Fayetteville, NC: Man Arrested for Spray-Painting Swastikas Across Multiple Properties — But He Doesn’t Match the Media’s Favorite Storyline

Another day, another “hate crime” that doesn’t fit the script the media loves to push.

Taquon Jameek Vereen, a black man, was arrested in Fayetteville, North Carolina, for spray-painting swastikas on multiple properties. Police say he’s responsible for the vandalism that had the usual suspects immediately blaming white supremacists and “MAGA extremism.”

Instead, the suspect is black. Once again, the narrative collapses the second the facts come out.

FAKE hate crimes ARE the norm. White middle class, middle ages Christian men are the LEAST likely to commit hate crimes.

Has there ever been a real true actual “hate” crime? Seems like almost 100% of these turn out to be done by minorities.

Taquon Jameek Vereen, a black man, ...

It's a good thing they identified his race because, who would have known?

Oh, there are racists of every stripe out there. But the demand exceeds the supply by quite a lot, so they manufacture most of them.

Among the first I recall was in Iowa City, Iowa. College town, for context. Aka “People’s Republic of Johnson County”. Has a “Nuclear Free Zone” at the city line. You get the idea.

About 1985 a black guy said his Mercedes-Benz was vandalized with spray painted Swastikas. Much hand wringing, candlelight vigils, weeping editorials in the newspapers (remember those?). His version of events quickly fell apart upon questioning and he confessed to vandalizing his own car.

Local body shops recall him shopping around for a new paint job in the weeks leading up to the “incident”. I think the plan was to submit an insurance claim.

To add insult to injury, even though it turned out to be a fraudulent incident, the usual water walkers in Iowa City had nothing to say other than “Well, it COULD have happened, and that’s just as bad!!!”

When will these fools realize that it’s NEVER MAGA doing this crap. And I would assume real Nazis are happy staying under the radar until the “Great Day of the Rope” or whatever they call it.

This will come as a blow to his Uncle Ben, a legendary entertainer, who's still with us at 79.

I don't know if they're related or not, but it's a very unusual name.

For Uncle Ben’s sake I hope they’re not related.
