NYC Politician Blames ‘Jewish Success’ for ‘Knock-Out’ Attacks

More and more -- IN EVERY TINY DETAIL -- America is resembling late-1930's Germany.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Envy writ large.
What does the bible say ?

[beethovenfan]

Black teens need to get off their asses and work, at something.

If you want to live in this country, you better be a loser or Barry’s feral, “fundamental transformation” police will clobber you. We’ve been “fundamentally transformed” now by Barry Soetoro and his ilk. Success and prosperity will no longer be tolerated. We’re a nation of losers.

“While I personally regard this level of tenacity, I also recognize that for others, the accomplishments of the Jewish community triggers feelings of resentment, and a sense that Jewish success is not also their success,” Cumbo, who was recently elected, wrote in a letter. Chief among the issues causing resentement against Jews could stem from hostility towards Jewish landlords, she added. Cumbo, who is black, said that she was looking to “offer possible insight as to how young African American/Caribbean teens” think and how it can lead to the attacks.

Well if there really is envy towards what God has blessed... it would seem to me an obvious answer would be to seek God's blessings too. Heaven to Cumbo here, Heaven to Cumbo here... it's as close as the Christian gospel.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well, I think it’s better, if more dangerous, for envy to come right out in the open.

Because then we can speak directly to the envious people and tell them that there is no reason to envy! God will bless you too, all you have to do is ask for it.

[BenLurkin]

Indeed. The whole “unter-mensch” concept is about as foul as Nazism gets.

[riri]

We are really getting into dangerous territory here.

Image from 2012... how about the devilish de Blasio in the center background?

[latina4dubya]

a councilwoman made the ludicrous remarks...

[Third Person]

Bill de Blasio will let the thugs run amuck in NYC.

[FredZarguna]

So, the knockout attacks on homeless people are just cases of mistaken accomplishment?

I don't know why anyone is surprised. Liberalism was/is/and always will be a philosophy of envy, slander, and greed. The slimy undercurrent of "social justice" (that's "dog whistle," for any libtards tuning in) is that people who have things don't deserve them and got them by exploiting somebody else.

She's not really saying anything new, she's just not as clever about hiding it as lib/progs usually are.

[Ms Mable]

I say bullchit. Black punks are ambushing other races and they are telling us that we shouldn’t be afraid of a group of young black males coming our direction. That only a “few black punks” are doing this...OK, then, why are we suppose to hate all firearms when only a very “few guns” are actually harming people?

[Fred Nerks]

Blacks are just useful tools for islam, the majority are muslim converts - and those that aren’t just suffer from a huge case of envy which makes any observant jew a perfect target.

[Hardraade]

Nazists are pretty down on blacks, but they mostly agree that the blacks are bad because of the joos.

All flowing from the proto-nazi, mohammed.

[workerbee]

So, in a nutshell, this politico, who just so happens to be of the black race and the Demoncrat party, excused violent crime by young people of her own similar persuasion with the claim that, “Yeah well, dem Jews got it comin’ to ‘em.”

Right?

[austinaero]

So basically jealousy is to blame. Is this critter trying to say only those poor African/Caribbean groups feel jealousy?

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

ahhhh..the logic of the Left!
