The title of this column seems unbelievable, but it is in fact what happened in America this past week. And almost no one has noticed.
After 50 years of being inundated with stories of white racism, and being taught in college that in this white-dominated society, only a white can be a racist, the American public has been properly brainwashed into accepting the otherwise incredible: A black man murdered eight white people at his place of work because they were white, and the media story is about the murderer's alleged experiences of racism.
Here's the Associated Press Report from Aug. 7, four days after the murders. It was reprinted in The Washington Post and throughout America:
"To those closest to him, Omar Thornton was caring, quiet and soft-spoken ... But underneath, Thornton seethed with a sense of racial injustice for years that culminated in a shooting rampage Tuesday in which the Connecticut man killed eight and wounded two others at his job at Hartford Distributors in Manchester before killing himself.
"'I know what pushed him over the edge was all the racial stuff that was happening at work,' said his girlfriend, Kristi Hannah.
"'He always felt like he was being discriminated (against) because he was black,' said Jessica Anne Brocuglio, his former girlfriend. 'Basically they wouldn't give him pay raises. He never felt like they accepted him as a hard working person.'
"'Thornton changed jobs a few times because he was not getting raises, Brocuglio said."
The New York Times Aug. 3 headline read: "Troubles Preceded Connecticut Workplace Killing," and in the second paragraph, the Times reported:
"He might also have had cause to be angry: he had complained to his girlfriend of being racially harassed at work, the woman's mother said, and lamented that his grievances had gone unaddressed."

Good looking girlfriend and a good job. I guess racism made
him a thief?
I don't believe that at all.
I think everyone noticed, and noticed how it was written about, and added it to their personal memory banks, and will probably not recall the specific story come voting time, but will have a strengthened belief that the media are full of crap on this story.
The good thing about Obama blaming Bush for everything and the Administration and Black Congressional Congress blaming racism for everything is that people are starting to hear these things and instantly know they're BS. These excuses are recognized as just that, and the more people hear them, the more they accept this reality.
He was a thief and murderer and anything else is horse dung.
People like Sharpton and Jackson and the Reverend Wright wind up the ignorant and incidents like this happen.
Sharpton is as guilty of murder as this guy , he has done it before in the Tawanna Brawly incident, and he will do it again ,and O’Reilly will have him on television helping him do it.
The leftist media ginning up racial tension. It’s what they do.
These are the same people who believe we should love our enemies - foreign and domestic!!!
They cannot accept that decent Americans of all races - love this country, do respect and appreciate one another.
This reminds me of a murder case in Nashville which was sort of a reverse TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD. In an upper middle class neighborhood Marcia Trimble disappeared while delivering Girl Scout cookies. A month later her body was found hidden in a garage. For years the police were convinced that it must have been a neighbor and at one point arrested a young White teen.
Years later a Black serial rapist/murderer was DNA-tied to the crime. He had been a handyman in that neighborhood, had a known criminal record, but was never an early suspect.
I have checked a good number of articles re the MURDERS and yet to have seen a listing and biographies of those who were murdered.
I have filed this in my “Hate Crimes” folder. Maybe I should start a “They Dissed Me” to keep things equal, ya know, one dissed = eight murders, seems fair and affirmative.
Guessing he was a lazy complaining thug....just a guess, tho.
Dennis Prager writing in JWR is hardly a Neo-Nazi rant - the ‘genteel mainstream’ has finally started to take notice....
Looks like Eric Holder is finally getting his ‘discussion of race’ — but it’s not going according to his ‘script’....
Keep pushing. One day whites will push back.
Hegelian dialectic:
Pit two or more groups against each other,
agitate to the point of conflict,
step in with the iron fist of tyranny to quell the violence,
and the populace will welcome you.
Why us it okay that people who comprise 13% of the population, are allowed to prey on the other 87% of us, without blame?
Omar?
That only applies to people who actually THINK!
I have a great perspective on this living in Switzerland as the ENTIRE media is liberal. Even “thinking” people over here can’t see through the distortions and BELIEVE what they read about the US.
A great many voters in the US are the same - they believe what Oprah tells them and can’t be bothered to think for themselves ...
It was a hate crime.
No, Mr. Prager...those of us who love this country noticed. The media, beholden to Obama, thinks we're stupid and didn't notice.
I’m guessing that WHITE racism somehow,led to the murders of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom in Knoxville, Tenn also.
“...“thinking” people over here can’t see through the distortions...”
Bingo! The trendy-set, there and here, do not think. They only pick up on what is fashionable to think.
You’re correct, but all progress depends on those who think VOTING. They can’t just shrug and think the dummies will overwhelm us, which they will if we just think it’s hopeless.
