What was astonishing was the lack of introspection displayed by the parrots-of-color who went after Van Der Mark. Not one of them paused to ponder why it’s okay to say “people of color” but not “colored people,” or why “colored people” is the newest new “nigger” even though it’s the “CP” in NAACP. Nope, the ADL told local people of color, “Sic her! She said ‘colored people,’” and the people of color who are not colored people followed suit, while the ADL sat back with pride, knowing that its use of people of color to do its bidding will totally silence the conspiracy theorists who claim that Jews use people of color to do their bidding.

And while the not-colored people of color may have been egged on by the ADL, the anti–Van Der Mark mob soon gained its own momentum because of her vocal support for the anti-sanctuary-city lawsuit. Indeed, Van Der Mark’s “colored” comments were posted in August 2017, but only became a major issue after the sanctuary vote last month.

In the end, Van Der Mark, who is herself Latina, managed to retain her finance-commission position, after a strong showing by friends and supporters at a city-council meeting a few weeks ago. And what we’re left with is a story with no good guys. The alt-right thugs were wrong to break up a meeting that those nutty SJWs had every right to hold. The nutty SJWs were wrong for thinking that anything could be gained by jerking each other off for two hours while looking at slides of the 1920s Klan. The “presenter” was wrong for lying about the Leo Frank case because telling the truth might have divided the room’s blacks and Jews. The ADL was wrong to enlist Orange County colored people of color to fight a proxy battle to hide the fact that what really pissed off the ADL was that Van Der Mark had rather accurately described their MO. The Orange County colored people of color were wrong for being so dunderheaded that they never stopped to ask, “Why is ‘colored people’ a capital offense but ‘people of color’ a cherished term?” The Huntington Beach city government was wrong to remove Van Der Mark from her school-district positions over such a flimsy offense. And Van Der Mark was wrong not just for being part of the mob that busted up the SJW meeting, but also for featuring a playlist (titled “Holohoax”) of ridiculous, religion-based Holocaust denial videos (“the Bible sez the Jews are the masters of the lie so therefore they lied about the Holocaust”) on the same YouTube page where she posted the videos of the August melee. This is the kind of questionable judgment that made it hard for some people to defend her.

So a plague on everyone’s house in this story.

On the plus side, Huntington Beach is now part of a growing coalition of cities that are rebelling against Sacramento’s declaration that illegal aliens who commit violent crimes are a protected class of people to be shielded from harm like our beloved delta smelt. Maybe opposing Sacramento’s destructive legislative agenda should have been the priority the entire time. Maybe the alt-right, with its focus on aping Antifa, promoting Holocaust denial, and telling U.S.-born Jews to “go back to Europe,” did more harm than good in this little episode.

But bless their hearts, it’s not like they’re gonna change anytime soon. The alt-right is the right’s Billy Carter, our Roger Clinton, our Onyango Obama. You know you share a little DNA, but damn, they just ain’t right in the head.

So thus endeth the Battle of Huntington Beach. All that’s left now is to see if using “colored people” in the title of this piece earns me another 30-day Facebook ban. If so, try to catch me on Twitter.
