Reflections of An Uncommon Common Man

 On the way home from work today I heard a recording of Joe Bidens former press secretary Jen "Circle Back" Psaki crying over the deaths of the children killed in the Minnesota Catholic school shooting. She was complaining of how tired she was of this kind of thing happening and the fact that there are more guns in America than there are people. That all Trump and the Republicans have to offer is prayers for the victims and their families. Do you actually think that those of us who believe in the 2nd Amendment don't grieve when these senseless things happen? That's why we believe in the 2nd Amendment. We would love to offer more than prayers but because of your party's policies we have to stand by while people needlessly die. I thank God that there are so many guns in America and by the grace of God I hope it stays that way.  Jen, let me tell you what I am tired of. I am tired of hearing about gun control. Your party has been calling for gun control ever since the...

  When I began working at Colonial Baking company in 1973 I was working in the bun room. It was one of the hardest jobs I have ever worked in my life. In the nine years that I worked there I lost fifty pounds from the heat and fast pace. On average the hours were extremely long. Two days a week we couldn't leave until all the bun orders were finished. There were many days that I worked anywhere from sixteen to twenty hours straight. I was so tired some days that I could barely make it to my car at the end of the shift. We were supposed to get a ten minute break every two hours. We couldn't leave the line until we were relieved by a break man. Our first breaks were usually on time but after our fourth hour the break man would get further and further behind because people were taking longer breaks. It would get to the point that you could go hours without a break. I hated this situation. When I complained about it people would say that I just had to get used to it. This is just t...

 One of my goals in life is to try to convince as many people as I can before I die that there is not that much difference between the Democrat party of the 1800's and the Democrat party of the 21st century. Yes, their constituencies have changed and they are mostly Communists today but their goals are essentially the same. Maintain power to protect the immoral and twisted priorities of the wealthy party oligarchs. Whether it was the slaveowner, or the big city and state corrupt political bosses. Or the powerful globalist oligarchs of today. They do this by using the same violent tactics. In the old South it was the Klan and today it is Communist thugs such as Antifa and BLM. Their ultimate tactic is always to divide and conquer. They pit the common man against themselves when in reality we have more in common with each other than we do with the Democrat leaders that divide us. As always the Democrats are obsessed with race. One of my favorite scenes from the movie (Free State Of J...

 I remember hearing Nikita Khruschev utter these words as a child during the late 1950's, which was the height of the Cold War. I never worried too much about this until I began to see the real influence of Communism on America during the 1960's and 70's as a result of the Vietnam War. Even when I was a Democrat I knew the party was being heavily influenced by Communists but I considered it a fringe element. The party seemed to change after the 1972 presidential election. I am convinced that it is in essence the American Communist Party today. The American Communist Party used to run a candidate for president every four years. In 1948 Henry Wallace, who had been Vice President under FDR from 1941 until 1945 was the presidential candidate of the ACP in 1948. Luckily FDR didn't die during those years. I remember a guy named Gus Hall who ran as the ACP candidate almost every presidential election for many years. Now the ACP doesn't bother to run candidates. They simply...

   I posted this picture of Edward " Big Balls" Coristine who was beaten up by juvenile car jackers in Washington D.C. recently. This brave 19 year old defended his girlfriend from being attacked. Something that real men do. Luckily the police happened to be driving by and saved his life. President Trump is taking over law enforcement in Washington because of incidents like this. This is long overdue. In my view Congress should end home rule in Washington. When the Democrats imposed the present form of government there in 1973 the ultimate goal was to move towards statehood giving them another Communist state and thus more power for the bad guys. Things have deteriorated ever since. It is laughable when I hear Democrats talk about how crime has dropped in Washington D.C. This coming from the same people who told us that Biden was sharp as a tack, or that January 6th was an insurrection, and Trump was colluding with the Russians. These people are incapable of telling the truth...

There was another shooting at a military base. Yesterday, at Fort Stewart Georgia Quornelius Radford shot and wounded 5 of his coworkers. Luckily no one was killed this time. The worst shooting ever on a military base was at Fort Hood Texas on November 5, 2009. A radicalized Islamic soldier, Nidal Hassan killed 13 and wounded 30. Obama refused to call it what it was, a terrorist attack. He called it workplace violence instead. There have been a number of mass shootings on military bases over the years and of all places they should not be gun free zones. Most military personnel, regardless of the career field that they ultimately end up in are trained to fire rifles, properly care for them, and how to safely handle them in basic training and boot camp. I believe the Navy trains with handguns in boot camp. Career fields such as MP's, pilots, special warfare, infantry, and others are taught how to use handguns. It makes no sense to trust service personnel with a weapon in combat, or i...

 The 4th anniversary of my son's death on August 24, 2021 is fast approaching. My son, Jon Segroves, died from complications of COVID. Some in my family might think that I am politicizing his death. I am sorry if they feel that way but if the people that murdered him are not held accountable his death was in vain. Something like COVID should never be able to happen again. When COVID first hit like everyone else I knew very little about it. Too late to save my son I have gotten a pretty good education on the subject since his death. I was always suspicious of the timing of COVID. President Trump was finishing up a very successful first term in spite of Trump Derangement Syndrome, Russia Gate, the impeachments, lawfare, investigations, and his establishment staff stabbing him in the back at every turn. Most people would not have survived these attacks much less been as successful of a president as Donald Trump was during his first term. Political analysts on the left and right were s...

  In July 1973 it was discovered during the Watergate hearings that president Nixon had been taping oval office conversations since 1971. This led to the knowledge of the "Smoking Gun" tape. This  tape revealed the fact that Nixon had ordered the CIA to obstruct the FBI's investigation of the break in of the DNC headquarters in the Watergate office building in June of 1972. Democrats and many Republicans said that this scandal was the greatest constitutional crisis in history and that no one was above the law. It would ultimately lead to the resignation of Richard Nixon in August 1974. Although I was a Democrat at the time I voted for Nixon in November 1972. He was the first president that I was able to vote for. George McGovern, his Democrat opponent, was too far to the left even for me so I voted for Nixon. I wasn't alone because Nixon won by the fourth largest landslide in American history. In my view Nixon had done a good job during his first term. Especially afte...

 Florida recently passed a law that people sixteen years and above cannot wear a mask or cover their face while protesting. I love this law and have advocated for this going back to the Obama administration when rioters were covering their faces. I refuse to call them protesters. They are the true insurrectionists and like their forefathers the Ku Klux Klan they are cowards. Groups like Antifa, Black Lives Matter and other Communist groups serve the same purpose as the Klan, and Hitler's Brown shirts. The Klan was the terrorist arm of the Democrat party and these modern groups are also terrorist arms of the Democrats. Their primary purpose is to intimidate and obstruct. The Klan was used to intimidate and terrorize black voters in the South as well as white Republicans who were trying to enforce Federal law. Today the purpose of these modern thugs is to obstruct the enforcement of Federal immigration laws and to intimidate any political opposition to Democrat policies. We need a Fe...

 Patriotic American's are rightfully up in arms about the possible election of the Communist/Islamist Zohran Mamdani in New York City. I totally understand this but news flash, we have had Communist mayors for years. There is not a dimes worth of difference between the mayors of Seattle, Portland, Nashville, Memphis, Chicago and Los Angeles. Heck LA mayor Karen Bass was a former member of a Communist guerilla group with ties to Cuba. The difference here is that Mamdani is more open about the fact that he is a Communist and that he is unashamedly wanting to destroy capitalism. Even a Communist blue city like Nashville would never elect a mayor as candid about their real political beliefs as Mamdani. Depending on the demographics a Democrat candidate has to exercise some discretion in order to be elected. Mamdani, however represents the cynical alliance between Communists, Islamists, and anarchists to destroy the West. This is a dangerous game that they are playing. There is an old s...

 A few years ago it dawned on me that the modern day Democrat party is basically the same party that started the American Civil War in 1861. At that time Lincoln was their Donald Trump. Democrats had LDS, or Lincoln Derangement Syndrome. No president was more hated in his lifetime than Abraham Lincoln. That is until Donald Trump came along. For the Democrats it is always a power thing. All they care about is gaining power and holding on to it. In Lincoln's day blacks were their target of oppression. Today, the straight white male, or anyone who declares themselves to be a Conservative regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation is their target if they side with the Conservative movement. Divide and conquer has always been the Democrats strategy. The great abolitionist Frederick Douglass stated that the Democrat master placed a wedge between the black slave and poor whites. The poor white had more in common with the slave than he did with the master. Douglas said "they di...

     Okay patriots let's get real. President Trump, based on his foreign policy accomplishments alone, in both his first and second terms, will rank in history as one of our greatest presidents. Personally, I rank him third behind Washington and Lincoln. He took out ISIS in three weeks, isolated Iran, produced the Abraham Accords and compelled European nations in NATO to provide more funding for their own defense. In his second term by planning in coordination with Israel they have eliminated threats in Iran by destroying their air defense capabilities, killing their nuclear scientists and decapitating their military leadership. Israel also diminished much of their nuclear capabilities on the ground. They have marginalized the threat from Iranian proxies on their borders such as Hamas and Hezbolah and we took out the Hoothies in Yemen. All this to set up the final coup de grace by American B-2 bombers that destroyed their nuclear capabilities for the indefinite future. Pr...

 Justice can be defined this way. When laws are enforced and justice is fairly served. Or it can be defined as just or fair treatment. Vengeance on the other hand is punishment inflicted or retribution exacted for an injury or wrong. In my view vengeance can also be part of the justice process. These definitions only apply in a perfect society, or a society that is striving for perfection. It has not been the case in America for a very long time. We have a two tiered justice system where Democrats can virtually commit any crime and never be held accountable. That is Democrats who walk the party line and never buck the system. This doesn't apply to Democrats like RFK Jr, Tulsi Gabbard, or Eric Adams who have the nerve to think for themselves. Because of Democrats we are seeing law abiding good Samaritan citizens like Daniel Penny and Kyle Rittenhouse prosecuted for defending themselves and others. While at the same time perpetrators are ignored, slapped on the hand, released from ja...
