Former Carriage Site Now an 'Industrial Park'
June 6, 2014 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
More than two and a half years after Carriage Inc. closed its doors, eliminating 200 jobs in Millersburg, Ind., a group of smaller employers are breathing new life into the site.
The Elkhart Truth reported that Indianapolis-based Key Auctioneers, the court-appointed receiver for the property at S.R. 13 and C.R. 42, has reached agreements to sell all 16 parcels of land at the site, said Key Auctioneers executive vice president Tim Boeglin.
"The good news is we had a 50-acre property with documented environmental problems, and we were able to subdivide that, annex part of it, rezone it, and were able to sell every single parcel," Boeglin said. "Those all will go into productive use. I think you'll see a pretty vibrant set of businesses over there. I know it's been painful for Millersburg, particularly the loss of revenues when a company the size of Carriage goes out of business, but I think in the long term the community will be better off."
Carriage started in the late 1960s and built a reputation for quality high-end fifth-wheels, employing more than 275 workers at its peak. The company ended production abruptly in 2011 after it was unable to reach an agreement with PNC Bank over a loan. Redwood RV, a subsidiary of Elkhart-based Thor Industries Inc., bought the defunct company's assets in February of 2012,
For about a year after Carriage's closure, progress was slow for Key Auctioneers as it tried to sell the property as a single 55-acre tract before deciding to carve it up into parcels and market to smaller companies.

Indy Firm Selling Subdivided Carriage Campus
August 8, 2013 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
The former Carriage Inc. recreational vehicle plant in Millersburg, Ind., has been subdivided into 15 separate parcels that are now listed for sale individually, Key Auctioneers of Indianapolis announced Wednesday (Aug. 7).
"Until recently, we have only been able to offer the property as a single, 55-acre tract," said Jeff Doner, principal broker at Key Auctioneers. "With the initial rezoning and subdivision work now complete, we have the chance to offer much smaller tracts. We already have four parcels under contract and have had numerous inquiries on others. It's exciting to see that many small- and mid-size operations will begin to breathe life back into this ready-made industrial campus over the coming months."
The campus, which is centrally located between major recreational vehicle, modular housing and transportation manufacturing hubs in Elkhart, Lagrange, and Noble counties, has been divided into 15 parcels. The largest of the parcels is a 12-acre tract listed for $2.9 million. It includes Carriage's former 160,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and three other buildings. The smallest parcel is a one-acre tract with a 2,000-square-foot storage building. It was listed for $20,000 and is already under contract. Taken together, the 15 parcels are listed for $5.6 million.
Carriage started as an idea in a pole barn in the late 1960s and evolved into a national leader in the luxury fifth-wheel market. At its peak, Carriage employed over 275 workers before halting production in late 2011 due to financial difficulties.

Former Carriage Inc. 55-Acre Complex for Sale
September 4, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
A little over 10 months after Carriage Inc. shut down its luxury RV operations, the former company's 55-acre site in Millersburg, Ind., is up for sale, The Elkhart Truth reported.
The campus includes 19 buildings, according to information from Key Auctioneers of Indianapolis, the company handling the sale and also serving as court-appointed receiver for the company's assets.
"This premier industrial real estate offers endless potential for buyers in manufacturing, engineering and distribution," said Jeff Doner, principal broker at Key Auctioneers. "Among the property's 19 buildings is a five-year-old, 170,000-square-foot manufacturing facility. The facility is state-of-the-art with high ceilings, wide bays, lots of power and plenty of loading doors."
Carriage started in the late 1960s and built a reputation for quality high-end fifth wheels. The company ended production abruptly last year, putting about 200 people out of work after it was unable to reach an agreement with PNC Bank over a loan, according to court documents.
The company's assets were auctioned off in February. Thor Industries' Redwood RV bought the Carriage name and brands at that auction.
RV Industry Veteran Kinney Remembers Carriage
March 9, 2012 by RVBusiness · Leave a Comment
Editor's Note: The following is an article from the Elkhart (Ind.) Truth featuring industry veteran Ed Kinney detailing the demise of venerable builder Carriage Inc. To view the entire story and accompanying pictures click here. Kinney can be contacted at (574) 596-7444 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
On a recent morning inside his studio, Ed Kinney was gluing pebbles onto his latest creation, a fairy house, and listening to a recording of singer Tony Bennett. Behind him sat a barber chair, sink and large mirror for the times when someone drops by for a quick haircut.
Kinney is an artist, a barber, an entertaining talker and a former RV industry executive who watched Carriage Inc. crumble from the inside. He harbors sadness and anger over the demise of the luxury fifth wheel maker, admitting he had a difficult time coming to terms with the company's closure.
Yet when he talks about Carriage, the stories that come out first are the happy ones.
"Carriage, I always told people it was a magical place because of the people," he said. "They took the time to do things right. They had a schedule but if something was wrong, they stopped the whole line to fix it. They had a lot of pride in what they were doing."
Founded in the late 1960s, Carriage produced well-built, high-quality recreational vehicles at its Millersburg campus. In October 2011, production abruptly halted and then a few days later, PNC Bank filed a lawsuit against the manufacturer, stating Carriage was in default of its obligations to the bank.
The real estate has been put into receivership at the request of PNC and the assets were auctioned in a marathon session that lasted 14 hours Feb. 21. Kinney, the former vice president of sales and marketing, said he attended the sale long enough to see CrossRoads RV, a division of Thor Industries, purchase the Carriage intellectual property, including the name and fiberglass molds.
Ironically, Kinney's RV career ended at the same place it began, Carriage. He had just closed his small barbershop to pursue a job offer in the manufactured housing industry that quickly turned sour. Kinney was then thrown a lifeline by Clarence Yoder, the founder of Carriage, who offered him the opportunity to learn about making and selling fifth wheels.
"Carriage was special because it was a great company with incredible people," Kinney said.

Redwood RV Acquires Carriage Rights at Auction
February 22, 2012 by Bruce Hampson · 7 Comments
On a snowy Indiana morning that was clouded with the past, the future emerged bright as Syracuse, Ind.-based Redwood RV, a division of Thor Industries Inc., purchased the brand names, trademarks and intellectual property of venerable RV manufacturer Carriage Inc. Tuesday (Feb. 21) during a court-ordered liquidation of Carriage assets.
Carriage, a luxury fifth-wheel manufacturer established in 1969, was ordered into liquidation following protracted discussions between company executives and its lenders, primarily PNC Bank out of Indianapolis. Ultimately, PNC filed suit Oct. 18 to take possession of Carriage, which reportedly owed the bank more than $5 million.
More than 700 bidders had reportedly registered with Ross, Ohio-based Myron Bowling Auctioneers Inc. for the one-day event. Bidding for the Carriage intangible assets was the high point of the event, which also included everything from lots of axles to finished fifth-wheels.
"It's a historic brand, it's been around for more than 40 years, and we think there's a place for historical brands in this industry," said Don Emahiser, president of both Redwood RV and Topeka, Ind.-based CrossRoads RV. "And we think we're a company that's up to the challenge of continuing its legacy."
Emahiser told RVBUSINESS.com that the Thor division had its eye on the Carriage brand since the former Millersburg, Ind., company had faltered last fall and it became evident that the intellectual property might become available.
"Once the company shut down, we knew the name would be available and, yes, there was an attraction there," Emahiser noted. "But up until then, no, because Redwood's been doing amazingly well.
"It's (Carriage) a brand name we felt we could do something with — and if it became available, who better than us to carry on the tradition?
"But it wasn't something we planned until Carriage went out of business."
Emahiser said his own personal link to Carriage — he was president of the builder prior to moving to Thor two years ago and helping to establish Redwood — was an element in the decision to acquire the Carriage brand.
"Not only that," he added, "but we have a lot of Carriage DNA throughout Redwood and CrossRoads. Likewise, the changes we have going on here have attracted people with Carriage in their background.
"We have, beyond myself, in other executive positions, group leaders, foremen, all the way down to entry-level spots. So we have a good amount of the carriage DNA here. When the brands became available to us it was almost a natural to try to make a play for them."
According to Emahiser, there is no timetable or firm plans to announce when the Thor division will bring back the Carriage name, which was reportedly purchased for $100,000.

Carriage Proposal Was 'Right Fit' for EverGreen
January 23, 2012 by RVBusiness · 1 Comment
The story of the demise of fifth-wheel RV maker Carriage Inc. has all the makings of a typical news story on a factory being shut down.
As reported by the South Bend Tribune, nearly 200 knowledgeable, hardworking employees were battling to keep their 42-year-old Millersburg, Ind., company afloat during the recession and its aftermath, only to come into work Oct. 17, 2011, and learn Carriage was closing.
It might have ended there.
But the management team of Carriage opted to make a pitch to EverGreen Recreational Vehicles LLC of Middlebury, Ind., maker of light, eco-friendly travel trailers.
"Basically they made a presentation that really fits the mold of what we're trying to do with EverGreen, with the quality, with the green (segment) and the integrity, and had some good product design activities," said EverGreen CEO Michael Schoeffler. "And they were in the high-end fifth wheel, and it matched our strategic plan."
But not perfectly.
Launching a fifth-wheel brand in 2012 was about 12 to 18 months ahead of EverGreen's schedule. However, the opportunity was too good to pass up.
"As we sat and met with these people," Schoeffler said, "and looked at what was available in this county, we said, 'you know, we can't pass on an opportunity all the time, because it might not be there 12 to 15 months from now.'"
And so in November, EverGreen agreed to launch its own fifth-wheel brand, Lifestyle Luxury RV, with the aid of the former Carriage personnel.
It was the right thing to do, Schoeffler noted, "because these people have a good, long history of building high-end fifth wheels that we wanted to be in."
In mid-November, EverGreen hired 15 people from the former Carriage Inc.
Another 60 to 85 workers from Carriage are expected to be added later this year as production of the new Lifestyle Luxury RV fifth-wheels begins in March.
More could be hired in the future, too, Schoeffler said.
"This is a product and market that is much different than what we're in today," Schoeffler said. "And the consumer is much different. These people have just years and years of experience of high-end luxury fifth wheels, and those customers. That's what was so attractive."
For Greg Kitson and his former co-workers from Carriage, getting back in their old business in a nearby location was quite a break.
"We are thrilled it was able to come together so quickly," said Kitson, director of engineering and product development for Lifestyle Luxury RV. "We are thrilled to be able to come to look towards tomorrow to be able to put great people back to work.
"That's where the thrill and the passion come from. The other part of the passion is building a great product."
Officially, Lifestyle Luxury RV is a stand-alone company that is a division of EverGreen, Kitson said.
"What EverGreen did is that they've taken their expertise out there and put themselves out there and really tried to separate themselves from the marketplace," he said. "Lifestyle will do the same thing.
"We're at different price points and different products with different techniques, but all in all it still comes down to the people involved and how you take care of dealers, customers, suppliers and employees. It's a great opportunity for all who are involved in this."
Carriage Workers Getting New Start at EverGreen
January 13, 2012 by RVBusiness · 3 Comments
To watch an accompanying video on this story click here.
About 200 people lost their jobs when Carriage Inc. shut down, but there is good news as many of those workers have joined forces to form a new company.
WSBT, South Bend, reported that work is currently under way in Middlebury, Ind., to open a new company known as Lifestyle Luxury RV. It aims to make high-end fifth wheel travel trailers at a vacant factory. The driving force behind the new company is a good number of people who used to work at Carriage in Millersburg, including Greg Kitson who worked at the company for nearly 20 years.
"We have a lot of people on board that have a lot of years of service, a lot of expertise in what they do and great people," said Kitson. "They are the most loyal people."
Kitson, along with other former Carriage employees, developed an idea to keep that workforce together and help develop a new company.
"We had a plan and a vision," he said.
As a group, they approached Evergreen Recreational Vehicles LLC, which has been in business for three years and makes towable RVs. They proposed teaming up with Evergreen to create a new division, to make high-end fifth wheels. Evergreen already had plans to get into luxury fifth-wheels within the next 18 months.
"We were impressed with their cohesiveness," said Michael Schoeffler, CEO of Evergreen RV. "They had the same values, the same type of business principles that we have as a company, and then they approached us within a week's time. We put together a plan, hired them, and kicked the program off."
Lifestyle Luxury RV will be a separate division, operated by mostly former Carriage employees under Evergreen.
For the former Carriage employees and Evergreen, it is a win-win situation. They will have a new product line and a new beginning for some with high hopes for the future.
"Carriage was a great place to work and a great bunch of people," said Dana Everage, a former Carriage employee. "I am sure we can make this even better."
They recently purchased 100,000 square foot vacant factory and will spend upwards of $2.5 million on improving the plant.
Carriage Founder, Employee Recall Good Times
January 11, 2012 by RVBusiness · 3 Comments
Editor's Note: The following are letters to the editor published in the Goshen (Ind.) News offering thoughts on Carriage Inc.'s demise from the company's founder, Clarence T. Yoder, and his wife Ideana, and Dean Miller, a long-time employee.
This letter is long overdue, but with the closing of Carriage it has prompted us to write.
From 1968 to 1999, Carriage, Inc. was our life. You were like a family to us, and we can never express our appreciation enough. There have been so many talented, loyal employees that have given their all throughout the years. It was your pride in the product, working together, and cooperation that made Carriage tick.
We are very saddened by this turn of events that brings an end to the Carriage era. We wish each of you our very best, and hope you will contribute to another company as you have to Carriage through the years.
Please keep in touch and thanks again.
— C.T. and Ideana Yoder
To all the former Carriage employees I consider it a privilege and a blessing to have been able to work at a place that was built on integrity. In working with you the past 20-plus years, many of you became good friends and you made Carriage a good place of employment, one that produced a quality product.
Through the years quite a number of people left for "greener pastures" and then came back to Carriage largely because of the good atmosphere that was created by you, my fellow workers. The past number of years, especially the last couple of months, has been a struggle and disappointing to many of you. As you move on to new jobs and the future, remember to keep your priorities in order and keep being a positive influence in your world.
Working at Carriage has been a good experience for me personally. Thanks to Clarence and Ideana Yoder for your years of caring for your employees and the community. God bless you all in your future.
— Dean Miller

I have some questions regarding video/film-editing.
I know exactly nothing about video and such, so I went out to some local stores & asked a few questions. Now I'm more confused than ever...
What I want to do
I (=my parents) have approx 2 hrs of film, 20-40 years old. Super-8 I think it's called.
I'm going to transfer it to video, I'll simply "film the film" using my analog video-camera. It has RCA + S-video.
I want to be able to edit (cut/copy/paste only, no fiddling with colours or anything like that). Also make video-tapes using parts of different films (like "summer -68", "the life of our dog" etc).
I want to add a heading (a picture or just text) at the beginning of each sequence. I also want to add some sound - background music, a speaker voice here and there.
What I have
AMD K62*500, Nvidia TNT2 32MB, 2GB free HD-space + 20GB on a
network-server. No TV or S-video on graphics card.
I'm currently running Mandrake 8.2
Questions: 1. Hardware
I need S-video input. You could buy special TV-cards, there are also graphicscards available with S-video.
Visiting 4 computer stores this is what they tell me:
* Buy the cheapest card if you're running Linux - more expensive cards mainly add software.
* Cheap cards only have S-video out, you need a 250$ card.
* Cheap cards have S-video in, but they don't do any compression. You can't do any editing with them
* A 70$ TV-card or a 70$ graphics-card are just the same - they'll work fine.
* Don't even think about the 70$ graphics-card, the SVideo-quality is too bad. A cheap TV-card is OK, though.
Could someone please tell me what I need?
If possible, the best would be to buy a good PCI graphics card, when I'm finished I'll put it in my kid's computer (today they have a 2MB Mach64, ISA I think ..)
Questions: 2. Software
I have tried bcast2000, I find it a bit difficult to understand. The documentation might be good if you're familiar with the basics - but I'm not. What about Xine or XMovie? So far I haven't managed to do anything with them? But they are not editing programs, are they?
Is there any distribution that's aimed "specifically" at video-editing? And which programs are the best to use (remember, I will need a manual!)
GIMP had an interesting feature: opening a.mpg it gave me 133 layers, one picture in each. Maybe I could use this to create my headings? Can I actually edit a movie with GIMP?
Questions: 3. Drivers
Record driver - not really a hardware driver, is it?
I guess each card has its own driver, the "Video4Linux" etc is for communication between bcast and the real hardware driver? (OSS works although I'm using ALSA)
I'm not sure about this, but maybe I don't have to bother?
Any ideas, hints & suggestions are welcome!

Heidi Klum always felt great about her body
Supermodel Heidi Klum says she is very confident about her body, and feels great about it.
However, the 40-year-old, who is also the mother of Leni, nine, Henry, eight, Johan, seven, and Lou, four, has noticed she has to work harder to retain her figure.
"I've always felt great about my body. I've always been very confident, and I still am. I wouldn't go to the gym in a sports bra and little shorts - I feel like everything's jiggling around. But I didn't do that before, either," femalefirst.co.uk. quoted Klum as saying.
"The metabolism definitely changes when you turn 40. I always thought, That's not going to happen to me, but it is happening to me. If I indulge more, I have to exercise more. I figured out what works for me," she added.

You've all heard of Thai Fish Cakes, right? I love them. Spicy, little bundles of fishy goodness, dipped in a sweet and spicy sauce. Great for appetisers at a party or as part of a Thai meal or banquet. I thought about replacing the fish with chicken as I might have better luck getting my daughter to try them. I know this is wishful thinking as the only chicken she'll eat is if it's covered in crumbs and is in a 'nugget' shape, if you know what I mean.
You could serve these up, as is, with the dipping sauce or as I did for a main meal. A bit of brown rice and a tossed salad with the dipping sauce used as the salad dressing.
Thai Chicken Cakes
(Based on Thai Fish Cake recipe on www.taste.com)
- 1 large chicken breast, roughly chopped then blended to a smooth mince (alternatively, use chicken mince OR 500gm white fish for Thai fish cakes)
- 2 tbs Gourmet Garden Thai blend (OR 2 tbs red curry paste instead of the Gourmet Garden ingredients)
- 1 tbs Gourmet Garden Coriander
- 1 tbs Gourmet Garden Chilli
- 2 tbs fish sauce
- 1 tsp white sugar
- 1 tbs lime juice
- 6-8 green beans, diced
- oil for frying
- Mix all ingredients together.
- Drop tablespoons of mixture into moderately heated oil, ie not too hot, to allow thorough cooking of the chicken.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes and turn.
- Drain on absorbent paper.
- Serve with Oriental Dipping Sauce and/or salad and steamed rice.
- Combine cold water, vinegar and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat.
- Cooking, stirring, for 4 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a simmer. Cook for 5 minutes or until slightly syrupy. Remove from heat.
- Add chilli and fish sauce. Stir to combine. Set aside to cool.

NS ASDK VBscript in DS Job not executing
Hi all,
environment: DS 6.9 SP5 MR2 and NS 7.1 SP2 installed on the same Win2008R2 server.
I am trying to use a vbscript in deployment server 6.9 which leverages the NS ASDK to add a newly deployed computer to an NS filter.
The code used is well known on connect and it is working if I execute it manually on the server.
If I use this script (embedded or referencing a vbs file) in a DS job (using 'run local on deployment server') it will stay in the running state forever. When adding some logging to the script the first lines are executed with no issue and the script hangs on the first line which uses the ASDK. More specifically on initializing Collection management ==> Set oCollectionManagement = CreateObject("Altiris.ASDK.NS.CollectionManagement"). The Altiris service is running with a 'priviliged' domain user account.
Has anyone seen this behaviour? I have read some post which states it might have to do with some COM assemblies not correctly registered.
I am seeing this in two different environments having the same setup (latest DS and NS versions on same 2008R2 machine)
Tnx for the response

Hi Stefan,
Yes, it is in the Symantec Administrators group.
I have seen this behaviour now in 4 different environments all with the same infrastructure setup (Win2008R2 with DS and NS on the same machine).
I would like to have someone confirm to have it working or not in the same infrastructure setup.

I do not have this setup so I cannot confirm if it works or not. However, I have some Run Script jobs in the DS 6.9 which call the ASDK and they work fine. But actually I use the webservices instead.
Here a little snippet:
Dim objHTTP
Set objHTTP = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
objHTTP.open "GET", "http://nsserver/altiris/asdk.ns/ItemManagementService.asmx/DeleteItem", False
objHTTP.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
objHTTP.send "itemGuid=" & machineGuid
Set objHTTP = nothing
This for sure works also with the "Collection" webservices.
Hi Stefan,
The scripts I use are also working fine on previous/older DS installation environments, so the script itself is not the problem. Its really the specific environment.
I also already tried to use powershell and webservices, but the same problem arises (and not when I run manually on server).
It really is some problem in creating/initializing the objects.
Anyways, for now, I have a workaround in place, which actually creates a dynamic scheduled task on the server itself (based on token replacement), running the script from this scheduled task and then again deleting the created task.
Tnx for the response and effort!

Which Treatment is Right for me?
There are many different types of massage. The technique can vary from country to country or even region to region. It can be difficult knowing which treatment is best for you, especially if this is your first massage. Know that no matter which technique you choose you will be treated with care and compassion and the treatment will be designed to fit your needs. This is not a one massage fits all spa! We strive to work with our clients in a respectful and open way to achieve optimal results both physical and mental. Now sit back, relax and let us do all the work!
Swedish Massage
Probably the best-known type of bodywork. One of the primary goals of the Swedish massage technique is to relax the entire body. This is accomplished by rubbing the muscles with long gliding strokes in the direction of blood returning to the heart. Swedish massage is exceptionally beneficial for increasing the level of oxygen in the blood, decreasing muscle toxins, improving circulation and flexibility while easing tension.
Deep Tissue Massage
Aimed at the deeper tissue structures of the muscle and fascia, also called connective tissue. Deep tissue massage uses many of the same movements and techniques as Swedish massage, but the pressure will generally be more intense. It is a more focused type of massage, the therapist works to release chronic muscle tension or knots.
Hot Stone
Specialized stones called basalt stones are used to create a luxurious and relaxing massage. These stones hold heat, helping to create a deep tissue massage to work tight, knotted muscles and release tension. Hot stone massage is relaxing and is known to have some health benefits. Cold stones are sometimes used alone or in combination with hot stones.
Paraffin Dip
The hands or feet are immersed into a bath of melted paraffin infused with lavender. The heat from the paraffin increases the blood supply to the area being treated. Moisture is drawn from the underlying layers of the skin, the moisture surfaces and mixes with the applied moisturizer. This fluid is unable to evaporate because of the paraffin glove. It is then infused back into the skin resulting in the most successful way to rejuvenate, hydrate and nourish the skin. It also helps to relieve muscle aches and arthritis pain.

Ranger Cookies
- 2 cups all-purpose white flour
- 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
- Generous 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup (1 stick plus 2 2/3 tablespoons) unsalted butter, slightly softened
- 1/2 cup white vegetable shortening
- 1 1/3 cups packed light brown sugar
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 cups corn flakes, crushed
- 1 1/4 cups (5 ounces) chopped pecans
- 1 1/4 cups (about 3 1/2 ounces) shredded or flaked sweetened coconut
Preheat the oven to 375�F. Grease several baking sheets or coat with nonstick spray.
In a medium bowl, thoroughly stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together the butter and shortening until lightened. Add the brown sugar and sugar and beat until fluffy and smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until evenly incorporated. Beat or stir in the flour mixture until evenly incorporated. Stir in the oats, corn flakes, pecans, and coconut until evenly incorporated. Let the dough stand for 5 to 10 minutes, or until firmed up slightly.
Shape portions of the dough into generous golf-ball-sized balls with lightly greased hands. Place on the baking sheets, spacing about 3 inches apart. Using your hand, pat down the balls until about 1/3 inch thick.
Bake the cookies, one sheet at a time, in the upper third of the oven for 8 to 11 minutes, or until tinged with brown and just beginning to firm up in the centers; be careful not to overbake. Transfer the sheet to a wire rack and let stand until the cookies firm up slightly, about 3 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer the cookies to wire racks. Let stand until completely cooled.
Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 1 month.

Text from London Riot: 'We're Not Broke, But Who Says No to Free Stuff'
Britain's political left just can't wait to justify violence, destruction, and degradation.
August 9, 2011 - 3:08 pm
So much for the "police oppression" excuse. What about the "lack of jobs"? It's true that there's severe unemployment in some of the areas where rioting has broken out; and those areas have, like the rest of the country, been affected by government cuts. But many of the rioters have jobs, while many youngsters who are unemployed are taking no part in the violence; unemployment is equally bad, or worse, in other parts of the country, but people don't burn down and loot shopping centers in protest. And if these young people are so concerned about jobs, we might ask why they're burning down shops and other businesses that employ local people.
The fact is that many of those doing the looting aren't poor: "we're not broke, but who says no to free stuff" read one of the text messages advertising the looting of a particular store, and many of them are apparently able to afford a BlackBerry. And most of those rioters who don't have a job wouldn't want one if they were offered it — why bother to work when you can spend your days high on drink and on drugs, and make a comfortable living by topping up your state benefits with the proceeds of crime?
As for the "anger," while there was certainly a mood of anger towards the police on Saturday night, that seems to have abated — the laughing, strutting yobs ransacking clothing and electrical stores in full view of the TV cameras appear to be having a whale of a time. Ditto for "boredom."
You only have to look at the sheer savagery and cruelty of the rioters (see, for example, this video of a teenage boy who'd already been beaten up being helped to his feet by a group of youths who then rifle through his rucksack) to know that, contrary to the claims of their liberal apologists, they have no political or social agenda. If they had, surely they would have wanted to talk to journalists covering the riots, rather than attacking them and smashing or stealing their cameras.
Then there's the race issue, which, with one or two exceptions, no one appears to want to talk about. Anyone watching footage or looking at pictures of the rioting can see that a majority of those involved are black, although opportunist thugs of every race and color have been happy to join in. We should be clear, however, that these aren't "race riots" — many of those who have lost their homes and businesses are black. That said, there's the potential for the racial aspect to take a sinister turn — Asian and other ethnic business have been damaged and looted, and there have already been reports of other communities organizing to defend the homes and properties where the police have failed to show up.
The reluctance to even mention the race factor means that, even when the fires have been put out and the streets are quiet again, the underlying problems which have led to these appalling events are unlikely to be addressed. In this respect, the widespread indulgence of criminal behavior by young black men in Britain's inner cities is reminiscent of liberal attitudes towards Muslims in the country.
Islamic extremism has been able to flourish in Britain in part because of the refusal to countenance any criticism of Islam by liberals. In a similar way, the dictates of political correctness and multiculturalism have led liberals to dismiss attempts to address the dysfunction in black families and communities as racist. Now, against the backdrop of the financial crisis and austerity measures, a minority of black youths feel entitled to engage in what is basically a massive looting spree — the Duggan shooting just provided the spark.
The protestors have also been emboldened by the attitudes of politicians and the media towards the police. Another recurring theme in the news coverage has been criticism of the police for not acting faster and with more force to stop the violence and looting. Yet, just a few months ago, they were being criticized for being overly aggressive towards anti-cuts protestors in London, and the officers currently enduring nightly hails of bricks and bottles know that, should they respond with "inappropriate" force, their superiors — many of whom have never actually arrested a criminal, but who have aced all the required courses in "diversity" and "cultural sensitivity" — will happily hang them out to dry.
One BBC anchor suggested that the police were "damned if the do and damned if they don't," which is a fair assessment, but a bit rich given that the BBC is usually at the forefront of those doing the damning — you can rest assured that if a rioter so much as stubs his toe while kicking a fallen policeman in the head, the BBC will be demanding that politicians launch an inquiry.
Essentially, what's happening in London, and on a smaller scale in other cities, is what one commentator called "aggressive late-night shopping." Gangs of thugs are stealing things because no one is stopping them, and because they know that many will excuse their actions on account of their skin color. The combination of liberal hand-wringing, politicians who lack the courage to address the root causes of the trouble, and a demoralized police force portends a difficult few weeks ahead.
All, however, is not lost. While old-school left-wingers like odious former London Mayor Ken Livingstone have been shamelessly exploiting the riots for political gain, others, such as David Lammy, the black MP representing the area where trouble first broke out on Saturday, have conducted themselves with dignity, and condemned the violence unreservedly. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of Londoners have signed up to a Twitter and Facebook campaign to clean up the city and help those whose homes have been damaged or destroyed.
Several commentators have remarked that the scenes of destruction across London last night were reminiscent of the Blitz. Londoners and their leaders now need to show some of the spirit that their predecessors did back then, confront and disown the minority of criminals in their midst, and reclaim their city.
