Why Plexiglass Is So Racist . . .
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to another edition of Radio Renaissance.
And we have another exciting week, as we always do.
And we have our regular guest, Paul Kersey, who is, as usual, brimming with insight.
We'd like to start today with the report on the racial breakdown in who thinks Trump should be impeached.
Let us know what they found.
Well, I've got to tell you, this story was one that took a while to come about because, again, Mr.
Taylor, one of the things you know, since Donald Trump was elected, we heard since day one it was an illegitimate election.
The press has been pushing that Russia, Russia, Russia.
Of course, that whole collusion angle has collapsed, but that hasn't stopped members of the Congressional Black Caucus to continue to go around and say, we need to impeach this individual.
If you listen to any black radio, if you read any black...
Internet sites, this is all they talk about.
Black Twitter is all about how do we get this guy impeached.
And of course, that is going to go a long way in explaining the data we're about to talk about.
And Mr. Taylor, what we found out is that roughly 40% of Americans believe that Donald Trump should be impeached, with 56% opposed.
However, when you break it down by race into subgroups, 72% of blacks in America favor impeaching President Trump, and a majority of Hispanics, 52%, approve of removing Trump from office.
Again, these are spurious claims as the reason, the justification for removing him from office, but the fact remains, you know, you have nearly three-fourths of blacks believe that President Trump should be impeached from office, and more than half of Hispanics Only 31% of whites say he should be impeached.
And one of the things we know from the exit polls is that Donald Trump enjoyed a majority of the white vote.
And that does correlate to the whites who sided with the Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton and those, of course, the...
The 69% of whites who say that, no, of course he shouldn't be impeached.
What are you talking about? This is fascinating data because it shows us, Mr.
Taylor, what life is going to continually digress into being as the rule of law is replaced with the law of minority tribal rule in America.
Yes, I think your analysis is 100% correct.
I would love to ask some of these 72% of blacks or 52% of Hispanics who think that President Trump should be impeached, on what grounds?
What specifically did he do?
I suspect a lot of them would have a very tough time coming up with anything.
They'd probably say, well, he's a racist, or something like that.
That is my suspicion as to how they would talk.
They want him out because they don't like him.
The idea that there has to be a provable case of a high crime or misdemeanor, the procedure whereby the House votes to do it, the Senate decides, I suspect many of these people have no idea how any of that works.
They just want him out, and if there were a way to wave a magic wand and get him out, they'd do it.
And I agree 100% with you.
It is the sign of a complete loss of any sense of due process, proper procedure.
They don't like him, they want him out.
If there's a way to get him out, out.
I think it's as simple as that.
Now, there is another depressing statistic here, and that is that 48% of women I don't know what percentage of white women want him impeached, but then again, I think that shows a lack of respect for procedure, pure emotion, pure tribalism.
This is a very, very bad sign.
Well, that bad sign, luckily, was repudiated yesterday when a black member of the Congressional Black Caucus, Alvin Harris, tried to bring up articles for impeachment.
It was obliterated.
I want to say 58 people voted for it.
The majority of the Congressional Black Caucus voted for it.
The justification that Congressman Harris gave during his speech He actually said it was because President Trump is empowering white supremacists, neo-Nazis, white nationalists.
That is the justification.
And that, Mr. Taylor, is the great consequence regardless of what we're going to find out really happened in Charlottesville.
In the public's eye, what already is established as happening is the end-all be-all of...
No one is going to care, except for us, except for a few other people, of the after effects of the review by the law firm out of Richmond to try and figure out what happened.
But this black congressman's high crime and misdemeanor was...
Encouraging white supremacy?
Correct. This was in one of the articles I read because, again, it's why are they still pushing for this?
What is the justification?
Why remove a man from office who is really doing a lot to actually improve the lives of all Americans?
President Trump's done a very good job in office.
Of course, he has...
This is just so crazy.
It is so crazy because he denounced white supremacy, he denounced white nationalism, the Ku Klux Klan, about as excitedly as anyone possibly could.
But then he failed to make the Unite the Right people, give them sole responsibility for the violence.
That's really all it boils down to.
It's all quite incredible.
But in any case... One of the things that American Renaissance published a very good review, Gregory Hood wrote it, about the report that was released by a law firm in Richmond.
And it simply states quite succinctly, I believe, that...
President Trump's initial response that, hey, both sides are to blame.
Let's backtrack here. He's completely exonerated from those statements because at that point he was excoriated by everyone.
Remember what Marco Rubio said.
Remember that the, I believe, was it all of Congress that voted to denounce the alt-right?
Am I correct in that?
There's no dissenting votes.
No dissenting votes. And some of the tweets that Marco Rubio sent out, we've talked about.
Go back and look at those. And you have to remember, again, that's ancient history.
99% of people are going to walk away from what happened in Charlottesville and never again venture into the darkness of that day.
They're not going to look at this report that sheds a lot of light onto what actually transpired.
And that is...
That was one of the reasons why, Mr.
Taylor, I was so worried about the event to begin with because people have it in their mind.
It's cemented. It is immutable of the evil that transpired that day regardless of what we know happened.
But going back to this Trump impeachment and the justification for why Congressman Alvin Harris even pushed for these articles to be considered, I think that as we move forward, as whites become a minority in states across the country and at some point in our lifetime, In this country as a whole, we're going to see more of this type of stuff come up, especially in states where, say, a Republican governor is elected and a state where there is majority-minority plurality,
and they're like, hey, we don't like this guy.
Let's just do a recall.
Oh, I think that kind of thinking is going to be increasingly widespread.
And more and more whites will be infected by this.
Where there is a standard that is maintained by the majority of whites, when you get a sufficient number of non-whites who openly flout that standard, it makes it more and more difficult even for the wavering whites to support that standard anymore.
Once they see other people getting away with something that is simply in their own interest rather than based on principle, more and more whites will go along with the same thing.
It's like, I think, good sportsmanship.
A good sportsmanship, if blacks start doing this sort of swaggering nonsense and trash talk, whites will pick it up.
It's the same with the honor codes in a place like University of Virginia.
More and more blacks are just flouting the honor code, and so it makes it much more difficult for whites to do that.
Rules that were set up for white populations with a certain level of public trust, once those began to be violated by people for whom they were not built, Then those rules become much more difficult, even for the original white population to abide by.
And I think that your prediction about this is absolutely correct.
Even at the highest levels of government, procedure will increasingly be ignored by people who just don't think in terms of procedure and who think strictly in terms of tribal benefit.
And on the subject of tribal benefit, I think that's a nice move into Black Councilwoman Cindy Bass of Philadelphia.
This is a story that you brought to my attention.
I think it's a very interesting one.
She wants to pass a law to get rid of the use of plexiglass in these little bars and convenience stores is what they are, that are in the dodgy neighborhoods of Philadelphia.
I should point out from a legal point, because I got a letter from the company that actually makes plexiglass that's a trademark.
We should call it from this point on acrylic bulletproof glass.
Unfortunately, that is a trademark name that I did receive a cease and desist letter For using plexiglass, it is what we all know it to be.
It's kind of become synonymous with any type of glass that protects either the property or the store employees from the customers and the patrons of said store.
I see. It's like talking about Xeroxing something.
Exactly. It is a trademark.
It is a trademark. I'm joking.
But in any case, this Councilwoman Cindy Bass, she was quoted in the press as saying,"...no more normalization of receiving food or drink through a prison-like solitary confinement window.
What message does it send our children?
What are we conditioning them for?" Good grief.
Now, as will come as no surprise to most people, the folks who run these rather dangerous, these convenience stores in dangerous locations, turn out to be Asian Americans.
And outside of the city council hall in Philadelphia, where they were debating this bill, there was a demonstration of this mostly Korean and Chinese group, the Asian American Licensed Beverage Association.
And they say, today we are here for bulletproof glass, which is our major concern.
It's our last line of defense for our safety, for our lives.
And they were demonstrators, some of their wives, carrying signs that say, our lives matter.
Now, to me, it is extraordinary.
It's not as though these people are under any legal compulsion to put up these barriers.
They are doing it because that's the way they can protect themselves.
There have been too many incidents of people walking into these places, putting out a gun, Or jumping across the bar and jumping across the counter and assaulting women.
This has happened time after time after time.
And here is a black city councilwoman who has, I'm sure, never been behind the counter in one of these places, never seen the kind of rough trade that these people have to deal with.
This sends a bad message to our children.
Cindy Bass said that it was that plexiglass, that bulletproof acrylic glass, is an indignity to her constituents, to blacks.
And if you read the Philadelphia Inquirer article on this controversy, the Korean...
Shop owners and the employees, they give example after example of co-workers or family members that were murdered, robbed, or shot before the implementation of these barriers.
And as I joke with people, there is no greater We're good to go.
That this Asian American Licensed Beverage Association had so much power and so much clout that when this bill was actually brought up, they tabled the part that would have forced the removal of the plexiglass, of the bulletproof acrylic glass, because their power and their decision to unite to protect their own interests, whether it's their business And the employees, it's powerful.
And their lives do matter.
There are two things going on here.
One is that they are prepared to stand up for their rights, unlike white people.
Correct. And the other thing is, they're not white.
And so the fact that you have a non-white group opposing this really rather emotional thing that somehow sends a bad signal to poor black people and say, well, wait a minute.
No. Our lives matter and we do this to protect ourselves.
That talks.
White people saying the same thing would not, I believe, have had the same effect.
So there are really two things. They're willing to stand up for their interests.
And this reminds me, of course, of what happened during the Los Angeles riots after the Rodney King verdict, when blacks were roaring through South Central LA, who were the only people who stood by their stores, gun in hand, shotgun in hand, and said, look, you try to burn our place down, you're going to get perforated.
It was the Koreans. There are some amazing images and video of Koreans standing in the doorway of the shops that they owned, as you just noted, holding AR-15s.
Or on top of their buildings and with the height advantage looking down upon people who are going to target.
They were prepared to defend their property.
These are a group who have not been denatured, white people have.
They know what their interests are.
They're not afraid to defend them.
I say hats off to these Koreans and these Chinese.
They are behaving exactly the way we should.
There's a documentary on Netflix, it might be Hulu, about the 25th anniversary of the LA riots and all the documentary, all the filmmakers of this documentary, the people who edited this stuff together, all they're doing is showing the news clips and the interviews.
There's no narration.
All you have is...
Day one, day two, day three.
And one of the days when things were really out of hand, they're interviewing the documentary shows some Korean shop owners being interviewed.
And all of a sudden, one of them pulls out what looks like a semi-automatic pistol and starts shooting.
And me being the age that I am, I was very young when the LA riots happened.
So a lot of this was shocking to me to see this footage of how...
1992, right?
1992, the riots happened.
And you're watching... These Korean shop owners being interviewed, how they've been able to protect and maintain order and keep their business from being burned.
There's so many businesses around them being burned.
All of a sudden, one of the guys, they point somewhere and he just pulls out his semi-automatic weapon, his pistol, and starts shooting.
And you're watching the show.
This actually happened in the United States of America.
And you wonder why these businesses who are trying to do, who are trying to Keep some sibilance of order in Philadelphia in these all-black areas where it's a food desert.
No other businesses want to go there.
And if you've ever been to a place like Atlanta or Baltimore, entire liquor stores are behind plexiglass.
You have to go to a lazy Susan, you have to give them the money, tell them what you want, because they have to maintain The safety of their employees that otherwise, if there was no barrier, they couldn't be in business, they couldn't be in operation.
Have you ever been? I guarantee you some of our listeners have been to a fast food restaurant.
By the way, you probably should stop going to fast food because it's cancer.
But my point is, I've actually been to a fast food place in Baltimore, Mr.
Taylor, where you walk into McDonald's.
The actual area of the cashiers are protected by plexiglass because they've had so many robberies at a fast food place where, think about how much money a fast food place probably has.
Very little in the cash register.
But the entire kitchen and where the cashiers take the money is covered in plexiglass.
Well, I must confess I've never seen that in a fast food restaurant.
But something that surprises me about this incident is a Yale sociology professor by the name of Elijah Anderson.
He has lined up behind this coercive bill.
I'll tell you why I'm surprised by his position on this later, but he says that these plexiglass windows are a, quote, symbol of distrust.
He goes on to say, of course, some people are bad, but most people who come to that window are good, and they're not trusted either.
That angers, alienates them.
They know they're civil, honest people.
They're hit with this symbol of distrust, and it works on your psyche in subtle ways.
You know that you're devalued.
Well, wait a minute. Every time I get an attack in New York City, there's a plexiglass barrier.
Do I feel devalued?
Every time I go to a bank, my bank used to have these big barriers, you know, they took them all down, but did I feel devalued?
No. Every time I walk into a government building, I get frisked.
Do I feel devalued?
This is just such nonsense.
People are taking...
Necessary and calculated measures so as to avoid risk.
Now, the reason I'm disappointed in Elijah Anderson is that he is the author of a book that came out in 1990.
It was called Streetwise, Race, Class, and Change in an Urban Community.
And it, to me, was one of the most gritty, realistic accounts of what it's like to be living in the black ghetto.
He was a young professor at that time, and he lived in the Philadelphia ghetto.
At the time, he pretended that it was not Philadelphia, but later on it came out that's where it was.
And he wrote about it with such incredible honesty.
I'm very surprised that he's now taking the sort of wishy-washy, touchy-feely, oh, it makes him feel bad kind of attitude.
There are a couple of things I really remember vividly from this.
He says that the young women, and this is writing in 1990, He says the women want to be married, but, you know, there's really practically no hope of getting married, so they content themselves with having babies.
But the idea of having babies is to have some cute little toddler that you can dress up in the prettiest, most expensive clothes possible, and the prettier and the lighter skinned, the better.
And they trot these little babies around to their friends, and they ooh and they ah, but as soon as they stop being cute toddlers, they get uninterested.
They don't care about them anymore.
And so they get themselves another little cute baby to dress up and exhibit to all their friends.
He described this in just the most brutally honest way.
The other thing he said about the way blacks think about dogs.
He says blacks, when they encounter white, have an absolute advantage.
They know that they have the reputation of being killers and violent.
If they just look the wrong way at a white man, he's going to give them their watch and run away.
He says the only thing that shifts the odds is if the white guy has a dog.
He says blacks are terrified of dogs.
And the only dogs that black people keep are on a chain in the backyard.
They see dogs as nothing more than a kind of weapon.
To the point that, and this stuck in my mind all the way back to 1990 when I read this, he says, for blacks, they see a white person down on his knees hugging a dog and kissing his fur, and for them, this is disgusting!
What? They think, like, down on your knees and kissing a revolver or something.
It makes no sense. In any case, Elijah Anderson wrote a great book.
I'm sure it's still in print.
Streetwise, it's full of very, very straightforward account of what it's like to be poor and black in the ghetto.
So I'm very surprised that he's come out for this, oh, don't hurt their feelings, bill.
Anyway. One of the factors, Mr.
Taylor, that we failed to mention is that Cindy Bass stated that once the plexiglass, once the bulletproof acrylic glass comes down, they should hire security guards.
Now, one of the things we know, the cost of that is just exorbitant for these businesses that are largely working.
Let's face it, these Korean-owned shops are largely dealing with EBT cards.
who come into these stores are using because we're talking about food
deserts. Grocery stores have in our country at this point, grocery stores can
get a lot of money if they move into a and a lot of tax breaks. Think about the
CVS in Baltimore in West Baltimore that was burned down.
All the tax breaks that the city government negotiated to bring this business
into an all-black area that otherwise would be a food desert desert because
guys you know it's really simple you can't make money the amount of
shrinkage the amount of the amount of theft the amount of it's a very hard to
actually find employees who are willing to work let alone be trustworthy. Now I think
back to there was an incident in Atlanta a couple years ago I think it
was an underground Atlanta where this black security guard was showing do you
remember this it was It became sort of a viral video because this black security guard wore a camera on himself and showed how he was trying to deal with blacks who were coming in and stealing stuff at the store.
He became a minor celebrity on the so-called right because here's a black guy who's trying to maintain some law and order.
And it goes back to the whole thing that, hey, police cameras now are racist.
You know, we just live in a society now where plexiglass is considered an indignity, an affront to the morality of blacks.
I mean, how do you parody this?
Well, exactly. You think it can go no further, and it always does.
But what I don't understand is if plexiglass is an insult to the customers, why would armed guards not be an insult to the customers?
Well, what's going on here?
Exactly. But the idea that somehow...
Oh, just higher armed guards.
These people work on very thin margins as you're mentioning.
But for her, that's the obvious solution.
Let them spend more money.
To me, and again, nobody is unnecessarily going to go to the expense of putting in plexiglass.
It's there for a reason.
This idea that you can micromanage how people deal with their work environment is just completely nuts.
But this brings us to yet another story that is completely nuts.
There is no shortage of completely nuts stories.
This was a suit that was filed in the state of California on behalf of school children against the school districts of Los Angeles and Stockton.
And the grounds for this is that children are failing to learn, to read.
And if they fail to learn to read, this is something that the school district is obligated to teach all children to learn to read, and they are going to file suit to make it happen.
And apparently, they talk about one charter school where they couldn't read their social study lessons and had to listen to an audio version.
And apparently in Stockton, there are students who, quote, start crying when asked to read out loud in class.
Now, of course, the school district, I'm very pleased to see, they've come out of their corner swinging on this.
They say, hold on, boys.
We already spend more than $10 billion a year.
On English learners, students from low-income families, foster youths, and look, we are doing everything we possibly can.
But see, this goes back to your analysis, the first story about impeachment.
Here we bring in these third-world populations who create third-world circumstances and conditions in our country and do not perform at the first-world level, and the fault is the system, not the people.
Our society is degenerating in all kinds of ways, and here, as is typical in the United States, you seek a legal solution.
I wonder, you know, if this catches on, it'll be very interesting to see what the outcome of this is, because you know something else I can imagine?
I can imagine a lawsuit brought by, oh, somebody against the city of New York saying, look, black people are not scoring at the same level as white people on all the standardized tests.
This is a failure by the school district and we're going to sue and we're going to require you to remedy that defect in the system.
Well, I mean, just think about Texas.
I remember reading a story last year about Nashville, the school district in Nashville, where there are now 120 languages spoken, where a decade before it was maybe in the teens.
Because Nashville has become one of those cities that the federal government has decided to dump as many refugees and migrants as possible.
It's actually shocking to go to Nashville and seeing the transformation.
But you think about the consequences to not just the taxpayer, but to the overall quality of life.
I mean, $10 billion a year.
I mean, $10 billion.
I mean, these numbers, we become so desensitized to these numbers of these grotesque amounts of money that is being pumped in at the same time that, gosh, if you look at Drudge, The 405 in Los Angeles is on fire right now.
I mean, you think of what an apt metaphor that is for America, looking at just this, you know, here it is.
All along, we were always told, manifest destiny, this is going to be California.
As California goes, so goes the nation.
That's the future. And what Mr.
Taylor just pointed out about New York, you could say the same thing about Atlanta, where a couple years ago there was that horrendously embarrassing scandal when it came to grade inflation.
This has been replicated in districts across the country, in places like Dallas, Kansas City, Chicago.
This is one of the stories that, to me, didn't get enough discussion when they tried to tie teachers' pay to student achievement in Chicago.
The Chicago teachers' union went on strike.
Because they realize what that actually meant.
Well, you know, of course, there are some groups that simply cannot be brought up to the level of other groups.
Now, it would seem to me that if you did a certain kind of race norming on this, if you said, okay, you get money if you can bring blacks up to, say, the 85th percentile, which is about where they achieve, and if you can bring whites up to the 100th percentile, which is about where they achieve, then you might get some sort of reward.
But the idea of somehow making some sort of reward based on the idea of getting blacks to achieve the same level as Asians...
It's nuts! And in their bones, all these teachers understand that.
No wonder they go out on strike on that kind of foolishness.
But anyway, the suit calls for not more money.
They were very careful about specifying that.
They want not a quantum of expense, but a quantum of education.
They don't care how the state brings it about so long as everybody learns how to read, no matter how stupid, no matter how defective, no matter what kind of crazy background they come from.
Everyone's got to learn to read, perhaps in first or second grade, maybe even in kindergarten.
But no, they have to have a welcoming environment for parents to speak a language other than English, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
No, but this is, I can see this coming.
We're going to solve everything by lawsuits, and everyone has to be equal because that's what, I mean, Jefferson said so, right?
Anyway, but yes, moving right along.
Representative John Conyers.
Do you know how long John Conyers has been in the United States Congress?
I believe it was before Coleman Young was even elected mayor of Detroit back in 1973.
I want to say the...
Late 60s? He's been in Congress since 1965.
Wow. Wow. Yes, he's the longest serving congressman.
And as our listeners probably know, he faced allegations of sexual harassment from former employees and he has decided that he's going to resign.
Now, except that one of his relatives who plans to run for the seat says he's not resigning.
His doctor advised him that the rigor of another campaign would be too much for him, just in terms of his health.
What a coincidence! What a coincidence!
All of these allegations of sexual harassment come out.
And, of course, he was one of the beneficiaries of one of these taxpayer-funded settlements.
That's right. $27,000.
You know, he might be listening, or he might hear this, but Mike Cernovich...
Gentleman who wrote Guerrilla Mindset.
He's an independent journalist who's done a lot of great work.
He himself was the gentleman who broke this story.
It was independently verified by another site.
And it is shocking to think that not only was...
They're basically this hush payment of $27,000 in taxpayer-funded settlement to a former staffer.
But we also know that there is this hush fund in the millions of other staffers who have had these type of hush settlements paid for by the U.S. taxpayer.
And I can guarantee you that a disproportionate amount of those probably went to Congressional Black...
CBC individuals. Now this is pure speculation?
It is pure speculation. It is.
But now Conyers, of course, he says, I ain't going to pay that back.
I ain't going to pay that back.
The lawyers cleared it.
Whereas apparently somebody else, Representative Blake Farenthold, a Republican of Texas, $84,000 is paid on his behalf.
To hush up some sexually offended employee.
And he says he's going to pay that back.
Anyway, this is all really quite thoroughly sorted top to bottom.
But you know, I love the fact that Conyers says that he wants his son, John Conyers III, to run for office and replace him.
But you realize this could set up a family feud.
Because his great-nephew, I believe it is, another Conyers, Ian Conyers, 29, he is planning to run for it too.
And of course you know what part of the country these guys represent.
They do represent the Detroit area.
Oh, dear. Oh, dear.
Detroit. We're back to Detroit.
Yes, that's correct. You know, the longevity of these black congressmen is something extraordinary.
And what's the name of that black professor at Vanderbilt who wrote about...or a name is slipping my mind.
Oh, Carol Swain.
Carol Swain. Carol Swain.
One of her first books was about blacks in politics.
And she said that unless a black politician is caught raping babies, he is pretty much assured of re-election after re-election after re-election.
There's a sort of, and she likened it to the kind of tribal chieftain mentality in Africa.
The big man is the big man, and everybody recognizes that.
But that is why you have so many chairmen of committees, because chairmanship goes on.
These black congressmen get returned time after time after time, like this guy, Kanye, is in since 1965, so they run the committees.
Yeah, you think about people like John Lewis, who represents an area of Atlanta in Congress.
It's basically these positions are a form of racial royalty.
That's right. It's a regal position.
Charlie Rangel in New York City.
How long was he in?
Decade after decade.
You know, it's a sinecure.
They're in for life once they get elected.
But anyway, I have a personal story to tell you about John Conyers.
Please do tell. I actually met Congressman Conyers.
This was probably about, I'm guessing it was probably 1974, 1975.
I was working as a journalist at the time.
And I was talking to him, I can't remember what the subject was, but I met him in a sort of a semi-social context.
And I was in the company of a tall and attractive blonde white woman.
And when we walked in, there's Conyers.
Conyers looked her up and down in the most obviously appraising way, and he said to her, Well, hello, sister!
I thought to myself, what a pig.
What a pig this guy is.
I mean, she could have been my wife, but openly, openly making a verbal pass at her right out of the box.
I thought, boy, if this is what he's like, gee.
Well, as we learned from Dr.
Elijah Anderson's book, he realized that you as a white man were impotent in the face of a domineering black man.
That's right. All he has to do is say, hello, sister, and I run the other way and he gets the girl.
But... Man.
So that was my one encounter with John Conyers.
It's interesting to see all these, what, 30 years later, all of this stuff falling into place.
So bye-bye, John Conyers.
Bye-bye. You have a happy retirement.
I'm sure that he will be replaced by yet another Conyers, and so the royal succession will continue.
I had an encounter with the congressman who said that Guam would capsize if the U.S. continued to do the buildup.
I think it was Hank Johnson. Hank Johnson, yes.
So I was at an airport, and I happened to run into him, and I said, you're Congressman Hank Johnson.
He said, well, yes, I am. And I said, sir, I'd like to shake your hand.
I actually agree with you that if we do a buildup, Guam might capsize.
And I said, this matter-of-factly, we have this hilarious photo, and I've got this look on my face.
I did this deliberately as a joke because it was probably about six months after he made those.
Scandalously embarrassing scientific comments about Guam capsizing if we have a U.S. naval build-up that we're...
Look, look, too many troops, too many buildings, you know, for heck's for heck.
You know, it's just a little tiny island.
But I told them... It's sort of like this idea I keep reading that the Flat Earth Society is growing.
I had to walk up to him and just tell him that I still contend you're correct in your assertion.
And how did he reply? He smiled and he goes, well, let's take a picture.
And I've got the picture still and it is hysterical.
Let's just put it that way. He was the one who proposed a picture to celebrate the fact that here's a white guy who agrees that the Guam might capsize.
I had an iPhone in my hand and I thought, hey, let's take this picture.
Immediately when he made the recommendation, I just thought it would be funny because he was sitting there by himself and here's this internet celebrity and he deserves to be told it.
He might be right, actually.
He might be right still.
Well, that took some nerve to walk up and tell him, you know, I'm just as big a fool as you are.
He needed validation.
Yes, I guess he did.
I remember watching the YouTube clip of that.
Well, it was from C-SPAN, I believe.
And there is a naval officer sitting right next to him.
And he's worrying about, well, Admiral, isn't there some fear that it might capsize?
He says something to the effect of, no, just absolute deadpan.
He says, no, we don't anticipate problems of that kind.
It was the perfect answer.
I thought, wow, that guy deserves his admiralship.
He's a boat named after him.
Yes. Wow.
In any case, let's move on to our final story.
It's from Sweden. And here, give us a lowdown on this here.
Well, one of the things that we've seen on the internet is just how terrifying the situation is quickly becoming in Sweden.
A guy I follow on Twitter, you might as well get him, Peter Sweden.
I know I've actually spoken to him before.
He is a... He's actually an expatriate.
His family lives in England because they were homeschooled and they were forced to flee Sweden because it's illegal to do homeschooling there.
And he's been openly talking about the terrifying nature of all these bombs going off all around Sweden, areas of the country that are no-go areas, far beyond what we actually see in France.
It was probably about six months ago that one of the top cops in Sweden came out and said, we've lost control of a lot of these areas.
Now what we're actually seeing is there was a leak within the government.
Again, I think we're going to see a lot more of this in these countries that are beginning to fall to the demographic time bomb going off.
Hopefully we'll see something along the lines in France maybe where you've said many times, we know this, they don't keep track of racial data by crime, by births.
We have no idea. But luckily there are people, there are patriots within these governments who are...
Leaking vital information to understand just how...
As someone who has a lot of Swedish blood, just how terrifying the situation has become.
This is a conquered nation.
Racial egalitarianism has brought this country to its knees.
And when you think about that, there were 168,000 sentences given between the...
May 2004 and January 8th of 2015.
These were rapes, I believe.
These were all various criminal sentences.
Various criminal sentences. Okay. 83,656 of the individuals involved were foreign-born.
Right. Of the 86,000 who got sentences, 45% were foreign-born.
But of the people who got sentences of 9 to 10 years, and that's a long sentence in Sweden.
Especially in Nordic countries, yeah.
Yes. 68.8% were foreign born.
Now, the foreign born population in Sweden these days is over 25%.
Yes, it is. Well, that is a shocking figure to me.
We think of the Nordic countries as this bastion of white beauty and genetics and culture and heritage.
25% are foreign born. And the population of Sweden, correct me if I'm wrong, it's between what?
It's under 10 million, right?
Oh, well under 10 million. I think it's probably under 5 million.
There are not many Swedes.
But in any case, when it comes to rape cases, gang rape cases, 82% of the perps were immigrants.
And as they calculated, that means that immigrants are 18 times more likely to commit gang rape than Swedes.
You know, gang rape.
I mean, rape to me is not that easy a crime to envisage, you know?
It seems to me cooperation is part of the fun.
But gang rape, you know, with your buddies?
I just don't get that.
That really does strike me as sort of a non-white crime.
I suppose white people do commit gang rape, but it's just...
Not an easy crime for me to imagine.
But in any case, yes, 18 times more likely for foreigners to commit gang rape than Swedes.
But the police are now all upset about this leak of the data.
They said that it violates some sort of privacy act in Sweden.
And so they are just as upset about this as anything else.
But this to me, this to me represents a much larger question that you and I have already discussed several times, and that is the desire of the authorities to conceal the actual effects of this non-white influx into Europe.
Well, one of the foreign ministers for Sweden came out and said that they're actually going to censor internet sites that try and break down crime by race.
And matter of fact, we said, this is not going to be tolerated anymore, our country.
There are a number of other nations within Europe, the European Union, that have had similar situations arise where the racial data that's collected on crime, I can think of the Netherlands being one.
There was, a couple years ago, there was some data released about crime, rapes, and it was, again, the indigenous population.
It's docile. It's sort of like in Milwaukee.
Milwaukee puts out the Milwaukee Homicide Review Commission.
Every year, they break down crime, non-fatal shootings, murders.
They try and actually figure out why it happened.
Most damningly, they've found that you can't say it's gang violence.
It's just random violence.
It's not connected to gangs. It's not connected to drugs.
They break down every non-fatal shooting.
What was the rationale behind it?
And when you break down the per capita, the white rate versus the black rate versus the Hispanic rate, they break this all down.
It's damning information.
Without a non-white population in Milwaukee, there would be maybe 10 non-fatal shootings a year, as opposed to the 600 you have now.
There'd be maybe 8 murders a year, as opposed to the 140 murders you have now.
I mean, you and I probably think, a lot of the listeners probably think of Milwaukee.
I believe Happy Days was filmed there, and I think a couple other television shows were filmed there.
It's not like that anymore. It's a 40% black city.
Yeah. That's what these Nordic countries are like now.
It's not to the extent where the Swedish population has been demographically supplanted, but it's well on its way there by the next generation.
Yes, yes. Extraordinary what's happening in Sweden.
People talk about it as being one of the rape capitals of the world.
One of the nations with the highest rates of rape.
I think South Africa has a higher rate.
It does. Of course, when you get into some of these African countries, the statistics are so unreliable, you don't really know what's going on.
But certainly in Western Europe, it's really way right at the top in terms of rape.
And the perpetrators are overwhelmingly non-white.
And for a nation to be passive in the face of assaults on their womenfolk by these strangers, by these foreigners, to me that is yet again an extraordinary testimony to the extent to which we have been denatured.
We are no longer the people we were.
To not rise up in fury about this, and the same thing happened of course in Britain with the sex grooming cases, you just look the other way and pretend it hasn't happened because if you notice You're a racist.
Well, it's extreme impotence.
I mean, I go back to this whole streetwise.
I mean, basically, the Western world is one large ghetto, and whites are trying to find enclaves wherever they can to have a meaningless existence for a couple decades until their children move away.
and then again the encroachment what I call the black undertow. If you live in an
area of the country where there's a say a place like Birmingham, Atlanta, Memphis
where you can keep going out because there aren't any natural
boundaries you can keep creating new suburbs kind of like in northern
Virginia. New suburbs can just pop up and then in a couple decades they go dark
and you can just move away. I mean this is this extreme Racial impotence in the face of the daunting racial realities that our ancestors knew about and they tried to create safeguards to protect us from them.
You know, there are exceptions to this.
I remember the time of the wilding episode in New York City when that lady stockbroker was beaten nearly to a pulp and gang raped.
As it turned out, The people that got convicted for it were not the people who had actually done it.
You remember when Donald Trump got in trouble for taking out full-page ads saying, you know, these guys are killed.
He sent them away. In any case, I was living in California at the time, and I was pretty good friends with a woman who was a firefighter.
She was a tough customer.
She'd done a lot of weightlifting, so she could get in shape to do this.
She was an athlete. She trained.
She loved to shoot. She says, look, what we're going to do, we're going to go to Oakland.
I'm going to be armed.
And I'm going to dress provocatively.
And you jog 50 yards after me and you're armed.
And if any of them come out, we will just shoot them!
I said, well, hold on, you know, that's an admirable sentiment, but that might be a tricky undertaking.
But I must say I applauded that sentiment.
Maybe I shouldn't have. She will go nameless.
But interestingly enough, and this is kind of a sidelight, she decided that women shouldn't be in the fire department after all.
She had trained really hard, and so she passed the requirements, but she said, mixing men and women in firehouses like that, it's just not good.
And I trained like crazy, but I still wasn't as strong as the guys.
They were working out constantly.
It took me longer to figure out all the mechanical stuff, how to maintain the equipment.
So she quit. She stopped being a firefighter.
You've written some articles about Obama's America where you were so upset about the fact that...
They were going to integrate the troops who were going to be doing the fighting when they said we're going to have female combat troops.
I just read the other day that the SAS and Britain is relaxing standards to try and get a few women to become elite members of probably A group of men that are rival, if not are greater than our SEALs.
SAS training is absolutely brutal.
And they want to lower standards for one of the few institutions left in England that actually has some...
A real elite quality.
Exactly. Exactly. Emeritus equality to it.
And it's so emblematic of where we are as a people.
We aren't who we were. No.
And I think the great question that you've...
It's batted around. American Renaissance is batted around all of the contributors.
A lot of great people have dedicated their life to try and figure out how do we connect who we are today with who we were in the past.
It's not about trying to get us to some other level we've never been before.
It's just who we were.
That's right. It's just who we were.
Yes, yes. And that, when you think about it, is really the purpose of American Renaissance.
To wake people up.
This is what is happening to you and your people.
Be who you really once were.
In any case, on that note, we will call it a day for today and I look forward to seeing you again next week.
And as we know, we don't know what the next week's events are, but we know we will have a rich harvest of stories to talk about.
