Who Are They, Again?

I see that the Fish-Eaters wrote something called a “pastoral letter” telling their fellow-travelers that we shouldn’t be deporting illegal immigrants.

Of course, being the modern-day Catholic Church, they couldn’t do that without resorting to a big fat lie, i.e. that ICE is deporting people “indiscriminately”, which of course they aren’t.  In fact, it’s amazing how precisely-targeted ICE deportations have become, going after the convicted criminals as a first priority.  In this, they have been quite successful, ridding the country of a motley collection of rapists, thieves, murderers, drug-dealers and child-traffickers, to name but some of the more egregious criminal career choices.  That along the way ICE has also scooped up some lower-level miscreants — illegal immigrants who’ve only committed that one crime — is not something to be deplored, despite the ecclesiastical wails of the Catholic bishops.

And it didn’t take long before there was an official response, delivered as it happened by a lifelong Catholic.

Glenn Reynolds is of the growing opinion that it’s time to abolish the tax-free status of all “nonprofit” organized institutions, and I’m very much in agreement.  Given how much the various buffet options of Christianity have supported, encouraged and enabled the mass influx of illegal immigrants — Catholics, Lutherans, whatever — I wouldn’t have a single problem if Congress were to pass a law not only prosecuting such efforts, but fining the organizations with proportionate sums to compensate the states for the expenses of providing said illegal immigrants with education, housing and welfare.  (California, New York, Illinois and those of that ilk would be welcome to turn down such penalty income, but I bet they wouldn’t.)

We’ll see how long the various churches would continue this nonsense as their bank accounts rapidly emptied.

Not even the Vatican is that wealthy.

More Like This, Please

It seems as though some people — quite a lot, really — have been Very Naughty and fraudulently voted in more than one election and on more than one occasion in each election.

Ohio Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose on Tuesday announced that he has referred more than 1,200 criminal cases related to election integrity to the Department of Justice for consideration of federal prosecution.

The state election official’s recommendations include 1,084 noncitizens who appear to have registered to vote unlawfully in Ohio, including 167 noncitizens who appear to have voted in a federal election in the past four election cycles.

LaRose said nearly 100 other people also appeared to have voted in a federal election twice in two separate states, and 16 people who allegedly voted twice in Ohio in the same election.

And if this has happened in Ohio, I’d suggest that it’s happened more often and for a longer time in garden spots like California, Illinois and New York, to name just the most likely suspects off the top of my head.

Of course, voting fraud is an actual felony, but if you think that anyone is going to see the inside of a jail cell for this crime, I would suggest that it’s time for you to go and clean out your unicorn’s stable.

As to which party might have benefited from all this skulduggery… let’s just say that I’m not accepting bets.

Catalog Of Horrors

Try this little lot of convictions in a single family:

Father, aged 43, was convicted of five counts of rape of a child under 13, one count of sexual assault by penetration of a child under 13, three counts of sexual assault of a child under 13, one count of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, and three counts of cruelty to a person under 16.

Mother, aged 43, was convicted of four counts of cruelty to a person under 16, two counts of false imprisonment, and one count of perverting the course of justice.

Grandfather, aged 70, was convicted of one count of sexual assault by penetration of a child under 13, and two counts of sexual assault of a child under 13.

Brother, aged 23, was convicted of four counts of rape of a child under 13, one count of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, and two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

Brother, aged 20, was convicted of four counts of rape of a child under 13, two counts of sexual assault of a child under 13, one count of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, and one count of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

Of course, the identities of these sick bastards are being withheld because privacy.

One little titbit, however, does open the door just a wee crack:

The girl said her mother would take money she was given by other family members as a gift for holidays such as Eid and spend it instead.

Ah… so they’re a family who belong to the Religion Of Peace, huh?  Why am I not surprised that the entire family was complicit in this.  And:

When the family were arrested in January this year, the girl was put into foster care.

While they were on bail, family members put pressure on the girl to change her story and say she had made up the allegations.

…all in the name of saving the family’s honor and good name, you see.

Anyway,  all this happened in Britishland, so these assholes will likely get light, possibly even suspended sentences instead of being flogged, flayed, hanged and their corpses fed to pigs (my idea of a fitting punishment).

But hey:  far be it for me to criticize the laws of other countries, right?

And lest I be accused of “Islamophobia” or any such nonsense, let me assure you that I’d feel exactly the same way if they were White Christians.

Actual Conspiracy

I’m not by nature a conspiracy theorist, until there’s proof — usually after the fact — that there really was a conspiracy.  Then I go, “I thought there was something going on.”  But I keep shtum as a matter of policy, because guys who find links between JFK’s assassination and Aristotle Onassis’s manipulation of the emerald trade in China (I swear, I once read such a piece SOTI)… well, really.

So last week the Brits discovered beyond all doubt that two actual spies were working for the Chicom government, and arrested them.  Then, mysteriously, “pressure was brought to bear” and all charges were dropped.

So read here about the Circle of 48, which explains the dismissal of the charges.  (Spoiler alert:  it happened because prosecution “would have angered the Chinese government”.)

And think about whether such a group exists here in the U.S.  It’s not so much a dotted line as it is a neon arrow.  We saw evidence of it before with the fake “Russian dossier” and the people within government who prepared it, used fake information to make it legal, leaked it to the press and tried to stymie a completely valid election.  And I’ll bet there are more being cooked up, as we speak.  You may suggest your own suspects as the dramatis personae  (people like that slimy little Brit Jonathan Powell, only with American accents).

Feel free to point out where I’m wrong.

Countermeasures

From the People’s Soviet of Portland:

An online anarchist platform encouraged people on Wednesday to shine lasers at federal helicopters in Portland, Oregon, a crime that law enforcement officials say can create extreme danger for pilots.

A post on the leftist, Portland-focused website “Rose City Counter-Info” tells viewers to scatter throughout the city’s streets on Saturday for the attack — nicknamed “Laser Tag” — as federal agents respond to demonstrations near the city’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility. The goal is to “ground” the helicopters by making it difficult to safely fly them and flash too many lasers for law enforcement to hunt down those using them, according to the anonymously-written post.

“All you need is a laser. Leave home – they can see where the laser is coming from,” the post reads. “Go to a park, a field, or some other public place, and once the clock strikes 9 unleash your beam at the cop copter. Mask up. Coordinate with friends to throw a laser party!”

“Let’s take back the night together!” the announcement continued. “It won’t take many of us to ground the helicopters!”

Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a few patriots scattered around said parks and fields, likewise equipped, so that when one of these goblins shines a laser up at a chopper, he or she could find themselves lit up in turn…

Burning The Doors

From Longtime Friend and Reader Martin K.:

Martin adds:

“I am gravely disappointed at the Belgian law enforcement authorities: why do I not hear the musical sound of heavy police batons bouncing off the skull of this illegal migrant egg-fryer?”

I should point out that Martin is German — and given how often I slag off the Krauts, I am amazed that I have any German Readers at all, yet I have a few — but as a Longtime Reader, his rather poetic comment should come as no surprise.

I also suspect that at times his opinion of his compatriots may be even more scathing than mine.

Bitte schreib mir öfter, mein Freund.  (With the usual apologies for my horrible German.)
