Kill the Humans

Scoff if you want, but at least these guys are logically consistent with the way many of us Occidental folk behave and think: > Make no mistake about it, the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement isn't anti-child, it's more like anti-human. > The VHE is dedicated to

Violent Polygamists

> Senior French politicians have been accused of "blatant racism" after linking the suburban riots to polygamy among African immigrant families. > The head of the ruling centre-right party in the national assembly and an employment minister both suggested unruly teenagers from large, polygamous families had helped to

Big Money in Big Easy

Free market or government subsidy? > So many people have abandoned New Orleans for good that contractors are paying $30 an hour for unskilled laborers and Burger King is offering a $6,000 hiring bonus ... if you agree to stay for a year. Link [http://www.sploid.com/news/2005/

Wake Up and Smell the Coffee . . . If Coffee is Still Allowed

It amazes me that Europeans (and many Americans) continue to think Muslims can assimilate to Western Democracy. Yes, it is possible, and it's possible the Lions will win the Superbowl this season (I plan to continue using that comparison for the rest of this miserable NFL season). But

And By the Way

Mark my words: When the Muslim Frog riots finally settle down, we'll be told they weren't that bad. Only a few people were killed, after all. Nevermind the extensive property damage and the duration of the rioting. It'll get whitewashed behind the lack of

Fukuyama on Muslims

I disagree with Francis Fukuyama's "Democracy for All!" approach (and heck, based on this blurb, I'm not even sure he believes in it), but he raises a good point [http://www.washtimes.com/culture/culturebriefs.htm]: > Radical Islamism is in no way an

There is No Possible Domestic Policy

WaPo and others continue to think there's a way to placate the rioters [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/08/AR2005110801109.html] : > But the insoluble violence in urban France should inspire more than just schadenfreude in this country. Although there isn't yet

Steyn on Eurabian Wars

Chirac Not Liberal Enough

Good ole New York Times. What's the problem in France these days? Chirac and his ilk aren't liberal enough [http://www.nytimes.com/2005/11/08/opinion/08tue2.html]. At one point, the editorial even seems to imply that an affirmative action plan would have helped

Natural Law at WaPo

WaPo has run a piece this morning about the potential 5-Catholic Supreme Court [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/06/AR2005110601134.html] . The first half is ho-hum: the composition reflects tolerance toward Catholics, but does it reflect America's demographics? But the second half made some
