"White Girl Bleed a Lot" (5th Edition): The return of racial violence and how the media ignore it.
This review is from: "White Girl Bleed a Lot" (5th Edition): The return of racial violence and how the media ignore it. (Paperback) The book is simply a series of reports of Black flash mobs crashing into stores, grabbing, insulting, robbing, beating, and occasionally sending whites to hospital or to the morgue. On one level, this book is quite boring, for it is the same story told and retold again. It is the same story in Philadelphia, San Francisco, New York, Miami, Myrtle Beach, Indianapolis, Charlotte, Texas, New Jersey, Milwaukee, etc. The stories are variations on the same theme, how can young Blacks humiliate whites, destroy their property, steal, beat, and then run away. Black racism, Black on white hatred, Black on white crime, Black on white violence is an epidemic in America. This part of Flaherty's book is solid.
Unfortunately, the response to these crimes is usually as repetitious as the crimes themselves. Local newspapers generally refuse to identify the race of the perpetrators. The author is able to do so by using Youtube videos, often posted by the criminals. They are proud of their violent crimes against whites (sometimes, against Asians). One amazon reviewer dismissed the content of the book, maintaining it was anecdotal and not accord with the FBI's hate crime statistics. In Milwaukee on July 3, 2011, a groups of Blacks ransacked a gas station's convenience store. They then rampaged in a nearby park beating and stealing from whites, who were there to view the fireworks. Police were called and came to the scene. However, because of the politically correct sensitivity to minorities, even sensitive to those engaging in crime, the officers refused to file reports of the crimes. If there are no police reports of the Blacks attacking whites, then the crimes do not exist, and these crimes are not included in FBI or any other statistics. Does one expect the Eric Holder Justice Department (the one that dropped the voter intimidation case against the New Black Panther Party) to investigate possible anti-white racism in a police department that permitted them to ignore the violent crimes by Blacks against whites? Only after some of the whites were treated at hospital and called talk radio did local TV reports begin to expose the Black racist assaults. Finally, [white] Police Chief Ed Flynn conceded that some "fights" had occurred. Flaherty snidely commented, "'fights,' which is a curious way to describe a race riot where some of the victims actually tried to defend themselves."(p. 120) One of the white gals was slugged so hard, that her blood evoked the comment that inspired the title of this book. Mayor Tom Barrett, a liberal Democrat, and Chief Flynn, an import from New York, denied these were hate crimes, assured the city that crime was colorblind, and decried those who sought to "sensationalize" the occurrences.
Flaherty has amassed a book of crimes - crimes by Blacks against whites, and a few of Blacks against Asians. Flaherty recounts page after page of Black on white hostility, insults, theft, beatings, some of which may have led to emergency treatment, and sometimes to the grave. Page after page. Boring to read; painful to read, distressing to read of such injustice perpetrated so often by violent, Black racists, depressing to read how the crimes are not reported in the press, or not reported as racist crimes.
Josef Stalin, the Soviet dictator, observed that the death of one person is a tragedy; the death of a million is a statistic.
Unfortunately, in the US it becomes harder to acquire accurate statistics of Black on White crime. If you simply read the local newspaper accounts of most of these incidents, all of the racial animosity and motivation is removed, deleted, expunged, censored. Why are Americans not supposed to read about the massive hatred and violence against whites committed by Blacks?
Black mobs are not identified as such; they are roving groups of "youths," "teens," "young people," indulging in unseemly behavior. These are not hate crimes, and race has little or nothing to do with it. Of course, the reality is NOT what is reported. The reality is that young Blacks engage in insulting, threatening, beating, and robbing whites. But the major media do NOT want to reveal this basic fact. Flaherty finds the facts - on Youtube, where the color of the crime is visible and often posted by the proud Black racist criminals themselves. Why do the national and most local media cover up the criminality of Black mobs? On this question Flaherty is silent. He clearly exposes the media cover-ups, but fails to ask why.
To answer this question, an older book might be more helpful, William McGowan's Coloring the News: How Crusading for Diversity Has Corrupted American Journalism. Beginning with the large-scale Black riots in hundreds of American cities in the mid- to late-1960s, the liberal analysis of events was encapsulated in the report of the Kerner Commission. Basically, the blue-ribbon panel blamed the riots on white racism, excused the rioters, and urged changes to prevent future outbreaks. Universities, which became the think-tanks of the Left developed theories to exculpate Black violence; they were "culturally deprived," they were victims of institutional racism, and their outbursts were simply a means to cope with such oppression. Furthermore, Blacks could not, by definition, be racists. They might show prejudice, but racism required power, and since Blacks in America lacked power, they were incapable of being racist. Only white racism was the problem. Of course, if you walk alone on a street at night, who has the power, a Black with a pistol, or you? And in the era of President Obama and Attorney General Holder, who does have the power? Moreover, if this definition made any sense and were applied elsewhere, then Afrikaners, by definition, can no longer be racists in the new South Africa.
The Left-wing theories of race spun by academics were popularized by the media. In the journalism and communications departments of universities, students were taught that as reporters they were to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Objective reporting was deemed not merely old fashioned, but immoral. The reporter was to take the side of the oppressed. And in race reporting, that meant coloring the news for the benefit of Blacks, who were by definition, the oppressed. And so academe and the media melded into the academedia complex.
Other issues were also fused with the new, politically correct mission of the communication majors. For example, as the method of affirmative action became clearer in practice, (basically a way to give the job or scholarship to a lesser qualified or unqualified minority and deny it to the best qualified, if he were white.) To justify these practices of denying equal opportunity to whites, the Left developed the theory of "white male privilege." According to this, all whites were privileged, and to create a level playing field, preferences had to be granted to minorities, even rich ones. The whites who did not understand this justification, were clearly racists, and probably deserving of a Fanonesque tutoring session (i.e., violence).
The curriculum of schools has changed drastically to incorporate many of the Leftist theories. No longer is the West applauded as the center of a civilization that freed many men and women of drudgery, that provided light throughout the night, that sped people and goods across a continent on rail, and even in the air, - now the West is depicted as oppressive. Whites smashing the wonderful civilizations of the Aztecs, of Africa, of wherever. And white oppression must be fought. Multiculturalism is the glorification of all cultures - except oppressive, colonial, racist, white culture. The West became the enemy in many of America's schools.
So the "youths" who roam about lurking to beat whites (and sometimes Asians) are simply affirming what they have been taught in their multicultural curriculum and in the general media. So, poor, raped, Tawana Brawley - persecuted and raped by the KKK policeman, for a year was a page-1 story for Rev. Al Sharpton to inform reporters about the evils of whites. It was a hoax; but the Left did not care. Think of all the educational material that Rev. Sharpton could present to the cameras during that year. And poor, O. J. Simpson - that white bitch of a wife was receiving OJ's alimony to squander on that Jewish waiter! They surely deserved what happened to them - whoever might have killed them. Another big racial even occurred in the Howard Beach section of New York City in which a Black was killed by autos as he fled a group of angry white youths. Even a year following the event, there was a television movie about it to remind America of white racism and its murderous consequences. Yet, at about the same time, in Milwaukee a white youth, fleeing a group of Black youths, jumped in Lake Michigan, and drowned. There was no publicity about the death of Maldonado in Milwaukee. Maldonado was just a white. Instead of running to the lake, he should have simply let the Blacks beat the s___ out of him, and then he might still be alive. The media and those who control it could not state blatantly the main difference between these stories. One is a rare example of white racism; the other an all too common example of Black racism. The media choose the spotlight the rare example, hoping to convince that it is the common type of racism. The media also dismiss the more common type of racist attacks, because that would show Blacks in an unfavorable light. The media rationally choose the stories that they will emphasize. They choose those stories that fit their ideology. So, they provide massive coverage to one story, and bury the other.
Even though his mother was white, most people view Barack Obama is Black. George Zimmerman had a Jewish father and an Hispanic mother. But for the Leftist media, like CNN, Zimmerman was identified as the "white" who had brutally murdered the young Trayvon Martin. The point of the Leftist media was to show a wicked white racist murdering an innocent young Black. That story fit the Left-wing agenda. Zimmerman resided in a neighborhood recently targeted by burglaries. He was part of a neighborhood watch, seeking to keep his neighborhood safe. However, the Left objects to that. (To the Left, if you want to live in a safe neighborhood, get rich and live in a gated community. The poor, according to the Left, should have to endure the crazies, the muggers, the rapists, and the Trayvon Martins.) The Left vigorously opposes the 2nd Amendment and the right to own arms to defend oneself; one's loved ones, one's property. Whatever happened in the confrontation between Zimmerman and Martin, the Left media sensationalized the event seeking to make it into a racist white killing an innocent Black. I was not there to witness the event, and it is possible that Zimmerman shot Martin without provocation. However, there are other possibilities. Noteworthy, the Martin family has sought to keep Trayvon's school records sealed. He had been suspended for several days, and there were indications that he was involved with drugs and stolen property. Is it not possible that Trayvon was casing the neighborhood when Zimmerman caught him? But, young Blacks cannot be guilty when confronting a "white" (or even an Hispanic-white) according to the ideology that dominates the academedia complex. Noteworthy also, when the New Black Panther Party called for the apprehension of Zimmerman, dead or alive, this threat did not stir the Department of Justice to protect Zimmerman. After all, Obama marched beside leaders of the NBPP in Alabama and he also shared a platform with them. Some members of the NBPP have called for the murder of all whites, men, women, and children. If Obama could share a platform with them, and have his Attorney General Holder dismiss a lawsuit against the NBPP, why would his Administration object to that party's threats against the Hispanic Zimmerman?
If our media were doing their jobs properly, there would be no need for Flaherty's book. Because the media, on race issues, are dominated by Left-wing ideologues, they consciously try NOT to report stories unfavorable to Blacks. When the story becomes too big to suppress, then the media spins it to distort, with the objective to make the Blacks appear in the most favorable light.
What would happen if the media reported honestly? The Left would have "the community" (Blacks and some radical whites) march on the station, organize boycotts of the sponsors' products, gather signatures from academe and tax-exempt Leftist groups like the NAACP, the ACLU, for law suits, demand firings of the honest reporters, etc. The station would quickly cave, and to prove its sincerity, it would grant a large contribution to some of the protesting organizations, fire the reporter or have him sent to an appropriate re-education center on sensitivity training. The station would also promise that in the future no such honest reports would be aired.
Sadly, since the 1960s, one cannot report the truth about race and crime in the major media in America. Flaherty's book is not published by a major publisher. One can read about these incidents daily in some internet sites like Jared Taylor's American Renaissance. He includes clips about racial crime in the US, and in addition, racial conflict and crime in Sweden, the UK, the Netherlands, and other nations.
Those old enough may recall black/white photographs from the 1930s of refugees fleeing Nazi Europe. The pictures make one sympathize with the victims of the bullying, belligerence, and terror they endured in storm-troopered Europe. With WWII won, America's economy turned from building tanks to automobiles and consumer goods, and this nation embarked upon a period of great prosperity. Some could now afford cars, and even new homes in the suburbs. But others preferred to remain in the neighborhoods they knew from childhood. They did not want to move to the green burbs; they preferred to stay near the church their parents had helped build, the one in which they had been confirmed, been married, etc. Then came the riots of the late 1960s. The threats, the shots, the burned cars, burned buildings, beatings. The Blacks doing this did not wear fancy storm-trooper uniforms, but they were just as racist, just as threatening, just as brutal. Now many more whites found it necessary to flee the city. Like the Jews of Hitler's Europe, they had to leave, sometimes quite quickly, out of fear. They often suffered financial loss in the process of a fast relocation. Yes, they went to the burbs, and often loved it; like the Jews who came to America and loved it. But many of these whites were driven from their homes. White flight was a reality. While the academedia complex can only envision white racism, it was the brutality of Black racism that caused many to flee. (Jack Cashill's Sucker Punch: The Hard Left Hook that Dazed Ali and Killed King's Dream describes how Black racism led to the collapse of his home neighborhood in Newark, NJ, in the late 1960s.)
What were whites fleeing? Black racism. Black crime. Black "culture" (loud, noisy music, vulgarity, shouting, arguments, hatred of whites, etc. Why is there such crime? Because liberal judges do not require Blacks to abide by the same rules required of whites. If they commit crimes, their punishment will often be lighter. A Black who attacks a white can get away with it. So why not do it? It will not make news. It is deleted from the newspaper. If it does make news, it will somehow be the white man's fault. The Black is exonerated. OJ was declared not guilty and across the nation Black university students cheered. (Stick it to whitey!)
Also telling, shortly after being elected President, Ronald Reagan was shot and severely wounded by attempted assassin John Hinckley. The crime occurred in Washington, D.C., a city overwhelmingly Black in population. A jury was selected to hear the case - eleven Blacks and one white. Rather than convict the attempted murderer, the jury found him not guilty due to insanity! Do you think that jury would have reached a similar verdict had Hinckley attempted to assassinate Obama?
Flaherty writes about the past two years, atrocity after atrocity. So many attacks by Blacks against whites that it no longer seems a tragedy, but a Stalinist statistic. What might the numbers be? Though she includes all crimes and all races, Ann Coulter includes an important paragraph in her new book, Mugged: Racial Demagoguery from the Seventies to Obama - "Between 1960 and 1973, the number of FBI index crimes - which are serious offences such as murder, rape, robbery, arson, assault, kidnapping and burglary - nearly tripled from 2,019,600 offences a year to 5,891,924. Hundreds of thousands of Americans had to die, be raped, or have their property destroyed or stolen because liberals had some neat new ideas about crime."(p. 12-13)
Recall Stalin emphasized how one can conceive of an individual death, but not the death of a million. That is a statistic. Yet, Flaherty's endless recording of one after another attack on whites by Black racists has a more powerful impact. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. It is not a single incident, but the cumulative effect of reading about attacks on whites by Black racists. Equally important, the equally cumulative effect of the consistent cover-ups and lies by the mass media and the government officials to hide or excuse the Black attacks.
Happily, not all Blacks have taken up the war against whites. Many Blacks prefer peace with white people. But too often Blacks vote for the liberal politicians and judges who refuse to crack down on Black crime. If they are jurors, they too often vote to let guilty Blacks go free.
What has happened to America in recent decades is a tragedy. In reality, the elite have encourage Blacks to make war on whites. It is a war consciously ignored by the academedia complex. It is a war encouraged and subsidized by the extremely wealthy foundations (most of which are dominated by the Left). It is at present a one-sided war, for only one groups is involved in the aggression. The other is victimized. The media pretend there is no war. The politicians appease the aggressors. Statistics and tragedies.
Despite the flaws of typographical errors, misspelt and omitted words, despite the lack of analysis and index, despite the sloppy look and oversized print, White Girl Bleed A Lot provides accurate description of the continuing race war that the mainstream media consciously refuse to report.
The press and the IRS both hate middle class whites is the same hateful fashion...
It’s pathetic and horrifying. Whole sections of major American cities are essentially “off limits” to White people. Cities that our grandparents literally built. (I can point out multiple buildings in Detroit that my family built, going back to the early 1900s)
To say it’s “culture” isn’t really an answer. Groups have responsibility for their culture, too, at some point. No one has made the black community embrace pimps as their heros, and prostitutes as their role models for woman. And criminal clowns for their leaders.
Whites have been ethnically cleansed from large swaths of America, and the Hispanics now aim to do the same thing, perhaps on a larger level.
that has always sort of been one of the root causes of the way all this has played out
whites in parts of the US mostly immune to all this have because of their numbers, self congratulatory good intentions, and naivete about race have usually voted to force those of us who live where race does indeed matter ...to behave
to submit to the will of how white voters in nearly universal white areas think we white folks should interact coping with large minority populations that they themselves only see on TV or while driving by from the safety of an elevated freeway as they gaze out on the row house or project slums...or they crow about how "oh I know a black guy...there is ONE in my town...goes to my Lutheran church and bowls and hey...he's even GOP voter"
sad thing is now it's too late anyhow...because of all that we have allowed in enough non whites so that they will be running the show soon enough even without white liberal help from up north or out west
ask any white person living in a black/Mexican run city how it's going so far...look at South Africa...why are folks here so naive as to think we will be different when all the evidence so far is not encouraging baring a few exceptions that Beck and Hannity trot out for effect
my homestate is lost due to the changes forced on us at gunpoint...and has brought about realizations of fears dating back centuries
you can call me racist...whatever..it's too late for all that
the genie is out of the bottle and the great naive experiment has failed
many blacks prefer white people period..
Yes. True. Much more true than anyone is willing to admit. I know at least a dozen black woman who refuse to date black men, for instance.
I helped a friend buy a used car from a black woman a few weeks ago. She said (to the black friend who was buying the car, I wasn't really part of the conversation, just overheard it) "It's a nice neighborhood, not too many black people here"
There are good everyday black citizens who are trapped in those ‘gangster run’ hellholes.
When dems picked the ‘winners and losers’ in black communities they dumped responsible black leaders in exchange for self appointed poverty pimps. We can thank our lucky stars we don’t have to go into those neighborhoods - how you like to be condemned to live there?
And Hugh Murray coined this gem: “the academedia complex”
sad thing is now it's too late anyhow...because of all that we have allowed in enough non whites so that they will be running the show soon enough even without white liberal help from up north or out west
But MN still asks the operative question:
So whats the solution?
At the national level fixing this would require a lot more political will than we have shown in a long time. The most important thing is to defeat any Amnesty bill, but that's only a first step, the follow on must be to deport, or cause to self-deport, the illegals.
It's almost impossible to imagine that second step being taken though, isn't it?
Failing that we seem certain to become the new Rhodesia / Zimbabwe. What is the secret sauce to "America" that prevents us from living through the "Demographics is Destiny" disaster that our leaders have engineered for us. At least at a national level as control of the levers of the ever more aggressive and vindictive FedGov will fall the the ANC, er Democratic Party for whom things like punishing the (overwhelmingly White) Tea Party are going to be par for the course.
So that leaves, probably as our only realistic hope the States. Some form of secession might allow some form of limited Republican government to continue on this continent.
If we lack the willpower to exercise that option then our grandkids will likely grow up as a discriminated and disliked minority in this nation.
Sad, but that's what I see. I don't see turning around the Juggernaut that is in place right now. No amount of blogging and educating will happen fast enough to change the people who are here and are set on changing the nation.
I suppose the other alternative is a giant "RESET" brought about by something like a financial collapse. As attractive as the scenario is to many people I don't see that happening either. I think as the saying goes "there is a lot of ruin in a nation". I suspect we are going to see just how much, and it will surprise everyone, particularly the economic gloom and doomers like Peter Schiff and their many second tier followers like John Galt Fla, etc.
"The Dems" in charge in places like Detroit are other blacks. Black choose the leaders they want, and yes, they have picked a bunch of terrible people, repeatedly in one city after another that they are in the majority in.
I don't think people are "condemned to live" in black-run hell holes. There are many many equal housing laws - if you can qualify to live in a nice apartment they are not going to reject you because you are black. The penalties for that are too huge, and most white people WANT to prove they are not racist and give black people every break they can.
The sad facts are that many, many blacks have things like multiple evictions, felony convictions, outstanding arrest warrants and other factors that make it hard for them to get "out of the projects".
On both an individual and collective level blacks need to look in the mirror and solve their own problems. The days when "the man" was keeping them down are long gone. In fact, looking around "the man" is a black dude!
I think when TSHTF, TN will be at least 3 regional entities, and the problems in Memphrica will be very different from the problems in Chattanooga or Knoxville, not to mention east of there.
And when all the PC crap is swept aside as an unaffordable artifact during sudden do-or-die times, a new/old reality might emerge with astonishing speed. If you catch my drift and I know you do.
That is an impressive article.
The problem isn't black people. The problem is white people losing their edge, even the Irish and Italians who even 20 years ago wouldn't put up with this. The problem is white people relying on the system to protect them.
Do what needs to be done, leave the cops out of it, keep the mouth shut, and remember to keep the mouth shut. Did I forget to mention to keep the mouth shut?
There's been a lot of discussion of the first part, but no authoritative word yet on whether that's true. It's more likely that it isn't true. Bob Dylan aside, Zimmerman isn't necessarily a Jewish name.
As for the second part, Zimmerman's mother was at least part "Afro-Peruvian." How that makes him a"White Hispanic" is one of life's mysteries.
On both an individual and collective level blacks need to look in the mirror and solve their own problems. The days when "the man" was keeping them down are long gone. In fact, looking around "the man" is a black dude!
You're right on the above Jack - but there was a time before massive welfare, urban renewal and liberals ' 60's type ideas' became entrenched that the best of the black community could have been saved. Maybe 30 years from now when the United States is balkanized into warring ethnic third world groups that were not assimilated we'll look back with the same regret at an opportunity missed.
