REMEMBERING RUBY RIDGE


31 years ago yesterday, a man was walking down a trail through the woods with a 9-year-old neighbor's son and the boys dog, on a hunting trip.

Two men jumped out from the Honda tree and yelled at them, prompting the dog to take and charge at the man. One of the men shot the boy's dog and the boy shot at the man and they returned fire killing him. A firefight between the man and the other two men erupted and which one of the two men were killed...

The two men from behind the tree did not have uniforms on did not flash badges and did not identify themselves.

Thus began a 10-day standoff at Ruby Ridge... Which also exposed the criminality of the Federal Bureau Investigation and the BATF.

During the standoff, FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi shot Weaver's wife Vicki while she was holding her baby daughter

When the dust had settled... Randy Weaver was exonerated from all charges including the charges of missing his court date... And was given a multi-million dollar settlement from the US government for the death of his son and his wife who was actually murdered by a sniper employed by the FBI.

Looking back today, we see that this was the first really open terrorist act committed by the FBI, as the gloves came off and the United States government began to show its real face... Today we know that the United States government is nothing more than an organized crime family given a certain territory and the pharmaceutical industry is nothing but drug cartels that were allowed to operate within certain jurisdictions in the whole thing works as long as every crew picks up to the next level all the way up to the United Nations and then to the 13 families.

I'm volunteer tutoring some high school students in #math at the local library.

I want to make it engaging for them, so I'm thinking about gamifying it. Any ideas? I'd prefer not to do individual rankings.

I was thinking maybe something TTRPG-like, where a character's success on beating the enemy depends on how many kids show up, what questions they bring to the tutoring session, and how well they engage. Struggling to work out the details though.

Thoughts?

THE AGENDA

Paying Attention?

THE JEW wants "white people gone".

PERIOD!!!

This week's donation was to the Nitrux project. Nitrux is a Linux distro that is based off Debian and uses it's own desktop called NX Desktop which is based off KDE Plasma. It has no package manager and uses App Images instead although you can also use Flatpaks and setup other programs if need be. Nitrux uses OpenRC for it's init system, the Liquorix Kernel, and uses the EXT4 file system. It's a unique distro that is worth a look.

The main website for the project is here:

nxos.org/

The source code is avaialble on Github:

github.com/Nitrux

The project has a presence on Mastodon:

mastodon.cloud/@ Nitrux_NX

If you wish to help the project financially they accept donations through Open Collective and Ko-fi:

Oregon Taxpaying Residents are being discriminated against by the very government they elected, in favor of Illegals.

This is what will happen in all Democrat run communities. This is what Kamala/Walz wants to do.

Be angry and stand up to this BS!😡🤬
