Budapest & Half Moon Bay: The Value Of Perspective - The ... (The American Conservative)

Watching my country disintegrate from abroad, and confronting the fragility of narratives we use to obscure rather than enlighten.

They achieved the American dream, but knew that to avoid it becoming the American nightmare for their children, they had to get out and re-embed themselves in a culture that is still intact. What I think about is how the culture that produced me and other LSU students taught us that it was perfectly normal to binge-drink to the point of blackout. The first time I came to understand that that wasn't normal was when I was visiting the Netherlands one summer in the late 1980s, sitting out on a terrace drinking beer with Dutch friends, when one of them said we needed to drink up and go, because that bus that just pulled up is full of Norwegian tourists, and they're going to swamp the place, drink all the beer, and get rowdy. I was a binge drinker too, because I was an American college student, and considered it the natural way of living. But I have come over the past two years of living and working in Central Europe to see that these people may not be strongly religious (Poland excepted), but they still have an intact culture, and that they are totally vulnerable to having the ideas and practices that have led to social disintegration in the US and western Europe forced on them. I see what a damn mess we have made of our own country, and I get really defensive of the Hungarians, the Slovaks, and other peoples of what we used to call Eastern Europe, who are regarded by American elites and western European elites as backwards postcommunist hicks who need to be educated in liberal democracy. Yet to live in a peaceful European city (and Budapest is not the only one, of course) and to see my own country from afar is to wonder why we can't have nice things like they do. We accept gun violence as a fact of life in the United States, and it really is true that we have a Second Amendment, and, well, all the things I said at the top of this post. And I was startled by how startled they were, because I had come to take it for granted that going out on the streets without a worry in my head for my safety was normal. And then he began to wonder why exactly it is that the left-wing government, and the left-wing media, have an interest in maintaining this myth about Hungary. and NYC, were deployed to protect synagogues and Jewish businesses from Muslim violence during a spasm of violence having to do with events in Israel, in the Hungarian capital they were nowhere to be seen. I must confess to being startled by my own reaction to these events, living in Europe as I have for nearly all of the past year.

7 Killed in Half Moon Bay as California Mourns Earlier Mass Shooting (The New York Times)

The police arrested a 67-year-old suspect, who the county sheriff said was “fully cooperating.”

A volunteer asked a police officer standing guard at the door what size diapers they needed. Sheriff Corpus said the police believed the suspect was a worker at the plant nursery where one of the attacks occurred. Sarah Prentice, 31, started crying while on her way to the center to drop off blankets. Video of the substation parking lot where the suspect was arrested shows three police officers pulling him from a maroon S.U.V. Lorena González Fletcher, president of the California Labor Federation, said that many farmworkers in the region were in a vulnerable position because they have low wages and are often on temporary work visas or are undocumented. The gunman drove from one site to the other, she said, and a semiautomatic handgun was found in his vehicle. The sheriff’s office said late Monday that it was working to identify the victims and notify their families. “The amount of stress that’s been on this community for weeks is really quite high.” The beaches are a popular surfing destination, and the inland mountains are home to one of the state’s oldest agricultural communities, which employs migrant workers. There were children on the scene at the incidents. The local authorities were working with the F.B.I. Eamonn Allen of the sheriff’s department.
