“Out Raged!!”
Those words appeared on a sign at a march of black protesters this past week over the recent incident in Inglewood, California. When I saw this sign on the front page of the Los Angeles Times I couldn’t help but think that the photograph said it all: hundreds of blacks, “on call” for a riot, so angry and with so little sense that no one was able to correctly spell the word “outraged.”
By now we all know about last week’s incident in Inglewood, thanks to the inflammatory response of black leaders to the videotape that documented this altercation—or at least part of it. But most, particularly those in the black community, have failed to forgo judgment until a complete and thorough investigation has been carried out. In the spirit of due process, we must allow all the facts to come out. This means we must know the Inglewood Police Officers’ side of the story.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the police officers delivered the following basic account regarding the encounter: On Saturday, July 6, two sheriff deputies approached Coby Chavis, the father of sixteen-year-old Donovan Jackson, at a gas station to inquire about expired vehicle registration tags. Jackson left the gas station’s market to come upon his dad being questioned. According to the police officers, Jackson ignored commands of police officers to wait outside his father’s car as they talked to Chavis. Deputy Carlos Lopez then attempted to get Jackson to sit in the patrol car, at which time Jackson shouted, “I’m not getting in the car! I’m not getting in the car!” and reportedly lunged at the deputy. Officers Jeremy Morse and Bijan Darvish, arriving on the scene as backup, reported that Jackson hit Lopez. Morse and Darvish responded by wrestling Jackson to the ground and trying to handcuff him.
The officers reported that Jackson continued to struggle with the deputies, grabbing, scratching, and swinging as they continued to try to subdue the youth. At this point, Officer Darvish punched Jackson twice in the face because Jackson would not let go of his uniform. Shortly thereafter, the four officers handcuffed Jackson and Morse lifted him off the ground.
It is only at this point in the encounter that the videotape begins, depicting the young thug being thrown on a car and punched in the face (after reportedly refusing to let go of Officer Morse’s testicles).
If true, then this report is crucial to the case of the officers and to finding out the truth behind this encounter. A complete and comprehensive investigation as dictated by due process would bring these facts out. Unfortunately, most in the black community don’t know what due process is and the major black “leaders” certainly don’t care about it. Unfortunately, the wicked Maxine “No justice, no peace!” Waters, the immoral Rev. “Impregnate your mistress, but you’re married” Jesse Jackson, Reverend “the Jews are interlopers” Al Sharpton, Martin Luther “I lost the dream” King III, Dick “I’m only an activist when it involves hating the white man” Gregory, and many of the phony called-by-momma-but-not-God black preachers only care about keeping blacks angry for their own personal gain.
It is thanks to leaders such as these that over the last forty years or so, black men have been so degraded and demoralized that there is no longer any respect for authority in most of the black community. Furthermore, black leaders have turned blacks against cops, convincing them that cops are racist. This encouragement of active disrespect against authority has lead to this kind of hostility by blacks towards police officers.
Jesse Jackson recently labeled President George W. Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft “the most evil combination of our lifetime.” But I say that the current black leadership is the most evil combination ever.
These problem profiteers can gather a group of angry blacks in less than an hour to hate the white man, but not to stand up for the reported thirteen million babies that have been killed in the black woman’s womb since 1973. You won’t hear black leaders shouting about black-on-black crime being out of control, that the public school systems have been so dumbed down that blacks can barely read and write (i.e. “Out Raged!!”), or that the black community is ravaged with AIDS. Most blacks are lazy and trifling, and in the inner city most blacks are “on call” for a riot at the beckon of their leaders.
Many say there is no excuse for what the cops did as shown on the video. I say there is no excuse for what these black leaders have done to turn blacks against cops. They are a combination of wicked men and women whose only goal is power and wealth, at the cost of the rest of the black community. We must repudiate and disband this evil combination of leaders and stand strongly for truth, or they will destroy the black community and America with it.
If you're asking me if aborting American babies by the millions is a problem, the answer is emphatically, yes!
