From the Harford County Sheriff’s Office:
A man is in custody after being charged in the July 8, 2021, murder of Christopher Kerfoot in Bel Air.
On July 8, 2021, at 5:00 a.m., patrol deputies assigned to the Southern Precinct of the Harford County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 1200 block of Athens Court in Bel Air for the report of a stabbing. Upon arrival, deputies located Christopher Kerfoot, 17, of Bel Air, in his residence suffering from stab wounds to the upper body. Despite immediate life-saving efforts by deputies and emergency medical personnel, Kerfoot succumbed to his injuries and was declared dead shortly after deputies’ arrival.
The investigation was assumed by detectives with the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division. Frank George Hudson 3rd, 19, of Aberdeen was identified as the suspect after interviews and the examination of physical and digital evidence. At approximately 5:05 p.m., on July 8, a search and seizure warrant was executed on Hudson’s home in Aberdeen, and he was taken into custody.
The initial investigation indicates Hudson and Kerfoot were known to each other. A meeting was arranged between the two in the 1200 block of Agora Drive. At some point during the meeting there was a struggle and Hudson produced a knife, stabbing Kerfoot multiple times.
After his arrest, Hudson was transported to the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division and interviewed. Following the interview, he was charged by sheriff’s office detectives with 2nd degree murder and transported to the Harford County Detention Center where he is being held on no bond.
Anyone with information about this crime, or who may have video of the incident, is asked to call Detective Pilachowski, with the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division, at 410-836-5437. Those who wish to remain anonymous, may report their information through Metro Crime Stoppers Tipline at 1-866-7Lockup.

13%er doing what 13%ers do (yet again). When will people realize the only way forward is complete and absolute separation.
Noneya says
“13% doing what the do”….you must be a 110% racist ASSh*le, Mike Thomas.
IndependentBA says
Thanks for showing your true racist colors Mike. Your statement was ignorant and asinine at best.
Z Wade says
I am a “13%er”. I work, own my own home, and pay more taxes on my income than God. And, might I add, my property taxes are ridiculous. So exactly what is it that 13%ers do??? Did I miss that memo at birth???
Z Wade says
Oh, and I am from a “13%er” family that is very well established in Harford County. And it has been for decades.
Open Your Eyes says
I have to disagree with the “ absolute separation “ solution for basically the same reasons I think CRT is inappropriate. They both support and enhance division which is not good. We should promote civility and good behavior. You should never forget the past but it should be reflected upon to brighten and better the future and move forward. Labeling all members of a particular group (13%er) as all bad is disingenuous and unfair. However, it is ver unfortunate that such a large segment of black America has splintered off into an unsavory subculture of lawlessness, non-compliance, unreasonable entitlement, and worst of all violence. This subculture is everyday poisoning the perception of the many good and decent people of the black race in America. I truly feel that the great majority of Americans want to coexist and are not racists. They are without a doubt influenced by racial bias obtained through routine learned behaviors. Bias, or racism will never go away until behavior changes and respect is earned. Why is this so hard to grasp? Some of the proposed fixes have been both ludicrous and counterproductive. Civility training and good behavior is the best solution.
Open Your Eyes says
I would like to reiterate my assertion that civility training is the key to addressing the growing division in our nation. Yesterday I was in a convenience store when two members of the aforementioned problematic subculture came in to the store. They were both probably in their late teens or early twenties. One of the individuals was engaged in a cell phone conversation while attempting to communicate to the mid eastern clerk what I believe was a request to buy some type of tobacco product or item. It was hard to exactly discern what the young man was saying due to the fact that he was speaking rapidly and conducting a phone conversation at the same time. The clerk could not immediately understand what the young man was saying. At that point the young man got angry and said “F—k you why don’t you learn to speak English or go back to your own country you F——g dot head” . The two laughed and walked out. This behavior was extremely inappropriate but also started me thinking. (1) I wonder how many languages that these two Rhodes Scholarship candidates could speak (2) I wonder how it would have played out if the roles were changed to two obnoxious white people and a black clerk. Would it have been a bigger deal and would it have generated media coverage. (3) I wonder if the application of CRT would have helped this situation lol. (4) do incidents of these nature concern anyone in the BLM movement? Sadly our only hope to heal this country is a heavy dose of civility from EVERYONE! No exceptions.
SoulCrusher says
The real problem that you didn’t touch was the Democratic racism that the government is forcing on the masses. CRT is a racist ideology that should immediately be banned. The BLM movement was racism disguised as racial justice. Rioting, looting and burning down cities is supposedly allowed if it is in the name of racial justice. Now, we hear everywhere that there needs to be more BLACK OWNED BUSINESSES, which is another racist ideology designed to harm all the other races in this country. Why are we giving ANY race more than another race? For equity? That’s not equity. It’s political and governmental racism. There should be no government program that is designed to help ONE specific race. If anything, a program should benefit all races. Why must I believe that there should be governmental assistance to help a specific race or even a specific foreign nationality of people that come to this country? WE THE PEOPLE want equality NOT equity. I bet that store owned by foreigners is all made possible by the programs created that give foreigners interest free loans that aren’t available to American citizens to begin with. If not for this racist policy that store may have been owned by American citizens and NOT foreign nationals. People are tired of this global community garbage. People are tired of hearing how bad our country is while people from every other country are trying to come here and live. People are tired of being told we have to wear a mask. People are tired of being told what we can and can not do in the privacy of our homes. People are tired of our children being taught racist ideology in our schools. WE THE PEOPLE are tired of all this racism and treason going on in our country and it is all being created and furthered by politicians on both sides of the aisle. We are not slave of this overly political government and we are not bound by the institutions that are created by this government and commit treason.

Are you talking Racial separation
Open Your Eyes says
Two families impacted by this incident. Very sad. More black on black senseless violence. This type of behavior makes even the most open minded individuals tend to acquire racial bias. This wasn’t Chicago or Baltimore this was Bel Air. Scary!

I am confused. A very smart “white man” just told me that I am a 13%er. I was describing “mob behavior” of young black men in Ocean City. You know, like what is happening in broad daylight in major cities when groups loot department stores. I am not a racist and I don’t need to prove it!! This concept of “white privilege” is bullshit. I worked in Baltimore City, had my car stolen because I parked on the streets of the “worst neighborhood”, and walked a block to the hospital ED where I worked. I went into the high rises in Baltimore to care for patients in hospice. I got pulled over by a black Cambridge cop and had my car searched for drugs and alcohol at 0200 all the while having Morphine and Fentanyl in my bag in the trunk. Take a breath and get a grip.

SoulCrusher says
Violent people will commit violent acts regardless if a gun is around or not. The Democratic narrative that guns are the problem is completely false. The problem is violent people who use guns, but the solution isn’t to take guns away so non violent people can’t defend themselves. The Democratic plan of taking guns away has always been about disarming the public and leaving ordinary citizens defenseless. The Democrats want you to be defenseless because their plan is to do things to the American people that is going to make the American people want to shoot them. That’s the bottom line.

There he could loot stores, assault police, commit arson, and take over public buildings all while the events are being captured on area surveillance cameras and not be prosecuted because he was participating in what the MSM labeled as a “peaceful demonstration”. Can you believe this guy? I’m mortified!!!

You tell him OYE!!! Bob don’t get all excited about the Fox News hosts asking the right questions. You Democrats put the fear into people, the MSM were complicit with their failure to report the facts, and Social Media encouraged the hysteria. Take a good look at those “role models” from Texas.

It is hard to believe that there is a Democratic politician around who hasn’t been vaccinated; oh wait a minute, there were some on the plane heading for DC. They should all be recalled for dereliction of duty. While I’m pointing fingers, Hogan should be sending Troopers to help out at our Southern border so the drugs and violence won’t be coming down I 95, I 70, & Rt 50. We lost more people to drug overdoses than COVID-19. Hogan should give the MSP raises and support their efforts. #BackTheBlueInMaryland
Bob says
Blue, instead of sending MSP troopers to the southern border, perhaps Hogan should send them to Baltimore to help address the crime and violence in our own state..
WhatMattersisBlue says
Bob, Baltimore is just another example of the poor leadership of Democrats. Maryland hasn’t supported the police for decades. Eventually, those of you who will need the police to protect you or your property will realize that your defunding policies are the cause of the demoralizing breakdown of police in the USA. Hogan needs to support the very organization that praises him and provides political photo ops to support his political agenda. Give our MSP the salaries that they deserve for the effort made to keep us safe. Wake up, Bob! Have you visited any of our vacation spots in Maryland? It is no longer an escape from the stress of daily life. Violence and mob behavior is everywhere, not just in the inner cities, like Baltimore. The police can’t do their jobs without criticism and legal threats to their livelihood. Yep…that’s happening here in Maryland. #BackTheBlue
Bob says
Blue, The overwhelming majority of Marylanders, both Democrats and Republicans, DO NOT WANT TO DEFUND THE POLICE. They want to REFORM POLICE PRACTICES & POLICIES. An example of this is the Maryland Police Reform package passed by legislature a few months back.
Bob says
Blue, You’re right. “Violence and mob behavior is everywhere not just in the inner cities, like Baltimore.” It’s like our country has lost its mind. We’re at a point in our history where we expect and almost even condone violence and hatred. It’s become part & parcel of our lives. Our country is in a very scary place. Let’s hope we are able to turn things around before it’s too late.

Open Your Eyes says
Lack of accountability is responsible for most of today’s violence . Political correctness in the form of ignoring bad behavior and the appeasement of certain groups attempting to making them always appear to be victims is the problem. Earlier in this thread I indicated that certain subcultures lawlessness and violent tendencies need to be addressed instead of being coddled. For many years the Democrats have failed to hold those people accountable because it doesn’t fit their narrative. Their ludicrous attempts at appeasement of these dangerous subculture actually promotes the vilification of our police. In doing so their main strategy is the political weaponizing of race to cause further division to gain support. Civility, as I have said countless times, is the key solving the problem. You can remove all perceived racist symbols, you can change the names of public buildings, you can canonize and erect a statue of a violent dangerous criminal I will stipulate that man was also a murder victim of an arrogant, racist man who managed to become a police officer, but until people of that ever growing dangerous subculture are held socially and criminally accountable nothing will change. People are getting tired of this behavior and their acquired bias continues to develop facilitating further divide. I challenge anyone to show “one” place where the violent subculture I am speaking of once takes over has ever gotten better and not ultimately been forever impacted in a negative way. Just one . Clean up that subculture, hold them in all ways accountable, and see if opinions, attitudes, and violence don’t change for the better. It is really a no brainer. It doesn’t have to be this way. Why can’t people Just open their eyes and stop being so naive.

Open Your Eyes says
Speaking of “moving in the right direction” that was the term you said about our country under the Biden administration. I looked at a few variables such as inflation going out of control, gas prices, energy self dependence, crime, political nepotism, immigration, appearance on the world stage, government fueled racial division, media monopolies and censorship, appearance that our Commander in Chief is cognitively failing with his number two only receiving 2 % of her party’s support during the primary election process, etc. My question is Bob did I miss something?

Yes, you did miss something. You failed to mention even though the “Uniter-in-Chief” is an exceptional leader, he is not a miracle worker and it’s going to take some time to clean up the “Divider-in-Chief’s” mess. Be patient OYE. Things are going to get better. We’re on the right track!

Speaking of concerns regarding the appearance that our current President is cognitively failing I encourage all to view his recent CNN interview where he chose to utilize an analogy regarding building material costs in our country to include why the problems are occurring. He almost stepped on it. Hard! Lol. Thank God he is such he is such an “exceptional leader’ and was able to recover without further reinforcing the blatant ineptness, hypocrisy, and totally ridiculous logic of the puppeteers of his party.

Biden is the WORST President of my lifetime. His Administration’s constant push of racial division by using the exploitation of various wrongs from the past are straight out of the Democratic “Not See” playbook. The intentional destruction of our economy, the false accounts of this pandemic and the false “Job Creation” of people merely going back to work is just plain idiocy. The only good thing about Biden being President is that Kamala Harris isn’t the President. Could you just imagine what that idiot would do? Our Nation is in serious trouble because the supposed leaders in the White House are actually foreign agents whom are giving aid and comfort to our enemies and are trying to systematically destroy our Country. The 2 party system has failed as BOTH parties have done great harm to our Country. Just look at the past Presidents and you can see the truth. The ONLY President in my lifetime that actually has tried to improve our Country was Trump and these TRAITORS act like he is what they really are. Biden has totally screwed everything up and it was intentional. Should we excuse him and his cohorts because of “cognitive failing”? No. He knows exactly what he is doing and he is guilty of Article 3 Section 3 provisions of TREASON.

Bob, I think you underestimate the bloodthirsty evil of the Democratic “Not See” Party and their main terrorist unit known as ANTIFA. Over and over we have seen far left scumbags dedicated to the “Not See” movement conduct globalist attacks on our Country, but are reported as peaceful protests by the State run news media. For years we have seen ANTIFA terrorists attack our Country and spread the chaos and destruction of the Democratic Traitors Against America. All of last year we saw racial uprisings that rioted, looted and burned down cities ALL across America. This was done yet again on behalf of the Democratic Traitors Against America and the “Not See” regime that you support. Look, moron, ANTIFA doesn’t need anyone helping them spread their hatred and misinformation, because they seem to do it quite well on their own. ANTIFA has always been known for their hatred of our Country. That’s why they burn American flags and terrorize American citizens who don’t agree with members of their TREASON. White Nationalist groups simply don’t need to spread the hatred and misinformation of ANTIFA because ANTIFA and scumbag TRAITORS, like YOU, seem to do the job rather well. Bob, you are a TRAITOR against the United States and a member of the Democratic “Not See” Party. All the information you spread is on par with “Mein Kampf” and the tactics used by Joseph Goebbles.

Maybe you should keep it simple with phrases such as”it is my opinion or I believe” etc….Anyway, I just thought I would proffer my assessment for your consideration. On a lighter note you seemed to move passed my comments regarding President Biden’s recent appearance on CNN. You are certainly under no obligation to respond in any way but the folks in the Democratic syndicate probably had to be a little scare. The real Joe Biden “unplugged “. There was no network cut away buttons at their disposal. The poor gentleman might have gotten a little far from his teleprompter. Anyway no matter how you slice it it going to be a long and busy term for real bosses in the Democratic Party. It looks like it is an all hands on deck situation. I don’t know why but whenever I see President Biden in action it put me to mind of Mel Brooks portraying the Governor in the movie “Blazing Saddles”

Blue, do you still feel those, who stormed our Capitol on Jan 6th, were a “group of peaceful protestors”? Also. what’s your take on Officer Hodges “confusion” seeing rioters carrying the “thin-blue-line” flag?
Open Your Eyes says
Blue, does anyone besides me smell a rat in these hearings? A partisan witch hunt is what it is. I wouldn’t even grace Bob with a response. He has displayed in past that he is nothing more than a race baiting, cop bashing liberal. Nothing more! His post and comments have but one true agenda that is maligning former President Trump. He and other liberals have no problem in fueling division to accomplish their goals. The testimony of the police officers was clearly scripted and I believe orchestrated by the controlling members of the Democratic Party. The concept of true justice is not a consideration. Sadly it appears that some of the officers are clearly drinking the kool aid. If Officer Hodges became “confused” because one or more of the protesters was displaying the thin blue line maybe he should be reassigned to a position requiring less incident threat assessment. His was not testimony it was editorialization for political leverage. I’m quite sure that there was significant pre-hearing coaching going on . The Democrats wanted to take another swipe at Mr. Trump and the police unfortunately appear to be trying very hard to downplay a very questionable shooting incident by deflection. At one point the incident must be made transparent.They want to make the situation appear so out of control and chaotic that this truly sad and pathetic incident occurred. I find it odd that government and police officials in cities such as Portland and Minneapolis where municipal buildings were taken over and burned do not refer to those individuals as rioters or criminals. I wonder if anyone saw the need to interview police officers regarding those incidents to ascertain if what was observed in numerous video accounts, was in fact perpetrated by a individuals displaying BLM logo. I wonder if government leaders saw the need to capture information of this type. I wonder if the officers were actually directed to omit that very pertinent information by superiors. These hearings unfortunately have nothing to do with justice or transparency only retaliation. I have one final statement. To date I have never seen a “start to finish”, unedited, account where President Trump directed those demonstrators to storm the capital. I did once see a partial politically edited snippet which appeared on CNN. Before my buddy Bob goes there I do not condone the events of January 6th. It was extremely poor judgement and the questionable shooting was tragic but I can not understand why the insurrections and related destruction and deaths in other areas are diminished to such a degree by the MSM. I would have fully supported the protesters on January 6th proceeding to the Capital and in great numbers peacefully surround it to make their point. BLM and liberals can occupy large portions of entire cities and that was ignored. Double standard???

Hey bob did you ever think that the capital police knew weeks in advance there would thousands at the rally on jan 6th. Add to that pelosi has direct over-site of the capitol police.

Also the capital police we opening doors and removing barricades to let the advancing crowds breach the capital.
Sounds just a bit too orchestrated to me.
At best it is a epic failure of pelosi.
At worse it was planned and allowed to happen in order to get a bunch of trump supporters labeled as insurrectionists and to pin anything that resulted directly on to trump in order to charge him with inciting an insurrection. This way trump could never run for office again and possibly play right into the democrats playbook of labeling right wing supporters as the number one threat our country. Followed closely by a direct assault on the second amendment by congress so that this type of thing could never happen again.
Just something to consider.
Bob says
Just sayn, I urge you to reconsider your take on the Jan 6th Insurrection. Sorry, but the facts just don’t support your assertions and assumptions.
WhatMattersisBlue says
JustSayn where you been? I agree with everything you just said!!!!
Bob, I’m not surprised that you watched Tucker with me last night. It’s okay that you seek the truth and want to verify our common sense comments.
What’s that saying that cops use? Something about “not putting your shit on the street”. Well that’s exactly what those Capital Police are doing. The cops that I know who were called in to assist described the Trump Supporters as nice citizens who thanked them for their service. The crowd was described as respectful to the police as they carried the thin blue line American flag. Acknowledging the courage of police chiefs who have come forward speaking the truth about what is really happening in our country should inspire other C.O.P. and Superintendents to do the same and support their men & women in uniform. Instead of defunding, every human who wears a police uniform should be given a huge salary increase for the service they provide for protecting the rest of us.
If you Democrats want to defund, redesign, or dismantle the police, start with the rotting FBI.
Bob says
Blue, What’s your concern with the FBI? I hope you’re not buying into all that right-wing poppycock blaming the FBI for the Jan 6th Insurrection. If you want the facts checkout the below link:

“McCarthy, McConnell say they didn’t watch Jan. 6 hearing”
https://thehill.com/homenews/house/565102-mccarthy-mcconnell-say-they-didnt-watch-jan-6-hearing
Looks like the Republican strategy for dealing with these hearings will be to ignore them as much as possible. Close their eyes, ears & minds and hope it goes away. They have become experts at accepting lies and denying reality.
WhatMattersisBlue says
Bob, Include me in with McCarthy and McConnell. These hearings are always a circus. I particularly hate the tearful emotions displayed while politicians give their best academy award winning performances while spreading their propaganda. OYE wrote about the staging that went on with the police offering testimony of the event. The more times these officers made reference to President Trump, the flag, and terrorists I realized that some police can’t be trusted. Nothing personal, but I admire the DC Chief of Police and the Chief of Police of Chicago who spoke truth to power regarding the “root cause” of our crime problem. As they stood in their Democratic cities, I was proud that the threat of career suicide did not deter them from speaking the truth. This investigation will go nowhere because the corrupt Democratic politicians who displayed their incompetence in providing adequate police protection on January 6, 2021 will never be held accountable. Our nation is no longer safe because of the chaos created by the liberal left. I am ranting so please refer to OYE for a more intelligible response. #BackTheBlue
As I entered a popular restaurant for lunch today a gaggle of cops in tactical gear came walking out. I said to this group of seven, “Am I safe?” They laughed and said, “Yes, Ma’am especially now that our bellies are full.” Now those are trustworthy LEOs.
Bob says
Blue, which Democratic politician(s) do you believe should be held accountable for not providing “adequate security” at the Capitol on January 6th?
WhatMattersisBlue says
Bob, I’ll have to circle back with an answer. I am watching Tucker Carlson.
Bob says
Blue, what a coincidence! I’m also watching Tucker. Obviously,we BOTH need help. In my defense I mute the volume and turn on the closed-caption. How bout we both agree to never watch him again?
SoulCrusher says
Agreed. The police testimony given today about January 6th was laughable. They were crying and acting like a bunch of Democratic panty wastes. As for the person responsible for security of the Capital, well, Nancy Pelosi was in charge and she alone is responsible for any security issues. However, if the Democrats hadn’t staged a fraudulent national election, none of this would’ve ever happened.

“Capitol police officer says Jan. 6 rioters used N-word against him, others”
https://www.politico.com/news/2021/07/27/captiol-police-racial-slurs-500846
I understand why Officer Dunn used the full word, but I still hate it. The sound of the word makes my skin crawl..
SoulCrusher says
If you get “emotional distress” over a person who calls you a name, you shouldn’t be a cop. If a word makes your “skin crawl”, it is because you are a panty waste. Officer Dunn and any cop like him are FAR too sensitive and should look for other employment. The police that “testified” did so on behalf of the Democratic Party and did not blame Nancy Pelosi for her ignoring credible intelligence that a breach at the Capital could take place. The intelligence was even provided by the FBI, whom we are now finding out are using their own to incite crime and manufacturing crime all across this country, on behalf of the Democratic Traitors Against America. The Democratic idiots fail to mention that the only person killed during the riot was a protester in the riot and that is the only thing that made the events on Jan. 6th …”deadly”. The Democrats and their state run media and social network companies are fabricating and manufacturing hate, descent, racism and crime all across this country while letting their own get away with murder. That’s what should make your skin crawl, but that doesn’t suit your political agenda…idiot.
Open Your Eyes says
I was a police officer for over thirty years. During that time I was assaulted in many ways such as, but not limited to being shot at, cut, punched, kicked, spit on, etc. and subject to verbal attacks to include verbal attacks directed at my mother. It happens. It is part of the job. During the subsequent trials and hearings I was “never” ask by anyone to articulate how the aforementioned incidents impacted me emotionally. The Democrats need to give the histrionics a rest. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that this whole hearing is a well scripted, well choreographed, witch-hunt. I am in no way close to being the sharpest knife in the drawer but it troubles me that the Democrats are attempting insult, no assassinate the intelligence of the American people.
Bob says
The Jan 6th Hearing is not a “witch hunt”. It’s not “histrionics”. It’s not an attempt by the Democrats to “assassinate” the intelligence of the American people. It’s an effort to find the truth and hold those responsible “accountable”. Liz Cheney said it best, “We must know what happened”. Covering up, ignoring, or turning a blind eye to the truth is not an option.
WhatMattersisBlue says
How could anyone be satisfied with the current situation? Seniors are afraid, not of covid risks but rather being victims of violent crime. Our children are suffering injuries (mental & physical), not from covid but rather mask mandates. Our way of life is changing under a government that is slowly taking away our civil liberties. Our government leaders, who hold power, are old, cranky, and vindictive. Bob, no one cares about Liz Cheney. I agree with OYE…the January 6th hearing is not about finding the truth.
SoulCrusher says
Ok. You want to play this game and spin it, so here we go. I’ll tell you exactly what happened. The Democratic Traitors Against America and the NEW WORLD ORDER (aka the UN), did intentionally use an either deliberate or accidental release of a man manipulated disease to stage an illegal and unconstitutional election that actually disenfranchised the entire American population by allowing the TRAITOR, Joe Biden, to become President of the GREATEST Country on this earth. That is what happened and that is why Jan. 6th did occur. This wasn’t an insurrection because the government in place isn’t duly elected. Millions of votes were tallied across this nation where no voter registration or ballot was sent out. It was a complete shit show and the globalist NEW WORLD ORDER did steal the election on behalf of the Democratic “Not See” Party. You didn’t like the riot? Well, those who were at D.C. on Jan. 6th didn’t like the fake election. Don’t want another riot? Don’t stage another fake election…there’s you’re answer you idiot…
John P. Mallamo says
Mr., Mrs., Miss, Ms. Bob
Sir/Ma’am,
I have doubts on whether you believe what you post on this forum. Your comments are too well constructed to be provocative, indefensible, and appear simple. I have never observed any defense, even your own, of those comments. I believe that your postings are intended to elicit a response from those with opposing views.
To your thought on Liz Cheney’s desire to know what happened on 6 January 2021. It is quite obvious, to even the casual observer. There was a large assembly of people protesting, who then assembled at the Capitol, were then either allowed in or forced their way in. The police force had no comprehensive plan for the event and was quickly and predictably overwhelmed. President Trump was criticized for his inaction. Had he intervened, no doubt he would have been charged with formulating a coup by infringing on the authority of Congress. The real question is what laws will be formulated to prevent a similar occurrence, what new Federal agency will be granted sweeping powers and authority and who will be criminalized by those laws.
To all who are confused by the CDC/NIH guidance regarding the COVID episode, please read the Affordable Care Act. It is quite lengthy, and refers to various sections of other legislation, but the language is very simple. Pay particular attention to the discussion on the committee that will determine best medical practices, medical treatment, and who will be eligible for those treatments. We are all now witness to the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, Obama Care. It was never about providing health care to those who could not afford it. It was always all about forming a central authority for all aspects of health care.
To those concerned about the increase in criminal activity in various parts of the country, study the French revolution, Russian revolution, China’s revolution, Cuba’s revolution. Contrast those to the American revolution. I would submit that of them all only the American revolution was formulated on and produced individual liberties. Be very wary of calls for an expanded police force/presence in some cities. When the government determines which acts are crimes, you may be the criminal.
If you are concerned about the future, then consider your involvement. It is no longer enough to vote and pay taxes. Show up at the meetings of local government and sound off.
I leave you with these thoughts. Read the poem Invictus by William Ernest Henley. It is, unfortunately, associated with consummate evil of some people, but does summarize the concept of individual responsibility. Second read Taylor Caldwell, Captains and Kings, beware the “Gnomes of Zurich”.

John, I let my comments speak for themselves. I don’t feel the need to defend them. The facts are what they are. Rest assured the views and opinions expressed in my postings are deeply held and firmly believed.
I like Henley’s poem “Invictus”, especially the last two lines:
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
Just Sayn says
Bob do you actually buy into this bullshit you are trying to peddle onto the rest of us.
The reality is that Democrats allowed cities burn for months, more than 25 deaths, countless injured, hundreds of businesses burned and looted, countless federal and state monuments destroyed and damaged, over one billion dollars in damages and democrats stood mute. Not one investigation and those who were arrested had their charges dropped. People were literally burning down police stations and democrats have called for no investigations nor was anyone charged with domestic terrorism.
So a few people charged into the capital, so what. If the rioters from last summer had breached the capital, it would have been burned to the ground. The double standard for protests from the left vs the right is clearly on display and these hearings are just claptrap.
1/6 protesters are held without due process while people who tried to set fire to federal buildings and kill federal officers have their bail raised by elected democrats.
Now all of a sudden the partly of lawlessness wants investigations. The entire time they label the right as insurrectionists for trespassing the actual RIOTERS on the left are labeled as peaceful protestors and when they set up a chop zone and threaten police with violence if they enter, somehow these people are not labeled or charged as insurrectionists.
Unless your going to also investigate and charge people for the months of riots by the left. I have no respect nor time for such bias, one-sided investigations whatsoever. If rioters are not insurrectionists then trespassers can’t be either.
Bob says
Just Sayn, what you mistakenly call “bullshit” is just an uncomfortable truth that you are not ready to accept. I understand. Just maybe, if I keep peddling the “truth” you’ll eventually come around.

As far as the former Interior Secretary, Ryan Zinke, that’s another story. He is a Trump-Retread with a checkered pass. The people of Montana are better off without him.

Open Your Eyes says
Blue, we both know that I rarely agree with the incessant rants and ramblings of my good friend Bob. However, he might very well be on to something this time. He speaks of CMD (Convenient Memory Disease) . It does seem to occur. I support this hypothesis and can site a vey important example to support my conclusions. I give you Mr. Hunter Biden. Mr. Biden is the son of that “exceptional leader” and POTUS Mr. Joseph Biden. With in the very recent past, this gentleman has been exposed smoking crack cocaine, purchasing “hookers”, fraudulently making a Federal Firearms Application, and then was captured using very disingenuous and offensive statements about Black people. This conduct should be a very grave concern to all Americans due to the fact that Hunter Biden was raised in the Joseph Biden household and that is where he “should have” acquired proper socialization and a solid moral, ethical, and behavioral qualities. Very interesting really. In just a very short time liberals, Democrats, and the MSM have seemed to forget, or overlook Hunter Biden’s behavior. Again, Bob might very well have something this time.

She wasn’t a career criminal with numerous arrests for robbery, drug violations, carjacking, home invasions and assault to name a few. She was just a Cop.

I am so frustrated by the violence directed at our Police. You heard me, our Police. Elected officials are supporting this outrageous behavior. Who would vote for this political agenda? Who believes disrespecting authority is a good thing in a civilized society? The disrespect demonstrated in Chicago to the family of a fallen hero, Officer Ella French, is heartbreaking! She was covering her partner critically wounded by multiple gunshots. A simple traffic stop gone bad? This was another violent murder by thugs, aka bad guys.
So the corrupt, hypocrites in DC decide to memorialize January 6th with honors and plaques for the Capital Police. Don’t stop there….every police station, precinct, barracks, and department should be honored for their service to protect and keep us safe in this society that makes the bad guys victims. Our Police should be given huge salary increases for the work they do every time they put on a uniform.

Don’t you like the way he instructed those Americans to get their name on a list. Meanwhile, homes are being searched (door to door) for American workers/refugees. They are already violating women; gifting young girls to their soldiers for sex slavery. No one is safe in Afghanistan and once again we are being misinformed by Biden’s crew. Way to go Commander-in-Chief.
Open Your Eyes says
Some people on this site have labeled President Biden an “Exceptional Leader”. He can’t even control and manage the behavior and affairs of his family let alone the problems facing our country and the world. Look at how he has tried to influence and buy his son Hunter out of trouble. I hope this Afghanistan/Taliban situation is monitored very closely. I hope and pray that the Biden administration in no way, shape, or form offers any type of payment, or as I like to call it, a ransom to the Taliban in exchange for their promise to “play nice “. You know similar to the less than above board payments to the Iranians made by former President Obama. Sadly our country is being run by a clueless, inept, balless leader. Even the Democrats are starting to realize he is not qualified or fit to do the job. I only hope it is not to late.
Bob says
He is an exceptional leader. He might have dementia and so what if his son looses a laptop or two while on a crack bender. We all make mistakes. While I don’t have the coin for high priced hookers, I can relate by smashing dudes after a few taps to the foot, I even ask for a 10-15 second spoon session afterwards.

WhatMattersisBlue says
SC…Now that’s a horrifying thought!!!!
Open Your Eyes says
It doesn’t look good. Our Secretary of State, another “exceptional leader” stated that there were two primary options remaining regarding the current Afghanistan situation. Diplomatic and economic. All of us need to monitor this situation very carefully. If an economic solution translates in to safe passage payments or as I refer to as a ransom this generates several questions. Who is going to pay for this and how? Over 74 million Americans voted for President Trump who would not have orchestrated such a cluster f- – k. This is a Biden blunder. I think that Biden supporters should foot the bill. The only problem is such a large segment of supporters of President Biden vote for a living but don’t work for a living. This guy has really painted this country in to a corner. The sad thing is he has 3 1/2 years left. God help us!
SoulCrusher says
Agreed. If anyone can’t see that Biden is an incompetent moron at this point…then they are a moron too. Whether it is issues on the domestic front or the international front, this man seems to ALWAYS make the wrong moves. He is not working for Americans or our best interests and it is VERY obvious. Since he is NOT working for us, one has to wonder who he is working for? Who is pulling his strings? Who is really in charge? This is the intentional destruction of our Country and its reputation which is what ALL of our enemies want. Biden is guilty of Article 3 Section 3 and so is the entire group of idiots that want to harm our Country….

When is enough “enough”? I just read an article about East Lake H.S. In Washington State. The students came up with a red, white, and blue theme remembering the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attack on America. The school administration made the decision to cancel the idea siting “ that the incident might be perceived as racially insensitive and may affect some people in a way that we will not be able to understand “ They did not want to unintentionally cause harm to some who see it differently. What a bunch of liberal B.S. What about the feelings of the millions of patriotic Americans who were victimized both mentally and physically by that vicious and heinous attack on our country? In my mind the administrators of that high school are the lowest of the low. They are on the same level as the the New York Times article attempting to imply that those people who proudly display the American flags on their vehicles could very well be racists and white Supremacist. Things are getting beyond crazy.
WhatMattersisBlue says
OYE…Sad that we had to remain silent to quiet the noise and vulgar attacks on this thread. I agree with your POV. To change the subject, I am frustrated with the vaccine mandates. Medical & Nursing professionals are leaving hospitals because they have knowledgeably decided to decline a vaccine. Doesn’t that speak volumes about the science that is being interpreted by the very people with the knowledge and experience to make the right decision?!? What is happening in our hospitals with nursing shortages has nothing to do with covid. The very people who have worked “wholeheartedly” during this pandemic do not need indoctrination into white privilege and diversity. Administration is breaking the very good people who never cared about Mr. Potato Head’s gender. While hospital administrators participated in the government’s money grab, the dedicated staff worked without PPE supplies and were at risk every shift. The hospital staff can call balls & strikes based on their experiences over the last 18 months. They are not getting the vaccine and now losing their jobs. These noble people will always do the right thing!
