On Saturday morning, before he murdered 11 people at a synagogue in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the killer announced his motive: He was “going
in” because a caravan of “invaders” was coming to destroy America. In
other words, the same fearmongering conspiracy theory that Donald Trump
and the Republican Party had been peddling for weeks. So, who is the
White House blaming on Monday morning? Besides the media? Late night
comedians:

Kellyanne Conway suggests that “the late-night comedians” and “the
unfunny people on TV shows” are responsible for the deadliest
anti-Semitic massacre in American history.

This is nothing but a narrative that your party has been squealing

I suppose if I were a Trumpite with half a working brain, I'd be
"working" overtime to try to find ways to rationalize Trump's racism and
other pig-like behavior. As for the refugees, I'm not overly concerned
about a few thousand Central Americans coming north for the opportunity
to leave behind the horrors of their homelands and find decent menial
work and safety for themselves and their children in the U.S.A. My

Ok Thanks. At least you've voiced your position. You are obviously
*for* allowing thousands of immigrants to illegally enter the USA.
No reason in your mind for Congress to change anything. Let Trump
deal with the problems of assimilating them into our society. All
it can do is make him look bad, right?

Oh ... did your grandparents on both sides immigrate illegally or
legally? Did they apply for citizenship in accordance with law
or did they sneak over the border and turn themselves in claiming
"asylum"?

This is nothing but a narrative that your party has been squealing
about since November of 2016 and is repeated so often that some
even believe it must be true.

So when is your party going to go on record regarding more immediate
issues like the caravan marching towards the border and another
already 3,000 strong beginning their march to Mexico and ultimately
to the US border?

Their silence is deafening.


I suppose if I were a Trumpite with half a working brain, I'd be
"working" overtime to try to find ways to rationalize Trump's racism and
other pig-like behavior. As for the refugees, I'm not overly concerned
about a few thousand Central Americans coming north for the opportunity
to leave behind the horrors of their homelands and find decent menial
work and safety for themselves and their children in the U.S.A. My
grandparents on both sides did the same thing.


OK lets just bus them all to DC suburbs and let them start their new

If they arrived by boat as my grandparents did in 1907, it's doubtful
that they entered the USA illegally. I recently came across my
grandfather's naturalization papers. He arrived from Sweden in 1907 at
the age of 17 and became naturalized in 1916. By then he was
married and had one son, my uncle, who was 10 years older than my
father. My uncle was a marine engineer. He and I shared the same

I am realizing that politicians just don't understand the mindset of a
well seasoned businessman. They are more accustom to grandstanding than
getting anything done which is why they can't fathom how successful
Trump has been so far in getting his campaign promises done.

Different way of thinking. We needed someone like him to shake things

Most of my people seemed to arrive in the 1600s or 1700s. I have the
immigration records on quite a few but no manifests.
I have found them born in UK somewhere and dying in the US.
Digging up the immigration records is a little tougher some time.
I am just trying to get them all back to Europe right now. I have over
50 now but we are looking at "great to the eight or tenth power"
grandparents in a few cases so the power of 2 sends back a pretty big
number of immigrants. The Oklahoma people seem to be the newcomers,
getting here in the mid to late 1700s
The folks around the road from Harry seem to be the earliest, a few
showing birth in England in the late 1500s and death in St Mary's
county in the early 1600s. There is even a born in Jamestown guy there
but it was later (1630s). I was amazed a few old geezers lived into
their 80s and even early 90s. The other thing is the men lived longer
than the women in those days.
It is also amazing that the farther back I went, the better the
records. Right around the Civil War (+/- 20 years) is where the black
holes showed up although my German seemed to fall out of the sky in
1827.
This stuff can really get addictive once you figure out how to look at
the documents and toss the bad leads. Ancestry.Com will send you down
a rabbit hole now and then. I was poking around in Boston around 1621
for a while, then I figured out it was a bad link. I had to back up a
generation and start over.

If they arrived by boat as my grandparents did in 1907, it's doubtful
that they entered the USA illegally. I recently came across my
grandfather's naturalization papers. He arrived from Sweden in 1907 at
the age of 17 and became naturalized in 1916. By then he was
married and had one son, my uncle, who was 10 years older than my
father. My uncle was a marine engineer. He and I shared the same
birthday (Oct 19th) although obviously he was here many years before
me.

More newcomers ;-)



(a little boating content)

Even found a picture of the ship my grandfather arrived on in Boston.

Also found his manifest ... he paid $10 for the voyage from Liverpool,
England via Greenland and then to Boston.

Interesting ship, Richard. I know those aren't sailing masks. Would those towers be directional for shortwave or radio?

Well, of course, we knew that!

Probably. Records indicate it had "steam quadruple-expansion engines
geared to twin propellers".

I looked it up on Wiki and it turns out it had an interesting history
and fate.

The SS Ivernia was owned by the British Cunard line and was primarily
built to transport immigrants from Europe to Boston and New York. When
WWI broke out it was hired by the British government as a troop transport.

From Wiki:

"In autumn of 1916, William Thomas Turner (made famous for being the
captain of RMS Lusitania at the time of her sinking) was given command.

On 1 January 1917, the Ivernia was carrying some 2,400 British troops
from Marseille to Alexandria, when at 10:12am she was torpedoed by the
German submarine UB-47 58 miles south-east of Cape Matapan in Greece, in
the Kythira Strait. The ship went down fairly quickly with a loss of 36
crew members and 84 troops. Captain Turner, who had been criticized for
not going down with the Lusitania (even though he had believed he was
the last person on board), remained on the bridge until all aboard had
departed in lifeboats and rafts "before striking out to swim as the
vessel went down under his feet."

It’s a colossal amount of tonnage the U-boats put to the bottom of the sea.

I’m sorry the ship was sunk, and sorry for the loss of lives ....
