Enough!

To the men and women of the Los Angeles City Fire Department: we love you and we support you 100%! Thank you for all you do!

With that being said, the rank and file are having a hell of a time. With fighting a fire in the seventh parallel of hell to dealing with leadership that want to disrupt the cohesion and uniformity that is the LAFD.

The Assistant Fire Chief for the Los Angeles City Fire Department, Kristine Larson says in the clip that people want first responders to your house that look like you! WTF! We would love if Barry Allen aka The Flash responded every time, but again; nobody cares except these mental midgets! Then Chief Larson defends the fact that most women do not have the upper body strength as most men to carry a 180-pound person out of a fire. Chief Larson’s response: “He got himself in the wrong place if I have to carry him out of a fire.” Nice. How about: “Women in the Los Angeles Fire Department train to carry your husband out of a building on fire!”

Nothing about faster response times, firefighter safety, better tactics, better means for saving lives, fire prevention, or things that the LAFD is responsible for. Nope its race, gender, sexual orientation all day every day!

The Man You Don’t Know

Like I always say: “Things happen for a reason.” Long story short I had the pleasure to talk with movie director Christoper Martini. And like everyone else I meet through the family, Chris couldn’t have been any nicer. He is the director of the movie The Man You Don’t Know. A documentary movie of people who met Donald Trump saying what a wonderful human being he is. Way before he rode down that escalator, his acts of kindness to people were legendary. For every one unverified bullshit story about Trump, there are a thousand verified stories of kindness with “The man from Queens.”

Martini’s movie is in theaters. But; you wouldn’t know it. It seems like movie theaters are either not showing it, showing it when there is low turnout with movie goers or even block seats in theaters so movie goers have crummy reserved seats which will turn away movie goers. If I was the studio, theater, or anyone vested in the movie, I would be pissed. This is money lost. Politics or not, people are losing money! IF The Man You Don’t Know was a bomb like The Apprentice then it would be pulled from the theaters! Half the country love Donald Trump. Why not let the consumer decide!

We are flying down a slippery slope of censorship! Social media is not a platform for free speech. People like us are shadowbanned, have their content removed and sometimes just straight up banned from the platform. On Tiktok, I read an endorsement for Donald Trump. 8 hours and I get only 300+ views!? That’s why we need to support independent media and support one another. We need to defend free speech, no matter how awful the speech is!
