Racism or prostitution?

I can’t imagine how anyone could possibly think this looks more like prostitution than a happy interracial couple engaged in romantic relations. I mean, don’t most white men with black girlfriends bang them in front of passersby in the front seat of the car parked on the side of the road with the door open?

I’m not often inclined to take the side of the police, but this is one of the most ridiculous attempts to get out of trouble by playing the race card I’ve ever seen.


Sanity does not prevail long

At this point, I’m rather looking forward to seeing the idiot Vikings get shellacked again. I don’t think this decision to deactivate AD again, this time indefinitely, is going to go over well with the Vikings fan base. It certainly hasn’t gone over well with the Vikings fans in the Day household:

The Minnesota Vikings placed Adrian Peterson on the Exempt/Commissioner’s Permission list, requiring the running back to abstain from team activities during his child-abuse case, the team announced Wednesday morning. Peterson was indicted last Thursday on a charge that he injured his 4-year-old son by spanking him with a tree branch. He was inactive for the team’s Week 2 loss to the New England Patriots but was reinstated Monday.

To be honest, I thought people were exaggerating when they talked about Goodell and Pink October being harbingers of the NFL’s downfall. But the invasion of the self-appointed SJW police into what used to be a man’s game is seriously killing the game in more ways that one.

As Ender commented, they could cut the number of flags being thrown in half and there would still be too many. At this point, I’d rather watch soccer than an NFL game just because most of the action one watches actually counts.

“soccer is way more gay than the NFL. …  i must believe it so. dear god please”

Perhaps once, but not anymore, I’m afraid. I’ve actually seen more serious injuries on the soccer field than on the football field. One of my teammates got a pair of ribs broken in our game last week, and I’ve seen numerous legs broken, including one nasty compound fracture that was sticking out through the skin.


Where was Jenny?

It should be interesting to see how the pro-vaxxers attempt to vaxsplain away these deaths:

As many as 36 children were reported to have died excruciating deaths last
night after receiving tainted measles vaccines under a UN-sponsored
programme in the rebel-held north of Syria. The programme was suspended amid rumours of sabotage of a high profile
international effort to ensure the brutal civil war does not result in an
outbreak of measles….

 “It’s very bad. The figures of dead we are getting go into the 30s. Children are dying very quickly,” said Daher Zidan, the coordinator of the medical charity, Uossm. “We think it will get worse.”

The Syrian opposition coalition, which controls the area of Idlib province and had been administering the programme, said it had halted the immunisation project forthwith. 

Maybe the vaccines were tainted or maybe their reporting system simply doesn’t define away lethal vaccine reactions by attributing them to other causes. If gunshot wounds were treated like vaccine reactions, we’d have a massive increase in the number of deaths attributed to inexplicably falling on the sidewalk in addition to a huge decline in the number of firearms homicides. Notice that despite all the complaints about unvaccinated American children and the thousands of imported measles cases, there have been ZERO deaths from measles since the disease was reported as eradicated from the USA in 2000. These days, the vaccine is literally deadlier than the disease.

While pro-vaxxers habitually blame Jenny McCarthy for nonexistent deaths that only take place on television, the actual deaths of those 30+ children are on the hands of the pro-vaccine advocates. And, again, note that any problem with measles in the USA has absolutely nothing to do with unvaccinated children, but is entirely the consequence of immigration and globalization.

According to the CDC, the nearly 600 cases of measles in 2014 represent “the highest number for one year since the disease was eliminated
from the country in 2000”.

Regarding the possible “tainting” of the vaccines:

“Medical experts said a contaminated batch of the vaccine was the most likely explanation for the incident…. At least five children have died and 50 others are suffering from poisoning or allergic reactions after measles vaccinations in Jirjanaz, in Idlib province,” the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.

Mohammad Mowas, a Syrian doctor working in Turkey, said the reported symptoms were a gradual slowdown in the heart rate as the infants turned blue and were consistent with cyanide poisoning. “This looks like deliberate attempt to spike the vaccines,” he said.

If the vaccines were spiked, I think we all know who the likely culprit must be….


Defeating the fiction police

The cartoon is from here. One autistic indy game developer points out that he doesn’t think praising the talking dog for the content of his speech is helping him:

Those in the gaming mass media think they’re doing people like me a favor, but they’re not. They’re smothering me and others like me. I know now there is no way they will hold my game truly accountable for any flaws it might ultimately have because they’ll think that any dismissal or criticism of the game as a whole will be a direct attack on autistic people, and it quite clearly is not. When people do dog pile on games that cover issues like this (I won’t name names but I’m sure you can fill in the blanks), it’s because of how the subject matter is approached, not that it was approached at all. The flaws of these games have been in their inability to truly connect with the people who play them, not that they had the audacity to attempt something new. If I had come forward before this, I would have been made a pet of the ‘social justice gaming crowd’, a person they could throw around to show how diverse and righteous they are, all while shielding themselves from criticism. I would be given preferential treatment just like I always have. It never ends….

Seeing a new game get ravaged for supposed sexism, racism, homophobia,
transphobia, ableism, etc. seemingly every week makes me feel less
inclined to want to write characters like Tinker, Hannah, or the many
others who will be playable in our game. To these people and
publications, all I have to ask is: is this what you want? Do you want
people to be too afraid to make inclusive art? Because whether that was
your intent or not, it’s what’s actually happening. It’s hard enough
investing all your money and time into making a studio, working for
years on a game that will eventually be judged by both critics and
consumers without then also having to be worried that those same critics
will sensationalize your game in order to make a few more big articles.

My answer is that the game developer should do as Harlan Ellison has suggested that the author do: answer them with the mighty power of your pen. By which he means to ignore them and write or develop whatever it is that YOU decide you want your book, or your game, to be.

Some people have already complained that FIRST SWORD has no female gladiators.  Tough. There is no need for them and so we’re not going to waste any time or development resources on them. And if the Social Justice Whores don’t like that, well, they are welcome to decry the lack of female slavery in our game to their heart’s content; it’s not going to make any difference whatsoever to me or to how well the game does.

The only power the Social Justice Whores have over you is the power you give them. Look at VP and its continually growing traffic. Look at Castalia and the increasing number of books it is publishing. Both have prospered despite the best efforts of the SJWs to attack them. There is no reason to give them even the slightest ground; doing so only inflames and encourages them. So don’t do it!

Root them out wherever they have infested, slap down all their attempts to invade and influence, and resolutely ignore them when they are safely on the outside. John C. Wright explains how they, and a panoply of other evils, will be defeated:

I submit that victory shall be ours by using the same methods we used to overthrow the Roman Empire and replace paganism with Christianity.

First, we must pray. We must live differently from the pagans around us, according to standards of higher discipline, displaying more fidelity in marriage, eschewing divorce, assisting the poor and downtrodden, and living lives so holy that even the devils are amazed.

Second, by being willing to suffer public scorn, loss of prestige, position, and fortune for Christ.

Third, by being open, vocal, coordinated, and relentless in our efforts. Fourth, by staying on message and never giving an inch.

Fifth and last, by showing the imagination of man that no one can live in the craven airless cesspool of the mental environment of political correctness, but that men flourish and grow strong and brave, not to mention more sexually appealing, in the walled gardens of the Church and the battlefields of life.

Stay on message. Never give an inch. Stop trying to play moderate in the hopes that you’ll escape the heat. Stop trying to win them over by telling them that you’re not opposed to them when, in fact, you are. You cannot reason with the willfully insane.


Scotland unenthusiastic about Red Ed

It’s absurd enough that a socialist Jew is seeking to be England’s Prime Minister. But it’s absurdity squared for Ed Miliband to campaign in Scotland on behalf of continued Scottish dependence:

Labour leader Ed Miliband was today hounded out of an Edinburgh shopping centre as a campaign walkabout became overrun by protesters.

He was repeatedly branded a ‘f***ing liar’ by Yes campaigners who drowned out his supporters with cries of ‘bow down to your imperial master.

Mr Miliband pleaded for a ‘civilised’ debate with two days of campaigning left before the referendum, before being rushed out of the door by his aides, who were left ‘visibly shaken’ by the incident.

At one point he became trapped outside a hairdressers called ‘Supercuts’, leading opponents to chant: ‘Vote No for Supercuts, vote No for permanent austerity’.

The irony, of course, is that Red Ed needs Scotland to stay in the Union so that Labour can take power, since Scotland is considerably to the left of England. Based on the coverage and the increasingly apocalyptic predictions, the English Unionists appear to be deeply worried that they are going to lose the Scottish Independence referendum. This is not the statement of confident politicians:

“Scotland will continue to get more money than England if it rejects independence, David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg said in a joint pledge released today ahead of Thursday’s crunch vote.”

Just leave us in charge and we’ll give you more treats! That doesn’t sound desperate at all, does it? And a Scottish Labour MP wrote: “‘Campaign room full of visibly shaken and upset folk who were in St James Centre – truly crappy day for democracy.'”

No, democracy is the will of the people. And it appears that the Scottish people have no desire to have Englishmen or Jews rule over them. This strikes me as perfectly reasonable; I tend to doubt the Israelis are going to elect a Scot anytime soon either.


Sanity prevails

AD will be back on the field on Sunday:

The Vikings gave Adrian Peterson the weekend off for damage control.

But now they’re falling back on due process.

The team just released a statement from owners Zygi Wilf and Mark Wilf saying the All-Pro running back would fully participate in practices and meetings this week and is expected to play Sunday against the Saints.

It appears the NFL owners are beginning to grasp that reacting like Pavlov’s dogs to the Social Justice Warriors ringing a bell is not good for the game or for business. Now let’s see the NFL reinstate Ray Rice.


Announcing Castalia Associates

You may have noticed there is a change to the left sidebar. In the place of the RECOMMENDED books, there is now a selection of books that are self-published by authors acquainted with Castalia House who have made their books available through Castalia’s online store. We are listing these books on the store under the category CASTALIA ASSOCIATES.

We’re pleased to announce the first two Castalia Associates are Chris Kennedy, the bestselling author of the mil-SF series THE THEOGONY, and Christopher G. Nuttall, the bestselling author of ARK ROYAL and the mil-SF series THE EMPIRE’S CORPS. Their books are being sold in the same DRM-free EPUB format that Castalia House books are sold. Additional Castalia Associates will be announced in the weeks to come; please do not contact us to request participation at the moment as we have our hands full with getting our forthcoming works ready for publication.

We’re also very pleased to be able to say that both Chris Kennedy and Christopher G. Nuttall are contributing short stories to the first volume of the Tom Kratman-edited mil-SF anthology series, RIDING THE RED HORSE. And while we’re on the topic of Castalia House, you surely won’t want to miss the Appendix N retrospective that many of us have been anticipating, as Jeffro addresses the Zelazny classic, NINE PRINCES IN AMBER.


National spirit in Sweden

The rise of the Swedish Democrats echos that of the National Front in France, the People’s Party in Switzerland, UKIP in England, and other nationalist, anti-immigrant parties:

“The Sweden Democrats is the only political party that wants to stop immigration,” Anders Sannerstedt, a political scientist at Lund University, told the French news agency AFP. “All the other political parties have a united stance, a generous immigration policy.”

That pro-immigration stance was exemplified by Prime Minister Reinfeldt in an August 16 speech. “I’m now pleading with the Swedish people to have patience, to open your hearts, to see people in high distress whose lives are being threatened,” he said. “Show them that openness, show them tolerance.”

Reinfeldt’s immigration stance clearly cost his Moderate party votes this year. Its share of the vote fell from 30 percent in its successful reelection of 2010 down to just 22 percent this year. In contrast, the anti-immigration Sweden Democrats more than doubled their showing from 2010, becoming the third-largest party after the Social Democrats and the Moderates. A majority of Swedes voted for non-Left parties in Sunday’s election, but the absolute refusal of any of these parties to negotiate with Sweden Democrats dooms them to remain in the opposition.

There is absolutely no use supporting any “conservative” pro-immigration party anywhere in the West. They are all traitors to their nations and there is nothing conservative about supporting immigration; it is literally supporting the replacement of the native people. Notice how immigration is more important to the fake “conservatives” than every other aspect of the right-wing agenda. That’s because they aren’t conservatives, they are globalists in conservative clothing.

And when people are crying about how poor innocent immigrants are being deported en masse, remember who was responsible for the nightmare. Not the people doing the actual ethnic cleansing, but those who made it necessary in the first place. Because the eventual outcome is not only predictable, it is certain whether you think it is desirable or not. After all, where did all of these homogenous nations come from in the first place?

Those who think the short-term triumph of multiculturalism is inevitable because it has been dominant for 40 years should recall the Spanish Reconquista. 781 years of Ummayad rule wasn’t enough to quench the nationalistic spirit in Iberia, and every single Muslim was forcibly ejected from Spain in the end.

It will be no different in the Second Reconquista. Europe belongs to the Europeans.


In-freaking-sane

The UK police are ACTIVELY PROTECTING the Rotherham child abusers:

A damning report released last month detailed how 1,400 children were sexually exploited in the area over a 16-year period. The Times reported that a woman whose case is being investigated by authorities – but has not yet been interviewed – was arrested after tackling a man she says groomed her when she was 15. A witness accused the police of ‘acting like insensitive thugs’, telling the paper: ‘A police van came and six male officers piled out.

‘Two of them dragged her away, handcuffed her, put her against a wall and then shoved her into the back of the van.’

South Yorkshire Police told today how they had been hoping to interview the woman in the weeks before the arrest, after they were told of the historic allegations by another organisation. But they only realised that she was the woman they had been trying to speak to after her arrest, and have now released her on bail.

Every single police officer involved should be fired. Then whipped. And as for the Paki child rapists, it is to England’s eternal shame that any of them are still standing on English soil.

No doubt the UK media will soon be decrying “vigilante justice”, but vigilante justice is considerably better than no justice at all.


Into the blast furnace

The UK’s demographics are illustrating the truth of GK Chesterton’s observations concerning the human disinclination to believe in nothing:

In England’s second city of Birmingham, of 278,623 youngsters, 97,099 were registered as Muslim compared with 93,828 as Christian. The rest were of other faiths such as Hindu or Jewish, or none.

A similar trend has emerged in the cities of Bradford and Leicester, the towns of Luton, in Bedfordshire, and Slough in Berkshire, as well as the London boroughs Newham, Redbridge and Tower Hamlets, where nearly two-thirds of children are Islamic.

Last night experts said more must be done to ensure that society does not become polarised along religious lines.

I think it is fairly obvious that when people are being beheaded, it is a little late for that. To quote Jerry Pournell’s apt observation, there will be war.

Professor Ted Cantle, of the ICoCo Foundation, which promotes community cohesion, said: ‘What we are seeing are several trends running together. There is a long-term decline in support for the established religions, notably Christianity; continuing immigration from the Asian sub-continent; and higher fertility among the Muslim population, which has a considerably lower age profile.

‘There is also deepening segregation exacerbated by the loss of white population from cities and more intensive concentration of black and minority ethnic groups as a result of replacement.

‘This is the real problem, as residential segregation is generally compounded by school and social segregation.

If he thinks segregation is a problem, just try desegregating those communities. Because communities that can’t peacefully segregate will always eventually find another, less palatable means of doing so.

Well done, secular Britain. Out of its desire to weaken Christianity’s societal dominance, it imported Islam. That’s like leaping out of the frying pan and into the blast furnace.
