Texas mall shooter and what we now know



The Texas shooter who murdered eight people and injured six more at the Allen Premium Outlets was a 33-year-old Latino who worked as a security guard. He will hereafter be referred to as Scum Crumpet because he deserves no mention by his name, and others who think of following in his bloody footsteps should  understand that they will gain no fame for evil deeds.

Crumpet wore a tactical vest and was armed with a handgun and rifle, Other weapons were also found in his car. officials said.

His home, located in northeast Dallas, was raided by the FBI on Saturday night where Crumpet lived with his parents who spoke little to no English and needed a translator.

According to the media, Crumpet "had no serious [serious?] criminal record and was working as a security guard." But did he have a frivolous criminal record--this is not clear.

He drove a Dodge Charger and was staying at a motel days prior to his rampage.

Among his victims were three children and of the nine victims, the ages ranged from 5 to 61 who were transported to local hospitals, the Allen PD reported. They said the shooter acted alone and was killed at the scene where other agencies also responded, including the ATF and Texas DPS.

The huge mall is  located 25 miles north of Dallas and has over 120 stores.

Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott (R) issued a statement following the shooting saying that he has been in contact with the Allen mayor and Texas DPS director.

“Our hearts are with the people of Allen, Texas tonight during this unspeakable tragedy,” Abbott said. “I have been in contact with Mayor Fulk and DPS Director McCraw as well as other state and local leaders and offered the full support of the State of Texas to local officials to ensure all needed assistance and resources are swiftly deployed, including DPS officers, Texas Rangers, and investigative resources.”

President Biden went into "knee-jerk mode" issuing a statement about gun control and how his heart goes out and yadda, yadda.

The evil guns were taken into custody where they will await trial.

Latino, Latina, Latinx: Hispanics ready to kick a word into the woke trash bin



It isn't about the minorities the left claims they want to help; it's about the left feeling good about themselves in spite of how minorities [aka the victim class according to the left] feel about the "help" they didn't ask for and generally don't need. 

Native Americans [not including Elizabeth Warren] never voiced a negative reaction to sports teams that with names that referred to them such as the Washington Redskins or the Cleveland Indians, for example. It only became an issue when woke White leftists brought it up as if it was a racist term, and then some Native Americans suddenly saw it as such, because 25 percent of any group of people are boobs with no exceptions. 

For the left, racism is their Swiss Army knife, Kurt Schlichter and others have said.

Rather than going against the woke flow, the Washington Redskins eventually became the Washington Football Team [what creativity] and the Cleveland Indians became the Cleveland Guardians. As a basehall team, one has to wonder just what it is they are guarding--their balls? Their bats?

So while some groups caved to the demands of white woke supremacists who got their demands fulfilled, several Latino organizations are now demanding to effectively cancel the use of the bull crap term "Latinx" in official documents etc., because it isn't a word as far as the people it pretends to refer to see it.

Virtually no one in the Latino community cares a fig for the pretentious 'gender-neutral' term. Spanish, like many other languages, use gender-specific terms and it's insulting for elite progressives to change it and elected officials, and the oldest Latino civil rights organizations in America, and the Miami Herald has spoken out against the term to describe people of Spanish-speaking origin.

The results of their anger is being seen in the way Latino voters have moved away from the Democratic Party, which is a deep matter of concern as their voting block grows much larger. It shows how Latinos want to self-define rather than have outsiders define them. 

Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), head of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus’ campaign arm, announced last month his congressional staff is not to use “Latinx” in official communications.

Days after Gallego’s tweet, Domingo GarcĂ­a, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens, instructed staff and board members to drop the word “Latinx” from the group’s official communications, NBC Latino’s Suzanne Gamboa reported.

The Miami Herald, a left-leaning tabloid, wrote in an editorial last month that liberals needed to stop using the term primarily because it wasn’t popular with Latinos, but more importantly, that it helped the GOP make inroads with the Latino community, especially in Florida, a critical battleground state.

The Latino community is finally beginning to see that Democrats would rather be "woke" than be concerned about them.

Ted Cruz destroys Ilhan Omar over deleted tweet on immigration


Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) did not allow Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) get away with a tweet she deleted that suggests that Hispanics aren't intelligent enough to qualify for a merit-based immigration system.

The Texas Senator went after Omar on Twitter Tuesday and said, “As the son of a Cuban immigrant whose Dad came to get a math degree & become a computer programmer, I’m troubled that Dems seem to believe Hispanic immigrants can’t qualify for skills-based legal immigration. Bringing in more scientists, engineers & doctors is good for US jobs." https://t.co/iugniZgJtL

Omar's tweet was posted Tuesday saying, “A “merit based” immigration policy is fueled by racism towards the Latinx community.”

She continued by asserting immigration policies shouldn't be based on “discrimination, fear, or bigotry,” which is, of course, a non sequitur.

The Daily Wire's Ryan Saavedra also got into the mix and tweeted:

Omar, a blatant anti-Semite,  faced immediate backlash  on social media with many across the political aisle. It was rightly pointed out that her tweet was racist and suggested Latino immigrants would be incapable of acclimating to a merit-based system.

Her tweet came in knee-jerk response to President Trump’s new immigration proposal which he unveiled earlier this month.

The president’s new system will secure the border completely, implement a merit-based immigration system, reform the asylum process, protect American workers, and increase diversity within American society, like most other developed nations do.

If they're not white, it can't be racism. Really?

"Hamilton" cast

"Hamilton," the Broadway musical that won kudos for casting black and Latino performers, is being questioned regarding its hiring practices as they might be in violation of New York City Human Rights Law. 

Specifically, the casting notice clearly seeks "non-white" performers to play the white founding fathers of America. One critic said the musical takes a story that "valorizes dead white guys" and replaces them with black, Latino and multi-ethnic performers to play those roles.

Isn't that similar, in a way, to those people who claim to be war heroes but have never actually served in the military? It's called stolen valor and actual war veterans are appalled by it.

As "Hamilton" plans to expand to other cities, the casting notice calling for "non'white" performers is being questioned by civil rights attorney Randolph McLaughlin.
Jeffrey Seller and his husband

"What if they put an ad out that said, 'Whites only need apply?'" McLaughlin said. "Why, African-Americans, Latinos, Asians would be outraged."

He believes the ad violates the New York City Human Rights Law making it unlawful "for an employer . . . because of the actual written or perceived . . . race of any person, to discriminate."

"You cannot advertise showing that you have a preference for one racial group over another," McLaughlin said. "As an artistic quiestion, sure, he can cast whomever he wants to cast, but he has to give every actor eligible for the role an opportunity to try."

Even Actors Equity, the Broadway union says, " . . . producers agree that auditions for all productions . . . will be conducted in such a manner as to provide full and fair consideration to actors of all ethnicities."

But Actors Equity approved of the language in the casting notice.

Why?

Because it's only racism when it comes from white people.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to discover that McLaughlin is labeled a racist because of his concerns over the obvious racism of the casting notice.

The show's producter Jeffrey Seller defended the diversity of the "Hamilton" cast and the legality of the "non-white" casting notice. "I stand by it and believe it to be legal," he said, believing that legality equates to morality and ethics.


Alexander Hamilton
The city Commission on Human Rights claims it hasn't received a formal complaint about the ad, nor would they say if they're investigating. Probably not since this has nothing to do with which bathrooms people are allowed to use.

According to CBS2, the city has fined restaurants for advertising for "busboys" and "waitresses" rather than using the gender neutral terms "bus help" and "wait staff."

As a New York City male chromosome person, born and bred, I will not be attending "Hamilton." 

Does that make me a racist? If so, please don't tell my wife--she isn't white.

Hillary Clinton #NotMiAbuela--gracias a Dios

"Hola, senora. Que pasa?"
Liberals can't help it. They have to look at people in racial, gender or religious affiliation terms and play to that in order to win them over. Often it works, but this time it backfired.

Hillary Clinton's campaign tried to sway Latino voters with her latest campaign post. The campaign's "7 ways Hillary Clinton is just like your abuela" [Spanish for 'grandmother') plays up to the ethnic stereotypes Democrats use to demonize Republicans, but all it did this time was piss off many people on social media.

The campaign's attempt to trick Latino voters came the same day that Hillary's daughter, Chelsea, announced she was pregnant with Clinton's second grandchild. But this feeble attempt was immediately ridiculed by online users as a poor stereotype with basic Spanish vocabulary and Hillary posing with singer Marc Anthony to show how cool she is [not].

The campaign post said: "It's no secret that Hillary is loving her role as grandma. And she was thrilled to learn that next summer, her granddaughter Charlotte will have a sibling to play with."

It is also no secret (unless you only get your news from MSNBC) that Hillary broke the law with her private email server which accepted Top Secret correspondence, and allowed 4 men to die in Benghazi due to her incompetence. 

But that isn't what my post is all about.

The campaign then used the word respeto many times (respect in Spanish) and goes on to say about Donald Trump that she has one word for him: "Basta! Enough!" Then it ends with "Everybody loves abuela--even this guy," showing the Scandal Queen with Anthony.

Twitter users began expressing their disgust with the hastags #NotMiAbuela or #NotMyAbuela.

Hillary did the same "abuela" move two months ago in another post entitled: "6 cosas que no sabias sobre Hillary Clinton."

Of course this means: "6 reasons you should not for Hillary Clinton sober."
