Dear NFL “Protesters” – Where do I even begin?

Here we go again; righteousness done poorly is overcome by stupidity done well.

Over the prior weekend, the NFL went toe-to-toe with the American culture at large. Player after player, and team after team, condoned and encouraged the corruption of a pious gesture. Coach after coach, owner after owner, and the League itself openly cast their once proud “Super Bowl World Champion” heritage down to pettiness. Why? Because their hurt feelings were more important than their heritage and the foundation upon which that heritage rests.

That’s right! Grown men that handsomely profit from the promotion of a childhood game took it upon themselves to behave like brats in the name of righteousness. In doing so, they dishonored themselves, their teams, their League, their fans, and their sport; they dishonored their names, their families, and those that built the ivory tower upon which they sit; they dishonored a time American unity, symbols of that unity, and (by extension) Americans themselves. – It just goes to show that the saying is true, “Stupid is, as stupid does.”

Dear NFL Protesters – Even though you are formerly educated, in possession of extraordinary fitness, and are gainfully employed you still lack intelligence, mental capacity to think for yourself, and humility personifying gratitude. – The belief that you represent the voices of the oppressed because you feel that one man offended you is stupid. – The belief that your conduct couldn’t be understood in any other way than team cohesion is stupid. – The belief that the use of a rude and widely unpopular gesture makes you righteous champions of social justice is stupid.

Dear NFL Protesters – In a single weekend you successfully remade yourselves into the newest personification of the problems and attitudes that you claim to be resisting.

Here We Go Again

This past weekend, a number of NFL players, coaches, owners, etc. choose to “take a knee” or refused to take the field during the customary pre-game playing of the national anthem. This behavior was deemed to be fitting and acceptable in order to demonstrate integrity while drawing attention to social injustice.[1]

NOTE: POTUS Comments: While the comments of POTUS are part of the events of the weekend, those comments fall outside the scope and purpose of this article.

NOTE: Right to Speech: While speech is an American right, and an important factor of the events of the weekend, this line of discussion falls outside the scope and purpose of this article. [2]

Historical Framing – Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid

In 2016, Colin Kaepernick, former San Francisco 49ers quarterback, started protests by sitting on the bench during the US national anthem. [3] At that time, it seemed clear that Kaepernick intended his gesture to be a mechanism for drawing attention to police brutality and social injustice. [4]

“People are dying in vain because this country isn't holding their end of the bargain up as far as, you know, giving freedom and justice and liberty to everybody.” ^[5]

“People don't realize what's really going on in this country. There are a lot things that are going on that are unjust. People aren't being held accountable for. And that's something that needs to change. That's something that this country stands for: freedom, liberty and justice for all.” ^[6]

“Once again, I’m not anti-American,” Kaepernick said. “I love America. I love people. That’s why I’m doing this. I want to help make America better. I think having these conversations helps everybody have a better understanding of where everybody is coming from.” [7]

Kaepernick, in a moment of clarity, rightfully broadened his message to include politics and challenged the integrity of the electorate. – Bravo!

“We have a presidential candidate who's deleted emails and done things illegally and is a presidential candidate. That doesn't make sense to me, because if that was any other person, you'd be in prison. So what is this country really standing for?” [8]

However, poor messaging choices made social-political space for his aims to be recast as malicious intent.

Beginning July 2015, Kaepernick began promoting Black Nationalist and Black Lives Matter material on his social media platform.[9]

“I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color.” [10]

One of his leading advocates, Nessa Daib (his girlfriend at that time) posted on Twitter, “Please take the time to UNDERSTAND what he is saying…” versus actually explaining what we were meant to understand.[11]

What Kaepernick likely intended for doing good (restoring freedom, liberty, and justice for all) was transformed into ridicule and mockery.

Weekend Framing – Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid

Now, more than a year later, the messaging has changed again. Now, “taking a knee” is a symbol of America-hating and gross disrespect to Americans at large, especially our warrior dead. However, there are some that disagree with this observation.

Let’s suppose that I’m off-base and out-of-touch. Let’s suppose that all of this messaging and behavior is actually a clear and defined protest against the treatment of black and non-white people. Now, with all of this in mind, let’s address some simple questions:

What’s changed?

• ·         Do black lives matter more than before?
• ·         Are black communities better off than before?
• ·         Are legal statues being rewritten to remove bad law?
• ·         Is unemployment any better?
• ·         Is black-on-black crime being reduced?
• ·         Is black crime (villain or victim) being reduced?
• ·         Is the black abortion rate declining?
• ·         Is the dropout rate of black students in decline?
• ·         Are more black entrepreneurs being underwritten and financed?

What’s being done to make things better?

• ·         Are blacks voting in greater numbers?
• ·         Are black business owners offering testimony and advice to lawmakers?
• ·         Are more blacks becoming police officers?
• ·         Are more blacks seeking elected office?
• ·         Are more blacks petitioning for legislation?

It’s been more than a year sense Kaepernick brought all of this to the forefront.

• ·         Where’s the message of unity?
• ·         Where’s the doctrine of virtue?

It’s been a year.

Hateful Righteousness – Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid

I'm not opposed to purposeful protesting. – Peaceful protesting for a good and grand purpose is an American thing to do.

I’m not opposed to identification of wrong-doing. – If rights are to be restored, then wrongs must be clearly identified.

I am opposed to the notion that the American way of life is inherently corrupt and fundamentally evil. – These “protesters” want all Americans, everywhere, to believe their entire heritage and living memory is inherently evil, wicked, immoral, foul, horrible, disgusting, and corrupt because they cannot bring themselves to stand for an oppressive nation. Really?

How am I supposed to take them seriously when their messaging is egregious and shamelessly vicious?

·         If racism is real, then fairness and tolerance must be equally real.

·         If white privilege is real, then black disadvantage must be equally real.

·         If oppression is real, then liberation must be equally real.

·         If fear is real, then confidence must be equally real.

·         If resistance is real, then assistance must be equally real.

How am I supposed to agree with them when their messaging is incomplete (at best) and dishonest (at worst)?

·         They are athletes. They are celebrities. And, they want me to believe or agree that they are experts on oppression because they are professional football players?

·         They are professional football players. They are exclusive members of a well equipped and empowered team. And, they want me to believe or agree that they are experts in systemic oppression that is America itself?

How am I supposed to accept their claims while disregarding their presentation: as if speaking something aloud makes it so for everyone?

·         How can they talk about the complexities of American society, but never acknowledge that the same society is complex enough that others can read the same evidence and arrive at a different conclusion?

·         How can they proclaim to find it hard to believe that others could honestly and intelligently come to a different conclusion than themselves?

How am I supposed to accept their morality and judgment as prudent and wise?

·         What is the source of their moral authority?

·         Who made them moral givers?

Bottom Line

Dear NFL Protesters – You cannot lift up America to new levels by tearing down all of America to your depths. You, and those around you, are the beneficiaries of those Americans that addressed segregation, civil rights, voting rights, and the nonsense of Jim Crow laws long before you were thought to be a good idea. In doing so, they did what they did, fought as they fought, and died as they died so that everyone could benefit in ways that they could never have foreseen. – It’s time for you to master your own nature and build on the hard fought virtues of our American past.

At some point each American, without exception, must choose to identify with what is graceful, virtuous, and good or with what is evil, vicious, and bad. You cannot be a righteous champion by having it both ways.

Viciousness is a human failing, but virtue is a human triumph. Both are ever-present simply because human beings exist. Both represent the desire of human nature to cultivate thoughts, make decisions, and take action on those decisions. But, it’s not human nature that puts failings and triumphs into the world; it’s individual human beings.

Feminism Sucks! – Liberty Rocks!

By Sam Frescoe

http://samfrescoeproject.blogspot.com/

#SamFrescoe #feminism #feminist

On 12 Sep 2017, a group of Duke University feminists took it upon themselves to cry foul because they were systemically oppressed by the existence of all things masculine. – I just can’t make this up. Right now, in 21^st century America, at a major university, there is a group of children disguised as adults that believe they are being systematically oppressed by the existence of all things they deem masculine. That’s right; there is an entire segment of the American population that claims griever status because masculinity is inherently evil. – My God, do their fathers know?!

I must admit, that while at university it DID cross my mind that chemistry, calculus, and ancient English literature were oppressive; but, it NEVER crossed my mind to feel upset because of the mere existence of another person. – Dear God in Heaven, these so-called-champions of righteousness have their heads shoved so far up their backsides that they can see daylight in the dark of night.

Dear college feminists: Even though you are formally educated you still lack intelligence. The belief that you are oppressed because the natural delineation of manly and womanly nature (which has existed for thousands of years and to your benefit…you are alive today) is inherently corrupt. – You must be nucking futs crazy.

Here We Go Again

The Women’s Center at Duke University claims that they initiated the Duke Men’s Project as a way to call men into conversations about feminism and gender oppression. While reviewing their published materials, I made a number of observations that seem noteworthy. If you wish to read about the Center or its Project, then there are links listed immediately after this article.

Their Claims – My Translations

CLAIM: The Duke Men’s Project is an initiative to call men in to conversations about feminism and gender oppression. To this end, the Project offers two options: 1) a nine-week Learning Community to unpack expressions of masculinity through a feminist lens; 2) larger talks for all genders to engage in conversations linked to masculinity, male privilege, pornography, rape culture, male privilege, men taking up space, and emotional labor.[1] 

TRANSLATION: The Duke Men’s Project is about reinforcing the fallacy that men (collectively) are responsible for social, political, and economic violence inflicted on women (et al). The intent of the Women’s Center is to demonize all men.

CLAIM: Men doing gender equity work operate with a very specific set of privileges. Such men have a dual role as they are equipped with knowledge and perspective to be able to engage in: 1) gender equity work; 2) activism in a constructive way that acknowledges their privilege. The  Duke Men’s Project is a space that remains accountable to the great work women and non-male-identified activists and thinkers; and honors and respects the legacy and scholarship that men doing this work invariably benefit from that work. [2]

TRANSLATION: Men promoting third-wave feminism are granted special status by feminists after they forfeit whatever those feminists deemed inappropriately masculine. This requires men to voluntarily: 1) accept feminists as morally righteous persons; 2) subordinate their beliefs to the feminist world view; 3) advocate the idea that being masculine is inherently bad/immoral/viscous.

CLAIM: The Duke Men's Project is an initiative sponsored by the Duke Women's Center to increase male allyship in gender equity and gender violence prevention. [3] The Center claims to promote a campus culture that ensures the full participation and agency of women students at Duke. [4] The Center believes in systemic, patriarchal oppression.[5] The Center seeks to promote social justice, Womanist and feminist values, community activism, cultural-shifting, and collective action.[6]

TRANSLATION: The Duke Women's Center is socially and politically weak. Thus, the Center must have the allegiance of men to bolster their presence on the Duke campus. The cost of entry into this arrangement is to be subordinate feminist masters. Additionally, even thought the Center is sanctioned of Duke University and enjoys its protection,[7] the Center demonizes the University by declaring a general state of systemic, patriarchal oppression on the campus. – To bite the hand that feeds you is stupid.

In my view, the Duke Women’s Center is motivated by the desire to secure social-political legitimacy and power in order to exercise their intent to: 1) expand, augment, and control all things and ideas deemed feminine; 2) diminish, deny, or destroy all things and ideas deemed masculine. – Simply stated, the Center is motivated by emotions (rivalry, envy, jealousy, revenge, pride) in a demand for recognition.

In my view, the Duke Women’s Center, through the Duke Men's Project, seeks to demonize any person deemed unacceptably masculine under the guise of compassion and empathy. The Center wants you to believe that the actions of some (individual men that commit crimes against women) warrant the condemnation of all that is masculine (an entire collection of groups, ideas, and views). Those that advocate, support, or condone such a stance seek to appeal to prejudice (sex/gender) in order to adversely stereotype those that dissent from their views. – By definition, this is discrimination ^[8] and is unjust.

In this case, those responsible for the existence of feminist sexism at Duke include at least the following: the Duke University administration; the Duke VP of Student Affairs; the Men’s Engagement Intern (a Duke-paid employee); those involved with hiring the Intern; those associated with the Duke Women’s Center; volunteering male-identified students; and those that ignore, condone, excuse, deny, or encourage such behavior.

Back to Reality – Don’t Drink the Kool-Aid

False Flag – The Center wants you to believe that because there are men (individuals) that do commit acts of brutal force against women (individuals), that all men (collectively) are inherently oppressive to all women (collectively). Thus, all men are to be feared. Therefore, all women are in need of a “rescuer” (Duke Women’s Center) against oppression brought forth by the existence of men. This view is further reinforced by psychological manipulation (Duke Men’s Project) in order to further public compliance. Therefore, the Duke Women’s Center presents a “false flag” when it claims femininity is oppressed by masculinity because specific individuals demonstrated criminal behavior.

Authority – The acceptance of the Duke Women’s Center by Duke University is significant. Due to the fact that the University has a local monopoly over the determination of justice, the Center is bolstered as a legitimate agency within the university social fabric.

The Dilemma of Anti-Discrimination – The Duke Women’s Center envisions that inequality of human kind can be corrected through equal outcomes, to include feelings. However, because people are inherently different, their performance and choices and feelings are also different. Therefore, reality does not match vision. Disregarding the fact that there is no society in which this reality is false, the Center seeks to restructure Duke University by introducing “victims” while denouncing dissent as examples of oppression. At this point, intent trumps merit. In turn, messaging promotes claims of privilege, safe spaces, systemic patriarchy, and variations of political correctness.

False Liberalism – To characterize the actions and attitudes of the Duke Women’s Center as liberal would be to promote a falsehood. The ends of liberalism are life and property, and its means are liberty and toleration. Clearly, the Duke Women’s Center is not interested in either liberty or toleration, and quite willing to permit the subjugation of others, though it may be voluntary.

Morality – If you are willing to do demonize men for being masculine, then why aren’t you willing to be demonized as women for being feminine?

Logical Fallacies – Just because an individual could do something, does NOT mean that a similar collective actually did that something. – The conclusion of the Center that masculinity is bad/immoral/viscous does not necessarily follow from the fact that individual men behaved badly/immorally/viscously.

Political Calculus – Concerning the political economy of Duke University, the Duke Women’s Center believes that aggravating secondary effects (resentment of masculinity) is more profitable than reducing primary concerns (criminal behavior perpetrated by anyone).

Taken together, the Duke Women’s Center, an institution, and Duke University, an institution, sanction and promote doctrines and strategies that arbitrarily devalue men (collectively) on the basis of perceived masculinity. This activity is: 1) done openly and with the full knowledge and consent of Center leadership and University authority; 2) done outside the merits and behaviors of those individuals being discriminated against. Therefore, the Duke Women’s Center and Duke University are engaged in sexism.

Shoe on the Other Foot

Still don’t believe me…perhaps repurposing feminist messaging with a male/masculine voice can help. [9]

Women’s Project

The Women’s Project is an initiative to call women into conversations about masculinism and gender oppression. It aims to create a space of sisterhood and fellowship dedicated to interrogating female privilege and matriarchy as it exists in our lives, our community, and our society. Our intention is to rework current narratives of femininity for a healthier alternative; one that is inclusive, equitable and positive. There is a misinformed narrative that gender equity and masculinism hurts women, but through conversations on the limits of femininity and healthy alternatives we demonstrate that women have much to gain.

The Women’s Project facilitates a nine-week Learning Community, where a group of 15 female persons unpack expressions of femininity through a masculinist lens. The Learning Community discusses femininity while understanding how it exists under multiple spheres of oppression (like matriarchy, traditional marriage, the nuclear family, emotional self-control, personal responsibility, and divorce culture). We also hold larger talks and discussions for all genders to engage with conversations that are linked to femininity and female privilege. Past events have focused on promiscuity and divorce culture, female privilege, women taking up space, and gender disparities in the ability to do physical labor.

Women doing gender equity work operate with a very specific set of privileges, often referred to as the “glass elevator” effect. Thus, the Women’s Project is a space that remains accountable to the great work men and non-female-identified activists and thinkers have been doing for decades. Our space is one that honors and respects the legacy and scholarship that women doing this work invariably benefit from the work done. Such a beneficiary is permitted a dual role: 1) to equip women with the knowledge and perspective to be able to engage in gender equity work; 2) to engage in activism that constructively acknowledges female privilege.

The Women's Project is an initiative sponsored by the Men's Center to increase female allyship in gender equity and gender violence prevention.

Bottom Line

Dear Feminists: You cannot lift women up to new levels by tearing men down to your depths. You, and the men and women around you, are the beneficiaries of those Americans that addressed women’s suffrage, voting rights, and civil liberties long before you were a good idea. In doing so, they did what they did, fought as they fought, and died as they died so that everyone could benefit in ways that they could never have foreseen. – It’s time to count your blessings, embrace the goodness of human nature, and attend to the privilege of higher learning.

Sexism – The Duke Women’s Center, and the Duke Men’s Project, promote sexism.

• -       Fact: The Duke Women’s Center perceives sex/gender classification as masculine and feminine.
• -       Fact: The Duke Women’s Center perceives sex/gender stratification as “that which is masculine” to be inherently inferior to “that which is feminine.”
• -       Fact: The Duke Women’s Center promotes policies, principles, and guidelines (doctrine) that prescribe sex/gender classification and stratification.
• -       Fact: The Duke Women’s Center is engaged in plans, approaches, and schemes (strategy) that prescribe sex/gender classification and stratification.
• -       Motive: The Duke Women’s Center believes that masculinity oppresses femininity. The Center feels the perceived oppression to be real and manifest in a systemic patriarchy. Therefore, the oppression of the first compels action against the second.
• -       Intent: The Duke Women’s Center aims to convince men to voluntarily limit, subjugate, or abandon their masculinity in exchange for the benefit of being redeemed in the eyes of the Center.
• -       Institutionalization: The Duke Women’s Center is an administration sponsored and recognized agency that dedicates resources to realize its motive according to its intent.
• -       Normalization: Because Duke University accepts the Duke Women’s Center as a means of enhancing the “intellectual, social, cultural and physical development of students” in order for students to “demonstrate personal and social responsibility,”  the Duke Women’s Center enjoys a normalized relationship with the campus authority.

Police Misconduct – Our Republic; A Nation of Laws

By Sam Frescoe

samfrescoe@gmail.com

http://samfrescoeproject.blogspot.com/

The Sam Frescoe Project

#SamFrescoe

On 2 Sep 2017, the public became aware of the actions of a Salt Lake City Detective.

https://youtu.be/kWtY8MEJgBY

https://www.facebook.com/shaunking/videos/1528759813829598/

In my view, the actions of the Detective are completely unacceptable at all levels (his singular actions are not excusable); however, the actions of the Nurse are completely commendable at all levels (she singular actions must be heralded for all to hear, see, and learn).

So What?

This is why…

-       The Constitution matters – It’s our supreme law that protects your rights by restricting the government and its actors.

-       The Fourth Amendment matters – When the 4A states “persons” it means our bodies in their entirety.

-       Criminal Law matters – The Detective battered the nurse.

-       Civil Law matters – The Detective battered the nurse.

-       Civil Rights matter – Failure to execute due process of law.

Bottom Line

America is a REPUBLIC for this very reason; rights by law matter.

America is NOT a democracy; privileges by brute strength are not rights.

Going Forward – A Solution

The just role of government is to nullify the aggressor and restore the rights of the defender.

SOLUTION-1: Restore the just rights of the nurse. Drop all charges. Pay all losses to wages, legal fees, and court costs. Ensure her privileges are fully reinstated at her place of employment.

SOLUTION-2: (Local Actions) Actor-1 must be punished in proportion to his willful violations: 1) remove his law enforcement credentials indefinitely; 2) terminate his employment indefinitely (includes all pays, allowances, benefits, retirements, pensions, policies, and privileges).

SOLUTION-3: (Local Actions) Actor-2 and Actor-3 are to be reprimanded for failure to act. This should result in a reduction in pay for one year and ineligibility for promotion for two years.

SOLUTION-4: (State Actions) Actor-1 must be charged, arrested, and tried for battery under criminal law. If convicted, then the maximum punishment must be attached and executed.

SOLUTION-5: (State Actions) Actor-1 must stand trial for battery under civil/tort law. If found negligent, then the maximum monetary judgment must be attached (up to the full value of his home and estate to include all insurance policies).

SOLUTION-6: (Federal Actions) Actor-1 must stand trial for violation of civil rights of the nurse.

SOLUTION-7: (Federal, State, Local Action) Present a medal, of appropriate honor, onto the nurse with full citation noted courage, bravery, and steadfastness.

LAW-1: "In order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers...restrictive clauses" are added (Bill of Rights, Preamble)...“The right of the people to be secure in their persons…against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” (US Constitution, 4A)

LAW-2: In criminal law, a physical act that results in harmful or offensive contact with another's person without that person's consent. (General Definition, https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/battery)

LAW-3: In tort law, the intentional causation of harmful or offensive contact with another's person without that person's consent. (General Definition, https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/battery)

FACT-1: Actor-1, a police detective, knowingly violated Law-1, Law-2, and Law-3 without cause. Actor-1, having been shown the law and local agreement of authorities failed to discharge his duties in accordance with the agreement, the law, and the Constitution; thus, willfully elected to violate his oath of office and sacred public trust. Evidence as shown by body-cam video and witnesses present.

FACT-2: Actor-2 and Actor-3 (standing in close proximity to the event), both uniformed officers, having witnessed violation of Law-1, Law-2, and Law-3 may have neglected their duty to uphold the law and keep the peace; thus, may be in violation of their oath of office and sacred public trust.

FACT-3: The nurse executed her duties to the fullest extent possible and while under duress.
