Ham Panic in Maine

“Specialists” called in to grapple with culinary hatred

A piece of ham left on a lunch table at Lewiston Middle School in Maine has sparked an all-out hunt against “racism” and the intervention of both police and “experts.” Reportedly the offending hamsteak was left near a group of Somali pupils who, as Muslims, view ham as “unclean.” The school immediately suspended one student in relation to the outrage, and gurus from the absurdly-named nonprofit Center for the Prevention of Hate Violence have been called in to render opinions on how to devise a “response plan.” Cops are said to be mulling charges. There are no reports on whether forensics have managed to identify the cut, or whether or not it is indeed ham, some other pork product, or something else.

Whether the “crime” was an intentional prank, a hoax or an honest mistake, the overkill reactions are usual for militant multiculturalists intent on intolerantly forcing “tolerance” on European-derived populations across the Western world. The “guilty” child should expect to have his or her “transgression” marked on their permament record and to be subjected to various forms of Orwellian thought reform programs. The “incident” will also be a chance for the humorless thought police to stage criticism sessions and campaigns against dissidence.Lewiston has been the site of similar idiocy in the recent past. As a white, blue-collar area, Lewiston was slated as a site to relocate Somali refugees, since the well-off people who push such programs don’t want them in their own areas. (Lewiston was 95.75% white in 2000). Last summer, a Lewiston meat-delivery worker was worked over by the courts after a frozen pig’s head slipped out of his hands and bounced into a storefront Somali mosque. After a legal nightmare, the man was able to convince a judge that the incident was not fuelled by hate. Nonetheless, the Maine Attorney General’s Office demand for an injunction against the man was upheld by the judge, who threatened the worker with a year in prison for any violation.  

Governments and other establishment forces across the Western world have been especially anxious to enforce the impossible goal of “integrating” Third World immigrants, usually with bizarre effects. In Germany, a judge upheld spousal abuse as an expression of Islamic family relations. Police officers in many jurisdictions in the United States are barred from investigating the immigration status of suspects. Holidays have been diluted as being “too white” and, again, “offensive” to immigrants. Banks in the United Kingdom have banned piggy banks as “offensive” to Muslims and Jews, while a new law has been implemented across the European Union to criminalize opposition to immigration and the erosion of freedom it brings along with it.
