Immigration = Assimilation

Posted on January 15, 2007January 19, 2007 by marc

I’ve discussed illegal immigration at great length in my previous blog (from which my posts will, eventually, be extracted and published here). My position is essentially that: Immigration into the U.S. should be closely managed by our government The U.S. should provide a clear, orderly process toward citizenship We should have a well-defined and regulated…

Schoolgirl Bullies

Posted on January 15, 2007January 15, 2007 by marc

It’s shades of the Glenbrook Girls all over again, only the new girls from hell are so proud of what they’re doing that they’re uploading the videos to the Internet. Last month in New Jersey, a girl was stalked and deliberately attacked by multiple female schoolmates and beaten outside a school gym. “It was brutal,”…

Jewish Support for Illegal Immigration?

Posted on January 12, 2007January 12, 2007 by marc

David Schraub thinks that Jews should support Latinos in their “struggle” to immigrate to the U.S. In his post he points out that Samuel Freedman wrote: “this means creating a rational route to citizenship for the millions of illegal immigrants. They inhabit a netherworld, holding jobs that Americans cannot or will not take while having…

Minimum Wage Increase? Bad Idea…

Posted on January 10, 2007January 19, 2007 by marc

…unless you’re a Democrat fulfilling a campaign promise. Look, there’s this little think called the bottom line that most college grads have heard of. It’s the one that says, “Mr. Biz Owner, you can spend $X on labor and still make the type of profit that’s going to keep you in business.” An increase in…

Executions Down Nationally…

Posted on January 7, 2007January 7, 2007 by marc

…but they’re up in Texas. The Houston Chronicle reports: The convicted killer of a 3-year-old boy is set to die this week, the first of five lethal injections scheduled this month as Texas bucks a national trend and bolsters its standing as the most active in carrying out capital punishment. Twenty-four condemned Texas killers were…

Bad Liberal Ideas

Posted on December 12, 2006 by marc

Here’s a blog entry that shows, yet again, why liberals shouldn’t be elected dog catcher, let alone to a real job.  The prime quote: Principal Paul Richards said a key reason for stopping the practice [ed. of printing the names of honor roll students in the local paper] is its contribution to students’ stress level…

MySpace to be Safer?

Posted on December 5, 2006January 18, 2007 by marc

MySpace is trying to make itself safe for kids but it’s a waste of time and effort. Don’t be fooled – there is no reliable way to keep human trash from trolling for underage victims given the current state of the Net. Do we really want to eliminate that sort of behavior? Sure, but at…

4 Years Ago Today: Big Brother is Coming

Posted on November 15, 2006 by marc

4 years ago I wrote: The fact is, there is always going to be a certain amount of risk involved in living. No President can change that by ordering profiles created on each of us. A better first step would be to build a working immigration and naturalization system. Non-citizens inherently have lower expectations of…

Stinkers of the Day

Posted on November 15, 2006 by marc

O.J. Simpson’s New Book “If I Did It” may be the truest thing the smug bastard’s said in years.  Can’t wait to not read it! On a personal note, I got some benefit out of the case – it taught me what it really means to be a racial bigot.  In those days I worked…

Where Are Schoolboy Sex Offenders?

Posted on November 12, 2006 by marc

The Houston Chronicle says that “no single authority knows how many registered sex offenders are high school students”. At least some of them are re-offending, of course, as discussed last month.  Is the fact that these creeps aren’t on peoples’ radars screen due to government incompetence, the default, or because of juvenile shielding? Shari Julian,…
