Springfield, Ohio—Federally Imposed Immigration Disaster

Focusing on Missing Cats and Dogs Misses Much More Important Issues
Springfield, Ohio, is a city in mid-western Ohio that had a population of 59.000 in 2020. But now in 2024, it has in addition 15,000 to 20,000 immigrants from Haiti, and most of these came in 2024. I believe 20,000 is the most credible figure, which continues to grow. At a September 9 City Council meeting, many Springfield residents expressed their outrage at the City Council for agreeing to or letting this happen. The issue of missing pets was far overshadowed by issues of public safety, housing problems, “squatters” infringing on homes, concern for their children, and the burden on education, healthcare, and the tax base. At least one woman said she and her husband have had enough; it was time to leave Springfield. Many others are undoubtedly now thinking of leaving Springfield. She further complained:

Against the Reigning Tyranny of Cancel Culture
Twenty-nine years ago in 1995, Peter Brimelow wrote a book entitled; Alien Nation: Common Sense about America’s Immigration Disaster. Nine years before, the 1986 Amnesty and deliberate Congressional resistance to enforcing immigration laws exploded illegal immigration.
Congress had mandated in 1990 that the Jordan Immigration Reform Commission, chaired by former Member of Congress and Black civil rights leader, Barbara Jordan, investigate and make recommendations to reform and control immigration, which were presented to Congress in 1997. Jordan had passed away in 1996.

Kursk is a city of 440,000 in the Kursk Oblast (state) of southwestern Russia, bordering northeastern Ukraine. The city of Kursk sits mostly on the eastern side of the Don River. The population of Kursk Oblast is only about 1.1 million. Before World War II it was almost 3.0 million. However, it is the site of one of the richest iron ore deposits in the world and is also wealthy in rare minerals. It was once heavily forested, but now has some of the richest farmland in the world. About 96 percent of the population is Russian and about 69 percent of the population belong to the Russian Orthodox Church. The Kursk Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) is one of the three largest in Russia, which is situated about 24 miles west of the city. Kursk is about 316 miles or 7 hours south of Moscow.

Compromising Scripture to Advance Secular-Humanist Agendas
In the Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 7:15, Jesus warns:
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.”
In verses 16-20, Jesus continues to warn us and show us how we will recognize them.
“You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.

The Secret War in Laos February 6, 1967
On February 5, 1967, a USAF Forward Air Controller flying a single engine Cessna O-1F Birddog spotter aircraft, call sign Nail 65, was hit by antiaircraft fire. Nail 65 was coordinating an attack by two Navy A-4 Skyhawks on an underwater bridge and North Vietnamese trucks parked under camouflage in the mountainous Mu Gia Pass on the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Nail 65 pilot was Captain Lucius “Lamar” Heiskell from an O-1 detachment of the 23rd Tactical Air Support Squadron positioned with the Air Commando Wing at Nakhon Phanom Royal Thai Air Base (RTAB). Realizing his O-1 was too badly damaged to escape the mountainous area of western North Vietnam, Heiskell managed to climb to 1,000 feet above the terrain and then bailed out. This was reported immediately by an accompanying Nail O-1 wingman to Crown, the C-130 communications center. Successful bail out from an O-1 was actually rare because their combat missions were usually close to the ground. Heiskell’s bail out was successful, but he had to spend the night on the ground, evading North Vietnamese Army (NVA) searchers, but was able to contact Crown and other USAF aircraft sparingly when he believed it was safe. First hiding his parachute, he hid himself in a “crack” and was almost walked over by searchers several times.
