Like my daughter before me, Mandi from KY, got tangled up in the 1st “take over” at the beach in Daytona, blocked into the parking garage, with these black men beating on her car windows. She was stuck & the police had blocked the bridges going East bound and I couldn’t get to her, aaarrrrgggghhhh!!!
I got mixed up with it at a local restaurant that night of the last one. I was the only whitey in the whole building and there was people wall to wall in an area of about 7 feet by 15 feet. Thankfully I turned the old charm on and had good conversations with several.
The police chief wants to do totally away with Daytona Beach being a spring break destination, to which I say, do “YOUR” job, let the cops be seen as much then as is at bike week. I’m disappointed in both this cat & our mayor, who seems to only care about the city West of Ridgewood. Those kids that come here outside of these take overs, spend money, and we are obliged to take it, to keep state taxes to zero. Why stop it all together, again sir, “Do your job!!!”
I hope your bike week went well, as mine did. I got out more this year than I have in the last five. I tried to make all the places that advertise but failed at being at a few, but I’ll see most of them April 25th when I lead a FREEDOM RIDE that will honor my dear friend Alex MacRae, who was killed, like so many locals here have been, by an inattenitive car driver. This bull chet has to STOP!!! ‘Chise

God’s Corner
SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY GOD
Their foot shall slide in due time (Deut. 32:35).
In this verse is threatened the vengeance of God on the wicked unbelieving Israelites, who were God’s visible people, and who lived under the means of grace; but who, notwithstanding all God’s wonderful works towards them, remained (as ver. 28.) void of counsel, having no understanding in them. Under all the cultivations of heaven, they brought forth bitter and poisonous fruit; as in the two verses next preceding the text. The expression I have chosen for my text, Their foot shall slide in due time, seems to imply the following doings, relating to the punishment and destruction to which these wicked Israelites were exposed.
That they were always exposed to destruction; as one that stands or walks in slippery places is always exposed to fall. This is implied in the manner of their destruction coming upon them, being represented by their foot sliding. The same is expressed, Psalm 73:18. “Surely thou didst set them in slippery places; thou castedst them down into destruction.”
2. It implies, that they were always exposed to sudden unexpected destruction. As he that walks in slippery places is every moment liable to fall, he cannot foresee one moment whether he shall stand or fall the next; and when he does fall, he falls at once without warning: Which is also expressed in Psalm 73:18, 19. “Surely thou didst set them in slippery places; thou castedst them down into destruction: How are they brought into desolation as in a moment!”
3. Another thing implied is, that they are liable to fall of themselves, without being thrown down by the hand of another; as he that stands or walks on slippery ground needs nothing but his own weight to throw him down.
4. That the reason why they are not fallen already, and do not fall now, is only that God’s appointed time is not come. For it is said, that when that due time, or appointed time comes, their foot shall slide. Then they shall be left to fall, as they are inclined by their own weight. (Pg.12)

God will not hold them up in these slippery places any longer, but will let them go; and then at that very instant, they shall fall into destruction; as he that stands on such slippery declining ground, on the edge of a pit, he cannot stand alone, when he is let go he immediately falls and is lost. The observation from the words that I would now insist upon is this. “There is nothing that keeps wicked men at any one moment out of hell, but the mere pleasure of God.” By the mere pleasure of God, I mean his sovereign pleasure, his arbitrary will, restrained by no obligation, hindered by no manner of difficulty, any more than if nothing else but God’s mere will had in the least degree, or in any respect whatsoever, any hand in the preservation of wicked men one moment.
The truth of this observation may appear by the following considerations. There is no want of power in God to cast wicked men into hell at any moment. Men’s hands cannot be strong when God rises up. The strongest have no power to resist him, nor can any deliver out of his hands.—He is not only able to cast wicked men into hell, but he can most easily do it. Sometimes an earthly prince meets with a great deal of difficulty to subdue a rebel, who has found means to fortify himself, and has made himself strong by the numbers of his followers.
But it is not so with God. There is no fortress that is any defence from the power of God. Though hand join in hand, and vast multitudes of God’s enemies combine and associate themselves, they are easily broken in pieces. They are as great heaps of light chaff before the whirlwind; or large quantities of dry stubble before devouring flames. We find it easy to tread on and crush a worm that we see crawling on the earth; so it is easy for us to cut or singe a slender thread that any thing hangs by: thus easy is it for God, when he pleases, to cast his enemies down to hell.
What are we, that we should think to stand before him, at whose rebuke the earth trembles, and before whom the rocks are thrown down? They deserve to be cast into hell; so that divine justice never stands in the way, it makes no objection against God’s using his power at any moment to destroy them. Yea, on the contrary, justice calls aloud for an infinite punishment of their sins. Divine justice says of the tree that brings forth such grapes of Sodom, “Cut it down, why cumbereth it the ground?” Luke 13:7. The sword of divine justice is every moment

brandished over their heads, and it is nothing but the hand of arbitrary mercy, and God’s mere will, that holds it back.
3. They are already under a sentence of condemnation to hell. They do not only justly deserve to be cast down thither, but the sentence of the law of God, that eternal and immutable rule of righteousness that God has fixed between him and mankind, is gone out against them, and stands against them; so that they are bound over already to hell. .

The Great Daytona Visor Crackdown (Satire???)
It was a perfect cruising afternoon on Main Street Daytona Beach during Daytona Bike Week. The air smelled like sunscreen, gasoline, hot rubber, and questionable life choices. Bikes crawled down the strip, engines rumbling like distant thunder, stereos blasting everything from classic rock to bass so heavy it was probably loosening bolts on nearby street signs.
I was doing what every biker does in Daytona… rolling along in first gear for hours while covering the distance of about two parking spaces. Then it happened. A police officer standing near the curb waved me down and motioned for me to pull aside.
Now normally during Bike Week if someone gets flagged over on Main Street it’s for one of the usual classics:
• Revving the engine like you’re trying to start a NASCAR race • Stereo loud enough to make nearby seagulls relocate • Burnouts turning the street into a smoke machine • Someone forgetting they’re on a cruiser and trying to do sport bike activities, But not this afternoon.
The officer walked up, looked directly at my helmet, and said: “Sir, do you know why I waved you over?” I honestly had no clue. Then he said it.
“Your visor is open and tint is too dark.” I paused.
“My visor… is open, tint too dark?”
“Yes sir. Illegal Visor Tent.” I tried not to laugh.
He then explained that this year they’re not just cracking down on loud music, revving engines, and burnouts. Apparently there’s a whole new high-tech approach to law enforcement happening on Main Street Daytona Beach.
Turns out the street have cameras now.
According to the officer, the cameras are connected to some fancy AI system that helps identify criminals using facial recognition. The system scans riders as they cruise by… but it can only work if it can see your face.
Which means if you ride by with a clear visor, the AI system gets a nice clean look at you.
So basically, somewhere in a control room there’s a computer watching thousands of bikers roll past thinking: “Enhance… enhance… yep, that guy bought funnel cake twice today.”
Meanwhile, as he’s explaining all this, bikes are rumbling. But me? I’m standing there on the side of the road getting a lecture about advanced camera systems and the dangers of open visors.
The officer finally nods and sends me on my way.
I pull back into the slow-moving parade of motorcycles, engines rumbling, music blasting.
But thankfully… the streets are a little safer now. Because somewhere in the system, the AI almost got a really good look at me.
All thanks to my dangerously open visor. Written By Wess Smith
