Migrant Caravan Continues for U.S. Border After Rejecting Mexico's Offer to Stay

http://time.com/5436923/migrant-caravan-continues-us-mexico/

You can see multiple flags PROUDLY flying in the image from the article in this link.  Conspicuously absent is the American flag.  People from the "caravan" are only flying flags from the "despotic, awful, UN-LIVABLE" countries that they are "fleeing" from.

Now, Mexico has offered them "shelter, medical attention, schooling and jobs" under the "You Are Home" program if they simply stay in Mexico.  However, the vast majority laughed at the deal, preferring to pick and choose which country to settle in.  It's kind of like those Syrian refugees who get to safety in Turkey...and then go through Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, and Austria before reaching Germany.  I guess those other 7 countries still had them fearing for their lives...  Remember "The Jungle" in Calais, France?  Those were "refugees" fleeing France to enter England.  We're told there are no shit-hole countries, but it seems that either there are only a scant few non-shit-hole countries, or even migrants are extremely picky and choosy, preferring generous free handouts and relatively high wages if they decide to actually work.  I know there are a million people out there waiting patiently and paying their dues to come legally, but we reward those who do not respect us and who come illegally.  After all, if we believed in fairness, these illegals would be gone, and we would not let more in.

In Defense of...Cecil Rhodes?!

You all know Cecil Rhodes, right?  He was a British Imperialist (living from 1853-1902) who founded the De Beers diamond mining and trading company.  Just this morning, I came upon a post comparing him to Adolf Hitler, and claiming that Cecil Rhodes killed at least 60 million Africans.  It has been shared 99 times.  Here is the post: https://plus.google.com/+TonyJefferson/posts/CZ6HW3AxDo6 Unlike many, I decided to do some research on it.  That is my nature.  I don't accept things without evidence given, and even when no evidence is provided, I search for evidence.  If after looking, no evidence is forthcoming, then I discount the claim unless compelling evidence does surface.  After my research on this topic (taking up about an hour of my day and 28 open tabs on my browser...but still an enjoyable time because this is what I like to do), I found that my initial skepticism was well justified and that this comparison is incorrect.  Adolph Hitler and Cecil Rhodes cannot be compare

Inconvenient History – The Barbary Slave Trade

Once upon a time, slavers ravaged the coastal towns of the European continent. Eventually, the response to that would include clear proof that the United States is not founded on a religion. Soon thereafter, European imperialism would become the driving force for the abolition of slavery around the world. Continue reading to learn more. The Barbary Slave Trade is a relatively small part of the Arab Slave Trade, which itself is only one part of the Islamic Slave Trade (which besides Arab slavers, includes Turks enslaving Europeans and Africans, Muslim invaders of India and Sub-Saharan Africa, Malay enslavers of local minorities, and other Islamic slavers). For example, the Arab Slave Trade may have enslaved up to 18 million people over its span (not including those born enslaved), while the Barbary Slave Trade enslaved some number over 1 million. Bear in mind that this number is three times the number of enslaved people (roughly 388 thousand) sent to the area of the United Sta

The Sixth Great Mass Extinction and Human Survival

Recently, there have been numerous articles about a study showing that we are in the midst of the Earth's sixth great mass extinction.  Below are some quotes, and then I will give my thoughts. "Miami (AFP) - The world is embarking on its sixth mass extinction with animals disappearing about 100 times faster than they used to, scientists warned Friday, and humans could be among the first victims." "Not since the age of the dinosaurs ended 66 million years ago has the planet been losing species at this rapid a rate, said a study led by experts at Stanford University, Princeton University and the University of California, Berkeley." "The study "shows without any significant doubt that we are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event," said co-author Paul Ehrlich, a Stanford University professor of biology." http://news.yahoo.com/sixth-mass-extinction-us-study-210749359.html This is sad, although it's not news.  I
