“ENFORCING ILLEGAL ORDERS”
by OPOVV, ©2020
(Apr. 20, 2020) — A US NAVY destroyer is tied-up at the pier and two sailors are having a conversation on an upper level of the ship. What do you say we listen in?
“Wanna make a bet?”
“Sure; what do you want to bet on?”
“So we moved into a duplex and our side has an oak tree, right over the parking spot. So here’s the bet: I bet everything under the sun falls out of oak trees; like you have your bird stuff and feathers, leaves, twigs, pollen, spiders, caterpillars, seeds, seed shells, everything under the sun.”
“What about whales?”
“Whales?”
“Those things that you find in the ocean, like in one of those Star Trek movies.”
“You know something? I’ve never seen a whale in person, have you?”
“Do Orcas count?”
“No.”
“Then I haven’t seen a whale, either.”
“Then you owe me five bucks.”
“Who says? Wait, before you make excuses, quantum mechanics states that a whale is going to fall out of an oak tree, maybe even my oak tree, so it’s a wash; we’re even.”
“Whales and wash makes for a bad pun, which automatically carries a double penalty, which is, as you know, $10: pay up.”
“How about cops handing out fines for in-your-car churchgoers?”
“Quantum mechanics.”
“How about banning the sale of seeds?”
“Seeds?”
“Seeds, like in corn, carrots, cucumbers and tomatoes.”
“Now you’ve gone too far: another ten. If seeds aren’t planted in the spring, when do they expect to plant them?”
“Next spring.”
“Next spring? So starve this winter?”
“You know, I’ve lost all the respect I ever had for the police, I mean in the sanctuary cities.”
“And states.”
“And states.”
“Let me ask you this: why don’t the cops arrest the mayors and governors for breaking the law; can you tell me that? How about government armbands for permission to enter grocery stores? How about the Star of David and the Christian Cross sewn on the outside of shirts and jackets? How about the cops standing by and watching it all go down? How about the cops and the GESTAPO being one and the same: enforcing illegal orders?”
“Because they value their continued employment more than they value their Constitution, that’s why.”
“Is that sad, or what?”
“So the cops actually wrote the parishioners in Mississippi $500 tickets? Is that for real?”
“And it has been said that it was the mayor who scattered the nails in the church parking lot.”
“And the cops went along with it? Why?”
“Money; they probably each got overtime and split all the $500 fines.”
“So the crooks of today are the mayors and the cops who support the Deep State. You know what? If a history book of the United States is ever written, then Nancy Pelosi will be the Wicked Witch of the West. I’ve heard that part of the $25 million that was given to the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts made its way into the DNC’s coffers.”
“Hey, will you just look at the time.”
“I see: time for a break.”
FINI
[If we don’t get a grip on these out-of-control mayors and governors, and if we really don’t let the police know that we are really dissatisfied with them for not upholding the law, then some folks better start paying attention, and that’s for real. And isn’t it interesting that the Democrats’ website shows the very people that they’ve lied to for decades?]
