Targeting whams,
by Paul Craig Roberts, Townhall.com, Jun 28, 2000

Democrats in the Senate, aided by 13 turncoat Republicans, have passed legislation that creates new federal crimes that can only be committed by a White Heterosexual Able-bodied Male (WHAM). The legislation, pushed by Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., and Gordon H. Smith, R-Ore., would provide another weapon to be used against WHAMs, a non-preferred and legally isolated minority with no lobby, no voice and no political protection. The legislation would make any violent act committed against a woman, a homosexual or a disabled person a federal "hate crime." It is already a "hate crime" to commit a violent act against a "person of color."

The Kennedy-Smith bill is race-profiling at its worst. The bill targets a specific group on the basis of race, gender and sexual orientation by labeling WHAMs with a proclivity to commit hate crimes. It is obvious from the politically correct rhetoric and the feminist and homosexual lobbies that produced the bill that the legislation does not regard those deemed in need of hate-crime protection to be among the perpetrators of such crimes. No WHAM presumes that hate-crime legislation will protect him from assaults by those deemed to be his victims.

When homosexual Matthew Shepard was beaten and accidently killed, the media proclaimed it a hate-crime. But when two homosexuals sexually molested and intentionally murdered a young boy, it was not considered a hate crime. Similarly, if a husband explodes and beats an unfaithful or spendthrift wife, it is a hate crime. But if a woman maims her husband, it is not.

It is not a hate crime for a black to mug and beat a white, but a white who assualts a black is committing a hate crime. A disabled person who kills an able-bodied one has committed only murder, but if the roles are reversed, the able-bodied person has committed murder and a hate crime.

When crimes are invented that cannot be committed by protected groups, equality before the law is lost. The Kennedy-Smith bill is an atavistic throwback to pre-modern times, when commoners who assaulted nobles were guilty of criminal acts, but nobles who assaulted commoners were not.

The Kennedy-Smith bill is nothing but a political assault on the civil rights of WHAMs. The bill itself is a violation of equal treatment by law. It shows what a pitiful country we have become when the intent of civil-rights legislation is to take away the civil rights of a non-preferred group.

Hate-crime legislation is the logical extension of previous civil-rights acts that made white males second-class citizens, who are required to give up government contracts and their places in university admissions, training programs, employment and promotions to less qualified members of "preferred minorities."

Until 1964, "civil rights" meant equality under law. Today, it means special privileges for designated groups deemed by federal lawmakers, bureaucrats and judges to be more worthy. The privileged status of being "more worthy" now encompasses every group except WHAMs.

Initially, the status of "preferred minority" was intended for native-born American blacks. Its purpose was to speed integration by pushing blacks to the head of the line for college admissions. But soon the preferred status was extended to all "people of color" effective the day they immigrated to the United States from Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa.

The rationale for this unconstitutional race-based privilege is the accusation that Americans of European descent dominate, oppress and discriminate against people of other racial heritage unless "people of color" are protected with special legal privileges that the Constitution forbids.

The next step in legally isolating WHAMs was to extend the preferred minority designation to women of European descent in order to protect them from WHAMs. The step after that was to protect the disabled, and now it is to save homosexuals from WHAMs.

Theoretically, a male heterosexual person of color could commit a hate crime against a homosexual or a female. But practically speaking, such a charge is unlikely. As a person of color, he has protected status, and he shares victim status with gays and females and a common "oppressor" in the WHAM "hegemonic order."

The assault on white males has been underway for three decades. It has many parallels to the assault on Jews by German intellectuals during the half century prior to the rise of Hitler. The difference is that the assault on white males is led primarily by white males--Ted Kennedy and Gordon Smith, for example. The federal judges and bureaucrats, university professors and news media editors who have made it politically correct to denigrate and scapegoat white males are, for the most part, white males. It is as if the Jews wrote the Nuremberg laws that destroyed their civil rights in National Socialist Germany.

White males need not apply. National Post, Nov 19, 2005
A major federal department has temporarily banned the hiring of able-bodied white men. Managers in the Public Works department must hire only visible minorities, women, aboriginals and the disabled, except with written permission from their superiors, David Marshall, the deputy minister, ordered in an e-mail circulated yesterday.

What WHAMs Need To Know About Affirmative Action. VDARE, Dec 5, 2000
If you are a white heterosexual able-bodied male (WHAM), you need to understand that affirmative action is not about leveling a playing field. It is about leveling you...Moreover, affirmative action has given women gender privileges comparable to the racial privileges of darker skins. WHAMs are the only group without privileges or preferred legal standing....
