Happy Socialist, Anarchist, Illegal Alien Day

I'm not going to get a chance to post much on this new day of arrogance. I've let my U.S. Senator from Cuba know I loathe him. I've ranted to a few friends who still don't see the threat that the interlopers pose to their children, and I wrote one comment on a blog.

That's what I'm copying over here. First, I'll repost the original pabulum:

Count my voice among those who are today marching and asking for a path to citizenship for immigrants in this country. Look, I know they broke the law by coming here (I won't even get into how suspect it is for countries to set their own laws on immigration and expect citizens of another country to just follow them), but what right do we have to demand that they not enter our borders? For all America is doing wrong, it is still the most free country in the world and the one most able to provide a good life for its inhabitants. How can we expect people to not come to this country if we can offer them such a better life than the one they have in other countries? How can we, and especially myself and other Christians, tell people to not come to us even though we can help them? Since when is the saying on the Statue of Liberty about "bring me your huddled masses..." a epithet without meaning?

Too often we americans forget that our history is, in certain areas, largely one of breaking laws and theft and questionable citizenship. We stole land from the indians and just arbitrarily said it was ours; it's not like we Americans were the first ones on the scene here. We fought wars to gain our own independence because we believed that America could hold a better life. We welcomed immigrants from Europe from the thousands, laying the groundwork for the America we have today with our rich differing cultures and dialects and traditions. We are not a nation of indigenous peoples. We are a nation built on a history of huddled masses, immigrants, poverty-stricken farmers, religious freedom-seekers, soldiers, land-grabbers, and dreamers.

How can we deny anyone else in this whole world the same thing? Happy May Day, everyone.

There was just so much here that needs to be beaten, physically, from the squalid ideations that infest the minds of so many who feel that they must kowtow to all others from all nations in order to feel good about being American. The guy made my skin crawl with his matter-of-fact lunaticity. So, I replied thusly:

Katie's Dad said...

When Emma Lazarus rises from the dead and proves she was a founding father, not some PR-Stunt poetry contest winner, then I might have a thimble of compassion for an illegal alien. But probably not then, either. For she was nothing more than a foil for a newspaperman's quest for profit. No figure in American history is more over-promoted. It's just sick to base policy that determines who we are, and what sort of fate-in-nation awaits our ancestors, upon that blithering tripe of a poem. Really.

Being romantically distracted by baseless ideals while deadly serious issues like sovereignty and societal cohesiveness are at stake is the epitome of stupidity.

Instead, I'm informed by Thomas Jefferson who wrote:"In proportion to their numbers, they will share with us the legislation. They will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its direction, and render it a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass."

George Washington said, prescriptively: "Citizens, by birth or choice, of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles."

John Jay wrote, also prescriptively: "I have as often taken notice that Providence has been pleased to give this one connected country to one united people -- a people descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in their manners and customs, and who, by their joint counsels, arms, and efforts, fighting side by side throughout a long and bloody war, have nobly established general liberty and independence.

"This country and this people seem to have been made for each other, and it appears as if it was the design of Providence, that an inheritance so proper and convenient for a band of brethren, united to each other by the strongest ties, should never be split into a number of unsocial, jealous, and alien sovereignties."

As a Christian, you'd be better served by thinking about the plight of the people these interloping opportunists leave behind; the poverty they exacerbate back home; the broken families; the elderly with no youth to support them in a a community; the tacit support your compassion gives to despots who are relieved to see the departure of those who are most physically able to threaten their corrupt status quo; and, most importantly, the detrimental impact upon the futures of America's children that such an unprecedented influx surely portends. Do you ever think about that stuff? Or has the romanticism for the "needy other" completely made you blind to
the needs and best interests of your own?

Is it OK if one in five of our residents has no connection to, empathy for or sense of stewardship on behalf of those who fought and bled and died to start this grand experiment? Even if that assures that heritage is erased? And even if the loss of that heritage puts an end to the experiment?

If so, please send your kids to schools built in the shadow of your new Tower of Babel; but, please, make provisions for mine to go to schools in which english is the only language allowed to be spoken. While you're at it, give my little girl a place to grow up in which this nation's sense of Providence is allowed to thrive without being held hostage to the influence of those who would sell it all out on a whim.

I was tempted to beat the author up over his asinine "we stole the land from the indians" crap, but I figured he'd not be able to digest any additional de-programming thoughts in one post.

A Troll Gets His Due

I've been following, and participating, in a tit-for-tat with a troll who has taken up residence at FreedomFolks using the nom-de-keyboard "hannitized." He's not really worthy of the level of respect I usually demand to bring up such lunacy; he ran away from this blog's comment section after I made it clear that he would not be allowed to post non-sequitur and/or nonsensical Leftist links to make his feeble points. I'll not be a party to driving traffic, and its related profit, to the DailyKos or Indymedia crowd. The only reason I bring him up now is that this troll's comments serve as the archetype evil for anyone who is trying to make a point about the vital dangers of multiculturalism, the cultural emptiness of diversity, and the inescapable primacy of tribal instinct - hard-coded into human nature - that makes promoting a too-heterogeneous society so horrifically wrong.

A couple of weeks ago, I decided that it was beneath my standards to address this quasi-sentient infestation directly at my friends' blog, so I began to comment on his comments in the third person. I also assumed a mocking tone and made every effort to find a more appropriate moniker for him. Eventually, I settled on "hispandertized" because it best described his position on most things: He's got a monumental inferiority complex that exhibits itself in puffed-up "my people are superior to your people, but your people STOLE OUR LANDS and made us less great than we ought to be" attitude. Every time another "American-by-technicality" is born into a family like that which begat this hispantertized pathogen, there is made another weak link in the chain that binds Americans together.

We are made less when such trolls have sex, except with themselves.

What's most laughable, and sad, about Jake's week-kneed little parasite is that he really doesn't know to what tribe he belongs. Sometimes he's a Spaniard, sometimes he's an indigenous Mexica, sometimes he's a Native American. But never, no never, is he an American - even though ours is the nation to which he was born, and he probably would swear to which he remains allegiant. But his rantings betray him. He hates America. He hates it's origins. He hates anything that might be a byproduct of Western Civilization's success especially if its origin is even tangentially Anglo Saxon.

But he loves all things Mexican.

Mexico's indigenous tribes can do no wrong in his book. America would be best served if that third-world nation's people could freely retake the lands America won, then purchased 150 years ago. To him, the "indigenous peoples" still own it depite the fact that the mythical lands of Atzlan were Mexican territory for barely a quarter-century before America fought and won them in a war. Most of us know that reconquista is not a salient point of view for a true American; however, it is an unwavering belief for most Mexicans.

Hispandertized is walking, talking proof that some tribes just will never assimilate fully to the American way. The longer we allow the alien invasion, particularly from our south, to proceed at such breakneck pace, the harder it will be for this nation to remain unified throughout its next generations. I have to thank this troll for being exemplar of how foolishly wrong the notion that "all peoples are compatible with American ideals" really is.

Seeing that hispandertized lives to browbeat us with the wonders and moral superiority of the indegnous people's of Mexico, I thought I'd close with an brilliant example of those "wonders."

Enjoy:

Mordida, Bribes - Some Things in Mexico Seem To Never Change

In Chiapas, the Chamula Indians obligate their tribesmen to be members of the ruling PRI party. Anyone in the tribe who prefers membership in a different party or even criticizes the PRI is ostracized and driven from their tribal lands. The PRI maintains this loyalty by providing the Chamulas with the Coca Cola franchise for the region. Big time mordida.

When creatures like hispandertized call me a "racist," it's confirmation that I'm correct in my analysis of the alien invasion. How ironic is it that he cannot acknowledge the tribal preference for one's own kind that motivates him! Only someone filled with equal parts hate for his nation and self-loathing would invade someone else's Internet domain, build a soapbox there and do nothing but berate the virtual townsfolk who happen by.

The Open-Border Asshats' Conundrum

First, the standard asshattery:

Dueling LA immigration rallies mark anniversary of massive march

"We all know this is Mexican land," he said. "They didn't cross the border. The border crossed them."

Now, my questions:

Would any of these low-lifes be here without the accomplishments of British protestants based on their innovative ideas about the potentialities of liberated man? Would there be cause for alien presence if first colonists, then the intrepid American settlers, did not spread European values and culture forged over hundreds of generations, what we now call Western civilization, and create this nation and all that it is? Would there be a "Federal Building" for them to despoil with their presence? Would there be any reason for these people to be at that spot on God's good earth?

No.

Or, are they just here for our "stuff" because they have no contemporary history of being able to do it on their own?

Yes.

The border crossed them, my ass.

Core Lessons: Unique American Culture

This piece was originally written either in the late 1990's or in 2000. It has existed in various versions, most of which were longer. When it came to writing something I wanted to leave for my kids to read, I decided to pare it down and tighten it up.

This is the result from early 2002:

Yes, there is a "unique American Culture"

Patriotic Americanism must continue to prevail over the desires of those who wish to deny that there is such a thing as "a unique American culture." Our ancestors anticipated attempts to lead our nation down a path to balkanization and expected us to stand fast against them. We must consistently refute lies that contend America was founded by and populated by people possessing broadly diverse perspectives and ideals. The ideas behind concepts like multiculturalism and diversity were anathema in the America of 1776 and for nearly 200 years thereafter.

In their faith, habits and principles, the first American citizens were a most narrowly diverse lot, separated only by slight variations in Christian denomination. In their ethics, morals and values, the first Americans could only be described as virtually homogenous. It was the similarity not the diversity of our forefathers and founders that set the stage for America to become a great nation.

Those who advocate diversity and multiculturalism as being historically important to this nation's greatness are dangerously wrong. Using their twisted logic, we are to believe that the ideals driving Islamic terrorists to fly planes into buildings are societally compatible with the motivations that drive Presbyterian women to have fundraising bake sales. Diversity theory places Christian Baptism on par with Animist ritual mutilation of baby girls' genitalia. Diversity theory blindly accepts into our midst hordes of incompatible, poorly educated, virtually aliterate(if not outright alingual) illegal alien border-jumpers from third-world Kleptocracies because it is supposedly in keeping with "the things for which this nation stands." There is no doubt that our founders would be nauseated by such absurd notions.

Thomas Jefferson expressed concern about this issue in "Notes on Virginia" (brackets added for clarity):

"…But are there no inconveniences to be thrown into the scale against the advantage expected from a multiplication of numbers by the importation of foreigners? It is for the happiness of those united in society to harmonize as much as possible in matters which they must of necessity transact together. Civil government being the sole object of forming societies, its administration must be conducted by common consent. Every species of government has its specific principles.

Ours perhaps are more peculiar than those of any other in the universe. It is a composition of the freest principles of the English constitution, with others derived from natural right and natural reason. To these nothing can be more opposed than the maxims of absolute monarchies [the equivalent of today's despots, tyrants and kleptocrats]. Yet, from such, we are to expect the greatest number of emigrants. They will bring with them the principles of the governments they leave, imbibed in their early youth; or, if able to throw them off, it will be in exchange for an unbounded licentiousness, passing, as is usual, from one extreme to another. It would be a miracle were they to stop precisely at the point of temperate liberty. These principles, with their language, they will transmit to their children. In proportion to their numbers, they will share with us the legislation. They will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its direction, and render it a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass."

Jefferson chafed at the thought that we could, by inaction, surrender our homogeneity and he was greatly concerned that we might! All this banter about diversity and multiculturalism would have given him fits.

Nothing exemplifies how far we have strayed from the intentions and dreams of our founders more clearly than our current immigration policy. Yes, immigration is an important part of our history. But nobody from the pro-immigration camp wants to discuss the fact that the none of the signers of the Declaration of Independence were immigrants, they were colonist and British subjects. Every member of the Constitutional Convention of 1789 except Alexander Hamilton was born in the colonies. The absolute truth is that the vast majority of our first citizens were Americans by birth and the vast majority of Americans have always been "citizens by birth." We have never had as many as 15 percent of our residents being of foreign origin.

Cast in this proper light, the "nation of immigrants" mantra to which we are constantly subjected becomes tritely idiomatic. If we are to be strictly precise, our history is one forged by colonists who became the first American citizens via revolution. These originals were augmented by immigrants who were eager assimilants: All Americans. Before and until the immigration reforms of 1965, between one quarter and one third of all migrants to this land could not adapt and ended up leaving. Those who came here "seeking a better life" without possessing the all-important corollary "dream of becoming American" were roughly cast aside by a society that was decidedly intolerant of selfish opportunists who didn't want to "get with the program." Promoting diversity for the sake of diversity is as accepting of malignancies as it is of the benign; it will always be an utterly stupid practice.

The only way in which we can assure America's long-term continued success as a sovereign nation is to establish new policies promoting American cultural homogeneity via imposing strict limits on the number of immigrants, demanding rigorously-enforced visa and border laws and insisting that all new arrivals submit to and successfully complete compulsory "patriotic assimilation" courses soon after their arrival. Those who cannot accept our unique culture, mores and values as their own, forsaking all others, should be summarily returned to their countries of origin.
