Iowa Versus Louisiana


When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa , because that's the way God wants it?

Just a personal observation...as I watched the news coverage of the massive flooding in the Midwest with over 100 blocks of the city of Cedar Rapids, Iowa under water, levees breaking, and the attention now turned downstream for when this massive amount of water hits the Mississippi, what amazed me is not what we saw, but what we didn't see...

1. We don't see looting.
2. We don't see street violence.
3. We don't see people sitting on their rooftops waiting for the government to come and save them.
4. We don't see people waiting on the government to do anything.
5. We don't see Hollywood organizing benefits to raise money for people to rebuild.
6. We don't see people blaming President Bush.
7. We don't see people ignoring evacuation orders.
8. We don't see people blaming a government conspiracy to blow up the levees as the reason some have not held.
9. We don't see the US Senators or the Governor of Iowa crying on TV.
10. We don't see the Mayors of any of these cities complaining about the lack of state or federal response.
11. We don't see or hear reports of the police going around confiscating personal firearms so only the criminal will be armed.
12. We don't see gangs of people going around and randomly shooting at the rescue workers.
13. You don't see some leaders in this country blaming the bad behavior of the Iowa flood victims on 'society' (of course there is no wide spread reports of lawlessness to require excuses).


Where are all of the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help in restoring Iowa and helping the folks affected by the floods?

Where is all the media asking the tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved the problem? Asking where the FEMA trucks (and trailers) are?

Why isn't the Federal Government relocating Iowa people to free hotels in Chicago ?

When will Spike Lee say that the Federal Government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines ?

Where are Sean Penn and the Dixie Chicks?

Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes and big screen television sets?

When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa , because that's the way God wants it?

Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of cannibalism?

Where are the people declaring that George Bush hates white, rural people?

How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again?

A note from Radarsite: This is probably the most racist article that Radarsite has ever published. The disturbing conclusions reached in this article are undeniably shocking and inflammatory. In some countries this essay would have automatically been banned as constituting Hate Speech. Even here in the USA statements such as these can -- and indeed have been -- considered grounds for legal action. These volatile words are justly considered dangerous and potentially lethal, likened to that old "Shouting 'Fire' in a crowded theater" analogy.

But are they true?

And, even if these statements are proven to be true, is it irresponsible journalism to report them? Does merely reporting the statistical evidence become in and of itself an incendiary act of racism? When do naked facts become racist propaganda? When does reporting the truth become a criminal act of disturbing the peace? Are we even interested in the truth, or merely interested in not making waves? Where are the lines drawn? And who draws these lines?

To call this subject explosive is a gross understatement. It is all but untouchable.

Some time ago Radarsite wrote about a series of articles that had appeared on the web purporting to be an examination of the out-of-control crime rates in Philadelphia. Not once in this entire series was the subject of race brought up. The biggest single societal upheaval in that city's three hundred year history was simply ignored. Instead the author referred to "these people" and their drug problems. And this, my friends, passes for investigative journalism.

Whether we are attempting to address the huge inner city black crime problem, or the pervasive black multi-generational welfare ethos, or the startling differences between the social effects of the floods in Louisiana or Iowa, or the undeniable rise in Houston's crime rate [see below] after warmly welcoming those black Katrina victims into their fair city, we have learned to think and to write in an ingenious new form of Doublespeak. In short, we have succumbed to fear -- especially fear of the truth. Anything, but the truth.

Sorry, but all cultures are not the same.

Like it or not, there are vast historical differences between, say, the Chinese culture and the African-American culture. Differences that go back thousands of years. Major differences between their attitudes towards family, education, work ethos, etc. To attempt to ignore these obvious facts is worse than delusional; it is cowardly and ultimately self-destructive.

Talking about these things only adds fuel to the fire --

This is the screen the PC activists hide behind. By openly discussing these controversial racial issues, they tell us, we are not helping to solve them, we are merely widening the gap. In other words, by speaking the truth we are only making matters worse. What is needed here is tolerance and understanding. An open mind and an open heart.

Tell that to the good folks in Houston.

How the hell can we ever be expected to deal with these enormous societal problems if we are forbidden to even discuss them, if we have to talk to each other in code, if we have to delete our thoughts before we have even thought them?

The issue of race and race relations has become one of the most important issues of our day. Because of the Democratic Presidential candidate, race has been pushed to the forefront of this campaign -- not, as we have seen, just here in America, but all over the world people are watching this drama unfold. Whether we refuse to acknowledge it or not, Barrack Obama has become a symbol for innumerable colored peoples around the world. A symbol of a black man rising up against that traditional post-colonial white oppression.

Today more than ever, we must be able to talk about race openly and without fear. The percentage of blacks who have already committed their votes to Barrack Obama have proven to the world that race matters; to try to continue to deny this obvious truth only worsens our chances to come together. But we can never come together so long as the black community -- and their PC, multiculturalist liberal enablers continue to avoid the harsh truths of the black predicament.

The degenerative state of the inner city black community is a black problem, and can only be solved by blacks. No amount of egocentric white guilt, or liberal white intervention, no amount of tricky euphemisms or outright denials will solve their problems for them.

Finally, I believe that almost everything in the above article is true. I believe that everything I have stated is true. If that makes me a racist, then so be it. I would rather be called a racist than a liar. -rg
