Politically Correct Blackmail

I almost started this post with “I don’t believe this ....” but after watching the PC crowd over the last 10-15 years, I am saddened to say, yes, I can easily believe this will happen ....

Britain Could Pay One Million Dollars To Brazilian Family

LONDON, (AFP) - Britain’s Metropolitan Police could pay up to one million dollars in damages to the family of the innocent Brazilian who was shot dead in a bungled anti-terror chase in London, a newspaper reported. The Daily Mail said John Yates, deputy assistant commissioner at Scotland Yard, was expected to make an initial payment to the family of electrician Jean Charles de Menezes, 27.

However, legal experts quoted by the Daily Mail believe the force could end up paying up to one million dollars to the impoverished family. Police officials were quoted as saying the final figure will be “very substantial.” In Sao Paulo, the Globonews website said a British government delegation had arrived in Brazil Sunday and would travel Monday to de Menezes’ home town of Gonzaga, in southeast Brazil, to meet his parents to discuss compensation.

De Menezes was killed on July 22 after British police followed him from a London address they had been watching in connection with four failed bomb attacks the day before. Mistaking him for a suicide bomber, officers cornered the Brazilian inside a subway train and shot him eight times at close range, seven times in the head. He was buried in Gonzaga on Friday in a ceremony that attracted an estimated 10,000 people and was marked by anti-British protests.

You already know the facts: (1) Menezes was in the country illegally since his visa had expired, (2) he was seen wearing a heavy overcoat in the Tube in July, (3) when police tried to detain him for questioning he ran, (4) he resisted police until they shot him.

Now, what does this tell us about the recently deceased? 

Well, it tells me:

• He didn’t care a fig about British law or else he would have (a) applied to renew his visa or (b) gone back to Brazil. This made him a criminal and an illegal alien, according to British law. As such, he should have been jailed or deported anyway. Thanks to British Liberals like Cherie Blair, wife of PM Tony Blair, it is almost impossible to find or get rid of these creeps who defy British law once they get into the country. Verdict: criminal.


• He was badly overdressed for the occasion. As the saying goes, only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the noonday sun but our criminal from Brazil felt the need to dress up in a heavy overcoat in July in the stuffy confines of the London Tube. This man would probably have been stupid enough to try to stroll through airport security in New York with a dozen box cutters in his pockets a few weeks after 9/11. Verdict: stupid.


• He obviously had a guilty conscience about something else why would he run away when police shouted at him to stop and answer questions. He ran away and struggled with police when they finally caught up to him. What was on his mind (beside the five bullets he earned for his stupidity)? British Bobbies are the most polite, easygoing police force in the world. What did he have to fear? Verdict: guilty.


• Scenario: you’re surrounded by heavily armed cops who are obviously very pissed at you for running away from them. What do you do? Me, I’d fall to the ground spread-eagled, face-down, and crying as loud as I could, “MOMMA, HELP ME! PLEASE DON’T SHOOT! PLEASE! PLEASE!”. It never hurts, in a situation like this, to let the nervous policemen know you are a craven coward who has just pissed his pants. Verdict: defiant.

There you have it .. a stupid criminal who felt guilty about something and decided to defy the police. And for this, his family and the bleeding heart Liberals in Britain think the government should pay this blackmail money of $1 million to this bunch of extortionists in Brazil. NO, SIR! Tell them to go pound sand. Tell them to s**t in one hand and wish in the other. Tell them to bugger off. And then kick the rest of the Menezas family out of Britain, whether they’re legal citizens or not. No more Mr. Nice Guy!

Britain should just tell Brazil: “YOU WANT A MILLION OUT OF US? COME AND GET IT, ASSHATS! WE’LL MEET YOU AT THE SHORE! CHEERIO!”

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
