Left Wing Mob Hurl Feces at Kosher Cafe in LA

by 2 Comments

The Democrat party are not just Socialists. They are Stalinists, a political  lynch mob who seek to destroy anyone who does not agree with their radical ideology.

Consider this: Asher Shalom, a successful Los Angeles businessman, opens a kosher restaurant in Boyle Heights—an economically depressed neighborhood—and a leftist mob pelts his business with feces because he Tweeted support for President Trump.

This kind of behavior is not just tolerated by the Democrat leadership but encouraged. When Democrats and the lapdog media label President Trump racist, fascist, Hitler, and now traitor, obviously those millions of Americans who voted for and support the President are outside the pale and deserve to be treated like, well… like Jews facing the Inquisition.

“I have not been that wise. Health I have taken for granted. Love I have demanded, perhaps too much and too often. As for money, I have only realized its true worth when I didn't have it.” —Hedy Lamarr

Yesterday, Karen and I made a trip to a local mall.

On our way to the Apple store we passed a skin-care salon. Standing in the doorway was an elegant young man who handed a free sample to Karen. We said thank you, and the young man, an Israeli who spotted my yarmulke, said, “Shalom.”

I said: “Shalom, shalom, ve-ayn shalom.”

The Blue Boy, by Thomas Gainsborough.

Wandering around my beautiful neighborhood recently, I’ve noticed lots of blue.

Always on the lookout for compelling Friday Photos, I decided that blue would be a fun theme. And then, once I made that decision, all I saw was blue: blue cars, blue buildings — you name it, it’s blue. I suppose the same thing would happen if I decided on green, red or — I dunno — pink?

Anyhoo.

More blue.

Buster Keaton and Dorothy Sebastian line up their shots, 1929.

Hypothetical question: Your house is on fire. Everyone is safe. You can run in and rescue one item. What will it be?

The answer, overwhelmingly, is family photos.

We are the sum of our memories. Photos help us capture time and space, preserve moments that otherwise would be lost. I seek the ordinary, the flat reality which is otherwise invisible.
