STOP THE INVASION

This is a very long article, but well worth the investment of time to read.

As I read this article, I remembered that Dallas is leading the nation in crime again, for the 7th year in a row, isn't it? I also had cause to think about some of the sights I see when driving around most of Dallas over recent years. There are very few areas of town that I would deem safe if my car happened to break down. In the context of this article, it is significant to note that the DFW area is slated to become a major transportation hub as depicted by the push for the TransTexas corridor, and already provides an inland port at Alliance. We are also currently in the midst of a natural resource crisis, otherwise known as a drought. We hear from our law enforcement agencies that they do not have the resources to enforce our laws, thus illegal aliens congregating on street corners have nothing to fear. Yet, our government leaders from their glass towers insist that we are an international city, engaged in important global commerce. And they certainly have no problem finding the resources to provide law enforcement to protect those commercial interests. It seems Dallas, the DFW area, contains all the elements required to become a feral city, if we have not already become one?

Imagine a great metropolis covering hundreds of square miles. Once a vital component in a national economy, this sprawling urban environment is now a vast collection of blighted buildings, an immense petri dish of both ancient and new diseases, a territory where the rule of law has long been replaced by near anarchy in which the only security available is that which is attained through brute power. Such cities have been routinely imagined in apocalyptic movies and in certain science-fiction genres, where they are often portrayed as gigantic versions of T. S. Eliot’s Rat’s Alley. Yet this city would still be globally connected. It would possess at least a modicum of commercial linkages, and some of its inhabitants would have access to the world’s most modern communication and computing technologies. It would, in effect, be a feral city.
