VIDEOS: Social order breaking down: latest example from Cincinnati

Speaking of anti-social behaviour and the decline (and imminent fall!) of American society, we repost this video of an outbreak of feral negritude in a typical Democrat-run American city.


If you're the fourth monkey (see previous post), you probably think nothing of it [or think nothing. Period. Ed.], but, if I can have your attention -- take your eyes off the damn phone! -- for just a second... this is race war, an attack by black yoofs on white tourists. 

This is neither an isolated incident nor a recent phenomenon. You don't believe me? Try driving into the black-only no-go zones you'll find in virtually every American city. It's like the scene in National Lampoon's Vacation where the Griswolds take the wrong exit and wind up in the ghetto.


What is to be done to protect ourselves -- decent, law-abiding citizens -- from these alleged people? The answer may be found here.

VIDEO: "The Birth of a Nation" (full) - a lesson for our times?

Just about 100% of the reviews you'll read for D.W. Griffiths' masterpiece, The Birth of a Nation focus on the racism, pro-South bias, "glorification" of the Ku Klux Klan, yada yada yada. There is no dbout about the bias, but there is also no doubt that the events depicted are real, a cautionary tale about what happens when you turn society on its head.

In another masterpiece, The Civil War, film-maker Ken Burns quotes a freed slave as telling his master "Bottom rail on top now!" As the film shows, the aim of many radical abolitionists before, during and after the Civil War was nothing less than to make downtrodden black Americans rulers over the privileged whites. To do so, they used rigged elections (in which whites were disenfranchised), mob violence, and occupation of southern cities and states by the federal army.

Sounds familiar, doesn't it? The KKK was undeniably racist, but would not have come into being were it not for the necessity of defending southern society and, dare we say it, civilization, in a country which had descended into chaos. Watching The Birth of a Nation may make some people uncomfortable, but it would be foolish to let the political incorrectness blind us to the realities of the culture war which America experienced then... and now.

 

President Woodrow Wilson is famously rumored to have responded to the film with the remark: "It is like writing history with lightning. And my only regret is that it is all so terribly true." His published works as a historian are closely aligned with the film's negative portrayal of Reconstruction. Some of his writings are even quoted onscreen in certain prints of the film.

Also worth watching (and free of bias!) Mississippi's War: Slavery and Secession, a production of Mississippi Public Broadcasting, 2014.
