john mosby చెప్పారు...: Per Wikipedia:

Britain is still over 75% "White British & Irish" with another 6% of "Other White," mostly Poles and Romanians. "Asians" (mostly South) are just 8%. Blacks just 3%. Of the latter 2 groups, so many are multi-generational British subjects, descended from immigrants who were more British than the Brits. Muslims of all ethnicities are just 7% of the population, and that includes everyone from fanatical sheikhs to whiskey/bacon muzzies.

France is harder because it is illegal to collect ethnic data in their census, but it may be 85% white European.

Germany also has legal blocks to ethnic data collection, but is over 70% ethnic German and close to 80% European heritage.

Denmark is well over 80% ethnic Danish.

None of these countries should have any fear of minorities.

Should.

Gavin Newsom went to Davos and had a meltdown complaining about Europeans not standing up to Trump and goading them to man up and get a spine. He did use the word "supine," though, which is impressive for someone who may be illiterate.; 20-01-26 8:34 PM

FormerLawClerk చెప్పారు...: Lefties in Minnesota are buying salt at Target and then immediately returning it as a form of protest against ICE.

Yes, they should continue doing that instead of trying to murder ICE agents with their vehicles.

I bet a lot fewer of them get shot in their fucking faces 4 times, sadly.; 20-01-26 9:46 PM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: "None of these countries should have any fear of minorities."
Well. The white majorities in these countries would, with marginally competent leadership, have no difficulty in getting rid of the parasitic minorities that have been fixed upon them like blood-sucking leeches. However, the "leadership" they are saddled with is precisely the "leadership" that affixed those leeches to them. And now, prevents them from removing those blood-sucking leeches.
So. Is the problem, blood-sucking leeches? Or race-traitors? Embrace the power of "and".; 20-01-26 9:46 PM
Dr Weevil చెప్పారు...: At least 10% of the jerks in Minnesota are going to realize, when the next blizzard hits, that they shouldn’t have returned the salt they bought. There’s more than one kind of ‘ICE’ that can ruin their lives.; 20-01-26 9:49 PM
n.n చెప్పారు...: Kitty litter provides exceptional traction on ICE... ICE, baby.; 20-01-26 9:50 PM
Dr Weevil చెప్పారు...: P.S. Apparently none of them have the wit to realize that buying bags of ice and then returning them would be clever enough to amuse their fellow quarter-wits. “Get it? We hate ice! Heh heh heh!”; 20-01-26 9:54 PM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: The concept of "race-treason" takes as its fundamental moral principle, that one's strongest obligations are to one's immediate family. And then, expanding outwards, to one's kinfolk generally. This biologically-imposed obligation leads to systems of clanship, and feud. Who attacks my clan, attacks me.
The modern "state" attempts to supplant this natural system of justice, with a promise that a single "clan", consisting of all "citizens", will exist, and will be protected, by "the law", which considers the interests of all "citizens", regardless of their familial relations. The claim is that, you don't need to rely upon those who are your genetic relations. Place your reliance in the state, which protects everyone. Equally.
This is a cheat, and a lie. Fortunately, we have lamp-posts.; 20-01-26 9:58 PM

How is that protesting against ICE? It makes absolutely no sense.; 20-01-26 9:59 PM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: Althouse has been an acolyte of this system, and likely does not grasp how firmly its success, such as it was, was based upon the genetic homogeneity of the American populace. She probably imagines that the system of "laws" that she so fondly inculcated in a couple generations of impressionable youths is somehow universally applicable. Although you may be certain that the neighborhood she lives in is genetically homogeneous. White liberals insist upon living in neighborhoods where there are "good schools". Even if they have no children in those schools.; 20-01-26 10:04 PM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: To be clear; if you aren't a racist, you are a race-traitor. You are promulgating a race-neutral political ideology that favors people who intend to eradicate your race. You are an enemy of your bloodline.
The Democrats are telling us, that if they win in 28, they are going to put MAGA in camps. No kidding. Skip the "if", and let's get down to the dirty. In 28, death squads, whoever wins. When you can't get along, get it on!; 20-01-26 10:12 PM

It doesn't have to make sense if you're a bunch of snarling infants throwing a temper tantrum.; 20-01-26 10:13 PM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: The Turkish dictator Ertugun used to say, "Democracy is like a subway. When you get to your stop, you get off".
And actually, who could argue with this assessment? If the other members of your polity are willing to accept losing, as long as that losing is accompanied by some spurious window-dressing, who would deny them that window-dressing? And who would refrain, from sending them to camps before they have time to find a way to reverse that idiotic acquiescence? Those who win, by whatever means, won. Those who lost -- well. Slavery is antiquated. Slaves aren't that valuable.; 20-01-26 10:22 PM
FormerLawClerk చెప్పారు...: Did ya'll know that Donald Trump's work ethic literally saved his life?

5 people died when a tiny scratch made in manufacturing caused the rotor of a New York helicopter to separate ... causing the chopper to crash, killing everyone on board.

Trump was scheduled to be on that flight, but decided he was too busy to leave New York that night.

Killed in the crash were Stephen Hyde, 43, Trump's right-hand man in Atlantic City; Mark Grossinger Etess, 38, president of the then unfinished Taj Mahal resort and casino; Jonathan Benanav, 30, vice president of Trump Plaza Hotel Casino; Capt. Robert Kent, 27; and his co-pilot, Lawrence Diener.

Trump has dodged certain death by mere moments 3 times now.; 20-01-26 10:26 PM

Jupiter చెప్పారు...: Tom Wolfe wrote about the devolution of law into clan and feud, in Bonfire, and later in Back to Blood. His treatment was even-handed, even dispassionate. "Here the thing is", he seemed to say. "This is how the thing goes awry".
Yet I fault him, for the dispassion. And for the notion, that something had gone "awry", that something of value had been lost. The failure of an impossible system to function, is hardly an occasion for lament. If the company supplying electrical power to your neighborhood, has finally come to realize, that you can't deliver alternating current through plastic drinking straws, how is that a tragedy? Surely, 'tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. Shove that shit off the deck, and let's get down to tacks. Brass tacks.; 20-01-26 11:12 PM

No. We can't. Now dig a hole.; 20-01-26 11:20 PM
Beasts of England చెప్పారు...: ’It makes absolutely no sense.’

Read one explanation that salt melts ice. Yeah. But what does that have to do with ICE or the workers at Target being overwhelmed by the dullards? Something has to give…; 20-01-26 11:29 PM

Trump, the men and women in his administration, those brave ICE agents. Those are the best. It’s a bit of self aggrandizement to say that the best lack all conviction.; 21-01-26 12:31 AM

john mosby చెప్పారు...: Jupiter, I have to hit back a little. I could care less about biological race. I care greatly about culture. The ethnic stats I quoted are a rough proxy for culture. When there are small numbers of the non-indigenous ethnicity, the chance they will assimilate increases. That's why I alluded to the lace-curtain West Indians and whiskey-drinking Pakistanis in Britain: they learned British culture in their old countries, and came to the UK to participate more fully in it. Even Tommy Robinson loves bringing non-White-Brits to the front of his demonstrations, to show this is just about culture. And there are mini-Tommies of those other races on YouTube who out-Tommy him.

Not everyone assimilates, true. There used to be the polite lie that everyone would. Now there is the polite lie that it doesn't matter if they don't, because our culture and values are evil anyway.

The majority cultures of Britain and Europe used to reject those lies in private. Now they are starting to reject those lies in public. CC, JSM; 21-01-26 4:29 AM
buwaya చెప్పారు...: "Lefties in Minnesota are buying salt at Target and then immediately returning it as a form of protest against ICE. Yes I typed it correctly and yes you read it correctly. What in the absolute fuck is wrong with these morons?"

They are trying to pressure Target to ban ICE (and I presume other Feds) from using Target restrooms. I don't know if that is legal; it is certainly unwise.; 21-01-26 4:42 AM
Lem Vibe Bandit చెప్పారు...: ICE is in Minnesota to make the hard left slip up because that’s the only way attention can be raised to the level of actionable accountability. A version of ‘not letting a crisis go to waste’.; 21-01-26 4:47 AM

Lem Vibe Bandit చెప్పారు...: I wanted to use the word ‘panache’ instead of ‘pizzazz’. How can we talk about food at a time like these. But panache is closely associated with another issue recently addressed in this here blog. I don’t want to contribute to the… confusing miasma we’re in the midst of having to navigate. Then again ‘panache’ does also have a food sound to it. Decisions, decisions.; 21-01-26 5:16 AM

Ronald J. Ward చెప్పారు...: Buwaya at 4:42, “ They are trying to pressure Target to ban ICE (and I presume other Feds) from using Target restrooms. I don't know if that is legal; it is certainly unwise.”

Let’s dig into this a bit and unpack a few things.

We know Target has created some raw feelings over their DEI changes over the past year. We know Minnesota is already a charged environment. We know that ICE agents snagged a U.S. citizen there, beat him, and then dumped him in a parking lot about a mile away and drove off. To my knowledge as of now, Target has not commented on ICE presence.

So, other than intentional escalation, why is ICE provoking citizens by continuing to use Target’s restrooms when so many other options are available?; 21-01-26 6:23 AM
Beasts of England చెప్పారు...: ’They are trying to pressure Target to ban ICE (and I presume other Feds) from using Target restrooms.’

True, but why hassle the poor clerks with unnecessary work? It’s disrespectful, at a minimum, and distasteful. Their side can’t bleat about workers rights and then harass them, too.; 21-01-26 6:31 AM
Humperdink చెప్పారు...: In my previous business I sold ice melter in various blends, including pure rock salt. Pure rock salt is only effective down to 10 degrees or so. Adding calcium will make it work below zero. In talking to concrete installers, they said any ice melter than contains chloride will destroy concrete sidewalks. Doing this for nearly 30 years, I’ve watched the sidewalks of my customers destroyed slowly, some rapidly. Of course it also kills neighboring vegetation.

As mentioned above kitty litter provides great traction. It can also be purchased in the form of oil dry (aka floor dry) at local auto parts store. It is Georgia bake clay, harmless to concrete and vegetation.; 21-01-26 6:41 AM
buwaya చెప్పారు...: Why shouldnt ICE, like all police personnel, use public restrooms? The "citizens" in question, who object, are being presumptuous.; 21-01-26 6:51 AM
Ronald J. Ward చెప్పారు...: Polish it Buwaya.; 21-01-26 6:56 AM
buwaya చెప్పారు...: Presumably because handling returns ties up manpower and generates transaction costs for Target. This is a poor strategy because Target is a huge national chain and can easily absorb the cost of such petty local harassment in a store or two. The cost of giving in to such harassment is likely to be much higher, in terms of national reputation (see Bud Light).; 21-01-26 6:58 AM
Humperdink చెప్పారు...: Greenland can be bought. Not as a state but as a territory. Deal directly with the citizens of Greenland, forget Denmark. Everybody has a price.; 21-01-26 7:16 AM

Big Mike చెప్పారు...: We’re laughing at you, Ronnie.; 21-01-26 9:02 AM
Ronald J. Ward చెప్పారు...: “Another made of fact”? Interesting choice of words.

What’s being intentionally ignored is why the intentional escalations? Why Target for a pee stop when they know it will be controversial?

Yes, I suppose the poorly trained masked thugs have a legal right to Target’s bathrooms, just as one can wag his finger in your face and repeatedly say “I’m not touching you”. But why the continued tactics and practices that professional policing groups have deemed dangerous or counterproductive?

That shouldn’t be that hard for even the red hats to figure out considering hatred and revenge is in their blood.; 21-01-26 9:19 AM
Jaq చెప్పారు...: Only if in truth thou canst be charged with being rather slow and dull of comprehension, thou must exert thyself about this also, not neglecting it nor yet taking pleasure in thy dulness. - Meditations

Ronald J. Ward చెప్పారు...: The latest YouGov/Economist survey, conducted between January 16-19, shows that 71 percent think the United States is “out of control” under Trump, while only 18 percent think the country is “under control.”

The poll found that the sense of the country being “out of control” spanned nearly every demographic.

Seventy percent of white respondents, 79 percent of Black respondents, and 70 percent of Hispanic respondents said the nation was spiraling, with similar figures across age groups: 70 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds and 74 percent of those 65 and older agreed.

Even among Republicans, the results were striking: half of GOP respondents described the U.S. as out of control, compared with 38 percent who said it was under control and 13 percent who were unsure.; 21-01-26 11:08 AM
Jupiter చెప్పారు...: "Why Target for a pee stop when they know it will be controversial?"
Probably for the same reason they had lunch in a restaurant, and then arrested the illegals working there. To get you lefties all wound up like rubber bands.; 21-01-26 3:41 PM
