More Religion, Less Compassion

... is what I'm seeing in regards to the illegal immigrant invasion force making its way through Mexico right now. There was a tweet I was going to use to illustrate this, but it was deleted. Fortunately, the faith community of the progressives is very strong, so it took me less than 5 minutes to find a replacement. Here you go.


Race paranoia trumps compassion for compassion for American workers.

In the old days, progressives cared deeply for the working poor and unemployed, low-skilled Americans. Now, with a couple of battalions of migrant workers on the way who will drive down the wages of said Americans, the working poor are discarded in favor of the holiness that comes from racial diversity or whatever you want to call the cult of racialism these days.

Here's another good one.

Appropriately, it's on some kind of religious analysis site.

Meanwhile, the United States is just about the least racist country in the world.

From this WaPo article.
So the preening on the part of the diversity-mad progs is nothing but angels dancing on the heads of pins while the economics of illegal immigration spells hardship and poverty for unskilled Americans.

Oh well. No price is too high to pay for the salvation that comes from multiculturalism.

    And while the news is full of the "migrant caravan" and the recent mailing of pipe bombs:

    Yesterday, a U.S. Territory with a population of 50,000+ was just flattened by a Category 5 Super Typhoon. Tinian got a direct hit, as did part of Saipan (with the rest of the island getting Category 4 winds, which is still as strong as the strongest part of Hurricane Michael at landfall). I will be very surprised if there are more than a tiny number of structures left intact. Guam was hit by the edges of the typhoon, and is probably in no shape to lend much assistance at the moment.

    And is this in the news? Not really, no. The only reason I saw it was that it was on the weather forecasting sites. It is on the news if you look for it, but it isn't the blaring headline that it deserves. This is a major disaster on US territory affecting US citizens, and as far as the mainland is concerned, it's almost as if it didn't happen. Everybody is too concerned about whatever dumb thing Trump is going to say next.

    Per the parishes doing charity work feeding the caravans (and, given that they're mostly healthy young men, charity work in keeping them from going out to gather food in habitated areas) have been saying the caravan is 14,000 for just the Hondurans since about Saturday. It's probably bigger, now, and there's supposed to be another one forming. Informal reports say that people just keep showing up.

    I haven't heard if they've said where they plan to enter, and I'm not sure I'd trust it if they had-- so there is a very serious possibility that we'll have tens of thousands of military age men charging the fence here in El Paso. I already know what it looks like when just one tire shop catches on fire in Juarez-- if they copy the PA's "make a smoke wall with tires and such" tactic, it could work. I don't have that much ammo, you bet I'm worried.

    Here's news on the typhoon Tim mentions; you may notice that it happened in '15, too, and you probably don't remember much about that, either, because it's hardly ever covered. Back in '05 or so my ship had a running joke-- we did typhoon and even tsunami relief for months on end, digging out the living and the dead, going without showers so we could ship fresh water to shore from our water supply, and what hit the news? When our deck-watch spotted a freaking turtle. (caught in a ghost net; saved and uninjured)
