Althouse: "Vulnerable women are most likely being 'extensively' abused across the UK and ministers need to urgently review sex exploitation laws..."

February 23, 2018

"Vulnerable women are most likely being 'extensively' abused across the UK and ministers need to urgently review sex exploitation laws..."

"The government said it would 'look carefully' at Mr Spicer's 33 recommendations, which also included a need for research into the cultural background of abusers, many of whom in the case of Sanctuary were from a 'predominantly Asian or British Minority Ethnic culture or background.'Mr Spicer, who carried out the serious case review... said it was clear 'adults were being targeted, groomed and exploited' as well as children. But he said authorities did not have the powers to intervene with adults to stop them 'making bad choices"' or forming 'inappropriate relationships.'"

I lived in Japan, Taiwan, and Malaysia for 10 years. I travelled extensively to other East and Southeast Asian countries. My wife, who is Japanese, is also Asian. So are all of the Japanese, Chinese, and Koreans I worked with in semiconductor and other technology manufacturing industries. To call the Middle-eastern Muslim perps "Asian" is to demean all of the Asian people in my life, including my beloved wife.

Big Mike said...: Excerpt from a speech given by Robert Heinlein to the US Naval Academy in Annapolis:

"Patriotism — An abstract word used to describe a type of behavior as harshly practical as good brakes and good tires. It means that you place the welfare of your nation ahead of your own even if it costs you your life.

Men who go down to the sea in ships have long had another way of expressing the same moral behavior tagged by the abstract expression “patriotism.” Spelled out in simple Anglo-Saxon words “Patriotism” reads “Women and children first!”

And that is the moral result of realizing a self-evident biological fact: Men are expendable; women and children are not. A tribe or a nation can lose a high percentage of its men and still pick up the pieces and go on. . .as long as the women and children are saved. But if you fail to save the women and children, you’ve had it, you’re done, you’re THROUGH! You join tyrannosaurus rex, one more breed that bilged its final test.

I must amplify that. I know that women can fight and often have. I have known many a tough old grandmother I would rather have on my side in a tight spot than any number of pseudo-males who disdain military service. My wife put in three years and a butt active duty in World War Two, plus ten years reserve, and I am proud — very proud! — of her naval service. I am proud of every one of our women in uniform; they are a shining example to us men.

Nevertheless, as a mathematical proposition in the facts of biology, children, and women of child-bearing age, are the ultimate treasure that we must save. Every human culture is based on “Women and children first” — and any attempt to do it any other way leads quickly to extinction.

Possibly extinction is the way we are headed. Great nations have died in the past; it can happen to us."

Oh, I don't think so. I think that Roughcoat is an intelligent, thoughtful and highly-educated person who has thoroughly internalized the American ethos under which we were both raised, which said that America is an idea, not a race, and racism is inherently evil. He just hasn't gotten quite as far as you and I have in recognizing that America is in fact based on an idea, but that idea only works if the population has the right DNA.

Roughcoat said...: "Segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" was the rally cry George Wallace used to stir up his audience of supporters at his 1963 inaugural address, following his election as governor of Alabama. In uttering it Wallace was not advocating the segregation of the races because American blacks were raping the children of white parents. Rather, he uttered it as a means of promulgating the retention of an unconstitutional system of racial apartheid which was explicit in it's goal to deny American blacks their full rights as citizens of the United States. Wallace and his supporters wanted segregation not to protect their women and children from black rapists but because they regarded themselves as superior in every way to backs and segregation was the means by which they would keep blacks permanently subservient to whites.

As bad as the US is in terms of the ideal of what race relations should be, Americans are much more progressive in assimilating gobs and gobs of darker toned immigrants from all over the world. I submit, it's the deeper racism and classicist mentality ingrained in white Europe which causes them to increase segregation and relegate the recent shithole imports to ghettos with little to no economic independance. In the US, the Arabs took over gas stations (I wish they would clean the bathrooms better) and convenience stores, the Patels run our Motels, and Manual does most of our labor.

Many of his themes and positions have become achingly relevant to today's political reality. As he said about the Republicans and the Democrats at the time "There is not a dimes worth of difference between them." That is why he had to be silenced.

You claim to be to the right of Genghis Khan but buy into the politically correct nonsense that cultures are equal. There is usually no problem with minorities if they act white. When they retain the trappings of their inferior cultures and religion they are a destructive force.

That is what white supremacy is all about.

There were indeed Southerners at one time so utterly depraved as to imagine that importing blacks and keeping them in a state of subservience was a good idea. By the 50's that notion had long since died out, replaced by the recognition that importing blacks had been a disastrous mistake. It is probably true that they were unable to imagine our modern world, in which black criminality and violence is a harsh reality our political elites encourage for their own purposes, but that does not mean that the segregationists were not trying to protect their women and children.

So, what are you trying to say? That the British authorities who allow their women and children to be raped and abused by other races are better men than the segregationists who tried to protect their women and children? Why?; 2/23/18, 3:02 PM

While I don't think you are trying to do this, some are trying to downplay what happened in Rotherham. As an example, one article states 35 Muslim women in the country were treated the same as the 1400 mostly white women. As if to make an equivalence to downplay the racism/religiosity.

Let's not go overboard here. Slavery has been with us for as long as warfare. Stack American slavery up against the Armenian genocide, the Gulag, the Final Solution or the Great Leap Forward, and it doesn't amount to much as grotesque atrocities go. The Leftists find it convenient to pretend this run-of-the-mill horror was uniquely horrible, and uniquely American, precisely so as to paralyze reasonable people like Roughcoat with guilt, and blind them to the fact that our civilization is under attack from without and within, and it will surely succumb if we do not find the means, the will and the courage to defend it.; 2/23/18, 3:47 PM

Michelle Dulak Thomson said...: kurt9 and others,

The reason "Asian" in the UK generally means "people from the Indian subcontinent," and within that group many more Pakistanis than Indians, is simply that that's where most Asians in Britain come from. After the partition of India and its emancipation from what used to be the British Empire, the Indian subcontinent was full of ex-British subjects who still had British passports, and understandably a lot of them wanted out; there were literally millions of refugees, huge population transfers between the two new nations, &c. Apart from Hong Kong, which no one wanted to leave anyway (at least until the final handover to China), there really wasn't anything similar in the Far East.

"Asian" just means "from Asia," which is a mighty big place. You can divide it into "good, nice Asians" (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) and "nasty Muslim Asians" all you like, but as a fact, in the UK there are many more of the latter than the former, and it has almost entirely to do with the dissolution of the Empire. For the same reason, France has heavy populations from former French colonies in North Africa, while Britain's African population is drawn from Arab ex-protectorates further east, and former British colonies in sub-Saharan Africa. I wonder why that could possibly be? [/sarc]

In the US, which is also a mighty big place, we have leisure to make distinctions. So we have, say, Somali communities in Michigan and Minnesota, and Chinatowns (and Japantowns, and Little Saigons) all down the West Coast.

What I'm saying is that "non-Muslim Asians" are a negligible fraction of the UK population, while Indian/Pakistani Asians (overwhelmingly Muslim) are the very large majority of the Asian population. There is no "lumping together," only an almost automatic parsing. If you hear "Asian" in the UK, you think Pakistani, simply because nearly all Asians are, in fact, Pakistani.

How many "non-Muslim Asians" vs. Muslim Asians do you think there are in the UK? I checked Wiki, and per them there were in 2011 about 3 million Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi Asians in the UK, as compared with less than half a million Chinese and 850,000 or so "other Asian." So, as you can see, there's good reason that "Asian" means what it does in the UK. Interestingly, the number of Indians is greater than the number of Pakistanis.; 2/24/18, 7:16 AM
