We had a lot of rain a couple of weeks ago, it’s been dry since. I think we’re on fire watch. I saw a helicopter out scanning on Highway 3

And lead to WWII. Chris Rufo is trying to bury the whole civil rights movement and there are politicians who support him at Federal & State level (And Dani Smith in Alberta). The War on non-whites has started again in the US. Who will be the next John Brown? And will CW 2 be worse.

Act and the Voting Rights Act were bandages. Bubbling under the surface were the White Supremacists & the John Birch Society, who were waiting for their chance to Make the South rise again. This is eerily similar to the Peace Treaty at the end of World War One which left a pile of unresolved issues

The Civil War was caused by Racism. After the Civil War the government did some things to resolve the issues. The problem was, and continued to be is the US Government never put out the fire, they let embers go unattended. Jim Crow laws, the KKK, the courts & law enforcement issues. The Civil Rights

So a far right Neo-Nazi antisemitic racist criminal, who was sentenced to gaol for all of the above in Germany, secretly decided he was changing his sex declaration. It’s clear he’s trying to make a joke of a human rights issue. He needs to have completed a pre-registration, & waited 3 months. [1]

The electric company doesn’t notice your power use because of the suntan beds. Cops can’t smell the grass because of the nail salon products and the tattoo parlour might generate some income. But it allows scary looking guards Launder money through all three businesses and pay your property taxes

How to hide a grow op. Get a large building in a run down part of town. Open three businesses - a tattoo parlour, a suntanning place and a nail place. The grow op is in the basement. The nail salon has to have lots of open product, the suntan beds aren’t plugged in & the tattoo place is always busy.

Way back in the late 1800’s most North Americans worked at home. They had to cut trees for heat in the winter and for the stove. They grew their own food and tended to various animals. They made their own clothes. Ford when he opened factories had a tough time hiring people because of home work.
