Ron Black Radio
Gentle reader:
Tik-Tok
Quickly: for those of you that think that China, who doesn't give their own people constitutional rights, and limits time and content on the app in their own country deserve a first amendment right to OWN an app that our state and federal governments won't even allow on government-owned devices, you have a serious problem. You are aiding and abetting the Chinese government in undermining our nation from the inside. Most wolves come as sheep. This wolf comes as a wolf and some in our conservative community don't want to force the CCP's divestment. Before he recently opposed the effort, Trump supported the effort as President. Now he doesn't because he's mad at Facebook. But Facebook is under our national authority, and Tik-Tok refuses to turn over any data that they keep on Chinese servers.
No, let tik-tok continue to send inappropriate material to our sons and daughters while they take their data and plan their quiet revolution. The camel's nose is under the tent. Time to cut it off.
For years, the 400-Pound Gorilla
was on WKY Radio in OKC, and then continued his opinions on the website ronblackradio.com. Go back and read some of his thoughts. We're going to reprint one of them in a minute. You'll notice our emails look a lot like Ron's writing. Maybe he's one of us. Maybe we just emulate him. Either way, we're big fans.
Ron is a transplant survivor.
He's seen some things. Been through some things. And now he has leukemia. That's some shit. We're praying for him.
So when some of you reached out
after our last two emails whining about our thoughts, we felt like maybe we needed to clarify: We don't hate Trump. We voted for him last week. We do hate Ryan Walters. Sorry not sorry.
Trump has definitely given us some policy wins. We like that. It's the cult of personality that follows him combined with the belief that he'll continue what he did his first four years. He's said some loud things to suggest he won't. But because many of you think he's a savior, you'll go along with him anyway.
In 2015, Ron published
an article that made us think about the current state of things with Trump, and that the phenomenon may just not be as new as we had considered. We hope you find Ron's thoughts from NINE years ago as interesting as we did.:
What's Good for President Bush is Good for President Obama
There is a solid argument for mandatory military service in this country and it is evidenced by the hatred and anger about our President. Military service would show these miscreants how disrespecting the office of the POTUS is, and always will be, uncalled for and our children are learning from us that it's okay.
Future generations are learning right here and right now that virtually every form of authority is a bad thing and should be defied and defamed. It used to be an issue of the far left and some of the borderline anarchist views of life. But then, America elected a President named "Obama," and it was like an open invitation to be asses.
Think about this...
Law enforcement is questioned at every turn about their tactics and efforts to stop the bad guys from doing bad things. There are always going to be a handful of jackasses on the force who do not play by the rules and they should be (and are) dealt with decisively. Now, children from families on both sided of the aisle have a disdain for the men and women who awaken every day, willing to kill or be killed to make our communities safe. They do a job that 90% of the population would piss their pants even attempting.
Teachers are another segment of our population that is disrespected and their authority questioned. Our children's teachers are the first leaders they experience in a social environment. The extreme right believes that teachers are overpaid and the rest of the universe feel as though they should be paid a hell of a lot more than they are right now. After all, they are overseeing the education of a generation of self-important, spoiled, entitled, and petulant little brats on a daily basis. The kids active up in class are doing so because parents are too bloody lazy to be proactive.
POTUS. When "W" was president, the conservatives gnashed their teeth and ran around in sackcloth and ashes when anyone spoke ill of the president; going so far as to call people "unpatriotic" who didn't support the most expensive "war" ever waged by the United States. When liberals brow beat former president Bush, conservatives and neoconservatives alike lost their damned minds. Now that we have an African-American, Democrat president, the same hypocrites who bitched about the criticism of President Bush are ripping President Obama to shreds. Glenn Beck, the talk show host who is most likely certifiably insane, has said that the President was "delusional" or the "dumbest sonofabitch on the planet." His blatant disrespect of the president of the United States is deplorable and anyone who approves of that kind of rhetoric should not listened to under any circumstance. As a man who stood a post, I am offended by the people who are offended by the fact our president is black, and liberal.
The defense of the office of the President should apply across the board no matter who is in the Oval Office. The office itself commands the respect of the American people and I don't give a damn who holds the office. Conservatives who are bitching about the president now were the same people who wanted to arrest and detain the left for "treasonous acts." The hypocrisy climbs to such heights these days that even the Space Shuttle couldn't keep up.
So, the next time you read commentary from someone spewing bile against the POTUS, ask them how they would feel if Reagan or Bush were insulted in the same manner.
We can disagree with a policy platform without being an ass about it. We can dislike a president's viewpoints but never is it appropriate to disrespect the man personally because to do so is to defile the office itself.
We should know better; and before you accuse me of being a liberal or anything else for that matter because I am defending the office of the POTUS, go stand a post and get back to me.
Just my opinion and I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt it.
"Gorilla"
