Heigh-ho the Merry-oh, Deporting We Will Go
Interesting times, methinks. We have Mr. Trump, per the Washington Examiner, vowing to rid the country of illegal immigrants by rounding them up, storing them in concentration camps, and deporting them at “millions per year.” Saith Mr. Trump to the Conservative Political Action Conference, “Under my leadership, we will use all necessary state, local, federal, …
Floydian Slips Thoughts on the Death of a Curious Saint
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_George_Floyds In my police-reporting days Question: Was their anything racial in Floyd’s death? That is, is there any reason to believe that if Floyd had been a white petty criminal and drug addict, but otherwise identical to Floyd, would Chauvin have behaved differently? Accounts differ. By some he is said to have been …
On the Probable Salutary Effects of a More Proactive Approach to Schooling
Life is hard in the column racket, I tell you. The work load is crushing. Every week I get many hundreds of emails (well, OK, I would if I did, but this is close enough for journalism) asking, Fred, Fred, what beneficial and meritorious measures will you enact when you become dictator? What will you …
A White Imperium Ain’t Gonna Happen. Maybe a Backyard Barbecue Would Be a Better Idea
In the media there is much noise about “white extremists,” a group said to be a threat to our (largely imaginary) democracy. There indeed exists an ill-defined collection of racial advocates covering a spectrum from militias in the woods of Idaho to groups calling themselves the Dissident Right, Alt Right, Race Realists (they are not), …
Fred and Loathing on the Campaign Trail, and a Vote for Trump
I despise Trump. He is a mean-spirited son of a bitch. His licking the boots of those revolting pseudo-Cubans in Miami and increasing sanctions, utterly unjustified, on Havana, are grounds enough for putting him behind bars. Trying to starve thirty million Venezuelans into giving up control of their oil, trying to assassinate Maduro are grounds …
Slavery
Slavery in American history has come into vogue among those of much political enthusiasm but the intelligence of box turtles and little knowledge of the matter. I sometimes think that America should institute a system of public education, but apparently this is not going to happen. Anyway, a few thoughts of possible interest: Whites didn’t …
The Lingering Effects of Slavery: An Objective Analysis
Troubled youth. The lingering effects of slavery Probably need therapy. I keep hearing blacks saying how we need and open and honest conversation about race, and oppression, and the lingering effects of slavery. Well, I guess. I’ve sort of thought that too. Of course, I could guess who they wanted to do all the talking. …
Drugs, a Misunderstood Industry
It’s funny. For the better part of a century we have had the Drug War, useful to politicians, heavily funded, but producing no results. Prices of drugs have remained about the same or gone down. Drugs are one of those things like poverty and climate change that everybody is against but that never change. The …
Thoughts, Not Obsessively organized, on Diversity, an Atrocious Idea
Living as I do near Guadalajara I do not, thank God, see much television from the Great Squirrel Cage north of Mexico. When I do, I get the impression that America is four-fifths black and that all white women have black husbands. Whites apparently do not marry each other. My information is unreliable, but it appears that …
Of Army Ants and Pit Bulls: The Biological Roots of War
The biological–that is, genetic—roots of human behavior have been a disputed matter at least since The Bell Curve, most heatedly regarding race. The measure of racial intelligence has been the sharpest focus with psychometrists universally, as far as I can determine, ranking races by IQ as Ashkenazi Jews, East Asians, whites, Latinos, and blacks. While …
