Talking Points Memo, 8/27/14:
Conservative pundit Ben Stein appeared on Newsmax on Tuesday to discuss the fatal police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., and challenged the use of the term "unarmed" to describe Brown.
Stein was discussing the shooting with host Steve Malzberg and said the use of the term "unarmed" to describe Brown, who was "apparently on marijuana," was akin to "calling Sonny Liston unarmed or Cassius Clay unarmed."
"He wasn't unarmed," Stein said. "He was armed with his incredibly strong, scary self.
Stein mentioned both Michael Brown, the unarmed teen killed by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, and Trayvon Martin, the unarmed white teen killed by George Zimmerman, who was not a police officer, but a member of a neighborhood watch.
What to say? Here we have almost every meme born of 400 years of American race hatred rolled into one neat, bespectacled package in the form of Ben Stein.
We have the savage black buck whose dark skin and steely gaze threaten whites by simply existing in an unchained state.
We have the insistence that blacks submit to white men without complaint, who then have the right to maim or kill them should they 'mouth off' or fail to 'know their place.'
We have the return of black life as forfeit to any white man with the whim to take it and the gun with which to do it (open carry, anyone?)
All told, we have the idea of blackness as a weapon, and thus use of other weapons are justified in protecting whites against it....

Did he pull those bullet points out of some dark place?
Does anyone here know “conservative” that believes those assertions?
The headline is so Bizarre why would we need to read it?
Shove it.
Not buying the act any more.
Try another set of parlor tricks.
So this POS is blaming a Jew for the breakdown in his “own” culture????
Freeking geniuses they have at the Huff and Puff Post.....
I blame this one white guy for the breakdown in Black Culture and his initials are L, B, and J....
Actually the whites that benefit from the pain of the poor is the white left that keeps the poor down so they may maintain their position as the ruling class.
It would be hard to find more hyperbole than this, in one place.
No - it’s the Liberal MSM that justifies racial injustice by trying, judging and convicting in the press.
Who would have guessed?
Teens? They were only about 11 years old and they were both tied up and terrorized before they were brutally shot by their sadistic, psychopathic murderers.
Or something like that.
You would think after all the articles saying the same thing, and the amount of time that has passed, at least one of these dolts could actually formulate a new argument, one that hasn’t already been debunked. Brown/Martin will absolutely happen again, and these idiots have no one to blame but themselves.
How come when an 18 year old soldier is killed in action they don’t call him a “teen”?
One would start to think that this “argument” is all they know...
Yes, you just might start to think that they weren’t ever taught anything different, nor were they curios to find out anything different.
You just might start to think that...
Where is the mega-barf alert?!
and yes, for the pedants - I see that I typo’d “curious”.
Hey, just thought of something.
Wasn’t Rice “unarmed” in the elevator??
Then why was he fired from the NFL??
smh
And lastly, it must be sad to walk around all the time thinking only of your skin color.
Very, very sad.
.........a real war will take place soon.
Not every war is about fighter jets, tanks, mortars, rpg etc.
And it is so obvious how every day the media blitzkrieg takes place telling all who listen that whites are horrific, evil racists.
Here's a bullet point pulled out of decades of FBI stats:
