Oklahoma teen, Jesse Butler, gets no prison time after conviction for brutal rape of two 16-year old girls

Posted on      by     

Judicial leniency is creating a state of almost anarchy among violent offenders and their victims. Butler was 17 at the time of the rapes, but both rapes exhibited the same characteristics: strangulation, beatings, violent depraved sexual acts, leaving both girls permanently scarred both mentally and physically. Butler was initially sentenced to an appropriate 80 years in prison, but judge Susan Worthington reduced his sentence to just one year probation and community service. Imagine the horror of the victims and their families, knowing that no justice is possible now. In a just world, Butler would never see the light of day again. 17 is old enough to know right from wrong, and many juveniles are tried and sentenced as adults when the crime is heinous enough. Justice here would mean removing Butler permanently from society. Perhaps dropping him into a permanent penal colony, encircled by machine-gun equipped Boston Dynamics robot dogs. Anything less creates a spiritual imbalance among the innocent.

Alabama executes man for 30-year old murder conviction

A particularly egregious shortcoming of our justice system is the sheer length of time that elapses between convictions and executions. This should have been at most 3 months, not 3 decades.

Is lovely city lighting really extinct?

Posted on      by     

It’s very painful to consider the possibility that beautiful public lighting is really dead forever. LED, the fast food of the optic market, has replaced every sodium vapor bulb in almost every town in America. Just look at the picture below. The experience of driving down a dreamy stretch at midnight, while the beautiful gargantuan city looms in the distance, is simply gone. The change is so criminally hideous that one struggles to articulate the feeling of futile frustration. A simple calculation of cost was made by some faceless troglodyte, and this wonderous dreamscape that we created by accident, civilization by sodium vapor bulb, was trashed without a second thought.

One good example of this is the vintage-style streetlamp a few blocks down. For years this lamp cast its amber glow on its surroundings, making the night charming. It was obvious the moment the bulb was changed to LED. The glare of it caught your eye, the way a distant welding arc does. The intensity of its cold white light has murdered the charm of the evening. The night has been transformed into a hospital room.

What could possibly be done? The type of person making the decision to utilize these bulbs is impervious to appeals to beauty or charm. For some reason every city government hires a variation of the same person who is responsible for making the night grotesque. Not all LED bulbs are created equal.  Some mimic, albeit poorly, the ambient charm of sodium vapor bulbs. Could a city government be talked into using a “warmer” bulb? Why not place blue-blocking filters over the existing bulbs? Is this really a concern of such a small minority that a city government couldn’t be bothered with it? I refuse to believe it.

This is pathetic. No amount of groveling will satiate Israel, so why do it? Robinson is being used, and will be discarded when his usefulness runs dry.

2023 Nashville shooter bodycam

Posted on      by     

Flashback to the most terrifying bodycam footage I’ve ever seen. The entire thing is like out of a nightmare: the calm urgency of officer Engelbeck, the paralyzing effect of the school’s siren, the dark hallways and heavy breathing as the police clear each room. Memory-holed is the familiar pattern behavior of Audrey Hale as she shot out the glass door and stalked the hallways with an almost professional demeanor.

The real meaning of “No Kings”

These people appear to be the average leftwing activist today. No more moderation, no more civilized disagreeement, only total violent opposition to anyone they disagree with politically.

Do these protestors have to worry about being attacked and assaulted by organized, black-clad thugs? If Trump supporters marched like this, they would be attacked relentlessly and mercilessly. And these current protestors would be the instigators of the violence. This is Bolshevism currently spooling up, organizing, gaining strength. They don’t care about Constitutional limitations, they are in fact angry that the limitations of law and order are being reimposed.

This isn’t mere political disagreement. One side wishes death, injury, or the total destruction of the their lives, upon their political opponents, and they gleefully declare it to the world. How much longer can this go on before a powder keg explosion?

National divorce appears more reasonable every day. Give them their own country, and we get ours, and we all live in separate peace. But would that even work? Do these people even want peace?
