In these trying times when fear, greed, and hypocrisy reign over the land; and every petty despot in local office is grabbing as much power as they dare---and they dare more and more because they're meeting so little resistance---it's easy to become discouraged. People cannot---or will not---see that what's going on here is another attempted coup d'etat; the most desperate roll of the dice thrown by the Deep State 'Elites' yet. Bear in mind that these scumbags on the Left have been calling for Trump's overthrow and martial law since 2016. They've found a pretext to invoke Emergency Powers; and are planning to extend the 'crisis' until September or so, whether COVID-19 is around or not.
So, I came across a good article at the blog The Vigilant Citizen. Now, full disclosure here: I'm not a regular reader of VC's. Most of his material is a bit too conspiratorial for my tastes. But he's a well-intentioned sort; and his recent post on the COVID-19 hysteria is spot on. He lists "three things to remember," and it's excellent advice.
"If COVID-19 is causing in you feelings of fear, panic, and anxiety, please repeat to yourself this timeless saying: 'This too shall pass'. Because it will...Often found in wisdom literature of the ancient Near East, the adage 'this too shall pass' aptly sums up the unconditionally temporary nature of human condition. It is a reminder that every single event in human history, whether it is a negative or a positive one, inevitably becomes a thing of the past. And, although there doesn’t seem to be a light at the end of the tunnel right now, this virus will also inevitably become a thing of the past. The only question is 'when?'. Not unlike all other living things in the world, epidemics rise, peak and decline. Sooner or later, this thing will peak and it will decline. In the past decades, SARS and H1N1 caused a great deal of panic. However, the only thing they are infecting now is history books."
How true that statement is. Western Civilization has been attacked before---both from within and without---but has defeated all attempts to overthrow it. When we look back at the threats our forefathers faced, what was a crisis to them looks like a forest-fire on the panorama of Eternity and within the scope of God's Providence.
VC's second point is really a good one: "2- You Don’t Need Up-to-the-Minute News Updates. If you can take away one thing from this site is that critical thinking is required when dealing with mass media. Sometimes, it doesn’t have our best interest at heart and, sometimes, it is even outright toxic. As people are confined to their homes with little to do, the urge to keep up with the news is constant. However, not all news is good to consume. Some of it actually is vile, toxic crap."
Actually, most of it is. But to continue: "Now, more than ever, we need to remain calm, rational and level-headed. And limiting our daily intake of “panic news” is a great start. Trust me, I know that it is difficult to resist the urge to grab one’s phone and look-up news articles about the virus. I sometimes find myself doing it without even realizing it. But it is simply not healthy or even necessary to do so."
VC is right: there really isn't any good purpose in listening to these media ratings-drives. Most of it are lies anyway. I have to confess that one of the worst things about this whole fiasco has been watching people who just a month ago sneered at the MSM suddenly shift into lockstep whenever these dirtbags snap their fingers.
His last advice is very sound: "If you look outside, the sun is still rising and birds are still chirping. You are still on this Earth and you still have one life to live. Even if you are in lockdown, quarantine or whatever else, you are still in control of yourself and your surroundings. You still need to sleep well, eat healthily and exercise regularly. If you’re stuck at home, put down your phone for a while and use this time to take care of your people, read a good book, work on creative projects and, if possible, go outside and seek the healing presence of nature."
The reason that this is sound advice is simply because---in this miasma of fake news and irrationality---it's good to stop and then face the situation with a fresh eye. Good books and good movies have an especially salutary effect.
"While this advice might sound extremely boring and generic, this is what needs to be done right now in order to remain vigilant citizens. We need to remain sharp and focused, not weak and fearful. Because, at this point, it doesn’t matter where this virus comes from, what (or who) is behind it and how dangerous it really is. It already managed to shut down the entire world."
I'd encourage everyone to follow the link and check out the whole article. There are so few voices of reason out there now, we must listen while we can.

VOX DAY: MARTIAL LAW IS OUR CHRISTIAN HOPE
So, ever since the COVID flu hit European and American shores, the Red Pilled menace hasn't been silent. Vox Day---whom they all seem to be parroting---has been especially giddy with excitement. To summarize about three weeks of his near-hourly verbal rampages, Vox sees some prophecy of Q Anon being fulfilled; is actually hoping for an imposition of martial law followed by slaughter and enslavement of every group whom these guys hate.
Of course, what these dodos are doing is engaging in a lot of psychological. Failures at life; they want an apocalypse where they'll be on top and everyone else will bow to them. In real life, martial law doesn't work like that. Out on the Pacific Coast, we're under a de facto martial law spearheaded by Left-Wing goons Gavin Newsom and Jay Inslee. They've set up orders that prohibit attending church. And sadly, many so-called Conservatives---who only a month ago were opposing things like these governors' tax and gun control policies---are suddenly all in favor of handing the cretins in Sacramento and Olympia absolute power over our very lives. In many US states now, the Constitution has essentially become a Dead Letter. This hardly sounds like anything that Agent Q promotes.
What's especially irritating though is that Vox has been interspersing all of these diatribes with hypocritical articles about the Christian Faith. It doesn't matter what their topics are: at this point, anything coming from Vox' mouth is blasphemy. He writes these things in between articles celebrating recent high-profile suicides, and advocating that Senior Citizens and immigrants be left to die. This is obviously neither a Conservative nor a Christian position, yet it seems that too many are buying into this false narrative.
" Hate is good for your health. Especially racial hate...if you weren't already convinced that anti-racism is immoral, at least you should now be able to grasp that it is both unhygenic and anti-public health. President Trump's "racist" action in shutting down travel from China earlier than the experts advised almost certainly saved many American lives."
But, Vox: the President's travel ban wasn't racist in the first place. Just recently, Trump banned travel from Britain. And during the height of the epidemic in Asia, China not only banned foreigners, they prohibited Chinese people from travelling within China. None of this has anything to do with racial hatred.
Here Vox explains the Christian logic of letting the Elderly perish. It's actually a radical version of survival-of-the-fittest philosophy that even most Evolutionists would disavow in shame:
"This isn't a "Boomers must die" program. This is merely the time-honored, eucivilizational concept of "child-bearing women and children first". Only a Boomer could possibly assume that not being prioritized is tantamount to a death sentence."
What a chump. For the people whom you disparagingly refer to as 'Boomers', it is very likely tantamount to a death sentence not to prioritize them. This is because Senior Citizens have a death rate from COVID-19 of 20% compared to less than 1% of people under 40. And since Vox has been quoting Scripture a lot lately: where exactly did Christ tell us to abandon care for the elderly?
"First, the principles of triage dictate that the old people most at risk be treated last. Their treatment consumes more medical resources to less avail than any other population. Second, the principles of economics dictate that old people most at risk be treated last. Their treatment costs considerably more, which means fewer of them can be treated. Third, the principles of fairness dictate that old people be treated last. They have already lived most of their lives, where the young have not. And fourth, the principles of societal survival dictate that old people be treated last. They can neither maintain or sustain society, while the young must live if society is to survive."
This guy is seriously stupid. The Principles of Triage apply to mass-casualty incidents: not to epidemics where the Elderly is most at risk. The really frustrating thing about Vox is that he picks up terms that he doesn't understand himself and uses them to bedazzle the goofuses who follow him and understand them even less. In mass-casualty events like earthquakes, for example, physicians have to prioritize patients by the seriousness of their conditions. This isn't about rationing resources, as Vox claims. "Prioritizing medical treatement for the young over the elderly is not only acceptable, it is absolutely necessary, especially in times when resources are limited. Not only is it not "ageism" to deprioritize the treatment of the elderly, it is pure anti-societal narcissism for any elderly individual to demand equal medical priority for his age cohort." What we need in an epidemic is increasing resources---like finding a cure. For some reason, Vox doesn't think that the US or EU countries have the capacity to manufacture medical supplies. Actually, most EU countries have stockpiled medical equipment as national policy since the 1950s.
To give a sense of how grounded in reality Vox Day really is, here's his advice to President Trump---as if Trump pays any attention to anything that some kooky expat has to say:
"But it shouldn't end with a national emergency, as the next step will be a declaration of martial law as the Storm is unleashed. Note that European governments are already beginning to extend school and other closures to April 30th. Ever wonder how long it would take to round up, process, and try 150,000 people? Apparently about two months."
There we have it. Trump is supposed to declare martial law and elevate the Alphas to power. The chumps who follow Vox actually believe this stuff. And to any mainstream Conservative who thinks that martial law is good---consider carefully that Vox is likely the source of what you're hearing.

PANIC FOR PROFIT IN THE CORPORATE MEDIA
This has been yet another rough week in the Land of Free with Left-Wing nutjob governors and local authorities grabbing as much power as possible with little or no resistance. Americans are showing off their exceptionalism once again; as greed, selfishness, fake news, fear, and unquestioning obedience are once again the order of the day. Just like the Good Old Days of the Deep State have returned with a vengeance.
We're reliving all those fun pre-2016 times all over again. New Normals like 'shelter-in-place' and 'social distancing' have popped up again everywhere. We have to accept these new social trends---without any discussion or reasons for them explained---except that the Elites say that we're supposed to. From the Mainstream Media (whom we know never lies about anything) we're given the outrage/crisis of the hour---which we're all supposed to feel angry/afraid about; and if you don't, you're written off as a conspiracy-kook. And last, but certainly not least, plenty of advice and tips on how to profit in these changing times.
Voices of reason have been few and far between. There have also been a lot of good deeds being done; but one really has to dig deep down through the mire of MSM excrement to find them. These are stories like that of Dr. Alison Holman of the UC-Irvine and Dr. Robert Quigley of International SOS explaining who's really behind panic-buying of things like bath tissue and hand sanitizers.
“A week ago, there were a handful of articles in major newspapers saying, here’s what you should do to prepare for [COVID-19]. And one of the top things that was listed on at least two or three websites, major media outlets, was: Buy toilet paper. I think some of the freak-out about getting toilet paper has to do with that.” Dr. Holman said, and she also added that "the whole modus operandi by the outlets was to capitalize on people’s concerns over the virus."
I'm certain that the fact that 80% of America's toilet-paper comes from three conglomerates: Georgia-Pacific, Kimberley-Clark, and Proctor & Gamble which spend about $3 billion combined on advertising in the Corporate Media is just a coincidence. The fact that the Media caused a run on products---totally useless for fighting the COVID-19 virus---had certainly nothing to do with the interests of any of these people. Even though P & G is the 4th largest US advertiser (and #1 globally); and Georgia-Pacific is run by notorious Never-Trumpers the Koch Brothers; the MSM must certainly put the interests of the country first, right?
In fact, just looking at a list of America's top 100 advertisers, we see quite a few who profit from both Coronavirus Panic and Government Crackdowns. Besides P & G, we see companies who also manufacture similar products: Johnson & Johnson (22); Unilever (34); Reckitt---the owner of the Lysol brand--- is at #77; Clorox is at #95 and the Henkel home products conglomerate ranks 99th. The big box-stores and online retailers whose stockpiles are flying off the shelves are represented too: Amazon (3); Walmart (11); Target (28); Home Depot (42); Kroger (61); Walgreen's (73); Ebay (80); and Albertson's (89). None of this is biasing the media in any way, shape, or form, right? Big Pharma---who'll get government subsidies out of the whole mess for certain---have nine spots in the Top 100; and the Insurance Cartels---also poised for a bailout---have four.
Nothing in the Corporate Media should be believed. I've seen stories lately that even blame Russian and Chinese 'disinformation agents' for the few voices contradicting their official narrative. The reality is that the Corporate Media is---as they have been for the last 40-50 years---nothing but shills of Wall Street and the Left Wing of the DNC.

PANIC ATTACKS AND POWER GRABS
Well, like a lot of other blog-writers and vlog-producers, we've been finding out that our promises to ignore the COVID-19 hysteria is easier said than done. This whole thing is turning into one big Domino Effect. The Liberals and the Media inflamed the situation to cause a panic that they could blame on President Trump. Some elements of the populace panicked and are now out of control. Liberal politicians and Wall Street freebooters are seeing a chance to use the chaos to grab power and profit. The panic worsens, and so on.
President Trump is caught in the middle of all this. The Administration's really done about all it can do. In fact, they've probably done some things that weren't even necessary, just to try and calm things down. Over the weekend, though, arch-RINO Governor Mike DeWine, and the usual Left-Wing troublemakers--- Cuomo, Newsom, and Inslee---took the draconian step of shutting down private businesses. Restaurants, bars, and lounges are indefinitely closed in Ohio, New York, California, and Washington. Other governors are vying to see who can put the hammer down fastest.
Can governors legally do this? Unfortunately, they can. On a large scale nationwide, it hasn't happened since 1919; and among a few localities into the 1940's. And those were because of real threats to public health---not some new form of the flu that 98% of the infected fully recover from.
So what happens to all these jobs that are going to be lost and small businesses that will close? The answer is that none of these so-called 'Elites' actually care. If their actions cause an economic downturn; all the better---they can blame Trump for that, too. The smart boys and the sharpers on Wall Street can swoop in and pick up the pieces.
That's the picture behind the curtain; and the American people need to put down the Prozac and the Hookah pipes, and start screwing their eyeballs back into their empty skulls before it's too late. We didn't stop the Deep State dead in its tracks in 2016 just to surrender our freedoms, did we?
We need to start to pushing back. Yesterday, President Trump denounced panic buying, and a brave scientists and what's left of American journalism has begun to speak out. Here's some links to keep yourselves informed:

SILLY SNOWFLAKES PANIC WHILE GOOD MEN ROLL UP SLEEVES
So, we're into the first weekend of a National Panic Attack. On cue from the Media Hyenas, Americans by the thousands are stripping stores bare of bottled water, bath tissue, detergents, and over-the-counter Amphetamines, running to their Safe Spaces. It wasn't even this bad after the 9/11 Attacks---when for all we knew then, there could have been Al-Qaeda sleeper-cells ready to hit anywhere at any moment. And back in the Aged Grandpappy's time, the NFL didn't even suspend it's regular game-day on the Sunday that Pearl Harbor was attacked. For all they knew, Japanese bombers may have been incoming.
I was thinking the other day about how rough it's going to be for those guys who keep a damsel in the house if the stores run out of bath tissue. No XFL, NHL, or NBA but a weekend of listening to the Fair One's grievances---which you can do nothing to solve---is an unpleasant prospect.
Word to the wise: plenty of romantic restaurants and hotel getaways are still open---and unusually private because of the virus panic. While that might make for a more expensive weekend than usual: consider the alternative and act accordingly.
Otherwise, against the backdrop of the Media-driven hysteria, however, Good Men are doing Good Things. I read this morning on Nox & Friends' blog a great article about the successful conclusion of Project Python. Project Python was a DEA operation aimed at a really rotten gang called the 'Cartel Jalisco New Generation'. And, wow, did the Feds clean house. The CJNG was pretty much obliterated. 600 of these scumbags are in jail (presumably with no toilet paper) and another 350 are running from the FBI, Interpol, and various other agencies on outstanding warrants. CJNG was until this week a major distributor of Meth from foreign sources trafficked into the US.
And while politicians are finger-pointing during this so-called crisis, Attorney Kasim Rashid---who's running for a Congressional seat in Virginia---began receiving anti-Moslem messages from a radicalized and Red-Pilled man named Oz Dillon, of Fredericksburg. Instead of running screaming to the press and police as most politicians would do; Rashid investigated and found that Dillon also had a GoFundMe page which read:
"Our retirement savings is gone, and my wife's inheritance nearly so, due to the rising costs of my wife, and my medical care. With an income, after taxes of $3,126 a month, or around $38k a year, we are literally broke, by the 23rd of each month. This is the sole income we have. If we can reach even half of what we are asking for, we will be able to at least squeak by each month, without having to go further into credit card debt, or touching my wife's inheritance.
"We still owe on her hospitalization for a double pulmonary embolism, that nearly cost her life, and subsequent frequent checkups and medications. My insurance has doubled in cost, and covers less of our medical needs. The house needs to be made Handicap Accessible due to wife's mobility issues. She has no cartilage in her knees at all, and is a poor risk for surgery. All of this is driving us into the poor house, where soon we will be forced to sell our home, if things do not turn around. It truly pains me to ask for help, but we are at out wits end in finding a solution that does not drive us deeper into debt. God bless to all who can help us out, in whatever way possible."
Rashid realized that at the bottom of Dillon's radicalization lay a problem common to many men today: hoping to save his wife, Dillon's hands were tied by a brutalized system and forced into the humiliation of begging for alms. He donated enough to cover Dillon's expenses and encouraged his followers to do so---resulting in bills paid with a $20,000 surplus. Rashid responded as one real man to another; the Red-Pilled scales fell from Dillon's eyes, and he publicly repented of his earlier hateful statements.
“An amazing week of eye- and heart-opening enlightenment, that I used to always have before 9/11,” Dillon told the local press, “A Christian Muslim, Qasim Rashid, who I had previously opposed politically just because of the word Muslim, has opened my eyes that there are GOOD people in all walks of life. He shared our plight with his followers, who in turn donated nearly $1,000 dollars to help Terri and I get rid of this crushing debt. I owe him, and everyone in fact, a deep debt of gratitude, and pray you are all rewarded tenfold, for your generosity.”
Rashid's really a pretty solid guy for a Democrat. You can't help but admire a guy who puts politics aside to help a brother in need.
And, after the COVID panic hit Columbus, Ohio and caused the cancellation of Arnold Schwarzneggar's annual body-building tournament, John Page---the manager of the Greater Columbus Convention Center--- found himself with enough food on hand to feed an estimated 200,000 spectators, he decided to load the edibles on trucks which then went to Tennessee to feed crews and families struck by last week's massive tornado.
“When the unique circumstances affecting the Arnold Sports Festival this year came to fruition, we were proud to be able to send excess food to assist Nashville residents impacted by true devastation while we focus our efforts here on supporting the Arnold Sports Festival in its revised format.” Page told the press.
Page, Rashid, and some good men in the DEA show up the Media lies that our nation is in free-fall. Good men are still out there, holding things together and getting the job done.
I was thinking the other day about how rough it's going to be for those guys who keep a damsel in the house if the stores run out of bath tissue. No XFL, NHL, or NBA but a weekend of listening to the Fair One's grievances---which you can do nothing to solve---is an unpleasant prospect.
Word to the wise: plenty of romantic restaurants and hotel getaways are still open---and unusually private because of the virus panic. While that might make for a more expensive weekend than usual: consider the alternative and act accordingly.
Otherwise, against the backdrop of the Media-driven hysteria, however, Good Men are doing Good Things. I read this morning on Nox & Friends' blog a great article about the successful conclusion of Project Python. Project Python was a DEA operation aimed at a really rotten gang called the 'Cartel Jalisco New Generation'. And, wow, did the Feds clean house. The CJNG was pretty much obliterated. 600 of these scumbags are in jail (presumably with no toilet paper) and another 350 are running from the FBI, Interpol, and various other agencies on outstanding warrants. CJNG was until this week a major distributor of Meth from foreign sources trafficked into the US.
And while politicians are finger-pointing during this so-called crisis, Attorney Kasim Rashid---who's running for a Congressional seat in Virginia---began receiving anti-Moslem messages from a radicalized and Red-Pilled man named Oz Dillon, of Fredericksburg. Instead of running screaming to the press and police as most politicians would do; Rashid investigated and found that Dillon also had a GoFundMe page which read:
"Our retirement savings is gone, and my wife's inheritance nearly so, due to the rising costs of my wife, and my medical care. With an income, after taxes of $3,126 a month, or around $38k a year, we are literally broke, by the 23rd of each month. This is the sole income we have. If we can reach even half of what we are asking for, we will be able to at least squeak by each month, without having to go further into credit card debt, or touching my wife's inheritance.
"We still owe on her hospitalization for a double pulmonary embolism, that nearly cost her life, and subsequent frequent checkups and medications. My insurance has doubled in cost, and covers less of our medical needs. The house needs to be made Handicap Accessible due to wife's mobility issues. She has no cartilage in her knees at all, and is a poor risk for surgery. All of this is driving us into the poor house, where soon we will be forced to sell our home, if things do not turn around. It truly pains me to ask for help, but we are at out wits end in finding a solution that does not drive us deeper into debt. God bless to all who can help us out, in whatever way possible."
Rashid realized that at the bottom of Dillon's radicalization lay a problem common to many men today: hoping to save his wife, Dillon's hands were tied by a brutalized system and forced into the humiliation of begging for alms. He donated enough to cover Dillon's expenses and encouraged his followers to do so---resulting in bills paid with a $20,000 surplus. Rashid responded as one real man to another; the Red-Pilled scales fell from Dillon's eyes, and he publicly repented of his earlier hateful statements.
“An amazing week of eye- and heart-opening enlightenment, that I used to always have before 9/11,” Dillon told the local press, “A Christian Muslim, Qasim Rashid, who I had previously opposed politically just because of the word Muslim, has opened my eyes that there are GOOD people in all walks of life. He shared our plight with his followers, who in turn donated nearly $1,000 dollars to help Terri and I get rid of this crushing debt. I owe him, and everyone in fact, a deep debt of gratitude, and pray you are all rewarded tenfold, for your generosity.”
Rashid's really a pretty solid guy for a Democrat. You can't help but admire a guy who puts politics aside to help a brother in need.
And, after the COVID panic hit Columbus, Ohio and caused the cancellation of Arnold Schwarzneggar's annual body-building tournament, John Page---the manager of the Greater Columbus Convention Center--- found himself with enough food on hand to feed an estimated 200,000 spectators, he decided to load the edibles on trucks which then went to Tennessee to feed crews and families struck by last week's massive tornado.
“When the unique circumstances affecting the Arnold Sports Festival this year came to fruition, we were proud to be able to send excess food to assist Nashville residents impacted by true devastation while we focus our efforts here on supporting the Arnold Sports Festival in its revised format.” Page told the press.

CORONAVIRUS CORNBALLS ON A ROLL
This is really shaping up to be one of those weeks. Try as one might, there's no escaping the mass-hysteria sweeping the English-speaking world right now. I'd rather hoped to go about regular business but it looks like I'll be under quarantine. This is not because I'm infected with COVID-19 or even know anybody who is. The problem out on the West Coast right now is that events are being cancelled, everything is closing, travel is being restricted, and even going to the grocery store is hit-or-miss as to what items are in stock.
Surgical masks in some places are selling on the Black Market for $100/box. They don't prevent anything, but that's beside the point. I thought if I was going to get a mask and spend that much money for it, I'd get one of those cool-looking ones like they had in World War I.
Bottled water is disappearing too: though why people imagine that water service will be disrupted, I can't figure out. At the same time, bath tissue supplies are running out. This doubly doesn't make any sense; since if the water's shut off, the sewer systems won't work either. But plenty of bottled water will help wash down the Prozac.
The panic is going to burn itself out along with the COVID-19 in about 10-20 days just like it has in China. The Media is going to fan this hysteria and aim it at President Trump (notice that the even deadlier H1N1 pandemic never got this kind of attention---oh wait Obama was president when that happened). Since there is going to be absolutely nothing else in the news until then, I might be writing on some different topics than the usual cult-busting and Deep-State exposing stuff---though I'll have that too. But otherwise, this COVID-19 subject is going to get about as much attention here as the Impeachment Hearings got. The only precaution that I'm going to take is to print out MSM articles on COVID-19 and keep them in the bathroom in case toilet paper becomes unavailable.
But if anyone would like a few non-Tin Foil Hat articles on COVID-19, here's some recommended reading:

ACADEMIC ELITES CAUGHT IN PROSTITUTION STING ARRAIGNED
Two of America's cultural elites entered 'not guilty' pleas at their hearing in Jackson, Mississippi yesterday after being caught last month in a prostitution sting. William Bynum, who was until then the President of Jackson State University is charged with Procuring Services of a Prostitute, Providing Police with a False Identity, and Possession of Marijuana. The now-former Director of Jackson State's Art Galleries, Shondra McCarthy, is charged with Procuring the Services of a Prostitute, and Marijuana Possession while Driving. The two arrived at a hotel together where they apparently had arranged for three-way sex with a prostitute, who turned out to be an undercover policewoman. The Sting Operation was set up through fake advertisements on the so-called 'Dark Web.'
Once again, America's Elite shows their true colors. These are the kinds of scumbags who flourished and were revered in America during the Deep State years. After President Trump unshackled the police, these hither-to-fore Untouchables are finally being exposed for what they really are.
Bynum was appointed JSU President in 2017 after some bitter political infighting. He had been an undistinguished lifelong Academic bureaucrat before the appointment. His predecessor, Dr. Carolyn Meyers, was physically escorted off the campus by security guards and banned from returning after an audit discovered $31 million in university funds were missing and unaccounted for. The audit was triggered after the FBI caught the school misappropriating federal research funds.
Shondra McCarthy was a JSU Alumni and a fairly prominent fashion designer in New York. She had an Art Instructor's license there. Although nobody outside of the women's clothing industry had even heard of her, she was appointed Director of JSU's Art Galleries in 2017. The same year that all of these scandals were going on, Michele Obama spoke at Commencement was awarded with an honorary degree.
Among other famous recent Alumni of JSU is Malaika Griffin who was sentenced to Life Imprisonment in 2006 for murder, which was intended to start a race war. She stated: "I am so sick of looking at white people!! I am so goddamn tired of them!! I wish I could kill those no good faggot, pedophilic, rapists, thieves & make it painful, (very)." Such are the high standards of Academic excellence which Jackson State inspires in its students. Taxpayers get ripped off for about $60 million annually to support and maintain this pest-hole which Forbes Magazine ranks 462nd of its Top 500 Colleges. Like far too many universities, Jackson State doesn't seem to be serving any actual purpose in continuing to exist.
When it comes to highly specialized education, the US produces some of the best talent in the world. When it comes to general education, however, America is one of the worst systems globally. Outmoded, overpriced, top-heavy with overpaid and superfluous bureaucrats, riddled with internal corruption and radical politics---it's past time for a change in how we manage public education.
