Renee Good Died Disproving White Privilege
FrontPage Magazine ^ | Jan 16 2026 | Daniel Greenfield

Posted on 01/15/2026 11:16:11 PM PST by texas booster

What was Renee Nicole Good thinking when her girlfriend yelled, “Drive baby, drive” and grinning she drove her 4,000 lb Honda Pilot SUV at an armed federal law enforcement officer?

Her last thoughts were likely of her imaginary white privilege and why it failed to protect her.

Good had supported BLM and had inhaled its mythology of ‘the talk’, the idea that law enforcement is a racist institution, that police started out as ‘slave catchers’ and that they exist to persecute black people while giving white people a pass. This would have come as a surprise to the over 2,000 white people who have been shot by police officers since 2020.

White leftists go into confrontations with law enforcement officers wearing their imaginary white privilege like the emperor’s new clothes. This ideological fiction that underpins Marxist identity politics works about as well in real life tests as Marxism does. That’s what Renee found out.

There is no white privilege. Talk or no talk, assault or threaten an armed law enforcement officer with a deadly weapon and you will die. Just ask any of the 542 white people who were killed in 2025. Three days before Good was killed, police shot and killed Rachel Tarrence when she tried to make her escape in a stolen car in Illinois. Tarrence reportedly backed into a squad car, drove at a state trooper and was then shot and killed. Tarrence, like Good, was a white woman.

Tarrence’s shooting never made national news because she was the wrong race and because her death, like those 2,000 deaths, disproves the same narrative that got Good killed. Tarrence’s behavior closely echoed Good’s. Women are rarely shot by police.

The 4% of police shootings involving women generally happen because they escalate the encounter beyond what might lead to a man being shot by not just displaying weapons or threatening to use them, but actively attacking officers or someone else.

That’s what Good did. BLM taught her that people get shot because of race. They don’t.

Asian women are the group least likely to be shot by police, not because law enforcement has a bias towards them, but because they’re the least likely to attack police officers with a deadly weapon. Middle class white women from stable households who aren’t experiencing mental breakdowns very rarely get shot by police for the same reason. What Marxist academics and their media and pop culture allies have popularized as ‘white privilege’ is just behavior.

And making good choices. Good voluntarily took herself out of those categories and got shot.

Police don’t open fire over narratives. They don’t shoot anyone because of skin color. They do open fire in response to threatening behavior. The best predictor of being shot by a cop isn’t race, it’s class, and more specifically, it’s a history of criminal behavior combined with substance abuse and mental illness. Those most likely to be on the receiving end of a police shooting are the ones who disobey police orders, behave erratically, display weapons and attack police.

Renee Good inherited George Floyd’s golden coffin because she hit all of the bases.

In a more perfect world (ruled by a King?) we would not know either name.

I’ve thought about this a lot.

I’m not glad she’s dead. She lost her life doing something incredibly stupid, egged on by people either evil, delusional, or both. It’s a tragedy that she was led down this path. It doesn’t mean we should change our policy just because someone did something stupid; we should do what we can to prevent anyone else from being led, deceived, or otherwise sent down a similarly destructive path.

Perhaps her idiot significant other should be charged for egging her on. If anyone else led her down this path, we should try to degrade their ability to do the same with anyone else.

At any rate, it’s still a tragedy, and I’m not glad she’s dead. I’m angry that she was put on this path. I can’t help but wonder what her ex-husbands are thinking: did a professor, TV personality, online friend, or the idiot bulldyke put her on this? Whatever influence it was, we should destroy its ability to influence anyone else with the same wrath that God used against Sodom and Gomorrah.

There’s a short exchange in the movie Excalibur. I’m too lazy to pop the DVD in to view it so I can quote it exactly, so I’ll just paraphrase it to point out the salient point:

King Arthur asks Merlin what the most important virtue is. Merlin’s answer: “Truth. Always truth. When a man lies, he murders a part of the world.”

I think about this a great deal.

When we think of the devil, what to we deride the most? His lies, his temptation, his deceit. Lies are the bane of our existence and the root of sin.

Renee Good (her last name is ironic, no?) was led (deceived) down a destructive, sinful path. She wasn’t born that way. People, either vicious, hateful, evil, or deluded themselves, led her down that path.

I don’t hate her. I hate the lies that led her down the path that resulted in her death. She was led to believe taking the actions she did was righteous, when they weren’t.

And now she’s dead.

The root of the evil isn’t Renee: it’s the lies behind the tragedy of her death. That’s what we must hate: the LIES, and what we must destroy: the ability of people captured by them to spread them further before they can corrupt more Renee’s.

Jake Tapper and Anderson Cooper are still repeating the lie that “everyone saw on the videos that she was turning the wheel to the right to avoid hitting him” and “everyone knows she wasn’t trying to hit him even though he stepped in front of the car.”

Except she disobeyed repeated orders to stop, then at first backed up, turned to the left a little and then was hearing “drive, baby drive” as she accelerated and then turned to the right. And had enough momentum to go forward to the left where the parked car was slammed into in the left lane. Which is why the agent raised his voice after a thumping sound of being hit, used his weapon and then had internal bleeding.

"What was Renee Nicole Good thinking when her girlfriend yelled, “Drive baby, drive”

She was thinking: "Today is a Good day to die." Or maybe: "No Good deed goes unpunished."

I keep thinking of a scene from the movie The Stand, when someone died and left a note:

“I’m sorry. I was deceived.”

In that case, the devil had deceived that character.

IMO Renee Good was deceived—maybe by her idiot bulldyke companion, maybe by someone earlier who radicalized her, who knows. But she wasn’t born that way. The root of the problem is the lies coming from all around: people online, leftists in the press, you name it. For every Renee Good who gets shot, there are thousands more slowly falling under the influence of the same liars.

Who is at the top? If I had to point to a single person I’d pick George Soros, though to be honest he’s far from alone. I have no idea if the devil outlined in The Stand is real but if so, Soros is either him or his greatest disciple IMO.

I agree. I see her as a victim of her bulldyke spouse and, more fundamentally, of the left.

To be a divorced lesbian poet street activist is pretty much the fulfillment of everything the left would consider good for a woman to be. But it put the pieces in place that led to her getting herself killed. If she had been the normal wife of a normal man — the good life according to conservatives — this never would have happened.

So you don’t believe middle aged Renee Good was responsible for her own actions and that it was someone else’s fault.

🤦‍♂️

Thank you for highlighting those statistics. i did NOT know about them and the numbers.

i looked them up and saw that INDIAN subcontinent Americans have one of the lowest fatal police violence rates in the country, estimated at 0.04 deaths per 100,000.

Indians (dot) can be dark brown skin tones and yet they have a 0.04 per 100,000 while ‘white’ have 39 / 100,000 for men and 1.5/100,000 for white women.

So it is NOT skin color

Then she inherited delusion. Floyd died of a drug overdose induced heart attack.Good died of Darwin Award lead poisoning as a piece of deluded cannon fodder for the whacko SOROS organizations that support the wholesale creation of Aldous Huxley’s “Brave New World.”.

If necessary, we will have CWII and remain free from their fascist machinations.
