Islamic imperialism. 75% of the muslims in America are 1st generation immigrants or their parents.

31 and mayor.

What a country of Red Commie Dupes.

In the 1980s the Communist bookstore in Cambridge had a pro-Chi-Coms display in their window during the Tiananmen Square massacre.

The Boston Marathon bombers in were shielded by the authorities.

Are the same mosques that indoctrinated them operating today?

"Thank you for not posting her pic."

The faces of all these Muzzie women in office give me nightmares. I wish they'd go back to wearing the veil and shrouds.

Put Muslims in all the city leadership positions and school positions.

Those celebrations of "diversity" will begin to quickly fade.

She’s a spitting image of her cousin Tlaib from MI. Probably has the loud mouth also.

I didn’t feel safe walking the streets anymore.

I'm surprised you survived wearing a MAGA hat.

The two marathon bombers were raised in Cambridge on welfare, living in subsidized housing. The younger one was a recipient of a Cambridge college scholarship. The mother was charged for stealing thousands of dollars of clothing from some upscale store, maybe Nordstroms.

In England they trumped up charges against Anglos in academia and replaced them with Islamists. For awhile each occurance was treated simply as a local story.

The worn out “multiculturalism” comes to mind.

How I learned to hate that word.

Now, it’s diversity.
