Keith Ellison: some cars are just asking for it
Asking for what? Why, to be stolen, of course:
Keith Ellison – to refresh your memory – is the current AG of Minnesota, an ex-Congressman, a convert from Catholicism to Islam, and was the special prosecutor in the Derek Chauvin case who decided on the charges and the approach.
Of course, teaching young people not to steal is off his “to do” list.
“Go after automakers because their cars are too easy to steal”?
Well, I guess we need to go after purse manufacturers because their purses are too easy to steal…
And go after the drugstore chains because it is too easy for a mob of thieves to wipe out the store…
And go after ATM manufacturers because it is too easy to mug someone at the ATM…
Just another example of how lost we are as a nation that this charlatan is the AG of a state and making these ridiculous, criminal-excusing statements.
So this guy, a designated expert on the subject, tells us young black men can’t help themselves. When presented with some convenient larceny, they just go “off” and nothing can stop them since they have no agency or autonomy.
Can’t argue with somebody with Ellison’s background.
Good to know.
Might want to check on the lasting effects of the ingestion of lead prior to age five. If anybody wants to go there.
Might not be true, depending on the science. Or it might be true because an excuse is necessary.
Driving car manufacturers out of business is necessary to the implementation of 15 minute cities.
Canada’s Trudeau government is taking a different approach to discouraging car ownership; “Toronto Police Tell The Public “To prevent the possibility of being attacked in your home, leave your key fobs at your front door, because they’re breaking into your home to steal your car. They don’t want anything else.”

Women need to stop wearing dresses only encourages rape. Typical Muslim!!
Ellison unleashed the whirlwind in 2020
I noted elsewhere there was a ds9 from 1996 that projected something like what happened in 2020

Are white people guilty of being too easy to assault?
He was my congressman for a couple of years. This is nothing new. Minnesotans have known the truth about him for decades. And elected him AG twice.
I didn’t know Ellison converted to Islam from Catholicism. It is not a particularly edifying thing to learn, IMO, but not without explanatory value. Sometimes I wonder what the man really wants to achieve.
Geoffrey Britain –
Funny you should mention “Fifteen Minute Cities.” recently, a friend of mine and I were talking about the death of our hometown. It was a small city with about a population of about 2000 when we were growing up there. It had a grocery store, a small clothing store, a hardware store, a bakery, a five-and-dime, a liquor store, for restaurants, a furniture store, a local newspaper (which offered printing services and sold office supplies), the school (with a track and tennis courts that anyone could use when the school wasn’t), a dance studio, two hairdressers, a doctors office, lots of churches… There was also a factory there, where a lot of the town worked. On the edge of town was another larger park, a golf course, and a swimming pool. You could walk anywhere, and where it was a little far, you could ride a bike. The “big city” nearby — about 30,000 people when were kids, had lots to do. And SEVERAL factories…
These types of towns were everywhere for a long time. They truly were “fifteen-minute cities.”
The Left and the Right have been strangling them slowly.
First, school consolidation. It was a small blow, and everyone seemed to think it was the thing to do: it concentrated funds to help get nicer facilities with things like pools and science labs. But it took a certain amount of pride out of the really tiny towns. and in general, it left the old school buildings to rot and fall down over the decades.
Then manufacturing was consolidated — no more small plants in small towns! The one in my small town was closed down. Then the ones in the nearby “city” all folded up and left. People left — there weren’t the jobs anymore. Then retail died — no one was buying things since the manufacturing jobs all left. Leaving more empty buildings to rot and decay.
And we as a country were sold a bill of goods in a way that even in my small town, people stopped going to church. Congregations disbanding because they are down to a handful of families. Churches sitting empty, the buildings rotting and decaying…
Then the con artists fleeced people: “I am coming to rescue this wonderful building!” The community threw money at them but all they did was rip out anything salvageable, stealing the money… and disappearing.
Then came the drugs. They are everywhere. The people who didn’t “get” while the getting was good were trapped with nothing to do. About the only stores left (Walmart having run all the local retail under) are junk stores, or junk stores carefully disguised as “antique stores.” And the flea market — where a lot of stolen stuff is sold.
People drown their sorrows in heroin and fentanyl. Or maybe just alcohol. The kids who grew up with no church, do drugs because they never had much direction before, and know there is no future.
These people like Trudeau want “fifteen-minute cities” — we had them — we had them in abundance — but they had to be destroyed.
Instead of “forcing” places like Toronto, or San Francisco, or Cleveland into the mold of what the movers and shakers think is a “fifteen-minute city” maybe they should look at what it might take to revive the original ones.
(Actually, most large cities once used to be “fifteen-minute cities” with neighborhoods that had distinct identities, and the people in those neighborhoods had neighborhood pride. But the same people and the same crap that killed the small town, h helped kill those neighborhoods.)
Philip Sells: “Sometimes I wonder what the man [Ellison] really wants to achieve.”
The same thing as Obama – “fundamental transformation”. With a dash of antifa violence thrown in.
Under sharia the thieves would have their hand cut off.
Philip Sells and FOAF:
I too wonder what people like Ellison (and Obama) want to accomplish. “Fundamental transformation” certainly describes a racially fractionated country, but to what end? Or easy access to harmful drugs — again, to what end? Or the encouragement of living on the streets and stripping retail establishments of their goods — all part of the fundamentally transformed nation, but what good does it do for Obama and Ellison? Some people live for wealth, or for political success, or for fame. Obama has had all of them in abundance, and Ellison has done pretty well too. Yet still they work for the destruction (or something) of the USA. I am still waiting for an explanation of what they want and what would make them satisfied.
well what did Madiba Mandela accomplish and those who came after, admittedly apartheid was a blinkered social system, but as joel Pollak has noted, for example, what came later was not an improvement, a host of petty and vicious warlords like Zuma, almost all were trained in the East Bloc, like many of the so called Palestinians, like Abu Mazen like the late Sabri Al banna, Abu Nidal, the collapse of educational systems, led to the flourishing of gangs like those from Nigeria, another one of those great victories of decolonization, what do they think will rise in it’s place, its an intriguing question,
look what minneapolis the ground zero of this color revolution, has wrought, is it safer for every day citizens it is not, to say that is shibboleth, look at Gotham, or Mordor my name for formerly Philadelphia,
Again, Keith Ellison, Ilhan Omar, Ayanna Pressley, and Letitia James were put in office by electorates with white (non-hispanic) majorities. White boobs in bourgeois neighborhoods provided the margin of victory for the black boob who is currently Mayor of Chicago. There are a lot of feckless, stupid, and malicious people running around.
