    Yes, I actually agree that it could happen in America. America is not "God's country" with some special divine protection. We could descend to the level of Third World savagery.

    If the rise of China combines with the moral decline of America ... and we have some sort of military encounter with China where we are humiliated ... combine that with a big economic collapse 1929-style ... and we could see a re-run of Germany 1933. (I'm talking decades in the future now. China is nowhere near ready to show us who's boss yet.)

    But it would be bloody beyond belief. Let the crazed Left push for the break-up of America, not us.

    Dude study after study shows that these programs don't work, crab pot syndrome kills them dead. Until you find a way to cure the under lying pathologies head start is simply a waste of everyone's time and money.

    There are probably not many Americans who are explicitly in favor of 'Open Borders'. But there is a significant minority who, in practice, try to get just such a condition, or near enough as to make no difference. And they dominate the naive airheads by playing on race and class guilt.

    Let me ask you this: would you favor allowing anyone into the US who does not have criminal background, and who has not explicitly made anti-American or anti-democratic avowals? Another way of putting it: what would your criteria for immigration into the US be? There are probably very few people who would want to see MR13's remaining members in El Salvador come to the US, or the cadres of ISIS arrive here ... but are you in favor of applying other criteria than explicit commitment to murder us? In other words, are you in favor of 99% Open Borders?


    As for Open Borders, I wouldn't say that "every last American" believes in controlling immigration. Please have a look here.

    Same place will tell you that while crime among women is on the increase it is still largely a male dominated avocation. Socio economic stats are also available just use the search function.

    Okay, let's try to agree on some criteria for identifying people who fall, genuinely, into the 'racist' category. Keep in mind that being an open, explicit racist is pretty taboo in America today, as is being an open explicit anti-Semite. So these people don't necessarily hang the right label on themselves.

    Nonetheless, anyone with a bit of political experience can identify them. Of course, the fact that the Left scream 'racist' and 'neo-Nazi' at anyone who doesn't buy into their ideology confuses things a bit, just as the fact that hardline Zionists scream 'anti-Semite' at anyone who's not an expansionist Zionist.

    But we can ignore these people and identify the real racists and anti-Semites.

    So ... would you not agree that brother Brewskier is an anti-Semite, by anyone's definition? Just look back up this thread to confirm this. 'Overt', 'Covert', 'Schmovert', the man's a Jew-hater. Would you not agree? If you don't agree that he is, then nothing I can write will convince you about the white racists. But if you will agree with my characterization of him, then we can move on to others.

    Join us in the 21st century please. Ike is not president anymore.

    CNN
    GOP's surprising edge on diversity

    https://www.cnn.com/2013/01/18/opinion/avlon-gop-diversity/index.html

    "...........it might surprise you to hear that Republicans are by far the more diverse party when it comes to statewide elected officials such as senators and governors. On this front, they leave Democrats in the dust. And that's why the GOP actually has a greater depth of diversity on their potential presidential bench looking to 2016 and beyond.
    It's counterintuitive but true. Numbers don't lie
    ........"

    And yet, its the left wingers that always wish to be more like Scandinavian countries. Remind us again what race is 99% of their people?

    Ike was a big proponent of integration, it was FDR, Woodrow Wilson, you know, lefty icons who stopped desegregation attempts.

    You should agree with the first sentence, it's a statement of MY experience; nobody elses. Are there such claims? Could be; I don't read every post- but I've never seen one, and would have responded with criticism if I had. Certainly there are people who don't want various groups around, such as many who think muslims should not be in America at all. However the idea that only whites should be Americans, or a blanket discrimination against all others is something I have never seen stated or implied here.

    Perfectly happy that our nation can be multi-racial. That does not, however, mean that as our multi racial guests come to live, that we expect that they expect that we somehow transform our culture to accommodate them. Folks who come here need to be aware that our culture, our political makeup are what those of us who are already here require them to adopt.

    Yet the (relatively) few instances of mass murder have been enough to justify gun control.

    Inconsistency?

    So what? Most "right wingers" do not care because they are not obsessed by race like lefties.

    You seem top be the one with a problem. I don't remember running across anyone, right winger or otherwise wishing the the US was white, black, brown or yellow. The most frequent references to race and religion come from identity politicians who slither around on the left.

    These are people who call themselves progressive, worshipping their patron saint, Woodrow Wilson, the most racist President in our history. They still worship at the alter of KKK Grand Cleagle Robert Byrd, whose statue still stands in the Capitol Bldg. They are people who attack minorities who leave their plantation and escape the economic bondage that replaced the shackles.

    Your attempt to polarize is noted. Sharing a forum with Progressives, it has become commonplace to the point of being boring.

    Soon they won't be able to use this argument anymore. The social utopia of Sweden is already beginning to disintegrate before our eyes. Indicators of social well-being are on the downturn.

    Look at school test scores, for example. Sexual assault rates.
    Poverty rates. Young adult unemployment rates are also up, even among the children of native Swedes (up substantially relative to what they were 20 years ago, still not as high as in the U.S. though).

    I find it interesting that such a major component of liberal progress is dissolving the culture of our nation. The "multi-culturalism" they pander to. I wonder why the OP didn't include this as a part of the discussion from the beginning. Seems quite disingenuous of them.

    Its also funny that the most liberal states up in the North east are also 99% white. Yet the left's justification for why the GOP is "racist" is because there aren't enough diversity. There is more diversity in the GOP than there is in DE, MA, VT, and RI.

    I understand your point; you are saying they want others to act in line with their values. That's a huge variable because we have such a wide disparity of values. For example, I'm not catholic- and I have lost business contracts because of that. What I expect of others is to act with good values- and that will always include integrity, respect for others in general, and respect for the nation in general. If you go around with a chip on your shoulder, or with a thug attitude indicating you don't respect the rights of others not like you- then I have a problem with your attitude. Doesn't make a difference if you are black or white or brown, and if you use your color as an excuse for bad attitude or behavior, then I will see YOU as the racist. Race does not give people privilege or deserve special accommodation or entitlement. If you act respectably, I will respect you. If you act disrespectfully toward others or toward the nation itself and claim it's a privilege of race, I will consider you unfit to be called American.

    "Acting white" is a generality, individually defined by the person observing. Acting respectably relates to basic values that make a society function.

    Well, you know what will get black people to vote for you without hesitation? Have hot sauce in your hand bag.

    While I agree that those who fear brown-people are racists, I think the basis of that cowardice is common to all humans, especially low-educated and/or low IQ ones: A fear of change.

    Wasn't it Brewskier the one who compared that ideology to AIDS?
    It doesn't attack the body directly, but ends up resulting in the body wasting away through killing off the immune system and leaving the body open to all sorts of other diseases.
