Jean Respail predicted all this in 1973: le Camp des Saints.

Any Freeper who hasn't read it should try to get a copy. That's increasingly hard to do, but there is a free downloadable version at BooksVooks - The Camp of the Saints.

Raspail describes the end of western civilization through mass immigration. He says he was inspired to write the book while at the French Riviera in 1971. As he looked across the Mediterranean he thought, "What if they were to come? I did not know who 'they' were, but it seemed inevitable to me that the numberless disinherited people of the South would, like a tidal wave, set sail one day for this opulent shore, our fortunate country's wide-gaping frontier."

Our civilization is a miracle. It stands as a great exception to mankind's lot of poverty and disease. It is not self-sustaining and takes appreciation and effort if it is to continue. We may be living in its final stage.

I obtained a copy some 40 years ago, and skimmed through much of it. I never read it. I thought it'd be too depressing to read. But I still have it on a shelf.

But I saw this demographic displacement coming when I was in high school during the Carter years, even before I got that book. A couple of my high school friends were worried too. We talked about it.

But there was no internet. Nothing we could do. No way to organize. For information sources, all we had were magazines like National Review and Soldier of Fortune (which had some great classified ads for books). And we listened to Bob Grant on WOR-AM. He was prescient.

My father told me not to worry about it. I can't change these things, and besides, it'll probably work out. My family (all Republicans) thought that I was the far-right nut in the family, and that I would outgrow it.

But like Bob Grant, I too proved prescient.

Partner. this what Obama wanted us to be a Communist country,

All of these illegals can not come here since we do not have the $$$$$$$$$$$$.

Where does our Constitution say that all Illegals can come to the USA.

Yes, and strange though it seems, there are actually people who want to destroy it.
