New Studies Show Severe Racial Discrimination at University of Wisconsin

From CEOUSA.ORG

Tuesday, 13 September 2011 (Madison, WI) Two studies released today by the Center for Equal Opportunity reveal severe discrimination based on race and ethnicity in undergraduate and law school admissions at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, with African Americans and Latinos given preference over whites and Asians.

The studies are based on data supplied by the schools themselves, some of which the university had refused to turn over until a lawsuit was filed by CEO and successfully taken all the way to the state supreme court. The studies were prepared by Dr. Althea Nagai, a research fellow at CEO, and can be viewed on the organization’s website, www.ceousa.org.

CEO president Roger Clegg will answer questions about the studies when they are formally released at a press conference today at 11:00 a.m. at the DoubleTree hotel in Madison—525 W. Johnson St.

The odds ratio favoring African Americans and Hispanics over whites was 576-to-1 and 504-to-1, respectively, using the SAT and class rank while controlling for other factors. Thus, the median composite SAT score for black admittees was 150 points lower than for whites and Asians, and the Latino median SAT score was 100 points lower. Using the ACT, the odds ratios climbed to 1330-to-1 and 1494-to-1, respectively, for African Americans and Hispanics over whites.

For law school admissions, the racial discrimination found was also severe, with the weight given to ethnicity much greater than given to, for example, Wisconsin residency. Thus, an out-of-state black applicant with grades and LSAT scores at the median for that group would have had a 7 out 10 chance of admission and an out-of-state Hispanic a 1 out of 3 chance—but an in-state Asian with those grades and scores had a 1 out of 6 chance and an in-state white only a 1 out of 10 chance.

CEO chairman Linda Chavez noted: “This is the most severe undergraduate admissions discrimination that CEO has ever found in the dozens of studies it has published over the last 15 years.” Chavez also noted: “The studies show that literally hundreds of students applying as undergrads or to the law school are rejected in favor of students with lower test scores and grades, and the reason is that they have the wrong skin color or their parents came from the wrong countries.”

Roger Clegg added: “The latest census figures have dramatically underscored that America is increasingly multiethnic and multiracial. In such country, is simply untenable for our institutions—including public universities—to engage in politically correct but divisive and unfair discrimination.”

The Center for Equal Opportunity recently joined an amicus brief challenging the use of racial preferences at the University of Texas, in a case for which review by the U.S. Supreme Court will be sought this week.

Libs, PCs dodge Muslim school prayer flap

To be clear, the prayers in school is banned by federal and provincial laws. This is not a matter of school boards deciding what is best for their students any more than domestic violence is about a man deciding what is best for his wife, or vice versa as the case sometimes is.

So the answers these politicians are giving is not only cowardly, but actually refusal to enforce laws and laws by the way, which to this day are still being enforced against Christians in Ontario public schools.

“I’m a strong supporter in school boards making those kinds of decisions,” McGuinty said Friday during a campaign stop in Newmarket. “I have faith in the ability of our school boards to manage these kinds of things.”

PC Leader Tim Hudak told Sun News Network’s Roundtable that principals and school boards have the best understanding of their students.

“They know the cultures of their schools,” Hudak said. “(I’ll leave) school boards and principals to make these types of decisions on what’s appropriate … I think that’s the way you approach this.” Continue Reading →

Secret files: Labour lied over Gaddafi… who warned of a holy war if Lockerbie bomber Megrahi died in Scotland

You know, Shakespeare wrote the following about England:

This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle,
This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars,
This other Eden, demi-paradise,
This fortress built by Nature for herself
Against infection and the hand of war,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
Which serves it in the office of a wall
Or as a moat defensive to a house,
Against the envy of less happier lands,—
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.

and below, something he wrote about Rome. Frankly, the second seems more fitting for the first at this time.

O, pardon me, thou bleeding piece of earth,
That I am meek and gentle with these butchers!
Thou art the ruins of the noblest man
That ever lived in the tide of times.
Woe to the hand that shed this costly blood!
Over thy wounds now do I prophesy,
--- Which, like dumb mouths, do ope their ruby lips,
To beg the voice and utterance of my tongue ---
A curse shall light upon the limbs of men;
Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
Shall cumber all the parts of Italy;
Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quarter'd with the hands of war;
All pity choked with custom of fell deeds:
And Caesar's spirit, ranging for revenge,
With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
Cry 'Havoc,' and let slip the dogs of war;
That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
With carrion men, groaning for burial.

  • Devastating stash of documents left in British Ambassador’s residence 
  • Britain gave Libyan secret police questions to interrogate dissidents
  • We even informed Gaddafi how Cobra works and MI6 budget

The startling extent to which Labour misled the world over the controversial release of the Lockerbie bomber is exposed today in top-secret documents obtained by The Mail on Sunday.

In public, senior Ministers from the last Labour Government and the Scottish First Minister have repeatedly insisted that terminally ill Abdelbaset Al Megrahi was freed on compassionate grounds in a decision taken by Scottish Ministers alone.

But the confidential papers show that Westminster buckled under pressure from Colonel Gaddafi, who threatened to ignite a ‘holy war’ if Megrahi died in his Scottish cell.

And despite repeated denials, the Labour Government worked frantically behind the scenes to appease Gaddafi’s ‘unpredictable nature’.

As recently as last month, a spokesman for Scotland’s First Minister Alex Salmond was insisting: ‘The decision was taken on the basis of Scots law and was not influenced by economic, political or diplomatic factors.’

Equally damaging, the documents also suggest that as well as sharing intelligence-gathering techniques, Britain gave Libya hundreds of suggested questions for Islamic militants detained in Libya in 2004.

This will inevitably cause widespread dismay because of the regime’s systematic use of torture during interrogation.

Silencing dissent

The public discussion in Northern Europe that followed the Utøya-massacre in Norway has been characterized by attempts to silence the political opposition.  The popular opinion among the political left in Northern Europe is that Anders Behring Breivik’s monstrosities are a result of toxic and contagious hate speech which led him to murder 77 people.

The past month has witnessed a birth of a new age which is suggestive of a Kafkaesque spirit in Nordic political discourse. The accusers are pointing fingers at people whose names appear in Breivik’s manifesto and in other dubious forums, mainly online. The accused can only fight the accusations by claiming that they cannot control when and where their names appear.

One of the first victims of the new zeitgeist was Jussi Halla-aho a Finnish MP for the The Finns, and whose name appears in Breivik’s 1,500-page manifesto. This led the party secretary of the Social Democratic Party, Mikael Jungner, to demand that Halla-aho resign from his post as the chairman of the parliament’s administration committee.

The chairman of the Left Alliance and the current culture minister of Finland, Paavo Arhinmäki accused many of his fellow MP’s of quietly tolerating hate speech. He added that in the case of the massacre in Norway, “silence is a sign of approval”.

In the light of these comments, it is interesting to note that Arhimäki has been at the forefront of bringing football hooliganism to Finland which is arguably one of the most violent and hateful sub-cultures in Europe.  Arhinmäki was also one of the organizers of Smash Asem and was arrested during a violent demonstration.  The sole purpose of the demonstration was to wreak havoc in Helsinki.

Whether sports or politics, minister Arhinmäki has been one of the protagonists of organized hate speech.

‘Witch-finders already have their sights on me’: David Starkey hits back after causing race storm with Newsnight outburst

From The Daily Mail

  • Writer describes reaction to his Newsnight riot comments as ‘hysterical’

By Daily Mail Reporter

Last updated at 1:48 AM on 20th August 2011

Historian David Starkey has defended his controversial outburst on Newsnight which sparked a racism storm following the riots – by protesting that the subject of race has become unmentionable.

The writer and broadcaster was condemned for commenting on Newsnight that ‘whites have become black’, while appearing to blame the disorder on black ‘gangsta’ culture.

Hitting back at his detractors, he said the reaction to his remarks had been hysterical.

David Starkey sparked anger as he suggested that black 'gangster' culture had become the normDavid Starkey sparked anger as he suggested that black ‘gangster’ culture had become the norm

‘We will not continue, I think, to tolerate being lied to and cheated in the matter of race,’ he wrote in the Daily Telegraph. ‘Instead of ‘not in front of the children’, we want honesty.’

The historian’s original comments prompted hundreds of complaints, with the BBC saying viewers felt his contribution to the programme was ‘inappropriate and racially offensive’.

But Starkey told the newspaper: ‘I thought my appearance on Newsnight was supposed to be part of a wide-ranging discussion about the state of the nation.

 

‘Central to any such discussion, it seems to me, are the successes and failures of integration in Britain in the past 50 years. And it was these that I was trying to address.’

Admitting that his friends agreed his greatest error was mentioning former politician Enoch Powell, whose 1968 Rivers of Blood speech attacked immigration, he added that a legacy of the reaction to Powell had been ‘an enforced silence on the matter of race’.

He wrote: ‘The subject has become unmentionable, by whites at any rate. And any breach has been punished by ostracism and worse.

Questions raised on the modus of the Norwegian police during the slaughter

This is a peculiar one. Several videos have appeared recently that call into question the modus operandi of the Norwegian police during that terrorist attack they had recently in Oslo as well as on that Island. The video below is from a citizen who filmed some of what was going on there. Pay special attention to where the police boat turns around and the Norwegian law enforcement decides to pick another place to land much farther away and lenghtnening the response time as well as costing the deaths of more people at the socialist camp where the shooting took place.

I can’t help but wonder if this is connected in policy to the British police, who now very overtly have a system where police do not put themselves in danger for the British public but instead, wait till it’s all over, presumably to guarantee the safe filling out of insurance reports once the corpses are all cold.

I believe it was Mark Steyn who recently said something like, “The British police now enforce all aspects of British life except actual crime” Truly the sign of a senile civilization. More on that in a future post.

Canadian agency: “Only white people can be, (and are) racist.”

As Blazing says, our tax dollars at work. I just don’t have the adjectives to express my disgust. Clearly we lost the cold war. But this must be fought. Any and all Canadians reading this, please write your MP and Stephen Harper and demand that funding to this agency be stopped immediately. The irony that had some other group published saying that only black people, or Chinese could be racist would be subject to a hate crimes charge will be lost on these totalitarian ideologues.

Your Tax Dollars At Work: Only White People Are Racist Evil Capitalist Exploiters

More on the Philadelphia riots

Some seriously messed up things are happening to my site today. This is the third time I have attempted to post this video, and I can’t be bothered to rewrite the whole opinion part of it again till its fixed. Sorry for the slow posting. It appears as if some totalitarian minded person or group is attempting to restrict my right of expression as well as all of yours here at this site today.

It is interesting though, what the anchor woman thinks is shocking. I would say I thought other things where.

British media in a panic. Desperate to maintain the narrative against all reality and evidence, they wage war on working class indigenous British

Today has been a surreal news-day indeed. The Star compares Tommy Robinson with Hitler and calls the EDL, as does the CBC, racist without bothering to provide a lick of evidence for it, and of course, utterly avoiding any mention of the massive anti-white events of the past week by black people within the UK. Even the ones who made white people strip down in public and rob them of their possessions and dignity.

I guess all they have left is to lie louder and more often and at a higher level. I mean if you repeat it often enough it must be true right? Below, the PM actually making a claim about a group of British patriots who should rightly sue the government for such a remark. I cannot imagine what a group of Muslims who might for example, openly advocate for an overthrow of the British government, regime and system might do if he said that about them.

Of course, we don’t have to imagine. We know what they would do, and so does Cameron, and that is why he would never say it right?

Tommy Robinson, if you are out there and reading, invest in the best lawyer you can find.  Perhaps the EDL can now enjoy the kind of government funding that anti-British Muslim groups have been enjoying under the beard of ‘inter-faith’ groups.

Are you sure they were black?

For the past few decades there has been a slow but consistent shift of how we are expected to view culpability. Most likely because of the memes invented and implanted by the Frankfurt School, but if that is too conspiratorial for us, then just a slow natural shift perhaps due to the raw affluence of our capitalist successes and consequent wealth, leading to extravagances of thought, the idea that we are so much better than everyone else, we must actually be more responsible than everyone else.

The shift of course is one of moving away from anti-racism to genuine racism and calling it anti racism. This happens in lots of ways but the most repugnant is:

The deliberate suppression of any information about racism towards white people, including the sanitization of history in order to make it appear as if only white Europeans are capable of agency and that all other people are acting ‘naturally’ in some manner.

This would be the racism of lower expectations. That non-white people somehow cannot help being what they are, so we must celebrate their cultures at the expense of our own, while simultaneously making our own cultures repugnant to us as well as, in many cases, actually illegal. (Smoking in bars very illegal, hookah in kebab joints, a proud symbol of multiculturalism) We look at our own culture as being a function of choice so we can make our own religions illegal, our habits and vices, (unless they are seen to annoy conservatives) while violating all our own conceptions of natural human rights to accommodate the most primitive cultures we can find and then pay them to live among us, while they break our laws and customs with malice and contempt for all we have created.

One must at all costs avoid the evidence of ones own senses…

in favour of the notion that all ethnic groups get along really well and the only real problem in England are not the non-British people, who often feel no connection with British culture, and indeed have no connection with British history. After all when they form vigilante groups to take the law into their own hands because of a clear and indisputable failure of the British constabulary to defend the property and safety of the people within England (I hesitate to say English people) at the best of times and are actually worse than useless during the riots…

There does seem to be an odd double standard here though. Why is it when non-white people who have no actual British cultural heritage get swords and stand around in a mob racing from place to place to fight other gangs, these people are noble men protecting their culture, their way of life and their families. Listen to the Sikh’s speak about the importance of their temples to them. I agree with them of course, they should have the right to defend them for whatever reasons at all, even if it’s just because it’s where they hide the porn. But the fact that the media makes damn sure that it appears noble when untrained armed men run around looking for a fight so long as they are:

1. Not white

2. Not culturally British in any traditional way

“…We joined these Sikh volunteers in Hansworth as they stood vigil outside their temple…”

And then, you have what the Prime Minister of England himself says about the one group of British ‘youths’ who actually want to defend rule of law, British culture and liberal democracy, the history of the UK and the preservation of it’s people and history, right from the official record of Parliament (Thanks Baron)

The Prime Minister: The hon. Gentleman speaks not only for his constituents, but, frankly, for the whole House in deprecating the English Defence League and all it stands for. On its attempt to say that it will somehow help to restore order, I have described some parts of our society as sick, and there is none sicker than the EDL.

Yep. Those noble Sikhs and Muslims and everyone else showing community spirit and stepping up to the plate to defend their temples and businesses from lawlessness. But the British who actually tried to defend not just their homes but entire communities including all within from rioters and looters? None sicker than they.

Eeyore for Vlad.

 

 

 

London riots: BBC criticised for branding thugs as ‘protesters’

The Telegraph: 

The BBC was criticised for its political correctness last night after continually referring to the yobs rioting across London as “protesters”.

6:30AM BST 09 Aug 2011

Two days after a peaceful protest over the death of suspected gangster Mark Duggan in Tottenham ended, the corporation was still using the term to describe violent looters.

That was despite the fact that hundreds of youths, with no connection to events in Tottenham, had since run riot across the capital.

Theresa May, the Home Secretary, Boris Johnson, the Mayor of London, and police have all condemned the youths as “criminals” whose behaviour is “utterly appalling”. Yet senior BBC presenters and reporters on the ground yesterday continued to describe those behind the violence as “protesters”.

The move sparked a wave of anger from members of the public on Twitter.

Duncan Barkes wrote on the micro-blogging website: “Hello BBC. They are not protesters, are they? Rioters better description. I mean, what’s the cause for the protest?”

Dee Modha said: “This hackney BBC reporter needs to stop calling them protesters. Thugs, hooligans and opportunists are better words.” Continue Reading →

Is this for real?

It appears that gangs of black people are going around in the US and looking for white people to mug, beat, nearly kill and generally assault and for no reason other than that they, the victims, are white.

Many believe that, for some reason, this is not racist. But of course we can guess what would happen if, say, a few university students were to hang a black person in effigy on a tree on a university campus. Not actually target a black person for violence mind you, just do some mischief in a way that could be interpreted as anti-black racism, even though the person being hung, again purely symbolically, was a well known political leader, and infinitely more and worse things had been done to the previous white US leader and no FBI investigations took place as a result.

So whether we think that racism can only be done by white people towards other ethnic groups or not, it appears that this is the defacto application of the term as far as law enforcement goes. This, dear friends, is a recipe for civil war. That real racism becomes systemic, as a ‘cure’ for abstracted racism in the public mind, real or imagined.

My question is, where is the line between isolated incidents and a conspiracy or policy?

There is lots more on Blazing Cat fur.

More Muslim Mayhem in Montreal!

This is the second (albeit thwarted) Islamic inspired terror attack in North America that happened to catch my notice, since the Norwegian horror. Odd that in this story as in the one of the man who planned to attack Ft. Hood (for the second time by a Muslim) no mention of Islam as the motive is made. Go figure. Well if they had ever once visited a Church or had their pictures taken at one, we know what they would have called them now, don’t we?
