What Is The Role Of Nation Of Islam In Police Shootings By Black Men?




[From article]
Edward Archer, a follower of Farrakhan's teachings, received international attention for gunning down a cop in Philadelphia in the name of Allah.
But Farrakhan got no props. Nothing.
Farrakhan has worked as hard as anyone to preach racial hostility and resentment against white people and cops in America. Just a few months ago, Farrakhan told a gathering at a packed Baptist Church about how he wanted to find 10,000 black men to "rise up and kill those who kill us."
[. . .]
Like the Philly gunman, Farrakhan is down with ISIS. He even brags about it: ISIS wants "America to send some troops back so they can send them back in body bags," Farrakhan said in October in a speech that Breitbart, but few others, followed.
[. . .]



Then Philadelphia happened: A black man, a devout Moslem, was wearing Moslem garb when he ambushed a white cop in a black neighborhood and shot at him 13 times. Hitting him thrice.
Soon after, Archer told the police he did it for Islam, in the name of ISIS. He did not mention Farrakhan, but he did not have to,
[. . .]
Archer's brother said he was angry at how white police treated black people. Apparently, they were picking on them all the time for no reason whatsoever.
That's Farrakhan talking. Not ISIS.
[. . .]
reporters ignored Black Lives Matter when they chanted, "What do want? Dead cops. When do we want them? Now" or "Pigs in a blanket. Fry 'em like bacon."
First in line to ignore Farrakhan was the new mayor of Philadelphia, who denied that the killer had anything to do with the religion of peace. "It is abhorrent," said Mayor Jim Kenney. "It does not represent the religion in any shape or form or any of the teachings."
[. . .]
But acknowledging everything Farrakhan did and said to encourage a shooter like Archer? Not a word.
Instead, one outlet after another trotted out its experts on ISIS to discuss whether this was some kind of new front in the international war on terror.

Insulting Black Male Conservatives




[From article]
Pretty much all of these personal attacks come from self-described open-minded, inclusive, minority-loving liberal types who cannot see the blatant hypocrisy of their own positions.

Black Super Star Shows Lack of Gratitude For Success in The United States




[From article]
Far too many Hollywood celebs are self-aggrandizing idiots when it comes to politics and culture. Their worldview makes them feel superior to the rest us. Neither facts nor common sense will change their minds. Ronald Reagan nailed it when he said, “It isn't so much that liberals are ignorant. It's just that they know so many things that aren't so.”
[. . .]
Black superstar actor Samuel L. Jackson said he wished the San Bernardino shooters “was another crazy white dude” rather than Muslims. Jackson said such attacks gives people “legitimate reason” to look at their Muslim neighbors and friends the way they look at young black men.
Mr. Jackson, I am black. I resent your assumption that Americans are racists looking for reasons to look cross-eyed at Muslims and young black men. Frankly, members of both groups (Muslims and blacks) have declared war on Americans.
[. . .]
The Black Lives Matter hate group which Mr. Jackson and his Hollywood homeys hold in high regard have declared open season on killing cops and “crackas” (white people).
[. . .]
In the minds of liberals, politically correctness trumps everything; even self-preservation instincts and life-experiences.
[. . .]
All the successful terrorist attacks maiming and murdering Americans were by Muslims who presented themselves as harmless neighbors, friends, and co-workers.
The Boston Marathon was bombed by the seemingly Americanized Tsarnaev brothers. They killed 3 and wounded over 260, many maimed for life.
For crying out loud, the Muslim terrorist at Ft. Hood was a major in the U.S. Army! Major Nidal Hasan, shot and killed 13 and injured over 30 while yelling, “Allahu akbar! (God is great!)”
The San Bernardino shooters were undercover Muslim terrorists. They left their company's Christmas party, returned later wearing
[. . .]
What is up with Jackson and other mega-rich black celebs constantly trashing white Americans whose patronage made them ga-zillionaires?
While promoting her movie, Selma, Oprah made the absurd claim that the 1950s persecution of blacks featured in her film still happens daily in America. With all due respect Oprah, your accusation is irresponsible, divisive, and insulting.
[. . .]
Black viewers did not make Oprah a megastar. White viewers made Oprah.
[. . .]
The truth is America is the greatest land of opportunity on the planet for all who choose to go for it.
[. . .]
Proverbs says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” In other words, belief is a powerful thing. So when black superstars tell black youths that America is forever racist and white cops shoot them on sight, they believe it. The lies become truth in their minds. Angry young blacks respond accordingly. (video has explicit language)
Mr. Jackson and other black celebs, your insistence on portraying America as a hellhole of racism towards minorities is irresponsible, divisive and hate-generating.

US Government Publishes Website Explaining to Black Men How To Rear Their Children




This is one practice predicted by George Orwell that the government would raise children not parents. The destruction of marriage is well on its way and the government is getting ready take over rearing children.

[From article]
If you're a black father reading this, have you ever wondered whether you should spend time with your kids? The federal government thinks this question stumps a lot of you, so it has set up a website called Fatherhood.gov to give you some clues to the answer. The site doesn't explicitly say "black," but most of the photos and literature for it feature black dads.
[. . .]
4) Another web page mentions something called the "National Park Service." Apparently this organization has parks all over America! A black father could find a park and take his child to one of them! (Though hopefully not a national park like Mount Rainier, where black people don't feel welcome!)
5) The website also suggests that black dads take their kids to something called "public libraries," which apparently have a lot of books – all of which are free! There is even a link that shows black fathers how to search for these "public libraries" in their neighborhoods.
6) There is an online form where black dads are invited to take a pledge to take care of their black children. Once they fill out the form, they are pledged to take care of their kids!
7) There is even a link to a National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse Hotline, where black dads can call the government to find out how to be responsible dads. Just try not to abuse your kids while you are waiting on hold!
[. . .]
Questions for discussion:
[. . .]



3) How do mothers know to care for their kids if there is no website instructing them?
[. . .]
6) If anyone else but the federal government produced such a patronizing website for black people, how many seconds would it take for him to be labeled as racist?
7) Which is worse: the epidemic of single parenting in the black community or the federal government thinking it can be fixed by giving irresponsible black dads a website to teach them how to feel affection for their kids?
[. . .]
Thomas Lifson adds:
The sad truth is that this campaign is probably necessary. We can’t openly discuss the problems with contemporary black culture without being called racists. So the federal government ends up patronizing black males.

No Evidence Black Men Are Killed Disproportionately To Rate Of Crime And Rate Of Threatening Police




[From article]
Walter Scott, a 50-year-old resident of North Charleston, South Carolina, was stopped by a local police officer for driving with a broken taillight. Scott bolted from his Mercedes Benz and ran off—actions captured by the police cruiser’s dashboard camera. When a cell-phone video shot by a bystander starts up several moments later, police officer Michael Slager has caught up to Scott in a grassy field and has already used his Taser against him. Scott and Slager scuffle, before Scott runs away again. Slager unholsters his gun and fires eight rounds at Scott’s back, initially from a distance of half a dozen yards. Scott falls. He dies at the scene.
Since 2013, Scott had been wanted on an arrest warrant for $18,104 in unpaid child support.
[. . .]
Immediately after the bystander video was released, the North Charleston Police Department fired Slager and the local district attorney charged him with murder.
[anti police protesters] main lines of argument are the following: First, innocent minority men are routinely mowed down by the police; second, the police routinely lie about their encounters with minority men; and third, assertive policing in minority neighborhoods is the ultimate culprit behind the alleged epidemic of police homicides. None of these claims is borne out by the evidence.
We don’t know how many people police kill each year.
[. . .]
It’s not even known how many agencies report their police homicides to the FBI; one calculation puts that number at around 750, out of approximately 18,000 police departments.
[. . .]

The Bureau of Justice Statistics, using complex statistical sampling rather than actual reports of homicide, has estimated about 1,000 police killings a year from 2003 to 2009—a number that seems high in light of verified reports from actual agencies such as the New York Police Department.
Saying anything definitive about police shootings is therefore difficult. Historically, somewhat less than half of the 400 police homicides reported to the FBI each year have black subjects. This is consistent with the black crime rate. Blacks make up over half of all homicide perpetrators in the country; in 2013, they were 42 percent of all cop-killers, despite being merely 12 percent of the population. From 1980 to 1998, young black males murdered police officers at almost six times the rate of young white males.
[. . .]
Data from New York City, where the police maintain highly detailed records on officer use of force, match Kleck’s findings. In 2011, New York officers fired at 41 suspects and killed nine of them—an astonishingly low number in light of New York’s population (over 8 million) and the size of its police force (35,000 uniformed officers). Blacks were 22 percent of those fatalities; whites were 44 percent of police fatalities. Yet blacks were 67 percent of all suspects who fired at the police; no white suspect fired at the police. Moreover, blacks made up 73 percent of all shooting perpetrators in the city in 2011, according to the victims of, and witnesses to, those shootings, though blacks are only 23 percent of the population. Whites committed less than 3 percent of all shootings, though they are close to 35 percent of the city’s population.
[. . .]
The Michael Brown saga was a particularly public display of the routine civilian lying about police stops in the inner city. Actress Taraji Hensonrecently apologized to the Glendale, California, police for falsely claiming that the department racially profiled and mistreated her son during a traffic stop. Evidence discredited New York Times columnist Charles Blow’s claim that his son was abused by Yale University police.
[. . .]
There has been no more successful government program for saving black lives than assertive policing. In New York City, over 10,000 minority males are alive today who would have been dead had homicide levels stayed at their early 1990s level. And it was proactive policing that lowered the New York homicide rate.
[. . .]
every year more than 6,000 blacks are homicide victims, more than the number of white and Hispanic homicide victims combined, even though blacks make up only 13 percent of the national population. They are killed not by cops, but by other blacks. For that reason, the press ignores these killings.
[. . .]
On March 11 of this year, as protestors again converged upon the Ferguson, Missouri, police headquarters demanding the resignation of the entire department, a six-year-old boy name Marcus Johnson was killed a few miles away in a St. Louis park, the victim of a stray bullet fired in a dispute. There were no mass protests over his killing; Al Sharpton did not call for a Justice Department investigation.

Atlanta, GA Police Shoot Black Man, Who Was Acting Erratically, Dead




[From article]
This is at least the third African-American man to be shot dead by police since last Friday, who either was or seemed unarmed.
DeKalb County police have already faced protests after an officer shot dead a black man who had called 911 when his girlfriend was stabbed by an attacker in his apartment late last year, according to local media.
Alexander said he could “reasonably assume” the person was possibly suffering from mental illness, given his behavior. He declined to identify the victim, but the New York Times reported that he was 27-year-old Anthony Hill.
Alexander said the officer, who had been with the department for seven years, was equipped with a taser at the time of the shooting. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation would handle Monday’s incident, he said.
Police near Denver last Friday shot dead an unarmed man who was a wanted fugitive. On the same day, an officer in Madison, Wisconsin, shot dead a 19-year-old, prompting some 2,000 students to march in the state’s capital on Monday.

Black Wisconsin Teen Shot Dead By Police Had Armed Robbery Conviction, Mother Said He Was Never Violent



Tony Robinson is seen with his mother, Andrea Irwin, in this undated photo.

[From article]
The officer who killed Robinson, 12-year department veteran Matt Kenny, had used deadly force before, shooting and killing a man in 2007, the chief said.
Kenny was exonerated of any wrongdoing and even received a commendation, the chief said, adding that the incident was "concluded to be a suicide by cop" situation.
[. . .]
Robinson had a criminal history, according to the state of Wisconsin public records. These records were first reported by the Wisconsin State Journal newspaper.
[. . .]



The incident started when authorities got a call that a black male was yelling and jumping in front of cars, Koval said. Dispatchers identified him as Robinson, according to 911 audio obtained by WKOW.
A little later the dispatcher says, "Apparently Tony hit one of his friends, um no weapons seen."
About four minutes later, the dispatcher says, "I got another call for the same suspect at [the same address]. He tried to strangle another patron."
About 30 seconds later, an unidentified officer says, "Shots fired, shots fired."
When Kenny went to the apartment, he heard some commotion and forced his way in, Koval said.
"Once inside the home the subject involved in this incident -- the same one allegedly out in traffic and that had battered someone -- assaulted my officer," Koval said.
After that, according to the chief, "The officer did draw his revolver and subsequently shot the subject."

No Justice No Work; W.E.B. DuBois' Solution




[From article]
The final problem for all political and religious movements is what to do after you get to the Promised Land. You've defeated the enemy, you've conquered the land flowing with milk and honey. What next?
What's next is that the soldiers of the revolution should get a job, get married, and start a family. And forget all about millennial hope.
But usually they don't. Instead they get angry.
That's why blacks rioted in the aftermath of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Finally, they'd got to the Promised Land, and nothing had changed.
Fast forward to 2012 in Florida and 2014 in Ferguson, Missouri. We've elected the First Black President and nothing has changed.
Wouldn't you be just a teeny bit upset?

Ferguson: Life in the Promised Land
By Christopher Chantrill

[From article]
The Negro race, like all races, is going to be saved by its exceptional men. The problem of education, then, among Negroes must first of all deal with the Talented Tenth; it is the problem of developing the Best of this race that they may guide the Mass away from the contamination and death of the Worst, in their own and other races. Now the training of men is a difficult and intricate task. Its technique is a matter for educational experts, but its object is for the vision of seers. If we make money the object of man-training, we shall develop money-makers but not necessarily men; if we make technical skill the object of education, we may possess artisans but not, in nature, men. Men we shall have only as we make manhood the object of the work of the schools–intelligence, broad sympathy, knowledge of the world that was and is, and of the relation of men to it–this is the curriculum of that Higher Education which must underlie true life.
[. . .]
If this be true–and who can deny it–three tasks lay before me; first to show from the past that the Talented Tenth as they have risen among American Negroes have been worthy of leadership; secondly to show how these men may be educated and developed; and thirdly to show their relation to the Negro problem.

Black Manager At Paint Store Sues For Naming Paint Colors About Him


[From article]
Clinton Tucker, who managed online sales for Benjamin Moore, which is owned by the conglomerate Berkshire Hathaway, said that he was bothered by the names of several of the company’s paint colors, “Clinton Brown,” “Tucker Chocolate,” and “Confederate Red.”
“Being a black man named Clinton Tucker, the plaintiff found this to be extremely racially offensive,” reads the complaint, filed in Essex County Court.
[. . .]
On its website, Benjamin Moore describes “Tucker Chocolate” as “capturing the 1798 color requested by St. George Tucker for his home facing Courthouse Green, this deep brown is classic and understated.”

Gay Black New Yorker Says Group of Hasidic Jews Attacked Him at 4:30 AM

[From comments]
Jim Mannie December 10, 2013
He was so intoxicated that he doesn't remember what he was doing before the incident? Was he walking along minding his own business and these thugs just picked on him for no reason? BTW how did they know he was gay? Was he wearing a sign? Are Hassidics hanging out all night playing the knockout game?

Fred Davidson December 10, 2013
It was not a racial attack it was just the knockout game as they call it but since it involved one of their own as a victim now it is referred to as an attack. This is nothing more than a game according to media sources. Guess he just has to live with it like all other victims do.
