Is political correctness to blame for lack of coverage over horrific black-on-white killings...
Mail Online ^ | October 16, 2009 | David Gardner

Posted on 10/16/2009 10:26:43 AM PDT by bogusname

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. Her death came only after hours of torture, during which time she was raped and savaged with a broken chair leg. She was beaten in the head and a household bleach was poured down her throat and over her bleeding and battered genital area in an attempt by her attackers to cover any evidence of rape – all while she was still alive...

You're kidding, right?

If this had been two BLACK kids, it would have been one week or more of State-Run-Media 24/7 Hate Crime coverage, with Al Sharptoon and Jesse Jackass on every "news" hour you could think of....

There's no black-on-white hate crime, it only (hate crime) occurs when a "minority" (the DESIGNATED CLASSES) is the victim.....

The ratio of black on white crime dwarfs white on black and remember, black males are ONLY 7% of the population. So, they overachieve in the wanton violence department, and they overachieve in the dependence on govt for their daily subsistence department.

It’s more than just political correctness. For socialists, the white man must be subsumed. In case anyone hasn’t noticed, whites in Russia threw off their socialist oppressors. The chinese are “celebrating” the 70th anniversary of their destruction and subjugation. The blacks of Africa and blacks of the world cheer on Robert Mugabe. The whites are very individualistic and will question things. If they don’t like the answer, they will solve it.

For whatever reason, the minorities seem to just be a go along to get along kind of people, which works for prison life (socialism) but is cumbersome for a free republic.

If I can remember it right, the DOJ statistics say that 4,777 out of every 100,000 black men are in jail or prison. 727 out of every 100,000 white men are in jail or prison.

THE RACE WAR OF BLACK AGAINST WHITE

Paul Sheehan

From the Sydney Morning Herald, May 20, 1995

The longest war America has ever fought is the Dirty War, and it is not over. It has lasted 30 years so far and claimed more than 25 million victims. It has cost almost as many lives as the Vietnam War. It determined the result of last year’s congressional election.

Yet the American news media do not want to talk about the Dirty War, which remains between the lines and unreported. In fact, to even suggest that the war exists is to be discredited. So let’s start suggesting, immediately.

No matter how crime figures are massaged by those who want to acknowledge or dispute the existence of a Dirty War, there is nothing ambiguous about what the official statistics portray: for the past 30 years a large segment of black America has waged a war of violent retribution against white America.

And the problem is getting worse, not better. In the past 20 years, violent crime has increased more than four times faster then the population. Young blacks (under 18) are more violent than previous generations and are 12 times more likely to be arrested for murder than young whites.

Nearly all the following figures, which speak for themselves, have not been reported in America:

According to the latest US Department of Justice survey of crime victims, more than 6.6 million violent crimes (murder, rape, assault and robbery) are committed in the US each year, of which about 20 per cent, or 1.3 million, are inter-racial crimes.

Most victims of race crime – about 90 per cent – are white, according to the survey “Highlights from 20 Years of Surveying Crime Victims,” published in 1993.

Almost 1 million white Americans were murdered, robbed, assaulted or raped by black Americans in 1992, compared with about 132,000 blacks who were murdered, robbed, assaulted or raped by whites, according to the same survey.

Blacks thus committed 7.5 times more violent inter-racial crimes than whites even though the black population is only one-seventh the size of the white population. When these figures are adjusted on a per capita basis, they reveal an extraordinary disparity: blacks are committing more than 50 times the number of violent crimes of whites.

According to the latest annual report on murder by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, most inter-racial murders involve black assailants and white victims, with blacks murdering whites at 18 times the rate that whites murder blacks.
These breathtaking disparities began to emerge in the mid-1960s, when there was a sharp increase in black crime against whites, an upsurge which, not coincidentally, corresponds exactly with the beginning the modern civil rights movement.

Over time, the cumulative effect has been staggering. Justice Department and FBI statistics indicate that between 1964 and 1994 more than 25 million violent inter-racial crimes were committed, overwhelmingly involving black offenders and white victims, and more than 45,000 people were killed in inter-racial murders. By comparison 58,000 Americans died in Vietnam, and 34,000 were killed in the Korean war.

When non-violent crimes (burglary, larceny, car theft and personal theft) are included, the cumulative totals become prodigious. The Bureau of Justice Statistics says 27 million non-violent crimes were committed in the US in 1992, and the survey found that 31 per cent of the robberies involved black offenders and white victims (while only 2 per cent in the reverse).

When all the crime figures are calculated, it appears that black Americans have commited at least 170 million crimes against white Americans in the past 30 years. It is the great defining disaster of American life and American ideals since World War II.

All these are facts, yet by simply writing this story, by assembling the facts in this way, I would be deemed a racist by the American news media. It prefers to maintain a paternalistic* double-standard in its coverage of black America, a lower standard.

I would doubt that the anti-American left wing Nazi media would ever say anything about this or other killings like it.

There can be no HATE Crime unless you are white and then it is always a HATE Crime. It will get worse and worse as the number of black Americans killed are killed by their Black brothers and one never hears the Leader of the Devils Brigade Jackson or other so called black leaders say anything about it.

Nor do they say anything about the gangs that are totally killing Black Americans in LA.

Yes. In our neighborhood, three white girls (around age 18) were walking away from a Haunted House (in a private home) a fee Halloweens ago. They were verbally and racially taunted by black men and teens. The girls asked to be left alone and walked faster. The men, joined by women, started throwing fruit and little pumpkins at the girls. They started running.

Instantly they were surrounded by about 40 young blacks of both genders, who were pounding on them with fists and a skateboard. Racial epithets against whites were used. The girls had their earrings ripped through their earlobes, their cellphones stolen, and they were beaten nearly until death. The skateboard was broken and bloody when a good Samaritan, an older black man, got between the attackers and victims (getting beaten HIMSELF in the process) and stopped the massacre.

One woman was hospitalized a very long time. Another lost partial sight in her eyes; she had been a photography student.

Only the girl attackers were caught. They were found to have gang connections. Their punishment, other than juvie during the trial months, ended up to be house arrest, and they could still attend high school sports practice after school.

The community rallied around these mostly underage attackers.

It was sickening.

I've been fascinated by this for a very long time. Why hasn't the MSM picked up on this? Simple, it doesn't fit their ideology. They ignore stories that don't fit their ideology and report those stories that fit or acknowledge their ideology. It is in this way that the news(MSM) becomes slanted.

This has been going on for the longest time. It's interesting to note that even in the South during the Civil Rights Era many more whites were victims of crime by blacks than the reverse. But the news media just didn't report it. It didn't fit their ideology.

I've argued this with liberals (some in the media) time and again and either they change the subject or try to obfuscate the issues. They are cowards.

Every time I see a horrific story of black on white crime I email it to all my liberal friends and colleagues. In this way and only in this way only will people start to realize what's happening. It might even save some lives. I suggest that all of you who care about this do the same. The MSM certainly isn't going to do it.

I personally believe this ‘noble savage’ view the press have blacks has GOT to end. If you cannot be held responsible for your actions, then you have no right to be in decent society. These days it’s like whites have to be in some sort of purdah to survive and not get raped or attacked repeatedly.

I am so sick of this. It’s the irony of life that Third World countries punish thugs like these harshly while supposedly in this ‘civilized’ country these animals get away with all of this.

No problem. I thought this was one place that we could speak the truth without fear as well. I found out differently. Here, like anywhere else, if you dare suggest that race plays a part, any part at all, in the behavior of groups of people, you will get the third degree -- not from the Mods, but from other posters. It's hard to believe, but many of our fellow Freepers simply will not acknowledge reality as it exists with regard to race in America; instead, they choose to cling to the laughable, hippie-era idea that race and color and ethnicity do not influence the way people think and behave.

Never mind that in today's America, that kind of thinking can get you killed -- it's just gotta be true!

Neah. Its not that.
Its just that race and “racism” have been used a club so long and so hard that we cringe a bit whenever someone brings it up. Its also a matter of trying not to give the enemy ammunition.

Then there is the free will angle - individuals commit crimes, not races. The crime is equally bad no matter the race of criminal.

Finally, most of us don’t like the concept of “thought crime” no matter who it is used against. What the criminal thought while committing a crime is irrelevant.

DA says no to Hate Crime:

Life: Letalvis 'Rome' Cobbins was found guilty of multiple counts of first degree murder. He was also convicted of rape, kidnapping and robbery

Defence lawyers were quick to say that some of the accused dated white women and even prosecutors denied any racial overtones.

‘There is absolutely no proof of a hate crime,’ said John Gill, special counsel to Knox County District Attorney Randy Nichols.

‘It was a terrible crime, a horrendous crime, but race was not a motive. We know from our investigation that the people charged in this case were friends with white people, socialised with white people, dated white people. 'So not only is there no evidence of any racial animus, there’s evidence to the contrary,’ he added.

individuals commit crimes, not races. The crime is equally bad no matter the race of criminal.

Yes, but individuals do not exist in a vacuum. Man is a social animal, and the culture a person inhabits directly influences his or her actions. For example, it's true that individual Muslims made the decision to participate in the 9/11 attacks. Is it therefore wrong to infer that there is something in Muslim culture that makes it more likely that Muslims will contemplate or commit acts of violent terrorism? I think that only a fool would deny this. Yet if you deny it publicly, you'll be called a racist.

Likewise with crime. FBI statistics1 clearly show that black Americans commit more murders each year than do white Americans (35.2% vs. 33.5%) -- and that's using the FBI's politically correct definition of "white". (The FBI counts Mexicans, Central Americans, Arabs, and members of other non-African ethnic groups as "white".) Yet even with statistics from the FBI to back you up, a claim that "blacks commit more murders than whites" will get you called a racist. A racist -- just for pointing out the truth!

Well, I'm tired of playing pretend when it comes to race in America. The only way we are ever going to get past this -- short of breaking up the country into ethnic homelands -- is to take the bull by the horns and address the questions of race in an honest fashion. Why are Asian and Euro neighborhoods safer than Black and Hispanic neighborhoods of equal economic status? Why did New Orleans descend into anarchy after Katrina, while equally-devastated Iowa did not after its own floods? Why are GPAs, graduation rates, and IQ test scores higher among Asians and Euros than among Blacks and Hispanics of equal economic status? The differences exist -- the only question is what causes them. Yet we are not even permitted to ask!

Well, I'm asking. And if you're honest, you'll admit that you've wondered too -- no matter what color you may be.
