***STATEMENT OF REV. PETERSON REGARDING INGLEWOOD POLICE INCIDENT: BLACK LEADERS ARE TO BLAME! ***
BOND (Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny) ^ | July 18, 2002 | Ermias Alemayehu

Posted on 07/18/2002 10:36:49 AM PDT by NewDestiny

“Al Sharpton; Maxine Waters; Jesse Jackson and others are to blame for the videotaped beating of Donavan Jackson, the black sixteen-year old, who was roughed up by a white Inglewood Police Officer as the youth resisted arrest and fought with police.

These problem profiteers can gather a group of angry blacks in less than an hour to hate the white man and incite a riot, but not to stand up for the reported thirteen million black babies that have been killed in the black woman’s womb. You won’t hear black leaders shouting about black-on-black crime being out of control, that the public schools have been dumbing down inner city children so that they can barely read and write, or that the black community is ravaged with AIDS.


These black leaders have turned black youth against authority, particularly the police. As a result, we are seeing more incidents of black youth lashing out against them. Sharpton, Waters, Jackson and other so called ‘civil-rights leaders’ are a combination of evil men and women whose only goal is power and wealth, at the cost of the rest of the black community. We must repudiate and disband this evil band of leaders and stand strongly for truth, or they will destroy the black community and America with it.”

Rev. Peterson is the host of a nationally syndicated radio talk show “The Jesse Lee Peterson Show” heard Monday through Friday at 3 PM P.S.T. / 6 PM E.S.T. To listen live go to www.inforadionet.com

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

I am a big fan of Reverand Jesse Peterson ever since attending the MFJ, but it would have been helpful if he had added that this case is about police brutality and abuse of power.

That's the thing about some black people griping about being followed around in department stores; they have spent years wanting whitey to fear them, and when that comes to fruition, they don't like it. Also, going into a department store, regardless of race, dressed like a hoodlum won't earn any trust either.

Hey, that kid must have been doing something to cause a policeman to slam his face on the hood of a car. I haven't been paying a whole lot of attention to this thing. Can anyone fill me in?

I read that the kid grabbed the policeman's crotch. Wouldn't THAT be a double-whammy against the officer; slamming a black homosexual.

Bingo, baby.

And it's not even just the black people. A friend of mine has a son (teenager) who got into the 'rap' bit. Now, friend and wife are both good lefty liberals (although momma doesn't frown on corporal punishment; go figure), and they raised their kid as a boy scout, no less.

Anyway, this kids going nuts on 'em. Staying out till all hours, using marijuana, getting drunk, mom's pretty sure he managed to get laid last month, and he basically only shows up long enough to steal some money from dad's wallet.

So this kid does the baggy pants, backward hat, the whole 'eminem' bit.

Anyway, dad goes and retrieves him at some party where he's raising he!! and gets told "you're so WHITE." Mind you, the kid's got blonde hair and blue eyes.

They asked wifey and me if we'd assist in hauling his a$$ off to juvie if he keeps up, we said sure. If this kid wants to act like a gang banger, I'll treat him that way.

And, I added, if he thinks he's a gangsta rapper, tell 'im you've got a friend who thinks he's Nathan Bedford Forrest.

Not that this kid'd have the slightest idea what I'm talking about, but it made me feel good...

that's an over-simplification of the problem ... (I'm white BTW) ... not every black leader does that ... the fault does not lie 100% on one side and not the other ... "gangsta" rap however did not help anyone ... I met Ice-T in 1989 and man, what an attitude he had ... he's mellowed out since then I believe ...

The only way the cop's package was within reach of the suspect was if the cop was dry-humping him.

Is Jesse Lee Peterson a conservative? It doesn't appear so, because if he was, he would place the blame on the kid for misdeeds that got him arrested, and Jeremy Morse for assaulting him after he was handcuffed.

The punk reportedly grabbed the officer's crotch. If you watch the video carefully, the officer's story appears to be very believable. In it, the officer gets a sudden look of pain on his face before he strikes the miscreant.

If someone attacked my boys, I'm sure I'd be swinging too!

His hands were cuffed behind and was turned away from the cop,...simply squeezed real hard...if someone did that to me, no telling what I'd do...ouch!!!

Who knows, it seems as if the entire story changes with each article written. I also read that there was a break in the filming of the incident. I don't think the cop would have to be humping him in order for the perp to grab his crotch. I have watched COPS, and have noticed that, when they have to cuff a resistant perp, they have to put their body weight on the perp. This is just speculation but, if the perp did grab him there, it might have been during such a situation.

Man, you've hit the nail on the head.

It's the culture not the melanin. That's why things like school uniforms work, because it changes the culture.

I've seen everything you speak of happen before my very own eyes.

I'll have to remember that "Nathan Bedford Forrest" line.

There was another thread dealing with this issue. I'll try and find it to link it. Anyway, the officer filed an incident report stating that the suspect had grabbed his privates. This report was filed before it was learned that the video existed.

Blacks too often think the cops and the legal system are racist and simply don't realize that the system is often race-neutral. The system, including law enforcement and the courts abuse the rights of white people as much as it does blacks. It is all about maintaining power and the abuse of power that corrupt officials engage in in order to retain that power.

...Nathan Bedford Forrest...

Don't put too much stock in it. Heck, I even got a blank look from the parents...

But then, these people know what I can do (although I am getting a bit soft, lately); kid may be younger and stronger, but I'm older, meaner, and trickier.

And I cheat.

Well, that's a bummer! I'm lost then. I went to my link and it goes right to
the CNN page with the link. I wish I knew what the problem is. I never have
given them a penny. I may have registered with them a long time ago, but I
never paid anything. So sorry, FRiend. If I knew how to fix this, I would.
And if I figure out a solution, I'll let you know.

I'm so tired of the cop bashing.
Given the liberal's enthusiasm for government, you'd think they would love cops--but you'd be wrong. The "liberal" despises the bottom line, and the bottom line is that the cop has to try to make government decisions effective. Liberal nostrums don't work, and who is to blame? Why, the cop, of course . . .

I agree with this statement 100%. They need racism to keep the money and cameras rolling in.
The problem is, though, the poor kids who get taken down by them to the point were they cannot get back up. They're sacrificed for race bait and potential elite status.
Sodomites play the same game. They create hate, then cry victim with a smile when they get what they ask for. It brings them one step closer to hate crime legislation and special elite status they're willing to get beat up for.

People were calling a radio station I was listening to. Witnesses saw the whole thing. It wasn't all on the tape. Before they subdued him, the kid was a raging animal. Any man would want to kick that kids a$$ for doing what he did to those men. I thought the police showed more restraint than they should have. This kid asked for it.
The press will show you what they want you to see. The rest gets left out. Ironic, isn't it?
I'd like to see the whole story become public , not just the politically correct parts.

Better to believe citizen callers than the liberal press. Who would be more apt to tell the whole story?
The press never said a word about what happened minutes before they subdued him, did they? Wouldn't it seem reasonable to tell the whole story instead of just the end?

Well, we have a video recording of the arrest on the one hand that we can view to our heart's content. On the other hand, we have anonymous voices who MAY or MAY NOT have been there (people HAVE been known to lie on the radio--it's a wonderfully anonymous medium).

The press never said a word about what happened minutes before they subdued him, did they?

Uh-huh. When does the Inglewood PD get around to releasing the security camera video? Or is it going to be mysteriously erased a la the Waco video footage that would have shown who fired first?

Wouldn't it seem reasonable to tell the whole story instead of just the end?

So why aren't you picketing the Inglewood PD, demanding that they release the gas station security video?

Actually a handcuffed suspect has a wider range of reach with his hands than you might realize. I've seen police officers grab a suspect's arms, whose hands are handcuffed behind him, and then raise the suspects arms up over his head. To see just how much mobility you would have, stand up and clasp your hands together behind your back and then see if you could reach back and grab the "nuts" of an imaginary police officer standing right behind you. I can reach back close to two feet and I think that Officer Morse was standing a lot closer than that to Jackson.

You do realize that you've just described a favorite torture technique used by the Vietnamese in the Hanoi Hilton, right? The only way that it works as you've described is if the suspect's shoulders have been dislocated.

To see just how much mobility you would have, stand up and clasp your hands together behind your back and then see if you could reach back and grab the "nuts" of an imaginary police officer standing right behind you.

OK, I draped myself across a desk face-down (the suspect was not standing), clasped my hands behind me, and reached to grab an imaginary cop's jewels...couldn't get my hands past my buttocks. Were Morse's jewels growing out of his sternum?

I can reach back close to two feet and I think that Officer Morse was standing a lot closer than that to Jackson.

Do it from the same posture Jackson was in. The only way Morse's account makes sense is if Morse practices the love that used to dare not speak its name, but now doesn't know when to shut the (bleep) up.

Rev. Jesse is right about the misplaced priorities some Blacks have who get all bent out of shape over police brutality but not as much over crime, poor Black student achievement, etc.

At the same time, I'd advise him not to blame every problem in the Black community on Black leadership. Nobody Black I know waits for Je$$e Jackson or Big Al to define reality for them.

Because it doesn't mean that much to me, except feeling bad for the cops, who I think are getting a PC screwing. As for the kid, too bad. A good spanking should have been added to that tape.
I do hope the cops get a fair hearing with a fair judge.
Too bad if you don't like my opinion. Who cares? The kid got less than he asked for. He got off easy.

Let's not forget... the kid will probably walk away with a cool million or more for getting his face smacked. From the sound of it, he'll enjoy spending his new-found fortune on drugs, cool threads, and a hot car or two!

I wouldn't be a cop if you paid me a million. One little event and you're dog meat. Not to mention you'd have to deplete your life savings for some fat cat lawyer to defend you for years to come!

Yep. Clown works for me. The only thing missing is 'funny,' cause this kid's just pitiful.
