Crazy People Are Dangerous

Posted on | May 13, 2019 | Comments Off on Crazy People Are Dangerous

Hailey Burns (left); Michael Wysolovski (right).

On May 23, 2016, Anthony and Shauna Burns discovered that their 16-year-old daughter Hailey was missing from their home near Charlotte, N.C. The front door was unlocked and the teenager, who had been diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome, left behind a diary that detailed her plans to run away with a man she had met in an online forum:

“He gradually wormed his way into her good graces, he coerced her into listening to him and not following our directions and the next thing I knew my daughter wasn’t communicating with me,” her father told WBTV. . . .
“My daughter was troubled and had psychological problems that were diagnosed and clouded her judgment. I was working very closely with her to get her on track spending evenings trying to bond with her and feeling as if I was making some progress . . .”
Speaking to WSOC-TV, Anthony Burns said one of his daughter’s friends had heard about the man prior to her disappearance.
“He told me that my daughter had been talking to a 30-year-old man for over six months who was trying to convince her to talk to him, and saying that he would be her friend and she could come to him,” her father alleged.

For more than a year, Hailey’s whereabouts remained unknown, until a woman in Romania who had been chatting online with Hailey contacted her parents, sharing a photo the girl had sent her. The family passed the information to the FBI, and the next day, June 25, 2017, agents found Hailey in the Duluth, Georgia, home of Michael Wysolovski, 31:

Investigators said he met Hailey Burns online, then kept her locked inside an upstairs bedroom and controlled every aspect of her life, down to the number of calories she ate each day.
“He manipulated me heavily, taking advantage of my mental illness to push me closer to his desires,” Hailey said.
Wysolovski sat without emotion as Hailey described how she was abused, starved at times as part of his twisted sexual fantasies.
“He lowered my self-esteem greatly and led me to believe I’d never be loved or have a proper life if I gained any weight,” Hailey said. . . .
Wysolovski targeted Hailey through an eating disorder website and eventually lured her away from her home in Ballantyne just after she turned 16 years old.
Channel 9 learned Hailey was given a fake ID and told to lie about who she really was.
The state attorney struck a plea deal in the case that the family agreed to, saying a trial would not have brought a guaranteed conviction.

Many people were outraged that prosecutors gave Wysolovski a deal that let him off with time served — he spent eight months in jail before making bond — but the relevant laws as applied to the circumstances of the case could have made it difficult to convict him at trial. Age of consent is 16, and Hailey had initially consented to the relationship:

The victim and Wysolovski agreed to enter a “consensual non-consensual” sexual relationship, a type of BDSM (bondage, domination, submission, masochism) relationship in which the partners agree to simulate non-consensual sex acts, prosecutor Michael DeTardo said during the plea hearing. Over time, Wysolovski violated the set boundaries for this arrangement, refusing to use “safe words” and using “excessive force” including biting and physical violence. The victim, who was anorexic, initially encouraged Wysolovski to control her eating habits and kept journals detailing her desire to lose weight, DeTardo said. Wysolovski later used food to punish the victim or force her to perform sexual acts.

He kept her locked in a dog cage for much of her captivity. She repeatedly attempted suicide after she was rescued. In her statement at his sentencing, Hailey described herself as “irreparably broken,” having suffered “psychological damage . . . beyond imagination.”

One of the most disturbing aspects of this story is that the perpetrator is a blank slate, with no previous criminal record, and none of the news stories provides any background to explain how or why this guy turned into a sadistic monster. Were I the prosecutor in such a case, I would require as part of any plea bargain that the perpetrator undergo extensive psychological evaluation. A report of this evaluation would become part of the public record, not only to function as a sort of warning notice to the public after the criminal was released from custody, but also to help increase awareness of the psychological causes of such deviant behavior.

People who engage in BDSM behavior, either as sadist “masters” or as masochist “submissives,” are pathologically perverted, and the fact that this perversion was the subject of a bestselling book and hit movie, 50 Shades of Grey, should be interpreted as evidence that our culture has entered a disturbing condition of degeneracy and decadence. When you get to the point where a freak seeking a perfect victim for his sick fantasies is lurking on an Internet forum for girls with eating disorders, and he seems to have no trouble finding a volunteer for this arrangement, you have to worry about the size of the submerged iceberg of craziness, of which this case is merely the visible tip.

It’s sort of like the NXIVM sex cult case: How is it that so many women, including heiress Clare Bronfman and actress Allison Mack, could willingly participate in the sadistic fantasies of Keith Raniere, which involved among other things forcibly branding the cult’s sex slaves? What could explain such behavior? Why do so many women evidently get off on being used and degraded this way? How did they get so twisted?

Here’s a possible hint from Rollo Tomassi:

Women reward not goodness, but strength. And strength is amoral, meaning it can be either just or unjust, good or bad. The guy with strength can either be the villain or the hero — it makes no difference to women. They can’t tell the difference and in truth don’t care anyway.

(The Rational Male: Positive Masculinity, p. 249.)

Honestly, I don’t want to believe that, but there is so much evidence supporting this “red pill” perspective that it’s difficult to ignore. If women are just naturally turned on by strength — forcefulness, aggression, power — and if their hard-wired psychosexual response to this is indifferent to whether a man’s strength is used for good or evil, what influence will women’s “empowerment” have on our culture? On our politics?

Be afraid. Be very afraid.

S.F. Police Raid Reporter’s Home

Posted on | May 13, 2019 | 1 Comment

In February, San Francisco public defender Jeff Adachi decided to spend Sunday with his mistress. He told his wife he was going to the gym, but instead went to a vacant Telegraph Hill apartment, which a friendly real estate agent, Susan Kurtz, had permitted him to use. There, Adachi spent the day with a woman known only as “Catalina,” according to a police report made public by freelance reporter Bryan Carmody. The police report provided the details of how Adachi spent the final day of his life. After consuming cocaine, alcohol and cannabis, Adachi began experiencing severe upper-abdominal pain and sweating profusely. By the time “Catalina” called 911, it was too late to save the married 59-year-old lawyer, who died about 5:45 p.m. from cardiac arrest.

Adachi was a longtime adversary of San Francisco’s police department, and the unauthorized leak of a police report with details of his death was viewed as retaliation. Friday morning, police raided Bryan Carmody’s home with a search warrant, seeking to discover the source of his information, which he has refused to divulge. Glenn Reynolds remarks that “if Bill Barr were sending FBI agents to raid journalists’ homes in search of leakers, we’d be told that the Fourth Reich had descended on America,” but because this is happening in liberal San Francisco, we are expected not to notice the threat to First Amendment freedoms.

Nostalgia Is Not a Policy Agenda

Posted on | May 12, 2019 | 1 Comment

Dalrock points out that some conservatives, in criticizing 21st-century feminism, are merely expressing nostalgia for the feminism of the past. This is an error I’ve never made; having researched the origins of modern feminism in the radical New Left of the 1960s, I realized that the idea of “Women’s Liberation” conveyed by popular culture is starkly at odds with historical reality. Going back even further, to the 19th century, one can read R.L. Dabney’s critique of “Women’s Rights Women” and see that there was never a time when the movement we now call feminism was actually a good thing led by good women. At all times, feminist leaders have been angry, alienated women whose goals were essentially destructive, inspired by selfish and vindictive motives.

Why are conservatives so often tempted to the error of using past feminism — which they wish us to remember as “good” feminism — to indict present-day feminism? In part, it’s because we have reached such a low point of societal decadence that everything in the past seems better in comparison with our current situation. Rock music that adults condemned as savage or subversive in 1969 is considered “classic” by contrast to the meaningless noise preferred by teenagers now. More importantly, however, the success of feminism in terms of acquiring social and political power compels the conservative to make some concession toward “equality” lest he be accused of being a crude bigot, a stereotypical sexist pig. Therefore, the conservative praises a reasonable or “moderate” feminism of the past that exists only in his imperfect memory, since it is unlikely he ever had much interaction with Shulamith Firestone, Mary Daly, Marilyn Frye, Joyce Trebilcot, et al. What he remembers as the “good” feminism of the past is, perhaps, not actually feminism at all, but rather the sort of hedonism celebrated as “liberation” by Helen Gurley Brown (Having It All, 1982). If what you think of as feminism is the Reagan-era “Cosmo girl,” your nostalgia involves a commercialized myth that has very little to do with actual feminism.

Feminism is, and always has been, an anti-male hate movement. Insofar as it ever appears to be anything else, this can be attributed to the movement’s origins within, and continued alliance with, the radical Left. The anti-capitalist/anti-American agenda of feminism is expressed as “intersectionality,” which is why you see feminists supporting, e.g., Rep. Ilhan Omar (ignoring the profound misogyny of Islamic culture) and remaining silent about violence against women when the perpetrators of that violence are illegal aliens. Because their ideology identifies certain males — white, heterosexual, “privileged” — as uniquely complicit in the oppression of women, feminists share the anti-white biases of the Left, and are also anti-capitalist because they identify capitalism as a source of “male privilege.” These aspects of feminist ideology have been evident for many decades, and it is a mystery why a conservative would defend any previous iteration of feminism except, perhaps, because of misguided nostalgia. I mean, yeah, what aging Boomer wouldn’t have fond memories of “feminism” as embodied by Adrienne Barbeau in 1972? If the word “feminism” signifies in your mind some feisty, free-spirited woman from your youth, this positive mental association is understandable, but your pleasant memories have nothing to do with the ideology of the actual feminist movement. If the media marketing machinery sold you a brand of “feminism” that was somehow compatible with your conservative beliefs, well, caveat emptor.

Meanwhile, from the comments at Dalrock, we find a link to an article by a Ph.D. feminist that includes this remarkable passage:

Part of the reason it’s so hard for us to talk about the ways patriarchy harms men is the fact that there are already people claiming that the current social order is bad for men, and they’re called men’s rights activists. Like feminists who’ve become conscious of the shortcomings of a patriarchal structure, these groups of “red-pilled” men resist the idea that they should be required to be strong-jawed, stoic providers who work for their wives’ comfort. But unlike those feminists, they blame women for their problems.

You can read the rest of that nonsense, but let me make a point that should be obvious: To criticize the influence of feminism in society is not to “blame women.” Most women are not feminists and, while we’re at it, where is this “patriarchal structure” of which she speaks? American society in 2019 is not remotely patriarchal, so whatever harms suffered by men in “the current social order,” it is wrong to use the word “patriarchy” to describe this situation. Also, we are not living in a “social order.” This is more like anarchy, with heroin addicts crapping on the sidewalks of major cities, and our southern border being overrun by a horde of criminal scum from Central America. Adios, amigos.

Colorado School Shooter’s Father Is Violent Felon and Illegal Alien

Posted on | May 12, 2019 | 3 Comments

 

Pronoun alert — Mya Elizabeth (a/k/a “Alec”) McKinney is the female-to-male transgender teenager in the Highlands Ranch school shooting:

The father of one of the alleged STEM School Highlands Ranch shooters in Colorado is a serial felon and illegal immigrant from Mexico, DailyMail.com can reveal.
Jose Evis Quintana, the father of alleged 16-year-old killer Alec McKinney was once jailed for 15 months for domestic violence against Alec’s mother and ‘menacing with a weapon’.
McKinney has been charged alongside his friend Devon Erickson of killing one student and injuring eight others at the school close Denver, Colorado.
Records show Quintana, 33, who was also deported twice, had a string of arrests in the Colorado dating back from 2008 to 2017.
Court papers show that despite Quintana terrorizing Alec’s mother Morgan Lynn McKinney, 32, he managed to convince her to marry him in 2009, a year before he was first deported.
Quintana, 33, who admitted to having a history of drink and drug problems, was sent back to his native Mexico on December 9, 2010.
Alec, 16, had posted a message on social media about missing his father, just 11 days before the Tuesday May 7 shooting which saw McKinney and friend Devon Erickson, 18, allegedly kill one student and injure eight others. . . .
In divorce papers filed by Morgan on November 19, 2014, Morgan described how Quintana ‘has been traveling illegally between Colorado and Mexico’ since the deportation.
Morgan was never able to serve her husband with papers but the court granted her a divorce on May 11, 2015.
On December 27, 2016, police in Castle Rock learned a warrant had been issued against Quintana in New Mexico for domestic violence.
They found him at a house in Castle Rock and arrested him for being a fugitive from justice. He was jailed pending his extradition to New Mexico.
Quintana never made it to New Mexico. On April 21, 2017, he was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and deported.
On July 4, 2017, Alec posted on his twitter account ‘And I wonder why my dad left’.

It has been noted that the mainstream media lost interest in the Highlands Ranch shooting as soon as it was discovered that the adolescent perpetrators were members of the LGBTQ community. Now that we know one of them was the daughter/“son” of an illegal alien, this story will be memory-holed so deep you might get banned from social media if you mention it. Feminists will ignore it, for some reason.

The Return Of The Book Posts

Posted on | May 12, 2019 | Comments Off on The Return Of The Book Posts

— by Wombat-socho

It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Haven’t posted about books since the end of last August, when I started on getting clear of my old apartment and into a new one. That having been dealt with, and my Uber career ended in the process, I’m going to have a lot more time to be browsing through books. Which is good for you, because then you get the benefit of my experience, which fortunately has been (mostly) good. I want to start off with a debut novel by Jeb Sherrill, Storm Dreams, which is an odd fusion of World War I and H.P. Lovecraft’s tales of Randolph Carter and the Silver Key. It’s an interesting little tale with a lot of derring-do mixed thoroughly with speculation about dreams and reality, and the things that exist on the borderline. It was occasionally slow going, but the climax of the book and its resolution were very well done, and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Stephen Stirling’s Emberverse has finally wrapped up, and I managed to finish the last two novels, The Sea Peoples and The Sky-Blue Wolves, during the course of the move. These two books focus on the adventures of Prince John in the Antipodes;  in the last novel, which shows signs of being rushed, John and his companions liberate Korea from its mad ruler with the help of some renegade Mongols, and the method used owes quite a bit to John’s horrific sojourn in the nightmare lands of the Yellow King, described in The Sea Peoples. To be honest, I was a lot happier with that book than the final novel; Stirling extrapolates the unhappy future of America under its last Emperors (see “The Repairer of Reputations”, by Robert Chambers) and pulls no punches in describing it as our heroes enter it to save Prince John. This alone, in my opinion, is worth the price of the book.

While we’re talking about sequels, Nick Cole’s Pop Kult Warlord is a worthy sequel to Soda Pop Soldier,* and just about all your favorite characters are back, but the stakes are very different – instead of trying to keep his hide intact in meatspace, and win it for ColaCorp while figuring out what’s going on in the Black, Perfect Question’s already won the Big One, and he’s going to Disneyland! Well, not quite…Disneyland isn’t what it used to be, and the Arab playboy who’s hired him to play warlord for Calistan’s online attack on Mars may be the worst boss he’s ever had. Possibly the last if he’s not careful. In comparison, former Protector Ashok Vadal doesn’t have it so bad – ah, who am I kidding? The protagonist of Larry Correia’s House of Assassins is really in the shit, with practically every man’s hand against him – including his former brother Protectors – the nearly impossible task of retrieving the prophet Thera from her shapeshifting captors, and worst of all, he’s got to do it without his mighty Ancestor Blade, Angruvadal. But Ashok is a Larry Correia hero, which means he doesn’t die easy, and he doesn’t quit. Excellent follow-on to the first book.

Going in the other direction, C.J. Cherryh’s taken her time about filling in the backstory of her Alliance-Union ‘verse – there’s a huge gap between Hellburner, which deals with the training of the Earth Company Fleet, and Downbelow Station, where the EC Fleet flees in final defeat from the Alliance merchanters and the Union carriers. Alliance Rising is closer to the former than the latter – there are still STL pusher ships making the ten-year-long run from Sol Station to Alpha Station, but past Alpha and out to Cyteen, FTL ships carry all the people and the cargo. Now comes long-haul merchanter Finity’s End into Alpha, but with all cargo going to the EC’s Rights of Man, and precious little to the ships and people at Alpha, what could they be looking to buy…or sell? Cherryh has not lost her touch at juggling several plot balls at once, ranging from interstellar intrigue to dockside sleepover romances to bureaucratic infighting to prickly inter-ship (and inter-family) negotiations. I honestly can’t tell where co-author Jane Fancher picks up and Cherryh leaves off, to be honest. Anyhow, if you like her other Alliance-Union space novels, you’re going to like this one.

And I think that’s enough for this month.

Illegal Alien Rapes Dog to Death

Posted on | May 11, 2019 | 1 Comment

 

Protected by “sanctuary” laws:

Federal immigration officials lashed out at authorities in Multnomah County, Oregon, and local sanctuary laws Thursday after a man residing in the U.S. illegally was set free upon serving 60 days for raping a dog to death.
Fidel Lopez, 52, was convicted on April 8 of sexually assaulting his fiancée’s Lhasa Apso mix so forcefully that it had to be euthanized. He received a 60-day sentence but was released immediately because he had already served that amount of time awaiting trial on the February offense.
But ICE says the county should have notified the agency at least 48 hours before Lopez was let go so they could apprehend him on immigration violations.
“On April 8, Lopez was convicted of sexual assault of an animal and aggravated animal abuse and sentenced to 60 days in jail with credit for time served,” said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) spokeswoman Tanya J. Roman in a statement. “The Multnomah County Jail did not honor the immigration detainer and released him without notice to ICE.”
ICE picked up Lopez at home Thursday and served him a notice to appear, the agency said, and he will be taken to the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma “pending immigration proceedings.”

Illegal aliens are just raping dogs that American dog-rapers won’t rape, I guess. You may be curious about how this crime happened:

Police learned of the case after Fidel Lopez’s fiancee reported to police that she found her small dog whining and hiding beneath the couch on Nov. 18, 2018. Upon moving the couch to take a look at the dog, she found blood and injuries to the dog’s hind end, according to a probable-cause affidavit.
She took the dog to the DoveLewis emergency hospital, where staff euthanized the dog because of significant internal injuries.
The dog was named Estrella, which means “star” in Spanish.
Estrella’s owner asked that a rape kit be done because Fidel Lopez had expressed an interest in bestiality by exposing his genitals to the dog, bragging about watching another person sexually assault a dog and asking if his fiancee would ever consider getting a dog bigger than a Lhasa Apso mix, according to the affidavit.
DNA evidence linked Fidel Lopez to the crime, investigators say.
According to the affidavit, he told police that he had sex with the dog while in bed with her, after becoming frustrated that the dog’s owner — who was his fiancee of 2½ years — didn’t return home the previous night or answer his phone calls. He told police the dog seemed fine. He said he had been drinking.

Your fiancée doesn’t come home, so you rape her dog. Maybe that’s acceptable in some cultures. Stop being such bigots! Check your privilege!
