CNN's Don Lemon On Gun Control: Should We Start Profiling White Men?
RCP ^ | 12/23/2012

Posted on 12/23/2012 8:14:57 AM PST by Altura Ct.

CNN's Don Lemon discusses the possibility of profiling white men in an attempt to prevent gun violence and decrease the amount of mass shootings. Lemon argues that white males between the ages of 18 and 25 were behind nearly all recent mass killings.

On the panel: David Sirota, radio talk show host; Richard Moran, criminologist; Lou Palumbo, retired police detective and private security provider; and Tom Deets, gun store owner.

Maybe we should start polling the Crips and the Bloods while we’re at it.

But THAT would be racist.

I think that it’s time we did a little profiling of our own.

Let’s compare the number of murders by blacks and whites ages 18-25. Don’t forget to divide the number of murders by whites by five, since there are 5 whites for every black.

Were the 9-11 terrorists white? What about John Doe #2 and #3 in the OKC bombing? Was the killer at Ft. Hood white? Are all all of the terror plots hatched by the white?

Course if we’d done that we wouldn’t have caught John Allen Muhammad, and Lee Boyd Malvo.

Don, Perhaps you could employ that 80 IQ of yours to recognize that anti-psychotic drugs are a better predictor of sociopathic behavior, than the “white male” element.

Absolutely we should profile white men who show tendencies of murderous insanity.

Only folks who scream racism at every little perceived slight are afraid of profiling.

When the SHTF and these people are sold into slavery, sexual and otherwise by the feral libs who will quickly take control of the cities they live in during the immediate aftermath, I am going to open my first beer in a LONG time, sit back and laugh until I puke.

That’s all I really have to say on it.

“Absolutely we should profile white men who show tendencies of murderous insanity.”

Which would be fine. But that’s not what they will profile white men for.

There is a profile that is emerging from these mass shooters. But it’s politically incorrect to even whisper truth now. Nevertheless, the libs should start looking in the mirror.

In his memoir, Transparent, released in May 2011, Lemon acknowledges publicly that he is gay and discusses colorism in the black community, racism, homophobia, and the sexual abuse that he suffered as a child.

CNN’s ‘Objective’ Don Lemon Appeared at Two Events Featuring Sebelius, Received ‘Visibility’ Award at Pro-Gay Gala
By Matt Hadro | March 20, 2012 | 17:31

If you were wondering about CNN’s objectivity on liberal issues like gay rights, the lines became a whole lot more blurred recently as anchor Don Lemon received a “Visibility” award from the pro-gay Human Rights Campaign at its North Carolina gala, where Obama’s HHS secretary Kathleen Sebelius spoke and stumped for the President’s re-election.

Then on Friday, Sebelius addressed middle school students at an anti-bullying event where Lemon served as the moderator of an anti-bullying panel. His appearances at events with an Obama cabinet member blur the lines of objectivity and his receiving an award from a gay-rights organization makes his liberal bias all the clearer.

Four hundred dead in Chicago so far this year. I wonder if there will be a Christmas Eve/Christmas Day shooting(s) over giving someone the wrong gift. Or just going off because of the Season.

Liberalism on parade, racists of the worst kind. The continued slaughter of alive unborn black children is ignored, the continuing slaughter of blacks, by blacks in the hood, and these liberal vermin want to discuss profiling crazy white boys. I wonder, if these vermin get their way and white young men are profiled, would these same racists elitist liberals then try to stop the slaughter among blacks by profiling drug addled raging black youths or address the wholesale slaughter of alive black children in the wombs of black females? ... I didn’t think so, and that’s why these are the worst kind of racists, using the elitist ignore button to de-populate the black communities.

Ya, I think it’s racist to profile black or other minority group youth gangs.

In fact, I thought liberals hated profiling in the first place, because it is racist or sexist or bigoted to look closely at members of certain groups who do certain things.

As tragic and evil as events such as school shootings are, the ongoing youth gang violence in our cities, in which minority gangs have laid waste to vast areas of our major cities, is virtually unreported in the MSM. Many more are victimized by gang violence than mass shootings. But we’re not allowed to talk about that because it would be racist.

prevent gun violence and decrease the amount of mass shootings.

So what exactly is the current amount as a percentage of total crime? Do mass shootings include driveby shootings in the hood?
