It really isn&#8217;t that hard is it? Oh, it can be difficult if we don&#8217;t take care of those things I mentioned but being intelligent in the general sense, as I mentioned, is what we all do. So, here comes the earthquake, about a 10.6 on the Richter scale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where do some people get off saying America is a horrible place and then go right to slavery to make their point? Are these morons aware of history? Do they learn and study what other nations filled with human frailty have done? Nah, they don&#8217;t have time to know much about anything except their pet peeves. Is there a single nation in history that did nothing but the right things? Duh, NO! What are nations made from? Oh, yeah, that&#8217;s right, human beings. I almost forgot in the furor of blaming others for what I would do given the same damn circumstances! An example of being stupid that will easily roil the ignorant is pot. Legalized pot. For what? Why, to get high and not be able to drive legally. Are you kidding me? May as well drive drunk after hitting the bars around town. How did that work out for the person you killed driving drunk?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Slavery, yeah, I am going back and forth and why shouldn&#8217;t I when speaking of stupid. Or &#8220;stupoid&#8221; as I term it. Kind of like &#8220;meteoroid&#8221; in a sense. Burn through the atmosphere and blow a gaping hole in a place you had no damn business being. Meteors are fundamentally stupid aren&#8217;t they or they would look out for themselves. Same with protestors. They know nothing so they protest without knowledge. They are, however, egged on by those with knowledge and a hint of perversion in their thought process which makes them no better than a child molester. Just doin&#8217; my thing! Thing?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It occurs to me that we are in greater danger in America internally than externally. Stupid and perverted individuals in large groups bode no good for freedom. I go back the late 1940&#8217;s so I have watched the change as perversion go from minimal and specialized, to illegal but condoned, yet all are a form of perversion, just like Larry Flint who championed adult images for the masses. Why? Perverted dunderheads getting their own way through the government and the left. It didn&#8217;t happen when Republicans said no. It happened when progressives said yes. And so it has gone ever since. Up with perversion, down with religion, and look what we have to show for all this: a nation lost in its own detritus like flies on doggy do. Happy summer.<\/p>\n<p>Views: 10<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most of us consider ourselves at least fairly intelligent in that we go to work, play when we can, and keep track of our affairs, such as family and bills, children and&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":357,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,6,18,10,22,12,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-490","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-barn-door","category-dumbflock","category-flak","category-glorp","category-s-heels","category-simplicity","category-stupid"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=490"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":491,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/490\/revisions\/491"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/357"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=490"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=490"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/xogzap.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=490"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
