Social Policing

~ Randy Harris ~ Leave a comment

So does Midnight basketball ring a bell?  Not sure if anyone is old enough to remember Bill Clinton’s grand scheme to redo the police departments and make cops social workers.  I can still hear him in his famous aw shucks voice telling us the virtues of finding something constructive for the you men to do.  Come to find our it was basically a way to funnel money to democratic causes.  Didn’t stop crime, didn’t really make a difference.  Typical liberal, he tried and for that he was a folk hero.

I am beginning to wonder who is advising the President? Yeah there are bad cops, but 99% or more I think are selfless honorable men and women.  I can not imagine how it would feel to have someone spit in my face or yell obscenities at me, or try to wrestle me down and take my gun.  Would I overreact?  Probably.  The problem is respect for the authority of the Police.  Tough and thankless job.  I honor you for your service.

God protect our protect those who  protecct us.

SUPREME COURT REDEFINES SEX DISCRIMINATION TO INCLUDE LGBTQ

~ Randy Harris ~ 2 Comments

It is a sad day in the United States of America.  Let me say I as a Christian do not want harm or loss of job to anyone in America, however when a Church or other Christian organization would have to hire a gay person that is a wrong.  Deeply held morality from bodies of faith should and must be kept.  What is even more shocking  is that a conservative justice Gorsuch appointed by Trump has joined the libs on the court.  Roberts is and always will be a loose cannon, but Gorsucch?  One never knows the way an appointee will vote.  I will be curious to know if this will include hiring of LGBTQ persons or not.  If so, it will send ramifications through the faith community.  Churches should have the right and employees to hire who they want.

I understand this ruling was on a certain particular case that had nothing to do with faith institutions, but does anyone think it will  end there.  No, they are and always have been coming for Churches.

Ex-anchor Soledad O’Brien says CNN executive told her to host only the ‘right kind of black person’

Soledad O’Brien tweeted Saturday that a CNN executive had expressed an opinion about a certain individual being the wrong type of black person.

“This is an interesting read. Reminds me of the cnn exec who told me: “Roland Martin isn’t the ‘right kind of’ Black person.” She didn’t want me to book him on my show,” O’Brien tweeted.

“Charles Blow, she told me, (also a frequent guest) was ‘the right kind of Black,’” O’Brien said in another tweet.

New York Times columnist Charles Blow reacted to O’Brien’s assertions about the alleged comments. “I don’t know how to take this ‘good negro’ talk,” he wrote.

Roland Martin responded with his own allegations about CNN, including that he was cautioned against using the word “bruh.” Martin said he was told to “be careful saying stuff like bruh. We don’t want to scare away white viewers.”

CNN did not immediately return requests for comment from Just the News.

Border Patrol agents seized nearly $1 million worth of cocaine on June 6, according to a U.S. Customs and Border Protection press release. The interception occurred at the Gateway International Bridge in Brownsville, Texas.

“Our frontline CBP officers at the Port of Brownsville yet again affirmed their resolve to advance CBP’s border security mission and that commitment is reflected in this significant cocaine interception in the passenger vehicle environment,” said Port Director Tater Ortiz, Brownsville Port of Entry.

The smuggler attempted to bring the narcotics into the U.S. in their vehicle. Agents alerted to the vehicle discovered the 24 packages weighing 122 pounds. The drugs are estimated to have a $940,000 street value.

Trump and Religious Freedom

PRESIDENT TRUMP SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER ON ADVANCING RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Tuesday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to further protect religious freedom around the world. On behalf of the over two million members and supporters of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, we commend President Trump for making it absolutely clear that protecting religious freedom is a domestic and foreign policy priority.

The executive order outlines that the U.S. will budget at least $50 million per year for programs that advance international religious freedom. The White House will expand available economic tools to support our allies on religious freedom and address bad actors, whether by increasing religious freedom programming, realigning foreign assistance to better reflect country circumstances, restricting the issuance of visas, or deploying Global Magnitsky sanctions where appropriate. This order will also mandate more federal employees who work abroad to undergo training on international religious freedom.

“We are grateful to have a leader such as President Trump, who has made it so clear that he supports religious freedom and wants everyone to worship God freely,” said Timothy Head, executive director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition. “Our brothers and sisters are facing severe persecution around the world for their faith. Through this Executive Order, Trump is showing that he cares for the persecuted and is reaching out to protect and help them.”

In September 2019, President Donald J. Trump made history as the first American President to convene a meeting of global leaders at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to address International Religious Freedom.  The President was clear when he called upon “the nations of the world to end religious persecution.”  This Executive Order fully integrates the President’s vision – a vigorous defense of International Religious Freedom rights for all – into key aspects of United States foreign policy. Yet again, President Trump is taking a decisive action to keep his promise to people of faith around the world.

Free Speech not Free Violence

I am proud to live in America.  I am proud of our history of being a nation that is first on the scene of any and all world disasters.  We, even if our efforts don’t always end like we like always try to make the world a better place.  We are not racist nor are we inherently racist.  People have a right to peaceable protest and make their grievances known to the proper authorities.  With that said, there is a difference in protest and civil disobedience.  Violence, arson, looting, rioting, beatings and even killings have wrapped themselves around the protests.  This must be stopped.  Destroying business and destroying peoples live are unacceptable.  Mob rule must not be tolerated in America.  It breaks my heart to see small children being indoctrinated into this cult.  It is a cult, Antifa demands kneeling with up raised hands and confession of guilt to gain absolution. Again why?  Because we are all racist.  We have all wronged all people of color.  We are guilty.  The nation that elected a black man eight years as President is racist?  We honor people who accomplish something in America regardless of skin tone.

NO we are not racist. This is not about race but power.  Check out who is funding them.  Powerful sitting politicians on the left and multi millionaire elitist.  Hollywood, sports icons etc.  It is a militant move on the sovereignty of the rule of law and our nation.  Destruction is their goal.  They want to tear down not build.  Those who accomplish nothing see no fear in tearing down something someone else built.

God Bless America.  To all our enemies I say God is not finished with the United States of America.
