Siding Against the Victims: Why the West Is Dying

28 June 2024

5.4 MINS

How much longer will the West last?

To speak of the West in decline, decay, and deterioration is a big subject with all sorts of reasons that one can examine. Here, I want to look at just one of them. When criminals, murderers and rapists – be they migrants or home-grown – are treated much more favourably than their victims, then you know we are on a fast road to oblivion.

There have been many cases of this, but several high-profile cases in recent days show how far down the tubes the West has gone. The two cases both involve migrants – both legal and illegal. And it seems that their rights are seen as being far more important than those of their young victims.

But before I continue, two obvious caveats: rape and murder are ALWAYS wrong, regardless of who carries it out. And, of course, not all migrants are involved in these activities. But many have been, and far too often, the powers that be are happy to whitewash the crimes or let the assailants go scot-free.

Just think of the Muslim rape gangs in Birmingham and elsewhere in the UK who targeted hundreds of children and teens, drugging them, beating them, and gang-raping them. But because they were mostly Muslim, and the authorities did not want to appear racist, little or nothing was done about this for quite a long time.

Horrific

Indeed, these rapes had been going on for years. But police and authorities turned a blind eye, chewing out the victims while not wanting to be seen to disparage the gods of political correctness and the multi-culti enthusiasts. In my article on this back then, I quoted from an investigation into these Muslim gangs:

  • Social workers knew of abuse in the 1990s, but police took a decade to launch a probe.
  • Council staff viewed abused and trafficked children as “prostitutes” instead of victims, according to previously unseen files.
  • Authorities failed to keep details of abusers from Asian communities for fear of “racism”
  • Police failed to investigate one recent case five times until an MP intervened.
  • One victim said cops tried to stop her finding out why her abusers had not been prosecuted, because they feared she would talk to us.

Well, these sorts of diabolical things are still happening, and two quite recent cases in America and Germany have rightly incensed so many ordinary citizens. In Houston, Texas, two illegal immigrants have been accused of assaulting and killing a 12-year-old girl.

If this were a one-off, that would be one thing. But so many cases now of illegals committing crimes – including rape and murder – have come to light over the years. No wonder most Americans prefer Trump’s policy of secure borders over Biden’s open borders policy. The story goes like this:

Little Jocelyn Nungaray fought back against her attackers after she was lured under a Houston bridge and assaulted for two hours — leaving scratch and bite marks on one of the illegal migrants who is accused of killing her, prosecutors revealed Tuesday. Johan Jose Martinez-Rangel, 21, still had the marks Jocelyn left on him when he was arrested.

Assistant District Attorney Megan Long said in a Harris County court. Martinez-Rangel’s alleged accomplice, Franklin Jose Peña Ramos, 26, told cops he tried to convince Martinez-Rangel to stop, but he allegedly refused and climbed on top of the girl and strangled her, according to Long. However, Martinez-Rangel allegedly responded that he had to “finish what he started” as he covered her mouth, Long said.

There have been so many cases of this happening, that some political leaders are rightly demanding much stiffer penalties, along with immediate tightening up the very porous southern border. Texas Senator Ted Cruz, for example, has said that anyone found guilty of this should face the death penalty. As one media report states:

Cruz wrote on X. “These men are illegal aliens and Jocelyn Nungaray would still be alive and with her family if not for Joe Biden’s open border policies. The Biden administration is directly responsible. My heart goes out to Jocelyn’s family.” The pair were seen with Nungaray on Sunday night before she was killed near a bridge, police said Thursday. Investigators tracked their movements through surveillance footage.

“In this case the defendant lured a 12-year-old under a bridge, where he and his co-defendant remained with her for over 2 hours, took her pants off, tied her up, and killed her, then threw her body into the bayou,” Harris County Assistant District Attorney Michael Abner wrote…

The slaying of Nungaray came amid a week of kidnappings, murders and rapes blamed on illegal immigrants across the country.

As if all this is not bad enough, check out this short video clip. A hyper-progressive MSNBC host seems far more worried about calling illegal aliens “undocumented individuals” than she is about the horrific rape and murder of this young girl.

Sheer Injustice

Things are just as bad in Germany. Consider this horrible story: in 2020, ten men gang-raped a 15-year-old girl in Hamburg. At least eight of them walked free. But when a woman recently contacted these criminals, SHE was charged with a crime! I kid you not. One report puts it this way:

A young woman has been sent to prison for insulting a migrant who walked free after gang-raping a 15-year-old girl in a Hamburg city park. In 2020, a heavily intoxicated teenager was repeatedly raped by several men in the German city after she lost control of her senses.

The case sent shockwaves around the world last year, when it was revealed eight out of the nine perpetrators would not face prison time. They received suspended sentences. Only one rapist was sent to youth prison for two years and nine months. One was acquitted.

Now, a 20-year-old woman from the city has been sent to prison after making “hateful” remarks towards a migrant who was involved and remains at large. Last week, a young woman was convicted by a district court of insulting and threatening one of the rapists, a justice spokeswoman confirmed to German national newspaper Die Welt.

The verdict against the man is not yet final, it is still pending before the Federal Court of Justice. However, he has not served any jail time. The newspaper reports the young woman jailed for insulting him had found his number online — as it was circulating on Snapchat.

Hey, makes perfect sense to me. Let’s just give rapists a free pass, but if anyone seeks to call them out, let’s throw the book at them. No wonder the recent EU Parliamentary elections saw one nation after another strongly move away from the left and shift to the right – including Germany.

People are increasingly getting sick and tired of all the double standards in the criminal justice system. It seems migrants are given superior treatment, while citizens and victims are looked down upon and ignored. If masses of people enter our countries with so many NOT embracing our values or even learning our language, we have every right to be upset and say, “Enough is enough.”

I repeat (for my usual band of critics who seem to lack basic reading and comprehension skills): all rape and murder are wrong, and most migrants are likely not involved in this. But the truth is, if you have a loved one who was raped and/or murdered, you would be asking some real hard questions – and demanding justice.

Here is the bottom line:

When criminals seem to have more rights than victims, then you know that the West is doomed.

When the rule of law is weakened or abandoned, then you know that the West is doomed.

When the judiciary no longer administers justice, but injustice, then you know that the West is doomed.

When criminals can avoid punishment because of their ethnicity or country of origin, then you know that the West is doomed.

When Western nations are flooded with migrants, many of whom do not share the host nation’s values, including respect for women and children, then you know that the West is doomed.

When we target whistle-blowers while protecting the perpetrators of horrific crimes, then you know that the West is doomed.

When we value failed multiculturalism policies over the protection and safety of our own citizens, then you know that the West is doomed.

When those who rightly call out rapists are now being punished, then you know that the West is doomed.

    Great article Kurt , this is the outworking of racial marxism (=wokeness) where everybody is good and only do bad things because of what life has inflicted on them so therefore cannot be held responsible for their actions. The kicker is, this idea excludes whites who are always to blame.

    With the long march through the institutions we should not be surprised that the judiciary has been so compromised. they are simply doing what they have been taught at Universities since the 1980s.

    In the ‘euphoria’ following the 1953 death of Stalin the USSR instituted a General Amnesty. All of the various classes of criminals then held in gulags or labour camps were released but any incarcerated for political crimes, including any who had come to notice because of the public profession of their Christian faith, were not.

    Stop migration of Moslems, stop funding charities for migrants which are largely funded out of Federal and State revenue, ie from our taxes while services for us (hospitals, roads,education, etc ) deteriorate more and more and Australia drowns in debt and inflation because it is supporting these people with social housing , unemployment benefits , etc while Australians are homeless. We should leave the UN, WHO and WTO. The Christian churches are assisting with their charities the destruction of the Christian Faith and of themselves in Australia which in a few years will become the Islamic State of Australia with Sharia Law . Look at what a mess the UK, France, etc are !What right have thousands of Moslems to block public streets in eg Sydney with their huge , loud prayer meetings at an early hour ?

    May I humbly add that when the church institution is silent in the face of these ongoing wicked ungodly behaviours, you know that the West is doomed …

    EXCEPT, remember 2 Chronicles 7:14.

    Anyone for seeking the face of God, with confession, repentance, fasting and prayer ?
    What God has said, He will certainly do.

    Thanks for this alert Bill and for exposing the decline in the US, the lack of justice for victims and the upside down cover up and uncalled for protection of those committing crimes. The implications are so huge it remains an out of control avalanche but for the role of prayer and those speaking up.
    Overall, it seems there is a landslide of Islam combing with Socialism and Marxism as some have observed (you have all along) and warned of the downwards slide of the West and ‘Woke’/Leftist culture.
    It remains a tragedy that Australia has chosen to follow the path of America for many decades. Earlier we just blindly copied the goals of Ameria and imported the Hollywood culture and materialistic culture but with that there was an importing of the church values and teaching in earlier days. America then banned prayer in schools and public places and various forms of ‘religion’ came into being with New Age and occultism were promoted, and ‘self’ replaced God was placed on the throne (no mention of Satan the real enemy was made). Next came new wars, times of peace and prosperity, LGBT teaching, COVID, ‘Black Lives matter’, the woke culture and of late there has emerged a pro Palestinian aggressive culture amidst the younger generation on campus and in the streets
    The recent years since COVID have seen more marriages break up, more rebellion among children, more counter culture movements, the economy decline, homelessness, and now this horrendous Anti Semitism, as well as a trend to rape , attack and murder.
    Plus President Biden has allowed over 9 million refugees/ migrants within the last 3 years to come into the USA without authorization and paperwork, which defies all common sense, since a number have extremist views, a history of crime or have their own agenda to carry out.
    It remains a tragedy to all of us who once knew law and order and knew that justice would be served to those breaking the law and to those raping women or kidnapping children or murdering in the street or a within homes.. I keep wondering if 2 Timothy Chapter 3 is being fulfilled as part of what God prophesied. ‘In the last days’ there will be times of lawlessness, disobedience to parents, men will be lovers of self and haters of God.’
    I agree with Pauline that we must seek God, humble ourselves and confess our sins as 2 Chron 1 7.14 says and agree with Countess Antonia both Australia and USA should leave the WHO (with its heavy Chinese influence), The United nations ) (with Islamic bias, Anti semitic a persecution of Israel, and mandate) and we should not blindly follow the WHO’s overtures to allow them to decide when we have lockdowns in health matters and give up our sovereign rights.
    We must pray on and where we can help make others aware or lobby but in the end I wonder if this is all part of the coming centralised Anti Christ Govt that is also prophesied. If it is here to stay, and we can only push back the darkness for so long, should we not prepare for more persecution and learn how to face deprivation of liberty like the underground church does and the visible church does in many countries where their Govt opposes the gospel and punishes those who believe in God and His word.
    Maybe we need to prepare both ways for the days ahead- for more wokeism and lack of justice, and prepare for more persecution as we share the message of the cross and the message of our eternal hope.
