Thanks for the ping Pokey.

It’s gradually beginning to dawn on US Europhiles that the Continent has done everything the American Left has wanted for years and it doesn’t seem to be working out.

Let's just hope it is also beginning to dawn on the "undecideds" here in America.

It takes some considerable skill to wind up, as Europe has, with every indicator going haywire: total gun control plus rapidly increasing gun violence plus stratospheric property crime

If they don't get "dawned" we could end up in much worse shape - A Hillary and AlGore Eutopia.

You’re six times more likely to be mugged in London than in New York. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea has a worse crime rate than Harlem.

Thank you, Mayor Guiliani...for undoing the David Dinkins Democratic/ liberal/ multicultural sensitivity/criminal trend that was keeping New Yorkers afraid to walk the streets.

"It belongs in a completely unrelated thread."

Nooooooh...we never wouldda guessed....

Meanwhile, France has a presidential candidate who makes oven jokes, a foreign minister who believes in the international Jewish conspiracy, and a number-one bestseller which claims the plane that crashed into the Pentagon never existed. But look on the bright side: Europe may be ‘mean-spirited and violent’, but at least it’s not American.

LOL, right on target.

In the Los Angeles Times, Sebastian Rotella was perplexed: ‘As crime has dropped in the United States in recent years, it has worsened in much of Europe, despite generous welfare states designed to prevent US-style inequality and social conflict.’

[TopQuark]

Pokey, you always get Mark Steyn first. Is he your cousin?

[piasa]

Can't sit on the fence, you'll get shot off it in this war!

Or as I always say: "Those who sit on fences, soon cut off the circulation to their balls."

[GretchenEE]

But in the fetid public housing of London, Paris, Frankfurt and Rotterdam the government will pay you to sit around the flat all day plotting world domination.

Bump

Thank you for the ping JH2.

They're not smug, they're hate filled from jealousy and dislike for their own socialist mess.
