These are (1) Affirmative Action (which even Ruth Bader Ginsburg decreed needs to be "sunset-ed"), (2) Protective speech codes - modeled after the successful prohibition of Holocaust Denial. The maintenance of this historic speech restriction in American law is a key protective component - a tactical beach-head, if you will, meant eventually to buttress claims for protection by the aggressive Latin/Muslim cultural/political campaign currently underway in America), and (3). Large-scale immigration-with a bias that discriminates against people from capitalist, Anglo-Saxon cultures, and towards the Left's global patrons: wealthy Muslim and Latin pay-to-play-ers and their kins.<br /><br />Before I'm accused of "hating Mexicans," I hasten to add: Latin culture ain't a Mexican thang. Long before Columbus sailed the ocean blue, Latin culture prevailed in the Levant, including Turkey, Northern Africa - and across Southern Europe from Spain and Southern France to parts of Hungary. And then South to Yemen, and wherever Arab ships touched coastal East-Africa.<br /><br />Why lash Islam to Latin Culture? Because Islam's reliance on Mohammed's monomaniacal cult of celebrity, and its imposition of speech-codes to protect his mythologies, makes it an exemplar of Latin Culture. Which explains why it trucks so well with the Caudillo Culture's various campaigns in American media and politics. <br /><br />I enjoyed your essay very much, P.

We both ran into a barn, me to a work bench and chores, he to a chair with the Wall Street Journal. Neither of us are ones to mince words, he solemnly stated, "It's coming." I raised my glance and made eye contact, communicating a "What is coming?" He proceeded to tell me that war is coming to the states. It is now afoot. This was before he even knew of the events occurring in neighboring Virginia. He has always been an upbeat person and remains so, however he is a realist. I hope he is wrong. I believe he is not.Christian Mountaineerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04718213506187103102noreply@blogger.com
