No wonder, according to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Statistics report,
African American men between the ages of 19-35 who constitute 1.3% of the US
population committed 50% of the violent crimes in 2015. Juveniles, ages
13-18 are not included in these figures, so the actual exact number, which I
don’t have, is probably worse.

Guilt By Accusation
How Democrats use the tactics of Stalin’s prosecutors.
March 5, 2020
Bruce Hendry
Editors' note: Below is Part 3 of a new essay
written by Bruce Hendry: Democrats, Progressives and Socialists.
Stay tuned for the ensuing chapters. [See links to previous chapters below this
article].
*
6. Guilt By Accusation.
Brett Kavanaugh is an outstanding jurist who was nominated by
Donald Trump to the U.S. Supreme Court. Nothing from his judicial past could be
seriously be challenged by the Democrats, so at the exact moment when it would
cause the most damage, they charged him with groping Christine Blasey Ford at a
party 37 years before, when he was all of 15 years old.
Ford, couldn’t initially remember in what year it happened,
although she eventually decided on 1982, or where it occurred, or how she got
to the party or home from the party. She did remember the names of four
people that were at the party, including her best girlfriend. Not one of
those four people, including her own girlfriend, remember the incident. Her
girlfriend said that she had never met Brett Kavanaugh.
End of story, right? To any fair minded person this woman is
either mentally unbalanced or a liar, and the fact that this accusation was
withheld for 37 years and then made at the precise moment that would cause the
most damage to the Supreme Court nominee would strike any normal person as
being staged. The Democrats, both Group Two Democrats, the politicians and
Group One Democrats, the loyal but clueless big hearted group rallied behind
this ridiculous and destructive tale.
“Guilty until proven innocent;” “she wouldn’t lie because she’s a
woman;” “If you don’t believe her, you are insulting every woman that has been
sexually assaulted;” they said. But to believe Christine Ford one would also
have to believe that every accusing woman always tells the truth and that every
accused man lies.
In a “how to sell” seminar one learns about the “assumptive
close.” One assumes that the other party agrees with one’s assumption without
actually talking about it, then one proceeds to the close. The assumption here
was that if Brett Kavanaugh dry humped a girl when he was 15 years old, then 37
years later, as an adult, he would be disqualified from any responsible
position. There is no evidence that he did such a thing, but even if he did, as
a teenager, that certainly would not in itself disqualify him for responsible
positions for the rest of his life. That’s ridiculous. But that’s what the
Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee argued.
Millions of Democratic supporters ignored the basic legal
principle of innocent until proven guilty. Without a shred of corroborating
evidence they judged Kavanaugh guilty by accusation. This was reminiscent of
what Stalin’s prosecutors did in the infamous Moscow show trials. It’s
frightening to think that this tactic is being used today, successfully, by
Democrats, in America. The self-deception and group-think in this very
large group of Americans was frightening to watch.
7. Islamic Immigration Is Like All Other Immigrations.
7. Islamic Immigration Is Like All Other Immigrations.
The idea that Islamic immigration is just like all of the other
immigrants is100% wrong. The National press and Democrats have a double
standard when it comes to Islam. Islam is permitted to be against Jews and
Christians, but Jews and Christians cannot be against Islam. When Ilhan Omar,
the Muslim congresswoman from Minnesota’s 5th district accused Jews of being
traitors and buying the Democrat Party, nothing happened to her; but when Judge
Jeanine Pirro, a Fox news host returned the fire with a speech that was true,
she got suspended from her show.
The Koran make it very clear why Islam is a danger to any
non-Islamic society. If Islamic immigrants only brought their religion with
them, then I would not be writing this, but Islam is also a political and
military doctrine. Religion in Islam cannot be separated from politics and the
military - they come as part of the package. Islam is different than other
religions in that it is a total way of life that includes the mission to subdue
all other religions and establish a global Islamic Caliphate by any means
necessary. Islam includes a Constitution establishing Sharia Law. Muslims
consider the Koran to be the final revelation of God. Islamic law touches on virtually every aspect of
life and society, from banking and welfare, to family life, holy war against
infidels. the environment, and how many times a
man can shake his penis after he urinates, and which direction a person must
face when she defecates. Because the Qur’an is considered the unarguable and
final word of God, nothing in it can ever be changed or updated.
The word “Islam” does not mean “peace”, as the liberals seem to
think but “submission.” The rationale for Islam meaning “peace” is that if
everybody in the world submits to Islam then there will be peace. Islam
actually means violence to subdue the world for Allah, and only then peace.
Islam does not allow for the “corrupt” western ideas of democracy, freedom,
tolerance and equality. It’s easier to understand Islam if you substitute the
literal translation of “Islam” into the 5 Pillars of the faith. For instance
the 1st Pillar of Islam “ becomes “The First Pillar of Submission.”
Christianity is about being a good person; Islam is about being an obedient
Muslim.
What, you may ask, is the cultural battle that has been waged by
Islam against the West for the last 1,400 years? It’s virtually everything that
we hold dear in a free western society. Here are the Islamic values that the
progressive left is so intent on protecting:
Censored Speech: Islam forbids freedom of speech, and
speaking against Islam, Mohammed or Allah is called blasphemy and is punishable
by death. In ancient times Jews and Christians had similar rules, but Islam has
them today and, every Saturday, beheadings, stoning to death and amputations
are carried out in the public square in major cities in Saudi Arabia.
Islam Uber Alles. The Koran is very precise in dividing the world
into, Dar al-Islam, “the house of peace” and Dar al-Harb, the “house of war”
which is the rest of the world that is waiting to be conquered by Islam.
Leaving Islam for another religion is punishable by death.
Subordination of Women: In the West, we value women’s rights. In
Islam, the women are considered property, to be controlled by their father
before they are married and by their husband after they are married. Every
woman is subject to a wali, a male guardian. She requires his permission
to do almost anything of importance. Yet the head of the so-called Women’s
March, Linda Sarsour is a Muslim, and a strong advocate of the Shari’a
laws that keep women in their place.
Theocratic Dictatorship: The American idea of the separation of
church and state is anathema to Islam. In Islam, religion and state are one.
Political Submission: The right to vote and to choose your own
political leaders and to create and enforce your own laws is condemned by Islam
as a corrupt western idea.
Inequality under the law: In Islam, men have more rights than women,
and Muslims have more rights than non-Muslims.
I think the easiest way to understand Islam is to understand that
this is a cult conceived of by a brilliant individual named Mohammad centered
around himself. It is not that different from other cults in which the
adherents were willing to kill and or die for their master. In Islam today
there are innocent victims that are killed somewhere in the world every day in
the name of Islam, and those Islamic killers are victims too, they are victims
of the Islamic cult which not only allows for this kind of violence but also encourages
it through the teachings of the Koran and the Islamic concept of holy war
or jihad.
The Koran instructs its believers to convert the whole world to
Islam and they have done a pretty good job of it over the centuries. Now, in
addition to exploiting western values of democracy and inclusion to their own
advantage they have another potent weapon, much more dangerous than the suicide
bombers - the weapon of demographics, of their birth rate. Pew research reports
that the Islamic birth rate is the highest of any religion in the world and is
2x that of the world at large - even more when considering the low birth rates
of United States or Europe. In many countries, France and Israel come to mind,
the Muslims will eventually be the largest number of voters and then they can
and will take over the country at the ballot box.
We in the United States should be worried about Islam because
there has never been a time in history that Islamic authorities taught the
equality of non-Muslims with Muslims, and there has always been, with no
historical interruption, Jihad, the Holy war against the Infidel.
8. Censorship.
8. Censorship.
How, you ask, can Democrats get by with their lies? There are many
reasons, but political correctness and the censorship of opposing ideas in both
the university culture and the nation’s corrupt press are two of the most
important.
Wikipedia says that politically correct speech “is used to
describe language, policies, or measures that are intended to avoid offense or
disadvantage to members of particular groups in society.” In other words, you
cannot say what you observe or what the actual facts would suggest if it
offends a protected group. Political correctness (censorship) keeps an honest
discussion from happening. This is particularly prevalent when talking about
racial issues.
For instance, the black kids in a St. Paul school were getting
suspended at greater rates than white kids, so a policy went out in the school
district not to suspend the black kids. What wasn’t said, what you couldn’t
say, is that black kids did more things that required suspension than the white
kids. When a black male teacher at the school actually said that, he was fired.
In Florida a mentally disturbed student “of color” accumulated a laundry list
of infractions, including violent attacks that merited suspension and
investigation. But because he was the member of a protected group, nothing was
done. He eventually murdered 17 people in one of the country’s largest school
shootings.
Politically correct speech is enforced, not by a logical
thoughtful response based on facts, but by a personal attacks on the offender
and penalties that can be career-ending. This tactic is so effective that
even the black teacher in the St. Paul school was not protected from being
fired for saying the truth. The policy of treating minority youth as an
endangered species actually hurts them in the long run. Being exempt from
punishment for bad behavior only encourages more bad behavior and more serious
bad behavior, which eventually will have consequences.
Political correctness is a term that was coined by the Communist
dictator and mass murderer MaoZedong to keep party members in line. It has been
revived by the political Left to stifle discussion on issues that they cannot
defend with facts, common sense or logic. For instance, you can’t say things
like IQ tests on African-Americans, as a group, over the last fifty years have
consistently shown that as a group, they are 15 points below the median. That’s
a fact. It’s true. You can easily look up this fact for yourself, but you can’t
actually say it because of the politically correct rules. If you even talk
about that disparity, you will be labeled a racist and as a result, that
important fact is never brought into the discussion on how to improve the
opportunities for African-American youth. Ignoring important facts like this
and pretending that they don’t exist means that educational improvement for the
African American community will never happen. Insisting on politically
correct speech on this issue, which is meant to protect Black Americans,
actually makes them victims.
According to the politically correct, blacks are discriminated
against by the white establishment and incarcerated at much higher rates
by a racist criminal justice system. To suggest otherwise makes you a
racist. Whites, and all Americans, both black and white, have reasons to
be wary of young black men. 78% of inner city black men have grown up in
a household that did not have the moderating influence of a married adult male
figure living with them. 75% of black males [in Minneapolis and I presume in
other large urban areas] have not graduated from high school.
No wonder, according to the FBI’s Uniform Crime Statistics report,
African American men between the ages of 19-35 who constitute 1.3% of the US
population committed 50% of the violent crimes in 2015. Juveniles, ages
13-18 are not included in these figures, so the actual exact number, which I
don’t have, is probably worse.
These facts are easily verified on the FBI’s Uniform Crime
statistics, which breaks out violent crime by race. Because of the pc
censorship one cannot refer to these realities without being blasted as a
racist and excluded from the discussion about race and racial equality.
The “race card” is regularly deployed by Democrats and their
supporters to silence their opposition. Whites are accused of being “racist”
and yet 97% of African-Americans will vote for a black person like Obama who
had virtually no credentials for any job, much less President of the United
States. Can you imagine a white man, the same age, with exactly the same
credentials and work experience being elected President of the United States?
Of course not. Who then is actually racist?
I don’t think most white Americans are racist in terms of judging
a person based on the color of their skin. I do think white Americans judge the
black community, as a whole, based on their dysfunctional culture of violence,
being on welfare and having the majority of their children out of wedlock.
This, of course, produces dysfunctional children who create many of our social
and criminal problems. It’s not about the color of a persons skin. It’s about
culture. Inner city black culture is different from the middle class culture
of whites, Asians and other minorities, and while political correctness
enforces silence on these issues, most people are aware of them.
The politically correct claim that women earn less money than
men for the same work and skill sets. One can’t say that pay for women is
lower than men’s pay for a reason, which is that women get pregnant, raise
children and seek jobs with more flex time for less pay. Because of the
training needed for most executive level jobs, women have less long term
potential for a firm than an equally qualified male. When experience and the
time at the job are factored in, women actually make slightly more than men.
If one dares to mention these facts, he (or she) will be labeled a
sexist. Consequently, no discussion occurs on this subject and so the fiction
that there is a grave social injustice being perpetrated on women can become a
centerpiece of the Democrat Party’s platform.
If it was true that women make less than men for the same job,
then a profit minded manager would fire all of the men and replace them with
lower cost women. That doesn’t happen, of course, because it isn’t true.
Hate Speech. Progressives have invented a new category of speech
which they call “hate speech,” which they say falls outside of the protection
of the First Amendment. Of course, they get to decide what “hate speech” is.
Google and Facebook have taken it upon themselves to remove “hate speech” from
their services, which in many cases is just mainstream conservative thought
based on the facts just discussed, which are politically incorrect. This
illustrates the problem of controlling “hate speech,” as it gives the persons
or groups the authority to shut down ideas that they don’t like, and hide facts
that are inconvenient.
The Amerian Civil Liberties Union used to be a protector of free
speech, no matter how abhorrent it was to the listener, but recently two
hundred ACLU employees signed a letter complaining that the group’s “broader
mission” was being undermined by a “rigid stance” on free speech. Even Alan
Dershowitz, the former President of the ACLU, has come to the conclusion that
the ACLU has dropped their free speech mandate in order to assist Democrats.
Democrats represent the groups that benefit financially from the
government. Raising taxes is a good thing for them as it gives them the ability
to buy more votes. Raising taxes at the State level to a point that taxpayers
leave the State in order to escape those taxes would seem like a bad bargain
for that state, and indeed it is, but it also gets rid of those citizens that
have the financial ability to oppose Democrats.
This kind of tax policy is bad for the State. It’s bad for those
who feel they have to leave the State, and it’s bad for those who stay because
they lose good citizens and they lose the taxes they used to pay. But it’s
politically good for for Democrats. It’s the ultimate censorship: getting rid
of those that would vote against you. Remember, for the progressive left it
isn’t about helping people; it’s about using people to get what you really
want: power. Throughout history, from Alexander the Great until
today, it’s about power.
Without freedom of speech, we are not free. Lots of places have
market economies and democratic forms of government. Only the United States has
the guarantee of free expression. It’s what sets America apart. Freedom of
speech doesn’t exist for the sake of those in power, it exists to safeguard the
rights of the unpopular and those out of step. There is nothing more
infuriating to a ruling class than contrary opinions. But free speech becomes a
meaningless concept in a world where there is only one permissible set of
political views, as in our colleges and – increasingly – K-12 schools.
Anyone brave enough to challenge the core beliefs of the
Left with facts logic or common sense is met with personal attacks on them and
their family. Both Maxine Waters, a prominent Democrat and Hillary Clinton are
advising Democrats to “ get into the face of Republicans, follow them into
restaurants, theaters and their places of business and harass them”. Hillary
says that we can’t respect Republicans because of their wicked philosophy.
Mis-led by such leaders, many Americans under the age of thirty
don’t believe in unfettered free speech. According to a recent Pew survey, 40%
of millennials think the government should have the power to ban statements
that might be offensive to minority groups. This is an ominous sign for
America’s future.

CITY JOURNAL
ILLEGALS AND THEIR
CRIME TIDAL WAVE
Critics of illegal immigration argue that the
crime rates of illegal aliens are higher than those of the American population
generally, or at least of legal immigrants. The New York Times has denied that illegals commit more crime than other groups, but
the paper bases its claim on a Cato Institute study that relies on questionable data. In fact, nobody can calculate
with accuracy the crime rates of illegal immigrants or any other social group
unless they have reliable data on the size of the group, and we simply don’t
know how many illegal aliens there are in the United States.
Nationwide data on crime by illegal aliens is
unavailable mainly because most states don’t keep such records. For
instance, California, with Hispanics making up more than 43 percent of its
incarcerated population, provides no information on the alienage of its inmates.
Texas does, though, and its Department of Public Safety reports that illegal aliens were arrested and charged with more
than 298,000 crimes, an average of over 39,000 per year, from June 1, 2011 to
the end of 2018. Though some of these arrests were for nonviolent crimes, such
as theft, burglary, or drug offenses, they also include many violent crimes:
624 homicides, 1,911 robberies, and 3,955 sexual assaults (which, under Texas
law, include rapes).
While these figures sound disturbing, we can’t
say with certainty if they are high relative to the size of the illegal
immigrant population because, as noted above, we really don’t know how many
there are. A 2014 estimate by the Pew Research Center pegged the Texas figure at
1,650,000, or 6.3 percent of the state’s entire population. Homeland Security
offered a higher estimate for 2015: 1,940,000, which accounted for 7.3 percent of
the state’s population.
Among all arrests for selected offenses over the
period 2012 to 2017, illegal aliens were taken into custody for homicide (which
includes murder and manslaughter) in numbers greater than their population size
would predict. They accounted for nearly 10 percent of all apprehended killers,
whereas, using the high-end DHS estimate, they make up 7.3 percent of the Texas
population. For all other crimes, however, including burglary, drugs, theft,
robbery, and weapons offenses, their apprehension percentages ranged from 2.5
to 6.7 percent—in other words, below their putative population size.
The crime of homicide provides the most accurate
measure, though, because a much higher proportion of murders are solved by
police—around 70 percent—than for any other crime; by contrast, fewer than 15
percent of property offenses lead to an arrest. As a result, we have much more
accurate demographics for murderers than for, say, burglars. The indication
that illegal aliens commit disproportionate numbers of murders is corroborated
by crime rates, shaky though they may be, for 2014 and 2015—the two years for
which we have population estimates from Pew and DHS. In 2014, Texas
illegal-alien murder-arrest rates were 4.99 per 100,000—56 percent higher than
the rates for all other apprehended murderers (3.2 per 100,000). In 2015, the
rates were 35 percent higher for illegal aliens (4.2 per 100,000, versus 3.1
per 100,000).
Granted, neither the rates nor the percentages of
illegal aliens arrested are overwhelmingly high. And the rates and percentages
for other crimes that they commit are below those of the arrested citizen and
legal-alien populations. Still, illegal aliens account for nearly 10 percent of
the apprehended murderers in Texas, and over 39,000 of the annual arrests for
crime overall. These figures are significant, reflecting crime in a single
state with an outsize number of illegal aliens—a small part of the nationwide
picture.
No amount of crime by those who enter this
country unlawfully should be acceptable, because it is “extra” crime that
wouldn’t occur if our border security were effective. Crime by illegal aliens
is costly. The real issue underlying the current public debate is whether the
crimes of illegal immigrants are so numerous that they provide a compelling
reason, or at least a powerful supporting argument, for urgent spending to
secure our southern border. Judging by Texas the answer, though not
incontestable, seems to be “yes.”
