NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON AS OF LATE

With virtually blanket coverage of events everywhere, posted on You Tube, X, Tik Tok, and hundreds of other social media platforms, its hard to put this into perspective. For the first time in history we are looking at the world through an electronic microscope. Every murder, kidnapping, hit and run, robbery, rape, fraud, you name it, we are seeing them almost as they happen.

Because of this relatively recent phenomenon, its hard to judge if the world is actually that much more dangerous, or are we just being made aware of something that has always been there but couldn’t see it. I live in a small town in comparison to a large urban area, so I rarely witness any criminal activity myself, but the local newspapers chronicle nefarious activities which in comparison to a large city are pretty minor.

Allow me to bring this into focus. Prior to Rudy Giuliani taking over as mayor of New York City in 1994, the city was out of control. Crime was absolutely “over the top”. Through heavy handed policing and harsh criminal penalties, he cleaned it up and made the streets safe again. Chicago has always been a crime ridden nightmare. Back in the thirties and forties, Los Angeles was notorious for gang activity. Look up “Zoot Suiters”.

AI Overview – copied from Google.com search engine

The history of “zoot-suiters” is tied to a distinctive 1940s fashion trend that grew into a symbol of rebellion and ethnic pride, particularly for Mexican Americans and African Americans. The trend sparked intense backlash, especially during World War II, due to the suits’ use of fabric, which was seen as unpatriotic. This led to the 1943 Zoot Suit Riots, a series of violent clashes between servicemen and civilians against zoot-suiters in Los Angeles. 

Origins and cultural significance

• The zoot suit originated in New York and Chicago in the late 1930s, adapted from the British “drape” suit and popularized by African American communities and jazz musicians. 

It featured high-waisted, baggy pants that were pegged at the ankle and long, oversized jackets with wide lapels.  For young Mexican American men in Los Angeles, the suit became a symbol of their “pachuco” subculture, representing a distinct identity and defiance of “Juan Crow” laws and discrimination.  It was seen as a statement of style, swagger, and rebellion against societal norms and authority. 

Wartime controversy and the Zoot Suit Riots

• During World War II, the suits were criticized by the white press and servicemen as wasteful and unpatriotic because of the large amount of fabric they required. 

Zoot-suiters were often accused of being draft dodgers.  Tensions between servicemen and zoot-suiters, particularly Mexican American youth, boiled over in the summer of 1943.  The Zoot Suit Riots occurred over several days in June 1943, during which mobs of servicemen and white civilians attacked zoot-suiters in Los Angeles.  The violence, which went largely unchecked by police who often arrested the victims, highlighted deep-seated racial tensions and discrimination in American society. 

Aftermath and legacy

• The zoot suit riots are recognized as a significant event in Chicano history and racial unrest in the United States. 

The legal convictions in the related Sleepy Lagoon murder case, which disproportionately targeted Mexican American youths, were eventually overturned, but the case fueled anti-Mexican American sentiment.  The zoot suit has continued to reappear in popular culture, most notably during the Chicano Rights Movement in the 1960s and as a retro fashion in the 1990s. 

WHAT’S DIFFERENT???

This is part speculation, and part opinion on my part. We still have the quintessential Mexican and Black gangs roaming the streets causing trouble, likely not going to change anytime soon. But thanks to our brilliant Democrat politicians who thought it would be a grand idea to let every low life criminal in the world take up residence in the good ol’ USA, we now have another problem. These so-called immigrants / asylum seekers came carrying the flags and banners of their home countries. These young men were coming to establish a “beach head,” to establish a new homeland, not to become Americans. Thus, they have no intention of obeying US laws and customs. Their lack of respect for women is manifesting itself in child molestation and rape. Because a lot of this is happening in the communities they have established, only a portion of these crimes ever gets punished.

Next, we have a potential disaster waiting to happen due to the growing number of Islamic immigrants. These people have their sites on conquering America. Don’t believe me? Look into it for yourselves. They have no desire to become Americans, that is 180 degrees opposed to their religious beliefs.

Beware of those who go to great lengths to make it sound like Islam is the religion of peace and call anyone that disagrees an “Islamaphobe”. If that were the case, the middle east would not be in a constant state of warfare. There are thousands of Muslims living in America who desire to live under Sharia law as opposed to the laws of the United States. If this is difficult for you to grasp, look at what is happening in England, France and Germany. Muslims are burning churches and Cathedrals in Europe, and raping European women and girls. This is not hearsay, look into for yourselves. You are not going to get the truth by looking for this information on Google, Wikipedia or other left leaning sites.

Google tries to water down this report, but reading between the lines, a lot of strife and stress is being caused simply by these people being who they are and unwilling to adapt to English laws and customs. They want England to be transformed into Syria or some other Muslim hell hole.

AI Overview

There is no official category of “Islamic crime” in England, as the country’s legal system addresses crimes based on secular law, not religious affiliation

. However, specific crimes in England have been committed by individuals motivated by interpretations of Islam. These include terrorist acts by Islamic extremists, so-called “honor”-based abuse, and vigilantism, such as the “Muslim Patrols”. 

Terrorism related to Islamic extremism

• The UK’s intelligence service, MI5, reported in 2023 that 75% of its counter-terrorism caseload was focused on Islamist threats.
• The Counter Terrorism Police network also reported that in 2023, 80% of its live investigations were related to Islamist extremism.
• Since the 2000s, most major terror attacks in the UK have been linked to Islamist extremism.
• The government’s Prevent strategy, which aims to counter radicalization, has historically received a significant portion of its referrals for concerns related to Islamist extremism, though recent data indicates a more even split with right-wing radicalization. 

“Honor”-based abuse and violence

• “Honor”-based abuse (HBA) refers to violent or coercive behavior used to control individuals who are believed to have shamed their family or community. In the UK, it is estimated that one woman or girl is killed each month in the name of “honor”.
• Such crimes can include forced marriage, female genital mutilation, and murder.
• While not specific to any one religion, HBA in the UK is largely seen within certain South Asian and Middle Eastern families, with some cases linked to extremist interpretations of Islam. 

Vigilantism and “Sharia patrols”

• In the 2010s, groups of self-styled “Muslim patrols” operated in parts of East London, intimidating and harassing individuals for perceived violations of Islamic law.
• Members of these patrols were filmed confronting people for drinking alcohol, dressing in certain ways, and other actions they deemed un-Islamic.
• The individuals involved were arrested and prosecuted for their illegal actions. Their actions were condemned by the wider Muslim community and Islamic organizations, such as the East London Mosque. 

Hate crimes against Muslims

• Muslims are also disproportionately the victims of crime in England. According to Home Office data for the year ending March 2025, Muslims were the target in 45% of all religious hate crimes recorded by police, despite making up only a small fraction of the population.
• Incidents of Islamophobia, including verbal abuse, vandalism, and physical attacks, have surged in recent years, often correlating with real-world events and inflammatory rhetoric.

In my opinion, it’s getting harder and harder to get a true reading on what is happening, because the keepers of the facts are not reliable players. It’s likely to get even tougher with the gate keepers of truth not even being human beings. Everyone is going to have to be diligent in seeking out the real truth. But trust me, its going to get harder and harder. The reporters of truth will likely become targets of censorship or out and out banishment. The “No Kings” protestors are barking up the wrong tree.

God Bless you all. Stay safe and always seek the truth in all things.
