For equity’s sake, I hope the perpetrators are caught and released immediately. Law enforcement should not be involved in cultural issues.

In olden days martial arts classes taught by our fifth degree black belt instructor, well motivated students would take up various traditional weapons, some traditional farming implements of the Far East, and try to master them. Many wins in regional and state martial arts competitions resulted for our martial arts school. Bruce Lee's famous nunchaku mastery was taught him by his friend Dan Inosanto, who specialized in Okinawan kobudo and karate, and also excelled in Korean hapkido and eskrima. For weapons in our classes we practiced with and employed many objects. Twin 24" Kali sticks were used. So were 6' bo staffs (bong in Korean), single or double nunchakus ... eventually we get to edged weapons such as knives or daggers, single or double. My specialty (long ago) was double machetes! To master such weapons, you do a lot of practice with similar shaped non-edged weapons, faster and faster. The real stuff has to be mastered slowly, deliberately, or else you might hurt yourself. Same as with nunchakus, you slowly build up to self-defense or tournament speed. With enough practice, you can develop an effective and unexpected defense capability. Once in an exhibition I saw a martial arts master perform a hyung (kata) with two knives whirled around in figure-8 and other movementsalmost too quick to see. I asked my instructor Sah Bum Nim how one would defend against such an attacker. He said, "Run!" Or better still, gun.

Three men in blue jeans...no more of a description? One would think that they could have at least said look for a White man carrying a machete, Hispanic, or God forbid, a Black man. People might have a better idea of who to look for instead of seeing every man as a potential machete wielding hacker in Times Square. Naturally, by the pictures of the suspects who were arrested, it was exactly who we all know who it would be. Wonder if they are illegals who will quickly be released to disappear forever.

The NYPD is taking no chances with Sunday’s Israel Day Parade in Midtown Manhattan, ordering cops to arrest any protesters without hesitation if they cross the police perimeter. An internal police memo obtained by The Post shows that New York’s Finest are being ordered to bust any intruders on the parade route for trespassing but being careful not to violate protesters’ free speech. “Any spectator who attempts to enter the frozen zone between the barriers or who attempts to go on to the parade route must be immediately arrested for trespass,” the memo said.

An unusual politician came to former President Donald Trump’s defense after a Manhattan jury found him guilty of falsifying business records in a sham trial. Republican Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) criticized progressive Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for politically persecuting the former president. Romney, a long-time Trump critic, accused Bragg of committing “political malpractice,” arguing that the case should have been settled without a trial. “Bragg should have settled the case against Trump, as would have been the normal procedure.

On Thursday, President Trump was convicted on felony charges for a made-up crime in a kangaroo court led by a corrupt judge. This comes at a time when a leading Democrat is aggressively pushing to strip him of Security Service protection, Fox News reported. The Gateway Pundit reported last month that Rep.

The audio recordings of the interview Special Counsel Robert Hur conducted with Joe Biden stemming from his investigation into whether the president mishandled classified documents remain under lock and key. Biden invoked executive privilege, abusing that power like his former boss, Barack Obama, when he was pressed over documents relating to the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal involving the ATF. The reasoning behind the refusal was already troubling, with Attorney General Merrick Garland essentially saying that the Justice Department could ignore subpoenas they find disagreeable. Now, they’re saying artificial intelligence could alter the audio recordings (via Politico):

Shocking footage has emerged showing a gigantic 'shantytown' that has sprung up in Oakland, as the California city's slide into crime-ravaged squalor continues. Michael Oxford, the host of CaliBased, posted a video on May 31 of massive temporary houses built along service roads that open up into main roads in Hooverville, Oakland. The footage showed trash strewn around scores of houses that were built of wood, tarp and other discarded materials. Particularly shocking was just how large the 'shantytown' is, with a lengthy stretch of road in the Bay Area city covered with the makeshift dwellings.

Vance (R-OH) said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday, warning that he does not believe this will be “good for them” — the Democrats — in the end. “The whole idea of this thing is they don’t want to talk about inflation. They don’t want to talk about the border. They don’t want to talk about war all over the world because it’s a disaster, and Biden doesn’t want to take responsibility for it,” Vance, a possible Trump running mate, said.

Former President Donald Trump may be banned from the United Kingdom, Canada, and other countries should his felony conviction hold up. Last week, a 12-person jury in Manhattan found the former president guilty on 34 counts for falsifying records to pay off porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election. The former president will likely appeal his conviction, which may or may not be overturned before the November election. Should the former president win the election before the conviction could be overturned, certain countries would have to make an exception if he were to visit on official business.

If you do any amount of movie or TV series streaming via Netflix, Prime or other channels, you may have noticed a truly annoying trend of loud, inappropriate songs in the background of what you’re watching. The singers are almost always bad and the lyrics almost always totally wrong for the content of the movie or series you're watching. I was watching a murder-mystery thriller movie on Prime and suddenly a soundtracker bursts into loud, raucous songs about something utterly unrelated to the plot. I have noticed this trend mostly in the last five years but lately, it has been enough to make me hit the mute button.

We now know that the three extant JFK autopsy skull X-rays in the National Archives collection are forgeries, altered to mask evidence of two frontal headshots. The evidence for this proposition is thoroughly presented in a new book, The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy: The Final Analysis, which I have recently published with Dr. David W. Mantik, M.D., Ph.D. Armed with a Ph.D. in physics and a medical practice extending over five decades as a radiation oncologist, Dr. Mantik has seen the JFK autopsy skull X-rays more than anyone else. Using a densitometer, he measured the light coming through the X-rays millimeter-by-millimeter (with some measurements at a tenth-of-a-millimeter calibration).
