First they came for the librarians…

Steve Sailer likes to point out the irony of the Los Angeles Times’ dutiful support for illegal immigration driving the subsequent collapse of English literacy in Southern California, meaning fewer and fewer people are left who care to read the Los Angeles Times.

Poking Fun

The Smoking Gun gets the vapors. This is a curious thing. Two anonymous fellows engage in offensive behavior–dressing as Trayvon Martin (complete with blackface and gunshot wound) and George Zimmerman. They are neither celebrities nor public officials.

At the White House. By himself.No press or other intruders allowed. Except theContinue reading “A Moment of Silence, Attended by Fanfare”
