Didn’t mean to hijack this thread. V.D.H. again writes a great article. We need more thinkers of his ilk.

The VDH article is a great one. But it is only a slight variation of other great articles he has written on the same subject. The “broken record” repetition of his grief over the loss of California is sad. But I’m not sure what he hopes to accomplish by writing, however well, about the same thing repeatedly.
I can only assume, since the situation is hopeless and he refuses to move, that he is simply waiting to be killed at home by a criminal one night and expecting one of these sad articles to be his epitaph.
VDH is the only writer for whom I’ll put with the most abusive adverts.
Regarding illegals in CA, I recall VDH writing that perhaps he could understand how a Gallic Roman felt when he watched Germans storm across the Rhine.
