A white man reflects on the Baltimore riots (Sarcasm and vanity)
Vanity | 5/2/15 | George Smythe

Posted on 05/02/2015 3:12:26 PM PDT by DC Ripper

Remember when the media couldn't wait to post photos of Officer "Blond-Haired-Blue-Eyed-Whitey-Devil" Wilson, which, coupled with the now-debunked "Hands Up Don't Shoot" lie, was supposed to PROVE that the shooting was racially motivated?

It worked. Ferguson burned, the citizens were terrorized, cops were murdered in retaliation, lives were destroyed (including that of the officer), while incendiary opportunists like Al Sharpton prospered off of stirring up chaos, misery and racial resentment.

Obviously many people did not learn a single lesson from that, because the Baltimore case set off the same knee-jerk, bigoted response. We were to believe that this was obviously a problem with White America. You saw it everywhere.

We were told that White America simply could "not understand" the rage and misery inflicted by White Society, we were the bad guys, we were the catalyst, so we needed to soften our response to the Baltimore horror. In fact, it was not-so-subtly implied that if we did not empathize, it was just more evidence of our White Callousness to the cause. Except, lo and behold, the truth came out. Just like with Ferguson, truth demolished the anti-white narrative.

The same press who, quick-as-lightning, published the Darren Wilson photo (and in fact, his home address) has been reluctant to release ANY photos of the officers involved in Baltimore,. All while the city burned, whites were hated and attacked, and Al Sharpton arrived to save the day.

Believe me, I've been hunting these photos from the beginning. Yet once the mugshots were out, the press had no choice, and with the mugshots comes the racist-narrative-destroying truth.

What will the left do with this? My guess, knowing them like I do, is to re-define the word "racism." Just as they said "socialism is the new ''N-word,'" and "Saying 'thug' is just like using the "N-word,'" they will attempt to redefine the word.

The new definition will be "anybody who serves in an institution that oppresses people racially," which, loosely defined in their leftist minds, includes everything. Corporations, churches, bakeries, police organizations, banks, everything American.

In any case, as a White American who was unfairly blamed by the left as being part of the problem, I would appreciate an apology. It would be nice.

However, I am not naive enough to believe I will ever get one.

Not only are there black police involved here, along with white, the city of Baltimore is run by blacks.

Baltimore is a majority black city. They have a black mayor, mostly black city council, largely black police force, and a black chief of police.

So, what I want to know, is where exactly is the racism in this incident? You have a black “power structure”, so to speak, which runs things in Baltimore. Blacks run the city government. Blacks run the police force.

So, seems to me, whatever problems this incident represents, by definition, it cannot be racism, because the people in charge are black, and the victim is black.

What am I missing???

Race plays little here. The Commies want to nationalize the police.

Superb....

If these cops were all white, their pics, along with their home addresses, and where their kids go to school, would have been online in mere seconds.

Because of the deliberate stupidity of the mayor and DA, Baltimore is going to burn when these charges get dismissed, and/or acquittals come down..

Well, actually, a lot of the perps DID learn a lesson. They learned that they can rob stores, break windows, punch old ladies and gents, and generally have a good time, and they don't have to worry about being arrested for it.

"what am I missing?"

Evil Whitey is still responsible. Somehow. Don't ask me how, but I doubt any of the benighted black residents of Baltimore will find time to blame the black mayor, councilmen, or any other black members of the city's structure for any of their problems. At the end of the day Evil Whitey will still be held responsible.

Excellent post. You obviously understand that it is not about racial justice. It’s all about divide and conquer, convincing the dumbest of the dumb at both ends of the color spectrum to hate each other. With well-financed communist agitators fueling the fire. And the cops caught in the middle, taking all the heat. And as the losers burn down their cities, the agent provocateurs who goaded them into it (like Al Sharpton) are laughing all the way to the bank.
