J. PHILIPPE RUSHTON, ROT IN HELL!

RushtonWell, THIS is comical! At Jared Taylor’s speaking engagement at Towson University, Rushton was mentioned as one of his contemporaries and his go-to person when it comes to “proving” blacks are genetically inferior to whites. It is poetic justice that while Taylor was staring at the black faces proving him wrong and denying he had ever said that himself (which was a lie), Rushton was beginning his transition into his new life – as the latest log on the fires down below!

Two days after white supremacist Jared Taylor stood in front of black college students at Towson University and denied saying that blacks were genetically inferior to whites, the American Renaissance editor was using the publication’s website to eulogize J. Philippe Rushton, one of the biggest promoters of eugenics, a regular speaker at American Renaissance conferences, and a close personal friend of Taylor’s.

Rushton, 68, died on Oct. 2, which was ironically the day Taylor spoke at Towson. While the cause of death has not been revealed, according to Taylor he had been suffering for some time from Addison’s Disease, a hormone deficiency ailment. At the time of his death, he was the Executive Director of the Pioneer Fund, a eugenics promoting organization that the Southern Poverty Law Center lists as a hate group. Before he began to head up the organizaion in 2002, he was a regular recipient of their grants.

A professor at the University of Western Ontario, since 1984, Rushton has maintained the belief that blacks are genetically inferior to whites. He has been criticised as a racist and shunned by much of the scientific community, but his fellow white supremacists have regarded him as an important figure in their circles. He spoke at the spoke at the Preserving Western Civilization conference in Baltimore organized by Jewish white supremacist Michael Hart in 2009, where he extended his eugenics propaganda to include Muslims, saying during his speech that he believed Islam was a genetic problem and that Muslims  have an aggressive personality with relatively closed, simple minds, and were less amenable to reason.

According to Taylor, he spoke at seven out of the last six American Renaissance conferences, and was to speak at the one held earlier this year outside Nashville, Tennessee, but had to decline due to poor health. “(I)t is as a man of science that he will be remembered—a great thinker in the distinguished lineage of Francis Galton, Charles Spearman, and Arthur Jensen,” Taylor wrote, citing others known for promoting eugenics in their work.
