Media
Heroes.
About 12 years ago while working in a
dealership, a co-worker named Ronnie saved the lives of a man and
woman in what was a truly heroic act. Take a minute and let me describe
that act so you can see how truly heroic it was and then I will
try to explain why it is relevant and contrasts to some people the
media are calling heroes.
In Waterford Michigan there are a lot
of lakes and in the winter people like to snowmobile across them.
Because many of these lakes are part of a chain of lakes there is
water flow and a current that will cause certain spots in some of
these lakes to not freeze in the winter or at least not freeze easily.
A lot of the people that snowmobile either avoid these spots or
sometimes you can drive fast enough and just skip right through
the water and make it to the other side on your snowmobile. People
do that for the thrill I guess or maybe because a lot of the unfrozen
spots can be rather long and a bit inconvenient to drive around.
Having fallen thru the ice once at a young teen I can tell ya you
are fucked when that happens. You have less that 2 minutes to get
out and you start losing muscle strength almost right away. You
grab at the edge of the ice and try to pull yourself out but even
if the ice doesn't break you still have nothing to grab onto to
pull your heavy water laden body out of the water. If people do
not save you right away you are done.
Well in this particular case Ronnie was
snowmobiling on one of these lakes and on the other side of a long
unfrozen patch he saw a couple coming toward him. They must not
have known that there was a gap in the ice and Ronnie watched as
they approached the gap. They weren't going fast enough to get across
and even slowed down at the last second. Without enough speed to
get across they went into that water and couldn't get out. As anyone
would, Ronnie raced to the spot and when he got there the couple
was already losing their strength and they weren't going to stay
up very long. Ronnie could not get to them because they were on
the other side of the gap and this was a wide gap. As well as wide
it was very long and these people would last long enough for him
to go around it. Seeing other people coming from the other side
to help and knowing that they were not going to get there in time
he decided to act. He turned his sled around and drove a little
bit away from the gap so that he had some room to gain some speed
and he turned around a drove toward the gap as fast as he could.
He skipped across the water and crossed the gap, once on the other
side he was able to pull the woman out. Just as he got back to the
edge and laid back down to pull the guy out or at least hold him
until the other would be rescuers that were rushing toward them
the man lost his ability to swim and went under. Without even thinking
that as soon as he went in the water he would not be able to get
out on his own Ronnie jumped in after him, got to him and pulled
his head up out of the water. In just a dozen or so seconds the
other rescuers got there and they were able to pull them both out
of the water. The man was first and Ronnie later said that by the
time they got to himself he was slowing down a lot. That's all I
remember of that story and I assume they all went to the hospital
and recovered. This earned Ronnie a very small paragraph in the
very local news and got a plaque later that year. He did what he
did because that is what people do in an emergency but in my opinion
he really crossed the line to hero status when he went in the water
himself and willingly put his life within minutes of death to save
someone that might die anyway.
Now here it is in 2003 and for the last
four days I have had to watch on every newscast the very vague story about 3 people
that are being called heroes.
According to the news a tanker jackknifed
and flipped over. 3 black guys pulled the white driver out of the
truck and the tanker burned. That's the extent of the actual facts
of the events and no other facts were supplied throughout the 4
days of coverage and celebrations.
Some things seemed very manipulated
about this story. For one thing they never once say the driver was
trapped, unconscious or otherwise unable to get out. I am not saying
that he could get out but they never say that he couldn't and these
people are professionals. They know how to accurately report the
news and they know how to spin it and not one newscast would say
those words.
Constantly they showed the burning truck near the end of the
fire and it was very much consumed and it looked devastating. Those images give
the casual observer the automatic impression he was saved from the raging fire
but at no time did the news state that the truck was on fire when the driver exited
the cab or if the fire had started what level it was burning at. There is no way
anyone could ever get near the thing if the fire had been raging and once a tanker
fire gets going it goes to raging very fast so there could not have been a significant
blaze at the time of extraction. When these
3 supposed rescuers and the rescued appeared on the news not one showed any visible
injuries or bandages except for one bandage on the forearm of the driver. I wont
say they didn't save the drivers life because I have no evidence that they didn't
but I wouldn't ever call them heroes because there is no evidence of that either.
The imagery and the way the story was reported tried real hard to make that impression
that there was a battle with death but there was nothing substantive or witnessed
to support that conclusion. The entire emphasis
of the news was on the fact that the white was indebted to the efforts of these
black who were not just a carload of never employed blacks driving around during
the day in their expensive shoes and clothes but heroes. Over the 4 days of coverage
they paraded them out in a carefully choreographed coverage they fed us just the
right info and images at just the right times. First the driver calling them heroes
and telling us over and over that regardless of color they were his brothers.
The obligatory invite to the white home for a celebration and more statement of
brotherhood and indebtedness. Then the next day there was more of the same and
then it came out that these 3 we victims of the economy and the disparities in
employment and all they were doing in that car that day was looking for work.
Do you ever take your buddies with you when you look for work? Do you think they
searched that car for dugs or ran warrant checks? The mayor of Detroit gave speeches
and a check to them even though this didn't happen in Detroit. The driver went
to all these things and declared brotherhood every time the camera was pointed
at him. On the fourth day a company in Troy Michigan, offered them all jobs. The
attractive blonde spokeswoman said that these are the kind of employee that their
company wants and that they would be provided with some very good pay. If I recall
correctly this company laid people off last spring.
In the end it was a race love fest and judging by the smirking faces of
these 3 blacks there was something really false here and they knew they were getting
away with something. They really earned none of the rewards they got and were
never modest. Compared to Ronnie who after the first day of telling his co-workers
what happened we never heard about it again until he eventually got his plaque.
We all thought a lot more of him for it but we didn't gush or give him stuff.
I hope in the end the real result is that this
doesn't start a rash of blacks running trucks off the road and then saving them
for the rewards and parties. Heheheheh

"The stain of a cowardly submission can never be
effaced; that this drop of poison in the blood of a people is passed
on to posterity and will paralyze and undermine the strength of
later generations'; that, on the other hand, 'even the loss of this
freedom after a bloody and honorable struggle assures the rebirth
of a people and is the seed of life from which some day a new tree
will strike fast roots"
Of course, a people that has lost all
honor and character will not concern itself with such teachings. For no one who
takes them to heart can sink so low; only he who forgets them, or no longer wants
to know them, collapses. Therefore, we must not expect those who embody a spineless
submission suddenly to look into their hearts and, on the basis of reason and
all human experience, begin to act differently than before. On the contrary, it
is these men in particular who will dismiss all such teachings until either the
nation is definitely accustomed to its yoke of slavery or until better forces
push to the surface, to wrest the power from the hands of the infamous spoilers.
In the first case these people usually do not feel so badly, since not seldom
they are appointed by the shrewd victors to the office of slave overseer, which
these spineless natures usually wield more mercilessly over their people than
any foreign beast put in by the enemy himself. The development
since 1918 shows us that in Germany the hope of winning the victor's favor by
voluntary submission unfortunately determines the political opinions and the actions
of the broad masses in the most catastrophic way. I attach special importance
to emphasizing the broad masses, because I cannot bring myself to profess the
belief that the commissions and omissions of our people's leaders are attributable
to the same ruinous lunacy. As the leadership of our destinies has, since the
end of the War, been quite openly furnished by Jews, we really cannot assume that
faulty knowledge alone is the cause of our misfortune; we must, on the contrary,
hold the conviction that conscious purpose is destroying our nation. And once
we examine the apparent madness of our nation's leadership in the field of foreign
affairs from this standpoint, it is revealed as the subtlest, ice-cold logic,
in the service of the Jewish idea and struggle for world conquest.
.
Once the disgraceful armistice had been signed, neither the
energy nor the courage could be summoned suddenly to oppose resistance to our
foes' repressive measures, which subsequently were repeated over and over. Our
enemies were too shrewd to demand too much at once. They always limit their extortions
to the amount which, in their opinion - and that of the German leadership ~ would
at the moment be bearable enough so that an explosion 01 popular feeling need
not be feared. But the more of these individual dictates had been signed, the
less justified it seemed, because of a single additional extortion or exacted
humiliation, to do the thing that had not been done because of so many others:
to offer resistance. For this is the "drop of poison" of which Clause-witz
speaks: the spinelessness which once begun must increase more and more and which
gradually becomes the foulest heritage, burdening every future decision. It can
become a terrible lead weight, a weight which a nation is not likely to shake
off, but which finally drags it down into the existence of a slave race.
Viewing all this from a higher vantage-point, we can speak
of one single piece of good fortune in all this misery, which is that, though
men can be befuddled, the heavens cannot be bribed. For their blessing remained
absent: since then hardship and care have been the constant companions of our
people, and our one faithful ally has been misery. Destiny made no exception in
this case, but gave us what we deserved. Since we no longer know how to value
honor, it teaches us at least to appreciate freedom in the matter of bread. By
now people have learned to cry out for bread, but one of these days they will
pray for freedom.
