Month: August 2020

Whites Fleeing Los Angeles Headed to Tennessee

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 6 Comments

That is what the UK Daily Mail is reporting, but I would love to see some stats about where all of those leaving their soiled nests are now resettling (and likely bringing those liberal policies that created the LA hellhole with them).

UK Daily Mail:

Hollywood’s Apocalypse NOW: Rich and famous are fleeing in droves as liberal politics and coronavirus turn City of Dreams into cesspit plagued by junkies and violent criminals

Today, Los Angeles is a city on the brink. ‘For Sale’ signs are seemingly dotted on every suburban street as the middle classes, particularly those with families, flee for the safer suburbs, with many choosing to leave LA altogether.

British-born Danny O’Brien runs Watford Moving & Storage. ‘There is a mass exodus from Hollywood,’ he says.

‘And a lot of it is to do with politics.’ His business is booming. ‘August has already set records and we are only halfway through the month,’ he tells me.

‘People are getting out in droves. Last week I moved a prominent person in the music industry from a $6.5 million [£5 million] mansion above Sunset Boulevard to Nashville.’

O’Brien, 58, who moved to LA from London 34 years ago, is also planning to move to Tennessee.

‘Liberal politics has destroyed this city,’ he says. ‘The homeless encampments are legal and there’s nothing the police can do. White, affluent middle-class folk are getting out. People don’t feel safe any more.’

With movie studios still shuttered because of the coronavirus pandemic and businesses only just starting to remove the wooden boards put up after city-wide rioting following the death of George Floyd while being arrested by three white officers in Minneapolis, LA is now in the grip of white flight.

Rush Limbaugh at one point was advocating that the President should do campaign stops in California (and elsewhere) to highlight what has become of big Democrat run cities.  What do you think?

Update:  Think twice about packing your bags for Tennessee as even there the Republican governor is drinking the BLM Kool-Aid.  Read the Dailyrollcall and see what I mean!

Warning: Two Weeks of (Relative!) Peace Left before Prediction of September Chaos

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 2 Comments

Three weeks ago today I talked about prepping for possible increased social unrest that could mean shortages in grocery stores and an uptick in violence on city (small town!) streets.

How are you doing with your prepping? Time is growing short according to many observers who are following the evolution of what they expect to be a perfect storm.

Here is one such view suggesting that we don’t have until November—a date which most of us assume will bring Armageddon if Trump is elected to four more years in the White House—to prepare for the safety of your loved ones.

By the way, I find it very uncomfortable sounding like a fearmonger, but I see no downside to stocking up, locking up, and making plans with your family to defend what is yours.   I think it’s mentally a good exercise to rid yourself of the “normalcy bias” and imagine some what-if scenarios so if all hell breaks loose you are mentally and physically prepared.

If no hell, then thank God, laugh at yourself and enjoy fewer trips to the store this winter.

From End of the American Dream (Hat tip: Leo):

Enjoy The Month Of August And Use It To Prepare, Because September Is Coming…

 

2020 has definitely been a chaotic year so far. The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly disrupted life all over the planet, we have witnessed a horrific economic downturn, and civil unrest has been raging in major U.S. cities for months. But the good news is that we appear to have hit a pocket of relative calm here in August.

Yes, global events are still going crazy, and the bizarre explosion that we just witnessed in Beirut is just one example. But compared to what we experienced during the first half of 2020 and compared to what we will experience during the last portion of this year, I believe that August should be relatively peaceful.

I would encourage everyone to enjoy this month as much as possible and to use it to prepare for what is ahead, because September is just around the corner.

Of course many Americans can’t imagine things getting much worse than they are right now. Gallup regularly asks Americans whether they are “satisfied” with the direction of the country or not, and what they have discovered is that the mood of the country has shifted dramatically since February, and this has especially been true among Republicans…

[….]

I believe that this will be the most chaotic election period in modern U.S. history, and I believe that much more civil unrest is ahead.

In particular, I believe that a Donald Trump victory in November or a contested result that is decided by a long legal battle could set off a national temper tantrum that would be absolutely unprecedented.

Snyder is well-known in the prepper world. https://talkmarkets.com/contributor/michael-snyder/

Author Michael Snyder goes on to say that a lot depends on what happens with the Chinese virus, etc…..then this:

The period of time that we have entered has been described as “a perfect storm”, and as I have detailed previously, quite a few prominent voices have been specifically pointing to the month of September as a major turning point.

Of course the craziness will also continue throughout the rest of 2020 and into 2021 as well. And beyond that, we will see things happen that most Americans would not even want to imagine right now.

[….]

I believe that this will be the strangest election season that any of us have ever seen, and I fully expect the craziness to begin next month.

Much more here. Be sure to see that Mr. Snyder has published a new book.

LOL! I see that author Michael Snyder attracted the attention of Ms. Miranda Blue of Right Wing Watch here in 2017.

I had a few laughs at RRW over the years as the Wing Watchers extraordinaire, Ms. Blue, found me a worthy target.  Here is one of several posts, this one in 2015 about yours truly.  And, she found this post of mine an especially worthy target for her vitriol.

Tucker on the Slaughter of Cannon Hinnant

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 3 Comments

Tucker first reported the dreadful story on Thursday night…..

 

 

And, now here at RightScoop you can find his updated report from last night:

Say His Name: Tucker & Nancy Grace take up Cannon Hinnant story; Why haven’t the media covered this story? What about it don’t they like?’

Cannon is a victim of the hate-filled racial tension the Left has been generating (forever!), but with increased seeming pleasure in recent months.

Is Cannon Hinnant Less Valuable than George Floyd?

~ Ann Corcoran ~ 14 Comments

Yes, apparently he is.  Unless you are a news junky who goes beyond the legacy media headlines, you likely have no idea who Cannon Hinnant is.

Hinnant was five years old and expected to start kindergarten this year, but that will never be. He won’t play sports, go to the prom, get married or have kids of his own because he is dead—a little innocent white boy killed by his black neighbor for no apparent reason as he rode his bike in the neighborhood.

This is what happened last Sunday…..

From WSET in Wilson, North Carolina:

‘I screamed’: Father of slain 5-year-old says he can’t fathom why his son was killed

WILSON, N.C. (WSET) — The 5-year-old boy who was shot to death outside his father’s home in Wilson, North Carolina has been laid to rest.

Witnesses told police that Cannon Hinnant was riding a bike when his father’s neighbor walked up to him and shot him in the head in front of his two sisters, ages 8 and 7.

Capt. Steve Stroud with the Wilson Police Department said officers and emergency personnel performed first aid before the boy was taken to Wilson Medical Center, where he died.
“They were just playing in the yard like any other day,” Austin Hinnant, Cannon’s father, told WRAL.

A neighbor, who told WRAL she witnessed the shooting from her window, said Sessoms ran up to Cannon and put the gun to his head before running back into his own home. She called 911 after seeing Austin’s reaction.

Police said 25-year-old Darius Nathaniel Sessoms was arrested Monday. He’s charged with first-degree murder and is being held without bond.

Austin told the news station that Sessoms had been over to his home the day before, sat on his porch and drank beer, and they have lived next to each other for eight years.

“The Lord says to love our neighbor. I have plenty of food to go around. I just wanted to be nice,” Hinnant said. “There wasn’t anything between me and him, any bad blood whatsoever, for him to have a reason to do this.”

[….]

Austin said he doesn’t know why Sessoms killed Cannon and police have not released any details as to a possible motive.

During Cannon’s funeral Thursday, his youth pastor and grandfather talked about his big smile and his even bigger heart.

I knew that VDARE would likely have some comment on the dreadful story even as the big media avoided it, and they do in a piece by Paul Kersey:

His Name Is Cannon Hinnant: Five-Year Old White Boy Shot and Murdered Execution-Style by Black Neighbor

(After explaining how it came to be, a suggestion that maybe a sea change is coming.  We can only hope.)

With what happened to Cannon Hinnant, though, we might be seeing the early stages of a profound shift in thinking, where the story of a five-year-old white child murdered execution-style by his black neighbor and the complete silence from the corporate media (that just spent nearly three months canonizing a black man who once put a gun to the belly of a pregnant woman he was robbing in a home invasion and then died of fentanyl overdose while resisting arrest in Minneapolis) provides the much-needed realization to a lot of people that to our elite, white lives don’t matter.

It takes dramatic examples to shake people from their apathy and indifference toward the evil peddled as morality by our elite.

His name is Cannon Hinnant. Right now, tens of millions are learning his name and how he died. They are starting to realize that to our elite, white lives don’t matter. They are asking why this story isn’t all over every media outlet, yet George Floyd — a convicted felon — somehow became a hero worthy of burning down cities, tearing down statues, and momentarily losing all sanity over.

And once they realize why this is, they’ll learn the truth of interracial crime.

What most people implicitly know, stories such as Cannon Hinnant’s execution-style murder by his black neighbor make the explicit possible.

Their Lives Matter Too.

The Blaze has a piece too:

‘#SayHisName’ trends after mainstream media’s silence on the atrocious killing of 5-year-old Cannon Hinnant

By Wednesday night and into Thursday morning, the hashtag #SayHisName trended on Twitter. Many, including Jason Howerton, pointed out that there was zero coverage of Cannon Hinnant’s murder by several mainstream media networks.

And, see also that #JusticeforCannon is trending.

See if you can help get this story out. Let’s shame the media hypocrites into reporting it even if only one one hundredth of what they did for George Floyd!

It is sad, the innocent boy should rest in peace and we should pray for the family, but unfortunately we now must fight like the Left fights. If we don’t, they win.

If you have trouble (if you feel like it is playing dirty), then think about how this story would be playing if a little black boy riding a bike was shot at point blank range by a white man.

Besides spreading the word on social media, one thing you can do is make a poster for any rally you attend that says something like Justice for Cannon, or Say His Name—Cannon Hinnant on it and maybe force reporters to pay attention.

Ohio: Police Officer Sues Social Media Users who Claimed He Used Racist Hand Signal

~ Ann Corcoran

Oh this is really good!

Earlier today I saw the news from last month that conservative cartoonist Ben Garrison has filed a multi-million dollar defamation lawsuit against the Anti-Defamation League which claims he published an anti-Semitic cartoon. Read about the case here.

Now I see that a Cincinnati Police officer isn’t going to take it laying down when citizens complained to the Citizens Complaint Authority (do you have one of these where you live???) claiming he used a ‘racist’ hand gesture at a public meeting held to discuss defunding the police.

Maybe the case of Nick Sandmann is just the catalyst we all needed! Go after these jerks whenever possible!

From WCPO-9:

Cincinnati police officer sues over being ‘portrayed as a white supremacist’

A Cincinnati police officer filed a lawsuit against four people, alleging their social media posts and complaints to the Citizens Complaint Authority falsely portrayed him as a racist and white supremacist after he made the “OK” gesture in public at City Hall.

For a chuckle, be sure to read what the ADL says about the Okay Hand Signal! https://www.adl.org/education/references/hate-symbols/okay-hand-gesture

The suit, filed July 22 in Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas, says police officer M.R. (who filed under a pseudonym) had been working crowd control in a noisy hallway during a Budget and Finance Committee meeting on June 24. A large number of protesters, fueled by outrage over the killing of George Floyd, had gathered to express their opinions about the city budget. Some wanted to defund the police.

And the hallway was noisy, according to the suit. Someone asked M.R. about another officer who recently left the scene; he made the “OK” sign by touching his thumb and index finger together.

NPR reported the Anti-Defamation League added the “OK” gesture to its “Hate on Display” database in 2019, saying some people associate the symbol with white supremacy.

The Southern Poverty Law Center has noted that the association started on the online imageboard 4Chan,where far-right users announced a coordinated hoax meant to bait left-leaning portions of the internet into embarrassing themselves by misidentifying the OK gesture as one linked to white supremacists.

Then real white supremacists started to use it. The SPLC report the gesture, although not exclusively or even mostly used by white supremacists, can be an effective public dogwhistle for some on the far right because it is so commonplace — like the original hoax, “what it’s about most of the time is a deliberate attempt to ‘trigger liberals’ into overreacting to a gesture so widely used that virtually anyone has plausible deniability built into their use of it in the first place.”

[….]

Judge Shanahan also granted anonymity to the officer who filed the suit while proceedings continue. A series of restraining orders will prohibit those named in the lawsuit from “doxxing” the officer, which means releasing his name or personal information with malicious intent. The officer’s attorneys said releasing that information puts the officer and his family in danger.

[….]

The lawsuit names four people as defendants: Julie Niesen, James Noe, Terhas White and Alissa Gilley.

Niesen and Noe posted false content about the plaintiff on social media, according to the suit.

White, who was present at the June 24 meeting, was “seeking to create conflict” by asking the plaintiff a series of questions, the lawsuit said. The next day, White filed a complaint with the Citizen Complaint Authority, in which White “falsely accused Plaintiff of using the ‘white power’ hand signal,” the suit said.
