Every now and then you come across an article that folks just need to read. This one written by Michael Smith entitled, Confessions of a Public Defender and originally posted at American Renaissance on May 9, 2014 is one of those articles.
It is a profound and deeply disturbing piece, which, as we end 2014, we all need to comprehend as we move towards the 50th anniversary of the Great Society initiatives of President Lyndon Baines Johnson.
Smith articulates that which ails the black community the real discussion we should be having on race, not that of victimhood and the further expansion of the welfare nanny-state.
He begins by saying, I am a public defender in a large southern metropolitan area. Fewer than ten percent of the people in the area I serve are black but over 90 per cent of my clients are black. The remaining ten percent are mainly Hispanics but there are a few whites.
I have no explanation for why this is, but crime has racial patterns. Hispanics usually commit two kinds of crime: sexual assault on children and driving under the influence. Blacks commit many violent crimes but very few sex crimes. The handful of whites I see commit all kinds of crimes. In my many years as a public defender I have represented only three Asians, and one was half black.
He presents his observations based on his personal experience with black defendants, and his words will no doubt inflame many:
My experience has also taught me that blacks are different by almost any measure to all other people. They cannot reason as well. They cannot communicate as well. They cannot control their impulses as well. They are a threat to all who cross their paths, black and non-black alike.
It will take you only 5 minutes to read this article and I would bet youll read it again. Then ask yourself, is this something you hear Al Sharpton addressing? Or President Obama, Eric Holder, Jeh Johnson or Jesse Jackson?
Im quite sure the progressive socialist left will criticize me for sharing this article thats just who they are they hate the truth. But if there is a war to be fought, it is for the soul of the inner city and the black community. The facts and observations in this are not shocking to me. They are quite well known, but the manner in which the writer so eloquently presents them is quite commendable.
We cannot begin to have a conversation about race until we are willing to honestly address the facts.
As Smith says at the end, I do know that it is wrong to deceive the public. Whatever solutions we seek should be based on the truth rather than what we would prefer was the truth.
You obviously didn’t read the article.
If what he said matters to you, read it all.
You’ll find he’s not black. If you read it with a critical and open mind, you’ll find that you’re wrong on most of what you posted.
Nope.
I work in the computer/network Service Desk industry and $$$ has nothing to do with cognitive ability.
About half of the staff is black.
All aspects of the analysts performance are measured to the second, documentation that was utilized, recorded calls analyzed and scored, percentage of first call resolution, follow up, research and resolution, etc, etc.
95% of the blacks on the desk comprise the entire bottom half of the stats for the desk.
After the AA hiring of the tech it is "sorry, private sector looks at only the facts."
Once they are active on the Desk the difference shocking.
.
Truth is NOT racist.
My experience with black criminality is this: I was robbed three times by black men in California and they got away with it all three times even though I personally chased one down the street.
And my sister was raped and beaten in her home in Seattle by a black man when she was 18. He was convicted. But at trial he had his girlfriend testify that he was at the unemployment office that day so it could not be him. It was Sunday.
So from my experience the author is somewhat correct. Sex crimes were 25% of the criminal activity blacks have touched my life personally with.
as scripture says....he who does not work, does not eat...
Well ... what that public defender says is quite true!
Mark. Excellent post.
In todays world being a truly ‘black’ person does not equate to being of a separate and distinctive race such as western Europe or western Europe or Asian. Black persons are being nurtured to believe they are in rights of all other cultures from cities to nations. Lyndon Johnson’s attempt to create or recreate a societal Tower of Babel was flawed from the get-go but he with his enormous ego could not and did not know the history of such attempts. Shockley had it right as to distribution characteristics among different races. Some races just have different appearances and will have to accept such until human creation is changed.
Yes, I remember watching it. I remember laughing with his insight. He started the segment with, "I love black people...". That sent the crowd into a whooping, hollering frenzy of anticipation. Then he finished the line with, "...but I can't stand n-----s". The crow burst with laughter and applause. Rock nailed it.
Yup,he spelled it out in clear,"plain" language....that most black people are hard working and respectable while a minority are lousy,ignorant punks.
Of course a fair number of whites are just as bad.Decency and worthlessness,in the US,knows no boundaries of race,ethnicity,etc.
Bump and bump. The real crime of the recent race agitators is making the voice of a minority of a minority appear to be a rumbling of a growing consensus. These bahstids succeeded with the gay marriage thing.
Regardless of race.... the destruction of the family unit (ie children born to one parent out of wedlock) and the removal of God from our society.... parrallel the increased problems in all races...
Right now the African-American communities are feeling the brunt... but guess what... whites are starting to catch-up....
Pretty straight forward.... until we address this, IMHO nothing will change.... but who is listening....
Much easier to blame someone else or say it has to do with racism or lack of monies/opportunities...
Culture or intellect... what's your best guess..
Maybe we need a thread dealing with our personal experiences with blacks... They never stop talking about the pain caused when they were called the “N” word 30 years ago - ‘once’ by an old lady...
Many of us also have stories - and they’re a lot worse than being called a name.
Absolutely the most ignorant statement ever posted on FreeRepublic.
Blatant LIE!
