Yelling “I Hate White People,” and Punching One, isn’t a Hate Crime

My friend Diversity Chronicle sent me this story from The Washington Post:

Tamara Crowchief may have yelled “I hate white people” as she carried out a violent assault on a white person, but that doesn’t mean her attack was racially motivated, a Canadian judge has ruled.

The attack occurred outside a pub in Calgary, Canada, on Nov. 1, according to the Calgary Herald. Crowchief’s victim, identified as Lydia White, lost a tooth in the assault, the paper reported.

Prosecutor Karuna Ramakrishnan had tried to put Crowchief behind bars for 12 to 15 months by arguing that the indigenous woman’s “unprovoked” actions represented a hate crime, the paper reported. But Judge Harry Van Harten of the provincial court strongly disagreed.

The Calgary Herald reported that the attack happened suddenly and without warning.


White was standing outside the pub talking to another person when Crowchief walked up and yelled “I hate white people” before punching White in the face, the paper reported. After the assault, Crowchief left the scene, but White followed her and called police.


When authorities arrived and arrested Crowchief, she told them “the white man was out to get her,” the paper reported.

From the headline alone, one might get the impression that The Washington Post actually sympathizes with the victim, and recognizes the absurdity of the situation – and I suspect that the author might actually feel this way.

But, with the exception of what I quoted above, almost the entire article is about the oppression of Indigenous Canadians in the past. Even the photo at the beginning of the article (the only included graphic) depicts a march by Indigenous Canadians “to bring attention to the plight of indigenous peoples in Canada.”

The article has a split personality; the headline says one thing, but the photo, and most of the article, say something totally different. It’s possible that the author wanted to highlight the absurdity of the judge’s decision, and the fact that white people are now second-class citizens, but his editors forced him to push the official narrative instead – that white people are the oppressors, and non-whites are the victims.

It’s interesting that the judge is white, and the prosecutor (who tried to get hate-crime charges) appears to be of Indian origin. Indeed, our greatest enemies are often other whites.

Cornell University Encourages Microaggressions Against People of Color

Thanks to Amren for pointing us to a story from Campus Reform regarding Cornell University’s new immunization requirements and exemptions:

Students at Cornell University can use their status as a “person of color” to be exempt from the university’s flu vaccine requirement.

“Students who identify as Black, Indigenous, or as a Person of Color (BIPOC) may have personal concerns about fulfilling the Compact requirements based on historical injustices and current events,” explains Cornell Health’s vaccine requirement FAQ.

Students can send a private message to Cornell Health in order to request a non-medical or non-religious exemption for the immunization. For more information, the FAQ links to a page “especially for students of color,” which is meant to help minority students concerned about the flu vaccine requirement.

Ostensibly, this exemption is in order to address racism – but let’s see what Cornell University’s website actually says about the immunization requirement:

Immunization requirements are in place to protect the health of the community. Therefore, very few exemptions are allowed by New York State Public Health Law.At present, two exemptions may be pursued: a medical exemption and a religious exemption.

In other words, the primary concern is not for the protection of the individual in question, but for the protection of those around him.

Bearing this in mind, it would be reasonable for white Cornell students to keep their distance from non-white students. After all, if non-white students are less likely to have been immunized, then being around them is more of a risk.

If a white Cornell student is cancelled for crossing the street to avoid Students of Color, would his fear of contracting the flu be considered a valid defense? Somehow, I doubt it.

In other news, there has been a lot of commentary about the increasing levels of gun violence in Chicago, but Portland is also experiencing a dramatic uptick in gun violence. The fact that this is occurring right after Portland reduced funding for its Gun Violence Reduction Team, has been noticed even by the corporate media:

Police reports show shootings are up for every month this year compared to last. As of October 1 the total number of shootings stood at 595, an 82% increase over the same time period in 2019.
Kimberely Dixon believes she knows why.

“I think we need to take a look at historical context,” she said. “I think if we go back and take a look at July, which is when we decided to defund the police, we also had the most tremendous uptick in violence.”

The numbers did jump from 61 shootings in June to 103 in July of 2020.
Dixon is a volunteer on the police bureau’s crisis response team, which helps individuals and families suffering from trauma, including shootings.

She also knows the pain of gun violence – someone murdered her son 7 years ago. It was gang related. She said the way to stop the violence is to stop defunding the police…

“One of the biggest mistakes is the police department, and them defunding the Gun Violence Reduction Team,” he said.

In mid-June city commissioners voted to cut the police budget by $15 million dollars. The cuts included the Gun Violence Reduction Team (GVRT), which some called racist because the team disproportionately stopped Black drivers.

It goes without saying that a disproportionate number of gun-criminals are black, so naturally black people, specifically young black males, should get more attention. Failure to do so costs lives.

It’s funny how the government is so extremely concerned about a potential loss of life if we don’t adhere to its draconian Covid-19 dictates – but they’ll gladly sacrifice lives if the alternative is accusations of “racism.”

I Clicked the “I am not a Robot Box”

Today I visited the Department of Motor Vehicles website in order to renew the registration on my motorcycle. At the end of one of the pages is the familiar box, where we certify that we’re not robots. I clicked on it – and then realized it’s not entirely true.

In reality, we’re not all that different from robots. In a sense, we’re elaborate machines.

This became apparent to me when I tried to do some shopping at a local grocery store. They were playing Christmas music.

No problem! Even though I’m Jewish, I’ll have no part in The War Against Christmas. Christmas is an important part of Western culture, and specifically American culture. If I don’t like it, there are other countries I can move to where Christmas isn’t such a big deal, and where I’d be spared the constant drone of Christmas carols at retail outlets. When Americans celebrate Christmas, and greet each other with “Merry Christmas” instead of “Happy Holidays,” I say, all the power to them!

And yet I was triggered. I literally had a bad mood attack, and felt an anger rising up in my bowels that was out of my control.

What happened?

Years ago, I used to work in retail. From Black Friday until New Years, we would work long hours, sometimes 11 or 12 hours a day. At this particular store, the manager was a born-again Christian (or so it was said). He made sure that we were bombarded with Christmas carols for our entire shift – and not just any Christmas carols; he handpicked the most religious-oriented ones, the ones whose lyrics included “Christ Child,” and the like, numerous times.

These were hard times for me. As a borderline Aspie, noises and sounds have a big impact on me; I can’t tune out barking dogs, snoring or certain types of music. Over the course of those weeks, I couldn’t sleep, I felt tortured by the incessant carols assaulting my ears, it was raining non-stop and cold. I had nobody to talk to – and the music became a point of contention with my bosses. I got yelled at for wearing ear plugs.

Eventually, the holiday season ended, my work schedule went back to normal, I was prescribed Ambien to help me sleep – and I no longer had to endure the long days of constant Christmas carols.

But the trauma left its mark. The machinery of my psyche had been damaged. On a positive note, I can avoid these situations, so it’s not that big a deal.

It may not be true for all of us, but speaking for myself, the older I get the more I realize that I’m not that special. When it comes down to it, we’re products of our circumstances – not that different from robots.

On a positive note, here’s a photo from my recent vacation, driving a dune buggy while sick as a dog on a rainy day. What fun.

Race in Dominican Republic

The vast majority of Dominicans are mulattoes, and there’s a sprinkling of mestizos and white people mixed in. It’s possible that some areas have a different racial mix than others, but I only visited four places, and wasn’t able to venture out as much as planned, due to illness.

I’ve said it a million times, and I’ll say it again: When you travel (internationally or domestically) greet people with a smile, treat them with respect, don’t be overly stingy and be kind. If you do this, then you’ll find that almost everybody will reciprocate – and you’ll enjoy yourself. People can sense hostility. So if you’re one of those people who is overly fearful of certain demographics, or has a chip on his shoulder, locals will sense this, and you’ll get exactly what you expected: A negative experience.

I’ve already written that most of the Dominicans I encountered were very friendly. Obviously, there were exceptions.

While walking along a beach with a friend (a man I met at the hotel), there was an Asian man who was accompanied by what looked like a local (black) woman. One of the many hawkers aggressively approached the couple, and loudly said “You CHINESE? You look CHINESE!” Then his buddy said something inaudible, and he replied something to the effect of “I don’t talk to white people.”

Immediately afterwards, he turned to me and tried to engage me, probably to sell me something. I told him, “You just said you don’t talk to white people, so I’m not talking to you.” His buddy burst out laughing; he thought it was hilarious. The man persisted, and I said, “This was your decision, not mine.”

A little while later, I overheard somebody else referring to “black brothers.” This was in English, which was interesting. Apparently, in that specific location, there’s a lot of black nationalism. But this was an unusual area, with many tourists and probably some shady business. I don’t know this for a fact, but I suspect that some of the tourists are pedophiles, and some probably deal in drugs. I didn’t ask, but the place did make me uncomfortable, and my visit there was short.

In general, my impression was that Dominicans are not hostile to non-blacks…

… and the country used to be a lot whiter than it is now, but due to the constant influx of Haitians, it’s getting blacker and blacker. I’ve heard the same thing about neighboring Puerto Rico, which is culturally identical to Dominican Republic.

I only spoke to a handful of locals about Haitians, so obviously, I’m not an expert. But the first person I spoke to told me that they have a lot of babies, have higher crime-rates, and that they eat ANYTHING. In fact, he said that just the other day, he saw a bunch of them cooking a cat.

I met a young man at the resort, and starting chatting with him. It turned out he’s married to a Haitian woman, so I ended up chatting with her too. She confirmed that Haitians do, indeed, eat cats – except for one village where they eat dogs instead. The man told me that they spend a good part of the year in Haiti, and that it’s not nearly as bad as people say it is. He claimed that it’s a “well-kept secret” because tourists haven’t spoiled it yet. The beaches are still pristine and it’s generally not dangerous, depending on the area. The lady told me that Haitians are very classist. Her mother had come from a poor background, and for that she was looked down upon. But her father was from a wealthier family, and she, herself, had attended a good private school. She’s fluent in several languages, including Romanian. Proper French is taught in the better Haitian schools.

I asked one of the resort employees in Puerto Plata about his thoughts on Haitians. He said that Dominicans can generally identify them by their appearance; they’re darker than most Dominicans, and they have smaller ears.

Like other non-white/non-Asian countries, the crime rate is high. Almost all dwellings have bars over the windows and patios. Many neighborhoods have guarded security gates with controlled access. The streets, at least in Punta Cana, don’t have any drainage; when it rains, the water can be over a foot deep, and some spots are practically impassible.

On the other hand, the intercity bus system is excellent. I was truly impressed. The buses are very modern, comfortable, efficient, on-time, clean and safe. These are not tourist buses, but buses that everybody uses – and they’re very reasonably priced.

As for the infrastructure, I thought it looked good, at least in the cities. Of course, a lot of it looked aged and in need of painting, but we must take into account that the rainy seasons are hard on concrete.

As might be expected, this is what the politicians look like:

Edit: I thought it should be mentioned that Haiti and the Dominican Republic have had a contentious relationship, with Haiti having ruled over what is now Dominican Republic in the past, the later having fought a war to gain its independence.

I’ll quote a recent Quora dialog:

We Dominicans are afraid of the Haitianization of our country. That we perceive of Haiti is all negative.

Haitians in the Dominican Republic are more than 90% undocumented, they live in crowded fields and cities, they are illiterate and in extreme poverty, things that do not help the development of the Dominican Republic and that scares us, added to the historical context, Haiti has always been a hostile neighbor, a neighbor who has done us a lot of harm. They have invaded us and trampled on our dignity.

We Dominicans dream of a government that applies the immigration law and expels all the undocumented, which are more than 900,000 Haitians.

Haiti has many problems but these problems have not been caused by the Dominican Republic, so it is not our responsibility to carry Haiti.

Reuben Hayat

I just got back from D.R. I was told there that Haitians have a lot of babies, eat anything (including cats) and have high crime rates. Thoughts?

Oscar A. Ramírez

They are the poorest segment of society and have a habit of having many children 4, 5, 7 and that only contributes to widening the circle of poverty.

The Dominican Republic will never be able to eliminate extreme poverty as long as it does not control undocumented Haitian immigration, every day undocumented Haitians enter through the mountains and instead very few are deported. 

Reuben Hayat

It seems that Haitian migration presents an existential threat to your country. If nothing is done, D.R. Will end up being merely an extension of Haiti.

Oscar A. Ramírez·40m ago

Sadly it is so, but politically the Dominican Republic is very social democratic. We complain about uncontrolled Haitian irregular immigration, but we always vote for center-left parties, and this ideology has complexes to face irregular immigration throughout the world.

If you choose to vacation in Dominican Republic, the locals will welcome you with open arms.

Travel Musings

Objectively speaking, the airport is the best place to express dissenting views. Security is everywhere, so there’s little risk of being attacked by Antifa. It’s government property, so the First Amendment applies; all lawful sentiments are protected.

So naturally, I wore this face mask at various airports:

Surprisingly, and a little to my disappointment, there were no other political face masks to be seen, not even BLM face masks. I was the only one wearing any sort of political message in this manner, and nobody said anything, or even glared at me.

Of course, the airplanes are private property, so prior to boarding, I switched to my “Boer Lives Matter” face mask. Since the vast majority of Americans get their knowledge, and world view, from the likes of CNN, ABC, MSN etc, very few even know what a Boer is. One man did come up and ask me. Yes, the ignorance is so profound that it’s difficult to even get people to think, let alone start a conversation. People don’t know what a Boer is because CNN doesn’t want them to know. This is why my “Boer Lives Matter” stickers remained on posts in downtown Portland weeks after I’d put them there. People are too ignorant to even be offended.

A friend had requested that I bring him some Dominican rum. Since I travel lightly, and only bring carry-on luggage, I chose to buy the rum at the airport, in one of the duty-free stores. That way I could include it in my carry-on.

Unfortunately, I had a one-day layover in Miami. This meant that I wouldn’t be allowed to get the rum past security upon my return to the airport. Due to my budget ticket, it would have cost me an additional $30 to check a piece of luggage to this end. Not worth it.

I ended up gifting the rum to my relative in Miami. It’s not legal to ship alcoholic beverages via the US Postal Service, UPS or Fedex – unless one has a special license from the government.

The more I thought about it, the more clear it became that we are slaves of the government in the country that’s supposed to be “The Land of the Free.” Dominicans have more freedom than Americans. Things will only get worse, especially with Biden as president.

The eccentric American expats are right about living in places like Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and Mexico. They want to have some semblance of freedom in their lives, and the United States simply does not deliver.

Regarding Dominicans, this is as good a place as any to point out that the vast majority of my experiences with them were positive; they’re very friendly and helpful. On various occasions, I needed a wireless connection in order to order an Uber. Strangers stepped forward to allow me to use their personal cell-phone networks. People smiled and waved as I walked by, even if they wanted nothing from me.

As for their driving, it could be better. I had one Uber driver text for several minutes as he drove. Aggressive driving is the norm, and traffic laws are mere suggestions. Of course, this is the case in most of the world.

Dominicans love loud music, to the point of offending my sensitive ears.

Safety is not always a priority. Scooters weave through traffic in the rain carrying entire families, and most don’t wear helmets. People text while riding scooters and motorcycles.

Here’s a man working on a roof. I took the photos from my hotel room window:

The building had 7 stories. If he’d slipped and fallen, he would have suffered a messy death. As you can see, it would have been easy for him to have used a harness. At least he wore a face mask, sort of.

There is a quarantine in place due to the CCP-Virus. Police wander about looking for violators – for their own safety. If they’re so concerned about safety, why don’t they focus on fixing death traps, such as this hole in the middle of the sidewalk in Punta Cana?

My first stop was Punta Cana, which is only a few miles from Puerto Rico (on the Eastern tip of the island). On a map, it looks easy, but the sea can be rough. In fact, stormy weather is an invitation for ambitious Dominicans to attempt the journey on primitive boats – because the coast guard doesn’t patrol on those nights. People die regularly in such attempts, and I met some locals who told me that they’d lost many friends this way.

It’s not good to conclude a post in this way, so I’ll point out that the all-inclusive resorts of Dominican Republic are great bargains. Without exception I was treated well, and my room in Punta Cana even featured a whirlpool bathtub. It was awesome.

I’m Back from Vacation

It’s not even six o’clock in the morning, so why am I writing a post at this ungodly hour?

It’s because I’m jet-lagged; my body thinks it’s ten o’clock in the morning. That’s the time in Dominican Republic, where I’ve spent the better part of the last couple of weeks.

My plans were many, to visit some of the beautiful waterfalls, see some cool animals and hike. Alas, I got seriously ill on the second night, and remained miserable the entire time, hacking and coughing due to a nasty bronchial infection… but I forced myself to do some activities, such as dune buggy riding, horseback riding, and visiting the famous Island of Saona.

The highlight of my trip, and a major reason I chose that destination, was when I met Steve Brule’. Here he is with his buddy Ginger the cat:

Aside from that, he’s got a YouTube channel, Studio Brule, where he exposes the evils of feminism – but also ventures into other topics, such as anti-white racism. I’ve been subscribed to his channel for a while, having been directed there by my friend Diversity Chronicle. I got to visit him, and his eccentric gang of expats, twice.

Dominican Republic shares the island of Hispaniola with Haiti. When Christopher Columbus discovered America, it was actually the island of Hispaniola that he discovered, and the oldest New World cities were there. This is why the Colonial Quarter of Santo Domingo, the capital, with its many historic buildings, was such an attraction to me.

Near Santo Domingo is a network of cenotes (cave lakes). They are stunning. There will be many photos in upcoming posts.

BLM Supports Slavery

On several occasions during my Back the Blue adventures, I’ve heard BLMers shriek “Buildings are not people!” in reference to accusations of property destruction by BLM rioters. Their general sentiment seems to be that it’s okay to destroy property for the sake of “social justice” and “racial equity.” At any opportunity, they’ll steal our flags – undoubtedly in order to burn later.

This sentiment is confirmed by the following tweets, which are by Antifa supporters, and regarding BLM:

Yes, they believe it’s perfectly acceptable to destroy a man’s property because of his political beliefs. Antifa and BLM clearly consider such destruction to be “hilarious.”

It’s true that the destruction of property is not the same as assault, but it’s still a serious offense. A person’s property is the fruit of his labor. The case in question, where BLMers popped all four (or five?) of an innocent man’s tires, it means that the victim will probably have to have his truck towed, and then have his tires repaired or replaced. This is likely to cost him several hundred dollars – even if he has comprehensive insurance, as he’ll still have to pay the deductible.

For most Americans, these several hundred dollars are the equivalent of several days’ work. In other words, by damaging his property, they’re actually robbing him of his labor.

There’s a word for this: Slavery.

I’m not saying that every time one person damages the property of another, it’s slavery. I think there’s a difference between incidental destruction and systemic destruction.

BLM destruction of property is systemic, because it’s ongoing, part of a larger strategy and tolerated, or even ENCOURAGED, by the power structure. The victim in this case has no recourse. Wisely, he didn’t shoot anybody – but what could he have done?

I don’t think it was smart for the man to expose his truck to BLM savages; he should have parked far away and walked to the protest. But he was certainly within his rights. Now that his labor has been stolen from him, what recourse does he have? The best he can hope for is a police report for his insurance company; nobody will be held accountable for this crime.

So, the next time you see somebody promoting BLM, ask him why he supports slavery.

Ending on a Positive Note

As mentioned, I’m going on vacation soon, so this might be my last post until I return in a few weeks.

Y’all will be pleased to know that we had another Back the Blue rally today, and it went very well. We were not harassed, other than the usual shouts and gestures from the windows of passing cars.

A friend shared the following YouTube video with me, and I hope y’all enjoy it as much as I did:

BLM Crashes Back the Blue Rally in Portland

It was rainy today, so I didn’t bring my (famous) signs. Instead, I came to stand with my friends one last time before my upcoming vacation.

But soon after our arrival, trouble came our way:

My bodycam wasn’t on the correct setting, but what happened after this is I tried to make my way to the lone woman flag-holder to see that she was alright. But they blocked my way, getting in my face and threatening me. After a few a few minutes of scuffling, I told them I simply wanted to escort her out of there and to safety. After that, they let me pass.

As soon as I got to her, one of the commies grabbed her flag. I was only able to save the staff. At that point, an older black woman with a bullhorn came up and told the mob to refrain from assaulting the lady, and that we have the right to rally just as they do. While I appreciated this gesture, I don’t think it was sincere, and it was definitely too little and too late. After all, the entire purpose of their being there was to drive us away – and to DEPRIVE us of our First Amendment rights. Another BLMer, a younger black man, helped escort us to her truck, which was parked right there. He asked the mob to refrain from damaging the truck, and had the vehicles, which were blocking the street, allow us to pass unmolested.

As stated, I’m leaving on vacation soon, so there might not be any new posts for a while.

It’s been a Stressful Day

We shouldn’t worry about things that are out of our control, but I can’t help it; I’m a born worrier, and I really want Trump to win this election.

However, as of this writing, I’m not very optimistic; it’s still a toss-up. What if Trump loses? Here’s something I wrote on American Renaissance recently:

Even if Biden (Harris) wins the presidency, the millions of Trump voters are not going to magically disappear. We’re not going to just roll over and say, “alright then, we’re about to lose our freedoms, but there’s nothing we can do about it until the next election.” No, the Communist elites will have to deal with us. This election has brought the Right together, and it seems to me that we’ve become a lot more organized than before. We need to use this power to assert ourselves, and protect our freedoms on a number of fronts.

Maybe it’s just my own perspective, as this is the first election where I was actually active. But I really do believe that conservatives, in all our political diversity, ethnic backgrounds and national origins, have created something as close to a unifying spirit as is possible. We have networked, honed our organizational skills, cultivated our own intelligentsia, created our own online spaces – and sacrificed our own safety on the streets to fight for what we believe in. Some of us have given their lives for the struggle to defend what remains of America.

In the event of a Biden/Harris presidency, it becomes even more important to strengthen this network, and work with people we might not agree with, even on some important issues. We can save the internal bickering for later, after we have freed ourselves from the Communist tyranny that America is becoming.

Obviously, my hope is that the coming days will bring good news, but even if it’s bad news, let’s harness those feelings of disappointment and apprehension, and use that energy for positive things.

Here are a couple of photos from the most recent Trump Rally I attended, in Gresham, Oregon:

No that last photo is not of Trump himself; it’s actually somebody wearing a Trump mask!
