Close-up of an old Communist receiving his reward

 

It's been this way for, what, 75 years?

 

Federal agencies and the Department of Defense are investigating everybody

Why our ancestors left the old countries

“That is an Old World trait and I won’t have it.” – Daniel Woodrell, Woe to Live On. 

Jacob Roedel spoke of his German-born father’s belief that citizens should follow what was told them because officials “have uniforms and high-sounding titles.” In Europe, many officials of high or low position wore uniforms. Tax collectors, railroad conductors, toll bridge fee takers. In European thinking, the uniform elevated the wearer. The official, minor or upper-level, must be obeyed because his position was created and overseen by king, czar or kaiser. To disobey a uniformed official was to disobey the ultimate ruler. Today, too many politicians and bureaucrats have placed themselves in the position of uniformed officials. They do not know that our country was founded in opposition to the belief that government must be followed in all situations and circumstances.

Hungarian Revolution, 1956

 

This is Erika Szeles. She was 15 when Hungarians rose up against occupying Russians and Hungary’s own Communist government. After fierce fighting, the Red Army left Budapest, but returned two months later. Erika later became a nurse, caring for Hungarian civilians and soldiers wounded by Communist invaders. She was shot in the neck while aiding a wounded Hungarian fighter and died on Nov. 7, 1956.

These are members of the Hungarian secret police, captured shortly after the uprising began. They appear arrogant and frightened at the same time. This is not supposed to happen to them. They are the bringers of punishment.

Here, the secret police are being shot by their captors. Bullets have not yet reached the men, but minds realize impending death and cause bodies to put up hands and arms in defense and to turn heads against bullets that will not be turned.

 

 

Booker, Texas, used to be La Kemp, Oklahoma

That part of Texas-Oklahoma used to be a bone of contention in the throats of Texas and Oklahoma politicians. What is now the three counties of the Oklahoma Panhandle, Texas claimed as part of the Republic and then the State of Texas. The federal government got in an argument with the Republic, as it often did on matters of borders. The feds won, as they often do, and those three counties became federal territory, later tacked on to the northwestern part of Oklahoma. 

But that’s not why La Kemp, Okla., became Booker, Texas. Wikipedia says: “Booker was founded seven miles north of where it currently sits as La Kemp, Oklahoma, in 1909. However, ten years later when the Panhandle and Santa Fe Railway was built from Shattuck, Oklahoma, to Spearman, Texas, the entire town moved seven miles across the state line to be near the railroad. The town was platted shortly before the move in 1917 by Thomas C. Spearman who had Spearman, Texas named after him. La Kemp was renamed Booker in honor of one of the engineers for the railroad.” 

So it was economics of the time, a railroad, that caused towns folk of an Oklahoma town to say, “You know what? We’d be better off if we were in Texas.” Such a decision today would benefit both states, what with Texas receiving more emigrants from California and such than has Oklahoma. In the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections, here is the number of Oklahoma counties that voted for the Democratic Party candidate: 0. In Texas, counties of big cities voted Democratic: Fort Worth-Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, and Brownsville, just across the river from Mexico.

A dam and a big lake – Texoma -- in the north of Texas and south of Oklahoma already keep the Red River under some control. Four million Oklahomans joining 29 million Texans could keep blue-staters in line, too.
