I didn’t think it would be popular.

“ It is the poor and the working poor - people of color! - in urban areas, who are the overwhelming recipients of violent crimes like rape and murder.”

True but irrelevant. How many of these poor people “of color” step up to identify the savages walking among them? How many of them form Neighborhood Watch groups and patrol their neighborhoods in number?

If the “people of color” in those neighborhoods wanted to stop this they could do it.

But they don’t.

What one tolerates, one gets.

Pretty simple, really.

This is absolutely a must-read article.

Sadly, there are so many more names that can be added. Just a few: Bob and Nancy Strait; Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.

The Christian-Newsom murders were particularly grotesque. But, almost no one outside Tennessee has ever heard of them. Their slaughters did not comport with the leftist storyline (though they did comport with the leftist agenda).

“One day society will finally act in its own defense. It will have to.”

Yup.

“The White-Girl-Gets-Raped/Murdered-By-Generic-Predatory-“Black-Assailant” routine is getting old. But......it serves a purpose.”

Tell that to their families.

“I wonder if it has affected her voting patterns.”

Well, there ARE still some conservatives in L.A., though a great number of them got out (as I did, way back in 1979).

“What one tolerates, one gets. Pretty simple, really.”

That’s a fact.

“Peachy Keenan?” Seriously? This sh** is too funny. And that picture next to her name...smh.

How many of them form Neighborhood Watch groups and patrol their neighborhoods in number? If the “people of color” in those neighborhoods wanted to stop this they could do it.

I understand what you’re saying. But to say the people in urban/inner-city areas live in a different world than we do is an enormous understatement. It might as well be a different planet.

The racial bridge will never truly be crossed. The “Us vs. Them” mentality is far too lucrative. And we might never have been exposed to the brilliant intellect of “Peachy Keenan.”

p.s. - I think “Peachy” might be a ghost.

“The racial bridge will never truly be crossed.”

The Bell Curve is a real thing.

"It is the poor and the working poor - people of color! - in urban areas, who are the overwhelming recipients of violent crimes like rape and murder"

Even according to FBI statistics, even if the victim happens to be a P.O.C, it is more likely that the perp. is black.
There is no way around it.

I believe it was Al Sharpton that said that even he, when walking on a sidewalk, would cross the street to the opposite side if he saw black people approaching.

On the other hand, there is also a BIG difference between small towns and big communities. In a small town, there is a much smaller chance that there would be any violent crime, including from blacks. (that should make you happier..).

"not middle-and-upper class white women"

I don't know what planet you are from, but 'white', 'brown', and 'yellow' are attacked AND murdered too (worldwide even) as much as (probably more than) blacks BY blacks, which is what the article was about.
The issue is that we are not supposed to talk about it, which, if you had read the whole article, you would have understood (unless you didn't WANT to understand).
There was an excellent article posted here a couple of days ago to/about a Rumble video, that if you watched it, sent a clear message TO our Representatives and voting public (us).
The message used actual captured video of the violence and lawlessness of the current culture. We are tired of it.
It needs to stop.


Take it how you want it, but with an attitude like yours, I can understand why we have the issues we have today.

Good post but the quote was from Jessie Jackson.

“There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps... then turn around and see somebody white and feel relieved.” ― Jesse Jackson

Thank you for the correction. I should have looked it up, but I couldn't remember the exact quote :P

👍

Race, Travon Martin was not a murder. It was self defense. Travon was beating Zimmerman's brains out against the street. He attacked Zimmerman. Go find yourself someone else to feel sorry for. Martin got what he deserved.

from “Peachy Keenan’s” article:

For over two years, we heard a long list of murder victims shouted on TV every day. I know by heart the names and murder circumstances of Breonna Taylor, Trayvon Martin, Ahmaud Arbury, George Floyd, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, and many others. 

This new trend is a little different. In fact, I couldn’t help noticing that some particularly gruesome recent killings have been met with a strangely subdued reaction by the mainstream media. Which is weird, because silence is violence.

Irony is nice.

Crime itself is nothing new. Like many of you, I’ve already been a victim of lots of crimes. Multiple cars broken into overnight, wallets pickpocketed at bars, that sort of thing.

Really? Peachy, that’s quite a track record of victimhood. What neighborhoods have you lived in?

I heard sirens in the distance. I waited on the floor of my car until a cop tapped on my window. As he took my witness statement he told me, “This parking lot is a gang hangout for the Bloods. What in the world are you doing here?” “Trying not to be racist!” I almost said.

Drama is compelling, Peachy.

Ah, the Bloods, of course. That would explain why the guys running away had been wearing red, and why the shooter wore a blue baseball cap. (The Bloods are one of the two big L.A. gangs; the other is the Crips. In the 1980s, even white kids from the westside couldn’t go out wearing red or blue, since the Bloods wear red, and Crips wear blue. It is as stupid as it sounds, and if you don’t believe me, go watch the Sean Penn movie Colors.)

”Ah, the Bloods, of course.” Nice writing. Lmfao! Sweet Jesus.

Yes Peachy, we can all learn a lot about crime and gangs from Hollywood portrayals. That’s why it’s called La La Land.

My “racism” had tried to warn me, but I didn’t listen. The cop then beckoned for me to get out and look at something behind my car. There were bullet casings all around my car, inches from my tires. “Your car is in the crime scene so we can’t let you leave,” he told me, as another cop strung yellow investigation tape around my parking spot. 

More compelling drama.

My son emerged from the gym with his team. I stared at him and realized that if they had walked out five minutes earlier, it might have been a bloodbath. Rounds had gone through at least two nearby cars, including one containing the parent of a boy on the team, but by some miracle no other innocent people were hurt.

The cop, a Latino guy, advised me to stay away from the park, since it’s near the projects that “the gang controls.” He was telling me to listen to my inner racist! What if I’d pulled up to the parking lot, taken a look at the group of men, and decided not to go in? Would that have been the right thing to do—or the racist thing to do? 

So Peachy has enrolled her son in a school that’s in gang territory? Hmmm. How did she not know this? Believable? Nope.

Thanks, Peachy, for the heads-up about “The cop, a Latino guy.” Who says people only look at skin color?

————————————————————————-

Afterwards, my husband realized he’d seen him in a local corner store the day before! At the time, he thought the guy looked like the killer, whose picture had been on the news, but unfortunately my husband wasn’t racist enough to alert the authorities. 

Amazing coincidence. Her hubby saw the killer!

The article is over-the-top, overly dramatic, and either embellished beyond belief or just fiction.

Racism is lucrative - for both sides. It gave Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters their careers, along with many others. Now it’s giving a lot of “white conservatives” careers. And it solves nothing.

The media, politicians and other public figures recognize and elevate the Trayvon Martins, Breonna Taylors, George Floyds and others, and ignore the white “victims” ON PURPOSE. To sow division, discord and chaos. To direct each side to hate the other. To make sure you continue to hate black people, and to make sure blacks keep on hating whites. That’s all it’s ever been. Your argument isn’t with me. It’s with the people who control all the narratives and all the purse strings.
