If you read anything today, read this. The following speech was
given by Governor Lamm at the 2004 Immigration-Overpopulation
Conference in Washington, D.C.
AMERICAN SUICIDE
Wherever you stand, please take the time to
read this; it ought to scare the pants off you!
We know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado
(Democrat). In that context his thoughts
are particularly poignant. Recently there was an immigration
overpopulation conference in Washington,
DC, filled to capacity by many of America's finest minds and
leaders. A brilliant college professor by
the name of Victor Davis Hansen talked about his latest book,
"Mexifornia," explaining how
immigration - both legal and illegal was destroying the entire
state of California He said it would
march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of TheAmerican Dream.
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm
stood up and gave a stunning speech
on how to destroy America. The audience sat spellbound as he
described eight methods for the
destruction of the United States. He said, "If you believe that
America is too smug, too
self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America. It is not
that hard to do. No nation in
history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed
that all great civilizations rise
and fall and that 'An autopsy of history would show that all great
nations commit suicide.'"
"Here is how they do it," Lamm said: "First, to destroy
America, turn America into a bilingual or
multi-lingual and bicultural country." History shows tha! t no nat
ion can survive the tension, conflict,
and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures It
is a blessing for an individual to
be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be
bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour
Lipset, put it this way: "The histories of bilingual and
bi-cultural societies that do not assimilate are
histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy." Canada, Belgium,
Malaysia, and Lebanon all face crises of
national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not
independence. Pakistan and Cyprus
have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces
difficult times with Basques, Bretons, and Corsicans."
Lamm went on: Second, to destroy America, "Invent
'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants
to maintain their culture. Make it an article of belief that all
cultures are equal. That there are
no cultural differences. Make it an article of faith that the
Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due
solely to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every
other explanation is out of bounds.
Third, "We could make the United States an 'Hispanic
Quebec' without much effort. The key is to
celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in
the Atlantic Monthly recently: "The
apparent success of our own multiethnic and multicultural
experiment might have been achieved
not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once
dictated ethnocentricity and
what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance
and pluralism to hold us together."
Lamm said, "I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own
language and culture. I would! replace the
melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important
to ensure that we have various
cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their differences
rather than as Americans, emphasizing
their similarities."
"Fourth, I would make our fastest growing demographic
group the least educated. I would add a
second underclass, un-assimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic
to our population. I would have this
second underclass have a 50% dropout rate from high school."
"My fifth point for destroying America would be to get big
foundations and business to give these
efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I
would establish the cult of
'Victimology.' I would get all minorities to think that their lack
of success was the fault of the
majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority
failure on the majority population."
"My sixth plan for America's downfall would include dualcitizenship, and promote divided
loyalties I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would stress
differences rather than similarities.
Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other-
that is, when they are not
killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable society is
against most historical precedent. People
undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together. Look at
the ancient Greeks. The Greeks
believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed a
common Language and literature; and they
worshiped the same Gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic
games. A common enemy, Persia,
threatened their liberty. ! Yet all these bonds were not strong
enough to overcome two factors: local
patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political
divisions. Greece fell. "E. Pluribus Unum"
-- from many, one. In that historical reality, if we put the
emphasis on the 'Pluribus' instead of the
'Unum,' we will balkanize America assuredly as Kosovo."
"Next to last, I would place all subjects off limits; make
it taboo to talk about anything
against the cult of 'diversity.' I would find a word similar to
'heretic' in the 16th century - that
stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like 'racist' or
'xenophobe' halt discussion and
debate. Having made America a bi-lingual/bicultural country,
having established multiculturalism, having
the large foundations fund the doctrine of 'victimology,' I would
next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would
develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for America,
it must always be good. I would make every individual immigrant
symmetric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them."
In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his
brow. Profound silence followed.
Finally he said, "Lastly, I would censor Victor Hanson Davis's
book "Mexifornia." His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to
destroy America. If you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don't
read that book."
There was no applause. A chilling fear quietly rose like
an ominous cloud above every
attendee at the conference. Every American in that room knew that
everything Lamm enumerated was
proceeding methodically, quietly, da! rkly, yet pervasively across
the United States today.
Discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping the
foundation of our educational system
and national cohesiveness. Even barbaric cultures that practice
female genital mutilation are growing
as we celebrate 'diversity.' American jobs are vanishing into the
Third World as corporations
create a Third World in America - take note of California and
other states - to date, ten million
illegal aliens and growing fast. It is reminiscent of George Orwell's book "1984." In that story,
three slogans are engraved in the Ministry of Truth building: "War
is peace," "Freedom is slavery," and
"Ignorance is strength."
Governor Lamm walked back to his seat. It dawned on
everyone at the conference that our nation
and the future of this great democracy is deeply in trouble and
worsening fast. If we don't get this
immigration monster stopped within three years, it will rage like
a California wildfire and destroy
everything in its path especially The American Dream. If you care
for and love our country as I
do, take the time to pass this on just as I did for you.
NOTHING is exactly what will happen if you don't!
