COURT HOUSE – Colin Flaherty is a noted journalist for 30 years, whose works have appeared in major newspapers including The New York Times, Washington Post and Los Angeles Times, and has been published in 1,000 sites around the world and received 50 journalism awards. Flaherty made an appearance Nov. 3 at Atlantic Cape Community College to speak about black-on-white violence, a topic, he stated, which does not receive much press.
The subject makes editors uncomfortable, Flaherty said. Liberals, he said, cringe at the idea of black-on-white violence and police underreport it.
Flaherty documented cases in Chicago where Mayor Rahm Emanuel denied it, and in Philadelphia where Mayor Michael Nutter diminished it.
Flaherty appeared at Helen McCaffrey’s American History II class, Francis Raucher’s English class, and John Alvarez’s theatre class, to discuss his book, White Girl Bleed A Lot, and thesis that black-on-white crime is increasing, and that it is not sufficiently covered in the press establishment.
Flaherty said that race riots are occurring and they are largely ignored. Political correctness has reached a new high, according to Flaherty, as TV affiliates, newspaper editors and mayors fall all over themselves to avoid attributing race to the attackers, who are, he said, predominantly young black men.
McCaffrey, who teaches history at Atlantic Cape, introduced Flaherty. “The purpose of coming to college is to explore ideas, new ideas, and to think. If we are not making you uncomfortable, we are not making you think. Ask questions,” she said, “and feel free to agree or disagree. That’s how you learn to think.”
Asked about how the speaker got invited, McCaffrey replied, “I heard him on the radio, and I thought that he presented an unheard point of view. I told him that he needed to talk to college students, and he said, ‘Let’s do it.’”
Flaherty’s book, which is a bestseller on Amazon, begins: “Racial violence is back. In hundreds of episodes across the country since 2010, groups of black people are roaming the streets of America, intimidating, stalking, vandalizing, stealing, shooting, stabbing, raping, and killing.
“In private, they said that it was the Asian students’ fault. Lots of racism is targeted at immigrants, especially Asians, by young black men,” he said.
The students were also complaining because the administration did nothing to protect them. One video, featuring a black youth, said that the object was not racism, but financial opportunity. The people were helpless, had cell phones, did not speak English well and were not able to retaliate. They were afraid. So they were targeted.
Flaherty also detailed incidents of “knockout,” a game wherein a black mob appears and several members knock over elderly women or men, or a single person, while others beat them. The rest of the assembly stands by and cheers.
Flaherty said he addresses the problem like an old-fashioned newspaper reporter. He doesn’t ask why, he doesn’t comment on the causes, he just states the facts. He doesn’t care why it is happening, he cares that it is happening, and he thinks that truth is better than fiction. “And if it is happening, it ought to be covered,” he said.
In his book, Flaherty delineated a list of 90 cities under attack. Beginning with Atlantic City, the narrative continues across the country, including anecdote after anecdote, which includes Miami Beach ‘black beach parties,’ and college campus riots in Philadelphia and in the Midwest.
Closer to Cape May County, Flaherty reported many cases of black-on-white violence in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Wilmington, Washington, D.C. and New York.
He talked about liberals who want to give reasons for the behavior but who fail to recognize it for what it is. He mentioned newspapers calling attackers ‘youths,’ but never presenting their color. He talked about the newspapers minimizing the situation.
At one point during the talk at Atlantic Cape, a voice from the audience shouted, “Are you a racist?” That was Leon Hart, a black man.
“No, I’m just giving you the facts,” Flaherty replied.
Discussing Ferguson, Mo., Flaherty said that NBC reported, “The protests at Ferguson have been largely peaceful.” However, the police in the area had purchased $172,669 worth of tear gas, grenades, and other body armor. Demonstrations, he said, were violent, rampant with Molotov cocktails, gunfire, and residents were beaten.
Flaherty said the event was documented with videos, 911 calls, police reports.
He said that the reason a lot of black violence goes unreported is fear. In Philadelphia, he said, there are 2,500 cases of intimidation on the books. People were attacked in their homes, police went and broke it up, the attackers left, and then went back and threatened destruction if anyone spoke about it.
Flaherty went on to describe “polar bear hunting,” where blacks get together and beat up whites. It occurs, he said, at “a lot at colleges, like the University of Illinois. It’s always a lot worse than what I describe. Every story I do, people come up to me and say, ‘Oh yeah, that’s been happening around here, too.’”
Liberals have been fomenting black on white violence for years. The media ignores it and pretends there’s no racism involved. I’m hoping there will be a backlash, but with today’s politically corrected white population it’s probably going to take a lot of dead white people to get them to wake up.
“In South Philadelphia, reported by the Philly Daily News and City Paper, Asian students were being beaten up by blacks in a black high school in South Philly for five years. The Asians were about 18 percent of the student population, the blacks, 70 percent. The students, after harassment, beatings, attacks to and from school, on the subway, complained to the administration, hosted a march, and the administration gave them a pamphlet telling them how not to aggravate the black students.” School officials told local networks that the event was in no way racial, Flaherty continued.
Thank you, Eric Holder.
Hope & Change.
This crap is why I carry extra magazines.
Don't excel, don't be successful, and for GOD'S sake don't attribute anything to hard work. That really aggravates black students.
I’m not sure if this is anything new. Time Magazine did a story on this in 1958:

A few weeks ago I told a new, young, naïve, EE to be very careful around groups of Black males. I told him that what I was telling him could save his life someday.
He told his roommate, another male EE. I heard about it from the angry roommate, and the word racist was nearly thrown at me.
A week later, I heard through the grapevine that the roommate had two encounters with Black males, in both encounters the Black was violent, and the roommate nearly got his head handed to him in one of the situations.
Both young men have been very friendly with me lately.
Neither has said a word to me, and it doesn’t matter, they’re safe.
Actually, she doesn’t have to take it out. The purse is designed to allow you to point the whole purse and shoot.
Of course, that ruins a perfectly NICE purse!
The omabumists are unquestionably race baiting to invigorate their base at the polls. This increases black-on-white violence. I wonder how far they are willing to go down this road. Is Obama trying to foment a violent Marxist revolution with race as the flashpoint and fuel?
Racial demagoguery has cowed the rest of the population into just taking it for fear of the Star Chamber treatment by news media, in the courts and even at their places of employment. The non-reaction has been taken for weakness and fear, which has emboldened those who participate in the behavior. When the day comes, and it will, that the PC veneer finally gets blown off by some wildly unjust attack with the attackers excused because of race or even hidden because of it, then that will be used to claim that this country is irredeemably racist. “See, told you, they hate black people, nothing but a bunch of racists.” There’s an element of intentional provocation among the more militant left as well. They want revolution and foment dissatisfaction and anger to further that end.
What’s an EE?
There has been some press coverage in the news recently, as blacks rob/attack students at the Rutgers New Brunswick campus; a few years ago this wouldn’t have been reported. The media realizes they can’t suppress these stories on the internet and word-of-mouth, so they may as well try to get out in front of them with their own spin.
It is a combination of being raised with racial animosity and opportunity; in their own neighborhoods everything is bolted down so they have to prey on people who either don’t know better (due to news blackouts) or can’t do anything about it anyway (convenience store clerks).
Given the way the Denver cops hid the “knockout game” here for YEARS, I’ve decided the news reporting rate is about 1 in 10.
I’ve taken the appropriate steps.
And here I ignorantly thought all this crime was the result of the Amish.
I was on a cruise around 8 years ago and i was talking to a crew member and i mentioned why is everything bolted down in my cabin, was it because of the waves?
He replied no it’s because the blacks steal everything that’s not bolted down.
Eastern European ?
