Books on the Right - A Nativist's Paranoid Vision (Travis McGee)

I posted this as it pertains to a FReeper, Travis McGee, and his second book, Domestic Enemies.

In Matt's own words:

" After decades of uncontrolled illegal immigration, tens of millions of undocumented Hispanic aliens have received amnesty, and both political parties are pandering to the desires of these new Spanish-speaking instant-citizens. Congress and the President have granted amnesty to a human tsunami of illegal migrants, but to most middle-class Americans, they remain unwanted criminal invaders. The national economy is on the brink of collapse, inflation and unemployment are soaring, and major cities are descending into ungovernable sinkholes of anarchy and inter-ethnic violence. America is poised for a low intensity "dirty civil war."

The action in Domestic Enemies takes place between Oklahoma and Southern California, but much of it occurs in New Mexico. After many years of an open-door policy to illegals and lax "motor-voter" registration, the state government has been taken over by separatists, who are only nominally members of the Democratic Party. The federal government, which is dealing with multiple crises it considers far more urgent, turns a blind eye to the ethnic and political turmoil in the remote border state of New Mexico.

One of the new state government’s top agenda items is radical "land reform." Ranches are being confiscated on the pretext that their original deeds and titles are invalid, according to their interpretation of the 1848 Treaty of Guadaloupe Hidalgo. In order to enforce these “land reform” policies, the radical governor creates a new paramilitary organization, the “Milicia de Nuevo Mexico,” and arms it with surplus M-16 rifles from the state guard armories. (The actual New Mexico National Guard is still fully deployed to the ongoing wars in the Middle East.) Thus the stage is set for a bloody showdown between New Mexico ranchers who refuse to leave their ancestral lands, and the Milicia de Nuevo Mexico, which is comprised largely of former illegal alien immigrants, fighting for free land to be distributed as the spoils of victory in the new Aztlan.

The radical state government also passes “Español Solamente” laws, after several other states have passed English-only laws in reaction to the illegal alien invasion. Police and other Nuevo Mexico government employees who cannot pass difficult Spanish proficiency tests are fired. Milicia highway checkpoints are pervasive, searching cars for illegal firearms. The checkpoints are actually a form of ethnic intimidation, a part of the new state government’s unspoken (but clearly intended) plan for the ethnic-cleansing of Nuevo Mexico.

"Voluntarios" from Mexico, Central and South America (as well as left-wing gringo radicals) are flocking to Nuevo Mexico. They are coming for free land, citizenship and a chance to strike a blow at the hated "imperialist" United States. Well-armed American "Minuteman" volunteers are also heading to the beleaguered state to support the threatened ranchers, and to keep New Mexico within the United States. Bosnia and Kosovo in the early 1990s (just before the Balkans exploded into open warfare) are a model for the witch's brew simmering in the Southwest.

That's the background of my second novel Domestic Enemies: The Reconquista. It is a cautionary tale about the Balkanization of America, which will result from our present out-of-control illegal alien invasion, when combined with a national economy in recession, and political correctness run amuck. With a mega-amnesty presently looming for the 12 to 30 million illegal aliens now in the USA, (plus their family members in an endless chain), the fictional events portrayed in this novel seem more likely than ever to occur. If you want to pull back the curtain and see America's future, read Domestic Enemies: The Reconquista. "

the consequences of non-white immigration, aided and abetted, in the author's view, by the weak-minded liberals who failed to resist it

The subtext of course being that anyone who resists untrammeled immigration is a racist.

Makes me want to buy it ASAP.

[JennysCool]

We’d better ping him, don’tcha think?

[Petronski]

Complete hatchet job.

“ASAP”

I would before reality overcomes fiction. You might actually find your blood boiling as chpaters in the book hit too close to home.

Susy Buchanan’s hissy fit is a classic. She’s more paranoid than the psychos in any mental hospital.

[CodeToad]

What? Ping Travis? I thought he likes surprises. lol.

“The subtext of course being that anyone who resists untrammeled immigration is a racist.”

Seems that way. Even a good friend of mine who is a first generation American whose parents are from Mexico is called a racist by the Mexican side of his family because he supports his country and demands illegal aliens be prosecuted and deported.

“Susy Buchanan’s hissy fit is a classic.”

I bet Travis takes it as a badge of honor...and humor.

“Complete hatchet job”

Notice all of her negative adverbs and adjectives.

With the conclusion that to resist invasion is racist.

And that invasion of the United States is a civil right, since to resist would be racist. But only if the invasion is conducted by non-whites.

Except if they are from Spain, a white country, but apparently non-white because they are hispanic.

Crystal clear logic, right?

And to think, any vociferousness about this subject a little over a year ago on FR was verboten. Thank-God the trash was swept out and the banned people of conviction were given amnesty.

[HundredDollars]

Sounds to me like it would make a great movie: Busty women, lesbian seduction, sodomy, sexual asphyxiation, and lots of violence. It should be right up Hollywood’s alley.

[dforest]

Susy must have deficient boobies.

[indcons]

I interacted with Travis (among many other FReepers) when we defeated the Bush-Kennedy-McCain shamnesty bill. He and I hold very similar thoughts on illegal immigration. If he is a paranoid nativist, where does that leave me?

For the record - I am a non-Caucasian, first generation, legal immigrant.

El Pingo to bcsco, travis mcgee, 2nddivisionvet.

May I be the first to say “Bump your post to the top.”

"In 1973, a Frenchman named Jean Raspail wrote a bitter and paranoid novel about the "invasion" of his native land by starving Third World refugees."

Interesting. An exceptionally accurate prognostication is deemed "paranoid". Meanwhile, apocolyptic auguries authored at about the same time -- such as The Population Bomb are still being called visionary. (Nothing at all paranoid about predicting mass famines that never took place.)
