    Diversity is just one of the many deeply held Sacraments of the unholy New Left. This term was virtually unheard of 25 years ago. Obama is the figurehead for a new and powerful left wing movement in the U.S. It has been over a decade or two in the making. George Soros among other left wing super rich are largely behind the organizational end. He spent umpteen millions for legalizing POT alone. The school systems are packed with liberal teachers who teach their views in order to persuade innocent children who are unaware of the sneaky way their teachers are trying to manipulate them. All of the resources like textbooks, videos, web-sites are all skewed heavily to the left. They have taken almost complete control from K-throught 12 and the universities are even worse. The media has become so unbelievably biased that they are putting the future of our country at risk. The Unions are backing these same screwball, leftists. But worst of all our 19th Ward "Leadership" is part of the team. The Middle East is in flames, all of our hard fought gains have evaporated. Russia is on the march. China has us by the short hairs. Our military is being purposely and systematically dissected and dismantled. They are installing cameras EVERYWHERE. Get involved. Get active. Speak up. If we get four more years of a Democrat in the WH we could be in for a time of true horror. The worst Republican is better than the best Democrat.

    Diversity is a code word for "anti - white bias" or "white privilege". It literally has college folk all dizzy repeating this inane mantra endlessly. It is the liberal left who are obsessed with race.

    Here in the 19th ward diversity has been advanced in ways many may not understand. For starters take a look at St. Xavier's Sociology Department and also look at the voting records of our elected officials. The Catholic Church has advanced it's own Social Justice agenda.

    When I was a kid I first heard "Diversity" when I lived in the St. Sabina parish where crime rose.. Years later I lived in Tommy Moore and heard that word and crime rose.. Now that word is being mentioned in the 19th Ward. I will now move to a safe, peaceful neighborhood where people never heard that word.

    "Achieving Diversity" is often a euphemism for practicing racial discrimination.

    Can we add the word "transparency" to this list. Transparency is synonymous with "governmental gridlock". Here in the 19th ward, we see it literally takes years to advance developmental projects. As an example, I remember a few years ago reading that Jantzen's was opening and the original recipes were being restored. Well, it finally opened about 2 years after it was announced it would. Same thing with the Buena Beef at 107th and Western. In the meantime, commercial vacancies along 95th Street in Evergreen Park are moving right along. Walmart, Marianos, Binny's, Tavern on the Green, and on Western Avenue, you have Meijers, Menards, Michaels. All sprung up within months. Meanwhile, we're still slogging along with the only new additions to the ward seemingly being red light and speed cameras. Thank God they finally started the development at 115th and Western. Maybe it'll be done before my as yet born grand kids outgrow their ability to use it.

      The "development" at 115th and Western makes it even harder to get around the 19th Ward. 115th Street should never have been closed down. This project will serve special interest groups and no one else.

    All "Diversity" is, is discrimination against White People. Diversity is designed to help everybody except the White Man and Woman. Therefore, it is Discriminatory in Nature. Remember this at Election time, and remember it is the Democrats who are pushing it so hard. Finally, remember your children and grand-children, who will suffer for many years under this Discrimination.
