Black mobs and race riots

The news coverage of these incidents is especially disturbing when it becomes apparent that the so-called "journalists" are intentionally omitting any mention of the perpetrators' race or their racial motives.   If the newspapers refer to these criminals as "troubled inner-city youths" or "at-risk teens" or some such euphemism, it doesn't make the public better informed.  There is no point in publishing a newspaper if you're afraid to state the obvious, and the obvious is this:  The teens are not the ones who are most at risk.

Race Riots in America.  In June, thousands of black people headed to the Brighton Beach for the annual Brooklyn-Queens Day.  Five people were shot.  Lots of mayhem and violence as well. ... Why does it freak so many people out to state the obvious:  This was a race riot.  In January, dozens of black people mobbed a Wendy's in Queen's Village, with beatings, property damage and threats.  In May, the same thing happened at Dunkin' Donuts, a large group of black people were "terrorizing" employees and stealing from the store.

Possible Flash Mob Hits Maryland 7-Eleven, Police Say.  A pack of 30 teens helped themselves to items in a Maryland 7-Eleven early Sunday morning [8/14/2011] in what authorities have labeled another instance of a possible flash mob.  The store, which is located in Germantown, Md., was empty at 2 a.m. Sunday morning when a group of teenagers calmly walked in and picked out items as though they were shopping.  Then, just as calmly as they entered the store, police say, they exited without paying for the items.

The news media intentionally suppress politically-incorrect facts.
 Media Stifling Racial Violence Coverage.  Race matters if we want to understand the current wave of racial mob violence.  Flash mobs have a lot of people talking, no thanks to PC journalists who have refused all along to help us understand this emerging social problem.  For those who care about language and the truth, Mary Schmich of the Chicago Tribune has done a great service.  She openly admits that her newspaper refuses to report the race of violent criminals responsible for an outbreak of racial mob violence in Chicago, which mirrors similar violence around the country.

Video Shows Teens Violently Looting Redford Gas Station.  Surveillance video shows a group of teenagers on Friday night [7/22/2011] tearing through a Redford Township gas station.  The group of nearly 20 teens are shown running through the station and stealing several pieces of merchandise, owner Sam Matalka said.  Matalka said he lost hundreds of dollars in merchandise and had to spend hours cleaning up the damages caused by the teens Friday night.

The Editor says...
 The word "black" would be part of a more accurate description of the suspects, but that word is completely absent from this story.

'Flash robs' invade Canada.  Close to midnight on a hot summer's night in July, the Quickie convenience store in Ottawa's west end was virtually empty.  The next minute, 40 or so youth descended en masse.  As they marched in they grabbed everything in sight.  The next minute, like a well-oiled many-tentacled machine, the mob turned around and left with $800 worth of goods.

The Editor says...
 The writer's name is Debra Black; aside from that, there is no mention of "black" in the article, even though an illustration shows that all the perpetrators were black.

Once again, no mention of the word black.
 Teen mayhem hits Philly's streets again.  A mob of unruly teens last night once again wreaked havoc on Center City, assaulting and robbing random pedestrians.  About 9:15 p.m., police began to receive 9-1-1 calls about a group of 20 to 40 teens assaulting people.

No mention of the word black here either.
 Witnesses Describe Mob Attacks Outside Wisconsin State Fair.  Police said the group of young people attacked fair goers who were leaving the fair grounds.  Police said that some victims were attacked while walking.  They said others were pulled out of cars and off of motorcycles before being beaten.

Witnesses describe mobs, some people claim racially-charged attacks.  Witnesses tell [WTMJ] of a mob of young people attacking innocent fair-goers at the end of the opening night of State Fair, with some callers claiming a racially-charged scene.  Milwaukee Police confirmed there were assaults outside the fair.  Witnesses' accounts claim everything from dozens to hundreds of young black people beating white people as they left [the Wisconsin] State Fair Thursday night [8/4/2011].

Racial mob violence rocks the Wisconsin State Fair.  This is far worse than the racially motivated attacks at last year's Iowa State Fair during "beat whitey night."  The dramatic and unprecedented rise in black on white violence across America has yet to be addressed by Mr. Obama or any of the leadership in Washington who are far more concerned with attacking Tea Party members as racists and terrorists than they are in facing any of the real issues which are tearing our country apart.

This article mentions the one detail left out by other writers.
 Mob Rampages Through Wisconsin State Fair.  A concession worker told the newspaper that large groups of African-American youths began running through the midway around 7:00pm, knocking people over, disrupting rides and tearing up signs.  He said police, including officers on horseback, were not able to bring the situation under control.

Union Thugs Disrupt Wisconsin State Fair.  Wisconsin's public sector unions are ramping up hysteria in anticipation of the recall elections on Tuesday.  A reported $15 million, most of it from out of state, has been spent on behalf of the left-wing candidates in the recall races.  Yesterday, Scott Walker opened the Wisconsin State Fair, as is traditionally done by the governor.  But the unions couldn't let their hyperpartisanship rest even for fifteen minutes, and they put on a disgraceful delay.

Alleged flash mob leader held for trial.  The only adult arrested in the alleged thieving flash mob last month waived a preliminary hearing in district court Monday [7/11/2011] and was ordered held for trial.  Kyree Marsh, 19, of the 5200 block of Spruce Street, Philadelphia, was one of 16 persons arrested after allegedly storming into the Sears store, 150 S. 69th St., and grabbing sneakers, socks, watches and other merchandise and hightailing it out of the door on June 23.

Minority Feelings and Violent Facts.  What is the most important thing about mobs of black teens attacking and seriously injuring innocent pedestrians and businesses?  The feelings of teenagers who share the race of the attackers, according to Chicago's local CBS affiliate.  That's right:  Mobs of teenagers have unleashed terror in the streets of Chicago and other cities in "flash mobs," and the best thing CBS in Chicago has to say about that is that black teenagers are worried about racial profiling.

Chicago's Violent Flash Mobs.  Most of these flash mob incidents involved African-American youths who use social websites and cell phones to coordinate their activity.  According to Jack Marshall, "The Chicago media has adopted an odd policy in reporting the incidents:  it has not reported the fact that the mobs were made up of African-American youths."  Flash mobs of African-American youths are not the only reporting about race that is ignored in the Chicago media.  For too long the media has ignored the hypersegregation in the city, as well.

Racial Violence Has Not Made It Into the Conversation about Race.  If mobs of white youths were going about chanting the phrase "white boys," beating mostly on blacks and attacking black-owned businesses, then the nation would pay attention.  Academic, media, political, and legal elites would be calling for symposia, expanded reporting, legislation, and lawsuits.  In fact, a mob of black youths in Philadelphia went about chanting the phrase "black boys," beating mostly on whites, and attacking businesses.

Lessons from a Milwaukee Mob.  On August 4, 2011, the opening night of the Wisconsin State Fair, the worst race riot in Wisconsin history occurred.  As darkness fell over the amusement park area known as the Midway before closing time, hundreds of young blacks swarmed out into the parking lot, seeking out white fairgoers to attack — pulling people off their bikes, out of their cars, to knock them to the ground and beat them:  with fists and whatever blunt instruments they had handy.

American Tinderbox.  For some time now, residents of some US cities have noted occasional incidents of seemingly random, racially motivated violence in which young Black males are involved.  The hot weather and bad economy seem to be combining to generate a small but possibly significant uptick this year.  The national media are doing their best to avoid looking too closely at this disturbing phenomenon, and perhaps for good reason.  What the United States doesn't need is a media firestorm that triggers copycat violence.  Nevertheless some attention should be paid.

It's time to take steps to stop young thugs.  While out of town last week, I suddenly started receiving urgent long-distance messages about young black people in Milwaukee acting crazy.  Again.  Last time it happened, I was on vacation during the Fourth of July weekend when a bunch of misbehaving young black people ransacked a gas station convenience store and attacked residents in a park.

Philadelphia mayor to black youth: 'You have damaged your own race'.  Mayor Michael A. Nutter, telling marauding black youths "you have damaged your own race," imposed a tougher curfew Monday [8/8/2011] in response to the latest "flash mob" — spontaneous groups of teens who attack people at random on the streets of the city's tourist and fashionable shopping districts.

The Taboo on Mentioning Black Mob Violence.  The wave of racist violence committed by black flash mobs is different from any other form of racism today.  The neglected social problem of racial mob violence is unique in its organization, the high numbers of people involved, the intensity of the violence, and the stark racial impact of that violence.  The violence is also unique in that it has been purposefully obscured by the mainstream media, with the editor of the Chicago Tribune, among others, saying that his paper will not report on the race of the attackers.

Boy, 11, among 4 charged in flash-mob attacks.  An 11-year-old boy is among four people who have been arrested for allegedly participating in a mob that wrought chaos on Center City on Friday night.

Witnesses describe mobs, some people claim racially-charged attacks.  Witnesses tell [WTMJ] of a mob of young people attacking innocent fair-goers at the end of the opening night of State Fair, with some callers claiming a racially-charged scene.  Milwaukee Police confirmed there were assaults outside the fair.  Witnesses' accounts claim everything from dozens to hundreds of young black people beating white people as they left State Fair Thursday night [8/4/2011].

Weapons of Mob Destruction.  In Philadelphia, a group of 20-40 youths went on a rampage in Center City August 1st, resulting in 59 people being beaten and briefly hospitalized.  Last Thursday, a mob ran through the Wisconsin State Fair at closing time, beating up people at random.  In London, citizens have been besieged by three straight nights of hellish rioting, even as that rioting has spread to other parts of the nation.  The common themes?  A racial component, studiously ignored wherever possible; technology that makes mob organization far easier than ever before; and the undeniable relationship between welfare state policies and the expansion of underclass mores.

The Mob Tears at the Foundations of Civilization.  The law has failed Marty Marshall and his Akron, Ohio, family.  On the Fourth of July in 2009, he was watching fireworks in his front yard with his wife and children.  A mob of 30 to 50 black teenagers went onto his property and beat up Marshall, his wife, his children and two adult male friends.  "This is our world.  This is a black world," they taunted the injured victims.  Marshall spent five nights hospitalized in critical care.

West Allis Police release timeline detailing incidents at State Fair.  The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department released 911 audio from the opening night of State Fair.  These tapes display the graphic details of the attacks, some of which were racially motivated. ... Most callers tell dispatchers they see a racially motivated melee.

White Mob Terrorizes Black Milwaukeeans.  I'm sorry.  I got that header wrong.  It was a black mob that ransacked convenience stores and hammered a group of white people in Milwaukee this past July 4th weekend. ... The fact that it was a black on white assault would explain why we didn't hear about it via the national news.

All eight suspects in brutal Five Points beating in custody.  All eight suspects are in custody after a brutal attack in Five Points early Monday morning [6/20/2011] which left the teenage victim in critical condition, according to Columbia police.

Solicitor: No evidence that Five Points beating was racially motivated.  Except that the thugs were black and the victim was white.  Maybe he didn't notice.

Blacks must not remain silent about America's new racists.  Last year, four black Skidmore College students yelled racial slurs while they beat up a white man because he was dining with a black man.  Skidmore College's first response was to offer counseling to one of the black students charged with the crime.  In 2009, a black Columbia University professor assaulted a white woman during a heated argument about race relations.  According to interviews and court records obtained and reported by Denver's ABC affiliate, black gangs roamed downtown Denver verbally venting their hatred for white victims before assaulting and robbing them during a four-month crime wave.

Planned Parenthood's 'Lucy Ricardo moment' arrives in a Texas rape case.  Last November, an 11-year-old Latina was gang-raped in the town about 40 miles northeast of Houston.  At least one of the idiots who took part in this atrocity recorded the incident on a cell phone camera.  Videos of the assault surfaced at the girl's school.  One of her classmates alerted the principal, who alerted police.  So far, 18 suspects have been arrested and charged.  According to some news stories, all of them are black; according to others, the "overwhelming majority" are.

Police: Race a factor in State Fair violence.  All the victims were white or Hispanic and the offenders were described as African-American.

These riots were about race. Why ignore the fact?  What colour is Mark Duggan?  Mark Duggan is the man who was shot dead by the police on Thursday in Tottenham.  The Tottenham riots last night were sparked when people protested his death.  This morning, I first heard of the riots on the radio, then on the television.  I read articles on the internet.  But oddly, no one would say what colour Mark Duggan was.  No one would say the unsayable, that the rioters were, I suspect on the whole, black.

Flash Mob Robberies Continue.  In the latest incident, 10 women stormed the Shop Express convenience store along Benning Road in northeast Washington at about 3:15 a.m. Thursday.  They loaded up on food, drinks and snacks at different parts of the store.  Some of the women were carrying bags to hold some of the items.  Then they all rushed out of the store at the same time without paying.

The Editor says...
 Fortunately the accompanying video tells the rest of the story, since the "reporter" didn't: all the suspects were black.

Are the Black Flash Mob Attacks on Whites Obama's Fault?  As America's first black president, fair or unfair, Obama's presidency comes with enormous responsibility in terms of its influence on black youths.  This is why it is so unfortunate that American black youths' ultimate role model is a characterless, race-baiting political hack.  While I am not saying president Obama is responsible for the epidemic of black youth flash-mob attacks on whites around our country, his race-baiting has to be a contributing factor.

'Flash mobs' pose challenge to police tactics.  The suspects in these crimes often connected via cellphones and share information on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook, police say.  How best to combat the technology-connected crimes — and how far police agencies should reach into private online and mobile phone access — are at the core of a growing debate among police officials, city leaders and civil rights activists.  Everyone agrees:  It's uncharted territory for law enforcement.

Again, the most appropriate adjective was omitted.
 17 charged in Germantown flash mob theft.  Montgomery County police say 17 people have been charged in a flash mob theft of a Germantown convenience store.  A group of 25 young people stormed the 7-Eleven at 13001 Wisteria Drive shortly before 2 a.m. on Aug. 13.  In just about a minute, they stole snacks, drinks and other items from the store, then left.

The Racial Violence that Dare Not Speak Its Name.  Recent flash mob violence has alerted Americans to a troubling wave of sadistic racial mayhem.  A notable outbreak occurred in Denver in 2009, setting a pattern of delay, denial, and silence.  Now that same scourge has returned to Denver, among many other places.  In 2009, a four month wave of mayhem broke out in Denver.  There were at least 26 violent robberies committed by two black gangs.  The victims were — without exception — whites and Hispanics.

Motive Unclear In Attack By Group Of Teens On 16th Street Mall.  Police are asking for the public's help tracking down a large group of violent teenagers.  They say 10 to 15 young people — described as black or Hispanic and both male and female — attacked four white men on the 16th Street Mall at about 10:45 p.m. on Sunday [9/11/2011].

WCBS-TV seems very sympathetic with this gang of teenage armed robbers.
 Brazen Teenage Gang Robbing Straphangers During Rush Hour.  Police are searching for teenage thugs targeting subway riders.  There have been at least three armed attacks recently.  CBS 2's Dave Carlin has seen pictures of the suspects and knows what they're after.  A team of baby-faced bandits, young enough to still be in high school, is making life quite stressful in Gotham's underworld.

Shoplifting: A sense of entitlement.  Shoplifting is up?  Oh there is a surprise.  Who would have thought that in the Era of The Won, people would feel such a sense of entitlement — such a disdain for capitalism — that shoplifting would be socially acceptable again.  Shame is gone.  So is respect for the property of others.  So are barriers on acceptable behavior in public.

White Middle-Schooler Beaten Unconscious by Group of Black Students.  The story is shocking enough, even without bringing race into it:  on the way to school in Ocala, FA, a thirteen-year-old girl was beaten unconscious and reportedly went into a seizure after being attacked on the school bus by a group of fellow students.  The girl reportedly was riding the bus for the first time. ... Aside from the brutality, there was another troubling fact about this crime — a fact that predictably did not make it into the news:  the attackers were black, and the victim was white.

Associated Press coverage of the same story, with no mention of the word "black":
 7 teens charged with beating classmate unconscious.  Seven central Florida teenagers were arrested after authorities said they punched and kicked a 13-year-old until she was unconscious while on a school bus.

Riot breaks out at Dekaney High School.  A Dakaney High School student used a cell phone to capture a brawl that broke out in the cafeteria on Friday [1/27/2012].  Spring ISD officials said the fight started between four students and no one was seriously hurt.  But students said — and the video will attest — that it was more like a riot, and there were a lot more than four students involved.

Massive brawl at notorious high school.  Police were called to a troubled Texas high school after another major brawl erupted in the cafeteria — and parents say they have had enough.  Cell phone video provided an inside look at Friday's melee, showing students at Andy Dekaney High School, throwing wild punches and crowding the cafeteria.

Brazen smash-and-grab jewelry store mall robberies continue.  Gordon's Jewelers at First Colony Mall in Sugar Land suffered the most recent attack, as KTRK Ch. 13 first reported.  A surveillance video from Feb. 22 shows four masked men storming the store, smashing display cases, stealing merchandise and running from the scene in less than a minute.

Media Conceal True Nature of "Flash Mob" Racial Violence.  Relying on documents made available exclusively through a Freedom of Information Act request, we can add another face to the growing picture of racial "flash mob" violence in America.  It is a face that the media have concealed from public view.  This writer was forced to use the local Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to ascertain the facts about the racial identity of one of the victims of these attacks.  The media concealed the identity of the white victim apparently because of misguided racial sensitivity.

Flynn calls looting, beatings in Riverwest barbaric.  Shaina Perry remembers the punch to her face, blood streaming from a cut over her eye, her backpack with her asthma inhaler, debit card and cellphone stolen, and then the laughter.  "They just said 'Oh, white girl bleeds a lot,'" said Perry, 22, who was attacked at Kilbourn Reservoir Park over the Fourth of July weekend.

Of course there is no mention of the word black in this article.
 Carter Strange Speaks About Five Points Assault.  On June 20th, Strange was brutally attacked by a group of eight teenagers as he was walking home in Columbia's Five Points. ... Eight suspects were arrested in connection with his attack, and seven of the suspects were juveniles.

Police issue arrest warrant for seventh suspect in beating of Bayonne man.  [Dawid] Strucinski was left in a coma after he was jumped by about nine people near the Quick Chek at Broadway and 12th Street in Bayonne at around 3 a.m. July 3.  Today [7/12/2011], police arrested a sixth suspect — a 15-year-old boy — and charged him with the riot and endangering injured victim today after a parent brought him to headquarters, police said.

Police: Trayvon protesters ransack store.  North Miami Beach police said surveillance video shows dozens of high school students demonstrating in the Trayvon Martin case Friday [3/23/2012] ransacking a Walgreens store.  The incident occurred during a walkout from North Miami Beach Senior High School in support of Martin, 17, who was fatally shot in Sanford.

NMB Students Turn Trayvon March Into Criminal Mischief Investigation.  Thousands of students in South Florida have taken part in school walkouts as a way to protest the lack of an arrest in the Trayvon Martin killing at the hands of a volunteer neighborhood watch campaign.  All of them remained peaceful except for one and North Miami Beach police released surveillance video Tuesday [3/27/2012] of that incident which took place at a Walgreens located at 1501 NE 163rd Street.

6 charged in beating of NC man in Seneca.  The report said that a woman told police that there were several black men attacking the 32-year-old white man, whose identity was redacted.  "Upon exiting the restaurant he was jumped by a mob of individuals, and severely beaten about the head and torso," said John Covington, the Seneca police chief.  "The report was that racial slurs were being used toward the victim."

Six Men Who Could Be Obama's Sons Arrested For Pummeling White Man.  This beating occurred March 17 and we're just hearing about it now?  Where's the national media to gin up the outrage?

The Media Downplay Murder When It's Black-on-White and Black-on-Black.  If violent black-white crime generates headlines, where were the media after the sickening racially motivated assault that occurred in Long Beach, Calif., on Halloween night, 2006?  Three young white women were brutally kicked, punched and beaten by a mostly black mob of 30 to 40 teens and adults.  According to witnesses, during the rampage the mob yelled:  "We hate white people.  F--- whites!"  Yet only two local papers reported the story, and one — the Los Angeles Times — published its article a full week after the attack!

Crowd Beats, Strips & Robs Tourist On St. Patrick's Day; Incident Caught On Camera.  Caught on camera — a tourist being beaten in downtown Baltimore, and instead of helping him, a crowd laughs and steals his belongings.

Baltimore is unsafe for white tourists.  Baltimore is not a safe city for white tourists.  There, I've said it.  Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake won't be happy with that assessment.  Nor, probably, will Baltimore City Council President Bernard Young and other elected officials.  But I'm not the one they have to sell on how safe Baltimore is for white tourists.  That poor white guy in the now-notorious video that's gone viral is.  His name isn't known.  Police have only identified him as a tourist from Arlington.

A hate crime in Baltimore.  Straight white guys don't make good crime victims.  Especially if the crime is a so-called "hate crime."  Last month, shortly after St. Patrick's Day, a white tourist from Arlington was knocked out cold, beaten some more, kicked, robbed of money, a cellphone, his car key and a watch, and then stripped nearly naked on a Baltimore street. [...] Fact one:  There was only one white guy standing in front of the Clarence Mitchell Jr. Courthouse that night.  Fact two:  Everybody else was black.  Fact three:  The only person being beaten, robbed and stripped was the white guy.

'The level of poverty, the disillusionment hasn't changed'.  Twenty years ago, at the intersection of Florence and Normandie in south Los Angeles, a mostly black mob, enraged at the acquittal of four Los Angeles policemen in the beating of black motorist Rodney King, dragged white truck driver Reginald Denny from his cab and beat him unconscious while news helicopters hovered overhead.  The gory images helped incite six days of fires and looting throughout the city that led to 53 deaths and an estimated $1 billion in property damage.

Twitter Buzzes With Talk of Zimmerman Riots.  Since Friday [4/20/2012], there has been an explosion of tweets surrounding the possibility of rioting if Zimmerman is acquitted — or even because he was released on bail.

L.A. Riots Picture Special.  This Sunday marks the 20th anniversary of the night when chaos broke out in Los Angeles.  Angered by the acquittal of three white and one Hispanic police officers who had been filmed beating black motorist Rodney King rioting erupted across the city.  When the flames had died down six days later 55 people had died, 2,300 had been injured and more than 1,500 buildings were left damaged or destroyed.

Thin Veneer of Civilization.  [Scroll down]  I went back to the hotel on the evening of April 29 to the news of the near-beating death of trucker Reginald Denny in the aftermath the acquittal of the four Los Angeles Police Department officers charged with using excessive force during their arrest of Rodney King after a drunken King led them on a high speed chase and then resisted once the police pulled him over.

What We Should Have Learned.  Could it happen again?  That is the taboo question on the 20th anniversary of Los Angeles's murderous Rodney King riots, just as another racially charged prosecution — this time in Florida — captures headlines across the nation.  Sadly, the answer is yes.

Norfolk, Virginia: Violent Black Flash Mob Assault White Journos — Their Newspaper Buries News For Weeks.  The feral wilding mob was 100 strong, at least 30 participated in the attack.

'Justice for Trayvon':
 15 Whites Beaten By Gangs of Black Thugs... So Far.  At least 15 whites have been beaten not just with fists, but with potentially deadly weapons including hammers and lengths of chain.  Many of the victims have been hospitalized, some may never fully recover, and one lingers on the verge of death.  David Forster and Marjon Rostami are just the latest victims of brutal beatings tied to the Trayvon Martin shooting, and some Virginians are outraged that the newspaper did not report the attack for "politically correct reasons."  The attack was revealed not as news, but in an opinion piece.

Attack on Pilot reporters was a crime — but not the only one.  Pilot reporters Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami were pummeled by a pack of punks last month in Norfolk.  It was two weeks before any mention of that vicious attack appeared in the paper.  As a result, The Virginian-Pilot is now taking a beating.  The reporters didn't deserve this act of aggression.  But what about The Pilot?

A problem with the truth?  As WND reported Tuesday [5/1/2012], dozens of black teenagers attacked two white reporters for the local Norfolk, Va., newspaper, the Virginia-Pilot.  Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami were stopped at a traffic light two weeks ago as a crowd of at least 100 black youths congregated nearby.  Someone threw a rock at the window of the car and Forster got out to confront the perpetrator.  That's when the beating started.  When Rostami tried to pull Forster back into the vehicle, the crowd of dozens began pulling her hair, punching her head and scratching her eyes.  Both were out of work for a week due to their injuries.  Amazingly, though the victims were staffers for the only newspaper in town, the story was not reported.

Arrest Made In Viral Video St. Pat's Day Mob Assault Of Tourist.  The 20-year-old man charged in connection with the recent assault and robbery in downtown Baltimore of a visitor who was stripped of his clothes was ordered held on $1 million bond Saturday morning [4/28/2012], court records show.  Aaron Jacob Parsons of Rosedale turned himself in Friday night after having been linked to the videotaped incident for more than a week, as viewers tracked social media activity that appeared to show his involvement.

Mob of between 30-100 black teens brutally beat white male and female in Virginia.  The pink slime media and race hustlers have more blood on their hands as yet another racially motivated mob beating has occurred.  As usual, with the exception of a few local reports, the pink slime media is silent on this story.  Even in the following video from a local ABC station in Norfolk, the reporter mentions:  "a mob of teens" forgoing the mention of the race of the attackers.  Welcome to Obamaville.

White couple's terror as 30-strong mob of black youths armed with rocks attacks.  A 16-year-old male has been arrested after a gang of black youths armed with rocks violently beat a white couple in an unprovoked attack.  Reporters Marjon Rostami and Dave Forster were waiting at a red light at the intersection of Brambleton Avenue and Church Street in Norfolk, Virginia, on April 14 when they were set upon by the 30-strong mob.  But the couple's ordeal was not reported by their employer, the Virginian-Pilot, for two weeks, sparking outrage among some readers who claim the newspaper buried the story for political reasons.

O'Reilly Producer Confronts Editor Of Virginia Paper About Covering Up 'Racially Motivated' Assault.  On his show Monday [5/7/2012], Bill O'Reilly started off by following up on the assault case in Norfolk, Virginia — in which two Virginian-Pilot reporters, Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami, were attacked by a group of black men.  The story went unreported in the paper for two weeks, and O'Reilly has been following the case since last week.  In this update, we heard from the paper's editor himself.

Bill O'Reilly: 'Inconceivable That Had a White Mob Set Upon Two Black Americans Media Would Sit it Out'.  "It is inconceivable that had a white mob set upon two black Americans the media would sit it out."  So said Fox News's Bill O'Reilly Monday about the media's almost total silence about a white couple that was attacked by a crowd of young African-Americans three weeks ago in Norfolk, Virginia.

Group of 10 or 15 'thugs' rob and beat 5 people following Prudential Center concert, cops say.  A roving band of teenagers assaulted five people as they left a sold-out concert at Newark's Prudential Center Saturday night [5/5/2012], leaving one man unconscious and another with a fractured eye socket during a two-minute crime spree, according to police officials and incident reports.  The attacks happened as nearly 20,000 guests departed from a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and marked only the second major reported crime at the arena since it opened in 2007, officials said.

Newark police: Violence may have been chief motivation in brutal Prudential Center assaults.  The mob of teens who attacked and robbed five people who eaving a sold-out Prudential Center concert Saturday night were "laughing" during the brutal assaults, and may have set out to injure people rather than rob them, Newark police officials said this morning.

Mobile police chief: No more arrests expected in Matthew Owens beating.  Barring new information, police do not expect to make any more arrests the widely publicized beating of a man in the city's Pleasant Valley community, Police Chief Micheal Williams said today [5/9/2012].  The beating, which left Matthew Owens in the hospital in critical condition, caused a sensation that reverberated across the nation because the victim is white and the large group of men, women and children who confronted him are black.

A Censored Race War?  When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks — beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work — that might seem to have been news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper.  But it wasn't.  "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News Channel was the first major television program to report this incident.  Yet this story is not just a Norfolk story, either in what happened or in how the media and the authorities have tried to sweep it under the rug.


Black violence

Racial Violence and the Conspicuous Silence of the Media.  By now, almost everyone has seen one of the semi-amusing videos of black teen mobs rampaging through a store.  Maybe we've even seen the non-amusing pictures of the victims, or heard their stories.  Most Americans have heard of recent violent "flash mobs," which are the bands of black teens that attack mostly white victims and white businesses, as even the New York Times once noted.  But the flash mobs, which are more accurately called "race riots" or "racial mob violence," are not the only interesting topic to cover in our national conversation about race.  There is also the "knockout game," which is stunning in its brutal simplicity and stark racial significance.

Stone cold silence.  The Daley dynasty in Chicago may be giving way to the Obama-Emanuel political machine, but one thing remains constant across the city:  youth violence and a collective refusal to acknowledge its root cause.  A year after the beating death of a Chicago teen by his fellow students, Chicago remains in denial about the driving factor behind such mayhem:  the disappearance of the black two-parent family.

Liberal Racism.  The Berkeley/Oakland area was on high alert last week... but not because of a natural disaster, like an earthquake.  A jury was deciding the fate of a white police officer charged with killing a black male at a BART station. ... This is not the first time that riots have occurred relative to this incident.  Mobs have already broken windows, looted stores, beat people up, and destroyed cars.  The attitude then, as well as now, is that "we" have a right to riot.  Why?  Why do certain groups have a right to riot?  And why do others make excuses when livelihoods are ruined, millions of dollars are wasted, and innocents are hurt?  My opinion?  Liberal racism.

Excusing the Oakland Rioters.  Looting is not an inevitable concomitant of the exercise of speech rights.

Burned, Baby, Burned:  Watts and the Tragedy of Black America.  The author argues that the riots in Watts launched a new — and misguided — tactic of menacing protest and rebellion for its own sake in the struggle for civil rights.

More Overlooked History:  Black Violence.  [The Black Panthers] Minister of Information Eldridge Cleaver wrote about his history of raping women, claiming that rape was "an insurrectionary act."  Because his victims were white, he explained, rape was not only a way to get revenge but also to defile and trample upon "the white man's law and his values."

New Video Shows Philly Teen Attack.  A new video surfaces of another unprovoked attack in Philadelphia, right outside City Hall, by a group of teen girls on a worker.  A woman attacked in broad daylight in May is now coming forward.  And Fox 29 has obtained chilling video of the attack on her by a group of teenage girls.  The exclusive video shows her walking outside City Hall, before dark at 8 p.m. on a Thursday, when out of nowhere, a group of girls comes up behind her, slams her on the ground, and starts hitting her repeatedly.

Chaos erupts in courtroom during sentencing of 20-year-old carjacker.  Chaos engulfed a Jersey City courtroom this morning [5/4/2012] when a woman convicted of a brutal carjacking erupted in screams upon hearing the lengthy sentence imposed.  The moment Superior Court Judge Patrick Arre said "15 years," Latoya Campbell, 20, became hysterical, as did her family members sitting in the courtroom.


Black violence in schools

NYC's most dangerous schools.  Students at the Brooklyn Academy of Global Finance in Bedford-Stuyvesant face routine bullying, gang activity and a generally unsafe campus, according to the city's 2011 School Survey.  "The kids run wild, and the teachers are scared," said an administrator at the high school who asked to remain anonymous.  "It's like there are no rules here at all," she added.

High School Basketball Player Attacks Ref.  A video of what not to do when you don't like a ref's call has been circulating the Internet.  In a game between Florida high school teams Arcadia DeSoto and Port Charlotte, DeSoto's Mason Holland shoved a Port Charlotte player, and then, after a technical foul was called on him, went ballistic and threw the referee to the floor.

Education Cutbacks and Urban Violence.  Bloated public education budgets in our large cities may be immune from serious cuts for an unpalatable reason:  the threat of urban violence. ... Difficult budgetary choices entail an element that dare not speak its name:  cutbacks may risk 1960s style riots, and these costs may far exceed temporary savings.  To be blunt, cities often solved riot problems via bloated education-related employment, and bereft of these jobs, cities may return to "long hot summers".

Black Education:  According to the National Center for Education Statistics, nationally during 2007-2008, more than 145,000 teachers were physically attacked.  Six percent of big-city schools report verbal abuse of teachers and 18 percent report non-verbal disrespect for teachers.  An earlier NCES study found that 18 percent of the nation's schools accounted for 75 percent of the reported incidents of violence, and 6.6 percent accounted for 50 percent.  So far as serious violence, murder and rapes, 1.9 percent of schools reported 50 percent of the incidents.  The preponderance of school violence occurs in big-city schools attended by black students.

The soft bigotry of low expectations, blackboard jungle edition.  The Obama administration's Department of Education has announced that it will crack down on "civil-rights infractions" in public schools, including alleged disparities in the disciplining of white and black students.  The notion behind this initiative is that black students are disproportionately subjected to discipline they don't deserve.  That doesn't seem to be the case in the Philadelphia public school system, however.  There, as Abigail Thernstrom and Tim Fay report, it appears that African American students frequently harass and attack Asian students without consequence.

Metro Teachers Learn Gang Communication.  With a growing gang problem in some Metro [Nashville] Schools, the district is trying be proactive by teaching teachers how gang members communicate, breaking down everything from signs, the colors and clothes, code words used in class and the rappers students idolize.

Overhauling D.C. School Overcome by Violence.  D.C. Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee has dispatched a team of administrators and extra security to an Anacostia middle school where three teachers have been assaulted, a 14-year-old was charged with carrying a shotgun and students have run the hallways discharging fire extinguishers. ... "Kids sitting on desks, coming into classrooms and knocking over books, cussing, running through the halls," said Timothy Favors, who has visited Hart on multiple occasions because his son, a sixth-grader, is getting poor grades after doing well at Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School.  "This isn't a school I would recommend for anyone.  You could have a perfectly normal child, and he would get flipped here like a pancake."

Report:  Philadelphia schools unsafe, unjust.  Philadelphia public schools are unsafe places where students who commit violent crimes are rarely punished and rehabilitated and with a disciplinary system that is "dysfunctional and unjust," according to a report by the district's safe-schools advocate.  In a blistering 72-page document obtained by The Inquirer, Jack Stollsteimer describes a district where students who assault teachers or come to school with guns are not removed from classrooms, a violation of federal and state law.

Teacher still out after beating by student.  Vanesta Marshall, a home economics teacher at Worthing who is 5 feet 4 inches tall, said she remembers a ninth-grade male student punching her in the face two or three times before she blacked out Friday [5/11/2007]. ... She said school officials didn't inform her about the student's discipline history.  "We're just regular-ed teachers," she said.  "We don't know how to handle violent behavior."

Is Disagreement with Obama Racism?  When one says that race is no longer the problem it once was, it is not the same as saying that there are not major problems that confront a large segment of the black population.  Grossly fraudulent education is a major problem but it has nothing to do with racial discrimination as evidenced by the fact that the worse education received is in the very cities where blacks dominate the political structure.  Crime is a major problem but it has nothing to do with racial discrimination, particularly in light of the fact that blacks commit most of the violent crime in America and well over 90 percent of their victims are black.

Obama's Criminal Silence.  Today, I spoke briefly with a liberal member of California's education establishment (forgive the obvious tautology), who told me that his Berkeley home had recently been broken into while he was in Washington, D.C.  It's been a wake-up call, he said.  We were too lax.  We'll be putting in a security-alarm system.  And then came the clincher:  "This is a very diverse neighborhood."  Now what would possibly be the relevance of that euphemism to the likelihood of getting burgled, I wonder?

Racism is not the biggest problem that black Americans face any more.  Of course, racism does still exist and will always exist in one form or another.  That being said, we've come a long way in this country from the time when black Americans couldn't use the same water fountain as white people, had to sit at the back of the bus, and weren't allowed to go to the same schools as whites. … On the other hand, the illegitimacy rate in the black community is roughly 70% and black on black crime is more dangerous to black Americans than the KKK ever was.

A Tale of Two Cities:  The welfare state detaches rewards from behavior. … People are encouraged not to better themselves, but to think in terms of rights and entitlements. … The results are catastrophic.  Robberies and street crime – not to mention the unheard of before shootings in broad daylight – have soared to an unprecedented level.  Black gangsters are modeling themselves on Jamaican Yardies battling other gangs for control of the lucrative cocaine trade.  No one has the guts to mention that the majority of violent criminals using guns and knives are black.

Homicide trends in the U.S.:  Charts provided by the Bureau of Justice Statistics show that blacks were seven times more likely than whites to commit homicide in 2002.

Mapping the Unmentionable:  Race And Crime.  The government makes much detailed information on crime rates by race available.  But almost nobody ever tries to learn anything from it.

Milwaukee's black leaders say the enemy is within.  Black leaders in Milwaukee say their community is being torn apart from the inside.  Civil rights leaders like 57-year-old Prentice McKinney, who fought to free Milwaukee's blacks from the ghetto, say gangs, drugs and violence have left those who still live in the nation's urban cores in fear of the next generation.

The Silence of the Liberals:  The reason for the silence stares us in the face.  The gangsters themselves are largely black, and Minneapolis's political culture is absorbed in a crusade against the reality that blacks are arrested and incarcerated in numbers that substantially exceed their proportion in the general population.

Why are so many blacks in prison?  Between 1976 and 2005, blacks have been killing other people at a rate 6 to 9 times higher, every year, than the comparable homicide rates for whites.  Furthermore, these statistics are skewed in favor of blacks, because the "white" category includes also Hispanics who identify themselves as whites but whose crime rates are far higher than those of non-Hispanic whites.

Three Former JFS Workers Accused Of Food Stamp Fraud.  Former Hamilton County Jobs and Family Services workers are accused of obtaining more than $100,000 in food stamps and other benefits for friends and relatives.  Deters said Savoy Walker, Jacqueline Ward and Tamikia Mosley obtained cash, food stamps and Medicaid benefits totaling about $130,000 for 12 people.  Those 12 people, as yet unnamed, are facing charges of receiving stolen property for accepting the benefits.

Police use pepper spray to break up fight among Nike shoppers.  The release of Nike's retro Air Jordans caused a frenzy at stores across the nation early Friday [12/23/2011], with hundreds of people lining up for a chance to buy the classic basketball shoes and rowdy crowds breaking down doors and starting fights in at least two cities.

Race for New Air Jordan Sneakers Turns Ugly.  The quest for some limited edition sneakers took an ugly turn early Friday morning outside the Mall at Stonecrest in Lithonia.  DeKalb police say several people were arrested , including one woman who left two young children in her car, after the new Nike Air Jordan 11 Concords went on sale.

Area mall shoppers squabble over Air Jordan shoes.  Michael Jordan reigned supreme once more Friday in the world of sneaker craziness, as scuffles broke out and police were called to three malls in the Charlotte area when hundreds of sometimes-unruly shoppers showed up for a wildly popular Air Jordan shoe.  Similar scenes were reported across the country as shoppers were arrested near Atlanta, a shot was fired in a mall near San Francisco, a man was stabbed in New Jersey, and police in the Seattle area used pepper spray on a crowd outside a shoe store.

The blacks blame everybody but themselves for their lawless behavior.
 Local Activists Call for Air Jordan Changes.  Local activists and ministers are taking on one of the world's top sports brands.  They're calling on Nike and Michael Jordan to change the way they sell the highly sought after Air Jordan sneakers.  This comes after the frenzy over the limited release last week turned violent in some cities.  Now, community leaders say the people at the top should take some responsibility.

Police sources say teen gang targeting the elderly responsible for dozens of home invasions.  7 Action News has learned that two Detroit teenagers have been charged with robbing the 80-year-old mother of NAACP President, Reverend Wendell Anthony.  They were arrested after a high speed chase and shootout with Detroit Police.  The teens are suspected members of a gang that has been targeting the elderly.

There is a Martin Luther King Boulevard in every big city, and they're all dangerous places.
 Quote of the day.  Instead of complaining about people avoiding a ghetto, how about fixing up the ghetto?  There is no sane reason for ghettos to exist.  School integration became the law of the land 57 years ago.  The end of job discrimination against blacks became the law 46 years ago.  Affirmative action came into being 40 years ago.  Trillions have been spent on programs designed to help the poor get out of poverty, or at least ease the pain.  And yet no one in their right mind would drive down any Martin Luther King Boulevard after dark?

Police: Chicago had no shootings in 24-hour period, first time in nearly a year.  Chicago saw something this week it hasn't seen in nearly a year:  An entire 24-hour period where there was not a single shooting or murder.  Police say the period of quiet happened Wednesday [1/18/2012].

 Wow, what a great achievment -- a whole day without a murder.  That's like congratulating a Hollywood couple for being married more than a year.  Or being married at all.

No justice, no agitation.  Murder is largely an intraracial crime.  Almost all murders of blacks are committed by other blacks.  Blacks as a group commit murder at a rate astronomically higher than other groups.  The rate of murder committed by blacks exceeds that committed by whites by approximately seven times. ... If race hustlers like Al Sharpton really had the interests of the black community at heart, they would devote themselves to doing everything in their power to have violent black criminals separated from the community of law-abiding black citizens.  The criminals are serial tormentors of law-abiding members of the black community.

The Old Race Card.  The Cambridge police did not act stupidly.  And if police do stereotype, it may be because 12% of the population commits almost half the violent crime in the nation.  In the case of rare black/white and white/black murdering (94% of murdered African-Americans were killed by other African-Americans), a minority is more likely to commit murder (and rape) against a majority than the majority is against the minority.

How Many Crimes Did the New Black Panthers Commit in Florida?  Let's start with solicitation to kidnap.  In announcing a reward for the seizure of [George] Zimmerman, the New Black Panthers may have violated Florida Code 787.01.  It makes it a felony to "by threat, confining or abducting, or imprisoning another person against his ... will without lawful authority with intent to ... terrorize."  Merely soliciting someone else to do this is also a felony in Florida under Florida Code 777.04.

New Black Panthers Activity Against Zimmerman May Be Criminal.  Florida law makes it a felony to unlawfully seize somebody as a mob, or "at the behest of a mob."  Again, solicitation to commit this crime is also a crime.  It's a felony, too, to interfere with the administration of government with use of force — and yes, again, solicitation is a crime.

New Black Panther Party seeks citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman.  Death threats and a $10,000 bounty offered for a citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman have raised concerns about the threat of "vigilante justice" in the racially charged case.  A group identifying itself as the New Black Panther Party is offering $10,000 to anyone who makes a citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin slaying.

Birmingham News Drops the Ball on Black-on-white Crime.  Yesterday I reported on the stabbing of white truck driver Nick Stokes by members of a black motorcycle gang called the Outcasts of Alabama.  It's not merely a scary story but also an unusual one, mostly because of the behavior of law enforcement.  The Adamsville, AL police department not only failed to question or detain any of the gangsters, but, outrageously, also told Stokes that they "don't mess" with the Outcasts.  What isn't at all unusual about the story is the mainstream media's reluctance to cover a case of black-on-white crime.  In particular, I cited the Birmingham News (BN), whose crime-beat reporter, Carol Robinson, had brusquely dismissed the incident as not newsworthy.

 Spitting in Whitey's Food.  Jackson talks about himself at these meetings.  Once he told of his days as a waiter at the Jack Tar Hotel in his home town of Greenville, S.C.  Just before leaving the kitchen he would spit into the food of white patrons he hated and then smilingly serve it to them.  He did this, he said, "because it gave me psychological gratification."  It was something everybody in the audience understood.

Ugly Truths About Prejudice.  [Scroll down]  The source of this nasty prejudice about blacks and crime is the fact that black crime rates are extremely high.  Most of it is directed against other blacks, but that doesn't change the perception by Americans (black, white, or purple).  Black murder rates are roughly 4.5x what you would expect for their proportion of the population, with similarly disproportionate rates for robbery (4x), aggravated assault (3x), burglary (3x), forgery and counterfeiting (3x), fraud (3x), and rape (3x).  You don't have to read the FBI Uniform Crime Reports to know this, either.  Essentially everyone (white or black) who has ever lived in an urban area in the U.S. has first-hand experience of this.  There is only one way to fix this problem of racial prejudice — and that is to reduce black crime rates to a level commensurate with the black population.  The glorification of criminality in urban black culture is shocking and destructive.  It encourages more of the same, and teaches young black men that this is an acceptable cultural form.



Black crime in Detroit

Liberal Views, Black Victims.  [Philadelphia and] other cities such as Baltimore, Detroit and Washington, D.C., with large black populations, experience the nation's highest rates of murder and violent crime.  This high murder rate is, and has been, predominantly a black problem.  According to Bureau of Justice statistics, between 1976 and 2005, blacks, while 13 percent of the population, committed over 52 percent of the nation's homicides and were 46 percent of the homicide victims.  Ninety-four percent of black homicide victims had a black person as their murderer.

Disputed study:  Detroit is the most dangerous city in the nation.  In another blow to the Motor City's tarnished image, Detroit pushed past St. Louis to become the nation's most dangerous city, according to a private research group's controversial analysis, released Sunday, of annual FBI crime statistics.

Leaving Detroit.  Those who do not possess basic human values do not value any life.  It too often seems that Detroit has more of such beings per capita than anywhere else in the country.

Baltimore's homicide rate moves to No. 1 among big cities.  Baltimore had its lowest homicide total in two decades last year, but data released this week show the city's homicide rate was No. 1 among the nation's largest cities in 2008.  Despite recording its lowest number of killings in 20 years in 2008 — 234, down from 282 in 2007 — there were 37 homicides per 100,000 city residents last year, ahead of Detroit at 34 per 100,000 and Washington, D.C., at about 31.  No other city with a population of more than 500,000 came close...

Report: Nearly Half Of Detroiters Can't Read.  According to a new report, 47 percent of Detroiters are "functionally illiterate."  The alarming new statistics were released by the Detroit Regional Workforce Fund on Wednesday [5/4/2011].


Black violent crime

500 witnesses and no one is talking.  About 500 spectators were packed around the Kingsessing Recreation Center's outdoor basketball court Monday night, cheering on an adult league playoff game.  Then, at halftime, a thug in a red and black baseball hat loped across the court and fired a .40-caliber handgun 11 times into the bleachers, wounding six people.  As of Tuesday afternoon [8/23/2011], none of those 500 witnesses were saying much to police.

I was beaten, taunted for being white, Bronx man says after subway attack.  A Bronx man was viciously assaulted and robbed on a subway train Sunday by four men who he says taunted him for being white.  Police confirmed they are investigating the assault and robbery of Jason Fordell, 29, but have not labeled it a hate crime.

Authorities Ignoring another Black-on-white 'Hate Crime'.  Like the three monkeys who see, hear and speak no evil, our authorities seem intent on ignoring the true nature of yet another black-on-white racial attack.  In the New York City subway this past Sunday, 29-year-old Jason Fordell was attacked by a group of black men who taunted him for being white.  Yet NYC police "are unsure" if the incident is a bias crime.  The problem started when Fordell transferred to a crowded 4 train at 42nd street, where he encountered four black men who began harassing him.

Black Leaders Ignore Black-on-Black Crime.  Derrion [Albert] had walked into the middle of a fight between two rival black gangs.  He attempted to help one of the victims in the melee and was killed for his trouble.  This took place in Barack Obama's Chicago.  All his work for "social justice" did a great deal for Obama, but it did nothing for Derrion Albert.

Democrats Jumping the Race-Card Shark..  A rather inconvenient fact, however, is that the only reported act of racial violence so far happened on Tuesday [9/15/2009] on a public school bus in St. Louis and the offenders were black, the victim white.  An apparently unprovoked attack on a high school student took place over — get this — a seat on the bus..  The irony is downright nerve-wrenching.  A black student beat the white student to the cheers of his black classmates and the bus driver supposedly did nothing to intervene.  KKK in reverse?  That's a lot more violence than Rosa Parks got over her seat on the bus.  In fact, Rosa Parks wasn't on the receiving end of anything more than arrogant stares.

Black and other nonwhite violence against whites:  a grim collection.  In recent weeks, I have posted a great many articles on the ongoing outbreaks of black on white violence in this country and elsewhere — and not just "ordinary" criminal violence, but violence of a specifically savage and threatening character.

A betrayal of the civil rights struggle.  During the 2003-04 school year, only 52 of the nation's 92,000 public schools were labeled "persistently dangerous," a designation under the No Child Left Behind Act entitling students to move to an alternate "safe" school.  Philadelphia had 14 schools labeled as "persistently dangerous" and Baltimore had six. … School violence, including assaults on teachers and staff, is not restricted to inner city schools but occurs also in suburban and rural schools.  However, the bulk of the violence is at schools with large black populations.

FBI Alarmed At Murder Rate Among Black Men.  Both violent and property crimes in the United States declined in 2007 from the previous year, the FBI reported Monday [6/9/2008].  But one expert warned the figures could mask a growing murder problem among young black men. ... "We shouldn't be fooled into thinking our problems are over," said [James Alan] Fox, a criminal justice professor at Northeastern University.  Fox said that from 2002 to 2006, the rate of murder committed by black male teens rose 52 percent.

A Black Conservative Lament:  [A cable TV news channel] ran a long segment with a black comedian/actor, talking about how he tells his son each and every day about how to talk to the police and how black men must be wary of cops. … The truth is that his son has more to fear from other young black men than he does from the police.  I then quoted a homicide statistic:  94 percent of black homicide victims are killed by other black people.  It was dismissed by the moderator so we could focus instead on how racist the cops are.  Unbelievable.

Murders of Black Teens Are Up 39% Since 2000-01.  [Scroll down]  An overwhelming proportion of the killings involve black-on-black crime.  The reasons for high rates of violence in African-American communities have been the subject of debate among criminologists.  Some attribute it to the migration of prison culture, with large numbers of incarcerated young men returning to their communities.

Murders Jump in Obama's Back Yard as Chicago Cuts Police Hires.  The recession is stinging in President-elect Barack Obama's hometown, where the Chicago Police Department is slowing hiring even as murders increase.  Murders in Chicago rose 16 percent in the first 10 months of the year.  The city's homicide rate is triple New York's and double that of Los Angeles.

Ebony and Irony.  Put simply, there is no evidence to suggest that blacks aren't committing the majority of homicides in general and first degree murders in particular.  Nor is there any evidence to suggest that proponents of affirmative action will demand that we begin to execute more blacks to make up for their present under-representation in American death chambers.

FBI called to deal with 'race' gang violence.  Police in Los Angeles have been forced to call in the FBI to deal with a surge in gang-related violence between Latino and black youths.  The initiative has been prompted by incidents such as the shooting of a 14-year-old black girl last month by Latino gang members, who are thought to have targeted her because of her race.

[No mention of "hate crime" prosecution.]

New Orleans pizza delivery man blinded by bleach in robbery.  Last Thursday about 2:30 p.m., the Domino's Pizza delivery man, whom police did not identify, pulled up to a house in the 8600 block of Palm Street in Hollygrove.  He walked to the front door and began to knock when a man standing nearby said he lived there.  The man, identified in the police report as Alexis, told the driver to keep knocking and someone would answer.  Then, unexpectedly, Alexis allegedly splashed a cup of bleach into the delivery man's eyes, blinding him, and stole the pizza, police said.  The delivery man ran back to his car.  "You know you're not supposed to be back here, white boy!" Alexis allegedly yelled as the man pulled away.

Black-on-white crime is just ordinary crime.  Imagine how this would be reported if the colors were reversed.

Denver police arrest 32 in series of downtown assaults.  The Denver Police Department arrested 32 men and juvenile boys after a months-long undercover investigation into what police said were racially motivated assaults and robberies in downtown Denver, including the LoDo entertainment district.  A task force composed of Denver police, the FBI and the Denver district attorney's office investigated 26 incidents in which groups of black males verbally harassed, assaulted and at times robbed white or Latino males, according to Denver Police Chief Gerry Whitman.

LoDo assault victims often sucker-punched.  [Peter] DeQuattro, who is white, was one of the most recent men targeted in a downtown-centered spree of attacks where small groups of black men and youths — many with admitted gang ties — tried to knock out white or Latino men with whacks to the head.  They sometimes stole from them or taunted them with racial epithets.

Racial terror in Denver that won't make national news.  Chilling details are emerging in the local Colorado press about violent black gangs who have been targeting white victims for months. ... Although police knew what was going on, citizens were left in the dark.  More dangerously blind diversity-mongering at work?

Teacher still out after beating by student.  Vanesta Marshall, a home economics teacher at Worthing who is 5 feet 4 inches tall, said she remembers a ninth-grade male student punching her in the face two or three times before she blacked out Friday [5/11/2007]. … She said school officials didn't inform her about the student's discipline history.  "We're just regular-ed teachers," she said.  "We don't know how to handle violent behavior."

A Violent Racist Game Claims More Victims.  One man was stomped to death and another man nearly killed in a racist amusement called the "knock-out game," currently being played by black teenagers.  The victims were both white, and that fact needs to be raised in our national conversation about race.

The hate that dare not speak its name.  Another week in Philadelphia, another violent episode where people dare not speak its name:  Race Riot.  The latest is Port Richmond, where a mob of black people stormed a house, broke in, and beat up the occupants — all because of something that may or may not have happened to a black teenager on a bike.  One of the attackers pulled a gun.  Luckily the victim disarmed him.  Later that day, another mob returned, this time armed with racial taunts and threats of violence against the white family if they testify in court.  This is just one of dozens of race riots in the Philadelphia over the last two years.

Racial Violence.  In 2008 and 2009, five black people were convicted of the carjacking, torture, rape and murder of University of Tennessee graduates Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.  To the extent the case attracted attention outside Knoxville, it was mostly about how this case was not attracting attention.

DDOT Drivers Refuse To Work: 'They're Scared For Their Lives'.  Henry Gaffney, spokesman for the D-DOT bus drivers union AFL-CIO Local 26, [said] this was not an organized maneuver by the union.  Gaffney said it's a matter of bus drivers fearing for their safety, citing an incident that happened Thursday afternoon [11/3/2011].  "Our drivers are scared, they're scared for their lives.  This has been an ongoing situation about security.  I think yesterday kind of just topped it off, when one of my drivers was beat up by some teenagers down in the middle of Rosa Parks and it took the police almost 30 minutes to get there, in downtown Detroit," said Gaffney.

Moving melee causes chaos at packed Mall of America.  A noisy, racing crowd of more than 200 young people created a chaotic scene at the packed Mall of America Monday evening [12/26/2011], sending frightened shoppers scrambling for safety and causing some stores to close early, eyewitnesses and officials said.  It took more than an hour to quell the disturbance, which began about 4:20 p.m. as a single fight involving a large group in a food court and quickly spread through the nation's largest mall...

Mall of America melee may have started over rumors of Drake and Lil Wayne visit.  Rumors that rap superstars Drake and Lil Wayne were visiting Minnesota's Mall of America may have sparked Monday's massive brawl at the giant retail center, a local TV station said.  Nine people were arrested as dozens of shoppers fought on one of the busiest shopping days of the year, according to local media reports. ... A Mall spokeswoman said the incident involved about 50 youths, but witnesses and police pegged the number at closer to 200.

Riot at the Mall of America.  One of my daughters works at a department store at the Mall of America.  After the riot was over, she texted one of her sisters:  ["][My department store] closed its doors.  It was the scariest thing I have ever seen.  Hundreds of gang members running through the Mall knocking things over.  And there were fights all over!  A good half of them were wearing red.["]

National Guardsman thwarts Red Line robbery; 3 teens arrested.  Three teens who attempted to rob a judo instructor with a replica gun at a CTA station got more than they bargained for, police say.  It wasn't the judo teacher who taught them a lesson, authorities say, but an Army National Guardsman armed with a real gun.

Racial Violence.  When I told my friends I was working on a magazine article, then a book, about a tsunami of racial violence in America over the last two years, they said, "I haven't heard about that."  When my Tennessee friend told me about a horrific racial crime in Knoxville, Tennessee, I told him:  "I haven't heard about that."  Outside of Tennessee, most did not.  Locals may remember the story:  In 2008 and 2009, five black people were convicted of the carjacking, torture, rape and murder of University of Tennessee graduates Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.  To the extent the case attracted attention outside Knoxville, it was mostly about how this case was not attracting attention.

A Beating and Racial Slurs But No Hate-crime Charges.  Ah, the left-wing capacity for rationalization knows no bounds.  While we're told that even substantive criticism of Barack Obama is driven by the hatefulness the left has dubbed "racism," a racial attack by three black teenagers on two white men in Philadelphia this past Monday [1/30/2012] is, somehow, not.

13 wounded at Arizona rap concert shooting.  Tempe Police spokesman Sergeant Steve Carbajal said officers responded to reports of shots fired at the Clubhouse Music Venue at 11:30 p.m. Friday [3/2/2012] local time. ... "Witnesses have reported that after the shooting, two black males wearing dark colored clothing fled the scene on foot," Carbajal said.  "Those individuals have not been located at this time."

Exclusive: Chris Rock Attacks Conservative Author Over Tea Party Question.  The confrontation, which took place around 2:00 a.m. on January 23, 2012, at Spike Lee's Sundance Film Festival after party at Tao night club, ended with Chris Rock challenging the conservative author to a fight, says [Jason] Mattera:  "Chris Rock shouted, 'You want to throw down?  Let's throw down right now!'  Of course, he was standing safely behind two bodyguards when he said it."

Political rope-a-dope.  Crime is one of the results of the liberal agenda.  Blacks are 13 percent of the population but are more than 50 percent of murder victims.  About 95 percent of black homicide victims had a black person as their murderer.  Blacks are not only the major victims of murder but also suffer high victimization rates of all categories of serious violent crime.  Most often, another black is the perpetrator.

Man Charged With Murder In Assault On Elderly Couple.  A Tulsa man has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with an assault that left a woman dead and her husband injured.  Court documents show 19-year-old Tyrone Woodfork was charged Monday [3/26/2012] with first-degree murder, first-degree burglary and two counts of armed robbery.

Shawn Tyson gets life sentence for murdering British tourists in Florida.  A teenager who shot dead two British tourists on holiday in Florida will spend his life in prison after he was convicted of two counts of murder.  A jury in Sarasota took just two hours to decide that Shawn Tyson, 17, killed James Cooper, 25, and James Kouzaris, 24, after they strayed into a rundown area of the city after a night out last April.

Seven black teens arrested for hate crimes.  Seven black teenagers who allegedly attacked a Latino boy in Palmdale, Calif., were arrested by police after footage of the attack was posted on YouTube, KTLA reported.

The Murders That Don't Count.  Jesse Jackson is right that "blacks are under attack."  According to a 2005 FBI report, blacks accounted for 13 percent of the population and 49 percent of all homicide victims.  In 93 percent of the cases, the killer was black.  Half of the victims were ages 17 to 29.  That works out to 4,000 murders of young blacks in one year, overwhelmingly at the hands of other blacks.

Democrats Responsible for Black Culture of Anger.  Black twenty-year-old male Danielle Simpson, with two black associates, was interrupted by 84-year-old Geraldine Davidson while in the process of burglarizing Davidson's home.  The group duct-taped her mouth, bound her hands and legs, and threw the white former schoolteacher and church organist into the trunk of her own car.  Ms. Davidson was severely brutalized before the trio eventually tied a rope attached to a cinderblock around her legs and threw her, still alive, into the river.  Brutal crimes are not unique.  But here is what makes this case remarkable.  For seven hours, Simpson rode around in Ms. Davidson's car, stopping for fast food and opening the truck to show off his victim to his black friends.

Blacks Can Murder Whites, and It Won't Make National News.  If you're a 20-year-old black male, you can beat an 85-year-old white woman to death and pummel her 90-year-old white husband straight into ICU, and it won't make the national news.  Yep. Tyrone Woodfork, a black male who — much like Trayvon Martin — looks like Obama's son, allegedly killed Nancy Strait and broke her husband Bob's jaw, several ribs and shot him in the face with a BB gun last month in Tulsa.  20-year-old Tyrone also raped the nearly blind 97-pound Mrs. Strait, a great-great-grandmother, before he murdered her.  Did the above monstrous crime make the national news?  [No!]

Do the Media Want a Race War?  [Scroll down]  And where is our President in all of this?  He says that "If I had a son, he would look like Trayvon Martin."  You do have two daughters, Mr. President.  Does either one of them look like Aliyah Shell?  In case you've never heard of Aliyah, she was a 6-year-old black girl in Chicago who was shot to death last month while sitting with her mother on the front porch of her home.  She was one of 10 blacks murdered in Chicago over St. Patrick's Day weekend.  Police say all 10 were murdered by other blacks.

No Attention for Daylight Highway Stabbing in Alabama.  A frightening event happened March 28 on an Alabama highway.  The event has received no national attention apart from a lone story in the Macon Beacon in Macon, Mississippi.  Not only was the event frightening, but the response — or lack thereof — by Alabama law enforcement authorities was almost as frightening.  The local media, including the Birmingham News, failed to cover the shocking attack.  With the flurry of national media attention the Trayvon Martin killing has received, why hasn't the daylight stabbing of Nick Stokes received any attention?

Police to White Victim: We 'Don't Mess' with Black Gang.  Most of us have heard about how the media won't report on black-on-white crime.  We also may know that authorities sometimes sweep it under the rug due to political pressure, usually with a wink and a nod.  But not so in rural Alabama, where the police actually told a white crime victim that they "don't mess" with a local black motorcycle gang.  The tragic event that led to this shocking admission occurred on March 28, as truck driver Nick Stokes and neighbor Johnathan Cooper were heading out of Birmingham hauling a portable cabin.

Media Dishonesty and Race Hustlers.  Let's look at some non-news cases.  On March 14 in Tulsa, Okla., a white couple suffered a home invasion by Tyrone Woodfork, a 20-year-old black man. [...] On March 4, two black Kansas City, Mo., youths doused a 13-year-old boy in gasoline and set him on fire, telling him, "You get what you deserve, white boy."  Last summer, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel ordered an emergency shutdown of the beaches in Chicago because mobs of blacks were terrorizing white families.  Several years ago, in Knoxville, Tenn., a young white couple was kidnapped by four blacks. [...] None of those black-on-white atrocities made anywhere near the news that the Trayvon Martin case made, and it's deliberate.

Another NYC shooting death that doesn't fit the MSM Narrative.  A 48-year old retired NYC police lieutenant is being heralded as a hero for shooting down a would-be armed robber, but you won't hear much about this story from the MSM because it doesn't fit the "Trayvon Martin" narrative.  The New York Post reported Friday [4/13/2012] that two men attempted to rob a drug store at gun point looking for cash and expensive prescription drugs.  What they got was more than they bargained for.

Suspect: I Beat Up White Man Because I Am Mad About Trayvon Martin Case.  Alton L. Hayes III, a west suburban man charged with a hate crime, told police he was so upset about the Trayvon Martin case in Florida that he beat up a white man early Tuesday [4/17/2012].  Hayes and a 15-year-old Chicago boy walked up behind the 19-year-old man victim and pinned his arms to his side, police said.  Hayes, 18, then picked up a large tree branch, pointed it at the man and said, "Empty your pockets, white boy."

Man grabs microphone from reporter on live TV, shouts 'n-word'.  A North Carolina man is facing assault charges for bum rushing a news reporter on live TV, grabbing her microphone and shouting the n-word into the camera.  The broadcast quickly ended, and [Justin] Moore, was arrested just a few moments later, WMBF reported.  Moore was charged with third degree assault and battery, and released from jail Thursday afternoon [4/19/2012] on $1,400 bond.

Man Beaten By Mob, In Critical Condition.  Mobile police need your help to catch a mob that beat Matthew Owens so badly that he's in critical condition. [...] Owens' sister, Ashley Parker, saw the attack.  "It was the scariest thing I have ever witnessed."  Parker says 20 people, all African American, attacked her brother on the front porch of his home, using "brass buckles, paint cans and anything they could get their hands on."  Police will only say "multiple people" are involved.

MBTA: Have you seen this spitter?  The MBTA has released surveillance video of two teens who allegedly spit at and threatened a bus driver last week in hopes of bringing them to justice.  The incident took place around 8:45 p.m. Wednesday [4/18/2012] after a suspect believed to be in his late teens refused to pay when he boarded a Route 28 bus at Ruggles Station, putting only a quarter in the fare machine when told by the 51-year-old driver to either pay up or get off the bus, according to the MBTA.

Feds Will Decide If Matthew Owens Beating Is A Hate Crime.  Deputy Chief Lester Hargrove says investigators believe only four people, including Terry Rawls, were directly involved.  They believe the rest of the mob just watched.  Police say the beating is the result of a three year neighborhood dispute between Rawls and [Matthew] Owens.

Calling Out the Mobile Police Department.  As I reported yesterday [4/25/2012], the Mobile Police Department is ludicrously claiming that it is likely that no more than three people will be arrested for the now-infamous mob beating of a man in Mobile because the other 17 or so people were supposedly just "onlookers."

If You Don't Look Like Obama's Son, No One Cares.  The news story is horrifying:  after a trivial encounter with a group of youths who were playing basketball, a man in Mobile, Alabama, was set upon by a gang of twenty men armed with brass knuckles, chairs, pipes and paint cans.  The victim, Matthew Owens, was attacked on his own front porch and beaten within an inch of his life.

Beating of Alabama man not seen as hate crime, despite claim 'Trayvon' invoked.  A racially charged beating of a white Alabama man by a throng of African-Americans is not being investigated as a hate crime, despite one witness' claim that she heard an assailant exclaim:  "Now that's justice for Trayvon."

Victim's sister: Mobile, Ala. black-on-white beating sparked by theft, not basketball.  The sister of a white Mobile, Alabama man who suffered severe head trauma during a beating by approximately 20 black neighbors on Saturday spoke exclusively to The Daily Caller, saying that the incident started after one of her children witnessed some of the eventual assailants stealing an item from a neighbor's porch — not, as some media outlets have reported, following a disagreement about a pick-up basketball game in the street.

The Mob in Mobile.  Last Saturday night at 8:20 p.m., when the white Matthew Owens was beaten into critical condition by a mob of dozens of black neighbors, Al Sharpton and the New Black Panthers got what they wanted:  a white victim, any white victim, in payback for the killing of Trayvon Martin.  May God have mercy on their miserable souls — because the rest of us should shun them mercilessly from all decent society.

Motivated By Media Lies About George Zimmerman, a Hate Crime Occurs In Chicago.  We're learning today that in Obama's Chicago, 18-year-old Alton L. Hayes has just been charged by police with "attempted robbery and aggravated battery along with a hate crime" for attacking and robbing a 19-year-old man.  Hayes is black, the victim is white, and Hayes told investigators "he was angry about the [Trayvon] Martin shooting and decided to attack the victim because of his race."

Another one!
 Authorities: Racially charged beating sparked by death of Trayvon Martin.  An 18-year-old man charged with a hate crime in Oak Park told investigators he beat his victim in anger over the shooting death of Trayvon Martin, according to the Cook County state's attorney office.  Alton L. Hayes, of the 1200 block of Woodbine Avenue in Oak Park, was charged with attempted robbery and aggravated battery along with a hate crime, state's attorney spokesman Andy Conklin said Wednesday afternoon [4/25/2012].  A 15-year-old Chicago boy also was charged with attempted robbery in the incident.

20 Years for Standing Her Ground.  "I got five baby mammas, and I put my hands on every last one of them except for one," Rico Gray confessed during a November 2010 deposition.  "The way I was with women ... they had to walk on eggshells around me."  He recalled punching women in the face, shoving them, choking them, and tossing them out the door.  Yet somehow, after one of those women fired a warning shot into the ceiling of her Jacksonville, Florida, home to scare him away during yet another violent outburst, prosecutors managed to convince a jury that Gray was the victim.  As a result, Marissa Alexander, a 31-year-old mother of three, faces 20 years in prison for standing her ground against an abusive husband.

Ugly Truths About Prejudice.  A number of commentators have pointed out the enormous focus that civil rights leaders have put on the death of Trayvon Martin at the hands of a white man, while essentially ignoring the vastly more common situation of black on black murder.  On an average day in 2010, there were eighteen blacks murdered in the U.S., and sixteen of those black victims were murdered by other blacks — and yet those crimes seem to be of no real interest to the mainstream media or the race hustlers like Al Sharpton.

Social Degeneration.  [Scroll down]  Just to identify the rioters and looters as black is a radical departure, when mayors, police chiefs and the media in other cities report on these outbreaks of violence without mentioning the race of those who are doing these things.  The Chicago Tribune even made excuses for failing to mention race when reporting on violent attacks by blacks on whites in Chicago.  Such excuses might make sense if the same politicians and media talking heads were not constantly mentioning race when denouncing the fact that a disproportionate number of young black men are being sent to prison.

Social Degeneration Part 2.  Although much of the media have their antennae out to pick up anything that might be construed as racism against blacks, they resolutely ignore even the most blatant racism by blacks against others.  That includes a pattern of violent attacks on whites in public places in Chicago, Denver, New York, Milwaukee, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and Kansas City, as well as blacks in schools beating up Asian classmates — for years — in New York and Philadelphia.  These attacks have been accompanied by explicitly racist statements by the attackers, so it is not a question of having to figure out what the motivation is.

Blacks must not remain silent about America's new racists.  Tuskegee Institute records show that between the years 1880 and 1951, 3,437 blacks and 1,293 whites were lynched. ... Today all that has changed.  Most racist assaults are committed by blacks.  What's worse is there're blacks, still alive, who lived through the times of lynching, Jim Crow laws and open racism who remain silent in the face of it.

New Black Panthers to protest 'non-blacks'.  The New Black Panther Party — an organization known largely for their intimidation of voters outside a Philadelphia precinct — has announced plans for a "National Day of Action and Unity," — ironically urging followers (on their day of unity) to boycott all "non-black business" on April 23.

Blacks Have Separated Themselves from America.  Whatever else Martin Luther King had on his agenda, his words of "judging the content of character, not the color on one's skin," resonated with Americans then and now.  Those words summed up the entire perception I had of his struggle for equal rights.  Those words are what I thought the struggle was about.  I now realize that King's words don't represent the dream of the majority of blacks in America.  I say that because those words are not what blacks have attempted to achieve.  The goal post shifted from those words.  King's marches and speeches have become a platform for angry blacks to achieve both reparations and an elevated status that's far more divisive than uniting.

Ramblings About Race.  A white neighbor was stunned when I told him I was not voting for Barack Obama.  He said, "You're black.  He is black.  I don't get it.  What is wrong with you?" ... It was weird enough that I, a black, openly express love for America, but I actually expected the first African-American presidential candidate to go through the usual vetting process.  Clearly, in their minds, Obama's skin color trumped everything.

The Editor says...
 Yes it did, and it still does.

Is Black Support for Obama Racist?  Black approval of President Obama is virtually unchanged at 91 percent since his inauguration.  Now, unless we believe that 91 percent of blacks are truly as radical as Obama (and every indication is that blacks are far more conservative than he is), then what explains how Obama could have 91% approval, when even among Democrats as a whole, that number is lower at just 79 percent?  Worse, black poverty is higher now than under President Bush.  In fact, during the Bush years, black unemployment was actually lower than during Clinton's terms (you know, "the first black president"), at an average of 9 percent and certainly lower than the 16.3 percent it stands at today.

He's Obama!  He's black!  So, shut up!  I received this message on Twitter from a black female, "Lloyd Marcus "F—— you!", in response to my opposition to Obama.  This woman is obviously a non thinking racist who refuses to take an honest look at her black idol president.  She has chosen to ignore Obama's long list of offenses of shredding the Constitution, governing against the will of the American people and using Chicago thug tactics.  All this black woman knows is Obama is the chosen one and he is black.  So shut up!

Replacing Black Power With Militant Islam.  Even with the age of Obama dawning, for too many black Americans life is still fraught with the same old "us against them" sort of thinking.  Where once militant blacks paraded in pseudo military garb claiming the mantle of "black power" and patterning themselves as "panthers" thrusting an angry fist into the air, now they cling to the separatist ideals of militant Islam.

The Racism of the Black Community.  How can blacks truly approve of Obama more highly than they did when he was elected?  The black unemployment rate is 15.6 percent today, as opposed to 11.9 percent in December 2008, over 50 percent higher than the white unemployment rate.  There is no rhyme or reason to the continued support for a man who has driven the economy off the rails.  But there is racism.

Hating Whitey Makes Unexpected Comeback.  From anyone's pre-election calculations, an Obama presidency held the promise of relieving America's white citizens of their centuries-long guilt over slavery and civil-rights injustices.  Such, however, has not been at all the case and hating whitey is making an unexpected comeback.

Obama's Popularity Falling -- But Not Among Blacks.  On Monday, the daily presidential tracking poll for Rasmussen Reports showed that Barack Obama no longer has the job performance approval of a majority of Americans.  His overall approval rating was down to an even 50 percent.  Released on the same day was a demographic breakdown of that rating:  only 41 percent of white Americans approve of the job he's doing, while 97 percent of blacks approve and 58 percent of all other ethnicities combined approve.

The Editor says...
 I suspect the blacks will approve of him as long as he continues to be black, no matter what he does.

Conservative Blacks Choose Pigment Over Principle.  What is it about this man that has thoughtful, conservative blacks like Armstrong Williams and JC Watts saying they might vote for him?  It can't be his left of left politics that makes even Ted Kennedy look conservative.  What thinking conservative could actually support a man who is going to raise taxes, increase the size of government, redistribute wealth, burden small businesses and the working class, and play nice with people who want to destroy us?

Saving us from the race card.  The temptation for black conservatives who disagree with Mr. Obama on everything to vote for him anyway as a gesture of racial solidarity is understandable.  A lot of Southern whites, thrilled that one of their own could make it to the White House for the first time since the Civil War, voted for Jimmy Carter.  We've been trying to live down the shame of it since.

Black Republicans are unfairly marginalized, demonized and vilified.  What is it about black Republicans that makes black Democrats cuss them, ignore them, or call them names?  When I was a Democrat, I never paid much attention to the negativity hurled at black Republicans.  That's probably because I never bought into the habit of gossiping about people or calling them names.  My main focus had always been about people's deeds — whether positive or negative.

Racial Organizations:  There are hundreds of organizations in the state and the country that are restricted to only black members.  Are they not racists? … Although Huntsville, Alabama has a city Chamber of Commerce, at one time headed by a black person, blacks created their own Chamber — no whites allowed.  Also, in Huntsville, blacks have their own telephone book — no white businesses allowed.  And, there are a host of other all-black organizations, including their own Masonic Lodge.  Isn't this racist?

Too White to Win?  Democratic Rep. Stephen Cohen … has worked tirelessly on behalf of his constituents and even went so far as to sponsor an official Congressional apology for slavery that passed the House last week in an apparent effort by Democratic leaders to bolster his chances.  But Mr. Cohen hasn't been welcomed by many black leaders.  He made a clumsy attempt to join the Congressional Black Caucus this year, and was rebuffed.

If this isn't black racism in action, what is it?
 Black caucus calls for more diversity in bailouts.  Members of the Congressional Black Caucus on Monday criticized the lack of minority participation in the government's financial bailouts and suggested that President Barack Obama isn't doing much better than his predecessor to ensure diversity.

The Real Agenda of Black Liberation Theology.  In an article in the Washington Post, unnamed ministers commented that black liberation theology "encourages a preacher to speak forcefully against the institutions of oppression…"  And what might these institutions be?  They are not specified.  But it is safe to say that they are not the welfare state or the Democratic Party.  Given that black liberation theology is a product of the dreary leftist politics of the twentieth century, the very vehicles employed by the left to advance statism certainly can't be the culprits.  For the left, black liberation theology makes for close to a perfect faith.  It is a political creed larded with religion.  It serves not to reconcile and unite blacks with the larger cultural, but to keep them separate.

Afrocentrism Is the Problem.  At its heart, Afrocentrism is based on a profoundly anti-white and paranoid ideology.  First, it asserts that the entire foundation of Western Civilization was stolen by the Greeks from Egypt, which, Afrocentrics claim, was ruled by ancient blacks.  Second, it claims that whites are deeply inferior.  Afrocentric texts often describe whites as "ice people," whose defective melanin, or skin pigmentation, makes them susceptible to a host of mental and physical deficiencies, including sexual deviancy.  And, finally, Afrocentrism encourages blacks to fear whites.

Judge Orders Whites Out Of Atlanta Court.  Judge Marvin Arrington insists he's not a racist; despite ordering white lawyers out of his courtroom on Thursday.  The Fulton County Superior Court judge said he was just fed up seeing a parade of young black defendants in his courtroom. … The judge said the majority of people who appear before him accused of crimes such as murder, rape and robbery are black and he wanted to do something about it, one on one.

Georgia Judge:  Blacks-Only Talk Was Bad Idea.  A black judge says he was wrong to evict whites from his courtroom so he could deliver a stern lecture to black defendants, but says he meant no harm.  "I wanted to have a fireside chat," Fulton Superior Court Judge Marvin Arrington said Thursday.  "And my grandmother said years ago that if you're going to fuss at black people, you don't need to do it in front of white people."

The Editor says...
 I have no objection to the judge's actions, if they are effective in reducing crime and convincing the defendants of the overall fairness of the judicial process.  On the other hand, the judge seems to have imposed his own flavor of racial segregation -- something that has been opposed by black "leaders" for decades, unless it works to their advantage.

Tancredo:  Abolish Black, Hispanic Caucuses.  White House hopeful Tom Tancredo said Thursday [1/25/2007] the existence of the Congressional Black Caucus and other race-based groups of lawmakers amounts to segregation and should be abolished. … "If we are serious about achieving the goal of a colorblind society, Congress should lead by example and end these divisive, race-based caucuses," said Tancredo...

"I pledge allegience to my black people".  One of the nation's fastest-rising poetry prodigies is a 7-year-old New York girl whose poisonous demagogic advocacy of black separatism makes Al Sharpton look like Mister Rogers. … Autum Ashante' is the natural offspring of militant multiculturalism and government-sanctioned identity politics.  We reap what we sow.

Black racism:  When we finally stop patronizing loafers, louts and criminals, stop encouraging people who were born 120 years after the Emancipation Proclamation, 20 years after the passage of the Civil Rights Act, to pretend that their sloth and ignorance are the fault of whites, only then will blacks come one step closer to having that colorblind society they claim they want.

Not black enough:  Alternately, students at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine, are lifting up and lashing back at a recent guest speaker invited by the school's College Republicans club.  The group invited Vernon Robinson, a University of North Carolina professor, to address students in honor of Black History Month.

Black Racism at Work:  For nearly half a century, predominately white America has been trying to atone for past wrongs done to black people.  However, nothing seems to be enough.  The more society adapts to their demands, the more the demands increase.  And, the demands have gone well beyond that which is justified.

Kill the white man?  Writing in the current edition of Harvard Magazine, Noel Ignatiev, a Harvard fellow and Marxist activist, argues that "abolishing the white race" (give or take a few murders, of course) "is desirable" because it would rectify the overt discrimination of the past.

Inter-Racial Crime:  The Dirty Little Secret.

"I Hit This White Man" Giggler Charged With Murder:  A motorist who allegedly hit a homeless man and left him impaled in her windshield until he died — and who later laughed about her actions — was indicted for murder [4/25/2002].  There was no explanation why she was not charged with a "hate crime."

 Update:   Motorist Guilty in Windshield Murder:  A fact that many media are refusing to report about the case:  Mallard, who is black, giggled as she told friends several months later, "I hit this white man."  She has never, however, been charged with a "hate crime."

The Strange Phenomenon of Black Anti-Semitism:  Anti-Semitism in America, according to a survey commissioned by the Anti-Defamation League, stands at an all-time low.  But alarmingly, the survey found blacks three to four times more likely than non-blacks to be anti-Semitic.  Given the tremendous historical Jewish support for blacks, this insensitivity toward Jews and Israel suggests ignorance and lack of gratitude.

Whites File Bias Suit Against Black College:  Five white professors in Salisbury, N.C., have filed a lawsuit against Livingstone College, claiming the private college discriminated against them because of the color of their skin.

Denny's victory may show the way for other companies:  One of the biggest victims of anti-white racism is the restaurant chain Denny's, which since 1994 has had to shell out more than $50 million in settlement costs and legal fees to assuage the alleged heartbreak various non-white patrons experienced when they supposedly found themselves denied service because of their race.  Now, after years of groveling before the idols of Afro-racism, Denny's is fighting back — and winning.  There may be a lesson here for much of corporate America.

Fired white worker files discrimination suit against E.C. health center.  Taunts of "snowflake" and "honky" and KKK references peppered Lois Sinder's days working in an all-black department at an East Chicago health center between 2005 and 2009, according to court records.  Sinder was the only white employee in the Lake County Nursing and Rehabilitation Center's dietitian department, states a federal civil suit filed last week, and her black co-workers did not let her forget it.

Back to the 1950s:
 Africentric school to open in 2009.  After years of debate that has divided communities of every colour, Toronto's public school board voted tonight to open an Africentric alternative school in September 2009.  The junior kindergarten to Grade 5 school Ñ believed to be a first in Canada Ñ is expected to help tackle a 40 percent dropout rate among black students.

Rev. Jackson would condone flash mob attacks.  Many have asked what inspired this spate of black-on-white mob attacks.  The most obvious answer is the one we don't want to mention.  Plain, simple racism.  I don't know what else to call it when mobs of blacks single out whites to attack.  But there still exists this notion that blacks can't be racists.  Racism requires power, the thinking goes.  Since blacks have no power, they can't be racists.

MSNBC Gives a Violent Racist a TV Show.  Of course MSNBC would never give a white racist like David Duke his own show.  But they have no problem giving one to Al Sharpton.

New Divisiveness From The Racists in the Congressional Black Caucus.  The most recent stop for this group of African American racial agitators was Miami Beach.  The night before the jobs fair they held a town hall so they could talk politics.  Rather than discuss politics this group set up on their objective widen the racial divide in America. ... All of these racial arsonists should be ashamed of themselves.

Maxine Waters Needs a Mirror.  Queen of the poverty pimps Maxine Waters must so wish that Obama were a whole white man.  Democrat or not, if Obama were white, Waters would be heaping all the blame on those frail little shoulders of his.  But because Obama has been presented as "authentically black," Waters was recently forced to stop short of condemning him.  Instead, she unleashed on the closest white item she could find:  the Tea Party.  Anything to keep her ignorant followers from actually thinking about where to place the blame.

The Editor apologizes for the profanity in this headline.
 Kerosene Maxine to Tea Party: "Go to Hell!".  [Representative Maxine] Waters once said of the then-sitting president:  "I would like to ... say ... very clearly that I believe George (H.W.) Bush is a racist."  She routinely refers to the Republican Party as "the enemy."  She also referred to Republican former Los Angeles Mayor Richard Riordan as a "plantation owner."  She called the 1992 Los Angeles riots a "rebellion," and bellowed, "No justice, no peace!"  She defended looters:  "There were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes.  Maybe they shouldn't have done it, but the atmosphere was such that they did it.  They are not crooks."

Sorry, Your "Race Card" is Expired, Over-Limit, and Declined!.  This week I heard yet another black liberal caller to a conservative radio program who felt "offended" that there was so much opposition to "America's First Black President."  As I listened, I began to think just how racist the caller's line of thinking was!  He was defending the President based SOLEY [sic] on his race.  Irrespective of the President's policies, plan, purpose or performance — he was deemed unassailable because he is black.  But is he?

Beating the Racism Card.  [The 2012] campaign is going to be about one thing:  racism.  No matter what else happens, racism will be the theme. ... This is the essence of totalitarian thought control:  you cannot win, you cannot remain aloof, you cannot get out of the game.  That being the case, the game board must be broken, the pieces scattered, and the rules burnt.

Reverse Racism.  Those people of good will who want to replace the racism of the past with a post-racial society have too often overlooked the fact that there are others who instead want to put racism under new management, to have reverse discrimination as racial payback for past injustices.  Attorney General Eric Holder became a key figure epitomizing the view that government's role in racial matters was not to be an impartial dispenser of equal justice for all, but to be a racial partisan and an organ of racial payback.

Can Obama hold on to African American voters in 2012?  For several months, radio host Tom Joyner has pleaded with his 8 million listeners to get in line behind the first black president.  "Stick together, black people," says Joyner, whose R&B morning show reaches one in four African American adults. ... Even as Obama and his campaign play down the suggestion that support among African Americans is flagging, a cadre of powerful allies is snapping back at critics in the black community and making explicit appeals for racial loyalty.

The Editor says...
 Racial loyalty?  "Stick together, black people"?  Is that is not blatant racism, what is it?

WaPo Finds Blacks Demanding Racial (Racist?) Unity Behind Obama.  The front page of The Washington Post carried a story Tuesday [10/18/2011] on black liberals demanding all blacks stand with President Obama — just because he's black. ... On the front page, Thompson quoted from radio host Tom Joyner on his BlackAmericaWeb.com blog.  "Let's not even deal with the facts right now.  Let's deal with just our blackness and pride — and loyalty.  We have the chance to re-elect the first African-American president, and that's what we ought to be doing.  And I'm not afraid or ashamed to say that as black people, we should do it because he's a black man."

Vote For Obama Because He's Black.  At the 2004 Democratic National Convention in Boston, Sen. Barack Obama said, "...There is not a black America and a white America and Latino America and Asian America — there is the United States of America."  Those were welcome and commendable words.  Unfortunately, they appear to be only words.  Since then, Obama has divided us along race and class lines more than any modern president.  Some of his strongest, high-profile supporters in the black community are now saying that Obama's race, alone, should be enough for black voters to vote for his re-election.

CBC chairman: African Americans would 'march on the White House' if Obama wasn't black.  Rep. Emanueal Cleaver — the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus — told The Daily Caller that African Americans won't "march on the White House" over the high unemployment rate in the black community because President Barack Obama is black.

Samuel L. Jackson Drops the Act: Admits He Only Voted for Obama because of Race.  Jackson admitted that he only voted for Barack Obama because of the president's skin color.  Said the actor, "I voted for Barack because he was black.  'Cuz that's why other folks vote for other people — because they look like them.  That's American politics, pure and simple.  [Obama's] message didn't mean **** to me."  Well, Jackson certainly isn't alone in his ignoring of Obama's message. ... 96 percent of blacks supported Obama in 2008.

Samuel L. Jackson: I Voted for Obama because he's black.  Barack Obama's politics meant nothing to Samuel L. Jackson because the "Pulp Fiction" star only voted for the president for one reason and one reason only ... because he's black.

'I Voted for Barack Because He Was Black'.  It seems actor Samuel L. Jackson didn't care about either the hope or the change Sen. Barack Obama promised back in 2008.  The young Chicago politician shared the same skin color as Jackson, and that was enough.

Actor Samuel L. Jackson — Vote Your Race.  Jackson insists he just does what every voter does.  If they did, Obama could not have been elected U.S. senator from Illinois (15 percent of the state is black, 72 percent white) or the president of the United States (13 percent black, 72 percent white). ... Polls repeatedly show that only a small percentage of Americans refuse for vote for a black person.

Republicans need to stand up against Waters racist rhetoric.  At the heart of this tediously ongoing investigation is that Maxine Waters (D-CA) is an old school house bully and if you are going question her, get ready to fight.  Feeding on emotionally energized behavior during the 2012 California Democratic State Convention, Waters was calling House Speaker John Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor "demons" whom she doesn't want to see "in our hall, on our screens."  The Republicans will always be called demons and devils until they learn how to fight back with logic and solution to urban social subsidized issues versus the emotional rhetoric coming from democrat leaders like Waters who has a method to her oratory madness.

Obama's Marxist Faith Is Legitimate Campaign Issue.  BLT [Black Liberation Theology], in fact, is the Rosetta stone for understanding Obama and his agenda, decoding his rhetoric, and divining where he plans to take this country.  Here is a primer:
  •   The doctrine is an explicitly Marxist interpretation of the Bible whose aim is to stir up class and race hatred.
  •   BLT combines the teachings of Christ with those of Marx to justify the overthrow of the capitalist system.
  •   It does not believe the Bible is inerrant.  Hence, it can be, as Obama put it, "modified to accommodate modern life."
  •   BLT ignores the epistles of Paul and the other apostles since they accept the institution of slavery that existed at the time.
  •   As professor James Cone, the father of BLT, once explained it, "Black theology seeks to prepare all nonwhites for revolutionary action."

Obama Plays Race Card, Calls on Churches to Support Campaign.  Imagine if Ron Paul announced a national campaign called 'Whites for Ron Paul' — he'd be vilified as a racist.  And yet Barack Obama has done the equivalent of precisely that with his launch of 'African Americans for Obama'.

Derrick Bell: The Jeremiah Wright Of Harvard.  Obama's days at Harvard have been shrouded in secrecy.  But a new video lifts a corner of the veil, revealing his creepy embrace of the "Jeremiah Wright of academia."  It turns out his favorite law professor was the late Derrick Bell, a black radical who taught classes trashing the Constitution as racist.  He liked Bell so much he led a law school "strike" in support of him in 1991, when the professor went on unpaid leave to protest the lack of affirmative-action hiring on campus.

Reaching Critical Mass.  Is CRT oriented around some notion of white dominance or white supremacy?  I think we can count on the NY Times to present critical race theory in as gauzy and flattering a focus as possible, so let's see how they described it over the years.

The Racist Ravings of Derrick Bell.  Derrick Bell is best known as the founding father of Critical Race Theory, an academic discipline which maintains that society is divided along racial lines into (white) oppressors and (black) victims, similar to the way Marxism frames the oppressor/victim dichotomy along class lines.  Critical Race Theory contends that America is permanently racist to its core, and that consequently its legal structures are, by definition, racist and invalid.  A logical derivative of this premise, according to Critical Race Theory, is that the members of "oppressed" racial groups are entitled — in fact obligated — to determine for themselves which laws and traditions have merit and are worth observing.  Such a perspective's implications for the ability of civil society to function at all, are nothing short of monumental.

Was Boy in K.C. Fire Attack a Victim of His School's Racist Teaching?.  The boy raised his hand, eager to answer the question.  "What would you know about it?" exclaimed the teacher dismissively.  "You're not our race."  This was not dialogue from a Hollywood movie.  According to a woman named Melissa Coon, it was what a teacher at East High School in Kansas City told her 13-year-old son, Allen, when he attempted to answer a question during Black History Month.  Coon identifies that teacher as Mrs. Karla Dorsey, who is black; Allen is white.

Chicago Bears' Lovie Smith Calls on Blacks to Back Obama.  "Our future's looking bright, because I trust the man who's leading us.  And that man is Barack Obama," Smith, 53, says in a new Obama campaign Web video to promote the group African-Americans for Obama.  "I have the president's back, and it's up to us as African-Americans to show that we have his back also."  Ninety-six percent of black voters in the latest ABC News-Washington Post poll say they approve of the way Obama has handled his job, while just 3 percent do not.

How Derrick Bell Beat Martin Luther King Jr.:  "History proves that the white man is a devil," said Malcolm X.  "Whites are liars," said Jeremiah Wright.  "I love to harass white folks," said Derrick Bell.  "This is what you deserve.  You get what you deserve, white boy," a black teenager said to Allen Coon, a white student on the porch of his own home, as he set him on fire. ... While white racism continues to decline year by year, black racism has advanced to the White House and into the hearts and minds of millions.  It leads to everything from discrimination to murder.

'The Blacks: A Clown Show'.  [Scroll down]  The play comes back to me now as do Genet's words, because in my recollection of that production and rereading of Genet's work half a century later it occurs to me that his play is a forerunner of Critical Race Theory, a racialist concept at total odds with American principles and ideals, a concept unfortunately at the very heart of our President and his administration.  At its very core CRT is hatred and from it Obama's ideas are born.

Discover the Networks: The late Derrick Albert Bell, Jr..  [Scroll down]  In 1994 Bell was quoted as having predicted that eventually America would witness the rise of charismatic new black leaders who, in the interests of retributive racial justice, would "urge that instead of [African Americans] killing each other, they should go out in gangs and kill a whole lot of white people." ... Bell endorsed a journal called Race Traitor, whose stated aim is "to abolish the white race, which means no more and no less than abolishing the privileges of the white skin."  Moreover, the publication's guiding principle is:  "Treason to whiteness is loyalty to humanity."

LeDuff to Minister Malik Shabazz: Burn Down Detroit, Are You Out of Your Mind?  Minister Malik Shabazz made headlines when he made this impassioned remark at a Detroit financial review meeting on Monday [3/26/2012]:  "This is white supremacy, and we will fight you.  Before you can take over our city, we will burn it down first."  Shabazz is upset that Governor Rick Snyder will appoint an emergency manager to run the city of Detroit if it cannot find a way to restructure the budget.

Allen West: The New Black Panther bounty on Zimmerman is a hate crime.  Rep. Allen West, who has previously decried the police "mishandling" of the Trayvon Martin shooting as an "outrage" and called for a Justice Department investigation, on Wednesday found himself wondering why that very same Justice Department isn't treating the New Black Panther Party's bounty for the man who shot Martin as a "hate crime."

Van Jones: Even a gay Obama won't lose black vote.  During a segment [on MSNBC] on gay marriage, anchor Alex Witt asked Jones if Obama, "would lose some of the black vote if he did come out in support of gay marriage."  "I think if he came out as gay, he wouldn't lose the black vote," Jones said with a chuckle.  "President Obama is not going to lose the black vote no matter what he does."

Six youths 'beat man, 78, in alleged racial revenge attack'.  A 78-year-old white man says he was savagely beaten by a gang of six youths shouting:  'This is for Trayvon.  Kill that white.'  Six youngsters aged between 11 and 17, both white and black, allegedly launched a merciless attack on Dallas Watts in East Toledo, Ohio. ... Detectives have said they are not treating the case as a hate crime.

Marion Barry's racist remarks.  Over the years, Marion Barry has said and done so many questionable things that the city whose politics he long dominated has become inured to his behavior.  But his racist remarks this week about Asian Americans — and his oblivious response — are too ugly to ignore.

Marion Barry and the Left's Hatred of Asian Entrepreneurs.  The disgraced former mayor of Washington, D.C., who was caught on tape in a 1987 crack cocaine sting, made an even bigger disgrace of himself and his city on Tuesday [4/3/2012].  Celebrating a Democratic primary victory, the city councilman attacked small businesses owned by "Asians" in his district.

The Democratic Party should shun the racist politics of DC crackpot Marion Barry.  Former Washington DC Mayor, Marion Barry, is back in the news.  He won a Democratic primary to seek re-election as a DC councilman last week and, in the middle of an incoherent victory speech, the 76-year old suddenly went a bit racist.  "We've got to do something about these Asians coming in, opening up businesses — those dirty shops," he said.  "They ought to go.  I'll just say that right now, you know.  But we need African-American businesspeople to be able to take their places, too."

A Death Bounty and an Attorney General.  One can be forgiven for wondering what level of New Black Panther Party (NBPP) thuggery is sufficient to warrant the attention of Florida law enforcement officials or, seemingly, the most myopic U.S. attorney general to ever head the Department of Justice.  On March 24th, New Black Panther Party leader Mikhail Muhammad offered a $10,000 bounty for the "capture" of Zimmerman and publicly stated that Zimmerman "should be fearful for his life."  Fellow Panthers distributed wanted posters calling Zimmerman a "child killer" and offering that bounty "dead or alive."  And in a mind-boggling rant during a conference call, Michelle Williams, Chief of Staff for the Tampa, FL branch of the NBPP, told Party members to get ready for a "race war."

A Psychologist Analyzes The President.  Today the Democrats have placed all their hopes in Obama.  But this man could put an end to their party.  The great majority of blacks voted for Obama.  Only a fool does not know that their support for him is racially driven.  This is racism, pure and simple.  The downside of this is that if Obama turns out to be the disaster I predict, he will cause widespread resentment among the whites.  The blacks are unlikely to give up their support of their man.  Cultic mentality is pernicious and unrelenting.  They will dig their heads deeper in the sand and blame Obama's detractors of racism.

Where are the "separation of church and state" people now?
 Black power: NAACP seeks 1 million new teen voters.  If the NAACP, black colleges and African-American churches get their way, there will be an additional 1 million black 18-year-olds flooding the nation's voting stations to presumably vote for President Obama in the fall.  The civil rights group on Wednesday [5/9/2012] announced a 50-state initiative with the 7.5 million member National Baptist Convention, historically-black Clark-Atlanta University and radio personality Tom Joyner to register voters who turn 18 by Election Day.

Fox News' Decision Not To Fire Jehmu Greene Angers The Right.  As you may recall, on last Thursday's [5/3/2012] edition of America Live, Fox News contributor Jehmu Greene called the Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson a "bow-tying white boy" in response to Carlson's criticism of Elizabeth Warren's qualifications.  Many outraged conservatives have called upon Fox to fire Greene.

Fox News Won't Fire Black Racist Commentator.  Fox News contributor Jehmu Greene, a black feminist, says on her Twitter page that "love can build a bridge."  But racism, not love, was on display last Thursday when she called conservative Tucker Carlson a "bow-tying white boy."  Greene, a Democratic Party operative who was the national director of Project Vote, a group with close ties to the corrupt ACORN organization, has not offered a public apology.  There is no indication that her financial relationship with Fox News has suffered as a result of the racial outburst.


Black hate crimes

Concealing Black Hate Crimes.  Across the U.S., mobs of black youths are organizing on Facebook to loot stores and beat whites.  Yet none dare call the "flash mob" attacks hate crime, least of all the attorney general. ... To [Eric] Holder, blacks are the permanent victims.  But his department's own data say otherwise.  In most cases of interracial crimes, the victim is white and the perp is black.  Black criminals choose white victims 45% of the time, while whites victimize blacks 3% of the time.  More than twice as many whites are murdered by a black than cases of a white murdering blacks.

The lack of coverage over horrific black-on-white killings in America's Deep South.  It was the kind of crime that strikes terror into the hearts of parents everywhere.  A bright young couple were carjacked after a Saturday night date and murdered in the most brutal way imaginable.  Christopher Newsom, 23, was tied up and raped, shot in the back of the head and then dragged to a railway track and set on fire.  His girlfriend, 21-year-old University of Tennessee student Channon Christian's fate was even more horrific.

Woman beaten on bus.  As Sarah Kreager, 26, tried to sit down on a Baltimore City bus Tuesday, police say, a middle-schooler told her she couldn't.  When she attempted to take another seat, a middle-schooler wouldn't let her.  Finally, according to police, Kreager just sat down.  She was "immediately attacked" by nine students — three females and six males — from Robert Poole Middle School. … The suspects in the incident are black.  The victim is white, according to the police report.

The Editor says...
 If the colors were reversed, this would be called a hate crime and Al Sharpton would be all over it.

Here is an update — and just as I suspected ...
 Hate crime charges rejected.  Prosecutors in Baltimore have decided not to charge the nine middle school students accused in the beating of a 26-year-old woman on a city bus with a hate crime as a judge postponed their trial yesterday until Jan. 31.

Is A New Civil Rights Movement on The Horizon?  The national media has not seen fit to report the instances cited above as reverse racism or as hate crimes against white people.  Very often you hear black people simply say "it's our turn."  However, the people who were killed, the people who were fired, and the students who were abused were white and the perpetrators were black — these were in fact race crimes, and to call them anything but hate crimes would be plain silly.

Black Racism:  The Hate Crime That Dare Not Speak Its Name.  While the federal government rushes to Los Angeles to investigate an incident in which a handcuffed youth was slammed into the hood of a car and punched by an officer, a pall of silence still blankets the horrendous racial murder of four young people whose murderers are now on trial.  The difference in the responses to these two stories can hardly be attributed to anything other than the skin color of the perpetrators and the victims involved.  Apparently the sexual torture and brutal executions of four promising youngsters is of no interest to the nation's moral guardians, because the victims happen to be white.

"Hate Crimes" :  A One-Way Street?  If a white commits a violent crime and the victim is a minority, that is by definition a "hate crime" and worthy of front-page headlines, complete with lead stories on the national TV news shows.  On the other hand, if a minority commits a violent crime and the victim is white, that does not make it beyond the local media.

For example:
Schoolboy Kicked Unconscious Over Confederate Book:  A 13-year-old Houston boy who had checked out a book about Robert E. Lee was kicked in the head and sent unconscious to the hospital, a Southern heritage organization reported.  The boy's mother and lawyer believe the actions of government school officials set the stage for the attack.

Why It's OK to Hate White People:  It's the last and only acceptable prejudice.  Racial identity is simply forbidden to whites in America and across the entire Western world.  Black children today are hammered with the idea of racial identity and pride, yet racial pride in whites constitutes a grave evil.

The Hate Crimes That Weren't.  The public discourse on Islam and terrorism is largely dominated by self-important blowhards who are wrong and wrong again, wrong consistently, and yet are never called to account and are called upon as "experts" again and again.

More proof that blacks have immunity from hate crime prosecution:
 Is 'white boy' a slur?  It sure isn't a compliment.  Is "white boy" a racial slur?  Judging from some of the debates that have occurred over the use of "white boy" by African Americans, I'd say the description is certainly heading in that direction. … I'm bringing this subject up because of what happened to Ryan Rusch, the 14-year-old Beverly boy who was robbed and badly beaten, allegedly by three black youths. … One of the juveniles apparently told police that Rusch was beaten and robbed because he was a "goofy-looking white boy," and police are continuing to investigate the incident as a "hate crime."  So far, the Cook County state's attorney's office has rejected charging the teens with a hate crime.

Injury Fire At West Chester Business Was Arson, Hate Crime Suspected.  Investigators are looking into the possibility that the arson was a hate crime, because the business is owned by a Jordanian family.

But when the suspects turned out to be black, the "hate crime" aspect was dropped.

Police:  Arson Not Hate-Crime After All.  Investigators said hours after the damage was done, the manager, Musa Shteiwi, and his son Essa were preparing for another arson at the store.  Detectives say they had gasoline in the restaurant, when according to the son, the father lit a cigarette and caused an explosion.

Subway attack was to amuse, police say.  The four teenagers who ambushed Sean Patrick Conroy in a subway concourse Wednesday [3/26/2008] chose their victim at random and attacked him for no other purpose than to amuse themselves, police said yesterday. … Police yesterday discounted robbery as a motive, and said the youths apparently launched the attack on a lark.

The Editor says...
 If the victim had been black and the assailants had been white, the press would be having a "hate crime" field day.

Racial bullying roils a Philadelphia high school.  [Scroll down]  Inside is a cauldron of cultural discontent that erupted in violence last month — off-campus and lunchroom attacks on about 50 Asian students, injuring 30, primarily at the hands of blacks.

The Democrats' Fake Hate Crime.  On March 20th, something truly extraordinary happened.  On the eve of the health care vote, a group of black Democrat Congressmen (eschewing the private tunnels they usually use to cross from their offices to the Capitol) chose to walk en masse through a crowd of protesters, confident that the knuckledragging Tea Party goons they and their media pals have reviled for a year now would respond with racial epithets.  And then, when the crowd didn't, the black Congressmen made it up anyway.

Cleaver changes his 'I was spit on' story.  It's too late to affect the narrative about the tea party protest a couple of weeks ago, but indicative of the rank dishonesty involved in the smear.

Did State-Run Media Conspire on Racist Tea Party Attack.  The American Thinker did an outstanding job describing the events on March 20th, when democratic members of Congress in Washington DC were reportedly taunted by tea party activists with racial and sexual slurs.  It appears from the timeline of the events that this race-baiting story was in the works before the Black Caucus members paraded through the tea party crowd on Capitol Hill.

Did DOJ Try to Whitewash Black Panther Intimidation Case?  On Election Day 2008, two men — identified as members of the New Black Panther Party — stationed themselves outside a polling place in Philadelphia dressed in military clothing.  Videotape captured these two strolling back and forth in front of the polling place, with one clearly brandishing a nightstick.  A white poll watcher testified that he was called a "white devil" and a "cracker."  This poll watcher was told by one of the Panthers that he would be "ruled by the black man."

More about preferential treatment of the Black Panthers.

'Post-Racial' Racialism.  In the New Black Panthers case, Justice refused to protect the rights of white voters.  Two career prosecutors have now sworn that high-level Obama appointees running the Civil Rights Division scuttled an open-and-shut case of voter intimidation against nightstick-wielding black thugs at a Philly poll in 2008.  They also testified that the division has a do-not-prosecute policy if victims are white and offenders black.  If that bias weren't bad enough, check out what's going on in the division's housing and civil enforcement section.

The Left and Their 'Good Victims'.  A number of years ago, I was the victim of a brutal street crime.  Although I was left with a broken nose and two black eyes, I learned soon thereafter that I wasn't a "good victim."  A progressive friend, Fran, clued me in.  When I told her what happened, she said, "What you went through wasn't half as bad as what he has suffered."  Fran was referring to the fact that I am white and the assailant was black.  In other words, my suffering didn't matter.

The racist attack at McDonalds.  In all the reports of the vicious beating of a patron in a Baltimore McDonalds by other patrons while the staff looked on, not one I read mentioned the race of the victim, the attackers, the restaurant workers who helped the attackers escape or the other patron who managed to call the police.  Could it be because the attackers and the employees are black while the victim and telephone caller are white?

Video Shows Woman Being Beaten At Baltimore Co. McDonald's.  A woman is badly beaten inside a local McDonald's during the dinner rush with employees and customers looking on.

McDonald's goes into damage control.  The Baltimore County McDonald's at the centre of a scandal, after footage of the violent beating of a customer on its premises went viral, has sacked the employee who filmed the attack.  Rosedale franchise owner Mitchel McPherson made the announcement today, saying employee Vernon Hackett was no longer employed by the fast food chain.

Nearly everyone in this video is a criminal or an accessory to a crime.  It's cell phone video of a beating — two women beat a third, while the manager of the restaurant makes a show of trying to help but ends up standing around uselessly.  The beating goes on for several minutes, and toward the end, the women administering it attempt to drag their victim out into the parking lot.  Meanwhile, the victim is bleeding and begins to have a seizure.

The Obamas Silent in the Face of Race Atrocity.  For the average human being, it was not possible to watch the video of two black women beating the life out of a defenseless white woman at a McDonald's in Baltimore and not feel complete and total revulsion.  Adding to the horror was the knowledge that the black employees — one who only half-heartedly attempted to intervene, one who was filming the barbarism, and perhaps others not seen on the video — did absolutely nothing to save the white woman from her assailants.

'Hate crime' justice is no justice at all.  Must America's "hate crimes" brigade rush to judgment before all the facts are in?  Apparently they must, but that's exactly what you'd expect from people who want to criminalize thoughts, not actions.  And nothing illustrates the rush-to-judgment mentality more than what happened in a Baltimore-area McDonald's in mid-April.

Why attacks aren't ethnic intimidation.  Why are you hiding the truth?  Why won't you call them hate crimes?  Can you imagine the outcry if it were white kids attacking blacks?

Group Of Teens Randomly Attack Man On Kelly Drive.  Christopher Dean says he was biking along the drive around 6 p.m. on Sunday evening, July 31.  It was a sunny day and plenty of people were out.  He was between Boathouse Row and the Girard Avenue bridge heading west, he says, when he saw a group of four or five teenage boys standing by the side of the path.  Suddenly, one of them stepped out toward his bicycle and punched him in the face.

The Editor says...
 The article makes no mention of the suspects' race, but the incident took place in Philadelphia, and the victim was white, so obviously the thugs were all black.  Prove me wrong.  If the assailants had been white, the reporter would have made that very clear.

Police: No hate crimes in these State Fair arrests.  West Allis police are releasing new details about some arrests on the opening night of the Wisconsin State Fair, but say none of those incidents possessed elements that would prompt their prosecution as hate crimes.

I was beaten, taunted for being white, Bronx man says after subway attack.  A Bronx man was viciously assaulted and robbed on a subway train Sunday by four men who he says taunted him for being white.  Police confirmed they are investigating the assault and robbery of Jason Fordell, 29, but have not labeled it a hate crime.

Authorities Ignoring another Black-on-white 'Hate Crime'.  Like the three monkeys who see, hear and speak no evil, our authorities seem intent on ignoring the true nature of yet another black-on-white racial attack.  In the New York City subway this past Sunday, 29-year-old Jason Fordell was attacked by a group of black men who taunted him for being white.  Yet NYC police "are unsure" if the incident is a bias crime.  The problem started when Fordell transferred to a crowded 4 train at 42nd street, where he encountered four black men who began harassing him.

The Hate That Dare Not Speak Its Name.  In Kansas City on Wednesday, "two older teens" followed a "13-year old boy" walking home from school.  When the 13 year-old reached his front porch, the teens grabbed him, pinned his arms, poured gasoline on him, and set him on fire.  The boy managed to pull his shirt off and pat the fire out, and the parents rushed him to the local children's hospital.  As seen on local TV news, although not obvious in the accompanying article, the parents are white.  So is the boy.  "We were told it's a hate crime," the boy's mother told the reporter. ... Without the mother's reference to the hate crime, the viewer/ reader would have no sense that the attackers were likely of another, unspecified race.

Teen Set on Fire in Racial Attack; Media Silent.  [Scroll down]  Of course, if you scrutinize the few local outlets reporting the story and cut and paste, you can piece the picture together.  The Fox article I excerpted above provides only the vaguest hint of the attack's racial nature by quoting Mrs. Coon as saying that her family was told "it's a hate crime."  KCTV 5 did a bit better, reporting that the victim was white and the assailants black; however, while they quoted the attackers as stating "This is what you get," for some reason they omitted the "white boy" part.

How Derrick Bell Beat Martin Luther King Jr.:  [Scroll down]  Two years ago Newsweek ran a photo of a white baby asking the question, "Is your baby racist?"  While the media will gleefully charge 6-month-old white babies with racism, accusing them of bigotry for staring longer at photos of other races; it will go on ignoring the Allen Coon case, as it has ignored any number of similar and worse cases.

Sharpton, Jackson, Media Silent About Hate Crime in S.C..  Six black men assaulted a white man outside a restaurant in Seneca, S.C. on March 17 after insulting him with a racial remark.  Such was the severity of the beating and obvious racial motive that local police have referred the case to federal officials.  However, contrary to their usual reaction in such matters, the national media have yet to jump on the case, and civil rights leaders have said nothing about it.

No mention in this article of the word black.
 Man, 78, recounts assault by 6 youths in E. Toledo.  Mr. Watts said one of the boys delivered a single blow to the back of his head during the incident Saturday, knocking the victim to the ground.  At one point, the victim recalled being lifted from the ground so one of the boys could "drop-kick" him in the chest.  One boy, he said, put his foot on the back of the victim's neck, with another shouting, "Kill him."  While Mr. Watts was down the boys kicked him, over and over, shouting, "[Get] that white [man].  This is for Trayvon ... Trayvon lives, white [man].  Kill that white [man]," according to a police report.



The 2001 Cincinnati Riots:

ACLU approves landmark police deal:  A proposed settlement to a racial profiling lawsuit against Cincinnati police was approved today by the American Civil Liberties Union, the last party in the case to ratify the deal.

Vine Street:  What was the excuse this time?  There was no police shooting, no reverends shouting for justice this time — just 300 black people blocking Vine Street on Monday night [4/15/2002], pelting cars with rocks, bottles and eggs and yelling "get whitey."  Some cities would call that a riot.  Cincinnati didn't even call it a "disturbance."  The headline over a 3-inch story in the Enquirer the next day said, "Fight draws crowd; police close street."

The media's role in the Cincinnati race riots:  Could Cincinnati's race riots been averted? Perhaps — if the media had promptly and properly done their job.  Instead of citing 15 police killings of blacks, the media could have emphasized that in 11 of those previous shootings, the police were fully justified; that in two, officers were killed or maimed by the person they shot.  In only two were the police apparently mistaken.

Riot Ideology and De-Policing:  A Seattle policeman explained de-policing as:  "Parking under a shady tree to work on a crossword puzzle is a great alternative to being labeled a racist and being dragged through an inquest, a review board, an FBI and U.S. attorney investigation, and a lawsuit."  According to columnist John Leo, that's precisely what's happening in Cincinnati in the wake of the city's recent riots.  There's less patrolling to prevent low-level crimes.  Policemen await 911 calls.  As a result, crime soars.

"De-policing" may be the response to racial profiling study.

Blacks pay dearly for riots.

Police frustration brings slowdown:  It's been almost three months since Cincinnati was gripped by race riots after police shot a fleeing man who was wanted on 14 misdemeanor warrants.  The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that "Cincinnati police are so demoralized that they are ignoring some minor crimes and looking for jobs in the suburbs." Arrests are down 35%, and revenue from traffic tickets has fallen by about three-fourths.

Imagine the outrage if any of the above organizations had a white counterpart.  If you changed "Black" to "White", there would be no question that we were looking at a list of racist organizations.  They are organizations which presumably restrict membership to those of a specific race.  This is exactly the kind of thing that Martin Luther King opposed.


Whites need not apply.  It is "critical" that the Congressional Black Caucus remain an all-black organization, one of the CBC's founders has said in a strategy memo.

The Balkanization of College Campuses:  The New York Civil Rights Commission has put out a report which surveyed 50 prominent colleges and universities, [and] …shows these schools encouraging minority students to join ethnic organizations, to live in racially separated dormitories, and to participate in race-based cultural activities.  This is done in the name of "cultural awareness," which provide "support systems."

Black journalists jeer peer:  A conservative activist says that he was booed, jeered and called "the white man's boy" by a crowd of nearly 300 black reporters and media figures for speaking against reparations at last week's annual convention of the National Association of Black Journalists.

Get whitey:  Members of the Congressional Black Caucus want you to treat black Americans with respect and racially sensitive language.  And if you don't, they will scream racial epithets at you.

Disband The Black Caucus.  Next week, the Congressional Black Caucus will hold its 41st annual conference in Washington.  It should be its last.  The race-baiting group is alarmingly corrupt and out of control.

Sadly, more of the same from the Black Caucus.  Black America suffers disproportionately today because its leaders — uniformly liberal Democrats like our president — have been peddling failed big government policies for almost half a century.  Now, in the words of Barack Obama's former pastor, "The chickens are coming home to roost."

Obama to break ground for national black museum.  With eyes on his own personal legacy, President Obama revealed today that he will help in the groundbreaking of the nation's first African-American museum.  According to the White House, he will deliver the key remarks at the ceremony for the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture to be built on the National Mall.  The ground breaking takes place February 22.


Black-only holidays and events

This subsection could include such things as Martin Luther King Day, the San Francisco Black Film Festival, the Annual Black Boaters Summit, Umoja Fest, or the National Black Theater Festival, but I have chosen to focus on only three for now:  Kwanzaa, Juneteenth, and Black History Month.



Kwanzaa:

The Truth about Kwanzaa.  Blacks in America have suffered an endless series of insults and degradations, the latest of which goes by the name of Kwanzaa. ... There is no part of Kwanzaa that is not fraudulent.

Kwanzaa Is Wack: There, I Said It.  Kwanzaa is like a bad weave.  People might kinda like it, but we all know it ain't real.

Kwanzaa creator a secular kook, convict.  There are three aspects of Kwanzaa that most folks don't know.  First, most blacks DON'T celebrate the invented holiday.  Secondly, very few non-Americans even know of its existence and finally, its inventor is a kook and a violent convict.  Born Ron Everett, Maulana Karenga gave up what he calls his "European name" right about the time he began to adopt his Marxist, black nationalistic views in the 1960s, right around the time he invented Kwanzaa (Dec. 26, 1966), a week-long celebration focusing on African heritage and culture.

"Kwanzaa" was invented by a black criminal in California:  Kwanzaa is increasingly seen as an appropriate multicultural alternative to Christmas, a holiday considered too religious and "Eurocentric" for public schools.  But there is one not-so-insignificant problem associated with Kwanzaa.  While many teachers believe it to be an ancient African harvest festival, it was actually born, not in pre-colonial West Africa, but in 1960s southern California.  It is, in fact, the brainchild of African-American radical activist, academic and convicted felon Ron Karenga.

Kwanzaa Created by a Rapist and Torturer?  Each year, with the onset of Christmas, we are treated to another gauzy, fluff piece about how great Kwanzaa is by yet another PC spewing newspaper columnist. ... Several years ago, the Houston Chronicle got in the act with a piece by Leslie Casimir titled "Learning about Kwanzaa from the holiday's creator." ... Instead of merely celebrating this manufactured holiday Casimir amazingly made a hero of the rapist, race monger and violent thug who created it!

The Trouble With Kwanzaa:  Looking back on it, wearing kente cloth and knowing words in Swahili didn't make me any more authentically African than I already am.  For me, it all amounted to a superficial connection to Africa that, in its thinness, ultimately degraded the depth of black culture and our ancestry.

Kwanzaa: The Scientology of Holidays.  What do you get when you take a bad science fiction writer with a desire for immortality and add a lust for tax breaks?  Scientology.  What do you get when you take a neo-marxist felon and add a desire for black nationalism?  Kwanzaa.  What do both Kwanzaa and Scientology have in common?  They are fraudulent products of post-modern culture given legitimacy by a press hell bent on diminishing the Judeo-Christian heritage in the United States.

My Triumph Over Kwanzaa!  Is it just me, or does Kwanzaa seem to come earlier and earlier each year?  This year, I believe my triumph over this synthetic holiday is nearly complete.  The only mentions of Kwanzaa I've seen are humorous ones.  Most important, for the first time in eight years, President George Bush appears not to have issued "Kwanzaa greetings" to honor this phony non-Christian holiday that is younger than I am.

Kwanzaa was born of separatism and radicalism

A lump of coal for Kwanzaa.  As some know, this High Holy Week saw its birth 482 moons in the distant past, which means about forty years ago.  It was founded by the Great Prophet, Maulana Karenga, who was born in the cradle of religion itself, Maryland.  Like many deeply spiritual men, Karenga came from humble origins, christened Ron N. Everett and raised on a poultry farm.

Fleecing the flock:  Kwanzaa not only has no roots in Africa, it is not celebrated anywhere in Africa.  It is a complete fabrication from the mind of [Ron N.] Everett.  Everett said, "I came up with Kwanzaa because black people in this country wouldn't celebrate it if they knew it was American.  Also, I put it around Christmas because I knew that's when a lot of bloods would be partying."

The Kwanzaa Hoax:  [Maulana] Karenga — known chiefly as the inventor of Kwanzaa, a fake "African" holiday that he contrived in 1966 — has enjoyed a truly colorful career.  He was a prominent black nationalist during the 1960s, when his organization was involved in various violent operations.  He was sent to prison in 1971, after he and some of his pals tortured two women with a soldering iron and a vise, among other things.  He emerged from prison in 1974, and a few years later — in a maneuver that even The Kingfish might have found difficult — he got himself installed as the chairman of the Department of Black Studies at California State University at Long Beach.

Happy Kwanzaa.  On December 24, 1971, the New York Times ran one of the first of many articles on a new holiday designed to foster unity among African Americans.  The holiday, called Kwanzaa, was applauded by a certain sixteen-year-old minister who explained that the feast would perform the valuable service of "de-whitizing" Christmas.  The minister was a nobody at the time but he would later go on to become perhaps the premier race-baiter of the twentieth century.  His name was Al Sharpton and he would later spawn the Tawana Brawley hoax and then incite anti-Jewish tensions in a 1995 incident that ended with the arson deaths of seven people.

Another View of Ron Karenga:  It seems the founder of Kwanzaa wasn't any more ethical than those who sung its praises.  In fact, at the same time Al Sharpton was glorifying the new holiday, its creator was sitting in a California prison for torturing two black women who were members of the United Slaves, a black nationalist cult he had founded.  The cult leader Ron N. Everett went by the name Karenga and in the 60's took upon himself the title "maulana," which means "master teacher" in Swahili.  He was born on a poultry farm in Maryland, the fourteenth child of a Baptist minister.

Kwanzaa is for Pagans.  For decades, the media have given credence to many a self-appointed black "leader", no matter how outrageous.  Now they're doing the same with a pagan ritual called Kwanzaa, a so-called African-American holiday.  A made-up, anti-Christian observance, Kwanzaa is celebrated by blacks who profess Christ.  In our politically correct climate, even President George Bush, a believer in Christ, feels obligated to praise this ritual.

Kwanzaa:  a Christmas Substitute?  In spite of it being declared a non-religious holiday, Kwanzaa is being accepted in our children's schools, stores and etc., alongside the religious celebrations of Christmas and Hanukkah, sometimes leaving Christmas out altogether.  And for many in the Black church, Jesus Christ and the principles found in the Bible are not enough.  People are being urged to practice daily the seven principles of Kwanzaa (the Nguzo Saba) to better one's self and to seek intercession on the behalf of dead ancestors (ancestor worship).

Kwanzaa and the Church:  Karenga's official Kwanzaa website ... [says] "you should not mix Kwanzaa holiday or its symbols, values, and practices with any other culture."  That's in part because Kwanzaa was established as an alternative to Christmas which was viewed as a western holiday.  Christian worship would seem to violate the intent of Kwanzaa's promoters.  But if public schools and civic ceremonies are any indication, Kwanzaa is gaining equal standing as a third holiday alongside Christmas and Hanukah.  And most folks have no idea it is not an ancient African ritual, but rather the invention of a sixties activist.

Another Viewpoint:  Kwanzaa is in reality a non-Christian religious ceremony.  It is expressly promoted as not being religious but its Seven Principles are taken from directly Everett's personal religious philosophy, which he calls Kawaida (based on Ma'at, an ancient Egyptian mystic religion that Everett, the son of a Baptist minister, left the church to adopt as a young man).  Also, its key rituals and artifacts are modeled after non-Christian religious practices and ceremonies.  Scripture does not allow the Christian to participate in such.

Kwanzaa  was invented in 1966 amidst the madness of the multicultural '60s by a black radical stooge of the FBI, Ron Karenga, a.k.a. Dr. Maulana Karenga.  Karenga was a founder of United Slaves, a violent nationalist rival to the Black Panthers and a dupe of the FBI.

The "Merry Christmas!" Not "Happy Kwanzaa!" Campaign.  is designed to educate the American public about the phony "African-American" holiday known as Kwanzaa and to encourage the celebration of Christmas.  We want the public to know that Kwanzaa was designed to further separate Blacks from identifying with America.

The Truth About Kwanzaa:  Should Christians Celebrate It – Should Anyone Celebrate It?

Kwanzaa:  A Holiday From the FBI.  I believe more African-Americans spent this season reflecting on the birth of Christ than some phony non-Christian holiday invented a few decades ago by an FBI stooge.  Kwanzaa is a holiday for white liberals, not blacks.

Kwanzaa U.  Almost nobody in Africa has ever heard of Kwanzaa.  It is not an African holiday, and at best is a highly obscure Afro-American holiday.  The only education or experience children receive in regard to this "holiday" is through the education system, not from centuries – or even decades – of family tradition.

Just Say "No" to Kwanzaa.  Blacks should be outraged by attempts to stamp out Christianity from Christmas celebrations while accepting Kwanzaa as mainstream, says a black minister.  Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, founder and president of BOND, Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny, notes that while public school administrators and city officials attempt to ban nativity scenes, Christmas carols, candy canes and even Christmas trees from public places, Kwanzaa has been accepted as mainstream.

Kwanzaa — Racist Holiday from Hell.  In an earlier time, blacks held a strong faith in God.  But over the past 40 years, the black community has largely let God slip away.  Sure the community has maintained the outer trappings of religion, but the solid morality at its core is nearly gone.  Enter a God-hating black racist named Ron Karenga.  Born Ron Everett on a poultry farm in Maryland, Everett invented Kwanzaa in 1966, based on an African harvest festival (though it takes place during the Winter Solstice!), and celebrating the first Kwanzaa with his family and friends.

Kwanzaa, The Fraudulent Holiday, Take 2.  Kwanzaa isn't traditional at all.  It was invented in the late 1960s by convicted felon Ron Everett, leader of a so-called black nationalist group called United Slaves.  I use the word "so-called" because United Slaves' veneer of black nationalism was very thin; most of its members had been members of a South Central Los Angeles street gang called the Gladiators.

The True Spirit of Kwanzaa:  Kwanzaa is a product of violent black separatism, and it was designed to foment insularity and a sense of racial grievance.

Did you have a happy Kwanzaa?  There are few holidays we can actually attribute to one man's vision.  Kwanzaa is such a holiday — coined by Ron Karenga in 1966.

The Obamas' Kwanzaa Message.  As most readers here know, Kwanzaa was invented out of whole cloth in 1966 by Ron N. Everett, AKA Ron Karenga, founder of United Slaves, which fought with the Black Panthers over control of the African Studies Department at UCLA.  One of Mr. Karenga's achievements was torturing two women who were members of his cult and living in his house. ... For that session Karenga spent four years in prison, after which he found a berth in the Department of Africana Studies, California State University, Long Beach, where he still holds forth, a committed Marxist.

Fewer African-Americans are observing Kwanzaa — why?  No one can say for certain how many people celebrate Kwanzaa, which began in 1966 and has roots in the Black Nationalist movement.  Keith Mayes, author of "Black Power and the Making of the African-American Holiday Tradition" (Routledge, 2009) said that conservative estimates are that between 1 million to 2 million African Americans celebrate Kwanzaa.


Juneteenth:

Crowd attacks, kills man at Juneteenth festival.  An angry crowd beat a man to death after a vehicle he was riding in struck and injured a young girl, police said Wednesday.  Police believe 2,000 to 3,000 people were in the area for a Juneteenth celebration when the attack occurred Tuesday night.

The Editor says...
 Do you notice anything missing from this report?  Juneteenth celebrations are attended almost exclusively by blacks.  I wasn't there, but I'm guessing this is the story of a black lynch mob, with that one little detail omitted.

Crowd kills passenger of car that struck child.  A crowd of Juneteenth partyers outside an East Austin housing project turned violent with several beating a man to death after the car he was riding in apparently struck a small child. … "It's sad for the city," said Commander Harold Piatt, who leads the Austin Police Department's homicide division. … "It's not a hate crime," he said.  "It's not racially motivated in any way.  The assault has nothing to do with the (city-sponsored) Juneteenth celebration."

The Editor continues...
 The reporter describes a crowd of Juneteenth partyers at the beginning of the story, but the police say it had nothing to do with Juneteenth.  There is a new ingredient here that was missing from other news stories about this case Ñ it was a crowd "outside an East Austin housing project", which further guarantees that the perpetrators were black, yet the word "black" is not in the text of the story.  I'm just saying that if the colors were reversed, the news media would still be talking about a lynch mob and a hate crime.  As it is, the story disappeared within two weeks.


Black History Month:

Black History Month: The Left's Favorite Time of the Year.  Alas, another Black History Month... or as the left likes to view it, their annual "Opportunity To Exploit Race Month."  It is the month in which liberals attempt to convince us that race relations in America have progressed very little since the days of police unleashing dogs on civil rights activists.  Rather than presenting a balanced, honest look at black history, leftist schoolteachers and the media say America is still racist and whites should feel eternally guilty.

Black History Month — and the Black Heroes it Ignores.  Malcolm X didn't mince words.  "I'm not an American!" he sputtered, "America is a nightmare!  America practices slavery!  The white man is the common enemy!"  Naturally, Time Magazine heralded him during Black History Month.

Time to end Black History Month?  Obama's triumph, to some, means that we can all put other assumptions — like the need for Black History Month — behind us.  "I propose that, for the first time in American history, this country has reached a point where we are can stop celebrating separately, stop learning separately, stop being American separately," Detroit Free Press columnist Rochelle Riley wrote in a Feb. 1 column calling for an end to Black History Month.

Is Black History Month already history?  Well, it depends.  Abraham Lincoln ... was born 200 years ago on Feb. 12.  A hundred years later the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the nation's oldest and largest civil rights organization, was born on Lincoln's birthday.  A century later we have our first biracial president.  What a country.  Which raises a question I've pondered increasingly in recent years about the NAACP and Black History Month.  If they weren't around, would anyone notice?  A lot of people ask, now that Americans of all colors have put an African-American in the White House, how much more "advancement" do we need?

Poll:  End Black History Month.  The overwhelming majority of respondents to a Moultrie Observer online poll think Black History Month should be abolished. ... The poll was in response to an Associated Press story earlier this month that questioned whether the month had outlived its usefulness, considering the election of an African-American to the presidency.

Black History Month vs. Condoleezza Rice:
A friend of mine from Arkansas writes the following:  "Thought you'd appreciate this little anecdote.  A co-worker of mine has a daughter in public elementary school, here in Pine Bluff.  They're still doing Black History Month stuff, apparently, because the kids were told to come to class dressed as a famous (and presumably accomplished) African-American.  My co-worker's kid was told to come as Tina Turner.  My co-worker informed the teacher that her child would come as Condoleezza Rice instead.  The teacher refused to allow it, on grounds that Rice 'is for white people.'  Nice, huh?"

Morgan Freeman criticizes black history month.  Black History Month has roots in historian Carter G. Woodson's Negro History Week, which he designated in 1926 as the second week in February to mark the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln.  Woodson said he hoped the week could one day be eliminated — when black history would become fundamental to American history.

Black support for Bush drops to two percent.  If only blacks knew of the true history of the Democratic Party.  "Black History Month" has been observed for 29 years, yet many blacks know little to nothing about the parties' respective roles in advancing or hindering the civil rights of blacks.  How many blacks know that following the Civil War, 23 blacks — 13 of them ex-slaves — were elected to Congress, all as Republicans?  The first black Democrat was not elected to Congress until 1935, from the state of Illinois.  The first black congressional Democrat from a Southern state was not elected until 1973.
