So here’s the deal: In order to make something ‘more inclusive’ you have to take something out.

Got it? Good. You now understand ‘inclusion and diversity’. Go ye out and spread the Word.

Pizza Delivery Man Arrested and Turned Over to ICE While Delivering Pies to Military Base, Officials Say

6th June 2018

Read it.

Military officials stopped Pablo Villavicencio – an immigrant from Ecuador and father of two – after he delivered pizza to the Fort Hamilton Army base on Friday, according to New York City Councilman Justin Brannan.

When Mr Villavicencio failed to provide adequate identification, Mr Brannan said, the officers passed him to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The 32-year-old remained in ICE custody on Monday, pending his removal from the country.

Wondering when these guys will cotton to the fact that ‘illegal’ means ‘subject to arrest and deportation’. This elementary knowledge doesn’t appear able to cross the blood/brain barrier with some people.

Eric Adams, the borough president for Brooklyn, said Mr Villavicencio’s arrest set a “dangerous precedent”.

Um, let’s see: Enforcing the law is a ‘dangerous precedent’. Yeah, that guy’s a Democrat.

“It is unimaginable that a person can go from a pizza to prison,” he said at a press conference.

I have no problem imagining that.

An ICE spokesperson confirmed Mr Villavicencio had been detained, and was being held in custody pending his removal. The spokesperson said Mr Villavicencio had failed to comply with a 2010 voluntary departure order and was considered a fugitive.

Sounds pretty cut-and-dried to me. I’d be inclined to send Eric Abrams along with him.

The World as It Wasn’t

2nd June 2018

Read it.

Apparently Obama had read a column—I have an idea of which one—about the role of identity in shaping peoples’ lives and political choices. “Maybe we pushed too far,” he mused. “Maybe people just want to fall back into their tribe.” No question his fellow passengers that day reassured him that no, no, he did everything he could to bend the arc of history a little more toward justice. It’s not your fault, Mr. President. You didn’t push too far. All you did was troll Donald Trump into running for president in the first place, stand by while Ferguson and Baltimore rioted and burned, give Iran billions in exchange for empty promises, allow Russia to establish a beachhead in the Middle East for the first time in half a century, browbeat Israel at every opportunity, ram through Obamacare after Scott Brown’s election in Massachusetts, preside over the mass migration of children across the southern border in 2014, expand the DACA amnesty despite saying 22 times you lacked authority to do so, use the permanent structure of government to devastate the Appalachian economy, convince half of America that liberals were ready to take their guns (this wasn’t hard to do), have your Education Department issue orders that led to the campus-assault craze and the deterioration of classroom discipline and that, months before a presidential election, mandated trans-bathrooms in schools, have your Justice Department preside over a sloppy (I’m being charitable) investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server that included, at one point, your attorney general secretly meeting with the husband of the subject of the investigation on an airport tarmac, muscle out Joe Biden, who might have won, from the race, and hand the party back to the less-likable half of America’s most polarizing and corrupt political couple.

Similarly, the Obama Administration stoked the Fake News hysteria about Ferguson, which helped cause the total number of homicides in the United States to jump a striking 20% from 2014 to 2016. But who knows that statistic?

NYT: Immigrants Will Repopulate Small Towns!

21st May 2018

Steve Sailer pulls back the curtain.

Immigration is so often sold in the Anglosphere like this: as a way to revitalize depopulating small towns. Yet, immigrants themselves overwhelmingly prefer to flock to the big, expensive cities of Australia, Canada, and the U.S., exacerbating the affordable housing crisis.

For example, when there was a huge energy boom in North Dakota a few years ago, the new arrivals were predominantly Americans. Immigrants don’t want to move to Hicksville, USA, and if they have to, it’s only until they can move to the big city.

Filipinos in the US, for instance, have been flocking to the bright lights of Las Vegas, contributing to the 2008 Housing Bubble/Burst there. Filipinos don’t want to live in some rural Nowheresville, they want to live close to the MGM Grand Arena where Senator Manny Pacquiao fights Floyd Mayweather.

E&E News reported the U.S. and allies could end up electrifying North Korea with coal-fired power to take advantage of the country’s vast reserves of high-quality coal. But is anyone really worried about the carbon dioxide emissions from increasing North Korea’s standard of living?

“Next we’re going to hear about how Venezuela’s carbon emissions are going down because socialism works so well,” Kish quipped.

Read it.

I often ask myself how much it would cost to hire some beta-male loser from a rural high school to hold a shooting party at a mainstream-media studio — say, the one where Kimmel tapes his shows.

Hmm. Airfare … hotel … meals … cab fare … weapons and ammunition … I’ll bet it could be done for $5ooo or less.

Hmmmm.

Perhaps one could kill two ‘birds’ with one stone (so to speak) and hire some MS-13 guys to do it; they’re pretty much already on site.

Hmmmmmmm.
