I imagine Philly is about to become an ATM desert.

Well, they just have to wait for Congress to pick up on what the founder of BET suggested - a 14 Trillion dollar reparations package. I think it was going to work out to about $350K per person in the African-American community. It'd be like breaking open one giant ATM instead of all those puny ones strewn around the smoke-soaked city streets.

I bet if we had Uncle Billy from It's a Wonderful Life toting up the damages every night like he does at the end of the movie, we may well be on our way to where 14 Trillion will actually mean we save money.

"Wouldn’t it be possible to release dye mark in instance of explosion within the ATM?"

Better yet - explode back:

Did he actually specify it was $14 trillion total, or $14 trillion per individual?

You’re kidding!


Yes, of course I am kidding.

Well, maybe not.

Then again I will wait until you tell me the correct way to express an opinion.

I commented on it in the article where I published the parody on Ammoland.

Kipling, though I class him as an early Progressive, similar in some ways to Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain), saw where it was heading.

The copybook headings were bible passages inscribed at the top of student notebooks "copybooks" at English schools. Kipling lived and breathed cultural Christianity, and benefited from the robust synergy of capitalism tempered by Christianity.

I love Kipling's work, but sigh at his errors, clear in hindsight.

You can see the glimmers of Gaia worship and anthropomorphism mixed with animal rights nonsense in the Jungle Book.

You can see the beginnings of the globalist "brave new world" multiculturalism in many of his works.

Most stand alone ATMs (not the ones built into a wall) can be popped open with a crowbar and sledge hammer. They are not “real” secure.

The Gods of Copybook Headings are ruthless.

Not perfect, but readable:

Here is my modern adaptation of the famous poem. Just a few words changed: AS I PASS through my invocations with every age and race, I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Marxist Place.
Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall, And the God of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlasts them all.

We were living in trees when he met us.

He showed us each in turn That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn: But we found him lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind, So we left him to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.

We moved as the Spirit listed.

He never altered his pace, Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Marxist Place, But he always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come That a tribe had been wiped off its ricefield, or the lights had gone out in Phnom.

With the Hopes that our World is built on He was utterly out of touch, He denied that the Moon was Stilton; He denied she was even Dutch; He denied that Wishes were Horses; He denied that a Pig had Wings; So we worshipped the Gods of the Marxists Who promised these beautiful things.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.

They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.

But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe, And the God of the Copybook Headings said: “Stick to the Devil you know.

” On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life (Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife) Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith, And the God of the Copybook Headings said: “The Wages of Sin is Death.

”In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all, By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul; But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy, And the God of the Copybook Headings said: “If you don’t work you die.

” Then the Gods of the Marxists tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four And the God of the Copybook Headings rose up to explain it once more.

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.

That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire, And the burnt Fool’s bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire; And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins, As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn, The God of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter returns!

Here’s my opinion.

This is a violent attempt to overthrow the elected government of the United States, occurring because the seditious conspiracy and active insubordination carried out for the past three years to further fundamental transformation have failed.

Combinations too powerful to be suppressed by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, or by the powers vested in the marshals by law have arisen, and they will be killed or otherwise neutralized or they will prevail. This is no longer politics, and using the tools of politics to fight a war is weak and dangerous.

I saw him on the business channel being interviewed by Joe Kernan. Not going to happen, we are broke.

Bank ATMs are pretty strong, alarmed and have a hefty vault. I would not call these ATMs, they are cash machines. There is a much lower standard on these.

When the Red Army Faction began, they were just using threats and protests.
It then moved to robbing banks.
Next was machine gunning Politicians on streets.

We are at level 2.

Antifa is the new Red Army Faction.
Everyone needs to watch “Baader-Meinhoff Complex”
This is what we are up against.

The crime that was committed by a law enforcement officer was the killing of a person. IF that person had been white he would still be dead but there would be no rioting over their death. The rioting has nothing to do with black or white, it is the continued war against this Republic and Pres Trump which has been ongoing since his election. And which will not stop when he is reelected.

This Kipling poem is so prescient and I appreciate the post because it helps me to again realize that the destroyers of this country are never going to give up. The citizens of America will always have to guard their freedom or become a world state, ruled by unelected potentates whose names will not even be known by those enslaved.

I think this qualifies as “bank robbery”, a federal offense.
