Great post. Thomas Sowell makes sober reading indeed. VDH has warned so eloquently of what was happening. Several years of columns, speeches, essays detailing the loss of American culture, mores, values, and heritage.
Someone called talk radio the other morning to say she and her husband had left California a few years ago, but that her husband happened to be there on business on one particular day: No Mexicans day, whatever they called it. No Mexican labor anywhere in the state would show up for work. Her husband had said Los Angeles had turned into Mexico until that day when lo and behold the illegals stayed home. No clunkers on the road, no sullen Hispanics of any sort lining up for welfare, food stamps, work,etc.. It was like LA of old, but only for one day, alas.
I heard that woman’s telephone call, too.
I think it was Glen Beck’s radio show when Glen was on vacation.
