost all fail to see a bright future.

Late at night you hear the screams, the crying, the gunshots ringing in the darkness. You hear the cars burning rubber as they round the corner doing a early evening drive-by to the neighbor across the street, the roar of the guns as they fire into the front of his house, killing half of his family. Human life no longer has value. Kill the mama’s, the sisters, and the babies there no longer is any honor to the killings, only bullshit created by one asshole or another.

Your children face danger every moment of their day, and most of us do not understand how dangerous it is for a child to be on the street, even in broad daylight. Son’s are being forced to play gangland while girls are raped or pimped on the same streets they walk to school each day.

Schools are no longer safe for children or teacher, random violence erupts in moment that moments before were the sounds of laughter. And the honorable fight in which nobody used a gun but fought a fair contest man-to-man, are old history. Kids now find shooting up a whole classroom of fellow students, a way to show the world that they are tired of your bullshit.

Do you really care about the world right outside of your door? Join this site and let’s see if we can somehow make life better for us all. Come join the conversation . . .

No Menthol, Because Black Lives Matter

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

I read an article yesterday or this morning that said starting January 1, 2021 the State of California makes it the sale of menthol cigarettes unlawful/illegal. The article I read claimed the reason was because Black Lives Matter. The Black Community has been fighting Big Tobacco for a while claiming their advertisements are targeting Blacks and hurting Black people.

Menthols

This is another example of racism. Rather than make a concerted effort trying to eliminate the sale of menthol tobacco products to all people, the focus is towards the Blacks. Do not misunderstand, they are right. Big Tobacco targets the Black community in sale of menthol products. But is this just a Black issue? Of course, it isn’t.

Do you think White people are targeted by Big Tobacco? How about Marlboro, Winston, Camel, Marlboro, Marlboro, and Marlboro? (Just noting the numerous labels of Marlboro cigarettes and the sales to the White community.)

My point really has little to do with cigarettes. my point is that the fight against Big Tobacco is being waged by skin color. Somebody is making money off skin color. Do they believe that eliminating the retail sale of menthol products is going to stop Black people smoking? It might get a couple individuals to stop, but most are going to smoke something else.

Or, Menthol products will achieve a new level of cool and the Black Market of menthol goods will create a whole new source of income for somebody. Our city streets will likely have young people standing on corners selling bootleg Newport and Kool cigarettes. Think of the lost taxation. Think about the loss of income to Small Business. Think about who will be selling the bootleg cigarettes.

Sure, there will be White people capitalizing on illegal cigarette sales, but as menthol is more a Black than White thing, don’t you think Black youngsters are going to be out there trying to make a buck, and eventually become targets for police? Of course, they will.

What will this lead to? It will lead to continuing racism by people making money from skin color.

You cannot stop racism by racism. Eliminate skin color from every issue and seek the real issue needing resolve. This is not a Black issue when you look beyond skin color. Big Tobacco targets everybody, with differing advertisements. All these people are doing is creating another situation in which eventually some kid is going to end up hurt by police. The kids will be blamed, the cops will be blamed, and Big Tobacco will be blamed. But will the racists cause this action be held responsible? Not a chance!

Big Tobacco Uses Menthol – To Kill Black Communities

Racism is stoopid, don’t be stoopid!

I Heard That Trump Said The BLM Is Hurting Black People. . .

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

Black Lives Matter, every other “Black” organization, the U.S. Government, and every other organization that serves only specific races are hurting everybody in America.

Please listen to me America! If we as a Nation are ever going to get past racism, we have to quit pandering to racist. Every organization that uses race in their name just by being there is racism. The people that run these organizations make their money from racism. Were they confronted they would likely say, “Put an end to racism, and we won’t be needed.” But the facts are, racism grows because such organizations exist.

Here’s an example:

Do you think Mayor London Breed giving a $1000.00 monthly basic income to 150 Black and Island mothers is racist? This Nation has treated every one of a lesser income like crap for years. Why aren’t White, Hispanic, and every other race included in her offer? Doesn’t she think that the mothers of other races would love a shot a doing a better life for their child?

Every person that sees these Black and Island women being afforded opportunities not made available for them just started using the “N” word for the first time in their lives.

Black Lives Matter telling lies about police killings, inciting civil unrest has Black people and the other races angered by the violence and destruction created. That is causing racism from everywhere. And these people got along fine and actually cared for one-another prior to this.

If we, if this Country genuinely wants to put an end to racism, we must stop creating racism. Every organization that claims to represent a select race needs to be shut down. Every program that shows favor to one race over another needs to be shut down. Future organizations and programs need to be required to represent all races equally and fairly. If you do not understand what I am saying imagine this: White Lives Matter, White College Fund, or any other organization with White part of the name. If you saw such tomorrow, would it anger you? It is and always has been a two-way street. Racism exists because we keep continuing to try to fight racism with racism.

Everybody in the U.S. needs to stop today and eliminate racism around them. I know we will still have a few “Karens” around but giving them even mention allows racism to raise it’s head, laugh at them and walk away. Every race has some bigotry, hate, and prejudice. GET PAST IT!

The only people that want racism to continue are the racist.

About Me: I know I may come off as a kook sometimes, but I have spent a lot of years looking at the stupidity called racism. It cannot be stopped by use of racism. It has to stop by not being racist. Racism is stupid, don’t be stupid!

At What Point Will The Civil Unrest End . . .

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

It’s hard to believe how far upside-down this Country has gone in just a few months. Where it is headed is scary, very scary. It’s easy to get behind something that is true, but as lies are exposed it no longer seems like the thing to do. When the news came out that Black people are only 13% of the U.S. population yet killed by police at a much higher rate than the other races, it was easy joining the ranks of the angered. But then, after examining the data for myself it changed. Look out your window. How many Black people do you see? Black people are only 13% of the population if you include places where there isn’t any Black people. In a few states, Black people are 23 to 54% of the population. Even in those states White people are killed by police twice as much.

Presently Black people have been told the 13% lie for long enough that they won’t believe anything else. Why would someone want to cause anybody to believe an untruth like this? Seriously, who would have anything to gain by telling such lies.

Let me tell you folks something . . . Somebody is making money off of this racism. Because the only reason to promote racism is to profit from it. How do we get the world to stop for a minute and look around? We aren’t looking at each other as friendly as we used to. Whoever is behind this madness could win and tear this Country apart.

You know, I remember the racism of the 60’s and 70’s. this country really had made definite strides towards leveling the racism issues until just recently. If we don’t put an end to this racism on the build, we can easily set this Country back forty or fifty years. Who wins if that be the case?

Right now, this racism has made criminals out of almost the entire black race, and a whole bunch of the White race. If everyone that protested was charged for the damage done, most of us would have criminal records today. You cannot claim you were protesting because Black people killed more than the other races, by police. because that is not true (Except in Chicago where a whole bunch of Blacks been killed).

There is only one way to win, for all of us. We must eliminate racism. I know it’s an easy task, right? Stop listening to the haters and the liars. Look around you. Is there someone you dislike? Why? If it’s the color of his skin, grow up and get over it. Racism is for idiots. Don’t be an idiot!

Costco Pulls Product From Shelves Because Maker Doesn’t Support Black Lives Matter.

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

Costco plans to rewrite the U.S. Constitution and do away with freedom of speech next! The maker of Palmetto Cheese called “Black Lives Matter” a terror organization on his Facebook page and Costco read it and decided that he wasn’t allowed “Freedom of Speech” and they removed his product from their stores.

How much you want to bet that like most of America, Costco has no idea who and what “Black Lives Matter” is? I’ll bet you that Costco Management thinks the U.S. Constitution is only supposed to be defended by Military and Law Enforcement.

For those of you too damn lazy to do the research, Black Lives Matter was not form for the support of George Floyd. Black Lives Matter was formed by two lesbians trying to protect black homosexuals. I may have it wrong and only one of the two is gay. Irrelevant! The fact is that when George Floyd was accidently killed by a cop, Corporate, and White America jumped to defend the George Floyd’s of the world by donating millions of dollars to who? The name “Black Lives Matter” just got paid, bigtime!

A few years back the Washington Post thought themselves the way to ascertain what is going on with police killing people, so they started a database collecting data on every police killing of people nationwide. You know what this database said? It said that Black people were 13% of the U.S. population, and it does. Based on that information they calculated the amount of Black people killed by police against the entire U.S. population. And, that is as far as they went into reading the database.

Well, I am not a scholar, politician, or any of the people that should be researching this database, but in less than an hour I found the flaw in their findings. You see, Black people are not part of the entire U.S. population. They only have significant population in 10 to 12 states. And, in the major cities of those states, Black people make up 23 to 54 percent of the population. Recalculation of the data demonstrates White people are killed by police almost twice as much as Black people. Did anybody else research the data to validate the truth?

Black Lives Matter is a racist terror organization making money off racism and they are laughing their asses off because the White man is footing the bill, believing the database lies.

After weeks of riots, looting, and violence Black people believe themselves justified in the unrest they have caused the nation. Black people that previously got along quite well with other races suddenly have become short fused trying to find someone to slight them, so they have an excuse for “going off” about it. Racial disharmony is growing day by day because our government is giving everything they can to the Black people, blatantly disregarding the other races.

And while our politicians are busy defunding police and dismantling police agencies. Crime is running rampant and violence is everywhere. Police officers are being prosecuted because persons they were trying to arrest resisted. Almost all of the killings by police of all races has been due to resisting arrest. Not all but most. A majority of those killed would be alive today had they just cooperated with police and taken the argument up in the Court.

Today, the biggest crime against this Nation, is the new racism being created by the racist organizations making money off it. That includes “Black Lives Matter” and all those White people supporting them.

Street renaming after George Floyd approveed by Minneapolis City Council

Rich CraniumLeave a comment

Hold up? Hold Up just a minute? Is this for real? For the record, George Floyd should not have died that day. But, how did he die? He died because a cop accidently killed him trying to restrain him while resisting arrest. And then, using the lies that Black people are abused and killed more than the other races by police, the racist Black Lives Matter organization helped set off weeks of riots, looting, and violence around the globe. Are you freaking kidding me?

  • Police were trying to arrest George Floyd and he resisted arrest leading to his being dropped to the ground and restrained by police.
  • While being restrained an officer placed his knee on George Floyd’s back to restrain him and did not realize he was killing George Floyd while doing so.
  • After George Floyd’s death the “Black Lives Matter” movement suddenly found themselves with the perfect name to take advantage of his death. They were receiving large donations before they even had a chance to say anything about it.
  • The Black Lives Matter movement is a racist organization that serves to take advantage of Black People by use of propaganda while making themselves rich from donations. They encourage rioting, looting, and violence based upon lies derived from a Washington Post database that has been mis-read.

Since George Floyd’s death public cries to defund police and dis-band police departments has led to some cities doing so. Presently in these cities mayhem and murder rule their streets and they ask themselves why?

No, George Floyd should not have been killed that day. But he himself participated in the decision to have it happen. All he had to do was cooperate with the police allowing his arrest, he chose not to.

George Floyd is no national hero. He did nothing special to warrant his name being used by government for anything. With all the Black people that have done something that should be given recognition, how the hell did we give recognition to a criminal resisting arrest?

The news article that brings us here!
