Freedom of speech does not apply to the military, sort of.

Obviously, we at Zombified Times are all for free speech but what the hell was Sgt. Gary Stein thinking when he started posting anti-Obama comments on Facebook as well as printing anti-Obama bumper stickers?  I served in the Navy for 15 years and my father for 20+ years.  My aunt and grandfathers and great uncles all served as well. So I have some knowledge of this as in the way that the military looks at it but com'on. What makes you think it is ok to bash your boss, the commander and chief?  And Marine Corp are you no longer teaching that as a soldier you no longer have a full freedom of speech?


Members of the military have the right to say or to write what they think, up to a point. They can't say things that encourage violence (other than as part of authorized military operations) or urge others to violate military regulations. They can't communicate with "the enemy," for example, by writing letters to Iraqi officials or soldiers. Article 88 of the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) makes it a crime for a commissioned officer to use "contemptuous words" against the President, Vice-President, Secretary of Defense, and other specified high government officials. Enlisted members can be prosecuted under Article 134 for using similar words. The words have to be "to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces, or conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces." Military members have gotten into trouble for calling officials "fascists," "thieves," murderers" "tyrants" "fools" and "gangsters." This law is selectively enforced. Some officers didn't get in trouble for saying bad things about President Clinton, for example. Article 117 of the UCMJ outlaws using "provoking or reproachful words or gestures" towards someone else in the military. The more real danger, however, if from saying things that could make other members desert, disobey lawful orders, or refuse to do their jobs. That kind of speech could violate Article 82 of the UCMJ, which makes it a crime for someone in the military to ask someone else to desert or mutiny (disobey orders as a group).

Members of the military can write letters to newspapers -- so long as they are not part of an organized letter campaign for a political candidate, party, or partisan political cause. (This rule, is found in Army Regulation 600-20, Appendix B). It is unclear what the Army means by "partisan political cause," but it probably means a cause promoted by a political party. Military members can also publish their own newspapers - so long as they do it while they are off duty and don't use military paper, ink, computers, phones, or other supplies or equipment. Of course, members may not say or give the impression that they are speaking on behalf of the military.


When you took that oath Sgt. Stein you promised to uphold the constitution of the United States as well as follow and support the Commander and Chief.  Common sense says keep your comments to yourself.  If it was a regular job and you bad mouth your boss, you would get fired.  Are are soldiers becoming that stupid?  This has been seen over and over again.  Why are they taking pictures of POW's, why are they sharing stories of interrogations?  Why are they talking about methods of interrogations?

What the media and the public do not know about are best kept that way for the sake of the military and national security.  What ever happened to the Office of Censorship, why is the military even letting this stuff get out.  As a soldier you are held to a higher standard than the common citizen and your job is probably the most dangerous job now a days, but you need to have some common sense and some restraint.  Sure we are now contending with the digital age, social media and right here right now mentality but you as a soldier have the ability to prevent these stupid, costly and potentially dangerous activities that can unravel all the good work that so many others in the military are doing.

Sgt. Stein, you get what you deserve, OTH discharge is light considering the circumstances and the fact we are still in a combat mode.  If the corps decided to go dishonorable that would be fine with me.  Your behavior was totally unacceptable and a disgrace to the Marines and all American Soldiers and Sailors, past and present.

Secret Congressional Laws go in to effect 4/5/2012

In an amazing but typical fashion congress has passed several new laws that will go in effect on April 5th 2012. The passing of these laws will have far reaching effect over how all Americans live.  In all the House voted down all of these mandates but due to Presidential over ride they have been set to go into law.  Lets take a look at a few.

One law states that dispensing candy, eggs, plastic grass and woven baskets will be banned and any person found in violation will be subject to a fine of $10,000 and or 10 years in prison.  Senator Harry Reid stated that this is a sweeping regulation that one will protect Americans from becoming obese, will make it fair for those who can not enjoy candies or eggs, honor those who a true vegetarians and protect the environment from the over harvesting of various grasses and wood products used in making baskets.  Sen. Reid stated that we can no longer live in the have and have not society and everyone needs to have equal access to everything or all will be denied access to everything.

Candy maker Hershey in Hershey, PA commented that they tried desperately to stop the legislation but now will be forced to close, but they will keep the amusement park open as a museum so that we can honor they history of candy and never forget the contributions candy made to world peace, but to not push the governments buttons they will remove all candy charactures from the park and will remove any candy related name to any ride or entertainment venue at their Hershey Park.

Also in another law congress put forth is that the United States will no longer honor Easter as a holiday due to the fact that it is religious based and not all Americans follow the Judeo-Christian faith.  Other holidays that are going to be eliminated will be Christmas, Hanukkah, Halloween, Veterans Day.  Senator Boxer said we need to remove these "holidays" cause not everyone is a veteran, not everyone believes in Halloween, Christmas or Hanukkah.  We have also left the law open to add other days a needed.

Welcome to the New America

At this point Zombified Times really can not make any comment on these few laws other than we have warned you, that things will be getting ridiculous and we are seeing it now.  NYC schools are banning words, such as dinosaur, birthday, dancing and several others.  We can still save the US from Zombification but it will be a hard battle to fight and we all need to stand up and take back our country and our beliefs.  How much more are we going to allow the government to take away from us and how much more will we keep giving them?

Be Back soon

Retrospect - some unpublished rants from early on.

I was looking at some rants I penned a few years ago and thought it would be a good time to take a look back at what was the issues in 2009 so read on and take a look what was eating at us then and see how much of it has come true....enjoy.


1.3 Trillion for Health Care????? •July 15, 2009

So now the Obama Administration is spending tax dollars to run ads of disgruntle Americans who have had problems with health care or should I say they have had problems with their insurance.  So who foots the “Social Medice for all”.  We do, our employers and the wealthy.  I am not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination.  In fact last week I had $30 dollars till payday, no savings and I still had health care.  How did society get to this?  I’ll tell you, your hippie 60′s parents, drug  induced radicals.  Why should I have to pay for some moron who can’t take care of themselves and feels the need to smoke or sit on the couch day after day and waste away.  I smoke, I like to sit on my ass and do nothing and if I can’t get the insurance to cover my illnesses then I guess I die, oh freakin well.

Lets look at what this is going to do with our employers.  First of all if this goes through and my employer is forced to pay more for healthcare, we will close.  So what you say well simply put 125 people will be unemployed and our community will loose 1.2 millon dollars a year from tax payer dollars spent locally and almost 3 million dollars will be lost in tax revenue to the city, county, state and federal government.  No effect, hmmm, not.

How about those who are bitching sit down and look at what their insurance plan offers, talk to you employers and find out if they can purchase more options.  More than 3/4 of all insured americans have no clue as to what is covered and what is not in their health or dental insurance.  They have no clue as to what medicines are covered and best of all they listen to their doctors as the word of god.  That is just pure lazy stupidity.  You have no problem going to a new machanic when you feel you are getting screwed at the garage, why would you let the doctor be the sole decision maker of your health.  I guess the car is more important.  It will go far when you are dead.


Era of open policy – not •May 6, 2009

So in January President Obama said that then public will know everything that is going on in the government.  But yesterday we were informed that those fine fly over photos would not be release to the public…double standard, sounds like it.

Senator Reid skirted answering Matt Lauers question on if there would be Bush Administration Officials prosecuted for “Torture of Prisoners”  Why investigate Diane Finestine if you are not planning on prosecution?  I can say I have been water boarded, and placed in a CS gas chamber, hey I am still here.  Although we would think of a higher standard based on the current presidency for how we treat combatants, it will come all down to one thing.  Our soldier will do what they probably should do in the first place…shoot kill and never ask questions.  It seems that asking questions will get you in more trouble.  Maybe if we buy them flowers and a hug they will be  nice to us.  Of course the rest of the world will take those gifts and screw us with out as much as a kiss!

The economy – get over it.  I think the American public is catching on to who is really screwing us.  Last night there was a commercial with Citi, Capital One and some other companys that they will work with you in adjusting your payments so you can afford to be in debt.  So I just picked up the phone called one of my credit card company’s that decided that after 25 years with the card and company and no late payment, a small 3 digit balance decided to bump my intrest from 6% to 23%. WHHHAAATTTTTTTTTTT!  I talked with them and said look I can not afford the new payment of $150 (previous payment was $30)  Their offer, close the account, spread the payment over 12 months, then what?  Well the interest was still the same the finance charge changed the balance so when all was said and done I would have paid over $2500 on a $900 balance.  The banks need to forclose faster on these derilects that purchased homes they could not afford in the first place.  Now now, I am not talking about the person that just lost their job but Jim and Sally Public who have a combined income of $100,000 a year and were given a $1,000,000 mortgage, 100% L2V and an adjustable rate that went from 5 to 11%,  Sure I blame the banks for issuing a loan like that then taking my retirement and investing it in the housing market, but are you so stupid that you could think you could really afford that?  Hey bail this!  I bought my house base on what I can afford, and guess what…I still live in it, and it is worth more than when I bought it (because of repairs and upgrades I did) not because some market over inflated the price.


Take me to your leader •March 4, 2009

So now the main stream media idiots are putting forth some dribble that Rush Limbaugh is the leader of the republican party…..just like Al Franken is the leader of the democratic party…asses.  Plain and simple.  The Dems in the office now are the typical snot nose little cry babies.  Please take your ball and go home.  The fact of the matter is that President Obama has surrounded himself with Clinton failures and and inexperienced dopes that he is going to fail.  This is very similar to the college grad who didn’t get the job and his mom calls the company to complain about not hiring her son.

Republicans need grow a set.  I can’t stand it, maybe I will go beat somebody at the sandbox to feel better!

Birth control mandate for men from Democrats

     Democrats have announced today that they have come up with an equal contraceptive coverage for men to equal women in an attempt to raise the favoritism toward government mandated health coverage.  While this will not cover, condoms or surgical procedures such as vasectomies, it will cover a pill that will aid in the governments attempt to control population and keep Americans dependent on them so that they can continue to spread the socialist agenda they so desired.  In a sub section of the provision it also decrees that elementary schools will be able to administer to all males with out parental consent, which should help keep all those parents happy that they no longer need to make decision for their sons and that the government will take care of that for them.  When we asked when did this contraception become available, Nancy Pelosi commented that it has always been available for as long as she can remember, Senator Charles Schumer says he has used it for all of his life.
     We at Zombified Times are baffled as to what male contraception was available that was equal to the women's version.  We contacted our health contributor and he says it is a very inexpensive contraception that has been around even longer than women's oral contraception, to use it you simply take a pill and place it in your shoe.  It will make you limp.

13 year old boy burned by two teens

Two teenagers allegedly attacked a 13-year-old boy and set him on fire with gasoline in what police in Kansas City, Missouri are investigating as a possible hate crime.  The boy was followed home from, East High School by two teens who, once they reached the boys home, blocked his access to the house, restrained him in a head lock and poured gasoline on his head.  One of the teens said this is what you get white boy, then lite the lighter igniting the gas, burning the 13 year old's eye lashes and eyebrows off and singeing the boys hair.  Through quick thinking he pulled his shirt over his head and stopped the fire.

Authorities described the two suspects are african american, about 16 years old with facial hair. One was wearing a black hooded-sweatshirt and dark sunglasses. The other wore a blue jacket, a blue winter hat and blue-green Nike Air Jordan sneakers.

This is not the first assault on a student at the school.  East High has approximately 91 students listed as white and the school predominantly is made up of African american and Hispanic students.  It has been noted that there are several reports of teachers at the school repeatedly attacking white students, verbally assaulting them over the fact they are white.


Yet another incident at East High.  Ms. Veda, and advanced English teacher at East High, who after watching graphic material of lynchings in the South, through the early to mid 20th century, mind you this is an English class not a Civ class, attacked twin sisters, telling them that 'everybody from Texas is ignorant rednecks'" and that all white people were "responsible for Jasper because [their] skin is white."  This reference is to an atrocity in Jasper, TX, in which three white men murdered a black man in 1998.  The girls are originally from Texas.

In a similar story for the same school, the American Thinker reported:


Another white victim is 15-year-old Ashley Miller, whose family had moved to K.C., MO, from Kansas.  Subject to racial harassment, she was called names such as "white b****."  She also actually shared a class with Allen Coon, and as the only two white students in the room, they became the target of sexual comments.  Moreover, she reports the same experience with race-baiting videos as do the Wildeisens: they would be shown, and an onus would be placed on the white students.  Her mother Melissa told me that she now fears for her daughter's safety and, you guessed it, is in the process of withdrawing Ashley from East High.  And the rest of the pattern is holding, too: the Millers are contemplating leaving the area. Read more

Was this a hate crime, the current facts would support that.  Zombified Times has repeatedly contacted the East High Principal and the Kansas City School District as well as the school board president and have either been told "no comment" or no statement at this time.  We suspect that KC Police will not arrest anyone for the crime and after getting comment from the KC City council the school district itself may be a train wreck waiting to happen.  City Council wants to regain control of the school district and remove all members of the board, but would not specify reasons why.  East High as well as most schools in the district rank in the lowest 20% of all performing schools in the United States, and why not,  with teachers who have no business teaching such as Ms. Veda.  And people why we have all the Zombies coming right out of high school.

This has gotta be the best weapon invented since gun powder

SpeechJammer.  Watch the video, need I say more?

This has to be the greatest weapon created since gun powder.  I love the Japanese.  I have word from The American Survival Guide about this type of device also being available from Sig Sauer, Ruger, Remington, Smith & Wesson, DPMS, Colt, Kimber, Bushmaster, Kahr, Benelli Barrett and Dillon Aero.  Now of course this won't stop brain eating Zombies but it will stop those mind numbing Zombies from annoying the hell out of the rest of us!
