What a breath of fresh air.<br /><br />Your article, 'hunkering after diversity', rings so true on the anomie part; I live in Southern Calif., I am a white women who is now a minority in the town she lives in. And I am LONELY. Yes, I have family and friends, but I'm tired of struggling with people who have no intention of fitting in.<br />I am moving to a FAR whiter, more American state soon. whisker childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01680930437690426871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-6927563015624039892011-03-30T10:19:34.873+11:002011-03-30T10:19:34.873+11:00I stumbled on this site recently, so my comments a...I stumbled on this site recently, so my comments are now possibly somewhat dated. However, in this case what struck me is that the good professor's study indicates no increase in racial strife due to diversity. That seems decidedly odd, if not downright false. I wonder just exactly how he defined "conflict". The news that we actually see here in the US is composed of occurences every day of crimes by blacks on whites, hispanic on black, black on hispanic, etc. Based on the cute tricks pulled by our various local police forces, only when it is a white on black crime do they report that it is racially motivated. I suspect that Putnam also employs this same statistical lie for his own studies, since it supports the standard kneejerk progressive narratives.investorcsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-58399928663801168232007-06-22T19:41:00.000+10:002007-06-22T19:41:00.000+10:00Prof. Putnam's research conclusions are quite inte...Prof. Putnam's research conclusions are quite interesting, I had seen them before, and they gel with my own personal experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-71895244512726055212007-06-22T10:32:00.000+10:002007-06-22T10:32:00.000+10:00As an author once told me regarding liberalism/fem...As an author once told me regarding liberalism/feminism:<BR/><BR/>"If the facts don't fit the program comrads; then the facts must be mistaken."<BR/><BR/>Bobby.NBobby.Nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494573597598152422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-41658932266228709342007-06-22T04:28:00.000+10:002007-06-22T04:28:00.000+10:00Of course he sticks with "diversity" as a principl...Of course he sticks with "diversity" as a principle. Liberalism starts with Ideas, not Realities, and if a Reality conflicts with an Idea, we all know which must give. Eventually he will end up in la-la land with some cockamamie "solution" to make diversity work the way his Idea says it must.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-10485770402175187342007-06-21T22:31:00.000+10:002007-06-21T22:31:00.000+10:00Francis, I wanted to keep the initial post short, ...Francis, I wanted to keep the initial post short, so I didn't much go into Professor Putnam's politics.<BR/><BR/>He is actually quite a politically correct liberal. It's a credit to his objectivity that he should publish research which runs so counter to liberal political positions. <BR/><BR/>Even so, he sticks with "diversity" as a principle, despite the findings of his own research.<BR/><BR/>I'll discuss this in more detail in the next entry.Mark Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15961688379656119701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-33754452354707729722007-06-21T18:42:00.000+10:002007-06-21T18:42:00.000+10:00He may have shied back from the obvious conclusion...He may have shied back from the obvious conclusions, but his research is nevertheless sufficiently "dangerous" to cost him a lot of grief.
