…and lest ye forget, this is the home town of the President.

(Via WZ) At least nine people were killed and 28 others wounded in a spate of shootings since Friday night in Chicago, according to local reports.

The most recent shooting death occurred on Sunday afternoon in the city’s South Side, where a 19-year-old was shot from a passing vehicle, according to the Sun-Times Media Wire.  The man died in the hospital after the 2:50 p.m. (3:50 p.m. ET) shooting, the Sun-Times Media Wire reported.

At least 17 people were shot, one fatally, from 6 p.m. Saturday to 6 a.m. Sunday alone, according to the Chicago Tribune. (more…)

(Via SBPDL)  The Warriors is movie in dire need of a re-make. Made in 1979, the movie is a tale of rival gangs in New York City and, well, isn’t a good movie.

Based on a book by Sol Yurick, the director and casting agents of The Warriors was forced to add white characters to the eponymous gang because Paramount (which would be distributing the film) didn’t think an all-Black cast would have any “commercial appeal.”
Yurick’s book doesn’t have a white character, and the re-make of The Warriors should try and be as true to the source material as possible.

With one exception: move the location of the gang-war to Chicago, a city already besieged by the type of violence Yurick wrote about. More to the point, the participants are already the correct racial hue.

The violence in Chicago has been documented here – and here, here, and here – on many occasions (and at VDare), but the night of August 23 and the morning of August 24 broke new ground. (more…)

There is something going on, something odd, with returning combat military soldiers.   They are closely tracked, there is a concerted and coordinated following of their activity, and, in many cases, odd interventionist steps by the federal government via law enforcement to remove/restrict their assimilation into mainstream society.

I don’t know how to connect all these seemingly random, yet not disparate, dots into a cogent discussion thread, but something is definitely afoot.   Something.

We saw it recently with the former Marine who was removed from his home for a facebook post questioning government; and in a larger sense, that one example does not stand alone.  Located within various chat-rooms, websites, patriot corners etc. etc. you will find multiple examples of government officials taking custody of veterans under various auspices, mostly psychological concerns.

This is beyond ridiculously frustrating, way beyond.

People need to wake up to how manipulative the media is regarding race avoidance when the criminal is black.   This really is taking Political Correctness to new levels of insufferable intent.

The latest example is the murder of Megan Boken which we highlighted here last week.

Several news media outlets are reporting on the perpetrators of the shooting death of Megan being captured, arrested, and now facing prosecution.   But who are they?  and more importantly why are their mugshots not included in any article?

The simple Occam’s Razor answer is that the murderers once again are black, the victim is white, and so the media -out of some insufferable political correctness and avoidance- will not reflect the race of the perpetrators.

Are the murderers black?    YOU DECIDE…..    Here are the links to the story.   See if you can figure it out: (more…)

On August 15th former Marine Brandon Raub was arrested by the local police and FBI for comments he made on his Facebook page.   Yes, he was arrested specifically, and only, for comments made on his Facebook page.  (more…)

(Examiner.com)  This week, California officials announced that they will begin issuing driver’s licenses to those illegal aliens receiving legal status under President Obama’s ‘deferred action.’

Since 1993, it has been illegal for anyone other than “a citizen or legal resident of the United States under federal law,” to obtain a California driver’s license. That measure was signed into law by Republican Gov. Pete Wilson.

However, as a result of Obama’s executive order amnesty, hundreds of thousands, possibly even millions of illegal aliens will suddenly become ‘legal’ residents. Therefore, Democrat Gov. Jerry Brown felt the need to grant them licenses.

The move basically discards the nearly two decades-old statute. (more…)

Oathkeepers ?

WASHINGTON – Saying they’re fed up with being told they can’t do their jobs, 10 immigration agents on Thursday sued the Obama administration to try to halt the president’s new non-deportation policy and an earlier memo instructing them not to go after rank-and-file illegal immigrants.

The lawsuit, filed in a federal court in Texas, adds a legal controversy to the political fight that has been brewing over President Obama’s immigration policies, which have steadily narrowed the range of immigrants the government is targeting for deportation.

The 10 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents and deportation officers said Mr. Obama’s policies force them to choose between enforcing the law and being reprimanded by superiors, or listening to superiors and violating their own oaths of office and a 1996 law that requires them to demand proof of legal status from those they suspect are not in the country legally.

The socialist society known as Greece is ramping up its effort at detention and deportation of illegals.  This is a historically specific consequence of progressive ideology running its full course.

In ideologically progressive society the economic “pie” is seen as static.  The pie must be apportioned or shared to create “fairness” in wealth or capital distribution.

When the government runs out of money from the production class, gained from forced confiscation of wealth (taxation) from the productive members of society, the government takes steps to reduce the dependent class aiming first at those defined as “least deserving”. (more…)

DELAWARE – Authorities suspended a day care center’s license and operations, pending a hearing, after three employees allegedly encouraged two 3-year-olds to fight each other.

Police say the alleged incident took place in March at Hands of Our Future day care in Dover, Del. and surfaced this weekend when it was shown to a police officer, The News Journal reports.

In the video, a child is heard crying and yelling, “he’s pinching me,” to which a day care worker responds, “no pinching, only punching,” CBS Philly reports.

“Clearly one of the children is crying and does not want to continue on and he is being pushed back into the fray by one of the adults,” Dover Police Capt. Tim Stump told the station. (more…)

Earlier last year I presented an image  of the Prog Utopia (seen below).   Many thought it was over-the-top and a little “out there” regarding their ideology.

(CNSNews.com) – Mayor Michael Bloomberg of New York said last week that the federal government should assign immigrants to live in cities such as Detroit and “if they survive seven years” make them citizens.

“All the federal government’s got to do is say, ‘We’re gonna welcome here in this country–first come, first served–families, if they’re willing to come here under the following terms,: Bloomberg said in Boston on Aug. 14. “We’re going to assign you a city–let’s say Detroit–you got to agree to not be arrested and not take any federal, state or city money, and you’ve got to live there for seven years, and if you survive seven years, we’ll make you and your family full citizens.”

Bloomberg was speaking along with News Corporation Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch at a forum sponsored by the New England Council. (more…)
