He has a long criminal record involving drug abuse, petty crime, money laundering and fraud. He is liar, a cheat and a con. All this was public knowledge long before he allegedly murdered 4 people. <br /><br />So why wasn't he deported? Because the people in Canada who are in charge of such things are incompetent and the laws are weak and toothless. The legal system in Canada might have been able to limp along and function more or less IF we hadn't gone multicultural and invited every con and criminal in the world to set up shop. Now it is a disaster. It is completely unable to deal with the level of crime and the type of criminals we have. <br /><br />Kembo's lawyer is already asking for a mistrial because the Vancouver Sun published a story about the case on the first day of the trial. WTF? This morning CBC briefly posted a story about the trial, and it was open to comments (surprisingly). Someone commented that we should bring back capital punishment and broadcast the execution on TV (the comment immediatly got many "thumbs up"). I was amazed that comment made it past the censors. I went back to look at it again, and found that the story and all the comments had been taken down. I guess it is not PC to publish news about a black refugee being a serial killer, con and fraudster. <br /><br />Here is a link about the case. I don't know why my links seem to get truncated sometime. Google Charles Kembo trial if the link doesn't work. <br /><br />http://www.primetimecrime.com/Recent/Murder/Charles_Kembo.htm <br /><br />Ok now I'm going to try and calm down and stop being angry and frightened about this. I've heard that 10% of all black men in the US will end up in jail sometime during their life, and the same is probably true in Canada (though such unPC statistics would never be made public). I'm going to try and think more about the other 90%.Melykinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-85219424525977717482010-04-06T22:09:41.364-07:002010-04-06T22:09:41.364-07:00This was in today's paper.

"One of my hob...As I put it in <a href="http://ukcommentators.blogspot.com/2008/10/boris-n-blair-and-minority-officers.html" rel="nofollow">a UK context :</a><br /><br />"One of my hobby-horses is the question of culture. For some reason UK liberals believe (or claim to) that, no matter whence you hail, the moment you set foot on UK soil the mystic properties of Old Albion (or Cymru or Alba or Erin) flow up through your shoes and make you just like the natives - in terms of your propensity to evil. But in the case of your propensity to good, all the good bits of your culture magically stay, enriching the poor natives by the power of diversity.<br /><br />Call me an idiot who doesn't understand how that works. I suggest that if you recruit, say, 500 police officers from a country - say Country X - famous for the corruption of its police, that the level of corruption in that group will be higher than in the police as a whole. It probably won't be as high as back in the old country (such magical-soil features as the likelihood of getting caught and of punishment will probably reduce the levels) but it'll still be higher than the statistical average. At which point someone will be able to point to the higher-than average level of disciplinaries and cry "racist !"<br /><br />None of the above would apply in the presence of a strong host culture into which the newcomers chose to integrate. But that's just what we haven't got. I imagine "we're British - we don't do that" is probably the kind of phrase that gets you chucked out of the Met."Labanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12031578024191117985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-86913994967866889572010-04-06T00:42:06.699-07:002010-04-06T00:42:06.699-07:00I think the reason why a disproportionate number o...I think the reason why a disproportionate number of recent immigrants are criminals is because the countries they have come from are mostly violent places where corruption and cheating is a way of life. If you have lived in a corrupt culture all your life, it might be difficult to change. Some of them probably immigrated with the idea in mind of setting up criminal operations and I think most of them are in Canada :(<br /><br />Look at the corruption perception index at transparency.org<br /><br />Armenia ranks 120th out of 180 (180 is most corrupt). <br /><br />http://www.transparency.org/policy_research/surveys_indices/cpi/2009/cpi_2009_table<br /><br />If less corrupt countries take in immigrants from corrupt countries they can expect many will bring corruption with them. <br /><br />This applies to people from the far east, too. In Richmond (a now mostly Chinese suburb of Vancouver) someone was running a company that guaranteed people would pass their driving test if they paid a large sum of money. It involved bribing a driving examiner (also an immigrant). It went on for 5 years before it was stopped. (Which perhaps explains why so many Chinese in Vancouver are such appalling drivers). Then there was an outfit that sold software that allowed restaurants to cheat on their tax. And many students newly arrived from China don't even understand that there is anything wrong with cheating. <br /><br />In corrupt countries everyone probably avoids paying tax because they know that corrupt government officals will just line their pockets with it. So they just look out for themselves and their families and try to cheat everyone else. There is no social capital in these places, which results a dysfunction hell hole. <br /><br />Somehow the Protestant countries of northern Europe found a way not to be as corrupt, and to have social capital, and hence were able to create safe functional countries, for a brief window at least. Now they are being over run by desperate people from unsafe dysfunctional countries. If this keeps up soon the whole world will be unsafe and dysfunctional. <br /><br />Wouldn't it be better to send out people from the functional countries to help the dysfunctional countries become functional, instead of letting people from the dysfunctional countries into the functional countries to turn them into dysfunctional hell holes? <br /><br />I tried to post something like this on the CBC site and they wouldn't post my comment (as usual).
