update : count of children is higher than 416- http://gosanangelo.com/news/2008/apr/22/judge-urges-case-by-case-considerations-new-more/

…all totalitarianisms try to control sex and reproduction one way or another..the regime is busily exterminating nuns, Baptists, Quakers and so forth in the same way the Bolsheviks exterminated the Mensheviks…the free choice of a loved one — when denied by a regime or a culture — is going to happen anyway… I would like to congratulate the students, parents and teachers who have supported the use of my book in Advanced Placement courses. They have aligned themselves against the censors, book-banners and book-burners throughout the ages and have stood up for open discussion and a free expression of opinion — which, last time I looked, was still the American way, though that way is under pressure. -

Thus spake Margaret Atwood, writer of a novel which takes place in a dystopian future, in what has been described as a feminist novel, outlining the results of what many interpreted to be ‘Patriarchy Gone Wild’. However, beyond the male/female dynamic that in this novel have been all but drive underground and repressed lies the idea of the Totalitarian State. Big Brother. Is it here already , Margaret?

FLDS: Government Hate Crime Victims

~~~~Mothers who brought babies and young children onto their own cots to cuddle and comfort were told to put them back in cribs, the women said. http://blogs.sltrib.com/plurallife/

The women said they learned from their attorneys yesterday that Walther had relented and asked CPS to let nursing mothers remain with their children. Velvet woke at 2 a.m. Thursday and began making a list of women who were breast-feeding. She gave the list to a lead CPS worker ‘’so she would know which children could stay with their mothers.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Like many people watching the news and trying to make sense of what I hear from a perspective not that of the mainstream, I was astonished at the speed and efficiency of which the raids on this ranch/homes were conducted. Having heard that there in all likelihood was no ‘Sarah’, a troubled teen living under the (albeit fictionalized) oppressive thumb of the FLDS , a teen who allegedly asked for help in order to escape- I can only come to some conclusions regarding why, during a time of war, illegal invasion and the dollar’s decline, it is important to expend so much time , money and energy conducting a modern-day witch hunt upon fundamentalist Mormons. In general, people only work with what they are given, operating from a standard of “Well, what do the pundits say? The CNN anchorperson said X, it must be true, they must be right, because they are the bestowers of Truth as We Know it “. Don’t trust TV. Think for yourself. Go deeper. Like the windows explorer, keep hitting the little folder with the ‘up’ arrow to take it to the next level.

I believe the reasons are not what the TV says they are. Now they are saying the call was most likely a hoax, “but there are girls there that fit the description”, so that makes it OK. I suppose if I call up saying I am a 14 year old in the ghetto and my mom is on crack and leaves every night to turn tricks while I care for the other younger siblings, there would be a raid on Hunter’s Point, San Francisco. Or I could say I was in the mountains of Appalachia, and had no shoes, and my mother was lying drunk in the railroad car we live in, and it wasn’t just me, everyone was like this here. What is the difference between one group of similar people living together in close quarters and another? Children are in danger, are they not? But no, there will be no raids in San Francisco, the city that calls itself a sanctuary city for illegals. There are already too many of their children sitting in foster care as is.

They aren’t worried about those people, as was evidenced by Katrina and the lack of/slow response, but we are supposed to believe that what amounts to child kidnapping in Texas resulted from a phone call. That none of this was planned , it all just sort of happened that week. As I said, don’t believe the TV. Sure it is possible that it could have happened like that, and the government certainly has the resources, but why SHOULD you believe it happened as they told you, just because it is THEY who told you? This is not really a case of “What about the children?” I can hear in my head the predictable pap regurgitated down the gullets of college youth, who will parrot back in response:

” Yes teacher ,it is all about the systems of oppression of women and children, even when it really isn’t them making the fake call for help. We must take a stand against abuse! We must rescue children from clean-living, well-taken-care of circumstances. We must stop them from wearing feminine Little-House-on-the-Prairie clothing. It’s really about ‘gender inequities’. It’s about ’social justice’ ,it’s about freeing the cheeldrrun from their ‘oppressively wholesome’ ranch. Yes, they need to be in foster homes, away from their real mother(s), where they can eat Cheeto’s and watch MTV and American Idolatry, and act like a Real American “

The White Male (and his family) is dead! Long Live The State!

These groups have been around a long time, the official split from LDS happened in the 1930’s but they were living the same way they long before that. they were the original LDS. So, this leads me to ponder.. what criteria have they only now met to warrant these raids, the taking away of children from their parents? Are they being made an example, as in “Don’t think you can get away with existing outside the mainstream, we will get you eventually.” Or like the new CA homeschooling law requiring parents to have a teaching credential, is it Big Brother looking towards the future and seeing a threat down the road? Is it trying to STOP something or PREVENT something? Is it a coincidence a man with an LDS background ran for president? About now is when I will be accused of having a tin-foil hat, that nothing is related, that depriving parents of their rights, from schooling to even be parents of their children is going down the garden path and that path is not eh yellow brick road, but Red.

Things aren’t exactly going swimmingly in America these days, in case you haven’t noticed. We are entrenched in a war with Iraq, the dollar is declining, illegals are invading and causing hospitals to close, over-taxing social programs, property values are falling, banks are in trouble, kids are failing high school exit exams, weird diseases we thought were a thing of the past are coming back, like multi drug resistant TB, there seems no end to the drive-by shootings that pepper the streets of the inner city -the list goes on and on. How do we respond to this? Do we become more afraid, in the shadow of Big Brother flexing his muscle upon these people? Do we conform and become ever-quieter? In the words of the vilified FLDS, do we ‘keep sweet’ and take it?

First they came for the home schoolers, and I did not speak, because I was not a home schooler- then they came for the FLDS…

I can say it is likely most nationalists sympathize with the plight of FLDS, as we too feel we have been robbed of our own children’s future, if not their present as these more than 416, I believe the count is up to 460 something- children have been . The freedom of association, the freedom to live with whom we wish, live as we wish, to accept or reject the mainstream, to practice whatever religion we wish. We see the loss of your children/women as a direct and symbolic distillation of the loss we feel in losing our country and what it once stood for. The loss of the freedom to believe as we wish, harming no one and raising our children the way we see fit, without government regulation and interference.

We see your loss not unlike suffering from a terminal illness and we are all sick with it. Does it hurt? Yes it does, it hurts us physically by  putting us under threat of violence and hurting the income earning potential of the head of households ,by illegals sucking up blue collar construction and white-collar  being outsourced, mom and pop stores being shut down by big-box competition. More people who shouldn’t be here create more pollution, noise, garbage, illnesses we have long eradicated. It hurts us mentally, the stress of having to live around  people who have no concept of  quiet and privacy, of indoor and outdoor life , thinking disturbing others constantly is  just the ‘thing to do’, and ‘hey, tolerate me or you suck, you’re a hater.’  It hurts us  in every way possible- it is hurting us ALL, not only the FLDS, they are just an easy target to go after directly. Having to assimilate to THEM hurts our collective soul, makes  us sick, depressed, breaks our heart that the things that caused us to once develop new cures, create works of art, inventions, architecture- is being killed off- how do we find those things within ourselves to share with the world, when we have had the equivalent of a racial root canal-the living pulp scraped out and covered over with pretend patriotism, suicidal tolerance,  and obsessive-compulsive adherence to this made-up new bible called Political Correctness?

We watch not only our freedoms fall away, like the hair of a chemo patient- but we also are watching our possibilities of choice fall away- even if we play the game, pay our taxes, have a small amount of kids, spend every free moment earning and buying ,even the chance to do that has been usurped by all this untrammeled immigration and minority quotas regardless of merit, laws that try to be ‘fair’ but in actuality don’t really help anyone, just by making things look ‘equal’ - looking isn’t being. Just because someone says ., “Ok, I’ve waved my magic wand, now We , the Bestowers of Equal, have fixed it”, does not make it so.Yet they do their best to force us all together , hoping some of our ‘run-off’ will help those further down on the totem pole will benefit. One presidential candidate, one talk-show host, these figureheads of ‘equality’ do not equal make.

I would say the ‘magic’ method of equality-believers has failed miserably. The Equality Spell hasn’t truly helped those still ‘left behind’ , and has hurt (whites) us, who at least at one time, were the ones at the helm of this ship we call America. Big Brother does whatever it wants and calls it neat-o feel-good names in hopes that average people will also want to feel noble and good, whether the results work or make things worse. Has our lack of border control helped us? No, that’s the bad kind of tolerance, yet we go after FLDS with a vengeance , as if they are causing us problems en masse, which they are not. Will Big Brother now take away their community land, build condos and then call the evicted FLDS ‘terrorists’ when they are unhappy with the new deal?

This group had won the ‘opt-out’ game and is being punished and made an example of for it. Big Brother is not worried about other groups besides various sections of Whites doing this- when it is those other groups living in little ghetto-y clusters, they are usually entirely dependent upon the government, which is obviously OK with Big Brother. I’m pretty sure none of these other groups who have the unwed, young mothers, drug dealing, prostitution, men having many kids they don’t take care of and so on- they know those groups for whatever reasons don’t have any kind of collective ability to to build anything of substance of tehir own-they can only swim by the big shark and hope little bits of plankton fall out of the sharks mouth. It is highly unlikely Manuel Pablo Enrico Vargas, an anchor baby will run for President here anytime soon. The ‘token minority’ presidential candidate, he was not from ex-slave class, White Guilt-provoking, chip on shoulder, malapropism-using, prison, drugs, guns, ghetto-dwelling, no-daddy-knowing background. That said, I am disappointed Romney supports ‘100 year War’ McCain.

This despicable nightmare which the parents in FLDS are suffering through are victims of hate, this is related to what I wrote about a couple months ago re Hoarding Whiteness and homeschooling out here in CA, how the state is trying to take that right away from parents, and require parents to have the equivalent of a teaching certificate to educate their children. Can’t keep that Whiteness on the ranch all by yourselves. Big brother will think you are building another Lebensborn. Can’t have all kind of White kids being born and raised by their mothers . O.M.G. That is dangerous. They must be stopped. http://silentconsort.wordpress.com/2008/03/12/homeschooling-fight-thou-must-share-whiteness/

This is happening in America, the place that is supposed to be all about ‘tolerance’ and acceptance of differences- celebrate diversity no less. Well, this despicable nightmare in which the parents and children in FLDS are suffering is as hateful and intolerant as it gets, hence government Hate and Hypocrisy. Obviously , most of us were not raised on an FLDS ranch with more than one mother, Mormon or otherwise, but that is not the point. One doesn’t have to approve or condone of their religion or way of life to see that these people were not harming anyone and it is just plain wrong to come in and take their children away. They didn’t come in and ask the women and kids if they wanted to go, if they were being held against their will, if they felt oppressed or miserable or abused. This isn’t about choice, get it?

In the case of the FLDS, it is now the sickness of mourning - separation from those we love, the pain of knowing we can never go back or fit in without sacrificing what we believe inside, the tears and ache of longing to be and live closely with whom we love in the way we wish to because the system sets it up to be nigh-impossible, and continually having any chance or inroad one does make stripped away. If one says the wrong things, believes the wrong things, or as the 80’s self help book admonished , ‘love too much’ we lose it all, and can love no one. Don’t tell me who I can love, who I do love, how many kids I can have, who I should live with ,where I can live and what that should ‘look like’, what religion is or is not acceptable, how my kids should learn and with whom they should play.

You are not my family , Big Brother Commie-Feminist-Multi-Culti-Pseudogod. GET OFF MY LAWN! LEAVE US ALONE.

The more they vilify us and kick us, hoping to keep us down if not by the amount of lithium in our drinking water (look it up) and by the droning salve of TV, liturgical rants of the pundits about terror, default corporate greed, enforced multi-culti at any price agenda- the MORE ‘hate’ and separatism that breeds, not less. We LIKE being who we are, we don’t want to be racially, culturally, religiously, scholastically, mentally, and spiritually castrated, though they are trying to do their best to achieve this, sending our young men to die,taking a whole crop of young White kids out of the FLDS community to do gawd-knows-what with. Going to recruit them for the permanent war fixture in the middle east that we all know isn’t ‘just’ 100 years, but forever? Going to try and turn them into the next prepubescent TV teen queens and pretty wussy boys? I’m praying not. I’m hoping the Texas DHS will get class-action sued over what looks to me what can only have been a set-up.

The things we grew up believing about this country are constantly being undermined and chipped away. We are grateful we may still have our family or at least our children, if they have not already been absorbed by the mighty machine of the government/media/indoctrination. We don’t lose our children by government raids, we lose them insidiously, piece by piece by the systems that are set up that encourage them towards materialism, multiculturalism, television, loss of identity, religion, race, culture. We lose their future, as do they, and sadly , I do believe because of hose hell-bent on the destruction of Whites, we will lose not only the country, but all of the things that has made the entire world want what we have. We simply won’t have it anymore. ‘Land of the free..’should perhaps be marked with an * disclaimer that any and all rights are subjects to change, regardless of constitution.

We must ask ourselves, since it isn’t about the false pretexts they are using to destroy these people, what IS it really about? And why now? why them of all people, it isn’t like they are out there wrecking YOUR day-to-day life simply by existing, are they? Can one say that about other groups? White flight much? Watch it now, your hypocrisy is showing.

Hate Crimes Against FLDS

What this really boils down to is hate. People hate these American citizens for practicing their religion. People at Eldorado passed around hats with “ELDORADO: POLYGAMY CAPITAL OF TEXAS” on them.One person paraded around the entrance to the ranch in a grim reaper costume, and a song called “The Plural Girl Blues” has been written about the members in Eldorado. These things don’t just sound like hate to me, but hate crimes. http://tiny.cc/c8WQY

Kyle Martin, who wrote the above, is correct. This truly is a real hate crime being perpetrated against the members of this particular branch of the FLDS. They are taking children away , separating mothers from infants- why? Are the children being burned with cigarettes, being put in microwaves, eating rocks of crack cocaine, being tossed out hi-rise housing project windows, being abandoned in dumpsters? No, they are not.

http://captivefldschildren.org/Videos.php

The government uses vague claims of ‘abuse’ and underage mothers as the pretext to destroy families and community. The same government doesn’t care about underage mothers in the ghetto, whose children are living under much worse conditions, no fathers to be found to provide for, care for and raise their children, who are much worse off than FLDS kids, who have many healthy, strong , drug-free and loving women to care for them. By turn, these children are being cared for by mothers who share an investment in the children, the ones who are not directly their own being half-siblings or perhaps something akin to nieces and nephews. This cannot be said for the dual career yuppie couple, with all the toys, mortgage and SUV who are routinely featured on news stories having caught their nanny on secret cam letting their precious infants roll off sofas or being abused and neglected in various ways.

http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/2561722/ Yuppie couples employ women such as these to care for their twin infants,so that they can work and have all the toys,clothes, etc that they think will be important for little unisexually named progeny #1 and 2, but that is OK, while having more than one actual mother, is not.

FLDS are descendants of people who settled this country, they are citizens. Illegal aliens are breaking the law here, yet they are not separated from their children, let alone often deported. No one is conducting raids in mexican neighborhoods, either worried about underage mothers rampantly breeding anchor babies without the benefit of marriage , or about their lack of citizenship, or under what conditions the children are living in- young babies being cared for by 8 or 9 year old siblings, while the parents work crappy under the table jobs, or unofficial ‘day care’ homes, where none of the children get loving , personal attention- and collect food stamps and rent vouchers and head to the ER every time there is a health problem for free care. Leaving young children under the supervision of other children IS illegal, is it not?

How many stories can be found simply by typing in the word ‘baby’ into google news search. Here we find a multitude of horror stories featuring either murderous or neglectful mothers and mostly live-in step-father. Is that kind of thing happening on the FLDS ranch? Not by a long shot. Are these children being starved or denied medical care or living in foul, unhealthful conditions? No, this is not true either. Are these mothers in FLDS headed out to ‘da cluub’ to meet a boyfriend and leaving children home alone, sometimes for days whilst they are on a drug bender? Not a chance. So what are they doing that is so horrible they must be punished and their families and larger community destroyed?

That same question is being asked all over the blogosphere:

So, the question that needs answering, is why these three women are being kept from their children? What evidence is there they are unfit mothers, that they have abused their children? Texas doesn’t’t appear to have any such evidence. The only rational conclusion one can draw is that these women dress funny, they belong to an extremely unpopular religious movement, and they shun the modern cesspool we call American pop culture. So, since they are so powerless and unpopular Texas has seen fit to kidnap their children, hold them hostage and subject them to what likely is the most abusive environment yet–the ‘protective ‘care of the Texas Child Protective Services.

http://messengerandadvocate.wordpress.com/2008/04/14/texas-abuse-of-the-flds-children-and-mothers/

We have already established it isn’t the underage marriages, it isn’t horrible abusive conditions, it isn’t alcohol, drug or sexual abuse. So what is it that has made them a target? The above blogger has one thing especially correct- these people reject mainstream culture. Here are some of the reasons I believe have attracted the attention of Big Evil Government.

1) Race (the other groups live in non-traditional familial/marital arrangements and have rampant rates of underage childbearing, and no one conducts raids, but rather accepts it, and even apologize for it citing ‘cultural and religious differences’. FLDS is White, therefore FLDS must be Evil, Bad and Wrong.

2) FLDS cannot be said to be mainstream Judeo_Christian. Beliefs not in line with mainstream Christianity

3) Self-determination , free agency, self-sufficiency- While they may or may not accept help from the state/gov as far as welfare/food stamps, they have certainly created communities, housing, religious structures, etc. They live apart from the mainstream, and until this latest debacle, seem to have done well by it.

4) Patriarchy- The system, though on the day to day level is kept functioning through vast networks of women, at the top are men. This would be one reason the globalist/new world order/feminists etc would be against this system, it is headed by exclusively White men.

5) Rejection of System: Homeschooling , rejection of traditional judeo-Christian beliefs, unable to be absorbed by same, unable to fit into mainstream modern day LDS belief structure, whilst regular LDS struggles to discern whether Smith was correct in his beliefs and they are wrong in rejecting what they call ‘the principle’ or that if he was incorrect, then their entire foundation is built on ignoring that fact, and sweeping it conveniently under the rug- either way, FLDS gets shunted away to aunties, like an illegitimate child, though how they live is representative of the original, early LDS.

6) Rejection of Consumerism/pop-culture- Rejects contact with pop culture brainwashing: MTV, Prozac, face piercing, skanky clothes,celebrity obsession, not appearance obsessed, no TV, magazines that promote all kinds of unhealthy things- hence they are not good consumers because the TV tells you what you lack and what you should buy and be.

7) Marital Arrangements Unacceptable - So let me get this straight. Unwed ghetto teen mothers are OK, unwed teen illegals are OK, swingers are OK, politicians who pay hookers 5000 an hour are OK (well, they don’t have their children taken away) , serial relationships and/concurrent affairs are Ok, that other ‘poly’, polyamory is OK-even if all live together as if they are married and may or may not co-share/parent children is OK, gay marriage is Ok in at least a couple states, transgender parents are OK, adopting kids from other countries while being unmarried and/or polyamorous and/or gay is OK, but not FLDS.

Tolerance and Diversity People say these is OK , even for any parenting arrangement, but not this .

Do you see the Hypocrisy of ‘Tolerance’ ? Yeaahh, ‘tolerance’ is kind of a drag when it’s a one-way street. You tolerate me, or I sue or claim some kind of discrimination and get laws passed to make you tolerate me, and include me, but me tolerate you? Not a chance.

The Hypocrisy of ‘Tolerance’, kind of like :

US/Mexico border fence- Israeli border Wall

Sometimes ‘tolerance’ and ‘diversity ‘ is good , sometimes it’s not. Is that how it is? Some people , ‘We’ the people, will be told what kind of ‘diversity’ is OK and an Officially Licensed Product, and which kinds are not. You are a ‘good guy’ if you agree with Big Brother, and a dangerous, subversive element if you don’t. Organization. A structure that not only includes all of the things America won’t abide in its Hypocritically- Correct belief system, but that owns land, properties, churches, businesses,infrastructure.

9) Religion. Not modern day judeo-Christian friendly.

10) Possibly at least sympathetic to other ostracized cultures not on the Officially Approved as Acceptable American Political Belief System list.

Mormons, Muslims forge close ties

They see in each other a religion viewed with suspicion in U.S. and share an emphasis on the family-

“As the church grew into a global faith,” Green wrote in a 2001 essay, “its posture toward Islam became … more positive” until, today, “the two faiths have become associated in several ways, including Mormonism’s being called the Islam of America.”

Granted, not all FLDS may feel as this professor does, but this statement may be taken as some kind of a threat to approving of the never-ending war in Iraq, or the entire middle-east mess we have gotten ourselves into.

BYU professor Noel Reynolds :

“…there are many important elements of Mormon thought in which we feel closer to the followers of Muhammad than to the contemporary Christian culture in which we have been located since our beginning” (Reynolds quoted by Spencer Palmer, Mormons and Muslims

http://blog.mrm.org/

I am hoping writing about the hate crime by the US government against FLDS will bring more attention to the matter, and has helped the reader to explore other angles and explanations, get people to question and see the hypocrisy that is glaringly obvious in how the government operates and who they select to take down.

       Many of you might find the perusal of this site interesting, if not for the content in and of itself, then  perhaps finding material to lob at enemies. I’m there just  for the sheer fun of finding that there are names for some very weird things, and finding words I  have never heard of.  For example, an uromastix sounds vaguely like something you might find in the office lavatory, but  it’s actually a spiky tailed , ground-dwelling lizard.

How about ‘phoenicopter’ ?   Another name for flamingo.

Bet you didn’t know there was a word for this: cavernous voice of a patient heard over a patient’s lung cavity

There is! ‘caverniloquy  ‘ . You can thank me later, I know all this will be of great use to you.

The dread headache comes and goes, I’m wondering if it is this CRT screen or a sinus infection . There’s a residual pain where the headache drove its flag, as on Everest. “How’s your head , Mom?” he says, stumbling around, hair askew, lanky, though his Adam’s apple has begun to recede to normal proportions and his face is clearing thanks to some mail-order zit-killer. I no longer see the face of his progenitor in his, not for years- one that was structurally sound, but because of being orphaned, abuse in foster care, drugs, alcohol, eventually twisted into something rabid, accompanied by surly overtly upright bouncing gait of the working-class disenfranchised . I’ve managed to see my own face in my sons, the Josef Kramer-esque heavy browed stop-sign face 50 % DNA softened, he is becoming a man and a new animal. I have faith his intelligence, ambition, sense of perfection , anti-drug conviction, and the love and guidance he has received from all of our extended family helping to take care of him, each of us ended up specializing in this or that aspect of his raising, I am hoping this will help him avoid the worst traits of his particular Y chromosome.

These days , it’s not really hip to care about White Males, young or otherwise, unless they are in a box with an American flag draped over it, or killing Iraqis. The pendulum has swung and now it is not only considered undesirable to have your own kids, but to have a male child is not considered the big deal it once was- there’s no inheritance/land/title/power to hand down in many cases, there’s no family business so having another one of yourself of either gender, but especially male- is selfishly and uselessly redundant, while ‘luxury condos’ are not. You should be saving a female child in China from being aborted or left out to die in rice fields, or saving an African infant from genital mutilation and starvation. Giving birth to another White Male is ‘part of the problem’ to these Self-hate promoters of War, MTV, Meth Music, Rainbow EMO Fruity -Wuss Pebbles.

Was it the 80’s or 90’s when the concern over female children’s self-esteem became popular ? Books like Ophelia’s Daughters first of off floor of Oprah’s set, then off bookstore shelves. Cannot remember much being said about boys self-esteem. During that era , boys were the problem. The complaints were that teachers call on boys more often and boys get to talk more .Boys were better at science and math and somehow that was a conspiracy and someone’s fault. Waitresses and service staff address men first and look at them , but not at women and that was a slight to women, or even a minority who happened to not get addressed first, or get looked at . I was trained while young not to look men directly in the eye/face, my father said that doing so is taken as an invitation, that it was making oneself vulnerable to them, and if I didn’t do it I’d be safer. Though I wasn’t sure what he meant and asked what he meant by an ‘invitation’ , I trusted him when he said “an invitation to hurt you”.One culture may think it is stuck up and anti-social or even ‘racist’ to not look someone in the face or stare into their eyes, another raises their daughters not to do so to protect them.

There have been a few books about boys in recent years,some of which I have checked out since they were inevitably doomed to end up in the library throwaway/sale rack which I peruse frequently , and they did. Many were all about encouraging boys to be ..well, unboylike .Possibly these types of books did more harm than good- Some of these were basically manuals on how to encourage boys to be more like girls usually are. That’s like telling a dirt bike to be more like a cabriolet. The amount written for the masses about how males develop in a strong and healthy way is minuscule and irrelevant compared to the plethora of books encouraging Girl Power - and even that has creepily been co-opted by the myspace.TV/cartoon people, turning it into Girlz and Bratz, and Gurlz- sassy, skanky, Neo-Bratz Feminists. The idea being that Gurl Power can’t happen if boys are masculine, if boys have power. Oh, and the logical fallacy that Gurlz never had power before books and TV and feminism. That Gurlz can only be ‘anything they want, whee!’ when boys get out of the way and shut up. Then Gurlz get older, and whine about men who don’t want to grow up and be Men, when the BoyZ are now being told that it is great to be a teenager forever, and playing video games, skateboarding and wearing ones pants, wigger-style around ones knees is the thing to do. Boys can’t have anything for themselves anymore, if they do, it is being mean and sexist, and probably exploiting or oppressing someone in the process.

I happen to believe that although men do learn lots of things through women, they then share this with other men, SANS women, and thereby teach each other. Like water going through a charcoal filter. Whenever anyone these days speaks about men teaching other men, out come the Socrates and little boys, and stag films, and girlie clubs, as if that pretty much says it all. Well, no, there was that whole feminist/jobs/glass ceiling/secret work cadres. Men could have nothing of their own, especially Evil White Men. Anything where White People are gathering is Certainly Plotting Something Wicked. Maybe that is why they are ditching all these perfectly good books at the libraries, perfectly good readers that I was brought up on, stories, fairy tales- all kaput, except for my growing collection that is. Back to the tree house, the logical fallacy that, if women aren’t there , among the Bohemians in the Grove, that means they are ‘forced back to the kitchens’ . Can’t we let the boys have something to call their own? Men can’t take what we give them and hash it out among themselves if we never let them. They love us because we are not them, not in spite of the fact. Get it? That lame stuff some men say about wanting a buddy they can screw, that is part of their new castrati mental status, which is much worse off than ancient Greece or stag clubs.

I try to test my anti-buddy stance, to see if it is ‘not you, but me’ , that something is indeed wrong with me because I do not wish to be a ‘buddy’, perhaps cannot be a ‘buddy’. Like the practice of calling ones parents by their first names,it creeps me out. This kind of nonsense is another branch of the equality tree, which continues to drop more logical fallacy fruit. If you don’t have an egalitarian relationship, it’s bad. Men are not men, parents are not parents. white is not white, we are all just whatever we invent ourselves to be, and we can cast off the oppressive mantel of our unfortunate birth and fly free. When I was a kid and watched Sesame Street and heard those annoying puppets singing about “you can be anything you want, la de da”, I knew it was crap . I knew I was never going to be an astronaut or a bounty hunter or a basketball player or an astrophysicist . OK so maybe I didn’t know what bounty hunters or astrophysicists were then, but I knew certain facts. I couldn’t be a boy, a daddy or a man, a cowboy, a fireman, a policeman, etc., and I didn’t want to be anyway, even if there were firepersons or police persons or cow persons. John Wayne is cool, Jane Wayne is butch.

So, I do my best to undo whatever school and TV tries to do, we play the game of recognizing BS in mass media, everything from TV to magazines to custom license plates, we look at , examine for signs of poop culture , and dispense with. They are getting so good at seeing this stuff they now point it out to me. So check it out, Reality Deniers, we’ve got your number. Every day I work with not only my own kids but others as well , to get them to see the difference between Real and B.S. in daily life. That is a much stronger concept to teach than ‘this certain thing is a lie, that certain thing doesn’t make sense’. Critical thinking skills will destroy the whole White Male Guilt Trip Industry.

So I talk to my son about how he is part of a doubly unprotected group, that of the White Male, and even worse, the Intelligent White Male, privileged Grey matter , as it were . We talk about all these catch phrases like ‘level playing field’ and ‘equality’ and ‘justice’ and ‘hate’. I teach both my boys about aggression and self-control, and that not all aggression is a bad thing. Niceness isn’t required and in others it is only a skill. Niceness does not equal Goodness. I teach them that contrary to the movies on the Ovulation Channel, the opposite of being a violent, crazed assh*le is not being an emo-f*g. You can be masculine and not be a psycho or a posturing jock. In fact being masculine will help you NOT to be a psycho, contrary to what pop crapture would have one believe. I teach them to be confident and about freedom, and not the kind of freedom that the corrupt govt is trying to get them to believe in so they can die. The kind of freedom to go after what they want , and if that measn work, or school or business, whatever it is, but I certainly warn them about the forces working against them, and how the new system will try and make them feel bad about themselves and guilt trip them endlessly, because they are White Males.

What words actually mean and how they have been co-opted by the Marxian/Fasco-Liberal/ Equality-Enforcers, and how pretend equality is just that. Pretend, bestowed equality isn’t even, as a crazy friend of my parents who followed EST guru Werner Erhard would say ‘ a value judgment’ . This or that group is not inherently bad because they have not caught-up- we have to recognize that we cannot write a patch , like Microsoft does to fix these things,that these magical programs aren’t yielding fruit, we have to “own that”, which is Erhard-speak for accept or face facts, admit a truth. I asked this guy when I was like 8 or so, “you need someone to tell you to do that? Your mom didn’t tell you that?” The adults had a good laugh over this, which pissed me off as I thought they were laughing at me.

He asks me how can people deal with the fact that they are being let in, but actually ‘faking it’? I tell him it is natural for people to want more that what they have, to want to be more, know more- aspirations, competition, but to get there on talent or merit is not always possible on an unadjusted , real playing field. Having to make laws to let people in , make things easier is against natural selection, where the cream rises to the the top. This concept of the playing field is not fairness. Fairness would be doing the best you can, period, win some , lose some. There are plenty of people who could use some help, they just aren’t deemed worthy of help. A huge problem is there’s no in-between help. You either are almost third world and you get everything free or you are one of the working diogs who is taxed to death who funds the whole system, or you are so rich you don’t care. The hard truth is that we aren’t all equally good at stuff, yes, even among white people, take affirmative action, race or social justice whatever out of it. Just a fact, even when you control for age, socio-economic backgrounds, age, education, someone is going to be naturally more gifted than you, and some will be less. I tell him that in the old days, it was a contest of not exactly but close to equals, and you would get super-quality out of it. The let everyone in, give everyone a chance mentality lowers the bar, stops excellence and advancement in its tracks.

The Give Everyone a Chance , and not through merit- those people want to believe that we are all inherently handed the same gifts and flaws, only this or that group just hasn’t been given a foot in the door. Thousands of years of civilization, culture and evolution don’t count for jack to those people, and even if they acknowledge that truth, hey think they are magic, that they can invent magical programs to somehow inject those hundreds of thousands of years of culture, evolution and civilization into other groups, when we know that is not something that happens overnight. Seriously, how does one capture people in the wild, used to hunting and gathering to sustain life, engaged in tribal warfare, enslave them , free them, then expect them to assimilate into 9-5 , Wal-mart consuming drones/worker bees? Or worse, expect them to become molecular scientists? Are we insane?

So I tell my own boys, you DON’T have to save the world. Save yourselves first, because they are after you. I tell them I will throw myself in the road to protect them, but they also have to learn to protect themselves and sniff out when danger is afoot, to teach them to pick up when messages, however covertly are being put across that they should hate themselves for being the Eternally Evil White Man, doomed to CondemNation forevermore. I teach them about when you do something wrong, you make up for it, you make your restitution, but you do NOT destroy everything in place because of it. We talked about this and slavery using legos and lego people as teaching tools. My almost grown son observing this prob got as much out of it as the little one. “See, we made a very bad mistake here, but we don’t put all the legos in the blender or throw them in a bowl, or melt them all together to fix it, do we? No, that would be dumb and make things worse. What if we gave these legos their own area and let them decide best how to live? What do you think of that? What if they decided that we werent so great after all , and went back over here where they started? what do you think of that?”

Friday night he presses my head and holds me as I cried from the pain in my head and showed me funny videos of people blowing up things in microwaves, Tesla coils, some guy eating dry ice- explains that plasma is the 4th stage of the breakdown of gas, solid, liquid. It is clear that he doesn’t care if I understand all his science talk, he just wants someone to tell it to. I’m finally getting that this is his way of loving me, showing me things he knows, inundating me with endless stores of recorded knowledge and things he creates. This late morning, he tells me I could have a brain tumor and that would explain a lot. Then he hugs me. Not wanting to say anything that could be interpreted as crazy, I hug him back and say gently, ” Oh my sweetie, that is so rare and unlikely, don’t worry for me”, to which he replies. “I know that. I’m not worried. Just saying, it’s a possibility,” then wanders off.

To be continued …just going to make a part II on a separate post working on now , will go in the rants/blogroll with the rest

81 percent of Americans think country on “wrong track”

 http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN0348141520080404?sp=true

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Four out of five Americans believe things are “on the wrong track” in the United States, the gloomiest outlook in about 20 years, according to a New York Times/CBS News poll released on Thursday.

The poll found that 81 percent of respondents felt “things have pretty seriously gotten off on the wrong track.” That was up from 69 percent last year and 35 percent in early 2003.

Klan to hold annual meeting in Arkansas.

Other groups continue to monitor white supremacist groups and their use of the internet. Founded in 1913, the Anti-Defamation League is one of the US’s largest and most well funded civil rights agencies. It was created after the Klan lynching of Leo Frank, a Jew convicted of the murder of a 13-year-old girl in Atlanta, Georgia, an event that revitalised the KKK in the South. Alongside dealing specifically with cases of anti-Semitism, the ADL continues to “track the activities” of numerous hate groups throughout the US and co-ordinate with law enforcement to eliminate hate crimes. The ADL’s director of investigative research, Mark Pitcavage, said: “In some ways, Robb has emerged as the public face of the Ku Klux Klan.”

The reason for this, Pitcavage says, is quite simple - the internet. “His website is accessed much more than other white supremacists,” Pitcavage said. Robb’s national leadership of the KKK is notable, as he is not as extreme as other lesser-known, more powerful Klan leaders. “Robb is definitely not one of the `gun in one hand, grenade in the other’ white supremacists that do exist … “Thom Robb was very quick to jump on new technology.” It is not, however, only Robb’s KKK chapter who are using the internet.

I come back from hours of digging dirt with shovels, directing a  team of 5-12 year olds to do same on a volunteer gardening project , I’m tired, hungry and sore, and then I see this BS story.

  Makes me sick to think good people will be keeping this crew alive on their hard earned tax money. Death penalty really needs to be overhauled.  Forced labor might be a good idea as well for DR inmates , rather than just existing being useless eaters.

Well, here goes- The latest debacle is the defense, prompted by one of the killers and the accomplice , are now trying to  drag said killer’s ex down with them.

Notice words they use like suspect, blame, etc., in reference to this ex-girlfriend, when THEY are the REAL , ACTUAL KILLERS.

  From last link, prob the most accurate - Jennings and Stone counter in their response that the only people pointing fingers of blame at Sutton are Davidson and Coleman. All evidence in the case tends to exonerate her, the pair wrote.

Boyd, charged only as an accessory to the fatal carjacking for helping hide out Davidson following the kidnapping, rape, torture and slaying of Christian, 21, and Newsom, 23, is set to stand trial before U.S. District Judge Tom Varlan on Monday. Lomonaco is asking Varlan to toss out the case, arguing Sutton also helped Davidson avoid arrest and may even have played a role equal to that of Coleman in the slayings.

This is what was found written on a construction site wall. See article for full story:

http://www.sfweekly.com/2008-03-26/news/building-racism/full

SF weekly outlines the black/mexican contractor battle-a multiculti clusterf&*k

Lawyer Salinas adds that the alleged statements from the warehouse meeting — that the bosses wanted to fire all the blacks and that the Latinos were “at war” with them — hark back to antidiscrimination cases of eras past, before employers knew to hide their racist hand. “To prove this, the jury just has to believe this statement is true, and it’s over,” he says. “Do you think it takes a trained legal expert to see these things were based on race?”

Gee, I thought race was a social construct. So, let me get this straight, sometimes it is, and sometimes it isn’t. It isn’t when White people notice race, like when it has to do with crime,  or when it has to do with school test scores, but isn’t when one is being oppressed by the man, but becomes real again when being oppressed by The Man, another not-so-minority, or a housing giant like AIMCO. This attorney’s whole case is based in race being real, or Hyper-Real, the jury agrees what the attorney purports has happened, then they too are saying Race is real.  The Emperor’s got more  clothes than Imelda has shoes! Well, in this lawsuit anyway. After they win, it goes back to not being real again, except when speaking of the case. Cake>eat>too, much?

 According to Gonzalo Aguilar’s testimony at a public hearing last month, Cunningham said the first problem was the “fucking union,” which he said often stopped their work because many workers didn’t have union cards. Cunningham said the second problem was the “pinches negros” (which translates roughly to “fucking niggers”).

Gregory Hall, an African-American carpenter, met with company representatives on the job site to ask why black workers were not being hired even though the site was smack-dab in the Bayview, one of the city’s few majority black neighborhoods. Experienced black carpenters had constantly inquired about jobs.

Renovations begin on several housing projects AKA ghettos, section 8, etc. Wow those are some pretty happening renovations. People pay big bucks for new windows, doors, flooring, bathrooms, kitchens, lighting, paint.

Having wrangled itself out of trouble by making the renovations and paying millions to the city and to a nearby Boys and Girls Club as required in the 2004 settlement, AIMCO undertook the current project to update units in La Salle, Shoreview, Bayview, and All Hallows Gardens with new windows, doors, flooring, bathrooms, kitchens, lighting, and paint.

Now the housing giant is being targeted again for alleged collaboration in wrong-doing during the new construction project, bankrolled in part by $73 million in tax-exempt bonds and $42 million in federal low-income-housing tax credits.

According to this story, the contractors prefer mexicans over black, legal or not.

 Of the black workers, Cunningham is accused of saying they were “too slow” and that he wanted to fire them all.

Contractors tell blacks there’s no work, then hire mexicans. Contractors/ Managers/foremen  make mexicans give kickbacks out of their checks and work overtime..lawyers get involved. Green text indicates lawsuit money.Bummer for blacks, who didn’t move up a rung on the Darwin ladder  when mexicans moved in, they moved further down. As I wrote  years ago under rants in this blog, about illegals and the New Slavery.

Last fall, some carpenters went to La Raza Centro Legal in the Mission to inquire about their rights. La Raza contacted Bob Salinas, who had just won a $100,000 settlement for three workers who had not been paid for all their hours worked at a Chinese buffet in the East Bay. After listening to the carpenters’ stories, and doing his own investigation, Salinas decided they had grounds for a civil suit.

The suit also names Fortney & Weygandt Inc., the Ohio-based general contractor AIMCO hired to coordinate the construction and hire of subcontractors, three of which are also being sued. The suit alleges that AIMCO, Fortney & Weygandt, and the three subcontractors created a “supermanagement team” that waged a campaign of racism and exploitation.

Side story: look out employers before you hire illegals, thinking you are gettting a sweet, profitable deal. Lawsuits by illegals abound.  http://www.sfweekly.com/2008-03-19/news/working-class-struggle/full

 Usually the phrase working class is reserved to describe  poor Whites, but this is all about the illegal aliens.

Attorney Hillary Ronen filed a federal lawsuit on Serralta’s behalf, demanding that the Khans pay more than $120,000 in back wages, overtime, break time, and attorneys’ fees. The group, operating out of the offices of La Raza Centro Legal on San Francisco’s Valencia Street under the rubric Workers’ Advocacy Project.

OK, back to the construction story- so, both groups , blacks and mexicans heard about  the  big bucks to be made in these lawsuits, and said , “screw working, we can make more money suing “. I guess that is the measure of assimilation out here, getting into the class-action lawsuit game.

The 27 black and Latino carpenters who brought the suit decided they wouldn’t tolerate what they say is an extreme example of the construction industry’s “best-kept nonsecret,” as one Bayview activist puts it, where black workers are passed over in favor of largely undocumented Latino immigrants who are more easily exploited.

 As IF, like the story ends with everyone in a group hug, their gumbo and tortillas simmering side-by-side. Cut the crap, we all know that is BS. They are in this lawsuit for the money. Yeah of course they are going to act like that while they are pretending to be umm, dually-oppressed . This is about money, not this brotherly love concept. Look at Los Angeles, they sure don’t all get along down there, do they? NO, they vie for turf jobs , everything- as we all do.

 April is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month in the UK.  Foods processed with a bunch of chemicals are generally bad news. But they  need to make it clear , is it the sausage itself, the fat/protein/iron  or is it the chemicals? If one could get sausage without the nitrites and smoke flavoring, etc., would it make a difference? That needs to be explored, as does the possibility of eating other foods, say high in antioxidants, would that cancel out some of the sausage-damage, or not have any effect? This is a UK article, not sure if folks in England consume quite a lot of this, out here in San Francisco they don’t, but probably more in protest of the pigs/cows  suffering from social injustice, exclusion and inequity.

Full article:

Why eating just one sausage a day raises your cancer risk by 20 per cent

World Cancer Research Fund warned.

Professor Martin Wiseman, the charity’s medical and scientific adviser, said: “We are more sure now than ever before that eating processed meat increases your risk of bowel cancer and this is why WCRF recommends that people avoid eating it.

Processed meats - those preserved by smoking, salting and any other method apart from freezing - include bacon, ham, pastrami, salami and hot dogs.

Sausages, hamburgers and mince fall into the bracket if they have been preserved with salt or chemical additives.

http://www.bowelcanceruk.org.uk/

Processed meats may also trigger cancer in the prostate, lung, stomach and oesophagus.

The analysis, published last November, also found that red meat raises the risk of the disease, but to a lesser extent.

Both types of meat can be high in fat and iron, both of which are linked to cancer.

However, processing raises levels of cancer-causing chemicals called N-nitroso compounds, making bacon, sausages and the like more deadly.
