I didn’t want to comment on the killing of Renée Nicole Good. First off, it has nothing to do with me. The only link Good has to Ireland, is that she was a missionary in Northern Ireland.

And the people who are shooting your ideological enemies in the face, today, are the same people who could very well be shooting you in the face tomorrow. Hence, the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis (R) actually came out against this shooting. As I said before: one probably has to have a personality disorder to join either the police or the army. Perhaps police forces and armies are necessary in this world; however, in my view they are necessary evils.

In Northern Ireland, we have an anomoly. We have a police force that is secret; we have a police force that is armed; we have a police force that allows its officers to carry weapons, whilst off duty.

Now the police service of Northern Ireland is not ICE, not by a long shot; however, there are parrallels. All of the other police forces in the British Isles are mostly unarmed.

However, the term “U.S. Citizen” has suffered from hyper-inflation, due, in large part to immigration. When the U.S. was a white racial republic, the term “US citizen” actually meant something. The founders were explicit: the republic was founded for their posterity. However, a citizenship that anyone can claim; well, that becomes sorta worthless. If anyone can become a U.S. citizen, then U.S. citizenship is sorta worthless.

Liberals—those to the right of Leftists, in this context—largely turned a blind eye to non-citizens being denied constitutional rights, even though the courts said that the norms of the U.S. constitution applied everywhere that the U.S. was the sovereign or de facto sovereign power. Obama never shut down the concentration camp at Guantanamo bay. Although he did attempt cosmetic changes in an attempt to bring some of what goes on there in line with constitutional norms.

Also, in a polarized society, one’s political opponents no longer inhabit the same moral universe. At the beginning, the Left and Right, in America, had a shared vision of what America is was and should be, however, they differed on the issue of federalism or antifederalism. Today, there is no agreement between Left and Right on just about anything. Thus appeals to Renée Good’s being a “U.S. citizen” from the Left are utterly worthless, given the polarisation of America.

I really only have an expressable opinion on this one aspect of this controversy: appeals by Liberals and Leftists to Renée Good’s being a U.S. citizen, and why they are likely to fall upon the radical right’s deaf ears.

In Ireland, “Irish citizen” is actually a sarcasm, describing some invader who was magically alchemised into his/her becoming Irish by way of a magical piece of paper, to wit, an Irish Passport.

And, of course, as my good friend Alex, who has since gone to be with the ground, “magic paper” such as passports are merely the secular version of “magic water”. Indeed, the idea of a birth certificate might have actually come from the Roman Catholic Baptismal certificate.

Catholics believed that magic water could turn the inhabitants of Africa into Christians—i.e. civilized white men, but with a different skin tone—and Liberals believe that the alchemy of magic documents, such as passports, can more or less accomplish the same thing. Catholics believed in the magic of catachesis, and, as Revilo P. Oliver points out: Liberals believe in the magic of education. Education, very often, to Liberals, is a snake oil that will cure whatever ails society.

Thus, we are still under the tyranny of Christian axiology; of Christian assumptions; or, as Oliver might have put it, the reformed Church of Marxianism has superceded the unreformed Catholic and Protestant Churches.
