Ground Squirrel with Bubonic Plague Found in California
Plague has been in Arizona and other Mexican border states for a while so this isn’t surprising. One of the problems with an open border is that people who cross illegally aren’t screened for diseases that are uncommon here but common in the third world hell holes they are sensibly fleeing. If liberals really cared about these “undocumented workers” they’d want them screened and treated with good old-fashioned American medicine. What they really care about is creating an impoverished underclass that will vote them into power.
But I digress.
As the economy gets worse people are going to be tempted into subsistence hunting of small game. Doing so in California may be dangerous so be aware:
A ground squirrel found in the Cedar Grove Campground on Palomar Mountain has tested positive for plague, San Diego County health officials announced Thursday.
Officials found the infected animal during routine monitoring, county environmental health officials said. Humans can catch the often-fatal disease if they are bitten by infected fleas.
On Wednesday there were no reports of humans catching plague in San Diego County, officials said.
Officials said it’s not unusual to find plague in local mountains during the summer. People should look for warning signs posted in areas where plague has been found.
People visiting the wilderness in mountain should avoid contact with wild animals, especially if they’re sick or dead, avoid camping by animal burrows, and treat pets for fleas or leave them at home.
Anyone who has a sudden fever, chills, or tender, swollen lymph nodes within a week of visiting a known plague area should see a doctor immediately, officials advised.
It’s a sad state of affairs when the government is claiming that bubonic plague is not uncommon in the mountainous regions of America.
The Occupy Wall Street Protesters Are Basically Animals Link Round-Up
May Day provided the country with ample proof that the Occupy Wall Street movements are not just communist shills but basically animals whose only real goal is to violence and mayhem. The next time someone tells you how thoughtful and politically aware this grievance mongering hate cult is ask them how much thought went into the following:
The Ohio bridge bombers included at least two Occupy Cleveland leaders and at least one of those “politically aware” youths volunteered to wear a suicide bomb vest – if someone would get him drunk. The FBI also just announced that the scum thought the bombs were armed and repeatedly tried to detonate them with text messages while people were on the bridge.
In Seattle Occupy protesters formed Black Bloc brigades to besiege the city, destroy property and detonating homemade incendiary devices. A reporter covering the chaos was lacerated on the neck by Occupiers with a stick and only the intervention of local heroes Phoenix Jones, Midnight Jack and Caballero kept “protesters” from completely destroying the old federal courthouse.
In New York City Occupy “protesters” violently attacked reporters who were filming their mayhem.
The Blaze has video of a male Occupier in L.A. sneaking up on a tiny female police officer and hitting her in the back of the head with a drum. The LA Times reports another female officer was hit, again from behind, by an Occupier with a skateboard. Very few police were attacked from the front and almost no male police officers were attacked.
In San Fransisco Occupiers attacked police stations, businesses with people in them and even private homes where mothers huddled in terror with their children.Occupy Wall Street’s media arm called the devastation caused by the riots “gorgeous” just in case you thought there was anyone with morals at Occupy.
Oakland and NYC were under siege.
But continually I hear people claiming that Occupiers are the 99%. is that true? Do the majority of people assault reporters, attack families at home, sucker punch women and commit arson?
These people are animals raised by neglectful parents who instilled in them an inflated sense of entitlement and a rabid hatred for anyone who doesn’t stroke their egos or by them drugs. You need to understand that there is no real political goal here except tearing down what you have and they don’t. Although demographically most of these criminals are well off and have more than you and me anyway as the majority are the children of rich liberals.
This country will dissolve into chaos soon and these animals will run the streets like this every day. Are you prepared for that?
An Illustration of Theocratic Thinking in Iran
This tidbit was in the latest KGS Nightwatch missive:
IIran: For the record. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei provided the following guidance in response to a question about whether it was sinful to use social media. “In general, the use of social networking websites (such as Facebook, FriendFeed, Orkut, etc) is impermissible if their use entails a corrupt action (such as promoting corruption, spreading lies and false subjects) or if it creates fear of committing a sin, or if it boosts the enemies of Islam and Muslims, or if it is against the Islamic Republic’s laws.” Comment: Khamenei’s comment is worth noting by a Western Readership for two reasons. First is that it shows how Shi’i Muslims are expected to ask their role models for emulation – the ayatollahs — for guidance on everyday activities ranging from eating to using social media. The second reason is that the Ayatollah’s response conflates fear of committing sin with violations of the laws of the Islamic Republic or just boosting the enemies of Islam. In this moral architecture, illegality and evil are the same. That means that a traffic offense or other violation of national law is a sin, just like failure to keep the Ramadan fast, for example. That is not how Iranian law works in daily practice, to be sure, but it is the thinking of the religious leadership and the extremely devout. The West generally abandoned such thinking before the Renaissance.
which is why Westerners, especially liberals, have such trouble understanding Iranian motivations.
Governments Hoarding Gold in Preparation for Global Collapse
Countries are increasingly using gold for trade rather than dollars, euros or any other currency. Both India and China has recently been trading gold to Iran for oil and various moves away from the old system of trade have been observed world-wide.
Aside from the collapsing value of the dollar and Euro on reason countries are heading into gold is to avoid sanctions by the U.S. and Europe and have money on hand to by arms and supplies for military actions that the West might try to stop. India and China using gold for oil is also a stealth attack on the dollar, increasing both the value of gold and the pressure on the dollar.
Twelve other countries are noticeably increasing gold reserves in a move that is clearly a preparation for eventual global financial turmoil. From Mineweb.com:
According to the latest IMF statistics at least 12 countries are known to have increased their gold reserves in March indicating the continuation of a trend now going back more than two years, and one which has been on its own a substantial supporter of the higher gold prices seen over the period. Overall Central Banks appear to have purchased no less than 58 tonnes in the month, which could suggest an acceleration in their increases in holdings if buying at this rate continues throughout the year.
While the majority of these countries only raised their reserves by a very small amount, there were indeed some quite significant purchases – notably from Mexico, which increased its holdings by 16.81 tonnes to a total of 122.58 tonnes; Russia with purchases of 16.55 tonnes giving it total reserves now of 895.75 tonnes; Turkey with 11.48 tonnes taking it to 209.6 tonnes in its reserves. Argentina bought 7 tonnes taking its holdings to 61.74 tonnes, Kazakhstan with 4.3 tonnes – up to 96.16 tonnes and Ukraine with 1.18 tonnes bringing its holding to 29.21 tonnes. A further half dozen countries raised their holdings by increments of less than a tonne.
This, of course, only shows the figures for those nations which are, one assumes, wholly transparent in reporting their gold holdings. There have been some quite sharp ‘upwards adjustments’ in the past from some countries which have been less open in their reporting – notably China which is assumed by most observers to be building its gold reserves strongly over the three years since it last announced an upgrade in its holdings.
The continuing upwards trend in Central Bank purchasing is yet another indicator of unease in the sector about the prospects for those currencies – notably the dollar, the euro, the pound sterling and the Japanese yen – which provide the bulk of their monetary reserves.
European Parliament member Nigel Farage has just warned that the politicians there know Europe will collapse but are unable to figure out a way to tell the public:
There are going to be some serious banking collapses and the impact of that on some sovereign states, will be serious. I’m afraid we’ve gotten to a point where we really can’t stop this now. We’re beginning to reach a stage where however much false money you create, the problem becomes bigger than the people trying to solve it. We are very close to that point.
When I talk about the threats and the risk that this thing could wind up in some kind of rebellion, some sort of awful social cataclysm, they (other European politicians) are now very worried indeed. They will talk to you in private, but in public, nobody dares utter a word.
I think the deterioration, in the last two or three weeks, in the eurozone is very serious indeed. It’s the bond spreads in Italy and Spain. It’s the fact that youth unemployment is now over 50% in some of these Mediterranean countries.
It’s riot and disorder on the streets. And yet a month ago I was here and there was Herman Van Rumpuy telling us, ‘We’ve turned the corner. Everything is solved. There are no more problems with the eurozone.’ What a pack of jokers they look like.”
So hoarding gold or other commodities is a good idea for any country and especially any citizen who realizes the government can’t take care of them.
