Deep South justice in Ferguson
The Washington Post ^ | November 28, 2014 | Colbert I. King

Posted on 11/29/2014 3:20:42 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

My 102-year-old mother-in-law, Henryne Walker Stewart Goode, whom we buried a week ago at the Walker family cemetery in Okolona, Miss., often told an unforgettable story at our kitchen table.

She attended Okolona College, where she was taught English and public speaking by James Raspberry, the father of my late Post colleague, William Raspberry. At one time, in my mother-in-law’s telling, animals on the school’s farm were falling victim to some invading marauder. A school employee discovered the culprit — a dog — and shot it. But the white farmer who owned the dog retaliated, turning up at the school to shoot the employee to death and threaten the school’s president. The school’s president was forced to flee, my mother-in-law said, but nothing happened to the white farmer. That said all we needed to know about Deep South justice of her youth.

An account in the July 4, 1931, edition of the Afro American flushed out the details of this tale, and over 90 years it deviated remarkably little from the facts. The dog that was shot by school employee Ulysses Baskin was part of a pack that attacked the school’s sheep. On May 30, 1925, Baskin was in fact shot by the dog’s owner eight times. School president Wallace A. Battle demanded the arrest of the culprit, but the local grand jury freed him. Battle didn’t flee, though; he resigned in protest when the school’s white trustees would not demand justice for the murder....

RE: "The number of black women sexually assaulted annually by white criminals is a statistical zero. Scoundrels like King need to be exposed for what they are."

That's right. Several years through 2008 DoJ data were released that showed white-on-black sexual assaults statistically were zero.

Below I include a table with the survey results from 1973 - 1982 which includes an explanation of how the survey works and what they did to try to get enough data from ten years of statistical samples. Still could not find enough victims in all cases.

The U.S. Department of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice Statistics Criminal Victimization in the United States, [YYYY] Statistical Tables and their Table 42: "Percent distribution of single-offender victimizations, by type of crime, race of victim, and perceived race of offender" show an inordinate amount of black-on-white crime in some crime categories.

And indeed we should emphasis that these Statistical Tables' data are based upon surveys, they are not FBI/police crime figures.

However since 2009 Table 42 data are no longer made public that I can find. IMO the Obama-Holder Dept. of Just Us will not release facts that disturb their racial demagoguery.

I usually post the Table 42: "Percent distribution of single-offender victimizations, by type of crime, race of victim, and perceived race of offender" "Rape/Sexual assault" for years 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008; but these are the links to actual DoJ files.

Information on how the U.S. Dept. of Justice National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS) works. It might explain why the sexual assault data are so controversial (lack of enough victims to develop stats for the whole population). But it's been that way for decades; nevertheless apparently the Obama-Holder Dept. of Just Us stopped making the information public in 2009.

"In the course of twice-a-year interviews conducted with more than 125,000 people each year in the National Crime Survey, only about 100 cases of rape or attempted rape are reported. When the sample is compared to the size of the general population, it is estimated that each reported incident represents about 1,200 rapes or rape attempts that took place across the country. Nevertheless, 100 cases are too few for detailed statistical analysis. To obtain enough information for a detailed examination of the crime of rape, all cases of female rape reported in the National Crime Survey from 1973 through 1982 were aggregated into a single data set. The set consists of 1,082 cases representing a national total of 1.5 million instances of rape or attempted rape during the decade."
source U.S. Department of Justice

"Even though two-thirds of the rapists are strangers, the offenders are still likely to be the same race as their victims. In assaults involving one offender, victim and offender were the same race 70% of the time for white victims and 89% for black victims. When there were two or more offenders, victims and offenders were the same race 52% of the time for white victims and 75% of the time for black victims (table 8)."

Table 8. Race of female rape victims by race of offenders, 1973-82

Race of Race of victims

Single offender
Number

Other 6 # #
Mixed groups 14 # #

Note: Cases in which race of offenders was not known have been excluded.

# Too few cases in the survey sample to obtain statistically reliable data.

a As perceived by victim.

If the 1995 - 2008 data were to be combined the results would be more valid and likely still look a lot like these 1973 - 1982 data.

RE: "there were also innocent white people killed by blacks in those days."

It continues.. both ways; but though whites outnumber blacks at least 6-to-1 blacks are murdering whites better that 2-to-1. But hey! it's racist to complain.

Table 6 data for multiple years.

FBI Homicides Statistics I omitted showing the combined results and instead just provide references to the FBI data and a summation of white-on-black, black-on-white homicides.

I did not find data for the years 1996 through 2003

www.fbi.gov About Us CJIS UCR Crime in the U.S. Here's the links to most of the FBI tables I referenced above.

Here's 2012

Here's 2011

Here's 2010

Here's 2009

Here's 2008

Here's 2007

Here's 2006

Here's 2005

It is long past the time when facts should be made public to expose the lies and misrepresentations of the Obama-Holder demagogues and the race-grievance industry.The Obama-Holder demagogues, the race-grievance industry, and most employees of the MSM have made this a racial issue. So let's see..

So adding up the homicides year by year shown in the referenced files above, the blacks killed by whites (Col 1) and whites killed by blacks(col 2). Surprise.

col 1 Col 2
193 431
193 448
218 447
209 454
230 504
245 566
208 573
230 516
228 522
281 699
2235 5160

We don't hear about these numbers in the MSM because it would disrupt the Obama-Holder racial demagoguery; as well as, hurt the lucrative race-grievance industry. Oh. And it would upset many MSM employees to have to report truth.

RE: How old

The stats?

Please see my reply #41. Let me know if any questions. I may not be able to answer most but I have the DoJ statistical data through 2008. IMO Obama-Holder blocks release of the data -- at least I cannot find Table 42 data for the years following the 2008 DoJ criminal victimization survey.

He had to reach back to 1925 to find an example? [eye roll] And what does an almost 100 year old chicken-stealing dog incident have to do with Michael Brown?

While he was at it, he could have come forward to the '60s and the Democrat reticence over making it illegal to lynch a Black...

The comments at WaPo are interesting. Strongly critical of the author’s point, Michael Brown, and his supporters.

The I10 divider is the deep south? Wow. I am 3 blocks north of the deep south.

“Only uncivilized countries would not allow it.”

Unciviized societies kill the cop. And that says it all.

It is odd...completely out of whack. Why are blacks targeting white girls? Is this a hate crime too?

http://americanfreepress.net/?p=14864
After researching the FBI numbers for “Suicide of a Superpower,” this writer concluded: “An analysis of ‘single offender victimization figures’ from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks.

Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white — with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study.”

Okolona Mississippi is way north of I-10. I must be REALLY deep south.

It is indeed peculiar, given that black and white women are equally appealing and black and white men are equal in criminality. Surely it is a temporary anomaly and at some point, if only in the name of equality, white men will finally start raping black women.

Much of the differential is simple availability. Black women are only 1/8th as numerous as white women in the U.S.
