Part I: Lessons Learned and Enhanced from George Floyd
Being a social misfit, I have not watched TV at home since, in the second term of George W. Bush, over the air TV signals converted from analog to digital. My home TV plays only DVDs and old video tapes that I still possess.
I may be the only human being in the world who never saw the forcible arrest of physically resisting arrest George Floyd – as presented on TV in whole or even in part. I don’t read news publications, so even still photographs are not part of my MEMORY.
My memory of the event comes exclusively from putatively Conservative Talk Radio.
The event occurred on March 24, 2020 during the last months of Rush Limbaugh’s life when he was fighting to avoid dying from lung cancer. He succumbed on February 17, 2021.
I cannot remember hearing Limbaugh’s program during the chaos that began on May 25th or May 26th in 2020. I have no memory of anything he might have said regarding the event or the months of BLM-led rioting that killed at least 30 eternally nameless common citizens and destroyed billions of dollars of private and public property.
What I do remember from Radio was an endless procession of inferior far less honest and rational conservative voices (both hosts and talking head guests) LECTURING that it was just about the most morally repugnant, inexcusable sight they could ever REMEMBER seeing.
[To this day, I do not have a clue how long it took to handcuff him before he could be arrested.]
Part II: Lessons Originally Learned from the Forcible Arrest of the Forcibly Resisting Arrest Rodney King, March 4, 1991 and Onward
I watched lots of TV, especially TV news, at home in 1991, and for several years both before and thereafter.
I had started reading the New York Times daily (i.e., the prestigious newspaper of record) when I was ten years old in the 5th grade at PS 93, Manhattan. For 13 cents a week, we received a daily copy. For years, I only read the sports pages which were almost as good as the New York Post which was the most left-wing newspaper in New York City back then – read daily by my mother. My mother was a liberal until she passed in 1998. I used to take the Times home from school for others to read, but did not focus on regular news until junior high school from 1957 to 1959 and forever after until some months after September 11, 2001.
[I stopped reading this dominant newspaper because of two reasons, both having to do with 9/11. I never saw the ‘jumpers’ on TV or in the newspapers. I could easily notice that the ‘news’ industry conspired to forestall the righteous anger that these pictures of the massacre would engender in any normal American toward the entire Islamic Jihadist Terrorist movement. Also, it seemed that every day there was a new demoralizing PITY story about one of the thousands of victims. After a while, before I allowed my righteous anger to be complete dissipated with this conniving New York Times policy, I stopped reading the newspaper almost entirely. The exceptions were the Saturday and Sunday Business Sections, since the Wall Street Journal did not publish on the weekends in those days.]
When I say that I read the Times in the 1980s and 1990s every day, I really mean it. I read it cover to cover, word for word, every day – including Saturdays and Holidays. I had no social life. The de-emphasized non-left-wing real news could be found in the Holiday and Saturday editions – even if it had occurred much earlier in the week. Some Saturdays included what they fraudulently called ‘Editing Errors’ when they were forced to correct, in part, their ever-growing Left-Wing Misinformation and Disinformation.
[If you love Philosophy as I do, you may be amazed to discover that on the weekend when the original Ayatollah Khomeini died, the previously prepared Obituary, published twice, informed me (in the upper right quadrant of the full page) that he had been the most brilliant modern Islamic Plato scholar in his university days and beyond. By then I had begun to fear Plato’s malicious effect on individual Liberty and Civilization everywhere.]
Within 24 hours of the March 3, 1991 arrest of Rodney King and, it seems, eternally thereafter, I could not watch a ‘news’ program, not just CNN but also including six local New York Stations and others without watching the identical pictures in the background while the news reader pretended to do the news. In those days, some local stations ran up to two hours of ‘News’ before the network news half-hours began. News was an inexpensive profit-center.
The whole world, including me, watched Rodney King being beaten endlessly with a police baton for the entire length of the daily repeated story, minute after minute after minute. It did not require verbal explanation or imagination to visualize a black slave being endlessly beaten by a slave driver from the pre-Civil War era.
The basic step-by-step story occurred in the following chronology:
I don’t recall how many days went by before we were told the riot had ended. I most assuredly remember watching Rodney King on May 1, two days after the beginning, as he spoke to the press showing far more of a normal human being’s conscience than all the Social Justice Idealists and Careerists News Phonies who created the riot. With a tear-filled face, gasping for air, and as confused as anyone who could also learn subsequently ‘the Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth’ (if they spent years pursuing the hidden facts), he innocently said: “Can’t we just all get along?”
I had an awful lot to learn once the EVIL SCUMBAG PRESS stopped controlling my access to information with their eternal misinformation and disinformation.
My subsequently learned understanding of ‘the Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth” took several years to acquire. To begin with, Rodney King was a paroled felon on the day of his arrest. That meant that, if he were arrested, he would return directly to prison for parole violation. He was, like ten times as many of today’s f’ed up young Americans as then, who are chronic illegal drug users. That day he was especially impaired on one or more illegal drugs such as Angel Dust and/or cocaine. His highway driving was especially dangerously erratic and so he was pulled over by police who were joined by several police cruisers.
Unbeknownst to the police, a private citizen, with a video tape camera and a great view of the entire episode, started taping it from a distance. The video tape ran for quite some minutes. The complete video tape showed that several officers initially tried to collectively get the handcuffs on King – but he was unnaturally strong and muscular from years of weight-lifting in prior incarcerations as well as fanatically hopped up on the drugs that day so as to resist. He literally rose to his feet and shook all the officers off him.
The next step was to have one officer, using a police baton, beat him around the arms and legs. Eventually, not right away, he stood up passively, and extended his two arms to be handcuffed. (He knew the ‘drill’ from prior arrests.)
The Evil Scumbag Press created the false public narrative as follows. First a local TV station purchased the complete video tape for what I believe I remember was all of $200. They copyrighted it and then began the advertising and marketing campaign. They created an 11-second ‘loop’ of the ugliest pictures of the use of the baton played over and over and over again. (A few early shots of other police cars called to the scene were sometimes also rented out for copyright use across the country – maybe even the whole world.
It was that 11-second loop that I and everyone else saw for hundreds maybe even thousands of times.
(If you got to watch the Jumpers on 9/11, you would never forget. Watching that misleading 11-second loop endlessly planted an equivalent optimal EVIL police-image memory in almost everyone.)
[Back in August 19-21 of 1991 from the pre-trial universal repetition of broadcast of the 11-second loop from March 4th for up to 5½ months, the world’s greatest Racial Racketeer, apparently personally trained by the most EVIL HARD LEFT American Lawyer–Political Activist in my lifetime – created via a Massive Racial Hoax, the only Pogrom in American History, in Crown Heights Brooklyn where the Lubavitcher Hasidic Jewish Leadership were headquartered and targeted. The following year, the George H. W. Bush administration had been adequately pressured to secure a Federal Civil Rights (Double Jeopardy) indictment about three months after the state court exoneration.]
The last chronological known fact to the initial story was, on May 3rd (2 days after Rodney King’s “Can’t we all just get along?” public declaration, the National Guard was finally called up. Unfortunately they ignored (as did the police) the common citizens who were assaulted and killed by rioters for days. The initial death count was 58 with all but three being citizen victims of rioters. The National Guard went to protect the social oligarchs. The Los Angeles Times building was completely and perfectly protected.
Those three non-citizen victims could also be described as, like Ashli Babbitt on January 6th, killed by police. Their story is tragically innocent in a different manner. Every day, from the time the National Guard was called, I read in the NY Times the same strange anecdotal wording in one or more non-prominent locations of lengthy stories.
Their story is that, while common people are being assaulted and killed, these three attempted to enter the well-protected residential area of the mega-millionaire Entertainment Industry Oligarchy. In a probably true, albeit never challenged by ‘Speaking Truth to Power’ judgment of local or state law enforcement, their car, with three people inside, was spotted with the plausible assumption that they were there trying to steal one or two expensive luxury or sports cars.
The driver was described daily in the NY Times as ‘Juanita Pettaway age 38’ accompanied by two young equally black males who could drive one or two stolen cars away if they ‘scored.’ Once police spotted them, a high-speed police chase ensued and continued for several miles until a National Guard roadblock was encountered. In trying to evade the roadblock, the driver ‘Juanita Pettaway age 38’ lost control of the vehicle which rolled over and caught fire. The three of them burned to death.
The most bizarre ending to that part of the story was that many months later, in a well-hidden news story, the Official Government Death Count was reduced from 58 to 55. [It reminded me of the protagonist’s job in the Ministry of Truth in Eric Blair’s (i.e., George Orwell’s) “1984.” His job was to retroactively change the official records when the ‘history’ had been altered by the Ruling Class.
There is one last overwhelming Fraud in the whole story that few ever encountered – and it too was accidentally revealed in a Sunday New York Times – probably not too long before the state trial which exonerated the two innocent police officers.
The inside of the first section of the Sunday New York Times was lousy with full-page or near full-page retail advertisements – big profit-center! Occasionally those near full-page ads would leave one column on the side or a few inches on the top for a normal sized news story. I, over the years, have read a number of very revealing such stories, but none of these ever written by the staff. Occasionally an editor, quite innocently no doubt, would stick a wire service story in that location. On one such Sunday, I read a wire service (probably AP) story about an interview that the state prosecutors held with the one or more FBI Experts and Authorities who wrote the Protocols for how police should forcibly arrest a suspect who was forcibly resisting arrest. The prosecutors played the entire video tape they had subpoenaed of the arrest of Rodney King. This was to prepare the FBI Experts and Authorities to testify for the prosecution. They watched it carefully and judged the Actual arrest of Rodney King to have been performed perfectly. The fact that they were, at trial, subpoenaed to testify for the Defense explains the acquittal.
As to the subsequent (Double Jeopardy) Federal Civil Rights conviction, I remain both ignorant of how it could Constitutionally happen and, long since, have become adult enough to not trust what Big Government and the Evil Scumbug Press and Prestige Universities like HARVARD claims to be both True and Important.
Conclusion – My 24/7 TV News Fantasy
Islamic terrorism was invented by the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem (Mohammad Amin al-Husayni), a close personal friend of the real Adolf Hitler in the 1930s and WWII years.
He did a great job making HEBRON (where the Patriarch Abraham was buried) JUDENREIN (i.e., Jew Free) with his pogrom in 1932. He started the war against Jews after WWII. Today’s Sunni Muslim Brotherhood is everywhere except Russia and a few Arab countries such as Egypt where they (1) failed to assassinate Nassar and were banned, (2) were ‘Democratically’ restored by Anwar Sadat who they successfully assassinated in the 1980s, (3) briefly stole the Egyptian government thanks to the Great Obama’s ‘ARAB SPRING’ a decade ago before the present government took the country back.
The 1979 Khomeni Iranian Coup d’Etat (or putsch in German), though SHIA, often aligns itself – for the purpose of mass murder atrocities – with the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood. HAMAS is only one of their cooperative ventures in Mass Murder Capital War Crime Terrorism.
[In the last two centuries of the Abassid Caliphate (751-1258), a group of Assassins was invented spread over 2-3 dozen secure castles in the mountains from Iran to the Mediterranean. The word ASSASSIN derives from this group (the Cult of Ismail) which westerners call the Hashhasheen. A variety of hallucinogenic drugs (including Hashish) given to recruits to put them temporarily to sleep, after which a sexually delightful Paradise was experienced. This was to create the belief in the recruits that, should these heroic warriors for Islam die in their mission, the leaders guaranteed entrance to Paradise for their souls for all eternity. (The leaders never personally went on a dangerous mission.)
[In 1258, when the Mongols came, they destroyed the Abassid Caliphate killing 800,000 in its capital Baghdad and also destroyed every secure castle the Assassins had run. Suicide assassins disappeared in the Islamic World from 1258 until 721 years later, the mad Ruhollah Khomeini brought it back. (The marine barracks in Lebanon in the 1980s was western civilization’s first such encounter.)
[This wide-spread practice of suicide mass murder has been incorporated into Sunni Muslim Brotherhood Jihadist Social Justice Warrior Practice. Today the crooked leader of Turkey (a NATO government) who regularly steals elections (the monster ERDOGAN) is not ever recognized as the Muslim Brotherhood hero that he is. He has secretly achieved a great such goal in the Caucasus by getting a formerly civilized government of Shia Azerbaijani Turks to, as I write this, exterminate 100,000+ Christian Armenians stuck in their jurisdiction since the breakup of the Soviet Union.
[All Islamic Mass Murders derive from one or both groups – the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood and the Shia Iranian Revolutionary Guards.]
Inside almost every Western Civilization Big Government Bureaucracy, and widely in Media Institutions and Prestigious Universities like HARVARD, they brazenly show themselves for what they are. For every one ‘leader,’ there are thousands of useful idiot followers. (President Donald Trump had both the Iranian Revolutionary Guard and the Muslim Brotherhood on the Terrorist list. Of course, they and their temporary political allies among all the Pathological Left-Wing Tribes hate and fear him.)
My 24/7 TV NEWS FANTASY is quite simple. Every half-hour, I would devote five minutes not to the regular Fake News, but to the heroic self-gratifying uploaded pictures of the hundreds of hours of HAMAS and Islamic Jihadist Capital War Crimes in Israel this week for as many years as it would take for Harvard and every other institution to treat every ‘student’ and ‘organization’ supporting HAMAS War Crime Atrocities as the moral equivalent of the WAFFEN SS that Hitler used to exterminate millions of Jews across Europe. (This strategy needs Modification in Trudeau’s Canada – but others could solve that conundrum.)
