A Good Monday Morning

I just witnessed one of the Funniest Things I've seen in a long long time.....

Driving home earlier, my route took me downtown pass the Caddo Parish Court House where the infamous Confederate Memorial Statue has stood since 1902. Beneath the statue were gathered a group of feral black youth and a few young children, many dressed in the red, black and green colors of the African flag, some in what looked like Che t-shirts.

Jumping around and very animated, they were gathered in a circle with 4 or 5 at a time trying to set fire to a sopping wet confederate battle flag...... while stand in rain shower!

I watched with laughter as small groups lit they cigarette lighters and held them to the flag until they were to hot to hold, drop them and painfully wave their hands in the air.  For 15 minutes or so I watched this demonstration of amazing futile stupidity from a distance until my passenger and I couldn't control our laughter any longer and feared the same might happen with our bladders..... 

I'm starting to believe there  really is such a thing as Devolution. 

Original Version of The Declaration of Independence Discovered

And this explains a lot:

Ben, George, John and Tom walk into a Tavern….....

NOTE: In 1770, the average per capita intake of distilled spirits (whiskey, rum, gin and brandy) was 3.4 gallons; by 1830, the per capita intake exceeded 5 gallons.

After some thought, the framers of the original 
document put down the Ale mugs and all
agreed to a rewrite, and be a little more diplomatically
thorough in telling King George to kiss their asses. 


Along with the U.S. Constitution, the rewritten Declaration 
has pretty much been ignored in modern times.

Happy Independence Day!

As we celebrate the 239th anniversary of this great experiment we call America, we must not lose sight of the reasoning nor the intentions of the daring and courageous men who gave birth,  guided by the wisdom of our creator, to what has become the greatest nation ever created.  

Happy Birthday America!

SCREW YOU FACEBOOK!

The PC Nazis at facebook have decided my personal page, an extension of the Diogenes' Middle Finger Blog and it's Satirical Middle Finger News Service, a page 6 years old but no longer worthy of the facebook's political correct climate, have taken the page down.  According to them, I was reported as "Bullying and Hateful, and are in violation of unspecified "Terms of Agreement". Below is the Image and link to the original post on this this blog that was linked to facebbook and was sighted as an example of my transgressions reported:

Professional Race Agitator Deray McKesson Stuns the Media and His Followers

Deray McKesson is a paid civil agitator, race baiter, spokesman for #blacklivesmatter and a PUBLIC FIGURE. Thus, he places himself in the line of fire of satirist. 

Facebook is full of images and pages of devoted America haters, hate filled screeds against people of faith, the political conservative and patriotic Americans. But I'm reported and banded for supposed bullying and being hateful, by satirizing a domestic terrorist?  

From Facebook TOA: 

Bullying and Harassment:How we respond to bullying and harassment:

"We don’t tolerate bullying or harassment. We allow you to speak freely on matters and people of public interest, but remove content that appears to purposefully target private individuals with the intention of degrading or shaming them. This content includes, but is not limited to: 

Pages that identify and shame private individuals,
Images altered to degrade private individuals,
Photos or videos of physical bullying posted to shame the victim,
Sharing personal information to blackmail or harass people, and
Repeatedly targeting other people with unwanted friend requests or messages.

We define private individuals as people who have neither gained news attention nor the interest of the public, by way of their actions or public profession."

They contradict their own TOA!

In addition, they refuse any further comment until I verify my identity as Diogenes Sarcastica and present them with some official documentation as proof it's my real name. 

Do these people think I'm stupid! 

The Leftist Circle Jerk Media Explains Why It Was Bad and Unnecessary.....

"3 reasons the American Revolution Was a Mistake"

The Hayride

Just in time for the 4th of July, the Left is showing its true colors, and they are not red, white or blue. As the Left attempts to degrade and strip history away from American public spaces, libraries and museums, they are now coming out against the American Revolution altogether. 

In a new article by Vox, liberal writer Dylan Matthews explains three reasons why the American Revolution was a mistake. Here, we are going to give you a glimpse into the mind of the contemporary liberal, where the American Revolution is seen as a problem, but Che Guevara is an icon.

Vox’s first argument against the American Revolution is that abolition would have come faster without American independence. Here’s what Matthews writes:

The main reason the revolution was a mistake is that the British Empire, in all likelihood, would have abolished slavery earlier than the US did, and with less bloodshed.

Abolition in most of the British empire occurred in 1834, following the passage of theSlavery Abolition Act. That left out India, but slavery was banned there too in 1843. In England itself, slavery was illegal at least going back to 1772. That’s decades earlier than the United States.

This alone is enough to make the case against the revolution. Decades less slavery is a massive humanitarian gain that almost certainly dominates whatever gains came to the colonists from independence.

The second point Matthews makes is that the American Revolution was bad for Native Americans. But, religious persecution in Britain was apparently no big deal. Here’s an excerpt:
