thewashingtonstandard--2020-05-08--What Will Schools Look Like After COVID? Prison Camps

If you ’ ve been wondering what it will look like when the kids go back to school , one school in Quebec has released their new guidelines and they ’ re shocking .
Apparently , schools are going to look a lot like prison camps .
This is another example of how things will not just “ go back to normal.
” Everything is changing , including life for our children .
Here are the guidelines one school has laid out .
Schools in Quebec , Canada are reopening on May 19th and one school released its guidelines .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the Facebook page , Kate for Education .
The school was not named for the privacy of the parent .
( All emphasis is mine . )
Now if you ’ re saying to yourself , “ This is in Canada .
There ’ s no way this nonsense will happen here in America , ” I urge you to remember that the lockdown restrictions in Canada are far less stringent than those in the United States .
Look around at the ridiculous rules we already have like stores choosing what items @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Then tell me “ It can ’ t happen here.
” Here are those reopening guidelines .
Lest it sound as though this is a total outlier , here is the guidance from another school – it ’ s similar but not quite as harsh .
And here are documents from the Minister of Education outlining the guidelines to be followed by the schools .
And did you notice there are quite a few inconsistencies ?
Kids can ’ t take anything back and forth from school .
You know , except for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ water , their PPE , and some books to read .
That stuff doesn ’ t count as gong back and forth and clearly , is germ-free .
This sounds more like a prison for dangerous offenders than a nurturing place for children to learn and grow .
And to think , Harvard is worried that homeschool kids are isolated and poorly socialized .
It ’ s important to note that returning is not mandatory for the rest of this school year .
Teachers will still be available for online learning if parents @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I simply can not fathom treating children in this way .
If a home school parent had similar rules for their children , Family Services would immediately be at their door for the radical mistreatment of their offspring .
The fact that the government can not just allow but order the public school system to abide by guidelines is utter madness .
This is not right and it is not healthy , mentally , physically , or psychologically .
This setting seems like it would be psychologically damaging .
Imagine the culture of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you drum into a child the constant worry that others might be infectious , how do you expect that child to learn to communicate with others , make friends , and enjoy learning ?
This is how you make children afraid of human contact .
Active children will be miserable .
If you think the number of diagnoses for ADHD and similar behavioral issues is high now , just wait until energetic 7-year-olds are forced to sit in the same chair all day and then walk in a properly distanced around a playground @ @ @ @ @ @ @ swings and slides .
If their work isn ’ t even graded or evaluated , what could possibly be the point of returning to school ?
If you want a population of worker bees who will quietly submit to authority and distance themselves completely from the influence of others , this is how you produce that population .
You drum into them that they can ’ t even choose when to go to the bathroom , that they can ’ t congregate with others , and that they must remain seated with their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ times .
I wonder if the monitoring of the bathroom will be similar to what was discussed in this article or if somebody will actually go with them .
And if so , isn ’ t an adult being alone in the bathroom with a child pretty inappropriate ?
You teach them that every single moment is structured and supervised .
You teach them to walk only in orderly formation – no skipping , no running , no playing .
And just think , all this time public school parents were worried about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” with others .
Would you ever allow your child to be subjected to these conditions ?
We don ’ t know exactly what the conditions will be like when kids return to school in the United States , but it wouldn ’ t be a stretch of the imagination to expect something similar to this , particularly in harder-hit regions of the country .
I wouldn ’ t subject my kids to this horrible setting for any reason .
I ’ ve always tried to be open-minded regarding the homeschooling vs. public @ @ @ @ @ @ @ graduated from a public high school and the other was homeschooled .
But I urge any parent who is able to stay home not to send their children back to school if it ’ s going to be more like a prison camp .
Continue if you can at all to educate them at home and let them play outside , paint beautiful pictures , and do science projects .
Let them be children , for crying out loud .

If you’ve been wondering what it will look like when the kids go back to school, one school in Quebec has released their new guidelines and they’re shocking.
Apparently, schools are going to look a lot like prison camps.
This is another example of how things will not just “go back to normal.” Everything is changing, including life for our children.
Here are the guidelines one school has laid out.
Schools in Quebec, Canada are reopening on May 19th and one school released its guidelines. This list was submitted by a parent to the Facebook page, Kate for Education. The school was not named for the privacy of the parent. (All emphasis is mine.)
Now if you’re saying to yourself, “This is in Canada. There’s no way this nonsense will happen here in America,” I urge you to remember that the lockdown restrictions in Canada are far less stringent than those in the United States. Look around at the ridiculous rules we already have like stores choosing what items are essential for us to buy. Then tell me “It can’t happen here.”
Here are those reopening guidelines.
To minimize movement, we forecast assigning students to classes nearest the Berlin Street entrance (on all 3 floors if needed only);
Once assigned to a class, students will spend their entire day (including lunchtime) in their assigned seats ;
; Students must expect to be regrouped based on the number of students returning;
Students must not expect to return to their regular class with their classmates;
Your child may not be with the same teachers as before as several members of our staff will not be returning to school;
Teachers not returning to school will continue working and keeping close contact with students remotely from home as recommended by the government;
Activities completed while in school will not be evaluated or graded ;
; No physical materials will be transported back and forth between home & school;
Students must include a mini garbage and recycling bag with their lunch in order to collect their personal garbage and dispose of it at home;
All students must bring in their personal, labeled, and filled water bottle as water fountains won’t be available;
Sharing of ALL items (pencils, pens, sharpeners, wax crayons, rulers, toys) is not permitted;
When weather permits, recess breaks will be held outdoors and will entail of walking outside safely distanced from one another in a prearranged pattern ;
; Gatherings (groups of students together) will not be permitted;
Limited travel throughout the school by all during the day;
Bathroom visits will be monitored/escorted so that proper disinfection by our caretakers can follow before another student uses the facilities;
so that proper disinfection by our caretakers can follow before another student uses the facilities; As per government recommendations, masks and gloves will not be provided ;
; Students are certainly welcomed to bring these items from home . They are also invited to carry their own personal disinfecting wipes with them if they wish;
. They are also with them if they wish; Lockers will no longer be used. Students will place their spring/summer jackets behind the chair they will be using & their school bags under their assigned desks;
There will be no cafeteria service or Home & School pizza & frozen yogurt days.
There will be no physical activity taking place in the gym, no art classes (although art and craft projects can be promoted as home suggestions), no library periods, and no drama classes ;
; No fundraisers or after school activities will take place;
Parent volunteers will not be permitted in school;
We recommend your child brings a book or two of interest from home to read;
Students with fever or flu-like symptoms will be returned home.
Lest it sound as though this is a total outlier, here is the guidance from another school – it’s similar but not quite as harsh. And here are documents from the Minister of Education outlining the guidelines to be followed by the schools.
And did you notice there are quite a few inconsistencies? Kids can’t take anything back and forth from school. You know, except for their lunches, their garbage, their water, their PPE, and some books to read. That stuff doesn’t count as gong back and forth and clearly, is germ-free.
This sounds more like a prison for dangerous offenders than a nurturing place for children to learn and grow. And to think, Harvard is worried that homeschool kids are isolated and poorly socialized.
It’s important to note that returning is not mandatory for the rest of this school year. Teachers will still be available for online learning if parents wish to keep their children home.
I simply cannot fathom treating children in this way. If a home school parent had similar rules for their children, Family Services would immediately be at their door for the radical mistreatment of their offspring. The fact that the government can not just allow but order the public school system to abide by guidelines is utter madness. This is not right and it is not healthy, mentally, physically, or psychologically.
This setting seems like it would be psychologically damaging.
Imagine the culture of fear this creates for children. When you drum into a child the constant worry that others might be infectious, how do you expect that child to learn to communicate with others, make friends, and enjoy learning? This is how you make children afraid of human contact.
Active children will be miserable. If you think the number of diagnoses for ADHD and similar behavioral issues is high now, just wait until energetic 7-year-olds are forced to sit in the same chair all day and then walk in a properly distanced around a playground, past all the fun stuff like swings and slides.
If their work isn’t even graded or evaluated, what could possibly be the point of returning to school?
I guess there’s one point.
If you want a population of worker bees who will quietly submit to authority and distance themselves completely from the influence of others, this is how you produce that population. You drum into them that they can’t even choose when to go to the bathroom, that they can’t congregate with others, and that they must remain seated with their hands strictly kept to themselves at all times.
I wonder if the monitoring of the bathroom will be similar to what was discussed in this article or if somebody will actually go with them. And if so, isn’t an adult being alone in the bathroom with a child pretty inappropriate?
You teach them that every single moment is structured and supervised. You teach them to walk only in orderly formation – no skipping, no running, no playing.
And just think, all this time public school parents were worried about homeschooled kids not being properly “socialized” with others.
Would you ever allow your child to be subjected to these conditions?
We don’t know exactly what the conditions will be like when kids return to school in the United States, but it wouldn’t be a stretch of the imagination to expect something similar to this, particularly in harder-hit regions of the country.
I wouldn’t subject my kids to this horrible setting for any reason. I’ve always tried to be open-minded regarding the homeschooling vs. public schooling debate – one of my kids graduated from a public high school and the other was homeschooled. But I urge any parent who is able to stay home not to send their children back to school if it’s going to be more like a prison camp. Continue if you can at all to educate them at home and let them play outside, paint beautiful pictures, and do science projects.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-05-08--Trump Fast-Tracking Forced Vaccinations

Trump Fast-Tracking Forced Vaccinations

Donald Trump is , once again , showing his true colors : He is in the process of fast-tracking forced vaccinations for the coronavirus .
The narrative that corona poses a serious health risk to the vast majority of people under the age of 80 who have a normal , healthy immune system is a bald-faced lie .
As a preacher , I ’ ll go so far as to say that it ’ s a lie from the pits of Hell .
Many people in the medical and research industries are now coming forward with documentation to prove that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a total and absolute fraud , and the only people who don ’ t see it are people who don ’ t want to see it—or people who have a vested interest in not seeing it .
Here is University of Pittsburgh Medical Center ( UPMC ) Chair of Emergency Medicine , Dr. Donald Yealy : A UPMC doctor on Thursday made a case the death rate for people infected with the new coronavirus may be as low as 0.25 % — far lower than the mortality rates of 2-4 % or @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the pandemic .
Dr. Donald Yealy based it partly on studies of levels of coronavirus antibodies detected in people in New York and California , and partly on COVID-19 deaths in the Pittsburgh region .
The studies found that 5-20 % of people had been exposed to the coronavirus , with many noticing only mild illness or none at all , he said .
“ We ’ ve learned that way more people , far , far more people have actually been exposed to the infection without any knowledge of it .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ lower , ” said Yealy , who is UPMC ’ s chair of emergency medicine .
“ Many people just didn ’ t feel sick at all and recovered without difficulty.
” Yealy said only 2 % of the UPMC system ’ s 5,500 beds are occupied by COVID-19 patients and the number of new COVID-19 patients is declining .
He cited that figure in explaining UPMC ’ s plans to quickly increase its volume of the non-emergency surgeries that were largely banned to conserve beds and supplies for COVID-19 patients .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ volume of COVID-19 patients falls short of worst-case predictions .
When I gave Dr. Annie Bukacek the podium at Liberty Fellowship and she blew the whistle on the way the CDC was encouraging ( or even insisting ) that physicians fudge corona deaths upward on death certificates , it opened the floodgates of testimony from medical professionals .
Now , physicians , researchers and scientists all over America are exposing corona for the hoax that it is .
( The reason the rest of them are not speaking out is probably because they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and their positions could be terminated . )
For example , on April 16 , 2020 , the CDC and its propaganda lackeys in the mainstream media reported corona deaths as being 54,217 .
But when you look deeper at the CDC statistics , you find that deaths from corona on that date were actually only 11,356 ( and that ’ s including the fudged numbers ) .
The 54,000 figure that they were publishing were deaths attributed to bacterial pneumonia , influenza OR corona .
That means , of course , 4/5 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ death was corona actually died with complications of pneumonia and/or influenza , but corona was listed as the sole cause of death .
See also this report from New York City funeral directors who are exposing the Fauci fraud .
Now , on the heels of this kind of medical fraud and media manipulation , Donald Trump is fast-tracking Operation Warp Speed that will enact mandatory vaccinations .
President Donald Trump now has a new goal : Operation Warp Speed .
That ’ s a partnership with “ pharmaceutical companies and the military @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus vaccine that will be mandatory .
He ’ s stepping into Bill Gates ’ shoes .
According to a report by Bloomberg , the Trump administration is organizing a Manhattan Project-style effort to drastically cut the time needed to develop a coronavirus vaccine , with the goal of making enough doses for most Americans by year ’ s end .
Instead of eliminating the police state and tyranny , Trump is doing the opposite .
He ’ s now sided with Bill Gates and Anthony Fauci making him complicate [ sic ] @ @ @ @ @ @ @ basic human rights .
It ’ s time to call a spade a spade , and a tyrant a tyrant .
Brian from the YouTube channel High Impact Flix detailed the problems with vaccine [ sic ] and how quickly Trump pivoted to help the biggest and most corrupt pharmaceutical companies in the world .
“ I wan na ask you a question .
Are you really against vaccines ?
Are you against government-subsidized , taxpayer-funded , pharmaceutical benefiting , Bill Gates supported , vaccines ?
Now let me ask you this question @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump ?
Are you for or against Barack Obama ?
Do you suffer from cognitive dissonance ?
Are you trying to hold two mutually exclusive and diametrically opposed ideas or beliefs in your minds at the same time ?
” The mainstream media is now saying this is a good thing , Trump is doing the right thing , and their reporting of it should concern anyone who wants the freedom to decide what goes into their body .
At 2:28 in the above video , there is a clip of Trump saying @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” and get the vaccination .
“ Wait ’ til you see the name of the operation…I thought ‘ no way .
No .
It can ’ t be this blatant.
’ And if this is true , there ’ s no way people are still gon na be for Trump after this…Called Operation Warp Speed , the project will join pharmaceutical companies and with government agencies and THE MILITARY…they ’ re all in bed together , guys !
We ’ ve known this !
Now , they ’ re just putting it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ see ?
Here ’ s that thing you can do about it !
We ’ re gon na get the vaccine going !
You ’ re gon na have to have vaccine certifications !
’ ” “ Are you really still for Master Trump ?
You know people were checked out .
You guys who are for Trump now , you call people who were for Obama , the signing of the NDAA and the resigning of the Patriot Act under Obama , you said : ‘ oh that ’ s that ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ !
He ’ s acting in a despotic manner !
’ You were right .
But then Trump comes along and does the same thing…just like Obama did .
SILENCE !
…Cuz everybody that supports Trump that was against Obama…are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites and that ’ s why our country and our world is goin ’ down .
Because people are not gon na stand fast on , and hold firm to the truth !
What has the world come to ?
” This news isn ’ t going to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ have to be steadfast when it comes to our rights and our freedom .
We need to know what these people who declare themselves our rulers are planning to do to us .
Trump is pushing the elitists ’ agenda for ID2020 .
Do you still support Trump after this ?
If you need more , here is Brian ’ s video clip showing Donald Trump taking full credit for the Operation Warp Speed mandatory vaccination program .
Watch Trump boast “ I ’ m in charge ” of Operation Warp Speed .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump is authorizing the merger of Big Pharma and the U.S. military to FORCE the American people to be vaccinated for a virus that is itself a global hoax .
All of this is to please the power elite , especially billionaire globalist Bill Gates and globalist mad scientist Anthony Fauci .
Bobby Kennedy , Jr. is telling us in no uncertain terms that this forced-vaccination scheme is going to put billions of dollars into the corrupt , criminal coffers of Fauci and Gates : Bobby Kennedy Jr. was on a podcast this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about the perils of vaccinations .
In his interview at the 50:00 minute mark , Kennedy shares the following : You have the Vaccine Act of 86 .
Now you have a project that has no liability so they have no incentive to make it safe .
Not only that they don ’ t have to test it and , in fact , they have an incentive not to test it because the only way you can get sued under the Vaccine Act is if you can show that the company knew of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it on the manufacturer ’ s insert .
So there ’ s an incentive to know as little about the product as possible .
And , you can ’ t sue them , and there ’ s no market force that keeps them in check .
Because you can say that the vaccine is mandated for 78 million kids .
And , so the industry got together and manufacturers said , holy cow , now we have a product that has no liability , and that ’ s the biggest cost for drugs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , we don ’ t have to test it , that ’ s a huge cost avoided .
Number two , there ’ s no liability and that ’ s the biggest cost avoided .
Number three , there ’ s no marketing or advertising costs , because it ’ s mandated .
So it ’ s just like printing money .
If you can get a vaccine on the CDC ’ s recommended schedule it averages about a billion dollars annually in pure profits for your company .
When I was a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fully compliant and today ’ s kids get 72 vaccines .
At the 59:00 minute mark , Kennedy shares the money and connections between Dr. Fauci and the Gates Foundation : Tony Fauci has many , many vaccine patents… and there ’ s one vaccine patent that he has that is a way of packaging a coronavirus with some other vaccine … in a protein sheet… and then delivering it through a vaccine… he somehow ended up owning that patent… Tony Fauci will be able to cash in … .
So Fauci ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ for that vaccine [ related to the coronavirus ] .
If professing Christians and conservatives continue to stand by Donald Trump and accept his plan of forced vaccinations , it will be the death of the Bill of Rights and freedom in America .
And that is no exaggeration .
This plan will doubtless include medical tracking ( read : total government surveillance over our lives , including every person we contact and every place we go ) and medical certificates ( read : government papers or skin implantations or even readable components @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a condition of working or traveling and perhaps even buying and selling .
While brainwashed Scofield dispensationalists were worshipping the antichrist State of Israel and standing around waiting for a Christian Zionist pre-tribulation “ rapture ” fairytale , America was plunging into a true tyrannical tribulation with the hellish trinity of Bill Gates , Anthony Fauci and Donald Trump leading the charge—and Christians didn ’ t even seem to notice .
We are not talking about politics .
We are talking about our children ’ s future .
We are talking about our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ travel , our right to live free , our right to freely worship .
We are talking about truth and justice .
We are talking about our Constitution and Bill of Rights .
We are talking about our very existence .
You can cuss me all you want .
But I ’ m not the one trying to enslave you .
I ’ m not the one trying to give you the “ mark of the beast.
” I ’ m not the one trying to take away your right to work and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ m not the one trying to force you and your children to be injected with who knows what kinds of chemicals .
But Bill Gates and Tony Fauci are doing exactly that , and they are doing it with Trump ’ s help .
In fact , they can not do it without him .
It ’ s time to stop getting mad at the messenger who ’ s telling you the truth and start getting mad at these politicians in both parties and the mad scientists in the Big Pharma/medical industrial complex @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dictators at the expense of our lives and liberties .
If Christians don ’ t stand up NOW against Trump ’ s forced vaccination plan , they will have no one to blame but themselves for the collapse of freedom—including the freedom of worship—in this country .
P.S .
Here is a brief video of my remarks regarding forced vaccinations .
The first clip was delivered on March 10 , 2019 .
The second clip was delivered last Sunday , May 3 , 2020 .

CHRISTIANS, WAKE UP!
We are not talking about politics. We are talking about our children’s future. We are talking about our right to work, our right to travel, our right to live free, our right to freely worship. We are talking about truth and justice. We are talking about our Constitution and Bill of Rights. We are talking about our very existence.
You can cuss me all you want. But I’m not the one trying to enslave you. I’m not the one trying to give you the “mark of the beast.” I’m not the one trying to take away your right to work and travel without government permission. I’m not the one trying to force you and your children to be injected with who knows what kinds of chemicals. But Bill Gates and Tony Fauci are doing exactly that, and they are doing it with Trump’s help. In fact, they cannot do it without him.
It’s time to stop getting mad at the messenger who’s telling you the truth and start getting mad at these politicians in both parties and the mad scientists in the Big Pharma/medical industrial complex who are trying to become despots and dictators at the expense of our lives and liberties.
If Christians don’t stand up NOW against Trump’s forced vaccination plan, they will have no one to blame but themselves for the collapse of freedom—including the freedom of worship—in this country.
P.S. Here is a brief video of my remarks regarding forced vaccinations. The first clip was delivered on March 10, 2019. The second clip was delivered last Sunday, May 3, 2020.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-05-08--The COVID-19 Power Grabbers Are Cooking The Books & Burning The People

In my previous article , Make America Honest Again !
I explained how our country needs to become honest and demand honesty from our government , and the government employees .
Our thought processes have been polluted for a long time .
Many people have been under the false impression that our government needs to lie and deceive , so they can protect us .
As Christians , we should know that evil does not produce good .
Yes , God can make good come from evil , but that is God .
We can not justify evil , just @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s mess .
If Americans think they can allow their government to be evil just because God can bring good from evil , they need to get their Bibles out and start thinking .
When I say , the COVID-19 Power Grabbers are Cooking the Books , I am referring to the admission that the death numbers , claimed from COVID-19 , are in reality deaths of people who died with COVID-19 , not from COVID-19 .
What that tells you is , counting someone with stage-4 lung cancer as a COVID-19 death @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , shows dishonesty in the system .
We need to stop the dishonesty .
Dishonest numbers are worse than no numbers .
You are being manipulated if you continue to listen to the fake numbers .
They desensitize you from the truth .
I turn the radio off every time the COVID-19 briefing comes on .
I know there are many people who like President Trump .
I realize there are many people that hate President Trump .
However , we are all going to suffer from the COVID-19 economic destruction .
Even @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their suffering will affect my life .
We all have a duty to help each other .
A major obstacle is going to be in helping the deceived .
If they remain deceived they are hurting themselves .
It is difficult to fix damage if you do not stop causing the damage .
The fake numbers are causing damage .
Our only solution for now is to believe no one .
Yes , people like Doctor Jensen are likely honest .
However , I think his point of exposing the rigging of death @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the need for skepticism .
Click here , if you want to read my previous articles on that subject .
They do not deliberately make the COVID-19 death numbers high without it serving a purpose .
They know people would not accept the lockdown without high death numbers .
Even with the phony numbers people are not accepting the lockdown .
We should not accept the lockdown .
Deception is deception , I do not care if a Republican did it or a Democrat did it .
The damage is the same .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a dangerous government .
Anyone who claims we should believe deception out of necessity is a fool .
That will just make things worse .
You can believe your parachute will open , but if the person that packed the parachute is deceiving you , you will die .
You do not believe them just because they had the authority to pack parachutes .
You take the responsibility to protect yourself , and make sure it was done right .
That is the first thing we need to do to start recovering @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
We need take the responsibility to reject deception and demand honesty .
Without this we will fail .
Without this we will suffer , and we will deserve to .
America has been allowing dishonesty for too long .
We are paying the price for it now .
If we allow this to continue , we will get what we deserve .
If you let them destroy your business based on deception , you destroyed your business .
They may have started the deception , , allowed it to continue .
If @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s business based on deception , you destroyed your employer ’ s business .
They may have started the deception , , allowed it to continue .
Deception is very damaging .
America has been allowing it for so long people no longer see the harm in it .
Even now , many people do not care that the death numbers , claimed from COVID-19 , are in reality deaths of people who died with COVID-19 .
Ask yourself , how many things in your life would cause problems if they were based @ @ @ @ @ @ @ faulty data in your checking account you would have problems .
The government is no different .
It is just harder to connect the damage .
Our government locked down the country based on fraudulent numbers .
The death numbers , claimed from COVID-19 , are in reality deaths of people who died with COVID-19 , not from COVID-19 .
The government violated people ’ s civil rights based on a lie .
The government put the country in debt an additional 2.2 trillion dollars using fraudulent numbers .
One thing is for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ us what they are going to make us do before they stop the lockdown .
Those people need to be removed from office and put in jail .
The disruption in the food supply is going to cause suffering .

The government violated people’s civil rights based on a lie. The government put the country in debt an additional 2.2 trillion dollars using fraudulent numbers.
One thing is for certain, no one should be telling us what they are going to make us do before they stop the lockdown. Those people need to be removed from office and put in jail. The disruption in the food supply is going to cause suffering. The sooner we bring back honesty to our public policy the sooner we can start fixing the problems.
You need to be part of this. Make America Honest again.

52% Of Small Businesses “Expect To Be Out Of Business Within Six Months” According To Shocking New Survey
Anyone that was hoping for a “quick recovery” for the U.S. economy can forget about that right now. Yes, many states are attempting to “reopen”, but in most cases, it will be a multi-stage process that takes many months to complete. Meanwhile, fear of COVID-19 is going to keep many Americans from conducting business as usual even after all of the restrictions have been finally lifted. Even now, many of the stores, restaurants and movie theaters that have reopened are seeing very, very few customers. Unfortunately, millions of small businesses are not going to be able to survive in such a depressed economic environment for very long.
In America today, the rules of the game are slanted very heavily in favor of huge corporations and are slanted very heavily against small businesses.
It has been this way for years, but millions of small business owners just kept soldiering on because they wanted to work for themselves and not some corporate behemoth.
But for most small businesses things have never been easy. For most of them, it is usually such a struggle to try to eke out a very meager profit at the end of the month after covering expenses and payroll. But now COVID-19 has come along, and many small businesses haven’t had any revenue for weeks.
The good news is that the lockdowns are starting to end, but the bad news is that many small business owners are facing a “new normal” in which their monthly revenues will be down by 30, 40 or 50 percent (or more). All of a sudden many small businesses that were once barely profitable have been transformed into businesses that are bleeding a lot of cash each month, and many of them simply are not going to make it.
It was always obvious that this pandemic would kill a lot of those businesses, but the true scope of the problem wasn’t apparent until now. According to Bloomberg, a survey that was just conducted found that 52 percent of U.S. small business owners “expect to be out of business within six months”…
COVID-19 could shutter most American small businesses. That’s according to a new survey from the Society for Human Resource Management which found that 52% expect to be out of business within six months. The survey of 375 firms was conducted between April 15-21 and doesn’t account for improved business conditions as some U.S. states reopen this month.
Yes, the big corporate giants dominate our society today, but there are still lots and lots of small businesses out there.
Ultimately, we are talking about millions upon millions of businesses that are about to be destroyed…
“SHRM has tracked Covid-19’s impact on work, workers, and the workplace for months,” said SHRM Chief Executive Officer Johnny C. Taylor, Jr., “but these might be the most alarming findings to date. Small business is truly the backbone of our economy. So, when half say they’re worried about being wiped out, let’s remember: We’re talking about roughly 14 million businesses.”
Around the country, governors can choose to end the lockdowns, but they can’t order customers to go out and spend money.
And considering the fact that more than 30 million Americans have lost their jobs over the last six weeks, a lot of them don’t have money to spend anyway.
But even if everyone was still working, there is a large segment of the population that will simply be afraid to venture into public places as long as this pandemic is going on.
If you doubt this, just consider what we are witnessing in Texas. Reuters sent a reporter to one of the most popular malls in Austin, and what that reporter discovered is quite sobering…
A dozen or so people were strolling about the sprawling open-air shopping center Monday afternoon, with three seated on the patio of a Tex-Mex restaurant. Only one shopper wore a mask, and the loudest noises were from songbirds perched in the live oak trees along the deserted pedestrian thoroughfares. “I’ve seen one customer today – they didn’t buy anything,” said Taylor Jund, who was keeping watch over an empty Chaser clothing store. “There’s absolutely no one coming around here.”
If even 20 percent of customers stay away for the foreseeable future, that is going to be enough to kill millions of small businesses.
So the truth is that we are facing a major national crisis.
A while back, Congress passed a bill that was supposed to help small businesses survive the lockdowns, but as I mentioned in a previous article it looks like that program has been a massive failure…
According to the CNBC/SurveyMonkey Small Business Survey released Monday, which surveyed 2,200 small business owners across America, while the $660 billion Paycheck Protection Program was instituted to give them a lifeline through the coronavirus and economic shutdown, only 13% of the 45% who applied for the PPP were approved.
We really are caught in a downward spiral now. We desperately need to get Americans back to work so that they can start earning paychecks again, but with so few customers right now, businesses will continue to lay off even more workers in the weeks and months ahead.
Meanwhile, the cost of living is actually going up. Thanks to the ongoing meat shortages, fresh meat prices are escalating quite rapidly…
Fresh meat prices escalated 8.1% in stores, compared to the same period last year, according to Nielsen data for the week ending April 25. Experts expect prices to skyrocket in the coming weeks, as meat processing plants across the U.S. are forced to close due to the coronavirus pandemic. Pork and beef prices could increase by as much as 20% compared to 2019, according to a new report from CoBank, a cooperative bank that is part of the Farm Credit System.
The economic collapse that so many have been warning about is here, and it is going to continue whether there are lockdowns or not.
Yes, there will be ups and down ahead, and there will be moments of legitimate optimism.
But nobody is going to be able to stop the process that has now begun, and economic conditions will ultimately become far worse than most Americans would dare to imagine.

Wake Up America, You are the Last Asylum for Liberty on Earth
Judge Andrew Napolitano recently made the following accurate claims on Fox Business Channel:
“The lockdown in Maine, just like the lockdowns everywhere else, is without legal authority.” “It may be wise. It may be scientific — it may be the right thing to do … I cooperate with it — you cooperate with it — the overwhelming majority of Americans may cooperate with it, but it is not the law. Governors don’t write the law. Only state legislatures do.”
Many scientific experts, having reviewed the now available data, are concluding that the COVID-19 virus is not as dangerous and not as deadly as had previously been imagined. However, the lawless actions of many governors across our country are proving to be more dangerous and deadly than perhaps anyone can imagine.
As we have said before, any governor’s false imprisonment of the general populace in their homes, the arbitrary declaration of some commerce as non-essential, the misuse of police powers to enforce pretended legislation, is all without constitutional authority and demonstrates a profound disrespect for the rule of law.
Briefly described, the “rule of law” is the principle that all people, including those in authority and all institutions, are accountable to the law, which is fairly applied and enforced.
In Federalist Paper 47, Father of the Constitution James Madison made the assertion:
“The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands, whether of one, a few, or many, and whether hereditary, self-appointed, or elective, may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.”
Last week I had the opportunity to address a crowd of 1,000 or so patriots at the capital of North Carolina. I reasoned that the lawless closure order of the Governor was outrageous and filled with contempt for the rule of law.
But isn’t it also dangerous, because lawlessness breeds lawlessness?
When the chief executive of the state jettisons his duty as the protector of rights and becomes a violator of rights, he becomes a lawbreaker and he sets an example that encourages other officials to lose respect for law and order as well.
In his famous book entitled “The Law ,” Frederick Bastiat noted, “No society can exist unless the laws are respected… The safest way to make laws respected is to make them respectable.”
When those who are charged with enforcing the law, use the law to break the law, the law becomes perverted…and disrespected.
I recently went out to play ultimate frisbee with a handful of families that had been quarantining over the past month. While keeping distance, we were still asked by a reluctant law enforcement officer to disperse.
However, another officer, clearly at odds with this ridiculous order, informed us of another park where we would not be “harassed,” and we were able to finish the day’s enjoyment.
While my story ends with a good recreational conclusion, I submit to you there is not another country where the arm of tyrannical, coercive, socialism will not harass us.
In the words of Samuel Adams:
“Courage, then, my countrymen, our contest is not only whether we ourselves shall be free, but whether there shall be left to mankind an asylum on earth for civil and religious liberty.”

Keep Calm & Cloister On

As the reader will likely have noticed , there ’ s a common theme playing out in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic on the part of some of our elected officials .
Here , I refer to the emergence of little tin gods among leftist governors , some of whom are resisting calls to ease stay-at-home orders and social distancing restrictions .
This week , conservative commentator and former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino excoriated certain governors in this regard , calling them “ mini tyrants ” as he condemned California Gov .
Gavin Newsom for extending marginally constitutional @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in his state closed .
Newsom isn ’ t alone , of course .
Illinois Gov .
J.B. Pritzker was taken to task over his stay-at-home order on religious grounds ( which a U.S. district judge nevertheless ruled as constitutional earlier this week ) , and New York Gov .
Andrew Cuomo ’ s clumsy vacillation between prudence and leftist objectives continues to provide cheap entertainment on a daily basis – at least for those who don ’ t live in my former home state .
Anyone who ’ s been paying attention @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most egregious actions have been taken by Michigan Gov .
Gretchen Whitmer , whom I believe is emotionally disturbed on a very deep level .
Arrogant and imperious , she probably exemplifies the deportment against which Mr. Bongino railed .
It ’ s obvious that the nationwide cloistering is getting old for a lot of folks , and most Americans want to see restrictions eased in their states , largely for economic reasons .
It ’ s also noteworthy that private citizens who are making a lot of noise in this regard are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the political spectrum .
I certainly agree that some of these little tin gods have abused their offices , and it ’ s evident that a few are desperately clinging to the augmented powers they ’ ve enjoyed during this pandemic .
As I indicated earlier in this space , some would probably love to see the crisis drag on indefinitely .
Part of this has to do with the advantage they believe they will have over President Donald Trump going into the November election the longer the pandemic persists , but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a far bigger role .
Perhaps it is because I was exposed to the concept of abuse of power and authority at a very young age , but I have very little tolerance for those who do abuse their offices , whether in education , the criminal justice system or government .
Quite honestly , I don ’ t think there ’ s anything I find more despicable .
In good conscience , however , I have to admit that there are stupid things being said and done across the board ( meaning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ aisle ) .
Some of this has clearly been reactive rather than deliberative and has the potential to significantly compound our problems .
Case in point : I ’ m in contact with people who work on the front lines in the battle against COVID-19 on a daily basis and , as I ’ ve said more than once , I ’ ve worked with infectious diseases .
I know that this pathogen is not “ just like the flu , ” and despite the very real political opportunism afoot , I don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ overplayed .
This is a serious illness , and it would seem to me that erring on the side of caution with a disease that could conceivably kill you is probably a pretty good idea .
Then we have the armed protesters who demonstrated against Gov .
Whitmer ’ s stay-at-home order at Michigan ’ s Capitol building , which drew some very well-placed criticism from Fox News ’ Sean Hannity .
While I readily confess that Gov .
Whitmer would be close to the top of my list of tin gods , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a government building brandishing firearms to “ make a statement.
” You do this when all other contingencies have failed , as our founders intended .
Inasmuch as Whitmer isn ’ t rounding up coronavirus patients and having them incinerated , it occurs to me that there is still sufficient time to remedy the Michigan situation in a civilized manner , either through recall , or simply voting Whitmer out of office at the earliest opportunity .
In the current political climate , it is imperative that those of us who have the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ efforts to do so despite the stresses and frustrations attendant to this pandemic .
We already know that those on the left lack the ability to do so , and that any lapses on our part in this area will only provide fodder for their propaganda and wild accusations , as well as inordinately alarming our neighbors .

As the reader will likely have noticed, there’s a common theme playing out in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic on the part of some of our elected officials. Here, I refer to the emergence of little tin gods among leftist governors, some of whom are resisting calls to ease stay-at-home orders and social distancing restrictions. This week, conservative commentator and former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino excoriated certain governors in this regard, calling them “mini tyrants” as he condemned California Gov. Gavin Newsom for extending marginally constitutional stay-at-home orders and keeping parks and beaches in his state closed.
Newsom isn’t alone, of course. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker was taken to task over his stay-at-home order on religious grounds (which a U.S. district judge nevertheless ruled as constitutional earlier this week), and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s clumsy vacillation between prudence and leftist objectives continues to provide cheap entertainment on a daily basis – at least for those who don’t live in my former home state.
Anyone who’s been paying attention will be aware that some of the most egregious actions have been taken by Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, whom I believe is emotionally disturbed on a very deep level. Arrogant and imperious, she probably exemplifies the deportment against which Mr. Bongino railed.
It’s obvious that the nationwide cloistering is getting old for a lot of folks, and most Americans want to see restrictions eased in their states, largely for economic reasons. It’s also noteworthy that private citizens who are making a lot of noise in this regard are on both the left and right sides of the political spectrum.
I certainly agree that some of these little tin gods have abused their offices, and it’s evident that a few are desperately clinging to the augmented powers they’ve enjoyed during this pandemic. As I indicated earlier in this space, some would probably love to see the crisis drag on indefinitely. Part of this has to do with the advantage they believe they will have over President Donald Trump going into the November election the longer the pandemic persists, but I believe that power intoxication is playing a far bigger role.
Perhaps it is because I was exposed to the concept of abuse of power and authority at a very young age, but I have very little tolerance for those who do abuse their offices, whether in education, the criminal justice system or government. Quite honestly, I don’t think there’s anything I find more despicable.
In good conscience, however, I have to admit that there are stupid things being said and done across the board (meaning by parties on both sides of the aisle). Some of this has clearly been reactive rather than deliberative and has the potential to significantly compound our problems.
Case in point: I’m in contact with people who work on the front lines in the battle against COVID-19 on a daily basis and, as I’ve said more than once, I’ve worked with infectious diseases. I know that this pathogen is not “just like the flu,” and despite the very real political opportunism afoot, I don’t believe the risks are being overplayed. This is a serious illness, and it would seem to me that erring on the side of caution with a disease that could conceivably kill you is probably a pretty good idea.
Then we have the armed protesters who demonstrated against Gov. Whitmer’s stay-at-home order at Michigan’s Capitol building, which drew some very well-placed criticism from Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
While I readily confess that Gov. Whitmer would be close to the top of my list of tin gods, you don’t lay siege to a government building brandishing firearms to “make a statement.” You do this when all other contingencies have failed, as our founders intended. Inasmuch as Whitmer isn’t rounding up coronavirus patients and having them incinerated, it occurs to me that there is still sufficient time to remedy the Michigan situation in a civilized manner, either through recall, or simply voting Whitmer out of office at the earliest opportunity.
In the current political climate, it is imperative that those of us who have the capacity to govern our passions double our efforts to do so despite the stresses and frustrations attendant to this pandemic. We already know that those on the left lack the ability to do so, and that any lapses on our part in this area will only provide fodder for their propaganda and wild accusations, as well as inordinately alarming our neighbors.

thewashingtonstandard--2020-05-08--Jobs Lost In April More Than Double Those Lost During Last Recession

Jobs Lost In April More Than Double Those Lost During Last Recession Yes , you read that headline correctly .
The economic downturn of 2008 and 2009 is often referred to as “ the Great Recession ” because the U.S. had not experienced economic pain of that magnitude since the Great Depression of the 1930s .
Millions of Americans lost their jobs , mortgage defaults soared and Wall Street was shaken to the core .
But as bad as things were during the last recession , things are even worse now .
To say that what we are witnessing is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it justice , because what is happening to the U.S. economy in 2020 is truly , truly horrifying , and many believe that what we have experienced so far is just the beginning .
ADP has been tracking private payrolls in the United States for many , many years , and each month their payroll report is watched very carefully by economists .
Prior to this year , the worst month in the history of the ADP report was in February 2009 when 834,665 jobs were shed from U.S. private payrolls .
Needless @ @ @ @ @ @ @ got completely shattered… So what this means is that the number of private payroll jobs lost in the United States last month was more than 24 times greater than the previous all-time record .
In fact , the number of private payroll jobs lost last month was more than double the total number of jobs lost during the last recession… We have never seen an unemployment spike like this ever before , and we may never see a spike quite like it ever again .
Of course there are some people out there @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that many of these job losses are “ temporary ” and that millions of Americans will soon be going back to work .
Yes , as states begin to end their lockdowns the U.S. economy will regain millions of the jobs that have been lost .
But there are also millions of jobs that we aren ’ t ever going to get back .
The following comes from a Bloomberg article entitled “ Layoffs Start Turning From Temporary to Permanent Across America ” … I personally know quite a few people that have @ @ @ @ @ @ @ probably do too .
This week , we learned that Lord & Taylor plans to start the process of liquidating , and all of their employees will soon be out on the street on a permanent basis… But much , much , much more importantly , we are about to see a wave of small business failures in the United States that will absolutely dwarf anything that we have ever seen before in our history .
Governors all across America can end the lockdowns , but they can ’ t order people to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ many months to come , fear of COVID-19 is going to prevent millions of consumers from resuming their normal economic patterns , and so small businesses all over the country will be facing greatly reduced revenues for the foreseeable future .
Needless to say , many of them aren ’ t going to make it and those that fail are going to have to let all of their workers go .
In an article that I just posted , I discussed a stunning new survey that discovered that 52 percent of all small @ @ @ @ @ @ @ expect to be out of business within six months ” .
We are talking about millions of businesses that may soon be saying goodbye to all of their employees for good .
Giant corporations have the resources to make it through an extended downturn , but most small businesses do not .
It is hard enough to try to run a profitable small business even when conditions are ideal , but now this pandemic has made that task nearly impossible in many cases .
So yes , the U.S. economy will recover some @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the lockdowns , but we will also continue to bleed more jobs in the months ahead .
I know that a lot of my readers are quite eager for a return to “ normal ” , but we have to realize that the “ old normal ” is gone .
Instead , a “ new normal ” is starting to emerge , and on Tuesday California Governor Gavin Newsom warned that we won ’ t fully get there “ until we get to immunity and a vaccine ” … Unfortunately , it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ herd immunity ” in the United States before 2021 , and the quest for a “ vaccine ” is not going to be easy .
If you doubt this , just do some research and find out how many other successful coronavirus vaccines there have been in our history .
When they tell you that an easy solution is right around the corner , they aren ’ t being honest with you .
Meanwhile , the U.S. economy is literally imploding all around us , and this is just the start of our @ @ @ @ @ @ @ COVID-19 is not as deadly as many were originally projecting .
Instead of millions dead , the final death toll in the U.S. will probably only be in the hundreds of thousands .

Yes, you read that headline correctly. The economic downturn of 2008 and 2009 is often referred to as “the Great Recession” because the U.S. had not experienced economic pain of that magnitude since the Great Depression of the 1930s. Millions of Americans lost their jobs, mortgage defaults soared and Wall Street was shaken to the core. But as bad as things were during the last recession, things are even worse now. To say that what we are witnessing is “unprecedented” doesn’t do it justice, because what is happening to the U.S. economy in 2020 is truly, truly horrifying, and many believe that what we have experienced so far is just the beginning.
ADP has been tracking private payrolls in the United States for many, many years, and each month their payroll report is watched very carefully by economists.
Prior to this year, the worst month in the history of the ADP report was in February 2009 when 834,665 jobs were shed from U.S. private payrolls. Needless to say, that old record just got completely shattered…
Private payrolls hemorrhaged more than 20 million jobs in April as companies sliced workers amid a coronavirus-induced shutdown that took most of the U.S. economy offline, according to a report Wednesday from ADP. In all, the decline totaled 20,236,000 — easily the worst loss in the survey’s history going back to 2002 but not as bad as the 22 million that economists surveyed by Dow Jones had been expecting. The previous record was 834,665 in February 2009 amid the financial crisis and accompanying Great Recession.
So what this means is that the number of private payroll jobs lost in the United States last month was more than 24 times greater than the previous all-time record.
In fact, the number of private payroll jobs lost last month was more than double the total number of jobs lost during the last recession…
“Job losses of this scale are unprecedented,” said Ahu Yildirmaz, co-head of the ADP Research Institute, which compiles the report in conjunction with Moody’s Analytics. “The total number of job losses for the month of April alone was more than double the total jobs lost during the Great Recession.”
We have never seen an unemployment spike like this ever before, and we may never see a spike quite like it ever again.
Of course there are some people out there that have been quick to remind me that many of these job losses are “temporary” and that millions of Americans will soon be going back to work.
Yes, as states begin to end their lockdowns the U.S. economy will regain millions of the jobs that have been lost.
But there are also millions of jobs that we aren’t ever going to get back. The following comes from a Bloomberg article entitled “Layoffs Start Turning From Temporary to Permanent Across America”…
Plenty of layoffs that just a month ago were labeled “temporary” are now tagged “indefinite” or “permanent.” Alongside announcements of sweeping staff cuts by major employers such as Boeing Co. and U.S. Steel Corp. and the accelerating pace of downsizing in brick-and-mortar retailing, such notices are a sign that even as businesses continue to hope for a speedy recovery, they are starting to plan for a slow one.
I personally know quite a few people that have permanently lost their jobs, and you probably do too.
This week, we learned that Lord & Taylor plans to start the process of liquidating, and all of their employees will soon be out on the street on a permanent basis…
Venerable U.S. retailer Lord & Taylor plans to liquidate inventory in its 38 department stores once restrictions to curb the spread of coronavirus are lifted as it braces for a bankruptcy process from which it does not expect to emerge, people familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. Lord & Taylor’s preparations to liquidate its inventory as soon as its stores reopen offer a window into the grim future of a high-profile retailer – a storied department store chain founded in 1826 and billed as the oldest in the United States – that does not expect to survive the pandemic’s economic fallout.
But much, much, much more importantly, we are about to see a wave of small business failures in the United States that will absolutely dwarf anything that we have ever seen before in our history.
Governors all across America can end the lockdowns, but they can’t order people to go out and spend money. For many months to come, fear of COVID-19 is going to prevent millions of consumers from resuming their normal economic patterns, and so small businesses all over the country will be facing greatly reduced revenues for the foreseeable future.
Needless to say, many of them aren’t going to make it and those that fail are going to have to let all of their workers go. In an article that I just posted, I discussed a stunning new survey that discovered that 52 percent of all small business owners in the United States “expect to be out of business within six months”.
We are talking about millions of businesses that may soon be saying goodbye to all of their employees for good.
Giant corporations have the resources to make it through an extended downturn, but most small businesses do not. It is hard enough to try to run a profitable small business even when conditions are ideal, but now this pandemic has made that task nearly impossible in many cases.
So yes, the U.S. economy will recover some of the jobs that were lost during the lockdowns, but we will also continue to bleed more jobs in the months ahead.
I know that a lot of my readers are quite eager for a return to “normal”, but we have to realize that the “old normal” is gone.
Instead, a “new normal” is starting to emerge, and on Tuesday California Governor Gavin Newsom warned that we won’t fully get there “until we get to immunity and a vaccine”…
California Gov. Gavin Newsom said as many counties around the state prepare to reopen retail for curbside pickup Friday, maintaining physical-distancing measures will be crucial to reduce the risk of coronavirus spread. “We’re not going back to normal,” said Newsom, who gave Tuesday’s press briefing from the site of a Sacramento business called Display California. “It’s a new normal with adaptations and modifications, until we get to immunity and a vaccine.”
Unfortunately, it is exceedingly unlikely that we will reach “herd immunity” in the United States before 2021, and the quest for a “vaccine” is not going to be easy.
If you doubt this, just do some research and find out how many other successful coronavirus vaccines there have been in our history.
When they tell you that an easy solution is right around the corner, they aren’t being honest with you.
Meanwhile, the U.S. economy is literally imploding all around us, and this is just the start of our troubles.
The good news is that COVID-19 is not as deadly as many were originally projecting. Instead of millions dead, the final death toll in the U.S. will probably only be in the hundreds of thousands.
As this pandemic eventually begins to subside, use it as an opportunity to get prepared for what is coming next, because COVID-19 is definitely not the worst thing we are going to face.

Florida: Cop Tries To Kill Innocent Family’s Dog – Shoots Himself In The Foot Instead
Putnam County, FL — Proportionately, cops kill far more dogs than they do people. It’s quite a strange phenomena because postal workers, UPS drivers, and food delivery drivers don’t seem to have the same problems with dogs like cops do. It’s so devious, the killing of family pets by those sworn to serve and protect the public, we actually keep an archive of stories of cops killing man’s best friend. But one cop learned the hard way shooting a dog can be dangerous. He shot himself instead of the dog.
Chris Crenshaw, of Putnam County, had committed no crime and had harmed no one when a Putnam County deputy came to his home, walked into his gated yard and knocked on the front door before attempting to kill his dog.
Police were reportedly looking for a person who’d ran away from home. When the deputy knocked at the door, Crenshaw’s dog ran outside and police claim it charged the officer.
That’s when the deputy opened fire. Luckily for the dog, however, the deputy shot himself in the foot instead and the dog is fine. News 4 JAX reports that according to the Sheriff’s Office, the deputy reached for his gun to shoot the dog, but the dog moved out of the way and the deputy accidentally shot himself in the foot.
Investigators said the deputy was hospitalized and was expected to be OK.
Crenshaw took to Facebook to voice his anger over the cop’s attempted puppycide. He wrote:
So this mother f**ker almost shot my dog for him being n the gate knocking on door an Mrs Lou went outside an the dog ran out an trigger happy mother f**ker almost shot my dog instead he shot his own damn foot.
Crenshaw explained in the post that multiple cops showed up after the cop shot himself. Crehshaw explained that he told police that had the deputy actually shot his dog, they would’ve had to shoot him too, writing in the comments:
I told him if he would have shot my dog he would have to shot me we all gonna be some shot mother f**kers an I was like 40-50 feet away lol dude grabbed his gun like he was gonna shoot me just for saying it
He also explained that they wouldn’t give him the officer’s name.
They won’t give me the officer name they say it’s gotta be investigated first .I said well then I want to press charges on him an they all looked at me like I was stupid an didn’t say sh*t
The Sheriff’s Office said no charges have been filed against Crenshaw and the deputy’s act of shooting himself in the foot is under investigation.
So this mother fucker almost shot my dog for him being n the gate knocking on door an Mrs Lou went outside an the dog ran out an trigger happy mother fucker almost shot my dog instead he shot his own damn foot Posted by Chris Crenshaw on Wednesday, May 6, 2020
As this case, and others like it illustrate, it is no secret that police officers are unafraid to put the lives of innocent people in danger and pull their guns out to shoot at dogs. The Free Thought Project has reported on multiple instances in which cops have attempted to shoot dogs and shot men, women, and children instead.
As we reported earlier last year, even their fellow officers aren’t safe from cops attempting to kill dogs.

Officer Jesse Hill was at the Steele residence acting as an escort in their domestic dispute incident. During this commotion, the couple’s dog came running out of the house.
“Hey, hey, quit fighting, stop it,” says Hill.
In the video, we can hear the dog growl, at which point Hill says, “Get your dog.” Only moments later, Hill fired off two rounds.
One of the shots struck Autumn Steele in the arm and another in the chest. The dog was also hit, but he recovered. Sadly, Steele would not recover and died at the hospital. Police and the DA then proceeded railroad Steele’s family as they fought for justice. A tragedy from all sides.
