    I'm seeing a pattern across the Western World.

    Sweden Is Safer in the Summertime, But No One Wants to Face the Reason Why

    ROBERT SPENCER | 9:16 AM ON JULY 08, 2024   

    Recent developments in Britain and France are making it clear to everyone what European countries have done to themselves, but the full effects still won’t be seen for another few decades. Still, there are hints of what is happening, and what is to come, that are unmistakable to those who are paying attention. The attentive, however, are still few — so few that this entire ghastly drama will have to be played out to its almost inevitable conclusion. Consider, for example, a piquant and revealing news item from Sweden: crime rates go down in the summertime. Why? Because the “refugees” go on vacation.

    The Swedish-language publication Fria Tider reported Tuesday that “in southern Sweden, it becomes quieter in the summer when the criminals go on holiday to their home countries, according to the police.”

    Yes, you read that right: the people who commit most of the crimes in Sweden go on vacation to their countries of origin, and so their place of refuge becomes calmer and safer for the native population. Mats Karlsson, the head of intelligence for the police in the southern region of Sweden, explained: “Some of them, who originate in other countries, go there over the summer. Then we notice a big difference, a greater calm, in our vulnerable areas. In the second year when they are still in Sweden, they become messier.”

    Now wait a minute. Aren’t many of these migrants supposed to be asylum seekers and refugees? So why are they vacationing in the countries they supposedly fled for their lives?

    Also, who is paying for these vacations, with migrants receiving “65 percent of social welfare expenditures”? Swedish taxpayers, obviously. But why?

    The “foreign-born represent 53 percent of individuals with long prison sentences, 58 percent of the unemployed.” As if that weren’t enough, they receive “77 percent of Sweden’s child poverty is present in households with a foreign background, while 90 percent of suspects in public shootings have immigrant backgrounds.” What benefit does Sweden receive from importing a large criminal element?

    I know this has nothing to do with Sugar Bowl Ticket Index but something is up and it isn't Disney. "Put a woman in it and make her gay."

    Disney's Parks Nearly Ghost-Towns on the Fourth of July

    —Disinformation Expert Ace

    I know, I know, many don't like Disney news.

    But I'm looking for something to post that isn't about Biden dropping out or not dropping out. Just as a bit of ginger between the courses of sushi.

    Walt Disney World Deserted For Fourth Of July Celebrations

    July 8, 2024


    For decades, Walt Disney World has been a premiere location for Americans from all 50 states to celebrate the nation's founding on the Fourth of July. It's known to Disney veterans as one of the busiest days of the year, with shoulder to shoulder traffic crowding the entirety of Main Street USA.

    But "the times they-are-a-changin,'" as the saying goes.

    In years past, the Magic Kingdom and Epcot were hotspots of patriotic celebration, with both parks often hitting maximum occupancy and wait times for even mid-tier attractions hitting three, sometimes even four hours. The parks would be decked out in red, white, and blue, a true picture of American patriotism that would have made company founder Walt Disney swell with pride. The 360 degree fireworks spectacular was an attraction in and of itself, filling the sky with celebratory explosions in excess of 13 minutes.

    But Fourth of July 2024 was a far different experience. The parks were downright empty, seeing less of a surge and more of a sprinkle of humanity meandering down a sparsely decorated Main Street for a fireworks show that was just a little over seven minutes in length.

    Same day park reservations were available for all four parks, something utterly unheard of in recent years, and wait time for attractions all across Walt Disney World were actually lower than a typical summer non-holiday from years past.

    At 3 p.m. on July 4th several big ticket rides throughout Walt Disney World had no wait at all. This includes Kilimanjaro Safaris in Disney's Animal Kingdom and Star Tours -- The Adventures Continue in Disney's Hollywood Studios. Expedition Everest only had a 15-minute wait time and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance (arguably Disney's most popular standby queue attraction) only had a 45-minute wait. Its close neighbor Slinky Dog Dash clocked in at just 50 minutes.

    Disney's stock price is down to $97 and change. It had been at a high of $197 and change in February 2021.

    So... halved in value.

    The Disney experts of WDW_Pro reported that Disney had barely bothered to decorate for our nation's birthday. Usually, they said, the whole park is decorated with red, white, and blue festoons and coquettes. This year, though, they didn't even bother dressing up all of the Main Street section of the park -- just a single courtyard.

    Remember, the founder of Disney was very pro-American. Not so the communists who infiltrated themselves into the company until they dominated it from top to bottom.

    Speaking of ghost towns, there are rumors -- and all rumors about Disney turn out to be true, eventually -- that they're going to change the beloved Haunted Mansion exhibition for "sensitivity" reasons.

    The rumor is that Disney will replace the ghost who welcomes people to the mansion -- the "Ghost Host" -- with some... bats.

    Because, you see -- that ghost has a noose round his neck. And this triggers the maniacs.
