Despite the best efforts of government and mainstream media in the United Kingdom and elsewhere, the shameful and horrific death of Henry Nowak back in December is now more or less world news. The English town of Southampton, where he lived, has only now begun to enjoy the sort of mostly peaceful demonstration enjoyed across Europe and America in the wake of George Floyd’s death back in 2020. Of course, Floyd’s mistreatment at the hands of police accompanied by the drugs in his body and his heart disease all caused his death. Nowak was bleeding out from five stab wounds after police laughingly handcuffed him; his dying words were the same as Floyd’s: “I can’t breathe.” The policewoman on the scene cheerfully replied to the dying youth, “I don’t think so, mate!”

The two affairs contrast magnificently with each other in other ways. Floyd’s death received microscopic attention and massive publicity from the government, media, and education industries—and official encouragement for such as Antifa and BLM. This resulted in mostly peaceful protesters burning buildings, toppling statues, and occasionally killing hapless folk across the United States and Western Europe (we even had demonstrations in Austria). All sorts of celebrities and government creatures “took the knee” across the globe. Even future Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, KB, PC, KC, and MP participated and paid this humiliating tribute to the fallen Floyd.

Despite the identical last words and also receiving death by cop (a number of physicians have come forward to say that Nowak could have survived if first aid had been applied—rather than ridicule and handcuffs), Nowak’s case has been quite different. Only in recent weeks, because of social media, has his horrific story finally become public knowledge. Of course, the three industries earlier mentioned who were so instrumental in making George Floyd a household name were just as invested in keeping Henry Nowak’s case quiet. 

Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy, the son of Guyanese parents, was instrumental in importing and defending the whole taking the knee thing in Britain. Just a few days ago, as this article was being written, LBC radio host Nick Ferrari interviewed him; the result was a truly eye-opening exchange: “Would you take the knee for Henry Nowak?”

Lammy instantly flustered: “Uhh…well I, look, I, I, I, I think…to honour what’s that family…”

Ferrari responds: “It’s a yes or no, Mr. Lammy. Would you take the knee for Henry Nowak?”

Lammy, squirming: “I think…no. Because, look, I don’t think the family are asking for symbolism. They’re asking for genuine common-sense policing and a reduction in knife crime.”

Ferrari responds: “So you agree, taking the knee is mere symbolism? It was a bit of a charade at times?”

Lammy stumblingly replies: “That was a moment back then when we were still in the pandemic. This is today. This is this particular incident in our country that’s heart-rending.”

This silly response has not helped, and protesters have yelled at police to “take the knee” in Nowak’s honor. There is a special way of doing it: one goes down on one knee, ala Ford, but then places one’s right hand over one’s heart.

Of course, the three industries earlier mentioned who were so instrumental in making George Floyd a household name were just as invested in keeping Henry Nowak’s case quiet.Tweet This

Upsetting or amusing as all of this might be, the Nowak case is the tip of the iceberg. All over Britain, Ireland, and Western Europe there are innumerable attacks by immigrants—very often Muslim, although Nowak’s murderer was a Sikh (rather unusual for a generally law-abiding people), on native; often the natives are women, the elderly, or the young. Burning churches has become popular, as has vandalizing monuments.

These phenomena are not confined to Europe but can be found in North America and Australasia. Indeed, former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau virtually legitimized burning Catholic churches in response to claims of mass Indian graves at Catholic Mission Schools in that country—claims later proved fraudulent, although the churches remained burned when the lie was revealed. At the same time, in many such places, public Muslim prayers are tolerated or encouraged while Christian are not; there are “no go zones” where native inhabitants may not safely travel—and in some cases are being considered for Sharia Law (save, of course, beheading for murder).

Now, while many if not most perpetrators of such crimes go free or are coddled, all the force of law is brought against those who notice these problems. This is the famous “two-tier policing,” which, while ignoring the foregoing, is ever vigilant against alleged racism. Indeed, Nowak’s murderer covered his tracks long enough for Nowak to die in handcuffs by invoking the “R” word.

To be fair, in all of these places, the police are merely the stooges of the rulership and are paid to enforce the “values,” if one may call them that, of those in charge. Paid-off immigrants mean votes for the current regimes, and their dwindling native populations cannot be relied to vote in the right way—that is, for said regimes.

They in turn, and their accompanying media and education industries, demonize their opponents and any who notice these phenomena as “far right.” Harassing them in various ways—legal and almost legal—these measures serve only to radicalize them further, as well as increasing numbers of the native Europeans. One symptom of this is the “Remigration Movement,” which aims to send all or part of the newcomers back whence they came.

On May 30, a “Remigration Summit” was held in Oporto, Portugal, bringing together activists from all over Europe. They defined “Remigration” thusly:

Remigration is the answer to decades of replacement migration and multiculturalism that have disintegrated our nations to the point of dysfunction. It is a democratic, legal, and long-term process (20-30 years) aimed at returning illegal immigrants and harmful legal migrants, and putting pressure on the non-assimilated parallel societies in order to reharmonize the nation culturally. It is not a sudden shock, but a continuous process.

Those behind the Summit are gathering signatures for the “Save Europe Act.” When a million signatures are gathered, this will be presented to the European Commission in Brussels—equivalently the EU Cabinet. On their website, the presenters declare:

Our Demands to the Elites: These are the essential steps to build a Europe worth defending. The Save Europe Act condenses the demands of European patriotic movements and parties into one powerful mandate. By reaching 1 million signatures, we will force the European Commission to meet with organizers and debate our demands. Help us take the fight for remigration to Brussels!

I encourage you to read the Save Europe Act in its entirety.

Some will of course talk about racism. But the real racism is that of public authorities who do not believe that non-whites are capable of decent behavior. In our own country, few care that the largest single cause of death among young black men is other young black men. But this is never addressed.

In countries with two-tier policing, the authorities may be keen on ferreting out what they consider to be objectionable posts online. But they have no care at all for the abuse law-abiding members of the non-British communities receive from the criminals in their midst. All of this is very definitely racism!

But one thing that does not enter the public discussion too often is how much Europe’s loss of Faith has reduced her to where she is—with governance in the hands of the culturally suicidal. Moreover, we are at a moment in history when the Salvation of Mankind, individually or in groups, is not a major priority to most hierarchs. These two phenomena have helped put us where we are.

But when Europe had the Faith, she ennobled the world with it. This was the real “White Man’s Burden,” and all the other benefits Kipling enumerates sprang from it. I suppose the hatred of a large part of his civil leadership is his new burden, but it is a symptom of an issue that Dom Guéranger approaches—and which I have quoted in this magazine before:

The Christian People (in which both prince and beggar are equally subjects) is superior to every other, in intellectual and moral worth. It carries civilisation with it wheresoever it goes, for it carries with it the true notion of God and of the supernatural end of man. Barbarism recedes; pagan institutions, how ancient soever they may be, are forced to give way. Even Greece and Rome laid down their own to adopt the laws of the Christian Code—the Code which was based on the Gospel. So, too, in our own times, the mere sight of a Christian army, though composed of but a few thousand men, struck terror into the heart of an immense Empire of the East: its Ruler who counts four hundred million subjects and calls himself the “Son of the Celestial Empire,” was so overcome by fear that, without offering the slightest resistance, he fled from his palaces and Capital. Yes—this is the superiority given by Baptism to Christian Nations; for it would be absurd to attribute this superiority to our civilisation, seeing that civilisation itself is but a consequence of Baptism.

But this superiority is definitely conditional, as Dom Guéranger also reminds us:

And we, the western nations, if we return not to the Lord our God, shall we be spared? Shall the flood-gates of heaven’s vengeance, the torrent of fresh Vandals, ever be menacing to burst upon us, yet never come? Where is the country of our own Europe, that has not corrupted its way, as in the days of Noah? That has not made conventions against the Lord and against His Christ? That has not clamored out that old cry of revolt: Let us break their bonds asunder, let us cast away their yoke from us? Well may we fear lest the time is at hand, when, despite our haughty confidence in our means of defense, Christ our Lord, to whom all nations have been given by the Father, shall rule us with a rod of iron, and break us in “pieces like a potter’s vessel.”

This sounds very much like the fate the European Defence Act is attempting to address. But the ultimate reasons for the evils its supporters decry are religious—and the issue is one that few priests or politicians will approach.

But, as Dom Guéranger also reminds us, Truth shall ultimately triumph:

If, later on again, our Europe be misled by false theories and break with the Church; if this beloved Spouse of Jesus be betrayed and pillaged, calumniated and deprived of her rights by those very Nations which she had protected for so many ages, as the most loving of Mothers;—fear not; the Holy Ghost will add to her glories in some other way. Look at his present workings in the Church. Whence, if not from him, are those ever-increasing vocations to the apostolic ministry? Moreover, while conversions from heresy are more numerous than at any previous period, there is not an infidel country where the Gospel is not being preached. Our century has had its Martyrs for the Faith; it has heard the authorities of China and Cochin China, like the Proconsuls of old, putting the Christians through an examination; it has heard the sublime answers, suggested by the Holy Ghost to these brave Confessors, as Christ had promised. (Matthew 10:20) The farthest East produces its elect; the negroes of Africa are evangelized; and if a fifth part of the World has been made known, it already counts its Faithful by thousands, flourishing under a hierarchy of lawfully appointed Pastors.

At the end of the day, baptismal water is thicker than blood, even if few among even clerical or lay Catholics believe that—or anything else!
