May 8, 2019 -- A Quick Run Around the Web

"How to Choose a Carry Belt"--Graham Baates (10 min.)
Advice for the concealed carrier.

     We've allowed whites to be treated as a noxious contaminant in an otherwise pristine population. No insult, no slur, no lie is forbidden. And no matter how outrageously abusive the slander, it can be done publicly with impunity.
          There was a day when I said this only about us Appalachians. There came a day when the assault had expanded to include all white men. Now it's all white people, past and present, and every construct and symbol of our existence. But they should have a care. There's a rock ahead of their showboat, just under the suface, as Heartiste has pointed out.
           Elitist whites have seen street theatre and random violence by adolescents and impulsive underachievers. They haven't seen calm, calculated and implacable countermoves by the capable and determined. Now that engine is ticking over. Remember who turned the key.
      • The shooters don't advance the media narrative. The female shooter was actually a tranny that was trying to change from female to male (which is why early reports misidentified her as being "male"). Also, the shooters motives seem to have been anti-Christian. Erickson has a history of posting pro-gay, anti-Christian messages on social media. The car that police towed from the scene had "F***Society," "666", and a pentagram painted on it. 
      • The shooting highlights that our safety is dependent on what we do, not the state. Specifically, some of the male students attacked one of the shooters in an attempt to stop the shooting (one of these brave youth, Kendrick Castillo, died of gunshot wounds).
      • "Lock Your Damn Doors- 2019 Edition"--Active Response Training. Greg Ellifritz gives a new roundup of burglary and theft statistics involving homes and autos, looking at whether doors were locked. Basically, the biggest thing you can do to prevent a theft or burglary is to lock your doors and make sure your windows are closed. Also, be careful about opening the door to strangers: "Ringing reptile: Gator rings doorbell at Myrtle Beach home." From the news story:
              When Karen Alfano heard her doorbell ring unexpectedly, she might have wondered whether it was someone selling religion or magazines. 
               Instead, Alfano found a six-and-a-half-foot alligator at the front door of her Myrtle Beach home. 
                  As a responsible gun owner and CHL holder, should you seek training – and practice regularly– so you can effectively discharge your responsibility for you and your loved ones? Sure. You bet.
                    But do we need another legal hurdle erected to make it even harder to exercise this particular enumerated right? Absolutely not.
              • The Gods of the Copybook Headings return:
              • "Tourist warning as lethal cases of BUBONIC PLAGUE put Mongolia on high alert"--RT. In prior posts about bubonic plague and the Black Death (see, e.g., here and here), I noted that there are researchers that theorize that what made the Black Death so much more lethal than modern outbreaks of plague was the particular strain--a strain found in marmots in Central Asia. So, we might get to see if the theory is true, because the article reports: "Two citizens of Mongolia have died of the highly contagious disease. They reportedly became infected after eating contaminated marmot meat and organs." 
              • More: "Plague deaths reported in western Mongolia"--Outbreak News. This article reports that the two dead were a married couple. Also: "The deaths prompted a quarantine of passengers onboard the same flight from Bayan, Uglii and Khovd. A total of 158 people who came directly or indirectly into contact with the couple are ‘under supervision’."
                Decades of reports have shown that you can only depend on two things to stop an enemy. They are convinced psychologically to discontinue their behavior, or they are instantly stopped by compromising the musculoskeletal system or catastrophic trauma to the nervous system. Blood loss and cardiovascular trauma take too long to be effective in most cases of defensive shootings.
                         OVER THE PAST few years, speculation has risen around whether North Korea or any other nation could detonate a nuclear weapon over the United States that would create an electromagnetic pulse and knock out all electricity for weeks or months. This doomsday hypothesis has been promoted by a former CIA director, a commission set up by Congress, and a book by newsman Ted Koppel. But a sober new engineering study by industry experts finds that key equipment on the grid can be protected from any such EMP. Even if it could happen, the resulting blackouts would affect a few states but wouldn't turn the US into a backdrop for The Walking Dead.
                           The study, by the Electric Power Research Institute, a utility-funded research organization, finds that existing technology can protect various components of the electric grid to buffer it from the effects of solar flares, lightning strikes, and an EMP from a nuclear blast all at the same time: a three-for-one surge protector. “We have a strong technical basis for what the impacts [of an EMP] might be,” says Randy Horton, EPRI project manager and author of the report being released today. “That is one thing that didn’t exist before.”
                            Horton says that EPRI technicians worked with experts at the Department of Energy labs at Los Alamos and Sandia to simulate some effects of an EMP on substations and distribution systems. They also did real-world testing of electrical equipment at an EPRI laboratory in Charlotte, North Carolina. The study, which took three years to complete, looks at the effects of three kinds of energy spawned by a nuclear detonation.

                      "Worldwide Multipolar Cyber-War"--Classiarius (4 min.)

                      Many African children are stunted (notably small for their age) partly because they do not get enough micronutrients such as Vitamin A. Iron deficiency is startlingly common. In Senegal a health survey in 2017 found that 42% of young children and 14% of women are moderately or severely anaemic. Poor nutrition stunts brains as well as bodies. Animal products are excellent sources of essential vitamins and minerals. Studies in several developing countries have shown that giving milk to schoolchildren makes them taller. Recent research in rural western Kenya found that children who regularly ate eggs grew 5% faster than children who did not; cow's milk had a smaller effect.
                      • Civil War 2.0 is already here:
                             The Atlantic reports that Instagram and its parent company Facebook has banned a number of conservative personalities from its platforms, including Infowars host Alex Jones, Infowars contributor and YouTube star Paul Joseph Watson, journalist and activist Laura Loomer, and Milo Yiannopoulos. Louis Farrakhan was notably also banned from the platforms at the same time.
                              Paul Joseph Watson confirmed his ban, claiming he has not broken Facebook’s rules, and commenting, “In an authoritarian society controlled by a handful of Silicon Valley giants, all dissent must be purged.”
                        • Censorship of politically incorrect thought by Facebook is not limited to just the United States: "Far-right Facebook networks removed before Spain election"--EU Observer. The groups were Unidad Nacional Espanola (Spanish National Unity), Todos contra Podemos (Everyone against Podemos) and Lucha por Espana (Fight for Spain). They are accused of having "created multiple and duplicate accounts whose pages peddled messages against Muslims, the LGBTI community, immigrants, and women."
                                 The Muslim American Society (MAS) Islamic Center in Philadelphia posted the video to its Facebook page celebrating "Ummah Day" in which young children wearing Palestinian scarves sang and read poetry about killing for Allah and the mosque in Jerusalem.
                                   The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), a watchdog group, alerted Fox News to the video.
                                    "These are not isolated incidents; they are happening in major centers of the country – including in Pennsylvania," MEMRI said in a statement.
                                      In the video, translated by MEMRI, kids can be heard singing: "The land of the Prophet Muhammad's Night Journey is calling us. Our Palestine must return to us."
                                       One girl talks about martyrs sacrificing their lives without hesitation to conquer Jerusalem.
                                          "We will defend the land of divine guidance with our bodies, and we will sacrifice our souls without hesitation," a second girl says. "We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque. We will lead the army of Allah fulfilling His promise, and we will subject them to eternal torture."
                                      Don't worry, though. MAS has not had its Facebook account suspended.
                                              In an interview with Polish media at the weekend, Jean-Claude Juncker rejected the idea that the surge at the ballot box for national populist parties predicted next month would slow the progress of the globalist EU integration process.
                                                “In these elections, those who promote foolish nationalism will pay the price for it,” the European Commission president threatened, crowing: “Nobody knows this, but last time I rejected the candidacies of six of the Commissioners presented to me by national governments”.
                                                  “Do remember that governments merely propose commissioners. It is the president of the Commission who accepts them and allocates their responsibilities,” the unelected bureaucrat boasted.
                                                    Pope Francis made a strong new push for globalism on Thursday, calling for a supranational, legally constituted body to enforce United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and implement “climate change” policies. 
                                                      Speaking to members of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences in the Vatican’s Apostolic Palace, the Pope said: “When a supranational common good is clearly identified, there is need for a special legally constituted authority capable of facilitating its implementation.” 
                                                        “Think of the great contemporary challenges of climate change, new slavery and peace,” he told members of the Pontifical Academy, who are meeting this week at the Vatican for a plenary session themed: “Nation, State, Nation-State.” 
                                                    In an explosive new report Thursday, The New York Times admitted that multiple "informants" were used in the FBI's "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into the Trump campaign in 2016 -- and that can only mean one thing. Inconvenient truths about the CIA and FBI's espionage campaign against Team Trump are about to break loose and some complicit Deep State actors are trying to get ahead of the narrative.
                                                      Read the whole thing.
                                                                According to the Times, “Ms. Turk” posed as Stephan Halper’s research assistant. Halper is the professor who “kept tabs” on the Trump campaign by “staying in touch” with campaign aides George Papadopoulos, Carter Page, and Sam Clovis. In reality, it seems, “Turk” was sent by the Obama FBI to help Halper “keep tabs” on Trump’s campaign.
                                                                  Halper was known to associates as “The Walrus.” So it looks like the CIA used the team of “Turk and The Walrus” to spy on Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
                                                            A field experiment was performed in Oak Ridge, TN, with four instrumented towers placed over grass at increasing distances (4, 30, 50, 124, and 300 m) from a built-up area. Stations were aligned in such a way to simulate the impact of small-scale encroachment on temperature observations. As expected [!!!]\, temperature observations were warmest for the site closest to the built environment with an average temperature difference of 0.31 and 0.24 °C for aspirated and unaspirated sensors respectively. Mean aspirated temperature differences were greater during the evening (0.47 °C) than day (0.16 °C). This was particularly true for evenings following greater daytime solar insolation (20+ MJDay−1) with surface winds from the direction of the built environment where mean differences exceeded 0.80 °C. The impact of the built environment on air temperature diminished with distance with a warm bias only detectable out to tower-B’ located 50 meters away.
                                                                      However, those people have nowhere to go in Africa, and nothing to hope for.  The continent is cursed with a chronically low-IQ population.  They're largely unschooled by Western standards;  and even if their educations were better, there are few if any local jobs that would require that sort of learning, and pay a commensurate salary.  There's little industrial development in Africa beyond mines and government infrastructure, and those need cheap labor rather than skilled workers.  There's no social security or welfare network in Africa, because countries on that continent by and large can't afford to provide one;  so, if you have no work, you starve, or turn to crime.  China has spent billions on the economic colonization of Africa, but has done so by importing her own workers to that continent, rather than educating, training and using local staff.  That's not likely to change anytime soon.  (I wrote about the immensity of Africa's problems a few weeks ago in more detail, if you're interested.)

                                                                         The inevitable result of this lack of opportunity, and intense competition between the multitudes of younger Africans for the few scraps that are available, has meant a veritable invasion of Europe by people desperate to grasp at any opportunity - legal or not - for something better.  A street-sweeper or garbage worker or manual laborer in Europe will earn more in real terms, and have far better economic prospects, than the average school-teacher or government bureaucrat or miner in Africa.  This is what's fueling the influx of so-called "refugees" through Libya and other northern African nations to the southern nations of Europe, across the Mediterranean Sea.  Non-governmental organizations opposed to concepts such as national borders are aiding and abetting this flood.  What's more, it's reached the borders of the USA as well.  We're going to see more and more of it here.

                                                                          Of course, we can't afford to allow this invasion to overwhelm our economy.  We can't provide for the millions of desperate "refugees" (in reality, economic migrants) from South America who are already overwhelming our border facilities by the millions every single year.  We certainly can't provide for an even greater influx of desperate Africans - yet they're going to keep on coming, because they have no other hope and nothing to go back to in Africa.
                                                                    Read the whole thing.

The article reports that "[a]t their talks in Budapest on Thursday, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini agreed on the importance of strong nation states, on the need to give priority in Europe to European culture based on Christian values, and on border defence." The article also indicates that Orban and Salvini are suggesting that the EU should not have any further say in immigration.
