Heaven Was Needing An Angel . . .

A true friend of mine and one of the best radio hosts in the country, Ken McClenton from The Exceptional Conservative Show, lost his daughter Charnice to a senseless shooting in Washington, D.C. Wednesday evening.

I ask that my readers remember Ken, his wife and their entire family in your prayers.

My heart breaks for a friend who lost such a beautiful young woman and my heart breaks for an America which sees yet another one of our young people leave us much too soon.

The account of the shooting can be found here.

#FightFor15

Okay, so over on Twitter there is a hashtag for "FightFor15" - all of the lazy ass fast food workers that want to be paid $15 an hour for flipping burgers or dropping a basket of fries in a fryer are clamoring for the minimum wage to be raised nationwide to $15/hour.

So, let's just say that Holger owns a McDonald's franchise - I employee 22 workers at my restaurant.  And let's just say that the federal government mandates that I now pay those employees at least $15 an hour.

Okay, the way I see it, as a business owner, is that there is a significant pool of workers out there who do NOT make $15 an hour - some of them are teachers, some of them are accountants, some of them are IT professionals, some of them are skilled laborers.

So, if I now have to pay $15 an hour to all of my employees at my McDonald's....why would I continue to pay a snot-nosed whiny 18 year old who is habitually late to work, who refuses to stop texting while they work, who doesn't call when he/she isn't going to make it into work and who habitually gets in arguments with other workers?  I wouldn't.  I'd man my restaurant with those teachers and laborers and IT people - i'd raise the average worker age from 18 years old to 35 years old - I'd have people working at my place who show up on time (or a little early), who put in a full day of work, who operate as a team in the restaurant and who are thankful for their paycheck from me and don't whine. 

So for those of you losers who insist on $15/hour...just remember that you aren't all that.  And you WILL be replaced.  Good luck, morons.

Video: How ISIS Took Ramadi

This is a longer video but forward to 3:10 and you will see an ISIS vehicle come into the picture as it tries to near the location where these Ramadi police are making a stand.  The police know full well what is coming at them and you will hear the frantic firing of their weapons as it nears. Wait for it.

And you now know just how ISIS took Ramadi.

It's the VBIEDs.
