Irish authorities will go to great lengths to stop anyone “politicizing” horrific crimes by immigrants. In 2023, the boyfriend of murder victim Ashling Murphy made an impact statement in court that was initially reported but later censored from RTÉ press coverage of the trial. The section that was deleted from news stories said: “It just sickens me to the core that someone can come to this country, be fully supported in terms of social housing, social welfare, and free medical care for over 10 years—never hold down a legitimate job, and never once contribute to society in any way shape or form.”

That is just a small preview of how things will be when women come to dominate our institutions. Back in the 1970s, a lot of people thought introducing women into institutions wouldn’t change them, or might make them slightly softer but otherwise the same. That prediction has been proven false. Look at how much the legal profession, journalism, medicine, and journalism have changed now that women are the majority of the younger cohorts. Imagine how much more they’ll change as the remaining men age out.

This is how Gov. Luther Hodges of North Carolina describes the incident in his memoir. His three main points:
Bribery was common at the Chicago Defender—five dollars clipped to a news release, brand new cars for reporters. Burns thought it was dishonest, but no one else had a problem with it. “The practice became established and was accepted by most of the black community. I had no choice but to ignore and pretend I knew little about what I viewed as a kind of bribery.”
Most interviewees had children in school when busing came in. “Our son quit takin’ his lunch because they would steal his lunch or his lunch money, so he just didn't eat.” “When my daughter went there . . . she was afraid to go to the bathroom, to the point that we had to take her to a urologist.” “He would have our son get down and lick his shoes and he would say, ‘Your people have slaved my people, now I'm gonna slave you.’”

I can name them if people want, but just look through back issues of The Lamp, First Things, TAC, CRB, Compact—you’ll see their names.

“On the fourth day, a boy from Oklahoma saw the sharks eat his best friend, and I suppose that was more than his brain could stand. He took his knife, which was about 12 inches long, placed it in his mouth (like Tarzan in the movies), and started chasing sharks. They would stay just far enough ahead of him that he couldn’t touch them. He would go under for long periods at a time, making us wonder whether he would come up. I don’t know how long this went on, but sooner or later, I noticed that he wasn’t around.” —Sherman C. Booth

The cases Bell v. Maryland and Barr v. City of Columbia involved sit-in protests at private lunch counters and hinged on whether the owners’ actions in removing the protesters were unconstitutional under the 14th Amendment as they would have been if it had been gov't property./2

“Was there someone that felt … suppressed? Somebody that did not feel like an individual?”



10. @JuliusKrein's review of Sam Gregg genuinely advanced the debate over “market fundamentalism” and the New Right. The last third of the piece is a sweeping retelling of a century of economic history, which made a lot of pieces fall into place for me: theamericanconservative.com/the-last-gasp-…

They exist to compensate for the power that professionals have over their clients. Wokeness has attacked professional codes in every sphere: banking, medicine, law. /2

Olympic Park, Irvington, New Jersey (1903-1965): “Olympic Park remained segregated until the mid-1950s and Newark’s black community felt unwelcome even when they gained access to the park. By 1965, however, young blacks began to take buses to the park to enjoy daylong excursions. On opening day of 1965 a large group of Newark teenagers, numbering perhaps one thousand, arrived at the park. They expected to pay only ten cents per ride, a tradition on opening day that the park owner had eliminated that year. By the evening many had run out of money as a result. Fearing trouble, park officials tried to close early. Guards ushered the angry teenagers from the park, but there were no buses to take them back to Newark because of the early closing time. The crowds then descended on downtown Irvington, shattering some shop windows and frightening pedestrians…
