A national gathering of a couple hundred white nationalists is entirely inconsequential.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin?

My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery.

My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet.

My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark.

Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we’d make meat helmets.

When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really.

At the age of twelve I received my first scribe.

At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it’s breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.

The liberal press say Trump is not presidential
But I think he is quite the quintessential
Man on a mission
And a tactician
Who is making the MSM inconsequential

In days past, a woman’s “consequence” was her train of supporters and yes-men following her around the palace or gardens as she ate, drank, and made merry..... Michelle’s consequences are a loss of the train, the gardens, the palace, the school lunch fiasco, and the reporters dutifully repeating all of her inanities and the reporters’ inbred prejudices.

Truth is really inconsequential
Though it has such potential
Evil exists
and persists
Making Charlottesville fully consequential.

Spotted an article on Allen West’s website that disputes MSM narrative on the car thing. Suggests his car was being surrounded and a black man with a bat was hitting it moments before he revved forward. Somewhere else I read that the woman who died was between two cars ahead of him berating the driver and forcing them to stop when she got pinned. Dear, God. If true what a comedy of freakish happenstance all ending in needless death. Stay home all you idiots. Just stay home.

Apparently, the local police were all saying it was a freak accident with a frightened driver acting irrationally in emerging situation. Not a white supremacy jihadi out to kill.

Trump can say the most inconsequential thing & it will be turned around to imply he’s a racist, bigot, homophobe, general poo-head, etc.

Actually, I believe that, as the exact same thing happened to my nephew, except that it was a crowd of about five big (illegal alien) guys attacking his car. He panicked, backed up, and ran over a guy’s leg.

He spent over six months in jail, and over two years fighting lawsuits.

He had just turned 18, so was put in “The Big House” with real criminals.

He’s doing OK now, but because of stupid advice and a plea bargain, he is now a convicted felon.

Justice and Truth seem to be inconsequential in my state.

Word for the day haiku:

This little haiku
is so inconsequential,
I’m deeply ashamed.

This was a while ago. We had garage sales and collections to pay his legal fees, and prayed up a storm. He seems to be OK now, but has had trouble renting apartments or getting credit because of his record. Even though the lawsuits were all dismissed, he still has the felony on his record, which a normal background check shows immediately.

Thanks for your prayers...always appreciated!

Illegals act all residential
Although they’re here without credential
The democrats dote
On each fraudulent vote
Claiming it’s inconsequential

Thanks...I appreciate that.

“Where is the justice?”

Certainly NOT in Massachusetts.

It’s a quote by the character Dr. Evil in the movie Austin Powers International Man of Mystery.
