More lovely musings from Pat

[oviedodem]

This is a short clip from his June 26th Blog entry. In fact, if you read most of his stuff there is always the mentioning of race & diversity. At the end of this post he is actually arguing against diversity.

Demographically, California is where America will be in 2040.

White folks, who are leaving California as they did in the millions in the 1990s, are below half the population. Hispanics, their numbers surging due to legal and illegal immigration, are well over a third of the population. The African-American share of California’s population is also falling, as the Asian share is rising, again from immigration.

Los Angeles, which is what most large American cities will look like, is the most diverse city on earth. Has diversity been a strength?

In the prisons and jails, and among the scores of thousands in street gangs and the underclass, a black-brown civil war is underway.

In October 2006, the Financial Times reported the findings of the famed author of “Bowling Alone” on what diversity has wrought:

“A bleak picture of the corrosive effects of ethnic diversity has been revealed in research by Harvard University’s Robert Putnam, one of the world’s most influential political scientists. His research shows that the more diverse a community is, the less likely its inhabitants are to trust anyone — from their next-door neighbor to the mayor.”

“In the presence of diversity, we hunker down,” said Putnam. “We act like turtles. The effect of diversity is worse than had been imagined. And it’s not just that we don’t trust people who are not like us. In diverse communities, we don’t trust people who do look like us.”

“Professor Putnam,” said the Financial Times, “found trust was lowest in Los Angeles, ‘the most diverse human habitation in human history.’”

Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan carried California nine times. But the state is now a fiefdom of liberalism. John McCain’s share of the vote was smaller than Barry Goldwater’s. California today believes in Big Government, open borders, diversity, multiculturalism and the politics of compassion. But what liberalism has wrought in California, its native-born are fleeing.

Still, where California is at, America is headed.

Californians who are running away from the communities and towns in which they were raised have Arizona, Idaho, Colorado, Utah and Nevada to head to. But when all of America arrives at where California is at today, where do the Americans run to?

1. Poor Pat, white flight has to stop at the oceans. No, he doesn't

want diversity. He wants a mostly white country with a sprinkling of color to do the housework and lawn care.

3. I'm afraid Pat is losing it. He is mixing his variables. He's an idiot.

His argument that because Los Angeles is diverse in terms of it's races and nationalities, then that diversity is the cause of more crime and less trust. In reality, it's probably because it's just like any other large city when it comes to crime and a lack of trust between inhabitants.

His argument is like saying that my dog stayed in a large kennel and there's a lot of noise in the kennel, so everywhere my dog stays there will be a lot of noise.

What an idiot.
