Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me, of course, is the absolutely essential, irreplaceable Paul Kersey.
Mr. Kersey, delighted to have you with us.
Mr. Taylor, I'm delighted to be with you on May 21st, 2020, in the year of our Lord.
I hope all of our listeners across this nation and around the world are having a wonderful day as we in America get ready for Memorial Day weekend.
Yes, indeed, and these podcasts are often uploaded on the day they were recorded, but if not, they'll be uploaded on the day after.
And I believe, Mr. Kersey, for all of our listeners all around the world who have been fretting and been tormenting themselves about the fate of illegal immigrants who are not taking part In the COVID handouts sweepstakes this year, I believe that there is relief on the way.
So could you please give our listeners the details and set their worried hearts at ease?
Well, there's relief coming their way if they're in the Pacific Northwest.
The Seattle City Council is calling on Washington State to create a $100 million relief fund for illegal immigrants who did not qualify
for the federal stimulus checks that were issued and signed by
President Trump.
Apparently I heard that people who got these, they got a letter
in the mail, Mr. Taylor, that was in both English and on the
back, it was in Spanish, letting them know that they got their
So yeah, I don't know if that's been reported on that much But so this is just the latest push by you know politicians primarily Democrat politicians elected politicians to give money to give taxpayer money to Those who are in the country illegally so this good Yes, it's something of a remarkable COVID jackpot for them, isn't it?
They show up here, and not only do they break our laws to be here, but then they're going to get checks in the mail.
Boy, oh boy.
Maybe tomorrow it will rain cerveza.
Easy now.
So the City Council passed a resolution Monday.
It won't rain, Cerveza.
It'll be like a pinata popping, actually.
Probably a better metaphor.
But the City Council passed a resolution Monday asking Washington Governor Jay Inslee to create a Washington Worker Relief Fund.
To provide, quote, economic assistance to undocumented Washingtonians during the COVID-19 pandemic.
So, and it was a nine to zero vote in favor of this, this resolution and, and Mayor Ginny Durkan of Seattle was asked to sign the measure.
Durkan said this, quote, Looking out for the most vulnerable in our community is even more critical in times of crisis.
It is all the more important to ensure we are not pushing people further into the shadows.
Well, you know, there was always a possibility that it would push them further south of the border.
But I guess that's out of the question if you are in Seattle.
But aren't there other prospects for COVID sweepstakes for our illegal That's exactly right.
You know, the Seattle City Council is just pressuring the Washington government to do what California has done.
And that is, of course, California has opened up about $75 million for a fund to help roughly 150,000 illegal immigrants in the state.
It's going to give them access to a coronavirus, China virus, whatever you want to call it, COVID-19.
If I'm ICE, what should ICE be doing?
paying them 500 per person and up to 1000 per household.
Now, it's amazing that we're learning that their sign for the money could run out quickly
because the state opened up a website on Monday and there was so much traffic for this website in
California for illegal aliens to get their COVID-19 relief,
the site crashed.
Now, if I'm ICE, what should ICE be doing?
ICE should basically be tracking the ISP of all the people logging on to try and do this.
No, they're not exactly in the shadows.
No, they're not!
If they're lining up with their hands out for that $500 per person.
Oh, dear.
Well, California is a sanctuary state, after all.
California is a sanctuary state, but Washington, D.C., we've got the Democrat-controlled House that just passed a bill last week that would include illegal immigrants in the next round of stimulus checks.
It would allow those who are ineligible for Social Security numbers and who file taxes instead by using an individual taxpayer identification number, an I-10, to receive the checks.
Each person would receive $1,200 stimulus checks and up to $6,000 per household.
Wow, boy, I bet we're going to get people moving out of California straight over to Washington, D.C.
with that kind of check.
Well, that's for everyone in the country.
I mean, this is the next round of stimulus checks they want to pass for the entire country.
Oh, on the federal level?
Exactly, exactly.
So this is the House.
This is the federal government, one of the branches of government.
And it is an astonishing moment where the Democrats continue to put the interests of illegal aliens ahead of those of Americans.
Well, I wonder if Californians can double dip.
I think they can.
I think Washingtonians could double dip as well.
Well, boy, I think I'll renounce my citizenship and I'll be here illegally.
You shouldn't even joke about that, especially if you're going to try and purchase a gun legally, Mr. Taylor.
Well, yes, COVID does bring out certain strange tendencies.
And I believe you'll remember the New York Times and The Guardian both were warning us that when the orders went out to wear masks in public, blacks would hesitate to do so because of a legitimate and righteous fear of being shot down by racist, racial profiling white people.
The idea was, of course, that they got their faces covered.
We benighted white people to assume they're not protecting us from COVID germs, but they're about to commit a crime.
And of course, blacks can't go jogging for the same reason.
You know, they could just be shot down at any moment.
Well, the police in Aurora, California, have arrested a man.
What he did was shoot a Waffle House employee who told him that, in conformance with state regulations, he had to wear a mask.
Well, Kevin Watson now faces charges of attempted first-degree murder.
And I'm sure He very patiently explained to the Waffle House employee that he just could not wear a mask because that would be guaranteed death at the hands of vigilante whites.
But when she was having none of it, what choice did the boy have but to blaze away?
Well, fortunately, his aim was poor, and the employee, whose race is unspecified, was rushed to the hospital and is now recovering at home.
God bless her, and let's hope she makes a full recovery.
But so COVID is really cutting a wide swath through the entire country.
And I understand that you have a story from Memphis for us about some of the budget cuts that have been imposed by the decline in revenues in that city.
Yeah, you know, in Memphis, I think it's about a 65% black city now.
Remember what happened last week when they decided to exhume the bodies of Nathan Bedford Farson's wife?
From that park that was bought by the non-profit sold at, what was that?
Was that last year that that park was sold in the Statue of Liberty?
Yes, for what?
$5,000?
I think it was like $1,000 actually.
It was some egregious amount and just shady business.
And obviously the state of Tennessee didn't want to investigate it, but they should be investigating this story and it is the Memphis Police Department has had to cease their ankle monitoring program because their funds have been decimated by the lack of Revenue coming in for from taxes to actually support these public services, you know We've seen the governor of California threatened to lay off first responders due to this at the same time.
They're giving out 75 million dollars to illegal aliens I think we've seen in New York City the same thing as as Taxes as the tax base and and revenue for this for the city just dries up.
You're gonna start cutting jobs this is just simple economics and and Well, you just cut the fat, of course, and the fat includes ankle monitoring, GPS monitoring for crooks, and as Mayor Bill de Blasio said, in the face of budget cuts, they were going to cut the police, they were going to cut education, they were going to cut sanitation, but, as I recall, they had plenty of money for free meals for Muslims during Ramadan.
That's right, that's right.
Well, this is a pretty scary situation if you live in Shelby County, if you're there in one of the suburbs of Memphis.
Germantown because right now what we're seeing is the uh here's what the uh in the Memphis Police Department issued in a letter that was sent to the criminal court judges within their jurisdiction.
They said that the COVID pandemic has negatively impacted the MPD budget Due to constraints, all GPS devices which were related to the program were deactivated immediately at the beginning of this month on May 1st, 2020.
These devices were used on the likes of accused violent criminals who managed to make bond prior to their criminal cases going to court.
Monitoring served as a safeguard to make sure that these alleged offenders weren't going to places they shouldn't.
Such as to go to the homes or the workplaces of witnesses and victims.
So, you know, these ankle monitors and the staff needed to support and monitor all activity.
Of course, it costs money.
And we're talking about, I think I read somewhere there were reportedly over 6,000.
Yeah, this is in the story.
6,000 alleged offenders adorning said tracking devices as of April 6th.
So there were 6,000 people who had these monitors on their ankles just in Memphis!
Now think about all the other cities across the country where you have situations where you have a significant portion of the population involved with the criminal justice system, and as taxes and revenue streams What happens?
You've got to start cutting programs.
You don't have the budget.
Mr. Kersey, tell me something.
If you were the police department, and you were running out of dough, and you were going to turn off the GPS tracking devices, wouldn't you do it quietly?
Wouldn't you do it without sending out some sort of press release?
I'm astonished that they should do such a thing in public.
I mean, at least make the people wearing the GPS devices think they're still working.
Wouldn't that be a more intelligent way to do things?
You would think so.
Instead, they've done the exact opposite.
Here's a situation, here's one anecdote, one of the individuals who is facing, a guy named Terry Glesson, who's facing two counts of aggravated assault and domestic assault, bodily harm, court Records allege that Glisson had choked his victim during the act.
He was the subject of one of the letters sent to various judges pertaining to this GPS monitoring program ending.
This is what it said, quote, Terry Jefferson Glisson is no longer under GPS supervision,
but will continue to be supervised by the Shelby County Pretrial Services Intensive Unit,
which will include but not limited to OV, phone contact programming, and RDS as court ordered.
But again, his GPS tracking device is turned off!
His ankle monitor!
I mean, how can you track this guy?
You have no idea where he's going!
Well, that's right.
They're going to have to sign a personal bodyguard to every single one of them.
Make sure they don't go where they're supposed to go.
This is particularly great for people who are guilty of domestic violence.
The idea is to keep them away from their victims.
Well, I'm sure some of them make a quick beeline right to the person who they battered the first time, and maybe they will polish that person off this time.
But, you know, when you got to cut the budget, you got to cut the budget.
This is a great quote summing up what you pointed out, what this actually could enable, since the police can no longer monitor these alleged criminals who are awaiting trial.
Judge Chris Croft is a criminal court judge for Shelby County Criminal Court, Division 8, and he said this, based on this on Glisson's device removal. He said, quote,
now we have to worry about the alleged victims, that something may happen to them,
particularly since she's the only witness to his trying to kill her. So, end quote.
So the judge knows what this means. It, it, open season.
You know, you don't have to be a judge to know what this means.
But anyway, yes, the COVID is cutting a wide swath and one of the places it's cutting a wide swath through is the state of California and particularly I have a story about San Francisco.
As it turns out, bums from the entire surrounding region are converging on the city.
Janine Nicholson, who is the first lesbian to be the chief of the San Francisco Fire Department, grumbled in these words.
People are coming from all over the place.
Sacramento, Lake County, Bakersfield.
They're getting released from jail, from other counties, and being told to go to San Francisco.
Yes, these are bums, junkies, and winos being told to San Francisco.
Now, why is that?
It's because what they were told is that if you go to San Francisco, not to wear some flowers in your hair, but you will get free hotel room and pot and booze delivered to your hotel room.
That's what they were told, and it turned out to be true.
You see, these hotel rooms, they were plan B after there was an idea to house the homeless in what used to be the Palace of Fine Arts.
This is a giant imitation Roman bath.
It was built in 1915 for the World Exposition there.
Now that would have been a fitting symbol of the new San Francisco, I think,
to have bums and winos housed in what used to be the Palace of Fine Arts.
The idea, of course, you got to get them off the street, get them socially isolated,
can't have them doing what they usually do, because then the poor dears might come down with COVID-19.
So San Francisco, instead of putting them in the Palace of Fine Arts,
it's spending $200 a night to house these bums Or as currently politically correct, they're called the unhoused.
Apparently homeless now has a bad connotation so they're unhoused.
Domicile deprived.
Yes, yes.
The hotels weren't really keen on having these paranoid schizophrenics and other goofballs urinating in their lobbies but Especially because under San Francisco law, if anybody stays for more than 30 days, they get homeless tenancy rights and then good luck in evicting them.
Meanwhile, these people are not following the very rules that they were supposed to follow and the very reason for which they have been taken off the street.
The whole idea that they're spending $200 a night is to keep them from socially congregating and doing unsanitary things, but they refuse to wash their hands before shooting up.
As Mayor London Breed of San Francisco said, it's been very challenging to get even some of the residents who are part of the shelter system in our hotels to comply with the orders, even to wear masks.
And it seems it's very difficult to keep them from violating social distancing rules.
Now, as far as I know, they are not being segregated by sex.
Men in one hotel, women in another hotel.
So, I imagine some of them don't stay six feet apart.
Now, as you probably know, the problem with bum shelters is you can't get the bums to stay in them.
No matter how comfortable and pleasant these shelters are, off they go.
And it's off they go because they're looking for drugs and alcohol, which they're not allowed to have in the shelters.
And so there goes your whole shelter strategy of keeping them in a place that you want them to stay.
But San Francisco has a uniquely creative way to keep them in their hotels, we think.
And that is to deliver booze, pot, and cigarettes by room service, along with three meals a day.
You see, in San Francisco, you can't smoke in restaurants or bars, that was back when they were open, or in public parks or near open doorways, and smoking in hotels is just about impossible.
Now, San Francisco, thanks to COVID-19 and thanks to this creative way of keeping the disease from spreading amongst the bums, now has thousands of smoking rooms in the city's hotels.
Now, the San Francisco Chronicle was wondering just why it is, I quote from the Chronicle, it is a mystery why the homeless are coming to San Francisco.
Well, it doesn't seem like a mystery to me.
And as it turns out, the bums who are immigrating to San Francisco are even dialing 911 and asking for hotel room.
Yes, as a paramedic.
Quoted in the paper and said, these people are very honest when you talk to them.
They come right out and say, where's my hotel room?
Manifest destiny as a whole new definition, doesn't it?
I'll say.
Now, to me, though, this is really a story all about discrimination.
The mayor and the police chief.
The police chief is an oppressed woman, a marginalized lesbian, and where does she get off being upset about these foreign vagrants coming in?
What's with this homeless nativism?
I just don't understand it.
I think they really need to be taught that not only should they welcome homeless and bums and junkies and winos from all around California, but all around the United States and all around the world.
But there you go.
Now, sweeping from one coast to the next, I believe you had a story about what the New York Times thinks should be a somewhat nuanced approach to enforcing social distancing.
Yeah, you know, the New York Times actually put out an editorial in regards to social distancing.
One of the things we're seeing, and we've talked about a lot on this podcast the past few months, has been the fact that in cities all across the country, major cities, blacks are disproportionately dying.
And the New York Times editorial board has decided to come out against enforcing social distancing rules for non-whites.
Uh, you know, again, this is one of those amazing stories.
This is the headline of this editorial board piece.
It is, uh, social distancing without the police letting members of the community enforce social distancing is the better way.
So I'll just read a couple of the highlights from this editorial that they published on May 18th.
Of the 125 people arrested over offenses that law enforcement officials described as related to the coronavirus pandemic, 113 were Black or Hispanic.
Of the 374 summonses from March 16th to May 5th, a vast majority, 300, were given to Black and Hispanic New Yorkers.
Video of some of the arrests are hard to watch.
In one posted to Facebook last week, a group of some six police officers are seen tackling a black woman in a subway station as her young child looks on.
She's got a baby with her, a bystander shouts.
Police officials told the Daily News the woman had refused to comply when officers directed her to put the mask she was wearing over her nose and mouth.
Now, Mr. Taylor, it's obviously how you correctly wear a mask in public.
To stop the spread of the germs, so they stay within, just on you.
Did she have it covering her ear, perhaps?
I've not seen this video, so I don't know the answer to that.
However, the story would go on.
To note, contrast that with photographs across social media showing crowds of sunseekers packed into parks in wealthy, whiter areas of the city, lounging undisturbed as police officers hand out masks.
Without a significant course correction, the department's role in the pandemic may look more and more like stop and frisk.
The police tactic that led to the harassment of hundreds of thousands of innocent people, most of them Black and Hispanic, while rarely touching white New Yorkers.
Well, I mean, from what you're reading, it sounds as though the enforcement of these rules was, in fact, different on a racial basis.
I don't know if that's true.
I don't know if that's not true.
But is not the conclusion of the New York Times to say, let blacks and Hispanics make the rules themselves and do what they see fit and have the police lay off?
That's exactly right.
Here's how the piece ends.
Aggressive police enforcement of social distancing measures is nearly certain to harm the health and dignity of the city's Black and Hispanic residents.
But not white residents.
Well, white people again.
What was the first social distancing?
White, white.
We've said it here many times.
I mean, again, in these major cities all across the country from Atlanta to Detroit to New York, Boston, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Milwaukee, it is primarily blacks who are dying of COVID-19 and trying to position this as somehow A reaction of the racist health care system just doesn't make any sense when you have to factor in underlying causes of comorbidity in regards to this.
But of course, you can't do that because as long as there's some form of disparate impact, you can blame white people.
And that's what the New York, this editorial is doing.
Here's how it ends.
New York is facing a public health crisis, not a spike in crime. Black and Hispanic New Yorkers
are already suffering disproportionately from the coronavirus. They don't need more policing.
They need more help. Now, Mr. Taylor, I know you've got something you want to say,
but here's the question I pose to you. Doesn't the police enforcing these social distancing mask
rules, doesn't that actually try and help the Black and Hispanic community if Black individuals
and Hispanic individuals are collectively not following the rules.
Wouldn't that stop the suffering that they're disproportionately feeling due to the coronavirus spreading in their communities?
Well, perhaps the New York Times has come to the conclusion that at least black people and Hispanic people are grown-ups and can decide for themselves what sort of distance to keep from each other.
But yes, one would think that if we are concerned about disproportionate suffering from the coronavirus, you would encourage any means to encourage those people to take whatever measures to lessen the blow.
But moving from New York City to Florida, on Sunday, There was a massive memorial block party with 3,000 partiers in Deland, Florida.
That's just north of Orlando.
There's remarkable helicopter footage that shows thousands of people in a park, hundreds of cars parked all around it.
And it was a memorial for Kenya Alexander, a Deland man, a melanin-enhanced, who was murdered in 2008.
Well, the party itself was not illegal, I might point out, because Governor DeSantis has made it clear that people can gather as they wish.
But there were officers on hand to try to control traffic.
And at one point, the officers saw two convicted felons exchanging what turned out to be a loaded gun right in front of their faces.
And after a certain amount of struggle and resistance on the part of the two men, the two were arrested.
Then, two deputies were hit with full cups containing alcoholic drinks.
I'm not sure how the press verified that they were alcoholic.
And then, as the person, one of the people who threw the cups, was taken into custody, another male partier sucker-punched one of the deputies.
Another deputy and a Deland PD officer were hit with bar stools, mason jars, by other members of the crowd, glass bottles were thrown at patrol vehicles, the usual sort of thing that you can expect when you have thousands of melanin-enhanced and melanin-empowered partygoers.
And overall, as it turns out, deputies conducted 12 traffic stops, issued five citations, towed five vehicles, recovered two firearms, a certain quantity of narcotics, $3,840 in cash, made seven arrests, tasered one man, and there was a shooting, but not by the police.
This is a 34-year-old Orlando man who was attended—he was hospitalized later for gunshot wound to the foot.
Not self-inflicted, we are led to believe.
Now, when you hear about these people who throw barstools at arresting officers, you always wonder about how blacks claim that they could be cut down at any time by vicious, vicious white police officers.
It seems to me that this is a form of almost suicide by cop.
Assaulting armed police officers as they're doing their duty in a crowd of thousands of blacks.
I suspect, I'm just reading this into the way this article is written, that these police officers showed remarkable restraint.
No shots fired.
They did have to taser a guy, but I suspect it was a very disconcerting experience for these officers.
Aside from the fact that here was an example of, once again, certainly not social distancing, and once again the kinds of things that happen when our melanin-enhanced fellow citizens get together in large numbers, I was curious about the nature of this gathering.
Now, Mr. Kersey, I know you love me and admire me almost as much as I love you and admire you, but 12 years after I'm dead, do you think there will ever be 3,000 people gathered at a party, a memorial party, for Jared Taylor, as was the case for this young man, Kenya Alexander, who died at age 20?
Do you think there could be such a thing?
I don't mean to speak ill of the dead since we're speaking of a hypothetical 12 years in the future, but unless certain things change, I must say I do apologize, but I don't think so.
I don't think that's going to happen.
I don't think it's going to happen.
I don't think it's going to happen.
So that made me curious about Kenya Alexander.
And so I did a little snooping on the internet about Kenya Roshan Alexander, known as Big Daddy.
And I found this notice of the funeral.
The Homegoing Service for Kenya Roshan Alexander Big Daddy, age 22, who stepped into eternity on Saturday, September 6, will be 1 p.m.
Saturday, September 13.
It was the Homegoing Service for He Who Stepped Into Eternity.
And I go on to find in this notice of his service, prophetess Angela Dallas Johnson of Unity of God's Manor Ministries, Inc., We'll deliver the main eulogy.
Now apparently, Kenya was a dedicated employee of Sherry's Kitchen and Buffet and was, and I quote from this notice, always a fashion statement.
Then there's a long list, listing by name of the surviving aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, great aunts, great uncles, and one son, Kianta Alexander, but no mention of a wife.
But then I go on to quote, he also left behind what the notice calls a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and other loving relatives and friends.
So, he was a well-beloved fellow.
And what exactly happened to him?
This too, it's really hard to get to the bottom of these things, but Kenya Alexander was found sitting in a pool of blood in the 800 block of Valleydale Avenue at about 2.20 p.m.
Friday.
That was back in September 2008.
Neighbors reported hearing three gunshots and seeing a white sport utility vehicle speed from the area.
Search as I might, I can't find very much about this, but I did discover that his killer by the name of Monquise Green That is apparently a male and not a female name, is to this day a guest of the state of Florida.
But Kenya Alexander sounds like one hell of a guy, and it makes it all the more a pity that this large-scale memorial marking the 12th anniversary of his death was marred by taserings, shootings, and assaults on cops.
Now, I believe you had a Nashville story for us.
Yeah, you know, a real quick thought on that.
You know, we talked about Pensacola not that long ago and some of the big, I think it was around Easter, where there was a massive block party on the beach in Pensacola that took hours for cops to break up.
And I remember there was a quote from one of the black guys who, it was a black Beach party.
And they're like, hey, we ain't afraid of no coronavirus.
We can't see it.
We don't, we don't know what we're worried about.
And you know, this, this kind of stuff has happened all across the country.
And everybody is so, law enforcement is so afraid to be in the next Darren Wilson, you know, of getting Darren Wilson, you know, that we are in a situation where in Atlanta this past weekend, there was massive drag racing going on, illegal drag racing.
And because it was disproportionately blacks who were doing it, instead of the city enforcing rules and the law, Mr. Taylor, they decided to create an area where you can actually do drag racing in the future, if you want to, on the weekends.
Because we can't have law and order and concepts and some structure in place to stop this kind of stuff because, gosh, disparate impact disproportionately impacts blacks.
I wonder if white people would be welcome at this specially designated drag strip, but that'll be a test case, and I'm sure the courts will have nothing to say about it.
Well, you asked about this Nashville story.
Let me preface this by pointing out what happened in Michigan a couple weeks ago when we had the so-called militia, people showing up with Confederate flags, and I think you pointed out that they tried to say there were nooses.
Wait, wait, wait.
You know, so far as I could tell, there was one Confederate flag, but that always multiplies into the plural when you find outraged journalists describing a situation like that.
But anyway.
Exactly, exactly.
And then all sorts of other You know, I think there were swastikas on poster boards because they were trying to compare the tyrannical actions of the governor of Michigan to that of the totalitarianism that was in Nazi Germany.
Well, there was no violence.
People had guns.
White people had guns.
That scared everybody.
Oh my gosh, how dare these white people show up with masks and semi-automatic weapons.
They're going to overthrow the state.
Well, no, that didn't happen.
They were just protesting the shutdown.
However, we do have a situation in Nashville where a black guy He was angry about the coronavirus closure.
He attacked two white people, Kevin Craft and his wife, Leanne Craft, 55 and 50 respectively, with a machete, stabbing them multiple times.
Apparently it was a brutal crime scene.
So far, the Crafts are still hanging in there.
I believe Kevin Kraft is in critical condition still in ICU.
His wife is doing much better, but they were attacked by a black guy, Kelvin Edwards.
He took the machete from his bin at the storage facility and continued striking the couple even after they were bleeding on the floor, police said.
The victims were transported to a hospital there in Nashville after the officers who responded to the scene used multiple tourniquets to control their bleeding.
I guess you can use a maximum of four tourniquets.
After all, we have two arms and two legs, but sorry to interrupt.
No, it's okay.
So, the initial portion of the story says that he was angry about shutdowns that were taking place during the coronavirus.
Apparently, Kelvin is a homeless individual in Nashville who has yet to hear about the situation the government of San Francisco is offering, as he pointed out, because he can easily head out west and utilize that 21st century manifest destiny for booze, cigarettes, drugs, and a nice hotel stay.
But he was upset because there were a lot of places that were shut down and his inability to get into a rescue mission.
It's an organization that serves homeless people there in Nashville and it's a bad situation because here's... Oh, go ahead.
Well, Mr. Kersey, if he was upset that he couldn't get into a shelter, after having nearly killed these two white people, he will have a roof over his head and he'll have three hot meals a day.
You know, that's good.
That's a good point.
Unless they have one of these no-bond deals, a revolving door.
I hope that's not the case.
But a number of astonishing criminals are let out, even if they have no bond, because that's what New York State decided to do.
But in any case, I suspect he is a guest of the city of Nashville.
I hope so.
This guy had a prior felony vandalism conviction in 2017.
He was also convicted for assault after spitting on two Davidson County Sheriff's deputies while in jail.
So he was arrested with two counts of attempted murder for the attack that happened this past Sunday there in Nashville.
Once again, though, it's a story that doesn't fit the narrative.
We're told that In primarily red states or in areas that are controlled by Democrats like we saw in Michigan and the capital city of Michigan, Lansing, I guess.
Is that the capital of Michigan?
Why am I blinking in the capital of Michigan?
Yes, it's Lansing.
I believe it's Lansing.
I think it is too.
But we've seen and the media narrative has been that white people are angry all across the country and they're gonna do something about it and they're gonna protest and You know, you've had beaches cleared.
You've had people arrested in Dallas for not complying with the orders by opening their salon because they want to make sure that their workers can get paid and feed their families.
And the only violence we've seen has been this black guy stabbing two white people.
Well, you know, the pity is that white people are swaggering around with their AR-15s on the grounds of the capital, the Michigan capital in Lansing.
I wish that this black couple had been armed.
We show up with weapons in all the wrong places, it seems to me.
Well, the white couple, you mean?
Yes, yes.
I wish the white couple had been armed.
That might have had a different and happier ending to this terrible story.
But moving on to Wikipedia of all places.
Larry Sanger is one of the founders of Wikipedia and on May 14th he wrote a story in his own blog in which he explained that although he's no longer involved with Wikipedia, his co-founder Jimmy Wales Still is.
And Jimmy Wales is a far-left activist.
As Mr. Sanger wrote, Wikipedia's NPOV is dead.
NPOV stands for Neutral Point of View.
That's official policy at Wikipedia.
You know, all the people who write the articles are told, no, no, no, got to be neutral, don't take sides.
And Larry Sanger specifically pointed to the entries for former President Barack Obama and current President Donald Trump as examples.
He says the Barack Obama example completely fails to mention many of the well-known scandals.
Benghazi, the IRS, phone records scandal, Fast and Furious, Solyndra, Hillary Clinton email server, and of course the developing Obamagate story.
All of this is as if it never occurred.
In short, as he put it, The article is almost a total whitewash.
And then, Larry Sanger points out that the entry for President Trump is, on the other hand, in his words, unrelentingly negative.
Very easy to understand.
Very easy to imagine.
He goes on to write, the LGBT adoption article includes talking points in favor of LGBT adoption rights, but omits any arguments against.
He goes on to talk about the question of drug legalization.
Which in Wikipedia is called drug liberalization, has only a little information about any potential hazards of drug legalization policies.
It mostly serves as a brief for legalization.
And then, as Mr. Sanger approaches subjects of somewhat greater interest to us, scientific articles, he said, are filled with liberal bias and, quote, unscientific views.
And I'll quote again, when the establishment, or maybe just the establishment left, is unified on a certain view of a scientific controversy, then that is the view that is taken for granted.
And often aggressively asserted by Wikipedia.
Now, he didn't go into the articles that are written about race, about people such as your servant, the editor of American Renaissance, who is described in the most straightforward terms.
The very first sentence of my Wikipedia entry is, Jared Taylor is a white supremacist.
There you got it.
That's Not what I would consider a neutral point of view.
That's expressing a certain point of view.
In any case, as Mr. Sanger says, it's time for Wikipedia to come clean and admit that it has abandoned NPOV, i.e.
neutrality.
However he admits that, quote, Sanger admits that, quote, Wikipedians are unlikely to concede any such thing.
They live in a fantasy world of their own making.
And Mr. Sanger now goes on to propose an entirely new and independent decentralized encyclopedia network called the Encyclosphere.
Now, I snooped around on the internet and apparently it is not yet in operation, but you can sign up and get information updates about it.
Alas, my suspicion is that a Johnny Come Lately is never, ever going to achieve the size of Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is so large, so many people are contributing to it, and there is so much information.
If you're talking about historical subjects, often there's an awful lot of information.
I think it would be very, very difficult, even with the help of one of the co-founders of Wikipedia to come up with a viable competitor.
Alas, a lack.
But, at least, it is encouraging to find that some of the people who were there at the creation realized this disturbing turn that Wikipedia has taken.
You know, he's got to be careful not to get cancelled in this cancel culture that we know.
That was a very brave and insightful look at the woke world we all live in.
That's right, and it's gratifying when voices come from any direction to point out just how biased the air is that we are currently breathing.
Now, there's another interesting biased story having to do with Harvard Law professor Elizabeth Bartholet.
We talked about her on a previous podcast.
She caused a stir in April by calling essentially for the near total ban on homeschooling.
The reason for that, of course, is that if children are left in the hands of their parents, there's no telling what sort of bigotry might be shoved down their poor, ignorant, unresisting throats.
Well, she gave a May 15 interview to the Harvard Gazette, in which she particularly took aim at Christians.
She said conservative Christians wanted the chance to bring their children up with their values and belief systems and saw homeschooling as a way to escape from the secular education in public schools.
Fancy that!
They wanted their children to share their own beliefs.
She goes on to say, Children are simply not learning basic academic skills, or learning about the most basic democratic values of our society, or getting the kind of exposure to alternative views that enables them to exercise meaningful choice about their future lives.
Many homeschooling parents are extreme ideologues," she said.
Now, I don't believe there's any suggestion on her part that a single public school teacher might be an extreme ideologue.
Of course not.
But then she goes on to say that children may not have the chance to choose for themselves whether to exit these ideological communities.
Society may not have the chance to teach them values important to larger communities such as tolerance, Of other people's views and values.
Now, you know, this is so typical.
The left always claims to be tolerating other people's views and values.
But if you're a Christian, and you want your child to be a Christian, and you homeschool, that, oh my God, you can't be tolerant of other people's views anymore than can you?
She says some people among these homeschoolers also believe black people are inferior to white people.
Now how does she know?
Has she talked to them?
What does she say?
How did she find out about this?
But my question about this homeschooling and religion is, what if a Muslim were to homeschool?
Might some of them be extreme ideologues?
Probably not.
There are Muslim private schools, after all.
Are some of them extreme ideologues?
Oh, no, no, no.
The only religion, the only one that Professor Elizabeth Bartlett seems to be worried about is Christianity.
Dear me.
Did she see a curriculum somewhere where white identity and if we do nothing are required reading or something?
I don't know where she gets her information, but she's got it all figured out.
And this is so typical of the left, especially the Ivy League East Coast, West Coast left.
They know better.
They know better than you and me.
They know better than the parents of their children.
They are the ones who have seen the light, who are the fonts of wisdom, and if the education of children is to be left in the hands of anyone other than people like themselves, then democratic values are subverted.
And the kinds of life skills we must have to live in this wonderful, diverse society are not being taught.
Oh boy, oh boy.
Just the arrogance of it all.
I mean, does she have any idea just how arrogant she's being?
I'm sure she doesn't, and I'm sure that the Harvard Gazette interviewer, as I say, there's an interview in the Harvard Gazette, was fawning and admiring too.
But anyway, well, Elizabeth Bartholet.
There are people who think that they, more than you, know better how to rear their own children.
I think I saw a stat, Mr. Taylor, that something like 40% of parents across the country during this coronavirus, China virus lockdown, they're having second thoughts about even sending their kids back to school.
And they have no problem with the concept of homeschooling.
And I think this is scaring the education establishment significantly.
You know, I gather that a lot of families are enjoying the time that they spend together.
This is a remarkable opportunity not to have to drive your 12-year-old daughter to harp lessons or your 16-year-old boy to soccer practice.
And people are really enjoying being at home.
I'm delighted to hear that.
And if that results in more homeschooling, so much the better.
But I have yet another story here for us.
This is a somewhat gruesome one with a bit of a moral at the end.
This is from Houston, Texas.
An elderly woman, a white woman, was fatally stabbed in a Walgreens parking lot by a career criminal who was out on bond.
Rosalie Cook was her name, a widow.
She lived on her own independently and she just picked up a prescription at a Walgreens when Randy Lewis, 38, Melanin supercharged.
Approached her in the parking lot.
No polite chit-chat to know how's the weather.
He just walked up to her and stabbed her in the chest.
Killed her.
Rifled through her stuff and tried to steal her car.
All this in broad daylight.
Well, a responding officer arrived shortly after the stabbing and ordered Lewis out of The car.
And when Mr. Lewis rushed the officer with his knife, he was shot twice, fatally.
So, that's the facts of the matter as they stand, as far as I know them, but just a little cherry on the top of this particular cocktail is the fact that he had more than 67 arrests in his 38 years.
More than 67 arrests!
He was out of jail on not just one public reconnaissance bond, but two when he committed this crime.
You wonder, how does any civilized state permit this kind of thing?
But that's what happens.
It seems to me that it should be impossible by the age of 38 to accumulate 67 arrests and still be walking around.
You'd think so.
Yes, but that's Houston, Texas for you these days.
Um, let's see.
Moving on to California.
There's an exciting story that has to do with a representative, Katie Hill.
I don't know if you remember her.
I do.
She resigned last year under quite exciting circumstances.
She is a woman who announced when she was in high school that she was bisexual.
Well, this did not stop her from marrying But while she was marrying, as it turned out, she and her hubby posted naked photographs of Katie Hill online under a thread called, and you'll have to pardon my Swahili, Would You Fuck My Wife?
and another thread called Wife Sharing.
And then when she got elected to Congress, it turns out she spread herself very thin among campaign aides, house staffers, some male, some female.
She's the poster child of the new America that they want to create where families are inconsequential and you can have polyamorous relationships.
Don't you think she's a perfect Democrat?
Don't you think she's a perfect role model for the youth of Southern California?
She's the poster child of the new America that they want to create where families are
inconsequential and you can have polyamorous relationships, you can do whatever you want
to sexually.
Liberation.
That's right.
Everything goes, anything goes.
I just don't see why she didn't hold her head high and said, look, I was elected to Congress, that's how I'm going to stay.
But she resigned.
So there was a runoff election.
And so listeners will eventually find out why I'm bringing up Katie Hill under these circumstances.
There was a runoff election to fill her seat and A Republican won.
She was a Democrat, by the way.
And Mike Garcia, a former military pilot and newcomer to Republican electoral politics, defeated a Democratic opponent in this special election.
This is in Southern California, mind you.
And now the two candidates will meet again in November after this special election term, this abbreviated term is Through.
But this victory is the first time since 1998, that is the first time in 22 years, that a Republican has flipped a Democrat-held seat in California.
Remarkable.
Now, the New York Times took notice of this, and let me quote from a recent article.
House Republicans are taking a cue from the Democratic recruiting playbook, eschewing the kind of candidates they turned to in decades past.
White.
Male.
Can't have any of them anymore.
Now, the Times goes on to quote Corey Bliss, a top Republican strategist who helped lead the party's failed 2018 effort to protect the House.
That's the way the Times puts it.
And this is what Mr. Bliss has to say.
We as a party learned the hard way that in today's world we need candidates other than boring old white people.
Well, gosh, aren't there any exciting old white people out there?
I guess that's just inconceivable, huh?
Then he goes on to say, we need candidates with compelling biographies, compelling messaging, and candidates that reflect the voters who offer a better perspective on the issues of the day.
If you're old, boring, and white, or I suspect if you're just plain white, you can't offer a better perspective on the issues of the day.
Now, as the New York Times points out, the GOP is, quote, suffering from a glaring diversity problem.
This new Republican congressman, Hispanic Mr. Garcia, who, by the way, looks awfully white to me.
Have you seen a picture of his family?
Have you seen a picture of his wife and his kids?
No, I have not.
Take a look at it.
His wife, blonde hair, his kids.
And as you know, he looks like a white guy.
Even his fighter pilot pictures that he has, that he used so significantly during his campaign.
He's just a white guy.
He's got a crew cut.
He's a white guy.
He sure looks like a white guy to me.
In any case, Mr. Garcia's swearing in.
I'm still quoting the Times.
Brought the number of House Republicans of color to 11, nudging it to 6%.
6% of the Republicans are persons of color.
Now, and this number quite surprised me.
The Times reports that 45% of House Democrats are racial minorities.
Now, if 45% of the Democrats are racial minorities and 6% of the Republicans are minorities, that means, surely, that Congress is more than 50% non-white.
I mean, statistically, that's an inevitability.
But it strikes me as quite entertaining that the only time that the New York Times can say anything good about the GOP is when they behave like Democrats.
That's really the only way you can do that.
They want the Republicans basically to be indistinguishable from the Democrats.
But no one, I think, has ever set out a rule for the New York Times that it be NPOV, right?
No neutral point of view with the New York Times.
No, we finished that long ago.
But now, don't you have a story for us from the Netherlands as we leap across the Atlantic?
Yeah, let's go global.
So, the Netherlands, we've got a situation now where the administrative board of a mosque in Amsterdam has a simple answer to those of their neighbors who are complaining about their calls to prayer being too loud.
Get used to it.
Oof, now this is in the Netherlands, and they're broadcasting the muezzins' call to prayer.
Yes, the residents of the area surrounding the Taiba Mosque, which is near one of the major metro stations in the Zuidosch district.
I'm probably not pronouncing that correctly.
Don't hold that one against me!
They've been complaining that it's daily call to prayers are excessively loud.
Islamic law allows Muslim prayer, as we all know, five times per day, and the mosque has been broadcasting all five daily on its exterior loudspeakers to mark the holy month of Ramadan.
Which began on April 23rd.
Point of fact, Mr. Taylor, I don't think we ever talked about this, but in Minneapolis, they are, for the first time in that city's illustrious history, doing a call to prayers as well.
As the Muslim population, primarily Somali, Somalis, grows to such a point where they have mosques on every corner, like a 7-Eleven.
You know, for reasons I won't get into, Mr. Kersey, I spent several weeks in a place called Shah Alam, and that was in Malaysia.
Malaysia is a Muslim country.
And they had a very loud broadcasting of the call to prayer five times a day, as is happening now in the Netherlands and in Minnesota, as you explained.
But when you think about it, If you have five calls to prayer, they spread them out over the day, and they start the first one pretty doggone early.
My recollection is about 5.30 or 6 in the morning when I was blasted out of bed by this call to prayer.
And so, unless you are a miserable, reprobate kufir, or reprobate and non-believer, and you sleep with earplugs, you are going to be called to prayer, like it or not.
So, that's what's going on in the Netherlands these days.
That is what's going on in the new and improved diverse Netherlands, where we have a situation that the administrative board confirmed that they had installed the new loudspeaker system to broadcast the calls prior to Ramadan.
They said that the calls happened five times a day as a result of the ongoing coronavirus lockdown, which has made it impossible for worshippers to come into the mosque for prayer.
Quote, the volume with which this happens is so loud they can be heard throughout the neighborhood and even the surrounding areas.
End quote.
This came from one of the local residents who complained anonymously to one of the local TV stations.
The police confirmed that they've received many complaints about the loudness of its calls.
But the Mosque Administrative Board has rejected the accusation that they're excessively loud, and they've said that the call's volume had been reduced already in response, and that they could possibly lower it no further.
Well, there you go.
There you go.
It's the name of the religion, Islam, after all, is submission.
So, all you infidels, submit.
Again, these mosques are nothing more than a forward operating base for the advancement of Islam, as you said.
And to finish off this story with that quote from the mosque's board, The neighborhood has to get used to the sound.
Just as the people of Constantinople, when it became Istanbul, got used to seeing Saint Sophia turned into a mosque.
They got used to it.
Well, moving on to Great Britain.
The British government has put together a detailed report on the sex-grooming gangs.
It is a paper on, quote, the nature of group-based child sexual exploitation, including the characteristics of offenders, victims, and the context in which these crimes are committed.
Sounds pretty interesting.
Well, once this paper was put together, the British government refused to make it public.
Why was that?
Well, in response to a request from The Independent, that is to say, the British newspaper, they filed a Freedom of Information request.
They have them in Britain as well.
The Home Office said, That they had applied a public interest test, but the information was exempt from a FOIA act because it could be used for government policy and included operational sensitive information from police and that releasing the paper would not be in the public interest.
This was back in February.
They didn't want the public to know these characteristics of offenders and victims.
As the letter explained, the information could be misleading if made public and used out of contact.
Could be misleading.
The truth can be misleading.
Yes.
Well, this response sparked a petition to the government that had received almost 126,000 signatures.
People wanted the full release of this document.
And finally, On Tuesday of this week, the Home Office announced, yes, it would.
It was going to release this information.
And as it turns out, the new Home Secretary, Preeti Patel, P-R-I-T-I, not P-R-E-T-T-Y.
It's a great English name.
Yes, Preeti Patel.
She says, victims of these sickening child sex abuse groups have told me how they were let down by the state in the name of political correctness.
What happened to these children remains one of the biggest stains on our country's conscience.
Well, good for her.
Good for Preeti.
As it turns out, she's Indian and most of the groomers are Pakistanis, so she may be a little bit less nervous than white people about releasing the tails.
But that is the direction which you're heading.
This stuff is finally going to come out.
Now, I believe we have come to the end of our time.
And so, we didn't get around to a reader comment and a reader question that we're going to talk about today, so I think next time we'll make that our number one item.
Is that a deal, Mr. Kersey?
I am in complete agreement, but more importantly, I am in agreement with the fact that we need to make sure we're getting mail from you and being able to stay in touch, that you're part of the email list so you get notification of all new podcast videos, fantastic writings that go on the MRen.com site.
So, I encourage you to get in touch with us.
BecauseWeLiveHere at ProtonMail.com.
Once again, that email, all one word, BecauseWeLiveHere at ProtonMail.com.
Or, you can contact us at Amran.com, click on the contact us page, and then give us your information.
So, for Jared Taylor, this has been Paul Kersey, wishing you and your family a fantastic Memorial Day weekend.
We'll see you next week.
