MAC DONALD: Well, it's politics and it's also ideology. There's an ideology that's taken hold of universities, that has taken hold of elite establishments, that is committed to the myth of endemic white racism.

It's necessary for academics to have this viewpoint, that there is a "vast racist conspiracy" keeping blacks down.

Because any other explanation for persistent black under-performance, which touched upon deficiencies among blacks and their culture, is too uncomfortable for good leftists to consider.

In Cleveland in September of 2015, three children under the age of five were murdered by drive-by shootings, leading the police chief there, who happens to be black, to break down in tears and say everybody protests when a cop is shot.

Is this verbatim from the transcript?

The reason I ask is I think it's wrong; or Mac Donald didn't mean it this way.

It makes more contextual sense if she said:

...everybody protests when a cop shoots someone.

Because honestly, not everyone even cares when a cop gets shot. In fact, some are happy about it, even if they don't say so publically. (Mr. pResident, can you hear me now?)

But EVERY time a cop shoots a black person, no matter how justified, these protestors come out of the woodwork like termites fleeing the Orkin man.

It’s all about lying. They do it well. They play politics 24/7 we don’t.

I have been looking for the audio and will post it if I find something that can be posted legally -—i.e., Rush has it available for subscribers.

A little while ago her book War on Cops was #2 on Amazon. Fantastic.

Heather McDonald takes an issue and does intense, honest analysis of it. She was spot on on the illegal immigration issue too. She used to be on the shows re:illegal immigration and how it hurts America all the time.
When she speaks I listen. She knows her stuff inside and out.

Yeah she’s been around a long time. If you go to city-journal.org and then contributors and go to her you can go through all her articles written for many years.
Here’s an old one from her.
