Bey accused of running down strip club bouncer

SAN FRANCISCO -- A young Black Muslim leader already charged with vandalizing a West Oakland liquor store was jailed today for allegedly using his BMW to run down a bouncer after being thrown out of a San Francisco strip club, police said.

Yusuf Bey IV, 20, son of the late Black Muslim leader Yusuf Bey, was booked on suspicion of attempted murder and aggravated assault after he allegedly ran over one bouncer and tried to hit a second with his car outside the New Century Theater on Larkin Street, authorities said. He was being held without bail.

"They basically were being entertained by the women and they sort of become a little rambunctious and the management tells them to tone it down,'' said Lt. Leroy Lindo of the police general work detail.

After another dispute involving the group in one of the club's upstairs private rooms, Bey and his friends asked for their room admission fee back and management agreed, Lindo said.

Back downstairs, Lindo said, one of Bey's friends tried to grope one of the dancers. "That's when the management said, 'It's time for you to go,' '' he said.

"As they are leaving, one of the people in the group hauls off and hits a bouncer,'' Lindo said.

The ensuing fight spilled out onto the street, police said. Bey allegedly got into his car and hit one bouncer, who suffered non-life threatening injuries, and barely missed a second.

Police found Bey and the car, with the personalized plate "DR BEY," in an alley a short time later. He was arrested at 12:35 a.m.

Bey was free on $90,000 bail in the Oakland liquor store case, in which he is accused of felony vandalism, false imprisonment

Part One: The Violence

Olasunkanmi Onipede should know a little something about 
torture. An immigrant from Nigeria, he left behind a country
 that by 1994 had fallen under the iron hand of General Sani
 Abacha, who unleashed a plague of mass arrests, kangaroo 
courts, and the practice of lashing political prisoners 
until their backs were open wounds. But now that he was safe
 upon the shores of America, Onipede must have thought he 
would never encounter anything like that again. Then he met 
Nedir Bey. ...

"The black man, Bey claims in his numerous True Solutions sermons, is God. Not made in the image of God, but divinity itself. All black men are essentially avatars of Allah, the wellspring of all creative thought. In fact, Bey insists that the black man has invented every single tool, every idea, every system of government and social organization. White people, by contrast, are genetically incapable of creativity or invention. "The Caucasian has never created one thing in 6,000 years," Bey said in a 2001 speech commemorating Black History Month.

The only endeavor the white man can claim as his own, Bey says, is the science of "tricknology," the art of being devious and underhanded. "We black people are not up to tricknology," Bey said in the same speech. "We don't know tricknology, we cannot master it. How many black magicians do you see today? Like Siegfried and Roy, guys who can make elephants disappear, we can't trick like that."

How could an obviously inferior race have mastered the children of God? Bey says the answer lies in ancient history. Six thousand years ago, in a mythic black utopia on the Arabian peninsula, a mad scientist named Yakub invented the ghastly science of genetic engineering. In a series of secret experiments, he "grafted" the pallid, inferior gene from the black man, progressively bleaching his subjects until they grew brown, yellow, and finally white. As C. Eric Lincoln put it in his classic study, The Black Muslims in America, these experiments "peopled the world with 'blue-eyed devils,' who were of comparatively low physical and moral stamina -- a reflection of their polar distance from the divine black."

White people scuttled among the citizens of this utopia, spreading their tricknology and fostering division among the original black man. But black men discovered the white man's plot and drove whites from civilization, exiling them to the hills of Europe. After 2,000 years of savagery, the black diplomat Moses traveled to Europe and taught the white man civilization again, in a gesture of reconciliation. But as the white man is inherently devilish, he used civilization to enslave the black man and dominate the globe. Soon, Bey preaches, a racial judgment day will arrive, and black men will retake their rightful place as stewards of the planet. "

That article is one of the most fascinating articles I've read in many years, it covers so much of everything that is discussed on freerepublic all in one incredibly well written newspaper article,
