The Subway Canaries

MISSION STATEMENT OF THE SUBWAY CANARIES

SJ Reidhead — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 22:24:28 -0600

The purpose of The Subway Canaries is to expose intellectually dishonest conservative ideological hypocrisy.

The Subway Canaries are stalwart Republicans who are dismayed at the direction subversively extreme conservative ideologues are taking the GOP.

The Subway Canaries feel if the true agenda of these individuals and organizations are not exposed to the light of day, the Republican Party will either become the party of Extreme Right Wing Hate and Racism or be forever relegated to a minority party.

This is our only agenda. It is an agenda of truth and intellectual honesty - Truth, Justice and the American Way!

The Subway Canaries are Republican First and conservative second. Any other way is a betrayal of the Republican Party.

Anti-Catholic Minuteman Expose (Video)

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 12:25:31 -0600

THESE ARE THE MINUTEMEN

NOTE: I was planning to a piece on the FLDS (I have some new information) but was side-tracked by this story. I think this is something that needs to be told. I know I am telling it one-sided, against the Minutemen in California. But what I have found is so repulsive and so vile it needs to be exposed to the light of day. It is obvious someone is going to cross the line one of these days and shots are going to be fired. I have a feeling it will be a Minuteman or one of their supporter who will do the shooting. When this happens and a defense is made, naturally the Hispanic is going to be the evil one.

I think these videos are terribly important. They show how abjectly evil these people are.

Do you have the courage to watch these videos? There are a number of them at Minutemen Unvarnished – and take nearly an hour to watch. Watch the video “Do You Believe in Jesus” as the San Diego Minutemen harass parishioners at St. Peter’s Catholic Church in Fallbrook. This is in Fallbrook, CA.

Now see how it is portrayed in the local media.

If this is what Sheriff Joe is allowing in Maricopa County, then he is as vile as are these individuals. I don’t care what side of the immigration argument you are on. If you think this is good, decent, and patriotic, then you are seriously disturbed and as evil as are these individuals. When you start harassing people attending church, and mace people as they are going into church as this video shows you are as bad as they are.

ANTI CATHOLIC A TREND?
After watching these videos, it appears to me that there is an anti-Catholic. I’ve been covering the anti-immigration crowd’s anti-Catholic bigotry for several days. Yesterday mentioned that Harold Hutchinson at Called As Seen had picked up on the anti-Catholic bigotry of Tom Tancredo and Lou Dobbs. Harold references a WSJ piece about how they “insulted the Pope”. l The Opinionated Catholic has more. JJ mentions an editorial at Modern Commentaries about Michelle Malkin and her anti-Catholic rants. It is obvious there is a strong anti-Catholic bias in the whole anti-immigration movement, promoted by John Tanton and his dislike of anyone who is not lily white. Why?
LA Times

“…t's not too surprising that one of the pontiff's most vocal critics was the poor man's Howard Beale, CNN personality Lou Dobbs. He's made something of a specialty of bashing the Catholic hierarchy in recent years, as part of his pseudo-populist campaign for ratings. Dobbs charged Benedict with "mixing religion and politics ... in many ways insulting our country, talking about the need to be welcoming. ... I really don't appreciate the bad manners of a guest telling me in this country and my fellow citizens what to do." Well, there you go, though the pope got off easy compared with L.A. civic leaders, whom Dobbs blasted after an earlier -- and totally misleading -- report on Special Order 40 and the case of Jamiel Shaw II, a young man allegedly shot to death by an illegal immigrant who is a gang member. Dobbs called city officials "liars" and singled out Police Chief Bill Bratton, whose defense of Special Order 40 -- which puts certain restrictions on when police can inquire about a suspect's immigration status -- the broadcaster called "irresponsible" and "disgusting politics." "And I think every one of you in the city of Los Angeles, running that city, supporting a sanctuary city and trying to excuse what happened to that family, I think it is contemptible," said Dobbs….”

THE VIDEOS
(WARNING: These videos feature profanity and obscene gestures)

(MigraMatters) If this is an example of those who are anti-illegal and are “Minutemen” in San Diego, then I’d rather be castigated for being against them. These people are filthy, vile, nasty trash. This is a link to a video. I am not doing an inbed, because of the filthy language. From Minutemen Unvarnished comes a ‘best of’ collection of videos about the Minutemen. Maybe you might want to ask for your money back (if they can account for it). You might want to watch “I’m Allowed to Threaten People”. The jerk is wearing a minuteman cap. Look at the people who are with the Minutemen. I wouldn’t let them in my driveway, let alone associate with them. The one “Keep Your Hands to Yourselves” features San Diego Minuteman Founder Jeff Schwilk. Try watching the one “Are You Legal?”

How about this Minuteman waving his flag? He’s nothing but a thug. Watch “Remember after the Alamo” to see what these people look like. They are scary. Watch “No Talking Chickens”.   “Hello Witches” features the leader of the San Diego Minutemen harassing two activists. Watch as the Minutemen follow the women, attempting to terrorize them. Do you really think these are nice people? If I were those women, I would have been terrified.   The San Diego Minutemen were founded by Jim Gilchrist.

In “If You Love Mexicans” Jeff Schwilk accosts a Home Depot customer. A minuteman then spits at the camera person.    “Get out of here” Jeff Schwilk goes after a Home Depot customer.   “Morning Wetbacks” shows how gentile the Minutemen are.

In “Vermin of Vista” Jeff Schwilk harasses and intimidates another activist. This man is seriously disturbed. I can’t believe people actually believe the you know what these people spout.    In “Bring It On” he tries to mace someone who disagrees with him.    In “He’s Trying to Scare Her” our boy Jeff finally gets picked up by a cop for harassing women.

Can you watch these videos and not call them evil? Do you really want to have sympathy for them and for their cause?   These people think nothing of interrupting a church service because the people inside are Hispanic.   “Can I Get Your Name” is the video. Then in “The Church is Nothing but Pimps” just shows how vile they are, using a loud speaker to blast a church service. Obviously Sheriff Joe isn’t the only one who doesn’t give a rip about disrupting church services. They call the Catholic Church nothing but pimps. Too bad these people can’t be arrested for disturbing a worship service.

Why don’t decent people realize how nasty these individuals are? “I gotta be Freakin’ Rank” shows this same bunch disrupting a funeral so they can harass people near-by. Obviously they have no morality or decency. In this one, a Minuteman did not wear deodorant, and then fans his nasty body in front of Hispanics. A woman is speaking Spanish. They keep yelling at her to shut up.

The Secessionist Movement

SJ Reidhead — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 14:06:03 -0600

SECESSIONIST MOVEMENT

The American Secessionist Blog has not been updated in 6 months – but you need to know what it is.
Secessionist Net
First North American Secessionist Conference
Sedition Movements in the US
Middlebury Institute

STATE WIDE MOVEMENTS
Free South Carolina
Free Maine
Hawaii
North Carolina
Vermont
New Hampshire
Massachusetts
Alaska
New England Alliance

Some of the goals of a “Free South Carolina” are

“…*...decide the abortion issue for ourselves. No longer would Federal courts be able to lord over us. Most South Carolinians would probably like to see the Federal court decision that gave us abortion overturned. Regardless, it would be for us to decide, not some remote judge.

*...eliminate affirmative-action entirely and root out the influences of "poltical-correctness" and multiculturalism from our government and society.

  *...prevent our soldiers from being sent to die overseas for United Nations nation-building projects. Our soldiers would guard our national territory and lend aid to our allies if invaded.

  *...stop illegal immigration and Third World immigration in general and rigorously guard our borders. We could heavily fine or strip business licenses from businesses and people that employ or house illegals….” 

Another goal of a “Free South Carolina” is to remove Lindsey Graham from office.

SOUTHERN ACTIVISM
I consider myself a ‘southerner’ having been born in Florida and having grown up in South Carolina. Things like this give the South a bad name. http://www.southernheritagepac.org/deck/deck.php

Note the League of the South and their activity in defeating immigration reform. This isn’t about immigration reform – it is about extremists who have figured out a way to rattle ‘conservative’ cages, co-opt talk radio, and have their way with the world.

Read the League of the South activity list.

The Abbeville Chapter of the League of the South advocates Secession.

CHRISTIAN EXODUS
According to a friend who lives in Oconee County, SC, you had better be aware of Christian Exodus and the problems it can cause.

NOT REPUBLICAN
“Pro” Southern is NOT Republican.
Contrary to the hyped up extreme conservatives who now dominate talk radio and defeated immigration reform, we are not dealing with a full deck. We are dealing with a well-organized, NON REPUBLICAN, very vocal minority. My worry is the fact if they can destroy immigration reform I think we need to be afraid – very afraid – of what they will attempt next.

How familiar are you with the “Southern Party”?
Christian Exodus is not Republican and is pro Ron Paul.
Missouri Bushwacker Blog

The Conservative Exodus Project
The Pledge

“We, the undersigned, petition the Republican Party to support real conservative candidates for the 2008 presidential nomination.

In the belief that the Republican Party has become too liberal, we pledge, unless a suitable candidate is selected for the GOP 2008 presidential nomination, to stay home or vote third party (e.g. Constitution Party).

Returning to its liberal roots, the GOP has recently become the party of big business, neoliberal globalism, and unwise interventionism - not the party of conservatism.

The following presidential candidates are UNACCEPTABLE: John McCain, Rudolph Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Sam Brownback, Mike Huckabee, Chuck Hagel, Condoleezza Rice, et al. They all support the third-world invasion of the United States.

Unless a candidate is chosen who is tough on immigration (e.g. Ron Paul, Tom Tancredo, Duncan Hunter, or another candidate yet to announce), we shall have no choice but to vote third party.
We would like to stress these five points.

(1) We oppose the third-world invasion of the United States, and reject amnesty and any path to citizenship for illegals. We support deportation, attrition, and massive reductions in legal immigration, especially from the third world.

(2) We oppose free trade, the support of which has become an ideological suicide pact. Free trade is both destroying our economy and undermining our sovereignty. Historically, conservatives have opposed free trade, and they should, but many in the GOP have been "neoconned" on this issue.
(3) We support a moral candidate, critical of secularism, who embodies the virtues of the Christian Western tradition.

(4) We oppose the illegal neocon war in Iraq. The transformation of the Middle East to liberal democracy is Jacobin, not conservative.

(5) We wish to see big government reduced in size - in all three branches - and for many offices and functions to be returned to the states, where they Constitutionally belong.

 Unless the above criteria are met, we pledge to stay home or vote third-party in 2008….”

WHICH LEADS US TO…
If Islamic terrorists now have advanced degrees, financial opportunity, and are the ‘right’ people for immigration -

We are dealing with the voices of hate who have infiltrated an issue and are manipulating it and conservatives within the GOP for their own agenda. Unfortunately they are like the little kid who cried wolf once too often. Illegal Mexican migrants have nothing – ABSOLUTELY NOTHING – to do with TERROR. The problem is our anti-immigration minuteman voices are promoting this very idea. We keep yelling “terror” where it isn’t – and now that we need to yell “terror” and focus attention on individuals who are:

LEGAL
WELL-EDUCATED
PROFESSIONAL
MIDDLE-EASTERN
NO CRIMINAL BACKGROUND
FAIRLY WELL OFF FINANCIALLY
"MODERATE ISLAMIC"

But the little minutemen, et. al and all their adorable little friends have cried ‘terror’ so much – is anyone now going to listen?

The one portion of that now defeated immigration bill I opposed was the emphasis on the following for guest workers: I am glad that I did.

LEGAL
WELL-EDUCATED
PROFESSIONAL
NO CRIMINAL BACKGROUND
FAIRLY WELL OFF FINANCIALLY

AND TO THE VOICE OF DOOM…
The GOP can’t win elections without moderates.

HOW DOES THIS ALL TIE-IN
For over a year I have been saying the GOP is being manipulated, used and infiltrated by the forces of evil. Stormfront, the white supremacist, neo-nazi web forum is preaching just this.

Conservatives who claim to be Republican are manipulating our public officials. These “conservatives” have nothing to do with conservative and everything to do with the KKK, and other adorable little warm and fuzzy hate groups. They have co-opted public opinion for their agenda and are currently basking in the glow of their victory. How far are good decent people going to allow this to go.
