Today, we honor the courageous men and women who lost their lives on July 7, 2016, during the tragic attacks in Dallas, Texas. Five officers made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting their community, and several others were wounded, including brave civilians. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. Let us remember them by continuing to strive for peace, understanding, and unity in our society. #NeverForget #DallasStrong

Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Sikh Guru, was a strong advocate for justice, equality, and standing up against oppression. While it's not possible to know exactly what he would do in any modern situation, his teachings encourage the protection of the innocent and the fight against tyranny in all its forms. As humans, there are several ways we can help stop genocide and support those affected by such crises: - **Educate ourselves** about the issues and the history behind them. - **Raise awareness** by discussing these topics within our communities and on social media. - **Support organizations** that work towards humanitarian relief and conflict resolution. - **Advocate for political action** by contacting representatives and supporting policies that aim to prevent such atrocities. It's important to approach these issues with compassion and understanding, working together towards peace and justice for all.
All views expressed are my own. I am accepting all connection requests from people who are standing up for the injustices currently taking place in Palestine and around the world.
Interesting Exchange 👉Both Abby Martin & Rania Khalek have refused to condemn Palestinian armed resistance when pushed to do so on Piers Morgan. Why? Let's make it simple. Americans do you condemn the founding fathers?

On September 11, 2001, our nation endured the most horrifying acts of terror in recent American history - a deliberate and despicable attack that resulted in the deaths of 2,977 people. That day saw both the worst and best of humanity, as first responders, medical service personnel, law enforcement professionals and ordinary civilians risked their lives to save the lives of others. In the face of terror, heroes ran toward burning buildings and charged hijacked cockpits, paying the ultimate sacrifice. Our brave men and women of the military quickly mobilized to defend our Constitution and send a clear message to the rest of the world. These attacks were intended to weaken our resolve and undermine our fundamental values, but Americans continue to embrace freedom and democracy instead of fear and oppression. 22 years later, as we reflect on this national day of remembrance, may we never forget the lives lost, sacrifices made and unwavering resilience of our country. #september11 #neverforget #insenate45

On January 6th, 2021, all of us globally witnessed the #insurrection at the #USCapitol where #DomesticTerrorists breached the Capitol Building to attempt a #CoupDEtat which ultimately failed. There are many disturbing pictures taken of that day of the violence that caused damage to the building and loss of life to the defenders of the US Capitol. But one picture that stands out to me is the one of this domestic terrorist carrying the #ConfederateFlag which for the first time in #USHistory was near or inside the Capitol. https://lnkd.in/e24svp8f The Confederate Flag which represents #bigotry, #hate, #racism and support of #slavery amongst many other heinous things was proudly flown by the losing side of the #US #CivilWar but it never made it within six miles of the US Capitol until exactly three years ago. Having gone to High School in the state of #Arkansas which was a #ConfederateState during the Civil War, I saw the flag that represents hate everywhere and never fully understood what it represented until I studied the true history of that flag on my own. I was definitely not going to learn its history in my high school in a state that still embraced that flag and continues to. There are many people downplaying what happened three years ago and a mind boggling 1 in 4 #Americans believe that January 6th, 2021 was instigated by the #FBI. Today is a solemn day and a day we should continue to remind ourselves of how easy it is for people to follow #Demagogues. #FoodForThought and something to ponder as we enter the #PresidentialElection this year. #SaturdayThoughts

What was that Civil disturbance (Racist Incident) in Mongomery Albama? 1. A test to determine the nonwhite American/African physical, political moral capabilities to respond to a tyrannical and oppressive first act of aggression in a conflict we all see coming. 2. A gauge of allyship by those who are truly allies accused of being woke by a conservative, elites and racist faction hell bent on white supremacy instead of equity, equality, inclusivity and elevated Quality of Life for all. 3. An immoral field reconnaissance from extremist factions to understand what happens when one or more opposes white supremacy and white privilege with integrity, logic loyalty and physical response. Stop sleeping and stay ready so you/we don't have to get ready. The first nonmilitary civil militia clandestine activity in class warfare with a racial undertone and supremacy overlay has happened. I repeat Stop sleeping and stay ready, so you don't have to get ready. Our vote does matter more than ever!!! But vote for WHAT and WHO is the question. We also have to be proactive and reactive with civic non civic action. Want to find out more, connect to a cause that is worthy of your time, talent and treasure.

A couple of great books for the law enforcement professional. Should be on the must read list.
Have you ever wondered why police officers wear a shield on their left side? This is a direct, intentional, overt reference to the knights of old. Gunpowder defeated armor, and the knights went away. Today, for the first time in centuries, in both the military and law enforcement communities, we have warriors who don armor every day, take up their shields, arm themselves, and go forth to do good deeds. If that is not a knight, if that is not a paladin, a new order of chivalry, then you tell me what is...(excerpt from On Combat~LTC Grossman) #firstresponders #thinblueline

#palestinians have been forced to chase the mirage of the "Two-State Solution" for two decades. #israel has now unveiled the ingenious "No-State Solution." It follows two simple steps to achieve its objectives Step 1. Since no one, not even a superpower, can survive isolation, focus on isolating the victim. Lobbies, media organizations and naval blockades come in handy at this stage. When the victim of isolation is driven to desperation he WILL resort to desperate measures! These desperate measures are called mistakes and miscalculations. International law tells us that the powerful should enjoy what they can and the weak should suffer what they must. Hence, mistakes made by the victims never go unpunished! Step 2. Never distract the victim when he is making a mistake and let real politik run its own majestic and blood drenched course. The "No-State Solution" works like magic. It is infact the Final Solution that has eluded homicidal maniacs less sophisticated than the Judea Christians forever

Fact: Hamas leader, Khaled Mashal, has called for an international day of rage today not against Israelis, not against zionists, but against Jews worldwide. Fact: Hundreds of Jewish day schools are closed today in the US. Fact: Hundreds of synagogues are scrambling to beef up security even further. Fact: Thousands of Jews are legally obtaining firearms. Fact: Millions of Jews are showing their Jewish pride. Fact: Provoked or not, communicating a threat, inciting a riot, and any sort of violence are all federal crimes. Fact: Regardless how proud a terrorist leader is of supporters he does not care about, local law enforcement should and will hold all perpetrators of hate accountable. Fact: Jews are not cowards, Jews are vigilant. Stay safe, please watch out for those targeted! Have a blessed weekend! ✌🏻 *Personal views, does not necessarily reflect views of DoD or USAF.

YOU KNOW IN YOUR HEART OF HEARTS HE SAID IT NO MATTER HOW MUCH HE SAYS "FAKE NEWS"! Welcome to the Ultimate Showdown: Conning Conundrum Syndrome vs. Trump Derangement Syndrome! In one corner, we have... Conning Conundrum Syndrome (CCS)! - Symptoms: Unshakable loyalty, denial reflex, and the blame game shuffle. Victims insist they haven't been conned by Trump and Putin, despite overwhelming evidence that could make a blindfolded jury shout "Guilty!" And in the other corner, we have... Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS)! - Symptoms: Uncontrollable eye-rolling at the mention of Trump, spontaneous fits of fact-checking, and an intense urge to debunk every tweet. Accused sufferers vehemently oppose Trump, sometimes with a fervor that rivals a sports fan during the playoffs. CCS - "Conning Conundrum Syndrome" is like having a GPS that stubbornly refuses to recalibrate. You're headed for a cliff, but it keeps saying, "Turn right in 100 feet." You’re convinced the destination is glorious, but spoiler alert: it’s a steep drop into reality. TDS - "Trump Derangement Syndrome" is like having a highly sensitive radar that detects every single Trump-related blip, no matter how small. You’re hyper-aware of every move, comment, and typo, often resulting in high blood pressure and a sudden urge to tweet. Denial vs. Obsession - CCS: "No way, Trump’s perfect!" - TDS: "No way, Trump’s terrible!" Blame Game vs. Blame Flame - CCS: "What about those emails?" - TDS: "What about that tax return?" Loyalty vs. Paranoia - CCS: "Trump could do no wrong." - TDS: "Trump can do no right." The Hilarious Hypocrisy: - CCS sufferers are like fans at a magic show, utterly convinced that the magician’s tricks are real, while TDS sufferers are the skeptics yelling, "I see the wires!" - CCS Remedy: "Come on, admitting you've been conned isn't that bad. Think of it like realizing the magician pulls rabbits out of hats, not thin air." - TDS Remedy: "Hey, take a breath. Sometimes it’s okay to let a tweet pass by without a full investigation. Not every blip is a bombshell." In the grand scheme of things, both CCS and TDS could use a little bit of perspective, a dash of humor, and a lot less stress. After all, life’s too short to be stuck in a syndrome, right? So, whether you’re staunchly defending or constantly critiquing, remember to laugh along the way. Because in the end, we’re all just trying to navigate this crazy world, one conundrum at a time.

The more I learn and read about how disastrous the resources are managed at the Department of Defense and its Armed Services branches, and how the present administration utilizes the law enforcement agencies to enforce and promote their political agendas persecuting the people who think different than the uniparty, how heroes are prosecuted for defending the innocent and criminals walk free, the more I question how much will the people take before they rise against an oppressive and authoritarian regime. There’s very little incentive for young men and women to serve the nation when their own government doesn’t honor the sacrifices of the men and women in uniform. Things need to change. America is unrecognizable.
