Almost gives you hope things could change.
Almost.
As a public high school teacher, I assure you this gansta culture is literally killing black youth. If this were happening to white kids we'd all be standing up screaming to have it stopped. Because it's mostly damaging black kids whites are afraid to point out the damage. Somehow, white people have no standing to tell blacks anything. Very few blacks have the nerve to do what this man did. Good for him.
Crazy, but there it is.
Here's a social experiment you can try. Go to a MacDonalds or a Burger King or any other fast food place that asks you to clean up your table when you've finished eating. See who actually does.
Are you talking Center City in Philidelphia? Seesh, I had no idea, I just looked it up on the map and almost stayed close to Liberty Park when we were were there a week ago.
I decided to stay at Penns Landing instead, It just looked nicer. No idea that it may be safer too. Maybe I'm wrong. That's why i avoid cities.
Indeed it was.. His storys in the article are duplicated thousands of times hourly across America.. with no black person to stand up.. and expose it..
Not all but very many black people are becomeing spoiled affirmative americans..
The worm has turned and the pendalum has swung..
The future will not be pretty... Black culture is toxic..
Toxic to all of any race including especially black people..
RAP is harbinger of bad tidings.. and is poisonous..
Did anybody see the Paula Zahn show last night? The title was "hip hop....art or poison?" 55% of live viewers polled said it was POISON. One of the guests was the virulent anti-white college professor michael eric dyson who blamed whitey for the failure of everything black. Never before in the history of this great nation has there been a group or people (blacks) that continues to blame so many of it's own shorting comings on other people (whites). And Paula (the good little guilty white liberal) played right along. The show was pathetic.
Thanks for posting that.
The courage of this writer gives me hope.
"Man is he going to be receiving some hate mail."
One of dim Gangstas will likely put a cap in his ass.
These incidents happened a few years back....usually the drunken riots are limited to Eagles games (DON'T come to the Linc with the visiting team's jersey on). We can hold large gatherings (Live 8, any 4th of July, Mummer's Parade) without too much trouble these days.
Center City is one of the safest areas of Philly, especially around Independence Mall. The bad parts of town are well away from there.
I'll be writing on this subject (again) this weekend.
Only problem with calling them the "Black KKK" is that the white KKK was an enforcement arm of the Democrat Party.
This group of thugs are just punk-ass criminals. To call them organized is propping up their intelligence more than should be.
Words cannot express how great this article is.
I'm with my neighbor Sterm on this one.
Not really much to worry about in Center City 99.5% of the time. In fact, that's what made "Da Greek" so disturbing. You go into North Philadelphia, and you've got to be looking for trouble, but in Center City, you have a general expectation of safety and civility.

That's not a joke either. You know, I've seen a lot of games in Philly (I'm speaking more of The Vet than LFF or CBP) and I've seen a lot of fights. They cut across race, age, sex, and income, but there's one unifying factor: The participants ALWAYS had it coming to them. Wearing the other team's jersey is a good way of telling some hammer-head that you've got it coming to you.
Owl_EagleIf what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
It has not the quality of an insinuation. It is an openly proclaimed principle. The leaders decry the unequal representation of blacks in the more highly educated professions while at the bottom, in the schools education is proclaimed "white" and shunned. Those who study are intimidated, sometimes beaten for their presumption and are certainly socially ostracized. So Education is a White Man's tool of oppression and Orientals and Hindus and Nigerians and Lebanese use that tool to become part of the "oppressor" class very successfully. It is a wonder that so many urban blacks are so intent on living their lives as oppressees, abjuring utterly advancement other than that advancement that comes from a career in petty and not so petty crime, most of which constitutes oppression of other blacks. It is a lost cause for most of the aspirants because there is not much room at the top and less in the rising ranks of the crime industry and it comes with a high mortality rate.
I am sure the government will nip those winds in the bud with more massive programs. Government programs and the Great Society pretty much created and nurtured the situation that Whitlock and Cosby are trying to rectify.
I couldn't agree more. Of course, it is now entrenched in academe. It takes at least a generation to purge academe of its current flavor of indoctrination.
He can have some of mine....
Actually, that about sums it up, the essence of the truth that is. This journalist, Jason Whitlock, seems to have captured the essence of the 'new KKK' pretty succinctly. I wonder how long it will take to deal with the reality he enumerates? Too long, you can bet on that, just like it took too damn long to end the obscenity of forced social segregation once the heinous obscenity of slavery was ended. Come to think of it, Jason is still having to write about the same thing, forced social segregation. Sheesh ...
