			<title>Just Tell the Silencers, "NO!"</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5066</link>
			<description><font size="2"><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>Regarding Press Release: ADL Attacks Freedom of Speech by &quot;Shooting the Messenger.&quot; <br /></strong> <br />One of the most interesting aspects of the <a href="/story.php?id=5063">ADL attack</a> on an AM radio program producer in western Tennessee is how it was just name-calling from start to finish. The diverse white American peoples are losing their awe of the labeling that ADL engages in, and the ADL labels are losing their power to influence us. We have seen so much of ADL's name-calling that the words have ceased to sting.<br /> <br />But look at the names hurled at or around an innocent and intelligent broadcaster: white supremacist, anti-Semite, neo-Nazi, Holocaust denier, conspiracy theorist, anti-immigrant leaders, racist groups, and extremist views. Apparently even the heroic Colonel Charles Lindbergh came in for a verbal thrashing by the ADL, too. There's no resting in peace for the enemies list at ADL headquarters.<br /> <br />(As a side note, creating an order of honor named for Lindbergh is an excellent idea.)<br /> <br />On our web site, we explore the phenomenon of name-calling because the act of naming the other is the building block for the act of slurring, and once a group like ADL moves into that area its motives can be analyzed.</font></font> </description>

			<title>Joe Horn for Border Patrol Director!</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5065</link>
			<description><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><strong>One for the good guys</strong></font></p><p><font face="Verdana" size="2"><a href="http://www.thepoliticalcesspool.org/jamesedwards/2008/07/02/joe-horn-for-border-patroldirector/">by James Edwards</a></font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">You probably heard about Joe Horn by now, but in case you haven’t, here’s the scoop. Joe’s a 62 year old retiree who lives in Pasadena, Texas, near Houston. Last fall he called 911 late at night to report that two black guys were robbing his neighbor’s house. The neighbor wasn’t home, and Joe told the 911 dispatcher he was gonna go out and shoot the two robbers. On the 911 call, you can hear him tell them “Move and you’re dead!”. Well, they kept moving, but not for long. Joe shot both of them, killing them. It turned out they weren’t American blacks, but two black illegal aliens from Colombia, one of whom had been deported for cocaine charges years ago.</font></p></description>

			<description><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><strong>Police are investigating the possibility the stabbing to death of 16-year-old Ben Kinsella was racially motivated.</strong></font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Ben was set upon by a gang of black youths at 2am Sunday morning, stabbed several times and died shortly after.</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><strong>The attack</strong></font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Out with friends celebrating the end of the GCSE's, Ben went to Shillibeers bar near Caledonian Road tube station, although it was over 18s he got in.</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">An argument ensued when several youths didn't and were shouting for others to get them inside.

			<title>Press Release: ADL Attacks Freedom of Speech by "Shooting the Messenger."</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5063</link>
			<description><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"><strong>Moneyed bigots smear European Americans.</strong></font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">James Edwards wonders how his weekly program, broadcast on Sunday afternoon from an old-fashioned AM radio station in West Tennessee, could provoke the wrath of the Anti-Defamation League.  Edwards, youthful host of &quot;The Political Cesspool&quot; show, never expected to be labeled a &quot;white supremacist&quot; and the star of hate radio because of a fifteen-minute interview with Pat Buchanan.  But then, the powerful Jewish lobby group avoids polite language when profiling perceived enemies like Edwards and Buchanan. The words &quot;racist&quot;, &quot;extremist&quot;, &quot;terrorism&quot;, and &quot;hate&quot; pop up all over the ADL website like toadstools. <br /> <br />&quot;I am amazed that an organization that has twisted the words 'Merry Christmas' into hate speech can accuse anyone of bigotry,&quot; said Edwards, &quot;the ADL has demanded the removal of Nativity scenes from public property, and dictates what public schools can display during the Christmas season, but I am smeared as a vendor of hate because I interview people the ADL hates.  I pray for them, I really do.&quot;<br /></font> <br /></p></description>

			<title>Action Alert: Marriage Protection Amendment</title>

This constitutional amendment would keep liberal activist judges from forcing homosexual marriage on every American. <br />This constitutional amendment simply states: &quot;Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution, nor the constitution of any State, shall be construed to require that marriage or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon any union other than the union of a man and a woman.&quot;</font></font></p><p /></description>

			<title>Genetic Voting?</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5060</link>
			<description><p><font size="2"><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><strong>Heading to the polls on Nov. 4? If so, your genes may be driving you there, a new study suggests.<br /></strong> <br />In fact, as much as 50 percent of whether you vote or not may be genetically determined, says a team at the University of California, San Diego. Genes may even be more important to your tendency to cast a ballot than family political history.</font></font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">&quot;Both nature and nurture play a role in voting,&quot; said lead author James H. Fowler, an associate professor of political science. &quot;We expected genes would play a little bit of a role, but we were surprised how strong  role they played.&quot;</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Previously, experts primarily focused on the environmental factors that pushed people to vote. &quot;For a long time, they thought that parents and children have pretty much the same behavior when it comes to voting,&quot; Fowler said. &quot;If they voted, it's likely you will go to the polls as well.&quot; </font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">But, rather than transmitting ideas, &quot;parents are transmitting genes,&quot; Fowler now believes.</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">He co-authored a report on the issue, published in July's The Journal of Politics.</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">In the study, Fowler and Ph.D. candidate Christopher T. Dawes drew on voter-turnout data in Los Angeles. They matched that data to a registry of identical and non-identical twins.</font> </p></description>

			<title>RE: Colorado Thought Crimes (Literally) Enacted Into Law</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5059</link>
			<description><p><strong><a href="/story.php?id=5055"><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">This article</font></a><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"> is troubling for several reasons.</font></strong><br /><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2"> <br />(1) It blurs the distinction between &quot;protected classifications&quot; and &quot;protected groups.&quot; This is an important distinction which is made, I note, in each of the related search engine stories on the Internet. One reason this is important is to teach it to your readers who need to know the difference. Remember the related call for hate crime prosecution when whites were victims, and the police chief said he didn't know if whites were a protected group?  They're a protected classification under the law; the concept of protected group is not involved. The blurring is deliberately done by ADL in their public statements and in their law enforcement training, and it behooves us to know what the law means without confusion.<br /></font> <br /></p></description>

We don't see people waiting on the government to do anything.<br />5. We don't see Hollywood organizing benefits to raise money for people to rebuild.<br />6. We don't see people blaming President Bush.<br />7. We don't see people ignoring evacuation orders.<br />8. We don't see people blaming a government conspiracy to blow up the levees as the reason some have not held.<br />9. We don't see the US Senators or the Governor of Iowa crying on TV.<br />10. We don't see the Mayors of any of these cities complaining about the lack of state or federal response.<br />11. We don't see or hear reports of the police going around confiscating personal firearms so only the criminal will be armed.<br />12. We don't see gangs of people going around and randomly shooting at the rescue workers.<br />13. You don't see some leaders in this country blaming the bad behavior of the Iowa flood victims on 'society' (of course there is no wide spread reports of lawlessness to require excuses). </font></p></description>

			<title>A Lesson From Costa Rica</title>

This past month, my family and I traveled to Costa Rica for ten days.</font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">Now, before I go on, I ought to give you all a little background information about myself. I have been racially conservative for approximately four years now. An extremely unfortunate incident involving the violent murder of a beloved high school teacher made me radically reevaluate and realign my previous outlook on all issues, specifically those of race, culture, and nationhood. </font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">So I am yet a budding race realist, but I consider myself endlessly fortunate to have aligned myself with the growing racialist movement this early on. </font></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">This trip to Costa Rica was the first trip to a third world nation which I could analyze from a racially conservative perspective. I made a surprising amount of relevant observations during my time in this subtropical country in Latin America.</font></p></description>

			<title>No Babies?</title>
			<link>http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=5049</link>
			<description><p><strong><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">As the birthrate in European countries drops well below the &quot;replacement rate&quot; — that is, an average of 2.1 children born to every woman — the declining population will first be felt in the playgrounds.</font></strong></p><p><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">When Falivena took office in 2002 for his second stint as mayor, two numbers caught his attention. Four: that was how many babies were born in the town the year before. And five: the number of children enrolled in first grade at the school, never mind that the school served two additional communities as well. “I knew what was my first job, to try to save the school,” Falivena told me. “Because a village that does not have a school is a dead village.” He racked his brain and came up with a desperate idea: pay women to have babies. And not just a token amount, either; in 2003 Falivena let it be known he would pay 10,000 euros (about $15,000) for every woman — local or immigrant, married or single — who would give birth to and rear a child in the village.</font></p></description>

And now it seems Boise Idaho is targeted for a little badly needed re-education which I’ll get to in a moment. It all seems to have started when a Mr. Tim Woodward wrote an article on May 14<sup>th</sup> called ‘</font><a href="http://www.idahostatesman.com/161/story/380346.html"><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" color="#800080" size="2">A Little tolerance would become us</font></a><font face="verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="2">,’ wherein he related the trials and tribulations of a (long time resident) Japanese American woman in Boise being subjected to the alleged slings and arrows of ‘intolerance.’ Like some of the reader’s comments following the piece I too have a gut feeling that Mr. Woodward has been duped. How many people go around calling someone ‘ugly’ or ‘weird’ as she claimed? Maybe they did but I don’t live there (yet) so it’s hard to verify what I feel is a strong hunch. However, another incident involving a Mexican boy being ostracized by a bus driver seems to have been proven to be either a hoax or blown out of proportion, again according to the local reader’s comments. </font></span></p><p /><p /></description>
