Introducing The La-Fayette Meeting Place

 As those that have been following and reading know, the Fellowship of Concerned Constitutional Patriots (sometimes shortened to Concerned Constitutional Patriots) has had a national presence on the internet for almost a decade.

After we settled down and I partially retired in Lamar County Alabama, I started developing a conviction to do something on a local level. And not just for us, but as an example and hopefully just a beginning for others to do the same thing in counties, cities and towns around the country. 

The La-Fayette Meeting Place is short for The Lamar County- Fayette County Meeting Place. As we know Lafayette is a common name and many places around our country bear that name. Interestingly, we lived in Lafayette Louisiana for 18 months previous to here. And I saw an old map of Alabama that showed Lamar and Fayette Counties as one, called Lafayette. The La-Fayette Meeting Place is the location and meeting name for the Fellowship of Concerned Constitutional Patriots: The Lamar County/Fayette County Chapter. Perhaps one day it'll grow so we can split it into 2 or more chapters. 

It is modeled after a church service, and if allowed, will technically be a church, but biblically it is not. No Pastors, Elders or Deacons. No Bible sermons. There will be some praying, scripture reading and Christian music along with patriotic music, readings from the constitution, our country's founding fathers, and news that affects us. In other words, it will be unapologetically Christian (but non denominational) and constitutional, but the purpose is to inform about unconstitutional and economical issues, and major news, and encourage one another through music and getting to know each other. 

My goal is for our meeting times to not interfere with Sunday and Wednesday Church services, yet be at a time for most people to come. I know that between Church, football, school, and more, there will not be a perfect day and time. Even though I live in Vernon and know more people here, I want to try to be somewhat centrally located for Lamar and Fayette Counties, and it be easy to get to. 

So to start off we will meet once a month on the 2nd Thursday of each month at 7pm at the Crossville Community Center. If you can't come but believe in what I'm trying to do, please spread the word, and if you're a praying person, pray for this.

If you have any questions, you can reply to the posts in the various Facebook groups and posts, Private Message me on either my personal account (BretM Lovitz) or Pester Brat, or you can email me at pesterbratdotcom@aol.com.  

We need to do this more than ever before. There is so much going on that's further eroding our freedom, economy, and country. Let's make this endeavor happen!

Thank you, I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible.

P.S. If you are reading this and are not local, I hope that you will consider doing this in your own county, city, or town. 

National Debt Update

 As of the date of this post, out national debt according to usdebtclock.org is over 28 trillion 672 billion dollars.

That comes to over 86,000 per citizen and over 227,000 per taxpayer.

What we're doing to our children and grandchildren is unconscionable! While one major political party seems to spend more than the other, both parties are culpable. 

Is it too late to do anything about it? What cab be done? Is voting the right people in the only remedy if we even could? There are other remedies, but most people would not be willing to do it. 

Wake up people, before it's too late.

Oh Where or Where Did the Truckers Go, Oh Where Oh Where Did They Go?

I have never been a truck driver to earn a living. I tried to back one up once years ago when the regular yard driver was busy. And I have rented  numerous 20-26 foot trucks to move from one state to another due to new jobs. My brother has been a fleet manager, and one of our grown children has just become a tractor trailer driver for his employer. 

It is an important job. While there has been concern about there being enough tractor trailer drivers for a few years now, we have seen during the last year or so during the manufactured crisis due to the COVID-19 just how important they are. 

During the last week of the date of this blog post, there have been some articles about the consequences of a "trucker shortage." You know that many in the Lamestream Media can't pass up a chance for fearmongering. 

But the concern itself is real, and applies to other employment categories as well. We could point to numerous reasons for the problem, but it is not my intention to get into that in this blog post. From the human perspective it could cause some serious problems down the road that could be gradual and progressive. We as parents and grandparents should be encouraging and guiding our children and grandchildren to become truck drivers. Companies should be doing more to get people to become truck drivers. And the government needs to stop burdening these companies with to much taxes and regulations.

Lastly, us Christians would do well to include this issue in our prayers.

2nd Amendmentations 3:24

 Okay, so I like catchy titles. Is this one catchy enough? The first two parts of the title are pretty obvious I reckon. The "3:24" just represents today's date because there was a hearing today about the numerous anti-2nd Amendment bills. JRB and company are on it, aren't they? I did catch a news clip showing Ted Cruz saying that every time there's a tragic shooting, more gun control is proposed by the Left. 

Do they think we're all stupid? Are they all stupid? Not all of us are. Sadly there are many leftists that either are that stupid or just haven't thought things through. And not all of Congress are either. They know it's not the gun, gun free zone, and background checks. A lot of them are hypocrites about it anyway.

They have an agenda. And if a growing number of citizens keep falling for it, history may repeat itself. Don't fall for it! Let's stand our ground. If this nonsense passes, tell your state senators and representatives you expect it to not be enforced and want immediate nullification. Tell them now, don't wait to see if anything passes. Tell them you want constitutional carry/ permit-less concealed carry and that it's no longer an option. And not just them, tell your Governor, Commissioner(s), Mayor, Sheriff, and Chief of Police. If that doesn't work, they can't take what you don't have. It's just what we believe for those that do have!

But when it's all said and done, it's a good thing that this world is not the home of born again Christians. However, this is not an excuse for passivity and doing nothing. What about our children and grandchildren if the Lord tarries?

You're Once, Twice, Three Time a....Racist?

Oh, I'm sorry. That's "lady" not "racist" right? Who was it that sung that? Lionel Ritchie? I wonder what he thinks about all of the racism, race baiting, white privilege, and BLM? I haven't come across any quotes from him about this stuff. If you have, feel free to share. Am I insinuating that he is a racist? Not at all. The title of this song he sang just happened to come to mind while thinking about this issue and a title, so hopefully it's catchy enough for you to read this blog post :-). 

So who's a racist? White people? Black people? Hispanic people? Asian people? Trump supporters? BLM? White Supremist Groups? How about no one? Or maybe it's everyone! 

Folks, whether you are a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, or Independent, we are being played...scammed. Divide and conquer is likely the strategy of 'powers that be,' whether you want to call them Bilderbergers, Deep State, Illuminati, or something else. 

Look, we all have some racism in us whether we realize it or not. It's part and parcel of our sin nature that is not completely done way with until we receive our resurrected bodies. Yet we have grown as a society, and I don't think it is near as bad as the Lamestream Media is making it out to be. Yes there is white on black crime. The last time I checked there are white and black people in this country, so sadly it will happen. That doesn't mean it is racially motivated. Most of the time it probably isn't. There is also black on white crime, black on black crime, white on white crime, and more. The death of George Floyd, while a tragedy, has never been proven to be racially motivated. It may have been, and it may not have been. Yes we should continue to work towards eliminating any injustice that remains in our "justice" system. As an old neighbor from my school days just said, "we all bleed red." And as I've said numerous times, the cross of Christ is the great equalizer and we were all created in the image of God. But this white privilege, white guilt, reparations, and defunding the police stuff is nonsense! Even a growing number of black citizens and elected officials agree. 

So let's work together to correct and learn from our mistakes, grow, and reform where it's needed. Because the problems at the southern border, second amendment issues, and the bad economy, doesn't care what color we are. That and all this race baiting and racially biased reporting by most of the media is falling right into the Deep State's hands.

Remember, God is no respecter of persons. To Him be the glory!

EIP 3: Another Stimulus

 So nice of our federal government to do us a huge favor and give us a few crumbs from a table they don't even own anymore. I haven't posted much at all in recent years, but if you're reading my blog posts you can tell that "I'm ba-aaack" :-). 

I still have not fully decided about former (many believe he still should be) POTUS Trump's motives in his role in dealing with the supposed COVID-19 pandemic. It seems like in the very beginning he didn't believe it warranted doing what they ended up doing, but then shortly after acted perhaps due to pressure because of the WHO and CDC. But it still rightly wasn't mandated. However most of the States wrongly did mandate various unconstitutional restrictions as we all know.

In my opinion, the only people that should have gotten or get a stimulus check are people who were working and lost jobs or hours because of the state government restrictions. Those of us that didn't lose hours or jobs shouldn't have gotten or get one. Now, I guess, as one person mentioned to me on social media, that makes me a hypocrite. I didn't cut up or send back my checks. Should I do it on principle? Will it make a difference? 

What I do recommend though is that as much as possible we (especially those of us that were still working) use the stimulus money to pay off or down on things that would matter in a major economic collapse: This EIP will bring the national debt up to about 30 Trillion Dollars! Mortgage, vehicle loan, property tax, generator, stock up on water and short and long shelf life food if you can't live off of the land. Use that money wisely. 

Just food for thought.

Defundopolis: Defund What?

 As most if not all of us know, ever since the tragic death of George Floyd (yes it was still tragic regardless of the motives racially or otherwise), there has been this movement to defund various police departments. I think most states, counties, cities and towns have enough sense not to do that or even reduce funding. But I still have mixed feelings about it...

Don't get me wrong, I respect our police officers. Often they are our relatives and next door neighbors (not in my case though). If I was in a situation where I was able to help one in trouble, I would try to. As I mentioned in a blog post on 3/1/2021, I'm concerned how many of them would follow through with unconstitutional orders from their chiefs/sheriffs on up. They don't get to those in trouble just in the "nick of time" as portrayed in many dramatic cop shows and movies, so we should be prepared to protect our family if necessary. And sometimes we hear or read about police officers that realize that and that citizens indeed should open or conceal carry guns (to many thats? :-)). But for the most part police just clean up messes and investigate.

Some have said that there never should have been police. But in this day and age I think statistics have shown that the mere existence of police helps keep "some" crime down. Besides, we can't just have people parking anywhere they want and drive as fast as they want, right? ;-) But you know what keeps crime down even more? Would-be evil doers wondering whether the person they are about ready to rob, rape, hurt or kill, is carrying a gun. Statistics have proven that works. Interesting that this defunding the police movement is going on and there is 5,000 National Guard folks around the capitol. People smarter than me have said that a national police force historically leads to a tyrannical totalitarian government. But that would never happen in our country, would it?

What should be defunded is the federal government. Both parties want a big government. Come on man ;-) just look at what's been happening. Maybe DJT, TC and JH are sincere but most are probably in it together. Until we some how some way defund them so that the national deficit is eliminated and we can begin reducing the national debt, it ain't gonna be a pretty picture. Trump didn't do it, so you can bet your bottom dollar Biden won't. 

By the way, when the $1.9 Trillion Stimulus hits, our (yes our) national debt will be right around 30 Trillion Dollars. We need to stop that, eliminate departments, close most military bases, and stop the perpetual wars and interventionism. 

Thanks for reading. Please consider.

Joseph R. Biden

He's been in politics a long time. He ran for President in the past and is now the 46th President of the United States, aka POTUS. I am certainly no fan of him being our President. I do not believe he won the electoral college or the popular vote. I did not vote for him because of where he stands on various issues AND his failing health. 

I haven't watched the lamestream media news for years unless Fox News was showing something one of them said. As they do with other newsworthy items I'm assuming that news channels such as CNN, MSNBC, NBC, ABC and CBS did not share Joe Biden's cognitive issues. But they knew. Kamala Harris knew. Nancy Pelosi knew. Joe's wife Jill knew. Susan Rice knew. What is their plan? How many Republicans knew? Mitch McConnell? Lindsay Graham? Of course they did, that's a given. But did they do enough about it? Are all or most of both major Parties in this together? Yet how many readers of this blog post knew and voted for Joe Biden anyway? If so, shame on you!

My prayer life isn't as it should be generally, but our prayers are also supposed to be for our leaders. Do we pray for Joseph R. Biden and this whole situation? I don't like the way people like Sean Hannity and others mock Joe Biden's cognitive problem (by the way, I don't watch Fox News anymore)- stick with the issues!

We don't know how much longer JRB will be President (and I'm not referring to death, that could happen to any of them). It could be months, 2-3 years, or his whole term. But he is not fit to be POTUS. We do know that if he is removed or steps down that Kamala Harris will become POTUS and Nancy Pelosi VPOTUS. 

Whether it's what's already happened while Joe is POTUS or if Kamala becomes POTUS and it continues or gets worse, what's should we be doing as Constitutionalists and Christians? Pray hard my friends!

My COVID-19 Vitamin Regimen

Part of Pester Brat Dot Com is sharing information about vitamins and getting ready to start a vitamin business and share plan (more about the business and share plan later). I have shared my regimen a couple of times previously (I used to have a separate website). This regimen is also to help prevent COVID-19. Out of genuine concern and principle, I have no intention of getting the COVID-19 vaccine and I haven't had a flu vaccine in over a decade. I was exposed to COVID-19 three times at my previous employer and again recently through my wife's employer, and thankfully to the Lord I have not gotten it. If you don't want to just do this that of course is your right. If you get the vaccine you don't have to worry about me, right?

Well, for whatever it's worth, here's what I have been doing daily since COVID-19 last year:

1. 3,000-10,000mg of Liquid Liposomal Vitamin C.

2. 15,000-20,000iu of Vitamin D3.

3. 400iu of Natural Vitamin E.

4. 25,000iu of Vitamin A.

5. 45mg of Zinc (about 15mg of it in the multi-vitamin).

6. Mega Multi-Vitamin that has Natural E and Natural B-12.

7. 5,000iu of Natural Vitamin B-12

8. 5mg of Melatonin (at night of course).

There are others that I take sporadically, and I just added Magnesium about a week before this blog post.  

Thanks and Blessings,
