Boring white-bread Iceland is finally being enriched by Diversity. From Iceland Review:
Nine in Custody, Murder Investigation Ongoing
Jelena Ćirić
February 22, 2021Police are now working to map the movements of nine men that are in custody in connection to a murder committed in Reykjavík earlier this month. …
On February 13, Albanian national and resident of Iceland Armando Beqirai was shot to death outside his home in East Reykjavík. Armando was in his 30s and leaves behind an Icelandic wife and young child, who were in the home when the incident occurred. Eight of the nine individuals in custody in relation to the crime are foreign citizens and one is Icelandic.
The men are all in isolation in Hólmsheiði prison, which has never housed as many prisoners in isolation in its nearly five years of operation.

My daughter religiously watches the Carmen Sandiego series on Netflix. When the crime capers moved to Iceland, they humorously showed an empty Reykjavik jail and a cop confused when confronted with a crime.
One wonders if all the Viking viciousness was bred and socialized out of Scandinavia in a matter of centuries by Christianity, a huge argument for HBD, it seems. Either that or the Vikings were simply brutally efficient socialists who channeled their energies outward for a half millennium, then went inward? Whatever the case, no paradise lasts long when the rest of the world is invited.
Iceland’s small but fairly agreeable population was also excellent for conducting genetic studies, since they were fairly homogeneous and often compliant with any directions given. Sounds like in both counts that will be difficult in the future.
Welcome to the future, Iceland. Welcome.
Icelandic dirt lacking in magic. Gosh!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯¯
Can I go with the assumption that no mention of the background of the suspects means they are not Icelanders?
On top of that, do the media outlets that keep using this trick think everyone else is a complete moron and never notices?
Can we assume the Icelandic wife is the reason Armando was allowed entry into Iceland? How many Albanians have they let into the country and are they getting even more vibrant than that in the immigration policy?
Does not compute. When did you figure you’d ever read a sentence fragment like this?
It’s not the NY Times, or I’d wonder, but this writer probably means that other suspect is actually an Icelandic person by ethnicity. I wonder whether this murder was personal. Why you need to hire 8 Albanians is another question. Since the guy who was shot wasn’t a citizen of Iceland either, but just a “resident”, I guess that the “past to citizenship” over there is a bit slippery, on the ice and all..
Albanians have a mysterious phenotype:
https://thetab.com/uk/2020/08/11/rita-ora-isnt-black-shes-a-blackfish-and-here-are-the-receipts-170436
Who in their right mind would invite Albanians to come?
Seriously, the sane people in the West should pull together and provide a territory for all the white people who are unhappy with their own nation’s people and culture and love “diversity” to go live in … and invite all the diversity they want.
Those people are a cancer–a noisy cancer–upon the West.
Maybe we could buy someplace in Siberia from Putin? Or maybe we just designate Iceland and let the Icelanders settle wherever else they like. (Sacrifice one nation to save the rest.)
Something.
Well no surprises… Albanian gangs are very common in many European countries and then there’s Kosovo…
I always found it tragically funny that the one new “independent country” that the Powers That Be managed to create was Kosovo… I mean, Catalonia, Euskadi, Quebec, even the Kurds had better claims. But nooo, let’s create a Muslim narco-state in the middle of Europe.
As our gracious host has taught us, the global Ruling Class is committed to “inviting the world”, so we dirt people will have to roll with it. They are after all our Rulers.
Old World Europeans are being invaded by Arabs and Africans. Muslims are triumphalist and committed to religious and societal domination. Africans are, well, Africans. Europeans in the Old World will only survive in Central and Eastern Europe. Western Europe is done.
Europeans in the diaspora (i.e. outside the Old World) have a big advantage over the relict in the Old World. We only have to deal with Christianized Latins and New World aborigines. Since I have to be invaded, I’d take our invaders over theirs.
Iceland has a population of less than 500,000 people. That’s literally fewer people than many moderate-sized cities in the U.S.
A 9-person gang in a moderately-sized city can be a major source of crime if not caught. In housing projects in the U.S.., a 9 or 10 person gang can basically run the entire operation as their own personal fiefdom.
And if a gang is in anyway organized, it can cause huge problems in the small population beyond merely low-level drug dealing and shakedowns.
Albanians have a reputation of having organized crime. Sicilians and other Italians get all the headlines here, but Albanians are no slouches. It’s just we had more Italians immigrate here than Albanians.
Iceland’s murder rate per 100,000 over the past 25 years
Seems like an overall decrease, in keeping with most other Western countries for the last 30 years.
Diversity (and low birthrates) stops crime.
Like the rest of the West, Iceland must be repopulated because they are bad and almost Nazis! And they want to ban circumcision!
This shit’s been going on since you know when.
The Spanish Inquisition (William Thomas Walsh, Isabella of Spain, Sheed and Ward, 1935, pp. 258-249)
The Viking Age was over by the Norman conquest of England. After that Scandinavian countries were pretty similar to the rest of Europe in terms of their societal structure (monarchy, Catholic, married with other nobles of Europe).
Scandinavia has the benefit of having few external and pertinent threats. Denmark was always at risk against the Germans and Finland shared a frontier with Russia, but for the most part Scandis attacked each other. When they cut back on that (Protestant solidarity?) they had little reason to be warlike or aggressive. You can bring up the occupation of Norway and Iceland by the Nazis and British respectively, but those paled in comparison to the existential threats many other nations of Europe constantly faced with powerful neighbors. Iceland especially doesn’t have to worry about a barbarian horde so they can peacefully develop and throw off the belligerence and martial prowess more at-risk nations had to always maintain for their safety.
Albanian thots (via Blighty) seem to be taking over pop music lately. It’s like they struck the mother lode of kardashium just outside Tirana
Do Icelanders ever kill each other? The biggest case in recent times was the murder of Birna Brjánsdóttir four years ago. The killers were Greenlanders, and were obviously not of Nordic stock.
Maybe the Vikings were only brutal towards outgroups. But acted kindly towards their… kind. I’m not a linguist but it seems like etymology of that word is telling. Kind, kindness, kin. Racism is built into the English language, it’s baked into your very psyche. You bigot!
I quite agree. Let the open borders people have their own country. Let anyone go there. And then let the others do what they will. Israel can have religious preference. Singapore and select immigrants based on needed skill sets. Lithuania can refuse to allow any immigrants.
As of 2020, 15.7% of the Icelandic population is foreign born:

‘…Iceland’s small but fairly agreeable population was also excellent for conducting genetic studies, since they were fairly homogeneous…’
There’s an understatement. When I passed through there, they all looked vaguely like they were related.
Given a population of a quarter of million and (I think) no significant inflow or outflow for a thousand years, they probably are.
Albanians are whiter than Italians (especially southern ones), Greeks, Spaniards, or Portuguese. Genetically, I mean.
Still, no reason to invite them to any country, even if many are perfectly fine fruit sellers, laborers, or ice cream shop owners…
Just today The Iceland Monitor reported the opening of a new consulting office for immigrants. Services are available in many languages, Arabic included. As the old saying from The Little Rascals goes, ‘I don’t know where I’m going, but I’m on my way.” The Monitor, in English:

George Lincoln Rockwell’s ex-wife was from Iceland and died there last year at the age of 90. Presumably his four children, who went to Iceland with their mother after her divorce from Rockwell, are still there:

I am not anti-HBD, but the fact that a race of people famous for fighting (even amongst each other, as in the sagas) are now a mere few hundred years later one of the most peaceful seems prima facie like an anti-HBD argument
I remember that ditty from Cheers. That was back in the good old days, before its chief export was criminals.
Chrome and beautiful women. Of course, we cannot pronounce their names. This one is Dajana Kllogjri.

Their names Thomas Møller Olsen and Nikolaj Olsen are Nordic. I don’t think you know what Nordic people are.
Imagine living in a society so functional that your most troublesome minorities are Albanians….

It seems as if all the references are to citizenship, not ethnicity. So the “Icelandic wife” (the victim’s wife) and the 9th criminal may both be ethnically non-Icelandic, but have been naturalized.
Iceland doesn’t appear to be in the worst situation, as immigrants go. The list of foreign-born residents is mostly of people from solidly European countries. The three largest groups are Poles (19,210), Danes (3,891) and Lithuanians (2,906). Americans are the fourth largest group of foreigners (2,386).
The list of major religions doesn’t even mention Islam. Of countries that have sent more than 300 immigrants, all are either European or Asian. Of Iceland’s 61,400 immigrants, 47,000 (~77%) are from Europe, the USA, or Canada and 5,400 (9%) are from Asia. Another 9,200 are from countries that have sent less than 300 immigrants. Perhaps a lot of those are black or Muslim, perhaps not.
“Eight, including one Icelander, are in custody in connection with a police investigation into the murder in Rauðagerði last weekend. The eighth was sentenced to custody today, but he is one of two people who were arrested in police operations yesterday. The custody of Lithuania, who was arrested shortly after the murder, expires today. Police will request continued custody of him. The men are in their forties and fifties and are from Spain, Albania and Lithuania, among others. Some have just arrived in the country but others have lived here for a long time. “

Apparently some of the investigations are in Selfoss, a town in the south some forty miles from the capital.
I remember when the gangsters in London were all either Brits, Maltese or Jamaican.

Antarctica might be a good place for them. Not all that different from Iceland, and there are no indigenous people to feel guilty about dispossessing.

Albanian immigrants are supposed to be a lot of trouble in Western Europe. They have a reputation for pimping, fencing, narcotics, gangsterism, etc.
Does anyone know how much Albanians adhere to Islam? In the past, they were quite secular (mostly due to the Soviet influence), but I know there’s been a worldwide revival in Islamic fervency in recent years.
Using Google translate: Beqiri was from Albania but had lived in Iceland for years. He worked for the company Top Guard in doorkeeping and security.

Icelandics are Scandinavian paternally and Scotland/Ireland maternally. But their peacefulness is environmental. Is it too hard to figure out?
Mixed race?
Maybe they were just confused by the fact that Greenland is all ice, and Iceland is all green?
Looks like a pugnacious runt to me. One that has been haphazardly assembled out of poorly fitting components.
Lol, good point. Albanians definitely punch above their weight. Great comedians/actors, astronauts, NHLers,…
Nordic people don’t look like that. Greenland is 90% Inuit, including mixed race. My guess is they’re mixed.
British pop sing Dua Lipa is Albanian by parentage.
She recently announced she is pregnant. “Dua” means “love” in Albanian.
See what you can learn here? She’s also the # 1 pop singer in the world at the moment.
Aside from former dictator Enver Hoxha and King Zog, she is the only Albanian I have heard of. They are notoriously clannish and infamous for the vendettas. Of course if you lived in their neighborhood you’d be pretty crazy yourself.
London is probably much safer. Though in the early 90s some of the more risky investment advisors were recommending Albania for it’s (now) cheap beach front real estate. Seems like Communism wasn’t good for the condo market. Word has it there are still plenty of concrete pillboxes available, never used.
Ethnic Brits always seem to have been a minority among the country’s gangsters. Nowadays, it’s a haven for criminals from every corner of the planet. But even before nonwhite immigration started in earnest, most of the big time gangsters seem to have been of Italian, Maltese, Jewish or Irish origin.
Speaking of diversity, the Dr Watson on the upcoming NETFLIX Sherlock Holmes show THE IRREGULARS is Black:
And the rest of the cast is thoroughly BIPOC…..
John and Jim Belushi are my idea of who, what they look like Albanians.
Kind of big….
Rather swarthy in a Sicilian type of way.
A gateway people – not really White Europeans, but not total Arab, Pakistani Muslims.
More like swarthy Turks that go back and forth between Islam, POC and Europeans, Whites.
At least John and Jim Belushi were funny on TV – not so their movies.
I just read Peter Kemp’s No Colours or Crest. He was an S.O.E. Officer who spent much of World War 2 attempting to organize resistance in Albania. Two things struck me about his story:
1. S.O.E. seems to have been a colossal waste of time and talent in general.
2. Albania was an awful place 80 years ago. Full to the brim with horrible people.
Albanians are getting a lock on the restaurant trade in Sea Isle City, N.J. of all places. An acquaintance had a pizza shop there and the Albanians ran him out of business. Told him to his face that they would do it too.
Iceland literally had like one murder a year until a few years ago

Bebe Rexha has a pretty pop voice and a lovely face, and she has the brains to write songs. (Born in Brooklyn to Albanian parents.) I lived in the Tri-State area myself during 2010 to 2013 and the general opinion was that Albanian women were exceptional.
Iceland has had diversity experience before. A minority service member killed his white ex-girlfriend right before we pulled out of there.
Albanians have a reputation of being in organized crime, as much as many Italians are.
Albanians, Chechnyans, Somalis, Michiganers, etc.
Two that come to mind are Bebe Rexha and Dua Lipa.
The Balkans come to Iceland, bringing their feuds with them?
They are actually about 25% Scottish/Irish paternally (50% maternally). Quite a few founding males were from the British Isles.
I think that’s because it was common among Norse and Celtic chieftains to exchange young males from noble families as hostages to secure peace and forge alliances. The Celts in Iceland were not all slaves. Gaelic given names were fairly common amongst the literate class, probably because Irish were more literate than the Norse when Iceland was settled, and there were already Irish monks living there when the vikings found the place.
‘Wall Street Moves to Florida‘ in the WSJ. Billionaires decamping from Manhattan, trying to sell their mega-buck apartments. Fun reading for those so inclined. About 40 names in the article and we got nearly 25 in before, alas, a goy showed up and ruined the fun.

No. No.
Cruelty to penguins. Do what you want to humans, but penguins deserve better.
Vikings were a small group of seafaring explorers, some marauding pirates, who existed for ~150 years in Middle Ages c. 9th-10th centuries AD. Noble Savage-romanticized raiding, raping, pillaging Odin-worshiping pagan Vikings existed even less time. ‘Tis an aberration historians still can’t explain: why some restless men in south Scandinavia (in 9th century, Finno-Ugric tribes were still the main populations across virtually all Sweden except southern tip) suddenly started setting sail raiding all around; then just as abruptly Viking ‘diaspora’ quietly settled down in their new homelands. The word only a learned borrowing in 19th century English from Old Norse ‘víkingr’ as ‘Vikings’ experienced romanticist historical revival.
Vikings were traveling seafarers, not sedentary in modern Scandinavian countries: descendants of Vikings can be found all across Europe whither they traveled/settled (sometimes in violent rapey fashion mixing with prior locals). By 11th century Vikings became Latin Christianized Normans who conquered and set up ‘civilized’ Christian kingdoms in England and Sicily; some Vikings settled Kiev—Kievan Rus—some became Greek Orthodox Christian Byzantine Romans, formed Varangian Guard at Hellenic Constantinople; some settled as Latin Roman Catholic Christians in Italy/Sicily in aforementioned Norman kingdoms. (Were the Normans still Vikings?)
Under influence of mother Thjóðhildr, Leif Eriksson was Christian (to chagrin of father Erik the Red); the Norsemen who ‘discovered’ Vinland (now Newfoundland) had Latin-speaking Roman Catholic clergy on board their ships for Catholic Mass and rites. (Were these seafaring Norsemen still Vikings?)
This silly widespread myth that Vikings were typical of what all or most people in modern Scandinavian countries were generally like for all or most of their history until now is as fictitious as horns on Viking helmets.
(Also, Iceland is not technically Scandinavia—’tis an island settled by a variety of peoples in seas far off from the Scandinavian Peninsula. Like Finland, Iceland is more properly termed a Nordic country together with Sweden, Norway, Denmark.)
A little off topic, but what’s the deal with white Hispanics. Where do they stand demographically and politically.
Yes, if only. They want what they want, so very badly, but it’s us they want it for. They’ll be safe in their various hideaways and besides, who can conceive of a billion anyway? (Matt Y, that’s who.)
These “Europe-Bound Migrants” were found in the trash in “Melilla Spain” (actually one of their foolish enclaves in Morocco) yesterday and actually the ‘migrants’ were attempting to spirit themselves across the border because apparently once you’re in Melilla you’re in the EU and all’s fair.
Anyway, how inhumane can you be not to realize that these poor desperate people need some of our stuff? We have more than enough to share, and they’re superior to us anyway–ask Biden, or Mr. Plywood right here in this thread.
Billions, you were saying? Billions? Someone else can worry about those. That’ll be some other place, at some future date, perhaps. But most likely it’s just white-supremacist propaganda. The important thing is that we help those in need, and feel good about ourselves.
Bryndís Björgvinsdóttir is my muse.
They’ve doubled their immigrant cohort in less than a decade. Good thing they’re learning from others’ mistakes.
Also, too many Filipinos. At least the Thai can make delicious restaurant meals.
Biden will soon take care of this. “Albanian deficit” is a serious problem!
Say what you will about Albanians, but in the Bronx the local blegs and boricuas are scared shitless of them. They will do 10 years rather than rat, without a thought. The janitors in NYC are largely Albanian, so they have hundreds of places across the city in which to incinerate your corpse. I never felt safer than when my office faced a wall with a big double-headed eagle stenciled in it.
More like “diversity stops crime…from being reported accurately.”
Does the U.K.’s Yorkshire city of Rotherham ring a bell?
Yeah, from the guy who thinks the ABBA singers Agnetha and Anni–Frid were trannies … I’m not taking any more advice from you on women, Mr. Plywood.
Mr. Plywood here says that white women are beasts. I told him that if these 2 below are beasts, than I am ready to reconsider beastiality.
This largely depends on the previous makeup of the area and who is diversifying an area.
Hispanics moving into majority black areas of southern California has made them safer.
This is a case of diversity lowering crime rates.
However, the Hispanic population exploded and southern California is hemorrhaging blacks.
It is becoming less diverse now and yet, crime rates, especially violent crime rates, have dropped greatly since the 80s.
And Ms. Alden here says white men are beasts. Shouldn’t we get these two together? They’d have ever so much to talk about.
Armandosson or Armandosdóttir?
According to a Near Eastern adage, it takes two Albanians to swindle a Turk, and sixteen Albanians to swindle an Armenian.
Surely you’ve heard of Bluto?
But Albanians are good now that they’re not Communist. Didn’t you know that?
But it’s better than Communism. Didn’t you know that?
If crime there gets any worse they’ll all be moving to the Faroe Islands
Albanians are white. And yet you say they are very bad killer type people. How is this possible? Don’t you believe your own principles?
No way dude, Icelandix are about 62-64% Irish maternally. They’re only 36% Scandinavian maternally.

Oddly, right before I came here I was looking at old YouTube videos of the Icelandic singer Bjork and at one point wondered to myself if all the women there looked kind of like that. She was kind of cute in her early days but more in a elfin way than having that sex symbol look.
Three pleasant young Albanian couples mysteriously showed up together at my pretty whitebread polling place last November. The men were short, dark-haired, unattractive — but the gals were tall, lithe and striking. We do have plenty of Guatemalans around our village but Albanians would be a new wrinkle.
Nature doesn’t lie. Scandinavian women suck, that’s why Icelandix are only 36% Scandinavian by matrilineal descent. When Scando men are given a choice they go for other types of women. You know, women who don’t look like this:
Wow, their pussies are right there on camera.
Oh, yeah, around 01:30 in, whewww! Yeah, I mean, if that’s what they are… [/Plywood]
BTW, how about that pretty ’70s haircut girl pulling out that Polaroid or whatever the heck it was? Cool video.
It’s you that don’t know what Nordic people are. Those Greenlanders – Inuit, as they call themselves – would probably spit in your face for suggesting they were a Nordic people. A Jamaican guy doesn’t become English just because his name is Winston or George.
And as some dude says upthread, they’re evidently mixed-breed, which makes them doubly race conscious, sort of like mulattos in the US and Britain.
The only people I can think of who’ll never be played by black actors are Adolf Hitler and Albert Einstein.
Bebe did a nice collaboration with bro-country duo Florida Georgia Line:
Dua Lipa is interesting because for an international pop star worth 8 figures she seems like a halfway decent person. She also doesn’t have the annoying habit of oversinging that was popularized by Xtina in the ’00s.
In this clip, just focus on Dua in the blue dress:
Dua looks far better in this interview than any of her music videos, which is pretty shocking considering how much time and money they pour into those things:
What was the crime rate before 1995, when they started letting refugees into the country?
And Mother Teresa.
That is because you have bad taste.
Iceland’s homicide rate is less than 1 per 100,000. The USA’s homicide rate is over 5 per 100,000, which is higher than not only Iceland but also most countries in Europe, save perhaps for a few really shitty ones (say hi to Albania).
The USA is also more diverse than every country in Europe, by far.
Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan are extremely homogeneous and have extremely low homicide rates. Central America is pretty homogeneous and has an extremely high homicide rate. Ditto for much of Africa.
Diversity is really just a nonsense word. What we are talking about is different groups of people with different propensities to commit crime. It’s like saying I’m making spaghetti with “diverse ingredients.” By diverse ingredients do I mean basil, or Drano? It kind of matters.
Mother Teresa was also Albanian. In his book The Missionary Position Hitchens remarked that since the death of John Belushi she was the world’s most well known Albanian.
That band really opened my eyes to music. I remember seeing those two dorks on tv with those two cuties and thinking, rock music must really mess with women’s heads. For years afterwards I wanted to be in a rock band.

From 2001-2017, Iceland had 36 murders total, or an average of 2.11 per year. So it wouldn’t be too hard to look into how many involved immigrants and minorities.
A really gruesome from 2017 involved the murder of a 20-year-old Icelandic girl by a Greenlandic sailor, who appears to be at least part Inuit.
Another 2017 murder was committed by a Yemeni asylum seeker who murdered a Latvian woman after stalking her.
Yet another 2017 murder involved several members of the Reykjavik underworld, some of whom were natives but two of whom were Polish.
Three of the four murders committed in Iceland in 2017 were perpetrated by foreigners, though one of them with help from natives. The fourth murderer was apparently a native Icelander who murdered an Albanian.
Two Albanians in Reykjavík are, unsurprisingly, panhandling for money, and agree to each work on different streetcorners a mile apart to best maximize their chances. After a long day of moaning and whining for passersby to toss coins into their plastic buckets, they meet (at a bar, of course) to compare their hauls.
“I did TERRIBLE!” cries Fatmir, holding a palm full of small change. “Less than five krona! Truly these Icelanders must hate all Albanians!”
“Oh they hate us all right”, chuckles Besnik, shaking a bucket full of coins and paper money, “but I make five HUNDRED krona today!! Clearly, Fatmir, you are doing it all wrong.”
“WHAT!! Five HUNDRED-? How is possible?!” a stupefied Fatmir asks, to which Besnik responds, “Look, I teach you how. Where is your sign?” To which Fatmir holds up a piece of oaktag with
PLEASE HELP
MY FIVE CHILDREN ARE HUNGRY
AND I HAVE NO JOB
crudely but legibly written on it.
Besnik snatches it away and rips it up over his piglike compatriot’s objections. “Besnik! Why you rip up sign?!”
“Is STUPID sign!” Besnik rolls up his hat and, Leo Gorcey style, repeatedly smacks Fatmir over the head with it. “From now on you carry GOOD sign!” And he holds up a placard with
ONLY NEED 10 MORE KRONA FOR PLANE TICKET BACK TO ALBANIA!!
written in giant letters.
The US murder rate of 5 per 100,000 represents a huge decline from the 20th century peak of roughly 10 per 100,000, back when the country was 80% white. The US murder rate declined sharply in the 1990s despite the massive influx of Mexicans and central Americans, and a relative increase in the black population.
90% white America still had a homicide rate of ~8-9 per 100,000 in the teens and thirties.
White Americans pretending like they were ever European by genetics or temperament is as rich as toffee.
I disagree, people greatly overestimate and bloviate about it, without a shred of hard evidence, in HBD circles. Kent Nationalist is right for once.
Björk Guðmundsdóttir may be part Sámi. They are a distinct Uralic people.
I think we know who the first non-white person to settle in “white-bread” Iceland was.
Hans Jonathan was the son of the Danish man Hans Gram and the black woman Emilia Regina. In 1784, Hans was born as a slave on a sugar plantation on the island of Saint Croix, which was then part of the Danish West Indies. He escaped the island and moved to Iceland. In the 1820s, Hans was married to the Icelandic woman Katrín Antoníusdóttir and they had two children who lived into adulthood. There are approximately 800-900 of their descendants alive today.
A 2018 genetic study by Anuradha Jagadeesan, et al. entitled “Reconstructing an African Haploid Genome from the 18th Century” (published in Nature Genetics vol. 50, no. 2 on pages 199-205) tested the autosomal DNA of 182 of Hans’ living descendants in order to reconstruct Hans’ mother’s genome as fully as possible. They succeeded in identifying about 38% of it. Hans’ mother had genetic affinities to the peoples of Nigeria, Benin, and Cameroon.
One of Hans’ descendants, an Icelandic woman, tested her DNA with 23andMe, which reported that she carries 1.2% “West African” DNA.
Oh, so you’re a parody account. Thanks for finally telling me.
As for the decline in murder rates, we have seen large declines before (the last time without much increase in diversity) as your own graph clearly shows. The changing age profile of the population, improvements in medical treatment of shooting victims (so that they don’t become murder victims), better police tactics, a better understanding of criminal behavior, stricter or laxer penalties imposed by judges, legalized abortion, changing patterns of drug use, and even the elimination of lead additives in paint and gasoline – all of these could have had a major impact on overall murder rates.
Hell, maybe it’s just that so many people got air conditioning and decided to stay home rather than go out and kill people. It’s easy to forget that 30 years ago there were still a lot of people out there with shitty or no air conditioning in their homes. Maybe murder rates declined because of the increasing use of CGI in movies? Netscape came out right at the same time as murder rates stopped dropping. Perhaps it was all the online porn that did it?
To pick out one trend – the increasing diversity of the US populations – that simply happened to be occurring at the same time as the decline in murder rates and suggest that must have been the cause of that decline is absurd.
I wonder how brutal the old Vikings really were. Their modern day descendants in Scandinavia, Minnesota and I believe Iceland, sure don’t seem like the types who go off on blood-drunk rampages.
Yes, absolutely correct.
Today in fact I was pondering my list and realized Belushi was Albanian.
Of course as noted elsewhere, Mother Theresa.
I’m sure we’re leaving others out. My apologies.
Didn’t an Albanian invent the light bulb?
Yes, that was WW2 and the related deaths of +500,000 young American males.
Well, white nationalists have said that America would become increasingly violent as it got less white. It hasn’t. There’s been a sustained decline in homicide rates since the diversity ramped up in the ’90s. Diversity has been the single most profound change to American society since the ’90s, so it’s a good candidate.
It was also predicted that the huge number of millennials coming of age in the 2000s would result in a crime increase, but there wasn’t one. That diversity could accompany a crime decrease, despite a demographic situation in the 2000s that should have been conductive to crime, should be even more discouraging to white nationalist.
Diversity seems to be the best candidate for the decrease in violence in our society since the ’90s, along with gun control. I have no doubt that this will be endorsed by every echelon of higher education in the world, as the crime rate in America continues to decrease, so attempting to disagree with me is absolutely futile, and without foresight. The establishment will hammer it home that diversity decreased crime.
Since the white trashtionalist crime argument is an utterly hopeless cause, it’s advisable to stop beating a dead horse with this fantasy of accomplishing anything by trying to revive it. It was dead on arrival. The cops didn’t care, judges didn’t care, nobody cared.
Yes, I’ve thought something similar for a long time.
There’s clearly a divide. Amongst every race, ethnicity, culture, etc, there are those who care about preserving the group, probably historically a healthy majority, and a likely minirity of those who simply don’t care, lack the discipline, are irresponsible, etc., and are immune to being shamed. With the latter, it’s always the same mantra, ”Where all the same’ they say and it’s ‘love’.
The world’s a big place though. Long ago the people’s of the world should of designated a place with ample resources and territory for folks like these (ie those who don’t care about these things) and amply document the facts about plentiful resources.
Documenting this would not be for their sakes, as these people strike me as often being delusional, and they will probably be screaming that ‘you’re trying to kill us all,’ from start to finish. [No, it’s simply having them live what they were attempting to force upon everyone else by default, ie ‘walk the talk’, without parasiting on others.] Documenting it would be for the responsible folks sakes, in case hundreds of years from now they might get worn down and start to half believe these people’s delusions about ‘killing us all’.
They could call this specially designated place ‘New Pangea’.
If everyone’s the same (ie ‘equal’) as they say, then there should be no problem. They’d have to raise their own kids there and not dump them on the grandparents.
However, the results of wanton mixing are known. These places are in Brazil and are called ‘favelas’.
As things have stood it’s not been fair to the responsible people (as stated, probably the majority) who do care about preserving the various races and ethnicities.
Didn’t an Albanian invent the light bulb?
C’mon, man, it was a black Albanian! Er, wait, a Black Albanian! Yeah!
But according to the wonderfully entertaining travel writer & poet, Linh Dinh, who writes here at the Unz Review, Albania has really changed. There are fewer vestiges of its former 3rd World ways, and it appears to be on the verge of offering an almost European lifestyle.
Linh talks about this in the latest installment of his Postcards series.
Personally, I’m hoping he settles down there. He’s not a young man (i.e. approximately my age), and we’re too old to be wandering the globe…
Because…?
I believe this is the part where you’re supposed to explain why it’s the best explanation for the decline. Murder rates in many black-majority cities are setting records.
Actually, gun ownership is at an all-time high. Where I live it seems like virtually everyone owns a gun,, including the leftists. So not exactly sure what gun control has to do with it.
I read this webcomic set in post-apocalyptic Scandinavia. The introduction describes a virus that kills most of humanity. Iceland is spared, because their Coast Guard takes a zero-tolerance view of any ship approaching. Doesn’t matter if it’s full of happy, smiling, white refugees, it gets blown out of the water.
The Beqiri clan appear to be involved in a feud. A man called Flamur Beqiri was killed in London some time ago.

The Spanish apparently realized early that leaving the other side of the Strait of Gibraltar as an invasion staging post for Moors was a bad idea.
Migrants apparently try to storm the fenced-in enclaves every couple of years for the reason you mention, just seeking a better life maaan.
Literally cries out as he strikes you.
Thanks.
“Because of” and “in spite of” are distinctions lost on the trolls of the world.
Modern interventions could well have driven native Icelandic murder rates to a statistical zero, but “diversity” has kept the rates afloat.
– The Norsepersons who followed Ingolfur Anarson to Iceland (still reflected in the hymn) were dissenters who didn´t want to be subsumed when Harald Fairhair unified the realm i.e. they are a kind of Viking Amish – and still the only nation on earth to be democratically Christianized 😀
They gathered on the Thingvellir (“field of assembly”, the world´s oldest still operative parliament) and let the missionary talk, then voted: Why the hell not, as long as baptism is only in the hot springs (!). As a side effect the pagan traditions were unbroken.
– The Swedes got their danglings cut off by Peter the Great at Poltawa 1709, and have not regrown them since.
Albanian mercenaries (“Arnauts”) were the scourge of the Ottoman empire;
not so different from their neighbours (but don´t tell either! 😛 ).
Uff da!
Whenever I argue with anyone about immigration, one of my ground rules is that the word “restaurant” cannot be used.
Fun fact: Anna Frid is actually Norwegian- sort of; her dad was a German soldier. Mon thought it best to bring up the baby girl in a place that had not been occupied by the Nasties.
Perhaps that was Trump’s plan with Greenland.
I was part of a group of foreign visitors given a tour of the Stockholm city hall building, which also happens to be the venue where the King of Sweden hands out the Nobel Prizes.
Standing with his back to a statue of a female figure that would have made John Ashcroft blush, the personification of Stockholm much like the role of the Forward statue in Wisconsin, our guide explained, with the driest of a sense of Scandinavian humor, that the founding of Stockholm was marked by the “passage of a city ordinance outlawing rape.”
Darn! We Vikings can no longer commit acts of rape within City Limits.
I’m happy to share wealth with the aspiring europeans as long as they are required to stay out of Europe.
So what?
I will gladly trade Iceland any day. Their Albanians for any of our top 5 most troublesome minorities.
You don’t think America gets the better of that deal?
Yeah, that’s what I was saying.
And I don’t think those two murderers were 100% Danish. I think they were mixed, probably Danish father (hence names) and Inuit mother.
All good information and perspective, thanks.
In France there remains an association between Normans and blond hair (I.e. “she looks like a Norman”) , so there remains some genetic legacy there.
I realize that people on this blog tend to be vilified for being curious and interested in forbidden topics, so some are defensive and quick to lash out. But I don’t know why your response merited the snark. If I wanted to write a book to fully explain what I do know and argue it wouldn’t be on a comments page.
I should have said pro HBD particularly to the argument that populations can select very rapidly, with a few generations making a big difference. But yes I can also see skepticism with such evidence too.
The article is written by Jelena Ciric – a Serbian immigrant to Iceland.
Damn, I should’ve tried that euphemism back when I’d go to bars to find a girl. When she would ask why I chose that bar, known to be a bit of a meat market, I’d should’ve said, “I’m just looking for a better life”.
I believe the Black Death did not make its way to Iceland until 1410, over 60 years after it devastated continental Europe. Given the time lapse it may not even have been the same strain but it does emphasise the relative isolation of Iceland.
“One wonders if all the Viking viciousness was bred and socialized out of Scandinavia”
Stop wondering: the answer is yes. Having spent a few years in Denmark, ancestral home to some of the Viking kingdoms, and now home to the lovely young woman I sired on its soil, I can testify to the fact that 96% of Danish men are quasi-gay. Whilst in residence I was the toughest guy there. And I’m not that tough. But white American men get steamrolled everyday by blacks and dudes in wigs so who are we to brag about our testicles?
The word you are looking for is women. Women can’t get enough of violence, brutality, and more violence in men. Its why they reliably seek out the most brutal and violent. That this dude had an Icelandic Wife is no surprise.
Compare say, Kevin Federline, with what, 12 kids now, to Bill Gates. With I think two. Money does not count as much as charisma and dominance and general thuggishness. This is why EVERY nation that has something is getting over-run with violent, dominant men.
Think all those German men thought, wow look at all the violent jihadis fleeing the fall of the ISIS state in Syria. Lets have them here! Nope it was the women from Mutti Merkel on down. China has a colony of over 50,000 Africans in Southern China, who by rioting and violence FORCED the Chinese government to apologize and compensate them for being refused entry into shops and restaurants in Southern China during the height of Covid. Japan and South Korea have the same. In all cases its their women, who finding foreign men more violent and sexy, pulled strings to let them in.
That comment is as dumb as thinking that Bill Gates forcing everyone but the elite to eat cockroaches and weeds is not going to provoke violent civil war.
Crime is out of control, and is the prime reason places like San Francisco and New York are losing people to … Miami. Which might have high crime but have not abolished the cops and allows concealed carry. And crime is mostly just black people. No one wants to live among, or near them. And revealed preference shows that White liberals live in the most lily White places with as few blacks as possible. Vermont, the Hamptons, New Hampshire, are not known for the hoods. Or keeping it real.
The real play is after all the Whites have emptied out in NYC and it turns into Detroit plus. The Chinese are buying up real estate cheap there. And with the Chinese take-over of America, will they tolerate blacks or will they simply put them in Uighur style concentration camps and have a kindler, gentler extermination? Judging by their ruthless history, I’d say the latter.
Your fundamental failure is to think in one dimension. To avoid thinking of dynamic reactions, time, the other players (Mexico, China, Whites, the military) and the likely reactions, capacities, and organizational structures and resources of each group player.
Uralic people? Who teaches you nonsense like that?
I would guess that isolation and harsh conditions could drive barbarians to efficiently domesticate themselves with eg. excessive penal codes.

A king of Norway took 6000 Varangians to Constantinople around a thousand years ago and left them there. Maybe that was the end of the Vikings. They were sold on to eastern lands and neutered.
There is a recent DNA study of the so-called Vikings that indicates quite a cosmopolitan ethnic mix in them.
John Alite, former associate of the Gambino crime family and childhood friend of John Gotti Jr, is Albanian. Despite his friendship with Gotti, he was reputedly involved in a conspiracy to kill him.
He seems to have lived a colorful life. He is of course now an author and motivational speaker, which is apparently a popular route for retired gangsters.
Our police is quiet about the investigation. The Icelandic guy in custody is probably close to the top of the food chain in our illegal drug trade. He has been throwing lot of money around in the past without any signs of income. The word in the street is he is also a snitch for the police. The word got out (police report leaked on the web) and put him in bad position, and apparently someone had to die in retaliation. That’s the speculation at least.
What is unusual about this murder is it’s the first in decades where someone is killed with a handgun. And with silencer to boot. Many of my fellow countrymen take this as a sign of loss of innocence, so to speak. We have plenty of rifles and shotguns, but gun ownership is all about hunting and sport. Very few handguns.
The Albanians are mostly doorkeepers/working in nightclubs. How the got here I don’t know. But Iceland is part member of the E.U – so our borders are wide open to E.U. citizens. Albania isn’t (yet) member of the E.U so I am not sure how this works.
Overall we have been very lucky with our immigrants, so far.
I say to anyone who will listen – our tiny population is our biggest asset. Few will listen and more is supposedly always better
Damn, those girls had some fine legs.
And when they say “yoots” they are Italian kids.
“Diversity is strength” is UNFALSIFIABLE #2 –due to PC speech taboos
https://sincerity.net/unfalsifiable-diversity/
The creed of politically correct egalitarianism is recursively self perpetuating1 and can never be falsified2. Falsifiability–required by science, abhorred by PC 3
Not permitted to point out failures of diversity
“Diversity is strength” is unfalsifiable because of PC speech restrictions.
It is totally taboo and verboten to even think:
“it could be detrimental to import more Somalis into Finland, Sweden, Holland, Minneapolis. Somalis might have lower IQ, higher criminality and a dangerous Islamic Ideology bent on submission of non-Muslims”
Note: it is not allowed to discuss any statement that alleges “minorities’” failures. For our discussion, at this point it is irrelevant if the statements about diversity failures are true or false.
Continues at sincerity dot net’s link above
You would think Iceland would look at Britain, France, Sweden and Germany and figure ou that diversity is not good and not encourage it

“Whatever the case, no paradise lasts long when the rest of the world is invited.”
There was never this paradise to begin with. Our human history is littered with “invading” and “inviting”.
Besides, the last time I checked, Albanians are white. You know, on your side, aka good whites?
Furthermore, were your ancestors “invited”, or did they simply “barge in”? Why should they have been allowed to the U.S. in the first place, and you get all the gimmedats and free stuff as a result of their hard work.
You have to go back.
Iceland is incredibly pozzed. Like all wealthy, liberal areas, they don’t (until now) suffer the consequences of their beliefs, because hardly anyone wants to immigrate to Iceland. But in the coming era, even the statistical margin of error will be enough to overcome their complete inability to deal with reality.
Iceland is a place that has institutionalized the very worst of progressivism — the traditional family is all but destroyed — and manages to continue blithely on thinking it’s doing great, because it is full of sweet, wonderful Icelandic people who could live under virtually any social or political institution and make it work, because they’re just nice people.
They’re the human version of Dodos, and Third World immigrants are the cats.
Poltava in 1708 in the Great Northern War.
A story from Finland tells about a log floating in blood. Another tells how troopers lie bleeding in the mud while aristocratic officers clinked wine glasses in a tent with their Russian counterparts.
A lesson for today?
Iceland was founded in 874 from Norway, then a land of small kings ruling areas the size of a county. One of them, King Harald Fairhair (Harald Harfagr), successfully unified the country into a centralised monarchy like Denmark and Sweden. His defeated opponents continued the war from the northern and western isles of Scotland and Ireland, and only left for Iceland, discovered by accident in 860, after Harald inflicted a naval defeat on them in 872. It is true that Norwegian Vikings were sometimes pirates, but it is untrue that the first Icelandic women were slaves acquired by raiding.
You may be one of the Queer Communist Boys (QCB) with a twisted sense of history, or did I misunderstand.
Anni-Frid was rescued to Sweden to save her from the brutality of Norwegian Communists in the post-war.
Many of the Lebensborn children in Norway suffered maltreatment. Look it up.
A northern Italian woman told me that when southern Italian men come north to work in the factories they can’t get married. No northern woman will marry them. They have to marry Albanian woman.
I would love to see a Chinese actor play MLK. A native American play Mandela.
More than one, definitely (and I brought it up a few times).
But what I meant is the Swedes were the terror of Europe until after the 30 years´War
(as everybody and his mama here has been rather ungracious regarding their manhood).
Actually Iceland has very strict immigration policy and almost all fugitives are sent back. Often against loud outcries from our SJW class. So it’s almost impossible for third worlders to immigrate here. If memory serves me less than 50 people from the middle east came here during the fugitive crisis following the Syrian war when countries like Germany accepted million or more.
However, our borders are open to EU citizens. Our SJW class is loud in our media, but it knows it has very limited support to open the borders among the public. And since our business class has easy access to cheap labor from Poland there is zero pressure to ease immigration policy to other parts of the world.
However, our borders are open to EU citizens.
And how will that work out when the most common name among newborn “EU citizens” is Mohammed?
You obviously don’t know anything about genetics……

Your links are depressing. In their coded language of the day, they indicate that little good is coming of the demographic change.
After reporting that their successful efforts to build a nice place has encouraged demographic changing levels of immigration:
So, a homogeneous, cooperative place built nice things; now modern communication and travel is on the way to subsuming the builders. Gee, where have we seen that before? Time to defend the borders and quit worshiping the GDP.
Sad.
Just like you’re not really White European, but not total Asian, Siberian Mongol.

If that ever even happens it’s because of class not “race”. Same reason coastal elite women wouldn’t marry redneck men from Alabama.
Northern and Southern Italians are obviously the same race:

The German name Schwedenschatz was supposed to be a legacy of mass rape by Swedish soldiers in the Thirty Years’ War causing pregnancies, although apparently the name has different origins. But forcing people to drink dirty water or sewage water as a form of torture was called the “Swedish drink” and this does seem to be based on the behaviour of Swedish soldiers.
I’m very glad to hear that. If only Ireland had such a policy. They’re full steam ahead there.
The old Carmen Sandiego series from the 1990s was a fun goofy PBS show for kids. I cant imagine how Netflix has wokeraped it….

“Your links are depressing. In their coded language of the day, they indicate that little good is coming of the demographic change.”
To the contrary, the links are a celebration. No coded language, just Almond Joy!
“After reporting that their successful efforts to build a nice place has encouraged demographic changing levels of immigration”
That “nice place” remains “nice”. Remember, throughout human history people come from there to built a better there here.
Newcomers arrive
Newcomers are unwelcome
Newcomers assimilate
New newcomers arrive
Old newcomers are unwelcome toward new newcomers
Ad infinitum…
“So, a homogeneous, cooperative place built nice things; now modern communication and travel is on the way to subsuming the builders. Gee, where have we seen that before? Time to defend the borders and quit worshiping the GDP.”
If that be the case, your own ancestors would have never been allowed here in the States. You have to go back.
Perhaps the 60% (and that’s a very low estimate) of them that are Muslims factor into the equation..
In the nuked version of my blog I wrote several years ago about a Kenyan couple who had ‘fled’ Italy for Iceland where they were immediately given refugee status. They professed the intention of having no fewer than twelve children. A geometric progression shows the catastrophic impact this one breeding pair would have on Iceland’s vulnerable demographics (population about 300,000, below-replacement birth rates). By the way the husband expressed absolute confidence in becoming President of Iceland one day! Who’s to say he’s wrong?
Actually the genetic makeup of Icelanders is about 60% Viking, 40% Celtic.
“And how will that work out when the most common name among newborn “EU citizens” is Mohammed?”
The same way English names were “replaced” by German, Italian, and Pole names in the States. It’s who we are.
Hello! I miss your blog. I still have it on my favorites list.
Iceland was a Danish protectorate at the time. Were they doing this because they liked the Germans, or because they resented the Danes?
Cherokees have been enjoying the blessings of diversity for centuries. now they want their name back.
Chief of Cherokee Nation Says ‘It’s Time’ for Jeep to Stop Using Name
They can rename it the “Old Hickory”. Just as he’s coming off the $20.

It’s a good point. I’m sure many (by no means most) of us would be happy to share some of our filthy lucre with them on that basis. But it’s not just our wealth they want–they want our countries.
And the tiny religious minority we welcomed into our countries is going to see that they get it. They feel safer that way, which really should put paid to any notion that they’re smart.
‘…In all cases its their women, who finding foreign men more violent and sexy, pulled strings to let them in.’
It would seem Corvinus finds your paradigm disturbing.
I think it’s overwrought — but worth taking into account. At the end of the day, women — quite reasonably — are going to want men who will stand up and fight.
‘Chief of Cherokee Nation Says ‘It’s Time’ for Jeep to Stop Using Name’
Translation: ‘Chief of Cherokee Nation wishes to open negotiations about size of payoff.’
They don’t call them one of the Five Civilized Tribes for nothing. Call your lawyers and start the talks.
‘I would guess that isolation and harsh conditions could drive barbarians to efficiently domesticate themselves with eg. excessive penal codes.’
Maybe they always were peaceful — among themselves.
It’s noticeable that there’s an inverse correlation between domestic pacifism and external aggressiveness. Germans and Japanese both are very peaceful — domestically. Conversely, the generally isolationist United States of our first one hundred and fifty years waged few wars in earnest against external enemies — and settled its domestic disputes with everything up to cannon and machine guns.
I always found the ‘Everett Massacre’ quintessentially American. It was 1909 and the International Workers of the World were coming to town. The only way into Everett then was by steamboat.
So the local Chamber of Commerce set up a machine gun on the pier.
But our army was smaller than that of Portugal.
It’s not unreasonable for an Indian tribe to own the intellectual property rights to its tribe’s name.
‘It’s not unreasonable for an Indian tribe to own the intellectual property rights to its tribe’s name.’
Quite right. But what about — say — Scandinavians and Vikings? The Catholic Church and Padres?
Obviously, there’s a slippery slope here.
The name of federally recognized tribes is a limited list. I’d say give official tribes the rights to sell or lease the copyright on their names to marketers going forward for all new products and give current brand names like Jeep Cherokee 20 years to come to a deal with the tribes.
Per your usual, you can’t process information; no understanding of survivorship bias; no understanding of mean, median, and mode; just repeat a set of bromides.
If Iceland stays nice, it will be in spite of immigration, not because of immigration.
There can be two trends at the same time: improving social conditions, and mass immigration. Iceland should let improving social conditions roll on and enjoy the delta. Allowing themselves to be “occupied permanently by a tidal wave of sub-Saharan Muslim refugees” just to satisfy a Corvinus fever dream is a negative delta. Much such migration has been negative: what has Islam improved, except for a few stories? What has Black African migration improved, except for a few stories? Sure, Norwegians complained about Swedish immigrants, but it worked out okay. That’s not a universal story, and just repeating the few cases that worked out doesn’t change the general lesson.
You grasp the point in an oblique way. My ancestors and I occupy a niche in the ecosystem; we defend it; we keep out invaders. That’s how these things work. You don’t invite invaders; you don’t give them your stuff so they can harm you. Your replies here are a cope; you very much see the damage from mass immigration, but you cling to a hope that everything will work out okay because kum bay ya.
Seems it would run into public domain issues. Can the country of Columbia claim advertising proceeds from Columbian Coffee? Can the Amish and Hutterites copyright their monikers?
I see where “Almost Amish” was copyrighted by an Amish woman, then the copyright sold to company that enforced it on various bake sales and fund raisers selling a style of quilt in Lancaster County PA. LOL.
Actually the genetic makeup of Icelanders is about 60% Viking, 40% Celtic.
I’ve been to Albania and trust me, there might be two or three women in the whole country who look like her. Like claiming Halle Berry to be representative of black women.
“Per your usual, you can’t process information; no understanding of survivorship bias; no understanding of mean, median, and mode; just repeat a set of bromides.”
Project much?
“If Iceland stays nice, it will be in spite of immigration, not because of immigration.”
It will be because the people there, natives and non-natives, work in concert with one another. That’s how it works.
“Allowing themselves to be “occupied permanently by a tidal wave of sub-Saharan Muslim refugees” just to satisfy a Corvinus fever dream is a negative delta.”
No, it is a conscious, rational decision on the part of Icelanders. Please cite for me where in Iceland that this “tidal wave of sub-Saharan Muslim refugees” has been running roughshod over the Flóki’s and Arnkatla’s of the world.
“Much such migration has been negative: what has Islam improved, except for a few stories?”
Didn’t the WASPs make the same argument with your own ancestors?
“Sure, Norwegians complained about Swedish immigrants, but it worked out okay.”
So, magic dirt?
“That’s not a universal story, and just repeating the few cases that worked out doesn’t change the general lesson.”
No, the rule rather than the exception in America has been the cases have worked out, and the general lesson is we are Mutts who ultimately find ways to not only get along, but thrive. It’s who we are.
“You grasp the point in an oblique way. My ancestors and I occupy a niche in the ecosystem; we defend it; we keep out invaders.”
Except your ancestors WERE the same invaders that natives sought to keep out. Yet, today, you are able to sit on your high horse and exhort how newcomers are the ones with “foreign ideas” and “alien customs”.
“You don’t invite invaders; you don’t give them your stuff so they can harm you.”
Again, that’s what the nativists said about your ancestors. So what exactly changed that they became “one of them”? Was it acceptance by nativists, or did your ancestors barge in, demand gimmedats and free stuff, and make a better there here over nativist objections?
‘No, the rule rather than the exception in America has been the cases have worked out, and the general lesson is we are Mutts who ultimately find ways to not only get along, but thrive. It’s who we are.’
This isn’t at all true. The least diverse parts of the country are pretty consistently the most livable. The best of all are those odd patches where few have come in or out for the last hundred years.
