Muslim and black neighborhoods have similar expectations of “justice”…

We have read of the creation of  Muslim “no go  zones” in several cities in Europe and even places in the US like Dearborn, Michigan.  Native law enforcement and criminal justice systems are not welcomed in these zones.  Established authority – police - avoid these areas.  These are areas with concentrations of Muslims who…

  • Refuse to assimilate into the local mainstream culture,
  • Have their own legal system and sense of justice (Sharia),
  • Have a profound lack of education and are ignorant of civilized behavior and mores, and
  • Have a culturally promoted hostility toward civil authority and the prevailing culture in the non-Muslim nations in which they reside.

And I’ll throw this in:  In the US, these Muslim populations are typically Democrats who would probably prefer to be either socialist, communist, or pure Sharia adherents.

Of course, “no alcohol, no gambling, no music or concerts, no porn or prostitution and no drugs or smoking” also means you get a body part cut off for violating any of these Sharia mandates.

To some it up:  These Muslim neighborhoods resent and are openly hostile to outside authority, laws, and criminal justice systems.  They prefer paternalistic and local authoritarian systems, minimizing the need for a sense of personal responsibility.

Moving on to predominantly black neighborhoods in the US, these share similar characteristics.  Using Ferguson as an example, they…

  • Refuse to assimilate into the local mainstream culture,
  • Have their own legal system and sense of justice,
  • Have a profound lack of education and are ignorant of civilized behavior and mores, and
  • Have a culturally promoted hostility toward civil authority and the prevailing culture in the larger community in which they reside.

And yes, they tend to be Democrats with a tendency to prefer socialist, Communist, or Sharia forms of governance, all paternalistic and authoritarian, minimizing the need for a sense of personal responsibility.

Whitey not allowed – especially whitey’s criminal justice system.

And here is the greatest tragedy:  We have a president who defends and promotes their separatist preferences.  We have a president who believes that our prevailing form of governance and criminal justice system ought not to apply to them.  He believes they should be immune from our prevailing form of justice and be subject only to their own.  The problem with that is their form of justice is street justice – mob rule justice -  another form of tribal justice. 

Urban black neighborhoods appear to prefer that our constitutionally-based civilized system of justice not apply to them.  They are demanding their own mob rule justice.  And our president agrees with them.

I am not surprised that peddlers of Communism and Islam are making inroads among these ignorant masses.  They are ripe pickins’ for these paternalistic and authoritarian ideologies.  The ignorant and uncivilized require the type of strict societal structure these ideologies are known to provide.  Unfortunately, for those who follow this path, they will be whipsawed between bouts of anarchy and gang/tribal dictatorships.  In the words of Janice Joplin:  “’Freedom’ is just another word for ‘nothing left to lose’” and they will become even more like animals – preferring a culture of infighting and barbarism.

If the president has his way, they may get what they wish for.  And our nation will be much worse for it.
