Similarly, the
statistical fact that African-Americans commit murder at a vastly higher per
capita rate than do white Americans is not something you are supposed to
mention in the press, but at least dissidents in the comments can cite a PDF issued by
the federal Bureau of Justice Statistic s back in
2011 that found that blacks were, per capita, 7.4 times as likely to be murder
offenders as whites, with whites, curiously, including almost all Hispanics.

THE DEPRAVED GHETTO BLACK CULTURE
IN AMERICA - Is it the world’s most violent subculture?
"Dr. Williams comments on another
reality: that the rate of black homicide and armed robbery as well as
other violent crimes are as is as much as 15–30 times more than
whites."
At long last, Rashaun Weaver has been arrested for the murder of Barnard College student Tessa Majors back on December 11 2019. Remember, the police had Weaver in custody but let him go [14-Year-Old Is Released Without Charges in Tessa Majors Case, by Edgar Sandoval, New York Times, December 26, 2019]. A second suspect, Zyairr Davis, 13, had already been charged—but in Family Court [Judge sets murder trial date for teen boy in Tessa Majors stabbing death, by Anthony M. DeStefano, Newsday, January 2, 2020]. A third suspect, also questioned but also released, is still free. This agonizing pace is the direct result of the race-whipped pro-crime policies of New York City Mayor Bill DiBlasio, which I predict may yet succeed in denying Majors justice. And it’s the tip of the iceberg: Soon it will not be possible to disguise that we’re headed back to the high-crime era of 1980s.
In Majors’ case, the New York City Police Department also did its part. Tellingly, as with the Knoxville Horror, depolicing had let Davis’ gang of muggers run amok in the area until they murdered her.
And, as the New York Post reported, Weaver
was on the lam for more than two weeks before cops nabbed him in the Bronx on Thursday. ... Investigators believe he may have stayed underground until his finger healed[Suspect may have killed Tessa Majors because she bit his finger: police sources, by Tina Moore, Khristina Narizhnaya and Laura Italiano, December 27, 2019]
But, of course, the NYPD has not arrested the accomplices who harbored him while he healed and charged them as accessories.
One understandable reason for law enforcement caution: The killers’ fans are politicizing the case, aiming to pull a new Central Park Five Hoax. They’ve already defamed the main detective [Detective involved in Barnard student Tessa Majors case faces allegations he falsified evidence in other cases, by Alec Snyder, CNN, December 23, 2019], and baselessly asserted that Davis’ confession was coerced because detectives “badgered” him [Lawyer Casts Doubt on Boy’s Statements About Murder of Barnard Student, by Jan Ransom, New York Times, December 17, 2019].
The police know that Bill de Blasio will not have their back. His New York is city of re-emerging super-predators—the term popularized during the 1990s by criminologist John J. DiIulio Jr. to describe the ever younger boys, mostly black, who were psychopathic crime machines. The Left demonized and misrepresented the concept, DiIulio got scared, and the problem was turned upside down. Now, black super-predators are “victims” [Return of the Super-Predators, by Brian Johnson, Jackson Free Press, August 30, 2006].
Not that de Blasio created this world. The architects are the black sperm donors who knocked up their girlfriends but disappeared when it came time to raise their children, and mothers who deliberately raised racist, violent felons [Who’ll Stop the Rain?, Nicholas Stix, Uncensored, June 15, 2008].
Of course, we have seen generations of dueling myths about it. According to the Left’s favorite myth, black criminals of all ages are innocent “victims of racism.” And Republicans claim credit for miraculous reductions in crime—which, in my opinion as a New Yorker, were themselves substantially mythical.
Thus during the mid-to-late 1990s, the Daily News and Newsday exposed one fake stat scandal after another, including the NYPD’s cooking the crime stats, but typically acted as if the different scandals were unrelated. Beginning in 1996, in a series of exposés, I showed the patterns [1996, 2002a, 2002b, 2004, 2007, 2011, 2012, 2012b, 2012c, 2012d, 2014a, 2014b]. Here’s another example:
The murder rate, muddled by the NYPD’s strange habit of ‘reclassifying’ dozens of murders whose precipitating violent incident took place years before, is roughly flat. But the city’s insistence that overall crime remains at record lows sounds increasingly more plaintive than boastful, as if this is the best we can do.[How ignoring crime, accident data caused three deaths in 10 days in NYC, by Nicole Gelinas, New York Post, last updated December 23, 2019]
Gelinas knows much more than she says, given her classic article on crime in New Orleans [Who’s Killing New Orleans?, City Journal, August 2005]. But in any event as NYPD officials were appointed police chiefs or got consultant gigs around the country, ordinary cops degenerated into professional liars, and manufactured fakestats, and with them the rule of crime spread.
That’s how murders committed by blacks became “accidental deaths” or “suicides,” and first-degree and aggravated attempted rapes became “trespassing,” as these three stories show:
- Gloria Cadet Case: NYPD Gets Caught Hiding a Murder (Again), Nicholas Stix, Uncensored, September 16, 2012;
- NYPD Didn't Do Its Job in Case of German Student Killed by L Train: Family, DNAInfo, by Aidan Gardiner and Murray Weiss, December 5;
- NYPD Tapes 3: A Detective Comes Forward About Downgraded Sexual Assaults, by Graham Rayman, Village Voice, June 8, 2010.
(In contrast, however, by-the-book, justifiable homicides in which cops defend themselves are now “murders.” Of course, this discourages honest policing even more).
Observers such as Heather Mac Donald had only two possible explanations for the (supposed) crime reduction: stop-question-frisk and “broken windows” policing, which attacks low-level, “quality-of-life” misdemeanors (panhandling, fare evasion, public urination and public drinking).
But I don’t buy it.
De Blasio all but ended stop-question-frisk, which had taken thousands of guns off of New York’s streets. And “broken windows policing” was sabotaged from the get-go. Judges routinely threw out quality-of-life charges, while prosecutors often threw them out before they ever reached court. [Letter From New York City | Crime Stories, Chronicles, August 1996]
Under de Blasio, the city’s criminals enjoy criminal amnesties that were expressly cooked up for blacks and Hispanics under “disparate impact” sophistry. Another one is reportedly coming soon [A criminal justice reform would give thousands a clean slate — if only they would apply, by David Brand, Brooklyn Daily Eagle, November 25, 2019]. Amnesties were already institutionalized no later than the 1980s, by the way. A misdemeanant would get an ACD (adjudication in contemplation of dismissal), help clean a city park for a couple of days, go six months without being re-arrested, and the arrest would be expunged.
De Blasio also conceived a free crime program for drug criminals over 40 [Narcotics cops ordered to stop arresting suspects over 40, by Daniel Prendergast, Shawn Cohen and Jamie Schram, New York Post, May 20, 2015]. And he all but eliminated most school discipline. With his blessing, black and brown thugs can now curse teachers, engage in violence, and block all education.
Similarly, New York State has just created a felons’ paradise for black and brown thugs through “criminal justice reform,” whereby bail has been virtually ended so that thugs can commit more crimes more quickly [New York bail reform under fire amid wave of anti-Semitic attacks, by Ronn Blitzer, Fox News, January 2, 2020]. According to de Blasio, the wave of anti-Semitic attacks by blacks is the fault of “white nationalists” and President Trump [Latest anti-Semitic attacks make it clear: Hatred of Jews doesn't just come from white supremacists, by Beth Bailey, Washington Examiner, December 30, 2019].
Black New York Attorney General Letitia James’ contribution was to demand that the NYPD cease arresting black farebeaters, who practically have a monopoly on the crime.
Even when the city or a precinct admits, as my area’s did in November, 2018, that two of the seven “index crimes,” felony assault and burglary, have increased, they insist “that a decrease in crime contained a surge of unpleasant incidents this month” [Assaults Continue Despite Crime Decrease, by Ray Vann, The Wave, November 30, 2018].
Citywide, the NYPD told a similar story three months later. Homicides jumped 37 percent and rapes 19 percent early last year. Yet “despite the increase in murders,” the Daily News reported, “the city’s overall crime rate was down 11% in February and down 9% for the year” [Homicides in NYC up 37% so far this year, driven by stunning 50% spike in February, by Rocco Parascandola and Graham Rayman, March 4, 2019].
While it is mathematically possible for crime overall to go down as two felony index crime rates are exploding, it is highly unlikely.
(The index crimes are murder, rape, robbery, assault, burglary, grand larceny and grand theft auto. The FBI also counts arson).
How did the other five categories decrease so much that crime went down overall? In the real world, a crime explosion hits all sectors. The same felons who rape and murder also rob and burglarize, often at the same time.
In 2010 an NYPD officer named Adrian Schoolcraft exposed the truth and paid the price for it. He recorded compromising conversations and complained to his superiors about the fakestats. Next thing he knew, the brass had cops break down Schoolcraft’s apartment door, kidnap him, and force him into a psycho ward for six days. Eventually, the NYPD paid Schoolcraft a $60,000 settlement.
Graham Rayman of the lefty Village Voice, now a crime writer at the Daily News, wrote a series and a book about Schoolcraft and the fakestats. But nothing has changed.
Rayman’s offering in the Voice opened with a money quote from a supervisor:
“You know, I’ve been doing this over eight years. I’ve seen a lot. The lengths people will go to try not to take a report, or not take a report for a seven major [crime]. So nothing surprises me anymore.”[The NYPD Tapes: Inside Bed-Stuy’s 81st Precinct, by Graham Rayman, May 4, 2010]
It might not have surprised the supervisor or even NYPD’s brass, but it likely surprised taxpayers who expect the cops “to protect and serve.”
While we’ve all heard about the low-crime renaissance of the city beginning in the mid-1990s under Rudy Giuliani, I’m here to tell you it never happened. New York, despite what de Blasio and his predecessor Mike Bloomberg say, is not the safest big city in America.
Tessa Majors would tell you, too, but she can’t.
The super-predators who now rule the streets for their friendly monarch, Bill de Blasio, saw to that.
And no amount of fake stats will be able to hide what’s coming next.

Rep. Ilhan Omar and the New York Times’ favorite hate group
targets Jews.
December
12, 2019
Daniel
Greenfield
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom
Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left
and Islamic terrorism.
The New
York Times called them "sidewalk ministers" who practice
"tough love." The paper quoted Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty
Law Center who described them as victims of racism and claimed that they were
non-violent.
The Washington
Post, in its own puff piece on the Black Hebrew Israelites, also
falsely described them as non-violent, and concluded that, "Israelite
street preaching in parts of D.C., Philadelphia and New York is commonplace, a
familiar if odd accent to city life."
The
odd accent to city life in Jersey City came amid a hail of bullets as two
members of the racist black nationalist hate group opened fire in the JC
Supermarket. Despite initial claims by the media and the authorities
that the Jewish market had not been targeted, David Anderson and Francine Graham
ignored passerby on Martin Luther King Dr, to get to the store and kill as many
Jewish people as they could.
When
the shooting had ended, Moshe Hersh Deutsch, a yeshiva student who was known for
helping distribute food packages to the needy, Mrs Leah Mindel Ferencz, a mother of 3 who
helped her husband run the grocery store, and Miguel Jason Rodriguez, the
father of an 11-year-old daughter and a parishioner at an Assemblies of God
church, were all dead.
Anderson,
who left behind anti-Semitic and anti-police writings, had also killed Detective Joseph Seals, a father of 5, and wounded Officer Ray
Sanchez and Officer Ferenella Fernandez.
The black nationalist terrorist had hated cops and Jews. He
managed to kill both.
The
media whitewash of the racist Black Israelites had come during the Covington
Catholic case when the Washington Post, among other papers, had
falsely blamed the pro-life students for a confrontation that actually began
when members of the nationalist hate group had begun calling them, “crackers,”
“faggots,” and “pedophiles.” An African-American pro-life student was called
the ‘n-word’.
Rep.
Ilhan Omar, who has her own history of racism and anti-Semitism, falsely claimed that the Covington Catholic students
were “taunting 5 black men.”
The New
York Times equivocated that members of the hate group “use blunt and
sometimes offensive language, and gamely engage in arguments”. The typical
“offensive language” and argumentative style of the Times’ second
favorite racist hate group involves shouting racist and anti-Semitic slurs at
people.
David
Anderson, the Kosher supermarket shooter, had a whole YouTube playlist of such
ugly incidents. In one video, a Black Israelite preacher shouts, “Satan is in
you” at a Jewish man. “You stole our history. You are pretending to be us. The
messiah, who is a black man, is going to kill you.”
Gamely
indeed.
In
another video, a Black Israelite preacher calls a Jewish teen a member of the
“Synagogue of Satan”. “We want our book back and we want our land back,” the
preacher demands. “Go back to Russia.”
You
can see why Rep. Ilhan Omar might have felt called to defend the racist hate
group.
“They
move you all over the earth, but we know who you are. You are part of the
Zionist deception. You go among the earth to spread Zionism, which is really
Catholicism,” he rants. “Witchcraft and sorcery.”
Such
statements may seem deranged, but they’re typical of the supremacist theology
of the hate group.
Previous
incidents involving the hate group have been even uglier with a video that
doesn’t appear on Anderson’s playlist showcasing a Black Israelite preacher shouting,
"The Holocaust is a damn joke! Heil Hitler!" A documentary shows
another preacher standing on a prone white man and declaiming, "We're
coming for you, white boys. Negroes are the real Jews. Get ready for war.”
It’s
no wonder that Tom Metzger a KKK leader and the founder of the White Aryan Resistance, had described them, as "the black counterparts of
us".
And
yet, the New York Times concluded its whitewash of the hate
group with a closing quote by Todd Boyd, a professor of race and culture at
UCLA, which claimed that, "To many black people, Hebrew Israelites are a
harmless part of their communities."
No
doubt to many white people the KKK are a harmless part of their communities.
Racist hate groups are the bigger problem for people who aren’t a member of
their race.
"More
alarming to many African Americans," the UCLA professor of race had
argued, is "seeing a white guy in a ‘Make America Great Again’ hat."
The
dead at the JC Supermarket would have liked to have seen a MAGA had instead of
black coats.
The
whitewash of the Black Israelite hate group was the work of John Eligon, a reporter hired by the New
York Times to report on race, who had previously defended Rep. Ilhan Omar’s anti-Semitism, and
had injected black nationalist sympathies into his writing. The Washington
Post’s whitewash of the hate group was the work of Sam Kestenbaum, a
contributing editor at the radical leftist The Forward. The
anti-Jewish paper has a long history of whitewashing and defending
anti-Semitism by its political allies.
But
the problem is much bigger than just the media’s whitewash of the Black
Israelites.
The
FBI’s warning about the threat of “black identity extremism” was met with a
wave of attacks by the media. A New York Times op-ed
warned of "The F.B.I.’s Dangerous Crackdown on ‘Black Identity
Extremists’" The Intercept, a notorious radical hate site
funded by Franco-Persian eBay billionaire Pierre Omidyar, joined in. "Why
the FBI's "Black Identity Extremist" Classification Is
Dangerous," Teen Vogue had argued. The Nation had
warned of a "Coming War on 'Black Nationalists'".
Rep.
Karen Bass, a militant anti-Israel Democrat, despite representing a partially
Jewish district, attacked former Attorney General Jeff Sessions, the FBI, and
other officials over the BIE category. This was after the murder of 4
Dallas police officers by Micah X. Johnson and Kori Ali Muhammad's targeted
killing of three white men in Fresno.
“I don’t
believe black identity extremists exist, and I believe the FBI should retract
the document and send out a document throughout law enforcement saying that
black identity extremists do not exist,” Bass had ranted.
This
year, under pressure, the FBI jettisoned the BIE term. Just in time for the
Kosher market shooting.
The
FBI report helps police officers prepare for coming threats. By undermining the
warnings about black nationalist violence, Rep. Bass, the New York
Times, the Washington Post, and every media activist and
politician who went to bat for black nationalist racists sabotaged police
preparedness.
And
they have blood on their hands.
The
media is already embracing the familiar narrative about lone wolves and
individual instability. That’s the same story we hear after acts of violence by
members of a movement that it is politically allied with.
Hate
groups, whether it’s the KKK or the Black Israelites, or campus hate groups
like the Groypers or SJP, should be exposed with clear and honest facts about
who they are and what they believe.
When
political activists and media whitewashes cover up the truth for partisan
reasons, people can die.
A
father of five with a badge, a mother of three running a grocery store, a man
working to support his daughter, another man delivering food packages, did not
have to die. If the truth had been told about the Black Israelites, they might
still be alive today. Instead the media lied and they are gone.
Truly
standing up against racism and anti-Semitism means jettisoning partisan agendas
for the truth.
Rep.
Karen Bass, the New York Times, The Intercept, the
ACLU, and others colluded to tie the hands of the FBI and local police because
they see black nationalists like Anderson as allies in their cause.
After
the attack, a representative from Americans
Against Anti-Semitism, an
organization which, unlike the ADL, actually opposes hate wherever it comes
from, took a camera to record local reactions.
"I
blame the Jews. We never had a shooting like this until they came," one
resident bellows. “My children are stuck at school because of Jew shenanigans.”
"Four
of y'all are dead right? That's great. If they was there, they got shot dead,
that's great," a man says.
"Get
the Jews out of Jersey City," someone else shouts.
There’s
nothing extraordinary about this. It’s the everyday hate that we can’t talk
about. The hate that the media is quick to cover up. If you want to understand
why children are beaten on Brooklyn streets and why a Kosher supermarket was
shot up, it’s because we aren’t allowed to talk about it.
Evil
needs silence and complicity. The media and Democrat politicians are guilty of
both.
The
Ferencz family, Moishe and Leah, opened a small market on Martin Luther King
Dr. They filled the narrow aisles with bread, juice, candy, milk, and the
household staples you need when time is short.
They
worked late hours.
And
then, while Moishe was praying next door, the black nationalist bigots whom
the New York Times, the Washington Post, Rep. Ilhan
Omar, and Rep. Karen Bass had defended, killed her husband.
That
is the story that the media won’t tell. But it must be told.
WINDOW INTO THE DEPRAVED BLACK SUBCULTURE
Heather Mac Donald
Public safety
The Social Order
As for
interracial violence generally, blacks disproportionately commit it.
Between 2012 and 2015, there were 631,830 violent
interracial victimizations, excluding homicide, between blacks
and whites,
according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. Blacks, who make up 13
percent of the U.S. population, committed 85.5 percent of
those victimizations, or 540,360 felonious assaults on
whites, while
whites, 61 percent of the population, committed 14.4 percent, or 91,470
felonious assaults on blacks. Regarding threats to blacks from the police,
a police officer is 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black male
than an unarmed black male is to be killed by a police officer.
Anti-cop
activist Shaun King says that his involvement in the campaign around the
Jazmine Barnes murder was not driven by reports that a white man had killed the
seven-year-old girl, who was gunned down in Houston on December 30. According
to Barnes’s mother and 15-year-old sister, the white driver of a pickup truck
had pulled up next to the family’s car before opening fire. The accusation set
off a frenzy of hate-crime allegations and blanket coverage by the New York
Times. King offered a $100,000 reward to anyone who located the suspect.
As
it turned out, Jazmine Barnes was killed by two black men, who opened fire on
her mother’s car because they thought that they were targeting enemies of their
gang. King passed along a tip about the real killers to the Houston police, and
now says that he merely “internalized the pain of the family and tried to
search as if it were my own child who was killed.” Race, in other words, had
nothing to do with his activism.
It’s
worth remembering, though, the many other black children who have been victims
of drive-by shootings without leading King to launch a national crusade.
A
sampling: in March 2015, a six-year-old boy was killed in a drive-by shooting
on West Florissant Avenue in St. Louis, as Black Lives Matter protesters were
converging on the Ferguson, Missouri, Police Department to demand the
resignation of the entire department. In August 2015, a nine-year-old girl was
killed by a bullet from a drive-by shooting in Ferguson while doing her
homework in her bedroom, blocks from the Black Lives Matter rioting
thoroughfare. Five children were shot in Cleveland over the 2015 Fourth of July
weekend. A seven-year-old boy was killed in Chicago that same weekend by a
bullet intended for his father. In Cincinnati, in July 2015, a four-year-old
girl was shot in the head and a six-year-old girl was left paralyzed and
partially blind from two separate drive-by shootings. In Cleveland, three
children five and younger were killed in September 2015, leading the black
police chief to break down in tears and ask why the community only protests
shootings of blacks when the perpetrator is a cop. In November 2015, a nine-year-old
in Chicago was lured into an alley and killed by his father’s gang enemies; the
father refused to cooperate with the police. All told, ten children under the
age of ten were killed in Baltimore in 2015; twelve victims were between the
age of ten and seventeen.
In
2016, a three-year-old girl in Baltimore was partially paralyzed by a drive-by
shooting. In Chicago in 2016, two dozen children under the age of 12 were shot
in drive-bys, including a three-year-old boy mowed down on Father’s Day 2016
who is now paralyzed for life and a ten-year-old boy shot in August; his
pancreas, intestines, kidney, and spleen were torn apart. A Jacksonville
22-month-old was shot to death by a passing car last June. In September, three
men killed three-year-old Azalya Anderson in a drive-by in Sacramento, and a
week before Christmas in Bridgeport, a 12-year-old boy was shot and killed on
his way home from the candy store in a drive-by shooting.
Why
did King let these shootings of black children go by without responding as he
did to Jazmine Barnes’s murder? Could it be because the perpetrators were
black? You could end all white shootings of black children tomorrow and it
would have zero effect on the death rate of black children by homicide, because
such white-on-black shootings are extremely rare. Moral abominations, like the
2015 Charleston church massacre by white supremacist Dylann Roof, are
aberrations that belong to the outermost lunatic fringe of American society.
The country’s revulsion at the Charleston carnage was immediate and universal,
resulting in a movement to banish the Confederate flag, embraced by Roof as a
white supremacist symbol, from official sites.
If
Shaun King and other Black Lives Matter activists really want to save black
children from the trauma of urban violence, they should put their efforts into
rebuilding inner-city culture—above all, by revalorizing a married father as
the best gift a mother can give her child. Fantasies about white violence
against “black bodies” are a distraction from what is actually happening on
American streets.

Walter Williams tackles the elephant in the room on crime
Dr. Williams is a well
known conservative economist and longtime John Olin Chair faculty at George
Mason University in eastern Virginia, author of 12 books and syndicated
columnist. In the past, he has been substitute host on the Rush
Limbaugh radio program. He is almost like family to me, and I have
benefited from his essays and books over the years. This past week,
I saw and read his essay on disparities in
crime rates among races that was picked up by Military in its October 2019
issue. What got Dr. Williams going was the article by Matthew
DeLisi of Iowa State U and John Paul Wright of the U of Cincinnati titled
"What Criminologists Don't Say and Why."
Dr. Williams confirms
that the writers are right about the liberal tilt of criminologists — "If
criminologists have the guts to even talk about a race-crime connection, it's
behind closed doors and in guarded language. Any discussion about
race and crime ... can mean the end of one's professional career."
Dr. Williams points out
teen black-on-white predatory behavior — chronicled in detail by many,
particularly Colin Flaherty, whose investigative
reports appear frequently (more than 100) at
American Thinker — cannot be reported, mentioned, or considered by the media,
politicians, criminologists, commentators, politicians, even law
enforcement people without risking being called racist, the easy epithet used
to enforce a ban on talking about the realities of racial disparities in crime
and the increasingly violent nature of black violence against whites — the
knockout game, polar bear hunting, flash mob violence against people and
property.
Referencing the Wright
and DeLisi report, Dr. Williams comments on another reality: that the rate of
black homicide and armed robbery as well as other violent crimes are as is as
much as 15–30 times more than whites, for example, and he points out the
silliness of criminologists' claims that mass incarceration rather than
criminality has decimated the black community. He favorably quotes
Wright and DeLisi when they say, "What they [criminals] did, in reality
was to prey on their neighbors."
Dr. Williams returns to a
theme he has explored many times before in this essay and commentary when he
points out that the black family of the past was two parents and stable, even
back to days of slavery, and that the black community was moral and
law-abiding. "The strong character of black people is
responsible for the great progress made from emancipation to today. ...
[T]oday's conduct among black youth wouldn't have been tolerated
yesteryear."
My regret is there aren't
enough Walter Williams and Thomas Sowell types to engage the nutty attitudes of
liberal chatterbox experts.

CITY
JOURNAL
BLACK
ON BLACK VIOLENCE Data,
of
crime and policing than this weekend’s demonstrations suggest.
The FBI
released its
official crime tally for 2016 today, and the data flies in the face of the
rhetoric that professional athletes rehearsed in revived Black Lives Matter
protests over the weekend. Nearly 900 additional blacks were killed in
2016 compared with 2015, bringing the black homicide-victim total to 7,881.
Those 7,881 “black bodies,” in the parlance of Ta-Nehisi Coates, are 1,305 more
than the number of white victims (which in this case includes most
Hispanics) for the same period, though blacks are only 13 percent of the
nation’s population. The increase in black homicide deaths last year comes on
top of a previous 900-victim increase between 2014 and 2015.
Who is killing these black
victims? Not whites, and not the police, but other blacks. In 2016, the police
fatally shot 233 blacks, the vast majority armed and dangerous, according to the Washington Post.
The Post categorized only 16 black male victims of police
shootings as “unarmed.” That classification masks assaults against officers and
violent resistance to arrest. Contrary to the Black Lives Matter narrative, the
police have much more to fear from black males than black males have to fear
from the police. In 2015, a police officer was 18.5 times more likely to be
killed by a black male than an unarmed black male was to be killed by a police
officer. Black males have made up 42 percent of all cop-killers over the last
decade, though they are only 6 percent of the population. That 18.5 ratio
undoubtedly worsened in 2016, in light of the 53 percent increase in gun
murders of officers—committed vastly and disproportionately by black males.
Among all homicide suspects whose race was known, white killers of blacks numbered
only 243.
Violent crime has now
risen by a significant amount for two consecutive years. The total number of
violent crimes rose 4.1 percent in 2016, and estimated homicides rose 8.6
percent. In 2015, violent crime rose by nearly 4 percent and estimated
homicides by nearly 11 percent. The last time violence rose two years in a row
was 2005–06. The reason for the current increase is what I have called
the Ferguson
Effect. Cops are backing
off of proactive policing in high-crime minority neighborhoods, and criminals
are becoming emboldened. Having been told incessantly by politicians, the
media, and Black Lives Matter activists that they are bigoted for getting out
of their cars and questioning someone loitering on a known drug corner at
2 AM, many officers are instead just driving
by. Such stops are discretionary; cops don’t have to make them. And when
political elites demonize the police for just such proactive policing, we
shouldn’t be surprised when cops get the message and do less of it. Seventy-two
percent of the nation’s officers say that they and their colleagues are now
less willing to stop and question suspicious persons, according to a Pew Research poll released in January 2016. The reason
is the persistent anti-cop climate.
Four studies came out in
2016 alone rebutting the charge that police shootings are
racially biased. If there is a bias in police shootings, it works in favor of
blacks and against whites. That truth has not stopped the ongoing demonization
of the police—including, now, by many of the country’s ignorant professional
athletes. The toll will be felt, as always, in the inner city, by the thousands
of law-abiding people there who desperately want more police protection.

Idiot conservatives were doing the idiot thing this week, screaming “racism!” in response to an old tape of former Mayor Michael Bloomberg defending stop-and-frisk, one of the policies that drove New York City murder rates down to Mayberry levels. They weren’t being ironic.
In the 2015 tape, Bloomberg makes the blindingly obvious point that if “95% of murders and murder victims are young male minorities”—as is true in New York City—then police should be questioning about 95% young male minorities.
To stop crime, he said, you "put a lot of cops where the crime is, which means in minority neighborhoods.”
Bloomberg further explained that frisking young black and brown men for minor crimes is how you keep guns off the streets generally: “And the way you get the guns out of the kids’ hands is to throw them up against the wall and frisk them. And then they start, they say, ‘Oh, I don’t want to get caught.’ So they don't bring the gun. They still have a gun, but they leave it at home.”
Does anyone with a functioning frontal lobe disagree with this? By pursuing the wacky idea of having cops frisk kids in high-crime areas for minor offenses like turnstile jumping, Mayor Rudy Giuliani cut the murder rate from more than 2,000 per year to about 600. No one thought it could possibly go any lower—and then Bloomberg got murders down to an unfathomable 300 or so per year.
Giuliani and Bloomberg did more for young minorities than all living Democrats combined. In New York City alone, at least 20,000 more black men are alive today than would be under the genius crime-fighting ideas of prior administrations (and The New York Times).
Unless liberal elites are pursuing a secret plan to reduce the black population by allowing young black men to kill one another (that would make a great movie by Jordan Peele!), stop-and-frisk is nothing to apologize for.
Well, guess what? Bloomberg apologized for it. He began his presidential campaign with a repudiation of his signature accomplishment in order to please a handful of black activists and a lot of white liberals. For that, he deserves the contempt of all men of good will.
Why not attack him for the gutless apology? Is Bloomberg sorry for saving so many black lives? Does becoming a Democrat make basic math incomprehensible? Is he a pandering coward? Can we trust anything he says?
But small-bore conservatives did what they always do: Give up winning a war in order to land a quick blow in a skirmish. They called Bloomberg’s earlier, logically insuperable point “RACIST!”
Great, so now conservatives are adopting the absolute worst aspect of liberalism—calling everything “racist."
As I wrote in 2016, when the media were going through their quadrennial demand that the Republican candidate for president “disavow” David Duke, these “racism” orgies never have anything to do with black people. It’s part of the Fabulous White People competition, where black people are the chips.
If anything, the urge to call other people "racist" has only gotten stronger since then, so I'll quote myself:
“Sad people with meaningless lives [are] suddenly empowered to condemn other people. I beat you in blacks yesterday; I'm going to beat you in women today. This is what makes them feel superior to other people, especially other white people. It's not about racism, sexism, homophobia, etc.; it's just a self-actualization movement for people with emotional issues."
Why are conservatives leaping into this game? For the teeny-tiny pleasure of taking a cheap shot at Bloomberg, they are endorsing the idea that anyone who 1) grasps basic math and 2) is opposed to gun crime is a “racist.”
Our entire public dialogue will soon be nothing but white people calling one another “racist,” as if we’re trapped in an eternal Democratic presidential debate.
At the New Hampshire debate last Friday night, Tom Steyer—hedge fund manager and Hero to Black People Everywhere—kept hammering Joe Biden about some “racist” remark made by South Carolina State Sen. Dick Harpootlian, a Biden supporter.
“One of the leaders of Joe Biden’s South Carolina campaign,” Steyer said, “made racist remarks about someone associated with our campaign.” Steyer then repeatedly called on Biden to “disavow” the remark and the man who made it. “Be on the right side,” he implored.
The story: Harpootlian had tweeted that another South Carolina Democrat, state legislator Jerry Govan, flipped his support from Biden to Steyer after being paid “almost $50,000” by the Steyer campaign. Calling Steyer “Mr. Moneybags,” Harpootlian concluded, “This is what happens when billionaires get involved ... They don't have to persuade anybody, they just buy them."
I’ve assembled a panel of black judges to rule on Harpootlian’s racism, and their response is: Keep reading. Get to the racism part.
Nope, that’s it! Govan is black, so pointing out that Steyer paid him $50,000 and got his endorsement is “racist.”
I would have gone with “anti-Semitic” myself, but what do I know? I guess I’ll check with the conservative “racism” fighters!

Buy Second City Confidential: The Black Experience in Chicago by Paul Kersey and James Kirkpatrick
What happens when a black judge in Chicago, who happens to be the chief judge of Cook County, lies about the consequences of reducing or eliminating monetary bail for many defendants (which he lamented in 2017 disproportionately impacts black and brown criminals)?
Nothing.
Because we live in a nation where black people have no agency, and structural racism/implicit whiteness/white privilege is the true evil.
Bail reform analysis by Cook County chief judge based on flawed data, undercounts new murder charges, Chicago Tribune, February 13, 2020Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans for months has defended the bail reform he ordered by citing an analysis produced by the office he runs.His report, released in May, noted that Chicago saw no increase in violent crime after judges began implementing those reforms by reducing or eliminating monetary bail for many pretrial defendants. Far more of these defendants were released from custody, yet only “a very small fraction” were charged afterward with a new violent offense, the report states.But a Tribune investigation has found flaws in both the data underlying Evans’ report and the techniques he used to analyze it — issues that minimize the number of defendants charged with murder and other violent crimes after being released from custody under bail reform.One central conclusion of Evans’ analysis was that only 147 felony defendants released from custody in the 15 months after bail reform went on to be charged with new violent crimes, or 0.6% of the total. He has called this a “rare” occurrence.But Evans’ definition of violent crime, while acceptable to criminologists under some circumstances, was limited to six offenses and excluded numerous others, including domestic battery, assault, assault with a deadly weapon, battery, armed violence and reckless homicide.Hundreds of these charges were filed against people released after bail reform took effect, according to data Evans provided after the Tribune filed a public records petition to the Illinois Supreme Court. If those charges were included in the analysis, the total would be at least four times higher, the Tribune found.The report’s underlying data also was flawed in multiple ways that led to an undercount of murders and other violent crimes allegedly committed by people out on bail.In one example, the Tribune identified 21 defendants who allegedly committed murder after being released from custody in the 15 months after bail reform. Evans’ report said there were three.Among the reasons for that disparity:
- Evans’ analysis included only those defendants whose initial charge was a felony; it excluded those charged with a misdemeanor, which is far more common. Five of the murder defendants found by the Tribune had bonded out of jail on misdemeanor charges. Four of them had past felony convictions from attempted murder to armed robbery, and three had served prison time.
- The analysis counted only the first new charge against defendants after they were released from custody. The Tribune identified two people who were released, charged with another crime, released again and then charged with murder, all within the time period being examined. Those later murder charges were not entered into the database used for the report.
- Evans excluded three murder defendants whose first charge occurred before bail reform — even though they were released on bond after the reforms took effect in September 2017.
- Mistakes in data entry and incomplete court records marred the data set used in the analysis.
In one case, a reputed gang member released on a no-cash bond after a felony gun charge allegedly shot and killed a city Streets and Sanitation worker who was driving home to his three children, in what prosecutors called a case of mistaken identity.That defendant was not included in Evans’ analysis because a pretrial risk assessment was not entered into the data set, the Tribune found. At least 2,334 felony defendants did not receive an assessment — to gauge the likelihood they will commit a crime or fail to reappear if released — and were not part of Evans’ analysis, his office acknowledged.“You always think that if they didn’t release him my son would still be alive, and my grandchildren would still have their father,” said Michelle Jones-Vincent, the mother of the victim, Terrell Jones. “That’s always going through your head. I always wonder if the outcome would have been different if he would have remained incarcerated and not released on bail.”
Twenty-one defendants released who then went on to commit murder, when the black judge’s report claimed three. Seven times the actual number…
We live in a society where law and order is a concept long retired; in its place is a bastardized form of justice, entirely racialized to benefit non-white (primarily black) criminals, at the expense of the declining white majority and the civilization their ancestors long ago built, but is being dismantled brick by demographic brick.
New York City has a population 14 times that of Baltimore (8.6 million to 619,000).
Over the past three years, 70 percent black Baltimore has had more murders than New York City.
In 2017. In 2018. And in 2019.
Not per capita, not per 100,000, but in actual numbers.
Think about that for a moment.
Baltimore has a population of 619,000 people, of who 70 percent are black.
New York City has a population of 8.6 million people.
And Baltimore is far, far more dangerous.
For New York City in 2019:
- There were 318 homicides, of which 97 percent were committed by non-whites
For New York City in 2018:
- There were 289 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by non-whites
For New York City in 2017:
- There were 292 homicides, of which 93 percent were committed by non-whites
For Baltimore in 2019:
- There were 348 homicides, of which 98 percent were committed by blacks
For Baltimore in 2018:
- There were 309 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by blacks
For Baltimore in 2017:
- There were 342 homicides, of which 95 percent were committed by blacks
Do you understand just how violent the black population of Baltimore is, and why stop and frisk is such a vital tool for police in their war against crime?
In 2019, Baltimore had a homicide rate of 57 per 100,000, making it one of the most dangerous cities on the planet. Question: What’s the homicide rate for blacks in the city, considering whites make up 25% of the population yet committed virtually none of the murders in 2019?
