Ebony Editor Not 'Comfortable' With Calling Dallas Cop Massacre a Hate Crime
Newsbusters ^ | July 14, 2016 | Tom Blumer

At her personal web site's home page, Ebony Magazine Senior Editor Jamilah Lemieux says she is "One of those pesky Black feminists who challenges the status quo, while remaining fresh and fab at all times."

"Fresh and fab" would hardly describe Ms. Lemieux's Wednesday appearance on CNN Newsroom, where she took issue with, per the White House, President Barack Obama's characterization of the murders of five Dallas law enforcement officers as "hate crimes." You see, that's not her "most comfortable word choice," because it involved white cops.

As will be seen in the latter portion of the video (HT Zero Hedge), CNN Law Enforcement Contributor and former FBI agent Steve Moore pushed back hard, and Ms. Lemieux tried to interrupt his self-evidently true response:

Five families grieving, hundreds of friends, coworkers desolate ... but we wouldn’t want Jamilah to be “uncomfortable”.

The killer said he wanted to kill white people and white police officers.

That’s racist.

I oppose “hate crimes” legislation of all types.
Illegal is illegal.
Murder is murder.
It’s not an act of love.

She’s racist and sexist, and possibly homosexual.

Also most likely ignorant, arrogant, and not very high IQ.

Black people cannot change the hearts and minds of White racists, and we have exhausted ourselves beyond measure trying.

Like I said, arrogant, ignorant, and low IQ. Black people should try changing the hearts and minds of BLACK racists ... starting with the one in the mirror.

I have often asked, when is murder not an act of hate? By definition, murder is an act of hated. She doesn’t think those officers were murdered?

I’m really curious, what else do you call it in today’s vernacular when the killer says he wanted to kill white people and cops right before he did it?

Let us not forget the wounded officers and their families. There are twelve families that need our prayers. In real life people are harder to kill than in the movies but unfortunately a bullet wound can and often does leave crippling injuries that have to be overcome for the rest of victim’s lives. These officers may face challenges for the rest of their lives.

I am so tired of the chaos the left and the establishment have gifted us with. Vigilante justice will return if the chattering classes and governments don’t clean their own house.

According to the Race Pimps and “Race Theorists”, black people cannot be racist even when they engage in obviously racist behavior. Screwy concept? You bet. Remember, this codswallop is taught in our nation’s universities.

It was not a hate crime. It was a crime of multiple murder. Hate is not Constitutionally a crime. In a Constitutional Republic such as this once was, emotion and words are not crimes no matter how despicable they are perceived to be. Just that conservatives can call for crimes to be labeled as hate crimes shows how far gone the Republic is. Even apparently staunch conservatives including most on FR are all for calling these things Hate crimes. They are happy with the designation and believe that emotions should be criminalized and the speech that expresses those emotions must of course be criminalized, too.

Like you, I don’t like the term, “hate crime”. The murder of the five police officers in Dallas was an act of terrorism by a black militant. Black Lives Matter and the New Black Panther Party are domestic terrorist organizations and should be treated as such.
