Hoover, Alabama is not a real town. One might imagine that it would have been some sleepy Southern town with its own Andy and Barney back in the day, but really it was formed from a suburban area on the south side of Birmingham due to ... you guessed it (if you're a regular Peak Stupidity reader).
Birmingham played a prominent role in the instigated race rioting and destruction and the violent attempt at pushback by White Alabamans 60 years back. White people, and really anyone in favor of Freedom of Association, a limited Federal Gov't and all that, lost. As in hundreds of other cities in America, White people fled the new inner city dysfunction. This "town", really just a big suburb, had it pretty good as late as the year 2000, with over 85% White and under 7% Black. By '20, the numbers were 68% and 17%. "They're baaaaaacccck!"
If race relations can be somehow contained, something Alabamans have been dealing with much longer than much of the country, I guess someone somewhere figured they'll make life a little worse for the Alabamans of Hoover, cause, why not, right? The front of the immigration invasion involving Moslems is not the biggest, but it's significant. Cultural Destruction can ruin your town at the pounding of a judge's gavel.
Let me go back to a very old Peak Stupidity post, Nice Church ladies destroy Lewiston, Maine, in which I attempted to describe how and why townspeople will not readily stand up against these efforts to initially infiltrate, and later flood their towns with foreigners:
The poor bastards who’ve got to live with the huge change to their quality of life and culture for now on (with always a downward trend), know right away it's gonna be a bad thing, and may go to those initial town hallAs compared to what keeps happening this looks like very good news:meetings"conversations":
“We’re just bringing in downtrodden families, plus maybe a couple of poor teenagers, from Somalia. I hope there are no racist xenophobes here. If so, it’s only 15 asylum-seekers to our town of 30 thousand – how can you be so mean and nasty to object?!” Well, nobody objects. Nobody in town wants to have everyone else there look at him like that nasty foul-mouthed bad guy that isn’t compassionate enough to provide a “room at the inn”.*
At the next asylum-seeker meeting for another 20 asylum-seekers, its just the same, except you won’t even find 1/2 the people there from town to show up to object, as they can imagine how embarrassing it would be. This goes on for years, and people have kids. People find it easier to move to a different town than to say anything. You’d think that’d be silly… but no, it's pretty much all that's left to do.

This tweet (screenshot here) came from The Gateway Pundit, but I am LOATH to link to its Gateway Hispanic posts*. You can watch or read here about the plans to move Moslem school and community center from nearby Homewood to Hoover.
Hoover citizens fought back at a City Council meeting. The video is uplifting - just hear the elation and relief in the voices of those clapping after the ruling.**
It's a small thing, and after all, these particular foreigners have already been in America, Alabama, and even the same (Jefferson) county. The important question is are people finally standing up?
Uhhhh, it's not quite that great. The reader may recall a few posts we wrote about an attempt, successful too, BTW, to let apartments be built against the zoning codes, and the worry that caused nearby residents. I.e, who exactly would be living right near them? See It's a Beautiful Day in the Leafy Neighborhood and It's another beautiful day in the leafy neighborhood ....
The worries were really about a lot more residents being concentrated nearby and, the locals in the Zoom meeting*** wouldn't say it, but who they might be. However, the complaints were all about "the traffic". Sure, the traffic was something of a factor with all the kids nearby, but no...
In the case of this proposed Islamic school in Hoover, there was another vague explanation about "the guidance for that sector", some "tech village", and the "comprehensive plan", generally a bunch of BS, but "the traffic" was brought up too:
The Islamic Academy of Alabama was met with opposition at Hoover's Planning and Zoning meeting. Residents spoke on traffic issues, sticking to the comprehensive plan, and other reasons why they are against it moving to the city.The site, with the currently empty 100,000 ft2 building, is in Meadowbrook and described as off of US-280 and US-119:

I didn't capture it but the limited access road that curves around at the north is the 280.
Nah. We're talking 265 students. This is not about the traffic - it's about the Moslems! As far as I've seen on this, nobody will or nobody can say that his opposition to the school is about the Moslems. I'd really hoped that Trump's boldness over the years, and his most recent talk about the garbage Somalians especially would have emboldened regular Americans to just, well, tell the freaking truth.
There's nothing wrong with wanting your home to stay populated with your own people. There's nothing wrong to say you don't want mass influxes of strange foreigners to your town!
This is just as on the race issue, for which White Americans have danced around the truth for half a century. They feel the need to do the same regarding the Population Replacement Programme on a local level so as not to be those BAD, BAD, xenophobic, people, the type who wouldn't have let
After a little initial elation, for me this story turned disappointing. Objections claiming "the traffic!" is the problem may have** worked this time. If you use the bogus arguments (very much like "Vetting!") however, you lose the big fight, as it'll be hard for anyone to get by with an objection later when the site for a mass influx of foreigners does not present any realistic traffic problem. Maybe the "newcomers" have all been vetted too, thoroughly, I tell you, by the Defense Investigative Service. Who cares? Just say no!
I suggest people follow the lead of the President of the United States with their wording - how about some truth? I get it, though, The President has a big security detail, but you could be called names. True, you might get fired from your job too, etc, etc... but, NOT if the townspeople of the next Hoover, Alabama ALL together tell their City Council members that "We are against this plan because we want this place to remain America!
* I felt the need to read, and all but some links on the page are in English. I sent to reader to a TV station site - sorry 'bout that!
** It's only an initial ruling to "not recommend" the use of the building for that school. It's not over.
*** This was during the Deep Dark Days of the Kung Flu PanicFest.

"We'll have to get to the island next week, heck, it could be a month even, but we'll come get your newcomers in due time….
Call the Coast Guard. There's a guy named SafeNow. Tell him, I sent you.
I represent that remark! Because the USCG motto is, proudly, semper paratus, and the implication above seems to be that if you need dawdlers, call The Coast Guard.
There…I took the bait.
There is an old saying…Fast, or Careful…pick one. But the USCG manages to do BOTH. (Or at least used to.) And, while they’re at it, importantly, saves the dog.

PS: I just read some of the wiki on the city of Stuttgart, Alarmist, mainly in search of demographic info. It is not just the "new Detroit", but I'd' have called "the Detroit" back in the day (for both places) too, it being the birthplace of German cars with the appropriate Benz and Porsche museum, just as there's the Henry Ford museum.*
Yes, the AI blurb said that 40% of the people are of "foreign origin" or something. It mentioned Turks, Italians, and Greeks, but I don't know the proportions. I've been there, but it was a different time, hence a much different place... I think we visited (a tiny part of) the Black Forest).
* That's supposed to be very good, and I am pissed at myself for not going there with the family when we had down time there during traveling a few years ago.

I just heard someone refer to Stuttgart (Germany) as the New Detroit because the decline of auto suppliers’ business has cut the city’s business tax take by more than 55%. My first take is that they should be grateful they don’t have a large African population, but then again, they have been importing large numbers of other third-world denizens.
The head of one of the regional banks thinks the city will avoid Detroit’s fate by becoming an aerospace center. I guess he hasn’t paid attention to what happened to Germany’s aviation biz since the last big war. There is a European Space Agency, but the rockets are French. Go figure.

PS: Good morning, Jim.
No, Vin-yed residents don't get asked the tough questions. Maybe had Trump been the President at that time, he could have given the Mass Guard some other type of assignment... "We'll have to get to the island next week, heck, it could be a month even, but we'll come get your newcomers in due time. In the meantime, keep those yard signs flying..."
"Call the Coast Guard. There's a guy named SafeNow. Tell him, I sent you."

That would've been a good question for the people of Martha's Vineyard, but they were never asked that question for some strange reason.

I can't tell exactly what level of facetiousness, on a scale of 1 to 11, you had there. I would want to make sure the Coast Guard didn't get called (I'll put it that way) for a month, to give the Vin-yed residents a chance to enjoy their diversity.
Right now, all they've got again is some black homo who doesn't even ack black. Tell him you need to recite a line to audition for a part in a Woody Allen movie. Say "Ask me if these pretzels are making me thirsty."
If Obama says "axe", he's really on the ball that day. He has a hard time doing Black!
Woah, way off the or any subject there, haha.
Thanks for the comment SafeNow. I hope the Coast Guard will save an occasional cat too!
