I like the donut shop on the right of the video with the giant donut on the roof. There are only a few left in Southern California.
There used to be a couple of dozen giant donut donut shops when I was a small boy. They were very appealing to an illiterate four year old. I’d demand that my long-suffering mother take me to the giant donut donut shop.
A lot of Los Angeles commercial architecture used to look like that. If you wanted to eat duck for dinner, there was a good chance that the restaurant specializing in duck would be shaped like a giant duck.
Other restaurants were shaped like inedible objects, such as the movie stars’ favorite restaurant, The Brown Derby, which looked like a giant hat.
Let me know what you think about what’s going on in the comments.
I lived through the Rodney King riots. Was a student at USC and they shut down the school and asked everyone to head to Doheny Library where they shut the big iron doors for the evening. I drove home to the west side with fires blazing everywhere.
Helicopter gun ships - Apaches - circled my graduation several days later. The city was in ruins. It was orchestrated by the radicals who always burn down the most impoverished areas and then blame it on racism. George Floyd was the same way and I told friends it would end the same way and they called me racist. It didn't help that Trump didn't respond effectively.
Not this time. Not this year. This time, justice will be done.
The obvious: this is existential.
Vile people have pushed and propagandized this toxic minoritarian ideology. Essentially that a nation's normal, productive majority are serfs. Not entitled to govern themselves, to assert their norms as public norms, not entitled to maintain the nation for their benefit and turn it over to their children. Rather serfs who exist to provide goodies for others to enjoy and can not say "no". It is the ideology of the rapist, the parasite.
We need to end the "nice guy" equivocating and confusion and shine the bright shining light of clarity upon this truth. America is not "a nation of immigrants". It is a "nation of Americans" and properly belongs to the Americans who built it. Governed and ordered as we desire, maintained as we wish and passed on to our children. America belongs and must be governed for "ourselves and our posterity".
People who do not get that need to be given the bum's rush.
