Diversity = Cultural Enrichment

California, Colorado, and now Ohio. As a former resident of Ohio, this got my attention:

Welcome to Springfield, Ohio. It’s a nice town of about 60,000 that the administration decided needed about 20,000 Haitians – flown in directly from Haiti, mind you. Injecting this wonderful diversity from arguably the worst place on the planet into a nice little Midwestern town has had the predictable effect. Remember all those swans and ducks that used to swim in the park? They’re gone. The Haitians ate them. They’ve also eaten pet cats and dogs. Yeah, they’re eating peoples’ pets, slaughtering and butchering them, and turning them into lunch. I guess the cash they’re getting from all of us for the privilege of being here illegally isn’t enough – they have to chow down on Fido. Naturally, the American citizens of Springfield are disgusted by this, as well as the other crime and pathological behavior they’re seeing. What does the government say? “Shut up, racists. Also, you’re probably transphobes.”

Bill,

On the reported killing and consumption of pets and wildfowl by Haitians in Springfield, these hilarious and politically effective memes and others like them are all over X today, attracting hundreds of thousands of views:

Bill,

Related to the Springfield story is the takeover of apartment complexes by violent Venezuelan gang members, all illegals, in Aurora, Co. Chris Rufo and Christina Buttons have just published an expose in City Journal, "Chaos in Aurora, which reveals "that the Biden-Harris Administration subsidized the Venezuelan migrants who took over the apartments in Aurora, Colorado, through a funnel of government agencies and left-wing NGOs': https://www.city-journal.org/article/chaos-in-aurora

Rufo sums up their research in a thread on x for those who don't have access to the article: https://x.com/realchrisrufo/status/1833600904479781075

I also call your attention to today's post by Malcolm Pollack (very happy to see him posting again) on the horrible events in Springfield, in which he calls attention to "The brazen audacity of this, even for a ruling oligarchy that makes no secret of its contempt for the ordinary Americans it rules, is simply astonishing": https://malcolmpollack.com/

Vito,

I've know about the Aurora problem for a some time now; just yesterday got wind of Springfield.

A local watering hole is having a debate fest this evening; think I'll stay home, though, and avoid the near occasion of violent confrontation. I really don't want to have to shoot anybody, not even a scumsucking leftard.

One friend wonders whether we'll even make it to November.

The insanity in this country and world is reaching demonic levels. What do you make of Dick and Liz Cheney? And David French, and . . . .

Thanks for the links. Be glad you're 78.

Bill,

On the demonic, which is omnipresent, the well-known exorcist, Fr. Chad Rippenger, reports the following this week: "“As exorcists, we’ve found that saying the Angelus at 6 am, noon, & 6 pm has the effect of keeping most people immune from diabolical influence. Doing it at 6 am, noon, & 6 pm develops spiritual discipline, & it has cleared out 90% of our caseload.” (https://www.usccb.org/prayers/angelus)

As a follow-on to Hannah Arendt's comment, I observe this about "AI," and its essential lying:

"AI" is a plague. "AI" is going to make people disbelieve everything new, and then after that, people will disbelieve everything new AND old. ALL will be assumed to be fake, except what you see locally with your own eyes; Reality will shrink to the size of a village in the Middle Ages, and some date will be assigned as the start of the "AI" era, and that date will stand with A.D. 476, the official date of the fall of Rome.

Sorry for the pessimism, but I find that I believe less and less these days.

Yes it's AI, but this is in the best tradition of cartooning a la Thomas Nast; everyone knows these are cartoons. Very hard-hitting ones, in fact.

If you want to recite the Angelus, here it is:

V/. The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary,
R/. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you;
blessed are you among women,
and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

V/. Behold the handmaid of the Lord,
R/. Be it done unto me according to your Word.
Hail Mary…

V/. And the Word was made flesh,
R/. And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary…

V/. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God,
R/. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.

Let us pray. Pour forth, we beseech you, O Lord, your grace into our hearts: that we, to whom the Incarnation of Christ your Son was made known by the message of an Angel, may by his Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of his Resurrection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
