The Oregonian ^ | 02/11/2026 | Zane Sparling

A random altercation outside Blanchet House ended with one man dead from stab wounds and now his killer sentenced to life in prison.

Jesse James Herold, 35, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder Wednesday as part of a plea deal that dropped more than a dozen other open cases against him. Though sentenced to life, he has a possibility of parole in 25 years.

"..He appears supremely white.."

As per the "Fury" SOP.
It's pretty blatant.

The truth of it all is every demographic has their ferals. Some more so than others, tho'.

When did Furry last post an article with a picture of a black perpetrator?

Never, you say?

Furry must be an anti-white racist, because statistics:

Convictions:

Violent Crime: 2.6 Black / 1.0 White

Murder: 6.4 Black / 1.0 White

Robbery: 7.1 Black / 1.0 White

Aggravated Assault: 2.1 Black / 1.0 White

*******

Furry be raciss! Because statistics.

Portland is very white for a major metropolitan city, so it comes as no surprise that you find a lot of white criminals. Hispanic gangs have crowded out the black gangs as they outnumber them 2:1.

The salient point in this article is “plea deal that dropped more than a dozen other open cases against him.”

Had this man been properly prosecuted and jailed this murder would not have occurred.

This is just SOP for Portland.

"sine and cosine functions"

Interesting!

Graphing
the function
of a a downward slope?

Jeffry Epstein, well known Mathematics Instructor, also had (has?) a bramble or barbed wire tattoo on his upper left arm. (H/T to bitt for link!)

Epstein Tattoo

Face tattoos say "I am tribal and really do not want to work and be part of your society."

Besides memorializing a drunken visit to a Tattoo parlor and telling us that you are not worried about lymphoma from defective tattoo ink, here is some of the confused and contradictory symbolism assigned to barnyard fencing as body art:

What does a Barbed wire tattoo mean?

This is tiresome.

From now on in this never ending obfuscation war by Furry, I will try to focus on only posting these statistics each time. Furry believes it’s racist to notice excessive black violence. I contend that problem cannot be addressed by calling people who notice it racist. So I’m going to jam these statistics into the public sphere each and every time the issue arises on either side, and I’ll do it specifically for the geography in question. Forever.

Question:

What are the proportions by race (excluding Latino from White) of the population of Multnomah County compared to the violent crime convictions?

Grok:

Population Proportions by Race in Multnomah County (2024 Estimates, Excluding Latino from White)
Based on U.S. Census Bureau data: 
• White (non-Hispanic): 65.6%
• Hispanic/Latino (any race): 14.4%
• Black or African American: 6.4%
• Asian: 8.4%
• American Indian and Alaska Native: 1.7%
• Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander: ~0.7%
• Two or more races: 5.3% (includes mixed-race individuals not categorized above)

Proportions of Violent Crime Convictions by Race

• White (non-Hispanic): ~54%
• Hispanic/Latino: ~16%
• Black or African American: ~28%
• Asian: ~3%
• American Indian and Alaska Native: ~0.4%
• Other groups (e.g., NHPI, two or more races): Minimal or not separately reported

UM Editorial:

Blacks commit crime 337% more often than average in Multnomah County, Oregon.

It is not racist to notice.

Posting lots of white guys getting convicted of violent crime does not make this statistic go away.

(28% violent convictions / 6.4% population) - 1

-——• American Indian and Alaska Native: 1.7%-——

Many years ago. I had a contract with a government agency that required paying the government established wage rates. (trade union regional rates in a right to work state). Part of the requirement was to report ethnicity numbers.

I reported one “Eskimo” in my employ. That was the word on the payroll reporting form.

One morning my book keeper came to me and said I needed to talk to the guy on the phone.

It was a guy calling from Atlanta to grill me as to how there was an Eskimo working on a government contract in East Tennessee. The TVA office in Knoxville reported the Eskimo fact to some government office in Atlanta which followed up on the very suspicious claim

The fact was, the kid was in fact a full-blooded Eskimo who followed his girlfriend here. Her father did not like him. Eventually he was arrested for being drunk and was jailed where he is said to have committed suicide

If blacks reduced their rate of murder to the same level as whites in America, how many black lives would be saved?

Grok:

Based on the latest available data from 2024, the U.S. homicide victimization rate for Black Americans was approximately 17.51 per 100,000, while the rate for White Americans was approximately 2.65 per 100,000.  The Black population in the U.S. was approximately 46.6 million. 

If the Black homicide victimization rate were reduced to match the White rate, the expected number of Black homicide victims would drop from about 8,158 to about 1,237. This would result in approximately 6,921 fewer Black homicide deaths annually.

*****

I care about saving 6,921 black lives per year from murder by talking about a solution.

Furry cares about nasty memes to make herself feel better while doing nothing.
