The Surprising Fact About Minneapolis’ Sky-High Homicide Rate

Last year, as riots, looting, and anarchy erupted on the streets of Minneapolis in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police, the city saw its homicide rate skyrocket from 48 murders in 2019 to 84 last year. Things haven’t improved in Minneapolis this year, and the city could end up seeing the most murders in its history, surpassing the 97 homicides recorded in 1995. There’ve been at least 67 homicides in the city in 2021, but as PBS and the Star-Tribune newspaper report, the crime is concentrated in just a handful of the city’s neighborhoods.

The Horrors of the Holodomor Must Not Be Forgotten

The man-made famine has been buried from the beginning — and not just by its perpetrators.

Maria Katchmar was 7 when the troops came to her farm.

The soldiers entered her home in Cherkasy Oblast — a region of Ukraine along the Dnieper River — and immediately began to break everything. Windows and doors. Paintings and linens. Even pots for cooking. Her father was ordered to drown his livestock. When he refused, he was sent to Siberia — and the Soviet troops confiscated the animals anyway.

With the family’s two cows, chickens, and pigs gone, Maria’s mother left to find food, leaving her 10 children to fend for themselves for nearly a month.

Apple emerges as a villain in China, shutting down iPhone apps that help protestors

With China’s communist oligarchs tightening their grip on power as anti-COVID lockdown protests erupt across that country, who should step in to help the detested regime but wokester Apple, one of the most virtue-signally of all companies in the Silicon Valley.

Under the Great Reset you’ll be a robot or a ‘useless eater’

AS FAR as social engineers are concerned, efficiency, precision and consistency are not human traits. Two prominent men, a century apart, have sought to override the flaws of nature by making us more mechanistic. The current reformer of Homo sapiens is Yuval Noah Harari, to whom I will return, but cold and clinical manipulation of manpower began in the early 20th century.

Now fashion retailer Simons promotes euthanasia

After Balenciaga, more publicity campaigns are taking a disturbing turn

Fashion has been smashing taboos since Coco Chanel first marketed trousers to women after World War I. But today there are very few norms left to assault in pursuit of publicity-generating controversy. So perhaps we shouldn’t be surprised to find the rag trade venturing into truly taboo territory: paedophilia and now suicide — albeit with a fig-leaf of liberal proceduralism, in its guise as medically-assisted voluntary euthanasia.

‘The climate extremists have won’

Michael Shellenberger on the global elites’ embrace of climate apocalypticism.

Climate activism seems to be becoming increasingly hysterical. Creepy apocalyptic cults, like Just Stop Oil and Animal Rebellion, have rarely been off the front pages in recent weeks. Worse still, their end-is-nigh worldview now seems to be openly endorsed by media, government and international institutions. What is going on? Why are climate activists becoming madder and yet more mainstream? And what exactly do they want?

Trudeau urges Canadian public to start ‘accepting and learning from’ drag queens in TV appearance

Degenerate.

“As I noted earlier this month in this space, Canadians were again made proud by their costume-loving leader when Prime Minister Justin Trudeau decided to make an appearance on “Canada’s Drag Race,” with the trailer showing him nearly shivering with delight that he could make such a statement. The appearance has now been released online and it was, if possible, worse than one might have thought. “

University of Idaho murders: Cops believe killer ‘proud of’ the ‘brutal weapon’

The father of one of the four victims in the Nov. 13. University of Idaho stabbings says his daughter suffered “large punctures” from a “brutal weapon.”

Steve Goncalves — father of slain Kaylee Goncalves, 21 — said he learned a little more about who the police believe is responsible for the attack Tuesday.

“The detective said this weapon is probably something [the killer] paid money for and something that they’re proud of,” he told ABC news in his first on-screen interview.

He also vented his upset that the killer is “having a great life out there, and [we’re] just left in shambles.”

A Lament for a Nation, or Bye-Bye Miss Canadian Pie

It is very hard to maintain one’s composure when speaking to ordinary Canadians about the disaster in the making that is Canada today. I have engaged personally and via email over the last two years with literally hundreds of my fellow countrymen from all walks of life on the subjects of the national debt, the deficit, the sunsetting of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the draconian and illegal Covid and vaccine mandates and the turbo maladies that flow from them, the various repressive bills sieving through Parliament, the vicious and lying government and media campaign against the Trucker Freedom Convoy, and the unconscionable behavior of the most vindictive, incompetent and unpatriotic prime minister in the history of Confederation.
