Honest talk about ethnic groups: CNN can't seem to get enough of the Holocaust museum shooting. I've been learning all about the layout of the building, the details of the incident, and have been treated to White Nationalism 101. If folks are concerned about this type of violence, I recommend we ignore those who suggest we look to Europe and its punishment of bad speech.

How about a fresh idea? The culture offers Americans who are curious about Jews two options: Stormfront or nothing. The topic has been driven underground, and nothing but fungus grows in the dark.

Growing up in a small town, I learned all sorts of things about blacks and Hispanics, but the only thing I was ever told about Jews was that they are cheap--one, shallow stereotype--and that millions were killed by Nazis. And the few words that were uttered were in hushed tones.

The most basic facts are that American Jews are an incredibly accomplished group who are about as ethnocentric as Mexican Americans. Scary as hell to read in print, isn't it? My response to such facts is, so what? I've already expressed my disapproval of ethnocentrism and my wish that Jews found conservatism more persuasive (their embrace of abortion bugs me) but these folks have enriched the country in many ways, and even if they hadn't, they are citizens who are entitled to believe whatever they want.

All the whispers and taboo only feed paranoid thinking. How about some honest talk about ethnic groups? Let's try candor, for once.

    The media's cruelest bias is how they over-emphasize some stories and "forget" others.


    A Sudanese immigrant recently ran his car into some 13 kids. Media forgot it. None of the kids died, but they were injured.

    A Muslim convert in Arkansas killed a US military recruiter. Obama wont even comment on it. Media has pretty much forgotten it.

    4 Muslims in New York (Black prison Muslims) wanted to bomb synagogues with FBI-supplied phony weapons. Media not following up on this one either.

    A Virginia Tech Asian Student shot 13 other students. Media plays the anti-gun angle.

    Another Virginia Tech Asian student BEHEADS a girl at a coffee shop. The media REFUSES to report that he beheaded her, reporting it as a "stabbing" instead. Media forgets the story shortly thereafter.

    Asian man in Buffalo who cant speak English for fuck even after over a decade in America goes bezerk and shoots some 13 people at a immigration center. Media originally breathlessly reports the story until they find out the shooter was an Asian............then it gets buried after a week that the media uses the anti-gun angle on the story.




    Lets add up victims shall we?
    13 Buffalo
    13 Va Tech
    1 Va Tech
    13 Sudanese nutjob (attempted)
    1 Arkansas
    Entire synagogue in NY (guessing 200 people at least).

    241 potential and real victims vs. 1 victim.


    241>1.


    Yeah, I know Im a pain-in-the-ass and unspeakably cruel, wicked, cold-hearted, callous, insensitive, unfeeling, and too blunt...........but the numbers say we are under assault from LEFT WING America and not right wing America.


    If we could just get the "COMPREHENSIVE" Immigration Deform passed, Im sure it would all get better, as if by magic. Especially if we let the Gitmo detainees out into our country so they could see that "we are one of the largest Muslim nations on Earth" like our president recently said.

  3. Does anyone know why it is no longer possible to access von Brunn's website? Here is his bio from archive.org:

    James W. von Brunn holds a BachSci Journalism degree from a mid-Western university where he was president of SAE and played varsity football.

    During WWII he served as PT-Boat captain, Lt. USNR, receiving a Commendation and four battle stars. For twenty years he was an advertising executive and film-producer in New York City. He is a member of Mensa, the high-IQ society.

    In 1981 Von Brunn attempted to place the treasonous Federal Reserve Board of Governors under legal, non-violent, citizens arrest. He was tried in a Washington, D.C. Superior Court; convicted by a Negro jury, Jew/Negro attorneys, and sentenced to prison for eleven years by a Jew judge. A Jew/Negro/White Court of Appeals denied his appeal. He served 6.5 years in federal prison. (Read about von Brunn's "Federal Reserve Caper" HERE.) He is now an artist and author and lives on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

    Tob Shebbe Goyim Harog is the culmination of his life's work.

  4. their embrace of abortion bugs me....

    It might bug you less if you were to approach it from a scientific rather than a religious perspective, as Carl Sagan and Ann Druyen did:

    Back in your atheist days, you would have found their arguments completely convincing, as I do (but wouldn't have, back in my own "spiritual believer" days).

    I guess IQ doesn't equate morality?

    Who has ever claimed it does?

Are gun owners mentally ill?

  Some anti-gun people think owning a gun is a sign of some kind of mental abnormality. According to General Social Survey data, gun owners ...
