The Agents of Hate Crime Tribunals
Saturday, July 11, 2009The Southern Poverty Law Center is still at it. It seems its latest tactic is to kick up a storm over neo-Nazis in the U.S. military. Neo-Nazis? Yes, it seems that exactly 40 active-duty US soldiers – or so they say – have appeared on a social networking site known as the “fascist Facebook.”
The organization says it found 40 profiles on NewSaxon.org, a white supremacist site, that could be confirmed as active-duty military members.
Yes, 40 people. This story reports:
Three of the attackers in the recent spate of extremist violence across the United States, including Wednesday’s shooting at the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, had military experience, adding credence to a much-criticized Department of Homeland Security report earlier this year warning of radicalization and indoctrination of former US soldiers.
Indeed, men trained to hate and kill by the state. Former US soldiers are also far more likely to commit suicide. Since the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the suicides are spiking upward. Veterans who returned from these wars also committed at least 121 cases of murders (1/3 were domestic murders), and none of the killers had any prior criminal history before killing for the state. The New York Times investigated this:
The Times used the same methods to research homicides involving all active-duty military personnel and new veterans for the six years before and after the present wartime period began with the invasion of Afghanistan in 2001.This showed an 89 percent increase during the present wartime period, to 349 cases from 184, about three-quarters of which involved Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans. The increase occurred even though there have been fewer troops stationed in the United States in the last six years and the American homicide rate has been, on average, lower.
Yet the big stink is over 40 purported skinhead knuckleheads, out of an entire military force, posting as part of a Facebook group. It’s all political posturing with the intent to paint the world as enormously racist and dangerous, thereby inviting more special interest participation and legislation to protect the “victims” of racism. It’s a shameless, feeble, muliticulturalist, victimologist attempt to fan the flames of the race wars and keep it on the front burner so that the anti-hate crime movement can continue to swell, be fully funded, and enrich themselves through their propaganda and hysteria.
Now check out this hilarious – and poorly done – propaganda – the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism. Yes, such a place exists, and you can bet that your dollars fund it because it is a part of California State University. The photo on the top right switches beween a photo of black children sandwiched in between a photo of Hitler and the Klu Klux Klan! Oh brother. This is B-grade derangement.

I liked this recent description of Congress by Fred Reed:
535 commoditized temple monkeys pawing through the ruins of America in search of bribes.

Always beware of people who defend the ‘stimulus’ package by saying: ‘but we have to do SOMETHING’. What does that mean? Is something always preferable to nothing? Is the act of doing something a good in itself or is its main purpose to show the world that liberals care enough to do something? That’s it isn’t it? Obama, his slack-jawed followers and the evildoers in Congress are proving to the world that they CARE. Well – that will provide small comfort as our economy drops off a cliff.

The demand, “We-have-to-do-SOMETHING”, is a debate tactic used by the statist who lacks the intelligence or honesty to justify his proposed power grab. One can expose the idiocy by responding, “Okay, if we have to do something (and “something” implies that ANYTHING will suffice), then let’s abolish this bureaucracy, eliminate this tax, repeal this statute, etc., so that millions of American will be able to DO SOMETHING to repair their government-ravaged finances.” An intellectually honest statist will pause to consider. The idiot/liar will parrot the objection of the central planners in ATLAS SHRUGGED (all together now): “Noooo! We CAN’T do THAAAAAAT!” I have one liberal relative whose habitual response to reason is beginning statist demands with the word maybe, as in, “Maybe [insert proposed power grab] will work, if everybody works together.”

Karen, funny you referenced this Cal State website. I actually went to this school, Cal State San Bernardino, and I also have known people that have worked there. Many programs there receive federal funding, and this one probably does, so everyone pays for it. As a former student, I can tell you that this place offers one of the worst educations from some of the most incompetent so called faculty, and the people that work there either do very little, or nothing at all in their daily work. Of course what else can you expect from a government institution. Now that budgets are being cut, hopefully this center will go away.

This kind of propaganda, just fuels tension between the races and will escate things to the point of well, martial law. It’s what the powers that be want anyways.

Oh teh noes!!! Neo-Nazis in the military!
The solution, of course, is simple.
1. Immediately discharge all white people from the military, so as to prevent future recurrences.
2. Recruit back up to strength, by draft if necessary, from places like the offices of the Southern Poverty Law Center and their mailing/contributor lists. That way we can be sure of having a socially acceptable group of guys and gals whose job is to kill people and break things.
