Millions more Americans move to new states
Americans are on the go again, moving across state lines at the highest rate since the early 1990s, according to a USA TODAY analysis of Census data.
Demographers say the jump is fueled largely by two highly mobile segments of the population:
• Immigrants who have left traditional gateway states and fanned out across the USA in search of jobs and lower living costs.
Hence, North Carolina and Georgia had the fastest Hispanic growth rate between 1990 and 2000.
Idaho’s Bannock County is experiencing an influx, says Gynii Gilliam, executive director for Bannock Development in Pocatello. Petersen, a specialized steel manufacturer based in Utah, recently held a job fair to fill 250 jobs at its new plant in Idaho. “Twenty-five percent are coming from out of the area, mostly other states, and most … from the West Coast,” she says.
Those are largely whites escaping an increasingly diverse Califaztlan.

This story is a bit old in internet time (November 11), as I found it on St. Louis Cop Talk, but it’s still a worthy read.
Jennings takes back the streets
Jennings — In the summer and fall of 2005, Jennings had a big problem: Street gangs were terrorizing the city.
“The gangs almost ballooned overnight,” said Dave Joyce, a detective with the increasingly outflanked Jennings police. “There was just shooting after shooting after shooting.”
Of the 12 murders from 2004 to early 2007, each involved an illegal gun. Seven were gang or drug-related, as were all 31 nonfatal shootings, Joyce said. Residents were becoming afraid to step outside.
Much of the violence came from the turf of a gang that called itself the “10-20 Murderville Crips.”
When its members saw something they liked, they took it, police said. When they wanted to do something, they did it. They bought or stole pistols, assault rifles and bulletproof vests.
The gang was even dealing with a broker offering a military land mine and perhaps hand grenades, upping the ante as local officers and federal agents already knew of a plan to ambush police.
(snip)
Three were linked to murders in St. Louis, one matched an armed robbery and one was used in the 2006 shooting of a St. Louis police officer. Police also recovered assault rifles used in four drive-by shootings in St. Louis and St. Louis County.
As early as 2003, police had found a hit list on the wall of an abandoned building, naming four Jennings officers. Police have since found other such lists.
In interviews before and during the collaboration with ATF, gang members told Jennings officers about specific plans to assassinate police. The plans included sniper rifles, assault weapons and a home-made tire spike strip.
Investigators worried that grenades or a Claymore anti-personnel mine might complete the gang’s arsenal.
Joyce said some gang members had told officials, “We have plotted out ways to set up ambushes and murders of police officers. And we have discussed specific officers that we would like to do this to.”
The investigators also learned that gang members were as interested in the cops as the cops were in the gangsters — gathering information about who did what in the department, and calling the station to find out who was on duty, Joyce said.
The gang even had the name, vehicle description and workplace of one officer’s girlfriend.
The interesting angle here is that the black gangs in Jennings (and presumably elsewhere) are becoming more audacious, more bold, and more virulently anti-police. I have predicted for some time that this would happen, and I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that these gang members have been receiving advanced training somewhere else, and bringing the knowledge back to the streets.
Otherwise, the tone of this article is that the Federal government and its law enforcement is the only institution that can solve the problem. (That seems to happen a lot). Unfortunately for Jennings, convictions of felon-in-possession and selling-to-felons don’t draw life terms in prison, and eventually, they’ll be back on the streets. And while they’re incarcerated, new gangs will coalesce in Jennings. After all, just as soon as you chop down weeds, more pop up.
In this case, the Federal government has a band-aid, not a solution.

Latest Incident Of Violence At Hazelwood Prompts Response
Two Hazelwood high school students have been taken into custody after a gun was reportedly fired outside of Hazelwood Central High School.
The incident happened after school hours on Monday night.
Charles McCrary, a former St. Louis police officer and safety director for the St. Louis Public School District, was hired to deal with a series of threats and violence in the Hazelwood School District. McCrary was hired for three months at $100 an hour for 20 hours per week.
Since October, there have been five bomb threats in the district and two guns have been found — one was loaded.
(snip)
Over the next three months, McCrary said he’ll visit every school in the district. At the end of that time period, he’ll present the school board with a new safety plan.
Whatever this new “safety plan” is, I’m sure it has already been thought of and implemented in other places. And yet, the Hazelwood School District finds it necessary to dump superlawyer hourly compensation rates on this affirmative action flunkie.

Community colleges ordered to let in illegal immigrants
RALEIGH — North Carolina’s community college system has ordered the state’s 58 campuses to admit illegal immigrants, overturning a policy of letting the heavily enrolled schools set their own rules for handling undocumented applicants.
David Sullivan, the system’s top lawyer, dispatched a memo this month telling the community colleges that state regulations require the schools to admit illegal immigrants who meet the schools’ basic requirements of being either a high school graduate or an adult in need of skills training.
(snip)
The state’s community colleges focus on training and retraining the work force, usually through skills and trade education. Melinda Wiggins is executive director of Student Action With Farm Workers, which helps children of migrant farm workers get into high school and college. She said barring illegal immigrants from community colleges penalizes youths who were brought to the United States as children.
Funny, Mike Huckabee let out the same bromide last night during the YouTube debates. He and Melinda Wiggins must be distant cousins.
If you snuck into Mexico and took your children with you, do you think anyone there would be jonesing to allow your children to attend Mexican colleges and universities? Would there be the Mexican equivalents of Melinda Higgins and Mike Huckabee worried about “penalizing youths?”
Community college executives said the admissions guidelines won’t cost the state. Illegal immigrants must pay out-of-state tuition, $7,465 for a full class load, which is more than the actual cost of providing the education, $5,375, the officials said.
And where will these children of these financially destitute farm and factory workers come up with $7,465 a year? It may not cost the state of North Carolina, but it’ll cost you.
Another (Presumably) Liberal Study, (Almost) the Same Results November 28, 2007

AP:
WASHINGTON - U.S. fourth-graders have lost ground in reading ability compared with kids around the world, according to results of a global reading test.
Test results released Wednesday showed U.S. students, who took the test last year, scored about the same as they did in 2001, the last time the test was given — despite an increased emphasis on reading under the No Child Left Behind law.
Still, the U.S. average score on the Progress in International Reading Literacy test remained above the international average. Ten countries or jurisdictions, including Hong Kong and three Canadian provinces, were ahead of the United States this time. In 2001, only three countries were ahead of the United States.
(snip)
On the latest international exam, U.S. students posted a lower average score than students in Russia, Hong Kong, Singapore, Luxembourg, Hungary, Italy and Sweden, along with the Canadian provinces of Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario.
Last time, Russia, Hong Kong and Singapore were behind the United States.
(snip)
_Among jurisdictions that took the test in 2001 and 2006, scores improved in Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Italy, Russia, Singapore, the Slovak Republic and Slovenia.
_Average test scores declined in England, Lithuania, Morocco, the Netherlands, Romania and Sweden. England, the Netherlands and Sweden were the top three performers in 2001. Sweden still outperformed the United States this time, but average scores in England and the Netherlands were not measurably different from the U.S. average.
_Girls scored higher than boys in the United States and all other countries except for Luxembourg and Spain, where the boy-girl scores were the same.
_The average U.S. score was above the average score in 22 countries or jurisdictions and about the same as the score in 12 others. The U.S. average fell toward the high end of a level called “intermediate.” At that level, a student can identify central events, plot sequences and relevant story details in texts. The student also can make straightforward inferences from what is read and begin to make connections across parts of the text.
And all of this is in spite of:
The 2002 No Child Left Behind law requires schools to test students annually in reading and math, and imposes sanctions on schools that miss testing goals.
(and)
U.S. kids seem to get more reading instruction than others. U.S. teachers were more likely to report teaching reading for more than six hours per week than those elsewhere.
White countries that are becoming more non-white, like the USA, the UK, the Netherlands and Sweden, will continue to decline in these quintennial rankings.

FORT WORTH (CBS 11 News) ? Every American’s vote counts. It’s a basic pillar of our electoral system.
But a CBS 11 investigation discovered that election officials can’t guarantee that only American citizens vote in elections.
After the review of data from Tarrant and Dallas Counties, it appeared, at least on the surface, that some non-citizens were participating in U.S. elections.
Since 1976, 1,900 people have been removed from the voter rolls because of their citizenship status in Dallas County. Of those, 221 had voter histories.
Tarrant County election data from 2004 and 2005 shows 43 people have been removed from the voter rolls, but none had voter histories.
It appeared there was a problem. Officials admit some illegal immigrants could be seeking to participate in U.S. elections.
This was covered in the Citizens Informer almost seven years ago. At least 3 million illegal aliens voted in the November 2000 elections.

Proving that there is not a direct correlation between personal wealth and intelligence. Even with the American peso sinking against every currency on Earth except the Zimbabwe dollar, it would be insane to link us monetarily with Mexico and Central America. And for any Canadian to want this is even more insane, because the Canadian dollar is at historical highs against many world currencies, including the American peso.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Gov. Matt Blunt says he will support legislation barring the state from issuing driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.
Blunt says the state already has safeguards intended to prevent illegal immigrants from getting driver’s licenses. But he says Missouri lacks a specific law against it.
The governor says his proposal will include criminal penalties for people who help illegal immigrants get driver’s licenses. But the governor did not detail those proposed penalties in a news release.
Some of the liberal bloggers in this state are already claiming that this is Blunt PR stunt, and that it’s unnecessary because of the “safeguards.” This is similar to 2004, when Missourians voted to approve a state constitutional amendment that defined marriage as that only between one man and one woman. The state already had laws stating such, but the vote in Missouri, which was the the first among similar votes in many other states, was held in reaction to the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court finding their state’s similar law unconstitutional. These constitutional amendments were needed to head off at the pass similar judicial tricks in other states.
However, legally precluding illegal aliens from getting drivers’ licenses is only one-tenth of the battle. Remember, just because they don’t have official licenses doesn’t mean they can’t and won’t drive — the St. Louis area has already seen the tragic consequences of that.

Oh, the wasted chances that he was given…to become a truly stellar leader — Twice, the first in late 1998/early 1999, and the other after the Strom Thurmond birthday party in late 2002, when the mainstream media mentioned his name in juxtaposition with the Council of Conservative Citizens many times, he could have propelled himself to the stratosphere of American political power and respect, and could have turned the American body politic right-side-up for the sake of white racial nationalism.
Instead, he pandered and backpeddled (and made himself look like a liar in the process), and in spite of his supposed contempt for President Bush, whom he blames for his ouster as Senate Majority Leader in late 2002, he poodled right along with President Bush in the effort earlier this year to enact soft amnesty “Comprehensive Immigration Reform,” and not long after, in a mafia-esque fashion, blamed talk radio for its failure, and stated that it was a “problem” that “had to be dealt with” (presumably with concrete shoes).
All that is moot now, because he will never dance again, come the end of this year.
Officially, Trent Lott is resigning from the Senate to “pursue other opportunities.” Translated into English, this means that he’s going to cash in on his political knowledge and influence, most likely by being hired by some D.C. law firm, a PAC, or another group of lobbyists. He won re-election in 2006, but he would be 71 years old at the end of this term, and he wanted to be able to “cash in” while he still had some coherent years left.
Speaking of opportunities, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour has a big one, and his appointment to replace Lott will be a significant acid test. We might get the next Bilbo, but we’re also as likely to get a corporate stooge cheap labor-loving neocon. Barbour will communicate a lot about himself through his choice.

But I suppose he would feel safe in an institution that would run the risk of being easy pickings for the next Cho that comes along.

AFP:
Military training program for teens expands in US
CHICAGO (AFP) - Dozens of teens dressed in uniforms provided by the US Marines stand at attention in the gym of a Chicago public high school as a drill sergeant goes through a list of the day’s do’s and don’ts.
(snip)
This is particularly troubling given that the programs are concentrated in low-income and minority neighborhoods, said Sheena Gibbs, a spokeswoman for the Chicago branch of the American Friends Service Committee which lobbies against the programs.
“If you want to teach discipline and leadership then do it for everyone and don’t make them wear (military) uniforms,” Gibbs said. “Students (at regular schools) protest that they have to still share books but the military academy has laptops.”
(snip)
And every morning in formation, Sgt. Major Smith draws a line between the discipline and stability of the Marines and the chaos of the high-crime, low income neighborhood where most of the students live.
“My elementary school was out of control. Everybody just did whatever they wanted,” said Mariah Coleman, 14.
“Here there’s discipline, but there’s freedom as well. Everybody just respects each other and we get respect from the teachers.”
Why does it take a quasi-military program to bring discipline to “low-income and minority” schools? Other schools haven’t had severe discipline problems, even without J-ROTC.

Wounded Iraq veterans driven out of public pool when told they might scare children
Soldiers who suffered appalling injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan were verbally abused as they swam in a public swimming pool.
During a weekly rehabilitation class at a council leisure centre, 15 servicemen – including several who have lost limbs or suffered severe burns – were heckled and jeered by members of the public.
One woman was so incensed that the troops were using the pool at Leatherhead Leisure Centre in Surrey that she told them they did not deserve to be there.
She became increasingly abusive, screaming that it was wrong for staff to rope off a lane exclusively for the injured personnel from the nearby Headley Court rehabilitation centre.
I thought we weren’t supposed to insult people for their physical disabilities. In fact, in some American states, including Missouri, physical disability is a category that can bring hate crimes riders.

Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) was a guest on the Charles Jaco show this morning on Channel 2, and Jaco pressed her about HRC’s prospects of winning Missouri. The question was how can HRC appeal to the Republican-oriented religious conservatives in southern Missouri. McCaskill turned the question around on Jaco, and reminded us that Rudy Giuliani, the Republican “front-runner,” is a “kissing cousin” with HRC on those social issues, and that the Presidential election between RG and HRC would therefore be decided on other issues.
Bob Patterson’s Second Axiom states that if one of the two major political parties doesn’t campaign on racial issues (and when he said this, the “religious right” didn’t exist, but the axiom might as well include their watered-down brand of “social conservatism”), then the election will be decided on economic issues, and voters voting their pocketbooks tend toward the Democrats.
HRC wins if RG gets the Republican nomination.

I fear that Australia might have voted itself out of existence yesterday.
Aside from everything else, the most worrisome thing about Kevin Rudd, Australia’s new Labour Party Prime Minister, is that he is fluent in Chinese. Usually, it’s no big deal that heads of state are conversant in foreign languages, but the reason that an Australian PM speaking Chinese is particularly worrisome is the same reason why President Bush’s fluency in Spanish is worrisome. The reason is immigration pandering.
Consider: There are 1.3 billion Chinese, and 19 million white Australians. The Chinese are already Australia’s largest minority, and it wouldn’t take that large of a fraction of China’s population to “immigrate” to Australia, nor that much time, for Australia to become an appendage of China itself.

And the city has let a $285,000 contract to a marketing firm to produce a plan to sell such naming rights. No wonder Chicago doesn’t have any money.

Denver diversity-training video said to ‘hammer the white guy’
The city of Denver is showing its employees a diversity training video that portrays a white man as a narrow-minded buffoon — triggering allegations of “institutional racism” against Anglos.
“Right now, their diversity program is racially motivated against white males,” said Dennis Supple, a heating, ventilating and air-conditioning mechanic who has worked for the city 1 1/2 years.
The video, titled “Laughing Matters — Think About It,” is meant to show employees how humor at the expense of others diminishes respect in the workplace.
The character who breaks all the rules is Billy, a white, blue-collar worker who’s a racist, sexist goofball.
A commenter wrote:
I am Caucasian. I was once very pointedly told by a (non-white) Denver city-worker “You people are the n*gg*rs now!” I never reported it. What would be the point? She would deny it.

Search uncovers relics of historic 1861 battle
Archaeologists picking through the wooded ridges east of Boonville, Mo., have unearthed enough old bullets and buttons to map out parts of the first battle of the Civil War in Missouri.
The searchers used sophisticated metal detectors to look for evidence of the battle on June 17, 1861, in central Missouri between Union soldiers from St. Louis and state militiamen allied with then-governor Claiborne Jackson, who wanted Missouri to join the Confederacy. The Union soldiers routed the militiamen in what the victors called the “Boonville races.”
(snip)
The site is about five miles east of Boonville along the old Rocheport Road. Union soldiers under Gen. Nathanial Lyon had moved up the Missouri River by steamboat from St. Louis and chased Jackson and the militia out of Jefferson City. They clashed near Boonville more than a month before the first Battle of Bull Run near Manassas, Va., regarded as the first major battle of the Civil War.
This wasn’t a battle, this was a military coup de guerre. Gen. Lyon, by “chasing Gov. Jackson and the militia out of Jefferson City,” was overthrowing the duly-elected Missouri state government that wanted to secede from the union and join the Confederacy, and Gen. Lyon was obviously doing so at the behest of President Adolph Lenin. The Boonville Races were an attempt that the military arm of the deposed but legitimately-elected state government to break the invading army, and return to Jefferson City. Obviously, they failed, and the legitimate Missouri government was exiled to Texas.

Vulcan Blazers November 23, 2007
Posted by Webmaster in Affirmative Action, Racial Hoaxes.comments closed
A note with racial overtones and a knotted rope found in an East Baltimore firehouse early yesterday triggered a probe by the city’s fire and police departments, and the FBI has begun its own preliminary investigation into possible civil rights violations.
The note and the rope were discovered by two Fire Department employees — one black, one white — at the Herman Williams Jr. fire station at East 25th Street and Kirk Avenue. It was the second time in five months that the station has been hit with racial allegations.
(snip)
Yesterday, the local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Vulcan Blazers — a group that represents black city firefighters — demanded a federal investigation into the rope and note, while the fire union’s president said critics should not jump to conclusions.
(snip)
The discovery at the firehouse again threw a beleaguered department into turmoil over issues of race. In 2004, the department was criticized for hiring an all-white recruit class, and was pressed to change its testing and recruiting practices.
The department also is awaiting a report by the city’s inspector general, who investigated allegations that several black firefighters cheated on a promotion exam. That report is expected to be released next week, a City Hall spokesman said.
This sounds so familiar. Then again, since St. Louis is going through most of the same issues, don’t be surprised if a F.I.R.E. member hangs a noose at some firehouse in St. Louis City to gain sympathy. That said, one can already see where this writer’s accusatory mind is running with this Baltimore incident.
Though I should say that, if nothing else, the black rabble-rousing firefighters’ union in Baltimore chose a cool name for themselves.
Today’s Immigration Stack of Stuff November 23, 2007

(1) While it was a great thing that Americans were motivated to lobby their politicians to strike down the soft-amnesty “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” earlier this year, and several backdoor legislative attempts at the same later on in the year, e.g. DREAM Act, the dirty and unfortunate little secret is that the current President of the United States is for open borders, and so will the next President probably be. I could easily forsee a situation where President Bush grants a mass pardon to all and any future illegal aliens, though that drastic step would probably get him impeached. However, he is essentially doing just that, by neutering the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. After all, even if murder is still a crime on the books, if the cops never arrest anyone for murder, is it really still a crime?
(2) The AP profiles the saga of one Oscar Ayala-Cornejo, a young illegal alien from Mexico who, as a teenager, deliberately lifted the identity of his then-deceased second cousin, who was born on American soil and thus an American citizen, and who died of stomach cancer at age 7. He wanted to become a cop, but had to clear the background check. He eventually did become a cop in Milwaukee, and thought he was home-free. The only reason he was found out is that someone called ICE to snitch on him.
To read the AP article carefully is to think that they approve of identity theft by illegal aliens.
Remember, if you’re a white American that lives in Milwaukee, you couldn’t sneak into Mexico and become a cop in Mr. Ayala-Cornejo’s native Guadalajara. There are probably dozens of differences between the Mexican immigration system and the American one that would preclude it.
(3) David Brooks, writing an op-ed in the NYT, uncovers the Giuliani/sanctuary city smoking gun. In doing so, he unearthed this little RG gem from a UN immigration conference from 1995:
“Sometimes leadership means taking unpopular positions, rejecting harmful political fads.”
If that’s what he really believes, then why doesn’t he take that “unpopular position” now, and quit trying to deny that NYC under himself was a sanctuary city? Obviously, he wants the nomination of a political party dominated by the “dangerous” mobs of “Know-Nothings” that he hates so much.
