I have a very simple rule in my home: all who enter must respect that it is a sanctuary. A place of peace, health, safety, love, and tranquility. A respite from the public sphere.
Now imagine if I invited in some house guests because they had fallen on tough times. And they started started trashing it, committing crimes, being violent, terrorizing my neighbors, forbidding my traditions, insisting on making the rules in my home, insisting that I (and my neighbors) needed to live by those rules, etc.
Wouldn’t it just make sense to make the guests leave, and never let them come back? If I would not do it myself, how long would it be before my neighbors banded together and did it anyway?
I think it would be better for me to face my mistake and act, than to ignore the obvious and make it someone else’s problem.
Just saying. There may be an allegory here.
What do you think?
This would not be good. You may have to invite bigger house guests to eject the the current ones. Is this happening to a friend or neighbor?
Another thought. Cook unpopular food.
I get the gist of what you are saying.Yes, it should work on a bigger scale. But is there anyone strong enough to evict these people.
I wouldn’t count on the neighbours. Think about who your neighbours are. They would never make it over the walls.
that’s just racist…
🙃
The problem is, it’s not your house. It’s an apartment building. Equity is shared among a lot of people, and the most vocal of them (and the most distant from the rooms, occupied and trashed by guests) call you words when you try to discuss the problem with thugs you let in. Short-term damage from being labeled a bad person outweighs short-term damage done by guests, so you keep silence. Eventually the guests got their equity share as well (i.e. by having a child), and now you no longer have the right to show them where the door is.
Well, at least you can form a big enough group, that will start a review the way equity is rewarded to the occupants, and maybe revoke it even from the worst offenders. Of course, you can only do this while the number of guests is significantly lower than the number of long-term occupants.
Speak in code we must
Yoda,
It seems we are and I feel silly. My suggestion for those in Europe is to close the gates and with those already in, have little tolerance. How expensive is it to charter a plane and sent them back compared to supporting them at European costs?
Very true Sergy, it’s not just an apt. it’s govt. housing! Even worse.
Now imagine that you actually worked your whole life to build the govt. housing, maybe even risked your life for it, and then you get moved into a tiny studio so the rude house guests can have the deluxe suite!?!

@ Fuzzie don’t feel silly, I think your suggestions of making this not so hospitable and the food not so great were good suggestions!
About the rude houseguests, I think that Obama made the problem worse when he extended Section 8 housing to all neighborhoods, not just the ones that cost less to rent in.
RPG,
I took you literally and that would be good advice for that scale. Perhaps it could be applied on a larger scale?
The “invite bigger houseguests” was also not bad advice, so long as they are super scary relatives (not more guests) I think that might work.
With that, I had bears in mind.
I think bears would do nicely!
They are usually quiet, I wouldn’t want them for upstairs neighbors.
I doubt bears put up with much nonsense tho!
We do like peace and quiet.
FML, I am one of those neighbours. Can one be racist against one’s self.
Happy Christmas, everyone!
Loved the bear and the hare.
You are most welcome! Bear videos are good for the soul.
You are so right. I am from Spain and I see it in daily basis. Thousends of Muslim African men crossing the Strait of Gibraltar every week. Some remain in Spain and Portugal, most of them cross the border with France and go to the rest of Europe. Mainly to France, UK, Belgium, Nederlands, Scandinavia and Germany.
The immigration coming across the Strait is not like the Syrian refugees (families), the immigration coming from the Strait are 100% young, fit, black males.
A lot of European women are having intercourse with these migrants and they get pregnant. It seems -surprise!!- that these Muslim black migrants are not “hubby material”, so we are facing in Europe a single mom epidemic with mulato babies. The European welfare State has to take care of these single moms an their children. It costs a lot of money coming from the taxes.
It is not the only problem. The other problem is the behavior you point in your article.
Yes, there is a lot of racism here. Anti-white racism. And there is a lot of religious bigotry: anti-Christian bigotry, and anti-secular bigotry (from the “guests”). And there is more bigotry: anti-feminist bigotry (from the “guests), and anti-gay bigotry (from the “guests”). This is the paradox we are facing in Europe: if we want to keep all our progressive values (welfare-State, secularism, gay marriage, feminism) we have to support (because there is no other chance) local far right parties.
Said all this by a progressive (a “liberal” as you say in the USA) who is seriously thinking about voting to the far right. Never ever in my entire life thought about voting the far right, but enough is enough.

Iberian, I can relate. I also never in my life voted right until this time when right had gone so far I could no longer relate. Maybe I bought the sham all along? I dunno. But now I see, and I cannot unsee.
I have followed and watched what is happening in Europe with much worry.
I would say more, but anything seems inadequate. I can only imagine how it must be 😦
Redpillgirl, thanks for replays. 🙂
Iberian…just linked and excerpted your comment at this thread:
http://chicagoboyz.net/archives/54518.html#comment-962692
David, I like you linked my comment on that thread and and I read the comments bellow..
It is, indeed, very interesting and it shows us the Atlantic cultural gap between Europe and the States. I guess there is more European people posting on this blog and maybe they can agree with me.
* First of all: I am not a hard-leftist, I am moderate leftist. In Europe is called “socialdemocrat” or “labour”. In the States is called “liberal”. But now I am a moderate leftist suporting the far right. I guess it made me an “occasional fascist”, like millions are going to be.
*We DO have far right parties in Europe. And that is OK. Front National, fo instance.
*It Is not in the European culture to carry a gun when you go to the street. Here it is seen as sort of barbaric. I think in UK they think about the American “rednecks” and in Spain we think about the Mexicans. Said that… I do not discard the possibility of a “shortcut” in the fight to the Islamization. Maybe the kind of “shortcut” they took in West germany in the 70s to sort the Baader-Meinhoff problem. And I guess most people will look at the other side.
*I think the Americans view on feminism are not the same views we have this side of the Atlantic. I think you Americans relate feminism with “wifey raping hubby in Court due to frivorce”. In fact, that is what most conservative married women use to do. I think the Europan view on feminism is more laid back. It is more about women shagging around like there is no tomorrow, which, actually, it is quite good for us, men. In the 60s, in Spain, if any man wanted to have a shag only had 2 ways: the church or the brothel. Thanks to feminism there are more options.
David, I guess you are a “miltonian”. I am not, but all my respects. Just would like to tell you and to all “miltonians” that between Milton Freedman and Karl Marx there is a lot of ground. 🙂
“Friedman”, sorry.
iberian, thanks for reply. I wouldn’t call myself a Miltonian, exactly…for example, I would not always and automatically reject all tariffs in all circumstances. We have quite a mix of opinions and perspectives at Chicago Boyz, mostly Americans but a few Europeans…feel free to drop by and comment at any time.
Thanks for invitation, David.
