National Data | March Jobs: Eight Years of American Gains Wiped Out By Immigrants
U.S. workers were hammered again in March with large payroll losses, pushing the total number of jobs lost since the recession began to 5.1 million, according to the Labor Department. (See the report: PDF) Payroll employment fell by 663,000 in March. The other employment survey--of Households rather than businesses--revealed an even steeper decline--861,000. Non-Hispanics bore the brunt of the month's bloodbath:
Binghamton Immigration Massacre
You can imagine how the Mainstream Media was itching to start typing denunciations of hate-filled white male anti-immigration rednecks when the news came in today that 13 people had been shot dead at an immigration center.
Just like JFK's assassination set off the 1960s triumph of the Left because of the media's instant assumption that some rightwing redneck in Dallas had done it. (It eventually turned out that the shooter had defected to the Soviet Union, where he met his wife, who was then living with her uncle, a colonel in the secret police, but who remembers that?)
Not So Feel-Good Immigration Story: Gunman ID'd as "Jiverly Voong"--Apparently Vietnamese
The same Binghamton website mentioned below has this:
A federal law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity told the Associated Press the shooter has been found dead in the building. The shooter has identification saying he was 42-year-old Jiverly Voong.[Binghamton shooting leaves a dozen dead April 3, 2009]
Feel-Good Immigration Story From Binghamton
This story appeared on the Binghamton Pressconnects.com site less than an hour ago.
For more than a century, Broome County has been a beacon for immigrants seeking a better life.
Binghamton Update: This Is An Immigration Story, Not A Gun Control Story
First, the town's name is spelled Binghamton, after its founder, an old-style American named Bingham. I spelled it wrong, a couple of times below.
Second, you can expect this to be spun as a gun-control story, as the Virginia Tech Massacre and the Long Island Railroad shooting were. New York State has particularly savage victim-disarmament laws, although they're not as bad upstate as they are in New York City. There are already laws that forbid, but do not prevent, ownership of the gun used by the shooter.
Shooting in New York Immigrant Aid Center
My heart goes out to the all families affected by the recent shooting. James Fulford has pointed out, the shooter was an East Asian male. Mass immigration and the accompanying financial crisis have created an inherently volatile situation in the US.

James Bowman has a discussion of the Virginia Tech Massacre, school shootings, and passivity that starts like this:
On American Weapons in Mexico, Fox News Disputes "90%" Claim
The Mexican government, as I've reported before, complains about guns being smuggled from the U.S. to drug cartels in Mexico and even criticizes our gun rights as "absurd". As Mexico's Attorney General put it in 2007: "American law seems absurd to me, because ….the citizens can easily acquire arms. American society lives the consequences of this on a daily basis..."
Foreign Lawyers an Insult, Indian Lawyer Says
I remember the chuckle I had reading Peter Brimelow's account of telephone calls to the Indian Embassy to see what it took to get Indian citizenship in Alien Nation (you've got to be Indian, of course).
