Now, you see hundreds of mexicans walking around across yards, and parking lots. They do this because they cant get a car easily as an illegal alien.
The area is teaming with dirty people who do not look like they are from America. It looks very dangerous there, yet only a few years ago, friends and I biked the area regularly. Now, you wouldn't dare.
This is the "New America". A place that looks like a bombed out third world nation, and that is what Southwest and parts of the West side of Houston have become.
Ghetto isn't a good enough word to fit what I saw today. Its absolutely horrible there. And, the city has obvisouly given up trying to enforce laws, and keep the area clean.
As REPUBLICANS seek to open the border and allow in millions of alien mexicans and other latins, won't many other areas take on this bombed out border town appearance?
And then, to top it off, a two wheeled cart with the word "TACO" on the side of it was being pushed up and down the streets there by a hispanic male....just the same kind of junk you see over the border...but, whats the difference?
The West side of Houston looks more like mexico than America.
RLK, is that your coinage? Pardon me for not citing more of your essay, I would have to do so much cut and pasting that it would be too tedious, the best I can do is flag individuals to read it.
Therein lies the problem.
FR readers represent perhaps the top 5% of our society in terms of an understanding of freedom and the generation of a high standard of living and individual rights. Yet even on FR I doubt that more than a tiny % will take the time to read your essay.
I agree with all of your premises, I see a tide coming in which will sweep away the last islands of individual property rights, and hence freedom. Clearly the West, and America, has already passed the tipping point beyond which the unproductive takers cannot be stopped from voting tax increases on the wealth producers. And I see no solution.
And of course you correctly identify the problem with the Mexican flood. We are today Serbia writ large in this way, our Southwest is Big Kosovo. The Kosovo Serbs also enjoyed their cheap Albanian maids and gardeners, and in time were swallowed by them as the Southwest will be by Mexicans. Again, I see no solution.
If there is any small consolation to be found, it is that history does not long move in straight lines, and we may have a massive breach which will result in an entirely new set of opportunities and dangers. Of course, the risk is that the man on a white horse is more likely to ride to the rescue than a new Thomas Jefferson.
For me, I consider myself to be a free agent, a Ronin in a chaotic period, hoping to land upon islands of sanity and stability and freedom in an insane and increasingly unstable insane world.
Of course, such "islands" will become "tax havens" for the "rich" who are "attempting to evade their global duty", and will be ruthlessly saught out and crushed to prevent their serving as symbols to the global serfs of the possibility of resistance to central control.
I only hope that my children will be able to experience some of our legacy of freedom before the last vault is looted and the last book from the library is burned to heat the last can of spam.
PS: stand by to be angrily condemned by the Bush Beatification Society.
Your statement sums up Bush pretty well. I've noticed that about him also.
Thanks for writing and posting your essay.
I have tried to tackle the need to awaken with various essays. The most in point, I suppose is Immigration & The American Future. But the tactics and methodology that are being used against us are analyzed in several essays on parallel subjects, including The Battle Over Patterns Of Personal Identification; Destroying Cultural Continuity; Myths & Myth Makers In American "Higher" Education; and Politics 2001.
There are links in the above to many other essays on issues that will be suggested in those listed. If anyone can put any of this material to use in the cause; that is what it is there for.

More purple paranoia from pea-brained nativists.
Mr. Bush's lack of direction is very apparent in his handling of Arafat. Arafat is a terrorist. Bush promised to go after terrorists. He hasn't kept his word.
The hordes of irrational, deluded, marxist parasites will now proceed to destroy the USA, western civilization (what's left of it), and the human race (with the help and incouragement of US and EU politicians).

The individual producers of humanity are now destroyed. (I have voluminous first-hand evidence of this...)
I am (literally) sick of it.
The fact is that the parasites of US society now vastly outnumber the producers.
The very sad fact is that these don't know WHAT it takes to produce ANYTHING, because they have never produced ANYTHING.
If fact, they are taught that PRODUCING THINGS is harmful to the environment (in some unspecified way), and since they (unquestionably) believe this, they have lost the right to survive.
I can raise chickens, and grow fruit/vegetables in an extremely remote location. Self-sufficient fish/prawn farming is also an option, but requires a modest capital outlay.
Industrial society will now end because the vast majority of people are fat, parasitic and astoundingly stupid.
The best Individual human minds are that which kept you alive. Many of these have now been severly damaged by your tyrannical stupidity. We now turn our attention to our own personal health and recovery.
Kiss your government-subsidized lifestyle goodbye.
