Free California

From Drum Circles to WMD's

Is anyone surprised that the two most prominent Americans caught up in the war on terror are Californians? It is true, Adam Gadahn (aka Azzam the American, aka Adam Pearlman) and John Walker Lindh, who is now serving jail time after being caught in Afghanistan with the Taliban, come from Orange County and Marin, respectively.

And not surprisingly, both men have much in common. Both had non-traditional schooling and non-conformist parents steeped in the radicalize jargon of the Summer of Love. Lindh’s upbringing was typical Marin: physiatrist father, odd hobby’s, meditative spirituality, obligatory broken home. Adam Gadahn was Californian at hyper-speeed. Born in Orange County in 1978. His father, whose actual impact on his son can only be speculated at as Gahahn Sr. avoids the press, was a well-known Psychedelic sound musician in the sixties whose most prominent album, Beat of Earth, was drum circle affair labeled as the “Velvet Underground of the West” upon its released in 1967. With funding from his prominent Urologist father, Adam’s Dad raised his offspring on a rural farm in the desert outside San Diego.
He was a strong advocate for the complete rejection of contemporary American culture, home schooled his children and, according to ex-band mate Karen Darby “voiced…a total distain for the ‘consumeristical society.’ In other words, Adam was raised in the funky, radicalized Whole Earth vibe that is typical from Arcadia to Santa Cruz to Encinitas.

FC personally thinks we ought to really fear Adam Gadahn. Just yesterday, he taunted America, boasting, "Yesterday, London and Madrid, tomorrow Los Angeles and Melbourne, Allah willing...this time, don't count on us demonstrating restraint or compassion." We have, it seems, ourselves a real California revolutionary. Someone, bred on an odd quirk in the history and mythology of California who finds himself in the wild west of Pakistan threatening his homeland with its very existence.

FC believes Adam Gadahn’s current radicalism is not the work of Al Qaeda Imams but the Guru’s and shaman of the California Coast. Only in Al Qaeda’s brand of anti-Americanism and anti-globalization he has found the perfect outlet and continuation of the ideology his father raised him on. In Adam, we find, for the first time, a line that can be traced from the ideology of late-sixties radicalism to Islamic fascism of today. His complaints and motivations are almost identical to his fathers. His final actions, still to come, are real and we cannot fool ourselves, they mean it this time and they are prepared to take it to it’s conclusion. We, all Californians, need to know where this comes from. Not the Middle East, no way, his anger comes from something in all of us. A hatred and avarice is formed by arrogant yoga instructors and life coaches, a self-hating self-doubt in ourselves creates all Adam Gadahn's, like it or not.

Bud K's Catalog

Behind closed doors, in the underground subcultures of America, is where the real action is.  The stuff on TV, the stuff everyone talks about at the water cooler is just boring pulp we consume to pass time before we get back to the stuff we really like underground and in private.  Recently, I came across a catalog whose products fall deep into this realm of subculture: The Bud K Catalog. 

Bud K’s is ostensibly a knife catalog but oh so much more. In it one can procure a replica 15^th Century War Hammer, a Thompson Gun Desk Lighter or a Dragons Guardian Sward.  Everything: the whole catalog, of course, made in China all for under $100.   Taken as a whole their list of products form one large sub-culture: erotic knife collecting.  But considered as individual items each product encompass a small part of another infinite sub-genre, of a sub-genre, upon a sub-genre from American Nazi weapon kits to Dungeon’s and Dragon’s fighting tools, to Southern Fried Military Regalia and on and on.

Bud K’s is based in Moultrie, GA, deep in the heart of the Christian South. One is often stuck by the fact that odd sub-cultures are most often most practiced by people we’d least expect: respectable Doctors stash kiddy porn, soccer mom’s love anime. etc.  Here we have Bud K’s selling tools of death in raw form. You'd expect this in Fresno, deep in Meth-country, or in dirty-dirty New York, but no, this is curious placement indeed: Moultrie, Georgia.  A contradiction and hypocrisy: America forming in its sleepy ‘burgs, ranting for Christ but never-ever acknowledging anything.

What is going on down at Bud K is an accelerated version of what we get everywhere.  Bud K’s consumers are living out fantasies: offing sand niggers, turning Jeddah to a plate of glass, being strong and tough ass bikers, phony ninjas and play Nazis, time wasters in tin sub-genres of unreality and living on barrowed time and credit.  Truth is hard; reality is hard. How much better to wave the confederate battle flag in concealed fencing rather than start fighting for real truth and admitting the leaders you have put so much faith in are housed on this hapless ship of fools?

Dream on Bud K’s customers, play your fantasy games: ride that Harley to South Dakota, slap a halter top on the miss’s, smoke those Winston’s, enjoy. Just remember what you did during these times as you look back far from now then look at yourself in the mirror, pecks atrophying, Tina’s boobs sagging?  Then remember Free California.

THE CALIFORNIA TERRORISTS

Free California has one thing to say about the California terror suspects: Stay tuned folks these two idiots are just the begining, California is very likely teaming with'em-the Islamic variety and beyond.

Da Prez; Da Hypocrite

Hypocrisy is the expression of agreement that is not supported by real conviction. And it is a problem for government officials the world over, our President is a hypocrite.

For the last 5 years Bush has led the crack down on terrorists the world over, he has squired away accused terrorists without trial or legal council and invaded two countries to achieve his goal. And yet somehow when it comes to Cuban terrorists he is mute.

In a little reported story an anti-Castro insurgent named Luis Posada Carriles has requested asylum in the United States. Mr. Posada Carriles has been implicated in a bombing of a Cuban Aircraft, the assassination of a Chilean dissident named Orlando Letelier right on Embassy Row in Washington and Castro himself. In other words, Mr. Posada Carriles is a terrorist. And yet the U.S. government has - so far - refused to extradite him and he remains free in the United States somewhere (most likely in the home of some wealthy Castro hater in South Florida). Carriles was an operative in the ill-fated Operation Condor program that terrorized left-wing dissidents during the late 1970’s with tacit support of the CIA, the same CIA, we note, that was being run by none other than George H.W. Bush. This last point may explain the current President’s reluctance to let this cat out of the bag.

We applaud the San Francisco Chroncile and the New York Times for actually raising this story in op-ed pieces because most the United States press has conveniently ignored the story.

Happy Cinco De Mayo

If you consider yourself an American, Today is that special day to celebrate our disfunctional relationship with Mexico.

Cinco De Mayo is the celebration of Mexico's defeat of French Troops and the ouster of Napoleon's puppet Maximillian in 1862. Lead by the brave General Zartagosa and Portofino Diaz, outnumbered, Mexico defeated the technologically advanced French. The Mexicans were also supplied by arms delivered to the boarder by U.S. General Sheridian which arrived at the front just in time. So really Cinco De Mayo ought to be a time to celebrate US-Mexican cooperation; instead, the Mexicans here and abbroud continue to foster resentment.

Just check this out:

"Those signs offended people across the country for two sensitive reasons. There's documentation that some large corporations are contributing to our illegal immigration problem and secondly, a large number of illegal aliens and their political activists don't respect or acknowledge America's territorial jurisdiction over the area and have repeatedly said, 'It's our land and we are taking it back.''

Think about that as you sip your Margaritas, you suckers! That guy cleaning up you wasted Guac is actually a freedom fighter seeking the liberation of Topanga, who knew?

Thanks AS.

Enviornmental Call for Secession

Attached you will find an interesting column from the Earth News out of San Diego calling for secession.

Despite the articles leftist psychobabble (Bro, California’s Indian population is small band of casino operators, get over it.) this article makes the case that there is a direct connection between immigration and environmental destruction that will not change until we leave the Union.

Interestingly, his arguments are closely associated with those of libertarians something FC has commented on before, if we are to remove ourselves from the union these two groups - the pinko enviro-facists and mountain home shut-ins need to come together and find common cause. This may already be happening in the wilds around Eureka. Perhaps this article portends a movement in that direction in the southland? Who knows, but if FC's gun touting cousins in Le Mesa are any indication, it might happen. Everything that is important to the Southland Cowboys – the government staying out of their business, access to weed and water, limited immigration, etc. - are issues of the enviro-lefties.

California: Smarter, Better

More proof, as if we needed it, that Cali is better than the nation it is in union with.

Of the 304,000 students nationwide who took the SAT last year, 107 recieved the perfect score of 2400. Of those 24 were from California or 22%. What makes this shocking is that the state represents only 13.3% of the total United States population.

Here is the article

The Problem with the Weed Deal

This is the problem with Cali's efforts to allow access to medical reefer - no matter what, when you get bunch of hippies and a bunch of weed it eventually brings in the wrong kind of crowd:

The Freaks!

Hello?

1/4th of all ILLEGAL immigrants end up in California.
