Kalifornicated Reparations: 200 Million Bucks Apiece?

Effin’ Go For It!

Activists Demand $200M Reparations for Every Single African American in California
Activists are demanding that California pay a whopping $200 million in reparations for “each and every African American” in the state.

While Reparation payments for black residents in California have ballooned to $800 billion, more than twice the cost of the state’s entire annual budget, they still say that’s not enough.

Activists demanded California pay millions in reparations to make amends for historical slavery and subsequent discrimination.

Lessee… There’s some 2.5 million African-Americans in Kalifornica, according to Wikipedia.

2,500,000 X 200,000,000 =

500,000,000,000,000

Five hundred trillion bucks. Better get the printing presses running now. Maybe Zimbabwe‘s old currency printer is available.

$500 trillion new bucks dumped in California alone looks to be about 24 times the current M2 money supply for the nation. That supposed $200 mill would instantly be worth about * mil in current 2023 dollars. Talk about inflation. And it would snowball. I suspect when all is said and done — if they’re actually stupid enough to do this, and I’m not betting either way — their 200 megabucks will be about enough to buy a Micky D’s Happy Meal. If any fast food joints survived the economic collaps

TZP Column: Fear

It’s called hoplophobia.

REMEMBER THIS…
…every time some victim-disarming leftist says they don’t “feel safe” about honest people being armed; that our guns make them “feel” unsafe.
[…]
If our guns make them feel unsafe, then our guns is not what they should be focusing on.

They just need mental health assistance. She said so.

Was she born that stupid, or is it early-onset dementia?

I generally don’t pay attention to Brit Royals crap if I can avoid it, not being a Brit. But this headline did catch my eye.

Bridgerton Star Adjoa Andoh Stunned to Discover British Royal Family is “Terribly White”
During the balcony moment, when the entire royal family gathers on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to greet the crowd, she shared her apparent surprise that the Royal Family is …..white.

I’d never heard of her, so I looked her up. She is a Brit. Born there sixty years ago. And she never noticed until now that the royals are so white as to damned near burst into flame in direct sunlight?

She remarked, “We have gone from the rich diversity of the Abbey to a terribly white balcony. I am very struck by that.”

What? Does she think the royals can just re-cast family members in real life, to meet the latest diversity fad?

Well, I suspect Elizabeth wished she could. Andrew, Harry…

[Updated 2] Either the lamestream media has suddenly discovered ethical and responsible reporting…

(yeah; sure)

…or the Allen, Texas mall shooter seriously mucks with their usual “angry, white, right-wing male” narrative.

Authorities have obviously ID’d the dead suspect, since they’re searching his home. But no one seems to be handing out info that could ID him to us GUess they need more time to scrub his social media on inconvenient facts.

Unlike the usual, where the media rushes to get their scoop ahewd of anyone else, especially if the suspect is white, and real facts be damned…

At this time, the suspect’s name is not being released at this time because his identity and connection to the shooting in Allen has not yet been officially confirmed.

They know, but they don’t know… because the authorities haven’t officially said it? Since when did that stop them?

The little bit we do… “know” may not be right, but what has been reported:

born 1989
wore a security guard uniform, but was never armed
“Law enforcement officers were reportedly speaking with the family through a translator Saturday night.”

Hmm. Family doesn’t seem to speak English, maybe couldn’t get an armed security job…

Pure Speculation: Illegal, but allowed to stay. Not a legal resident, so can’t lawfully carry a gun. Lefty media doesn’t want us to know. DACA dreamer.

Update, 5/7/2023, 10:10AM: Appears to be Hispanic, with a possible gang tat.

Update, 5/7/2023, 4:15 PM: Officiallly ID’d as 33-year-old Mauricio Martinez Garcia of Dallas, Texas,” hereafter Some Asshole. I’ve seen a blog post that calls the possible gang tattoo into question.

TZP Column: Serbia On A Roll

THAT NEVER HAPPENS, REDUX
It seems like just the other day that I noted the impossibility of a mass — school, no less — shooting in a country other than America, because Dims assure that never happens. Only in the US, because only we have access to so many nasty guns.

Oops. Serbia seems to be on a roll.

We Are F##KED

Last month, I mentioned that the Xiden admin is going to magically regulate Artificial Intelligence, AI. Today…

Kamala Harris Named ‘AI Czar’ to Save Us from Artificial Intelligence

You’d think someone with real intelligence would be a better pick to oversee controlling artificial intelligence. But Harris was probably the brightest least stupid person they could find wandering the halls, who was still stupid enough to take the position.

All that stuff I said dismissively about the “AI Apocalypse?” I take it back.

We’re fucked.

This Is National News?

So a plane lost an engine.

VIDEO – Plane Carrying Students Lands After Losing Engine: ‘Answered Prayer’
Passengers experienced something frightening yet incredible on Tuesday during an inter-island flight from Molokai, Hawaii.

When the Mokulele flight lost an engine in midair and everyone heard a loud noise, the passengers tried to stay calm, but that proved to be difficult, Hawaii News Now reported Thursday.

I’ve been on at least three flights that lost engines, that I recall off-hand.

One was a regional puddle-jumper flying out of LAX. I don’t think most passengers knew what was going on, but I was seated right by the engine and knew what was up when the pilot announced a minor problem. I kept my mouth shut so’s not to panic anyone.

Then there were, not one, but two C-141B flights out of Rhein-Main to Incirlik. Lost one engine the first time, and had to turn back.

Next time out, we lost two engines. And back to Rhein-Main again.

Never made the news. For that anyway.

I’m sort of thinking there was a fourth time, but I can’t really recall it. I did get knocked out on a C-130 flight, when the web troop seat support broke and hit me in the head. Bled a bit, too.

Then there was that American Airlines flight into Memphis. Pro-tip for pilots: you aren’t supposed to land, over speed, on the nose gear first.

TZP Column: Silencer Ban Bill

SUPPRESSING REALITY
Senator Menendez [Scumbag-NJ] has filed a bill titled “Help Empower Americans to Respond (HEAR) Act” (no bill number yet) to ban silencers* (except for law enforcement and military, of course). Because with a silencers, victims can’t “HEAR” perps coming. There’s a matching companion bill in the House.

It’s fairly standard “ban” language,” without grandfathering. Owners would have 60 days from the bill’s enactment to get rid of their property. Grants would be made to fund “buy backs.”

To show why this idiotic ban is “needed” Menendez cites five cases, over twelve years, in which “silencers have [allegedly] been used in gun violence related incidents over the last decade.” Let’s take a look at his examples, and see why I added “allegedly.”
