Black mobs, organized premeditated disruptions, shoplifting gangs, and race riots

California cops tackle teens to the ground during massive 200-person brawl.  A shopping mall in Southern California was forced to close early on Saturday evening after the venue became swamped by brawling teenagers.  Police in Long Beach were quickly on the scene of The Pike Outlets mall after a fight between two girls resulted in an all-out brawl.  Footage of the massive scuffle saw about 200 individuals all congregating at the mall after a social media post went viral suggesting there would be a fight between two females, one adult and one juvenile.

Aha!  Social media.  That's a big part pf the problem.  There are laws on the books that prohibit the use of a radio to facilitate a crime.  A cell phone is a radio.

Of 'Teen Takeovers' and Television News.  [Scroll down]  On Saturday night, March 2, 2024 there was another teen takeover event at which a 17-year-old was shot to death during an altercation. [...] Following this latest event, local TV news totally eschewed the word, "mob," clearly deciding to use the mayor's preferred term, "large gathering," over "teen takeover."  The next night, on March 3, most local news stations avoided use of even the expression "teen takeover."  WGN9 called the mob event a "large gathering," but listed previous similar incidents.  ABC7's "Digital Team 7:04 p.m." referred to "a group of people, potentially [?] teenagers," who "were in the area"; its later 10:00 p.m. news employed the wording, "large gathering."  The anchor on CBS2 described "an out-of-control crowd," but the reporter preferred the wording, "so-called teen takeovers" and spotlighted crisis prevention specialists sporting orange hats and jackets dealing with teens who were "dancing in the middle of the street" and "antagonizing law enforcement."  Only NBC5 unequivocally spoke of a "South Loop takeover," also featuring a grill owner's remark about "teenage meet-ups."  On March 4, two nights after the horrors, NBC5's 10:00 p.m. coverage contained a reference to "Facebook meetings."

The Editor says...
The news media are engaged in a massive parallel effort (if not conspiracy) to avoid stating the fact that these "gatherings" are looting and rioting by loosely organized mobs of young blacks.  Approximately 100 percent of the perpetrators are black.  The news media refuse to report on out-of-control black crime.  The news media also refuse to report the fact that most of the violent crime is this country is committed by blacks.

One of the country's largest malls is requiring minors to be escorted by adults after roaming mobs of "teens" kept brawling.  [Tweet with video clip]  Yup, this is just the norm for youth of today, folks.  Move along now.  Stop noticing. [...] We aren't racist around here.  That means we view things objectively under the non-woke definition of the word.  We look at data and trends and if we notice, for example, that these massive fights in public places are being caused by a certain demographic, we start to theorize that something has gone horribly wrong in this demographic and we need to talk about it to fix the problem.  But nah.  Instead, the actual racists are the ones that talk about it even though skin color and ethnicity have nothing do with it, and they're out there speaking very loudly about it to conservatives.  Meanwhile, normies are mostly being quiet because the wokies will label them racists if they start talking about patterns.  We don't play those games here. [...] See, this isn't the only time these "teens" went nuts at the Del Amo Fashion Center on a mass scale — it happened last summer as well:  [Tweet with video clip]

Crowd Sets Waymo Driverless Car Ablaze In Lawless San Francisco.  A Waymo self-driving car was targeted and deliberately set ablaze by a group of people in San Francisco's Chinatown on Saturday evening.  This incident is part of a rising trend of hostility towards autonomous vehicles, highlighted by an individual late last year on X: "The AI crusades have begun."  Local media outlet NBC Bay Area reports the self-driving Jaguar was traveling on Jackson Street, between Stockton and Grant, around 2100 local time when 10 to 15 people attacked it.  Videos on X show a group of people vandalizing the self-driving car.

Looks Like Some Upstanding Consumers Are Enjoying Some Early Black Friday, 100% Off Sales.  It's amazing how brazen black thugs have gotten with smash-and-grabs in liberal-run cities.  They don't even hide their faces or worry about any sort of security or resistance.  It's as if they know the game is rigged in their favor and even if they are caught, they will be released with barely a slap on the wrist.  [Video clip]

Watch As 20 People Dine And Dash Out Of A Houston Cajun Restaurant, Leave 500 Dollar Bill Unpaid.  Houston seafood joint Crazy Cajun welcomed a funeral party with open arms last week, despite being short-staffed.  The mourners returned the favor — by skipping out on a bill worth over $500.  According to assistant manager Brenda Garcia, dine and dashers are pretty common.  [Video clip]

Funeral Party Walks Out on $500 Bill, Threatens to Shoot Staff.  According to Daily Mail, a group of 20 people were looking for a bite to eat after a funeral in Houston.  They decided to pop into Crazy Cajun Seafood & Sports for a bite to eat. [...] And so, those 20 mourners went down to the seafood joint and had themselves a meal.  However, when the $542.67 check came, the $84.64 gratuity fee — a 20% for a large party — was a bridge too far for 18 of the 20 diners.  They voiced their displeasure by walking out of the restaurant.  This was captured on video and posted on TikTok by Grizzy's Hood News. a news outlet with more journalistic cred than The New York Times these days.

A Clockwork Orange as Left-wing Politics.  Starting with Antifa and BLM riots of 2020 — fully supported by leftist local governments — urban centers in Democrat-led cities like San Francisco have spiraled into a "doom loop" wherein urban business flees "flash mob" looting and skyrocketing violent crime.  A few examples:
  •   San Francisco:  After flash mobs looted Neiman Marcus and other stores, two dozen retailers have left.  Walgreens closed 12 San Francisco stores, while upscale Nordstrom pulled its two stores, including its Westfield mall flagship.  Australian furniture retailer Coco Republic, which invested heavily in its showroom off Union Square, abruptly closed the store less than a year after opening across from Macy's.  Once fashionable Union Square is now a ghost town.
  •   Los Angeles:  Even two years ago, 20+ robbers at the popular Grove shopping center used a sledgehammer and assorted weapons to smash one of a Nordstrom's windows, reportedly taking men's clothing.  That was child's play, however, compared to the recent flash mob of 100+ that looted a 7-Eleven.
  •   Philadelphia:  Even the examples above pale in comparison to the two-night Philadelphia flash mob spree featuring caravans of hundreds who wrecked dozens of stores, including T-Mobile, Apple, Lulu and Footlocker outlets.  One of the looters, a social influencer calling herself "Meatball," gleefully livestreamed the event to 181,000 Instagram followers, rationalizing it by explaining "Everybody gotta' eat."  A tearful "Meatball" seemed less gleeful when charged with six felonies.

And now, everything in the store is under lock and key, except sunscreen and Father's Day cards.
Bare shelves in CVS store in DC after being routinely ransacked by mob of up to FIFTY unruly teenagers.  The desolate results of America's shoplifting epidemic have been laid bare at a CVS in DC where entire shelves have been cleared by gangs of children who attack every day.  A sole security guard at the store in Columbia Heights is no match for up to 50 teens who routinely strip the store both before and after school, Fox 5 reported.  The pharmacist chain is in the process of closing 900 stores across the US in the face of a crime wave that the National Retail Federation says is costing the industry $112 billion a year.

Richard on Cottman Avenue and the looters flood in like the old Black Friday shoppers.  Notice there is a steel cage they had to cut through first to get to the glass doors.  [Video clip]

Philadelphia swarmed by alleged juvenile looters targeting the Apple Store, Lululemon, Footlocker and others.  Philadelphia police responded to popular retailers like the Apple Store, Lululemon and Footlocker after they were allegedly being ravaged by swarms of looters taking over the City of Brotherly Love Tuesday evening.  At about 8 p.m. Tuesday, police responded to reports of large crowds of juveniles allegedly looting stores in the Center City business corridor of the 9th District.  "In a proactive measure, officers from the 9th District stopped a group of males dressed in black attire and wearing masks at the intersection of 17th and Chestnut Streets," a police spokesperson said in a statement to Fox News Digital.

Los Angeles (Just Like California) Is Dying A Slow And Painful Death.  Just over a week ago, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass declared war on the recent smash-and-grab robbery trend infecting the county's retail stores.  She announced a new regional task force consisting of 22 investigators to focus entirely on curbing the shoplifting phenomenon sweeping Southern California.  Unfortunately, it seems lawless perpetrators did not get the message.  Since the task force — including officers from police departments across the region, along with state and federal support — was assembled, at least three more large group incidents have been reported.  On Tuesday of this past week, a video from the Citizen app showed five masked thieves ransacking a Dior counter inside a Macy's at the Shops of Santa Anita Mall.  They grabbed boxed sets of perfumes, threw them into trash bags, and ran away as onlookers gasped.  In a separate incident, also posted on the Citizen app, a video shows the aftermath of a flash-mob robbery at a Footlocker store on Melrose Avenue, one of the city's most popular shopping districts.

Mass Youth Brawls Hit California Malls.  Two massive brawls were reported on Sunday at malls in California, including one at the Del Amo Fashion Center in Torrance in L.A., and one at the Bay Street Mall in Emeryville, near Oakland.  [Four tweets with video clips]  The mass brawls are the latest flash mob phenomenon to terrorize retail in the California area.  Mass looting events, which began in the Black Lives Matter riots and launched with fervor in November 2021 in San Francisco's Union Square, have sparked the formation of a special task force in L.A., with help from the California Highway Patrol.

LA's smash-and-grab epidemic:  Voters helped break California's justice system.  Smash-and-grab robberies are happening in broad daylight at stores throughout California and no one seems to be doing anything to stop them.  Two weeks back, a Nordstrom store in the west San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles was attacked by a flash mob of 30 to 50 masked thieves.  They made off with armloads of designer merchandise valued at an estimated $60,000 to $100,000.  Online video of the robbery showed metal-and-glass display shelves sliding along the floor as the thieves dragged expensive handbags, still attached to anti-theft cables, toward the exits.  The previous week, a gang of thieves helped themselves to about $300,000 worth of goods from a Yves Saint Laurent store in a shopping mall owned by the recent candidate for LA Mayor, Rick Caruso.

A Very Bad Week for Civilization in California.  A group of "up to 30" teens poured into a Nordstrom's store in Topanga, Calif., in a "smash and grab" looting that went off with military precision.  [Tweet with video clip]  Note the eerie silence.  These aren't young people on a lark looting a store for fun or because "raaaaaacism."  It's certainly not some last minute social media happening.  This is an organized gang of thieves carrying out a well-planned criminal operation.  That's not the only outrageous act of anarchy that happened in California last week.
  •   A flash mob comprised of dozens of thieves hit the Yves Saint Laurent at The Americana at Brand Mall Tuesday, making off with $300,000 in merchandise, according to the Glendale Police Department.

Police are investigating whether all three incidents of looting were carried out by the same gang of thieves.

Target Employee Breaks Up A Flash Mob Dancing Inside Store, Of Course He's Called A RACIST.  A wannabe pop star is receiving backlash online after she labeled a Target employee as a "racist" for calling the police on her "flash mob" that showed up uninvited to a store and began filming a dance video.  Baby Storme, an internet personality who released a song titled "This City Is A Graveyard," posted videos on YouTube and X titled "Racist Target Employee Calls The Police On Us For Dancing."  In the video, Baby Storme, who lists Los Angeles as her hometown on social media, and about a dozen other people dressed in goth-inspired costumes begin a slow dance as they walk through an aisle at a Target, whose exact location could not be determined.  [Video clip]

Now the mass looters are using bear spray.  A headline about a group of masked looters brazenly robbing a store in California is so common these days that it's barely worth writing.  But the incident that took place at a Norstrom in the Topanga Mall near Los Angeles yesterday is noteworthy for a couple of reasons.  First, there was the size of the mob.  As many as fifty masked people showed up to pull off a "smash and grab" where tens of thousands of dollars worth of merchandise was taken.  In a rare exception to the usual rules, a store security guard attempted to stop one of the looters, but he was stymied by another unusual factor.  The looter pulled out a can of bear spray and drove him off.  And this all took place in broad daylight around four in the afternoon.  Officials are promising a full investigation, but we shall see what comes of that pledge.

NYC Playstation Riot Demonstrates the Decline of the West.  Where would we be without social media?  Why, if we didn't have it, we would have to rely on an asteroid, nuclear war, a space virus, an alien invasion, or a revolution by chimpanzees, orangutans, and gorillas to bring down mankind.  But as it is, we have social media, so we've got the end of the world pretty well in hand.  In case you haven't heard, there was a riot today in New York City.  Big deal, you say.  It's summer.  It's riot season.  But this riot was not over race, abortion, trans rights, or some other hot-button issue that demands our slack-jawed, glassy-eyed attention from time to time.  No, nothing so noble.  Nothing so dramatic.  This riot was over a social media giveaway.  Some under-employed jackanape who is a Twitch gamer/influencer named Kai Cenat announced that he/she/zim/zer/whatever would be doing a giveaway of PlayStation 5s, microphones, computers, and gaming accessories.  You can witness the results below.  [Tweet with video clip]

A list of the big box shops which have closed due to millions in losses from rampant theft.  In 2021 retailers lost a combined $94.5 billion to shrink, a term used to describe theft and other types of inventory loss. [...] Walmart decided to shut 17 of its stores across nine states after CEO Doug McMillon warned in December that theft was the highest it's ever been around the country and if it did not slow down, stores would have to close.  And the company announced on Tuesday it would be shutting half its Chicago stores, mostly located on the crime-ridden city's south and west sides, because they are losing tens of millions each year. [...] Target revealed it lost an extraordinary $400 million in profits last November due to organized gangs of shoplifters who had been stealing merchandise from its stores.  And its CFO said the company expected retail thefts to reach $600 million by the end of the year.  Now the retailer has announced it is closing four stores in three cities in the coming months. [...] Walgreens has previously complained about retail shrinkage largely due to organized shop lifting last year and spent money on extra security measures including glass panels and security guards as preventative measures.  But its chief financial officer James Kehoe came out earlier this year and said 'maybe we cried too much last year when we were hitting numbers that were 3.5 percent of sales'. [...] Shopping mall staple Macy's is closing four stores in the first quarter of 2023, with malls in California, Colorado, Hawaii and Maryland losing out.  The closures are part of Macy's three-year plan to close 125 locations as an increase in organized retail crimes cuts into the profits of businesses. [...] Best Buy CEO Corie Barry highlighted the growing problem with theft at its stores back in November 2021.  The big box retailer sells very high value gadgets including computers, TVs and phones -- many of which are smaller in size but high in value, making them prime targets for shoplifters.

Target CFO: 'Organized retail crime' contributed to hundreds of millions in lost profits in 2022.  With all due respect to Walgreens CFO James Kehoe, inventory shrinkage mostly at the hands of organized retail crime is still worth crying over if you are a retailer.  Take Target, for example.  "It [inventory shrinkage] was certainly a headwind [last year]," Target CFO Michael Fiddelke told Yahoo Finance on Tuesday [2/28/2023].  "We know we're not alone in seeing elevated levels of shrink and organized retail crime driving some of that theft."  Fiddelke said the profit impact amounted to "hundreds of millions of dollars of headwind."  The issue is likely to challenge Target's bottom line in 2023, he added.

America's Growing Political Impotence.  [Scroll down]  Just as exasperating is the huge increase in shoplifting, much of it going unpunished.  Here we watch security camera footage of shoplifters strolling the isles stuffing their booty into plastic bags while "guards" calmly observe the thievery.  Apathy is apparently the official corporate policy as if smash and grabbers were just regular customers, albeit non-paying ones.  And, in those rare instances where the culprit is apprehended, he almost immediately returns to "work," all to be repeated dozens of times.  Even for those not personally witnessing this unpunished thievery, its existence is conspicuous by the sudden appearance of glass doors in drug stores putting toothpaste and soap under lock and key.  This is an epidemic not of stealing per se, but of thievery that nobody bothers to stop, let alone punishes.

Police, Retailers Work to Crack Down on Increasingly Brazen Shoplifting Ahead of Holidays.  Holiday shoppers might notice some changes this year.  Along with heavier foot traffic, there will be a heavier police presence, and some of that is due to a spike in shoplifting cases.  "We have extra officers that we assigned to the malls and shopping centers," said 2nd Lt. William Arnest with the Fairfax County Police Department, who supervises a unit of officers who protect area shopping malls.  "There was a decrease during the pandemic with people staying home, but shoplifting is now increasing."  The News4 I-Team analyzed shoplifting data and found Fairfax County had the most cases in the area last year with more than 4,000 incidents.  That's among the 11,000 cases around the D.C. region in 2021.

Videos capture Chattanooga, Philly shoot-outs this weekend.  Multiple dead, including MSM narrative.  This story and the shooting in Philadelphia won't get the mainstream media attention that "mass shootings" get under other circumstances, and we bet you know why.  The start of the Chattanooga shooting was caught in a video that was shared to Facebook.  [Video clip]  News Channel 9 posted that clip, writing:  In the 11-second clip, you can hear more than 20 shots ring out as the woman dives to safety in her car.  Other people can be seen outside the car running away.  The Facebook account Tabby Tab shared several live updates on her page in the early morning hours that show she was in the vicinity of the bar on McCallie Avenue.  The start of the Philadelphia shooting was posted to Twitter.  [Video clips]  And in Chattanooga, the Mayor made this statement, which will pretty much guarantee CNN and MSNBC ignore the story and drop it from their websites as soon as they can get away with it, probably within hours:  ["]This violence is gang related.  Period.  We cannot fix the problem until we are honest about the problem.["]  Yeah.  If it can't be made out as a case of a guilty gun or a guilty "white supremacist" it goes away.

Luxury stores still limiting crowds post-COVID — and won't admit why.  COVID-19 is waning, but shopping for a Louis Vuitton bag, a Chanel suit or a pair of Gucci loafers increasingly means standing in line outside a boutique — and luxury brands have been conspicuously tight-lipped on why. [...] According to experts, roped-off customers can mostly thank a relentless epidemic of smash-and-grab robberies rather than social distancing for ramped-up crowd controls nationwide, including in New York, Chicago, Miami, San Francisco and Seattle.  Theft got so bad last year that Beverly Hills hired two private security firms to patrol Rodeo Drive.  Meanwhile, at the Westchester Mall in White Plains, NY, where robbers ransacked a Louis Vuitton store in February, the boutique's doors were closed, with stanchions inviting shoppers to queue up outside.

The Editor says...
The store owners have been "conspicuously tight-lipped" because they can't afford to say that all of the smash-and-grab perpetrators are black, so they can't let too many black "shoppers" into the store.

No, the mass smash and grab robberies are not ending in California.  Is there a new wave of responsibility in the government of California taking place that will bring surging crime levels under control and make it safer for businesses to operate in a routine fashion and citizens to walk the streets?  The pending recall elections of soft-on-crime District Attorneys and the refunding of some police departments might make you think so.  But the crime wave is not receding yet.  The latest example comes to us this week from CBS News in Los Angeles where they provide details and video of the latest smash-and-grab mass looting even that netted the criminals roughly one million dollars in jewelry and other goods in a space of minutes.  Amazingly, the entire event was once again caught on camera, but the identity of the suspects thus far remains a mystery.

6 people charged in organized ambush thefts from Twin Cities stores during Black Friday.  Six people are charged with grabbing thousands of dollars in merchandise in front of stunned shoppers and employees at several Twin Cities retail outlets on Nov. 26, Black Friday.  "This brazen act by an organized group shocked those who witnessed it first-hand as well as the retail community and law-abiding shoppers who were out making purchases ahead of the busy holiday season," Ramsey County Attorney John Choi said Friday, when the charges were unsealed in District Court.

Woke LA DA George Gascon blames Union Pacific for thefts from trains.  Progressive Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón is firing back at a railroad company that has taken shots at him for not doing more to stop train burglaries in the area, despite the company's pleas for his office's assistance.  This comes after Governor Gavin Newsom was disgusted by a ravaged rail depot — full of visible cardboard and other debris due to the thefts — in the Lincoln Heights area of the city that he visited and helped cleaned up.  In December, rail company Union Pacific — which holds jurisdiction over crime on the rails — sent a letter to DA Gascón asking for more aggressive prosecutions for cargo thieves and an end to the no-bail policy for some defendants that Gascon wants to reduce overcrowding at jails during the pandemic.

Trash by the tracks
Union Pacific blasts Los Angeles DA for going soft on crime, considers rerouting trains amid rail car looting.  Major rail carrier Union Pacific is considering rerouting its trains after blasting Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascon for going soft on crime amid a spike in rail car looting.  UP General Director of Public Affairs Adrian Guerrero wrote a letter detailing how at least 90 rail car containers are broken into each day, with criminals being caught and released only to come back and loot again.  "These individuals are generally caught and released back onto the streets in less than twenty-four hours," Guerrero wrote.  "Even with all the arrests made, the no-cash bail policy and extended timeframe for suspects to appear in court is causing re-victimization to UP by these same criminals.  In fact, criminals boast to [UP] officers that charges will be pled down to simple trespassing — which bears no serious consequence."


I knew it!  They're intentionally derailing the trains.
Union Pacific Train Derails Near Site Of Recent Thefts And Locals Seems To Reveal The Real Reason For The "Accident".  At least 17 cargo trains derailed near Lincoln Heights.  The crew members onboard the train were not injured.  The train derailed in an area where thousands of boxes are left by cargo thieves. [...] As the investigation into the crash is ongoing locals allege that the real reason for the accident is the criminals who according to them are mostly illegals that are attacking the trains in the last few months.  People say that they see obstacles on the railroad every day and that this time the looters even managed to derail the cargo train in order to steal more.

That scene at the Union Pacific rail depot is all about wokesterism, not the weird things the press is cooking up.  Sometimes, a picture is worth a thousand words.  Sometimes, it's worth a million or more views.  This brings us to the pictures rolling out from Los Angeles of the wholesale theft of Union Pacific's railroad containers, leaving thousands of broken packages strewn around tracks in photos redolent of places like Calcutta, India.  [Tweet with video clip]  That's wokesterism in action.  What it's not is all the idiotic things the press has been trying to blame for it, and I'm looking at you, Los Angeles Times.  Union Pacific is ready to throw in the towel on Los Angeles because these thefts are out of control — something like one out of six containers now gets broken into — and very few thieves are ever prosecuted.

Rail thefts leave tracks littered with pilfered packages.  The scene was a stretch of railroad tracks in Lincoln Heights on Saturday:  A blizzard of torn plastic wrappers, cardboard boxes and paper packaging attesting to a wave of rail car thievery that officials say has been on the rise in recent months.  Several scavengers picked through the debris, hoping to find electronics, clothes or whatever valuables thieves left behind.  "Everything comes on the train — cellphones, Louis Vuitton purses, designer clothes, toys, lawnmowers, power equipment, power tools," said a 37-year-old man who declined to give his name.  He said he comes to the tracks regularly and once found a Louis Vuitton purse and a robotic arm worth five figures:  "We find things here and there, make some money off of it."


Union Pacific train derails near site of recent cargo thefts in Lincoln Heights; 17 cars off track.  Seventeen cars of a Union Pacific train derailed Saturday afternoon in Lincoln Heights, the same area which has recently seen rail car thefts.  Drone video showed the scene of the derailment near San Pablo Street and Valley Boulevard, which is expected to be blocked for some time.

[#1] I'm not a detective, but if the railroad pirates have discovered a gold mine of flat-screen TV's and other merchandise that can be looted and re-sold, they have a tremendous incentive to figure out how to derail a freight train at exactly the place they want it to stop.  A derailment leaves the train stopped for a long time, which makes it much easier to board and hastily ransack it.  [#2]  Democrats don't spend any time wondering, Where is this going to lead?  But allow me to make this prediction:  Before long, television sets will be sold as brain-dead devices that can only be activated after you enter a code that the retailer will supply to you when you legitimately purchase the TV.  That way, a stolen TV set will be useful only as a doorstop or boat anchor.  This would be especially effective if the TV has a connection to the internet.  Under this registration system, one could easily invent a system to remotely disable TV sets that were stolen after they were purchased and initially registered, but for now I won't elaborate on the technical details.

As if there weren't enough Joe Biden calamities, now it's pirate attacks?  [Scroll down]  What we have here is an unprecedented attack that's literally the work of pirates our supply chain, land pirates, who by this definition are the same thing. [...] More recently, the U.S. also acted swiftly with NATO forces to get the Somali pirates under control, ensuring that by 2013, there were no pirate attacks at all on Western cargo ships near the Red Sea.  The attacks on our supply chain are the same kind of pirate attack, done on land and likely by local organized criminals and Mexican cartels, neither of which has any fear of the law.

Democrats 'New America': Here's the Aftermath of a Train Robbery in Los Angeles, Millions in Goods Lay on the Ground.  According to Los Angeles Police trains are being frequently robbed and their goods are thrown all over the ground exactly like can be seen in this video.  This is happening more and more frequently as Democrat cities across America are refusing to arrest people who are caught stealing.  Now, thieves have realized where they can easily get massive amounts of merchandise without any fear of being recorded, just rob the source — trains and trucks!  [Video clip]

This is Chicago!  Train Gets Robbed of TVs, Mattresses and More in Broad Daylight.  If you're wondering why it might be hard to find some products in Chicago, take a look at this train being robbed of all its goodies in broad daylight as it's stopped.  TVs, mattresses and a plethora of other large objects can be seen being taken from the box cars by individuals standing and waiting in line for something they may like.  All of the people filmed on camera will more than likely not be charged for theft since Democrats in big cities across the USA have basically said crime is acceptable and cops are evil for doing thier jobs.  Unless of course people show up to Democrats blocks, then suddenly it's an issue that must be dealt with ASAP.  [Video clip]

Video Shows Thousands Of Opened And Stolen Packages At Union Pacific Station In Lost Angeles.  A section of the Union Pacific train tracks in downtown Los Angeles has been littered with thousands of shredded boxes, packages stolen from cargo containers that stop in the area to unload.  Thieves have been raiding the cargo containers, taking packages that belong to people from all over the country from retailers like Amazon, REI and others.  The refuse left behind, like home COVID test kits, are items that the robbers did not want or did not think were valuable enough to take.  [Video clip]

Videos Show Freight Trains Being Looted By "Rioters" And Massive Sea Of Stolen Packages.  A video showing multiple packages reportedly looted from Los Angeles trains has gone viral with over 2 million views.  CBS 2 photojournalist John Schreiber shared on Thursday showing what he discovered at the Lincoln Heights train tracks.  He captioned the video:  "Keep hearing of train burglaries in LA on the scanner so went to Lincoln Heights to see it all.

Looters steal Amazon and UPS packages from trains waiting outside downtown LA sorting depot and strew debris along tracks.  Thousands of shredded packages were seen scattered along the tracks of a Los Angeles railway on Thursday, said to be left by thieves who are now looting cargo containers.  Video footage captured a series of packages that were either left empty or torn up along the Union Pacific tracks in the Lincoln Heights neighborhood of downtown Los Angeles.  The cargo packages have been bait for railway thieves who have targeted goods from companies such as Amazon and UPS bound for residences along the West Coast.

[#1] California is the state that outlawed plastic straws and single-use bags because they might end up in the ocean, but they allow large mobs of people to commit train robberies and throw plastic packaging everywhere.  [#2] Many video clips accompanying news stories about these train robberies show plastic and paper littering railroad tracks.  So far, I've only seen one video clip [from Chicago] that shows a robbery in progress, and the numerous perpetrators are all black.  That probably explains why such video is hard to find.

The ascendance of the inner-city predator.  The inner-city predator has been a problem for decades, but never before has the predator received the affirmation of the criminal justice system.  The criminal justice system and the mainstream media have conditioned us to see the predators themselves as victims of social forces.  They are people deprived of opportunity and incapable of making decent choices.  The predators are the true victim.  The prey are simply collateral damage. [...] As sociologists, progressives, and liberals see it, the predators who come out of the inner city and smash and grab their way through suburban shopping malls for $500 to $1000 are not thugs but desperate young people.  Their behavior does not show their thuggery but their limited opportunities.  Why else would they take such enormous risks for so little money?  And who is responsible for this?  You are, because you have not worked to change the social system.  It is not the people doing the smashing and grabbing who are at fault, but the people who limited their opportunities.  And the legitimacy of this twisted ideology is underscored by having the police stand in place while the "teens" bash their way through suburbia.

California Thugs Storm A Jewelry Store At Mall In Broad Daylight.  A group of people forced their way into a San Jose jewelry store Monday [1/3/2022], smashed display cases with hammers and stole several pieces of jewelry before taking off, according to police.  Police said the takeover robbery happened at about 3:30 p.m. at Credit Jewelers, which is located in the La Placita Tropicana shopping center at Story and King roads.  Police said eight to 10 people were involved.  "A takeover robbery is very different from a standard smash-and-grab or what we've seen recently with retail mall thefts," San Jose police Officer Steve Aponte said.  [Video clip]

Entire Mall Closed Down For A Day Because Of This Crazed Brawl In Fairlawn Ohio.  Summit Mall closed abruptly Dec. 26 after young people decided to gather there, leading to fights and concerns about COVID-19, the City of Fairlawn said.  Even though the Fairlawn Police Department and Summit Mall management knew about and attempted to control the situation, a number of fights caused management to close the mall altogether.  [Video clip]

Kids and teens banned from visiting this N.J. mall after Christmas without an adult.  The Cherry Hill Mall is continuing a holiday tradition this year with a restriction on unaccompanied juveniles on Dec. 26, typically one of the busiest days of the year.  Heather Crowell, an executive vice president of PREIT, which also owns the Moorestown and Cumberland malls in New Jersey, and Fashion District Mall in Center City, Philadelphia, said Wednesday the restrictions would be in place again this year.  "Yes, we will continue with the policy we have implemented for the past few years, prohibiting unaccompanied minors on 12/26 at [the] Cherry Hill Mall," Crowell said in an email.  Three years ago, up to 1,000 youths, mostly teens, were in the middle of melees that closed the mall around midday the day after Christmas.

The Left denies there's a shoplifting boom.  The Daily Mail reported, "A woman, armed with a pickaxe, was shoplifting at a Los Angeles Rite Aid.  "Shoppers videotaped the bizarre scene on Thursday as the woman walked up and down the aisles with the weapon in hand.  "She reportedly threatened employees and customers and warned that she would come back as she walked out with a basket full of merchandise.  "It comes as LA and cities throughout California continue to be plagued by robberies amid the state's zero bail policies."  There's your democracy.  Californians voted to decriminalize shoplifting.  Californians elected pro-criminal DAs.  Shoplifting and the outright looting of stores are rampant in California.  But just as the media called massive riots by Democrats in city after city mostly peaceful protests in 2020, the media is denying the theft.  In the epicenter of the new lawlessness, the San Francisco Chronicle is the bulwark for thieves.

Cops called as NYC crowd descends for coveted free COVID tests.  Cops had to step in Friday [12/24/2021] as a crowd mobbed a Brooklyn corner where the city was giving away free at-home COVID-19 tests.  Tempers flared as the larger-than-expected crowd descended on Flatbush and Church avenues, one of five spots in the Big Apple where city health officials were doling out tests amid a surge in demand over the holidays and lack of supply.

Shooting at Mall Near Chicago Results in at Least Four Injured.  We saw a shooting turn deadly in California after the smash and grab robberies that have been happening in some Democratic cities, killing a former officer who was defending a news crew from being robbed after they went to cover a smash and grab story.  Now, violence may have happened again, this time in Oakbrook Center Mall in Oak Brook, Illinois, which is a suburb near Chicago.

Wild Miami Airport Fight Shows Cop Getting Grabbed, Punching Passenger.  Two people are in custody after a brawl broke out at Miami International Airport Monday evening [12/20/2021].  According to the Miami-Dade Police Department, officers were called out to gate H8 at around 6:35 p.m. after an airport employee reported a disturbance stemming from a delayed charter flight.  Responding officers then found an unruly passenger had allegedly taken the keys to an airport transport golf cart, refusing to let the employee to leave.  [Video clip]

Brawl Breaks Out At Miami Airport, Cop Attacked.  Two people are in custody after a brawl broke out at Miami International Airport Monday night [12/20/2021].  Miami-Dade police officers were called to gate H8 shortly after 6:30 p.m. after an airport employee reported a disturbance due to a delayed charter flight.  Upon arriving at the gate, officers then found an "unruly passenger" had taken the keys to an airport transport golf cart, and refused to let the employee leave, police said.  Video footage by Only in Dade shows a large crowd surrounding one of the officers, who had someone in a hold.  The officer appears to be grabbed and pushed by the crowd when he then let go of his hold.  He could then be seen holding what appears to be a weapon while radioing for help with his other hand.  [Video clip]

Store Owner Asks Young Thugs To Put Back Items They Were Stealing So They Destroyed His Store Instead.  It's almost not worth having a business in America in 2021.  If the COVID restrictions have not yet murdered your establishment, or the supply chain issues, or inflation, then the crime pandemic in liberal run areas will surely finish you off.  [Video clip]

California police under fire after group targets Macy's in attempted robbery, assault.  California police are investigating an attempted robbery at a Macy's in San Jose after at least six male suspects entered the store and assaulted a female employee.  Police say between six and eight suspects entered the Macy's at the Westfield Oakridge Mall at about 6 p.m. local time Saturday [12/18/2021].  Employees of Macy's loss prevention team approached the suspects and tried to stop them, according to authorities.  A female Macy's employee was assaulted by one of the male suspects, suffering minor to moderate injuries, NBC Bay Area reported.

Multiple jewelry stores in Massachusetts targeted in smash-and-grab robberies.  Police are searching for the people responsible for smash-and-grab robberies at several Massachusetts jewelry stores.  Surveillance video shared by Touch of Midas in Burlington shows nine people breaking through the front door in the overnight hours between Saturday and Sunday.  Those people then used hammers to smash display cases in order to grab fistfuls of jewelry.  Those thieves were able to run off before anyone could catch them.  Roland Racicot, the owner of Roland's Jewelry, said thieves broke into his 30-year-old Medford business and stole about $15,000 in merchandise the same night Touch of Midas was robbed.  The two stores are approximately eight miles apart.

America's Unamerican Smash-And-Grab.  [Scroll down]  Within the first section of Proposition 47 lies the primary driver of "smash and grabs."  Shoplifting is defined as "entering a commercial establishment with the intent to commit larceny while that establishment is open during regular business hours" where the value of the property does not exceed $950."  That is, according to the California penal code, if someone enters the store when employees are present (putting them at risk) and loots $950 worth of items (if not more, as seen in many of the smash-and-grab cases), they should be allowed to walk free without punishment.  This reclassification only allows criminals to get away with crimes instead of reducing crime itself.  For instance, on November 19th, 20 to 40 people organized a burglary at a San Francisco Louis Vuitton store.  It was not an act of opportunity but a raid organized to some extent through social media and messaging apps.  With only five officially arrested in the above case, criminals are growing bolder, leading to more smash and grab events, such as when 90 people raided a Nordstrom Rack at the Walnut Creek shopping facility on November 20th.  An estimated $100,000 worth of goods were stolen there.

San Francisco is so Lawless Stores Have Turned into Prisons to Keep People From Stealing.  California is quickly becoming a third world nation as Democrat Governor, Gavin Newsom, does his best to bring about the nations richest state's demise.  After a law was passed that would allow people in the state to steal up to $950 worth of merchandise in what appears to be an attempt by the elites to destroy small businesses so everyone is reliant on the government, millions of dollars were stolen from businesses large and small.  Wealthy corporations like Safeway have the funds available to turn their stores into prison-like buildings in order to stop the theft, while smaller mom and pop stores are robbed into bankruptcy.  [Video clip]

Horrific Scene Unfolds at a Park, Child Attacked by Grown Women Leads to a Car Ramming the Women.  A chaotic scene unfolded as camera's were recording when a large group of large women attacked a small child.  Moments after the child was attacked, what appeared to be another child took it upon themselves to use a car as a weapon to ram the women; only to be ripped out of the car and savagely beaten as well.  [Video clip]

Safeway Redesigns San Francisco Store To Prevent 'Flash Mob' Robberies.  A Safeway grocery store in San Francisco, California, has redesigned the front end of its store to mitigate shoplifting and smash and grab mobs.  "This Safeway is getting weirder and weirder," one shopper told San Francisco Chronicle who walked through a newly installed electronic gate at the entrance of the store.  The gates allow customers to enter the store but prevent looters from running out with a cart full of stolen items.  Barriers were added throughout the checkout area, directing customers leaving the store into a single file line.  Unused checkout aisles were blocked with large physical barriers.  The store's side entrance was blocked by a new display of heavy plastic water bottles.

AOC blasted for doubting 'smash-and-grab' heists; retail org. says she 'has no idea what she's talking about'.  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is being criticized after she appeared to suggest that so-called "smash-and-grab" robberies, which have been on the increase across the country but especially in California, were not really occurring.  "A lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out," the self-described Democratic socialist from New York said in an interview with The Washington Times last week.  "I believe it's a Walgreens in California who cited it, but the data didn't back it up," she went on to claim.  Videos of the robberies have frequently gone viral on social media.

Teen Shot, Massive Fights Breakout, 21 Arrested Outside of Millennium Park.  21 people were arrested around 9PM yesterday after a shooting that sent a 15-year old boy to the hospital.  The teen was shot in the arm with a handgun after bumping into another teen.  The boy was taken to Lurie Children's Hospital in stable condition.  [Video clip]

Downtown chaos:  Chicago police arrest 21 juveniles, two officers are injured, bus driver attacked.  A gunshot wound, 21 juveniles arrested, two officers injured, one bus driver attacked, nine curfew citations:  It was a busy Saturday night for Chicago police in the downtown area.  Chicago police arrested 21 juveniles downtown on Saturday night after calls came in of a large group.  An additional nine juveniles were cited for curfew violations.  Police said one juvenile had a gunshot wound to the arm and was taken to the hospital.  Two officers were injured, including one who had a broken arm.  Two replica guns were recovered.

A Pack Of Wild Youths Go On Rampage In Chicago, Beat Bus Driver Senseless, One Boy Shot, 20 Arrested.  A 15-year-old was shot, a CTA bus driver was beaten, and about 20 juveniles were taken into custody as a "large group incident" unfolded in the Loop on Saturday evening, according to police and initial information from sources.  Acting on intelligence gathered through social media and other sources that hundreds of young people planned to gather downtown, CPD leaders deployed extra resources to the area late Saturday afternoon.  Among the more serious incidents:  A CTA bus driver was beaten on the 100 block of North Michigan when he stopped his vehicle to inspect it for damage after he heard a loud noise around 8:50 p.m., according to a CPD statement.  [Video clip]

Looters steal $5 million of products from 15 cannabis shops in the San Francisco Bay Area in a single month:  One business.  Cannabis shops across the San Francisco Bay Area have been thrown into dire straits as gangs of thieves broke into more than 15 shops throughout November during the series of 'smash-and-grab' robberies that are plaguing California.  Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong told reporters that 'hundreds' of vehicles targeted marijuana stores in Oakland last month, firing 175 shots and stealing about $5 million worth of products.  Alphonso 'Tucky' Blunt, owner of Blunts and Moore, told MJBizDaily that his store lost about $25,000 during a November 22 raid, where more than a dozen burglars ransacked the store.

Pillaging and Plundering:  The prosecution of the $950 theft.  These smash-and-grab thefts have escalated, thanks to the uber-liberal left, and their George Soros-sponsored, elected prosecutors failing to perform their duties.  These prosecutors hide behind a loophole in California law that makes theft below $950.00 a misdemeanor.  They use this law to claim it is not worth their time to prosecute, so they either plea bargain the crime down to a fine only, or outright dismiss the charge.  At issue here, is that the law of shoplifting less than $950.00 should be applied only to an individual acting alone at best.  These smash-and-grab robberies being committed from Los Angeles to San Francisco and now across the country are not being committed by individuals.  These crimes are being committed by highly organized groups of individuals acting in a conspiracy to commit these thefts.  This was evidenced recently in L.A. when more than 80 suspects stormed a shopping mall and then fled to numerous waiting getaway vehicles.

14 arrested over L.A. smash-and-grab thefts, but all released as leaders call for end to COVID no-bail policy.  Authorities in Los Angeles on Thursday [12/2/2021] announced more than a dozen arrests in recent smash-and-grab thefts at stores where nearly $340,000 worth of merchandise was stolen, part of a rash of organized retail crime in California.  Fourteen people were arrested in connection with 11 brazen robberies between November 18 and 28, but all were released from custody, police Chief Michel Moore said.  Most bailed out or met no-bail criteria, and one is a juvenile, he said.  At a joint news conference, both Moore and Mayor Eric Garcetti called for an end to a no-bail policy for some defendants aimed at reducing overcrowding at Los Angeles County jails during the coronavirus pandemic.

Fifty years ago, before surveillance cameras (and the internet) were everywhere, she might have gotten away with this gaslighting:
GOP, businesses slam AOC for doubting existence of smash-and-grab robberies: 'Tone-deaf and offensive'.  New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was slammed by Republicans and business leaders following an interview where she cast doubt on whether rampant smash-and-grabs are actually occurring.  "A lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out," Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with The Washington Times last week.  "I believe it's a Walgreens in California cited it, but the data didn't back it up," she added.  The comments sparked pushback from retail leaders and Republican lawmakers, including from Walgreens.

AOC Claims Those Organized Smash and Grabs on Stores You're Seeing Aren't Real.  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez often seems to be living on another planet with the takes that she frequently has.  But she had one this past week that was a truly mind-bending departure from reality.  AOC told the Washington Times that "a lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out."  "I believe it's a Walgreens in California cited it, but the data didn't back it up," she said.  Now, she says this in the face of numerous videos and reports of smash and grabs in Democratic cities across the country, in particular a spurt of such criminal actions in California.  So, it's fantasy to deny them.

'Flash Mobs'.  The facile assembly of large mobs of miscreants to raid retailers in San Francisco, Oakland, and Los Angeles is even more alarming than it seems. [...] More important than the incidents per se, however, is what they may reveal about the participants.  Lootings have been widely reported, mainly on the West Coast. [...] The focus here is on the flash mobs involving dozens of assailants.  Criminal flash mobs do not assemble spontaneously in an appointed location in response to a social media announcement.  The perps arrive as a group after some preparation: cars have multiple passengers, license plates have been covered or removed, and full-face coverings for the perps far exceed the exigencies of COVID. Once the perps leave their cars and enter the target stores, however, planning is no longer evident.  Bedlam ensues, the video records portraying controlled chaos in what might be described as an amalgam of the no-limit-shopping-challenge and a Black Friday at Walmart.  The trespass is brief.  Perps collect their prizes, load them into cars, and disappear in multiple directions.

L.A. Arrests 14 for 'Mass Looting,' but Lets All of Them Go.  Officials in Los Angeles announced Thursday with great fanfare that they had made 14 arrests in connection with recent "mass looting" events in the city — but all fourteen have since been released from jail, either with or without posting bail. [...] "Progressive" policies to reduce or eliminate bail have come under the spotlight recently, after a number of high-profile crimes allegedly committed by those released, including a mass murder in a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  California has a particular problem:  not only is cash bail being removed, but the state is governed by Proposition 47 of 2014, which makes retail thefts of up to $950 misdemeanors instead of felonies, meaning that fewer are ever fully prosecuted.  Both Los Angeles and San Francisco have seen mass looting events in the past several weeks.

The Usual Suspects Smash And Grabbing Jewelry In Los Angeles.  You can't make it through the day on social media without seeing several videos of thugs smashing and grabbing businesses in either Los Angeles or San Francisco.  These thugs targeted a shopping center in Los Angeles, robbing jewelry from a merchant as he tried to fight them off.  Seeking to quell growing public concern amid a surge in "smash-and grab" robberies, authorities in Los Angeles announced Thursday that 14 people have been arrested in connection with 11 such robberies from North Hollywood to South Los Angeles in recent weeks.  [Video clip]

Smashing and Grabbing Blue America into Ruin.  The recent spate of brazen organized store lootings in Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, and surroundings aren't the beginning of societal unraveling in those places, but the latest manifestations.  They represent a new stage and an acceleration.  It's no accident that this mayhem is lopsidedly centered in blue strongholds.  Note that these smash-and-grab robberies aren't confined to poor neighborhoods in big blue cities, but have spread to middle-class and upscale areas — areas frequented or inhabited by the affluent, (mostly) white progressives who have favored defunding police and emptying prisons.  Their virtue-signaling about equity and justice is well and good until they become victims — or, at least, feel threatened.

America's smash-and-grab crime wave baffles congressional Democrats.  Democrats on Capitol Hill are flummoxed by the waves of smash-and-grab retail thefts in their states, with some denying it's happening and others saying they are not ready to make major shoplifting a felony.  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, New York Democrat, said retailers could be fabricating the rash of smash-and-grab burglaries and "flash mob" shoplifting sprees.  "We have to talk about specifics because, for example, we're actually seeing a lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out," she told The Washington Times. [...] Organized crime theft slammed big-box retail stores including Apple, Nordstrom and Home Depot in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Minneapolis and other cities, according to police reports.

Fights break out at MSP Airport, are quickly subdued.  Police are investigating a series of fights that broke out at Terminal 2 of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport just before midnight Friday.  The fights erupted among a dozen or so male and female passengers after two large groups deplaned from a Frontier Airlines flight, according to Patrick Hogan, spokesman for the Metropolitan Airports Commission, which operates MSP.  A video of the incident, which lasted just over a minute, was posted on social media and shared by more than 7,000 people by midday Monday.

Wild Fight Breaks Out Between A Dozen People In Minnesota Airport.  Social media posts show a violent brawl involving at least seven people that erupted inside the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport (MSP).  Footage of the incident was uploaded to Facebook and Instagram and seems to have occurred over the Thanksgiving holiday.  The footage posted to Facebook shows a group of men and women striking each other.  One woman is pushed to the ground by two attackers who continue to assault her as she struggles to stand.  Another woman appears to use a trash can lid as a weapon.  A third wields a metal post as the fight spills into a closed security checkpoint.  [Video clip]

The Looting Will Stop When Store Owners Can Shoot On Sight.  In the upside-down morality of the left, it is perfectly acceptable for criminal gangs to target high-end stores free of consequences.  At once ascribing poverty, immoral historical legacies, and contemporary systemic racism, we are supposed to believe that what is happening is actually a form of justice.  Nothing could be further from the truth.  There is no moral or humanitarian justification for the now-daily shoplifting and burglary sprees witnessed time and again in various California cities and across the country.  Are the black youths hungry?  Are they robbing a grocery store?  Are they impoverished, thereby stealing the jewelry to sell?  Or, are they simply products of a failed culture that are protected and encouraged by malicious political actors?  It should be as simple as saying that stealing is wrong.  If it is not yours, don't take it.  If you want something, earn it.  It is a crime in and of itself that the criminal justice system allows this perverse form of social engagement to continue.

Do store owners prefer to be looted by whites?  According to some creative minds in media and academia, there's a new politically correct term for looting.  Those who believe in the magical power of linguistic reform have decided that looting is a racist term.  Therefore, if must be euphemistically transformed in order to be non-offensive to those who smash storefront windows and doors, run through retail establishments, and steal everything in sight.  Lorenzo Boyd, a criminal justice professor at the University of New Haven, said:  "Looting is a term that we typically use when people of color or urban dwellers are doing something.  We tend not to use that term for other people when they do the exact same thing." [...] The City by the Bay has been the scene of several rapacious lootings, with businesses losses numbering in six figures.  Yet the best they can get from law enforcement is an argument over the racial connotation in the use of words.  When one police chief called it "looting," he was quickly chastised by some in the media and others in the constabulary.  Sergeant Christian Camarillo, a San Jose police spokesman, said it should not be called looting because it's an organized robbery.  I feel certain that those store owners felt relieved when they realized they had been robbed rather than looted.

BLM Looters Loot Each Other After They Stole A Merchandise From The Nearest Store.  Walnut Creek police and city officials warned businesses Sunday that the same group of thieves that targeted a Nordstrom at Broadway Plaza on Saturday night may try to steal from shops again in the next few days.  While the thievery threat is unconfirmed, and a specific location and time remain unknown, police who are "actively monitoring intelligence" said in a community tweet that businesses "may consider closing early or taking other precautions ... out of an abundance of caution."  According to the tweet, the Walnut Creek police are calling out additional officers and reserves.  [Video clip]

Looters Loot Each Other During Black Friday 100% Off Sales In San Francisco.  Things have gotten so out of control in the Walnut Creek area of San Francisco, looters are now looting each other.  Black Friday apparently means 100% off in San Francisco.  Best of luck, retailers.  [The same video clip]

Retired Oakland police officer murdered while protecting news crew documenting smash-and-grab retail looters.  Kevin Nishita, a father of two and grandfather of three, was shot and killed while protecting a TV crew covering the surge of smash-and-grab crimes in the Bay Area.  Nishita, a security guard on assignment to guard a KRON4 news team in Oakland, was shot and killed when a robber targeted the TV crew to rob them of their cameras.  Nishita, a retired Asian American police officer, confronted one of a dozen masked looters to protect the news crew, and one of the thugs shot him in the abdomen.  He died after being transported to hospital in critical condition.

Possible Lakewood Home Depot Robbery Suspects Arrested in Beverly Hills.  Four suspects that police believe might be involved in the flash mob robbery at Home Depot in the Lakewood Center Mall are in custody Saturday [11/27/2021]. [...] Approximately eight males entered the store at 7:46 p.m. Friday, walked directly to the tool isle and stole various sledgehammers, crowbars and hammers, said Deputy Miguel Meza of the Sheriff's Information Bureau.  Store employees said a group of up to 20 males from 15 to 20 years old pulled up to the store in up to 10 cars, put on ski masks and began stealing sledgehammers and crowbars.

Wild Smash-and-Grabs in Dem Cities Now Turn Deadly.  We tend to think of Black Friday as the day that we can pick up some good deals at the stores.  But instead, we've been seeing people thinking they could get more than a good deal — a five-finger discount, in fact.  It's happening at expensive stores in Democratic cities, particularly in California when they know that because of leftist prosecutors there, they will likely not suffer any real consequences even if they are caught in the act.  This is all courtesy of the Democratic policy of being lenient on crime.  When even CNN is recognizing this as a problem in cities like San Francisco and Chicago, then you know Democrats can't hide the hard reality of what their policies are causing.

Up to 30 conduct Black Friday robbery at Best Buy in Burnsville.  A group of 20 to 30 people grabbed numerous electronic items Friday evening [11/26/2021] at the Best Buy store in Burnsville and quickly fled before police could arrive.  No weapons were seen in the incident and no one was reported injured, Burnsville police Capt. Don Stenger said.  No one had been arrested as of Saturday morning.  "We don't know exactly what was taken or the dollar value," Stenger said.  The robbery occurred shortly after 8 p.m. on Black Friday, one of the busiest shopping days of the year following the Thanksgiving holiday.  There were unconfirmed media reports that a similar robbery conducted by a smaller group also happened Friday at the Best Buy in Maplewood.

The news media painstakingly avoid any description of the suspects, even when they all have one obvious attribute in common.

Los Angeles-area looters target Home Depot, Bottega Veneta stores on Black Friday: reports.  Officials in California sent word earlier this week that they planned to crack down on "smash and grab" robberies and flash-mob-style looting after numerous recent incidents up and down the state.  But apparently not everybody got the message.  At least two such incidents occurred in Los Angeles County on Black Friday, according to reports.  In Lakewood, a group of suspects ages 15 to 20 stormed a Home Depot store around 8:30 p.m. and grabbed tools such as crowbars, mallets and sledgehammers before getting away in vehicles that were waiting outside, FOX 11 of Los Angeles reported.  One entire section of hammers was completely cleared out, Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies told the station.

Home Depot smash and grab as teen thieves aged 15 to 20 take off with hammers and crowbars.  Teen thieves descended on Home Depot as part of a smash and grab robbery before taking off with sledgehammers and crowbars amid Black Friday chaos across the US.  Up to ten young men — believed to be aged 15 to 20 — stormed the DIY store on Hardwick Street in Lakewood, Los Angeles at around 7.45 pm.  Employees said the mob pulled up in vehicles with ski masks on before grabbing multiple tools and fleeing into several waiting cars.  The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said the entire hammer section was cleared by the suspects.

CNN Analyst Has 'No Idea' What's Behind 'Smash and Grab' Robberies — Then Gives up the Answer.  A CNN analyst — a former Philadelphia police commissioner and CNN senior law enforcement analyst, no less — serves up a perfect example of why CNN's ratings continue to swirl down the toilet at breakneck speed.  Simply put, can't make it up; don't have to.  And the best part is they totally don't get it.  Or do they? [...] As we've reported, flash-mob robberies, so-called "smash and grabs," which are rampant [...] in many Democrat-run cities across America, have become all the rage.  As is the case with any important issue facing the country, the key question is why are they occurring and what do have to do to stop them?  In what can only be described as "the genius of CNN," the above-mentioned analyst, Charles Ramsey, has pondered the same question.  While the former police commissioner and law enforcement analyst claims to have "no idea" why the wave of robberies continues to occur (utter nonsense; of course he knows exactly why the robberies continue to occur), he did manage to provide the answer while pretending to be clueless.

Shooting At Durham, North Carolina Mall Sends Shoppers Running For Cover, 3 Injured Including One Child.  Three people were shot at Durham's Southpoint mall Friday, during one of the busiest shopping days of the year.  One of those injured was a 10-year-old who was hit by a bullet ricochet, Durham Police Chief Patrice Andrews said.  The child was taken to the hospital with what appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries, according to a follow-up police news release.  Police provided no information about the others who were shot, but did say three additional people suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the aftermath of the shooting that were not gunshot wounds.  [Video clip]

Flash mob smash-and-grabs continue at high-end stores in Los Angeles.  A rash of flash mob thefts continued in Los Angeles as organized groups grabbed expensive merchandise in pre-Thanksgiving raids on stores in the Beverly Center and a Nordstrom in Canoga Park.  A security guard was attacked with bear spray as several people entered the Nordstrom at the Westfield Topanga & The Village shopping center in Canoga Park on Wednesday night, the Los Angeles Police Department said in a news release.  In interviews with local TV stations, LAPD Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton said the burglars made off with several high-end purses.

Robbers Hit California Apple Store, Make Off With $20,000 Worth Of Items.  A San Francisco-area Apple store was targeted Wednesday by robbers and looters in broad daylight, resulting in thousands of dollars in losses.  Police in Santa Rosa, located approximately 50 miles from San Francisco, said the incident occurred around 11:30 a.m. local time, involving four black male suspects.  They said the "brazen daytime burglary" occurred in front of staff and customers, with thieves stealing $20,000 in goods from the store.  They then fled the scene in a vehicle, officials said.  The Santa Rosa Police Department released photos of the suspects, who were described as "four young, Black males between 14 and 18 years old" and who were "wearing mostly black clothing with masks covering their faces."  No details about the vehicles released.

Look for bear spray at your favorite inner-city convenience store — right next to the ski masks.
Bear Spray Used in Latest Smash-and-Grab Robbery at Los Angeles Mall.  Nordstrom store in a mall in Los Angeles County was robbed Wednesday evening by thieves who used a chemical spray on a security guard to get inside the building.  The store, which is located at the Westfield Topanga & The Village shopping mall in Canoga Park, was hit by a group of thieves shortly before 7 p.m. local time as some shoppers were still inside the store, according to KABC-TV.  Deputy Chief Alan Hamilton with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) told KTLA-TV that one of the thieves pushed and sprayed a security guard at the store with "some kind of chemical substance" as others within the group rushed inside to grab items.

I don't know how many black people have purchased bear spray, but I suspect that the number of them who have ever seen a bear is zero.

Looting gang target LA Nordstrom stealing pricy handbags and assaulting security guard.  A looting gang have targeted an LA Nordstrom, making off with eight luxury handbags and assaulting a cop — the latest in a string of smash-and-grab raids to plague California.  Five people, one wearing an orange wig, entered the open store in Canoga Park shortly before 7 pm on Wednesday and sprayed a security guard with 'some kind of chemical' in front of terrified shoppers, police said.  The thieves sped off and managed to escape with thousands of dollars worth of handbags despite multiple police cruisers, as well as fire trucks and ambulances, responding to the raid.

Looting for Amusement and Luxury Goods.  Walnut Creek is a quiet exurban town outside of San Francisco.  It uncharacteristically made national news over the last few days, and not for anything good.  It was the scene of a large-scale smash and grab in the wake of the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict.  Over a dozen vehicles pulled up to the Broadway Plaza shopping mall.  Some eighty vandals, some wielding crowbars, ran inside Nordstrom and stole merchandise.  Five Nordstrom employees were physically assaulted.  The action was said to be over in less than a minute.  With their bounty in hand, estimated at $200,000, the thieves drove off in different directions.  Only three were apprehended.  Of those, one was illegally carrying a firearm.  The media has omitted the race of the perpetrators, a policy that ironically makes race even more salient.  Video footage shows the perpetrators were black.  Eyewitness accounts confirm that.  And the same tactic and demographic makeup were seen at the Louis Vuitton smash and grab earlier in San Francisco.

Young Black Adults Storm a Pharmacy, Rob People of their Much Needed Medications.  A pharmacy in Oakland California was robbed of all it's medications, leaving people who used the Wellspring Pharmacy as their source for medications, without their life saving help.  Watch as a brazen, organized robbery takes place, emptying this pharmacy out of its medications just momnents before 7:40 PM on Saturday [11/20/2021].  A rash of robberies has occurred throughout the US over the past several months as more and more Democrat controlled cities downgrade the crimes to misdemeanors, which is only encouraging more robberies.  [Video clip]

Black Lies Matter.  I dare you to look, with a clear and unfiltered lens, at the bloody nightmare we once called the United States of America.  Connect the dots.  Contemplate the utter chaos in every major city while Black Lives Matter militants, academics and bureaucrats prattle on about "systemic racism" and "two-tiered justice." [...] Look at the living hellhole of New York City, where homeless lunatics push random strangers off subway platforms, repeat offenders rob and beat pedestrians on their way to work, and druggies urinate, defecate and fornicate openly on once-safe tourist thoroughfares.  Look at Oak Brook, Illinois, just outside woke-hijacked Chicago, where mobs of diverse thieves carted off $120,000 from a Louis Vuitton store on Wednesday afternoon.  Look at Walnut Creek, California, where roving bands of black-clad gangs absconded with $200,000 worth of merchandise from Nordstrom.  Similar crime rings hit luxury stores in Hayward, San Jose, and Los Angeles.  We are all supposed to pretend we can't discern the race of the criminals so "experts" can castigate us for using racist terms like "looting" to describe ... looting.

Quiet, everyone!  The Experts are about to speak!
Experts caution use of 'looting' in describing rash of Bay Area smash and grabs.  Bay Area police departments have called what happened at various retail stores this weekend "looting."  We saw similar crimes happen in the wake of the George Floyd protests, but are the past weekend's crimes truly considered looting?

Looters Hit Jewelry Store In San Francisco Mall In Broad Daylight.  Hayward police said 8 to 10 individuals carrying sledgehammers entered Sam's Jewelry in Southland Mall around 5:25 p.m. Sunday, smashed several jewelry cases, and fled carrying an unknown amount of loot.  No arrests were made.  The suspects fled in several vehicles, Hayward police Lt. Mark Ormsby said.  [Video clip]

Dozens Of Looters Storm Nordstroms In Commiefornia — Where Else.  Dozens of looters swarmed into the Nordstrom store in downtown Walnut Creek Saturday night [11/20/2021], terrorizing shoppers, ripping off bag loads of merchandise and ransacking shelves before fleeing in a several vehicles waiting for them on the street.  Walnut Creek Lt. Ryan Hibbs told KPIX 5 that police began receiving calls about the looting at around 9 p.m.  He said there were approximately 80 individuals who ran into the store and began looting and smashing shelves.  Video shot at the scene shows the masked looters streaming out of the store, carrying bags and boxes, jumping into the cars.  Dozens of police vehicles also responded to the scene.  [Video clip]

Cultural Marxism, Are We Supposed to Ignore What All the San Francisco Looters Have in Common?  Perhaps there is a rule book somewhere that says you must not point out that all of the San Francisco looters who hit Nordstrom and Louis Vuitton are black.  There are hundreds of media reports talking about the brazen nature of the ongoing mob and rob situations, but no one seems to point out what they all have in common.  All of the people doing the robbing are black.  Here's an example of CBS outlining a massive mob-n-rob of Nordstroms just outside San Francisco.  [Video clip]

The Weimar Republic Comes to Nordstrom.  I drove over to the Nordstrom in Nashville's Green Hills neighborhood today, intending to do a little early Hanukkah and Christmas shopping, but there was so much traffic heading into the parking structure that I just gave up.  Maybe it was due to those supply-chain fears.  And this was only a day after between 50 and 80 looters, according to first-hand reports, invaded a Nordstrom in Walnut Creek, California, pepper spraying and punching people who got in their way before they made off with their booty in waiting cars.  Even if those numbers are exaggerated — and we have no reason so far to disbelieve them — and only 30 or 40 of those thugs ransacked the department store, imagine the horror for shoppers and employees.  Only a day before, on Nov. 20, if we're to believe Twitter reports that include videos (the mainstream media no longer bothers with this), swank stores such as Louis Vuitton were being looted in downtown San Francisco.  Public safety is literally defunct in the Bay Area and Los Angeles as well.  Evident from their actions, the district attorneys of San Fransico and Los Angeles have shown more sympathy for criminals than for their victims, rich or poor.

Bay Area is hit by third consecutive day of looting as 50-strong hammer gang storms mall jewelry store.  San Francisco Bay has been hit by a third day of brazen looting, with a gang of thieves filmed smashing glass cases at a jewelry store and emptying them as staff screamed in terror.  The latest incident happened at a Sam's Jewelers store at the Southland Mall in Hayward around 5:30 pm PST Sunday evening, and was caught on camera.  Robbers — said to have been part of a gang of around 40 to 50 teens who entered the mall — wielded hammers to smash display cases at Sam's, before making off with goods.  Dramatic footage shot from a nearby store showed shop workers screaming with fear as the disturbing scene unfolded.  Also on Sunday, another gang of looters snatched garments from upmarket yoga clothing brand Lululemon's San Jose store, KPIX reported.

Up to 40 Looters Target California Bay Area Stores for the Third Straight Day.  Another mob of looters targeted several San Francisco Bay Area retailers on Sunday night, marking the third such incident in as many days.  Police told CBS San Francisco that they responded to the multiple calls of smash-and-grab looting incidents at the Southland Mall in Hayward, located south of Oakland and north of San Jose.  They told the station that robbers used hammers to smash cases before running off with jewelry at a jewelry store.  "I would say at least 30 to 40 [people] from what I saw," an unnamed witness told San Francisco CBS Local, which was corroborated by another witness.  "But then after the main group of kids rushed out, we saw 15 to 20 scattering, some even came back in."  A nearby Macy's store in the mall was also ransacked, witnesses told the station.  "We saw all the other stores closing.  They were panicking, so we were panicking and quickly closed our store and barricaded ourselves," said another female witness.

San Fran Police Chief Lists All The Stores That Were Looted On Friday [11/19/2021] As City Descends Into Chaos.  Police say around 8:10 p.m. on Friday, officers responded to reports of possible looting and vandalism to retail establishments in the Union Square Area.  Chief Scott listed at least 10 businesses that were targeted including Bloomingdale's, Burberry and Louis Vuitton.  "This is unacceptable," the chief added.  [Video clip]

Looting Comes to the Suburbs.  Cities like Portland, Minneapolis and San Francisco have been devastated by rioting and looting.  But smug suburban liberals haven't seemed to mind much, as long as crime was confined to urban centers like Minneapolis and San Francisco, where, on Friday night, Union Square was looted.  But what will they think when disorder strikes closer to home?  Last night [11/20/2021], an organized gang of looters struck the Nordstrom store in Walnut Creek, California.  Walnut Creek is a prosperous community of around 64,000, 85% white and Asian.  The raid was well-coordinated, as 25 cars blocked the street in front of the store while dozens of looters ran inside, stole merchandise, and left in the waiting vehicles.  Apparently only three of the looters were arrested.

Gang of eighty crowbar-wielding looters in ski masks ransack California Nordstrom and fill 25 cars with designer goods.  Eighty looters ransacked a Nordstrom store in California's Bay Area on Saturday night, injuring at least three employees in a raid that lasted less than a minute.  The large group,wearing ski masks and carrying crowbars, rushed the Walnut Creek store, stole an undetermined amount of merchandise and fled in their vehicles.  During the theft, two Nordstrom workers were punched and kicked, while another was sprayed with pepper spray.  All three individuals were treated for their injuries on scene.  Walnut Creek police have arrested three people in connection to the incident and they are facing various charges including robbery, conspiracy, burglary, possession of stolen property and a weapons charge.  The brazen robbery comes as Bay Area businesses reduce their hours due to a spate of brazen shoplifting incidents.  Locals are also slamming woke San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin over his failure to prosecute thefts.

Newly Released CCTV Footage Shows Crazy Shooting Inside Aventura Mall Sending Everyone Running For The Tall Grass.  Newly released surveillance video shows shoppers running for their lives right after gunshots rang out at Aventura Mall in Florida earlier this year.  The surveillance footage, released Wednesday [11/17/2021], comes after police announced a second arrest in connection with the May 8 shooting that left three people injured.  Norman Lee Pickens, 21, faces three counts of attempted second-degree murder, according to an arrest affidavit.  Back in June, police arrested 18-year-old Chrisey Irwim Pressley on a charge of illegally carrying a concealed firearm.  The shooting happened while the mall was packed with shoppers on the Saturday before Mother's Day.  The surveillance video shows what appears to be a group of people getting into an argument on the first floor outside of the Nordstrom department store.  Suddenly, a man in a black tracksuit drops his shopping bags, turns around, takes aim and fires his gun.  [Video clip]

Shoplifters casually rob California Marshalls as people watch, employees do not report crime.  Multiple shoplifters in California were seen brazenly stealing from a Marshalls location as the crime continues in the state.  "People shopping there were just kind of standing there watching.  The only thing I figured I could do was get their identities and their license plates and give them to somebody who will do something with them," witness Lindsey Rodriguez, a resident of Hemet who recorded the suspects, told NBC4.  Rodriguez said she saw one man stroll out of the store with his arms full of clothing on Saturday evening [9/25/2021] in Hemet, and said one woman used wire cutters to sever security tags on expensive purses.

The authorities also failed to mention (and thus the news media was afraid to say) that everybody in the unruly crowd was black.

San Francisco shoplifting:  Women caught on video allegedly bolting from CVS with bags full of stolen goods.  A witness captured a group of women running out of a San Francisco CVS Pharmacy with bags allegedly stuffed full of stolen items as a spree of retail thefts continue to plague the city.  The incident, first reported by KTVU FOX2 reporter Henry K.

'Please protest and loot responsibly'.  Jacob Zuma's son has urged looters to 'do so responsibly' and called for his father to be freed after South Africa's lawlessness entered its sixth consecutive day amid fears of a 'humanitarian crisis' with food, fuel and Covid medicine shortages.  The former president was locked up last Friday for failing to appear in court on corruption charges, prompting riots and looting across the country, with police forces totally absent or in some cases, officers participating.  Duduzane Zuma took to Instagram to call for his father to be freed and the Covid lockdown to end, claiming that with troops now deployed the country was 'just one massacre away from a complete spiralling out of control.'

This Is The Apocalyptic Hell That Is South Africa Right Now, Looks Eerily Like A Typical BLM Riot.  This was the pathetic scene at Watercrest Mall in Waterfall, KZN, South Africa as what looked like a zombie horde looted stores and stole anything and everything from, clothing to refrigerators to entire stoves.  Aidan David, a former police officer and chairperson of the eThekwini outer south community police forum, said he has never witnessed anything like this.  "It just goes to show that our country is ill-equipped, naked and vulnerable to crime and criminals.  We are not ready for this.  We are just sitting ducks," he said.  [Video clip]

What's happening in San Francisco goes far beyond 'shoplifting'.  We're hearing a lot about the overwhelming number of murders and attempted murders in Chicago and New York.  San Francisco, however, has gone in a different direction.  It seems to have become the "shoplifting" capital of America.  This honor goes along with its long having been the capital of America for car break-ins.  It's so bad that I know suburbanites who refuse to drive in the City.  The latest "shoplifting" video is an impressive one, showing a whole gang of thieves racing out of San Francisco's Neiman Marcus store on Union Square, clutching what appears to be thousands of dollars in handbags.

Chicago shows the existential danger behind the Democrats' policies.  A brutal, race-based execution on a major Chicago street highlights where Democrat policies are taking us.  Their obsessive focus on race, coupled with their attacks on moral law, criminal justice, and social norms, will turn all of America into Chicago unless we refuse to go along with a program that affects every facet of American life, from the federal government down to the smallest school board. [...] Democrats instantly invoked gun control, but it's clear watching the slaughter that this crowd would as readily have executed Arzuago and Perez with knives or simply beaten them to death.  What we are seeing here is a return to stone-age savagery.  It is a reminder that human beings have only the thinnest veneer of civilization.

Man In A Red Car Is Attacked By Three Black People Armed With A Knife And Hammer.  When massive demonstrations against racial injustice erupted across the nation last summer, protesters used an increasingly common tactic to draw attention to their cause: swarming out onto major roads to temporarily paralyze traffic.  This method sometimes resulted in searing images of drivers plowing through crowds, causing serious injuries and in some cases, deaths.  Now, Republican politicians across the country are moving to stop the road-blocking maneuver, proposing increased penalties for demonstrators who run onto highways and legal immunity for drivers who hit them.  The bills are among dozens introduced in Legislatures aimed at cracking down on demonstrations.  [Video clip]

Police looking for teens who terrorized Southeast Portland businesses and drivers.  Monday afternoon [5/17/2021] near Southeast 92nd and Division, police say a handful of teens walked into a convenience store, spread out and stole a bunch of things.  On their way out, investigators say, the suspects pushed an employee.  After leaving the convenience store, authorities say the group walked into a restaurant a few blocks away, yelled at staff and stole a tip jar.  According to detectives, the teens then turned their attention to a hair salon near Southeast 82nd and Division.  The suspects walked in and started throwing products off shelves before going into an employee area and stealing some things.  The teens, police say, even tried to take a customer's purse.

Shootings and chaos in Portland (with a possible connection to 'defund the police').  Monday a small group of four to five teenagers apparently woke up and decided to launch a brazen crime spree that spanned several businesses: [...] About 40 minutes after the initial theft, they entered a hair salon: [...] Half an hour later they were stealing from a driver in a parking lot: [...] Half an hour after that they escalated to carjacking: [...] A couple hours later, they tried to use the stolen car to block the road and carjack a second car but the driver managed to get away.  As of yesterday afternoon, police still aren't sure if there are other victims of this crime spree who haven't been identified yet.  Portland police posted two photos showing some of the teens involved.  Meanwhile just a couple hours after this crime spree took place, a large group of people showed up at a McDonalds and began racing their cars in the parking lot and threatening people.

An airport brawl seems like a microcosm of America.  A few videos are making the rounds showing a wild brawl taking place at one of the gates in Miami International Airport.  We don't know what started the brawl, although the media are reporting that the police did eventually arrest one person for disorderly conduct.  The primary victim, however, does not want to press charges, so the matter will almost certainly disappear.  What makes one of the videos so compelling is the fact that it seemly represents the breakdown of law and order across American cities.  That sense begins with the video's backdrop.  Because of the relationship between the person who filmed the video and the fight itself, the backdrop to the fight is a store in the terminal called "Urban Decay."

Mob with Hammers Descends on Minneapolis East Bank LRT Patrons.  [Scroll down]  A mob of eight to 10 males wielding hammers descended upon bystanders at the East Bank Light Rail station on Friday night [5/17/2019] injuring several, according to recorded police dispatch audio.  The incident was apparently reported to 911 just before 10 p.m. on Friday according to the audio and other social media police scanner reports.  A 9:48 p.m.  Facebook post on 2nd Precinct Minneapolis Crime Watch page said that University of Minnesota (U of M) police were requesting assistance from Minneapolis police (MPD) and Metro Transit police for "a group of 8-10 males chasing people with hammers" and that some people were injured.  A Facebook post a minute later on Minneapolis Scanner page said that the three police departments were responding to "multiple [911] calls" about "10-12 Somali teen males armed with hammers chasing people," also with "several injuries reported."  Both Facebook pages regularly post summaries of police scanner audio.  A person who claimed on social media to have been at the station when the incident occurred said that the group of males had "hammers and bars," and that they seemed to be "attacking anyone who looked like they had money or were white."

Information slowly emerging about pipe-wielding mob of Somali 'youths' who attacked people waiting for light rail train in Minneapolis last Friday.  My hometown of Minneapolis has been totally transformed by the arrival of tens of thousands of refugees from Somalis, one of whom now represents the city and a few suburbs in Congress.  Nobody there was asked if such a makeover was desired by the residents; State Department officials decided that the generous welfare benefits available in Minnesota were reason enough to send people whose native land is tropical to the coldest major city in the United States.  But now that the old 97%-plus Caucasian city has been made into a multicultural exemplar, the local establishment, including the newspapers and broadcasters, is ultra-protective of its prized diversity-endowing Somali community.  That might explain why the news of a horrific attack on people waiting for a light rail train at the University of Minnesota has been so slow to emerge.

Whitewashing Black College Beach Week.  Black College Beach Week was organized by black people, for black people, promoted by black people, on black radio stations, at black colleges.  They sent buses to pick up members of black fraternities and sororities.  And they brought them all to Virginia Beach.  And they raised holy, violent, unapologetic, race-conscious hell.  Or as WTKR TV described the week:  "Guns, knives, fights:  Complete chaos."  Much of it was on video.  Even so, every step of the way, local politicos and media types tried to minimize and deny the violence and who was responsible.

Outbreak of Colorblindness Strikes Chicago Reporters.  Chicago picked a strange time to go all colorblind on us.  The occasion was the occasional riot in one of America's premier high-end shopping districts:  the Magnificent Mile.  Wednesday night [4/17/2019], 500 people rampaged through downtown looting, destroying property, attacking white people, defying police, stopping traffic, threatening tourists, and created lots of mayhem and chaos.  All on video.  Some of which you can find [online].  If local media is to be believed, race had nothing to do with the fact that every single one of the rioters was black.  Strange behavior from a local media that is obsessed with race, especially white racism and black victimization.

Alderman believes Foxx's "soft on crime" policies to blame for "wilding" by teens in Chicago.  A Chicago alderman believes "soft on crime" policies by Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx helped embolden hundreds of teens who took part in a massive "wilding" in downtown Chicago Wednesday night [4/17/2019].  Chicago police say more than 30 teens were arrested, and it has merchants on the Mag Mile jittery.  Police estimate about 500 teens, spurred on by social media, flooded into the downtown area, many intending to create havoc.

Roaming mob of 'urban youth' terrorized Chicago's 'Magnificent Mile' in below-freezing weather, sent Asian bystander to the hospital.  Cold weather no longer is acting as a deterrent to the marauding mobs of teenagers (of no particular demographic characteristic, according to Chicago mainstream media) roaming through Chicago's showcase shopping district along Upper Michigan Avenue around the Water Tower.  News of the attack could not be ignored, because the famous Water Tower Place Mall had to be closed and because the mob sent an innocent bystander waiting on a subway platform to the hospital.

Here's a Definite Round Up of All the Best Black Friday Brawls You Missed Today.  There's a chill in the air, pretty much everybody's diet is out the window, and the spirit of consumerism is in the air.  Black Friday is always special, but this year, it somehow felt even better.  Maybe it's because everybody has a cell phone and is able to capture the most bloody, brutal, savage and unbelievable brawls of the year.

You Didn't Hear About This Mob Attack in Minnesota.  On Saturday, September 22, 2018, while the world focused on the tragedy in Iran of the Ahvaz military parade attack carried out by ISIS, a mob of Somali Muslim men and boys rushed the entrance to Valleyfair, a family amusement park that had set aside the day to honor law enforcement in Minnesota.  The mob overcame security, jumping fences avoiding metal detectors while bringing in weapons.  It was a direct, premeditated attack on police and security.  Backup had to be called in along with fire trucks, ambulances and even a police helicopter.  This attack should be understood as a "dry run" test (in counterterrorism parlance).

Black Violence:  The Terror That Dare Not Speak Its Name.  On Halloween, hundreds of black people rampaged through Hyde Park in Chicago — home to Barack Obama, Bill Ayers, and Louis Farrakhan — destroying property, defying police, setting fires.  Watch any of the videos, then try to tell the neighbors they are not being terrorized.  But no one was arrested, so it never happened.  Except on video.  In South Jersey, two white kids were hospitalized with serious head injuries they received after they refused to give their trick or treat candy to the 10-20 black people who demanded it.  Think that's not an act of terror just because the black people did not leave a thank you note?  Or a sign that said 'Vote for Maxine?' Or a demand for more free stuff?  Guess again.  In Dallas, five cops were killed during a Black Lives Matter parade.  Afterward, black people looted a 7-11 then stuck around under the gaze of local police, dancing — yes, dancing — with joy, celebrating the carnage.

The first hot weekend brings violent mobs to Chicago streets as media turn a blind eye.  "Wilding" is the term for mobs of violent young people taking over upscale neighborhoods and wreaking havoc, looting, mugging, and attacking innocent people just for the fun of it.  A "good" neighborhood is no guarantee of safety anymore in Chicago.  The breakdown of civil order, in other words, is well underway in the Windy City.  Bit by bit, civilization is slipping away in Chicago.

Why the 'Racist America' Meme is Collapsing.  On May 5, one day after Don Lemon claimed that it is his "obligation as a journalist" to call the president racist, a violent "flash mob" of mostly black teenagers broke out in Chicago's Magnificent Mile.  Groups of teenagers took to the streets and randomly attacked pedestrians.  Responding officers were "vastly outnumbered."  Dozens of teens beat up a man walking with his girlfriend, sending him to an intensive care unit.  One teen is facing a felony count of aggravated battery to an officer.  The event was virtually identical to an incident from 2013, where, again, hundreds of mostly black teenagers took to streets and caused mayhem in Mag Mile.

Did you hear about the violent teen flash mob that took over Chicago's fanciest shopping area Saturday?  The end result of indoctrination in government schools and mass media that teaches "urban youths" that American society is racist, corrupt, unfair, and unworthy of compliance is the crumbling of civil order.  When a substantial group of young males (the segment of society most prone to acting out with violence) think they have no stake in the continuation of existing social and property relations, they are able to impose anarchy in local areas.  When enough people think and feel this way, the forces of order — police, and in extremis the National Guard — can be overwhelmed and powerless to stop the disorder.  This nightmare scenario is developing step by step.  The rise of social media enables the organization of what are now called "flash mobs" that can descend on targets and cause chaos.  Sometimes, targets are chosen for the lucrative looting opportunities.  That appears to be what happened last Saturday night [5/4/2018] on Chicago's Magnificent Mile, at the very heart of upscale shopping, dining, and residential life, the Water Tower Place, a multistory shopping mall at the base of a 74-story tower.

Goodbye, tourism industry!
Violent Teenagers Terrorize Baltimore's Inner Harbor With Random Attacks.  Baltimore's Inner Harbor area is one of the bright spots in the Maryland city.  It's the home of the U.S.S. Constellation and one of the country's great aquariums.  It has restaurants and shops, and is near Camden Yards, home of the Baltimore Orioles baseball team and M&T Bank Stadium, home of the Baltimore Ravens football team.  It is one of the main tourist attractions in Baltimore, drawing large crowds.  But over the past two weeks, violent groups of teenagers have randomly assaulted multiple individuals in and around the Inner Harbor area.  For now, the police have no suspects, and are identifying the group behind the assaults only as "juveniles."

NJ Family Visiting Baltimore Haunted By Random Teen Attack At Inner Harbor.  It's the heart of Baltimore's tourism industry, but the Inner Harbor turned into a nightmare for a visiting family of 10 earlier this month.  Out of nowhere, they were swarmed and beaten by a large number of teenagers.  While the family that was attacked does not want to be identified, they do want their story to be heard.

Family Swarmed, Beaten by 'Large Group of Teenagers' in Baltimore.  Earlier this month, a family of 10 was visiting Baltimore's picturesque Inner Harbor when suddenly a large mob surrounded them and beat them without provocation — think of it as a group-effort knockout game.  The family wasn't identified, but they spoke to local news about the ordeal.  "They swarmed us," a female victim said.  "They hit my husband in the head.  They knocked him out and then it was just complete bedlam."  The family was visiting from New Jersey on October 21 during the crowded Baltimore Marathon weekend.  The victims ranged from grandparents to grandchildren, according to WJZ.

New Liberal Canard:  Arresting Looters = White Supremacy.  Imagine a natural disaster hits, like when Hurricane Irma hit Florida or when Hurricane Harvey hit Texas, and suddenly the looters are out destroying store fronts and taking what they please.  Unfortunately, this happens regularly. [...] This is just a continuation of the liberal-forced degeneration of American English into political correctness: arguing against illegal immigration is being anti-Hispanic, fighting against Islamic terrorism is xenophobic, and now wanting to put looters in jail is white supremacy.

Florida looting crackdown is 'white supremacy,' claims author Sarah Jaffe.  An author and journalist came under fire on social media Monday [9/18/2017], after she tweeted a reply to an anti-looting warning from Miami police by saying:  "The carceral state... is inseparable from white supremacy."  The Miami Police Department took to Twitter on Sunday [9/17/2017], as Hurricane Irma battered the state.  "Thinking about looting?  Ask these guys how that turned out. #stayindoors," the post read, sharing a photo of people inside a jail cell.  Though Sarah Jaffe's tweet on Monday garnered 1,500 likes, it sparked more than 100 comments — many of which were critical and accused her of being racist.

As St. Louis Erupts, Democrats Own It.  The acquittal on Friday [9/15/2017] of a white cop on trial for murder for fatally shooting a black man in 2011 after a high-speed chase was immediately met with demonstrations and violence including attacks on police, property, and the media.  That was predictable, but what was equally and sadly on display were incendiary comments by local elected Democrat officials up and down the line that appeared to add more fuel to the already volatile fire in the streets. [...] None of these politicians — in the midst of a volatile situation with various agitators having planned and threatened to take action — encouraged people to respect the integrity of the judicial system that had rendered a verdict in the case.

The only time the news media refer to someone as "a black man" is when he is a victim, not a suspect.  Showing only one side of a coin, when everybody knows there's a nice side and an ugly side, is overt bias.

The Editor says...
The looters were not "walking out with various items."  They were running out with expensive sneakers.  That's all they were after.  Expensive athletic shoes are the currency of the ghetto.  They're like cigarettes in prison.  Notice also that the so-called news media strictly refrain from stating the obvious fact that all the looters are black.

Chicago Police unable to control thousand-strong gang party lasting hours.  At last we know why Chicago's homicide level is so out of control:  Gangs, not police control the streets.  The gangs know it; the police know it; and now, thanks to DNAinfo.com/Chicago, we know it.  A week ago, Chicago street gangs held a huge party in a park, with a thousand people attending, some brandishing firearms, terrifying neighbors for hours.  The police sent 25 squad cars, yet were outnumbered and unable to really do anything.

[...] In beautiful Las Vegas, police responding to a large group of black people fighting at a nightclub found three people stabbed and nobody saw nuttin'.  There are dozens of these kinds of "let out" fights at black clubs around the country every night.  Yes, every night.  While you sleep.  Ask a cop if you want the truth.  Not a reporter.  [...] In Syracuse, another large fight among another large group of black people in the daytime in downtown left three people with stab wounds, and everyone else there inflicted with a sudden case of amnesia. [...] In Des Moines, Iowa, a group of black people beat a white woman as they left a city bus.  City official refuse to release a video of the violence, because like the riot at BART, they say using video to find the black criminals would impede their investigation.  This is the same town where hundreds of black people a few years ago rampaged through the Iowa State Fair, declaring it was "Beat Whitey Night."  That went on for three nights.  Ditto for the Wisconsin state fair a few nights later.

40-60 Teens Storm BART Train, Rob Passengers.  This didn't get much media play anywhere else, but there was a shocking robbery late Saturday night in San Francisco when a swarm of 40-60 juveniles stormed a BART train, took over a railway car, and robbed the passengers.  The teens exited the train and disappeared into the surrounding East Oakland neighborhood.  And yes, the story in the San Francisco Chronicle somehow fails to mention the race of the wildlings.

Teen Mob Attacks Train, Violently Robs Passengers, Here In America.  Perhaps if Californians had "shall issue" concealed carry instead of "may issue" restrictions that leave residents in many counties virtually unable to obtain a carry permit then nonsense like this wouldn't happen... at least not twice.  I have to think that someone skillfully using a compact semi-automatic such as a Glock 19 would have been able to take down enough of these vermin to see the others scampering back to their holes empty-handed.

A Tale of Violence in Two Cities:  Augusta and Biloxi.  [M]ore than 65,000 black people gathered in Biloxi for the annual ball of confusion called Black Spring Break.  Cops and residents are calling it the worst Black Spring Break ever.  It took a few days for locals to figure out how bad it was.  They all knew the traffic was horrific.  The crowds of black people were twice as large as they were expecting.  And when the partygoers ran out of space at the beach, they pulled their cars into white Biloxi neighborhoods and set up barbecues and picnics on lawns in front of houses belonging to people they did not know.

Mob goes on teddy bear rampage at Oakland carnival; $30K lost.  A mob of teenagers stormed an Oakland carnival, stealing stuffed animals and other prizes in a free-for-all that left workers fearing for their safety, KRON reported.  About $30,000 in merchandise was lost in Saturday night's [3/11/2017] rampage at the Butler Carnival in East Oakland.  Workers told KRON that most of the prizes that were stolen were later smashed or ripped to shreds in a senseless display of vandalism.  Cellphone video footage showed teens helping themselves to teddy bears and other toy prizes.

Chair-hurling brawl breaks out in Bronx Seafood City eatery.  A group of boneheaded brawlers used chairs to beat one another in a no holds barred beatdown at a Bronx restaurant, according to police and video of the incident.  A brief video recording of the fight at the City Island eatery Seafood City emerged online Friday [2/24/2017].  The bedlam, which looks like a full blown WWE-style wrestling match, took place around 9:45 p.m., Thursday, according to police.  A dozen people can be seen in the clip tossing and using chairs as shields as well as throwing punches at one another.

Huge group of Florida women brawling is captured on video as 50 people watched.  Multiple videos that captured a large group of women brawling in a Florida neighborhood have led to criminal charges after they quickly went viral.  The cellphone videos showed the group of women fighting near several homes in Leesburg around 4.30pm on Monday.  Neighbors said the fight attracted a huge crowd just minutes after people began posting about it on social media.

Rallings: 'It's not our job to raise your children'.  Memphis Police Director Mike Rallings spoke out Tuesday [1/3/2017] about large teen disturbances at two malls last week, saying malls need to make sure they are taking care of security and parents need to keep a better eye on their kids.  "The mall has an incredible responsibility to make sure they have the proper practices in place," said Rallings.

Malls debate teen policies after rash of Christmas weekend fights.  An unusually high number of teen fights at shopping centers across the U.S. over the Christmas weekend is prompting some mall operators to re-examine security policies and consider controversial restrictions on when and how teens may shop.  Security task force members from malls across the U.S. conducted a conference call Tuesday [12/27/2016] to discuss strategies for preventing mayhem, which may include more mall security or even bans on teens coming to malls alone, after multiple reports of teen fights over the four-day holiday, said Stephanie Cegielski, vice president of public relations for the International Council of Shopping Centers.

Mayhem continues as 200 teens crash Philadelphia mall for Snapchat-planned brawl, officials say.  The mayhem that has rippled through malls in more than a dozen states continued Tuesday evening [12/27/2016], when about 200 rowdy teenagers showed up en masse at a Philadelphia mall in a gathering planned on Snapchat, officials said.  Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector Scott Small told ABC affiliate WPVI that police responded to a report of a disturbance at the Philadelphia Mills Mall at about 6:45 p.m.  The large group arrived by bus, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported, but only about 30 or 40 were able to get inside.  "They went to the food court area and that's when they started running around, yelling and screaming and acting disorderly," Small told WPVI./p>

Police Suspect Social Media in Mall Violence in at Least 9 States.  Social media may have contributed to a series of possibly related incidents in which groups of people, many of them teens, fought and created disturbances at shopping malls in at least nine states, according to authorities.  The disturbances erupted in malls from Arizona to North Carolina and drew hundreds of spectators in some cases, causing several malls to be closed.

Mall Fights Break Out Across the Country.  Fights broke out at malls around the country Monday night sending shoppers, who were looking for post-holiday deals, scrambling for the exits.

Fights, Shooting and Mayhem Break Out At Malls Across The U.S.  There were numerous incidents throughout the U.S. today as police responded to fights, shooting, looting, bloodshed and general mayhem in multiple States.  The mall issues and/or violence was reported in:  Manchester Connecticut, Beachwood Ohio, Monroeville Pennsylvania, Aurora Colorado, Fayetteville North Carolina, Elizabeth New Jersey and Aurora Illinois.  Various terms like "youth", "kids", "teens" and/or "students" appear amid the general media reports which accompany each story.  However, beyond the words there appears to be something the PC media are trying to avoid.  Something transparently obvious to those who are looking at each story.

Seattle Nike outlet gets completely Trashed by Black Friday shoppers.  It looked like the scene after an earthquake.  A sea of orange boxes littered the floors, shoes stuffed in every crevice, while confused people stood in shock.  But this was no natural disaster.  This was Black Friday at a Nike factory store in Seattle.  Horrified shoppers at the Seattle Premium Outlets in Tulalip, Washington, shared pictures and video of the store's dismal condition after the holiday weekend.

Black Friday hijacked by protesters.  As shoppers were busy making purchases on one of the most crucial shopping days of the year, hundreds of people took to the streets in cities across the country on Friday to protest various issues, including police mistreatment of minorities and retail workers to the fur trade industry.  In Illinois, activists have called for a shopping boycott in Chicago's downtown on Black Friday as around 400 people gathered in the city's Magnificent Mile shopping district to demand an elected civilian police review board.

Mob of 50-60 angry students surround student who didn't want to participate in the BLM movement.  On October 14th I told you about how the Seattle Schools were organizing a "Black Lives Matter" Day in an effort to close the achievement gap between black and white students.  Apparently the students at Todd Beamer High School in Federal Way (south of Seattle) thought that would be a great idea as well.  Turns out the event didn't go as planned.

Bottles, Rocks Thrown in Beach Brawl.  More than 100 people brawled on a Massachusetts beach Sunday evening [5/10/2015] in a melee that saw bottles and rocks hurled, some at police, and nine people arrested.  The fight broke out near the bandstand on Revere Beach soon before 6:15 p.m. when two girls or women began fighting, Mayor Dan Rizzo said.  Their boyfriends joined in, and then their boyfriends' friends, and it kept growing from there, he said.

New Details about Youth Attacks on Temple University Students, Bystanders.  Police were called on Friday, October 21, when the mob of teens began running around the campus attacking people who were walking the sidewalks on campus.  Police first claimed that perhaps as many as 50 attackers were involved, but now the number has been increased to over 150.  Also, earlier reports noted one or two victims of the attackers, but now that number includes at least six students and one police officer.

200 teen flash mob storms college, attacks students in the street.  When you hear "flash mob" you might think of a pre-planned dance in a spontaneous location.  Don't.  That is not the kind of flash mob that has occurred in Pennsylvania at Temple University's main campus.  The result has four young adults arrested and many victims struggling to recover.  Friday night [10/21/2016] there were several cases of violence that erupted on the campus.  Groups of around twenty young adults would target individuals or small group and attack them.  In some cases they stole their belongings.  This included a cell phones and speakers.  And many were injured.  One young woman was beaten so seriously she was hospitalized.

Mob attacks on Temple students stoke racial tensions.  The father of a Temple University sophomore who was beaten by a roving teen mob last week said people "should draw their own conclusions" about whether the string of attacks against students and cops was racially motivated.  Joe Lauletta, 50, wrote on Facebook a day after the flash mob-style attacks that a group of 30 to 40 "black teenagers" assaulted his daughter, Christina, 19, and her two male friends on their way home from a Temple football game at Lincoln Financial Field on Friday [10/21/2016].

Crazed teens viciously attack college kids for no apparent reason.  A slew of vicious, "flash mob"-style attacks at Temple University left at least six students beaten and bloodied over the weekend, along with a cop and a police horse.  More than 150 teens, spread out in groups of 20 or 30, descended upon the campus at around 8:30 p.m.  Friday — wreaking havoc for nearly two hours before eventually dispersing, according to NBC 10.  Temple spokesman Ray Betzner told the television station that the mob had been playing a "cat-and-mouse game" with officers throughout the night as they assaulted people who were walking around campus.

The Editor says...
Any time you see a news report about "teens" involved in violent crime against strangers in the street, you can safely assume that the perpetrators are black and the victims are white.  Any time you see a news report that says blacks attack whites "for no apparent reason," you can safely assume that the attacks were racially motivated and the newspaper is afraid to say so.

Three badly beaten by a group of 30-40 black teenagers on their way home from the Temple football game.  Did you know a black mob beat college students on Saturday night in Philadelphia?  Weird how we're not reading about this until three days later.

Friday violence as teen mob attacks Temple students, police; four arrested.  Four juveniles have been arrested in a series of violent incidents Friday night [10/21/2016] near Temple University's main campus in North Philadelphia.  According to Temple security, a group of over 150 juveniles coordinated a "meet up" on Instagram, amassing on Broad Street near the campus at approximately 8 p.m.  Four youths, ranging in ages between 14 and 17, were arrested in connection with wide-ranging attacks on Temple students, others in the crowd, and two Temple police officers that seemed to mimic the "flash mobs" that hit Center City in recent years.

As civil society crumbles, flash mob loots Apple store.  Make no mistake:  we are sliding toward something like a third-world urban reality, with street violence frequent and law enforcement unwilling or unable to do much about it.  In certain Latin American, Asian, and African cities, stores containing valuables have bars, locked entrances, and armed guards.  Those with enough money hire armed guards and lie behind walls with barbed wire at the top.  There are powerful forces attacking the legitimacy of the civil order of the United States.  Black Lives Matter is merely the newest visible component of the effort, but efforts are underway to release into the population violent criminals (because "mass incarceration"), to dispute the legitimacy of criminal convictions based on the group rights theory of "disparate impact," to shackle police tactics, to incite mob violence against police, and to devastate morale and hamper recruitment.

Teens Steal Over $13K In iPhones From Natick Apple Store In 'Flash Mob' Robbery.  A group of thieves stole over $13,000 in iPhones from the Apple store in the Natick Mall in a "flash mob" robbery.  Natick Police Lt. Cara Rossi said a group of seven teens were only in the store for less than one minute, but were able to steal 19 phones.

Mob of 40 people attack a California Highway Patrol cruiser with a white officer inside after he tried.  Footage has emerged of a mob attacking a California Highway Patrol cruiser while the officer was trying to shut down an illegal sideshow at the weekend.  The incident occurred at the intersection of North and Orange Avenues in Southwest Fresno on Sunday afternoon [9/25/2016] around 3.40 pm.  Police say a group of about 40 people blocked traffic by putting on a sideshow that involved reckless driving and cars doing burnouts.

Rioting:  The Unbeatable High.  It's fun watching the pundits on CNN try to intellectualize the riots in Charlotte.  They bounce stats around and wonder aloud if the protesters are more angry about 19th-century lynchings or 20th-century segregation.  They keep talking about bus seats and Alabama like anyone throwing a brick gives a shit.  We all know Keith Scott was not reading a book, just as we know these rioters don't read books.  Do you expect an apology when we find out the cop was justified?  Of course not.  Nobody on TV seems prepared to face the truth, which is, these stupid kids are rioting because it's really, really, really fun.  That's it.  The same was true of the Rodney King riots and the riots in Ferguson.  All vandals need is a semblance of a meme for justification and they're good to go.  To pretend it's anything more than that is to tell your rapist you're a Malcolm X scholar in hopes that he'll stop.

Charlotte riots, Tulsa doesn't.  Charlotte is the latest Ferguson.  The facts of the event, still unknown, do not matter.  It does not matter that since Obama took office, over three thousand African-Americans have been killed in Chicago by other African-Americans.  No one outside their immediate family and friends knows their names.  Obama does not speak out about their murders or the fact that Illinois's strict gun laws have done nothing to reduce the number of shootings in Chicago.  So, curiously, Charlotte is the scene of riots, looting, and more violence like Ferguson, Baltimore, and Dallas.  Many of the protesters are being bussed in and paid, quite possibly with dollars donated by George Soros.  He was behind the paid protesters in Ferguson and is most likely behind the chaos in Charlotte.  Last night [9/23/2016], seventy percent of the people arrested were not from North Carolina.

North Carolina Mob Attack Female Truck Driver — Police Refuse to Help.  Following an officer involved shooting in Charlotte North Carolina yesterday [9/20/2016] a mob of angry protestors assembled.  Immediately the protesting mob began attacking police officers and vehicles.  The mob clashed with police and riot squads were called, tear gas deployed.  The mob grew into approximately a thousand people who then moved collectively onto interstate 85 and blocked traffic.  Several vehicles were caught by the mob included numerous tractor trailers.

Protests break out across North Carolina injuring 12 police officers after cops shot dead a 'disabled' black father-of-seven.  Keith Lamont Scott, 43, was shot by a Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer at The Village at College Downs in Charlotte at about 4pm on Tuesday [9/20/2016].  The police department issued a statement saying the officers fired their weapons after considering Scott a threat.  But Scott's brother and sister said he didn't have a gun and was reading a book in his car while waiting for his son to be dropped off from school, WSOC reported.  On Tuesday night, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department tweeted that demonstrators were destroying marked police vehicles and that approximately 12 officers had been injured, including one who was hit in the face with a rock.

Protests erupt after fatal shooting by police; 12 officers injured.  All lanes of Interstate 85 were reopened early Wednesday [9/21/2016] but still littered with some rocks and glass after a night of protests over an officer-involved shooting of an African-American man in the University City area.  The officer was also African-American.  Twelve police officers were injured Tuesday night in a series of clashes, and reports were coming in early Wednesday of motorists on Interstate 85 being hurt and their vehicles damaged when protestors threw rocks, bottles and traffic cones off interstate overpasses onto traffic below.  At least seven of the police officers needed to be hospitalized after the clashes, including one who was hit in the face with a rock.

Disturbances at Mall of America lead to 10 arrests.  Witnesses at the state's largest shopping and entertainment complex described the scene that unfolded Monday evening [9/12/2016] as "chaotic" with people running and chanting.  A series of disturbance calls over the course of several hours Monday evening at the Mall of America led to 10 arrests, Bloomington police said.  Skirmishes broke out in the third-floor food court area after 6 p.m. and officers made the arrests for alleged offenses ranging from disorderly conduct, obstruction of the legal process and providing false information to police.

New video shows mob of Yale students encircling professor and angrily demanding an apology after he told them to 'just look away' if they were offended by racist Halloween costumes.  New videos have surfaced of a Yale professor being protested and yelled at by students for sending an email telling them to ignore people dressed in offensive or racist Halloween costumes last year.  The fallout of the email saw Nicholas Christakis, the master of Silliman College at Yale, and his wife Erika, a faculty member, resign from their positions at the university.  The new videos, which appeared on The Federalist, give a greater insight into what the students were demanding from Christakis, and his defense that cultural appropriation on Halloween is permissible.

Forget Milwaukee:  Cedar Rapids Had Much Better Black Mob Violence and Denial.  People outside of Milwaukee may be a bit surprised that last week hundreds of black people burned down businesses, threw bricks at cops, attacked white people, and created an enormous amount of mayhem.  All because police killed a member of that city's black criminal elite after he pointed a stolen gun at them.  The New York Times certainly was — it even dug up a few locals to say so.  But on the porches of Milwaukee, the home town crowd remember how hundreds of black people rampaged through a recent state fair, attacking white people in and outside of the fairgrounds — with all the bloody carnage captured on 911 calls.

Bike trails becoming a center of black on white mob violence.  Urban bike and jogging paths are becoming synopsis with black on white mob attacks and media censorship.  Groups of young blacks look for vulnerable whites to brutally beat up.  Little, if anything, of value is stolen.  Racial hatred seems to be the primary motive in most of these attacks.  The race of the attackers are often aggressively censored by the media.  The attacks are blamed on "a lack of lights" or a "lack of security."

Charleston's impromptu street protest sparked tense police response.  "They're throwing bricks!"  An officer barked the warning into his radio as an object bounced off an officer's vest and hit him in the face Wednesday night [7/13/2016].  The officer was part of a group who stood at Broad and King streets, trying to keep a throng of protesters marching in the middle of the streets away from the shops and bars a little farther north on King Street.  About 100 protesters broke off from a rally against police shootings in Marion Square to take their complaints to the streets.  They marched south past the Market to The Battery, then turned around and marched north on King Street, chanting all the while and challenging police orders to get on the sidewalk.

Police: 65 arrested after blocking Baltimore expressway during protest.  Sixty-five people were arrested on Saturday [7/16/2016] after participants in a march against police brutality blocked Interstate 83 just north of downtown Baltimore.  The arrests created a chaotic scene around Penn Station, where thousands milled around for the annual Baltimore Artscape festival.  The march, which was named and tagged on social media as "Afromation," began at Guilford Avenue and Chase Street, moved through Artscape on Charles Street, then to St. Paul Street and past Penn Station to the I-83 onramp, which was closed for the festival.

21 Officers Injured as St. Paul Freeway Protest Turns Violent.  Twenty-one officers from various Minnesota law enforcement agencies were injured and more than 102 protestors were arrested as a demonstration on the I-94 freeway in St. Paul turned violent Saturday night [7/9/2016], with protestors hurling rocks, bottles, fireworks and bricks at law enforcement officers on the scene.  Hundreds of demonstrators began protesting at the Governor's Residence in St. Paul Saturday night over the police-involved shooting death of Philando Castile earlier in the week before heading onto the I-94 freeway around 8 p.m., local Fox affiliate KMSP reported.

Government Street in Baton Rouge closed due to protests.  What started as a peaceful march in downtown [7/10/2016] ended with tense moments between police and protesters.  Officials say 48 people were arrested during the unplanned demonstration.  A portion of Government Street in downtown Baton Rouge remains closed after a group held an "unlawful protest" following a peace march that was held at the Louisiana State Capitol.  Police believe the secondary protest was initiated by out-of-state groups.

Oakland Authorities, Business Owners Worry About More Protests.  The city of Oakland was cleaning up Friday[7/8/2016] after a night of disruptive protests as officials and business owners expressed concerns over more unrest to come.  Thousands turned out Thursday night to stand against two deadly police shootings in Louisiana and Minnesota this week.  A crowd estimated at around 2,000 people gathered in downtown Oakland to protest the recent police shootings, marching through the streets, taking over Frank Ogawa Plaza and gathering outside of the Oakland Police Department on Broadway.  Someone painted the word "murderers" on the door of Oakland police headquarters.

Black Lives Matter protesters sprayed with tear gas in Phoenix as rally spirals out of control.  Black Lives Matter protesters have been sprayed with tear gas in Phoenix after a march against police brutality spiraled out of control.  Police also fired bean bag rounds and pepper spray at the protesters, who were seen running away and shielding their eyes.  One image showed a white man holding a Donald Trump 'Make America Great Again' placard interrupting the protest on Friday night.  Less than three hours after the demonstration began at 8pm, police declared the protest an 'unlawful assembly' and ordered people to leave after objects were thrown at officers, the Arizona Republic reported.  In Rochester, New York, the SWAT team arrived and police arrested 74 protesters who were blocking the streets.

Saturday protesters: 'Disrupt,' 'shut down' outside 24th, 25th Police Districts.  Activists started their march Saturday evening [7/9/2016] from the Fairhill section of North Philadelphia toward the 24th and 25th Police Districts, where they planned to "disrupt" and "shut down" police activity and area traffic as part of a "weekend of rage" against fatal police shootings nationwide of young black men, one of the protest leaders said.

This Wal-Mart brawl is unbelievable.  Gates [NY] Police Chief Jim VanBrederode says the fight started around 7 p.m.  Sunday [7/3/2016] after two 17-year-olds made fun of a dress worn by a 24-year-old woman.  [Video clip]

No, the riot is not "unbelievable."  I suspect incidents of this sort take place more frequently than any of us know.

Kanye causes chaos in New York:  Thousands mob streets for star's 'secret' gig prompting NYPD shutdown and near riot.  Chaos erupted outside Kanye West's secret concert in New York City early Monday morning [6/6/2016] after thousands of desperate fans descended on the venue — forcing officials to cancel the event and requiring dozens of police officers to disperse the crowd.  Kanye was heard asking for Mayor Bill de Blasio to shut down the block in a Snapchat video taken by wife Kim Kardashian early Monday morning after some people were trampled in a stampede outside the gig.

9 face murder charges in recorded after-school brawl in Georgia.  It started out as a fistfight.  Two girls — emboldened by bystanders alternately yelling out support or derision — went toe-to-toe in the residential street before they tumbled to the ground.  It only got uglier from there.  A two-minute cell phone video shot by a witness last week in Hephzibah, Georgia, captures the chaos as others join the fray, some wielding bats or pipes, others their fists.  The driver of a black car targets two young men, narrowly misses them, and backs up on the subdivision lawn, striking another vehicle.  In the end, an 18-year-old boy was mortally wounded.

The Editor says...
Notice that the bystanders all have cell phones with internal video cameras, and every gang fight is televised on the internet.  Not to identify the suspects, of course, but to generate internet fame for the photographers.  The lower class is preoccupied and driven by celebrity and fame.

Will Thuggish Hip-hop Culture Destroy Austin's SXSW?  It is Austin's most important and coolest festival:  South by Southwest.  But after two gun-related incidents at this year's SXSW, both involving volatile hip-hop crowds on March 18 and 20, the festival's organizers and Austin's liberal political leaders must be in a panic — wondering how to get rid of all the thuggish hip-hop shows while maintaining their high-minded values of political correctness.  The mayhem at SXSW's music week together with other hip-hop thuggishness over the years — including the deaths of four festival[-]goers three years ago caused by a black rapper who was eluding police in a stolen car — has stirred public outrage.  The talk on social media and in online posts in recent days has veered into the politically incorrect, with many slamming hip-hop's thuggish culture.

Spring Breakers Cause Chaos On South Beach.  The crowd became so big and out of control so quickly that Miami Beach police had to call in more units working other areas of the beach as well as units from Miami police.  "At first everything was under control," Miami native Jovannae Sweeting told Reporter Donna Rapado.  "But then I guess when people tried to fight police, of course when the police were attacked other police tried to help them.  It was crazy."  Video even captured people even standing on top of cars.

Mayhem over new Air Jordans shuts down Eastland Center.  A little pink sneaker created a big ruckus this morning [3/5/2016] at Eastland Center mall in Harper Woods.  At 8 a.m., when the doors opened at the Kids Foot Locker for the highly anticipated release of the Girls' Air Jordan 12 Retro Vivid Pink shoe, crowds rushed the gate, broke a lock, shoved and hollered.  Police immediately shut the mall down.  At 10 a.m., the store tried to open again and the same thing happened, according to William McClure, the general manager at Eastland Center.

Fox News blamed for stoking 'racism' in city's spring break crackdown.  The actual bacchanalia is still to come, but the underside of spring break in this party mecca has produced heated council meetings, attempts at a crackdown and court proceedings on whether Fox News is to blame for the town's purportedly racist crackdown.  Laws limiting alcohol consumption and scooter rentals have divided businesses and residents of this rural county which, for the past 20 years, has been transformed by hundreds of thousands of young visitors who spend tens of millions of dollars in a raucous six weeks.

Police: Gun owner saved cop from attack by kids.  Police are crediting a vigilant gun owner with saving the life of an Upper Darby cop Friday [2/12/2016] after he saw the officer being attacked and surrounded by a large group of teens.  "There were 40 kids.  If it wasn't for the good Samaritan stepping forward, he'd have been dead meat," Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said.  "There's no doubt they would have attacked him."

No Justice, No Football.  For me, the big question isn't which team wins in that football thing this weekend. The real big question is whether local anarchists and malcontents will try to shut down any big-name bridges, freeways or otherwise jam up the Bay Area's Super Bowl festivities.

Lawbreaking Bikers Promote Anti-Second Amendment Message.  People all along the East Coast are increasingly being subjected to a low level of lawless intimidation with massive traffic intimidation by a subculture of outlaw bikers.  This is a separate subculture that revels in their ability to escape police and to break traffic laws with impunity. [...] Most are unlicensed dirt bikes and ATVs.  The riders have learned to break the law with impunity, especially in large, semi-organized groups.  The bikes give them the ability to go places where police cars or even conventional police motorcycles cannot go, and police organizations have been under pressure not to chase the law breakers for fear of causing accidents.  In many areas the police have given up on enforcing the law, and have broadcast their intentions to the public.  This serves to empower and reinforce the attitudes of the outlaws.

ATV, motorcycle riders take over streets in Miami-Dade, Broward counties.  Motorcyclists and ATV riders took over the streets of Miami-Dade and Broward counties, ignoring traffic lights, driving the wrong way down city streets and speeding on sidewalks on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.  At least 150 riders started in Miami-Dade County about 3:30 p.m., moving north into Broward County on Interstate 95.  Riders went as far north as Pompano Beach before turning back south as night fell.  Although it's illegal to drive an ATV or an unauthorized motorcycle on roads in both counties, officials said they did not chase the riders or pull them over because it was too dangerous.

Bay Bridge reopening after protesters chain themselves, shut down span.  California Highway Patrol officers arrested 25 demonstrators after the group used the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday Monday [1/18/2016] to chain themselves and their vehicles across all five westbound lanes of the Bay Bridge, bringing traffic to a standstill as they demanded racial equity.  The activists froze traffic for about 30 minutes before they were arrested on suspicion of public nuisance, unlawful assembly and obstructing free passage, CHP Officer Vu Williams said.

Mob of 50 Black Teens Storm Georgia Walmart, Destroy and Steal Store.  Do you think the Old Media establishment will report this story of a mob of 50 black teenagers swarming a Walmart in Georgia and destroying the place? [...] But imagine if it was a mob of 50 white kids doing this?

Teens terrorize holiday shoppers.  The entitlement generation is on the rampage — turning many of our nation's shopping centers into war zones.  Over the long holiday weekend, mobs of unsupervised teenagers terrorized shoppers and department stores across the fruited plain.  As many as 2,000 teenagers rioted Saturday night at the Mall St. Matthews in suburban Louisville, Kentucky.  Officer Dennis McDonald, a spokesperson for the St. Matthews Police Department, told USA Today that most of the offenders had been dropped off at the mall or had arrived by public transportation.

Fight breaks out at Newark anti-violence rally.  A skirmish broke out between rival activists on the steps of City Hall Wednesday [12/31/2015] during what had been intended as a demonstration against violence in Newark.  Police were called to the scene after a small crowd began arguing over escalating violence and the city's attempts to curb it.  The noon press conference was called by a group of activists led by Salaam Ismial, co-chair of the New Jersey Study Commission on Violence, and Abdul Muhammad, a longtime Newark anti-violence activist.

Two arrests as Black Lives Matter, other groups protest during Mummers Parade.  Philadelphia Police arrested a man and woman who they say briefly disrupted the annual New Year's Day Mummers Parade in Center City Philadelphia. [...] A 45-year-old man was charged with disorderly conduct.  A 34-year-old woman was charged with disrupting a procession.  Both were among a group of about 50 demonstrators who staged a protest during the annual Mummers Parade.

Police violence protesters 'crash' brunch at North Side restaurants.  Several protesters took to popular North Side brunch restaurants on New Year's Day to chant and raise awareness of police violence in Chicago.  The protesters, including members of Black Lives Matter Chicago, the Black Youth Project, and Assata's Daughters, went into restaurants Kanela Breakfast Club and Dove's Luncheonette in Wicker Park and chanted "While you are here celebrating over brunch, black families are struggling to keep themselves safe from CPD."

Kentucky's Mall St. Matthews Shuts Down After Brawls Involving Up to 2,000.  The officers on duty at the mall called for backup, and 50 officers from five different agencies responded, according to police.  "It was a series of brawls" involving 1,000 to 2,000 people ages 13 to their early 20s, McDonald said, adding that "the entire mall" was affected.  About 8 p.m., authorities started to advise stores in the mall to close their doors, but those involved in the brawls were refusing to leave.  "Businesses were in the process of closing their doors, steel grates, and you had juveniles that were not allowing businesses to close up — [they were] climbing on the grates," McDonald said.

More than 500 people swept up in chaotic flash mob at Deptford Mall.  Several law enforcement agencies are investigating after a "large disturbance" involving more than 500 people broke out Saturday night [12/26/2015] at the Deptford Mall.  Officials from Gloucester and Camden counties arrived at the scene of what appears to have been a flash mob that took place at the Sears department store on the mall's second floor, according to NJ.com.  Police stopped short of calling the disturbance a "fight," confirming there were no reports of assaults or injuries.

America's Newest Christmas Tradition: Black Mob Violence at Malls.  In the days before, during, and after Christmas, 15 malls reported large-scale episodes of rioting, shooting, looting, rampaging, fighting, throwing rocks at police, damaging cars and more.  Two black people died.

Mall Mayhem: Over 1,000 Teens Shut Down Kentucky Mall.  A mall in Louisville, Kentucky, reopened this morning after over 1,000 teens loitering, fighting and refusing to leave businesses forced the shopping center to shut down Saturday night [12/26/2015], police said.  Around 7 p.m., police started to receive disturbance calls from the Mall St. Mathews regarding "juveniles who were loitering, refusing to leave businesses, fights, those kinds of things," St. Matthews Police spokesman Dennis McDonald told ABC News today.

500 people involved in large disruption at Deptford Mall.  Confusion broke out at the Deptford Mall Saturday night after a "large disturbance" involving more than 500 people erupted near the food court.  Multiple law enforcement agencies from both Gloucester and Camden counties were called to the mall, located on Deptford Center Road.  Videos posted on social media show droves of people dispersing near the Sears store on the second level.

Media fails to identify the race of 1,000 to 2,000 Black teens that shut down Kentucky mall.  The teenagers involved in this incident were Black, but media reports, including Fox News, omit the fact from their reports.  Notice how CBS just calls them "unruly".  Why?  It's obvious.  The media works from templates to fit their agenda.  Minorities behaving badly will always be unreported as much as possible.  But, had a White Cop shot one of these criminal Black teens, then the races of all involved would be indentified.

Kentucky's Mall St. Matthews Shuts Down After Brawls Involving Up to 2,000.  Chain-reaction brawls involving up to 2,000 people erupted in one of Kentucky's largest malls Saturday night, forcing the entire mall and businesses in the surrounding area to shut down, police said. [...] The officers on duty at the mall called for backup, and 50 officers from five different agencies responded, according to police.  "It was a series of brawls" involving 1,000 to 2,000 people ages 13 to their early 20s, McDonald said, adding that "the entire mall" was affected.

Shakedown:
Riot ideology: Results through coercion.  In the summer of 1966, Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach warned that there would be riots by angry, poor minority residents in "30 or 40" American cities if Congress didn't pass President Lyndon Johnson's Model Cities antipoverty legislation.  In the late 1960s, New York Mayor John Lindsay used the fear of such rioting to expand welfare rolls dramatically at a time when the black male unemployment rate was about 4 percent.  And in the 1980s, Washington, D.C., Mayor Marion Barry articulated an explicitly racial version of collective bargaining — a threat that, without ample federal funds, urban activists would unleash wave after wave of racial violence.  "I know for a fact," Barry explained, "that white people get scared of the [Black] Panthers, and they might give money to somebody a little more moderate."

A Mob's Maul Of America.  Presumably the purpose of a protest is to attract attention to one's cause.  That police shootings have led the news and are at the top of the White House's agenda isn't quite good enough for Black Lives Matter, because the loose social-media collective wants more than attention.  It wants destruction.  Its latest protest at the Mall of America is explicitly intended to create economic losses as a means of shaking out concessions from "the establishment."

1 of 8 Arrested in Minnesota Airport Protest Remains Jailed.  One of eight people arrested during a flash protest that briefly tangled holiday travel at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport remained in jail Thursday [12/24/2015], with the others facing orders to appear in court later.

Hundreds of Black Lives Matter storm Minneapolis Airport and cause travel chaos as riot police are deployed to terminals.  Thirty people have been arrested after hundreds of Black Lives Matter protesters disrupted holiday travel and shopping in several states Wednesday with protests blocking access roads to airports and shutting down the Mall of America in Minneapolis.  Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport Police are out in full force today to ensure smooth Christmas Eve travel a day after the demonstrations led to disruptions.  Airport spokesman Patrick Hogan said Thursday [12/24/2015] that there's no reason to believe there will be a repeat of protests that led to traffic backups and security checkpoint shutdowns at a secondary terminal Wednesday.

Black Lives Matter protest snarls Minneapolis airport.  Several hundred Black Lives Matter activists shut down at least one terminal at the Minneapolis-St.Paul International airport Wednesday for about two hours in an afternoon of protest that began miles away at the huge Mall of America.  A total of 15 people were arrested at both sites, mostly for trespassing or obstruction of justice, police said.  No injuries or property damage were reported.  The protesters not only disrupted rail traffic to the terminals, they blocked the freeway in front of the airport, snarling holiday traffic on one of the busiest travel days of the year.

New at the mall: Fierce black-mob attacks.  A mall in Ocoee, Florida, has been forced to impose a curfew after as many as 900 black teenagers, mostly girls, stormed a theater inside the mall so they could see the sexual bondage-themed film, "Fifty Shades of Grey," on Valentine's Day.  According to WKMG-TV in Florida, hundreds of middle- and high-school students rushed the AMC Theater at the West Oaks Mall after not being allowed into the R-rated movie.  Some reports indicate the riot was organized on social media weeks in advance.

Black Lives Matter Protester Says Disrupting Christmas Travel Is 'A Good Idea'.  Black Lives Matter organizer Asha Long says that disrupting air travel is not a bad thing:  "I think it's important for that we realize people who are upset about missing their air, their flight, that many black lives are disrupted every day."  Appearing on "CNN Newsroom" with Carol Costello on Thursday [12/24/2015], Long was unable to provide statistics to back up her claims arguing, "I do not have statistics but I do have lived experience which is just as valid."

Flash mob hits designer store in Georgetown, steals $13,000 in goods.  A large group of juveniles robbed a clothing store in Georgetown on Tuesday evening and stole $13,000 worth of items, according to D.C. police.  The incident happened just before 6 p.m. at the Diesel store in the 3000 block of M Street NW.  More than 20 people went into the store and grabbed several items off the racks, police said.  They stole four leather jackets, costing about $800, and an additional $12,000 worth of merchandise.

Cops Fired For Telling the Truth about Black Violence.  The first hero is Lori Lavorato, the former spokeswoman for the police in Des Moines, Iowa.  A few years ago, at the Iowa State Fair, large groups of black people created havoc and violence in and out of the fair for three nights.  In their wake, they left a fractured skull, dozens of black on white assaults, property destruction, defiance, and two hospitalized cops.  All at, yes, the Iowa State Fair.  When reporters wanted to know why all the black people were violently attacking white people, Lavorato told it the way it was:  "In the police report it states that a group of black males and females were out at the fair yelling 'it's beat whitey night'.  The police chief said truth was not the "messaging" she wanted.  So Lavorato had to go.

Thousands Of Black Teens Fighting, Rioting And Looting In Malls Across America Christmas Weekend.  These acts of disorder and violence by young blacks appear to be coordinated.  Why is the media not reporting on these incidents and why are they not even trying to discover who is behind these coordinated acts of violence across America?  If these were Tea Party members, do you think the media would only refer to them as "crowds of people?"

Black Lives Matter Protesters Rush LA Mayor's Podium at Town Hall.  Los Angeles Mayor Mayor Eric Garcetti was escorted out of a church and taken to his car after Black Lives Matter protesters overtook the town hall meeting.  According to KNBC-TV, Black Lives Matter protesters rushed the podium at the town hall event, which was being held to discuss economic opportunity and community safety.  As Garcetti attempted to leave the meeting, protesters surrounded his car and continued to chant.

America is due for a revolution.  Here's the good news:  The chaos and upheaval we see all around us have historical precedents and yet America survived.  The bad news:  Everything likely will get worse before it gets better again.  That's my chief takeaway from "Shattered Consensus," a meticulously argued analysis of the growing disorder.  Author James Piereson persuasively makes the case there is an inevitable "revolution" coming because our politics, culture, education, economics and even philanthropy are so polarized that the country can no longer resolve its differences.

Video reveals America is either greatest country in the history of the world, or the low point of human civilization.  I have been struggling for several days now, trying to wrap my mind around the video embedded [in this article].  It was recorded on a cruise ship, the Carnival Breeze, as a fight broke out among passengers waiting for cheeseburgers at Guy's Burger Joint, an outlet jointly owned by Guy Fieri of the Food Network and the Carnival Cruise Line.

Rumble in VA! Trump Supporters Brawl with #BlackLivesMatter and Latino Radicals.  It was only a matter of time before this happened.  Look for it to get much worse.  Politico makes a big deal out of a Trump supporter spitting on and cursing at a Black Lives Matter jerk.  First off, there is no context.  What did the radical say and do before that happened?  Second, I'm not sure you can blame the guy.  He's obviously had it with these racist, commie thugs.  I know I have.  The crowd raged over this.  I'm surprised there wasn't a bigger brawl.  Guess the state police got there in time and hauled away the disrupters.  Black Lives Matter thugs and Latino radicals crashed the Trump rally in Richmond, Virginia and this time people fought back.  There were 5,000 people there and they were ticked.

Black Violence Matters.  [Example #1]  Harrisburg.  100 black people leave a local festival, ransack a convenience store, and vandalize more than 50 cars, including one belonging to the chief of police.  The mayor said the large scale violence is "isolated" and caused by poverty.  The chief of said he is going to stop the repeated and large-scale lawlessness by "preaching" to the kids.  Two days after the riot, we learned another mob assaulted two white kids coming from the festival, breaking at least one jaw.  The local press finally had to 'fess up':  "The beatdown also had a "racial overtone," to it, said the chief of police.  He said the attackers, who were black, yelled racial comments at the white victims, who had been "minding their own business."

Putney: Gangs at the center of Charlotte weekend violence.  Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Chief Kerr Putney said retaliatory shootings between at least two gangs were at the root of many of the violent crimes over the Labor Day weekend.  Police are treating all of the shootings as if they are connected. Putney wouldn't identify the gangs involved and gave no updates on any possible arrests in any of the five killings over the weekend.  Twelve people were shot at six locations over the holiday weekend.  So far in Mecklenburg County, there have been 43 homicides in 2015, more than for all of the year before.

MPD officer confronted by crowd, punched, police say.  A Madison police officer was confronted by a crowd and punched after a street fight on Prairie Road Wednesday night [9/2/2015], according to a release from Madison police.  The officer stopped in the area of Prairie Road and Jacobs Way around 6:20 p.m. after spotting a large number of people in the street.  He said that as he approached he saw a woman punch a man in the face, and he could see that the woman had a can of pepper spray.  The officer said that as he went to arrest the woman he was surrounded by a crowd that was voicing anti-police sentiments, including "We need to start killing these officers."

Wisconsin Mob: 'We Need to Start Killing These Officers'; Punched Police Officer.  Two women in Madison, Wisconsin were arrested Wednesday night after punching and threatening to kill a police officer who was responding to a 911 call about a nearby street brawl.  Within minutes of arriving on the scene, police said the officer attempted to arrest a woman he saw punch a man in the face but was quickly overwhelmed by a mob of people chanting anti-police slurs, including "We need to start killing these officers."

School protests hijack Chicago mayor's budget forum.  Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel held a rare public forum on Monday [8/31/2015], seeking support for painful belt tightening to solve the city's fiscal crisis, at a meeting dominated by protests over the closing of a high school in an African-American neighborhood.

Black Lives Matter Activists, Including Nancy Pelosi Staffer, Shut Down D.C. Highway During Protest.  Lives Matter activists, including Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's press assistant, reportedly shut down a Washington, D.C., interstate highway Saturday afternoon [8/15/2015].  Taylor Griffin, who according to her LinkedIn profile is a press assistant in the Democratic congresswoman's office, tweeted photos and videos of herself and other activists marching and carrying signs.  Griffin also tweeted an images of her with the group apparently shutting down I-395, a heavily traveled freeway in D.C.

Please Tell Black Lives Matter to Shut Up and Go Away!  [Scroll down]  Black Lives Matter thugs are allowed to roam the country wreaking havoc.  At a major speaking event, liberal Democrat presidential candidate Bernie Sanders allowed BLM thugs to storm the stage, take his microphone and run him off his own stage.  How wimpy is that?  Democrat presidential contender Martin O'Malley also allowed BLM thugs to hijack his event.  O'Malley wimped out and pandered to the rude thugs.  O'Malley's attempt at appeasement emboldened the thugs to demand that he apologize for daring to say "white lives and all lives matter."  O'Malley complied.  Sanders and O'Malley displayed typical Democratic Party weakness and politically correct liberal thinking.

Bernie Sanders: Pathetic and Outdated.  Bernie Sanders, practicing the gutless leadership that he preaches, gave up his podium in Seattle to Black Lives Matter "activists."  He was spouting his neo-Marxist rhetoric about the class struggle (oops, "income inequality") when young BLM speakers pushed his old boring rhetoric aside, took over his microphone, and began a dumb-speak chant, "Black Lives Matter, Black Lives Matter, etc."  Bernie kept smiling and soon left the area giving up all attempts to control the podium.  If we look at the issues section of Bernie's website, we see he advocates a massive program to employ young people age 16-24.  The fiasco in Seattle leaves us wondering if he intends to employ those young people to disrupt the speeches of politicians of both the left and right.

Black Panther rally
Black Panthers March in Texas.  In Waller County, Texas the New Black Panther Party staged a demonstration to protest the suicide death of Sandra Bland while in jail.  A small group showed up to voice their displeasure with the Waller County Sheriff's Dept.  But, there was a twist to this demonstration as Breitbart reports: [...]


More about the Black Panthers.

Black lawmakers back disruptions of Sanders, Democrats' events.  In recent weeks, members of the Black Lives Matter movement have gone after the leading Democratic hopefuls — most notably during a viral weekend encounter with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) — urging them to prioritize criminal justice reform and other race-related issues on the campaign trail.  The activists have employed the controversial tactic of interrupting stump speeches and other public forums, which has drawn ire from many Democrats as an uncivil and misguided effort that targets allies, rather than opponents, of such reforms.

Bernie Sanders retreats before Black Lives Matter protestors.  While much of the political world obsessed about the latest developments in Donald Trump's takeover of the Republican presidential race, an extraordinary thing happened on the Democratic side.  In Seattle on Saturday [8/8/2015], the most liberal candidate in the Democratic contest, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was shouted down by Black Lives Matter protesters, who took the event at which he was scheduled to speak hostage.  It was an ugly moment; the anger and bad feelings onstage were intense, judging from several videos of the event.

Fifty Years after Watts.  Deep into the second term of our worst president, the man who was supposed to resolve racial problems in America, we can look back fifty years and see how little the dreary cant of leftism has changed.  On August 11, 1965, Watts exploded into an orgy of violence and destruction, resulting in 34 deaths and thousands of injuries.  Tens of millions of dollars of damage gutted much of Watts, and this destruction, combined with the lawlessness of the black rioters, drove business from that part of Los Angeles.

Five Arrests In Michigan Racial Mob Beating — Twenty Black Teens Brutalize White Victim.  Reverse the races and this would be playing 24/7 on CNN.  However, specifically because it does not fit the preferred media narrative, it's doubtful this story will reach a single national news broadcast.

Panic in Pittsburgh: Media Struggling to Ignore Black Mob Violence.  Large-scale black mob violence is now an accepted part of life in the Pittsburgh area.  The latest example came last week, when hundreds of black people rioted outside of a carnival at St. Basil's parish.  No one in the press called it a riot.  Neither did they identify the hundreds of people involved as black.  A few cops and residents took care of that in emails.  The parish cancelled the 40-year tradition permanently, for the "safety of its parishioners," said the pastor.  And oh yeah, black violence has been a fact of life in that neighborhood for a long time.  The local city councilmember said she is really, really sad about it, and had no idea why it happened, but she is pretty sure it was caused by not enough social programs.

Ohio Cops Hunt 70 Juveniles In Late Night "Mob And Rob" Of Circle K Store.  Ohio cops are investigating the ransacking of a Circle K store that was overrun early Saturday morning [7/25/2015] by up to 70 juveniles.  According to Akron police, the suspects "entered the gas station and started to destroy and steal property" during the so-called mob and rob attack.  As seen [in this article], a couple who stopped at the Circle K for gas shot video of the juveniles fleeing the store with stolen merchandise.  A woman in the car called 911 and reported that the suspects were "running around in the parking lot like wild children."

Three women caught on camera getting into massive brawl at Epcot with one attacking a park employee.  Disney World is supposed to be the happiest place on Earth... but apparently they don't make the same promises for Epcot.  [Video clip]

Black Lives Matter Founder Rants at Netroots: 'Burn Everything Down!'.  The nascent Black Lives Matter movement cannot claim that these statements were made by a few fringe members:  the entire rant was orchestrated by Black Lives Matter Founder Patrisee Cullors, who can be seen in the video enthusiastically pumping her fist and shouting along with every incendiary statement.  Nor is Black Lives Matter a fringe group; they have been embraced and given fealty by the highest levels of the Democratic power structure.

Newly Emerged Video Reveals The Real Agenda Of Radical 'Black Lives Matter'.  [Martin] O'Malley, the former Maryland governor, tried to appease members of the noisy and insistent disruptors.  But when he dared to tell the crowd that "all lives matter," he was caught in such a liberal bind that he quickly backed away from that statement and publicly apologized for his supposed insensitivity to the Blacks Lives Matter message. [...] As Breitbart notes of the profanity-laced disruption of the event:  "The shouted manifesto lays bare the theory behind the burning, looting, and rioting that have transpired in recent months in Baltimore and Ferguson, and it also lays out the group's agenda on current news events like immigration reform, transgender activism, and the fables about the death of convicted criminal Sandra Bland that the group is spreading through the media."

Disastrous Consequences of Lib Indoctrination from the 60s to Obama.  Due to black youths believing America is against them and cops routinely murder them, black mob attacks, rapes, and murders of innocent whites are on the rise.  Black looters feel entitled.  Social justice gives them the right to recoup what whitey/America stole from them.

Police Attacked by Black Mob in Cincinnati, Rescued White Man from Beatdown.  Did you see this on the news?  Because I sure didn't.  And even the news reports out there on this downplay or just plain don't mention the white man that was beaten and left in the street by a black mob of about 40.  You want a hate crime?  That's a hate crime.  According to one officer's account online, he was beaten simply because he was white.  You can bet Al Sharpton will not ride to the rescue on this one.

Video of black race rioters brutally beating white man at July 4 gathering taken down by YouTube.  According to a video posted to the Facebook account of QbabyOfTeamQ, a white man attending a July 4 concert in Fountain Square, the heart of downtown Cincinnati, was beaten bloody and unconscious.  Unfortunately, I am not able to embed the video because YouTube has taken it down, with a notice:  "This video has been taken down as a violation of YouTube's policy on shocking and disgusting content."

Cincinnati Mob Beats White Male Victim, "simply for being white", While Rioting In Fountain Square.  The details of a Cincinnati mob riot this weekend appear customarily poured through the MSM PC-filter, receiving editorial board cleanup prior to publication/broadcast.  However, social media accounts, as customary in an era where media are afraid to tell the truth, construct a more honest version of events.

Organized mob (of no particular race, according to media) ransacks a Walmart, attacks handicapped man in motorized cart.  The fragile bonds of civilization that keep society peaceful and orderly are fraying in the face of mobs organized online.  Last Sunday [6/28/2015], an organized mob of about four dozen people attacked a Walmart in Macon, Georgia, intentionally doing damage to displays and merchandise and dragging a man out of motorized cart and throwing him to the floor.

Report: Macon Wal-Mart mob wanted to see how much damage it could do.  Surveillance video of a wee-hours ruckus at a Macon Wal-Mart on Sunday shows a teenager race inside flashing gang signs ahead of a mob of four dozen or so people who burst in and smashed merchandise.  The commotion, which caused an estimated $2,000 in damage, appears to have been planned.  Some in the crowd also snatched a man, apparently a shopper at the Zebulon Road store, from a motorized shopping cart and dragged him to the floor, Bibb County sheriff's officials said Monday [6/29/2015].

Mob of 50 Black Teens Storm Georgia Walmart, Destroy and Steal Store.  Do you think the Old Media establishment will report this story of a mob of 50 black teenagers swarming a Walmart in Georgia and destroying the place?

Documentarian tells story of 1967 Newark riots, city's ongoing recovery.  In 1967, five straight days of rioting and civil unrest in the city left 26 dead and hundreds more injured.  In a new film that debuts in a private screening at Seton Hall University Saturday, filmmaker Kevin McLaughlin has dubbed it, "The Week that Changed the World."

Hot 97 DJ blames 'idiots' for SummerJam unrest.  Ebro, the host of "Ebro in the Morning" on Hot 97, blamed "a few idiots" for the clashes between crowds and state police Sunday at MetLife Stadium during the radio station's annual Summer Jam concert.  Crowds of people tried to enter the sold out concert by climbing over fences and forcing their way past security, state police said Sunday night.  Troopers shut the gates.  Concertgoers said police used tear gas to control the crowds.  Members of the crowd reportedly began throwing bottles at State Police.

Police: 61 arrested, 10 troopers injured at concert.  The melee [6/7/2015] at the Hot 97 Summer Jam in East Rutherford, New Jersey, drew a sharp rebuke Monday from hosts at WQHT-FM, but it also prompted questions from fans who had tickets but were ordered to leave. [...] New Jersey State Police in riot gear blocked gates outside the arena after officials said people tried to push their way inside or jump the fence.

Police shoot tear gas to disperse New Jersey concert crowd.  While tens of thousands of fans listened to some of the biggest names in hip-hop inside MetLife Stadium Sunday night [6/7/2015], hundreds trying to get in clashed with police in riot gear after the gates were closed, leaving 10 troopers hurt.

An Obama Crime Wave Spreads Across America.  Fueled by this president's anti-police policies and race-baiting rhetoric, thugs are attacking cops and terrorizing major cities.  Horrible violence is breaking out all over.  We are witnessing a national crime wave.  Law enforcement expects to see an escalation in criminal activity over the summer.

100 Beachgoers Brawl in Massachusetts.  More than 100 people brawled on a Massachusetts beach Sunday [5/10/2015] evening in a melee that saw bottles and rocks hurled, some at police, and at least 12 people arrested.

Bottles, Rocks Thrown in Beach Brawl.  State police said nine people — five female, four male — were charged with disorderly conduct.  One of the people arrested, Cornelius Jackson, 24, was arraigned Monday [5/11/2015] on charges of trespassing, resisting arrest, giving a false name and disorderly conduct.  While being arrested, he allegedly attempted to kick out the windows of the State Police cruiser.

The Inconvenient Truth about Ghetto Communities' Social Breakdown.  When the recorded fatal shooting of a fleeing man in South Carolina brought instant condemnation by whites and blacks alike, and by the most conservative as well as the most liberal commentators, that moment of mutual understanding was very fleeting, as if mutual understanding were something to be avoided, as a threat to a vision of "us against them" that was more popular.  That vision is nowhere more clearly expressed than in attempts to automatically depict whatever social problems exist in ghetto communities as being caused by the sins or negligence of whites, whether racism in general or a "legacy of slavery" in particular.  Like most emotionally powerful visions, it is seldom, if ever, subjected to the test of evidence.

Long Hot Summer Coming.  What we know so far:
  •   Valerie Jarrett is the coordinator of "demonstrations" in cities nationwide.  She is "on the phone" with mayors, radicals and activists.  NYC is the next big one and has already started.
  •   Every incident of a black person getting shot by police or roughed up resisting arrest is being examined by a Democrat team to see how useful it could be.  Media allies will be told which to go after and what messaged to include.
  •   They will occur in Democrat-run cities and the police will be hamstrung (stand down, fall back, don't look aggressive, etc....) to maximize vivid scenes of violence and destruction and make authorities look powerless.
  •   This is an IW [information warfare] campaign that will go on all summer and escalate in cities around the country.  The overarching memes will be economic injustice, judicial prejudice, income inequality, white racism and police brutality.  They are throwing the police and firefighter unions under the bus on this.
  •   The goal?  Set up another Dem messianic candidate and blame Republicans for the violence.  Party before country for Democrats, always.

Huge brawl in the aisles of Philadelphia Zara store caught on camera.  Philadelphia might mean the City of Brotherly Love in Greek, but the sentiment of the name apparently doesn't always doesn't apply to Philly's female residents.  At least five women got into a large-scale brawl that lasted for multiple minutes at a Zara clothing store on Friday afternoon [4/17/2015].

Panama City Gang Rape: A Kitty Genovese for the YouTube Era.  After phone footage of a girl being gang-raped in front of hundreds was discovered by cops, it has been revealed that a string of such incidents had taken place; on different days — maybe — and recorded on different phones.  Among the confusion, one thing remains a constant:  the profile of the victim.  Young, drugged, and only aware of the nightmare that had befallen her after videos of the attack wound up online.  That a trend of this nature has been allowed to proliferate is disturbing to the core.

Florida beach city may cancel Spring Break.  The tourism council in Bay County, Florida voted Tuesday [4/14/2015] to spend more money on spring break security after a month of violence in Panama City Beach — mostly fueled by alcohol.  Some people in town wonder if it's time to close the party down for good.  When partiers show up, the population grows 2,000 percent — from 12,000 full-time residents to a quarter-million, mostly college kids.

Hamilton Mall brawl in Mays Landing involved 30 people.  A fight involving 30 people — some teenagers and others adults — Saturday night [4/11/2015] at the Hamilton Mall in Mays Landing ended in the arrest of a 17-year-old who was charged with disorderly conduct for throwing chairs, police said.  Hamilton Township police said the fight was reported at 6:30 p.m. Saturday.  Hamilton Mall security officers asked for assistance dealing with a large fight involving approximately 30 people, according to a statement issued by police.

Huge 'gang' brawl involving Four Hundred people breaks out at Queens casino.  A four hundred-person mass brawl broke out Friday night [4/3/2015] at a casino in Queens.  Patrons at a bar opening inside the Resorts World Casino, next to JFK airport, reportedly turned on one another around 10pm.  Video of the fight sees a crowd of people erupting from a bar area, punching, kicking, shouting and re-purposing casino decorations as weapons.

Spring Break Violence is a Black College Thing.  [Scroll down]  The annual mayhem continued until 2013, when city officials ran out of ways to describe the "living hell" that 400,000 black people created in Miami Beach.  So they turned that small town into a large armed camp.  Today, lots of attendees complain how the cops, the towers, the dogs, the drones, the license plate scanners, the lights, the Homeland Security and the cameras are all killing their buzz.  And attendance is down.  [Bill] O'Reilly wrote off the Panama Beach City violence as some kind of new exhibitionism, all made possible by that new-fangled social media; ignoring the whole racial thing, i.e., they were not black rioters, they were just rioters who happened to be black.  But large-scale and persistent mob violence during Spring Break is a black thing.  Or as the t-shirts say:  A Black College Thing.

The Drought: California Apocalypto.  I think that we've come full circle in California:  from the premodern Wild West of the 19th century to a decadent postmodernism that is every bit as feral, though the roughness of ascension is always preferable to its counterpart in decline.  The day before Easter, Sacramento tried to stage the world's largest public Easter egg hunt.  From news reports it seems quickly to have devolved into a Darwinian free-for-all, where the ochlos swarmed the few who played by the rules.

Somali Muslims Swarm School, Force Lockdown After Somali Posts ISIS-Supportive Picture.  Over a hundred alien Somali Muslims, imported into the U.S., courtesy of non-discriminatory refugee policies, swarmed St. Cloud Technical High School on Friday [3/20/2015] in a rage.

Suspect Dead, Officer Wounded in Arizona Wal-Mart Brawl.  An overnight brawl in an Arizona Wal-Mart parking lot has left one person dead and two others wounded, including a police officer who was shot in the leg.

Forget The Terrorists: Malls are Already Under Attack from Black Mob Violence.  Forget ISIS and its threat to terrorize American malls.  Dozens of shopping areas are already under attack.  Since the Christmas season, at least 25 malls around the country have experienced black mob violence, many connected to movie theaters.  With much of the mayhem captured on video.  With many of the malls turning into No Go Zones because of the regular racial violence and the muted response to it.  Let's list these attacks, starting with the latest and working back. [...]

Hundreds of teenagers cause chaos outside of movie theater they couldn't get into.  Hundreds of teenagers caused chaos in central Florida, brawling each other after they could not get into a movie theater.  Police in Ocoee, west of Orlando, said that 300 high school and middle school students 'caused a disturbance' outside an AMC theater at the local mall on Saturday night.  After security guards kept most of them out, the crowd was moved to a parking lot where they began fighting each other and shots were fire into the air.

Massive Black Mob Causes Mayhem At Florida Mall — 800 to 900 Black Teens Involved.  This happened last night [2/14/2015] and both police and media are downplaying the story as "kids and teens just being kids"; as would be expected in the new normal reality.  Another report shares "just a bunch of stupid kids".  Obviously all media ignoring the racial aspect of the thugs gone wild.

Downtown Saint Paul Minnesota Besieged By Black Mob Violence — Media Hides Story.  Saint Paul Minnesota is a hotbed of racially driven black mob violence, but the media work diligently to keep it hidden.  Recently the frequency of the attacks has increased in severity and now even the local media are forced to discuss it.  However, the media avoid the racial motive inherent in all of the suspects being black and all of the victims are white.

Black Teen Girls Riot in Pittsburgh Mall, Force Closure.  In a brawl apparently instigated using social media, a thousand or more young teen black girls descended on Monroeville Mall outside Pittsburgh Friday night, resulting in the mall being closed as a massive brawl broke out.  An investigation is ongoing, including via social media, although no arrests were reportedly made at the time.  Many of the teens used their phones to capture video of the events and that too is now making the rounds via social media.

Scores of rowdy teens start mass brawl in a Pennsylvania mall forcing into lockdown.  Authorities say several fights broke out among hundreds of teens who packed a western Pennsylvania shopping center, forcing it to close early and it seems to be a trend cutting across malls in America.  Several altercations erupted on Friday evening [12/26/2014] at the Monroeville Mall.

Man killed in Oakwood Center shooting; sheriff describes 'bedlam in the mall'.  Oakwood Center mall near Gretna was packed this Christmas Eve afternoon, as throngs of shoppers — young and old — scurried about for last-minute holiday gifts.  But one man in that crowd stood outside the Foot Locker store inside the mall, Jefferson Parish authorities said, waiting for 24-year-old James Vaughn to finish his purchase.  And when Vaughn did, police say, that man walked up to him and shot him to death.

Black Mob Violence at Christmas, All Over the Country.  Let's start in a small town near Houston called Texas City, where hundreds of black people decided to celebrate Christmas Night at a party promoting "Hood Night.'  Near midnight, one of the patrons found himself in the parking lot, shooting a handgun.  When police arrived, he was shooting toward the crowd and ignored orders to drop the weapon.  That is when Hood Night got real:  The man with the gun turned towards police and they shot him dead.

NYPD announces $12,000 reward for three women and four men who attacked cops on Brooklyn Bridge during protests.  The New York's Police Commissioner has offered a $12,000 reward for the arrest and conviction of seven people who attacked two lieutenants on the Brooklyn Bridge. [...] The incident began when the two officers arrested a City University of New York professor, Eric Linsker, 29, as he tried to pour a rubbish bin onto other cops from a pedestrian overpass.  They were punched and kicked in the heads, leaving them needing instant medical attention.  Ironically, the officers were from the department's Legal Bureau and were only present at the protest to ensure that demonstrators' civil rights were respected by police.

Al Sharpton Leads March in DC as NYC Protesters Chant: 'What Do We Want? Dead Cops!'  Joining the families of blacks killed by police, thousands marched toward the capitol and down New York streets on Saturday [12/13/2014] to protest what they called an epidemic of abuse at the hands of police.  But even though it was his event, many attendees didn't want to hear from organizer Al Sharpton.

The Editor says...
The news coverage of these incidents is especially disturbing when it becomes apparent that the so-called "journalists" are intentionally omitting any mention of the perpetrators' race or their racial motives.   If the newspapers refer to these criminals as "troubled inner-city youths" or "at-risk teens" or some such euphemism, it doesn't make the public better informed.  There is no point in publishing a newspaper if you're afraid to state the obvious, and the obvious is this:  The teens are not the ones who are most at risk.

Police contain unruly Air Jordan shoppers at Houston-area malls.  Police were called to quell unruly crowds after hundreds converged outside several Houston-area malls early Sunday morning [12/14/2014] in hopes of getting a ticket to buy pricey Nike Air Jordan sneakers being released next weekend.  Chaos reached a crescendo when a rock shattered a glass entrance door at the Willowbrook Mall and a teenage girl was zapped with a Taser outside The Woodlands Mall.

Black Minister: Ferguson Rioters 'Disgusting' and are 'Glorifying Ignorance'.  Protestors rioting in Ferguson, Mo. are "glorifying ignorance" and "what we're seeing in this city is disgusting," said Minister Jonathan Gentry from West Angeles Church of God in Christ on Neil Cavuto yesterday.  Gentry accused Al Sharpton of "fueling hate into an innocent generation" and said that activists like Holder, Obama, Sharpton and Jackson need to "look themselves in the mirror before protesting" because change needs to begin within African-American communities.  "You want everything else around you changed except yourself," said Gentry.  "That is no way to survive."

New Cure for Racial Violence in Minneapolis: Crack down on the victims.  Police in Minneapolis have discovered a new way to fight the wave of black violence and mayhem that is now an every day fact of life in their city:  Blame the white victims for drinking too much. [...] First, Minneapolis police tried ignoring the problem.  But dozens of victims, videos, witnesses, police reports and 911 calls made that impossible.  Then they tried denying it:  A spokesman for Minneapolis police department told me that race has nothing to do with anything involving crime and anyone who thinks differently is a bad person.  That lasted about as long as it took to go the Minneapolis Police Department web site and see all the special programs for "protected" minorities.

The media embargo on "the B word".  [Scroll down]  If America's reporters are so concerned about race relations in the country that such descriptions are included immediately when discussing a case where a white person is charged with injury to an African American, how is such discussion less valid when the roles are reversed? [...] As much as some of these news outlets may hate to admit it, black people do, on occasion, commit acts of violence.  And sometimes the victims of that violence are white.  But somehow that's not a story.

Will Black Mob Violence Put an End to State and County Fairs?  I remember the first time I was taken to the state fair in Arizona.  I was in junior high school and enthralled with all the rides, food and games.  It was a fun and safe family atmosphere.  However, I can't help but wonder if those days will soon be over for county and state fairs and they become a thing of the past.  As reported by WND, last year, the Drew Expo in Roanoke, Virginia was forced to close early due to black mob violence.  The violence involved at least 500 people and was almost a repeat of what happened in past years.  The Spring Carnival in Hampton, Virginia last May was forced to close a week early after black mob violence erupted and resulted in five people being shot, one of them fatally.

Fights disrupt Albany fireworks.  Albany Police suspended the July 4th fireworks show Wednesday night because they say a series of fights put families, who were there to enjoy a night of fun, in danger.  Chief John Proctor said a number of fights broke out in the Turtle Park area where many people gathered to watch the fireworks show.  He said it became a safety and crowd control issue, and police officers made the decision to suspend the fireworks.

Fox News's Bill O'Reilly spotlights 'mob violence' in Detroit.  Fox News host Bill O'Reilly gives vigorous coverage to stories in which white people suffer crimes at the hands of black people.  In May 2012, he turned a group assault by black youths on two white newspaper staffers in Norfolk into a federal case.  Last September, following the not-guilty verdict in the Trayvon Martin case, O'Reilly said:  "Is there a rise of hate crimes in the U.S.A. in the wake of the Trayvon Martin verdict?  All over the country, police are arresting black men and some girls for assaulting white people."  Four examples followed.

Florida State Fair in Tampa Forced to Close Early Due to Massive Black Mob Violence.  [T]hough a massive concentration of youth (oddly, they happened to all be black) forced the early shutdown of the Florida State Fair in Tampa last week — covered up for a few days by police, Maj. Tom Feeney would describe this as the "worst thing he has seen in law enforcement" in 30 years — you still aren't supposed to notice or question any racial aspect of this incident.

Beat Whitey Night Goes Viral: the Milwaukee State Fair.  The Chamber of Commerce in Atlanta tried to cover-up the Black Atlanta Public Schools (APS) cheating scandal; Philadelphia tried to replicate Atlanta by performing a similar cheating scandal for academically-challenged Black students; and "Beat Whitey Night" just went viral in Milwaukee, a city that is already on the brink of something... big.  Chicago has had Mahogany Mobs; Cleveland and Philadelphia too.  Carter Strange rests in a hospital, nearly beaten to death by a Black mob in Columbia.  The Mainstream Media (MSM) refuses to connect the dots that point to a national emergency that no curfew can contain. [...] Blacks are getting a free pass to attack whites nationwide, and the Beat Whitey night of Iowa's State Fair in 2010 has gone viral.

Downtown business owner says violent teen mobs not uncommon.  Police said that Saturday night's rampant vandalism and violence was an isolated event.  But those who have seen groups of teens terrorize the area just south of Waterfront Park before, say it's nothing new.  Police responded to 17 separate incidents Saturday night between 7 and 9 p.m.  They say the criminal acts occurred after police broke up a gathering of around 200 teenagers at Waterfront Park.

The universality of black mob violence.  The Media in the U.S.A. generally refer to such attacks as "fights" to make it appear the the victims and their attackers were equally to blame.  One such mob attack occurred in Georgia where Joshua Heath Chellew was assaulted by four black males at a Chevron gas station.  Like the attack mentioned above, the mob appeared to select Chellew as a random victim merely because he was white.  Chellew was severely beaten, then forced into oncoming traffic where he was killed.  That attack occurred in June of this year.  The Associated Press shamefully reported Chellew's murder as a fight that spilled into the street.

Why is the Media Whitewashing Black Flash-Mob Violence?  In the latest occurrence of flash-mob violence, 10-15 young people attacked four men in Denver earlier this week.  Multiple attacks similar to this one have taken place across the country this summer with one disturbing similarity:  The media has generally refrained from reporting that the attackers have generally been black — while their victims have usually been white.  Racially motivated?  Not sure — but I am sure of this:  If just one group of white youths attacked blacks or Hispanics in similar fashion, all hell would break loose.  The liberal media would suffer a collective apoplectic seizure, while Al Sharpton would be on the next jet to wherever the attack had occurred [...]

Black Mob Violence Comes to Kentucky.  [L]ess than 24 hours after a mob of 30 black people roamed through the city's downtown Saturday [3/22/2014], beating, laughing, destroying property, sending three seriously hurt people to the hospital and walking away laughing, outraged citizens in Louisville are asking two questions:  Why is black mob violence such a problem?  And when is local media going to start telling the truth about it?

Race Riots in America.  In June, thousands of black people headed to the Brighton Beach for the annual Brooklyn-Queens Day.  Five people were shot.  Lots of mayhem and violence as well. ... Why does it freak so many people out to state the obvious:  This was a race riot.  In January, dozens of black people mobbed a Wendy's in Queen's Village, with beatings, property damage and threats.  In May, the same thing happened at Dunkin' Donuts, a large group of black people were "terrorizing" employees and stealing from the store.

Possible Flash Mob Hits Maryland 7-Eleven, Police Say.  A pack of 30 teens helped themselves to items in a Maryland 7-Eleven early Sunday morning [8/14/2011] in what authorities have labeled another instance of a possible flash mob.  The store, which is located in Germantown, Md., was empty at 2 a.m. Sunday morning when a group of teenagers calmly walked in and picked out items as though they were shopping.  Then, just as calmly as they entered the store, police say, they exited without paying for the items.

The news media intentionally suppress politically-incorrect facts.
Media Stifling Racial Violence Coverage.  Race matters if we want to understand the current wave of racial mob violence.  Flash mobs have a lot of people talking, no thanks to PC journalists who have refused all along to help us understand this emerging social problem.  For those who care about language and the truth, Mary Schmich of the Chicago Tribune has done a great service.  She openly admits that her newspaper refuses to report the race of violent criminals responsible for an outbreak of racial mob violence in Chicago, which mirrors similar violence around the country.

Video Shows Teens Violently Looting Redford Gas Station.  Surveillance video shows a group of teenagers on Friday night [7/22/2011] tearing through a Redford Township gas station.  The group of nearly 20 teens are shown running through the station and stealing several pieces of merchandise, owner Sam Matalka said.  Matalka said he lost hundreds of dollars in merchandise and had to spend hours cleaning up the damages caused by the teens Friday night.

The Editor says...
"Black" would be part of a more accurate description of the suspects, since that's what they all have in common, but that word is completely absent from this story.

'Flash robs' invade Canada.  Close to midnight on a hot summer's night in July, the Quickie convenience store in Ottawa's west end was virtually empty.  The next minute, 40 or so youth descended en masse.  As they marched in they grabbed everything in sight.  The next minute, like a well-oiled many-tentacled machine, the mob turned around and left with $800 worth of goods.

The Editor says...
The writer's name is Debra Black; aside from that, there is no mention of "black" in the article, even though an illustration shows that all the perpetrators were black.

Once again, no mention of black.
Teen mayhem hits Philly's streets again.  A mob of unruly teens last night once again wreaked havoc on Center City, assaulting and robbing random pedestrians.  About 9:15 p.m., police began to receive 9-1-1 calls about a group of 20 to 40 teens assaulting people.

No mention of the forbidden word black here either.
Witnesses Describe Mob Attacks Outside Wisconsin State Fair.  Police said the group of young people attacked fair goers who were leaving the fair grounds.  Police said that some victims were attacked while walking.  They said others were pulled out of cars and off of motorcycles before being beaten.

Witnesses describe mobs, some people claim racially-charged attacks.  Witnesses tell [WTMJ] of a mob of young people attacking innocent fair-goers at the end of the opening night of State Fair, with some callers claiming a racially-charged scene.  Milwaukee Police confirmed there were assaults outside the fair.  Witnesses' accounts claim everything from dozens to hundreds of young black people beating white people as they left [the Wisconsin] State Fair Thursday night [8/4/2011].

Racial mob violence rocks the Wisconsin State Fair.  This is far worse than the racially motivated attacks at last year's Iowa State Fair during "beat whitey night."  The dramatic and unprecedented rise in black on white violence across America has yet to be addressed by Mr. Obama or any of the leadership in Washington who are far more concerned with attacking Tea Party members as racists and terrorists than they are in facing any of the real issues which are tearing our country apart.

This article mentions the one detail left out by other writers.
Mob Rampages Through Wisconsin State Fair.  A concession worker told the newspaper that large groups of African-American youths began running through the midway around 7:00pm, knocking people over, disrupting rides and tearing up signs.  He said police, including officers on horseback, were not able to bring the situation under control.

Union Thugs Disrupt Wisconsin State Fair.  Wisconsin's public sector unions are ramping up hysteria in anticipation of the recall elections on Tuesday.  A reported $15 million, most of it from out of state, has been spent on behalf of the left-wing candidates in the recall races.  Yesterday, Scott Walker opened the Wisconsin State Fair, as is traditionally done by the governor.  But the unions couldn't let their hyperpartisanship rest even for fifteen minutes, and they put on a disgraceful delay.

Lessons from a Milwaukee Mob.  On August 4, 2011, the opening night of the Wisconsin State Fair, the worst race riot in Wisconsin history occurred.  As darkness fell over the amusement park area known as the Midway before closing time, hundreds of young blacks swarmed out into the parking lot, seeking out white fairgoers to attack — pulling people off their bikes, out of their cars, to knock them to the ground and beat them:  with fists and whatever blunt instruments they had handy.

American Tinderbox.  For some time now, residents of some US cities have noted occasional incidents of seemingly random, racially motivated violence in which young Black males are involved.  The hot weather and bad economy seem to be combining to generate a small but possibly significant uptick this year.  The national media are doing their best to avoid looking too closely at this disturbing phenomenon, and perhaps for good reason.  What the United States doesn't need is a media firestorm that triggers copycat violence.  Nevertheless some attention should be paid.

It's time to take steps to stop young thugs.  While out of town last week, I suddenly started receiving urgent long-distance messages about young black people in Milwaukee acting crazy.  Again.  Last time it happened, I was on vacation during the Fourth of July weekend when a bunch of misbehaving young black people ransacked a gas station convenience store and attacked residents in a park.

The Taboo on Mentioning Black Mob Violence.  The wave of racist violence committed by black flash mobs is different from any other form of racism today.  The neglected social problem of racial mob violence is unique in its organization, the high numbers of people involved, the intensity of the violence, and the stark racial impact of that violence.  The violence is also unique in that it has been purposefully obscured by the mainstream media, with the editor of the Chicago Tribune, among others, saying that his paper will not report on the race of the attackers.

Boy, 11, among 4 charged in flash-mob attacks.  An 11-year-old boy is among four people who have been arrested for allegedly participating in a mob that wrought chaos on Center City on Friday night.

Witnesses describe mobs, some people claim racially-charged attacks.  Witnesses tell [WTMJ] of a mob of young people attacking innocent fair-goers at the end of the opening night of State Fair, with some callers claiming a racially-charged scene.  Milwaukee Police confirmed there were assaults outside the fair.  Witnesses' accounts claim everything from dozens to hundreds of young black people beating white people as they left State Fair Thursday night [8/4/2011].

Weapons of Mob Destruction.  In Philadelphia, a group of 20-40 youths went on a rampage in Center City August 1st, resulting in 59 people being beaten and briefly hospitalized.  Last Thursday, a mob ran through the Wisconsin State Fair at closing time, beating up people at random.  In London, citizens have been besieged by three straight nights of hellish rioting, even as that rioting has spread to other parts of the nation.  The common themes?  A racial component, studiously ignored wherever possible; technology that makes mob organization far easier than ever before; and the undeniable relationship between welfare state policies and the expansion of underclass mores.

The Mob Tears at the Foundations of Civilization.  The law has failed Marty Marshall and his Akron, Ohio, family.  On the Fourth of July in 2009, he was watching fireworks in his front yard with his wife and children.  A mob of 30 to 50 black teenagers went onto his property and beat up Marshall, his wife, his children and two adult male friends.  "This is our world.  This is a black world," they taunted the injured victims.  Marshall spent five nights hospitalized in critical care.

West Allis Police release timeline detailing incidents at State Fair.  The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department released 911 audio from the opening night of State Fair.  These tapes display the graphic details of the attacks, some of which were racially motivated. ... Most callers tell dispatchers they see a racially motivated melee.

White Mob Terrorizes Black Milwaukeeans.  I'm sorry.  I got that header wrong.  It was a black mob that ransacked convenience stores and hammered a group of white people in Milwaukee this past July 4th weekend. ... The fact that it was a black on white assault would explain why we didn't hear about it via the national news.

All eight suspects in brutal Five Points beating in custody.  All eight suspects are in custody after a brutal attack in Five Points early Monday morning [6/20/2011] which left the teenage victim in critical condition, according to Columbia police.

Solicitor: No evidence that Five Points beating was racially motivated.  Except that the thugs were black and the victim was white.  Maybe he didn't notice.

Blacks must not remain silent about America's new racists.  Last year, four black Skidmore College students yelled racial slurs while they beat up a white man because he was dining with a black man.  Skidmore College's first response was to offer counseling to one of the black students charged with the crime.  In 2009, a black Columbia University professor assaulted a white woman during a heated argument about race relations.  According to interviews and court records obtained and reported by Denver's ABC affiliate, black gangs roamed downtown Denver verbally venting their hatred for white victims before assaulting and robbing them during a four-month crime wave.

Planned Parenthood's 'Lucy Ricardo moment' arrives in a Texas rape case.  Last November, an 11-year-old Latina was gang-raped in the town about 40 miles northeast of Houston.  At least one of the idiots who took part in this atrocity recorded the incident on a cell phone camera.  Videos of the assault surfaced at the girl's school.  One of her classmates alerted the principal, who alerted police.  So far, 18 suspects have been arrested and charged.  According to some news stories, all of them are black; according to others, the "overwhelming majority" are.

Police: Race a factor in State Fair violence.  All the victims were white or Hispanic and the offenders were described as African-American.

These riots were about race. Why ignore the fact?  What colour is Mark Duggan?  Mark Duggan is the man who was shot dead by the police on Thursday in Tottenham.  The Tottenham riots last night were sparked when people protested his death.  This morning, I first heard of the riots on the radio, then on the television.  I read articles on the internet.  But oddly, no one would say what colour Mark Duggan was.  No one would say the unsayable, that the rioters were, I suspect on the whole, black.

Flash Mob Robberies Continue.  In the latest incident, 10 women stormed the Shop Express convenience store along Benning Road in northeast Washington at about 3:15 a.m. Thursday.  They loaded up on food, drinks and snacks at different parts of the store.  Some of the women were carrying bags to hold some of the items.  Then they all rushed out of the store at the same time without paying.

The Editor says...
Fortunately the accompanying video tells the rest of the story, since the "reporter" didn't: all the suspects were black.

Are the Black Flash Mob Attacks on Whites Obama's Fault?  As America's first black president, fair or unfair, Obama's presidency comes with enormous responsibility in terms of its influence on black youths.  This is why it is so unfortunate that American black youths' ultimate role model is a characterless, race-baiting political hack.  While I am not saying president Obama is responsible for the epidemic of black youth flash-mob attacks on whites around our country, his race-baiting has to be a contributing factor.

'Flash mobs' pose challenge to police tactics.  The suspects in these crimes often connected via cellphones and share information on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook, police say.  How best to combat the technology-connected crimes — and how far police agencies should reach into private online and mobile phone access — are at the core of a growing debate among police officials, city leaders and civil rights activists.  Everyone agrees:  It's uncharted territory for law enforcement.

Again, the most appropriate adjective was omitted.
17 charged in Germantown flash mob theft.  Montgomery County police say 17 people have been charged in a flash mob theft of a Germantown convenience store.  A group of 25 young people stormed the 7-Eleven at 13001 Wisteria Drive shortly before 2 a.m. on Aug. 13.  In just about a minute, they stole snacks, drinks and other items from the store, then left.

The Racial Violence that Dare Not Speak Its Name.  Recent flash mob violence has alerted Americans to a troubling wave of sadistic racial mayhem.  A notable outbreak occurred in Denver in 2009, setting a pattern of delay, denial, and silence.  Now that same scourge has returned to Denver, among many other places.  In 2009, a four month wave of mayhem broke out in Denver.  There were at least 26 violent robberies committed by two black gangs.  The victims were — without exception — whites and Hispanics.

Motive Unclear In Attack By Group Of Teens On 16th Street Mall.  Police are asking for the public's help tracking down a large group of violent teenagers.  They say 10 to 15 young people — described as black or Hispanic and both male and female — attacked four white men on the 16th Street Mall at about 10:45 p.m. on Sunday [9/11/2011].

WCBS-TV seems very sympathetic with this gang of teenage armed robbers.
Brazen Teenage Gang Robbing Straphangers During Rush Hour.  Police are searching for teenage thugs targeting subway riders.  There have been at least three armed attacks recently.  CBS 2's Dave Carlin has seen pictures of the suspects and knows what they're after.  A team of baby-faced bandits, young enough to still be in high school, is making life quite stressful in Gotham's underworld.

White Middle-Schooler Beaten Unconscious by Group of Black Students.  The story is shocking enough, even without bringing race into it:  on the way to school in Ocala, FA, a thirteen-year-old girl was beaten unconscious and reportedly went into a seizure after being attacked on the school bus by a group of fellow students.  The girl reportedly was riding the bus for the first time. ... Aside from the brutality, there was another troubling fact about this crime — a fact that predictably did not make it into the news:  the attackers were black, and the victim was white.

Associated Press coverage of the same story, with no mention of the obvious adjective, "black":
7 teens charged with beating classmate unconscious.  Seven central Florida teenagers were arrested after authorities said they punched and kicked a 13-year-old until she was unconscious while on a school bus.

Riot breaks out at Dekaney High School.  A Dakaney High School student used a cell phone to capture a brawl that broke out in the cafeteria on Friday [1/27/2012].  Spring ISD officials said the fight started between four students and no one was seriously hurt.  But students said — and the video will attest — that it was more like a riot, and there were a lot more than four students involved.

Massive brawl at notorious high school.  Police were called to a troubled Texas high school after another major brawl erupted in the cafeteria — and parents say they have had enough.  Cell phone video provided an inside look at Friday's melee, showing students at Andy Dekaney High School, throwing wild punches and crowding the cafeteria.

Brazen smash-and-grab jewelry store mall robberies continue.  Gordon's Jewelers at First Colony Mall in Sugar Land suffered the most recent attack, as KTRK Ch. 13 first reported.  A surveillance video from Feb. 22 shows four masked men storming the store, smashing display cases, stealing merchandise and running from the scene in less than a minute.

Media Conceal True Nature of "Flash Mob" Racial Violence.  Relying on documents made available exclusively through a Freedom of Information Act request, we can add another face to the growing picture of racial "flash mob" violence in America.  It is a face that the media have concealed from public view.  This writer was forced to use the local Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to ascertain the facts about the racial identity of one of the victims of these attacks.  The media concealed the identity of the white victim apparently because of misguided racial sensitivity.

Flynn calls looting, beatings in Riverwest barbaric.  Shaina Perry remembers the punch to her face, blood streaming from a cut over her eye, her backpack with her asthma inhaler, debit card and cellphone stolen, and then the laughter.  "They just said 'Oh, white girl bleeds a lot,'" said Perry, 22, who was attacked at Kilbourn Reservoir Park over the Fourth of July weekend.

Of course there is no mention of black in this article.
Carter Strange Speaks About Five Points Assault.  On June 20th, Strange was brutally attacked by a group of eight teenagers as he was walking home in Columbia's Five Points. ... Eight suspects were arrested in connection with his attack, and seven of the suspects were juveniles.

Police: Trayvon protesters ransack store.  North Miami Beach police said surveillance video shows dozens of high school students demonstrating in the Trayvon Martin case Friday [3/23/2012] ransacking a Walgreens store.  The incident occurred during a walkout from North Miami Beach Senior High School in support of Martin, 17, who was fatally shot in Sanford.

NMB Students Turn Trayvon March Into Criminal Mischief Investigation.  Thousands of students in South Florida have taken part in school walkouts as a way to protest the lack of an arrest in the Trayvon Martin killing at the hands of a volunteer neighborhood watch campaign.  All of them remained peaceful except for one and North Miami Beach police released surveillance video Tuesday [3/27/2012] of that incident which took place at a Walgreens located at 1501 NE 163rd Street.

6 charged in beating of NC man in Seneca.  The report said that a woman told police that there were several black men attacking the 32-year-old white man, whose identity was redacted.  "Upon exiting the restaurant he was jumped by a mob of individuals, and severely beaten about the head and torso," said John Covington, the Seneca police chief.  "The report was that racial slurs were being used toward the victim."

The Media Downplay Murder When It's Black-on-White and Black-on-Black.  If violent black-white crime generates headlines, where were the media after the sickening racially motivated assault that occurred in Long Beach, Calif., on Halloween night, 2006?  Three young white women were brutally kicked, punched and beaten by a mostly black mob of 30 to 40 teens and adults.  According to witnesses, during the rampage the mob yelled:  "We hate white people.  F--- whites!"  Yet only two local papers reported the story, and one — the Los Angeles Times — published its article a full week after the attack!

'The level of poverty, the disillusionment hasn't changed'.  Twenty years ago, at the intersection of Florence and Normandie in south Los Angeles, a mostly black mob, enraged at the acquittal of four Los Angeles policemen in the beating of black motorist Rodney King, dragged white truck driver Reginald Denny from his cab and beat him unconscious while news helicopters hovered overhead.  The gory images helped incite six days of fires and looting throughout the city that led to 53 deaths and an estimated $1 billion in property damage.

Twitter Buzzes With Talk of Zimmerman Riots.  Since Friday [4/20/2012], there has been an explosion of tweets surrounding the possibility of rioting if Zimmerman is acquitted — or even because he was released on bail.

L.A. Riots Picture Special.  This Sunday marks the 20th anniversary of the night when chaos broke out in Los Angeles.  Angered by the acquittal of three white and one Hispanic police officers who had been filmed beating black motorist Rodney King rioting erupted across the city.  When the flames had died down six days later 55 people had died, 2,300 had been injured and more than 1,500 buildings were left damaged or destroyed.

Thin Veneer of Civilization.  [Scroll down]  I went back to the hotel on the evening of April 29 to the news of the near-beating death of trucker Reginald Denny in the aftermath the acquittal of the four Los Angeles Police Department officers charged with using excessive force during their arrest of Rodney King after a drunken King led them on a high speed chase and then resisted once the police pulled him over.

What We Should Have Learned.  Could it happen again?  That is the taboo question on the 20th anniversary of Los Angeles's murderous Rodney King riots, just as another racially charged prosecution — this time in Florida — captures headlines across the nation.  Sadly, the answer is yes.

Norfolk, Virginia: Violent Black Flash Mob Assault White Journos — Their Newspaper Buries News For Weeks.  The feral wilding mob was 100 strong, at least 30 participated in the attack.

'Justice for Trayvon':
15 Whites Beaten By Gangs of Black Thugs... So Far.  At least 15 whites have been beaten not just with fists, but with potentially deadly weapons including hammers and lengths of chain.  Many of the victims have been hospitalized, some may never fully recover, and one lingers on the verge of death.  David Forster and Marjon Rostami are just the latest victims of brutal beatings tied to the Trayvon Martin shooting, and some Virginians are outraged that the newspaper did not report the attack for "politically correct reasons."  The attack was revealed not as news, but in an opinion piece.

Attack on Pilot reporters was a crime — but not the only one.  Pilot reporters Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami were pummeled by a pack of punks last month in Norfolk.  It was two weeks before any mention of that vicious attack appeared in the paper.  As a result, The Virginian-Pilot is now taking a beating.  The reporters didn't deserve this act of aggression.  But what about The Pilot?

A problem with the truth?  As WND reported Tuesday [5/1/2012], dozens of black teenagers attacked two white reporters for the local Norfolk, Va., newspaper, the Virginia-Pilot.  Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami were stopped at a traffic light two weeks ago as a crowd of at least 100 black youths congregated nearby.  Someone threw a rock at the window of the car and Forster got out to confront the perpetrator.  That's when the beating started.  When Rostami tried to pull Forster back into the vehicle, the crowd of dozens began pulling her hair, punching her head and scratching her eyes.  Both were out of work for a week due to their injuries.  Amazingly, though the victims were staffers for the only newspaper in town, the story was not reported.

Mob of between 30-100 black teens brutally beat white male and female in Virginia.  The pink slime media and race hustlers have more blood on their hands as yet another racially motivated mob beating has occurred.  As usual, with the exception of a few local reports, the pink slime media is silent on this story.  Even in the following video from a local ABC station in Norfolk, the reporter mentions:  "a mob of teens" forgoing the mention of the race of the attackers.  Welcome to Obamaville.

White couple's terror as 30-strong mob of black youths armed with rocks attacks.  A 16-year-old male has been arrested after a gang of black youths armed with rocks violently beat a white couple in an unprovoked attack.  Reporters Marjon Rostami and Dave Forster were waiting at a red light at the intersection of Brambleton Avenue and Church Street in Norfolk, Virginia, on April 14 when they were set upon by the 30-strong mob.  But the couple's ordeal was not reported by their employer, the Virginian-Pilot, for two weeks, sparking outrage among some readers who claim the newspaper buried the story for political reasons.

O'Reilly Producer Confronts Editor Of Virginia Paper About Covering Up 'Racially Motivated' Assault.  On his show Monday [5/7/2012], Bill O'Reilly started off by following up on the assault case in Norfolk, Virginia — in which two Virginian-Pilot reporters, Dave Forster and Marjon Rostami, were attacked by a group of black men.  The story went unreported in the paper for two weeks, and O'Reilly has been following the case since last week.  In this update, we heard from the paper's editor himself.

Bill O'Reilly: 'Inconceivable That Had a White Mob Set Upon Two Black Americans Media Would Sit it Out'.  "It is inconceivable that had a white mob set upon two black Americans the media would sit it out."  So said Fox News's Bill O'Reilly Monday about the media's almost total silence about a white couple that was attacked by a crowd of young African-Americans three weeks ago in Norfolk, Virginia.

Group of 10 or 15 'thugs' rob and beat 5 people following Prudential Center concert, cops say.  A roving band of teenagers assaulted five people as they left a sold-out concert at Newark's Prudential Center Saturday night [5/5/2012], leaving one man unconscious and another with a fractured eye socket during a two-minute crime spree, according to police officials and incident reports.  The attacks happened as nearly 20,000 guests departed from a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert and marked only the second major reported crime at the arena since it opened in 2007, officials said.

Newark police: Violence may have been chief motivation in brutal Prudential Center assaults.  The mob of teens who attacked and robbed five people who eaving a sold-out Prudential Center concert Saturday night were "laughing" during the brutal assaults, and may have set out to injure people rather than rob them, Newark police officials said this morning.

Mobile police chief: No more arrests expected in Matthew Owens beating.  Barring new information, police do not expect to make any more arrests the widely publicized beating of a man in the city's Pleasant Valley community, Police Chief Micheal Williams said today [5/9/2012].  The beating, which left Matthew Owens in the hospital in critical condition, caused a sensation that reverberated across the nation because the victim is white and the large group of men, women and children who confronted him are black.

A Censored Race War?  When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks — beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work — that might seem to have been news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper.  But it wasn't.  "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News Channel was the first major television program to report this incident.  Yet this story is not just a Norfolk story, either in what happened or in how the media and the authorities have tried to sweep it under the rug.

It's the toxic culture that's killing our kids.  FoxNews' Bill O'Reilly has been publicizing the attack on two white reporters by a mob of about 30 black youths in Norfolk, Virginia that took place on April 14th.  He did this because the reporters' own newspaper, the Virginia-Pilot, delayed the report on the assault until after the reporters filed a complaint against the Norfolk police.  Since the killing of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida, there have been a number of black on white assaults that have gone unpublicized and Mr. O'Reilly was attempting to tie this mob attack with others.

Evidence presented in Bryan Stow beating case.  The video was the first piece of evidence Los Angeles County prosecutors put forth Wednesday [5/30/2012] during the opening day of the preliminary hearing for Norwood and Sanchez.  The hearing will determine whether there is enough evidence for the two men to stand trial on charges of mayhem, assault and battery, and inflicting great bodily injury in the brutal beating of San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow at Dodger Stadium on opening day last year.

'Flash' Mob Violence, Poverty, and Reclaiming the Streets.  As a physician at Northwestern Memorial Hospital learned the other night, you're really not safe in Streeterville.  Accosted by a "flash" mob of black teenagers, the physician was repeatedly hit and beaten.  He wasn't robbed.  He says the motive wasn't racial, as he's Asian.  But typically such mobs are black and their victims are whites, who are abused with racist insults while they're being injured.  The physician observed that the teenagers had accosted others before they attacked him.

No mention of the word "black", as usual.
'Flash rob' targets Troutdale Albertsons.  A group of teens targeted a Troutdale store last weekend in a 'flash rob' and investigators are trying to identify the suspects.  Investigators said as many as 40 kids entered the Albertsons store at 25691 SE Stark Street at the same time late Saturday night [7/14/2012] and started stealing things.

Are Race Riots News?  When I first saw a book with the title, "White Girl Bleed A Lot" by Colin Flaherty, I instantly knew what it was about, even though I had not seen the book reviewed anywhere, and knew nothing about the author. [...] That phrase was spoken by a member of a mob of young blacks who attacked whites at random at a Fourth of July celebration in Milwaukee last year.  What I was appalled to learn, in the course of my research, was that such race riots have occurred in other cities across the United States in recent years — and that the national mainstream media usually ignore these riots.

Again, no mention of the term "black".
Smash mob causes havoc at Walmart.  The Walmart off Lem Turner Road in Jacksonville fell victim to a mob of 300 people who entered the store and destroyed the security system as well as some merchandise.  According to a police report, the group destroyed an electronic anti-shop lifting security scanner that costs about $1,500.  The police report also stated the massive crowd could have arrived at the store after a party that was broken up on Sampson Road.

An interview with Colin Flaherty:
White Girl Bleed a Lot.  [Scroll down slowly]  I documented hundreds of examples in more than 70 cities.  And here is what happens.  I hear about a riot or a mob and I check it out and learn that it was a large group of black people creating havoc.  So I write the details.  In the course of reporting it, or after the story comes out, I almost always hear:  "That's been happening here a long time."  But reporters are afraid to write about it.  City officials are afraid to combat it, or call it by its name.  So it goes on.  And it is not just the places where you might expect it:  Chicago, Philly, Boston, Baltimore.  It's in smaller places in the Midwest as well. [...] Ames, Iowa.  They had a "Beat Whitey Night" at the State Fair.  Peoria, Illinois.  They had almost a dozen episodes of racial violence and lawlessness by black mobs over the last year.  Milwaukee.  Minneapolis.  Seattle.  Portland.  And on and on.

Black mobs now have soundtrack for violence.  The epidemic of black-mob violence now has a soundtrack.  In fact, lots of them: sophisticated, highly produced songs and videos that urge black people to create all kinds of mayhem.  From murdering CEOs and delivery drivers to starting riots and engaging in random warfare and everything in between.  Millions of people enjoy them every day; not just as music, but as a lifestyle.  It is not known if any of the 1,000 black people who rioted in downtown Greensboro following the Fourth of July festivities this year were dancing to this kind of music.  But there is no doubt they were part of the lifestyle.

Chicago clothing store loses $3,000 worth of jeans in flash robbery.  A clothing store in a trendy Chicago neighborhood is one of the latest victims of a so-called flash mob robbery — when a large group storms into a shop to collectively rip off a retailer.  About 20 people entered the Mildblend Supply Co. in Wicker Park on Saturday afternoon [7/28/2012], together grabbing more than $3,000 worth of high-priced denim jeans, according to police.

Drunken gang of girls in subway stab attack: cops.  A wolf pack of drunken young women "acting stupid" on a downtown No. 6 train in Manhattan stabbed a 63-year-old man early today [7/30/2012] — for having had the nerve to ask them to pipe down, police said.  The man was on his way to work at about 6:15 a.m. when he was attacked as the train entered the East 23rd Street station, a law-enforcement source told The [New York] Post.

'They were laughing as they slashed at me'.  The 63-year-old war veteran who was attacked and stabbed by a group of young girls on a subway on Sunday morning said the gang were laughing at him as they stabbed him.  Ralph Carnegary, of Queens, has spoken out about the unprovoked attack which left him in hospital.

The local police and the news media bend over backwards to avoid stating the obvious.
Six teens attacked man because 'they were just bored,' police say.  Six teenagers "were just bored and were looking for something to do," a police report said, when they ambushed [Pat] Mahaney as he turned off Simpson Avenue onto Dallas Avenue. [...] Several residents called police, noting the suspects are black and inquiring whether Mahaney was specifically targeted because he is white.

The Editor says...
This is the most transparently false cover story I've heard since the crash of American 587. .  How "bored" would you have to be to attack a stranger on the streetcorner and beat him up?  Thugs don't ambush people out of boredom.  They are inner-city predators looking for someone to punch out.  Preferably someone who can't possibly fight back when outnumbered four-to-one.  It's a sport.  It's a hobby.  It's a chest-thumping male dominance ritual.

Update:
Man beaten by 'bored' teens dies 1 year later.  Authorities say the Cincinnati-area man who was badly beaten by six teens almost a year ago in a Cincinnati suburb has died.  Pat Mahaney, 46, died yesterday in the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, said Julie Wilson, spokeswoman for the Hamilton County prosecutor's office.  The six teens, all 13 or 14, injured Mahaney in August and told police they did it because they were bored and looking for something to do.

Moving melee causes chaos at packed Mall of America.  A noisy, racing crowd of more than 200 young people created a chaotic scene at the packed Mall of America Monday evening [12/26/2011], sending frightened shoppers scrambling for safety and causing some stores to close early, eyewitnesses and officials said.  It took more than an hour to quell the disturbance, which began about 4:20 p.m. as a single fight involving a large group in a food court and quickly spread through the nation's largest mall...

The Editor says...
This story is accompanied by video, which shows all the violent actors were black, but the word black is nowhere to be found in any of the articles describing the event.

Mall of America melee may have started over rumors of Drake and Lil Wayne visit.  Rumors that rap superstars Drake and Lil Wayne were visiting Minnesota's Mall of America may have sparked Monday's massive brawl at the giant retail center, a local TV station said.  Nine people were arrested as dozens of shoppers fought on one of the busiest shopping days of the year, according to local media reports. ... A Mall spokeswoman said the incident involved about 50 youths, but witnesses and police pegged the number at closer to 200.

Riot at the Mall of America.  One of my daughters works at a department store at the Mall of America.  After the riot was over, she texted one of her sisters:  ["][My department store] closed its doors.  It was the scariest thing I have ever seen.  Hundreds of gang members running through the Mall knocking things over.  And there were fights all over!  A good half of them were wearing red.["]

Eric Holder, 'Hate Crimes,' and 'His People'.  A group of those whom Eric Holder described as "his people," at least six young men, repeatedly punched a 24-year-old white woman in the face, then proceeded to kick her face over and over when she was on the ground helpless.  This occurred in Buffalo, New York last week, but the event has received no attention by the mainstream media because the victim was white and the attackers were black.  This was no friendly urban jostling:  the woman was left with a broken nose and cracked bones in her face.  There must have been a little bit of hate in at least one of those kicks to the face, but you can bet it won't be charged as a hate crime.

Cops: Man hit by car, officer hurt as 100 people brawl in Dover.  Multiple fights were happening at once in the crowd of more than 100 people by the time Sgt. Anthony Smith and officers Jonathan Cachola, Walter Michalski and Paul Wilkes arrived, police said.  Michalski then went to Mercer Street where he found a man lying bloody on the sidewalk, police said.  Friends of the man told Michalski the driver had purposely struck him with a car and left, police said.  So Michalski began administering first-aid to the man, but he called for additional units to assist him when a large, raucous crowd encircled them, police said.

The Editor says...
It is sometimes necessary to read between the lines of a news story.  The word "black" was not used in any of the news reports about this incident.  However, given the news media's track record, it is safe to say that if a mob of a hundred white people had taken part in a street brawl/riot, the story would have been carried by dozens of media outlets, leaving no doubts about the rioters' general description.

Pa. Football player's death ruled homicide.  [Timothy] McNerney was walking back to campus with Zach DeCicco from Main Street Brew House on South Main Street when they were approached near the rear of Lombardi's Auto Service by as many as six males wanting to steal a cellphone, [Police Lt. Dan] Stanek said.

The Editor says...
The victim was known to Google, and a search for pictures of "Timothy McNerney" shows he was a white man.  The perpetrators were apparently black.  What makes me think so?  Because if they hadn't been black, they would have been described as white men in the press.

Looters brag on Twitter.  [Scroll down]  A mob of more than 50 thieves made the most of the opportunity on Coney's Island, starting down Mermaid Avenue on Tuesday morning [10/30/2012] as the water receded.  'People were running in and out of Rent-A-Center carrying these big flat-screens,' witness Aisha John, 20, told the Daily News.  'They were holding on tight.  I couldn't understand how someone could steal a big TV in broad daylight, but no one cared.'

Queens residents arm themselves in the post-storm blackout from looters.  When night falls in the Rockaways, the hoods come out.  Ever since Sandy strafed the Queens peninsula and tore up the boardwalk, it's become an often lawless place where cops are even scarcer than electrical power and food.  Locals say they are arming themselves with guns, baseball bats, booby traps — even a bow and arrow — to defend against looters.

Seven Black Teenagers Attack 1 White Teenager And Beat Him Senseless.  The white kid was simply going to play football, but seven black kids beat him before he got there.  It was only a few blocks from his house.  Apparently, the kids at his school didn't like him because he was white.

Black Mobs Take Over Washington Metro.  Members of this mob call themselves the 44th Street Crew in Southeast Washington.  For those not familiar with the different sections of Washington, that is not the lobbyist/media/functionary dinner-party part of town.  Reporters at the Fox affiliate in Washington seemed surprised at the mob violence.  But to people who ride the Metro, it was just another day.  Metro police have seen so much of it they are ready with instructions for riders who encounter it:  Resistance is futile.

Shoe shoppers get sprayed with mace at Hulen Mall.  A rush for limited-edition tennis shoes sparked a near riot Friday morning [12/21/2012] at Hulen Mall. [...] The crowd, estimated to be as large as 350 to 400 people, had apparently flocked to the mall to purchase retro Air Jordan sneakers, a re-release of the famous red and black Michael Jordan shoes.  The popular shoes retail for between $150 and $200.

Paramus police arrest 2 teens after group of 10 harassed officers.  Paramus Police Officer Anthony Liggio had stopped a motor vehicle on Route 4 east, backed up by Officer Joseph Cullen, just before 2:30 a.m.  A group of about 10 males walking on the road approached the officers and began to yell and scream insults and obscenities at them, police said.

Flash mob at Mall of Louisiana goes horribly wrong when massive 200-person brawl breaks out instead.  A flash mob at the Mall of Louisiana turned violent last night, causing the shopping center to be evacuated.  As many as 200 young people were in the food court of the Baton Rouge mall for an apparent flash mob, but things turned ugly quickly.

Large-scale fight erupts at Mall of Louisiana, shutting it down.  A large-scale fight involving as many as 200 juveniles erupted in and around Baton Rouge's Mall of Louisiana Saturday night [1/5/2013], prompting three different police agencies to respond and forcing the mall to close, the East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office reported.  No injuries or weapons were immediately reported, Casey Rayborn Hicks, a spokeswoman for the sheriff's department said.

Section 8 housing voucher distribution canceled after thousands waiting in line get out of control.  A chaotic scene erupted at the Taylor Human Services Center when the crowd waiting for a Section 8 housing voucher distribution got out of control. [...] Police say thousands of people from all over the area were at the center.  Many were homeless, single moms, or disabled.  They were hoping to get help paying for their housing from the government.

Riot ensues at Section 8 voucher giveaway.  Law enforcement tried to break up a riot in Detroit Saturday morning after 3,000 to 5,000 people showed up for only 1,000 Section 8 housing vouchers.  People had lined up overnight waiting for the Wayne County Family Health Services Center to open, and when it came time for the vouchers to be distributed, police said there was a mad rush for the door.

Massachusetts man is savagely beaten outside pizza shop in Greenwich Village.  A heinous beatdown in the heart of Greenwich Village has left a Massachusetts man fighting for his life.  Kevin McCarron, 24, was bashed with a tire iron, baseball bat and blackjack and stomped repeatedly by a gang of toughs in the middle of MacDougal St. early Sunday, police and witnesses said.  Cops on Monday [1/14/2013] busted 24-year-old Hatem Farsakh of Brooklyn, who was arraigned on charges of attempted murder and assault.  Onlookers were horrified by the savage attack.

Westampton fight involving 'more than 100 people' leads to five arrests, police say.  A fight involving more than 100 people broke out early Sunday morning [1/20/2013] at the Rancocas Community Center and resulted in $800 worth of damage and five arrests, police said.  Police were sent to the center on Main Street on a report of shots fired and a large fight, police said.  When they arrived about 12:25 a.m., police found more than 100 people acting disorderly and "jumping on top of vehicles," police said.

Brawl At Social Services Office Caught On Video.  Sources said the fighting started even before the video started rolling at the Illinois Department of Human Services Office.  The video shows at least 4 women involved in the brawl, with fists flying from one side of the lobby to the other.

Flash Mob Mayhem: Violent Groups Of Teens Leave NYC Businesses In Ruins.  Violent, thieving mobs have been making headlines across the country for the past few years, and now they have hit New York City.  And Maurice Dubois reported in this CBS 2 investigation, the teen mobs have left neighborhoods worried as businesses take matters into their own hands.

12-year-old among 12 accused in beating of pregnant woman.  A pregnant woman is recovering from an attack after Seminole County Sheriff's deputies said she was beaten during a brawl in Sanford by 12 people, including four juveniles.  The youngest suspect is 12 years old.  Neighbors said the fight broke out on Sunday [2/10/2013] just after 10 p.m. in the Palm Point subdivision along Daffadil Terrace.

High school food fight turns into violent 'race riot'.  What started out as a lunchtime food fight in a Minneapolis high school ended in a massive brawl involving hundreds of students and police officers wielding canisters of Mace.  Minneapolis South High School was placed on lockdown shortly before 1 pm Thursday [2/14/2013] after violence broke out during third-period lunch inside the cafeteria between Muslim and black students.

Hundreds of students brawl at Minn. high school.  A food fight quickly turned into a brawl involving hundreds of students at a Minneapolis high school on Thursday [2/14/2013], forcing police to use chemical spray to break up the melee.

A Blind Pendulum.  While in the newspapers or on television you will not be informed about it in a form that makes sense, a growing cancer of racially-based violence is metastasizing in our cities.  Moreover, unless you were to see these outrages first hand or in media outside the mainstream organs, you would know nothing of it — for it is being withheld from you.  For reasons that we may want to speculate on, the news media have made an overt decision to avert your eyes away from the stone cold reality that a spectrum of young black men and women, motivated by race, rage, or entertainment, are increasingly committing crimes against life and property by the medium of flash mob violence.

Explaining the Inexplicable.  Almost daily on internet news agencies is some lurid story of a shooting, flash-mobbing, or beating that unfortunately involves a racial motif. [...] Yet such information is usually implicit rather than overt.  The paper or news agency that reports the crime either provides no overtly physical description of the suspects, or offers almost every detail of their appearances (sometimes even artists' renditions!) except for their race.

Michigan Avenue warning: Teens allegedly planning disturbance.  Chicago police have warned businesses to be on alert for a potential problem on Michigan Avenue Saturday [3/2/2013].  Authorities have learned a large group of teenagers may gather tomorrow to participate in what's described as "disruptive behavior".

Obama's America — Mall Warnings.  Now, does anyone else think it's pathetic, sad, and more than a little bit ridiculous that American citizens have to be warned to be on alert for roving bands of teens bent on destruction and mayhem? [...] And the fact that this Department is calling it "disruptive behavior" instead of organized looting, planned batteries and mindless property damage is truly stupid to the n-th degree.

Cleanup in aisle 1: Teen's 'mourners' trash Brooklyn shops.  A vigil for a teenager fatally shot by cops turned into a riot in Brooklyn last night [3/11/2013], as a mob of outraged thugs ransacked stores, broke car windows and assaulted residents in East Flatbush.  The chaos erupted after about 200 people gathered to mourn 16-year-old Kimani "Kiki" Gray, a reputed Bloods gang member who was shot after pulling a gun on police Saturday.

100 teenagers 'riot' on the streets following vigil of 16-year-old.  An orderly protest over the death of an armed 16-year-old turned into a riot in Brooklyn tonight after young people started lashing out at NYPD officers.  Between 60 and 100 rioters gathered around Church and Snyder Ave. in East Flatbush and threw bottles and other debris at police, witnesses said, following a vigil for Kimani Gray, 16, who was shot dead by two plainclothes officers over the weekend.

Enraged protesters battle cops in Brooklyn streets during third night of rioting.  As fights between cops and angry teens erupted in East Flatbush, 46 were arrested Wednesday night [3/13/2013].  Police struggled to control a furious crowd that broke away from a planned peaceful vigil.

Brooklyn Neighborhood Is 'A Powder Keg' After Teen Killed By Police.  [Scroll down]  The witness said the teenagers suddenly took off, fanning through streets and side streets, followed by the sound of glass breaking and metal store-front gates being pulled down.  Protesters began throwing bricks and bottles while cops began pepper-spraying and arresting.  By the end an officer's face and the window of a police van had been hit with bricks, and 46 people had been arrested.

New York gangs use Easter Sunday as a 'day of initiation' to attack people and businesses'.  New York police have stepped up patrols in the center of Manhattan today over fears of gang violence over the Easter weekend.  Times Square and Midtown have seen a growing trend for crime on Easter Day with gangs seemingly using it as a day of 'initiation'.

Whites attacked by black mob for walking white.  When a black mob attacked two reporters in Norfolk, Va., last year, the editor of the Virginian-Pilot newspaper said it was just a "street altercation" and he had no proof of racial motivation.  But even the most diehard denier of the epidemic of black mob violence around the country will find this case difficult to explain away:  Three white men in Georgia were allegedly robbed and assaulted and almost killed in April by a group of black people, all because of the color of their skin.  At least that is what the victims told the local sheriff.

Black Mob Violence Rocks Virginia Beach.  Reporters at all the local media in Virginia Beach had trouble describing what happened over the weekend when 40,000 black people descended on their town for a party.  Their audiences, however, did not.  Daniel Johnson was one of dozens of people who had no trouble describing the lawbreakers and the chaos, danger, thefts, violence and lawlessness they brought to Virginia Beach as part of College Beach Week 2013.  A time when black students could "blow off some steam" before final exams.  The readers and viewers offered eyewitness accounts that local media could not, or would not, present.

325 calls to VB 911 this weekend.  Virginia Beach Police confirm they received 325 calls for service to the Oceanfront this past weekend; a weekend that included several violent crimes.  City officials are speaking out about that violence during a college event.

A 100 proof case of racial violence in Georgia.  Reporters say racial violence does not exist unless the perpetrators issue a press release or confess to a reporter or blab to the police.  Which is what happened down in Georgia.

Euphemism alert!  [Scroll down]  I don't fault [Eric] Litz for never mentioning any particular racial group.  He probably wants to keep his job, his friends, his social contacts, and avoid the deadly label of racist.  So he writes in code. [...] There is not one mention of race in the piece, even though that clearly is the heart of the story.  The code word "urban" is understood by at least 90% of the adult population to mean black in this context.  Nobody is fooled by this obligatory dance with the truth.  It is all really quite laughable, this walking on eggshells.  It puts the lie to any claim that mainstream journalism is about telling the truth.  The dishonesty about social pathologies only makes them worse.

Judge bars racially charged protests from private property.  Jason Gosselin, a lawyer for One Liberty Place, sued the group Tuesday and asked [Judge Ellen] Ceisler to bar it from continuing its assemblies.  The demonstrations featured about a half-dozen men with thick beards, dressed in robes and using bullhorns to shout at pedestrians.  Among their rants, the suit said, were these:  "The white man is the devil," and "A woman need to shut her ... mouth."

Happy holiday! Let the violence begin.  While locals fled in anticipation of the annual celebration of violence and chaos during Black Beach Week over the Memorial Day holiday in Miami Beach, large-scale black mob violence erupted in Jacksonville, Rochester, West Bloomfield, and Baltimore.  A lot of it on video.

'Beach week' draws black crowd — and violence.  Reporters with all the local media had trouble describing what happened over the weekend when 40,000 black people descended on Virginia Beach for a party.  Their audiences, however, did not.

An Epidemic of Black Mob Violence.  Racial violence is back.  Along with racial lawlessness and even riots.  You didn't hear about it?  The Midwest state fair with a "Beat Whitey Night?"  Or the Black Beach Week that turns a town into "living hell?"  Or the school principal who blamed Asian students for being racist after suffering years of abuse?  The eleven episodes of racial violence on the Fourth of July 2012?  Some involving more than 1000 black people?  These criminal episodes go by different names:  Flash mobs, flash robs, black on white crime, or as one social worker put it:  Kids just "blowing off steam."  Anything except what they are:  Racial violence.

'Bash mobs' sweep through Southern California.  Organized "bash mob" crime rampages of roving groups attacking innocent people and businesses have been striking cities around the United States.  Law enforcement agencies in Southern California have reported few similar problems — until now.  In the last several days, there have been several reports of such group crime waves in South L.A., Hollywood, San Bernardino and Victorville.  Long Beach police are bracing for another one Friday [7/19/2013].

Arrests in San Bernardino; 'Bash Mob' in Long Beach.  Police say a mob of young people smashed windows and threw rocks and bottles in San Bernardino, resulting in at least six arrests.  Police are trying to determine whether Thursday night's [7/18/2013] civil unrest was arranged through social media contacts and whether it was sparked by the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin.

Racial Unrest and the 'Duty to Retreat'.  In response to the second degree murder acquittal of George Zimmerman, pro-Trayvon Martin supporters are expressing their displeasure with the verdict by storming shopping malls and pilfering drive-in markets.  The point of the "tear up the city" rallies currently taking place across America is to loudly proclaim that an innocent teenager died because he had a run-in with a trigger-happy racist itching to kill a black boy.  In honor of Trayvon, bands of whipped-up teens are "running in and out of traffic, knocking people over on the sidewalks and snatching their belongings."

Video: 'Flash mob' robbery at DC convenience store.  "It was crazy.  Beyond our control," says the manager of the King Convenience store in the 1500 block of U Street in Southeast D.C.  He says a flash mob of teens stole candy, soda and other items from his store Saturday night.

The Editor says...
The article above includes no suspect descriptions or names of those arrested.  If the rioters had been white guys named Billy and Steve and Seth and Larry, that aspect would have been made abundantly clear in the article's first sentence.  So it's safe to assume that everyone involved was black.

Police officers sent to break up raucous party pelted with rocks, bricks and bottles.  The pandemonium of between 150 and 300 people behaving in a riotous manner took every Trenton police officer and state trooper working in the city plus Transit police, a Ewing police unit and State Police reinforcements from Hamilton barracks 15 minutes to bring under control, said Lt. Mark Kieffer, a police spokesman.

This happened in Gary, Indiana, and the newspaper offered no description of the suspects, so it is safe to surmise that the suspects were all black.  Prove me wrong.

Black Mob Violence in the Liberal City of Portland.  Portland is in the middle of a nasty bout of black mob violence.  This time directed at bicyclists.  But Tim Oberlander does not want us to know. [...] Oberlander is a news editor at KGW TV in Portland.  His city is under attack from black mob violence centered around Martin Luther King Boulevard.  This mob has been attacking bike riders, housewives, students, seniors, you name it.  These attacks are part of a long — but quiet — history of racial violence in a liberal enclave that prides itself on racial tolerance and harmony.  But you would never know it from Oberlander.

The Editor says...
Every big city has a Martin Luther King Boulevard, and as far as I know, they are all in the most dangerous parts of those cities.  Why do you suppose that is?

Urban streets named for MLK still struggle.  A walk down the 6-mile city street named for the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. yields plenty of images that would surely unsettle the civil rights leader:  shuttered storefronts, open-air drug markets and a glut of pawn shops, quickie check-cashing providers and liquor stores.

Black Mob Violence and Denial.  For those who have not picked up a ball for a while, a visit to your local alley in the daytime is like stepping back in time.  Same lanes.  Same beat up shoes.  Same scruffed up balls.  But weekend nights, many bowling alleys — and roller skating rinks too — shed their white, lower middle class trappings and are transformed into gleaming centers of hip-hop, with the latest and greatest in lights, sounds, fashion, booze and drugs.  All topped off with frequent large-scale, black mob violence.

The Editor says...
In news reports of this sort, the perpetrators are called youths, kids, teens, and every descriptor in the English language except black.  And it is well known to be "an annual practice," so why didn't the police have fire hoses, rubber bullets and aggressive dogs ready for this riot?  That may sound harsh, but the treatment has to match the disease.

Fair restricts free youth tickets after 'wilding'.  The Florida State Fair, reeling from a rampage involving hundreds of youths on opening night, announced late Tuesday [2/11/2014] it is taking steps to curb such outbreaks by requiring that any minor presenting a free entry ticket after 7 p.m. be accompanied by an adult. [...] Most of the chaos was blamed on black youths, law enforcement officials and others said.

The Editor says...
"Black" first appears in the 17th paragraph.  And even then, the newspaper lets a little pressure escape by saying most of the chaos was the fault of "black youths," leaving open the unlikely possibility that others were involved as well.  But in the opening paragraph one major root of this problem was revealed:  Free admission to the fair.  What the kids don't pay for, they do not value.  Let them pay the full price of admission like everyone else.

July Fourth Weekend May Bring More Black Violence.  Take Miami Beach.  Its Memorial Day holiday "Urban Beach Week," aka "Hip-Hop Weekend" or Black Beach Weekend, has come to mean anarchy in the city, and this "tradition" has been going on for ten years.  Up to 300,000 black "hip-hop" fans, many intent on wreaking havoc, descend upon a city with fewer than 90,000 residents, only four percent of whom are black.  The fans assault and intimidate people, block traffic, blast music 24/7, steal food and drink, trash restaurants, urinate on police vans, and fondle every woman who tries to walk down the street.

The crashed pool party in McKinney, Texas, June 5, 2015

Introduction by The Editor:
In this case, both sides are at fault:  One one side, there was a flash mob of black troublemakers, jumping over the fence into a private pool party, and (in at least one case) fighting in the street.  On the other side, the police department showed up to take charge, and (in the inevitably viral video) wrestled a girl in a bikini down to the ground, as if she might be a threat to the body-armored officers if allowed to stand.

Teen Pinned Down At McKinney Pool Party In 2015 Sues Former Officer, City For $5 Million.  The teenage girl who was wrestled and pinned to the ground by a former McKinney police officer at a rowdy pool party in June 2015 has filed a lawsuit against him, the police department and the city for $5 million in damages.  In a complaint filed last month, Dajerria Becton and her legal guardian "allege that former Officer Eric Casebolt violated the girl's constitutional rights by using excessive force and holding her without probable cause.  The family also claims that the city and the police department are to blame for her injuries for not training officers adequately," The Dallas Morning News reports.  The city denies her allegations and will "vigorously defend the recently filed lawsuit."

[...] We decided to research the real story of what took place, and we discovered how the mob began.  In addition our research reflected that Tatyana Rhodes and her mother, LaShana Burks, were facing a very real possibility of civil lawsuits by the Home Owners Association within Craig Ranch.

Celebrity Attorney Gloria Allred Is Involved in the McKinney Pool Party Story Now.  In the weeks since the McKinney Pool Party incident on June 5, in which a white officer pulled a gun on unarmed black teenagers, a few names have surfaced:  Eric Casebolt, the McKinney police officer who was seen in the video throwing a teenage girl to the ground and brandishing his gun; Tatyana Rhodes, the 19-year-old African-American woman who hosted the party at her neighborhood's pool; and Tracey Carver-Allbritton, the adult white woman who, witnesses at the party have claimed, hurled racial slurs at the teenagers before the police arrived.

McKinney pool party organizer poses in bikinis to 'jumpstart' a 'modeling career' off the situation.  Tatyana Rhodes, the organizer of the McKinney pool party that ended in a viral video and a high-profile resignation of a police officer, is doing her best to create a positive out of the negative situation by posing in a series of sultry photos.  Earlier this month, Rhodes' pool party was cut short when a fight broke out and a McKinney police officer was caught on video slamming a bikini-clad teen into the ground with his knee in her back and then proceeded to chase other party-goers with a gun.

What the media still won't report about minorities and pools.  What exactly were the party organizers, 20 year-old Tatiana Rhodes and her mother thinking when they sent out online invites to a free Dime Piece Pool Party?  Dime piece is urban lingo for a beautiful, hot girl.  They had been promoting it for over a month in social media yet the pool belonged to a gated community which had strict rules about reserving parties which limited guests to 20.  Neither Tatiana nor her mother applied for permission for this "pool party".  The party escalated into a free-for-all brawl.

Targeted Pool Party Victim Fights Back — Hires Gloria Allred To Clear Her Name.  Tracey Carver, a white woman seen on video in a fight at the McKinney pool party that fueled a national debate about race, spoke at a press conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday to deny accusations that she said racists slurs.  In a statement forwarded to The Dallas Morning News, Carver said that she was trying to defuse a fight between her friend and a young woman who pulled the friend's hair.  The McKinney woman noted she had to relocate to California because of threats against her and her family.

Crowdrise and GoFundMe Donation Sites Deny Use for Officer Casebolt — Permit Use By Swimming Pool Activist Marvin Bakari.  We reported several days ago that Marvin Bakari was fundraising off the controversy at the McKinney "Craig Ranch" pool fiasco.  Marvin Bakari is the uncle of Dajerria Becton (15) and the father of Jahda Bakari (13), the "DimePieceCookout" girls.  The crowd funding site that Bakari chose to raise money for his racial grievances was/is "CrowdRise.Com".  Bakari set up the donation fund, then quickly shut it down when we exposed the real motive of both his efforts and the party itself.

Jahda and Marvin Bakari — The Activism Behind The McKinney Pool Party Narrative.  In a video interview, following the chaos of the Craig Ranch pool party, Mr. Marvin Bakari and his 13-year-old daughter Jahda Bakari took to the airwaves to make a very specific series of claims.  If you were to follow the construct of the racial narrative espoused by the activists around the Craig Ranch incident, you will find the media delivered "RACISM" story originates specifically from Marvin Bakari and his daughter Jahda.  No-one claimed any racial tones to the events until Marvin Bakari stepped forward claiming racism.

'I'm the real victim here'.  The ex-cop who was captured on video forcibly detaining a bikini-clad screaming schoolgirl says he has been caught up in an anti-police campaign which has nothing to do with him.  Eric Casebolt is in hiding, fearing for his life, as his police department has received more than 27,000 calls and emails from around the world, many of them messages of hate and containing threats.

New Black Panthers, Nation of Islam Arrive in McKinney to Keep the Peace.  The word on social media is that members of the New Black Panther Party and the Nation of Islam have arrived in McKinney, Texas, the site of a videotaped incident last week in which a white police officer is seen manhandling a black teenage girl at a pool party that apparently attracted what one witness called "a large, aggressive crowd" to participate in protests against the police.

Benet Embry, black radio host: 'My own people' threatening to kill me over McKinney comments.  Benét Embry, a black radio host who lives in the McKinney, Texas, community where a pool party went awry Friday [6/5/2015], says he is facing a wave of death threats from his "own people" after he said on television that he doesn't believe the incident was about race.

Texas woman suspended from job after allegedly starting controversial McKinney pool fight.  A California-based company has placed a Texas woman on administrative leave for her part in a controversial pool incident in McKinney that went viral after footage surfaced of a police officer pinning down a 15-year-old black girl.  The woman — identified as Tracey Carver-Allbritton by Dallas Communities Organizing for Change — allegedly made racial remarks that sparked a fight that led to police being called, shown in a video uploaded to YouTube.

So, This "Texas Pool Party" Story Seems to be Premised on, Get This, a Huge Lie.  Racism and police violence!  Yay!  A new distraction to be outraged about!  Here's he real story — narrated by a black resident of the neighborhood.

The 'Larger Truth' About Eric Casebolt and the McKinney Pool Party.  Eric Casebolt, the police officer who was filmed tackling a teenage girl at a McKinney, Texas pool party and drawing his weapon on bystanders, has resigned.  That may protect him from disciplinary action, and perhaps keep his personnel file clean enough to apply for another law enforcement job elsewhere.  Critics are still calling for a criminal prosecution.  More investigation is needed, but not for that reason.  Rather, the McKinney case points to the broader "flash mob" problem.

Brawling, 'racist slurs,' profane rap music and gatecrashers: What really happened at Texas invite-only pool party.  More than 100 teenagers had already gatecrashed the private pool party in McKinney, outside Dallas, when violence erupted.  They had received the invitation on social media and the numbers who arrived from across the city rapidly filled up the area, where local residents had been enjoying the sunshine by the pool with their children.

McKinney Pool Party Organizer, Tatyana Rhodes, Lawyers Up — Likely Trying To Avoid Civil Liability.  Tatyana Rhodes and her mother are facing a very real possibility of civil lawsuits by the Home Owners Association within Craig Ranch for an unapproved and unauthorized event that turned into a mob, and has cost the community thousands.  Watch this CNN interview with Tatyana who is now lawyered up.  Her attorney is Emmanuel Obi, and she appeared with Jahda Bakari (13) one of Tatyana's "Dime Girls".  Notice how Tatyana now tries desperately to avoid admitting that her promotional activity is what led to hundreds of party-goers.

The Full Story of The McKinney Texas, Pool Mob.  The woman who organized the event in McKinney, Texas is named Tatiana Rhodes (or Tatyana Rhodes).  She is approximately 19-years-old; however, she retains a fake id and has began scrubbing most of her social media accounts, so her exact age is undetermined.  Update:  confirmed profile DOB 04/02/1995, so Tatiana Rhodes is 20.  Tatiana had been promoting a party via twitter under the hashtag name "Dime Piece Cookout" for approximately a month.  She planned the event at a sub-division called "Craig Ranch" in McKinney Texas. [...] Neither Tatiana Rhodes nor her mother sought permission to use the pool or clubhouse area as part of the event.  However, Tatiana hired a DJ and promoted the event to include a pool party.

Video Emerges of Violence at 'Innocent Pool Party' in McKinney, Texas.  Left media is ablaze with articles condemning the police response to a pool party at a McKinney, Texas, subdivision.  Now a video is emerging showing why police were called to the scene to begin with — violence.  Residents in a McKinney subdivision were hosting an end-of-school party in their private community pool.  Many teens who were not residents of the subdivision began showing up.  Some had been invited by residents, some had not.  An ad for the event had been placed on social media sites.

The great McKinney, Texas Rorschach inkblot test.  Cell phone video of a suburban Dallas cop pinning a bikini-clad black teenager with his knee on her back and drawing a gun on a crowd of black teens has become the latest cause of the race grievance industry.  Last night [6/8/2015] "hundreds" of people peacefully demonstrated in that town, and local "civil rights leaders" are demanding a Justice Department investigation.

McKinney: Of Pool Parties, Police Brutality, and Institutional Racism.  Was the police response to the pool party incident in McKinney, Texas, a clear case of law enforcement overreacting — once again — to a trivial dispute, or a necessary response to the antics of delinquent teenagers?  Did racial animus play a role, as one bystander claims, or were the black kids the ones who were misbehaving, as a neighborhood resident claims?  The video evidence and eyewitness testimony suggests the former (although the latter may possess miniscule kernel of truth).  Police responded to a fight that had broken out between a girl and a mother.  A video of the encounter establishes that the fight did indeed take place, but it only involved a couple people — not the large swath of teenagers who were later detained by officers.

McKinney officer resigns due to video of pulling gun on teens.  McKinney Police Cpl. Eric Casebolt has resigned after video showed him pushing a 15-year-old girl in a swimsuit to the ground and pointing his firearm at other teens.  Casebolt's lawyer informed FOX4 of Casebolt's decision on Tuesday afternoon [6/9/2015].  McKinney Police Chief Greg Conley said Casebolt's actions were "indefensible" during a Tuesday evening news conference.

Activists Want Black Host Who Blamed Teens For McKinney Pool Fight Fired.  Dozens of activists are calling on a Dallas-based video broadcast station to fire a black talk show host for blaming a group of mostly black teenagers for starting a fracas at a private swimming pool in McKinney, Tex. on Friday [6/5/2015]. [...] The outrage began with a seven-and-a-half minute video released over the weekend showing McKinney police officer Eric Casebolt throwing a 15-year-old black girl on the ground and pulling out his gun as he tried to detain a group of teenagers allegedly involved in the fracas.



The 2016 race riots in Charlotte, North Carolina

Charlotte Burning.  With Election Day only weeks away, it is possible the chaos in the Tarheel State is part of a left-wing get-out-the-vote effort to foment unrest in the state's black communities.  Remember that Democrat Barack Obama narrowly won the vitally important battleground state in 2008 and narrowly lost it in 2012.  It is entirely possible that the whole exercise in civil unrest was engineered or at least exacerbated by professional left-wingers trying to win the state for Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.  Riots, of course, are the stock in trade of radical speculator George Soros, the preeminent funder of the Left who has given generously to Black Lives Matter.

When Narratives Implode:  Gun Recovered from Keith Lamont Scott Was Reported Stolen.  Nice of these lunatics to try and torch the city down in pursuit of a fraudulent narrative. [...] Undeterred by evidence and facts, the laughingstocks at the NAACP released their list of demands Monday, blissfully unaware of the latest development.

Keith Scott WAS carrying a stolen gun, police say — and his wife filed for a restraining order against him saying he was armed, violent and had threatened to kill her.  Keith Scott was carrying a stolen gun when he was shot and killed during a confrontation with police in Charlotte, North Carolina, authorities have said.  The gun was reported stolen after a breaking and entering, according to the police.  A breaking and entering suspect told agents at the bureau of alcohol, tobacco, firearms and explosives that he had sold the gun to Scott, ABC 11 reported Monday.  He is now in custody.  Scott's wife Rakeyia, who filmed her husband's killing on Tuesday, had filed for a restraining order against him and had told authorities he carried a gun, hit her as well as one of her children and had threatened to kill her, records have shown.

Man shot by cops in Charlotte bought gun from burglar: report.  The man shot dead by cops in Charlotte was in possession of a gun he had bought from a burglar who stole it during a residential burglary, according to a report.  The burglar admitted he sold the gun to Keith Lamont Scott, 43, who was shot Sept. 20 by a Charlotte-Mecklenburg cop when officers noticed him with marijuana while they were serving a warrant on someone, sources told WBTV.  Authorities have not released information about the alleged burglar.  Meanwhile, it emerged that Scott's wife, Rakeyia, filed for a restraining order against him last year, saying in October that authorities should consider him a potential threat because he carried a 9mm handgun, The Charlotte Observer reported.

Dear Rioters:  Your Boy Was Carrying A Stolen Gun And His Wife Filed This Against Him.  That gun his wife says he doesn't own?  It showed up in the paperwork when she filed a restraining order against her husband.  Who had a loaded gun on him when he was shot.  The guy who's being held up as Charlotte's BLM martyr?  Not such a sweet guy.

He carries a Glock

List of people arrested during Charlotte riots.  Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police arrested at least 72 people over six days of riots and protests in Charlotte following the fatal police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott.  The latest round of arrests totaled 15 people from Saturday into Sunday night's protest in Uptown.  Eleven of the people arrested were from Charlotte.  Four of the individuals were from out of town.  Charges ranged from Breaking and Entering, carrying a concealed weapon, Extra Ordinary Event violations and Urinating in Public.

Charlotte Shooting Facts Support the Police.  The Charlotte rioters didn't know whether the controversial police shooting of Keith Scott was justified or not, and didn't care.  They worked their mayhem — trashing businesses and injuring cops, with one protester killed in the disorder — before anything meaningful could be ascertained about the case except that the cops said Scott had a gun and his family said he didn't.  Charlotte is the latest episode in the evidence-free Black Lives Matter movement that periodically erupts in violence after officer-involved shootings.  The movement is beholden to a narrative of systematic police racism to which every case is made to conform, regardless of the facts or logic.

The Mark of Soros:  Charlotte, North Carolina.  [Scroll down]  In Charlotte they have regularly referred to the thugs as "protestors" and failed to fully publicize how awful their behavior has been.  Here are some examples you won't see on your news programs:  Rioters attacked an elderly homeless man and beat a helpless man in parking garage and pulled off and stole his pants to further humiliate him.  Reports are in of stealing and looting on a significantly large scale, hijacking cars and trucks and terrifying their occupants, blocking streets and threatening to spread the mayhem outside the city limits.  BLM would in a lawful society be subject to criminal racketeering and conspiracy charges[.]

If Keith Lamont Scott Had Followed Gun Laws, Would He Still Be Alive?  The black man shot and killed by a black police officer in Charlotte, N.C. Tuesday was a felon who had gone to prison for seven years, making it illegal for him to possess a firearm.  According to records from Bexar County, Texas, Keith Lamont Scott was convicted of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in July 2005 and sentenced to seven years in prison.  In relation to that case, he was charged and found guilty of evading arrest.  He was also charged with unlawfully carrying a weapon, reckless driving, and assaulting his wife, but these charges were later dismissed.

Wife of Charlotte's Keith Scott Filed Restraining Order Citing Violence and Gun Use in 2015.  And so a week later the media begins to look into the troubled back story of Keith Lamont Scott, the man killed by police during a highly publicized armed encounter in Charlotte North Carolina which led to four days of riots and social unrest.

Oops: Convicted felon Keith Scott was carrying an illegal firearm while smoking pot in public.  We were told time and time again that Keith Scott, killed by Charlotte Police Officers last week, did not have a firearm.  His wife even said it on the video she released.  Um, yeah, about that [...]

Charlotte Officials to Rioters — Anyone Caught Looting Will Have Welfare and Food Stamps Revoked For Life.  According to the local affiliate WBTC, the punishment also applies to minors who might be participating in the ongoing melee.  Parents of underage individuals who are captured while engaging in criminal activities related to the rioting will be held fully accountable, and could risk losing state benefits, as well as the custody of their child. [...] The announcement was made shortly after hundreds of national guardsmen and law enforcement officers took to the streets intent on restoring calm to the city.

Charlotte Rioters Have New List Of Demands, Includes Reparations.  Charlotte rioters recently issued a list of demands over the death of Keith Lamont Scott.  According to the list, rioters called for the de-funding of the police department; the money used for the police department should be re-allocated to jobs programs, affordable housing and transportation.  They want reparations for Scott's family, families of those who have been killed by police and for those affected by "police violence."  Rioters also demanded that police release all those who have been arrested during the Charlotte riots with all charges dropped.

Wife of Keith Scott Releases Video Showing Gun on Ground After Charlotte Shooting — DNA and Fingerprints Belong to Scott.  Police released information earlier today that Keith Scott's fingerprints and DNA were on the hand gun, seen in eye witness reports and retrieved from the shooting.  This news apparently spurred the family of Keith Scott to attempt recovery of their narrative.

Charlotte Rioters Loot a Store, Destroy a Cash Register, Steal Shoes.  Videos from the riots Wednesday night in Charlotte show protesters looting a souvenir store, destroying a cash register, and stealing shoes out of a car.  The first video shows protesters loot a souvenir store in Charlotte.

Keith Scott, killed by Charlotte police, had troubled history in San Antonio.  Keith Lamont Scott, the man whose fatal shooting by Charlotte, North Carolina police this week sparked unrest in that city and protests nationwide, told a state district judge in Bexar County in 2005 that his family had "suffered from a tremendous amount of racism and hate crimes," court documents say.  Scott made the statement in a motion that unsuccessfully argued for a reduction to his seven-year sentence for aggravated assault, a second-degree felony to which he had pleaded no contest under an agreement with prosecutors that reduced the charge stemming from the Sept. 17, 2002 incident from a first-degree felony.

CMPD said Keith Lamont Scott had a gun.  Was that reason enough to order him to drop it?  Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police say that Keith Lamont Scott was holding a handgun — not a book — moments before he was shot and killed by an officer Tuesday afternoon [9/20/2016].  But one expert questions whether CMPD was justified in its initial interaction with Scott, even based on the police's own version of events.  In a statement released Wednesday morning, the city said that officers had come to the Village at College Downs apartment complex to serve an outstanding warrant.  As they entered the complex, the police noticed Keith Lamont Scott, who was not the person they were trying to serve the warrant.

Stunning Facts Regarding the Conflagration in Charlotte:
  [#1] There's a Black President
  [#2] There's a Black Congressman
  [#3] There's a Black Mayor
  [#4] There's a Black District Attorney
  [#5] There's a Black Chief of Police
  [#6] The officer involved in the shooting was Black
  [#7] The  victim  perp was Black
So whose fault is it when the perp gets taken out?

This is what BLM is protesting
The Charlotte Riots:  What They Are Not Telling You.  As America awaits to see if Charlotte will burn for the third consecutive night, Paul Joseph Watson points out something troubling:  thugs burned down a city because a black cop shot someone, yet meanwhile the mainstream media spun it, or at least tried, as as "peaceful protest."  There is just one problem:  violent criminals looting, attacking bystanders, attacking journalists, setting fires, smashing up cars, smashing up businesses and shooting at each other is not a "peaceful protest." [...] It's a violent, unjustified riot by criminals and thugs.  The question is why is the media giving it legitimacy by still referring to it as a protest?


Charlotte Police Officer Ran Over By Protesters, Crowd Cheers.  Police used tear gas to disperse a violent riot Tuesday [9/20/2016] that started as a result of police fatally shooting 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott.  12 law enforcement officers were injured during the protest.  Protesters shut down highway I-85 near UNC Charlotte, threw bricks and looted.  Raw video shows a protester running over a police over with a car as the crowd cheers.  [Video clip]

Police announce arrest in shooting death at Charlotte riot.  Charlotte police announced the arrest of a suspect in Wednesday's fatal shooting of a protester, a killing witnesses initially insisted was carried out by police.  Rayquan Borum, 21, was charged Friday morning in shooting death of Justin Carr, who died a day after being shot during protests in Trade Street, Charlotte-Mecklenberg Police Chief Kerr Putney said.  Putney said surveillance footage supplied by buildings in the area helped identify the suspect.  The shooting occurred Wednesday night [9/21/2016], and Charlotte police initially said the man had died, although he survived on life support until Thursday.  Witnesses gave conflicting accounts about who shot him, with some insisting they saw police gun him down with rubber bullets, while others said he was killed by a fellow protester.

The Madness of Crowds.  A policeman shooting a local citizen sparked the turmoil.  We watch the repackaged rerun even though it played past limited engagements in Dallas, Ferguson, Baltimore, and points beyond to negative reviews.  The Queen City protesters pummeling people and property lack truth in advertising.  Touting themselves as "peaceful protesters" desirous of "social justice," the mob put a man on life support, stripped a pale face of his pants and beat him in a parking garage, and viciously kicked an aged, homeless white man to the ground.  In the latter two cases, the rioters laughed riotously at the barbaric behavior.  This, too, inevitably spins into the "hate that hate produced" or some other claptrap to avoid flipping the script.  But the audience plainly sees the made-for-TV victims as the real-life villains.

DOJ Sends Same Unit to Charlotte That Helped Ferguson, Baltimore Rioters Organize.  In moments of social unrest featuring violence and crime, one would expect the only proper role of the taxpayer-funded federal government is to quash the disturbance.  However, a unit of progressive attorneys within the Department of Justice has been at the center of every significant riot during the Obama administration, and this unit — the Community Relations Service, or CRS — was not at those scenes to protect the safety of all citizens.  In fact, the CRS was caught encouraging the chaos.  Not only did CRS side only with the protesters and not with law enforcement, they actively facilitated the protests, even as they were turning violent.  Additionally, this same unit has a serious fraud and corruption problem.

After Charlotte shooting, press downplays a key fact:  The officer's race downplays a key fact:  The officer's race.  The riot in Charlotte, and the fatal shooting of Keith Scott that sparked the violence, was the lead story in yesterday's New York Times.  But a crucial fact was buried.  Not until the 30th paragraph were readers told that "Brentley Vinson, the officer who the police say shot Mr. Scott, is black, as is the police chief."  The Washington Post took a similar approach with its lead story, waiting until the 31st paragraph to report that "authorities said the officer who shot Scott is black."

America, the rioting in Charlotte is Saul Alinsky 101.  Charlotte, North Carolina is under a state of emergency after another night of violence.  An angry mob prowled the streets like animals hunting prey — brutally attacking police, civilians and news reporters.  They literally tried to stuff an unconscious photographer into a burning trash can, according to eyewitness accounts.  One civilian was gunned down in the melee.

Disturbing videos show violence during Charlotte protests.  Ugly scenes emerged from Wednesday night's rioting in Charlotte, including Twitter video of a white man being beaten and dragged by a mob, and the brother of the black man whose death in a police shooting touched off protests telling media that all white people are "devils."

North Carolina congressman says Charlotte protesters 'hate white people'.  [Scroll down]  In the video posted online Thursday [9/22/2016], [U.S. Rep. Robert] Pittenger responded:  "The grievance in their mind is — the animus, the anger — they hate white people because white people are successful and they're not."

One shot as hundreds protest for second night in Charlotte.  One person is on life support after being shot during a second night of protests in Charlotte as North Carolina's governor declared a state of emergency.  The city said the gunshot was fired by one civilian at another, not by police.  An officer is said to have also been injured in the demonstration and Charlotte Police Chief Kerr Putney described the protest as "very aggressive".  "We're trying to disperse the crowd.  We've been very patient, but now they've become very aggressive, throwing bottles and so forth, at my officers, so it's time for us now to restore order."

Protesters start overnight fires on I-85, loot local Walmart.  Protesters blocked part of I-85 and looted a Walmart in north Charlotte after a black man was shot and killed by a CMPD officer Tuesday.  All lanes of Interstate 85 were reopened early Wednesday morning after protesters blocked the highway and started fires.  Protesters looted tractor-trailers and removed the contents to start two fired on I-85 before police forced them off the highway.

A man is on life support after being shot in the head by a civilian in violent protests in Charlotte over fatal police shooting of a 'disabled' black man.  National Guard troops have arrived in Charlotte after a protest turned violent on Wednesday night.  A state of emergency has been declared in response to the chaos that has taken over the North Carolina city, two days after a father-of-seven was shot dead by a police officer.  One of the demonstrators was shot in the head outside the Omni Hotel and is fighting for his life.  At least three other protesters and four police officers were also taken to hospital after they were injured in the riot.  A cameraman and reporter for WCNC-TV were also attacked while a CNN correspondent was body-slammed during a live broadcast.

Eye Witness Photographs Show Keith Scott Handgun During Charlotte Police Shooting.  A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer shot and killed an armed man named Keith Scott at an apartment complex Tuesday, while executing an arrest warrant.  Angry street protests began almost immediately.  CMPD Chief Kerr Putney reiterated Wednesday morning that Keith Scott was armed when he approached officers in University City Tuesday.  Putney said that officers gave repeated verbal commands for Scott to drop his handgun.  He said Scott posed a threat to the officers.

Charlotte Police Chief:  Officers Found Handgun, Not A Book At Keith Lamont Scott Shooting Scene.  Charlotte-Mecklenburg police Chief Kerr Putney confirms that police investigators did not find a book at the scene of the police shooting of Keith Lamont Scott.  After Scott was shot and killed, members of his family and protesters insisted that he had a book in the vehicle, not a handgun as police officers reported.  Protests and riots fueled by the alternate narrative rocked the city.  Rioters trashed multiple police vehicles, blocked Interstate 85, looted a tractor trailer, set items on fire, and injured 16 police officers, according to Putney.

How does looting a Walmart, burning a truck advance your cause?  It was a night of terror in Charlotte, North Carolina.  A rioting mob shut down Interstate 85 and attacked terrified motorists.  A horrified female truck driver told a reporter thugs had boarded the truck and were stealing the cargo and setting it ablaze.  Looters pillaged and plundered a Wal-Mart.  More than a dozen police officers were injured — along with an untold number of civilians and at least three journalists.  The mayhem started earlier in the day after a black police officer shot and killed an armed black man.  The dead man's family disputes the police department's account of what happened.  Regardless, that does not give agitators a right to engage in acts of domestic terrorism.

Eye Witness Photographs Show Keith Scott Handgun During Charlotte Police Shooting.  A Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer shot and killed an armed man named Keith Scott at an apartment complex Tuesday, while executing an arrest warrant.  Angry street protests began almost immediately.  CMPD Chief Kerr Putney reiterated Wednesday morning [9/21/2016] that Keith Scott was armed when he approached officers in University City Tuesday.  Putney said that officers gave repeated verbal commands for Scott to drop his handgun.  He said Scott posed a threat to the officers.

Slain Charlotte man had lengthy criminal record.  The friends and family of Keith Lamont Scott, the Charlotte man killed by police this week, portray him as a "family man" and "likable."  This may be true.  However, Scott also had a long police record that included gun violations.

Keith Scott shooting:  Charlotte police say they warned him to drop handgun.  Charlotte's police chief said on Wednesday that officers gave a man numerous clear warnings to drop a handgun before fatally shooting him, at a news conference following a night of clashes on the streets of the North Carolina city that left 16 officers injured.  Kerr Putney, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police chief, said officers were searching for a suspect on Tuesday [9/20/2016] when they saw 43-year-old Keith Lamont Scott exit a vehicle with a handgun, and mistook him for the wanted man.  He said the officers told Scott, who was black, to drop his gun and that he got out of the vehicle a second time still carrying the gun.

War zone in Charlotte:  White man begs for mercy as he is beaten while a reporter is nearly dragged into a fire by rioters.  Disturbing videos have emerged of protesters brutally attacking white bystanders in Charlotte as violent demonstrations continued to engulf the city, 48 hours after a black man was shot dead by police.  A man was dragged and beaten by a mob while begging for mercy, an unconscious photographer was almost tossed into a fire, and a CNN correspondent was slammed to the ground in the midst of the chaos.

Dear Media:  Please Stop Calling Violent Rioters 'Protesters'.  Watching coverage of the unrest in Charlotte, North Carolina last night, I was struck by a common trend in how the most violent acts were being covered. [...] Looting a Wal-Mart, destruction of property, attempted murder, all carried out by... "protesters." [...] I suppose you could make a convoluted argument about how the protests were against white supremacy, and capitalism and the media are agents of white supremacy, therefore attacking those institutions are acts of "protest" or whatever.  But if even violent attempted murder and destruction of property can be a "protest" so long as the motives are political, I don't see why the same can't be said of, say, a terrorist attack.

When A Book Is Not A Book, But A Gun.  As I've noted in several places, those who spent last night trashing a Walmart, shutting down I 85, throwing bricks and rocks at cars, torching buildings and vehicles, and stealing cargo from semi trucks blockaded on the interstate are by no means "protestors."  No, they are CRIMINALS.

Truck Driver Caught In Charlotte Riot Tells TV Reporter: 'They're In The Trailer'.  A truck driver whose trailer became caught in the middle of the riots in Charlotte, N.C., Tuesday [9/20/2016] tearfully described her predicament to a local news reporter as her trailer was looted.

They Are Rioting in Charlotte Because a Black Cop Fatally Shot an Armed Black Man.  The streets of an American city have erupted in violence to protest police officers doing their jobs.  This time it is in Charlotte, NC and the reason is because a cop fatally shot a black man.  Mind you, the cop was also black and the person he fatally shot was armed with a gun, but some people don't need much of an excuse to riot.  WSOC reports that an angry mob has taken over the streets of Charlotte, specifically targeting police.  As of this writing, 12 officers have been injured, including one who was hit in the face with a rock.  Police have tried to disperse the violent thugs with tear gas but it doesn't appear to have worked.



The 2016 race riots in Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Judge rules Milwaukee park at center of riots must return to normal hours.  A judge has ruled [9/4/2016] that a Milwaukee park at the center of a neighborhood where riots erupted after a police shooting last month can return to its normal hours for now.

Milwaukee.  These incidents seem to come at shorter intervals.  In characteristic confusion, in Milwaukee the mob believed that the dead man was shot in the back when the body-cam video show that he was raising a pistol toward the policeman.  Either they can't read, don't read, don't have access to the internet, or don't care.  As usual, sixty years after Brown vs. the School Board they shout in illiterate semi-English.  It isn't working.  The racial thing, I mean.  The hunting of whites, beatings of whites, calls for attacks on whites.  In the age of cell phones, the media can hide only so much.  To avoid admitting that we are seeing a racial insurgency, the media insist that the police are the problem.  They are not.  Blacks are unmistakably gripped by a powerful racial hatred of white people.

The Truth About the Milwaukee Riots.  The problem is black resentment, not police bias.  [Video clip]

Democrats Promise A Future Of Lawlessness; Coming To Your Town Soon!  In Milwaukee, Black Lives Matter activists, looters and rioters set out to hunt down and attack any and all white people.  Sherelle Smith, sister of Sylville Smith, the criminal shot down in Milwaukee, called for rioters to stop burning down their own neighborhoods and businesses and head out to the suburbs and burn them down.  "You're burning down s**t we need in our community.  Take that s**t to the suburbs!  Burn that s**t down!  We need our s**t, we need our weaves, I don't wear them but we need them.  We need our gas, We need our food.  We need this.  You all want to hurt somebody, take that # further out."  Was she arrested for inciting violence?  Nope!  As a matter of fact, CNN, immediately portrayed her as a hero in their newscast.

Milwaukee police charge 3 for looting during riot after shooting.  The criminal complaint filed Friday [8/19/2016] says the defendants told police the windows were already shattered and other people were looting the store when they went inside.

Poverty accompanies Democrats
The Worst Cities For Poverty All Have One Thing In Common.  Each of these places has been Democratic for many decades, some even longer.  And what do each of these places have in common?  That's right, they're all run by Democrats.  Big government, high taxes, lots of regulation, and plenty of welfare and poverty.  Yep, that's Democratville for ya.


Road to urban despair paved by Democrats.  Riots broke out in Milwaukee the other day, and before that in other cities, each erupting with familiar sights: fire and pain, anger and looting.  It will likely happen again in some other urban area, perhaps after a black man is killed by a police officer, whether the shooting is justified or unjustified.  Was the victim a known criminal pointing a gun at a cop?  Or not?  These are reasons, but reasons really don't matter now, do they?

When the Suspect Is an Armed Black Man — and the Cop Is Black.  After the death of a young black man by a Milwaukee police officer, riots, looting and fires followed.  In one instance, as a gas station burned, people watching chanted, "Black power!"  Local news reported that the 23-yearold suspect was not only armed but that he also defied orders to drop his gun.  The Milwaukee police chief refused to identify the officer involved, but did say that he was "black."  At one time, such a fact would suggest that racism and police brutality were not at play.  But as the death of Freddie Gray — a black man who died after being transported in a Baltimore police van — shows us, not necessarily.

How The Democrats Turned Milwaukee Into a Cesspool.  [Scroll down]  And indeed, wherever we look — Atlanta, Camden, Newark, St. Louis, Chicago, Flint, Detroit, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington — we see one-party cities that are crumbling testaments to the awesome power of bad ideas.  Specifically, Trump referenced "the situation right here in Milwaukee, a city run by Democrats for decade after decade," citing its high rates of homicide, joblessness, poverty, and educational failure.  But Milwaukee wasn't always like this.  It was once a prosperous metropolis with a host of thriving industries, particularly renowned for its breweries and manufacturing.  Modern-day Democrats and their leftist allies, however, snuffed out those good-ol'-days like a jackboot on a cigarette butt.  Every mayor of Milwaukee since 1960 has been a Democrat, and the one who served just prior to 1960 was Frank Paul Zeidler, an open Socialist.

What's the Matter With Wisconsin?  [S]everal hundred blacks burned automobiles and looted buildings, including a cell phone store.  A beauty salon was stripped of its hair extensions and then torched.  (This wasn't even the first riot in Milwaukee's Sherman Park neighborhood this summer.  In late June riot police had to drive off 100 youths throwing rocks.)  The dead man, Sylville Smith, was not an upstanding citizen, as his social-media presence demonstrated.  He had been arrested nine times since 2011.  He had been charged with witness intimidation but had been released due to the witness being properly intimidated.  But that didn't matter to the rioters, who identified with Smith.

Milwaukee Officer Who Shot Armed Criminal In Hiding After Death Threats.  "Protesters" have posted the name, pictures, and address of the African-American Milwaukee police officer who shot serial predator Sylville Smith (above) this past weekend in Milwaukee, causing the officer to seek shelter at an undisclosed location while Milwaukee police guard his home home against threats on his life.

Trump Vows to Restore Safety, Says Law-Abiding Black Americans Main Victims of Riots.  Donald Trump spoke about the violent riots that have plagued the country during a speech on law and order in West Bend, Wisconsin on Tuesday [8/16/2016], promising safety for all Americans and appealing to African Americans.  "Law and order must be restored... it must be restored for the sake of all, but most especially for those living in the affected communities," Trump stressed.  "The main victims of these riots are law abiding African American citizens living in these neighborhoods."  "Crime and violence is an attack on the poor and will never be accepted in a Trump administration," Trump vowed.

DOJ Pushes "Implicit Bias Training" for Local Police Officers.  [Rich] Lowry notes that Smith had a long arrest record.  It included arrests for a shooting, a robbery, carrying a concealed weapon, theft, and possession of heroin and cocaine.  He beat a shooting rap at a jury trial in 2015 when a witness recanted, allegedly after Smith intimidated him.  Yet Smith was also the victim of crime, at least according to his mother.  She says her son got his gun because he had been shot twice and robbed four times.  From all accounts, things aren't much different in Baltimore and Chicago these days.  I suspect there are plenty of other cities one could add to the list[.]

Cop who shot and killed Milwaukee man now receiving death threats.  The African-American Milwaukee police officer who shot dead a black man Saturday, touching off violent riots, has reportedly received death threats.  The police officer, whose identity was reported by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel but could not be confirmed by FoxNews.com, is reportedly a 24-year-old patrolman who went to high school with Sylville Smith, who was allegedly holding a gun and ignored orders to drop it when he was shot.  Thousands of people have circulated a photo, purportedly of the police officer, on Facebook, with some posts accompanied by threats and even his home address.  "Now y'all see his face if he's seen anywhere in the city drop him," read one post reported by the Journal Sentinel.

Black males murder five year old white girl in Milwaukee.  No national outrage.  Two black males in Milwaukee walked up to the home of a white family, in a majority black neighborhood, and unleashed a hail of gunfire.  A five year old white girl, Laylah Petersen, was murdered while sitting on her grandfather's lap.  Milwaukee police say there is no question the shooters were deliberating trying to kill people inside the house.  At least a dozen bullets were fired directly into the house.  There may have been a third person driving a getaway car.  The house was located in a census tract that is 77% black and 14% white.  The Milwaukee Sentinel and Milwaukee channel 6 have actually been trying to downplay the murder.  They are falsly reporting that it was "a stray bullet."  That directly contradicts all the evidence found by police.

Milwaukee Congresswoman:  Black Incarceration Rates Created 'Powder Keg' in City.  The first African-American woman to be elected to Congress from the state of Wisconsin said the incarceration rate of black men in her Milwaukee district has created a "powder keg" of tension in the community hit by riots over the weekend.  Milwaukee Police reported 10 arrests overnight, one report of shots fired and no new damage to cars or property.  The previous evening saw four injured officers, 14 arrests, damage to three police cars and a store with broken windows.

Why Milwaukee boiled over with violence after police shooting death.  After two nights of violent clashes between police and residents following a fatal police shooting of a young black man, Police Chief Ed Flynn stepped to the microphone late Monday night to declare a small victory.  "We've seen great improvement over yesterday," Flynn said.  The night had produced 10 arrests, but no rioting or property damage after officials instituted a 10 p.m. curfew.  "This community is not interested in doing damage to where they live," he said.  Milwaukee has become the latest U.S. city to see decades of simmering anger and frustration among black residents boil over into violence after a death at the hands of police.

Milwaukee agitators shout 'black power,' attack white drivers.  Race agitators in Milwaukee used the police shooting of an  unarmed  armed black man to burn down their city and attack white people.  Several videos show white drivers being stopped in the middle of the street and the "protesters" attempting to pull them out of their vehicles.  "They're beating every white person!" one of the agitators shouted in the video.  "They jumpin' every white person."  When the mob spotted a white driver, they attempted to block his car from passing.

Bodycam footage 'proves cop was RIGHT to shoot armed man whose death sparked Milwaukee riots because he was raising his gun'.  Milwaukee's mayor and police chief announced Monday [8/15/2016] that body cam video supports the shooting of Sylville Smith — which sparked riots across the city.  At least one person was shot as police clashed with protesters during a second night of riots after Smith, 23, was shot dead by a police officer on Saturday.  But Milwaukee Police Chief Edward A Flynn insists the footage makes it clear that the shooting was lawful.  He said that Smith was shot after he turned toward an officer and raised his gun.  Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett, speaking at a press conference on Monday, added that a still from the cop's body camera shows 'without question' Smith had a gun in his hand.

Why Milwaukee Burns.  The war on cops, ideological and sometimes lethal, may be expanding into a broader race war, in which only one side fights.  The thugs who torched businesses and police cars, assaulted cops, and shot at firemen in northwestern Milwaukee on Saturday night [8/14/2016] went after "white bitches," among other targets. [...] The Black Lives Matter-inspired assassin who murdered five police officers in Dallas in July 2016 said that he wanted to kill white people, as well as white cops.  The vitriol that officers working in urban areas now encounter on a daily basis is inflected with racism.  And if the war on cops escalates into more frequent attacks on whites and their perceived interests, the elite establishment will bear much of the blame.  For the last two years, President Barack Obama has seized every opportunity to advise blacks that they are the victims of a racist criminal justice system.  We should not be surprised when that belief, so constantly inflamed, erupts into violence.

The anti-cop movement hits a new low in Milwaukee.  Tim Pool is a fearless social-media reporter who specializes in getting close to the action.  It almost doesn't qualify as a protest or riot if Pool isn't live-streaming from the streets.  But he's pulling out of Milwaukee because it's too dangerous for white people.  In a carefully stated YouTube video, Pool described the verbal taunts and threats, as well as actual violence, directed at whites.  After an 18-year-old male was shot in the neck and extracted by Milwaukee police in an armored vehicle — Pool identifies the victim as white, although other press reports don't mention his race — he concluded he had to leave.  (For the record, Pool is half-Korean — not that rioters care).

Milwaukee Message:  "Give Me Money Or I'll Kill You".  What would you label a person who made a statement like "Give Me Money Or I'll Kill You"? That's exactly the essence of the statement that at least one rioter made in Milwaukee last weekend.  We'd call a person making such a statement a robber and a criminal for demanding our money, and we would charge him with robbery and put him in jail.  And robbery is exactly what the Milwaukee rioters were referencing when they demanded money or they would start killing more police, and would "beatdown" more white people.  The traditional welfare that the non-working underclass have gotten from Democrats the last 50 years is now considered to be chump change and will no longer satisfy their needs.  They are tired of all of the failed promises from liberal Democrats these last many decades, and now they want to be made wealthy by the party of compassion, and they want the money now!

Hillary Clinton accused of 'inflaming' violence which tore through Milwaukee after police shot young black man carrying handgun.  Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, a Republican, pointed his finger in the direction of Hillary Clinton suggesting she's 'inflaming' the situation in Milwaukee by making recent comments.  Yesterday [8/15/2016] at her Scranton, Pennsylvania rally, the Democratic nominee said there was 'urgent work to do to rebuild trust between police and communities,' pointing to the recent riots in Milwaukee, Wisconsin as an example.

CNN edits out Milwaukee victim's sister calling for violence in 'the suburbs'.  Both online and on television, CNN edited out Sherelle Smith, the sister of a black man who was killed by police in Milwaukee on Saturday, calling for rioters to take their violence "to the suburbs."  Correspondent Ana Cabrera reported Ms. Smith was "calling for peace" in a televised segment Monday [8/15/2016] on CNN Newsroom, NewsBusters reported.  The network showed a brief clip of Ms. Smith telling protesters:  "Don't bring the violence here and the ignorance here."  But CNN cut away before Ms. Smith called for rioters to "take that s--- to the suburbs."

Media coverage of Milwaukee riots takes a detour.  Have you ever heard members of the media talk about how failed cities across the country are, just-as-a-nonchalant-point-of-interest, run by Democrats?  Ever heard them make mention, you know, as a quick aside, that the mayor of Milwaukee and the city alderman for the district where rioting unfolded are both Democrats who, I presume, support a felon for president?  I didn't think so.

Police chief was surprised by violence after fatal shooting.  Following a night of violence that left half a dozen businesses in flames, the Milwaukee police chief expressed surprise at the level of unrest that erupted after the fatal shooting of a black man by a black officer.  "This was, quite frankly, unanticipated," Police Chief Edward Flynn said Monday, two days after the worst of the rioting hit the Sherman Park neighborhood on the city's economically depressed and largely black north side.  The city was calmer on Monday evening [8/15/2016] after two nights of unrest.

Communist group members go to Milwaukee to help 'revolution'.  A Chicago-based communist revolutionary group blamed by Milwaukee's police chief for stoking a second day of violence said that some of its members did go there to "support a revolution" but didn't set out to cause trouble.  Police chief Ed Flynn said members of a Chicago chapter of the Revolutionary Communist Party turned what had been a peaceful night into a tense one by leading marchers down several blocks at around 11:30 p.m.

New Black Panthers Declare War In Milwaukee.  [Scroll down]  You can't watch "Training Day" and come away with any other conclusion than it is a New Black Panther call for a revolution, beginning with a war on America's police forces.  So the Milwaukee "riot" and the Dallas attack that killed 5 police officers should be seen for what it is, and it was not an impulse-driven reaction to police shootings of African-Americans in Milwaukee, Louisiana and Minnesota, but part of a carefully choreographed wave of terrorist violence intended to influence the political outcome of this election.  Don't believe us?  The "rioters" showed up in "riot gear" ready to rumble according to reports in the UK's Daily Mail.  But let's be clear — it wouldn't matter whether Donald Trump or Jeb Bush was leading the Republican field — a summer of radical Leftist violence is coming, and it was planning, building and organizing long before Trump became the Republican nominee for President.

Milwaukee County Sheriff explains the cause of Milwaukee riots:  Failed Liberal Policies.  Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke explained on Fox Business that these riots, like we saw in Milwaukee over the weekend, are the result of "failed liberal urban policies" that have left many of these ghettos with inescapable poverty and terrible school systems:  [Video clip]

White Reporter Pulls Out Of Milwaukee Because Of Racial Threats [Video].  A freelance reporter who films protests across the U.S. says he is leaving riot-torn Milwaukee because the situation there has grown too dangerous for white people.  "For those that are perceivably white, it is not safe to be here," Tim Pool said in a short video explaining his decision to leave Milwaukee, where protests over the police shooting death of an armed black man turned violent over the weekend.

Journalist Says He's Leaving Milwaukee Because These are Race Riots.  Tim Pool, the on-the-ground journalist who runs TimCast, was in fact on the ground last night in Milwaukee during the riots.  Today [8/15/2016] he records a video saying that he is now leaving for fear of his own safety.  Pool explains that while many were looking forward to him staying and covering the riots, he said it has become unsafe for him, primarily because these riots are about race and not just a civil uprising.

'We WANT BLOOD! We cannot co-habitate with WHITE PEOPLE!' — UGLY video from Milwaukee.  A really ugly video surfaced of angry thugs threatening racial violence to police right before last night's rioting in Milwaukee. [...] They're only hurting the people they say they want to protect — the innocent and reasonable people in the same community.  Let's not generalize about the entire black community here — I've lived in a very poor, minority community among these kinds of thugs, and I hate it when the decent people are grouped in with them.  But the screaming idiots in the video ARE thugs.  They're simply assuming the cops are unjustified without caring or even knowing what the facts are.  And they're threatening violence for the stupidest reasons, and for very racist reasons.

Video: Milwaukee Rioters To Police: 'We Want Blood...We Cannot Cohabitate With White People Anymore'.  A seventeen-minute video has emerged which appears to show the beginning of the Milwaukee riots as the rioters were initially threatening police officers who were trying to keep the peace during the afternoon.  The video starts with the Black Lives Matter crowd angrily yelling at officers over the fatal shooting of Sylville Smith, a black man with a lengthy arrest record who, according to Milwaukee's Democrat Mayor Tom Barrett, had stolen the gun, which held 23 rounds in it.  Also, it turns out the cop that shot him was black.  Worth noting that in the video here, many of cops being threatened are non-whites and female.

CNN Selectively Edits Police Shooting Victim's Sister's Words to Protesters.  In a classic case of media bias by omission, CNN took extra care Monday to leave out a crucial part of their reports on the Milwaukee police shooting.  After a black police officer fatally shot Sylville Smith Sunday, after he refused to put down his gun, riots and violence ensued in the city.  Smith's family was eager to talk to the media and his sister Sherelle had a message that should have been covered and condemned by the media.  Instead, CNN decided to air her words but curtail them before they became controversial.  In this video posted by user DeeconX on Twitter, Sherelle Smith can be seen here, in front of several reporters, calling for violence to end...in the city.  What she says next is shocking.

More on the Milwaukee Riots.  Community activists are already asserting that the violence in Milwaukee results from a lack of investment in black neighborhoods, and that there will be more riots unless more money is pumped into black institutions (including theirs). [...] Even before this incident, the Obama Department of Justice was already investigating the Milwaukee police department, just as it investigated the Ferguson, Missouri and Baltimore, Maryland departments, among others.  The results of that investigation are 100% predictable, given DOJ's agenda.

National Guard Activated in Response to Milwaukee Rioting.  The Wisconsin National Guard has been activated in Milwaukee Sunday in response to violence and protests that erupted there overnight after a man was fatally shot by police.  "I have activated the Wisconsin National Guard to be in a position to aid local law enforcement upon request," Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said in a statement Sunday [8/14/2016]. [...] Volunteers spent the morning sweeping and picking up debris — including bricks, bottle and bullet casings — after about 100 protesters clashed with a couple of dozen officers in a north Milwaukee neighborhood, NBC News reports.

'This is war': Black Panther leader says' black people are being murdered' and insists violent protests are protected by the Second Amendment.  A leading New Black Panther figure has declared 'this is war' in response to the violent protests in Milwaukee at the weekend.  Babu Omowale, the national minister of defense for the People's New Black Panther Party, said there is a 'war against black people' as 'we're the ones being murdered'.  His comments came as a second night of riots erupted following the death of 23-year-old Sylville Smith, who was shot by an officer.  At least one person was shot during the protests as police moved in to disperse nearly 150 protesters, while a cop was also injured.

Violence in Milwaukee after police shoot dead armed 23-year-old in African-American community.  Protesters have hurled bricks and fired gunshots at police cars and set a gas station on fire as protester says "this is a warning cry[.]" Violence has erupted overnight in the US city of Milwaukee after a police officer shot and killed an armed man in an African-American community.  Protesters hurled bricks and fired gunshots at police cars and set a gas station on fire.  The violence came hours after the patrol officer shot and killed the 23-year-old a pursuit that followed a traffic stop.  Milwaukee police said a uniformed officer had opened fire while chasing the man.

Milwaukee Rioters Hunt Down, Attack Whites.  Several videos recorded during last night's riot in Milwaukee appears to show black rioters hunting down white passerby to attack.  Multiple videos recorded by locals show a crowd of people apparently checking the race of passing drivers when deciding what cars they should attack.  A collection of these videos were combined and uploaded to LiveLeak Sunday morning.  [Video clip]

Milwaukee officials plead for calm after police shooting sparks violence.  At a news conference just after midnight [8/14/2016], [Mayor Tom] Barrett said the situation appeared to be calming after a riotous scene in which as many as 10 protesters skirmished with police, torching a squad car and tossing a brick through the window of another.  Police mounted at least two efforts to push the protesters out of an intersection at the heart of the violence.  Other leaders blamed the Black Lives Matter movement for igniting the violence.  Black Lives Matter has "stoked hysteria," Bishop E.W. Jackson told "Fox & Friends" Sunday [8/14/2016].  "A mass hysteria has taken grip" and President Obama has made it worse by embracing the BLM movement, Jackson said.  He added:  The BLM movement works on the false premise "police are out hunting down black men."  They are "using race as a way of avoiding responsibility," Jackson said.

Milwaukee Rioters: 'They Beatin' Up Every White Person!'  Paul Joseph Watson of InfoWars collected videos from Saturday night's [8/13/2016] riots in Milwaukee where participants say they are targeting white bystanders for assault.

Milwaukee burns:  Four buildings and a police car are set on fire as violent protests erupt after cops shoot and kill armed man during chase.  First images of the 23-year-old armed man shot and killed by a Milwaukee police officer, whose death sparked riots and unrest in the city, have surfaced.  Officials identified the dead man as Sylville K Smith, previously charged with first-degree recklessly endangering safety for his involvement in a shooting last year, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.  Both Smith and the officer who shot him are black, according to the Chicago Tribune.  During a press conference Milwaukee mayor Tom Barrett said a photo shows 'without question' Smith had a gun in his hand.

Man shot by Milwaukee police subject of witness intimidation case.  The man shot and killed by a Milwaukee police officer Saturday [8/13/2016] was charged last year in a shooting and then charged again, with trying to intimidate a witness in that same shooting, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has learned.  The man shot by police was 23-year-old Sylville Smith, police sources and Smith's family told the Journal Sentinel.  Smith was charged with first-degree recklessly endangering safety and with witness intimidation, but the charges were dismissed, court records show.  The charges were dropped even though the prosecutors had recorded jail calls in which Smith asked his girlfriend to pressure the victim to recant, according to court records.

BLM Riot Breaks Out in Milwaukee.  There's no word yet on how this is Donald Trump's fault, but sources say they're working on it.

Sister of Milwaukee man fatally shot by police urges crowd to torch suburbs.  The sister of a Milwaukee man fatally shot by police over the weekend told a group Sunday that they should burn the suburbs down.  Sylville K. Smith was shot in the chest and arm by a black police officer on Saturday, which prompted violent protests, looting, and arson.  One of Mr. Smith's sisters, Sherelle, was caught on video at the charred remains of a BP gas station telling a crowd to set the suburbs ablaze.  "You're burning down s--- we need in our community.  Take that s--- to the suburbs!  Burn that s--- down!" she screamed in video shared by a Twitter user identified as DeeconX.  The story was then picked up by news aggregator website Weasel Zippers.

Liberal politics and media fueled Milwaukee riots.  The Milwaukee riots should be the last time the policies of liberal Democrats are held up as anything other than misery-inducing, divisive, exploitative and racist manipulation of the urban populations.  Unfortunately they won't.  As Sheriff of Milwaukee County, I am furious that the progressive left has put my citizens in harm's way and that I had to send my officers into cauldrons of anarchy and hatred that were created by the left.  As an elected public servant I am livid that Milwaukee's pathetic, kowtowing city officials and aldermen take this opportunity to abandon their citizens and preen before the Black Lives Matter-enabling media.

President Obama gets briefing on violence in Milwaukee, then goes golfing.  A vacationing President Obama received an update Sunday about a night of rioting and gunfire in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, before he headed out for another round of golf.  The White House said Mr. Obama was briefed on the unrest by senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, who spoke to Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.

If Obama Had a City, It Would Look Like Milwaukee.  AWD predicted shortly after five Dallas police were assassinated by a Black Lives Matter supporter that black violence against the police would soon spread to black violence against white civilians.  Last night in Milwaukee, blacks were recorded yelling "Black Power" and targeting random whites for violence after another black man with a lengthy criminal record was shot by a black policeman.  Disclaimer:  We at AWD are positive the victim was a goot boy who ain't never done nuffin' wrong.

Altercations and crimes directly related to fried chicken

Introduction:
When constructing this subsection, I confined my search to incidents specifically involving chicken; however, if you'll use your browser's search function and hunt for the word restaurant on this page, you'll see dozens of other cases of disorderly behavior.  Some people get really upset when their lunch plans are disturbed.  Many of them are unable to resolve conflicts without resorting to shouting, intimidation, threats, and outright violence.  When an incident like this is serious enough to get newspaper coverage, one would think that the publicity would be embarrassing enough, but lately, the belligerent parties themselves have begun to record their own misbehavior and put it up on the internet.  This one is a good example. If there are video clips accompanying these stories, I must warn you that they are replete with profanity.


Black Lady Celebrates Black History Month By Eating Her Food And Then Refusing To Pay For It.  [Video clip only.]

Fight Broke Out at Chipotle After Customers Were Told They Would Be Charged for Ordering Extra Chicken.  A request for extra chicken at a South Carolina Chipotle turned into a brawl in the dining area between two customers and an employee.  An argument over the additional cost of the extra food got heated and turned physical.  It all went down on December 10 around 9 pm in Indian Land, South Carolina.  According to the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office, 34-year-old Kayla Pyle entered the restaurant and placed an order.  As she did so, she asked for extra chicken.  The Chipotle employee had the audacity to explain to Pyle that extra chicken comes with an additional cost.  Can you believe that?  I thought this was America and we lived in a free country where you could add as much extra chicken to your order as you want — free of charge.  Apparently that's not the case anymore.  The customer heard the words "additional cost" and decided to do the right thing.  She stood up for those who were afraid to fight back and she demanded her extra chicken for free.  An argument between good and evil ensued.

Woman claims she tried to stab her pit bull for eating her chicken sandwich and accidentally stabbed her 1-year-old niece instead, police say.  Police responded to a report of a stabbing just before 11 p.m.  Tuesday at a Days Inn in the city's Castleton neighborhood, WXIN-TV reported, after which they said they found a 1-year-old girl stabbed in the neck.  A short time later, police found the suspect — the girl's 32-year-old aunt, Sharon Key — hiding near a bush outside the hotel, the station said, after which Key was arrested on allegations of criminal recklessness.  The suspect said the stabbing was an accident, WXIN said, citing police reports.  Police told the station Key said the family went to Burger King to pick up food and then returned to the hotel.  Court records indicate Key claimed her pit bull ate her chicken sandwich, after which she got angry and chased the dog around the room with a knife, WXIN said.

Teen Is Murdered By Her Friend Over McDonald's Dipping Sauce.  Police in Washington, D.C., say a 16-year-old girl is dead after a fight over sauces from McDonald's.  They say she was out with friends on Sunday when one of them stabbed her.  The group had gone to a D.C. area McDonald's around 2 a.m. Sunday.  They were back in the car when an argument between the teens broke out over sweet and sour sauce.  The fight that followed spilled out of the car in front of the McDonald's, and that is when Naima Liggon was allegedly stabbed twice by another 16-year-old teen.  [Video clip]

Why the Violence Over Popeyes' Chicken Sandwich Isn't About Food.  The violence over Popeyes' chicken sandwich isn't about a food shortage; the combatants aren't famished and fighting for morsels in order to survive.  What's causing the brouhaha is people, many of whom are likely already wound up, being denied the opportunity to participate in a frivolous cultural moment.  Said another way:  the violence is resulting from malcontents who wanted to be seen with a hyped-up product in order to secure status, and when that attempt was thwarted, they became aggrieved and irrational.  The hysteria over Popeyes is really no different than how consumers battle one another when a new pair of Nike Air Jordan becomes available.  Customers don't shell out several hundred dollars because the sneaker aids their walking or improve their chances of playing in the NBA.  Rather, they buy the sneaker for what it represents:  status.

Desperate Popeye's chicken sandwich fan destroys her car as she attempts to cut in line at an LA chain's drive-thru.  A women [sic] in California became the latest person to fall victim to the Popeyes chicken sandwich pandemonium on Tuesday [11/5/2019] when she brazenly attempted to cut in line at a local drive-thru but inadvertently ended up destroying her own car.  The humble dose of instant karma was captured on video by a number of perplexed diners at a Los Angeles branch of the eatery, who can be heard laughing at the unidentified motorist throughout the incident.  The woman, driving an early 2000s silver Mercedes, can been seen trying to force her vehicle between a pillar and in front of another car in the line.

Fatal Stabbing at Popeyes Spurs National Conversation About Chicken-Related Hate Crimes.  Just as is the case whenever there is a new release of an urban-oriented line of sunglasses or athletic footwear, waves of violence greeted the summer release of Popeyes chicken sandwich, which is rumored to taste good although we aren't willing to risk getting stabbed to death in order to find out.  The poultry-based item sated the appetites of so many impoverished and downtrodden palates upon its release that it almost instantly sold out, only to be resurrected a week or so ago.  According to an eyewitness of the fatal stabbing at a Popeyes facility in Oxon Hill, MD, the tragedy started when "dude cut in line" — chicken-sandwich-eaters tend to do that — and then "went outside" with their sandwich, only to be stabbed to death in the parking lot by someone who apparently lost their place in line after dude cut in line. [...] It's a documented fact that whenever a new designer chicken sandwich is released in an urban area and the demand exceeds the supply, violence inevitably erupts.

Black violence

'If they don't get out, I'm going to take them out one by one': Anti-white texts spark DOE probe.  New York City's Department of Education (NYCDOE) is currently investigating racist, anti-white text messages that were allegedly sent by Marion Wilson, the black superintendent for schools in District 31.  According to the New York Post, screenshots of the offensive text messages were forwarded by email to chancellor David Banks and other officials from an encrypted email address, Mikeboy70@protonmail.  It's not clear who's behind the account, as the owner has reportedly refused to reply to requests for information from the Post and other outlets.  It is clear though that the text messages are quite disturbing.  "I need to clean up this Island.  White folks need to recognize this is not the boys club anymore.  A strong black woman runs this bitch now and they can either get on board or get out.  If they don't get out I'm going to take them out one by one.  They're not gonna know what hit them," one message reads.

Let Criminal Faces Be Shown.  "Police release images of suspects in Iverson Mall shooting."  As is often the case, the images were of athletic young black men wielding powerful weapons, firing at close range, apparently with intent to kill.  I often check the images of perpetrators, and often they tell me more than the accompanying story, which conceals the most important clue for apprehending the criminal.  But often the images are not published with the initial reporting, especially if the perpetrator is black. [...] Lying has consequences.  In terms of the media depiction of blacks, the consequence is that society is less likely to face the problem that exists in the upbringing and childhood conditions of a large number of black Americans.  Blacks commit murder at a rate of seven times that of whites, according to one source.  But among young black males, murder rates are far higher, because 90.3% of homicides are committed by males, and because we are speaking of young men.  Young black males between the ages of 14 and 35 constitute some 3% of the U.S. population, but this small demographic is responsible for nearly 50% of the murders.

Mayors in D.C. Conference Target Gun Makers over City Crime.  A coalition of mayors working with Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety are targeting gun manufacturers over crime the exists in various levels across cities in the United States.  Axios reports pro-gun control mayors attended this week's U.S. Conference of Mayors in D.C., where they blamed gun makers for crime problems.  Kansas City, Missouri, Mayor Quinton Lucas (D), a member of Bloomberg-founded Mayors Against Illegal Guns, said, "Mayors are on the frontlines of our nation's gun violence epidemic and that's why we won't shy away from naming those who make the guns that are killing our communities."

The Editor says...
Guns aren't killing communities.  Individual shooters, who probably don't know one gun manufacturer from another, are killing other individuals.  The descriptions and biographies of the shooters are remarkably similar, but nobody wants to talk about that.  The only "communities" involved in this mess are rival gangs.

Sen. Klobuchar hosts roundtable to discuss spike in carjacking.  According to reports, Minneapolis experienced a 537% increase in carjacking between 2019 and 2020.  Monday afternoon, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) held a roundtable with six police chiefs from across Minnesota to emphasize the need to address the spike in carjackings and other crimes.  The police chiefs shared their experiences.  Many of them discussed the topic of mental health and the need for more resources to address mental health crisis in the community.

The Editor says...
What if it has nothing to do with mental health problems?  What if the shooters are all completely sane, but also completely reckless, ruthless and recalcitrant?  What if they're all a bunch of godless, fatherless hoodlums who have no regard for other people's lives?  Addressing this as a mental health problem will fail.

Color the Red State Murder Problem Black.  [Scroll down]  With a little internet searching, though, I was able to find a table of information from 2020 on homicide arrests by race in the state of California.  According to the table (Table 31 on page 38), there were 1,597 homicide arrests in the state, 462 — or 29 percent — of them committed by black people.  And again, this is a sufficiently large enough sample to probably be reflective of the remaining body of suspects who were still at large.  Since black people make up only 6.5 percent of the state's population, they are overrepresented in homicide arrests by a factor of about 29 ÷ 6.5 = 4.5.  They are probably similarly overrepresented in whatever the San Francisco city stats may be.  Curious about the murder arrest stats in the state of Florida, I came across 2019 figures (Arrests by Jurisdiction, Offense Type, and Race) that showed a total of 787 arrests of which 447 — almost 57 per cent — were of black suspects.  And yet again, this is a sufficiently large enough sample to probably be reflective of the remaining body of suspects who were still at large.  Now since black people make up about 17 percent of the state's population but account for about 57 percent of murder arrests, it means that about 40 percent of those arrests are due to one little group committing way more murders than they should.

Crime 2020.  The FBI annual crime statistics for 2020 are now out, making their appearance in a new format called the Crime Data Explorer; I'll be going over the murder stats.  Table 1 of the Expanded Homicide Data lists a total of 17,754 murder victims, 7,029 of them white, 9,913 black, 497 other, and 315 unknown.  Table 3 lists the murder offenders, totaling 20,982, 5,844 of them white, 8,142 black, 404 other, and 6,592 unknown, the large number of unknown offenders attributable to as yet unsolved cases.  Table 6 — the single victim / single offender table — is made up of 7,875 pairs of victims and their corresponding known offenders; it is this table from which a number of published percentages are developed.  Of the 7,875 victims, 3,400 — 43 percent — were killed by white offenders (white Hispanics included in the white category), while 3,938 — 50 percent — were killed by black offenders.  According to Statista population estimates for 2020, whites, including white Hispanics, made up 75.8 percent of the population and blacks made up 13.6 percent.  So a group that is less than a fifth the size of a larger group manages to commit more murders than the larger group.

There's a small group of known criminals who are driving crime — and it's not law-abiding gun owners.  A new study from the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform revealed who is driving the vast majority of criminal firearm misuse in the Nation's Capital.  Go figure it's a small number of lawbreakers and not law-abiding gun owners.  Stating that gun crimes in Washington, D.C., are shown to be committed by a "very tightly concentrated" group of individuals, the study's author said, "This very small number of high risk individuals are identifiable.  Their violence is predictable and therefore it is preventable."  The data demonstrate the irony of Democratic-run big cities with strict Second Amendment restrictions and national gun control groups' continued drive to force more gun control despite Americans believing in it less and lawfully buying their own firearms at record numbers.

Who kills the police?  [Scroll down]  Moreover, it is not white supremacists calling for killing cops.  "Off the pigs," goes back to the Black Panther days of the 1960s.  In 2015, protesters in St. Paul, Minnesota were holding a Black Lives Matter banner and chanting, "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon."  You did not need a degree in criminal justice to understand what they meant albeit the obvious meaning was subsequently denied by BLM spokespersons and major media outlets.  In the wake of Minneapolis police officer Kim Porter shooting Duante Wright, one protester carried a pig's head on a spike.  None of his fellow protesters found this obscene.  If that message wasn't clear, the firebombing of a police union hall in Portland and the rioters in Washington, D.C. chanting "burn the precinct to the ground," should have clarified it.

Who Is Killing 10,000 Black Americans Every Year?  What caused the number of U.S. victims of murder and manslaughter to explode by almost 5,000 last year to reach a total of 21,500?  Why are homicides rising another 10% this year?  Why are murders and manslaughters rising so dramatically in the USA?  For that number of killings, 21,500 in 2021, is three times the number of U.S. soldiers dead in 20 years of fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq.  The New York Times and Washington Post both made the FBI figures front-page news.  And the Times gave some insight as to who the victims of homicide in this country were and are.

Scapegoats, Boogeymen, and Hobgoblins.  The world may be increasingly baffled by 2021 America, and its sudden scapegoating of "white supremacist" hobgoblins for problems it cannot or will not solve.  Roughly 400 Americans were shot over the past July 4 holiday weekend.  About 150 of them were killed.  The majority, both of the shooters and the victims, were inner-city, African-American males.  The level of violence approaches the bad casualty days of the recent Afghan and Iraq wars.  Meanwhile, during the carnage, progressive black leaders, from Representatives Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) to Cori Bush (D-Mo.), blasted America's foundational holiday and the country at large for its white supremacy and the current supposed lack of freedom for African Americans.

2021's Stratospheric Murder Rates In America's Five Blackest Cities.  Democrats are in charge of all of the most murderous cities in the United States.  In terms of total population, New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, and Houston are the biggest black cities in America.  It is in these cities — not rural white cities home to white Supremacist Trump supporters — that blacks are exposed to the highest rate of murder and sheer number of murders.  According to the FBI, over 90% of these murders come at the hands of another black.  In other words, white supremacy is a fraud and total boogeyman. [...] Systemic racism does not exist in the United States.  This is an obvious truth.  However, if leftist pawns and useful idiots want to believe in such nonsense, the only logical place of blame is toward the Democrat party.  A good place to begin dismantling systemic racism would be voting for something else.  Until that changes, nothing will change.

Brawl Breaks Out On Spirit Airlines Flight Where Three Black Women Attack Someone Elbowing "Big" Ex-Navy Man Out Of The Way.  Three black women got into a brawl with a so far unknown person.  Mobile phone footage of the incident was uploaded to social media sites and in the videos, three female passengers can be seen attacking an unknown person while elbowing a big ex-navy guy out of the way.  [Video clip]

Systemic Racism, Chicago-Style.  The "Windy City" has a black population of just over 30 percent and is deadly dangerous.  Chicago and Illinois both have some of the strongest gun control laws in the country, with more on the way — do you think it's possible that the criminals might not be obeying those laws? [...] In Chicago, there were 2,240 shootings and 440 homicides from January through July 2020.  The numbers are way up again in 2021.  Back in 2015, Chicago's homicide rate had already risen to 18.6 per 100,000.  By 2016, Chicago had recorded more homicides and shooting victims than New York City and Los Angeles combined.  Chicago's biggest criminal justice challenges have changed little over the last 50 years, and statistically reside with homicide, armed robbery, gang violence, and aggravated battery.  Chicago is considered one of the most gang-infested cities in the United States, with an estimated population of over 100,000 active members from nearly 60 different factions.  Gang warfare and retaliation are quite common in Chicago.  It is estimated that gangs are responsible for 60 percent of the homicides in Chicago.  One thing stands out — almost every shooter and homicide victim (97.7 percent) are black.  But Black Lives Matter and Chicago's Democratic politicians continue to blame "police and systemic racism."

Murder rates soar dramatically in cities after BLM protests with up to 6,000 extra deaths nationwide.  A researcher has found that cities that had Black Lives Matter protests saw a significant decrease in police homicides, but a huge overall increase in murders.  Travis Campbell, an economics PhD candidate at the University of Massachusetts, published his findings in a recent pre-print study examining the impact of BLM protests on police use-of-force incidents.  His analysis, which is still undergoing peer-review, found that cities with BLM protests had 15 to 20 percent fewer police homicides than expected if the protests had not taken place, equating to 300 fewer police killings nationwide over five years.

The Racial Reckoning's New Normal: 50 Murders Per Day.  Why didn't gun control come up much regarding Atlanta?  Well, that shooter used a handgun, while the Boulder murderer employed a Ruger that's officially classified as a pistol, but it looks like one of those scary military-type rifles that feature so prominently in the paranoia porn of liberals.  The Biden Administration is gearing up to crack down on rifles, seeing them as the white man's weapon.  In reality, according to the FBI's statistics, rifles accounted for only 5 percent of all 2019 homicides in which a particular type of gun was identified, with shotguns adding 3 percent.  Handguns, in contrast, were used in 92 percent of known gun homicides.  Of course, handguns are the main weapon with which blacks slaughter blacks in such vast numbers.  White Democrats like Joe Biden aren't terribly interested in reducing the number of blacks murdered by other blacks, especially if they'd have to admit that murder is largely a black problem in the U.S. You aren't supposed to know this, but in 2019, 55.9 percent of known murder offenders were black.  And blacks traditionally are responsible for a slightly larger share of gun murders than of total murders due to their cultural predilection toward shooting into crowds of partyers in the general direction of that guy who dissed them.

Killer Stats.  It's a tradition for local crime beat newspaper reporters to write up during the slow news days between Christmas and New Year's articles summing up local murder data.  So, I was able to find homicide counts for 46 of the 50 most populous municipalities.  In these cities, which accounted for almost one-third of all murders in the country in 2019, killings were up 38.5 percent in 2020 over 2019. [...] Another piece of evidence for who is doing the incremental murdering is that more than a few cities reported even bigger increases in shooting incidents and woundings than in killings.  For example, murders were up 41 percent in New York City but shooting victims grew 103 percent.  New York is evidently experiencing a return to the bad old days of angry black men firing wildly into a peaceable crowd to try to kill the one guy who dissed them.  Wikipedia keeps lists of what it defines as "mass shootings" in which at least four people were struck, whether killed or wounded.  The number of mass shootings grew 40 percent this year from 438 to 615.  But the number of people killed in mass shootings fell by one from 522 to 521, while the number wounded grew 45 percent from 1,748 to 2,541.  Because blacks are notoriously poorer marksmen, this implies that most of this year's incremental mass shootings were carried out by blacks.

Congressman Jason Lewis Tells the Truth about Black Violence.  The journalistic hounds at CNN have a new target, a politician whose sin is so egregious — so unthinkable — that it can hardly be spoken aloud:  the recently elected congressman from Minnesota disagrees with CNN orthodoxy on race.  And now, with enthusiasm we have not seen since hordes of reporters descended on Rick Perry's boyhood hunting grounds where they found a 30-year-old racial expletive written under a rock, CNN has set out to punish Congressman Jason Lewis. [...] Lewis made the fatal error of questioning whether welfare dependence is good for black people.  Per usual CNN standards, none of the genius CNN talking heads are willing to actually talk with Lewis, other than call him names and say he is a bad person and hope no one notices the difference.

Trump's Answer to Black-on-Cop Murder.  In Chicago, every routine stop in a black neighborhood is accompanied by black mobs, often chanting "CCK, CCK:"  Chicago Cop Killer.  Many point their index fingers at the cops, as if shooting a gun.  And every stop is greeted with the accusation:  You are only doing this because I am black.  Around the rest of the country, a cop meeting a black person is much more likely to hear "F*** The Police" than "Hello Officer."  And it is not just the cops.  Racial resentment and hostility against white people have been an institution in this country for at least 40 years.

This is how the Ferguson Effect got started:
Obama's America:  Off-Duty NYPD Officer Shoots Man in Self-Defense, Family Promises to 'Hunt Him Down'.  Now that we've established that the law is what you want to make it up to be, our descent into lawlessness will be rapidly accelerated.  If the cops think the government's got their backs, they're in for a rude awakening.

Rapper busted after video shows him blasting Trump while brandishing stolen guns.  By the time [Joe] Meaux called police, he said local authorities and the Secret Service were already aware of the Instagram video featuring Demarcus Davis, 22, a local rapper who goes by "Maine Musik."  "I really want to go to war with Donald Trump because Donald Trump is tryin' to take food stamps from my momma and that's all the (expletive) she got," Davis said on the video.  "Let Donald Trump know it's up over here.  We want war; we're going to declare war."

Why doesn't your father provide for your "momma" instead of having her rely on the taxpayers for her income?

Shocking violence casts shadow over federal Job Corps program.  [A] 17-year-old was lured into the woods by three of his classmates at the federally funded Homestead Job Corps in Florida.  Outside the live-in vocational school, the students pulled out a machete, police say, and began to hack away at him.  As he lay in a pool of his own blood, the attackers threw him in a shallow grave and set him on fire, authorities say. [...] Government watchdogs have issued multiple warnings for years about the escalation in violent crime at Job Corps — the $1.6 billion antipoverty program launched during President Lyndon Johnson's tenure to provide free vocational training for low-income students.  The program, which was once seen as a safe harbor for teens in high-risk areas, has seen a disturbing spike in documented cases of violence as well as reports that those in charge looked the other way as dangerous conditions developed.

Teen Killed Taking Instagram Photo With Gun To His Head.  There are few things dumber than pointing a gun at your own head.  One of those dumber things is then pulling the trigger.

The Editor says...
This "teen" was an adult, and had he been white, he probably would have been called a man, not a "teen."

What the media still won't report about minorities and pools.  I grew up in Spanish Harlem and the only pool nearby was the Jefferson pool located in a nearby project.  Inevitably, fights would break out between the few Hispanics outnumbered by an unruly black crowd.  This had nothing to do with race but was really just bad behavior.  When we first moved to Staten Island, the swimming pool near the Staten Island ferry, Lyons Pool, would be routinely overwhelmed by blacks from Brooklyn who would disobey pool rules and terrorize the families with young children, even urinating and defecating in the community pool.  That problem was solved after a multi-million dollar renovation which requires registration via email for entry.  Again this is not a race issue as those who utilize pool now are racially balanced by all who obey pool rules.

Black Mob Violence In Swimming Pools: A Long History.  Today, residents who live near public swimming pools in New York dread the opening day of summer because of the black violence in the pools and in the surrounding neighborhoods.  Ditto for the other swimming pool in Wilmington called Canby Park.  It closed 15 years ago, ostensibly for repairs.  But neighbors spent one hour on a radio show talking about the black mob violence connected to the pool, and how the black city officials ignored it because they said it was just white people complaining about black people for No Reason What So Ever.

Time for the Welfare State to Stand Trial.  As of 1950, "only 9% of black families with children were headed by a single parent."  Between 1940 and 1960, "the black poverty rate had been cut in half." [...] By 2012, the black illegitimacy rate was at 73%, starkly high in contrast to other demographic segments.  And the moral decay that came with this trend is not obscure.  "According to the National Fatherhood Initiative, 60% of rapists, 72% of adolescent murderers, and 70% of long-term prison inmates are men who grew up in fatherless homes."  In light of these facts, these statistics may be less surprising:  In 2010, blacks (approximately 13% of the population) accounted for 48.7% of all arrests for homicide, 31.8% of all arrests for forcible rape, 33.5% for aggravated assault, and 55% of arrests for robbery.  It was by design that the social structure provided by government supplanted the social structure of the family.

Racial Violence and the Conspicuous Silence of the Media.  By now, almost everyone has seen one of the semi-amusing videos of black teen mobs rampaging through a store.  Maybe we've even seen the non-amusing pictures of the victims, or heard their stories.  Most Americans have heard of recent violent "flash mobs," which are the bands of black teens that attack mostly white victims and white businesses, as even the New York Times once noted.  But the flash mobs, which are more accurately called "race riots" or "racial mob violence," are not the only interesting topic to cover in our national conversation about race.  There is also the "knockout game," which is stunning in its brutal simplicity and stark racial significance.

Liberal Racism.  The Berkeley/Oakland area was on high alert last week... but not because of a natural disaster, like an earthquake.  A jury was deciding the fate of a white police officer charged with killing a black male at a BART station. ... This is not the first time that riots have occurred relative to this incident.  Mobs have already broken windows, looted stores, beat people up, and destroyed cars.  The attitude then, as well as now, is that "we" have a right to riot.  Why?  Why do certain groups have a right to riot?  And why do others make excuses when livelihoods are ruined, millions of dollars are wasted, and innocents are hurt?  My opinion?  Liberal racism.

Excusing the Oakland Rioters.  Looting is not an inevitable concomitant of the exercise of speech rights.

Burned, Baby, Burned:  Watts and the Tragedy of Black America.  The author argues that the riots in Watts launched a new — and misguided — tactic of menacing protest and rebellion for its own sake in the struggle for civil rights.

More Overlooked History:  Black Violence.  [The Black Panthers] Minister of Information Eldridge Cleaver wrote about his history of raping women, claiming that rape was "an insurrectionary act."  Because his victims were white, he explained, rape was not only a way to get revenge but also to defile and trample upon "the white man's law and his values."

Chaos erupts in courtroom during sentencing of 20-year-old carjacker.  Chaos engulfed a Jersey City courtroom this morning [5/4/2012] when a woman convicted of a brutal carjacking erupted in screams upon hearing the lengthy sentence imposed.  The moment Superior Court Judge Patrick Arre said "15 years," Latoya Campbell, 20, became hysterical, as did her family members sitting in the courtroom.

Shocking video shows teacher stuck in the middle of a violent classroom fight.  A shocking video shows a teacher helplessly stuck in the middle of a classroom fight — with no one coming to her aid.  The footage, recorded by a teenage boy in the class at Gibbs High School in St Petersburg, Florida, shows two young girls exchanging a war of words with their classmates egging them on.

A Localized Culture of Violence.  [T]he United States may have a culture of violence, but one that is isolated in easily identifiable communities.  The results from Virginia, Minnesota, and Louisiana bring into question the veracity, pragmatism, or true objectives of activists who propose broad restrictions of Constitutional rights when high firearm homicide rates are almost exclusive to less than 1% of the land area and a small fraction of the population.  A more logical and effective approach would be to address the root causes of the culture of violence in these communities, but this is more difficult and the required introspective self-analysis appears to be outside of the comfort zone of most community activists.

I presume that the locals call it PERP High School.
PRP High School student allegedly punched school official, cop.  According to an arrest report, 18-year-old Shantarra Willis got mad at the assistant principal and began swearing and shouting.  When a police officer tried to take her into custody, she allegedly punched him in the face.  The assistant principal tried to assist the officer, but Willis punched him in the face 5-6 times, according to police.  Willis also allegedly kneed him in the groin.

Chicago Public Schools Will Be Even More Dangerous Without School Resource Officers.  At a bare minimum, every student attending a public school in the United States should feel safe.  Sadly, in far too many government-run schools, this is not the case.  This is particularly true for the 320,000 students who attend Chicago Public Schools (CPS), where abuse, assaults, thefts, drug dealing, and gang activity have become all too commonplace.  Unfortunately, the decision to remove school resource officers from CPS will likely result in more violence and a less conducive learning environment.  According to a recent report by the University of Chicago's Urban Education Institute, "School safety is a particularly pressing issue in urban public schools; the incidence of violent episodes is almost 60 percent higher in city schools than in suburban schools, and 30 percent higher than in rural schools.  Urban schools are approximately twice as likely as other schools to report that students verbally abuse teachers and act disrespectfully (other than verbal abuse) toward teachers either daily or at least once a week."  This disturbing trend has engulfed Chicago Public Schools (CPS).

What a brilliant idea!
Chicago Education Board Moves to Pull Cops from Schools.  Dozens of Chicago high schools that continue to employ school-resource officers to protect students and staff from violence will no longer be allowed to do so under a plan coming before the far-left city’s education board this week.  The “Resolution to Create a Comprehensive Whole School Safety Policy,” which is on the board’s Thursday meeting agenda, would prohibit the 39 city schools that continue to utilize school-resource officers from continuing to do so next school year.  If approved, the resolution would direct Chicago Public School leaders to develop “a holistic approach to school safety at every District school” that “addresses root causes” of violence, and that focuses on “restorative justice” and “healing-centered practices.”  The effort to eliminate officers from schools has been a priority for progressives and racial-justice activists who contend that black students and students with disabilities are disproportionately policed and disciplined by in-school officers.  It also comes after at least four students were killed in three shootings near Chicago schools in recent weeks.

The Things Allowed to Happen in Baltimore Schools Are Hard to Believe.  It has been a few months since I wrote about Baltimore schools and I find that over the past week or so an amazing story has broken there.  A teenager who is a convicted rapist has been allowed to return to high school and parents were not told about it.  The student in this case is 15-years-old and just last month was convicted of having sex with a minor child last year, a member of his own family. [...] This student, who was given a slap on the wrist and sent back to Patterson High School, is constantly around younger students including freshmen girls, many of whom are still 14-years-old.  In fact, it's worse than that.  In digging into this case, WBFF discovered that the same student is facing similar charges in a second case involving another young child. [...] Again, this kid is walking around in high school and the parents of the other 1,300 kids haven't been told about it.  How is this possible?

The Editor says...
If the colors were reversed, and a group of 15 lily-white rednecks beat a black student to death, this would be a front-page "hate crime" story for at least a week.  As it is, the news media won't touch this story, and hardly anybody has even heard of it, even though the murder took place about 11 days ago.  Apparently it has become almost completely illegal to report, depict, or openly discuss violent black-on-white crime in the U.S.  The only parties exempt from this stigma are the blacks themselves, who merrily record each other's violent crimes, while cackling and chuckling amongst themselves.

Another Gunman Terrorizes UNC's 'Gun-Free' Campus.  Yet another gunman terrorized the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a "gun-free zone" by state law, a little over two weeks after a pistol-wielding Wuhan University alum allegedly shot dead a professor inside a school laboratory late last month.  Like the case of the "mostly white Asian male" shooter, as satirically described on social media, the press — typically titillated by the thought of a trigger-happy maniac wreaking havoc on school grounds as a means to push the Left's gun-control agenda — isn't going to like this one.  The suspect, a black man, is a career criminal reportedly with a rap sheet dating back a decade.

Why Johnny can't play tag.  When little Johnny goes to school this fall, he may face another danger.  The poor boy already has trouble reading and writing.  He suffers from losing social skills and faces an assault upon his innocence through the destructive influence of horrible books and drag queens.  It is increasingly common that the boy will no longer be allowed to play tag, dodge the ball and other simple contact games.  They are too dangerous and must be banned.  Someone might write this ban off as another concession to a snowflake generation that idolizes safety and comfort.  However, the funny thing is that the games really are dangerous.  School officials are finding that they are causing more serious injuries than in the past.  Contact between students is more intense and brutal.

Teachers' Unions Are Destroying American Education.  American public schools are witnessing a mass exodus of teachers.  The term "stampede" may be more appropriate.  According to one poll conducted in 2022, some 55% of educators were ready to leave the profession, and this unease is often translated into action.  In one Chicago school nearly every teacher bailed out.  Many teachers are not even waiting for the end of the school year and are leaving in mid-term.  These departures overwhelming result from school violence, disorderly classrooms, insufficient administrative support, and trying to teach kids who just don't care.  According to one study during the 2020-21 school year, one-third of teachers reported at least one incident of harassment or threats of violence while 14% were actually physically attacked.  The American Psychological Association (APA) Task Force on Violence against Educators and School Personnel reports that threats can even come from parents convinced that junior is "a good kid" despite carrying a knife to the classroom.  Cold statistics understate the fear of violence, especially in schools where poor, single-parent minority students predominate.

Teacher shot by 6-year-old student says school ignored warning signs: $40M suit.  The Virginia teacher shot by a 6-year-old student filed a $40 million lawsuit on Monday [4/3/2023], accusing school officials of repeatedly ignoring warnings that the disturbed youngster had a gun.  Abigail Zwerner, 25, filed the suit nearly three months after she was shot while teaching at Richneck Elementary School in Newport News by a first-grader with "a history of random violence," according to the lawsuit.  That history included "multiple reports that a firearm was on school property and likely in possession of a violent individual," the suit said about the troubled youngster who was suspended for smashing Zwerner's phone two days before the shooting.  "We know for a fact that there were at least three opportunities for them to stop this from happening," one of her attorneys, Jeffrey Breit, told the "Today" show moments after filing the suit Monday.

For their personal feel-goodery, the Denver School Board shoots three, kills one, and endangers thousands at East High.  Like many school boards, the Denver School Board years ago asked the police for help in quelling violence in the schools.  The police succeeded to some extent.  So far, so good, though it's a poor reflection on our society, our schools, our students, and their parents.  In 1975, about 1% of schools had cops onsite.  By a few years ago, it was over 50%.  The presence of cops did help.  But the Denver School Board was disappointed that the encounters by the school police involved a disproportionate number of students of color.  That was no surprise to anyone paying attention to crime statistics.  A disproportionate number of police encounters in society at large involve people of color, and so it's natural that it would be the same in the schools.  All serious observers know that's because a disproportionate number of crimes are committed by people of color. [...] For example, it has been well documented that Black people commit murder at roughly seven times the rate of white people.  Most people murdered by Blacks are themselves Black.  The response of the Denver School Board was not to focus on the message that a disproportionate number of violent crimes are by students of color, but to shoot the messenger — the police.

Classrooms Gone Woke & Wild.  Student misbehavior, disrespect, and violence have become standard features of traditional public schools.  Instead of imposing firm consequences, woke ideology — under the guise of "restorative justice" — produces dangerous classrooms.  According to a study by the American Psychological Association, "One-third of surveyed teachers reported they experienced at least one incident of verbal and/or threatening violence from students during COVID (e.g., verbal threats, cyberbullying, intimidation, sexual harassment)."  A staggering 14% of teachers and 22% of school staff cited physical violence from students during COVID.  Considering schools were closed during much of this period, the percentage of adults affected is astounding[.]

How 'Progressive Discipline' Turned Ontario Schools into a Battleground.  A 200-pound Ontario middle schooler was getting ready to pummel his classmate when a group of teachers escorted him to an office where they hoped to calm him down — instead, he proceeded to ram into the two adults, a man and a woman, for the better part of an hour, leaving them shaken and bruised.  He never faced any consequences.  "You should have seen their bruises.  The guy's back is totally messed up.  The girl still has arm issues," Margaret, a teacher with over a decade of experience in Ontario's public schools, told National Review.  Worried about the potential repercussions, the teachers who were assaulted were not able to physically restrain the student, nor did senior school administrators expel him.  "All he got was an in-school suspension.  His mom came to pick him up, asked if he wanted dumplings, and they left.  There were no consequences," Margaret said.

What Is Going On In America's Schools With This Massive Surge In Violence?  Something has broken with America's youths since lockdowns as violence against each other as well as teachers have skyrocketed.  New federal data released on Thursday offers insight into the many, growing ways that schools have amped up security over the past five years, as the country has recorded three of the deadliest school shootings on record, and as other, more routine gun incidents on school grounds have also become more frequent.  About two-thirds of public schools in the United States now control access to school grounds — not just the building — during the school day, up from about half in the 2017-2018 school year.  An estimated 43 percent of public schools have a "panic button" or silent alarm that connect directly with the police in case of emergency, up from 29 percent five years ago.  [Video clip]

Systemic Violence in Miami-Dade Schools, Supported by MDSPD, Surfaces Yet Again.  Let me be very clear, having investigated the Miami-Dade and Broward County school system for over a decade, this is not surprising.  Following the path of Trayvon Martin and the weird school discipline program he was a part of, I ended up spending a lot of time deep in the research of these school systems.  Things are not what they appear.  The recent video of a 9-year-old Latina student and her brother being beaten mercilessly by older black students on a school bus is not an isolated incident.

Public Schools Face Dramatic Rise in Student Misbehavior.  Reports of student misbehavior have risen sharply in public schools, as districts also report widespread "stunted" social development among students.  Yet special education resources may not be able to cope with the subsequent rise in students with special needs.  The annual "School Pulse Panel," a survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Education's Institute for Education Sciences (IES), revealed some troubling trends:
  •   More than 80% of public schools reported "stunted behavioral and socioemotional development" among students because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
  •   Schools also saw a 56% increase in "classroom disruptions from student misconduct" and a 49% increase in "rowdiness outside of the classroom."
  •   Seven in 10 public schools reported increases in students seeking mental health services since the start of the pandemic.
Many of the problems reported in the survey were preexisting, even if exacerbated by pandemic policies.  For example, the demand for social and mental health services was already trending upward well before COVID-19.

I'm Not Qualified.  I have taught high school English in the public schools for twenty years in three states, including two red states and a deep blue state.  I have taught mainstream English, honors English, and remedial English.  I've worked in alternative schools, high-poverty schools, large high schools serving mostly English learners, and predominantly white, middle-class schools.  Last month I let my teaching license expire.  For the first time since 1998, I am no longer qualified to be a teacher in my home state of Kansas.  When I consider the public education landscape not only in the Midwest, but across the country, it is with sadness that I think, "Not qualified to teach secondary English anymore?  You're right."  I'm not qualified to deliver counseling services to the legions of broken, fatherless, emotionally stunted students who walk through our classroom doors every day.  I'm not qualified to engage in behavior modification with dysregulated, angry kids who exhibit no impulse control, zero empathy for others.  Students have talked about killing me, threatened to hit me in the face.  Upon writing up these incidents, I have been blamed, told I need to work on "building relationships" with students, or offered more training on working with students dealing with trauma and abuse.  Administrators pass off these students' comments with, "Oh, he didn't mean it..."  "I talked to him... " or "Think about what may have occurred in your class that provoked this behavior."  There are minimal consequences for students who verbally and physically assault teachers.  It's open season on public school staff.

Study: School Causes Children to Commit Suicide.  Children are killing themselves in large numbers due to government schools, suggests a new study highlighting a very strong correlation between school attendance and youth suicide.  In fact, the researchers concluded, "youth suicides are closely tied with in-person school attendance."  The study, published by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), found that youth suicides decline during the summer, when children are home from school.  Once school starts again, though, suicide levels among children in school start rising again.  The trends are so clear that, in parts of the country where the school year starts in August, suicide rates start climbing in August.  Meanwhile, in jurisdictions where school is not back in session until September, suicide rates among children do not start going up until then.

More on the 6-year-old who shot a teacher.  Over the weekend, we discussed the bizarre case of a 6-year-old first-grade student in Newport News, Virginia who brought a loaded handgun to school and shot his teacher, Abby Zwerner.  The police didn't initially release many details, leaving many questions hanging in the air.  Where did the gun come from and how did the student get his hands on it?  Was it stolen or did he grab a weapon belonging to his parents?  And how did he get it into the school undetected?  NBC News had some new updates on the story last night and the picture has become at least a bit clearer.  First of all, the gun, a 9mm Taurus, belonged to his mother and had been legally purchased and registered.  The local police are reportedly saying that the boy won't (and probably can't) be prosecuted, but the parents might be.

The Editor says...
If he had parents (plural), he probably wouldn't be toting a gun to school.

How did a 6-year-old get a handgun and shoot a teacher?  This is a shocking story that took place on Friday in Newport News, Virginia, but I held off on addressing it in the hope that more details would be forthcoming.  (That didn't happen.)  A six-year-old boy entered his first-grade classroom, produced a loaded handgun, and shot his elementary school teacher.  The shooting was described by authorities as "not accidental" and it followed an "altercation" between the teacher and the student.  The female teacher survived the serious wound and she is currently listed in stable condition at a local hospital.  The boy, whose name is being withheld for obvious reasons, is currently "in custody," but not technically under arrest.  As alarming as this story may be, the path forward from here is murky.

The Editor says...
More broadly, how safe is the school, if any six-year-old can walk right in with a gun?

6-year-old boy shoots teacher at Virginia school.  ANewport News, Va., teacher has sustained life-threatening injuries after a six-year-old male student brought a handgun to school and deliberately fired at the victim.  The shooting occurred at Richneck Elementary School in a first-grade classroom.  "The altercation was between a 6-year-old, the student, who did have the firearm, and the teacher, and then a round was fired," said Newport News police chief Steve Drew, per NBC.  "This was not an accidental shooting."  The suspect is in custody but authorities will not identify him due to his age.  The female teacher has been hospitalized.

Breaking: 6-year-old student in custody after allegedly shooting his elementary school teacher in Virginia.  A Virginia elementary school went into lockdown after a 7-year-old student shot a teacher in the abdomen on Friday morning.  The startling incident unfolded at the Richneck Elementary School in Newport News, a city of nearly 200,000 residents in the eastern part of the state.  Police responded to the shooting at about 2 p.m. and said an adult female victim was rushed to Regional Riverside Medical Center.  Michelle Price, a spokeswoman with Newport News Public Schools, confirmed that the victim was a teacher at the school.

Update:
Judge Rules Virginia Teacher Shot By 6-Year-Old Student Can Proceed With $40M Lawsuit.  In an incident that shook the community of Newport News, Virginia, a first-grade teacher, Abigail Zwerner, was shot by her 6-year-old student during a classroom session.  The aftermath of the incident led to a legal battle between Zwerner and the school system, with Zwerner filing a $40 million lawsuit against the school administrators for negligence.  In January, a 6-year-old student retrieved his mother's handgun and shot Abigail Zwerner, his first-grade teacher, while she was seated at a reading table.  The incident resulted in Zwerner being hospitalized for two weeks and undergoing multiple surgeries to treat her hand and chest injuries.  Zwerner alleges that the school administrators ignored multiple warnings about the boy's possession of a gun and his concerning behavior.

Boston shocked to find more crime in schools after they ditched their police.  In December of 2020, Massachusetts passed its "Police Reform Law" in response to BLM protests and calls to "abolish the police."  The law would have required school police officers to undergo 350 hours of very expensive, specialized training in order to keep their positions in their school districts.  Almost all of the schools in the Boston School District chose to instead cut their cops loose and replace them with "school safety specialists" who don't carry handcuffs or firearms and who do not have the authority to arrest students.  This left teachers and administrators with no choice other than calling 911 when trouble broke out.  To the great surprise of many of the activists pushing for "police reform" (but really not to anyone else with an IQ above room temperature) incidents of many sorts of crime in the city's public schools began to rise almost immediately.

Michigan men's basketball coach Juwan Howard takes swing at Wisconsin coach and sparks massive brawl at end of game.  Michigan men's basketball coach Juwan Howard unloaded a wild swing at a rival coach after his underperforming team was routed Sunday, sparking a massive postgame brawl that could have major ramifications on the rest of the Wolverine's season.  Howard, a a former member of Michigan's famed Fab Five and longtime NBA star, apparently got angry that Wisconsin coach Greg Gard called a timeout in the closing seconds of a game that was out of reach between the Big Ten conference foes.  After the final horn sounded on Michigan's 77-63 drubbing, Howard appeared to make contact with Wisconsin assistant coach Joe Krabbenhoft after arguing with Gard in the handshake line.  The punch set off a wild melee between the two teams at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin.

Teacher Refused to Let a Child Do what She wanted, So the Brat Destroys the Classroom.  The backstory on this is supposedly that the little girl wanted to do something other than her class work, so she snapped and begun destroying the entire classroom.  The teacher stood idly by just watched the little [bad] kid wreak complete havoc, slamming chairs, breaking anything she could get her hands on.  Then they allowed her to push her 60-pound body through a doorway full of grown women and walk away after shutting down the class.  [Video clip]

[...] "I heard there were kids doing donuts and stuff, causing a ruckus with their dirt bikes," student Logan Wisniewski said.  "The coach wasn't happy with it.  He asked them politely to stop doing that.  The kids weren't having that, so they decided to jump him."

A School Shooting You Won't Be Hearing About.  Liberals love to use school shootings as springboards for their favored hobby horses, usually more gun control.  But what happened yesterday at the South Education Center in Richfield, Minnesota doesn't fit the narrative.  This high school is part of a school district that focuses on special education, alternative learning and transitional services.  As I understand it, many of its students come from other high schools where they have gotten into trouble, so that the South Education Center represents a second chance.  It also embodies, perhaps, the ultimate in high school wokeness. [...] But far leftists and the teachers' union are driving Resource Officers out of the public schools.  ["]Superintendent Lewandowski also ordered the removal of all metal detectors for the 2021-2022 school year 'after serious concerns about the racial equity impacts of using metal detectors.'["]  Contemplate that idea for a moment!  Everyone has to go through the metal detector, not just members of one race, so how can it represent racial inequity?  The only possible answer is that "students of color" are presumed to be most likely to bring guns to school.

What's So Frightening about Parochial Schools?  I work at a high school where the majority of the students are from inner-city Milwaukee.  They are confronted almost daily with some form of dysfunction, depravity, or violence.  One day, some of my students challenged me as to why they should put a lot of effort into their studies when, from their perspective, the outlook for their futures looked bleak.  I reminded them that God doesn't want them to live in poverty or hopelessness.  Rather, as stated in Proverbs 13, He wants them to live lives of prosperity, generosity and leave a legacy, which is possible if we follow His plan.  I was able to share aspects of my faith with my students because the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program (MPCP) has enabled their parents to send them to Milwaukee Lutheran High School on a voucher.

Seattle-area prosecutor defends light-on-crime approach for teens wielding guns at school: 'Get used to this'.  A Seattle-area prosecutor was slammed over a recent presentation to law enforcement officials in which he insisted police should "get used to" the district attorney's office allowing juvenile suspects — even those accused of bringing a gun to school — to avoid jail time.  Ben Carr, senior deputy prosecuting attorney for King County, made a recent Zoom presentation on "considerations for juvenile suspects."  "Even for serious offenses the primary focus will be on rehabilitation," Carr wrote, adding in parentheses, "get used to this concept."

Massive Brawl Breaks Out At High School, Student Who Records Is Told To Delete Video By Staff, Police Are Called And She Is Arrested.  When a fight erupted in the courtyard of Palm View K-8 School in September, one 12-year-old student took out her cellphone and recorded video of the melee.  School administrators ended the fight.  Then, they quickly shifted their attention to the girl, demanding she delete the video and give up her phone.  The student refused, setting off a chain of events that ended with a deputy twice forcing the seventh-grader to the ground and arresting her.  George Schrenk, the sheriff's deputy who works as a school resource officer on campus, captured about an hour of video on his body camera.  Throughout the footage, Palm View staff are seen contemplating how to handle the student.  "I don't think I want her in handcuffs, but I do want a severe consequence and I want her off my campus," Principal Kaththea Johnson said in the body camera footage.  [Video clip]

Schools Confront a Wave of Student Misbehavior, Driven by Months of Remote Learning.  School districts across the U.S. say they are seeing a surge of student misbehavior in the return to in-person learning, after months of closures and disruptions due to the pandemic.  In the hallway between classes one afternoon this fall at Southwood High School in Shreveport, La., two boys exchanged words.  All at once, they jumped at each other, witnesses said.  Dozens of other students joined and they all fell into a heap, kicking and punching, until teachers pulled them apart.  The fight was one in a series of brawls in Southwood's courtyards and hallways on three subsequent days that led to 23 students being arrested and expelled.

Teen girl concussed after brutal basketball attack.  A disturbing cheap shot during a California basketball game left a teen girl concussed and her mother "in shock."  At an event in Southern California, 15-year-old Lauryn Ham was sucker-punched by one of her opponents.  According to her mother, she's still recovering from the brutal punch over the weekend.  "Of course I was in total shock," the victim's mother, Alice Ham, told ABC7.  "Just couldn't believe that could happen to my child."  Ham said her daughter was disoriented when she came home after the game.  "The person in question went down the court and shot a 3-pointer, landed, fell backwards into my daughter," Ham said.  "As they got up and turned and were walking back down to the other side of the court, her mom says to her, 'You need to hit her for that.'  And the child in question sucker-punched my daughter."  Ham told the outlet that she filed a police report, and that she felt "it rises to the level of assault, the way that she does it with such intent and brutal force."

Video of bloody melee at Susan Wagner sparks stabbing rumors; sources say knife removed from student.  Video of a melee involving students at Susan Wagner High School with what appears to be blood on the hallway floor is being shared on social media Friday [10/22/2021], though officials say no one was stabbed in the incident.  A knife was taken away from a student during the fight, according to a source with knowledge of the incident.

Wild brawl caught on video erupts at Staten Island's Wagner High School.  A violent melee erupted inside Wagner High School on Staten Island on Friday, leaving school safety agents tumbling to the ground and a dean bloodied.  Footage of the chaotic brawl shows multiple kids tussling as safety agents and staffers frantically attempt to intervene — with one officer tumbling to the floor while trying to restrain a combatant.  A knife was recovered from a female Wagner student after order was restored and a dean cut her hand as she retrieved it from the floor, sources said.  A 14-year-old girl was taken into custody, but had not yet been charged.

School Shootings and Students of Color.  The POC in question was 18-year-old Timothy Simpkin, a black student at Timberview High School in Arlington, Texas.  Systemic racism had apparently failed to keep this young man down.  He wore fancy clothes and drove a $35,000 car.  Others allegedly bullied Simpkin because of his good fortune.  Weary of the bullying — or so the story goes — Simpkin shot and critically wounded a 15-year-old student, race unknown, and a 25-year-old man.  Also injured in the panic that followed the shooting were a teenage girl and a pregnant teacher.  Incredibly, Simpkin was released on a $75,000 bond and was home partying while the 15-year-old remained in a coma.  Simpkin was not an outlier.  Less than a week prior, also in Texas, Dexter Kelsey, a former student at YES Prep Southwest Secondary School in Houston, shot and injured the school's principal.  Kelsey is black, the principal Hispanic.  This case generated almost no media attention beyond Houston.  These news stories should have surprised no one.  Based on the available evidence, it would seem that all of the 14 school shootings to date this school year involve a person of color.  This year, too, as in most years, every incident took place in or around a public school.

[Black] High School Student Beats [White] Disabled Teacher As Part Of TikTok Challange.  A high school student was arrested in St. Tammany Parish after she allegedly assaulted her physically disabled teacher as part of a social media challenge.  The Covington Police Department said the attack happened Wednesday [10/6/2021] at Covington High School.  The department said the student, 18-year-old Larrianna Jackson, was caught on video punching the 64-year-old teacher, knocking her to the ground.  [Video clip]

Texas High School Gunman Welcome Home Party Caught On Video.  GoFundMe has removed an account set up by friends and family of Arlington school shooter Timothy Simpkins where they asked for $25,000 from the public to help him, claiming he is traumatized from his father's death.  A spokesman told DailyMail.com on Friday: 'The fundraiser was removed from the platform because it violated GoFundMe Terms of Service.'  'Less than $150 was raised and all donors have been refunded.'  Simpkins, 18, critically injured 15-year-old Zacchaeus Selby and also wounded 25-year-old teacher Calvin Pettitt — whom he shot in the back — when he opened fire at Timberview High School in Arlington, Texas, on Wednesday [10/6/2021].

Gov. Abbott:  Alleged Texas School Shooter Possessed Gun 'Illegally'.  Gov. Greg Abbott responded to a mass shooting at a school in Arlington, Texas, on Wednesday [10/6/2021], saying the alleged gunman possessed the gun illegally.  Timothy George Simpkins, an 18-year-old student at Timberview High School in Arlington, was charged with three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.  He turned himself in to police hours after the incident unfolded, police said.  Three of the four victims were hospitalized, including a 15-year-old boy in critical condition, a 25-year-old man who was shot and is in good condition, and a teenage girl who suffered minor injuries and has since been released, officials said.

Dallas public schools will no longer suspend students because too few white students are suspended.  Dallas Independent School District is making some changes in how it addresses student disciplinary issues across middle and high school campuses.  The school district is doing away with in-school and out-of-school suspensions as disciplinary practices.  The district, instead, will address student behavior issues by incorporating "reset centers" in its 52 middle and high schools.  "We're just trying to address something that has been going on for a long time," said Pierre Fleurinor, a reset coordinator for Dallas ISD.  Fleurinor, or Coach Flo, as the students call him, works at Stockard Middle School.  He said the reset center gives the students a place to refocus, cool down, connect and form relationships.

Petite Asian Teacher Gets Smashed On The Head With A Chair While Trying To Break Up Fight.  This is a prime example of why teachers in rough schools should never get involved with daily brawls within their classrooms.  This tiny Asian teacher tried to go between two students brawling and got the blunt end of a chair to the head.  [Video clip]

Student is shot dead by classmate at North Carolina school:  Brave parents.  A North Carolina high school student was shot dead by a fellow student on Wednesday — the second school shooting in the state in three days.  The victim was identified as William Chavis Reynard Miller Jr., a student at Mount Tabor High School in the city of Winston-Salem, Forsyth County Sheriff Bobby Kimbrough Jr. said.  The gunman was taken into custody hours later.  Law enforcement officials arrested the suspect without incident.

School Bully With a History of Violence Horribly Assaults New Kid In Class.  Tania Mashburn, public information officer for Utah State Courts, confirmed that the student involved in the physical altercation at Treasure Mountain Junior High last week is facing a Class B misdemeanor count of assault.  The penalties for such a charge involving a juvenile typically include some combination of community service, anger management classes, and possibly a fine.  A video shared widely on Snapchat last week showed a student at Treasure Mountain Junior High pushing a fellow student inside a trash can and later picking him up and throwing him on the ground.  [Video clip]

Teacher and HS Student Brawl In Hallway After Dispute Over Gangsta Bandana, Student Was Shot Last Year.  Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) says it's investigating a "physical altercation" between a Marion C. Moore student and teacher.  Now-viral video of the fight sparked demands for answers and a protest at the school Monday afternoon.  The fight happened in the hallway of the school on Outer Loop.  The video, which does not show the beginning of the fight, shows the student throw punches at the teacher as the teacher pins the student, face up on his back, firmly to the ground.  It also shows the white teacher launch a knee toward the Black student's face before hoisting him by his hair as multiple people, including other students, try to pull the teacher away.  [Video clip]

Calling Out Black Juvenile Delinquency from a Place of Loving Concern.  The most hostile work environments I ever experienced were public schools in Washington, D.C. and in Cleveland.  I interned in DCPS (District of Columbia Public Schools) and crisscrossed CMSD (Cleveland Municipal School District) as a substitute teacher.  On several occasions, a teenager got in my face and "bucked" at me as if he were going to punch me.  Many more kids, some as young as seven or eight, cussed me out.  I knew better than to take these almost daily attacks personally.  Still, no one should have to endure such a hostile work environment.  I find Black juvenile delinquency alarming.  As a six-foot-two Black man from Anacostia in Southeast D.C., I don't speak from fear.  I'm calling out Black juvenile delinquency from a place of loving concern.

No surprise:
Schools punish Black students 3.5 times more often than white kids, MUSC experts say.  Elementary schools are 3.5 times as likely to suspend or give detentions to Black children than their white peers, according to a recently released study.  The study, which included a researcher from Medical University of South Carolina, used data on nearly 12,000 students from ages 9-10 nationwide to determine how factors like social media, sleep, video games and more affect health, according to the website.  Researchers found the racial disparity even after controlling for income, special education status, reports of family conflict and more, according to the MUSC study.  The findings did not apply to all minority groups, according to the study, which was funded by the National Institutes of Health.  When researchers accounted for external factors such as family conflict and income, they found white and Hispanic students were punished at roughly the same rate, according to the study.

A New Consciousness Is Replacing Education.  [Scroll down]  In another school known for violence and mayhem, all students had to have their book bags scanned for weapons every morning, and students were randomly body-scanned for weapons when they entered the building.  Eighteen security officers were assigned to the building with the power to arrest but carried no weapons.  Additionally, two full-time armed police officers were assigned to the school.  Fights continually were breaking out, weapons were being smuggled into the school, and one day a female student was shot in the leg exiting the building.  There was also a full-scale riot between Jamaican and Haitian students.  None of these incidents was reported in any newspaper or on TV.

A New Consciousness Is Replacing Education.  The public does not know that for many schools K-12, when the schools are open under normal circumstances, what is called "learning" is minimal.  At least half of the students are in a non-educational or anti-educational mode.  This reality is never mentioned when talking about opening or not opening schools.  Adding in masks, plastic dividers, and rules for social distancing in NYC and other madhouse urban schools will, independent of fears about COVID, result in a doubling down on the insanity.  All day long, teachers are struggling to have "order."  The cursing, mouthing off, restlessness, inattention, screaming, constant talking, lack of homework, assaults, robberies and attempted robberies, throwing of paper and objects, lack of basic supplies, etc. are more typical of the time in class in many schools than the fantasy of "classroom learning."  Yet I never see this reality mentioned.

Defunding School Police.  Craziness now exits on an industrial scale but among all foolish ideas, none is stupider than trying to defund police departments, particularly where poor people, disproportionately African Americans, depend on policing.  Yet, just when it seems that this insanity cannot get worse, it does, and the latest madness concerns extending defunding demands to include school police. [...] In other words, no rational reason exists for this policing since, allegedly, African Americans behave themselves, so policing just unfairly criminalizes innocent people of color, an argument identical to what Black Lives Matter activists insist — inherently racist cops routinely murder blameless blacks.

Does A High Percentage of Black Arrests in Schools Justify Kicking the Police Out?  Few who are paying attention will be surprised that, in Maryland public schools, black students make up a disproportionate number of those arrested by police officers working in the schools.  According to the Washington Post, black students make up 56 percent of those arrested (but only 34 percent of the student population), while white students make up only 28 percent (compared to 37 percent of the student population). Eight percent of those arrested are Latino (compared to 18 percent of the student population), six percent multiracial (compared to five percent of the population), and one percent Asians (compared to 7 percent of the population).  The superintendent of Maryland's schools described the black/white disparity as "horrendous."  Few who are paying attention will be surprised by the reaction of left-wing activists to these numbers.  They want to remove police officers from schools.

Denver Board of Education votes unanimously to remove police from schools.  It sounds like there was plenty of tension at the Thursday night [6/11/2020] meeting of the Denver Public Schools Board of Education.  A vote was held on a proposal to remove all SROs (school resource officers from the Denver Police Department) from all public schools in the district.  After four hours of heated debate and public comment, the board voted unanimously to remove them.  The number of SROs on campuses is to be reduced by 25% immediately with all remaining officers to be given the boot by June of next year.  Going by the local CBS coverage of the meeting, the reasons given for the decision sounded as if they had absolutely nothing to do with anything that's been going on in the local schools and it was more about national politics than anything else.

A Brilliant Mind — Young Black Voice Delivers Red Pill To Urban White Liberal.  According to people on the Twitter this young black woman is Beverly Beatty, and the conversation is in/around the occupied territory known as CHAZ.  That said, Ms. Beatty delivers a remarkably effective two minute elevator speech; to an urban white liberal.  What the video shows is an empowered delivery of Red Pill truth.  [Video clip]  There are many more people like Ms. Beverly Beatty than Democrats would ever admit.  These empowered, articulate voices for conservative freedom — regardless of race — are antithetical to the political interests of the DNC.

A video catches a brave woman telling leftists the truth about the Democrats.  There's a lot of ugly stuff coming out of CHAZ.  We've seen people who condemn walls as evil build walls; people who claim that mandatory ID is racist demand ID; people who dismiss farmers as morons "plant" crops on cardboard; and people who hate the Second Amendment instantly cede power to others with guns.  We've seen also the kind of thing we already expect from the Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and anarchist crowd:  Property destruction, mob violence, suppression of free speech, and outright hostility to Christianity.

Gun Control Activist David Hogg Targets Semi-Automatic Rifles.  The dramatic increase in violent behavior by students is why most schools in America now have at least one full-time police officer.  Some schools have more, many more.  Like its counterparts in other large cities, the public school system in Detroit has its own police department, which employees hundreds of administrators, investigators, campus police officers, security personnel and a K-9 unit.  Why is it necessary for so many school districts to have their own police department?  The answer is a national tragedy:  schools in our largest cities and counties have become dangerous places where lawless behavior by students is so prevalent that police must be close at hand.

San Francisco middle school descends into 'Lord of the Flies' environment.  Aptos Middle School is located in San Francisco and, from the outside, appears like an ordinary school.  But today the San Francisco Chronicle reports a small group of disruptive students, somewhere between 5 and 20, have turned it into something reminiscent of the Lord of the Flies.  And, at least so far, school authorities seem unable to do much about it: [...] The schools previous principal and assistant principal left recently and the new principal seems to have a different view of school discipline.  It has become normal for kids (ages 11 to 14) to wander through the halls, enter classes they are not in, and direct bad language at other students and teachers.

San Bernardino middle school teacher possible first victim of 'serial-killing gang'.  Police in California believe four unsolved fatal shootings over the last six months are part of the same gang-related spree — beginning with the murder of a middle school teacher in August.  Nancy Magaña, 25, was sitting in her parked pickup truck with her boyfriend and 5-year-old son Aug. 17 when two men walked up to the driver's window and shot her, San Bernardino police said Wednesday [2/12/2020].

High school's JV basketball players attack, beat their coach following a game.  Members of the Shabazz High School junior varsity boys basketball team repeatedly punched and kicked their coach in a violent attack in Newark following a game Tuesday night, officials confirmed to NJ Advance Media.  A video of the incident, obtained by NJ Advance Media, shows at least four players knocking the coach to the ground while punching and kicking him repeatedly outside the school.  The video of the attack lasts about 25 seconds.

Too Many Teachers Are Getting Hit, Kicked, and Punched by Students.  It's no secret that violence seems to be on the rise in schools, especially at the elementary level.  Teachers report more aggressive behavior than ever before, aimed at both other students and teachers themselves.  This uptick in student violence has teachers on edge, worried for their own safety as well as their students'.  Many feel helpless in the face of it and question their choice of career.

Gun Violence Skyrocketed at Black Colleges during Obama Administration.  In the 36 years before then-senator Barack Obama promised "Change We Can Believe In" during his 2008 presidential campaign, won the presidency, and made history by becoming America's first black president, shootings at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) were infrequent and rare events.  During that time, 13 shootings occurred at HBCUs, killing four students and injuring another 12 victims, 11 being students.  While change did occur during the Obama presidency, it wasn't hopeful change we can (or even should) believe in.  Empirical data of shootings at HBCUs [...] have uncovered that during the eight years of the Obama administration, shootings at HBCUs surged 430% (in roughly 28 less years) to 56 shootings, with gunfire killing 12 and injuring 66 more.  Ten of the 12 victims (83%) killed during the Obama presidency were students, as were 39 (59%) of the injured.

Florida boy allegedly pummeled on school bus for wearing Trump 2020 hat.  A 14-year-old Florida boy was allegedly pummeled by several students on a school bus for wearing a Trump 2020 hat to school, disturbing video shows.  The boy's mother on Thursday released a 21-second video of the Nov. 21 attack in Hamilton County, where two girls and three boys are seen relentlessly punching him as other students look on and scream in the background.  The boy, identified as Tyler, was assaulted for previously wearing to school a Trump 2020 hat that he bought "with his own money" at a flea market several weeks earlier, his mother said.

School bus bullies pummel 14-year-old boy leaving him hospitalized with head injuries 'because he'd worn a Trump 2020 hat'.  Shocking video has emerged showing a 14-year-old boy being attacked on a school bus, allegedly because he'd previously worn a hat supporting President Donald Trump.  The incident occurred on November 21 in Hamilton County, Florida, and the video first emerged on Thursday after the boy's family retained attorney Foye B. Walker for possible legal action.  The incident left the boy, identified only as Tyler, hospitalized with head contusions, according to his mother, a Trump supporter [...]  [Video clip]

Wild brawl erupts at Phoenix high school basketball game.  A high school basketball tournament in Phoenix took an unexpected turn over the weekend when a wild brawl broke out, shocking video shows.  Players from Mesa Skyline High School and Cesar Chavez High School were lining up to shake hands late Saturday [11/30/2019] after the Phoenix Union High School District Coyote Classic tournament when a student from Mesa threw a punch, setting off an ugly free-for-all involving coaches, players and spectators, video obtained by the Arizona Republic showed.  "It was a terrible scene," Skyline coach James Capriotti told the newspaper.  "It was a really bad look after a really good game."  [Video clip]

Teen dies after being sucker-punched by middle school classmate.  A 13-year-old boy died after getting his head knocked against a cement pillar during a nasty beat-down by two other teenagers at his California middle school, authorities said Wednesday [9/25/2019].  Cellphone footage of the Sept. 16 attack at Moreno Valley Landmark Middle School shows the boy, identified as Diego, being hit in the face by one student and then sucker-punched on the side of the head by another.  The second blow sends him falling to the ground, his head hitting a pillar on the way down, according to the clip obtained by KTLA-5.

Florida girl, 6, arrested for battery by school resource officer for temper tantrum: report.  A Florida grandmother claims her 6-year-old granddaughter was arrested by a resource officer after throwing a temper tantrum at school — which she says happened because the child suffers from sleep apnea.  Meralyn Kirkland says the child, Kaia Rolle, was acting out at Lucious and Emma Nixon Academy, a charter school in Orlando, as a result of lack of sleep.  The 6-year-old was then brought to the principal's office.

The Editor says...
I went to school quite often with inadequate sleep, and I have no doubt that I wasn't the only one in that condition.  But in the good old days, nobody would have dared to throw a tantrum (of the sort described in this article) with no more excuse than sleep deprivation.  Where are the parents?  Why is the grandmother having to address the news media?

Trump Supporting High Schooler Harassed, Threatened and Hounded Out of School by Liberal Classmates.  Washington DC senior Jayne Zirkle was forced to leave her high school after continued harassment and threats from her liberal classmates for supporting President Trump.  And Jayne says the teachers were not helpful.  She even had instances where the liberal teachers lowered her grades because she supported the president.

The Editor says...
I suspect the article above pertains to events relevant to this subsection; however, the press coverage doesn't specifically mention that the threats came from black students.  Even so, that seems to me to be very likely, especially because the press omitted that angle.

America's Children Need Universal School Choice Now More Than Ever.  Many of the country's largest school districts give families no alternative to the nearest public school.  They offer no charter schools, no school vouchers — no school choice programs of any kind.  Instead, kids are consigned to a dysfunctional school.  Fourth graders in Baltimore and Philadelphia public schools are reading more than two grade levels behind their peers nationally, according to the Nation's Report Card.  Detroit's fourth-graders are reading nearly four grades behind their peers.  Yet parents in large public school districts often have even bigger concerns than whether Johnny can read.  They're worried more about their children's safety.  And with good reason.  From September through December last year, Chicago Public Schools dealt with more than 600 allegations of sexual violence.  In the year before that, 10% of high school students in Washington, D.C., public schools were threatened or injured with a weapon on school property.

'Back To School Brawl' Of 100 Teens Prompts Police, Paramedics To Rush To Scene.  On Thursday, a massive brawl involving at least 100 individuals near Stagg High School in Stockton, California, prompted police and paramedics to rush to the scene to try to get the situation under control and provide help to those who had been injured.  The incident, which was caught on video, resulted in at least one arrest.  In a "wild scene" reported by CBS Sacramento, just after school Thursday afternoon, dozens of students became embroiled in a sprawling brawl that "spilled off-campus" and ultimately involved at minimum 100 individuals.

Black Education Decline.  The Justice Department's Bureau of Justice Statistics and the Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics show that in the 2011-12 academic year, there were a record 209,800 primary- and secondary-school teachers who reported being physically attacked by a student.  Nationally, an average of 1,175 teachers and staff were physically attacked, including being knocked out, each day of that school year.  In the city of Baltimore, each school day in 2010, an average of four teachers and staff were assaulted.  A National Center for Education Statistics study found that 18% of the nation's schools accounted for 75% of the reported incidents of violence, and 6.6% accounted for half of all reported incidents.  These are schools with predominantly black student populations.  It's not only assaults on teachers but cursing and disorderly conduct that are the standard fare in so many predominantly black schools.

Restrained special-needs student, 10, 'brutally' bitten on school bus while driver did nothing, parents allege.  A Wisconsin 10-year-old girl with special needs was "brutally" bitten by another mentally disabled student while riding the school bus this week, leaving the girl in pain with severe bruising on her left arm, according to reports.  Parents Lynn Waldron-Moehle and Chad Waldron claim another mentally disabled girl on the special-needs school bus gnawed into their daughter's arm as she was constrained by a five-point-harness car seat and was unable to escape.  The bus driver did not stop to intervene, they told Green Bay's WBAY-TV.

Federal Report: 220,300 Public School Teachers Physically Attacked by Students.  A record 220,300 public school teachers reported that they were physically attacked by a student during the 2015-2016 school year, according to a report jointly published this month by the National Center for Education Statistics and the Bureau of Justice Statistics.  The 220,300 public school teachers who said they were physically attacked by a student in 2015-2016 is up from the 197,400 who said they were attacked by a student in 2011-2012 (which is the last school year before 2015-2016 for which teachers were surveyed on the question).

City schools see 2,000 percent rise in 'forcible-sex offenses'.  [New York] City schools are facing a sickening epidemic of sexual misconduct.  In just the past year, the number of "forcible-sex offenses" reported by educators has risen nearly 2,000 percent — from just 21 in 2016-17 to 447 last year, according to a [New York] Post analysis of state data.  By comparison, the entire rest of the state logged only 49 such incidents last year, the figures show.  The offenses involve "completed or attempted" sexual contact from rape to forced groping, and even involved victims and perpetrators as young as elementary school students, according to the data.

Texas girl dies at hospital days after being beaten by classmates: report.  A 13-year-old Texas girl died Wednesday [4/24/2019] after falling into a coma following a violent altercation with two teen girls outside her middle school last week in which one girl kicked her in the head.  Kashala Francis, a student at Attucks Middle School in Houston, died five days after the attack while on life support at Texas Children's Hospital.  It was there doctors discovered a large tumor in the back of her head and fluid build-up in her brain, her mother, Mamie Jackson told KTRK.

The Editor says...
Obviously the perpetrators must be black, otherwise the news media would be in a "hate crime" frenzy.

Parents Should Be Able to Put Kids in Safe Schools.  Florida, a leader in school choice, is addressing the bullying epidemic in the Sunshine State's public schools by allowing parents to transfer their children to safer schools.  Evidence shows bullying is the number-one disciplinary problem in public schools, with more than six million kids affected annually.  Furthermore, federal statistics indicate approximately 945,000 of bullied students likely missed school at least once in the past month because they were too afraid to attend.  In 2018, Florida implemented the Hope Scholarship program, which provides financial assistance to families of children who have been bullied so they can transfer to safer schools.  When it was passed, the Hope Scholarship program was the first of its kind nationally.

Democrat Lawmaker and Teamster President: 'Chaos' in Schools Since Obama-Era Discipline Policy.  A Democrat state senator and a Teamsters president said the dramatic drop in school suspensions in New York City since the Obama-era policy urging more lenient forms of discipline for minority students has led to "chaos" and a lack of "accountability" for dangerous behavior.  New York state Sen. Leroy Comrie told CBS New York that schools in his Queens district are losing the confidence of parents.  "They're taking their children to other schools even if they have to pay for private schools," he said.  "They don't want to have to have their children in an environment where they're assaulted and there's no accountability."

My students know they're in charge, and there's nothing I can do.  In my school, law and order have gone the way of the slide rule. [...] In my 20 years working for the Board of Ed, I've never seen such a disregard for the rules — and human decency — as I'm seeing now.  Smoke weed on campus?  Grab your fellow student's breast?  Tell your teacher to f*** off?  You just earned yourself an in-house suspension — also known as a hang-out-with-your-phone-in-an-empty-classroom day.  When I started out, an altercation with another student could get you an out-of-school suspension ordered up by the principal.  Nowadays, giving a kid a bloody nose doesn't even buy you so much as an in-house one.  And the kids are so street-smart, they know exactly how to commit the maximum amount of crime and get the least amount of time.

Okla. high school student caught knocking 'MAGA' hat off boy's head.  An Oklahoma high school student is facing a potential criminal charge after video showed him knocking a "Make America Great Again" hat off another student's head.  The incident at Edmond Santa Fe High School was captured on cellphone video, which showed a black male student in a yellow safety vest blocking a white male student wearing pro-Trump gear from walking down a school hallway.

Violent behavior in elementary students becoming more prevalent.  While the focus of making Utah's schools safer has been on securing the buildings, violent behavior among children is also posing a threat to both students and teachers alike.  Teachers have noted that violence among students has become more prevalent, and classroom rage is another indication of the mental health crisis in the state's schools.  The toughest lesson Sophia Cruz learned in third grade wasn't tied to academics, but rather what to do when a boy in her class threw scissors, staplers and flipped desks.  "I thought I was going to be scarred for life because they were really sharp scissors," she said.

Florida student age 11 is arrested after threatening to beat his teacher'.  A Florida student aged just 11 has been arrested after refusing to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, calling it racist to black people and then allegedly threatening his teacher.  The schoolboy was kicked out of class Lawton Chiles Middle Academy in Lakeland after refusing to stand, Bay News 9 reports.  He was arrested by the school resource officer and taken to a juvenile detention center after allegedly refusing to follow multiple commands.

Chicago teacher allowed friend to beat 9-year-old boy in school restroom: lawsuit.  A Chicago public school teacher allowed a fourth-grade student to be beaten by her friend in a school restroom, according to a lawsuit filed by the child's mother.  Asia Gaines, mother of the 9-year-old boy, said her son suffered bruises all over his body as a result of the September 2018 beating with a thick leather belt.  Kristen Haynes, the boy's homeroom teacher at George Tilton Elementary School, and her friend Juanita Tyler are charged with misdemeanor battery in connection with the alleged abuse.  Haynes, 50, Tyler and Chicago Public Schools are named as defendants in the lawsuit.

Racial Disparities in School Discipline.  Faced with threats from the Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, schools have instituted new disciplinary policies.  For example, after the public school district in Oklahoma City was investigated by the OCR, there was a 42.5 percent decrease in the number of suspensions.  According to an article in The Oklahoman, one teacher said, "Students are yelling, cursing, hitting and screaming at teachers and nothing is being done but teachers are being told to teach and ignore the behaviors."  According to Chalkbeat, new high school teachers left one school because they didn't feel safe.  There have been cases in which students have assaulted teachers and returned to school the next day.  Many of the complaints about black student behavior are coming from black teachers.

Boy, 14, repeatedly stabs a female classmate of the same age during an orientation assembly on the first day of school.  A boy has repeatedly stabbed a 14-year-old girl at an Oklahoma high school on the first day of classes Thursday [8/16/2018].  The unidentified teen stood up during the orientation assembly Thursday and stabbed the unidentified female student 'seven times' around 8.30am, according to police. [...] 'There was an incident at the High School Assembly this morning at the Auditorium.  The situation is under control, all students are safe,' the statement said.

The Editor says...
Yeah, all the students are safe — except the one who got stabbed.

Amount of weapons seized in NYC schools has skyrocketed.  The number of weapons caught in NYC schools skyrocketed in the wake of a student's stabbing death.  In the 2017-18 school year, the total weapons seized in city public schools increased by 28 percent over the prior year — from 2,119 to 2,718, the NYPD told The [New York] Post.  While the firearms found dropped from 10 to five, school personnel found kids with 1,551 knives, up from 1,176 — an alarming 32 percent increase.  In addition, confiscated box-cutters and razors rose from 607 to 771, a 27 percent jump.

Even a former drug dealer can't handle teaching in Philly's schools.  Quamiir Trice served time for selling crack while he himself was a high school student in Philly, yet managed to do a one-eighty:  He ended up graduating from college and became a teacher in city schools.  His story is an academic's dream — a black male returns to his neighborhood to teach.  But Trice's first year at Bethune Elementary was like that which way too many educators — of all colors — face.  "It was chaos," he said.  "I was just treading water; things just didn't feel good.  There were so many students, and so much going on, that it was impossible for me to reach them."  He said that he "felt lost about everything from lesson plans to teaching reading."

Despite Police Report and Doctor's Note, School Says No Evidence of Bullying.  Despite the police report, the medical records and the doctor's note, which all describe a serious attack, the school determined "there is not sufficient evidence to prove that your child was subjected to bullying or intimidation behaviors."  There was no recommended discipline for the attacker.  This mom calls it a cover up.  "The boy was playing and he hit her in the head by mistake.  That's what the principal said," the mom told Project Baltimore.  "How could somebody just hit you in the head by accident?" says the daughter, who told us she was hit three times.  "I feel the children are not safe in the schools anymore.  If I had the money or the means to be able to do it, I would take her out of the school system altogether and put her somewhere private," says the mom.

Patton
Unarmed White Teachers Are At Risk Of Rape And Murder By Their Black And Latino Students.  Stacey Patton (left) is an "assistant professor of multimedia journalism" at Morgan State University, an "urban" black college in Maryland.  Patton has a Ph.D. in African-American History, and I don't even know where to put the share quotes there.  She's the author of Spare The Kids:  Why Whupping Children Won't Save Black America, which deals with "black America's relationship with corporal punishment", I. E. horrific rates of child beating, which is apparently the fault of white people and nothing to do with a low-IQ, high crime rate population having to deal with low IQ, high crime rate children.  As Steve Sailer notes [elsewhere], she's been given op-ed space in the Washington Post to say that teachers should be unarmed, because armed teachers may kill black and Latino students. [...] But teachers aren't safe from kids of color.  Take the late Colleen Ritzer, for example.


White Honor Student, 12, Beat Up at School, Targeted with Racist Graffiti at Home.  A 12-year-old white honor student at the Mastery Charter Thomas Campus in Philadelphia has been singled out by black students and is now scared to go to school.  According to a CBS 3 report, a police report was filed three weeks ago citing an incident at school in which Joey Messina was beaten by six black males in a hallway attack.  Joey said the boys came after him and punched his back as he lay on the ground covering his face.

Moral Values and Customs vs.  Laws.  Yesteryear even the lowest of lowdown men would not curse or use foul language to or in the presence of women.  To see a man sitting on a crowded bus or trolley car while a woman is standing used to be unthinkable.  It was deemed common decency for a man to give up his seat for a woman or elderly person. Today young people use foul language in front of — and often to — adults and teachers.  It's not just foul language.  Many youngsters feel that it's acceptable to assault teachers.  Just recently, 45 Pennsylvania teachers resigned because of student violence.  Back in what my daughter calls prehistoric times, the use of foul language to an adult or teacher would have meant a smack across the face.  Of course, today a parent taking such corrective action risks being reported to a local child protective service and even being arrested.

At least 45 Pennsylvania teachers resign in just three months due to student violence.  Dozens of teachers have quit their jobs in Pennsylvania's capital city amid a wave of violence from students as early as the first grade, it has emerged.  The Harrisburg Education Association (HEA) said that at least 45 teachers resigned between July and October, and more have followed since.  Those who remain are now demanding more help from administrators.  'I have been kicked, punched, hit, scratched.  I've had a student physically restraining me in front of my other students,' first-grade teacher Amanda Shaeffer told board members, according to Penn Live.

This Is What Anguish Looks Like:  Victims of Black-on-White Violence.  Not too far away from the scene of the latest carjacking, a white mother of an autistic high school child wonders why school officials lied to her when her son came home from school battered and bruised.  They said he was hurt "horsing around."  The video told the tale:  he was the victim of a black person picking him up and slamming him on the ground.  People in Chicago are way past surprise at the level of black-on-white violence in their schools.  Even so, on video, we can see this mother wondering how this could happen to her son — and to her.  Note the anguish, the feelings of betrayal, the knowledge that no matter what she does, no matter what police say, no matter what school officials promise, her son is a target of racial violence at his high school.  And that will not change.  That is what misery looks like.

Tennessee State football player expelled after reportedly punching coach on sideline.  A college football player at Tennessee State University punched a coach on the sideline during a game this weekend and was subsequently expelled and dismissed from the team, The Tennessean reported.  The 22-year-old was also expelled from the university, according to the paper.  Strength and conditioning coach T.J. Greenstone was knocked to the ground after Latrelle Lee, a senior defensive end, reportedly punched him multiple times in the head.  The incident was caught on video.

Teacher Is Stalked And Violently Attacked By Parents Of 4th Grader Whose Phone Was Taken In Class.  Now I'm no seer or anything, but I'm going to venture an educated guess that this fourth-grader isn't going to go very far in life. [...] Because let's be honest, if you're willing to stalk and beat up a teacher who took your child's cell phone, you really shouldn't be allowed to have children.  There is something wrong with your heart, your soul, and your brain if you think that is worth attacking someone.  Pittsburgh Police are saying that 46-year-old Janice Watkins had confiscated the phone of one of her 4th grade students, because the school has a no-cellphone policy.

Parent hit teacher in the face with brick after dispute: cops.  Police say an elementary school teacher was hit in the face with a brick and dragged from her car in Pittsburgh after a dispute with the parents of one of her students.

More than a dozen New York schools are unsafe: survey.  At least 13 city schools are rated as dangerous and disorderly as the Bronx school where an 18-year-old student stabbed a classmate to death, according to Department of Education surveys of students and staff.  The schools — nine in The Bronx, three in Queens and one in Brooklyn — scored as badly or worse on one or more safety and discipline questions than the Urban Assembly School for Wildlife Preservation.  At that Tremont school, senior Abel Cedeno allegedly killed Matthew McCree, 15, and wounded Ariane Laboy, 16, with a switchblade on Sept. 27.  Cedeno claims he was relentlessly bullied and "snapped" when the boys pelted him with pencil pieces.

Teen Killed, Another Wounded In Stabbing Attack at NYC School.  Two teens were wounded, one fatally, during a stabbing at a Bronx school Wednesday [9/27/2017].  It was the first time in 25 years that a student was killed inside of a classroom in New York City.

Teen stabbed to death in NYC high school.  A Bronx student stabbed a classmate to death with a switchblade and seriously injured another in front of more than a dozen classmates inside their high school Wednesday morning — and cops are investigating if bullying was a motive, sources said.  Investigators believe Abel Cedeno, 18, plunged the tool into a Matthew McCree, 15, and Ariane LaBoy, 16, around 10:50 a.m. on the fifth floor of the Urban Assembly School for Wildlife Conservation on Mohegan Avenue in East Tremont, sources said.

Horrifying video shows students beating a Georgia teacher after she tried to stop a fight.  Shocking footage from a Georgia middle school shows the moment a teacher became caught in the middle of a brawl between students.  The brawl at Rome Middle School in Floyd County was filmed in a classroom and later uploaded to YouTube.  Floyd County Schools officials have said they will not release information about the students or teacher caught up in the fight.

HS Student Socks Teacher Right In The Face.  Where are the parents of these terrible children? [...] The fact that people actually do this is disgusting and disheartening.  [Video clip]

Unsayable Truths about a Failing High School.  I haven't visited Cheltenham High since I graduated in the faraway American Graffiti era, but I ventured back for a packed emergency community meeting about the May 4 events.  In addition to memories, I found a stark illustration of the nation's evasions about racial gaps in education. [...] There was no way to chalk up these complaints to adolescent theatrics.  A February survey of CHS teachers had already revealed a school that resembled Lord of the Flies.  Cursing, yelling students roamed the halls, pushing, shoving, ramming each other into walls, sometimes "accidentally" colliding with teachers.  Thirty-six out of 79 teachers surveyed believed that they were unsafe in the hallways, and those who didn't acknowledged either being big enough to stare down students or practiced at minding their own business. [...] What could not be said out loud was that the problem kids were all black, though the district superintendent did delicately indicate that the school's trouble is "racialized."

Stone Mountain Middle School teacher fight caught on tape by student.  A teacher and a paraprofessional at Stone Mountain Middle School have been removed from the school following a fight Friday that was caught on tape by students.  In one 24-second clip, posted on social media, two women are seen in what appears to be a science classroom punching each other several times before another adult attempts to break up the fight.  DeKalb County School District officials declined to name either woman involved, and did not elaborate on a statement released about the incident.

What Ever Happened to the Civil Rights Movement?  If Obama saw in school-discipline data "evidence of black boys being suspended at substantially higher rates than white boys for the same behavior," as he claimed while mandating fewer suspensions, he obviously was not examining the numbers as clear-sightedly as City Journal's Heather Mac Donald.  No, the behavior is not the same.  If black boys aged 14 through 17 commit murder at ten times the rate of Hispanic and white boys combined, Mac Donald reasonably asks, is it likely that their classroom behavior is any less disproportionately unruly?  Since the Obama administration's anti-discipline edicts, student assaults on St. Paul, Minnesota, teachers have tripled.  Seattle, which, in compliance with administration diktats, has cut school expulsions by 77 percent from 2013 through 2016, now has seen several students murdered, plus an alleged gang rape.  Teachers from Gotham to Des Moines to Fresno are up in arms over Washington's anti-discipline push, which their unions say has produced classroom anarchy.

Black People:  Don't You Worry About 'Bout a Thing.  Kat Timpf Will Save You.  [Scroll down]  In Philadelphia, four high school teachers went to the hospital and ten were injured after a large group of black people attacked them.  And oh yeah, that happens all the time there.  But do not confuse this with the black people who attacked a white teacher in a Florida school about the same time.  Or the large fight in a black school in Memphis where teachers know better than to try and stop it.  Or the dozens and dozens of episodes of large-scale black violence in schools, all last month.

Large fight erupt at high school, leaving teacher knocked unconscious.  A fight erupts in a local school that injured eight teachers, one of them knocked unconscious.  Police said the fight involved four girls.  The cause of the fight was something on Facebook.

Queens' Richmond Hill High School students fear for their lives as serious fights break out on campus.  It's becoming the school of hard knocks, and a safety agent union leader says students are scared.  Violence erupted at troubled Richmond Hill High School in Queens, as police responded to two incidents involving students — and a vicious brawl caught on tape.  School safety officials said a video recorded by students at the school on March 10 shows a gang initiation, with a crowd of students pummeling each other on campus.  Cops responded to the school after two girls struck another girl in the face, according to police records for that day.

No Thug Left Behind.  "Racial equity" has become the all-purpose justification for dubious educational policies.  Equity proponents view "disparate impact" — when the same policies yield different outcomes among demographic groups — as conclusive proof of discrimination.  On the education front, "equity" does not seek equal treatment for all students.  Instead, it demands statistical equivalence in discipline referrals and suspensions for students of every racial group, regardless of those students' actual conduct.

Students Allegedly Assaulted White Girls because Their Braids Were 'Cultural Appropriation'.  Hampshire College student has pleaded "not guilty" to charges related to the alleged physical assault of a white basketball player over the fact that her braids were "cultural appropriation," and I just have to ask:  What happens inside of your brain to make you think that that's okay?  According to the Daily Hampshire Gazette, 20-year-old Carmen Figuera approached some apparently non-Latina members of the Central Maine Community College women's basketball team and demanded that they remove their braids from their heads because it was "cultural appropriation."  Now, anyone with any logical ability whatsoever should be able to understand that it takes a very long time to unbraid tight, cornrow-style braids, which means that Figuera's take-them-out-now demand was absurd on a practical level as well as on a philosophical one.  But apparently, not everyone has been gifted with basic logic, because when the girls refused to remove them, Figuera allegedly started a fight with one of the girls, and then another Hampshire College student allegedly physically attacked one of them as well, pulling the girl's hair and causing her to fall down.

12-year-old boy doing better after vicious school beating.  The family of a 12-year-old South Elgin boy says he's doing better after a vicious beating at his school. [...] District officials would not reveal any information about the student who beat Henry, nor would they say whether that student was in school Monday [3/6/2017].

Police Dept.  Cancels 'High-Five Friday' at Schools Because Some Students May Be 'Uncomfortable'.  A police department in Northampton, Massachusetts is ending its "High-Five Friday" program at local elementary schools due to concerns that "undocumented children" and others may feel "uncomfortable" seeing an officer at school.  The program, started by the Northampton Police Department in December, had officers stand outside of a school each Friday morning to high-five students as they walked in to begin the day.

The Editor says...
The permanent presence of cops in schools should make the students uncomfortable.  I never saw a cop in our school, back in the 1960s.  If the police have to be there every day, there must be a constant likelihood of criminal behavior.

One reason we need school choice you never hear about:  Bullying.  [Scroll down]  It was less than two months into the school year when things started going downhill.  My youngest began complaining daily about being sick.  Over the course of several months, we discovered my son had been horribly attacked, not just once, but multiple times at school.  Once this occurred in the bathroom, but usually it was at recess or outside the classroom.  One boy held my son down and choked him while his friends pinned my son's arms to the ground.  Police reports were filed, meetings with school officials were held, and parents were contacted.  As the year progressed, so did the attacks.  The police told us the boy was too young to discipline and his parents had refused to allow school officers into their home to discuss the attacks.  Education officials told us the boy was losing his recess privileges but he was never suspended.

If the public schools are this close to anarchy, they might as well be closed, and let the private schools teach those who actually want to learn.
School Superintendent Bans Forks In Cafeteria To Keep Students From Stabbing Each Other.  Sto-Rox High School in the gritty Pittsburgh suburb of McKees Rocks is the site of the new fork-free policy, according to local NBC affiliate WPXI.  The superintendent, Frank Dalmas, implemented the policy and other draconian measures last week to keep students in line.  There have been fights involving injuries.  (It's not clear if these fights are fork-related.)  There has been drug use in bathrooms.  In addition to forks, table knives have also been banned from the cafeteria in response to student behavior.  Spoons appear to remain legal — for now.  Also, students at Sto-Rox High can no longer obtain hall passes for bathroom breaks during classes.

No Thug Left Behind.  We have a segment of kids who consider themselves untouchable," said one veteran teacher as the 2015-16 school year began.  At the city's high schools, teachers stood by helplessly as rowdy packs of kids — who came to school for free breakfast, lunch, and WiFi — rampaged through the hallways.  "Classroom invasions" by students settling private quarrels or taking revenge for drug deals gone bad became routine.  "Students who tire of lectures simply stand up and leave," reported City Pages.  "They hammer into rooms where they don't belong, inflicting mischief and malice on their peers."  The first few months of the school year witnessed riots or brawls at Como Park, Central, Humboldt, and Harding High Schools — including six fights in three days at Como Park.  Police had to use chemical irritants to disperse battling students.  "We are seeing more violence and more serious violence," warned Steve Linders, a St. Paul police spokesman.  "Fights at schools that might have been between two individuals are growing into fights between several individuals or even melees involving up to 50 people."

Boy badly beaten by classmate gets support from Chicago Cubs' Anthony Rizzo.  A middle school student who was beaten so severely by a classmate he went into a coma is now talking, eating and reading all the "get well" messages he's received — including from Chicago Cubs' Anthony Rizzo.  Henry Sembdner was attacked on Feb. 3 allegedly by a classmate who was angry that the pair had bumped into each other, PIX11 News' sister station WGN reports.  He suffered facial fractures and injuries to his brain.

There was no mention of the attacker's description in this article.  Therefore, the assailant must be black.  Prove me wrong.

Violence in the Halls, Disorder in the Malls.  If Donald Trump wants to make schools safe again, he must rescind the Obama administration's diktats regarding classroom discipline, which are based on a fantasy version of reality that is having serious real-world consequences.  The Obama Justice and Education Departments have strong-armed schools across the country to all but eliminate the suspension and expulsion of insubordinate students.  The reason?  Because black students are disciplined at higher rates than whites.  According to Washington bureaucrats, such disproportionate suspensions can mean only one thing:  teachers and administrators are racist.  The Obama administration rejects the proposition that black students are more likely to assault teachers or fight with other students in class.

VIDEO: Race Riot Breaks Out At Maryland High School After Black Students Jump Hispanics.  A brutal fight at a high school in Prince George's County put three students in the hospital on Friday [12/16/2016].  The lunch room brawl at Central High School was caught on camera and shows a large number of students attacking each other as three adults try to break it up.  A spokesperson for Prince George's County Public Schools said a group of African-American students assaulted a group of Hispanic students.

Violent 'racially motivated' fight is caught on video in high school cafeteria.  An incredibly violent fight at a Maryland high school has left three students hospitalized.  Shocking footage shows the brawl at Capitol Heights' Central High School, with students punching each other, hurling one another to the ground and screaming while adults try to stop them.  The fight broke out Friday when a group of African-American students attacked a group of Hispanic students, a school district spokesperson told Fox 5 . The school said the incident may have been racially motivated.

White schoolgirls say black gang racially targeted them in bus attack.  Four white 15-year-old Catholic schoolgirl friends laughing and chatting on their usual bus ride home were targeted in an unprovoked, racial attack that left them bloody and bruised, the teens told The [New York] Post Wednesday [11/23/2016].  "Oh, white girl got money!" a young black man sitting with a friend commented as the girls travelled on the BX8 bus around 3 p.m.  Tuesday after dismissal from St.  Catharine's Academy in the Pelham Gardens section of The Bronx.  Before they knew it, the boys called up some female friends, who boarded a few stops away — and the girls said the group punched and kicked them while grabbing clumps of their hair.

'She Doesn't Want to be White Anymore': 12yo Girl Bullied at Kansas City School for Being White.  After being violently attacked twice in two weeks because of her race, the mother of a 12-year-old girl attending a school in Kansas City where whites are a minority says her daughter "doesn't want to be white anymore."

Kansas City mom says students targeted, attacked her daughter because of her skin color.  A metro mom feels helpless after police say her daughter was attacked at school.  The mother said students are targeting her daughter because of her skin color.  Police say a 12-year-old girl was punched in the face at school by another student Monday [11/14/2016] at the Frontier School of Excellence off 56th Street and Troost in Kansas City.  Chandis Kee said this is the second time in two weeks her daughter was attacked, and she said it's because of her race.

Blacks and Politicians.  Education is vital to upward mobility.  Most schools labeled as "persistently dangerous" are schools with predominantly black populations.  At many schools, students are required to walk through metal detectors and place their book bags and purses on a conveyor belt that goes through an X-ray machine.  Armed police patrol the school to try to stem school violence.  But even with a police presence, teachers, staff and students are assaulted.  A policy that permanently removes troublemakers would make a greater impact on black education than anything a U.S. president could do.  The fact that black parents, teachers and civil rights organizations tolerate and make excuses for the despicable and destructive behavior of so many young blacks is a gross betrayal of the memory, struggle, sacrifice, sweat, tears and blood of our ancestors.  The sorry and tragic state of black education is not going to be turned around until there's a change in what's acceptable and unacceptable behavior by young people.  That change could come only from within the black community.

Four Selma High School Students Arrested after Pregnant Student Attacked.  Selma police say four students have been arrested after a pregnant classmate was attacked inside Selma High School.  Police say the four students jumped the victim during class this morning.  She was taken to the hospital, but no word yet on her or her baby's condition.  Police say two teachers who tried to break up the fight were also assaulted.

If you don't pay attention in school, you can expect to live on the street someday.
Letter from a white teacher.  I taught for one year in a black school.  I grew up in the South Bronx and never felt racism between the working class dads and moms of all colors who lived side by side.  In 2004, I had a rude awakening when my students called me "Cracker B----" and other unmentionable names on a daily basis, refused to let me teach them anything, and howled and carried on all day long.  I got them precious time in the computer lab to do the the state test tutorials, and they tried to get through the firewall to look up pics of "Lil Kim" and did a riot in the room destroying some equipment.  They did a sort of rap all day long and didn't want any knowledge seeping through.  Class treats turned into class chaos.  I was the enemy, no matter how hard I tried.  Finally a sixth grader threatened to kill me and explained how he was going to do it.  A meeting was called and the black VP told me I "didn't understand as I wasn't part of the community".  I replied that I thought we all lived in the same county and had the same goals for the kids to succeed and I was laughed out of the meeting.

School bus assault
Video: 17 Year-Old Boy Assaults 5 Year-Old Girl On School Bus.  Race had nothing to do with this incident.  The little girl being white had nothing to do with why the 17 year-old boy hit her.  But one thing is for certain, if the little girl had been black, and the 17 year-old boy had been white, the school bus would likely be in flames right now.  Yet for some strange reason, much of the media is ignoring this story.


Federal Racial Discipline Quotas Create Chaos In St. Paul Schools.  Just days after the last school bell rang, a dramatic uprising of teachers, parents, and school board members ousted [St. Paul] Superintendent Valeria Silva.  Silva's approach to school discipline sparked the revolt.  Her policies, initiated in 2010, launched the St. Paul schools on a downward spiral of chaos and violence.  In December 2015, Ramsey County attorney John Choi labeled the situation "a public health crisis."  In 2015, assaults on teachers in St. Paul schools reported to his office tripled compared to 2014, and were up 36 percent over the previous four-year average.  On Silva's watch, the city's high schools have become menacing places where gangs of out-of-control teens prowl the halls, and "classroom invasions" by students settling private disputes are commonplace.  Tumultuous brawls are a fact of life.  Today, fights that "might have been between two individuals" can grow into "melees involving up to 40 or 50 people," according to Steve Linders, a St. Paul police spokesman.  Roving packs often attack individuals, and police have had to use chemical irritants to break up what they call "riots."

Boston authorities search for suspect in deadly shooting outside high school.  Authorities in Boston are searching for a suspect in a daylight shooting near a high school that left one student dead and three others wounded on Wednesday [6/8/2016].  The shooting took place near Jeremiah E. Burke High school in the city's Dorchester neighborhood just after a fire alarm went off in school.  "We don't know whether it was just a fight that spilled out of the school.  Unfortunately, as we know now, kids don't fight anymore with their hands.  They run and get weapons," Police Commissioner William Evans said in an afternoon news conference.

Students involved in deadly attack near California high school, officials say.  Authorities say one person is dead and another hospitalized after a shooting and stabbing near a San Francisco Bay Area high school.  The East Bay Times reports Thursday [5/26/2016] that investigators are working to identify three potential suspects.  No arrests were reported.  The names and ages of the victims have not been released.  One victim had a gunshot wound to the left side of his chest and an exit wound to his back.  The victim who died had a gunshot wound to the head and stab wounds.

5th grader savagely attacks 1st grader in Henry Co. school bathroom.  A vicious attack in an elementary school bathroom sends a 6-year-old to the emergency room, and her parents tell police it was a fifth grade girl who attacked her.  The girl was at home recovering Thursday night, but her mother says she knows exactly who attacked her 1st grade daughter.  She warned the school that the fifth grader was a danger last week.

Keeping parents in the dark on the safety crisis in city schools.  City Hall is keeping parents in the dark about a growing school-safety crisis.  Susan Edelman gave the lowdown in Sunday's [5/15/2016] [New York] Post.  New NYPD data contradict Mayor de Blasio's repeated assertions that city schools are safe.  Over 1,750 weapons have been recovered in the past 10 months — up 26 percent over last year.  Greg Floyd, the head of the school-safety-agents' union, accuses City Hall and the NYPD School Safety Division of whitewashing school-crime reports.  The union has exposed multiple scary cases this year — including an 11-year-old waving a loaded gun at another student.

With Apologies to Nathan Hale.  [Scroll down]  In St. Paul, Minn., two high school students punched and body-slammed a teacher who had complained about lenient disciplinary policies that had led to assaults against teachers.  Both students were black, all the beaten-up teachers were white.  The Obama administration has threatened school districts with lawsuits and funding cuts if the school punishes the perpetrators.

Black Mob Viciously Beats Blonde Girl at School (Guess What Happened To The Thugs?)  This footage is going viral, and it will make your jaw drop in shock.  What would you do if this happened to your daughter?  Not only that, but according to the video caption, none of the students involved have been disciplined by school officials.

Girl, 15, dies after assault in Delaware HS bathroom.  A 16-year-old Delaware high school sophomore died Thursday morning [4/21/2016] after a fight broke out in a restroom involving several female students.  Family members identified the victim as Amy Francis-Joyner.  She had gotten involved in a confrontation involving two other students at Wilmington's Howard High School of Technology, spokeswoman Kathy K. Demarest said in a statement.  She said no weapons were involved and police were questioning other students.  Francis-Joyner was pronounced dead at A.I. DuPont Children's Hospital, where she had been airlifted in critical condition, police spokeswoman Sgt. Andrea Janvier said.

Pictured: Girl, 16, who died at school after being 'jumped by a gang of bullies' who slammed her head against a sink in the bathroom.  A 16-year-old girl, who died after getting into a fight with another girl over a boy, was jumped by bullies who slammed her head against a bathroom sink at a school in Delaware Thursday morning [4/21/2016]. [...] Students who witnessed the deadly scuffle said that the 16-year-old and another girl started fighting in one of the women's bathrooms over a boy, when a gang of other girls jumped the victim.

Another motive for homeschooling:
Mom: Son Was Attacked, Injured by Classmates and School Never Told Me.  A mother says that her 13-year-old son was left cross-eyed after being attacked by fellow students, and she's questioning how school officials handled the situation.  Amanda Anderson, whose son Dustin Johnson is a seventh-grader at Livingston Junior High in Livingston, Texas, told Fox 26 that Dustin woke up on March 29 seeing double and with blurred vision.  After questioning what happened to her son, Anderson says school officials eventually showed her video of Dustin being attacked by several classmates.

Parents Sue NYC Education Department Over Violence in Schools.  Several New York City parents and students have filed a class-action lawsuit against the city Department of Education alleging the nation's largest school district has failed to protect children from violence and bullying.  A group of 11 students and 10 parents announced the lawsuit outside the DOE headquarters during a rally with the pro-charter school group Families for Excellent Schools Thursday [4/7/2016], alleging that the district had denied students the right to public education without the threat of violence.

Is there really a "right to public education" — with or without threats of violence?

Glen Oaks High Student Arrested for Assaulting Teacher.  The East Baton Rouge Sheriff's Office arrested 18-year-old Renetta N. Thomas, a student at Glen Oaks High School, after Thomas reportedly assaulted a teacher on campus February 18th.  According to a report, the teacher observed Thomas skipping class and ordered her to go back to class.  Thomas became "very irate as usual with her cursing being disrespectful."  The teacher called the front office and requested the school's discipline administrator to come and handle the situation.  Thomas left the scene prior to the administrator's arrival.  The teacher completed write-up form on Thomas for her actions.  A few minutes later, while the same teacher was teaching another class, Thomas entered the classroom and kicked a desk very hard causing it to fly across the room.  Thomas then yelled "bitch you got me suspended!  Ima beat your ass now," according to the report.  Thomas then picked up a garbage can and threw it at the teacher, who was able to move and avoid being struck.  Thomas then left the scene.

Video shows teacher being punched by student at Hunters Lane H.S.  A video making the rounds on the Internet shows a teacher being punched in the face by a student at one of Nashville's largest high schools.  The incident, first posted to YouTube, happened Tuesday [3/1/2016] morning at Hunters Lane High School in North Nashville.  In the video, captured by a cell phone, the student is seen punching the teacher in the face. [...] In a statement to News 2, [Metro Schools spokesman Joe] Bass said, "The student involved was disciplined appropriately, though Federal privacy laws bar us from publicly stating what that discipline was.["]

Why does federal law protect the privacy of violent criminals in schools?

Racial gaps found in Wake County student arrests, suspensions.  The Wake County school board will discuss Tuesday [2/16/2016] racial disparities in student arrest and suspension rates in North Carolina's largest school system.  The work session agenda includes a report showing that the odds of being arrested for fighting are 1.67 times higher for Wake's black students as compared to other students.  The report also shows that the odds of being arrested for theft are 1.7 times for black students as compared to other students.  Additionally, black students accounted for 69 percent of the referrals made by school resource officers to the adult criminal justice system, juvenile petitions, teen court, and other restorative programs.

The Editor says...
None of that should be construed as conclusive evidence that blacks are being treated unfairly.

Police: Gun owner saved cop from attack by kids.  Police are crediting a vigilant gun owner with saving the life of an Upper Darby cop Friday [2/12/2016] after he saw the officer being attacked and surrounded by a large group of teens.  "There were 40 kids.  If it wasn't for the good Samaritan stepping forward, he'd have been dead meat," Upper Darby Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood said.  "There's no doubt they would have attacked him."

Obama's Hug-A-Thug Policies Backfire In NYC, St. Paul Schools.  New York public schools are dealing with escalating classroom chaos after adopting minority-friendly discipline policies that the Education Department pushed to close so-called "racial disparities" in suspensions and expulsions.  Educrats have been threatening school districts with lawsuits and funding cuts wherever if finds disparities.  High-school kids are getting "warning cards" for offenses that normally would result in a criminal summons and suspension, such as drug possession and disorderly conduct.  Liberal New York Mayor Bill de Blasio says crime is down in the schools, but it's not.  It's just that schools are ignoring it.  The only thing that's down is suspensions.

Teen Busted for blowing smoke in teachers face.  The Arkansas student who lit a cigar in class and then repeatedly blew smoke in his teacher's face was arrested yesterday [1/18/2016] on a harassment charge, police report.  Christopher Dunn, 18, was busted Monday morning [1/18/2016] on the misdemeanor charge and booked into the Pulaski County jail.  He was later released after posting $2500 bond.  Dunn was collared in connection with a December 14 incident at North Little Rock High School.

Racial bean-counting is making schools unsafe.  President Obama's acting secretary of education, John King, hijacked Martin Luther King Jr. Day to accuse public schools of racism because black students are punished more often and more harshly than others.  The Obama administration has been threatening school districts with lawsuits and federal-funding cuts wherever it finds "racial disparities" in who gets suspended or expelled.  But racism isn't to blame.  Black students misbehave more often.  Tragically, school administrators are so fearful of saying it that they're being intimidated into ceding control of classrooms to violent, disruptive students.  That's the story in New York City, where serious crimes in schools are soaring.

My year of terror and abuse teaching at a NYC high school.  There's nothing dry or academic here.  It's tragedy and farce, an economic and societal indictment of a system that seems broken beyond repair.  The book is certain to be controversial.  There's something dilettante-ish, if not cynical, about a well-off, middle-aged white man stepping ever so briefly into this maelstrom of poverty, abuse, homelessness and violence and emerging with a book deal.  What [Ed] Boland has to share, however, makes his motives irrelevant.  Names and identifying details have been changed, but the school Boland calls Union Street is, according to clues and public records, the Henry Street School of International Studies on the Lower East Side.

High school cancels season after 3 players charged with rape.  After three basketball players were charged with raping a teammate in an apparent hazing incident, a Tennessee high school has taken the unusual step of canceling the rest of the season, officials say.

Rest Of Season Called Off For Ooltewah High Boys Basketball Due To Rape Investigation.  County School Supt. Rick Smith said Wednesday night [1/6/2016] that the rest of the season for the Ooltewah High School basketball team has been canceled due to the ongoing rape investigation.  He said it was necessary to aid the investigation of aggravated rape charges against three team members against a 15-year-old teammate.  Supt. Smith said there had been no wrongdoing found against any adult in the case.

Baltimore Schools Are More Afraid of Students Than Its Police Force.  As Baltimore awaits a verdict in the trial of William Porter, the first officer tried in the death of Freddie Gray, city leaders seem particularly afraid of one group of its residents:  its students.  At least, that's what many are concluding after a letter to parents from the city's school chief was made public on Monday [12/14/2015].  Dr. Gregory Thornton, Baltimore City Public Schools CEO wrote the letter to warn families that no violence will be tolerated in the wake of the verdict, which could come down this week.  But Thornton seems to have an especially broad definition of what actually constitutes violence.  "Students need to understand that we support their right to express their emotions, and that we will facilitate opportunities for them to do so appropriately," the CEO wrote.  "However, we need to make it clear that student walkouts, vandalism, civil disorder, and any form of violence are not acceptable under any circumstances."

At Washington High, a teacher's beating is the final straw.  A brutal assault on a teacher at George Washington High School led to the removal Tuesday of the troubled school's principal, Philadelphia School District officials confirmed.  Hoping to quiet a culture of violent incidents, district officials reassigned Gene Jones a day after the attack, which occurred during third period Monday morning [12/7/2015], midway through a ninth-grade biology lesson.  The classroom door — usually locked against intruders — was open, allowing a handful of students to walk paperwork across the hallway, according to someone with firsthand knowledge of the incident.

Attack on teacher rekindles the worst memories.  Frank Burd hadn't heard the news about the George Washington High School teacher pummeled this week by three students, being held down and punched in the face, in a dispute over a cellphone.  But his reaction was visceral.  "[... A] concussion is serious," Burd said Wednesday [12/9/2015].  "I feel so much for this guy.  One minute, everything is normal, and the next, you're in the hospital."  Burd, a former math teacher at Germantown High School, has been there — attacked in 2007 by students angry that he had tried to confiscate an iPod.  He suffered a broken neck and a brain injury that has divided his life into before and after.

Teachers Union Threatens Strike After Two St. Paul Central Staffers [were] Hurt Breaking Up [a] Fight.  Two students have now been charged after two employees were hurt breaking up a cafeteria fight at St. Paul's Central High School.  Investigators say the fight, which happened Friday, Dec. 4, started between two students and was about who had better football statistics.  The fight involved a 15-year-old student.  During the fight, his 16-year-old brother jumped in to help, and a science teacher intervened to stop the older brother from getting involved.  Police say the 16-year-old then shoved the teacher's face into a wall, breaking his glasses.  An assistant principal also said he saw the 16-year-old pick up the teacher in a strangulation hold, lift him in the air and forcefully slam him on his back onto a cafeteria chair and table.  The student then got on top of the teacher and started choking him, and he then hit him in the face and neck repeatedly, according to the complaint.

Two Black Students Posing as White Threaten To Shoot Up Their Schools.  It's really hard to imagine how some allegedly aggrieved person would make up a racial hoax.

Arlington Bowie student arrested by police investigating social media threats.  Shalaria Jones remained in the Arlington Jail Thursday night [11/19/2015] facing one charge of terroristic threat.  Bail was set at $10,000.  Police seized her cellphone and obtained a search warrant that linked her to the tweet sent out Tuesday morning, said Lt. Chris Cook, an Arlington police spokesman.

A Creepy, Coercive Turn For Campus Protests.  As campuses erupt with protests and the TV cameras pan the crowds, an informal survey among the IBD editorial board members finds that pretty much every college student we know of is so busy studying that he or she has no time for or interest in protesting, no matter what the cause.  To the far left, schooled in Alinskyite coercion, that's unacceptable. [...] At Columbia, kids are being coerced into joining protests whether they like it or not, as noted by Rick Moran, writing for the American Thinker.  At Dartmouth, it's even worse — kids are being disturbed if they study, with in-your-face violent pushing, shoving and screaming right in the campus library.

My Letter to Dartmouth's President.  You say that "we have received no complaints of physical violence" and therefore, apparently, you have no problem with the conduct of the protesters, which included threatening and screaming racist abuse at students who were peacefully studying, in an effort to "shut down" the library.  Is racist abuse now acceptable at Dartmouth, as long as no one is actually punched?  That sets the bar ridiculously low, and appears to represent a change in policy.  I never expected to see a scene straight out of 1930s Germany in my beloved Baker Library, but that apparently, in your view, is now the norm.

Why some LAUSD teachers are balking at a new approach to discipline problems.  It's another day of disruption on this campus in the Los Angeles Unified School District, which has been nationally hailed by the White House and others for its leadership in promoting more progressive school-discipline policies.  The nation's second-largest school system was the first in California to ban suspensions for defiance and announced plans to roll out an alternative known as restorative justice, which seeks to resolve conflicts through talking circles and other methods to build trust.

LA Unified teachers: Suspension ban creating unruly classes.  Teachers in the nation's second largest school district say a new policy aimed at reducing suspensions is also having another effect:  More unruly students in their classrooms.

Wow.  Who could have predicted that outcome?  Everybody!

Want to see what goes on in a classroom where there is no security? Just watch.  Here's a video by a bunch of high school delinquents who went after a teacher who would not fight back.  They mocked her, videoed her and abused her.  Why the woman didn't stand up to these beasts is unfathomable to me.  Is your job worth that kind of treatment?

Teen can face trial on murder charge: Massachusetts judge.  A Massachusetts judge on Wednesday [11/4/2015] ruled that a teenager accused of murdering a teacher at his high school is competent to stand trial, despite arguments from his attorneys that the 16-year-old defendant had shown signs of mental disturbance.

Student slams principal to floor during cafeteria melee caught on video.  Three Sacramento-area high school students were arrested after a principal was slammed to the floor during a melee that was recorded on video and posted to social media.  Two 15-year-olds and a 13-year-old face serious charges, including making threats to students and law enforcement and battery on school staff, in connection with Monday's [10/26/2015] cafeteria brawl at Florin High School, said Sacramento County sheriff's Sgt. Tony Turnbull.

Spring Valley South Carolina — Non-Compliant Student Forcibly Removed By High School Resource Officer.  A black female student at Spring Valley High School was being disruptive in class.  The student refused to leave after a teacher asked her to.  A School administrator, also black, was called to the room, and also asked the student to leave, and she refused again.  Finally, the school resource police officer (white guy) was called to the room.  The officer requested compliance the student refused twice.  The officer forcibly removed the student and placed her under arrest.

Feds probing videotaped arrest of disruptive student.  The Justice Department opened a civil rights investigation Tuesday [10/27/2015] after a deputy flipped a student backward in her desk and tossed her across the floor for refusing to leave her math class.

Deputy fired for throwing South Carolina student, even though 'she started this,' sheriff says.  The white South Carolina deputy who threw a black student across a high school classroom has been fired for using inappropriate force, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said Wednesday [10/28/2015].  "The maneuver that he used was not based on the training or was acceptable," Lott said of Richland County Senior Deputy Ben Fields, who had worked as an officer at Spring Valley High School in Columbia for seven years.  "That is not proper technique and should not be used in law enforcement."

The Spring Valley Arrest Video Isn't Disturbing: Here's Why.  According to local reporting, [Senior Deputy Ben] Fields was called to the classroom after the student had refused to leave the room, first at the request of the teacher and then at the request of an administrator.  A longer video shows Fields asking the student if she'll leave, she refuses, he reaches down and says, "I'm going to get you up," she appears to resist, then the officer escalates his use of force:  [Video clip]  No one was injured in the fracas, but the media immediately identified it as an example of a white police officer brutalizing a black youth.

The Viral Videos the Anti-Police Left Won't Publicize.  Narratives of oppression are simple; life is complicated.  After the Internet lit up over video of a South Carolina police officer dragging a high-school student from her desk, tossing her to the ground, and handcuffing her, the Left instinctively began making its "larger points" about the "school-to-prison pipeline," police brutality, and institutional racism.  It was the launching pad for another "national conversation" on the Left's terms, about one of the Left's favorite topics:  the big, bad, racist police.  Yet videos from other schools show more complex realities.

Student walkout backs fired deputy at S.C. school.  About 100 students at a South Carolina high school walked out of class briefly Friday [10/30/2015] to show support for a school resource officer fired after video showed him throwing an uncooperative black female student across the floor, according to local media and Twitter feeds.  The students walked out of classes at Spring Valley HIgh School in Columbia, S.C., around 10 a.m. and gathered in the atrium to express their views on the firing of Deputy Ben Fields.

Students Stage Walkout In Support Of Deputy Fired Over Viral Video.  Hundreds of students at Spring Valley High School in Columbia, S.C. staged a brief walkout on Friday in support of the school resource officer and football coach who was fired earlier this week after video emerged of him dragging a female student out of her desk and slamming her onto the ground.  The students donned t-shirts reading "Free Fields" and "#BringBackFields" in support of the officer, Ben Fields.

High school teen who defended a blind classmate who was being beaten by a bully is suspended and kicked off football team.  A California teenager has been hailed as a hero after he rushed to help a blind classmate being beaten up by a bully.  Shocking footage of the attack, filmed by a bystander, shows the 'visually impaired' student being repeatedly hit round the head during lunch break at Huntington Beach High School, California on Wednesday [9/23/2015].  The assault only ends when the high school intervenes by knocking the bully to the ground with a single punch.

Attack on Teachers.  The ongoing and escalating assault on primary- and secondary-school teachers is not a pretty sight.  Holly Houston is a post-traumatic stress specialist.  She counsels teachers in Chicago public schools and reported, "Of the teachers that I have counseled over the years who have been assaulted, 100 percent of them have satisfied diagnostic criteria for PTSD."  It's not just big-city schoolteachers traumatized.  Dr. Darlyne Nemeth, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, said last year, "I have treated many teachers with PTSD, and I am currently following a few of them." [...] School violence is going to get worse.  Last year, the Obama administration sent all the school districts in the country a letter warning them to avoid racial bias when suspending or expelling students.

Prosecutors: Two Former NJ Day Care Workers Ran 'Fight Club' For Kids Aged 4-6.  Two New Jersey women faced charges Monday [8/31/2015] for allegedly staging a "fight club" among boys and girls at a day care center, Union County prosecutors said.  As CBS2's Christine Sloan reported, investigators said the former day care workers — Erica Kenny, 22, of Cranford, and Chanese White, 28, of Roselle — referenced the movie "Fight Club" as they encouraged preschoolers and kindergartners to fight each other on the playground at Lightbridge Academy in Cranford last month.

Why Home Schooling?  Many public primary and secondary schools are dangerous places.  The Justice Department's Bureau of Justice Statistics and the Department of Education's National Center for Education Statistics show that in 2012, there were about 749,200 violent assaults on students.  In the 2011-12 academic year, there were a record 209,800 primary- and secondary-school teachers who reported being physically attacked by a student.  Nationally, an average of 1,175 teachers and staff were physically attacked, including being knocked out, each day of that school year.  In Baltimore, each school day in 2010, an average of four teachers and staff were assaulted.  Each year, roughly 10 percent of primary- and secondary-school teachers are threatened with bodily harm.  Many public schools not only are dangerous but produce poor educational results.

Black Violence in Schools: White People to Blame.  The Tampa Bay Times just figured out why local black schools are a hot mess of chaos, violence and danger.  White people did it.  Which, of course, is the same reason why black schools are also violent and dangerous in Baltimore, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Milwaukee, Los Angeles, Chicago, Detroit, Rochester, Utica, Albany, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Harrisburg ... this is a very long list.  The Times documented how black violence in epic amounts is directed at students, parents, teachers, administrators, vendors, neighbors, bus drivers, — pretty much anyone who gets anywhere close to these black schools.

13-year-old charged with raping girl on school bus.  Officials say a 13-year-old boy attacked a 7-year-old girl on a Chimacum school bus and has been charged with three counts of first-degree rape.

Guess which five-letter adjective (starts with B, ends with ack) is absent from this article.
Four students face charges of raping mentally disabled girl at North Miami Senior High.  Near the end of a school day early this year at North Miami Senior High, a student approached one of his classmates — a mentally disabled teenage girl in a job training program.  He told her she was pretty and asked her to follow him, leading her to another boy who took her hand.  They slipped into a janitor's closet, closed the door, turned out the lights and — joined by three other boys — gang raped her, according to arrest forms.  One boy told her not to tell, but she did after a security guard caught them leaving the closet.  The girl later told Miami-Dade school police the boys "forced her to perform oral, anal and vaginal sex acts."

Phila. police arrest 5 MLK High teens in beating that went viral.  Philadelphia police have arrested five students from Martin Luther King High School who earlier this month kicked and punched another student — knocking out several of his teeth — in an attack that was recorded and posted online Thursday [6/25/2015].  The video, showing teenagers repeatedly beating a classmate June 5 while shouting taunts, was posted on the popular website MediaTakeOut.com.  At one point, the student was hit in the face with a traffic cone, knocking out his teeth.

Again, guess uess which five-letter adjective is absent from this article.  Here are some hints:  Philadelphia.  Martin Luther King High School.  Five-against-one fight.

This incident is posted in this section because it took place at an elementary school.
Reward Now $1,250 For Information on This Attack.  The video of this attack has been viewed by approximately 10,000,000 people on various platforms.  Obviously there is a lot of attention; unfortunately, no strong leads.

Update:
Brutal Beating Location and Video Uploader Identified — Rowlett, Texas.  Police today reported the actual attack took place on Friday June 19th — but it was not until video surfaced on 6/24 that the youngest victim, 3-years-old, was witnessed suffering injury from the attack — That aspect raises the attack to felony charges.  Fox News Dallas aired a segment on the incident tonight at 9pm — and the local Dallas media affiliate has been made aware of the culprit identification.  Police Detective Cruz Hernandez now has all the details. [...] The police do not consider this attack to contain any racial connotations.

The Editor says...
The Rowlett police very quickly pronounced that the incident was not a hate crime and had no racial connotations, even before the suspect was identified, let alone interviewed.  A bigger pack of lies would be difficult to find (without the internet).  Everybody in the video is black, other than the victims.  All the participants, revelers and cheerleaders are black, as is the photographer.  Why else would the cameras be recording unless a violent Facebook-worthy attack was imminent?

Oakland Schools: Students who act up, mouth off won't be suspended.  The Oakland Unified School District has approved a controversial move to eliminate kicking students out of school for swearing at teachers and ignoring instructions.  The school board voted unanimously on Wednesday [5/13/2015] to no longer allow teachers and administrators to suspend students out of class for non-violent offenses.  The new policy is expected to be in full effect next July.

Disparate Impact — Too Many Black Students Suspended Leads Oakland Schools to Stop Punishment Completely.  When a corrections system focuses entirely on equality of outcome; and when the administrators of the policy are wilfully blind (in that they never addresses the source behavior); and when the non-compliant variables within the system refuse to modify behavior — the only administrative option left is to remove the consequence.  FYI the racial composition of Oakland's public school system is about 32 percent black, a little under 40 percent Hispanic, about 15 percent Asian and about 12 percent white, according to Oaklandreads.org.

Black Student Arrests in Jefferson Decried in New Complaint.  African-American students are disproportionately arrested and subjected to discrimination in Jefferson Parish public schools, even moreso now than three years ago, according to a complaint the Southern Poverty Law Center filed Thursday (May 7) on behalf of four black students.  The new information is a supplement to the law center's 2012 complaint, which also accused Jefferson of discrimination.  New data show that in the 2013-14 academic year, black students comprised 80 percent of all school-based arrests and law enforcement referrals, even though they made up only about 42 percent of Jefferson's enrollment.

IPS investigates high school fight caught on camera.  Indianapolis Public Schools is investigating a fight caught on camera.  The video was first uploaded onto YouTube and has been viewed hundreds of times across social media.  Cellphone video captured what happened as dozens of Northwest High School students were trying to get to class Tuesday [5/5/2015].  A teenage girl is seen on camera stopping in the middle of the hallway as she is confronted by a fellow classmate.  That classmate, a boy, appears to throw the first punch, pushing her against the lockers as she quickly falls to the ground.

Conservatives Blind to Racism, says RedState Seer.  [Scroll down]  At nearby Chesapeake High School, video shows large groups of black people fighting and destroying property a few days before the Morgan State gig.  Parents say it happens a lot there.  In Houston, also last week, a large group of black people fought in the cafeteria at Westfield High School.  On video.  The parents say it happens a lot there.  School officials told Channel 2 news they are working on developing "conflict resolution skills" for the students.

How liberal discipline policies are making schools less safe.  New York public-school students caught stealing, doing drugs or even attacking someone can avoid suspension under new "progressive" discipline rules adopted this month.  Most likely, they will be sent to a talking circle instead, where they can discuss their feelings.  Convinced traditional discipline is racist because blacks are suspended at higher rates than whites, New York City's Department of Education has in all but the most serious and dangerous offenses replaced out-of-school suspensions with a touchy-feely alternative punishment called "restorative justice," which isn't really punishment at all.  It's therapy.

Teachers fear for their lives because of administration's hands off blacks guidelines.  President Obama didn't dare mention the situation at Richmond, Virginia's Martin Luther King Middle School during his oh-so-eloquent Selma speech last Saturday.  The mess at MLK is being played out in majority-black schools across the country.  On March 6, an NBC affiliate reported that MLK, a school with 731 students and 99% black, had 1,635 disorderly incidents in 2014.  The kicker?  The $40-million state-of-the-art middle school opened in January of the same year.  The writing was on the wall in May 2014, when teachers at MLK wrote an extensive e-mail to a local TV station saying they feared for their lives.

Louisiana teen accused of knocking school bus driver unconscious.  One Louisiana teen has been charged with assault and another with saving the day:  The first knocked a school bus driver unconscious and the second prevented the bus from crashing.

Univ Drops Racial Descriptions From Crime Alerts; Sheriff Clarke Reacts!  The University of Minnesota has dropped racial descriptions from campus crime alerts, after students protested for weeks about campus diversity.  Student groups pressured the university to stop sending campus-wide crime alerts using vague racial descriptions of suspects in serious crimes.

Basketball coach body-slams teacher in student-faculty game.  It was all fun and games until a basketball coach body slammed a teacher to the ground in a student-faculty basketball game.  Police arrested 27-year-old Travis Mims on aggravated battery charges after the incident at Holly Hill School where he was the basketball coach and a campus adviser.

White Maryland School Teacher Beaten Bloody By Black Student.  Maryland, the most progressive and race-driven Marxist state within the union.  Time and time again Maryland shows up as a hotbed of racial violence.  In this latest attack another school teacher was brutally beaten and left bloodied on the floor.  The media claim a "racially insensitive" remark provoked the student to attack.  In Maryland a "racially insensitive remark" could be the teacher saying "all lives matter", that's enough.

Paterson freshman charged with assault after classroom attack on teacher.  A ninth-grader at John F. Kennedy High School in Paterson was arrested Friday and charged with assaulting a teacher in a classroom.  The attack, captured on video, shows the teen slamming the 62-year-old educator to the floor in front of other students in an effort to get his cellphone back.

Documented: Black Students Target Teachers for Violence.  If all you knew about racial violence came from the protestors at a Manhattan Sunday brunch, you would know that black people are victims of relentless white violence.  In the real world, black mob violence and black-on-white crime are astronomically out of proportion.  Especially in schools.  Especially directed at teachers.  Especially this week in Monroe, Yonkers, Little Rock, and Buffalo.

A betrayal of the civil rights struggle.  During the 2003-04 school year, only 52 of the nation's 92,000 public schools were labeled "persistently dangerous," a designation under the No Child Left Behind Act entitling students to move to an alternate "safe" school.  Philadelphia had 14 schools labeled as "persistently dangerous" and Baltimore had six. … School violence, including assaults on teachers and staff, is not restricted to inner city schools but occurs also in suburban and rural schools.  However, the bulk of the violence is at schools with large black populations.

Black mob violence — in Kindergarden?  And the cops even charged 8 black people with rioting.  Started at a Kindergarten graduation, next thing you know a "very ugly brawl" starts, then spills outside.

Black on white violence in the schools.  The word bullying is often used to obfuscate.  Not illuminate.  In this case, it covered up significant and intense black mob violence in this school.  And it is happening all over the country.

NYC's most dangerous schools.  Students at the Brooklyn Academy of Global Finance in Bedford-Stuyvesant face routine bullying, gang activity and a generally unsafe campus, according to the city's 2011 School Survey.  "The kids run wild, and the teachers are scared," said an administrator at the high school who asked to remain anonymous.  "It's like there are no rules here at all," she added.

High School Basketball Player Attacks Ref.  A video of what not to do when you don't like a ref's call has been circulating the Internet.  In a game between Florida high school teams Arcadia DeSoto and Port Charlotte, DeSoto's Mason Holland shoved a Port Charlotte player, and then, after a technical foul was called on him, went ballistic and threw the referee to the floor.

Education Cutbacks and Urban Violence.  Bloated public education budgets in our large cities may be immune from serious cuts for an unpalatable reason:  the threat of urban violence. ... Difficult budgetary choices entail an element that dare not speak its name:  cutbacks may risk 1960s style riots, and these costs may far exceed temporary savings.  To be blunt, cities often solved riot problems via bloated education-related employment, and bereft of these jobs, cities may return to "long hot summers".

Black Education:  According to the National Center for Education Statistics, nationally during 2007-2008, more than 145,000 teachers were physically attacked.  Six percent of big-city schools report verbal abuse of teachers and 18 percent report non-verbal disrespect for teachers.  An earlier NCES study found that 18 percent of the nation's schools accounted for 75 percent of the reported incidents of violence, and 6.6 percent accounted for 50 percent.  So far as serious violence, murder and rapes, 1.9 percent of schools reported 50 percent of the incidents.  The preponderance of school violence occurs in big-city schools attended by black students.

Overhauling D.C. School Overcome by Violence.  D.C. Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee has dispatched a team of administrators and extra security to an Anacostia middle school where three teachers have been assaulted, a 14-year-old was charged with carrying a shotgun and students have run the hallways discharging fire extinguishers. ... "Kids sitting on desks, coming into classrooms and knocking over books, cussing, running through the halls," said Timothy Favors, who has visited Hart on multiple occasions because his son, a sixth-grader, is getting poor grades after doing well at Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School.  "This isn't a school I would recommend for anyone.  You could have a perfectly normal child, and he would get flipped here like a pancake."

Teacher still out after beating by student.  Vanesta Marshall, a home economics teacher at Worthing who is 5 feet 4 inches tall, said she remembers a ninth-grade male student punching her in the face two or three times before she blacked out Friday [5/11/2007]. ... She said school officials didn't inform her about the student's discipline history.  "We're just regular-ed teachers," she said.  "We don't know how to handle violent behavior."

Video of the moment boy is brutally beaten on school bus.  When Lora Hoagland was fighting to make buses to and from Franklin Township schools in Indiana free for all families, she didn't think her son's very trip to class would land him in the hospital.  It all started when Caleb Jones, 14, unwittingly sat in the seat of a violent classmate, 15, who decided to push, punch and berate when he did not get up while the bus was moving.  A video of the incident was posted on Facebook by the attacker, in which he bragged 'dat wassnt nun'.

Barred from discipline: Bibb County teachers unable to control students under current rules.  After 18-year-old Jaqavius Holloway threatened to shoot one of his teachers at Northeast High School in February, he was charged with making terroristic threats and disrupting public school.  As one of his bail conditions, the judge told him, "I don't care if the school calls and invites you onto campus, you are not to go back," prosecutor Elizabeth Bobbitt recalled.  But in May, Holloway showed back up at Northeast, saying he was allowed to return.  No one in the office checked his story, and he had apparently never been expelled.  So he went back to class.  Within a week, he had shoved a pregnant teacher and thrown her cell phone at her, resulting in a battery charge, according to a July indictment.

Teen, 16, punched by student so badly his nose broke off of his skull as other student cheered in locker room.  David Egan says he doesn't even know the student who punched him, and that he was confronted over rumors that he stole the other student's sneakers.  'When he first hit me I actually said out loud, "Wow, you actually sucker-punched me?" because it was just crazy that he actually did that,' Egan told WGCL.  He also told the channel that when he fell, others in the locker room jumped, cheered and laughed at him.

Video: Black Teens Assault White Student on School Bus.  The shaky cell phone video shows a group of black teenage boys punching, knocking down, and kicking a white teenage boy, leaving him dazed and confused on the school bus floor.  The victim of the attack had been riding home from Parkway Academy School near Dover when the assault reportedly began.  The video shows him sitting alone, facing front, when the attack begins from the rear — and continues from the side and the front of the school bus.  "I didn't do nothing," he protests.  The student's uncle found out about the incident and spread the word on Facebook.  [Video clip]

Parents file federal lawsuit over assault on school bus.  The parents of two students involved in school bus assault last fall have filed a federal suit against the Southeast Delco School District, Delaware County Intermediate Unit and a bus driver who allegedly refused to let the boys off the bus or contact authorities about the incident.  Some of the Oct. 9, 2013, altercation between black and white students from The County Alternative School in Middletown was captured on video and made headlines across the country.  The suit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania on behalf of C.J. Buonadonna of Collingdale and Dylan Fonner of Sharon Hill, who were confronted by classmates during the bus ride home from school.

CCSO: Surveillance video shows students throwing rocks, food from school bus.  Charleston County deputies say eight students have been arrested after they were caught on surveillance video throwing rocks and food at passing cars while on their school bus.  According to an incident report, Durham Bus Services notified Septima Clark Academy that several students on bus 529 threw items at a passing vehicles on May 8, causing damage to a truck.  Officers arrived on the scene to find a dent on victim's passenger side roof/window area and "food splashed across the grill, hood, and windshield."  Deputies say none of the students on the bus admitted to throwing things at the truck.

Black crime

Note:  On another nearby page you can find articles about the looting after Hurricane Katrina.

Victims of black crime matter, too.  The Black Lives Matter movement has only focused on how law enforcement treats blacks.  The movement has taken no responsibility for the victims of black criminals, and this is despite the fact that the vast majority of victims at the hands of black criminals are black.  Yet the BLM movement never uses the billions of dollars donated by corporations to care for the victims of black criminals.  Not a word, not an apology, not a regret, not a dollar.

Life Among the Ruins.  Most know that young black males under 30 commit violent crimes at well over 10 times their 3-4 percent demographic of the population — so often victimizing the nonwhite.  All know that reality must remain unmentionable even as its causes need to be debated and discussed if lives are to be saved.  Yet the greater crime seems not the crime itself, but even mentioning crime.

America's Black Male Problem.  Since May 25, 2020, America has crucified itself over a single statistic:  Blacks are two to three times more likely to die at the hands of the police than are whites, making up 25 to 35 percent of police killings.  In contrast, other data points that could add nuance to the conversation are considered by the prestige press to be extremely inappropriate to mention.  For example, the most careful estimate yet of what percentage of murders in America blacks committed in 2021 comes up with a best guess of 64 percent of all cases, cleared and uncleared.  This suggests that blacks are recently an order of magnitude more homicidal than the entire rest of the population (including Hispanics).  This is an astonishing ratio.

Reckless Reparations Reckoning.  Here are 10 reasons why the nation's — and especially California's — discussions of reparatory payouts are dangerous in a multiracial state, and why reparations are not viable either in an insolvent state or a bankrupt nation at large. [...] [#10] In 2020 nearly 10,000 blacks, mostly young males, were murdered, the vast majority by other blacks.  Blacks, who make up about 12 percent of the population account each year for about 50-55 percent of all homicide victims and murderers taken together.  But beyond that, there is an epidemic of disproportionately black violent crimes (over 50 percent of all firearm assaults and juvenile violent crime).  In the black community, over 72 percent of births are out of wedlock, one-parent households account for about 64 percent of all black families, and a third of blacks have felony convictions.  These current challenges might deserve more focus and federal action than simple cash payouts for the sins of the pre-Civil-Rights era.  If there has been any lesson from the $22 trillion record of Great Society compensatory payouts, it is that massive infusions of federal money are more apt to ensure social disruption and dislocation than alleviate them.  In sum, it would be hard to imagine a more volatile idea than racial reparations in our current multiracial society.

Target: 'Organized retail crime' has driven $400 million in extra profit loss this year.  Target stores are getting looted, and it's taking a huge bite out of profits.  The discount retailer told reporters on a call to discuss its third quarter earnings results that inventory shrinkage — or the disappearance of merchandise — has reduced its gross profit margin by $400 million so far in 2022 compared to 2021.  "At Target, year-to-date, incremental shortage has already reduced our gross margin by more than $400 million vs. last year,"  Target CFO Michael Fiddelke said on the earnings call, "and we expect it will reduce our gross margin by more than $600 million for the full year."  Fiddelke detailed how there are "a handful of things that can drive shrink in our business and theft is certainly a key driver.  We know we're not alone across retail in seeing a trend that I think has gotten increasingly worse over the last 12 to 18 months.  So we're taking the right actions in our stores to help curb that trend where we can, but that becomes an increasing headwind on our business and we know the business of others."  A Target spokesperson told Yahoo Finance via email after the call the shrinkage was mostly specifically attributed to "organized retail crime."

Lying Liars Gonna Lie.  A favorite saying of mine, statistics never lie but liars use statistics. [...] In 2021 blacks committed around 335,000 violent crimes that we know of, and that is almost 7,000 more violent crimes than Whites even though there are 204 million Whites in America as of 2020 and only 41 million blacks.  As I have demonstrated before, it is reasonable to assume that a majority of unknown offenders are also black. [...] While Whites committed 36,716 rapes and blacks "only" 16,008 reported rapes in 2018, looking at the victim side tells us something interesting.  Whites are 60% of known rapists (11% are unknown) but White women are 74% of rape victims, while blacks are 26% of known rapists, double their representation of the population as a whole, but black women are only 18% of rape victims.  To put it another way, 8000 more White women were raped 2018 than White men commited rape and black men commit 5000 more rapes than there are black women raped.  Add in the gap of 3000 unknown rapists and it is quite possible that of the 16,000 rapes committed by black men in 2018, nearly half of them were rapes of White women.  Maybe that is another of those old stereotypes based in facts?  Like most violent crime, interracial rape is almost exclusively black on White, in fact White men raping black women is so rare that it doesn't even really register statistically.

When Was the Last Time That the Democrats Told the Truth About Anything?  [Scroll down] According to Andrew Richwine, "black men are 6 percent of the population but have perpetrated 42 percent of cop killings over the past decade. ... When violent incidents occurred between blacks and whites in 2018, 90 percent of the time the attacker was black and the victim was white."  In sum, the Democrat BLM claim that police and whites generally are anti-black racists is an outright lie totally refuted by all relevant evidence.  False though it was, the Democrat BLM lie has led to the undermining of police financially and morally and of public respect and spawned a horrendous crime wave across the country, but particularly in Democrat-led cities.  Residents of New York and Los Angeles are fleeing to sane, Republican-governed states.  Democrats own this crime wave.

Elderly Man Is Beaten With A Wine Bottle And Robbed On Chicago Metro Train.  Chicago police and the CTA are investigating after a man was robbed and hit over the head with a wine bottle during a brazen attack that has since gone viral after footage was posted to social media.  In the video, posted by a Facebook user, multiple assailants are seen assailing a man on a CTA Red Line train, asking for his identification and then snatching an unopened bottle of wine from him.  Video then shows the suspects reaching into his pocket and stealing money, and as the man begins to get up, one of the suspects strikes him in the head with a wine bottle, leaving him dazed and bleeding profusely in his seat.  [Video clip]

The Current Crime Wave Is Unlike Any Ever Experienced In America.  What America's experiencing today is exponentially worse than the typical crime that America is used to — and the truth is, young Black men and, increasingly, young Black women are perpetuating most, although far from all, of it.  Violence is not only going to a new level in terms of frequency but also its locales. [...] We see large groups of young people blitzing stores, grabbing merchandise off shelves, and running out with smiles on their faces.  We see "shoplifters" methodically clear store shelves of merchandise and simply stroll out the door, unconcerned about getting stopped or arrested and often assaulting employees along the way.  Moreover, an element of violence seems unprecedented in its scale.  Almost daily, we see random innocent people on subways or stairs or in restaurants getting shoved, kicked, or punched.  We see fast food workers attacked as customers come over or around counters and spark mayhem.  We see bus drivers attacked, shop owners beaten, and cops spat upon.  Indeed we see countless instances where robbers beat or shoot victims even after taking whatever they were after.  We also read daily of innocents of all ages killed in the crossfire while sleeping in their beds, standing in a bar, or sitting in their cars.

The Editor says...
There is little evidence of random interracial violent crime committed by anyone other than blacks.  Where is the video footage of white guys jumping black pedestrians or subway passengers?  Where is the surveillance video of young white boys slugging old black men for no reason?  If any such footage existed, it would be front page news.

New Orleans overtakes St. Louis to become the Murder Capital of America: Homicide rate up 141% from 2019.  New Orleans overtook St. Louis as the US murder capital in the first half of this year, as the city struggles with its lowest police staffing level in modern history amid a crisis of officer morale.  In the first six months of 2022, New Orleans recorded 41 murders per 100,000 population, a higher homicide rate than any other US city, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of data from the Major Cities Chiefs Association.  By comparison, the first-half murder rate per 100,000 was 11.5 in Chicago, 4.8 in Los Angeles and 2.4 in New York City.

The Demographics of Crime.  Minnesota's Bureau of Criminal Apprehension released its report on the state's 2021 crime statistics late Friday afternoon. [...] The BCA's numbers indicate that in 2021, homicides were up 72% over 2019, the state's last "normal" year.  Aggravated assaults were up 63% over 2019, and robberies up 30%.  Minnesota's crime wave continues to worsen.

The demographics of crime in Minnesota, with updated 2021 data.  This afternoon [8/12/2022], the state of Minnesota published 2021 data on crime.  Sadly, it's more of the same.  Last month we reviewed the trends in violent crime in Minnesota and took a look at the demographics of both victims and perpetrators in 2020.  The 2021 data tell the same story:  both victims and perpetrators come from the same communities. [...] The racial characteristics of murder in Minnesota is very similar to 2020. Of known victims, 123 were African American, or 65 percent of the total.  Of known perpetrators (a single murder could have more than one), 209 (76 percent) were African American.  Compare these figures to the share of African Americans in Minnesota's population, which is less than 10 percent.

Why a small number of criminals perpetrate the worst crimes in America.  [Scroll down]  The horrific episode — captured on a Chicago police surveillance camera and "one of the most tragic videos I had ever seen," according to New York criminologist Rafael A. Mangual — quickly led to the arrests of two men:  Michael Washington, 39, and Eric Adams, 23.  Both had long records, but Washington's stood out:  nine felony convictions, including second-degree murder in 2004, and a previous attempted murder charge reduced to battery in a plea deal. [...] Using a wide range of stats, Mangual shows that most American violent crime is perpetrated by a small number of criminals — primarily young men with long rap sheets — and that gun violence affects an equally small minority of Americans, mainly in New York, Chicago and other large metro areas.

Woman Lets Her 7 Year Old Daughter Drive On The Highway Without A Seatbelt.  A video has gone viral on social media of a mother who stupidly let her 7-year-old daughter drive on the highway.  Even stupider than that, the child seems to not even have her seatbelt on.  Even triple stupid, the woman then uploaded a video of the illegal and irresponsible action onto social media.  [Video clip]

How You Get the Left to Talk Honestly About Black Crime.  Discussing black crime in America isn't easy.  For decades, the FBI has collected all kinds of race and crime data from state police, so we have the information.  But due to a ton of negative black disparities showing up in the data, the mainstream media pursues a policy of silence on the issue, turning it as a result into a taboo topic.  But as progressives say: "silence is violence."  Like any policy area, when you refuse full and frank discussion about crime, bad policies get implemented and good people get hurt.

The dystopian state of our nation.  [Scroll down]  The Democrat party long ago joined hands with the forces of the aforementioned evil.  Most of those homicide deaths are Black-on-Black murders in Black neighborhoods.  Do the Democrats care?  Not one bit!  Those Black victims of the criminal climate the left has engendered are of no concern to leftists.  They are essentially cannon fodder in their quest for power.  But let a Black man die in a confrontation with a White cop, and they will make a federal case out of it with the media's gleeful encouragement.

Brooklyn 'Woo gang' members swiped $4M in COVID-relief funds: feds.  Nearly a dozen men associated with the Brooklyn-based Woo gang were charged Thursday [2/17/2022] with allegedly stealing more than $4 million in COVID-19 relief cash — and boasting about the scam in a music video, the feds said.  The 11 suspects — nine of whom live in Brooklyn — used personal information, including driver's license numbers, from 800 people to submit unemployment claims worth about $20 million, according to a criminal complaint against them.  The gang members were able to fleece some $4.3 million from the unemployment program between March 2020 and October 2021 as part of the scam, the feds said.

Serial shoplifter walked out of Seattle Target with 70-inch TV — his 22nd theft from same store in three months.  Newly released surveillance video shows a prolific shoplifter arrested in downtown Seattle after he stole a 70-inch television from a Target store last month, which staff claim was his 22nd instance of theft in just three months.  Career criminal John Ray Lomack, 55, who is believed to be homeless and has a rap sheet dating back to the '80s, was caught on camera eyeing the TV in the store, loading it into a shopping cart and walking out of the store without attempting to pay.  He is said to have nabbed $6,000 worth of property from this one Target location since October; it's unknown what other items he has stolen.  At least three security guards are seen trying to stop Lomack from pushing the TV outside, at one point preventing him from going through a revolving door — but they refrain from getting physical with him and he proceeds to walk out a different door.

Wrong State — Shoplifter Thinks He's Just Going To Walk Out Of Store With Free Clothes, Cops Waiting For Him Have A Different Idea.  After watching hundreds of videos online depicting thugs just walking out of stores unimpeded, mostly in liberal cities, this loser thought he could help himself to the post-Christmas, 100% off sale as well.  Bad news for this fool, the police were waiting outside for him and another guy who might have been his partner.  Happened in Salem, Oregon.  [Video clip]

Asian Restaurant is Refusing Service to Blacks Due to Blacks Repeatedly Not Paying.  Due to black people repeatedly walking away without paying for their food, this Asian restaurant has decided to start discriminating against all black people by refusing them service.  He says it in his own words "keep stealing" when the woman asks why her sister and her are being refused service.  Sir, this is the 21st century, you can't discriminate against an entire race of people because of individuals within that race.  Just like you can't blame all cops for the actions of a few.  [Video clip]

One Of Santa's Homeless Elves Help Himself To A 100% Discount Sale On Booze At Target In Lost Angeles.  The dystopian nightmare continues in lovely Lost Angeles as another retailer, this time Target, is the target of legalized shoplifting.  [Video clip]

The Whitewashing of Black Crime.  Censoring criminal misdeeds in matters where a particular skin color is unsuitable to one's needs or political purposes is emblematic of today's legacy media.  MSNBC and CNN have chosen to shun awkward incidents of organized looting, an appellation promptly discarded in the belief that wordsmithing a crime might lessen a connotation to race.  Flash mobs of larcenous young adults, many concealed in ski masks, hoodies, and packing handguns, arrive en masse to empty boutique shops of their wares, pepper-spraying and assaulting employees, and at times engaging in gun battles with police while escaping in convoys weighted down with booty.  What began as a California phenomenon spurred on by the pro-thievery provisions of Proposition 47 has become hoodlum chic across the country.  The New York City Police compile data on crime and its characteristics as good as any major city department.  Their data shows that 63 percent of all homicides were committed by blacks against 65 percent of all murder victims in 2020.  In distant second at 26 percent were near identical rates of Hispanic-on-Hispanic victims and assailants.  Citywide shootings and murder statistics for 2021 are tacking in the same direction, only worse.  These results are transposable to many Democrat-run major cities, all with a calamitous impact upon black residents and inner-city neighborhoods.

There's an unspoken reason that Blacks are attacking Asian people.  We read regularly about Blacks attacking Asians, whether it's stories about beating them up, stabbing them, or shooting them.  Back in August, the FBI reported that hate crimes against Asians had risen by 70% over the past year.  The report does not mention that it's mostly Blacks who are committing these crimes.  At the most primitive level, the anti-Asian crimes increased because ill-educated people, when hearing that the Wuhan flu originated in communist China, decided to make their displeasure known by attacking people who had escaped from communist China.  This simplistic thinking is common in marginalized communities — and marginalized often means Black.

Black Crime: 'Slavery and Jim Crow Ain't Got Nothin' to Do Wit' 'Dis'.  [Scroll down]  Tips helped police track down my cousin's killer.  He was arrested, then released on lesser charges with a court date.  Not enough evidence to hold him, they say.  Possible, but I couldn't help but think about all the garbage theories driving the push to "address racism in the criminal justice system" these days.  Bail reform.  Reducing incarceration.  Jury nullification.  Defunding police.  None of it's working.  And given the fixed inclinations of basic human nature, it will never work.  Human nature was never factored into the left's Utopian theories.  These policies clearly and predictably erode the systems we've designed to punish, control, and discourage crime.

"I Can't Breathe".  Every year, more than 10 million arrests are made by police departments nationally.  In 2019, 14 unarmed blacks and 25 unarmed whites were killed by police.  A 2001 Justice Department report stated that "when a white officer kills a felon, that felon is usually a white... and when a black officer kills a felon that felon is usually a black."  Nothing has changed in the years since then, the report states.  Autopsy reports show that George Floyd could not breathe at the time of his containment by police because of the lethal dose of fentanyl that he had voluntarily ingested into his system.  A 2011 Bureau of Justice Statistics study showed that of all suspects killed by police from 2003 to 2009, 41.7 percent were white, and 31.7 percent were black.  In this period, blacks accounted for 38.5 percent of all arrests for violent crimes — that is, the type of crime most likely to trigger potentially deadly confrontation with police.  Horowitz further points out that the evidence that police do not shoot and kill African Americans in disproportionately high numbers has grown stronger.  In 2017, blacks were arrested for 37.5 percent of all violent felonies, but were just 24.7 percent of people killed by police.  Corresponding figures in 2018 were 37.4 percent and 26.4 percent.  In 2019, the numbers were 36.4 percent and 29.3 percent.

NYC homeless shelter director who stole $2 Million in city funds and splurged at Tiffany's avoids jail.  A New York woman has pleaded guilty to taking $2 million of money meant for a homeless shelter she ran in the Bronx and spending it on shopping sprees at luxury stores in the city instead.  Ethel Denise Perry, 66, was the executive director of Millennium Care, which was given a $10 million contract by the City of New York to run a 100-person shelter.  Yet between 2013 and 2016, Perry used Millennium Care 'as her own personal piggy bank,' according to the state's attorney general, Letitia James.  James said Perry illegally took more than $2 million from Millennium Care for luxury shopping sprees at retailers such as Tiffany & Co., Manolo Blahnik, Ferragamo and Bergdorf Goodman, and to pay for her cars, gym membership and other personal expenses.

Chicago's Magnificent Mile is dying from an increasingly familiar cause.  The "Magnificent Mile" in downtown Chicago has long been a popular tourist destination and a prime source of revenue for the city, featuring nearly all of the major chain outlets as well as exclusive boutiques.  Or at least it used to be, anyway.  By the time the BLM protests/riots were finished, the places that weren't burned down and/or looted were boarded up.  The problem is that the famed shopping district still hasn't made a comeback more than a year later.  As CBS Chicago reports this week, many of the biggest, high-profile stores like Disney and Macy's have left permanently and no new employers have attempted to move in and replace them.  The reason is the same that we've seen in other cities since the riots began.  Decriminalization of "smaller" crimes like theft, lax enforcement, and bail reform laws have led to an endless series of organized shoplifting and robbery sprees.

Isaac Rodriguez
This 'Man of Steal' leads NYC's record-shattering shoplifting surge with 46 arrests.  During just one illicit shopping spree, on July 7 at the Jackson Heights Walgreens, Rodriguez took "10 units of Ensure, 12 Walgreens wipes, 15 units of Sensodyne toothpaste and 8 units of Cetaphil lotion," court papers state.  "This guy comes here every day stealing, every single day.  He comes and he steals," fumed the store manager.  "We call 911 and make a report, and that's it.  Our company policy is if anyone comes, because of a safety issue, we cannot stop him.  We cannot do anything."  "They steal and they sell," the manager groused.  The manager said the Queens Klepto has been targeting his Jackson Heights store for "at least a year, at least every single day. ... Whenever he goes to jail he stops.  Sometimes he comes three, four times [a day] to get all of a [certain] merchandise."

Blue Truth Matters.  Blacks in New York City commit over 70% of all drive-by shootings, according to the victims of, and witnesses to, those shootings, who are overwhelmingly minority themselves.  Add Hispanic shootings to black shootings and you account for nearly 100% of all shootings in New York City.  These numbers mean that virtually every time an officer gets a "shots fired" call over his radio, he is being called to a minority neighborhood, on behalf of a minority victim, and being given the description of a minority suspect, if anyone is cooperating with the police for once.  The cops don't wish this reality into being.  It is forced upon them by the facts of crime.  Such disparities exist in every American city.  In Chicago, blacks commit about 80% of all shootings and murders, and whites less than 2%, though both blacks and whites are each a little less than a third of the population.  In St. Louis, blacks commit up to 100% of all homicides, though they are less than 50% of the population.  Officers cannot use their lawful powers of enforcement, in other words, without having a disparate impact on blacks, since blacks commit the lion's share of violent street crime.  These crime disparities also have large implications for police use of force.  Officers are far more likely to encounter armed, violent, and resisting suspects in minority neighborhoods.

Man Films A Vanload Of People Looting Thousands Of Dollars Worth Of Items From A Target In Portland.  This was the moment a concerned citizen filmed a group of shoplifters, giving zero F's while they unloaded shopping cart after shopping cart of stolen items from a Target in Jantzen Beach on Hayden Island in Portland.  The man actually talks his way through while he films several people load racks of clothing into a van while they seem to pay him no mind at all.  The man even films their license plate just before they drove off.  Portland law basically lets people off scot-free if they steal under 500 dollars worth of items so technically, this group can claim under 500 dollars each and get away with a tiny slap on the wrist at best.  [Video clip]

Disgusting Man Poops In Supermarket Freezer, Woman Gets It All Over Her Hands Reaching For Pizza Rolls.  An Oklahoma man allegedly defecated in a grocery store freezer Sunday night [9/12/2021], and a woman who was shopping accidentally put her hand in it while reaching for groceries.  "I pick up a bag of pizza rolls and there's literally [excrement]," Shirley Wright-Johnson said in a video of the incident.  "Human [excrement].  Excuse my language."  [Video clip]

Man brazenly fills garbage bag with stolen goods at San Fran Walgreens while security watches, takes video.  A man rode his bicycle into a San Francisco Walgreens and then began filling up a trash bag with stolen items while a private security guard stood by watching and videoed the crime.  The thief left the store without being stopped, although the guard did grab at the bag on the way out.  A reporter with KGO-TV named Lyanne Melendez posted the video to Twitter, stating:  "This just happened at the @Walgreens on Gough & Fell Streets in San Francisco. #NoConsequences @chesaboudin."  Chesa Boudin is the city's liberal district attorney who refuses to prosecute crimes such as these.  A woman who also witnessed the robbery and who was filming the incident asked the security guard if he should call 911.  He allegedly made no move to do so.  The thief brazenly rode his bike down the middle of the aisle past the security guard and out the front door.

Black-owned juice bar broken into just days after opening in south Minneapolis.  Minnesota's first Black-owned juice bar was broken into overnight, forcing it to close just days after its grand opening.  Catiesha Pierson, the owner of The Dripping Root, had to do what no small business owner wants to do on Friday [6/11/2021], sending customers away as she focused on cleaning up after an early morning break in.  "I'm not going to let something like that ruin my shine or happiness for the amazing thing that's been built and surrounded by community," Pierson told FOX 9.

A Group Of Women Walk Out Of Restaurant Without Paying Bill, Return After They Forgot Keys, Karma Is Sweet.  These 4 women thought they would be slick by walking out on this eatery without paying the bill.  After telling the waitress they were going to the bathroom after finishing their meals, they never came back, but there was a plot twist:  one of them forgot her car keys.  Once they realized their faux pas, they tried to play it off as if they were just returning from the lady's room but everyone knew.  [Video clip]

The Future of Floydism.  Gun murders are up 34.4 percent in the 365 days since George Floyd's death.  According to data scraped from Gun Violence Archive, in the Year One B.F. (Before Floyd) from May 25, 2019, to May 24, 2020, there were 13,024 murders committed with a firearm in the U.S.  In contrast, in the Year One A.F. (After Floyd) from May 25, 2020, to May 24, 2021, there were 17,499 gun murders, an increase of 4,475 corpses.  (In contrast, the NAACP reports that 3,446 blacks were lynched in all of U.S. history.)  That's a lot of blood that our new state religion, the worship of the holy martyr George Floyd and his racial brethren, has on its hands. [...] Technical note:  Murder statistics are never quite final because coma victims expire, presumed runaways are discovered in shallow graves, suicide notes are found, and the like.  But whatever the ultimate numbers for the first 365 days of the Racial Reckoning will turn out to be, they reflect a massive increase in mayhem, the majority of it perpetrated by blacks.

San Fran Legalized Shoplifting.  Now Seniors Have No Pharmacies.  Actions have consequences.  Pro-crime policies work.  And electing leftists who call themselves progressives and promise to protect criminals from being locked up in the name of criminal justice reform while regulating and taxing the businesses they prey on more than ever has inevitable consequences.  [Video clip]

A slow-motion genocide in Chicago.  In the first three months of this year, 762 people were shot in Chicago.  There were 144 homicides.  Eighty-three percent of the victims, or 120 people, were black.  Since 2009, there have been 6,732 murders in Chicago.  Day after day, month after month, good year after bad year, 1.6 people per day on average are murdered in Chicago.  The majority are young black men.  Society knows how to stop the killing.  New York became one of the safest cities in the world by getting serious about gun crime.  Using COMSTAT, a crime tracking system, New York deployed more officers to high-crime areas.  Officers were free to use "stop and frisk" tactics, whereby police would stop and frisk individuals engaged in suspicious behavior. [...] One would think Chicago would copy what worked in New York City.  It hasn't happened.

HuffPo leaves out conspicuous detail to blame Trump for hammer attack on Asian woman.  [Scroll down]  [I]t's well known — and documented — that the overwhelming number of hate crimes in this country against Asians are perpetrated by blacks.  Since ninety percent of black voters chose Biden in 2020, not many of them listened to Trump or followed his dictates...especially inner-city thugs who assault innocent victims.  That's Democrat territory.  Blacks who listened to Trump and voted Republican are, for the most part, law-abiding patriots who are tired of the Democrats' destructive policies.  Yes, hate crimes against Asians have increased dramatically... but so have murder rates, assaults, armed robberies, burglaries, arson, etc., etc., etc.  Who's really responsible?  How about the Democrat politicians who defunded law enforcement, let hundreds of violent criminals walk, and sat and watched while Marxist revolutionaries burned down their cities and looted countless businesses?  Meanwhile, they told the cops to stand down and refused to activate the National Guard.  But, as always, Democrats refuse to take responsibility for anything.

Prolific mail thief in West Seattle arrested seven times, released from jail each time.  There's a suspected mail thief operating in West Seattle.  The victims know his name.  So do the police, the post office and prosecutors.  He's been arrested seven times since Jan. 7 and each time, he was released from jail, sometimes within 48 hours after his arrest.  His name is Jason Turner and his case is another example of a suspected repeat offender falling through the cracks of the criminal justice system, leaving everyone who touches his case frustrated.

Turner: [...] ["]Turner has 3 arrests for mail theft since 2020.  Turner's most-recent arrest was Feb. 3.  He was released the following day and returned to the area, where additional mail was stolen.  Residents are fed up with his actions.  Turner has been witnessed following USPS and UPS drivers and stealing mail and packages that were just delivered.  He does this in broad daylight, often in the morning hours before noon, showing no concern for being witnessed.["]


Live-Streamer Signs off [...] Then Kills an NYPD Officer While Driving Home Drunk.  At some point, the hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness evident in this mindset will simply become too much to bear.  The Daily Mail has a lengthy article on an incident that happened in New York City in the early morning hours on Tuesday [4/27/2021].  On Monday evening, Jessica Beauvais, a 32-year-old African-American resident of Hempstead, New York, sat herself down in front of a microphone and live-streamed herself on Facebook for 1:51 minutes from what looks like a bar/restaurant somewhere in New York.  She blessed all her listeners with some pearls of wisdom concerning the outcome of the Derek Chauvin trial last week.  Here are a few examples of her enlightened view of the workings of the criminal justice system: [...]

DC pastor used PPP loan to buy Tesla, Baltimore property, US Attorney says.  A D.C. pastor used loans meant for COVID pandemic relief to buy a Tesla and a property in Baltimore, according to U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland.  Rudolph Brooks Jr., of Cheltenham, Maryland, known as the pastor at Kingdom Tabernacle of Restoration Ministries, faces a federal charge for wire fraud.  Federal authorities have also seized $2.2 million from his various bank accounts, along with a 2018 Tesla Model 3.  The federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security, also known as CARES, Act in March 2020.  The Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) was created so businesses and employers could use money for rent, paying employees, and utilities.

Black Crime:  Facing Down the Elephant in the Room.  Blacks are a third of the population in Chicago but commit 80 percent of all shootings, author Heather Mac Donald told Tucker Carlson on a recent show.  In Los Angeles, blacks commit 44 percent of all violent crime but make up 9 percent of the population.  In St. Louis, blacks are less than a third of the population but commit 90 percent of all homicides.  In New York City, blacks commit about three quarters of all shootings although they're 23 percent of the population.  On Monday alone, 16 people were shot and two killed in Chicago, a city led by blacks.  Two teenage black girls killed an Uber Eats driver in D.C. during a foiled carjacking.  A knife-wielding black man, 25, was shot dead after he rammed his car into a barricade at the Capitol, killing one policeman.  A deranged black man who had been released from prison after killing his mother was caught on camera kicking, stomping, and beating a random 65-year-old Asian woman, while others, including a security guard, watched.

Who's really committing this sudden spate of anti-Asian hate crimes?  Blacks commit a far higher proportion of hate crimes against Asians than do whites.  According to the FBI, in 2019, there were 205 hate crimes against Asians, of which 46% were committed by whites and 15% by blacks (for some reason, the Department of Justice, the FBI's parent organization, says 52.5% were committed by whites and 23.9% by blacks in 2019).  In either case, using either the FBI or the DoJ statistics, since whites are 73% of the U.S. population and blacks 12.7%, whites are greatly underrepresented among the perpetrators of anti-Asian hate crimes.

Black Lives Murdered.  As the evidence continues to mount that 2020's record growth in murders was mostly due to "BLM" meaning, in practice, Black Lives Murdered, it's worth reviewing one of the more subtle reasons why so many people can't think clearly about America's murder problem.  Besides the obvious partisan, moralistic, and antiwhite racist causes for why numerous people can't incorporate into their worldview the important fact that blacks, who make up 13.4% of the population, commit the majority of murders (blacks were 55.9 percent of known murder offenders in the FBI's 2019 statistics), one particular cause of brain fog involves the category of "mass shootings."  Mass shootings are followed by the media, so you don't have to wait around for the FBI to announce the official murder stats next September. [...] For example, Mass-Shootings.info reports that 73 percent of 2020's mass shooters who have been charged are black.  (Due to low clearance rates in black neighborhoods, the real percentage is likely even higher.)

Nicholas Richards, doing what he does best.
Have the police just given up on crime?  This prolific shoplifter was caught red-handed by security guard.  Nicholas Richards is a familiar face in the stores of London's West End.  He's a serial shoplifter.  One of the establishments he has been banned from because of his persistent offending is the flagship branch of Boots in Piccadilly.  But here he is, captured on CCTV of that very store before the latest lockdown, brazenly helping himself to £170 worth of Gucci products from the fragrance counter.  Richards, in a fashionable black T-shirt and jeans, was caught red-handed by security officers from private police force My Local Bobby (MLB).  They handcuffed him and waited for the real police to arrive, but they needn't have bothered.


School Girl Gets Busted Shoplifting A TON Of Candy, Gets Publicly Humiliated Instead Of Police.  This school girl who had at least 15 dollars worth of stolen candy and snacks in her bookbag is lucky this cashier didn't call the cops on her.  Instead, he made her empty her bag in front of everyone and then banned her from the store for life.  [Video clip]

Rapper who sang about bilking unemployment is arrested for bilking unemployment.  A rapper who posted a YouTube video bragging about bilking California's unemployment system was charged Friday with doing just that.  Prosecutors say Nuke Bizzle, whose real name is Fontrell Antonio Baines, was part of a scam that collected at least $1.2 million in bogus payments from California, using the coronavirus pandemic to rack up the cash.  In the video, titled EDD, for California's Employment Development Division, the rapper shows himself going to the mailbox with stacks of applications, and bragging that "you gotta sell cocaine, I just file a claim."

Portland NAACP president resigns following accusations of sexual abuse.  An NAACP president in Oregon has resigned after 11 people accused him of sexual and psychological abuse while attending his church decades ago, the civil rights group said.  Portland NAACP President E.D. Mondainé submitted his "immediate resignation" late Tuesday [10/20/2020], the organization said in a statement.  "The NAACP is firmly opposed to all forms of abuse, assault, harassment or discrimination," the statement said.  "Such behavior has no place in the Association, regardless of whether these instances occurred in previous or current administrations."  An investigation into the accusations is ongoing — and "additional and appropriate action" will be taken if necessary, NAACP officials said.

Revolution 2020.  [Scroll down]  Since blacks commit homicides at five times and other violent crimes at three times the rate of whites, confrontations between black criminals and police are quotidian.  Violent reactions to such confrontations are common.  Any number of personalities and organizations, mostly black, have made fortunes and careers exploiting them, e.g.  New York's Al Sharpton.  Increasingly since 2013 BLM has become the most prominent of these, founded as a project of a hardline Communist organization based in Cuba and funded lavishly and unaccountably by a high percentage of America's major corporations.  Its stated goals of protecting the black community against police brutality notwithstanding, it functions to mobilize black voters on the Democratic Party's behalf.  Along with Antifa, an organization of violent Marxists and anarchists, BLM organized the physical side of the ruling class's campaign of intimidation against the American people.  The patently counterfactual claim that months of burning, looting and personal attacks by mobs professionally armed, marshaled, and effectively authorized are "mostly peaceful protests" doubly serves the ruling class by warning the victims that they are alone, can expect no help, and that even resenting the mobs is culpable.

Gregg County [TX] commissioner, 3 others arrested in alleged vote harvesting scheme.  A Gregg County commissioner along with three others have been arrested on charges in connection with an organized vote harvesting scheme during the 2018 Democratic primary election.  According to Attoney General Ken Paxton's office, Gregg County commissioner Shannon Brown, Marlena Jackson, Charlie Burns, and DeWayne Ward were arrested.  A press release said to increase the pool of ballots needed to swing the race in Brown's favor, the group targeted young, able-bodied voters to cast ballots by mail by fraudulently claiming the voters were "disabled," in most cases without the voters' knowledge or consent.  Under Texas election law, mail ballots based on disability are specifically reserved for those who are physically ill and cannot vote in-person as a result.

Accounting for the "racial gap" in D.C. marijuana arrests.  The Washington Post reports that a "clear racial gap persists in District's pot arrests." [...] As for why the racial gap exists in the first place, the answer is so obvious that even the Post supplies it (if you read far enough).  Reasonably enough, the city deploys its police officers primarily to areas plagued by high rates of violent crime.  These areas are populated mostly by Blacks.  Thus, even if Whites are using marijuana as much as Blacks are, officers don't often encounter White users.  But why do officers arrest Black users?  After all, as the Post says, marijuana-related charges usually are either dropped or pleaded out with only a probationary sentence.  However, a marijuana arrest can be an entree for the police to obtain information about more serious crimes.  As one defense lawyer told the Post, officers can pat down people found to be using marijuana for illegal weapons and check for outstanding warrants.  They can also try to turn users into informants or state witnesses.

How the Underground Press Will Thwart the Media and Re-Elect Donald Trump.  [Scroll down]  In a just world, the Minneapolis police who arrested George Floyd will likely be cleared as well.  New York Times readers do not know this.  Those who follow the samizdat do.  The same holds true for the Louisville cops involved in the Breonna Taylor shooting and quite likely for the Atlanta cops involved in the shooting of Rayshard Brooks.  The samizdat understands the consequences of these celebrated police-perp encounters:  cops begin to pull back from actively policing black neighborhoods.  Sensing opportunity, criminals moved into the void.  Attorney and Manhattan Institute fellow Heather Mac Donald has dubbed this phenomenon the "Ferguson Effect."  According to FBI data, the murder rate in the United States rose nearly 11 percent the year after the Ferguson riots in late 2014, its greatest one-year jump in a half-century.  In 2016, the trend continued with an 8.5-percent increase over the year before, more than half of those murdered being black.

Just Knock It Off.  This week the mainstream media finally grudgingly admitted the possibility of what I've been hollering for three months:  that their declaration of a "racial reckoning" has unleashed destruction and mayhem across America.  While most of the press' attention is focused on a handful of whites shooting other whites over politics, the statistically much bigger phenomenon all summer has been the Black Lives Matter-inspired rise in black-on-black shootings.  For example, the number of shooting victims in New York City so far this year is up 95 percent over 2019.  While the press is now harping on supposed right-wing violence, there probably aren't a lot of violent Trumpists in the Bronx.  What about elsewhere?  National crime data trickles in slowly, but one useful source is the Wikipedia page on mass shootings (defined as incidents in which four or more people were struck by bullets, but not necessarily killed).  With one day left in August, the total number of mass shootings in the U.S. since June 1 is 257, up 72 percent from 149 in 2019's same period.

'Social Justice' Is Extortion.  The Democrat Party pretense that mostly there are only "peaceful protesters" is a blatant lie, particularly when elected Democrat officials encourage the looting and arson and attacks on police.  The claim that rioting is all about police reform and justice for African Americans no longer has any credibility.  The truth is that there is no light between Democrats and rioters, the antifa rioters serving as the militia of the Democrat Party.  The Democrat "defund the police" movement, which has hobbled the police in many Democrat-run cities, does not enhance "black lives," which are threatened by a high rate of black-on-black crime, particularly shootings and murders, but also theft, robbery, assault, and rape.

Crime Roaring Twenties.  Why do blacks get hassled by the police so much?  The Occam's Razor explanation is the one you are never supposed to mention in public: because on average African-Americans commit so disproportionately many crimes, especially murders.  I will therefore summarize some important crime statistics from federal government documents.  The most striking fact is that blacks, who have typically made up about one-eighth of the population, have comprised the majority of the country's homicide offenders over the past four decades. [...] Naturally, everybody secretly wants to know the size of the gap between blacks and non-Hispanic whites.  Frustratingly, crime statistics still don't handle Hispanics well, with about 30 percent of jurisdictions not breaking out Hispanics from whites in their reports.  Hence, in 2018, almost one-third of identified homicide offenders did not have an ethnicity (Hispanic or non-Hispanic) specified.  So, the simplest work-around is simply to compare blacks to all nonblacks.

FBI Nabs Decadent Nigerian Scammer 'Hushpuppi' for 100s of Millions in Cybercrime.  "Hushpuppi," a Nigerian scammer suspected of trying to launder hundreds of millions of dollars, was taken into FBI custody in Chicago on Thursday evening [7/3/2020].  Ramon Olorunwa Abbas, a.k.a.  "Ray Hushpuppi" and "Hush," a Nigerian national, had just been expelled from the United Arab Emirates for various suspected crimes after his arrest last week.  The U.S. Attorney's Office says that Abbas will face criminal charges "alleging he conspired to launder hundreds of millions of dollars from business email compromise (BEC) frauds and other scams, including schemes targeting a U.S. law firm, a foreign bank and an English Premier League soccer club."

Exposing the Lies of Black Lives Matter.  A major Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) report in 2001 examined incidents where police in the United States used deadly force to kill criminal suspects between 1976 and 1998.  During that 23-year span, 42% of all suspects killed by police were black — a figure that comported precisely with the percentage of violent crimes committed by African Americans during that same period.  This is enormously significant because we would expect that in police forces not plagued by systemic racism, officers would shoot suspects of various racial or ethnic backgrounds at rates closely resembling their respective involvement in the types of serious crimes most likely to elicit the use of force by police.  And indeed, that is exactly what the evidence shows.  The same BJS report found that in nearly two-thirds of all justifiable homicides by police during 1976-98, the officer's race and the suspect's race were the same.

Voting fraud charges filed against Paterson councilman and councilman-elect.  In the wake of rampant allegations of voter fraud in the Paterson City Council race, the New Jersey Attorney General filed voting fraud charges Thursday [6/25/2020] against a city councilman and a council-elect.  Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced voting fraud charges against 1st Ward Councilman Michael Jackson, 3rd Ward Council-Elect Alex Mendez and two other men, weeks after the May 12 local election in which the Passaic County Board of Elections decided not to count 800 city ballots found scattered across different municipalities.

What Happens When the Madness Ends?  If a revolution is based on the untruth that blacks are daily violently terrorized by whites, what happens when data reveal facts contrary to that narrative?  What happens when people come to understand that in those relatively rare interracial crimes, blacks are far more likely than whites to commit interracial violence?  Or when people discover that more than 7,000 blacks are murdered per year by other blacks?  When the hysteria fades, such data reasserts the truth that there is not currently a white racial war against blacks.

A Platform of Urban Decline.  Just this month [September 2019], the Bureau of Justice Statistics released its 2018 survey of criminal victimization.  According to the study, there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations (excluding homicide) between blacks and whites last year, including white-on-black and black-on-white attacks.  Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies, or 90 percent, and whites committed 56,394 of them, or less than 10 percent.  That ratio is becoming more skewed, despite the Democratic claim of Trump-inspired white violence.  In 2012-13, blacks committed 85 percent of all interracial victimizations between blacks and whites; whites committed 15 percent.

Danville Police set record straight on recent arrest at Walmart.  Danville Police are setting the record straight following an arrest at Walmart on Thursday afternoon, June 11.  They arrested 22-year-old Vania Anderson of Danville at the Walmart on Mt. Cross Road.  Then later on Thursday night, Danville Police released video of the arrested on their Facebook page.  They say they want you to see it because of another video circulating on social media.  Police say that video doesn't tell the whole story.  The video from police is from Walmart security footage and police body cam.  [Video clip]

Ohio Democrat tried to trade votes for cash, could get 50 years in prison, authorities say.  A Cincinnati city councilwoman could face up to 50 years in prison after being arrested Tuesday [2/25/2020] on federal corruption charges, authorities say, according to reports.  Shortly after being taken into custody, Tamaya Dennard appeared in court in handcuffs and leg irons to face charges of honest services fraud, bribery and attempted extortion, FOX 19 of Cincinnati reported.

Bloomberg Is Correct about Crime in New York City.  With the hullabaloo over Michael Bloomberg's claims about high minority crime rates in New York City, why not go to the data?  According to the city's police department, 93 percent of all suspects arrested for murder in 2019 were black or Hispanic, as were 86 percent of those arrested for rape, 92 percent for robbery, 85 percent for felonious assault, and 96 percent for shootings.  Are police systematically arresting non-whites under lower standards of evidence?  It seems unlikely.  For one thing, a majority of New York City police are themselves non-white.  Second, the racial victimization rates generally align with the arrest rates.

Bloomberg condemned for his 'racist' remarks ... despite the fact his stats are correct.  The Democratic field of candidates is thinning out.  Yesterday, Andrew Yang pulled the plug on his campaign, and so a short time later did Tom Steyer.  Now it's beginning to look like former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg's head is next for the chopping block.  On Monday night, a five-year-old audio recording surfaced in which Bloomie candidly discusses the controversial "stop-and-frisk" policy. [...] It sounds pretty incriminating ... until you check out the crime statistics.

Stop Apologizing for Saving Black Lives.  In the 2015 tape, [former Mayor Michael] Bloomberg makes the blindingly obvious point that if "95% of murders and murder victims are young male minorities" — as is true in New York City — then police should be questioning about 95% young male minorities.  To stop crime, he said, you "put a lot of cops where the crime is, which means in minority neighborhoods." [...] Does anyone with a functioning frontal lobe disagree with this?  By pursuing the wacky idea of having cops frisk kids in high-crime areas for minor offenses like turnstile jumping, Mayor Rudy Giuliani cut the murder rate from more than 2,000 per year to about 600.  No one thought it could possibly go any lower — and then Bloomberg got murders down to an unfathomable 300 or so per year.  Giuliani and Bloomberg did more for young minorities than all living Democrats combined.  In New York City alone, at least 20,000 more black men are alive today than would be under the genius crime-fighting ideas of prior administrations (and The New York Times).

Deputies evict squatting Oakland moms in pre-dawn raid.  In an early morning raid, sheriff's deputies evicted a group of mothers illegally occupying a vacant house in Oakland.  Multiple videos posted by news organizations online show the mothers being pulled out of the house and put in handcuffs by deputies just before 6 a.m.  Protesters stood outside chanting "shame on you" at the deputies.  Alameda County sheriff's deputies arrested two women and a man during the eviction, a sheriff's spokesman confirmed.  KQED News reported the three arrested were mothers Tolani King and Misty Cross and activist Jesse Turner, all of whom are being charged with obstructing a police officer in the course of their duties.  The home's doors and windows were subsequently boarded up by officers.  The women's children were removed from the home on Monday night, according to KCBS Radio.

Mississippi men arrested for gluing winning numbers to lottery ticket.  Two men in Mississippi wanted to claim a $100,000 lottery prizes so bad, they glued the winning numbers onto a losing ticket, authorities said.  Odis Latham, 47, and Russell Sparks, 48, both of Columbus, tried to claim the scratch-off winnings at the lottery headquarters in Flowood on Monday, Mississippi Lottery Corp. spokeswoman Meg Annison told the Clarion-Ledger.  The ticket was immediately determined to have been altered using glue to paste on the winnings numbers to match the prize.  The lottery agency called the Flowood Police Department about two adult males allegedly trying to claim the ticket.

Taco Bell suspect
Police search for man who broke into Taco Bell, made a meal and took a nap.  One burglar may have been too full to make a quick getaway after he broke in and ate some late night snacks at Taco Bell.  The Gwinnett County Police Department in Lawrenceville, Georgia shared photos and surveillance video of a suspect who broke into the fast food restaurant around 12:15 a.m. on Dec. 25, in hopes of tracking down the hungry, sleepy thief.

Europe's Nigerian Mafia.  One of the fastest growing criminal networks in Europe is now the Nigerian mafia, which is spreading its criminal activities across the continent.  It consists of rival groups such as Black Axe, Vikings and Maphite.  Most recently, authorities in Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Malta conducted an international operation directed at two of the major Nigerian mafia groups.  Police accused the gangs of human-trafficking, drug trafficking, robbery, extortion, sexual violence and prostitution. [...] What distinguishes the Nigerian crime networks is their severe brutality — Italian police have described them as using "urban guerilla warfare" to hold on to territory in Italy — and their use of voodoo rituals.

Maryland Lawmaker Accepted Over $33,000 in Bribes Prosecutors Say.  Cheryl Diane Glenn, a veteran Democrat legislator from the northeast's 45th district and chair of Baltimore's House delegation, abruptly resigned last week.  The public learned why — Federal authorities on Monday unsealed charges against Glenn for allegedly taking more that $33,000 in bribes in exchange for various legislative actions, including voting to increase the number of medical marijuana grower and processing licenses available to an out-of-state company, CNN reports.  Cheryl Diane Glenn, 68, represented Baltimore as a Maryland state delegate until her resignation on December 18.  Glenn had become a leading advocate for legalizing marijuana in Maryland and the state's medical cannabis commission is named after Glenn's late mother, Natalie M. LaPrade.  The criminal information charges her with honest services wire fraud and bribery charges, the US Attorney's Office said.

Nebraska bakery owner tackles teen who allegedly stole tip jar.  A bakery owner in Nebraska is being praised for tackling and holding down a 90-pound teenager who allegedly stole a tip jar containing $15 — but the boy's mother wants the woman criminally charged for going "way above the law," according to a report.  The 14-year-old boy and a friend were at Farine + Four bakery in Omaha on Thursday when owner Ellie Pegler sprang into action during the alleged theft, the Omaha World-Herald reports.  Pegler later posted photos of the incident on her now-deleted Instagram page, complete with images of her bloodied knuckles and a warning for other would-be thieves.

Bakery owner tackles teen over stolen tip jar.  When something is stolen from your business, it's an instinct to protect what's yours.  But how far can you go?  An Omaha bakery sparked the conversation when police reports say the owner tackled a teen who was involved with stealing their tip jar.

'King Kenny' and Corruption in South Philly.  The FBI has been examining Philadelphia musician Kenny Gamble aka Luqman Abdul Haqq and his Universal Properties' involvement in corruption and bribery scandals involving Philadelphia councilman Kenyatta Johnson allegedly selling city owned land at extremely low prices, according to a recent article in the Philadelphia Inquirer.  FBI's finding seemed to indicate that two Universal executives between 2014 and 2016 bribed Michael Bonds, a former president of the Milwaukee School Board, who plead guilty to federal charges of accepted nearly $6,000 in bribes.  Additionally, the FBI found that Universal's former CEO Rahim Islam and ex-CFO Dawan Chavous, (Johnson's wife), were seeking Johnson's support in a deal that would defer $1 million in rent payments that Universal owed the school district for two charter campuses it operates.  Gamble also sits on the board of Universal Family of Schools which oversees the seven charter schools.

Nothing gets past the TSA!
Woman dragged off Delta flight after boarding without ID, ticket.  A woman somehow managed to get on a Delta flight without identification or a boarding pass, causing a three-hour delay in Florida over the weekend, officials said.  The airline apologized in a statement Sunday after the unidentified woman got on an Atlanta-bound flight Saturday at Orlando International Airport, sat in another person's assigned seat and flatly refused to move, WFTV reported.  "She said very bluntly, 'I'm not moving,'" another traveler told the station, adding that a supervisor and a pilot tried unsuccessfully to get the woman out of the 15th-row seat.

Sources: Woman Who Sneaked Onto OIA Flight Fooled TSA Agents.  A woman who boarded a Delta Air Lines flight at Orlando International Airport over the weekend without a boarding pass or ID fooled a TSA agent by pretending to be a part of another family, multiple people with knowledge of the investigation tell Spectrum News 13.

Democratic clerk charged with altering nearly 200 midterm elections ballots.  Sherikia Hawkins was arraigned Monday [9/23/2019] in Southfield, Michigan, on six counts related to the 2018 election including forging public documents and misconduct in office and was released on $15,000 bond, according to National Review Online.  "The alleged misconduct was discovered after the Oakland County Clerk's Office noticed that 193 voter files had been changed to reflect that the voters failed to include a valid signature or return date, when all of the implicated voters had in fact included both items.  The county clerk's office later discovered the original voter files in the trash at the election-division office," National Review wrote.

Walmart ice-cream licker confesses; fact that she's a minor ties hands of cops.  The young Texas woman seen in a viral video licking a tub of ice cream in a grocery aisle was found by police but will reportedly not be facing charges as an adult.  Despite earlier reports that she could face up to 20 years in prison for the "malicious act of food tampering," East Texas police said the San Antonio juvenile who was identified as the "licker" in the video would not be charged as she is a minor.

Appalling 'food tampering' stunt may land one attention-seeking 'prankster' in the slammer for 20 years.  A Texas woman's disgusting ice cream-licking prank could land her in jail for 20 years.  A viral video of the "malicious act of food tampering" prompted an investigation, according to Blue Bell ice cream company, which identified a Walmart in Lufkin, Texas as the location of the stunt, KETK-TV reported.

The Single most amazing (and insulting) line from the Oberlin College story.  There is a lot being written about the Oberlin College verdict awarding Gibson Bakery over 11 million for defamation. [...] Every single bit of it is worth your time but if you really want to to read one paragraph that sums up what was going on at Oberlin College this bit from the 9th day of the trial is it. [...] The bakery was talking to the school trying to defuse the situation and the school demanded that the students going to their $70,000 a year college be given a free pass to steal from their bakery at least once before getting police involved. [...] And what's worse that's all based on race.

7 Statistics You Need To Know About Black-On-Black Crime.  [#1] Data shows that 93 percent of black homicide victims are killed by other blacks.  The left's rebuttal is that that 84 percent of white homicide victims are killed by other whites, but The Wall Street Journal's Jason Riley points out that the white crime rate is "much lower than the black rate."  [#2] According to Riley, "Blacks commit violent crimes at 7 to 10 times the rate that whites do."  Blacks committed 52 percent of homicides between 1980 and 2008, despite composing just 13 percent of the population.  Across the same timeframe, whites committed 45 percent of homicides while composing 77% of the population, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics.

Blacks and the Democrats.  What has been the payoff to the black community for religiously voting for Democratic leadership?  To start, although blacks make up 13% of the U.S. population, they account for nearly 50% of the homicides.  According to the National Council for Home Safety and Security, the top 10 most dangerous cities in the United States for 2018 had Democrats as mayors, and according to the 2019 American Community Survey, 9 out of the top 10 poorest cities also have Democrats as mayors.  Many of these cities have the largest population of African-Americans in the country.

The Awful Truth of Michael Jackson's Depravity.  Fair warning for those curious about exactly what Michael Jackson did to little boys:  The two-part, four-hour documentary Leaving Neverland goes into gruesome, nauseating, nightmarish detail about the King of Pop's depredations.  But it's also disturbing for another reason, one you might not have anticipated.  Debuting on HBO March 3 and 4 after a previous series of screenings at the Sundance Film Festival, this enraging film by Dan Reed inspired a lawsuit against the pay-cable channel from Jackson's estate, which desperately wants people not to see a story that may significantly diminish the value of his brand.  It's a wonder that there is any brand left to defend, given that four men have now made detailed, credible claims that Jackson sexually abused them as minors over extended periods of time.

South Carolina man reportedly fakes [his] own kidnapping for $130.  A South Carolina man was arrested after he allegedly faked his own kidnapping to try to swindle his mother out of $130.  Emmanuel Franklin, 19, plotted his alleged plan on Jan. 22, according to WLTX.  Franklin reportedly told his mother that if she didn't put the money in a mailbox of his choosing, that he would be murdered by kidnappers.

Who Benefits From Democratic Control?  What cities are the deadliest for blacks?  The Trace, an independent nonprofit news organization, answers that question.  Using 2017 data from the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting program, The Trace listed the 20 major U.S. cities with the highest homicide rates — factoring in both the number of people murdered in cities and their populations.  Chicago, with 589 murders in 2018 — one murder every 15 hours — is often called the nation's murder capital.  But that's dead wrong.  In 2017, St. Louis had the nation's highest murder rate, at 66.1 homicides per 100,000 residents.  Baltimore came in second, with 55.8 murders per 100,000 people.  Detroit was third, with 39.8 murders per 100,000 people.  Other cities with high murder rates included New Orleans; Kansas City, Missouri; Cleveland; Memphis, Tennessee; and Newark, New Jersey.  With 24.1 murders per 100,000 residents, Chicago ranked ninth in the nation.  It was followed by Cincinnati and Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C., was 17th.  Now here's the kicker.  Of the 20 most dangerous major cities, all but one had a Democratic mayor.  In many of these cities, the Democratic Party has ruled for a half-century or more.

Kids cause $800G damages at Houston car dealership; wreck Ford Mustang, Dodge Challenger.  Four juveniles turned a Houston area CarMax parking lot into their own demolition derby Sunday night causing $800,000 in damages.  According to the Harris County Precinct 4 Constable's office, the juveniles broke into the CarMax dealership after it closed late Sunday night [1/6/2019].  The dealership is located on the North Freeway.  They gained access to the dealerships keys, broke into various vehicles and crashed them into over 20 cars causing a multitude of damage.

Squatter who moved into a stranger's half a million dollar home is arrested and charged with criminal trespass.  A man was arrested after he moved into a $500,000 home that another family had just purchased in Georgia.  Joel Fedd, 33, claimed the home in Gwinett County was his because he is an 'indigenous Moor' and as such had rights to the land.  Last Saturday, Fedd recorded himself and his nephew walking around outside the house on Settles Brook Court.  Fedd claimed they were entitled to live there because they were 'Moorish American'.

Reminder: White Liberals Hate Living in Black Neighborhoods.  Chris Hayes the liberal talking head says he's afraid of black people.  By saying it, he joins the ranks of Ta-Nehisi Coates, who wrote a whole book about it; Jesse Jackson, who worried out loud that one of them was going to mug or murder him; Al Sharpton, who left blackville the second he had the chance; James Baldwin, who told us to love Americans and then exiled himself to France; Barack Obama, who lives in alabaster Kalorama and sent his kids to white schools; and Maxine Waters, who got so rich riling up her constituents that she was able to move away from them.  Black celebrities aside, one thing you never see a white liberal do is move into a black neighborhood.  Chris Hayes won't because he's already lived near one, and he says he hated it.

Noel-Hines

US postal worker admits stealing money from 6,000+ cards to feed 4 children.  A mother-of-four who worked for the US postal service has admitted stealing more than 6,000 gift and greeting cards containing cash and checks in Wisconsin.  She said she needed money to pay bills and take care of her children.  The residents of Wauwatosa in Milwaukee County, Wisconsin started complaining about not receiving their graduation, wedding, birthday and sympathy cards as early as last summer.  The US Postal Inspection Service soon found out that the affected ZIP codes were assigned to one mail carrier, Ebony Lavonne Smith, 20.  However, they failed to catch the thief for around six months.

Postal worker admits to stealing more than 6,000 greeting cards filled with cash and checks in Wauwatosa.  Under a plea deal, a U.S. postal worker admitted to stealing more than 6,000 greeting cards filled with cash and checks in Wauwatosa.  As part of the deal, Ebony Lavonne Smith, 20, of Milwaukee pleaded guilty to theft or receipt of stolen mail on Sept.12 and will be sentenced at a later date.  Last summer, Wauwatosa residents complained to the U.S. Postal Service that they were not receiving graduation, wedding, birthday and sympathy cards in the ZIP codes of 53213 and 53226.

Dead bodies, wild dogs, squatters in government-owned Detroit houses.  The Detroit Land Bank owns nearly 30,000 residential structures in the city, and with as many as 4,300 of them occupied — it's a magnitude unlike any other place.  Squatters are a tricky problem:  remove them and add to the city's homeless population and its massive inventory of abandoned buildings.  Let them stay, and the land bank is summoned often to investigate what some of its occupants may be up to:  dog fighting, prostitution, drug dealing, overdoses, gambling, gun possession or running a chop shop.  Detroit police also are called regularly to land bank properties to investigate dead bodies — at least 50 homicides over the last four years.

Cops raid a North Carolina daycare center and find more than 100lbs of marijuana, cocaine, heroin and guns.  A massive stash of marijuana, cocaine and heroin has been seized from a daycare in North Carolina, authorities say.  Fayetteville police raided Tori's Playhouse on Tuesday [7/17/2018] and found cookies and gummy bears laced with marijuana along with six guns, 100lbs of pot, more than a half kilo of cocaine and an ounce of heroin.  The couple that ran the daycare, Reshod J Everett and Victoria L Everett, have been arrested on drug charges along with a third person, 27-year-old Alvin Davis III.

Four Dallas police officers arrested in gambling investigation.  Several officers turned themselves in to authorities in a corruption scandal that has rocked the Dallas Police Department.  FOX 4 first reported Wednesday night [6/27/2018] about the arrest warrants issued against four officers charged with crimes ranging from gambling promotion to engaging in organized crime, bribery and fraud.  Three officers turned themselves in on Thursday.  The ordeal began with DPD Senior Corporal Edrick Smith from the South Central Patrol Division.  He was first arrested in December for taking bribes and was already placed on administrative leave.  Now, he is facing new charges along with three other officers.

No jail for county worker who stole $10K in food stamps.  A former social services clerk in Passaic County was sentenced to five years of probation on Friday for using food stamps that did not belong to her, authorities said.  Carol Austin, 62, of Paterson must also make restitution to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for stolen funds in the amount of $9,995.84, according to Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia M. Valdes.  Austin pleaded guilty in March to third-degree theft and fourth-degree unauthorized use of food stamp coupons between November 2015 and May 2107.

If you see something, say something (unless you see black).  There has been a spate of articles recently about white people calling the police against black people who were apparently doing nothing wrong, like sleeping in a common room in Yale, attempting to urinate in Starbucks, shopping at Nordstrom Rack, and playing on a golf course.  The idea behind these articles is that white people are racist. [...] A few points to make about this:  [#1] The liberal media rarely report the whole story about these events.  Specifically, they often exclude key facts, such as the suspicious behavior that made people call the police.  [#2] These stories are cherrypicked.  We see the ones reported where the black people have committed no crimes.  There are never, ever stories of the times black people are arrested for crimes after someone phones in a "suspicious person" report.  What percentage of suspicious persons reports end up being valid?  The [New York] Times doesn't want to know; it just wants more stories of stereotypes.  [#3] Liberals insist that citizens be disarmed because the police will protect them.  Now they are saying citizens shouldn't call the police.

Mom spots son in video of burglary, makes him turn himself in.  They say mom knows best.  That is especially true when she recognizes her son's face in connection with a burglary.  That's how Clearwater police said they ended up arresting 18-year-old Kevin King.  His mother recognized her son as the burglary suspect police were looking for in an image the agency shared on social media.

Security guards allegedly stole $100K from church.  Two security guards have been accused of stealing as much as $100,000 in cash collections from Holy Name Church in Chicago, according to reports.  Jarrell Patterson, 22, and Artemio Calderon, 25, were caught on video several times allegedly using a key to enter the church and unlocking a safe containing the dough, the Chicago Tribune reported.  The two men worked for Monterrey Security, which handles security for the church, for the past six years.

911 operator who hung up on emergency calls is sentenced to jail.  A former 911 operator who hung up the phone "thousands" of times on people attempting to call in emergencies in Harris County, Texas has been sentenced to jail time.  Crenshanda Williams, 44, was found guilty of interference with emergency telephone calls Wednesday after "systematically" hanging up the phone on residents of Harris County, KTRK reported.  She was sentenced to 10 days in jail and 18 months probation.

College dropout refuses to leave her dorm room.  She loves the college life — just not the classes.  Hunter College is waging a court battle to evict a stubborn student who refuses to leave her dorm room some two years after dropping out.  Delaware native Lisa S. Palmer — who has not paid rent since 2016 — refuses to leave Room E579 at the school's 425 E. 25th St. co-ed dormitory, according to an eviction lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.  The 32-year-old "racked up a staggering $94,000 in unpaid residence hall charges on account of her continued occupancy, all the while ignoring Hunter College's service of additional vacate notices," said the suit.

The Real Gender Gap:  Family Breakdown and Black Males.  Data from the state of Virginia shows a strong association between single parent households and violent crime. [...] According to the Heritage Foundation, black illegitimacy rose exponentially halfway through the 1960s.  This is precisely when the perverse incentives of Johnson's "War on Poverty" were being implemented.

Rapper with song 'Sell Drugsz' gets prison for selling drugs.  A Rhode Island rap artist whose songs include a tune titled "Sell Drugsz" was sentenced to three years in prison Wednesday [1/10/2018] — for selling drugs.  Thirty-year-old Michael Persaud, a.k.a.  Montana Millz, pleaded guilty in October to drug-trafficking charges.  According to prosecutors, Persaud sold and delivered nearly three-quarters of an ounce of fentanyl and two grams of heroin to an undercover East Providence police detective between October 2016 and February 2017.  Authorities added that on at least two occasions, Persaud's girlfriend drove him to the delivery site.

More whites, less crime.
Don't Take the Wrong Lessons from NYC's Murder Drop.  New York City's formerly high-crime neighborhoods have experienced a stunning degree of gentrification over the last 15 years, thanks to the proactive-policing-induced conquest of crime.  It is that gentrification which is now helping fuel the ongoing crime drop.  Urban hipsters are flocking to areas that once were the purview of drug dealers and pimps, trailing in their wake legitimate commerce and street life, which further attracts law-abiding activity and residents in a virtuous cycle of increasing public safety.  The degree of demographic change is startling.  In Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood, for example, the number of white residents rose 1,235 percent from 2000 to 2015, while the black population decreased by 17 percent, reports City Lab.  In Bushwick, Brooklyn, the number of whites rose 610 percent over that same decade and a half; the black population was down 22 percent.  Central Harlem's white population rose 846 percent; the black share dropped 10 percent.  In 2000, whites were about three-quarters of the black population in Brownsville-Ocean Hill; by 2015, there were twice as many whites as blacks.  In 2000, whites were one-third of the black population in Crown Heights North and Prospect Heights; now they exceed the black population by 20,000.

The Truth of Interracial Rape in the United States.  In the United States in 2005, 37,460 white females were sexually assaulted or raped by a black man, while between zero and ten black females were sexually assaulted or raped by a white man.  What this means is that every day in the United States, over one hundred white women are raped or sexually assaulted by a black man.

Blacks, Crime, and the Bended Knee.  Whites comprise about 75 percent of America's population and they have had just about enough of the offensive accusations, protests, and moral outrage directed at them. [...] It is not "whitey" who is committing 62 percent of robberies, 57 percent of murders, 45 percent of assaults in the 75 biggest counties throughout the United States.  Despite comprising only about 15 percent of the population in those counties.  91 percent of blacks are murdered by other blacks.  Blacks comprise 10 percent of the population, but commit 42 percent of the robberies and 34 percent of felonies.  In a report from the Department of Justice, over a 30-year period between 1980 and 2008, blacks committed half of all homicides in the United States despite comprising only 13 percent of the population.

Hard Data, Hollow Protests.  The FBI released its official crime tally for 2016 today, and the data flies in the face of the rhetoric that professional athletes rehearsed in revived Black Lives Matter protests over the weekend.  Nearly 900 additional blacks were killed in 2016 compared with 2015, bringing the black homicide-victim total to 7,881.  Those 7,881 "black bodies," in the parlance of Ta-Nehisi Coates, are 1,305 more than the number of white victims (which in this case includes most Hispanics) for the same period, though blacks are only 13 percent of the nation's population.  The increase in black homicide deaths last year comes on top of a previous 900-victim increase between 2014 and 2015.  Who is killing these black victims?  Not whites, and not the police, but other blacks.

Brazen Thief Steals Purse From Woman, 82, on Scooter at California Supermarket.  Authorities in Southern California are looking for a thief caught on camera snatching the purse of an 82-year-old woman as she was grabbing an item from a shelf at a grocery store last week.  Burbank Police said the robbery occurred Tuesday [9/12/2017] at a Ralphs supermarket when the elderly woman reached up to grab an item from a store shelf.  In surveillance video released of the incident, the suspect is seen snatching the victim's purse from the scooter and then leaving the store.

Police searching for woman suspected of stealing more than $2,000 worth of baby formula in Orange County.  Police are asking for help identifying a woman who is suspected of stealing more than $2,000 worth of baby formula from at least three Target stores across Orange County, authorities said.  The incident followed a similar theft at a Mission Viejo Target the day before, where the suspects allegedly took more than $1,000 worth of formula, authorities said.  The same day of the Irvine theft, a theft in Anaheim resulted in a loss of $800 worth of formula and the arrest of the male suspect, Sajaunte Maurice Burks, 23, of San Diego.

NBA star, 36, who just signed a $24m contract, is arrested with 2lbs of marijuana 'that he intended to sell in a Watts housing project'.  Veteran NBA star forward Zach Randolph was arrested on a marijuana charge in Los Angeles which then prompted a disturbance that caused several police cars to be vandalized.  Randolph, who just signed a two-year $24million contract with the Sacramento Kings in July, was taken into custody late Wednesday on suspicion of possessing marijuana with intent to sell, according to Los Angeles Police Department Officer Liliana Preciado.  TMZ reported that Randolph had enough marijuana to be charged with a felony with over two pounds in his possession in a 'large backpack'.

This federal training program for low income youth is plagued by stunning crime and violence.  A federal program designed to provide better opportunities for at-risk youth has been plagued by stunning amounts of crime and violence, according to government reports.  The Job Corps program, overseen by the United States Department of Labor, racked up almost 50,000 safety and security incidents in a nearly 10-year span; including homicides, fights, drug-related incidents and more.

Teens filmed, laughed while man slowly drowned, authorities say.  Authorities in Florida say that a group of teenagers recorded the drowning of a disabled man last week — and did nothing to help as they made fun of his struggles.  Jamel Dunn, 32, of Cocoa, drowned in a retention pond July 9.  His body was recovered July 14, two days after his fiancee reported him missing.  Late last week, a friend of Dunn's family came across the video on social media and forwarded it to authorities in Brevard County.

Charges filed against Florida teens who recorded & taunted drowning disabled man.  A group of teenagers who filmed and taunted a drowning man in a lake are now facing criminal charges for not reporting his death.  Authorities are also pushing for legislation that would allow them to prosecute similar cases in the future.  On Friday [7/21/2017], the Cocoa Police Department (CPD), in conjunction with the Florida State Attorney's Office, announced they are pursuing criminal charges against the five teens under a little known Florida Statute that in short requires a person to report a death.

Drug dealer arrested after calling police to report stolen cocaine.  David Blackmon probably won't go down in history as a criminal mastermind, at least judging by the ridiculous reason for his arrest.  The 32-year-old "self-proclaimed drug dealer" stunned police in Florida when he called 911 to report his cocaine had been stolen, along with some cash.

Rapper DMX Arrested For Tax Fraud Charges After Concealing Millions From IRS.  Hip-hop artist DMX was arrested on federal tax fraud charges on Thursday [7/13/2017].  The rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, is accused of concealing millions of dollars of income from the Internal Revenue Service over the course of his career and owes $1.7 million in taxes, Fox News reports.  Prosecutors claim that Simmons earned millions of dollars from his songs, but avoided paying taxes on that income by setting up bank accounts in other people's names and paying the majority of his own personal expenses in cash.

Texas woman freed from life sentence by President Obama is back in prison.  A Texas woman who was freed from a life sentence last year after President Obama granted her clemency is behind bars again.  According to the Houston Chronicle, Carol Denise Richardson, 49, was arrested for theft in Pasadena, a Houston suburb, and violated other conditions imposed when she was released from prison.  "This defendant was literally given a second chance to become a productive member of society and has wasted it," Assistant U.S. Attorney Ted Imperato said in a statement released by his office.

The Democrats' Second Secession & America's New Civil War.  [Scroll down]  Similarly, the animus behind Democratic assaults on Republicans and their support for law and order as "racist" is the direct consequence of viewing all social disparities through the distorted lens of oppression politics.  Thus, the "over-representation" of African-Americans in the prison system is not because of systemic racism.  Police forces have been integrated for decades, along with the entire criminal justice system.  African-Americans are "overrepresented" in the prison population because they are "over-represented" in the commission of actual crimes.  Democrats' embrace of the Black Lives Matter movement and its efforts to cast career criminals as civil rights victims and law enforcement officials as villains is an inevitable consequence of ignoring the specific circumstances of the incidents under review, and forcing them into the melodramatic framework of "racism" and "oppression."

Crooks stole $600G from two seniors to fund lavish lifestyle, buy pricey shoes.  A pair of swindlers scammed two senior citizens out of nearly $600,000 so they could bankroll their lavish lifestyles and addiction to fancy shoes, authorities said.  Crocodile leather sneakers, blue suede kicks and Christian Louboutin shoes were just some of the footwear allegedly purchased in the crime, according to court papers.  Tavoy Malcolm even used her Instagram account to model a pair of mint green Pigalle pumps by Louboutin that were bought with a dying woman's credit card, officials said.  Malcolm also cruised around in a Mercedes-Benz sedan, according to prosecutors.

Democrat Senator Charged for Accepting Payments in Exchange for Official Actions.  Democratic Maryland State Senator Nathaniel Thomas Oaks, age 70, of Baltimore, Maryland, was charged with honest services wire fraud for allegedly accepting illegal payments in exchange for using his official position or influence to benefit an individual on business-related matters.

Crime Is the New Black Entitlement.  In Philadelphia, the NAACP is demanding the district attorney prosecute an Asian business owner after chasing and shooting a black robber with a knife — and the businessman's money.  The NAACP joined hundreds of parents and groups around the country who wonder why people with guns have to defend themselves against black people with bad intentions?  Like the sister who said her brother should not have been shot during a home invasion robbery because "where else is he going to get his money?"  Or the parents who criticized the Pizza Hut employee for shooting their son while he was trying to rob them.  After all, it wasn't their money and didn't insurance cover it?  So why did their son have to die just for committing an armed robbery?

Robbers in Everett home invasion caught on webcam.  The Snohomish County Sheriff's Office is hoping someone will recognize the two men who broke into an occupied south Everett home Wednesday morning [3/29/2017].  Webcam video released by deputies shows the men ransacking a room and then kicking open a bathroom door.  Screams can be heard as the men ripped jewelry off a woman in the home, stole other items, then they took off.  The suspects remain unidentified and at-large.

Man busted in Kearny was selling kilos of fentanyl on 'darknet,' feds say.  Federal authorities arrested a 28-year-old man in Kearny Monday morning [3/20/2017] after a months-long investigation determined he was selling highly addictive drugs online, officials said.  Chukwuemeka "Emeka" Okparaeke is charged with one count of conspiracy to distribute large quantities of fentanyl analogues, acting New York U.S. Attorney Joon Kim announced in a statement.

Feds: Man distributed drugs through Middletown Post Office.  Fentanyl, a synthetic opiate that's significantly stronger than morphine or heroin, is often added by drug dealers to heroin to boost the street drug's potency, and has led to a surge in overdoses.  In November, the complaint says, workers at the Middletown Post Office notified the U.S. Postal Inspection Service of a customer, wearing latex-dipped gloves, mailing "a large volume of envelopes" at the outdoor collection bins.  Other local post offices had noticed similar behavior.  He also bought bulk quantities of Priority Mail stamps.  Postal workers took note of Okparaeke's name on his driver's license and the description and plate number of his white Honda Accord.

22 bottles of booze stolen in a just a few minutes?  The purses helped.  Two short women used big purses to pull off a huge heist:  22 bottles of liquor, from a Weston Walgreens.  To break that down by brand, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office:  one bottle of Ciroc Peach, one bottle of Ciroc Pineapple, two bottles of Ciroc Mango, three bottles of Grey Goose, four bottles of Patron, five bottles of Ciroc Apple and six bottles of Hennessy.  This liquor larceny went down Feb. 8 in just a few minutes.

A Nation of Immigrants — Only If They Assimilate.  Anyone who visits Japan is struck by the ethnic homogeneity of the nation.  If you meet a Caucasian, a black or a Hispanic in Japan, you can be all but certain that the person is visiting or studying there, not a citizen.  Likewise in the United States, there is direct correlation between ethnic homogeneity and low levels of violence.  According to 2016-2017 data, the four states with the lowest percentages of violence are:
  Vermont — where 95 percent of the population is one race (white).
  Maine — where 95 percent of the population is one race (white).
  Wyoming — where roughly 93 percent of the population is one race (white).
  New Hampshire — where roughly 94 percent of the population is one race (white).

Ex-state worker sent to prison after stealing $82k in government aid.  A former state clerk will spend three years in prison for falsifying employment records to collect government assistance meant for poor people.  Tonia Ramaza-Williams, 40, collected more than $82,000 in benefits, Attorney General Christopher S.

Why Did the Bureau of Justice Stop Publishing the Data on Interracial Crime?  Heather Mac Donald is one of the few journalists who gathers good, clear facts in many crime cases.  She has an excellent article at City Journal on the stats for black-on-white crime and their relationship to the Chicago torture video: [...] My questions are:  Why did the Bureau of Justice stop publishing the data on interracial crime?  And, how much of our crime stats are twisted or hidden from the public?

The Black Community and Crime.  The FBI reported that the total number of homicides in 2015 was 15,696.  Blacks were about 52 percent of homicide victims.  That means about 8,100 black lives were ended violently, and over 90 percent of the time, the perpetrator was another black.  Listening to the news media and the Black Lives Matter movement, one would think that black deaths at the hands of police are the major problem.  It turns out that in 2015, police across the nation shot and killed 986 people.  Of that number, 495 were white (50 percent), 258 were black (26 percent) and 172 Hispanic (17 percent).  A study of 2,699 fatal police killings between 2013 and 2015, conducted by John R. Lott Jr. and Carlisle E. Moody of the Crime Prevention Research Center, demonstrates that the odds of a black suspect's being killed by a black police officer were consistently greater than a black suspect's getting killed by a white officer.  Politicians, race hustlers and the news media keep such studies under wraps because these studies don't help their narrative about racist cops.

60 law enforcement officers fatally shot this year, 20 in ambushes, report says.  A total of 60 law enforcement officers have died in firearms-related incidents in 2016, marking a 67 percent increase since 2015, the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund reported.  Citing a preliminary report from January 1 through November 23, the organization said that Texas has seen the most fatalities this year with 18.  So far, 130 officers have died nationwide.  The worst single attack was in July, when a black military veteran killed five white officers at a protest in Dallas — the deadliest day for American law enforcement since Sept. 11, 2001.  Ten days later, a former Marine killed three Baton Rouge, Louisiana, police officers.

Blacks and Politicians.  Using 2012 data from the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program, Law Street Media offers some sobering statistics in an article titled "Crime in America:  Top 10 Most Dangerous Cities Over 200,000".  The nation's most dangerous big cities are Detroit, Oakland, St. Louis, Memphis, Stockton, Birmingham, Baltimore, Cleveland, Atlanta and Milwaukee.  The most common characteristic of these cities is that they have predominantly black populations.  Another common characteristic is that for decades, all of them have been run by Democratic and presumably liberal administrations.  Some cities — such as Detroit, Buffalo, Newark and Philadelphia — haven't elected a Republican mayor for more than a half-century.

HPD: 911 operator says "ain't nobody got time for this" and hangs up on callers.  A 911 operator is accused of intentionally hanging up on callers during emergencies simply because she was not in the mood to help, according to Houston police.  Crenshanda Williams has been charged with interference with an emergency telephone call.  Williams had been employed as a telecommunicator with the Houston Emergency Center since July 2014, and supervisors began to notice that her logs revealed an abnormally high amount of "short calls," with a duration of less than 20 seconds.  Supervisors investigated the recorded call logs, and found that thousands of calls had been disconnected by Williams between Oct. 2015 and March 2016.

Houston 911 Operator that Hung Up On Callers She 'Did Not Want To Talk To' [is] Now Facing Criminal Charges.  According to reports, 43 year old Houston 911 operator Crenshanda Williams is now facing criminal charges doing exactly that.  The investigation into Williams' sickening behavior began after managers of the Houston Emergency Center noticed that the operator had been involved in thousands of "short calls" between October of 2015 to March of 2016.  As law enforcement began to investigate the oddly short emergency calls in question (which were apparently under 20 seconds in length) it was discovered that Williams had simply been hanging up the phone because "she did not want to talk to anyone."

Blacks' distrust of police yields fewer 911 calls, more violent crime, study finds.  A new study analyzing nearly 900,000 911 calls in Milwaukee found that emergency calls from majority-black neighborhoods dropped precipitously after the highly publicized beating of a black man by police officers.  In the months after the number of emergency calls fell, Milwaukee saw an uptick in homicides — highlighting a potential link between incidents of police violence and an increases in violent crime.  The findings come as the latest FBI crime data released last week show a 4 percent uptick in violent crime and an 11 percent increase in homicides in 2015.

The FBI Report that destroys Hillary on crime, police, and race relations.  Yesterday [9/25/2016], the FBI released new data compiled from over 15,000 law enforcement agencies throughout the country (covering a population of 305 million) showing that the murder rate increased by 11.8 percent from 2014 to 2015.  In mid-to-large sized cities with a population of 500,000 [to] 999,000, the murder rate spiked a whopping 20.2 percent in just one year. [...] So what changed in 2015?  There is no way to escape the 800-pound gorilla in the room:  the war on cops and the effort to dismantle the police tactics that helped decrease violent crime and murder in the first place.  It is no coincidence that the increase in murders was most potent in cities such as St. Louis, Baltimore, Cleveland, and Milwaukee.

The Left Insists On Everything Being A Consideration Of Race.  The lack of common sense among liberals is astounding.  On Fox's afternoon program "The Five" one hears the program's liberal member, Juan Williams, boringly often complaining that young black men are killed by police at a greater rate than their racial representation in the nation would predict, ignoring the fact that young black men commit crimes out of all proportion to the number of blacks in the larger population.  Eric Bolling, one of the conservative members of the program, has repeatedly reminded Williams that even though blacks make up a small percentage of the American population, they are sought out by the police in proportion to their commission of crimes, not in proportion to their racial percentage of the population, and the number of crimes they commit is far greater than their shear percentage of the overall population.

Racial Issues.  [Scroll down]  The relations between the police and the black community are another issue that has gotten a lot of attention, and produced counterproductive results.  After all the rhetoric and all the efforts towards more tightly restraining the police, the net result has been that murder rates have soared in cities where that policy has been followed — and most of the people killed have been black.  None of the most popular political panaceas for helping black communities has a track record of making things better, and some have made things much worse.

The lies told by the Black Lives Matter movement.  The facts are these:  Last year, the police shot 990 people, the vast majority armed or violently resisting arrest, according to the Washington Post's database of fatal police shootings.  Whites made up 49.9 percent of those victims, blacks 26 percent.  That proportion of black victims is lower than what the black violent crime rate would predict.  Blacks constituted 62 percent of all robbery defendants in America's 75 largest counties in 2009, 57 percent of all murder defendants and 45 percent of all assault defendants, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, even though blacks comprise only 15 percent of the population in those counties.  In New York City, where blacks make up 23 percent of the city's population, blacks commit three-quarters of all shootings and 70 percent of all robberies, according to victims and witnesses in their reports to the NYPD.  Whites, by contrast, commit less than 2 percent of all shootings and 4 percent of all robberies, though they are nearly 34 percent of the city's population.

North Miami man convicted of cashing $11 million in tax-refund checks for dead people.  His North Miami business cashed more than 2,000 tax refund checks issued in the names of people who were dead or disabled.  The refunds added up to more than $11 million, courtesy of the Internal Revenue Service.  Now, Junior Jean Baptiste faces up to 20 years in prison at his sentencing in October after being convicted Tuesday by a Miami federal jury of money laundering, theft of government funds, stealing identities and possessing false driver's licenses.  His crime, though commonplace in Miami during the past decade, stands out for the sheer volume of stolen identities and fraudulent checks.

Young Doctor Malachi
Accused teen 'doctor' arrested on grand theft, fraud charges.  A Florida teenager accused of pretending to be a doctor and stealing money from an 86-year-old patient is facing new charges of grand theft and fraud.


Her job was to help victims of identity theft.  Instead, she used them to steal from the IRS.  For Nakeisha Hall, the IRS might as well have been the family business.  The daughter of a longtime employee of the federal tax collection agency, Hall started working for the IRS in 2000.  A large chunk of her career was spent in Taxpayer Advocate Service offices in four states, where she assisted people who had been victims of identity theft.  But as Hall was helping taxpayers, she was also using them to steal from the government, federal authorities said.  Now, she is going to federal prison:  The 40-year-old former federal worker was sentenced Wednesday [8/10/2016] to more than nine years after pleading guilty in an identity theft and tax fraud scheme that affected hundreds of taxpayers and netted hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraudulent tax refunds, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Northern District of Alabama, in Birmingham.  In all, Hall attempted to steal more than $1 million, the government said.  She successfully claimed more than $400,000.

Teen caught fondling commuters tells cops he'd never seen white women.  A Jamaican student who was caught in the act fondling a woman in a downtown Brooklyn subway station Monday morning [7/25/2016] — and allegedly did the same to four other women last week — told cops he committed the act because he'd never seen white women before and "they're absolutely beautiful," police sources said.  Lt. John DiMeola and Officer Lauren Garcia spotted Damario Johnson, 19, a Jamaican national who is in New York on a student visa, pacing around the Hoyt Street 2 and 3 station before running up to a woman and sticking his hands up her skirt, according to Capt. Zahid Williams, the commanding officer of Transit District 30.  They immediately arrested him without incident.

We Have a 'War on Cops' because of the War on the Family.  [Scroll down]  Millions of black youths — because of the frequent absence of fathers — are growing up poorly disciplined, poorly educated, and poorly churched.  Thus, gangs and crime have become far too common in the black communities of America.  Sadly, these broken and vulnerable black families typically live in the most dangerous parts of our nation.  From the beginning of the Iraq war in 2003, until the U.S. troop withdrawal in 2011, there were 4,485 U.S. casualties.  The city of Chicago alone had 4,265 murders during the same time period.  Perhaps the most shocking statistic of all when it comes to black Americans and violence is that black men in the U.S. are half as likely to die if they are in prison than if they are not.

Fireworks Explodes In Woman's Vagina During Walmart Shoplifting Attempt.  A Philadelphia woman has been hospitalized and now in police custody after she attempted to steal fireworks from a Walmart in Philadelphia. [...] "Several of us were watching the woman on the security cam," said James Worthy, a Walmart employee.  "We thought she looked a little suspicious and suspected something was shady when she went into the restroom with a box of TNT Fireworks.  I never would have imagined that she was going to do what she did.  I bet she didn't think that her shoplifting attempt would end in such a painful and embarrassing way.  I've caught a lot of customers trying to steal in weird ways but not this way and not with fireworks.  It smelled like a fish fry."

MN Cops: Newport Cigarette Tax Stamps Tie Gangbanger Philando Castile To Convenience Store Robbery.  Minnesota police have told GotNews.com that the authorities linked Lavish Reynolds's cigarettes to the scene of an armed robbery where the cigarettes were stolen.  GotNews.com's police sources have confirmed that investigators have linked the cigarette tax stamps from a July 2nd robbery to the vehicle driven by Philando Castile and Lavish Reynolds.  Reynolds, who has since gone on a media tour, may have even been an accomplice.

Woman Who Famously Live-Streamed Her Boyfriend's Police Shooting is Arrested for Hammer Attack.  Diamond Reynolds, the woman who famously live-streamed the controversial fatal police shooting of Philando Castile, has been arrested in connection with a vicious attack that left another woman with serious injuries.  Reynolds, Dyamond Richardson, and Chnika Blair were apprehended Thursday [3/23/2107] in St. Paul, Minnesota, after allegedly attacking a woman with a hammer Tuesday night [2/28/2017], and leaving the scene in a silver truck.

Open Season on Cops.  [Scroll down]  Mister Obama had nothing to say about the incidence of felony crime among his black brothers in high risk, self-segregated schools and ghettoes, the "hood" if you will.  He failed to mention the abject sexism, violence, anti-Semitism, and racism in rap and hip-hop quarters. [...] The president also failed to mention that cops have confrontations in black neighborhoods because that's where the crime is.  If you are an elderly white in the wrong neighborhood, you might be the prey in a "polar bear hunt," aka the knockout game.  Mister Obama also forgot to note that many urban traffic stops are made by black cops.  The president failed to tell us how many traffic stops bag creeps with long rap sheets, if not active felony warrants.  A punk or thug with a criminal past is unlikely to be a model driver.  Good cops know these things.

Man admits taking $250K from Head Start; bought Maserati, mink coat.  The former executive director of a former Head Start program in Jersey City Tuesday admitted that he diverted more than $250,000 from programs for underprivileged children and used the money for personal expenses, including a Maserati and a mink coat, prosecutors said.  Robert E. Mays, 38, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Susan D. Wigenton in federal court to one count of wire fraud.  According to court papers charging him, Mays in 2013 forged records and duped employees at the Jersey City Child Development Centers into believing that its board of directors had raised his salary 61 percent to $155,000 after acting as executive director for only two months.

Police Seek Man Caught on Video Spraying Anti-Semitic Graffiti in Manhattan During Passover.  The NYPD is seeking the public's assistance in locating and identifying a individual who spray painted anti-Semitic graffiti on a residential building in the Tribeca section of Manhattan on the first day of Passover, police said Wednesday [5/25/2016].

Wild 100s
Chiraq hate crime:  "Man says "I hate 'expletive' white people" while stabbing and robbing victim.  Coincidentally I was just a few blocks from the racist creep's home earlier that day.  It's part of the area of Chicago known as the Wild 100s.  It's an apt moniker.  Near the site of where the picture on top was taken an obese thug in an Indianapolis Colts shirt chased after me while screaming "Hey buddy!  Hey buddy!"  He was not my buddy.  Urban exploration is dangerous — which is why I always have a planned escape route in mind while I snap photographs.


Civil Rights Commissioner:  Cutting Sentences Increases Black-On-Black Crime.  A member of the U.S Commission on Civil Rights sent a letter to Senators Thursday [5/5/2016] warning them of an increase in black-on-black crime due to sentencing reform.  "I live in a predominantly black area of inner-city Cleveland.  For my neighbors and me, these concerns are not remote.  When these men are released from prison earlier than they otherwise would have been, they are coming back to my neighborhood and neighborhoods like mine," Peter Kirsanow wrote in the letter to members of the Senate Judiciary Committee.  The committee has recently approved a criminal justice reform bill that lowers mandatory minimums and will allow convicts have to their sentences retroactively reduced.  The bill has 37 bipartisan cosponsors.

Judge Orders Coke Bust Flight Attendant Back to California.  The flight attendant who allegedly ditched $3 million worth of cocaine at the Los Angeles airport and went on the run will be flying back to California in the custody of U.S. Marshals.  A federal judge in New York, where former beauty queen Marsha Gay Reynolds had surrendered, had approved a $500,000 bail package for her on Thursday [3/24/2016], but prosecutors immediately appealed.

Police launch investigation after disturbing Facebook photo shows two toddlers with duct taped hands and mouths.  A disturbing photo posted to Facebook on Friday [3/18/2016] has caused police and other law enforcement agencies in Memphis to launch an investigation.  The photo shows two young children with duct tape tied around their hands and on their mouths.  The person who posted the picture, Facebook user Jaton Justsilly Jaibabi, appears to be the children's mother, but that has not been confirmed as she has since deactivated her account.  She caption[ed] the shocking photo, 'Kids For Sale, 45% Off because they bad'.

Relatives Of Teen Shot While Robbing Home: 'How He Gonna Get His Money?'.  Relatives of a teenager shot and killed while robbing a home in Miami are upset with the homeowner for defending herself.  Trevon Johnson, 17, spent the final moments of his life last Thursday [3/10/2016] trying to rob a woman's house before she killed him during a confrontation, according to CBS Miami.  CBS Miami reports that the police seem to be siding with the homeowner during the investigation, but Johnson's family attempted to justify his actions.

The Editor says...
Has anybody heard from Trevon's father about this matter?

The Shocking Quote That Exposes The State Of 'The Hood'.  A 17-year-old Miami teen named Trevon Johnson, a student at D. A. Dorsey Technical College, was shot and killed by a female homeowner who encountered him after he had broken into her house.  But Johnson's relatives were very upset, saying he didn't deserve it.  As his cousin Nautika Harris commented, "I don't care if she have her gun license or any of that.  That is way beyond the law — way beyond."  She also said — and this is the quote that is so shocking — "You have to look at it from every child's point of view that was raised in the hood.  You have to understand... how he going to get his money to have clothes to go to school?  You have to look at it from his point-of-view."  What a tragic indictment on the state of America in 2016.

Family Laments Shooting Death of Teen Burglar By Homeowner.  [P]rotecting the lives of innocent victims must be held as the higher priority, while the lives of criminals, while not worthless, are devalued by their decision to commit crimes against society.  That's why I have very little sympathy for the lives of violent criminals like Trayvon Martin or Michael Brown, or that of lesser criminals such as recently-deceased burglar Trevon Johnson.

Relatives of Dead Teen Burglar Defend his Actions.  Some have said that people in black urban ghettos see "burglar", "thief", and "armed robber" as viable career options; that they view concealed carry permits as an OSHA safety violation.  That seems to be what is being displayed here.  It is not a viable option for a civilization.  These attitudes have been fostered by leftists for generations.  They view private property as illegitimate, and theft as property redistribution.  They have assiduously propagandized the black community with these attitudes.

Bernie's Doomed Democratic Socialism.  [Scroll down]  Rampant criminality is incompatible with the prosperity vital to generous government-financed entitlements.  Capitalist enterprises whose taxes pay the "freebies" bill will almost never remain in crime-ridden areas unless relocation is impossible (as in extractive industries such as mining) or are heavily subsidized to prevent mass unemployment.  Few employees want to risk their lives when commuting or send their children to dangerous schools.  It is no accident that crime-prone cities like East St. Louis, Missouri, or Selma, Alabama have little industry or commerce.  Consider how much more money Washington could spend on our nation's health care if the cost of fighting crime fell sharply?  And the billions saved by hospitals not having to treat gunshot wounds or drug overdoses?

Charged with Murder. Elected from Jail.  Some elected officials are sworn in at City Hall.  Others are sworn in outside the White House.  Chicago-area councilman Robert Battle was re-inaugurated from jail, where he is awaiting trial for drug and murder charges last Tuesday [1/19/2016].  As reelection bids go, Battle's was easy.  He ran uncontested for his council seat in East Chicago, Indiana.  He did not vote, although he could have requested an absentee ballot be sent to his jail cell.  But beating the charges against him might prove to be harder than getting a ballot.

New York City Set to Stop Enforcing Law Against Peeing on Sidewalks Because... RACISM!  New York City's city council is set to dilute a host of criminal laws including laws against public urination and excessive noise because council members believe too many members of minorities are getting arrested.

California woman confronts Starbucks cashier who admits to stealing her credit card information.  A California Starbucks cashier got caught red-handed stealing a customer's credit card information, and faced the grande wrath of her furious victim.  Juana Martinez unloaded a fiery tirade Sunday [1/3/2016] in Lakewood on the sticky-fingered cashier, who was stunned and admitted to the crime after being confronted by the theft victim.  The 2-minute 30-second clip has since gone viral, a penalty worse than arrest for the 19-year-old coffee shop employee, Martinez told The Daily News.

In Denial About Crime.  The campaign to deny the murder and shooting spike in many American cities continues apace.  The latest effort is a report by the Brennan Center for Justice, which the press has hailed ecstatically as a refutation of what I and others have dubbed the "Ferguson effect" — the phenomenon of officers backing off of proactive policing and thereby emboldening criminals.  In fact, the report confirms the Ferguson effect, while also showing how clueless the media are about crime and policing.  The Brennan Center researchers gathered homicide data from 25 of the nation's 30 largest cities for the period January 1, 2015, to October 1, 2015.  (Not included were San Francisco, Indianapolis, Columbus, El Paso, and Nashville.)  The researchers then tried to estimate what 2015's full-year homicide numbers for those 25 cities would be, based on the extent to which homicides were up from January to October 2015, compared with the similar period in 2014.

Chase Bank Employees Accused of Stealing $400,000 From Elderly, Dead Customers.  The defendants used their position in banking to steal Social Security funds, according to Social Security Administration Special Agent in Charge Edward J. Ryan.  "[It's] an offense against all taxpayers who contribute to Social Security and spend a lifetime working to earn those benefits," he said.  Jonathan Francis, 27, and Dion Allison, 30, both worked as personal bankers at Chase's Restoration Plaza branch at 1380 Fulton Street in Bed-Stuy.  They are accused of using their authority to electronically access dormant accounts with high balances, according to Brooklyn District Attorney Ken Thompson's office.

Two JP Morgan Chase bankers in Brooklyn indicted for stealing 400K from accounts of elderly or deceased.  Dion Allison, 31, and Jonathan Francis, 27, were personal bankers at the JPMorgan Chase branch at Restoration Plaza in Bedford-Stuyvesant and systematically searched the bank's database for accounts with high balances that weren't used except for direct deposits from Social Security, said Brooklyn Assistant District Attorney Adam Zion.  From August 2012 until October 2013, Allison and Francis allegedly found 15 accounts and issued ATM cards to co-conspirators Kery Phillips and Gregory Desrameaux, authorities said.  Eight of the accounts belonged to dead people — one of whom died in 1982.

Nutley police: Condom shoplifter had 100 aliases.  Nutley police arrested an Irvington man for allegedly shoplifting 22 boxes of condoms.  He also had 100 aliases and 60 Social Security numbers, according to authorities.  Harry Jackson, 56, was charged with fourth-degree shoplifting of the Trojan condoms, valued at $395, police said.

N.J. man allegedly steals from police Toys for Tots bin.  An Irvington man charged with shoplifting Friday [12/11/2015] stole items out of a Toys for Tots bin as he left Wayne Police Headquarters, Capt. Laurence W. Martin said.  Staroben Louis, 22, and Jaleel W. Bobbitt, 21, left Lord & Taylor in Willowbrook Mall without paying for several men's clothing items, Martin said.  Louis took merchandise valued at $430, while Bobbitt's haul was worth $198, Martin said.

Woman faces felony charges of running 'short change' scams at Target stores.  A Long Beach woman was arraigned Monday [12/7/2015] in Orange County Superior Court on allegations that she stole hundreds of dollars from Target stores in Orange County in a "short change" scheme.  Ashlie Jane Pentard, 29, was charged with eight felony counts of second-degree burglary.  She is accused of stealing $800 while checking out at Target locations in Irvine and Costa Mesa between May and December, according to the Orange County district attorney's office.

Democrats Empower Citizens to Restrict Constitutional Rights.  [Scroll down]  Just imagine if a storeowner in Illinois used crime statistics to argue that he should be allowed to ban blacks from his store.  Look at the facts; he/she may argue:  blacks are 13% of the population yet commit 56% of the robberies, 28% of the property crime, and 41% of the weapons arrests.  The fact is, the black crime rate is higher than that of whites'.  Yet no one, especially a Democrat who fights concealed carry permit laws, would dare suggest that this is a reasonable justification for a storeowner to ban blacks from entering their stores.  But storeowners fearing guns are allowed to discriminate against concealed carry permit carriers [even though] there is not one iota of evidence that concealed weapon carriers commit crimes at a rate higher than non-carriers.

Self-Hating Americans, Self-Hating Whites.  [Scroll down]  According to a 30-year study of homicides by the Justice Department, spanning 1976 to 2005, African-Americans, currently 13.2% of the population, committed 52.2% of all murders.  They were 7 times more likely to kill than whites.  For the most recent year for which arrest records by race are available, 2012, blacks committed 49.4% of murders, 32.5% of rapes, 54.9% of robberies, 30.8% of burglaries, and comprised 43.8% of prostitution and "commercialized vice" arrests.  Since the percentages don't include crimes not reported or where a suspect was not apprehended, a lot of gang-related violence is unaccounted for.  Victim surveys discredit the idea that the arrest records are skewed by police bias.

The Tragic and Complete Collapse of Racial Relations.  What has happened to racial relations?  Crime.  A small cohort of urban African-American males under fifty — no more than 3-4% of the general population — is responsible for about 50% of many of the violent crimes committed.  Blacks are 5-8 times more likely to commit rather suffer an interracial crime, which makes up less than 10% of most violent crime.  Both the analysis and solution have become taboo subjects.  Writing the above is a near thought crime.

5 Devastating Facts About Black-on-Black Crime.  [Fact #3]  Despite making up just 13% of the population, blacks committed half of homicides in the United States for nearly 30 years.  DOJ statistics show that between 1980 and 2008, black people committed 52% of homicides.  In 2013, black criminals committed 38% of the murders.  Whites accounted for just 31 percent.

The Real Story about Deceit in Racial Crime Numbers.  When you ask, white people and black people report using cocaine in about the same amount.  But when you test, black people are six times more likely to use cocaine.  And lie about it.

U.S. Postal Service worker pleads guilty to stealing gifts intended for underprivileged kids.  A Secret Santa swindler has pleaded guilty to stealing gifts intended for underprivileged kids while she worked for the U.S. Postal Service.  Mahogany Strickland, 23, copped to a misdemeanor charge of mishandling the mail Friday [10/23/2015] in Manhattan Federal Court, papers show.  She had faced up to 20 years for more serious charges of mail fraud and receipt of stolen mail.

Homicide rates
"Black America" Is A Bloody Mess.  Please read all of [Nate] Silver's analysis to see how he reached his determination, but the end result is that he determined American blacks are eight times more likely to be murdered than American whites, and while they live in an "advanced country" by any measure, they have a homicide victim rate that you'd expect from a third world hellhole.


Why cops stop blacks:  Why cops stop blacks with greater frequency is a question that has been discussed for decades, and with greater frequency since our first black president took office and introduced the concept of injecting presidential opinions and influence into local police/citizen incidents. [...] This legitimate question has become a burning and even lethal issue with some in the liberal and black community, and it is worthy of investigation.  The obvious first response is that blacks commit a disproportionate amount of crime in this country, but should one have the temerity to offer that suggestion, one is quickly branded a racist.  And we all know that liberals and race-baiters consider that charge a surefire argument-stopper, one that trumps whatever amount of statistical evidence one may produce to substantiate that blacks do indeed commit significantly more crime, proportionately, than whites, particularly crimes of violence.

TSA screener charged with stealing $7,000 diamond watch at JFK airport.  A TSA screener at John F. Kennedy International Airport was charged with steeling a passenger's $7,000 diamond watch, authorities said.  The screener, Margo Louree-Grant, 41, of Brooklyn, admitted taking the "Diamond Master" watch at a JFK checkpoint on Aug. 26, but told investigators she destroyed it after fearing she would be caught, said Joe Pentangelo, a Port Authority Police spokesman.

It's 1968 Again: Crime an Issue for 2016.  Murder is up in New York City, New Orleans, D.C., Baltimore and Chicago, just to name a few Deep Blue hot spots.  For Democrats that's a nightmare. [...] The bad old days have returned, and this surge in death and mayhem guaranties that crime will be a 2016 campaign issue.

Guardian Angels are patrolling Central Park again for the first time in two decades amid rise in crime in NYC.  [Curtis] Sliwa and eight other Guardian Angels, ranging from graying longtimers to a 20-year-old woman, trooped along roadways, paths and rocky, dark trails for hours one night this week, shining flashlights into thickets, asking people whether they'd had any trouble and eyeballing a quartet of teenagers who quickly took off on bicycles.

Man sneaks into New Jersey home, hides under bed for 3 days, police say.  A man sneaked into a central New Jersey home and hid under a bed in a spare bedroom for three days before the homeowner realized what had happened, police say.  Spotswood police say Jason Hubbard was charged with burglary in the incident, which occurred in May but wasn't made public until this week.  He's also charged with stealing electricity, according to NJ.com, because he allegedly charged his four cellphones in an electrical outlet underneath the bed.

8-month-old baby dies after EMT refuses to respond to call, officials say.  A Detroit EMT has been fired after refusing to respond to a call to help an 8-month old baby who was not breathing.  According to WDIV, Ann Marie Thomas had finished another call less than a mile away when an EMS supervisor ordered Thomas to respond to the call for service.  It's just a two-minute drive away at normal speeds, but Thomas took 6 minutes before telling dispatchers that she had parked around the corner from the scene.

Detroit EMT refuses to respond to infant in cardiac arrest.  The EMT told her boss in an internal investigation 'I'm not about to be on no scene 10 minutes doing CPR.'

Detroit EMT Refuses Call to Do CPR on Dying Child.  We certainly hope the family of this little girl has retained the meanest, nastiest, greediest personal injury lawyer licensed to practice in the state of Michigan.  It's not worth much these days, but they should get the City of Detroit in a settlement.

The New Nationwide Crime Wave.  The consequences of the 'Ferguson effect' are already appearing.  The main victims of growing violence will be the inner-city poor.

How does one get arrested 111 times without being sent up the river?
Cleveland Man Sheds Pants While Trying to Escape 111th Arrest.  A Cleveland man who was arrested for the 111th time on Tuesday shed his pants while fleeing from South Euclid police, according to an arrest report. [...] [Nathaniel] Ferguson was arrested in a similar incident in February, when he was accused of stealing teeth whitening products from CVS.  A store employee told police Ferguson is banned from all CVS locations.  Ferguson has been in and out of Northeast Ohio jails since his first criminal conviction in 1984.  Most of the charges he's racked up are related to theft, robbery and drug possession.

Interracial Crime: Media-driven versus Statistical Realities.  The FBI does not record murders by victim's race.  But no one could argue that whites murder blacks at a higher rate than blacks murder whites, given that blacks are 6.8 times as likely to murder overall.  Yet neither President Obama nor his longtime consigliere, former Attorney General Eric Holder who famously said that we are "a nation of cowards" when it comes to "race related issues" that "continue to divide us," will speak of these statistics.  Instead, the Race Industry cherry-picks violent incidents that they can exploit and then falsify as a narrative, to make it appear that blacks nationwide are under constant assault by racist whites.  Especially white cops.  They isolate a given anecdote and then speak as if it were the rule not the exception, for their political and financial gain.

The perilous new push to excuse lawlessness.  Announcing his presidential bid this month, Sen. Rand Paul said he wants to repeal "any law that disproportionately incarcerates people of color."  Fulfilling this promise would require gutting murder statutes, and most other criminal laws, given the disproportionate black crime rate.  But whether or not Paul reaches the White House, a wide-ranging movement is already under way to transform the criminal justice system in order to avoid a disparate impact on blacks.  This push will jeopardize the country's two-decade-long crime drop.

Cops find stolen gun during 'quality of life' stop.  A Brooklyn man was busted for biking on the sidewalk — one of the "quality of life" offenses the City Council wants to decriminalize — and cops found he had a stolen, loaded handgun, police said Wednesday [4/30/2015].  Leonard Roberts, 45, was spotted by two patrol cops as he illegally pedaled near the Marlboro Houses in Gravesend around 7:35 p.m. Saturday.  He was riding so fast that pedestrians had to jump out of the way, and the officers used their siren to try to get his attention.  But Roberts — who has 18 prior arrests and once served 8½ years in prison for armed robbery — ignored the cops and rode into the housing complex, police said.

Vandals caught on camera smashing car windows at Dearborn Heights dealership.  A Dearborn Heights dealership owners is offering a $1,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest in a costly vandalism act that left dozens of cars damaged.  La Marina Auto Sales owner Gus Farias said a group of teens went on a rampage at his dealership Easter night [4/5/2015], smashing car windows with cinder blocks and kicking down car mirrors.

Michael Bloomberg suggests disarming minorities to 'keep them alive'.  Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg reportedly argued Friday [2/6/2015] that guns need to be kept out of the hands of minorities in order to keep them alive.  While speaking at the Aspen Institute, Mr. Bloomberg, 72, said 95 percent of murders fall into a specific category:  a male minority between the ages of 15 and 25, The Aspen Times reported.

Another Bogus Academic Study Creates Bogus Headlines.  Thanks to the Washington Post, we have new entry in what is surely the fastest-growing industry in academia: bogus studies that purport to show there is no difference between black and white rates of crime. [...] This latest headline from the Post tells a shocking story:  "Black teens who commit a few crimes go to jail as often as white teens who commit dozens."  Or it would be shocking if it were true.  But it is not.

Selfie on stolen iPad helps Houston man ID suspects.  A Houston man said he has his iPad to thank for identifying the men who he said stole thousands of dollars in cash and electronics from his truck.  "I think they felt elated that they got away with such a big score," said Randy Schaefer.

Time: "Young Black Men Murder 14 Times More than Young White Men".  The article is a by an African-American professor and mostly it restates the obvious.  It's just that the obvious isn't much talked about.

Parents turn in their OWN KIDS for burglary after recognizing them on surveillance footage.  Two parents turned their sons over to police after recognizing them in footage of an electronics store burglary which showed a group of five teens helping themselves to stacks of cell phones and laptops.  The mom and dad — who have not been named — took their 14- and 16-year-old children to the police station in Fayetteville, North Carolina, after watching a news broadcast that featured the crime.

Federal Statistics of black on white violence, with links and mathematical extrapolation formulas.  Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder, and eight times more likely to commit robbery.  Blacks are three times more likely to use a hand gun, and twice more likely to use a knife.  Hispanics commit three times more violent crimes than whites, but the statistics are nebulous because sometimes they are classified as white, so it could be far higher.  The best indicator of violent crime levels in an area is the percent of the population that is black and Hispanic.  Blacks are 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against whites then vice versa, and 136 times more likely to commit a robbery.

The Color of Crime.  New Century Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1994 to study immigration and race relations so as to better understand the consequences of America's increasing diversity.  Perhaps the most important publication of New Century Foundation is The Color of Crime, New Century Foundation's report on differences in crime rates by race, bias in the justice system, and interracial crime.  First published as a monograph in 1999, the 2005 edition of The Color of Crime is available online as a free PDF download.

The Color of Crime.  [PDF]

Commissioner Kelly says almost 75% of violent crime committed by African-Americans.  Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly credited the controversial stop-and-frisk tactic for helping to push New York's crime rate to record lows. [...] "The stark reality is that crime happens in communities of color," Kelly told "Nightline" co-anchor Bill Weir Wednesday.  "About 70% to 75% of the people described as committing violent crimes — assault, robbery, shootings, grand larceny — are described as being African-American.  "The percentage of people who are stopped is 53% African-American," he continued.  "So really, African-Americans are being understopped in relation to the percentage of people being described as being the perpetrators of violent crime."

Study: blacks commit 90% of interracial crime.  African-Americans commit 90% of the approximately 1,700,000 interracial crimes of violence that occur in the United States every year, and are more than 50 times more likely to commit violent crime against whites than vice versa.  Blacks are so much more likely than Americans of other races to commit crimes that police may be justified in stopping and questioning them more frequently — just as they stop men more often than women and young people more often than old people.

When it comes to murder, black people should most fear black people.  A United States Department of Justice report which surveyed homicide statistics between 1974 and 2004 stated that of the crimes surveyed, 52.2% of the offenders were Black, 45.8% were White, and 2% were Other Races.  Of the victims in those same crimes, 50.9% were White, 46.9% were Black, and 2.1% were Other Races.  The report further stated that "most murders are intraracial" with 86% of White murders committed by Whites, and 94% of Black murders committed by Blacks.

Will American Liberals Ever Wake Up?  Attorney General Eric Holder, in 2009, said that Americans are cowards when it comes to discussing race.  Well, Mr. Holder, I am not a coward, so here is my discussion. [...] From New Century Foundation's The Color of Crime, we learn:
  •   Police and the justice system are not biased against minorities.
  •   Blacks are seven times more likely than people of other races to commit murder.
  •   Blacks are eight times more likely than people of other races to commit robbery.
  •   When blacks commit crimes of violence, they are nearly three times more likely than non-blacks to use a gun, and more than twice as likely to use a knife.
  •   Blacks are an estimated 39 times more likely to commit a violent crime against a white than vice-versa, and 136 times more likely to commit robbery.
  •   Blacks are 2.25 times more likely to commit officially-designated hate crimes against whites than vice versa.

Gas Station Looting Caught On Surveillance Tape.  Surveillance video taken Sunday night shows a crowd looting at a Milwaukee gas station.  It was just one of the disturbing incidents in Milwaukee's Riverwest neighborhood that evening.

Is Disagreement with Obama Racism?  When one says that race is no longer the problem it once was, it is not the same as saying that there are not major problems that confront a large segment of the black population.  Grossly fraudulent education is a major problem but it has nothing to do with racial discrimination as evidenced by the fact that the worse education received is in the very cities where blacks dominate the political structure.  Crime is a major problem but it has nothing to do with racial discrimination, particularly in light of the fact that blacks commit most of the violent crime in America and well over 90 percent of their victims are black.

Obama's Criminal Silence.  Today, I spoke briefly with a liberal member of California's education establishment (forgive the obvious tautology), who told me that his Berkeley home had recently been broken into while he was in Washington, D.C.  It's been a wake-up call, he said.  We were too lax.  We'll be putting in a security-alarm system.  And then came the clincher:  "This is a very diverse neighborhood."  Now what would possibly be the relevance of that euphemism to the likelihood of getting burgled, I wonder?

Racism is not the biggest problem that black Americans face any more.  Of course, racism does still exist and will always exist in one form or another.  That being said, we've come a long way in this country from the time when black Americans couldn't use the same water fountain as white people, had to sit at the back of the bus, and weren't allowed to go to the same schools as whites. … On the other hand, the illegitimacy rate in the black community is roughly 70% and black on black crime is more dangerous to black Americans than the KKK ever was.

A Tale of Two Cities:  The welfare state detaches rewards from behavior. … People are encouraged not to better themselves, but to think in terms of rights and entitlements. … The results are catastrophic.  Robberies and street crime – not to mention the unheard of before shootings in broad daylight – have soared to an unprecedented level.  Black gangsters are modeling themselves on Jamaican Yardies battling other gangs for control of the lucrative cocaine trade.  No one has the guts to mention that the majority of violent criminals using guns and knives are black.

Homicide trends in the U.S.:  Charts provided by the Bureau of Justice Statistics show that blacks were seven times more likely than whites to commit homicide in 2002.

Mapping the Unmentionable:  Race And Crime.  The government makes much detailed information on crime rates by race available.  But almost nobody ever tries to learn anything from it.

Milwaukee's black leaders say the enemy is within.  Black leaders in Milwaukee say their community is being torn apart from the inside.  Civil rights leaders like 57-year-old Prentice McKinney, who fought to free Milwaukee's blacks from the ghetto, say gangs, drugs and violence have left those who still live in the nation's urban cores in fear of the next generation.

The Silence of the Liberals:  The reason for the silence stares us in the face.  The gangsters themselves are largely black, and Minneapolis's political culture is absorbed in a crusade against the reality that blacks are arrested and incarcerated in numbers that substantially exceed their proportion in the general population.

Why are so many blacks in prison?  Between 1976 and 2005, blacks have been killing other people at a rate 6 to 9 times higher, every year, than the comparable homicide rates for whites.  Furthermore, these statistics are skewed in favor of blacks, because the "white" category includes also Hispanics who identify themselves as whites but whose crime rates are far higher than those of non-Hispanic whites.

Three Former JFS Workers Accused Of Food Stamp Fraud.  Former Hamilton County Jobs and Family Services workers are accused of obtaining more than $100,000 in food stamps and other benefits for friends and relatives.  Deters said Savoy Walker, Jacqueline Ward and Tamikia Mosley obtained cash, food stamps and Medicaid benefits totaling about $130,000 for 12 people.  Those 12 people, as yet unnamed, are facing charges of receiving stolen property for accepting the benefits.

Police sources say teen gang targeting the elderly responsible for dozens of home invasions.  7 Action News has learned that two Detroit teenagers have been charged with robbing the 80-year-old mother of NAACP President, Reverend Wendell Anthony.  They were arrested after a high speed chase and shootout with Detroit Police.  The teens are suspected members of a gang that has been targeting the elderly.

No justice, no agitation.  Murder is largely an intraracial crime.  Almost all murders of blacks are committed by other blacks.  Blacks as a group commit murder at a rate astronomically higher than other groups.  The rate of murder committed by blacks exceeds that committed by whites by approximately seven times. ... If race hustlers like Al Sharpton really had the interests of the black community at heart, they would devote themselves to doing everything in their power to have violent black criminals separated from the community of law-abiding black citizens.  The criminals are serial tormentors of law-abiding members of the black community.

The Old Race Card.  The Cambridge police did not act stupidly.  And if police do stereotype, it may be because 12% of the population commits almost half the violent crime in the nation.  In the case of rare black/white and white/black murdering (94% of murdered African-Americans were killed by other African-Americans), a minority is more likely to commit murder (and rape) against a majority than the majority is against the minority.

How Many Crimes Did the New Black Panthers Commit in Florida?  Let's start with solicitation to kidnap.  In announcing a reward for the seizure of [George] Zimmerman, the New Black Panthers may have violated Florida Code 787.01.  It makes it a felony to "by threat, confining or abducting, or imprisoning another person against his ... will without lawful authority with intent to ... terrorize."  Merely soliciting someone else to do this is also a felony in Florida under Florida Code 777.04.

New Black Panthers Activity Against Zimmerman May Be Criminal.  Florida law makes it a felony to unlawfully seize somebody as a mob, or "at the behest of a mob."  Again, solicitation to commit this crime is also a crime.  It's a felony, too, to interfere with the administration of government with use of force — and yes, again, solicitation is a crime.

New Black Panther Party seeks citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman.  Death threats and a $10,000 bounty offered for a citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman have raised concerns about the threat of "vigilante justice" in the racially charged case.  A group identifying itself as the New Black Panther Party is offering $10,000 to anyone who makes a citizen's arrest of George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin slaying.

Birmingham News Drops the Ball on Black-on-white Crime.  Yesterday I reported on the stabbing of white truck driver Nick Stokes by members of a black motorcycle gang called the Outcasts of Alabama.  It's not merely a scary story but also an unusual one, mostly because of the behavior of law enforcement.  The Adamsville, AL police department not only failed to question or detain any of the gangsters, but, outrageously, also told Stokes that they "don't mess" with the Outcasts.  What isn't at all unusual about the story is the mainstream media's reluctance to cover a case of black-on-white crime.  In particular, I cited the Birmingham News (BN), whose crime-beat reporter, Carol Robinson, had brusquely dismissed the incident as not newsworthy.

Cops: Fast-food worker spit in customers' drinks.  A South Carolina county's deputies say a McDonald's employee spit in two customers' cups of iced tea after the drinks were returned because they weren't sweet enough.

South Carolina McDonald's employee, arrested for spitting in customers' drink.  Greenville County investigators say surveillance video caught [Marvin] Washington [Jr.] leaning over the cups before he filled them Saturday [4/21/2012] at the restaurant.

Marvin Washington, Junior, is merely following in the footsteps of the "black community leader", Jesse Jackson.  See below.

Look it up!  Life Magazine, November 29th, 1969, Page 68.
Spitting in Whitey's Food.  Jackson talks about himself at these meetings.  Once he told of his days as a waiter at the Jack Tar Hotel in his home town of Greenville, S.C.  Just before leaving the kitchen he would spit into the food of white patrons he hated and then smilingly serve it to them.  He did this, he said, "because it gave me psychological gratification."  It was something everybody in the audience understood.

Ugly Truths About Prejudice.  [Scroll down]  The source of this nasty prejudice about blacks and crime is the fact that black crime rates are extremely high.  Most of it is directed against other blacks, but that doesn't change the perception by Americans (black, white, or purple).  Black murder rates are roughly 4.5x what you would expect for their proportion of the population, with similarly disproportionate rates for robbery (4x), aggravated assault (3x), burglary (3x), forgery and counterfeiting (3x), fraud (3x), and rape (3x).  You don't have to read the FBI Uniform Crime Reports to know this, either.  Essentially everyone (white or black) who has ever lived in an urban area in the U.S. has first-hand experience of this.  There is only one way to fix this problem of racial prejudice — and that is to reduce black crime rates to a level commensurate with the black population.  The glorification of criminality in urban black culture is shocking and destructive.  It encourages more of the same, and teaches young black men that this is an acceptable cultural form.

Sharpton could use a visit to Chicago.  Well, Sharpton isn't as guilty of it as others — and yes, think Michael Eric Dyson and Tavis Smiley here — but there have been times when he has lamented the numbers of black men in prisons and jails.  There is absolutely nothing wrong with black men being in either jail or prison if that happens to be where they belong.

Teens Arrested For Cutting Hole in Mall Roof to Steal Air Jordans.  Two teenagers were arrested this week after cutting into the roof of a mall in Houston to steal Nike Air Jordan sneakers.  A security guard at Greenspoint mall, on the north side of Houston, saw the thieves in the Foot Action store early Wednesday morning [8/22/2012] and called police.  John Grant, 19, and another male, 16, were arrested at the scene, but a third suspect believed to be around the same age fled.

Someone In Detroit Pointed A Gun At A Google Street View Car.  Google captures its Street View images by literally driving a camera-equipped car down the road while snapping photos.  As such, the company tends to capture some weird images.  [One image], captured by a Google car in Detroit, clearly shows a group of people hanging out on a porch brandishing a gun.  Another image clearly shows one of them taking aim at the Google car.

Detroit ranked most dangerous city in the country fourth year in a row.  For the fourth years in a row, Forbes.com has rated Detroit, Michigan, as the most dangerous city in the country — with a violent crime rate of 2,137 per 100,000 residents.

Detroit Tops The 2012 List Of America's Most Dangerous Cities.  The best crime news out of Detroit these days is that the rate of violent crimes — murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — fell 10% last year to 2,137 per 100,000 residents.  That's still more than five times the national average and more than enough to make Detroit America's Most Dangerous City for the fourth year in a row.

D.C. barbershop owner pleads guilty in $20 million ID fraud operation.  The owner of a D.C. barbershop pleaded guilty to a $20 million identity theft and tax fraud scheme that stole personal information from nursing home patients, dead people and victims who were duped into believing they were getting "Obama Stimulus Money."  The massive scam involved more than 100 participants, including postal workers and bank tellers, who schemed to file more than 7,000 fake tax returns seeking to rip off $20 million over six years.

A list of the scariest — and safest — cities.  It's a good thing this column is available online, so that residents of Memphis, New Orleans and Riverside, California can learn how unsafe their city is without having to venture outside.  Those are the bottom three metropolitan areas where residents said they felt least safe walking alone at night in their neighborhood.

80-year-old Flint man fires shots at five robbery suspects.  An 80-year-old Flint man fired two shots at five male teenagers attempting to rob him Thursday, April 11 in the driveway of his Helber Street home.  The homeowner called police around 9:45 p.m. to the home and told officers he'd fired two shots at the suspects, who had guns, in self defense, according to a police report.

The Editor says...
It's Flint, Michigan, there were five thugs fighting one old man, and there's no mention of the suspects' descriptions.  Therefore the perpetrators must have been black.  Prove me wrong and I will post a retraction.

Deadbeat dad has 22 kids with 14 women, sued for child support.  Orlando Shaw guessed he had fathered 18 children with 17 women, but he really has 22 children with 14 women, making him the "most expensive deadbeat dad" in Tennessee history.  Shaw appeared in court in Nashville when Child Support Services sued on behalf of the mothers for tens of thousands of dollars in unpaid child support over the years.

The Neighborhood Zimmerman Watched.  From the start the facts seemed to be of little importance to the prosecution of George Zimmerman, whether at the State's table in Florida's 18th Circuit Court or in the court of public opinion.  The forces lined up against Zimmerman worked diligently to bury the background to his confrontation with Travyon Martin in February of 2012 — namely, the rampant crime, frequently committed by black males, that had put his neighborhood on edge.  As the "conversation" about the Zimmerman case and about race in America continues, these widely neglected facts should be exhumed.

Scheindlin's List.  In 2012, 74% of shooting victims in New York City were black, as were 75% of those arrested for these shootings.  Blacks also comprised 73% of all firearm arrests.  They were also the victim 38% of the time, and the arrestee in 48% of all rapes.  60% of murder victims were black, as were 51% of those arrested for murder.  Blacks were the victim of 32% of all robberies and were the arrestee 62% of the time.  52% of those arrested for felonious assault were black.

The Most Corrupt Village in America.  When the police stopped Luvina Mobley Smith, they found a pound of pot in her car and five EBT food stamp cards which drug dealers often take in payment for drugs.  It would have been an ordinary enough story except that Smith, despite being a convicted felon, was also the Deputy Clerk of Alorton.  Luvina is the daughter of Callie Mobley, Alorton's former mayor, who had collected double her salary and served time in jail for income tax evasion.  Mayor Mobley, who had been the mayor of Alorton for two decades, had been doing the same thing back to her days as liquor commissioner. [...] Alorton, an African-American village run by Democrats, may actually be the most corrupt village in Illinois and the United States.

Pennsylvania Democrats Walk Out of Hearing on Members Accused of Taking Bribes.  This morning, the Pennsylvania House State Government Committee held a hearing on the case of the Democrats caught accepting bribes in exchange for voting against voter ID in the state.  The case against the Democrats is well-documented, yet Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane, a Democrat, scuttled it shortly after she took office.  Kane also accused the career investigators who built the case of racism.  That charge doesn't stand up to any level of scrutiny.  The investigation targeted Republicans and Democrats, male and female, black and white.  As it so happens, only Democrats chose to accept the bribes, and those members who did happen to be black.

How Covering up Minority Crime Leads to Gun Control.  Why is it that Vermont, with approximately the same rate of gun ownership as Louisiana, has less than one-eighth the murder rate? [...] In the cases of homicide in 2012 in which the races of the perpetrators were known, 55 percent were committed by blacks, 62 percent of whom were under 30 years of age.  Black youths are 16 percent of the youth population, but constitute 52 percent of those arrested for juvenile violent crime. [...] And while whites are 35 percent of NYC's population, blacks and Hispanics commit 96 percent of all crime in the Big Apple and 98 percent of all gun crime.

Home Owner Wants Out Of Scenic City Due To Chattanooga Gun Crime.  This is Michael Barr's home, it's a historic 4 bedroom house he says he has put over 80k into renovations since 2012.  But for the veteran originally from Maryville Tennessee, this dream home has become a nightmare.  "Closer to downtown, we are here on east 14th street, a lot of the cars here make my house vibrate from the music coming out of their cars every time a car does drive by i'm [sic] always looking up to see if there will be a gun sticking out of the window to shoot me[.]"  Earlier this week 4 teens were shot just feet from his front door after he says others tried to break into his home.

Airport baggage handlers booked on theft charges after guns, electronics go missing from luggage.  Three baggage handlers at Louis Armstrong International Airport were arrested Thursday (Sept. 24) in connection with the theft of guns and electronics from checked luggage, the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office said in a news release.  Neishel Santana, 22 was booked on charges of theft and possession of stolen property.  Derrin James, 19, was booked on two counts of theft of a firearm.  Romalice Honeycutt, 23, was booked on a charge of being a principal to theft of a firearm.  They were caught after Dallas law enforcement, investigating the theft of a laptop from luggage on an American Airlines flight out of New Orleans, found out through a pawn-shop database that the computer had been sold at Jefferson Parish pawn shop and contacted local authorities.

Woman accused of filing fake $94 million tax return.  A woman accused of filing a phony state tax return for $94 million was arrested when she attempted to claim her check at a Cobb County bank, Channel 2 Action News reported.  Brigitte Jackson was arrested and charged with attempted theft by taking and conspiracy to defraud the state, according to an investigator with the Georgia Department of Revenue.  "It doesn't matter if it's $94 or $94 million," Special Investigations Chief Josh Waites told Channel 2.  "We're going to go after you and hold you accountable."

4-year-old hands out heroin at daycare.  A Delaware mother was arrested on Monday [10/6/2014] after her four-year-old daughter unknowingly brought roughly 250 packets of heroin to her daycare, and passed them out to classmates thinking they were candy, police said.

Wichita man sentenced in theft of wedding ring from dying woman.  A Wichita man has been sentenced to prison for his role in the theft of a wedding ring from a dying woman's hand.  Forty-three-year-old Danielle Zimmerman was pulling into southeast Wichita Taco Bell drive-thru last December when she suffered a brain aneurism.  While unconscious in her car, her purse, cell phone and wedding ring were stolen.  She died the next day at an area hospital.  Police later arrested three suspects:  Daquantrius Shaquill Johnson, Quanique Dontrell Thomas-Hameen and Keith Byron Hickels, Jr., all 19 years old.

New Data: It's Still about Black-on-Black Crime.  Unfortunately, the FBI continues its usual practice of combining whites and Hispanics into the single category "white," thus overstating white crime and victimization rates.  Even so, the data are telling.  A "white" homicide victim is over twice as likely to be killed by a black than a black homicide victim is to be killed by a "white."  Sixteen percent of "white" victims in homicide incidents involving a single victim and single offender were killed by blacks, compared with only 7 percent of black victims who are killed by "whites."  Given the fact that blacks are less than 13 percent of the national population, their homicide rate against whites and Hispanics combined is vastly disproportionate to their share of the population.

Quite possibly the most racist article you will ever read.  Every now and then you come across an article that folks just need to read.  This one written by Michael Smith entitled, "Confessions of a Public Defender" and originally posted at American Renaissance on May 9, 2014 is one of those articles.

Confessions of a Public Defender.  I am a public defender in a large southern metropolitan area.  Fewer than ten percent of the people in the area I serve are black but over 90 percent of my clients are black. [...] The media invariably sugarcoat black behavior.  Even the news reports of the very crimes I dealt with in court were slanted.  Television news intentionally leaves out unflattering facts about the accused, and sometimes omits names that are obviously black.  All this rocked my liberal, tolerant beliefs, but it took me years to set aside my illusions and accept the reality of what I see every day.

Lisa Crinel, former Zulu queen, charged in alleged $30 million Medicare fraud scheme.  Prominent New Orleans businesswoman Lisa Crinel, the 2004 Zulu Queen, faces federal charges in a scheme prosecutors say defrauded Medicaid for $30 million for bogus home health care fees, according to an indictment announced Thursday (March 12) by U.S. Attorney Kenneth Polite.  Crinel, 51, the owner of Abide Home Health Services, was one of 20 people named in the 26-count indictment alleging that from 2008 until charges were filed Thursday [3/12/2015], her company was the centerpiece of a scam that charged Medicaid program for services clients either didn't need or were never performed.

Black crime in Waukesha and Kenosha, Wisconsin

BLM [Rioter] In Kenosha Is Sentenced To 5 Years.  A Kenosha man has been sentenced to five years in federal prison, convicted of obstructing an officer during 2020 unrest that followed the police shooting of Jacob Blake.  Ashton Howard, 29, pleaded guilty to the offense in 2021, according to a news release from the U.S. Department of Justice.  Court filings said Howard was part of a crowd that gathered near the location of the shooting.  Officials said some members of that crowd became violent, and a police vehicle was damaged.  As officers tried to move the damage vehicle, Howard threw a brick at one of them.  The DOJ said the officer was knocked unconscious and taken to a hospital.  [Video clip]

The Guilty Justify Their Cruel and Anti-Social Values.  The trial of Darrell E. Brooks for the intentional vehicular homicide of six persons and the injuring of 61 other persons at a Thanksgiving/Christmas parade on November 21, 2021 is now concluded.  Brooks was found guilty of all counts and has been sentenced to six consecutive life sentences plus about 1000 years for the death and suffering his atrocious act caused in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  Under Wisconsin law, there is no death penalty, and Wisconsin in fact was the first state to abolish the death penalty in 1853.

Darrell Brooks Jr., Wisconsin Christmas parade killer, sentenced to six consecutive life sentences.  Darrell Brooks Jr., the man convicted of killing six people when he plowed his red Ford SUV through a Christmas parade last year in Wisconsin, was sentenced on Wednesday to six consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole for each count of first-degree intentional homicide.  Brooks, 41, stared, glared, and disrupted Waukesha County Judge Jennifer R. Dorow as she delivered over an hour of emotional remarks before kicking him out of the courtroom.  Brooks returned to the main courtroom nearly an hour later — and began loudly fighting with the jurist — before he was sent back to an adjacent room, where he learned his fate.

BLM supporter who mowed down, killed Christmas parade watchers found guilty of multiple murders.  An avowed Black Lives Matter supporter who slammed into mostly white attendees at a Waukesha, Wis., Christmas parade last year has learned his fate.  A jury announced on Wednesday that members voted to convict Darrell Brooks on six counts of vehicular homicide and other charges, including the death of an eight-year-old boy named Jackson Parks.

Black Lives Matter supporter receives 6 life sentences for Christmas parade massacre in Wisconsin.  A Waukesha County jury announced Wednesday that it had voted to convict Darrell Brooks on numerous murder and reckless endangerment charges over an attack carried out last year in which he plowed his SUV through crowds at a Christmas parade, killing six people. [...] The Black Lives Matter supporter and repeat offender represented himself at trial and frequently displayed erratic behavior, including regular outbursts.  He also repeatedly said he did not "consent" to being called Darrell Brooks, but instead tried to claim he was the "state of Wisconsin."  He accused the judge of not having a license to practice law and of violating her oath of law, often interspersing seemingly random legal terms as if they represented a valid motion in court.  Brooks was out on just a $1,000 bail prior to the murders, thanks to left-wing Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm's office.

Judge Kicks Alleged Waukesha Killer Out Of Courtroom Again.  The judge of the alleged Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade killer's trial removed him from the courtroom again for disruption Friday before saying she had never dealt with a more difficult trial case.  Judge Jennifer Dorow called an early trial break for lunch after Darrell Brooks loudly argued with her over a supposed letter he wanted to submit as evidence, despite not bringing it into the courtroom, and accused the prosecution of lying about his criminal history.  When she returned, Brooks was shown on video in a different room reading a Bible, and Dorow said he had established a history of disruptive, delaying and disrespectful behavior.

[The] Waukesha Mass Murderer [is Being] Treated With Kid Gloves.  The influence of Critical Race Theory is apparent in the trial of Darrell Brooks for the automobile massacre of six innocent people and injury to 60-plus individuals at a parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin in November 2021.  Additionally, we can see the influence of such disparate movements as feminism, deconstructionist philosophy, and nihilism.  These varied influences have enveloped the trial with an Alice in Wonderland aura, where there is virtuous posturing but not sufficient rationality, dignity, professionalism, and seriousness in play.  The two mainstays of Brooks's defense, acting as his own lawyer, are (1) that he is not Darrell Brooks and (2) that the court does not have a right to try him as, somehow, it lacks jurisdiction to try murder cases in the state of Wisconsin even though it is a Wisconsin state court.  Thus, he is not the defendant named, and the court is not the proper court. [...] It is a tiresome charade at best, and it identifies the defendant as unserious, a disruptive clown attempting to make a sham out of his trial.

Waukesha Massacre Suspect Darrell Brooks Jr.  Makes a Mockery of his Murder Trial.  Darrell Brooks Jr., the man accused of killing six people and injuring dozens more after driving his SUV into a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, last year, is making a mockery of his trial with his disruptive behavior.  Brooks is facing 76 charges, including six counts of first-degree intentional homicide, each of which carries a mandatory life sentence.  On Thursday, Brooks, who represents himself at trial, erroneously argued for the case against him to be dismissed because he did not receive "verified copies" of court documents, Fox News reported.  However, Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge Jennifer Dorow called Brooks' arguments "ridiculous."

This defense is utterly insane — but still worth a try.
Waukesha Parade Massacre Defendant Demands The Case Be Suspended Because The Victims Aren't In Court.  Darrell Brooks Jr., the 40-year-old Milwaukee man accused of killing six people and mowing down dozens more at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, last year, raged in court and called into question the credibility of witnesses while cross-examining them in court Thursday.  Brooks, who is representing himself, has repeatedly interrupted the court since the very beginning of his trial.  On multiple occasions, Judge Jennifer Dorow has ordered him out the courtroom.

The Bizarre Circus-Trial of the Wisconsin Christmas Parade Murderer.  The trial is underway in Wisconsin for Darrell E. Brooks, who is charged with "six counts of intentional homicide with the use of a dangerous weapon (his SUV), and more than 60 counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety and six counts of fatal hit and run, according to an amended complaint."  The trial format is allowing Brooks to be his own attorney, which means he can question witnesses, offer objections, request grounds for overruling of objections, and interact directly with the judge.  The judge, Jennifer Dorow, is beautiful, poised, and patient in her explanations to Brooks and in her overall conduct of the proceedings.  In our time, high-profile cases involving black defendants put a special burden on our court system, as there are many who assume that our courts are overwhelmed by bias against black defendants so that a fair trial is almost impossible.  The judge's patience and goodwill notwithstanding, it is clear to this writer that for many commentators as well as citizens, Brooks is not only innocent until proven guilty, but innocent whether proven guilty or not.  No "proof" will meet the standard of viability for justice in our legal system because many on the left say that our legal principles are inherently biased against people "of color."

Six charges dropped at pretrial hearing against accused Waukesha Christmas Parade terrorist Darrell Brooks.  According to a report from Fox 6, on Thursday, August 25th, Darrell Brooks was in court at a hearing that was mainly focused on determining what will and what will not be allowed in as evidence during his trial, which is set for October.  [Tweet]  Brooks is the man accused in the Waukesha Christmas Parade attack back in November 2021 where he allegedly drove an SUV directly into the crowd, killing six and injuring another 62 people, including young children.  During the hearing on August 25th, Waukesha County Judge Jennifer Dorow sided with the defense and nixed Counts 78-83, a total of six counts of homicide by vehicle and use of a controlled substance.  The judge ruled that there cannot be multiple punishments for the same crime.

Racist Black Supremacist Who Killed 6 People In Parade With His Car In Waukesha Gets Booted Out Of Court After Outburst.  Darrell Brooks Jr., the man accused of ramming an SUV into a Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade last year, was escorted out of court Friday following an outburst.  Brooks yelled at Judge Jennifer Dorow and the courtroom gallery, expressing his boredom toward the end of the proceeding Friday, before she denied Brooks' legal team's motions to dismiss and suppress evidence in the case ahead of his October trial.  [Video clip]

Here's How The DOJ And FBI Are Spending Their Time Instead Of Rooting Out Actual Extremists.  The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) concealed black nationalist violence while emphasizing white supremacy in a March report about "extremism and murder in the United States" in 2021.  "White supremacists killed more people in 2021 than any other type of extremist, though not an outright majority, as is often the case," the ADL stated.  The report cited 13 white supremacist killings in 2021 and two by black nationalists.  However, the report did not include black nationalist Darrell Brooks who allegedly struck more than 60 people and killed six at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, in November of 2021.  Brooks reportedly shared social media posts calling for violence against white people and claiming Hitler was right to kill Jews.

Darrell Brooks' attorneys seek a change of venue and file not guilty pleas in the Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy case.  Darrell Brooks Jr. on Friday [2/11/2022] pleaded not guilty to 77 charges, including six homicide counts, tied to the Waukesha Christmas Parade tragedy, but what exactly his defense team has in mind became clearer one day earlier.  In separate motions Thursday, defense attorney Jeremy Perri filed two key requests on behalf of the 39-year-old Milwaukee man, including a change of venue request that was not immediately discussed.  On Friday, the charges were formally presented in Waukesha County Circuit Court during Brooks' arraignment hearing, in which Perri requested an additional court date in front of a different judge — another twist in the nearly 3-month-old case.

Waukesha massacre suspect Darrell Brooks pleads not guilty to all charges.  The Milwaukee man accused of killing six people and running over dozens with an SUV at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisc. pleaded not guilty to every charge laid against him.  According to the local Fox affiliate, Darrell Brooks, 39, pleaded not guilty to all 77 charges against him.

Judge to decide if Wisconsin parade suspect will stand trial for murder.  A Milwaukee man accused of killing six people and injuring dozens more when he drove an SUV through a suburban Christmas parade must stand trial, a court commissioner ordered Friday [1/14/2022].  Prosecutors have presented "ample" evidence to show Darrell Brooks Jr. probably committed felonies, Waukesha County Court Commissioner Kevin Costello said at the end of a preliminary hearing.  That's the point in the criminal justice process where court officials decide whether there's enough proof to bind defendants over for trial.

Darrell Brooks faces 71 new charges in Waukesha parade massacre.  The man charged in the deadly vehicle attack in Waukesha, Wisconsin, on Nov. 21 has been dealt a bevy of new counts that deal mainly with the dozens of people who were injured.  Darrell Brooks, 39, already facing six counts of first-degree intentional homicide in the Christmas parade attack, is now facing 71 additional charges, according to an amended criminal complaint Wednesday [1/12/0222].  These novel charges consist of 61 counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety, six counts of hit-and-run resulting in death, two counts of felony bail jumping, and two counts of misdemeanor battery.

Controversial bail hearing not recorded; human error blamed.  The only people who know what happened in a Milwaukee County courtroom last month when Darrell E. Brooks Jr. — now charged with six homicides in the Waukesha Christmas Parade attack — was released on $1,000 bail are those there that day.  They're not talking.  And there is no audio recording of what happened.  Court officials say they only discovered the missing recording after the Waukesha parade attack, when they fielded media requests for copies of the recording of the hearing.

The Editor says...
Routine recordings and documentation often disappear when they contain information that is potentially embarrassing to the government.

Tucker Carlson, Sean Duffy Torch the Liberal Media for Neglecting Waukesha.  Wednesday night [12/15/2021] on his eponymous Fox News Channel show, host Tucker Carlson and former Congressman Sean Duffy (R-WI) lambasted the liberal media and their allies in elected office for having moved on from the deadly November 15 attack on the Waukesha, Wisconsin Christmas parade as the facts of the case run conflict with the left's narratives about America.  Put simply, as both acknowledged, it largely comes down to a few factors, most notably race and religion.

The Whitewashing of Black Crime.  Media tongues suddenly stopped wagging after a young black man drove his car into a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing six and injuring dozens.  Darrell Edward Brooks, a career criminal with a forty-four page vitae of lawbreaking, deliberately plowed his car through a marching group and onlookers in what many considered a blatant and premeditated act of domestic terror.  Brooks effectively made that case in his own social media postings, characterizing himself as a child abusing, Hitler-coddling anti-Semite and BLM acolyte with a predilection to run down elderly whites.  Suddenly faced with an incident at odds with the progressive race narrative and no white scapegoats in sight, CNN, MSNBC, and liberal newspaper outlets cashiered all arrest photographs of Brooks save one released by the police a day after the initial mugshot.  In the updated close-up, Brooks appears bug-eyed and washed-out, the melanin drained from his face as if the strong lighting of an arrest processing room were all that was needed to flesh out the white supremacist from the black xenophobe.  MSNBC fabulists Joe Scarborough, Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, and Chris Hayes gave Waukesha an outright cold shoulder.

Suspected Waukesha SUV Driver Facing More Charges for Another Alleged Crime, Mainstream Media Remains Silent.  Darrell Brooks Jr., who is alleged to have driven the SUV that killed six people and injured many more during last month's Christmas parade in Waukesa, Wiconsin, faces more charges in another crime.  Not surprisingly, most of that coverage has come from local news outlets.  The other incident involves a 30-year old woman who is the mother of Brooks' daughter and whom he proposed marriage to over the phone last month.  Brooks has also been charged with running her over last month with the same car.

Mainstream Media Silent On Darrell Brooks Because He's Black And His Victims Were White, Report Says.  Mainstream media networks are curiously silent on Darrell Brooks, the driver of the SUV that killed several people during a recent event, because of his skin color as well as that of his victims', a report says.  NewsBusters reported that if Brooks was White and his victims were a crowd of Black people, the mainstream "media would still be talking about Waukesha."  The report is referring to Wisconsin's Waukesha Christmas Parade that turned tragic this year as Brooks intentionally drove his Ford Escape SUV straight into the crowd on Nov. 21.  Brooks injured 48 people and killed five as his SUV plowed through two groups of dancers, as well as, bystanders that included children and elderly.  Mainstream media networks CNN and MSNBC have rarely given attention to the tragic incident despite its news worthiness and gravity, NewsBusters noted.  The media outlet cited the few occasions the incident was actually reported in the days that followed Nov. 21.

[He] Who Ran Over And Murdered Grandmothers And Children Says He Feels Demonized And Dehumanized.  Darrell Brooks Jr. has spent the last 10 days locked up in a Wisconsin jail cell after allegedly mowing through the barricades and into revelers at the Waukesha Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring 62.  Now he feels "dehumanized," he told Fox News Digital Wednesday [12/1/2021] in his first remarks to the media, seemingly surprised that he had visitors.  [Video clip]

What an amazing coincidence.
Record of Waukesha massacre suspect's $1,000 bail hearing missing due to 'technical issues'.  The early November bail hearing of Darrell Brooks, the man who prosecutors say plowed his car into the Waukesha Christmas parade on November 21, is reportedly gone from records due to "technical issues."  On November 5, just 16 days before prosectors say Brooks killed 6 and injured more than 60, Court Commissioner Cedric Cornwall set his bail at an "inappropriately low" amount of $1,000 in a court hearing that has been lost to time, Fox 6 has learned.

ADL Ignores Waukesha Attacker's Anti-White Extremism, Claims He's Not a Follower of Any 'Extremist Ideology'.  The Waukesha attacker is not a follower of any "extremist ideology," so long as you ignore all his anti-white extremism.  "According to our experts, the suspect who drove into a Christmas parade in Waukesha.  WI, killing 6 & injuring dozens more shared antisemitic content on social media in 2015, but he does not appear to actively subscribe to an extremist ideology," the Anti-Defamation League said in a post on Thursday [12/2/2021].  [Tweet]  Apparently, sharing "antisemitic content" is the only thing that makes you an "extremist."  Darrell Brooks made one post in 2015 with a completely made up Hitler quote full of gibberish and they define that as "antisemitic content" but his dozens of anti-white posts aren't evidence of anything.

Contrasting Coverage of Waukesha and Kenosha Shows Media Never Learns Its Lesson.  In Waukesha, 39-year-old Darrell Brooks now faces six counts of intentional homicide after he drove his SUV through a crowded Christmas parade route on Nov. 21.  Law enforcement officials say he drove in a weaving pattern, leading them to conclude that he was intentionally striking the parade participants.  Brooks has a long arrest record.  In fact, he was accused of punching a woman and running her over with his car just weeks earlier.  The woman was reportedly the mother of his child, and the car he used was the same SUV he drove through the parade on Nov. 21.  He also has a history of sharing violent content on social media.  Brooks, who is black, has posted content that promotes violence against white people.  It is curious, then, since all of the people killed in Waukesha were white, that scant few news outlets have dug into his online presence as they have with other criminal suspects.  In fact, the media was strangely reluctant to describe the assailant accurately and showed very little interest in understanding his possible motives.

Willie Horton and the Democratic Party's Greatest Fear.  [Scroll down]  Fast-forward to November 21, 2021. In the tranquil suburban community of Waukesha, Wisconsin, a vicious bigot named Darrell Brooks — free on bail with multiple pending felonies, one being his recent attempt to run over his onetime girlfriend with his SUV — allegedly drove through a Christmas parade, running down as many innocent people as he could, killing at least five, injuring some sixty more.  Media-watchers have already begun to comment on how relatively little detailed coverage there has been.  We have noticed blatant photo-editing techniques used to lighten the perpetrator's skin in media photos.  We have seen a surprising lack of MSM interest in both the man's history and his apparent motive.  We have seen, if anything, a textbook case in how to all but bury a story too big to dismiss.  The night it happened, we knew he was a criminal out on a ridiculously low bail.  We knew he was a career criminal with a rap sheet a mile long.  But what we have learned since is that he is a test case of modern Democrat party policy — he is the ultimate conclusion of what today's Democrats refer to as "criminal justice reform," one of the fundamental campaign issues of the entire national party for several cycles now.

Waukesha: The media whitewashes anti-white hate.  Anyone expecting to find extensive news coverage of the Darrell E. Brooks mass murders at the Waukesha Christmas parade can save their time.  It's not there.  The mainstream media is doing what it does best when the perpetrator is black and the victims are white.  They don't report on it. [...] Whatever headlines did show up for the first few days often stated that this was a "crash."  On day one after the murders, the headline in the New York Daily News read:  "Driver Darrell Brooks facing 5 counts of first-degree homicide for Wisconsin parade crash."  The most recent New York Times story I could find about the Waukesha mass murders was on November 25, on p. A16.  It was all about bail reform, which seems to concern the Times editors more than the man responsible for the carnage.

A Tale of Two Cities:  Kenosha vs. Waukesha.  Not long after one Rittenhouse was acquitted, one Darrell Brooks, Jr., an African-American with a 20-year record of serious felonies, allegedly drove his car deliberately into a Christmas parade in Waukesha, killing 6 innocents and injuring over 60.  Unlike the dishonest media reaction lying about Rittenhouse, who had no criminal record, there was initial careful restraint not to identify the career criminal Brooks as the murderous driver who weaponized his vehicle against parade-goers.  Despite first-hand accounts from bystanders that the lethal driver was an African-American with dreadlocks, the media, feigning unaccustomed professionalism in this instance, withheld rush-to-judgment identification and culpability.  Joe Biden — for a moment — was commendably quiet in editorializing about the racial motivations or ideology of a suspect.  For a while the media ran with its own concocted rumor that Brooks merely was fleeing from an "altercation" and apparently had mistakenly turned the wrong way into a crowd — despite videos showing the driver deliberately ramming through street barriers repeatedly to seek out targets.  Intent likely explains why he killed and injured so many innocents.

Give Leftist Thugs All the Due Process They Can Handle.  The loathsome anti-pallor rapper known as "Mathboi Fly" is accused of driving an SUV through a parade of pallor people in Wisconsin, and as conservatives we need to aggressively demand that he given every bit of due process he can take.  Despite the media's — if you pardon the expression — whitewash of what seems likely to be a racist vendetta spurred on by the garbage cesspool of Marxist/BLM/CRT lies he swam in, the evidence we have seen seems to point inextricably to this being a racial terror attack by a criminal degenerate.  Which is why is it so important, so transcendently vital, that we make sure this person gets every right due him as an accused.

Wisconsin senators ask lawmakers to not politicize Waukesha attack.  Wisconsin's two US senators came together from across the aisle to call for an end to bipartisan bickering in the wake of the Waukesha Christmas parade attack.  Sens. Tammy Baldwin (D) and Ron Johnson (R) issued a rare joint statement Saturday calling on outside groups and individuals to "cease and desist" using the SUV ambush that killed six people and injured more than five dozen "for their own political purposes."  The statement didn't call out any specific outside groups or individuals.  Local officials' "top priority is to begin the healing process within Waukesha by providing comfort and support to surviving family members of the deceased, and those injured both in body and spirit," the senators wrote.

Waukesha Shows Just How Out of Touch Democrats Are With Americans.  Joe Biden is doubling down on supporting bail reform — the same kind of "bail reform" that allowed Darrell Brooks to roam free for $1,000 when he made reduced bail after hitting his girlfriend with his car.  A few weeks after that incident, Brooks used that same car to hit dozens of people, killing six in Waukesha, Wisc.  But Biden thinks that despite six dead people — including an eight-year-old boy — there's nothing wrong with the policy of ending or reducing cash bail.

The Consequences of Leftist Crime Policies.  This week, a 39-year-old black man in Waukesha, Wisconsin, plowed a maroon Ford Escape into a Christmas parade of children and older women.  Five people were killed and another 48 were injured.  The motive of the suspect is unknown; if the media have their way, it will remain that way.  The media apparently only care about why suspects commit violent acts when motives can be credited to their political enemies.  There is one thing we do know: the suspect should not have been on the street.  He had a rap sheet longer than the first five books of the Bible.  His latest alleged crime took place on Nov. 5, when he was charged with resisting an officer, bail jumping, recklessly endangering safety, disorderly conduct and battery.  First, he allegedly slammed the mother of his child with his fist, and then ran her over [...] in a maroon Ford Escape.  He was released on Friday ... on $1,000 bail.  Two days later, he ran his vehicle over innocent victims.  The Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office has now opened an investigation into the low bail.  But we already know just why the bail process allowed the suspect back out onto the street:  equity demanded it.

11-Year-Old Waukesha Christmas Parade Victim Remains on Ventilator in Critical Condition.  Mother Amber Kohnke spent Thanksgiving at the bedside of her 11-year-old daughter, who remains in the hospital on a ventilator and in critical condition after 39-year-old Darrell E. Brooks Jr. reportedly rammed his SUV through the Waukesha Christmas Parade, killing six and injuring sixty-two.  Eleven-year-old Jessalyn Torres was dancing in the Waukesha parade on November 21 and was one of 16 children admitted to Children's Hospital Wisconsin after the callous rampage, according to a press release from the hospital.

Erasing the Waukesha Massacre in real time.  It is the headline that may have flipped Debra Messing red.  The Washington Post reported, "Here's what we know so far on the sequence of events that led to the Waukesha tragedy caused by a SUV."  The SUV did it!  She tweeted, "Dear Mainstream Media — a man intentionally drove his car through a parade killing 6 and injuring 50+.  "It was not an ACCIDENT. [...] WaPo was not the only media outlet that won't call a massacre a massacre.  Fox tattle-taled, "MSNBC's Rachel Maddow failed to mention career criminal Darrell Brooks during Waukesha parade attack segment.  Maddow only referred to Brooks as 'the suspect' despite identity being public knowledge."  He's not a suspect.  We do not need to call in Columbo.  We know he did it.  The question is whether he was sane enough to be held accountable for his actions.  He killed them but we presume he is innocent of murder until the state proves its case.

Decolonize This!  The vehicular mass homicide at a Waukesha, Wisconsin, Christmas parade, carried out by a walking stereotype of a dangerously deranged antisocial maniac named Darrell Brooks, who advertised his racial animosities lavishly on public video and Twitter, is taking the starch out of the popular "white supremacy" meme brandished by the likes of President "Joe Biden" and his dwindling corps of admirers.

Accused Waukesha Killer's Hatred Revealed in Sick Posts, Urged Others to 'Knock Out' White People.  It turns out that mass murder suspect Darrell Brooks, who allegedly drove an SUV through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, on Sunday, killing six and wounding dozens more, hates white people.  The career criminal's rap sheet is 44 pages long.  Brooks is an aspiring rapper who goes by the stage name "MathBoi Fly," according to the Daily Mail.  This week, the outlet published screen shots of posts from his now-deleted Facebook account.

Waukesha Killer Bragged About Being a Terrorist, Wanted to Kill Whites, Police Say It's Not Terror.  On social media postings Waukesha terrorist, Darrell Brooks, as we reported, bashed cops, praised Hitler, and called for violence against white people.  [Incomprehensible Twitter-ese omitted for brevity.]  A lot of the posts were taken down but we caught some before they were all gone as did others.

The Politics of Weaponized Car Attacks.  As we learn more about the senseless SUV attack on the crowd attending a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, some liberal media outlets are energetically attempting to spin away from the suspect Darrell Brooks and his left-wing politics on social media.  That's funny.  With Kyle Rittenhouse, they quickly dug into his social media activity.  The Washington Post warned last summer "the 17-year-old shadowed local law enforcement, filling his social media feeds with posts declaring that 'Blue Lives Matter' and photos of himself posing with guns."  For Brooks, the Post lamely mentioned Brooks wrote under the name MathBoi Fly and that "after multiple legal battles," he "started turning the life he lived in the streets into music."

The Media's Chickens Come Home to Roost in Wisconsin.  [Scroll down]  A career criminal and convicted sex offender, Brooks was most recently charged, on November 5, for domestic abuse, including the charge that he "purposefully ran her over with his vehicle while she was walking through a gas station parking lot after he had followed her there after a fight."  Brooks was reportedly released from jail on a $1,000 bond just days before the tragedy in Waukesha.  At Monday's [11/22/2021] press conference, Waukesha Police Chief Daniel Thompson said, "I want to dispel some rumors — there was no pursuit that led up to this incident.  This is not a terrorist event."  The fact that there was no chase seemed to rule out an earlier idea that CNN and others floated that Brooks accidentally wound up in the parade after fleeing an earlier incident.  But no terrorism?  Terrorism is defined as "the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims."  For a DOJ and FBI that have spent a lot of time using that definition to paint soccer moms as terrorists, it might be premature to rule out terrorism.

Waukesha Suspect Called to Attack White People, Had Conviction for Prior Bomb Threat.  What we do know at this point is that the attack was intentional, according to the police, and not only that but that the alleged attacker, Darrell Brooks, was trying to hit as many people as he possibly could and allegedly had previously, earlier in the month, run over the mother of one of his children.  But there's more in his social media and it's not a good picture.  Liberal media would rather attack the journalists mentioning his posts rather than actually report on them, afraid of what they might mean.  But that's dishonest journalism, just like calling the attack an "accident" is dishonest.  You don't have to immediately jump to the motive, but you can and should be reporting on all the evidence.  As we noted, that evidence of his social media does show he was unhappy with the Rittenhouse verdict which came in two days before the Waukesha attack.  It also shows that he had posts related to BLM, George Floyd and Malcolm X, as well as anti-police posts.

Was Darrell Brooks Another Known Wolf?  We have recent familiarity with FBI connections as they pertain to high profile criminal cases; specifically cases with a framework of domestic terrorism.  Against that backdrop, the Daily Mail is now reporting that Darrell Brooks was arrested and convicted in 2007 for a bomb plot against a Nevada casino. [...] We already know Brooks had a lengthy 20-page rap sheet of previous criminal conduct.  However, the question being raised is: would the FBI have Darrell Brooks on their radar after the events in Nevada?  Unfortunately, it would not be a surprise to discover Brooks was a lone wolf and also a "known wolf".  There is a pattern of the FBI having contact — of varying degrees — with domestic terrorism events and the suspects who carry out such attacks.  The fact that Brooks was released from prison just prior to the Wisconsin Christmas parade attack is enough to make the cynical senses tingle.

Media Outlets Lose Interest in Waukesha Christmas Parade Massacre as Death Toll Mounts.  Prominent media outlets have already lost interest in the vehicular massacre that took place on Sunday at the Waukesha Christmas parade, a Washington Free Beacon analysis has determined.  Darrell Edwards Brooks Jr., 39, allegedly plowed his red Ford SUV into a crowd of parade attendees in the small Wisconsin town, injuring dozens and killing six as of Tuesday, when an eight-year-old boy succumbed to his injuries.  Wednesday's [11/24/2021] edition of the Washington Post included a brief mention of the mass-death event in the bottom left-hand corner of the front page.  The New York Times similarly downplayed the significance of the "6th Death in Wisconsin Crash."

A common thread in Waukesha tragedy, Kenosha shootings:  Government failure.  When is a racial hate crime not a racial hate crime?  When it doesn't advance the left's, and the Democrats', narrative.  When white teenager Kyle Rittenhouse shot three white men who were violently assaulting him, it somehow got treated by the press and politicians as a racial hate crime.  President Joe Biden (falsely) called Rittenhouse a white supremacist, and the discussion of his case was so focused on racial issues that many Americans mistakenly thought that the three men Rittenhouse shot were black.  But when a black man, Darrell Brooks, with a long history of posting hateful anti-white rhetoric on social media drove a car into a mostly white Christmas parade, killing six people and injuring dozens, the press was eager to wish the story away.  (The New York Times buried it on page A22.)  Even when a Black Lives Matter activist connected it to the Rittenhouse verdict, observing "it sounds like the revolution has started," the media generally downplayed it.  Were the races reversed, of course, we all know that the press would be turning its coverage up to 11, with deep dives into Darrell Brooks' associations, beliefs, friends and family and more.  But doing that here wouldn't fit the narrative.

Waukesha parade attack:  Washington Post pummeled for tweet saying massacre was 'caused by an SUV'.  The Washington Post went viral Wednesday night over a tweet suggesting the SUV involved in the Waukesha parade attack was responsible for the massacre.  Darrell Brooks was charged with intentional homicide after driving his SUV through a crowded street commemorating the holiday season, resulting in the deaths of six people ages 8 to 81 and injuring dozens more.  However, a tweet from the Post seemed to place the responsibility on Brooks' vehicle than the career criminal himself.  "Here's what we know so far on the sequence of events that led to the Waukesha tragedy caused by [an] SUV," the paper tweeted.

Waukesha massacre suspect Darrell Brooks was convicted for threatening to bomb Nugget Casino in Nevada.  The man accused of murdering five after mowing them down in his car during a Wisconsin holiday parade was previously convicted for threatening to bomb a casino, DailyMail.com can reveal.  Darrell Brooks, 39, was busted in March 2007 for calling in a bomb threat to the $43-per-night Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada.  The would-be rapper was put on probation after being convicted of conspiring to disturb the peace — a gross misdemeanor — and was banned from the Nugget for life.  The circumstances of why he placed the threatening call are unknown.

GoFundMe pulls $5M bail fundraiser for Waukesha SUV 'killer' Darrell Brooks and says it will BAN all future attempts to raise money.  GoFundMe has removed a crowdfunding effort aimed at raising $5million toward bail for Darrell Brooks, the Waukesha, Wisconsin 'killer' who allegedly plowed his red SUV into scores of people during a holiday parade on Sunday, killing six and injured dozens more.  Brooks, who was charged with five counts of homicide, was arraigned in court on Tuesday [11/23/2021].  Waukesha Court Commissioner Kevin M. Costello set bail at $5 million — a move that sparked anger considering Brooks' violent past that includes convictions for felonies.

Liberal media ignores Waukesha Christmas parade horror.  There's a reason that the Waukesha massacre has faded from the national media.  There's a reason that MSNBC and CNN and CBS refer to it as merely a "parade crash" and quickly move on to other news.  There's a reason that President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have not prejudged the violent, racist, BLM-supporting career criminal charged with murder for driving his SUV deliberately into a Christmas parade in the mostly white Wisconsin town of Waukesha on Sunday, killing six innocents, including an 8-year-old boy, and injuring 62 others.  There's a reason the media are incurious about the hate-filled, anti-white social-media posts of suspect Darrell Brooks.  Waukesha is of no interest to these people, not just because the story does not serve their political purposes, as the Kyle Rittenhouse case did when they wanted to paint Donald Trump as a white supremacist.

It was an act of intentional, race-based, black-on-white, vehicular homicide.  It was not accidental.
Waukesha Parade Attack:  Debra Messing Blasts Media For Downplaying Massacre As An 'Accident'.  Actress Debra Messing took aim at the media for "minimizing" the attack that occurred at a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  Darrell Brooks has been charged with intentional homicide after driving his SUV through a crowded street commemorating the holiday season, resulting in the deaths of six people ages 8 to 81 and injuring dozens more.  However, many media outlets had been referring to the attack as a "parade crash," downplaying the intent prosecutors have leveled against the career criminal.

'There should be no bail': Fury at judge for setting $5M bond for Xmas parade 'killer' Darrell Brooks after he was charged with five counts of murder for SUV rampage.  Anger mounted Tuesday after bail for a man accused of killing six and injuring 62 others by plowing his SUV into them at a Christmas parade in Wisconsin was set at $5 million — despite him having already been free on bail from a previous crime at the time of Sunday's carnage.  Darrell Brooks Jr., 39, was free on a $1,000 bail when he careened into the parade crowd in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  On Tuesday — as it was learned a sixth victim, 8-year-old Jackson Sparks, had died of his injuries — bail was once again set for Brooks.  Under Wisconsin law, Brooks must pay 100 percent — the full $5 million — of his bail in order to be freed, rather than a percentage as applicable in some states.  While a bail bondsman could provide the fee, the person requesting the bond would typically have to put a portion of the bail, as well.  Judge Kevin Costello said the sum was 'extraordinarily high' for the 'indigent' Brooks, but critics pointed out that there was nothing to prevent someone from volunteering to pay the $5 million fee or crowdsource the cash.

Darrell Brooks' nephew pleaded for no-contact order after 2020 shooting.  A nephew of the suspect in the deadly Wisconsin Christmas parade rampage pleaded for a judge to slap the ex-con with a no-contact order after he shot at him in a fight over a cellphone in 2020, according to a report.  Anaji Brooks said in a victim impact statement that the incident involving Darrell Brooks in July that year had affected him "more so emotionally than physically," the Daily Mail reported.  "It made me come to the conclusion that this man wasn't family or kin to me," Anaji said in the handwritten note, which was filed in September 2021, according to the news outlet.  "Family shouldn't hurt family the way he did.  It has brought my trust in people to become very low than it already has," added Anaji, who lived in the same house in Milwaukee's Arlington Heights area as his uncle, the report said.

Darrell Brooks shared pro-Hitler memes, called for violence against white people.  The ex-con charged over the deaths of six people at a Wisconsin Christmas parade shared social media posts calling for violence against white people — and suggesting "Hitler was right" for killing Jews.  Darrell Brooks Jr. — who has a decades-long rap sheet — shared a series of disturbing memes and messages on social media, most of which have been deleted since his arrest for Sunday's deadly carnage.  They included numerous posts attacking cops, comparing them to Ku Klux Klan members and calling them "violent street gangs" — as well as calling for violence toward white people, according to screenshots.

Black Lies Matter.  I dare you to look, with a clear and unfiltered lens, at the bloody nightmare we once called the United States of America.  Connect the dots.  Contemplate the utter chaos in every major city while Black Lives Matter militants, academics and bureaucrats prattle on about "systemic racism" and "two-tiered justice."  It's about much more than the horrific mass murders and attempted murders in Waukesha, Wisconsin, where the annual Christmas parade will now forever be stained by the wanton acts of alleged killer Darrell Brooks — a convicted sex offender and domestic abuser who sailed through George Soros-funded Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm's soft-on-black crime revolving door like a Six Flags season pass holder.

New Criminal Complaint Reveals How Truly Evil Waukesha Attack Was.  There was an alleged mass murder attack on the Waukesha Christmas parade just a few days ago and yet we're already seeing a strange description of the event, that is from media still covering it — media calling it a "crash" or an "accident."  [Tweets]  Now, this is not only bad journalism by the media, it's diminishing a massacre.  They know what the police said: it was intentional, as we reported.  Even if the media can't be bothered to follow the detailed facts like actual journalists; again, they should know the basic fact that it was intentional.  Yet, they're phrasing it this way which can only be termed as downplaying it — and that's just despicable.  So what are the facts?  It wasn't just that it was intentional.  According to a new complaint, Darrell Brooks was allegedly driving in a zigzag pattern to hit as many people as possible.

Meet the Progressive DA Behind the Waukesha Bail Catastrophe.  "When we pay too little attention to the underlying causes and characteristics of individuals in the criminal justice system, we make significant errors, which can lead to greater problems," Milwaukee County district attorney John Chisholm wrote in a 2019 paper about criminal justice reform.  That was before Chisholm conceded Monday that he had set an "inappropriately low" bail amount earlier this month when Darrell Edward Brooks Jr., the lead suspect in Sunday's deadly car rampage in Waukesha, Wis., was arrested for domestic abuse and eluding police.  Chisholm has been a leading figure among "progressive prosecutors," leftwing lawmen who favor diversionary programs and community-building to locking up criminal defendants.  His handling of the Brooks case is already sparking blowback to their growing influence over the justice system, much of which has been boosted by financial contributions from the leftwing billionaire George Soros.

Waukesha DA admitted progressive reforms would mean someone would get killed: 'It's guaranteed'.  The district attorney facing criticism after the alleged Waukesha Christmas parade crash killer was freed on bond two days before the carnage previously admitted his progressive reforms "guaranteed" killers could be put back on the street.  Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm, who was elected to the position in 2007, has spent his career supporting cash-bail system reform because he argues it criminalizes poverty.  In an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the year he was elected, Chisholm said:  "Is there going to be an individual I divert, or I put into treatment program, who's going to go out and kill somebody?"  "You bet.  Guaranteed.  It's guaranteed to happen.  It does not invalidate the overall approach."  Chisholm has long pushed to divert nonviolent offenders away from the prison system with alternate programs, and has spoken previously about reducing the number of incarcerations in Milwaukee County.

Brooks CNN fake
CNN Is Lightening The Skin Color Of Waukesha Terrorist Darrell Brooks.  A driver who plowed an SUV into the Waukesha, WI Christmas Parade killing 5 and injuring 40 on Sunday evening has been identified as Darrell Edward, Brooks.  Age 39. [...] However, the mainstream media is trying to cover up for Darrell as they call the attack an accident and they are alleging that he was running away from a knife attack!  We all know that's not true but CNN tried to do the impossible, they even tried to make Brooks look like he has a lighter skin color!  Here's the CNN image which is lighter than any other image on the internet: [Photo]


The Waukesha slaughter and plague of black racism.  [Scroll down]  I will not pull any punches here.  To the eternal shame of the so-called "liberals" who have exploited black suffering past and present for their own financial enrichment and political power, what has become the public face of "blackness" since at least Ferguson is brutal thuggery and irrational hate.  It has been justified and rationalized by the false narrative of "white supremacy" (perfected by the vipers at the SPLC) and exacerbated by constant, cruel agitation by the pot-stirring leftist media and self-serving politicians.  At every turn the Marxist wormtongues have whispered malicious mischaracterizations in black ears of every police shooting (however necessary or justified they may have been), while spinning enticing revenge fantasies (now fact) of consequence-free retaliation, gilded with the potential of exacting "reparations" payoffs as tribute.  The progression of that campaign to foment and escalate race-war from one cluster of violent rioting to the next scored pay-dirt in 2020.  But now it has culminated in perhaps the most horrific race-based hate crime of the modern era in Waukesha, Wisconsin, Sunday.

Darrell Brooks Initial Court Appearance Scheduled for 2 pm CT Tuesday, DOJ-CRS Outlines Waukesha Judiciary Media Rules.  The self-proclaimed black supremacist, who used his vehicle as a weapon to kill five people and injure 40 more, has his first court appearance scheduled for 2:00 pm CT tomorrow [11/23/2021].  Suspect Darrell E. Brooks will have his preliminary hearing under the careful control of the U.S. Dept of Justice Community Relations Service (DOJ-CRS) who oversee all U.S. criminal cases when race is identified as the underlying motive for an attack.  Due to the high visibility of the case; and specifically because the DOJ-CRS are the primary stakeholder in the judicial proceedings; the Community Relations Service has provided a court order instructing the Waukesha judiciary how they must engage/control media access.

Black, Trump Hating Rapper, Darrell E. Brooks Jr.  Arrested After Plowing Over WI Parade.  Horror unfolded at a holiday parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, on Sunday, November 21, when a speeding SUV plowed through barricades and drove into the crowd.  At least 23 people, including children and elderly women, have been struck.  There are reports of multiple people killed, but the exact number was not revealed.  According to Waukesha Police Chief Dan Thompson, the "suspect vehicle" was recovered after what is being called a mass casualty event.  Investigators now have a 'person of interest' in custody who reportedly drove the SUV into the peaceful crowd at Gasper Avenue and Main Street in Waukesha.

Milwaukee DA Launches Investigation into Waukesha Suspect's 'Inappropriately Low' Cash Bond.  In the aftermath of the Waukesha car attack that left multiple locals dead and dozens wounded, Milwaukee County District Attorney John Chisholm has called for an investigation into the "inappropriately low" cash bond offered to alleged perpetrator Darrell Brooks Jr.  After his cash bail was posted for $1,000, Brooks was able to leave prison, where he was incarcerated for other serious offenses, in a matter of days.  On Sunday night [11/21/2021], Brooks allegedly rammed through a crowd watching the Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wis. with his vehicle, killing five and injuring over 40 people, including children and some elderly. [...] Before committing the crime Sunday, Brooks, a black man in his late 30s, already had a long criminal history, including charges of domestic abuse, battery, disorderly conduct, recklessly endangering safety, bail-jumping felony, and resisting or obstructing an officer, according to the Wisconsin courts website.  When he was bailed out, Brooks also faced multiple pending cases in Milwaukee County involving second-degree reckless endangerment and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Not Making Headlines — Waukesha Driver Is A Registered Sex Offender And A BLM Terrorist, Posted Anti-White Social Media Memes.  A driver who plowed an SUV into the Waukesha, WI Christmas Parade killing 5 and injuring 40 on Sunday evening has been identified as Darrell Edward, Brooks.  Age 39.  Heavy.com confirmed that two Milwaukee police squads were outside the home listed to Brooks on N. 19th St. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.  Heavy also obtained audio from the scanner indicating Waukesha police obtained an ID in the name Darrell Brooks Ir. inside the red Ford Escape they recovered in connection with the Waukesha parade investigation.  He also goes by the name Darrell E. Brooks Jr., and Darrell Edward Brooks, Jr.  He is 39 years old.

The Waukesha massacre picture begins to emerge.  We've learned that Darrell Brooks, the man behind the wheel of that car has an endless rap sheet in Milwaukee going back more than 20 years, including such things as drug possession, strangling and suffocating someone, battery, sex offenses, illegal firearm possession (as a convicted felon), resisting arrest, and beating up and then running over the mother of one of his children.  This last offense saw Brooks getting arrested just last week and charged with five counts — one of which was bail jumping.  With his record, one would think that his bail would be high — or maybe, like those January 6 protesters rotting in jail without bail on charges of trespassing and "parading", Brooks would be denied bail entirely.  That, however, is not how Milwaukee's District Attorney, John Chisholm rolls.  The thing about Chisholm is that he's one of those prosecutors who won his elections thanks to substantial help from George Soros.

Waukesha Suspect Darrell Brooks Jr.  Made Rap Songs Ranting About Trump, White Supremacy.  Darrell E. Brooks Jr., the suspect charged with five counts of homicide in Sunday's Waukesha Christmas parade massacre, appears to have posted several politically charged songs online under the name "Mathboi Fly," according to several reports.  Multiple outlets, including the Sun and Heavy, have connected Brooks to Mathboi Fly music videos, matching his appearance to mugshots and other social media photos of the 39-year-old Milwaukee man.  The YouTube channel hosting those videos has now been deleted.  A Soundcloud profile under the same artist's name is still accessible.

Ex-Girlfriend Fled Suspected Waukesha Driver 'With No Shoes And A Black Eye' Moments Before Tragedy:  Report.  A neighbor of the man suspected of killing five people in a vehicular rampage on Sunday says that the man's ex-girlfriend fled his home "with no shoes and a black eye" shortly before the tragedy.  A neighbor, only identified as Ebony, spoke to The Sun at her home in Waukesha, Wisconsin, and said that the suspect and his ex-girlfriend had constant fights at his home.  Often, the disputes would happen outside of the home and the neighbor would step in to break them up and threaten to call the police.  Ebony added that the suspect always "seemed off" and was "talking to himself." Waukesha police said in a press conference on Monday afternoon that the suspect was involved in a "domestic disturbance" prior to allegedly driving his SUV through a Christmas parade.

Waukesha Suspect Was Convicted Sex Offender, Admitted 'Pimping' His 16-Year-Old Girlfriend in Video.  Fox has now caught on to the name of Darrell Brooks the man in custody in Waukesha in connection with the car slamming into people at the Christmas parade, killing 5 and wounding more than 40 people.  Fox confirms our prior reports and notes the other following charges, noting the charges go back to 1999.  Police have now confirmed that Brooks is the lone suspect but have not commented on his motivation.  But, obviously, there's a lot of speculation about that motivation.  We brought you some of Darrell Brooks' social media postings earlier.  But there's more.  Brooks had this comment on the Rittenhouse case on one of his accounts.

Suspect in Waukesha Christmas parade attack charged with intentional homicide.  A Wisconsin man was hit with five counts of first-degree intentional homicide Monday in the deadly vehicular attack on a Christmas parade in Waukesha, police said at a press conference.  An emotional Police Chief Daniel Thompson said cops have ruled out terrorism as a motive for the tragic incident, but confirmed that Darrell Brooks, who had been held as a person of interest in the case, has now been charged.  "The subject was taken into custody a short distance from the scene and we are confident he acted alone," Thompson told reporters.  "There is no evidence that this is a terrorist incident."  He said Brooks was involved in an unrelated "domestic incident" prior to the attack but left the scene before police could respond.

5 Dead, 40 Injured in Waukesha, Thanks to the Left.  A suspect was quickly taken into custody:  Darrell E. Brooks, 39, a serial felon with the proverbial record as long as your arm, including arrests for Resisting or Obstructing an Officer, Recklessly Endangering Safety, Domestic Abuse, Disorderly Conduct, and Battery.  As bad as his record is, however, nothing in it approaches the sheer horror of what he did on Sunday, an act that many are saying was intended to be revenge for the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict.  If that turns out to be true, the responsibility for Darrell Brooks' murderous act must be placed squarely at the feet of the establishment media.  It is not certain that Brooks intended his act as revenge for Rittenhouse's acquittal, although he did post about the verdict on Facebook just after being freed on $1,000 cash bail on November 19.  He was in jail, by the way, for running over a woman with his car. [...] Brooks deliberately drove into the crowd at the Waukesha Christmas parade, likely because he was enraged over the perceived injustice of the Rittenhouse verdict.  How exactly is that not a terrorist event?

Black Lives Matter activist says Waukesha Christmas parade horror that left five dead was linked to Rittenhouse verdict.  A Black Lives Matter activist has claimed the Waukesha Christmas parade attack which killed five people was linked to the acquittal of teenager Kyle Rittenhouse.  Activist Vaun Mayes speculated that the attack which saw suspect Darrell Brooks Jr, 39, drive a car into a crowd of parade goers in Wisconsin on Sunday was the 'start of a revolution'.  Mayes claimed that the horror that unfolded during the Christmas parade was linked to growing anger over the verdict in the Rittenhouse trial, which saw the teenager acquitted on charges stemming from killing two men and wounding another during the unrest that followed the shooting of a Black man by a white police officer.

Mob Attacks Detroit Firefighters at Accident Scene.  Even when I was a kid, there was an element of society that hated the police.  That element has grown exponentially for the reasons mentioned above and, in recent years, has spread its hate to firefighters and EMTs.  Case in point:  Click on Detroit reports that at 3 a.m. Monday, an SUV crashed into the side of a building.  Emergency crews made an extremely timely response.  But by the time responders arrived on the scene, a crowd had formed.  What a crowd is doing out at three in the morning is a whole other story all on its own, but there it was.  Perhaps people heard the noise and converged on the scene to rubberneck.  At any rate, the crowd became angry and began throwing rocks at the firefighters.  One person grabbed a piece of equipment and used it to smash the windshield of an engine.  Responders were unable to reach the two people in the SUV, and the driver died.  There was some speculation that the mob was angry that the responders took too long to arrive.  That seems to be a specious excuse since most people out and about at 3 a.m. are on business of their own, either fair or foul.

Detroit, Affirmative Action, and the end of Black-Rule in The Motor City.  What if you could see a city where the logical conclusion of the consequences of affirmative action play out, where the desire to rectify past inequities in hiring patterns turns into an orgy of trying to add every conceivable Black person in the city onto the public payroll?  What if you could see a city where the founding population was ethnically cleansed after two disastrous race riots (1943 and 1967) and continued high rates of criminality made it impossible to justify living there?  Robert Conot's American Odyssey: A Unique History of America Told Through the Life of a Great City offers a direct window into why white people fled Detroit.

Baltimore's homicide rate moves to No. 1 among big cities.  Baltimore had its lowest homicide total in two decades last year, but data released this week show the city's homicide rate was No. 1 among the nation's largest cities in 2008.  Despite recording its lowest number of killings in 20 years in 2008 — 234, down from 282 in 2007 — there were 37 homicides per 100,000 city residents last year, ahead of Detroit at 34 per 100,000 and Washington, D.C., at about 31.  No other city with a population of more than 500,000 came close...

Report: Nearly Half Of Detroiters Can't Read.  According to a new report, 47 percent of Detroiters are "functionally illiterate."  The alarming new statistics were released by the Detroit Regional Workforce Fund on Wednesday [5/4/2011].

America's Most Dangerous Cities, 2011.  A city where murder is nearly a daily occurance stands a good shot of being named the most violent, crime-prone area in the country.  And last year there were 345 murders reported in the Detroit metropolitan area — altogether 1,111 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

Want to See Pictures From America's Cheapest Zip Code?  The distinction of being the absolute cheapest zip code, well below the median price of $15,000, belongs to a neighborhood located in southern Detroit.  How "cheap" is this neighborhood?  Home prices in the 48208 zip code are about $6,388.

Criminals thrive in cities run by liberals.
Enter Detroit at your own risk! Police issue shocking warning to baseball fans.  Police officers in Detroit greeted football fans attending Saturday night's Tigers game with a shock warning:  'Enter Detroit at Your Own Risk.'  To protest against plans to cut their pay and increase their hours, an estimated 400 off-duty police officers handed out fliers to fans as they entered the Tigers' Comerica Park stadium.

"White flight" happens for a reason.
Detroit's Tragic Decline Is Largely Due To Its Own Race-Based Policies.  In 1960, Detroit's population was 1.6 million.  Blacks were 29 percent, and whites were 70 percent.  Today, Detroit's population has fallen precipitously to 707,000, of which blacks are 84 percent and whites 8 percent.  Much of the city's decline began with the election of Coleman Young, Detroit's first black mayor and mayor for five terms, who engaged in political favoritism to blacks and tax policies against higher income mostly white people.  Young's successors, Dennis Archer and Kwame Kilpatrick, followed his Third World tyrant policies, but neither had his verbal vulgarity.

2012 was Detroit's most violent in nearly 20 years.  As Detroit recorded its highest homicide rate in nearly two decades, city and police officials pledged to try to stem the tide of violence.  Authorities recognized the spiraling problem of gun play and homicide in Detroit during a news conference Thursday — a recognition that comes as the city kicks off the new year with violence.  Already this week, a mother has been charged with fatally stabbing her 8-year-old daughter, and a cab driver was shot to death.

Detroit Facing Surge Of Black Violence.  The Detroit News wants you to know the black mob violence in Detroit over the weekend was limited to under 100 people.  Which is not true.  They also would like you know it was an "isolated" event.  Which is also not true.  And you could "get crazy people anywhere."  So it is not fair to single out Detroit.  Which is so far from the truth you have to wonder if even the people at the Detroit News believe it.  Others are saying this just more of the usual panic — and denial — in Detroit.

Detroit Motorists Under Siege in 'Carjack City'.  The armed auto thieves have become so common here that parts of the bankrupt metropolis are referred to as "Carjack City," and many motorists fear getting out of their vehicles even for a few moments to fill a tank.

With Abortions & Crime At All Time High, Detroit Approaches Third World Status.  Detroit is often heralded by small government proponents as a perfect example of an over-involved government pushing themselves into the culture of a successful city and creating a state of dependence which eventually collapses in on itself.  In other words, a great example of why big government fails.  But this is really only a partial explanation of the issue.  The real issue in America and the problem that is bankrupting cities just as much as the U.S. treasury, is the problem of cronyism.  This, above all other factors, is the legacy of Detroit.

One man gets prison sentence, another gets probation for Detroit motorist beating.  Two of five men who pleaded guilty last month in a mob attack on suburban motorist Steve Utash were sentenced Monday [7/7/2014], one to prison and the other to probation.  Wayne County Circuit Judge James Callahan ordered Wonzey Saffold, 30, to spend 6-10 years in prison.

Detroit cops hunt woman who shot up crowd leaving midnight party cruise.  Police believed the shooting stemmed from a family argument that broke out on the fourth floor of the Detroit Princess cruise ship at around 1 a.m., as it was docking after a midnight cruise party.  The party was sponsored by a local hip hop radio station, according to reports.

DDOT Drivers Refuse To Work: 'They're Scared For Their Lives'.  Henry Gaffney, spokesman for the D-DOT bus drivers union AFL-CIO Local 26, [said] this was not an organized maneuver by the union.  Gaffney said it's a matter of bus drivers fearing for their safety, citing an incident that happened Thursday afternoon [11/3/2011].  "Our drivers are scared, they're scared for their lives.  This has been an ongoing situation about security.  I think yesterday kind of just topped it off, when one of my drivers was beat up by some teenagers down in the middle of Rosa Parks and it took the police almost 30 minutes to get there, in downtown Detroit," said Gaffney.

Teens shot by Detroit utility worker charged with armed robbery.  Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy has charged two teens who were shot by a utility worker with armed robbery.  Niko Brown, 17, and his brother Devontay Brown, 16, are charged in connection with the robbery of two utility workers on Feb. 6.

4 teens charged after allegedly holding Tuskegee airman at gunpoint.  Police arrested the alleged robbers — ages 13, 14, 15 and 16 — the next day.  "They were charged as juveniles with carjacking," said Maria Miller, spokeswoman for Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy.  "As juveniles, the court has the option of retaining jurisdiction on them until they are 21 if they are convicted."  A $75,000 bond was set for the gunman and $50,000 bonds were set for his accomplices.  All four are scheduled to appear in court on March 20.

4 charged after men found dead in burning Detroit home.  Four people have been charged in connection with the deaths of three males found in a Detroit house fire last week.  Tenisha Jackson, 19; Larry Johnson, 20; Rashawn Johnson, 19; and Keeshon Lake, 19, have all been charged with three counts of first-degree murder; three counts felony murder; two counts armed robbery; and one count of arson.  Larry Johnson was also charged for Felony Firearm and Possession of Heroin.

Beating of white driver by angry mob ruled NOT a hate crime by Detroit police.  A 54-year-old white man has been left barely clinging to life after he was brutally beaten by a group of black men when he got out of his car to check on a young black boy he accidentally hit.  Steve Utash, from suburban Roseville, was beaten into a coma Wednesday by an angry mob in a poverty-stricken Detroit neighborhood after David Harris, 10, ran in front of his truck on a busy street, but police insist the incident was not racially motivated.  The gang also stole his wallet before leaving him for dead.

The Editor says...
If the police don't believe the incident was racially motivated, I doubt if anyone shares that opinion, especially since any such statements by the police were made days before any of the beating suspects were arrested.

Detroit mayor tweets for #calm #compassion in wake of attack on pickup driver.  Mayor Mike Duggan in a statement Friday [4/4/2014] decried a "senseless vigilante style attack" on a man who followed the law to check on a boy he hit with his truck, only to be pummeled by strangers in an east-side Detroit neighborhood.

Daughter of motorist beaten by crowd says family is 'waiting for him to wake up'.  As city leaders called for calm on Friday, an African-American pastor plans to create a benevolent fund for the family of the white 54-year-old motorist attacked and robbed by a crowd as a gesture of good faith given the racial tension surrounding the incident.  The Rev. David Alexander Bullock, pastor of Greater St. Matthew's Baptist Church, on Friday called the Wednesday assault on Clinton Township resident Steve Utash "a terrible tragedy," by young boys who most likely perceived him as a hit-and-run driver.

The Editor says...
That is another misleading assertion, in my opinion — that the attackers "most likely perceived him as a hit-and-run driver."  No, they most likely perceived him as a white driver who got out of his car in their neighborhood.

Detroit man brutally beaten after stopping to check on boy he hit with truck.  The 54-year-old man pulled over to help the boy, who was hit after he darted in front of the pickup truck, and was attacked by a group of bystanders.  The child was treated for a broken leg, but the driver remained in critical condition on Thursday.

Justice, Detroit Style.  Let's get one thing straight: the savage mob attack on a white motorist in Detroit by a dozen or more black men on Wednesday was not a "vigilante style" attack.  Yet that's what Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan and City Council President Brenda Jones are trying to call it in a joint statement meant to play down the unavoidable racial element. [...] If you haven't heard about this, 10-year-old Harris, who is black, received minor injuries when he stepped into the street and was struck by Utash's pickup.  Utash, who is white, stopped immediately to check on the boy.  From the beginning, the police have maintained that Utash was not at fault and had done absolutely nothing wrong.  But none of that mattered for at least a dozen or more loitering males, and perhaps as many as 30, all of whom are believed to be black, who attacked Utash, beat him within an inch of his life, and then robbed him.

Lawyer: Teen accused of 'minor role' in driver attack, calls $500K bond 'excessive'.  Two men were arraigned on charges this afternoon in connection with the brutal beating of a motorist who hit a child last week in Detroit, just hours after a teen was arraigned in the same case.  James Deontae Davis, 24, and Wonzey Saffold, 30, both of Detroit were arraigned in 36th District Court on charges of assault with intent to murder and assault with intent to do great bodily harm.  Magistrate Millicent Sherman said Saffold also is a habitual offender.

Hate Crime Charges Possible in Mob Attack.  Four people have now been arrested in the April 2 beating of a Macomb County man who accidentally struck a boy who ran into traffic on Detroit's East Side.  Meanwhile, by early Monday evening, nearly $123,500 had been raised to offset Steve Utash's accumulating medical bills through an online Go Fund Me campaign.  When the family members of the tree trimmer, who has no health insurance, set up the campaign, they hoped to meet a $50,000 [goal.]  Utash, who recently moved to Clinton Township from Roseville, remains in critical condition in a medically induced coma in a Detroit hospital.

$400,000 bond set for teen allegedly in Detroit mob attack on driver who accidentally hit boy.  A 16-year-old Detroit boy charged with assault and ethnic intimidation was ordered Saturday [4/12/2014] to be held on a $400,000 bond in the brutal beating of a suburban motorist.  The serious nature of the mob attack on 54-year-old Steve Utash and the severity of his injuries necessitated a high bond, Circuit Court Referee Raeigen Woods told the teen and his parents during the hearing at a Wayne County juvenile detention center.

Driver beaten by Detroit mob is now talking to his family.  The driver of a pickup truck who was severely beaten by a mob after accidentally hitting a child is now speaking to his family.  Mandi Emerick, daughter of beating victim Steve Utash, said Friday that her father has retained consciousness and is talking, but remains in a confused state, according to the Detroit Free Press.

Uncooperative witness jailed; 4 to stand trial in Utash beating.  A defiant witness left a Detroit courtroom in handcuffs Monday [4/21/2014], after a tense hearing that found sufficient evidence to send three men to trial in the mob beating of 54-year-old Steve Utash near an east-side gas station.

Youths who beat white motorist to within an inch of his life [...] face court.  Four men accused of punching and kicking a motorist who accidentally struck a 10-year-old Detroit boy were ordered Monday to stand trial on attempted murder charges, after a judge reviewed their statements to police and witnesses testified about the chaotic mob attack.

Judge orders trial for 4 charged with beating Detroit motorist.  Four men accused of punching and kicking a motorist who accidentally struck a 10-year-old Detroit boy were ordered Monday to stand trial on attempted murder charges, after a judge reviewed their statements to police and witnesses testified about the chaotic mob attack.  The little boy was treated for a broken leg, but the driver was critically injured and still recovering at a local hospital.

Detroit's Collapse is 100 Percent Because of it's 89 Percent Black Population.  Eighty-nine percent Black Detroit is on the verge of being taken over by the state of Michigan because — well — the Black people of The Motor City can't creat[e] any jobs or wealth, relying on the state to provide EBT cards/Food Stamps, TANF/Welfare, and federal aid/federal grants to keep the city limping along.

Detroit Police search for two suspects as driver recovers following beating after traffic accident.  Nate Szczerbinski says he got into the accident while trying to turn around after going the wrong way down a one way street in Detroit.  Szczerbinski says he was beaten and kicked by three men who hurled racial slurs at him.  "I realized I was in trouble... when they started calling me names and stuff," Szczerbinski told [WXYZ] News.  "I couldn't run.  I couldn't really protect myself.  I would've been just asking for more trouble.  So, I just prayed to God that something would happen."

Man Asks Bus Passengers If They Are Muslims And When They Say No, He Stabs Them.  Incidentally, the Washington Post's headline makes it sound as if a non-Muslim is stabbing Muslims:

        Police: Man stabs two after asking if they are Muslim

People objected to that deliberately-misleading headline, so they've changed it to a slightly different lie:

        Police:  Muslim man stabs two after discussion about religious beliefs

They did not have a "discussion about religious beliefs."  He asked people if they were Muslim and, upon learning they were not, attacked them in accord with the teachings of his religion.

Terror or hate? FBI probes Detroit-area stabbings where Muslim suspect reportedly asked victims' faith.  Detroit police contacted the federal law enforcement agency after Terrence Lavaron Thomas, 39, was charged with two counts of assault with intent to murder after allegedly attacking two men with a 3-inch blade at a bus stop near a shopping mall on Saturday [2/14/2015].  Both victims suffered stab wounds, and were treated and released from a hospital for non-life threatening injuries.  But it was the exchange the suspect allegedly had with his victims, in which he asked if they were Muslim, that has prompted a further investigation.

Michigan Man Stabs Two After Confiming They Were Not Muslim.  A Muslim man in a Detroit suburb Michigan asked two people at a bus stop if they were Muslim.  After they both answered no, some talk ensued, after which he stabbed both of them.  Terrance Lavaton Thomas, 39, who is suspected of the attack, which occurred on Valentine's Day evening, was arrested by police who found him within minutes of the attack walking in the area carrying two knives, one of which was reported to have been used in the attack.  Local reports say that the man did not know the victims previously.  He reportedly made a number of comments about Islam and asked them about their religion just before attacking them.

Police: Man stabs two after asking about religious beliefs.  Both of the victims were standing at the bus stop outside of Detroit with the suspect on Saturday [2/14/2015], Southfield Police Chief Eric Hawkins said. Several people there "engaged in conversation" until the suspect, identified by Hawkins as 39-year-old Terrence Lavaron Thomas, "asked some of the folks there if they were Muslims."  Two of them answered, the chief told The [Washington] Post on Tuesday:  They were not Muslims.  Thomas "was not not happy with that answer," Hawkins said.  Shortly after, "without provocation," Thomas pulled out a 3-inch folding knife "and attacked one of them," Hawkins said.


Black crime in Philadelphia

Now We Know Why That Philly Mass Shooting Story Vanished.  Remember that brutal mass shooting at a Philadelphia bus stop in which eight high school kids were gunned down?  It's understandable if you don't.  Whereas the shooting follows an oh-so-familiar pattern of shoot-'em-ups shredding America's big blue cities, it doesn't fit the preferred narrative.  By that I mean, all of the shooters were black.  [Tweet]  But you likely knew that when the Pravda press didn't release the descriptions of the shooters right away, much like the information the media hid after the Kansas City Chiefs victory parade.  [Tweet]  Police have arrested three suspects and expect a fourth to turn himself in on Wednesday.  Eight teens were shot, but one kid considered the main target, was hit eight times.  Police are investigating the possibility that this was a gang-related retaliation shooting for another bus stop blasting a week earlier.

It's not 'institutional white racism' that is killing and carjacking innocent Philadelphians.  Rampant crime has devastated Philadelphia in recent years.  From murders to carjackings, innocent Philadelphians have fallen prey to the criminal underworld.  After the city experienced a record number of homicides and carjackings, Democratic politicians in the City Council formulated a blueprint in 2023 to deter crime.  While it was created in September 2023, a post on X this week revealed that one of the suggestions in "The Blueprint for a Safer Philadelphia" to save Philadelphians from being victimized by criminals was none other than "combating institutional white racism."  Philadelphia set a record in 2021 for the number of homicides in a year with 562 murders.  From 2021 to 2023, there were 1,486 homicides — the most ever during a three-year period in Philadelphia's over 300-year history.  The city recently set a record for the number of carjackings in a year; Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon (D-PA) was one of the victims.  Retail theft has wreaked havoc in the area, causing many stores to shut down and move out due to the crime.

Video Shows A Man Being Thrown In Front Of A Train In Philly And Killed After Asking For His Lighter Back.  Horrifying video footage shows the moment a man was pushed onto the tracks in front of an oncoming train in Philadelphia on Thursday.  Video footage posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, shows two men engaged in an altercation on a subway platform at 34th and Market street in Philadelphia around 4:30 p.m.  The man who would later get crushed by the train is seen frequently raising his fist to the much smaller man who is pinned up against a pillar.  The smaller man can be heard seemingly demanding an object of some kind from the other, although the audio is not entirely clear.  Police have not confirmed if either man possessed a weapon at the time of the altercation.  [Video clip]

When Shoplifters Kill.  We see a man named Tyron Tunnell, a distraught looking figure who has a history of retail theft and drug-related cases in the Philadelphia area.  Tunnell has entered Macy's with the intention of shoplifting — no big surprise as Center City Macy's, since the beginning of 2023, has experienced over 250 reports of retail theft, something that Acting Police Commissioner John M. Stanford Jr. says is, "An ongoing problem, not just for large chain stores but in terms of businesses throughout the city." [...] Tunnell, who has an active warrant out for his arrest in Delaware County, shoplifts a few hats and then proceeds to leave the store when he is stopped by a security guard, 27-year-old Eric Harrison, who makes him return the hats while permitting him to go free, a gesture that's become all too familiar in big blue cities all across America:  Let the shoplifters go!  Yet Tunnell, not satisfied with his freedom, returns to the store intent on punishing the security guard because he thinks the guard showed him attitude when he made him put the hats back.  He lunges at Harrison and stabs him in the neck, then stabs another security guard who comes to Harrison's aid.

Philadelphia Influencer Who Challenged Police to Arrest Her During Looting Cries as She's Hit with 6 Felonies.  A social media personality who dared police to arrest her as she gleefully incited looting and rioting in Philadelphia on Tuesday was seen crying in her mug shot after being charged with six felonies.  On Wednesday, Dayjia Blackwell — known online as "Meatball" — was charged with burglary, criminal trespass, riot, conspiracy, criminal use of a communication facility and criminal mischief, the New York Post reported.  The influencer was also slapped with two misdemeanor charges of receipt of stolen property and disorderly conduct, according to WTXF-TV.

Democrat-Run Philadelphia Endures Second Night of Mass Looting.  Democrat-run Philadelphia endured a second night of mass looting on Wednesday, and video footage shows the chaos at local businesses.  Law enforcement said over 50 people were arrested after the apparently organized groups hit several areas, breaking into stores and stealing, Fox News reported Thursday.  Video footage shows some in the groups leaving stores while carrying black bags filled with items.  At one point, several individuals step out of a broken window with bottles of what appears to be alcohol in their arms.

Insanity: Mass looting breaks out in Philly after ... er ...  nothing much at all, as it turns out.  Normally, one sees looting after catastrophes, natural or otherwise, as a reaction to chaos and uncertainty.  These days, looting takes place in otherwise normal conditions, because progressive policies running urban law enforcement and prosecution are the catastrophe.  However, even then, looters usually confine themselves to one target (or Target) at a time.  In Philadelphia, scores of looters descended onto an entire shopping district, and more.  CNN reports that the proximate cause was the dismissal of charges against a police officer in a fatal shooting, but not even the city government believes that.

Some Valedictorians Trying To Feed Their Families By Looting An Apple Store In Philly.  More than a dozen people were arrested after a massive group of juvenile looters ransacked businesses across Philadelphia.  The chaos started around 7:30 p.m. after numerous 911 calls stated a large group of juveniles, possibly as many as 100 or so, moving through Center City.  Around 8:18 p.m., a radio call reported looting at the Apple Store on the 1600 block of Walnut Street.  No arrests were made at this time in connection with this incident, police said.  [Video clip]

Looter Films Herself And Mob Rob A Liquor Store In Philly.  Brazen thieves have been caught on video running from Footlocker, Apple and Lululemon with arms full of merchandise as Philadelphia police struggle to grab the looters.  Videos shared on social media shows police officers attempting to grab lotters, some of who are wearing Halloween masks, as they run from a Lululemon store carrying goods.  Numerous bikes and piles of merchandise can be seen piled up on the sidewalk outside the clothing store on Walnut Street in the heart of the city.  [Video clip]

Total Chaos In Philly As Hundreds Of Youths Loot Several Stores.  A massive police presence swarmed a stretch of Walnut Street between 15th and 18th streets around 9 p.m.  Videos posted to X, formerly called Twitter, shows retail stores like Lululemon, the Apple Store and Footlocker ravaged by looters.  FOX 29's Steve Keeley obtained video of the ransacked Apple Store with iPhones and iPads scattered across the display tables.  Keeley reports that Apple many of the stolen Apple products were left behind when the thieves realized the device's anti-theft technology rendered them inactive.  [Video clip]

The [Guys] Who Looted Philly For The Fun Of It Even Hit Up Popeyes.  Imagine trying to loot one of the cheapest fast-food joints in America.  Every chain retailer should close their businesses and leave Philadelphia this week.  Let the thugs loot each other's houses.  Leave them with nothing.  [Video clip]

Woman Guns Down Gang of Home Invaders in Philly.  A gang of burglars paid a heavy price for breaking into an apartment in Philadelphia when a female resident opened fire, sending at least two suspects to the hospital, according to reports.  The harrowing incident unfolded at around 1 a.m. on Sunday in the Germantown neighborhood of the City of Brotherly Love.  A woman arrived at her residence and found four male suspects had forced entry, authorities say.  During an ensuing confrontation, the woman drew a firearm and shot at least two of the suspects.

Cross-dressing gunman behind July 4 Philly bloodbath that left five dead is BLM supporter.  The Philadelphia gunman who left five dead has been unmasked as a cross-dressing Black Lives Matter supporter who made chilling Facebook posts about 'evil spirits.'  Kimbrady Carriker, 40, shot dead four men and a 15-year-old boy in the Kingsessing neighborhood on the eve of the Fourth of July.  He is now in custody and facing multiple murder charges after rampaging through the streets with an AR-15, a handgun and wearing a ballistic vest.

A White Teen Is Jumped By 6 Black Teens And Brutally Beaten For His Sneakers In Penn.  A 15-year-old white kid was beaten up by 6 black dudes between the ages of 14 and 17 while playing basketball on Monday night in Havertown, Pennsylvania.  A bystander filmed the attack while doing nothing to stop it and posted it on social media.  [Video clip]

Youths in Philadelphia Assaulting a Mentally Ill Homeless Man on the Bus.  An absolutely disgusting video uploaded to social media by the thugs themselves shows a homeless man with known mental issues getting assaulted on a SEPTA bus.  One thug is seen punching two homeless men who are sleeping in the side of the head while whooping it up.  [Video clip]

A Group Of Thugs Get On Philly Bus, Brutally Assault Passengers Before Shooting 2 Of Them.  Investigators with the Philadelphia Police Department's Shooting Investigation Group are asking for the public's help to identify a juvenile suspect related to a shooting.  According to officials, the shooting erupted on a SEPTA Route 33 bus on May 17, just before noon.  Police say a large group of juveniles wearing masks boarded the bus at the 20th and Diamond Street stop in North Philadelphia and immediately began attacking passengers.  [Video clip]

Philly Cops Attacked By Quad Rider Punks At Rivers Casino.  The Rivers Casino incident began just after 2 a.m. when a patrolling police officer approached the casino on Delaware Avenue in Fishtown, where several dirt bike riders were parading donuts, police said.  The officer drove his vehicle to where a crowd had blocked entrances and exits to the parking lot.  He began flashing the vehicle's skylights and sounding the horn to disperse the crowd, police said.  Then an "aggressive crowd jumped onto the officer's vehicle and pounded on his windows," according to a police report.  Another police vehicle arrived to assist the first officer.  [Video clip]

16 Year Old Is Stabbed On The Philadelphia Subway.  A 16-year-old boy was stabbed during a fight on board a SEPTA train on the Broad Street Line near SEPTA's Logan Station in Philadelphia on Saturday night.  The incident has led to the arrest of a 46-year-old man, whose identity and charges have not yet been disclosed by the Philadelphia Police.  Cellphone footage obtained by NBC10 captured part of the brawl, which reportedly involved a group of teens.  The victim suffered non-life-threatening injuries to his stomach and leg and was taken to the hospital for treatment.  [Video clip]

3 [men] Rob A Gas Station But Not Before Shooting The Overnight Clerk In The Back, Killing Him.  A store clerk was shot and killed inside a gas station in the Tacony section of Philadelphia.  It happened just after 4 a.m.  Tuesday at the Exxon on the 7100 block of Torresdale Avenue.  The entire incident was caught on surveillance camera.  Police say three masked men entered the gas station's mini-mart and broke into the employee side of the counter.  They attacked the 67-year-old store clerk and shot him once in the back.  [Video clip]

Krasner's Philly: Win your freedom after 25 years on Death Row, get executed on the street.  It continually baffles me why these Democratic bastions go for the most mediocre — sometimes outright malevolent — hands down worst choices every single time.  City residents watch their world dissolve around them, solely through the actions of the very individuals they return to office time and time again, yet nothing but nothing will shake them free of their mindless devotion to their own destruction.  New York City's a terrific example of that mindset.  So is Philadelphia. [...] In January, the city is due to reassess whether their new community-based programs to reduce gun violence have produced results.  That will depend on what their definition of "results" is and how lucrative the community found the grants from the programs.

Philadelphia Hits 500 Homicides For Second Year In A Row.  Philadelphia marked a second year of out-of-control violence, hitting 500 homicides this week as elected officials scramble to address two of the worst years in a long time. [...] While down 7% from 2021, when the city reported 562 killings — the highest on record, Philly's crime wave has caught the attention of state lawmakers, who in November took the unprecedented step of impeaching District Attorney Larry Krasner by a vote of 107-85, over the city's lack of action and alleged misconduct.  Krasner was also accused of obstructing a House committee investigation, according to Fox News.

Philadelphia approves "permanent" 10 pm curfew.  Every time you asked a Democrat or one of their MSM stenographers about the rising crime rates in America's cities during the run-up to the midterm elections, you were told that it was a mirage.  It's not really that bad.  These are just Republican talking points.  New York's Governor even expressed disbelief as to why anyone would even bring it up.  Perhaps someone should point these people to the current situation in the City of Brotherly Love.  (A tragically hilarious name given the current circumstances.)  If things are going so well, why would the City Council vote to make the 10 pm curfew that was in place for almost everyone under the age of 18 all summer permanent?  And yet that's what happened on Thursday [12/1/2022] and one of the Democrats who voted in favor of the measure specifically called out the city's rampant crime rates and the threat crime poses to her own child as the reason.

Shooting outside Pittsburgh funeral injures at least 6.  At least six people were shot after gunfire erupted outside a funeral in the Brighton Heights neighborhood of Pittsburgh Friday, police said.  Pittsburgh Police Commander Richard Ford told reporters one victim was in critical condition and five others were stable after a shooting outside of Destiny of Faith Church at approximately 12:04 p.m.  "At this time, we don't have any information regarding suspects that we are going to release," Ford said at a news conference.

The Media has done everything it can to minimize the economy and crime.  [Scroll down] Crime in Philadelphia is completely out of control.  For example, last year, Philadelphia recorded 562 murders.  That is the highest homicide total since 1960.  That happens to be the year the city started tracking homicide data.  This year in Philadelphia, crimes like robbery with a gun are up 47%.  Now, why is this happening?  It's not an accident.  None of this is an accident.  Crime is rising as a direct result of policies designed to make crime rise and at the same time, any effort by normal people, middle class people, to defend themselves is immediately met with the full ferocity of the state.  This is an attempt, of course, to destroy the American middle class.  Let's just be honest about it.  This is crime with a purpose.  They don't want to have this conversation, the people who did this, and that's why they attack you personally and morally if you bring it up.  In Philadelphia, a lot of these crimes can be traced to one man, Soros-backed D.A. Larry Krasner.  He's decided not to charge many robbers with crimes.  Arrests and charges for retail theft in Philadelphia have dropped by about 70% over the past four years.  In that same period, reports of robberies jumped more than 20%.  You see how this works?  If you stop charging people with certain crimes, they commit more of them.  That seems like an obvious observation and again, it's more evidence this is not an accident.  Larry Krasner is not an idiot.  None of these people are stupid.  They're doing this on purpose.

Philadelphia police attacked by ATV, dirt-bike riders who hurled bricks and bottles at officers.  A group of violent Philadelphia ATV drivers was caught on video attacking police by throwing bricks and bottles at the officers before fleeing the scene, police said.  The group unleashed its assault on police just one day after a Republican city councilman accused the administration of Mayor Jim Kenney, a Democrat, of instructing officers "not to enforce the law."  The Philadelphia Police Department shared video on Tuesday that showed "a large group of people riding dirt bikes and ATVs" around a gas station near Delaware Avenue and Spring Garden Street, police said.

Wawa Closes Two Stores In Philadelphia Due To Crime.  The Mayor Says It's 'Not A Bad Omen At All.'  Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney reacted to the closure of two Wawa convenience stores struggling with crime by denying that the move is a "bad omen."  Wawa, which has locations in multiple states along the East Coast, announced on Thursday that the company would close two locations in Center City, the main business district in Philadelphia and home to City Hall.  Both stores had been contracting private security services due to an increase in thefts. "Despite reducing hours and investing in additional operational measures, continued safety and security challenges and business factors have made it increasingly difficult to remain open in these two locations," Wawa spokeswoman Lori Bruce said in a statement to the Philadelphia Inquirer.  She added that the "difficult decision" occurred after careful deliberation and efforts to overcome "external operating challenges."  Kenney later insisted that the closures are not indicative of a broader decline in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia mayor issues ban on guns at city parks, pools.  Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney signed an executive order Tuesday banning guns and deadly weapons from the city's indoor and outdoor recreation spaces including parks, basketball courts and pools.  The order is the latest attempt by Philadelphia officials to regulate guns inside city limits, something made difficult by Pennsylvania's preemption law that bars municipalities from enacting or enforcing their own stricter gun regulations.  Attorneys for the city said the executive order is the city managing its facilities as a property owner, making it different than previous legislation passed by city council and struck down in court.

Pennsylvania Has a Youth-Crime Crisis.  A group of seven young Philadelphia teens were caught on surveillance camera beating a 73-year-old man named James Lambert Jr. to death with a traffic cone in June.  The footage shows the teens giggling and recording the slow, brutal assault as if it were casual entertainment.  "I just don't know what's going on in our city," Lambert's niece told Fox 29 Philadelphia.  "Where were the parents?"  Pennsylvania, like many states nationwide, is experiencing a youth-crime crisis.  Data from the state's Juvenile Court Judges' Commission suggest that a major factor in crime among youth is family structure.  More than 80 percent of every juvenile court disposition in 2021 involved a young person who lives in a broken home, without two married parents.  Nearly 48 percent live with a single mother, while a mere 15.5 percent live with both parents.  Similar trends hold up year after year after year.

The Editor says...
It's not "youth crime."  It's not "gun crime."  The problem is black crime.  Nearly all the perpetrators are black.  And yes, they're youthful, and they have guns, but they also live their lives without fathers, without any meaningful education, religion, or discipline, and without the prospect of a reasonable income from any legal job.  There's the problem.  Very few overcome this system.  The addictive welfare state subsidizes fatherlessness, and the Democrats perpetuate it.

A 14 Year Old Shoots A 19 Year Old Several Times On Philly Metro Platform.  A 14-year-old boy has turned himself in for his role in the Thursday afternoon shooting of a 19-year-old on a busy Center City subway station platform, Philadelphia police said Friday.  Accompanied by his mother, the boy, whose name was not released, surrendered around 8 a.m. Friday.  He is expected to be charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, illegal gun possession, and related crimes, said Capt. John Walker, head of the department's nonfatal shooting unit.  [Video clip]

Maybe someone could go down there and check the focus on that surveillance camera.  In its current condition, what good is it?


City offering $20K reward for info on group of 'teen offenders' wanted for deadly attack in North Philadelphia.  The City of Philadelphia is offering a $20,000 reward for information on a group of suspects wanted in connection with the beating of an older adult who later died.  According to police, on June 24 at 2:38 a.m. 72-year-old James Lambert was attacked by a group of "teen offenders" on the 2100 block of Cecil B. Moore Avenue.  Surveillance video released by police shows members of the group hitting Lambert in the head with objects, including a traffic cone.  The video also appears to show one of the group members recording the attack on a cellphone.  Police say Lambert was knocked to the ground and was later transported to the hospital where he died from head injuries the next day.

Philly's Dem Mayor Wants Out After Overseeing Record-Setting Crime Surge.  Amid the nationwide crime crisis that has arisen out of woke Democrat policies and the so-called "progressive prosecutor" movement, Philadelphia has been especially hard-hit — and its mayor is apparently tired of leading and looking forward to being out of office after overseeing the city's record-setting crime spike.  On Independence Day, two law enforcement officers were hit with gunfire at Philly's July Fourth festivities from an unknown suspect or suspects — authorities are still trying to identify those responsible and determine their motive.  Thankfully, both officers were discharged after being treated for their wounds.  Video of the chaos that followed shows [what] happens in big cities where there's little if any penalty for breaching laws.  [Tweet]

Another Day Another Mass Shooting In Philly, Killing 2 And Injuring 2 More.  Two people were killed and two more were shot in what Philadelphia Police are calling a massive shoot-out in Point Breeze on Thursday night.  Families, including young children, were outside on the summer night when gunfire erupted on the block around 8:45 p.m. on South Bucknell and Oakford streets.  [Video clip]

As more people get guns and carry permits, Philly sees a sharp rise in homicides ruled justified.  In May, a South Philadelphia man stepped out of his house for a smoke when police said a gun-wielding man rode up on a bicycle and demanded money.  The homeowner dropped his cigarette, pulled out his licensed gun, and fatally shot the would-be robber in the head.  In March, an assistant manager at a Dollar General store in North Philadelphia used his legal gun to shoot a man who police said burst into the store in a ski mask, demanded money, and threatened to kill the cashier.  "I'm opening up the register for you, sir," said the manager, who instead pulled his own handgun and shot the robber in the head, killing him.  The same month, a customer with a carry permit inside Max Food Market in the Yorktown section fatally shot a gunman who tried to rob him while he was playing a video poker machine.  "You have to defend yourself," said Maximo Torres Rodriquez, the store's owner.  "You have to do it."

Black Man Brutally Beats 3 White Woman For No Apparent Reason At All In South Philly.  An investigation is underway after a black man attacked three white women in South Philadelphia in an incident that was captured on video.  The video shows three women walking along the 1200 block of Morris Street around 11:15 p.m. Wednesday as an unidentified man follows them.  The man then attacks the three women and repeatedly punches them as they scream and call for help.  The man then walks away after saying something to the victims.  It's unclear what he says in the video.  All three women appeared to be conscious and were walking after the attack.  Officials have not said if they were hospitalized or how seriously they were injured.  [Video clip]

Man Casually Filling His Gas Tank Gets Brutally Assaulted And Carjacked By 3 Thugs, 2 Of Them Juveniles.  A Philadelphia man and two juveniles are in custody and charged in the violent carjacking of a driver who was attacked while pumping gas at a Warrington station Monday.  The man pumping gas at the Luk Oil on Easton Road was attacked from behind and placed in a chokehold before the suspects flee in his vehicle.  The attack was the second in a a short span of time Monday in Central Bucks.  An attempted carjacking happened at 6:50 p.m. in nearby Doylestown Township, when police say the three suspects tried to steal a car from a motorist pumping gas at the Shell station on South Easton Road, Route 611.  They ordered the victim to turn over the keys, police said.  [Video clip]

Videos capture Chattanooga, Philly shoot-outs this weekend.  Multiple dead, including MSM narrative.  This story and the shooting in Philadelphia won't get the mainstream media attention that "mass shootings" get under other circumstances, and we bet you know why.  The start of the Chattanooga shooting was caught in a video that was shared to Facebook.  [Video clip]  News Channel 9 posted that clip, writing:  In the 11-second clip, you can hear more than 20 shots ring out as the woman dives to safety in her car.  Other people can be seen outside the car running away.  The Facebook account Tabby Tab shared several live updates on her page in the early morning hours that show she was in the vicinity of the bar on McCallie Avenue.  The start of the Philadelphia shooting was posted to Twitter.  [Video clips]  And in Chattanooga, the Mayor made this statement, which will pretty much guarantee CNN and MSNBC ignore the story and drop it from their websites as soon as they can get away with it, probably within hours:  ["]This violence is gang related.  Period.  We cannot fix the problem until we are honest about the problem.["]  Yeah.  If it can't be made out as a case of a guilty gun or a guilty "white supremacist" it goes away.

More Philadelphia Self Defense Shootings in First Quarter 2022, than entire Previous Years.  And in late January, an attempted carjacking suspect was shot six times after a pizza delivery driver, who was licensed to carry, fought back in Kensington.  The Action News Data Journalism team found a significant increase in defensive shootings.  In just the first three months of this year, more people have been shot in defensive shootings than in each of the last three entire years.  If defensive shootings continue at the same rate through the rest of the year, Philadelphia is on track to have more than five times as many of these incidents as last year.

Philadelphia carjackers [have been] shot by legally armed drivers 3 separate times so far in 2022.  A teenage attempted carjacker was shot and critically injured in Philadelphia after he allegedly tried to steal the vehicle of a legally armed driver, according to a local affiliate report.  Thursday marked the third time since the start of 2022 that an alleged carjacker was wounded by a legal gun owner, FOX 29 reported.  According to local media, two attempted carjackers approached the 60-year-old driver around 8 p.m. local time on Cherokee Street in Mount Airy.  [Tweet]  The man had been in the process of exiting his car when the young suspects pointed a firearm at his head and ordered him to hand over the car keys, the report states.  But instead, the driver also brandished a gun and the groups exchanged fire.

Family Is Robbed At Gunpoint Outside The Four Seasons In Philadelphia.  Philadelphia police are continuing to warn the public about the group of armed robbers terrorizing people across Center City.  Video of one brazen attack is circulating on social media.  It happened at 18th and Cuthbert streets, just outside the Comcast Technology Center building.  The five victims were leaving the Four Seasons, according to the video, around 6:45 p.m. on Dec. 7.  Three men dressed in black approach a family and began pulling items out of their pockets, including watches and wallets, before taking off in a silver Honda Accord.  People are seen passing by as the robbery takes place.  [Video clip]

U.S. congresswoman carjacked at gunpoint in Philadelphia park.  Delaware state police have taken into custody five suspects after U.S. Representative Mary Gay Scanlon was robbed of her automobile at gunpoint in a Philadelphia park on Wednesday [12/23/2021].  The suspects were located in Scanlon's vehicle and investigation is underway, the police said, adding that additional details will be released once available.

Philadelphia reaches 500 homicides for 1st time since 1990.  Amid a growing epidemic of gun violence, Philadelphia reached the grim milestone of 500 homicides on Wednesday, tying the record set in 1990 for the sixth-largest city in the country.  A 55-year-old woman was shot three times in the chest in South Philadelphia at about 4:30 p.m. and pronounced dead at a local hospital, police said.  In the wake of the record total, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said the department was committed to "bring justice and closure to each victim and their families."

The Editor says...
All that "justice and closure" stuff means the police commissioner is content to mop up after every homicide, without finding ways to prevent future homicides.  One very effective way to do so is to lock up known murderers permanently and detain homicide suspects without bail.  That's because the number of homicides is far greater than the number of killers.

Racist gang attack on Philadelphia train targeting Asians demonstrates [the] effect of race hustlers on the minds of black youth.  Last week, a video of a violent racist attack on a group of Asian-American students on a public train in Philadelphia was widely circulated on social media.  The perpetrators were four African-American girls, one of whom was wearing a hijab.  It began with four perpetrators hurling racist abuse and intimidating and physically assaulting a group of Asian-American high school students who were sitting in close proximity.  The Asian-American victims helplessly attempted to shield themselves from the violence.  In time, a senior Asian-American girl student attempted to intervene and bring a stop to the assault.  This lead to her being the target of violence and abuse from the four African-American girls.  The Asian-American girl student was struck on her head multiple times and was slammed against the train doors.  The assailant group kicked and punched her as she laid flat on the ground of the train compartment.  One of the assailants even took off her shoe and used it to strike the victim multiple times.

Of course the attack was racially motivated.

Decoding the Heinous Train Rape in Philadelphia.  It was around 9.15 pm on October 13, 2021, in northeast Philadelphia.  Around 11 passengers were on board a SEPTA train, most probably on their way home.  Among the passengers was a woman who had accidentally boarded the wrong train.  According to charging documents obtained by the Philadelphia Inquirer, a homeless man by the name of Fiston Ngoy entered the train a minute later and attempted to strike up a conversation with the woman.  He subsequently moved to the seat next to her.  Ngoy then spent nearly 45 minutes that included 27 stops harassing the woman, groping her, and touching her breast, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by the Philadelphia Inquirer.  The woman struggled to restrain Ngoy.  He eventually ripped her clothes off and raped her.  Thankfully, an off-duty SEPTA employee who boarded the train later witnessed the violence in progress and called 911.  According to the Daily Mail, Ngoy entered the US from the Congo on a student visa in 2012 but remained after his visa was terminated in 2015 and was protected from deportation by the immigration system despite multiple convictions as recent as this May.

The rape of America's borders.  At least 10 bystanders on a Philadelphia train sat and did nothing while a Congolese illegal immigrant named Fiston Ngoy raped a woman last Wednesday night.  An off-duty employee of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority who witnessed the assault eventually called 911.  Police arrived, but not until Ngoy's victim had been violently assaulted for six minutes.  This was not Ngoy's first offense, nor his first arrest for a sexual crime.  He first entered the United States legally in 2012 on a student visa, but it was rescinded in 2015 when he stopped attending school.  In 2017, he was convicted of misdemeanor sexual abuse in Washington, D.C., and sentenced to 120 days in jail.  After this sentence, Ngoy was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which began proceedings to have him deported.  But he told an immigration judge he'd be persecuted if sent back to the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the court granted him protection.  The judge further ruled that Ngoy's sexual abuse conviction was not a "serious crime" that should end his "withholding of removal" status.

Fiston Ngoy
Man accused of raping woman on Philadelphia SEPTA train as passengers 'filmed it' is an illegal Congolese immigrant.  The man accused of raping a stranger on a metro Philadelphia train full of bystanders who cops say stood and filmed is a Congolese national present in the US illegally, according to a new report.  Fiston Ngoy, 35, was arrested and charged in the horrifying attack on Wednesday on board a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) train near the suburb of Upper Darby.  Ngoy entered the US on a student visa in 2012, but remained after the visa was terminated in 2015, and was protected from deportation by the immigration system despite multiple convictions.


The Empire of Lies Breaks Down:  Ugly Truths the Deep State Wants to Keep Hidden.  America is breaking down. [...] [I]n Pennsylvania, a man traveling on a commuter train harassed, assaulted and then raped a woman over the course of 40 minutes and more than two dozen train stops while fellow travelers, watching and filming the attack, did nothing.  Not a single witness called 911.  Not a single bystander intervened to help the woman.  Despite the fact that the man was outnumbered and could have been overwhelmed by those on the train, no collective effort was made to ward off the attack.  Only when it was too late, when the damage had been done and the train had pulled into its last stop, did police show up to intervene.

The Man Accused of Raping a Woman on Philadelphia Commuter Train Is an Illegal Immigrant with a Criminal Record:  Report.  One sex crime didn't result in much more than a slap on the wrist for this illegal immigrant.  And now, Fiston Ngoy, 35, is accused of raping a woman last week on a Philadelphia commuter train — as other passengers did nothing to stop it.  A report from Fox News after an investigation by "Tucker Carlson Tonight" revealed that Ngoy has been in the country illegally since 2015 when the student visa he used to enter the U.S. from the Congo was terminated.

The Editor says...
[#1] My guess is that the rape victim was the only white person on the train.  That's why nobody intervened.  That's why nobody called the police.  Prove me wrong.  [#2] The perpetrator was known to the police and the feds.  Why was he not deported long ago?

Woman Is Raped On Packed Philly Train As Everyone Stood Around And Watched.  A woman was raped by a stranger on a commuter train in suburban Philadelphia in the presence of other riders who a police official said:  "should have done something."  Superintendent Timothy Bernhardt of the Upper Darby Police Department said officers were called to the 69th Street terminal around 10 p.m. Wednesday [10/13/2021] after the assault on the westbound train on the Market-Frankford Line.  [Video clip]

Pennsylvania man, 35, is arrested after 'raping' a woman on a SEPTA train while other riders 'just watched and did nothing'.  A 35-year-old man was arrested for raping a woman on board a public train in northeast Philadelphia as other riders watched and did nothing to help the victim, police said.  Police identified Fiston Ngoy, of Philadelphia, through surveillance footage that caught him sexually assaulting a woman Wednesday night aboard a Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) train towards the town of Upper Darby.  Upper Darby Police Superintendent Timothy Bernhardt said that while there were other people on the train, it was ultimately a SEPTA employee who made the call to 911, which allowed officers to arrest Ngoy on the spot.

Philadelphia as a case study in the wave of shootings nationwide.  Like most major cities around the country, Philly saw a sharp rise in shootings and murders last year which hasn't abated.  But unlike most of those cities, Philly's crime wave is on track to surpass even the very worst years of the early 1990s.  In other words, whatever it is that is happening with regard to violent crime nationwide is happening even more so in Philly. [...] Maybe if the pandemic hadn't already cut off all the support structures and school had returned last fall the rise of crime would have been a momentary blip.  That's possible but I don't think that's what would have happened.  What you see in other places where high profile police shootings have happened (Ferguson, Baltimore, etc.) is a pullback by and from police and a subsequent rise in crime that last for years, not months.  The difference this time is that the phenomenon happened everywhere instead of just locally.

You can bet that if the victim had been black and the perpetrator had been white, the police would have gladly released the suspect's name and photograph.

Update:
Suspect in the shooting death of a man walking his dog in Brewerytown was freed on bail two weeks earlier.  Two weeks before he allegedly killed a man who was out walking his dog in Brewerytown, a suspect in the slaying — who had two previous robbery convictions — was released on dramatically lowered bail in an armed kidnapping and an assault case, court records show.  Police said Sunday [1/17/2021] that they had arrested Davis L. Josephus, 20, in the slaying of 25-year-old Milan Loncar, who was shot Wednesday night while walking his dog about a block from his home.

Davis Josephus
Man arrested for 'shooting dead college graduate as he walked his dog in Philadelphia' is a serial criminal who was released on bail after coronavirus delayed his kidnapping trial EIGHT times.  A man accused of killing a dog walker in Philadelphia was released on bail just two weeks before the slaying, after his kidnapping trial was delayed eight times.  The delays that led a judge to lower Davis L Josephus's bail have been blamed on a combination of delays caused by the coronavirus pandemic and prosecution blunders.  Josephus, 20, was this weekend arrested over the killing of 25-year-old Milan Loncar who was shot on Wednesday night while walking his dog about a block from his Breweryton, Philadelphia home.  Josephus had posted $20,000 bail on December 29 on charges of motor theft and kidnapping, and $12,000 on charges including aggravated assault on a prison guard, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported.


Grim milestone: Philadelphia nears its 500th homicide of 2020.  With a little more than 48 hours to go until 2021, the City of Philadelphia stands at the edge of a deadly distinction.  As of Tuesday evening [12/29/2020], there have been 494 homicides on city streets this year.  That's a number not seen in Philadelphia since 1990.  "We've seen things we haven't seen in almost three decades," says Inspector Derrick Wood, of Southwest Detectives Division.  Out of the six divisions in the city, Southwest detectives has the highest murder rate.

Report: Philadelphia PD ordered officers not to arrest rioters and looters — just disperse them — as [the] city was ransacked.  As looters and rioters ransacked the city of Philadelphia again Tuesday night in response to the deadly police shooting of Walter Wallace Jr., the city police's response was reportedly obstructed by their own deputy commissioner.  WTXF-TV reporter Steve Keeley tweeted Wednesday morning that police officers were "extremely frustrated" after Deputy Police Commissioner Melvin Singleton allegedly ordered both patrol and commanding officers to "not arrest looters just disperse them."  "By the order of CAR-2, Philadelphia Police will respond to 'priority' calls only," the alleged directive from the department obtained by Keeley said.  "This means no calls for disturbance, missing person, stolen vehicle, burglary or theft will be answered."  Keeley added that some officers believe the order "leaves no deterrent to stop looting."

Philly Police Ordered To Not Arrest Looters.  As John pointed out yesterday [10/28/2020], the Mayor of Philadelphia imposed a curfew last night in an attempt to quell the ongoing rioting and looting.  Shockingly, many of the people who were already in the process of breaking any number of laws didn't follow his orders and set out to continue the mayhem. [...] So why would the looters continue emptying the shelves of all the city's stores after they'd been put on notice by the municipal government?  Perhaps it's because they'd heard that the cops had been ordered not to arrest any looters.  Yes, you heard that correctly.  The cops were told to simply "disperse" the looters and not take them into custody.  This comes from one of the local Fox News reporters who heard it directly from multiple police sources.

Looters clean out entire black-owned boutique in less than one minute in Philadelphia during a night of protest over the fatal police shooting of Walter Wallace Jr..  It took under one minute for a swarm of looters to ransack a black-owned boutique in Philadelphia amid demonstrations over the death of Walter Wallace Jr.  At least 200 small businesses were targeted by looters, including La'Vanter Boutique, where owner Jameelah Scurry arrived on Tuesday [10/27/2020] to find it a shell of its former self.  'We are now in danger of losing everything we worked so hard for,' Scurry said Wednesday, adding 'we had everything taken from us in less than a minute.'

'Looters Were Shooting Looters': 11 People Shot In Philadelphia Overnight During Riots.  As riots spread in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania following the police-involved shooting of a knife-wielding suspect, 11 people were shot while looting businesses.  Fox 29 reporter Steve Keeley was filming the scene outside one looted business when Philadelphia police told him "Looters were shooting looters."  Police also told the reporter that a 50-year-old man who had filled up his car with stolen goods was then carjacked and had all the stolen items stolen from him.  In the midst of all this, 11 people were shot.

Philadelphia looting included man stealing a washing machine.  Looters were seen in a series of videos trashing Philadelphia stores Tuesday night — with one even blithely wheeling out a large washing machine.  A heavy police presence with the backing of the National Guard mostly prevented disturbing scenes of violence that marred the City of Brotherly Love on Monday after the fatal shooting of Walter Wallace.  But police said about 1,000 people instead headed to shopping areas to loot and trash stores, leaving wild scenes of complete destruction in their wake.

Philly Walmart looted — stolen TV goes flying off getaway car.  The looter lost one tonight!  They're at Walmart cruising with a big screen TV on the roof and it flies right off the car and crashes to the ground.  This happened at the Walmart down in Port Richmond while it was getting looted tonight.  There are big screen TVs everywhere, many of them in orange boxes.  One of them flies off the roof of someone's getaway car, and I literally couldn't stop laughing.  Another TV, or maybe the same one, gets ran over by someone else.  There is absolute madness and mayhem as people pulled up in the jammed parking lot to run inside and steal.  Then I remember why this is all happening — because the cops did their job and people are being selfless and using a man's passing as an excuse to loot.  [Video clip]

Chaos in Philly:  National Guard Deployed As 1,000 Looters Create Mayhem and Target Businesses.  Mayhem has engulfed Philadelphia.  No, it's not because of Dallas week.  We had another officer-involved shooting that left a man dead after charging police with a knife.  Walter Wallace Jr. was shot and killed on Monday.  He reportedly suffered a mental break [...] This set off another wave of urban violence, rioting, and clashes with police erupting last night.  The National Guard has been deployed, but chaos has already engulfed the city.

Looters Destroy A Black Woman's Boutique After Putting Her Life Savings Into It In Philly.  This was the moment BLM looters destroyed the Lavender Boutique in Philadelphia last night during an evening of chaos and destruction.  The owner of the boutique wrote a heartbreaking note on her gofundme about how her American dream was destroyed in minutes by these thugs:  ["]I quit my job and decided to invest in my dreams and community.  I emptied my savings and checking account.  Maxed out credit cards and sold my house to open my business.  While we were lucky to survive covid and a previous burglary on 8/27 which wet us back significantly, on the morning of 10/27 we were again burglarized and cleaned out.  We are now in danger of losing everything we worked so hard for.["]  [Video clip]

Walter Wallace Jr., who was shot by Philadelphia police, had a criminal history, rapped about shooting cops.  The Black man fatally shot by Philadelphia police officers on Monday was an aspiring rapper who sometimes rhymed about shooting people, including police officers, and was awaiting trial for allegedly threatening to shoot a woman, according to media reports.  Walter Wallace Jr., 27, also rapped about social justice and police injustice on his social media, WPVI-TV reported.  Court records obtained by the news outlet also show Wallace had a criminal history.  In 2017, he pleaded guilty to robbery, assault and possessing an instrument of crime, according to documents obtained by Fox News.  Authorities said he kicked down the door of another woman and put a gun to her head.

Looters in Philadelphia ransack stores, attack reporter during second night of chaos.  Protests turned violent in Philadelphia Tuesday night [10/27/2020] as demonstrators clashed with police, ransacked stores and beat a reporter covering the unrest.  The city has been gripped by violence after police officers shot and killed a 27-year-old Black man a day earlier who they said refused to drop his knife as he "advanced towards" them.  The man was identified as Walter Wallace Jr. and a part of the incident was caught on video.  Police and city officials issued swift statements following the incident and promised an investigation.  But their assurances did little to assuage many in the city who see the shooting as another example of a Black man being killed by police when they say the situation could have been diffused.

Philadelphia police say 1,000 looters [are] targeting businesses on [the] second night of protests.  A second night of unrest in Philadelphia began Tuesday night over the police shooting death of a Black man, just as his children recalled memories of their father in front of reporters and 1,000 looters reportedly began targeting businesses, police said.  Three of Walter Wallace Jr's., sons remembered their father during a news conference surrounded by family and community members.  "We always go places," said one child, whose name was not revealed.  "He always teach [sic] me how to be a man.  And these white racist cops got my own dad.  And Black Lives still matter."  Elsewhere in the city, looters ransacked a Foot Locker, Rite Aid and other retail stores.  At least one vehicle was set on fire.  The Philadelphia Police Department warned people to avoid the Port Richmond area where at least 1,000 looters were ransacking businesses that included a Burlington Coat Factory, Target and Dollar General.

Philadelphia police evade gunfire to rescue victims as bullets fly at large block party.  Philadelphia police officers evaded bullets while attempting to reach injured victims when multiple people wielding guns opened fire at a Saturday night block party that drew up to 300 revelers, authorities said.  At least five people, including three teenagers, were wounded in the shooting that erupted near a playground in the Poplar neighborhood of North Philadelphia around 11:30 p.m., Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw said at a news conference early Sunday morning [8/16/2020].  Outlaw said police officers were nearby on patrol and rushed to the chaotic scene when they heard shots and saw what appeared to be gun-muzzle flashes from multiple weapons.

Philadelphia Police, City Council Organize a "Home Gun-Check Campaign" Urging Residents to Turn in Firearms to 'Combat Gun Violence'.  Philadelphia is seeing an increase in shootings so the far-left City Council and police organized a 'home gun-check campaign' urging residents to turn in their firearms.  Makes sense.  Voluntary gun buyback programs and other programs aimed at urging residents to voluntarily turn in their firearms would only increase violence because it keeps criminals armed and disarms law abiding citizens.  Far left "community groups" with backing from city officials and police are distributing flyers which reads "save a life, turn in a gun."

The guns themselves are not violent, so there is no such thing as "gun violence."

'They're Definitely Cooking The Books' — Philly's Hidden Homicides.  When police responded to a July 1st radio call about a shooting on the 2100 block of North Lambert Street in North Philadelphia, they found Albert Chestnut Jr., a 67-year black male, with two gunshots in the head.  Medics transported Chestnut to Temple University Hospital where he was admitted in critical condition.  He died two days later.  The cops arrested a suspect on gun charges, as well as aggravated assault, in an investigation that was said to be continuing.  But instead of classifying Chestnut's death as an "M" for murder, police marked it "S" for "suspicious."  A veteran commander who looked over the the police report about the death of Chestnut said it was a mistake.  "This is a murder.  It should not be an 'S' job," he said.  "This is absolutely 100 percent a homicide."  "They're definitely cooking the books," agreed one veteran detective.  "At least 50 percent of them [suspicious deaths] are really homicides, and that's being generous."  The murder rate in Philadelphia — already the second-highest in the nation among the ten largest cities — is on a record pace this year with 255 murders as of Aug. 2nd.  That's a 34 percent jump over this point in 2019, when we had only 190 homicides.

Yes, buit the police chief is a black female, and that's all that matters.

Philadelphia shooting: 2 more suspects turn themselves in after 7-year-old boy shot, killed.  Two more suspects are in police custody after a 7-year-old boy was struck and killed during a weekend shootout in Philadelphia.  According to WCAU, 27-year-old Damar Jones surrendered to Philadelphia police Thursday afternoon, one day after Michael Banks, 30, turned himself in.


Massive Ratchet Battle Royal In Philly.  This massive brawl in South Philadelphia was so wild, the cops just stood around and waited for everyone to punch themselves out before moving in.

Overview:  There's a reason they call it Kill-adelphia.
Children of the State.  As of this writing, there have been 298 homicide victims this year here in Philly, a 14% increase since 2016.  That is consistent with the national trend of rising homicides, for which we may thank Obama's opposition to "racist" stop-and-frisk policing.  2015, for example, saw the largest one-year surge in homicides in cities in almost a half century.  There is, on average, a shooting every six hours in the City of Brotherly Love, and were it not for our many fine doctors and nurses, that 298 would be a much higher figure.  Most of the victims are black, as are most of the murderers.  Indeed, at only 13% of the U.S. population, blacks account for almost half of all total homicide victims and more than half of all murderers.  And the vast majority of each are black men under 40.  Imagining our cities without young black men is rather like imagining the West without jihadists:  Both would be a lot safer.  These statistics are, of course, consistent with people's common experience, which could hardly be more politically incorrect.  Like Chicago and Baltimore, Philly is pretty segregated, and everybody knows that the dangerous areas are the black neighborhoods, mostly in North and West Philly.  The business owners there are mostly white and Asian, the same people who pay the most into the welfare state on which blacks, more than any other race, depend.  Like blacks themselves (as long as they are honest), these persons know that in black neighborhoods diligent law enforcement and reliable security measures are as necessary as cocoa butter.

7-year-old Philadelphia boy fighting for life after being shot in head on porch.  A 7-year-old Philadelphia boy is clinging to life after he was shot in the head as he played on his front porch, police and distraught relatives said.  The boy, identified by his mother as Zamar Jones, was struck in the head by one of more than 12 shots that rang out late Saturday [8/1/2020] as he played outside with other children on his West Philadelphia block, police and neighbors told the Philadelphia Inquirer.  A gunman opened fire on a group of people who were standing outside at the time, two of whom fired back, police told the newspaper.

Professional hitman arrested in four Philadelphia fatal shootings: police.  Philadelphia authorities on Friday [6/12/2020] attributed four slayings in 2018 and 2019 to a man they say is a professional hitman.  Prosecutors on Friday said the killings were the work of Steven Williams, 25, who was paid thousands of dollars for the hits, Fox 29 Philadelphia.  Williams was arrested Wednesday at a Pennsylvania prison where he is doing time for other crimes.  A law enforcement source told the Philadelphia Inquirer that Williams belonged to a team of assassins.

Alleged hit man charged in four murders, Philly police say.  A West Oak Lane man who police said was a hit man has been charged with killing four men in a nine-month stretch that ended in May 2019.  Steven Williams, 25, of the 6900 block of Ogontz Avenue, was behind bars for unrelated crimes at SCI Mahanoy in Schuylkill County when detectives brought him back to Philadelphia on Wednesday [6/10/2020] and charged him with the string of slayings, police records show.

Philadelphia's Only Surging Industry.  Last week, Philadelphia's police department reported that criminal activity in the first three months of this year increased by double-digit percentages when compared with the same period in 2019 — the most violent year since 2007.  So far in 2020, property and violent crimes have spiked by 16 percent and 11 percent, respectively, with the largest increases in retail theft — which skyrocketed 59 percent, after district attorney Larry Krasner announced that his office wouldn't prosecute that crime — and other serious violent offenses, such as aggravated assault, up by 20 percent.  Though the Philadelphia Inquirer has tried to downplay the spike in crime, statistics show that, even as the Covid-19 pandemic unfolds, crime has increased overall, despite a slight dip during the city's first full week of shutdowns.

Philadelphia goes lawless.  Officially, this time.  Restaurants are closing.  Toilet paper is flying off the shelves.  Arrests are being put on hold.  Is there an end to the madness the coronavirus has inflicted on our nation?  In Philadelphia, crimes are no longer being treated as crimes as law enforcement has been instructed to stop making arrests.  No, seriously.  A decree has been sent down from ironically named Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw for police to stop arresting people who commit "non-violent" crimes.  They are instead to hold suspects in their cars and issue warrants for future arrest, assuming law enforcement can find them later.  Drug dealers, car thieves, and prostitutes will now be essentially ticketed with an order to appear in court for arrest at a later date, though that is not necessarily described in the warrant they receive.  Instead, they will be found when the Commissioner decrees it is okay to book people at the police station again.

Philadelphia Braces for Looting as Police Suspend Arrests for Non-Violent Crimes.  A controversial suspension of non-violent arrests has Philadelphia businesses on edge and fortifying against potential looters.  Philadelphia Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw announced the suspension of all arrests for certain non-violent crimes Wednesday, according to WTXF-TV. According to documents acquired by law enforcement journalist Rob O'Donnell, the move suspends arrests for narcotics offenses, theft, burglary, stolen vehicles, fraud and prostitution.

Philadelphia's progressive DA has declared war — on cops, law and order.  Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner is a direct threat to the public safety of the City of Brotherly Love.  Philly PD Cpl.  James O'Connor, shot and killed in the line of duty Friday, didn't have to die.  If not for Krasner treating violent and dangerous criminals with kid gloves, O'Connor would be alive today.  O'Connor's alleged killer, Hassan Elliot, should never have been on the streets.  He was cut loose and slapped on the wrist by Krasner's office time and again.  Every time Elliot was arrested for serious felonies, Krasner's indifference and ideology prevented the government from doing its duty to protect the public.  Elliot's 2017 illegal firearms possession case was settled almost immediately for time served when Krasner took office in 2018.  Krasner's predecessor detained Elliot, but Krasner released him the next day.  A year later, he was caught with large amounts of cocaine packaged for distribution.  That was a violation of his supervision requirements.  Krasner released Elliot, scheduling his trial.  That same day (March 1, 2019) Elliot killed someone.

Philly Shooter, Maurice Hill, was Attending a Radical Mosque.  Philly shooter Maurice Hill attended a radical mosque in Philadelphia.  The Salafi mosque, Masjid Ahlil Hadith Wal Athar, is known for the preaching of radical Wahhabist ideology.  The Philadelphia Inquirer interviewed his sister, who told them he "occasionally attended a mosque at 67th Street and Woodland Avenue."  That mosque is the Masjid Ahlil Hadith Wal Athar facility, according to the Clarion Project.  She also said he was "trying to turn his life around."  If that were true, why did he open fire on police, and attend a mosque that preaches radical Islam?

In North Philly standoff, alleged cop shooter Maurice Hill has a long criminal history.  Hill's history in the adult criminal justice system began in 2001 when he was 18 and was arrested with a gun that had an altered serial number.  Public records show that he has been arrested about a dozen times since turning 18, and convicted six times on charges that involved illegal possession of guns, drug dealing, and aggravated assault.  He has been in and out of prison; the longest sentence handed him came in 2010, when a federal judge gave him a 55-month term.  And, his record would indicate, he does not like to go to prison.  In 2008, he was convicted of escaping, fleeing from police, and resisting arrest.  Along the way, he beat criminal charges on everything from kidnapping to attempted murder.

The Editor says...
And that's just his adult criminal record.  His juvenile criminal record is probably just as newsworthy, but all that is kept sealed, so that his chances of gainful employment or higher education are not diminished.  Obviously all that is out the window now, so show us what else he's done, when he was old enough to know better.

Several officers injured by suspect firing in shooting in Philadelphia; suspect in custody:  Police.  A gunman unleashed a hail of bullets at Philadelphia police officers Wednesday afternoon [8/14/2019], wounding six and sending cops diving for cover behind cars, before barricading himself in a building with several hostages.  The suspect finally surrendered at midnight, about seven hours after the shooting began.

Police Aren't Enough.  Philadelphia's Temple University police department is the largest university police force in the United States, with 130 campus police officers, including supervisors and detectives.  In 1957, I attended night school at Temple University.  There was little or no campus police presence.  I am sure that people who attended Johns Hopkins, University of Chicago, and other colleges in or adjacent to black neighborhoods during the '40s, '50s and earlier weren't in an armed camp.  In the nation's largest school districts that serve predominantly black youngsters, school police outnumber, sometimes by large margins, school counseling staffs.  Again, something entirely new.  I attended predominantly black Philadelphia schools from 1942 to 1954.  The only time we saw a policeman in school was during an assembly where we had to listen to a boring lecture on safety.  Today, Philadelphia schools have hired more than 350 police officers.  What has happened to get us to this point?

Woman drags sales manager while stealing car off Philadelphia dealership lot, police say.  Philadelphia police were on the hunt Thursday for a woman they say stole a car off a dealership lot — while dragging a sales manager who was trying to stop the vehicle from being taken away.  The scene unfolded Tuesday at a Toyota dealership in West Philadelphia after the woman got off a public transit bus and asked to view a 2013 Dodge Dart.  Southwest Detectives Lt. John Walker told FOX29 that, after the manager asked for her driver's license, she closed the door and sped off.

Accused Philly Cop Shooter: 'I Did It in the Name of Allah'.  A Philadelphia man accused of shooting a police officer refused to enter a plea in court, saying, "I don't plead to anyone but Allah."  He also told the judge his court-appointed lawyers do not represent him.  Edward Archer, 32, is charged with the attempted murder of Officer Jesse Hartnett, who was shot point blank when Archer approached his police car with a weapon and fired 13 times.

Pennsylvania couple beat 4-year-old to death over spilled cereal, authorities say.  A Pennsylvania mother and her boyfriend were arrested Tuesday night, accused of beating their 4-year-old son to death because he spilled his cereal, authorities said.  Lisa Smith, 19, and her boyfriend Keiff King, 26, of Willow Grove, face charges of attempted murder, aggravated assault and other crimes in connection with the death of their son, Tahjir, FOX 29 reported.

Philadelphia Committee Passes Bill Forcing Store Owners to Remove Bullet-Proof Glass Because it's Offensive.  What's more important, protecting the dignity of customers who shop in local liquor stores, or the innocent employees and store owners who come in every day, knowing that the only thing that ensures they will go home alive, is the bullet-proof glass between them and the criminal element who enters their store?  Well, according to one Philadelphia councilwoman, it's the dignity of the customers.  Philadelphia's Public Health and Human Services Committee passed a bill Monday [12/4/2017] to ban shop owners from protecting themselves with bulletproof plexiglass.

Philadelphia woman, 86, charged in armed bank robbery.  An 86-year-old woman who uses a walker was arrested in Philadelphia on Tuesday [11/21/2017] after pointing a gun at a bank teller and demanding $400, police said.  Sources told Philadelphia's Fox 29 that Emily Coakley had been to the same bank a day earlier, but when she counted her money after returning home she believed she had been shortchanged by $400.

That sounds reasonable, except for the part about pointing a gun at the teller.

Accused Spring Garden killer was on probation after robbery.  A 16-year-old boy accused of fatally shooting a popular neighborhood advocate during a botched carjacking Thursday in the Spring Garden section of the city was free on probation after being found guilty of robbery this year, according to Juvenile Court records and police.  His 21-year-old brother, allegedly with him when Gerard Grandzol was shot, had also been placed on probation, in May, after selling drugs in Center City, the records show.  As a result, Homicide Capt. John Ryan said Monday, police were still trying to determine how Marvin Roberts and his older brother, Maurice, obtained the 9mm handgun that the younger brother allegedly used to shoot Grandzol, 38.  Their criminal records or ages should have prevented either from buying the firearm legally.  "We don't know where it came from," Ryan said, adding that police had not recovered the weapon.

Brothers arrested in murder of Philadelphia dad who was shot in front of his 2-year-old daughter.  Two brothers have been arrested in connection with the cold-blooded murder of a Philadelphia father who was fatally shot twice in the face while his 2-year-old daughter sat in the backseat during a carjacking.  Maurice Roberts, 21, was arrested at a New Jersey motel Saturday night for allegedly attacking 38-year-old Gerard Grandzol when he didn't hand over his car keys to the assailants, police sources told The Philadelphia Inquirer. [...] The brothers had previous criminal records, police said, adding that the older Roberts was arrested about seven times.  They could face murder charges, police said.

Flash Mob of Black Teens Assault Whites.  A flash mob of over 150 blacks teens assaulted numerous people on Friday [10/21/2016] in Philadelphia in an attack that appears to have been racially motivated, and yet the media is silent about this possible motivation.

Philadelphia shooting leaves 2 dead, 5 wounded, including 2 police officers.  A "rambling" note expressing hatred for police was found after a man opened fire on a Philadelphia police officer then went on a shooting spree, injuring a second officer, killing a woman and wounding three other people before he was shot and killed by police in an alley, authorities said Saturday [9/17/2016].

Two police, four civilians wounded in Philadelphia shooting spree.  Two police officers and four civilians were wounded on Friday [9/16/2016] during a shooting spree in Philadelphia where the suspect was later killed by responding officers, police said.  Sergeant Sylvia Young, a 19-year veteran of the department, was shot at least eight times by an approaching gunman as she sat in her vehicle late at night, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross said.

Police Consider 'Knockout Game' A Possibility In Fatal Lawncrest Attack.  Investigators say the seemingly random and unprovoked attack happened Friday evening [8/26/2016] on the 700 block of Adams Avenue in the Lawncrest section of the Northeast.  The victim was 30-year-old Mardoquo Sincal Jochola.  He and his brother have been in the U.S. for eight years and are from Guatemala. [...] Police say it was just one sucker punch to the head that killed Sincal Jochola.  He stumbled, hit the ground and the group, not even waiting a moment, runs away.

President Obama's Potential Felonies.  [Scroll down]  Another type of investigation sabotaged by Obama's Dept. of Justice was the investigation of a Black Panther member who aggressively and willfully intimidated voters at a polling place in Philadelphia in 2008.  The Obama Administration let the Black Panther member off the hook in 2008 but the leader of that Black Panther chapter, King Samir Shabazz, got arrested on gun charges in 2013.  With the Obama Administration's obsession with guns one would expect them to take these charges very seriously.  Previously, King Shabazz had uttered numerous comments that were hate speech when he stated that he wanted his followers to raid nurseries and "kill everything white in sight."  He also recommended that "black people should create militias to exterminate whites, skin them alive, pour acid on them, sick pit bulls on them, bust their heads with rocks...."  Only when he was found in New York City to be carrying an unlicensed gun was any law enforcement action done against him.  So while these actions by the Obama Administration may appear to be purely political they are also violations of Title 18 laws regarding the conduct of Federal officials in the handling of investigations.

Suspect in custody after Pennsylvania police officer shot.  The shooting occurred at around 9:30 a.m. Friday [6/24/2016] after Dorman confronted a group smoking narcotics in the backyard of a property.  When Dorman confronted the suspects, shots rang out, according to witnesses.  Folcroft Police Chief Robert Ruskowski says suspect Donte Island is in custody and being charged with two counts each of attempted murder and aggravated assault.

Television reporter attacked by bystander during live shot.  A reporter was doing a live shot outside Philadelphia City Hall on Wednesday [6/8/2016] when a woman walked up, tried to interrupt her report, then attacked the journalist on camera.  Iris Delgado, a reporter for Spanish-language Telemundo's Philadelphia affiliate, was finishing a report on a municipal soda tax bill when a woman that the Philadelphia Inquirer identified as Waheedah Wilson walked up and tried to get her attention.  Delgado continued with the conclusion to her report, looking straight into the camera, and began to sign off when Wilson struck her in the back of the head and punched her in the face.

Video Shows Woman Being Beaten While Crowd Watches.  It was a disturbing scene Thursday morning [5/19/2016] in 200 block of Ontario Street in the city's Kensington neighborhood.  The man who shot the video of a brutal beating on the sidewalk does not want his face shown but did talk to us.

Philadelphia 15-year-olds murdered married father in failed robbery: cops.  Two 15-year-old Philadelphia boys face murder charges for shooting a man while he walked his dog, firing the final round as he pleaded for his life, authorities said.  The cold-hearted teens and a 14-year-old boy targeted 51-year-old James Stuhlman for a robbery after they tired of playing basketball, police Captain James Clark told reporters.  "At one point, he did plead for his life," Clark said Thursday at a news conference.  "He said, 'Please don't shoot me, please don't shoot me,' and they shot still shot him one more time."

Black mob violence in Philly.  Well when their parents named them such names they pretty much guaranteed their kids would live a life of crime. I used to be a retail manager in Exton and this is exactly the stereotype that would come into my store and steal time and time again and then try to make it about race when I had them arrested.  I have been spit on in the past while trying to stop theft and at one point a black man raised his fist towards my pregnant stomach.  That was the only time I backed off.

Philadelphia: Black Mob Violence.  [Video clip]

Alleged flash mob leader held for trial.  The only adult arrested in the alleged thieving flash mob last month waived a preliminary hearing in district court Monday [7/11/2011] and was ordered held for trial.  Kyree Marsh, 19, of the 5200 block of Spruce Street, Philadelphia, was one of 16 persons arrested after allegedly storming into the Sears store, 150 S. 69th St., and grabbing sneakers, socks, watches and other merchandise and hightailing it out of the door on June 23.

Racial Violence Has Not Made It Into the Conversation about Race.  If mobs of white youths were going about chanting the phrase "white boys," beating mostly on blacks and attacking black-owned businesses, then the nation would pay attention.  Academic, media, political, and legal elites would be calling for symposia, expanded reporting, legislation, and lawsuits.  In fact, a mob of black youths in Philadelphia went about chanting the phrase "black boys," beating mostly on whites, and attacking businesses.

Philadelphia mayor to black youth: 'You have damaged your own race'.  Mayor Michael A. Nutter, telling marauding black youths "you have damaged your own race," imposed a tougher curfew Monday [8/8/2011] in response to the latest "flash mob" — spontaneous groups of teens who attack people at random on the streets of the city's tourist and fashionable shopping districts.

Another Blacks-on-White Philadelphia Beat Down: When is a Hate Crime NOT a Hate Crime?  When it's a bunch of black thugs (girls in this case) beating the shit out of a lone, white girl.  Giggling with glee ("like they were enjoying a ride on a rollercoaster," said their victim) while they brazenly and unmercifully beat her in front of Philadelphia's City Hall.  In the middle of the day (so much for your curfews stemming the increasing tidal wave of feral packs of black thugs acting... well... very black).  Image the outrage if a pack of white teenagers were strolling through town, singling out black kids for random, racially-motivated beatings.

14 Arrested After Large Disturbance Of Teens Gathers In Center City Philadelphia.  As soon as the warm weather hit, a large group of students in Center City caused a ruckus, endangered themselves, police and pedestrians.  The Philadelphia District Attorney's Office has charged 10 juveniles with Conspiracy, Obstructing Highways, Failure to Disperse and Disorderly Conduct.  All 10 defendants are scheduled for a detention hearing Wednesday [4/10/2013] at the Youth Studies Center in Philadelphia.

Crowd Throws Rocks at Officers Helping Dying Man.  When officers arrived they found 39-year-old Theodore Jackson unconscious in the middle of the street suffering from a gunshot wound to the chest.  According to investigators, as officers administered first aid and CPR on the Wilmington resident, a crowd of about 200 people formed around them.  Some in the hostile crowd began to throw rocks, striking several officers, according to police.

New Video Shows Philly Teen Attack.  A new video surfaces of another unprovoked attack in Philadelphia, right outside City Hall, by a group of teen girls on a worker.  A woman attacked in broad daylight in May is now coming forward.  And Fox 29 has obtained chilling video of the attack on her by a group of teenage girls.  The exclusive video shows her walking outside City Hall, before dark at 8 p.m. on a Thursday, when out of nowhere, a group of girls comes up behind her, slams her on the ground, and starts hitting her repeatedly.

Violence persists at troubled Bartram High.  Trouble persists at Bartram High.  A brawl erupted in the school cafeteria this week, with teenagers punching and stomping on one another and on school police.  Students set off firecrackers inside the building.  And the student who last month knocked a staffer unconscious was back in the halls of the Southwest Philadelphia school.  "It's normal for Bartram," said one teacher, insisting on anonymity.  "It's our new normal."

The soft bigotry of low expectations, blackboard jungle edition.  The Obama administration's Department of Education has announced that it will crack down on "civil-rights infractions" in public schools, including alleged disparities in the disciplining of white and black students.  The notion behind this initiative is that black students are disproportionately subjected to discipline they don't deserve.  That doesn't seem to be the case in the Philadelphia public school system, however.  There, as Abigail Thernstrom and Tim Fay report, it appears that African American students frequently harass and attack Asian students without consequence.

Report:  Philadelphia schools unsafe, unjust.  Philadelphia public schools are unsafe places where students who commit violent crimes are rarely punished and rehabilitated and with a disciplinary system that is "dysfunctional and unjust," according to a report by the district's safe-schools advocate.  In a blistering 72-page document obtained by The Inquirer, Jack Stollsteimer describes a district where students who assault teachers or come to school with guns are not removed from classrooms, a violation of federal and state law.

Philadelphia and the Burqa Bandits.  The latest wave of burqa banditry to target Philadelphia began at a branch of More Bank in the East Oak Lane neighborhood two days before Christmas.  Following similar heists on January 6, March 14, March 20, and April 4, the Philadelphia Police Department and FBI issued a wanted flier for a pair of black males in "Muslim-like clothing covering their heads and bodies."

SEPTA: Mom, Grandmom Dodge Fare, Leave Baby Behind.  SEPTA officials say a mother and grandmother left behind a baby girl while trying to avoid paying full subway fare.  Authorities say the incident happened Monday on the Market-Frankford El at the 60th Street station.  The baby's 15-year-old mother had a single one-day convenience pass that allows one person to take eight rides. [...] The two women didn't realize they had left the baby until they got to the 56th Street station around ten minutes later.

The hate that dare not speak its name.  Another week in Philadelphia, another violent episode where people dare not speak its name:  Race Riot.  The latest is Port Richmond, where a mob of black people stormed a house, broke in, and beat up the occupants — all because of something that may or may not have happened to a black teenager on a bike.  One of the attackers pulled a gun.  Luckily the victim disarmed him.  Later that day, another mob returned, this time armed with racial taunts and threats of violence against the white family if they testify in court.  This is just one of dozens of race riots in the Philadelphia over the last two years.

A Beating and Racial Slurs But No Hate-crime Charges.  Ah, the left-wing capacity for rationalization knows no bounds.  While we're told that even substantive criticism of Barack Obama is driven by the hatefulness the left has dubbed "racism," a racial attack by three black teenagers on two white men in Philadelphia this past Monday [1/30/2012] is, somehow, not.

Police charge 5 teens in rape of 12-year-old girl in stairwell of Philly recreation center.  Police in Philadelphia say they have arrested five teenagers accused of raping a 12-year-old girl at a busy recreation center.

Teens Laugh While Recording Violent Beating Of Woman In Chester.  A group of teens violently attacked a mentally challenged woman at random in Chester and recorded the entire incident on tape.  During the vicious attack, which was later posted on Facebook, the teens could be heard screaming obscenities and even laughing.  Police say on Thursday morning [9/27/2012], an anonymous Chester resident alerted police of the taped incident that was apparently posted on Facebook.

Group Of Teens Randomly Attack Man On Kelly Drive.  On the same weekend that two men were beaten by violent mobs of teenagers in Center City spurring a police crackdown, another man now says he was randomly attacked on Kelly Drive.

Philly police release surveillance video of blind man beating.  Philadelphia police released a street-camera video Wednesday [10/9/2013] of a blind man taking a brutal beating in broad daylight.  The blind man, who was in the Germantown area, appeared to be pushed from behind and falls off the curb and into the street.  While on the ground, the blind man takes two punches, and then gets kicked nearly a dozen times by the attacker.  He offered no defense.  Police noted that there were bystanders in the video that did nothing to intervene.

Three "Knockout" Attacks Reported In Philadelphia Area.  "Knockout" attacks have been reported in several states around the country and now investigators believe three people have been attacked in our area.  Police in Lower Merion are investigating two attacks in the area, and Philadelphia detectives are investigating an attack in Northeast Philadelphia.  It's a violent crime that in other parts of the country has proven fatal.

Mayor Nutter Says 'Knockout' Attacks 'Will Not Be Tolerated Here'.  Mayor Michael Nutter was joined by other city leaders Monday evening [11/25/2013] in an attempt to stop the so-called "Knockout Game" from spreading to Philadelphia.  Nutter was joined by Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey, as they discussed the so-called game in which a person is randomly assaulted, while another person films it with their phone or other device.  With cases reported in other U.S. cities, including New York, Mayor Nutter says the city is working to stay ahead of the problem, but needs parents to do their part.

New York chef suffers broken jaw, nose in likely 'knockout game' attack in Philadelphia.  Diego Moya, 30, described his Tuesday night [11/26/2013] attack in online exchanges with The News as his father drove him back to New York to celebrate Thanksgiving at home. [...] Police told him they believe he was attacked by a group of six to eight men, ranging in age from 16 to 21.  He wasn't robbed and nobody's been able to find a motive for the random crime.  That's why police suspect it may have been a "knockout game" assault, Moya said.

The Editor says...
Yep, it's another head-scratcher — such an impenetrable enigma that the police just can't figure out the motive.  A white guy is beaten up by a bunch of blacks and racial animosity doesn't even occur to the detectives.  Or so they say.  In reality, the motive is quite clear to everyone involved, yet it's not politically correct to state it in public.

Suspect in hammer attack outside West Philadelphia deli identified.  Philadelphia police say they have identified the suspect who brutally attacked a local business owner with a hammer.  Nathanial Maybin, 29, from the 800 block of S. 56th Street is wanted for the attack outside Maple Deli at 49th and Lancaster in West Philadelphia.  Police say David Woods, 46, was attacked at that location just before just before 5 p.m. Thursday [2/20/2014]. [...] The Gloucester City man was hit so hard, he can't even speak.  Police said Woods will likely have to go through intensive speech therapy before he can talk again.

Temple Student Attacked With Brick.  A 19-year-old Temple University student suffered serious facial injuries after an attacker hit her with a brick only a block from campus Friday [3/21/2014].  The student was walking with her 20-year-old boyfriend, who also attends Temple, near 16th and Norris streets around 6 p.m. when a group of about 10 teens and young children began taunting them, according to sources.

Female Temple University student, 19, is hit in the face with a brick by gang of children.  A female Temple University student is vowing to return to class despite being unable to chew even the softest of foods after a gang of children smashed her in the face with a brick Friday night [3/21/2014].  The 19-year-old woman, who has declined to be identified, was walking with her boyfriend just off campus when a group of about 10 children began taunting them — they were followed for a block until the vicious assault that left her with dislocated teeth and a fractured jaw.

Temple University student attacked by gang of teens before they beat another with brick.  Five juveniles have been taken into custody in connection to a trio of seemingly random attacks involving young girls and bricks.  The five girls, ages 14, 15 and 17, were arrested early Tuesday afternoon after a Temple University student said she was attacked across the street from a Philadelphia police station on Friday — just minutes before the mob beat another 19-year-old student in the face with a brick.

Cops: 5 in custody for Temple attacks.  It's not clear why a group of high school girls lashed out at Temple University students Friday, but, with five girls in custody, police are hoping to get that answer soon.  Five girls, ranging from 14 to 17 years old, turned themselves in to Central Detectives today, Capt. Frank Banford said.  The girls came forward after seeing news reports about a series of three attacks near Temple's campus Friday night, one of which left a female student bruised and bloodied after being hit with a brick.  "They saw themselves in the video, and knew that sooner or later, they would get caught," Banford said.

The Editor says...
As usual, the police are utterly baffled and completely unable to guess the attackers' motive. It is apparently impossible for them to believe that black hoodlums attack randomly-selected white people just because they're white.

Teens Charged as Adults in Temple Student Attacks.  Three teens, arrested for allegedly beating several Temple University students in random, gang-style attacks, will be charged as adults, the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office announced on Wednesday [3/26/2014].  Najee Bilaal, 16,15-year-old Zaria Estes, and 15-year-old Kanesha Gainey were charged on Wednesday with Aggravated Assault, Conspiracy, Possession of an Instrument of a Crime (PIC), Terroristic Threats, Simple Assault and Recklessly Endangering Another Person (REAP) for three attacks which took place over a 20 minute span last Friday evening, according to the DA's Office.

Staffer knocked unconscious at Bartram High.  A staffer assigned to quell violence at a Philadelphia high school was knocked unconscious in what one union official called the worst assault since a Germantown High School teacher's neck was broken in 2007 by a student.  Alphonso Stevens, known as a conflict-resolution specialist, suffered a fractured skull, concussion, and other injuries.

Climate at Bartram High raises concerns about safety, education.  When Alphonso Stevenson was knocked unconscious by a student at Bartram High recently, staffers were shocked by the assault on the tall, genial man whose job was to keep the school calm.  But many were not surprised.  The school, by many accounts, can be a frightening place, where fights and drug use are common and large groups of students often roam the hallways.  "I had a better chance in Vietnam," said longtime social studies teacher Stephen Pfeiffer, an Army veteran.  "Here, you lock your door and pray no one comes in."

New Black Panthers to protest 'non-blacks'.  The New Black Panther Party — an organization known largely for their intimidation of voters outside a Philadelphia precinct — has announced plans for a "National Day of Action and Unity," — ironically urging followers (on their day of unity) to boycott all "non-black business" on April 23.

Racial bullying roils a Philadelphia high school.  [Scroll down]  Inside is a cauldron of cultural discontent that erupted in violence last month — off-campus and lunchroom attacks on about 50 Asian students, injuring 30, primarily at the hands of blacks.

Group Of Teens Randomly Attack Man On Kelly Drive.  Christopher Dean says he was biking along the drive around 6 p.m. on Sunday evening, July 31.  It was a sunny day and plenty of people were out.  He was between Boathouse Row and the Girard Avenue bridge heading west, he says, when he saw a group of four or five teenage boys standing by the side of the path.  Suddenly, one of them stepped out toward his bicycle and punched him in the face.

The Editor says...
The article makes no mention of the suspects' race, but the incident took place in Philadelphia, and the victim was white, so obviously the thugs were all black.  Prove me wrong.  If the assailants had been white, the reporter would have made that very clear.

Vandals Use Spray Paint To Wreak Havoc In Northeast Philadelphia.  According to investigators, the vandals spray-painted racial epithets, sexual symbols and swastikas on cars, houses and fences.  The spray paint vandalism included the saying "Fu* Crakers" and some on the swastikas were backwards.

Violence Comes to Temple.  Wait just a minute, Temple University. Don't go getting all huffy just because a black guy beat and robbed an 81-year old white professor.  This robbery happened on Tuesday, October 29.  A person whose grainy visage is now known to millions of residents in the Philadelphia area walked past a secure guard station, entered the professor's office, punched him in the face, held a knife to his throat, robbed him, punched him again, then calmly walked away, leaving the professor a bloody mess.  He lived.  By Thursday, police identified their suspect as a convict with a long record of violence and mayhem.

GameStop collecting fingerprints from Philadelphia gamers.  Major video game retailer GameStop is now requiring its Philadelphia customers to provide a fingerprint scan when they try and sell used games.  GameStop stores in the city received a mandate from corporate headquarters after Philadelphia police requested they implement harsher security measures, gaming blog Kotaku reported.  GameStop says it is following a local law that allows them to collect fingerprints, which then go into a database used by law enforcement to help track down people selling stolen goods, a local CBS affiliate reported.

Cell phone footage of a violent attack against a Philadelphia park ranger by a skateboarder 'because he was told he couldn't ride in the park'.  A witness was able to videotape a violent attack against a park ranger by a skateboarder in a Philadelphia park on Friday [8/15/2014].  Police are investigating the violent encounter that occurred in LOVE Park at around 5 p.m.  Mariano Verrico of Essex Fells, New Jersey managed to capture the horrific event 'over a no skateboard rule' on film.

500 witnesses and no one is talking.  About 500 spectators were packed around the Kingsessing Recreation Center's outdoor basketball court Monday night, cheering on an adult league playoff game.  Then, at halftime, a thug in a red and black baseball hat loped across the court and fired a .40-caliber handgun 11 times into the bleachers, wounding six people.  As of Tuesday afternoon [8/23/2011], none of those 500 witnesses were saying much to police.

Teens in Muslim garb try, fail to rob gun shop.  [Joe] Galiano is the owner of Suburban Armory, the gun shop on MacDade Boulevard in Collingdale, Delaware County.  There is a giant gun-shaped sign on the roof.  Inside, Galiano is surrounded by guns, including the .45-caliber pistol on his hip.  Can't miss it.  And the police station is just around the corner from the shop.  Despite these conspicuous crime deterrents, two teenagers nonetheless decided to throw on burqas and pull a silver handgun on Galiano about 1:40 p.m. yesterday in a botched attempt to stick him up, police said.

Dem Rep should have done more research before blaming Dallas shooting on 'white supremacy'.  In a rush to blame all the horrors of the world on dangerous Republican rhetoric, the chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC), Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio), was quick to blame last week's shooting at a Korean hair salon in Dallas on "White supremacy" and that racist white replacement theory.  The only problem with her argument?  The suspect in the shooting is a black man.  Standing outside the Capitol Thursday with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) standing approvingly behind her, Beatty told the press, "On Monday, three people in a Korean-owned hair salon in Dallas were gunned by yet another white supremacy replacement theorist."

Three Korean women shot [by a black man] at Dallas hair salon.  A gunman remains on the loose after storming into a Dallas hair salon Wednesday afternoon [5/11/2022] and shooting three women, reports said.  The shooting happened after 2 p.m. at Hair World Salon, a business located in a shopping center in a district full of Asian-owned businesses, according to WFAA-TV.  An unidentified suspect stopped his dark-colored minivan on a six lane road in front of the plaza, walked into the store and began incoherently shouting before opening fire, KXAS-TV reported.  The shooter fired at least four times and hit the three victims — the salon owner, an employee and a customer — in their limbs before fleeing the scene in the waiting vehicle, police reportedly said.

Another Weekend Night, Another Mass Shooting As 11 Are Shot Outside Rap Concert In Dallas.  A 26-year-old man was fatally shot and at least 11 others were injured Saturday night at a concert in southeast Oak Cliff, Dallas police said.  Officers arrived just 11:30 p.m. at the 5000 block of Cleveland Road, near Bonnie View Road and Interstate 20, after reports of a shooting at a concert.  Officers found Kealon Dejuane Gilmore near the stage with a gunshot wound to his head, police said.  He was pronounced dead at the location, according to police.  [Video clip]

A Whistle Blowing Dallas PD Officer Is Coming Forward Against His Chief as Dallas Falls Deeper Into Crime and Murder.  Veteran Dallas Police Officer Nick Novello has been speaking out against the mismanagement and incompetence displayed by the department's police chief U. Renee Hall for years, and as Dallas approaches unprecedented murder and crime rates, Novello is once again sounding the alarm.  Recently, Hall appeared in the hot seat before the Dallas city council where she was raked over the coals for how horribly the department has managed both itself and crime within the city.  As of now, Dallas is set to hit a decade high in homicide rates with a projected 228 deaths by the end of the year.  Now rumors are swirling that Hall is about to get the boot, and Novello plans to deliver a letter to Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson that may just seal the deal as it details just how bad things are behind the scenes at the Dallas PD.

Convenience Store Looted Downtown After Attack.  Hundreds of people packed into the parking lot of a 7-Eleven at Griffin and San Jacinto as a massive police presence pushed crowds away from the chaotic scene of the attack [on police in Dallas].  News 8's crews stationed near the 7-Eleven saw people taunting officers who were protecting the building.  Many were drunk and some were believed to be stealing from inside the convenience store.  Some poured alcohol on News 8's vehicles in the parking lot, forcing our crews to move.

Video in aftermath of Dallas police slaughter appears to show protesters dancing and 'taunting' officers in a 7-Eleven parking lot.  A video filmed in the aftermath of a deadly attack on police officers in Dallas appears to show protesters dancing in a parking lot.  Five officers died and several more were wounded when gunfire erupted at a Black Lives Matter protest on Thursday night.  Hundreds of people packed into a 7-Eleven parking lot at Griffin and San Jacinto streets as police pushed the crowd away from the chaos of the crime scene, WFAA reports.  A Fox News report showed footage of the parking lot, showing a line of officers standing guard in front of the store and appearing to prevent anyone from entering.

Convenience Store Looted After #DALLAS Attack.  Looters took advantage of the shootings in Dallas as an opportunity to raid a 7-Eleven store.  Will this help to heal race relations in America?  No.

The Editor says...
The Black Lives Matter march in Dallas on Thursday evening [7/7/2016] was touted as a "peaceful" protest, but dozens of the "peaceful" marchers clearly demonstrated that if the police are nowhere in sight, they will eagerly ransack the nearest 7-Eleven store, laughing and cackling the whole time.  I have no doubt that if the Dallas police went on strike for a few days, the entire city would be looted by these allegedly "peaceful" people.  Incidentally, on the morning after this 7-Eleven store was looted, there was no mention of it from the TV station that sits across the street.

Dallas shooter was affiliated with anti-Semitic group.  [Micah X.] Johnson has been variously portrayed as a follower of the Black Lives Matter movement who was pushed to the edge by recent police shootings, a loner who not only was unaffiliated with various black nationalists organizations but was even shunned by them, and a disgruntled veteran who left the military under a cloud of suspicion for sexual harassment.  Reports now say he was linked as well to several black power and other confrontational groups, some of which are labeled as anti-Semitic.  According to local reports, Johnson was a member of the New Black Panther Party's Houston chapter for about six months a few years ago.  He "liked" the group on Facebook and, according to The Daily Beast, he attended multiple NBPP protests and events.

Controversial headline
Image of the Day:  You know what else is racist?  The truth.  A newspaper in Memphis came under fire last week for its coverage of the assassination of five police officers in Dallas.  What specifically had locals in such high dudgeon was the headline emblazoned across the front page.  Protesters who congregated outside the offices of the paper, The Commercial Appeal, were so outraged that a simple correction was deemed sufficient.  Instead, the publication's editor offered up a nearly 1,000-word mea culpa.  So what did the headline say?  This:  [Image]


Still no explanation for Dallas gunman's honorable discharge.  Almost a week after the Dallas sniper attacks, it's still unclear how the gunman obtained an honorable discharge from the military even though Army officials sent him home from Afghanistan with a recommendation that he be thrown out of the armed forces.

Black militia says Dallas shooter 'shall be celebrated one day'.  Micah Xavier Johnson, the lone gunman in Thursday night's ambush on police in downtown Dallas, was an Army veteran who friends described as a nice guy.  But he also was enraged with police shootings of black men around the country, he told negotiators during a tense standoff, and he "had very strong feelings about being black," a former co-worker said.  Authorities are now investigating whether Johnson was directed by the militant groups he "liked" on social media — including the African American Defense League, the Black Riders Liberation Party, the Huey P. Newton Gun Club and the New Black Panther Party — or merely emboldened by them.

First black Miss Alabama calls Dallas cop killer a 'martyr'.  The first black woman to hold the title of Miss Alabama posted a tearful message Sunday calling Dallas cop killer Micah Xavier Johnson a "martyr."  Kalyn Chapman James, who was crowned Miss Alabama before placing as a top-10 semi-finalist in the 1994 Miss America pageant, posted a live video on Facebook that's been viewed more than 7,400 times.

Dallas shooting rifle: a "curio or relic," but still deadly.  The U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives classifies the SKS rifle that some sources believe Micah Johnson used to kill five Dallas police officers on July 7 a "Curio or Relic."  Due to this status, which the SKS shares with many other models of Berettas, Colts, Remingtons, Rugers and other firearms that are at least 50 years old, gun dealers said that in some states and jurisdictions the Soviet-era rifle can be purchased online and delivered to your door without securing a permit.

"Executive Level Gaslighting:"
Obama On Dallas: "it's very hard to untangle the motives of this shooter".  Speaking at a press conference in Poland, President Obama actually said it is "very hard to untangle the motives" of the shooter in Dallas who killed five police officers Thursday evening.  This statement is despite the shooter telling police exactly what his motive entailed.

Hate Group Urges Gangs To Kill Cops After Dallas Shootings.  Groups like the New Black Panther Party are applauding the man who killed five Dallas police officers on Thursday, while another group is calling for more dead cops.

Blame Black Lives Matter Movement for Dallas Carnage.  The Dallas shootings are the logical extension of the demonization of police officers by the racial grievance industry spearheaded by the Black Lives Matter movement, a demonization that began almost as soon as President Obama took office.

Why Is Obama Completely Ignoring The Dallas Shooter's Motive Of Wanting To Kill White People?  America has a race problem.  But it is not the typical race problem you hear about on the six o'clock news or in your social media news feed.  Rather, it involves people like Barack Obama refusing to call deliberate attacks on white people racist.  Despite Dallas police, including the city's commissioner, outlining how the shooter Micah Xavier Johnson said he wanted to kill white people, especially white law enforcement personnel, Obama claims that the assailant's motives are "hard to untangle."

Dallas suspect taunted police during 2 hours of negotiation.  The suspect in the deadly attack on Dallas police taunted authorities during two hours of negotiations, laughing at them, singing and at one point asking how many officers he had shot, the police chief said Sunday [7/10/2016].

The Suspect Said He Wanted to Kill White People.  America's modern race-obsessed progressive media exhibits symptoms of brainwashing that are so severe, they make North Korea look positively libertarian.  To hear them tell it, last Wednesday evening a black man in Minnesota "was shot dead for a broken taillight" a mere day after a black man in Louisiana "was shot dead for selling CDs."  Mais pourquoi?  Because, dummy, of "our nation's carnal desires to spill black blood."  Duh!  What are you — some kind of racist or something?  I often marvel at the magical mystical soothsaying ability of self-proclaimed reporters who were likely hundreds if not thousands of miles from the crime scene yet are able to know not only precisely what happened, but also exactly why it happened.

Dallas suspect said he wanted to kill whites.  An Army veteran killed by Dallas police after the sniper slayings of five officers during a protest march told authorities that he was upset about the police shootings of two black men earlier this week and wanted to exterminate whites, "especially white officers," officials said Friday [7/8/2016].

Top police group wants Justice to investigate Dallas police killings as hate crime.  The Fraternal Order of Police, the country's largest group of sworn law-enforcement officers, is asking the Justice Department to "immediately" investigate the killing of five Dallas police officers as a hate crime.  "The U.S. Department of Justice is always quick to insert itself into local investigations," group President Chuck Canterbury said Friday [7/8/2016].  "Today we expect action just as swift.  We want a federal investigation into those who were motivated by their hatred of police to commit mass murder in Dallas."  Police say the shooter in Thursday's attack, Micah Johnson, a 25-year-old black Army veteran, was angry about two recent incidents in which a police officer fatally shot a black male.

The Editor says...
It is difficult to imagine why such an investigation should be undertaken; for indeed, the perpetrator — hateful or not — is dead.  He is paying the price for his actions at this very moment.

Off-duty Dallas police officer beaten to ground after trying to disperse crowd, police say.  An off-duty Dallas police officer was attacked from behind Thursday night after telling a group to leave a closed pool area at an apartment complex, authorities said.  The assault unfolded around 9 p.m. at the Allure apartments complex in North Dallas, police said Friday in a news release.  The officer, who was in plainclothes, identified himself as a Dallas police officer and tried to disperse the crowd, police said.  As he walked away, police said multiple people attacked him from behind and he fell to the ground.  The officer lost consciousness during the attack, police told WFAA-TV.  When he wokevup, he called 911 and told responding officers that a group of three or four men had struck him in the back and kicked him several times, police said.

Couple robbed by group with a shotgun in terrifying video.  Six juveniles were in custody in Texas following an alleged crime spree that one man said included moments of "sheer terror" as he and his wife were confronted with a shotgun while being robbed outside their home in Dallas.  Garrett and Caroline Scharton were captured on surveillance footage walking their dog early Sunday when the group pulled up in a black Chevrolet Malibu that had been carjacked at gunpoint in Oak Cliff, according to reports.

Suspect in brutal DART attack says he feels remorse for beating.  A suspect arrested for his role in a mob attack on a DART light rail train and station told Fox 4 News Friday that he feels remorse.  Jakobi Hendrix, 21, was arrested Thursday and faces an aggravated assault charge for hitting Kennan Jones with his skateboard.  His brother, Remon Hendrix, was arrested early Friday morning and charged with misdemeanor assault.  Police also are looking for a third Hendrix brother.  On Sunday night [7/30/2017], police said Jones was punched and kicked until he was unconscious.  Both brothers were on their way to work at Whataburger and can be seen in cell phone video wearing their distinctive orange work shirts.

Second arrest made in Deep Ellum DART mob attack.  Dallas police arrested a second suspect early Friday [8/4/2017 for the beating attack on a DART light rail train.  Police said Remon Hendrix was arrested around 1 a.m.  Friday at Target Cityplace across the street from the Whataburger where he and his brother worked.  Police said Remon Hendrix was spotted as he showed up for work.  He is charged with assault causing bodily injury, a misdemeanor.

Brothers arrested in DART train attack.  Two arrests have been made in connection with a violent assault by a group of people on a northbound Green Line DART train over the weekend.  Brothers Jakobi Darion Hendrix, 21, and Remon Hendrix, 23, were taken into custody on Thursday and Friday.  An arrest warrant shows that Jakobi Hendrix will be charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and his bond has been set at $25,000.

Reward Now $1,250 For Information on This Attack.  The video of this attack has been viewed by approximately 10,000,000 people on various platforms.  Obviously there is a lot of attention; unfortunately, no strong leads.

Update:
Brutal Beating Location and Video Uploader Identified — Rowlett, Texas.  Police today reported the actual attack took place on Friday June 19th — but it was not until video surfaced on 6/24 that the youngest victim, 3-years-old, was witnessed suffering injury from the attack — That aspect raises the attack to felony charges.  Fox News Dallas aired a segment on the incident tonight at 9pm — and the local Dallas media affiliate has been made aware of the culprit identification.  Police Detective Cruz Hernandez now has all the details. [...] The police do not consider this attack to contain any racial connotations.

The Editor says...
The Rowlett police very quickly pronounced that the incident was not a hate crime and had no racial connotations, even before the suspect was identified, let alone interviewed.  A bigger pack of lies would be difficult to find (without the internet).  Everybody in the video is black, other than the victims.  All the participants, revelers and cheerleaders are black, as is the photographer.  Why else would the cameras be recording unless a violent Facebook-worthy attack was imminent?

Due Process?  A Drone Was Used To Blow Up A US Citizen Without Trial This Week.  The Dallas shootings have ushered in a very new world for US citizens.  For the very first time, drones have been used on US soil to kill Americans without trial or charges.  The suspected shooter in yesterday's tragic killings, US Army veteran Micah Xavier Johnson, was, according to police and press reports, holed up in a parking garage and would not give himself up.  After hours of what police claimed were fruitless negotiations with Johnson, a weaponized robot was sent to where he was hiding and blown up, taking Johnson with it.

The Dallas Killings Were Inevitable.  Yesterday in Dallas, Texas, Micah Johnson — and perhaps several others — opened fire on police during a Black Lives Matter demonstration.  Five officers were killed and seven were wounded.  Two bystanders were also hit.  Johnson told a police negotiator during a standoff that he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers, because he was angry about police killings of blacks.  Johnson, who was later blown up by a police robot bomb, fought in Afghanistan but "went all Black Panther" when he returned to the United States.  Johnson said he acted alone but a group called the Black Power Political Organization claimed it was behind the police killings and promised "more will be assassinated in the coming days!"  Some blacks in Dallas celebrated with they heard that police had been killed.  These murders were entirely predictable.  They are the logical — even inevitable — result of hatred for the police whipped up by black activists and encouraged by politicians and the media.  These killings will not be the last.

Why Isn't The Media Condemning All the People Supporting the Dallas Shooter?  [Scroll down]  I saw many postings (several with hundreds of "likes" and "retweets") from black people who have been infuriatingly supportive of the man who wanted to kill "white people" and end up assassinating several completely innocent police officers.  I'm not talking about the usual conspiracy nuts who insist that Johnson wasn't really the shooter.  That isn't that unusual in cases like this.  What I saw was flat out praise for Johnson's actions.  Perhaps even worse than that, there were numerous blacks who were being viciously attacked for having the gall the criticize those who would publicly support/justify such a heinous crime against humanity.  To my knowledge (and I have searched hard to find it), not one major "black leader" has had the guts to call out this outrageous reaction. [...] This is a whole new level of insanity and delusion.  This shows that there is a culture, at least within the massive online black community, where, even if it is not nearly the majority view, it is more than acceptable to think is it somehow justifiable to kill whites/police out of revenge for events which we still don't yet even fully understand.

Right One Cue:  Obama Pushes Gun Grab Following Attack On Dallas Police.  He makes no mention of Black Lives Matter, a racist, violent, socialist group he has all but endorsed as President.  He makes no mention of the culture of hate and divisiveness his administration has built for the last eight years.  No, instead, Barack Obama once again uses tragedy born of the racial tensions he himself has created, to go after gun rights in America.

Dallas copycat ambushes of police in 3 states yesterday.  In the last 24 hours, there have been three incidents in three different states involving the deliberate targeting of police officers.  In Misouri and Georgia, the attacks were described as "ambushes."  The attack in Tennessee occured before the Dallas shootings, but the motive, according to police, was the same as the cop-killer's reason for the shootings in Dallas.

Hillary plays the race card on Dallas police massacre.  Hillary Clinton has crafted her response to the slaughter of Dallas policemen to exploit racial resentment and shore up her support among African-Americans.  She needs Obama-levels of turnout and to grab about 92% of the votes in order to win.  She has had trouble whipping up enthusiasm among all demographic slices of the electorate, and she apparently sees black anger at whites as just the thing to motivate voters to turn out, and to quiz their friends, families, and neighbors as to whether they have voted on Election Day.

Police union criticizes Obama shooting response, calls for hate crime investigation.  The nation's largest police union is calling on the Justice Department to investigate the fatal shooting of five police officers in Dallas Thursday night [7/7/2016] as a hate crime — and is criticizing President Obama for his response to the shootings so far.  "We'd like to see the president make one speech that speaks to everybody instead of one speech that speaks to black people as they grieve and one speech that speaks to police officers as they grieve," said Jim Pasco, the executive director of the Fraternal Order of Police, which represents 330,000 officers.

Dallas sniper was sent home from Afghanistan over sexually harassing a female soldier then 'got in touch with bad folks and went all Black Panther'.  The Dallas sniper who targeted police officers during a Black Lives Matter protest was sent home from Afghanistan after being accused of sexually harassing a female soldier — then 'got in touch with bad folks and went all Black Panther,' according to a friend.  Micah Xavier Johnson, 25, who fatally shot five officers and wounded seven more before police killed him with a remote-controlled bomb in early hours of Friday [7/8/2016], was described as a loner who followed black militant groups on social media.  Johnson lived with family members in the blue-collar suburb of Mesquite, Texas, where he played basketball for hours at a time.

Suspect in Dallas Attack Had Interest in Black Power Groups.  The man who the Dallas police say killed five officers in a barrage of bullets on Thursday was a troubled Army reservist who left Afghanistan under a cloud of sexual harassment charges made by a fellow soldier who sought an order of protection against him and said he needed mental health counseling.  Micah Johnson, 25, left the service in 2015, moving back to the Dallas area, where he had grown up.  There, he gravitated toward black power groups, displaying his affinity for them on Facebook.  His profile page, which has since been taken down, paid homage to black pride, featuring images of a raised fist and pictures of the red, black and green Pan-African flag.  Both have been symbols of nonviolent black empowerment for decades, but have also been co-opted by extremist groups with racist views.

Micah Johnson's sister, Nicole Johnson, ranted against police on Facebook a day before her brother killed five officers.  President Obama said that although the country was questioning how to confront the "pain" of this week, it was united, and that Americans of all backgrounds were disgusted by attacks on police.  "Americans of all races and all backgrounds are rightly outraged by the inexcusable attacks by police — that includes protesters, it includes family members who have grave concerns about police conduct.  And they have said this is unacceptable — there's no division there," he said.  President Obama labelled the Dallas sniper "demented", saying he was not representative of all African-Americans.

The Editor says...
Obviously, Obama himself is "not representative of all African-Americans."

Despite racist motives, Obama blames Dallas attacks on gun control.  Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel once said "never let a good crisis go to waste," and President Obama intends to use the racist anti-police attacks in Dallas for expanding gun control.  Despite the fact that one of the shooters, Micah X. Johnson, had racist motives and wanted to kill white police officers because he was angry and cited #BlackLivesMatter as inciting him, the President is claiming it was the lack of gun control that caused the deadly massacre in Dallas.  "When people are armed with powerful weapons, unfortunately it makes attacks like these more deadly and tragic," Obama said at a press conference during a trip to Poland.  "In the days ahead we're going to have to consider those realities."

An Act of Terror Against the Men and Women of Law Enforcement.  We learned on Friday morning [7/8/2016] that one of the suspects "stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," according to Dallas Police Chief David Brown.  He also allegedly told a hostage negotiator that his anger was fueled by the Black Lives Matter movement and the recent shootings of African-American individuals at the hands of police.  What occurred Thursday evening must be distinguished from legitimate acts of protest, but it must also be distinguished from a random act of violence in and of itself.  What occurred Thursday evening was indeed an act of terror perpetrated against the entire law enforcement community.  President Barack Obama rightly condemned the violence in Dallas as "vicious, calculated, and despicable."  But the president offered these words only after having spent the past seven years routinely criticizing the entire law enforcement community and criminal justice system in the wake of various isolated controversies.

Calls for Black Lives Matter to be recognised as 'terrorist organisation' after Dallas shootings.  More than 4,000 people have signed a White House petition urging the US Federal Government to formally recognise the Black Lives Matter (BLM) campaign as a "terrorist organsiation".  The calls come as five police officers were shot dead by snipers during a BLM protest in Dallas on 7 July.  The petition was started one day before the shooting, however, it gained popularity following events in Dallas.  Anyone aged 13 or older can sign a petition on the website and the White House will respond to the request should it gain 100,000 signatures by 5 August.

Dallas gunman was upset about recent shootings, wanted to kill whites:  Police chief.  Dallas Police Chief David O. Brown said that the sniper told police negotiators that he was angry about recent police-involved shootings and the Black Lives Matter movement, although he claimed to be acting alone and not involved with any group.  "The suspect said he was upset at white people.  The suspect stated he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," he said.

Suspect in Dallas police attack wanted to 'kill white people': chief.  A black U.S. military veteran of the Afghan war who said he wanted to "kill white people" opened fire in a sniper attack in which five police officers were slain at a protest decrying police shootings of black men, officials said on Friday.  Seven other police officers and two civilians were wounded in the ambush in downtown Dallas on Thursday night, officials said.  Police killed the gunman, identified by authorities as 25-year-old Micah Johnson, with a bomb-carrying robot after cornering him in a parking lot, ending an hours-long standoff.

Did the false narrative about police killing blacks lead to the Dallas cop killings?  Two tragic police shootings resulting in the deaths of two young black men have set the country on fire.  And the politicians, eager to score points with the minority community, may have unconciously enabled the snipers in Dallas, who killed 5 police officers and wounded 6 others.  Before any evidence was gathered at all, and before any facts involving the police killings were known, several politicians rushed to judgment and declared a racial motive for the tragedies.

Dallas police massacre:  BLM demonstrators got what they called for.  The attack on Dallas police officers, 12 hit and 5 among them now dead, is the latest blow to the fragile bonds of civil society.  The expectation that lawful behavior will predominate and that we can go about our business, once lost, is difficult to recover.  Make no mistake:  a war against civil society is underway, and attacks on police officers are a key tool with which to bring about a situation where the armed and vicious rule the orderly and disarmed.  Lest you forget, #BlackLivesMatter explicitly demanded the assassination of police officers less than a year ago.

Dallas shootings bring number of police killed this year to 56.  Five Dallas law enforcement officers were killed in a sniper attack Thursday night, bringing the death toll of officers killed in the line of duty this year up to 56, according to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund.  The attack, which injured several more officers, occurred during a demonstration held downtown for the black victims of two police shootings this week, which generated national outrage when video of one shooting and the aftermath of the other were shared widely on social media.

Texas Lt. Governor: 'I Blame People on Social Media with Hatred Toward Police'.  Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick said he blames people on social media with hatred toward police during a Fox News Channel interview Friday morning.  The Lt. Governor made a passionate call for viewers to remember these are real people who were killed and wounded during the Black Lives Matter protest in Dallas.  "I do blame people on social media with their hatred toward police," Lt. Governor Patrick said.  "I saw Jessie Jackson on calling police racist without any facts.  I do blame former Black Lives Matter protests. ... We've heard the 'pigs in a blanket' (comments)."

Meet the Leftist Reverend Behind the Dallas Black Lives Matter Protest.  The lead organizer of the Dallas protest where snipers opened fire on police officers has made several disturbing comments on his social media.  A Breitbart News review of Jeff Hood's internet footprint revealed regular posts about the apocalypse, violent retribution to police, and Hood even recently posted about the 2013 death of a self proclaimed "social justice warrior" who committed suicide by lighting himself on fire in front of a shopping mall in Texas.  Video of Hood speaking on camera just after the attack surfaced on social media where Hood talks about "leading the protest."

Dallas police shooting: 'Black Power group' claims responsibility for police killings and warns of more assassinations to come.  A Facebook page claiming to represent a black power group has posted messages claiming responsibility for the deaths of five police officers in Dallas. [...] There were initial reports there could have been up to three or four snipers involved in a co-ordinated attack during a peaceful Black Live Matter protest.  However — while two men and one women have been arrested in connection with the attacks — it's being claimed tonight that police are operating on the theory of a 'lone gunman' being responsible.  This gunman has been named as Micah Xavier Johnson, from Texas, who served with the US Army Reserve for six years and served for a time in Afghanistan.

Police group director:  Obama caused a 'war on cops'.  The head of a law enforcement advocacy group lashed out at President Barack Obama in the wake of the Dallas shootings that left five police officers dead, accused the president of carrying out a "war on cops."  "I think [the Obama administration] continued appeasements at the federal level with the Department of Justice, their appeasement of violent criminals, their refusal to condemn movements like Black Lives Matter, actively calling for the death of police officers, that type of thing, all the while blaming police for the problems in this country has led directly to the climate that has made Dallas possible," William Johnson, the executive director of the National Association of Police Organizations, said in an interview with Fox on Friday morning [7/8/2016].  Johnson said although the Thursday night shooting of law enforcement officers reminded him of "the violence in the streets in the 60's and 70's," he pointed out how Obama's response appeared different than his predecessors.

Who is Dr. Jeff Hood?  From his home page:  "The Rev. Dr. Jeff Hood is a Baptist pastor, theologian and activist living and working in Texas.  A graduate of Auburn University, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Emory University's Candler School of Theology, University of Alabama and Creighton University, Dr. Hood also concluded a Doctorate of Ministry in Queer Theology at Brite Divinity School at Texas Christian University.  Dr. Hood was ordained at a church within the Southern Baptist Convention in 2006 and received standing in the United Church of Christ in 2015. [...] In 2015, Hood was named Hope for Peace and Justice's Ambassador of Justice for his theological activism and also the Next Generation Action Network's Person of the Year for his work against police brutality.  In addition to being the husband of Emily and father of Jeff III, Phillip, Quinley Mandela, Lucas & Madeleine, Dr. Hood also maintains a close friendship with Texas Death Row prisoner Will Speer.  With deep soul and a belief that God is "calling us to something queerer," Dr.  Hood is a radical mystic and prophetic voice to a closed society."

Micah Xavier Johnson: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know.  An Army veteran "upset about Black Lives Matter" and "recent police shootings" who opened fire Thursday night in Dallas in an attack on police officers has been identified by police as Micah Xavier Johnson.  Five police officers were killed and seven were wounded, officials said.  Two civilians were also wounded in the shootings, police said.  Johnson, 25, was killed when a police robot detonated a bomb near him following a standoff that lasted several hours, Police Chief David Brown said Friday at a press conference.  "The suspect said he was upset with white people and wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," Brown said.

Who Is the Dallas Shooter Micah Xavier Johnson?  Officials identified Micah Xavier Johnson, 25, from Mesquite, Tx., as the suspect in the murders of five Dallas law enforcement officers and injuries of seven others.  He is being described as a recluse who lived with his mother and had no prior criminal record, CNN reports.

Man accused of stabbing random Dallas shopper.  A Dallas man remains in jail after police say he randomly stabbed a shopper inside a Target store.  Police say Antowann Davis, 30, walked into the Target on Marsh Lane around 9:15 p.m. Thursday [5/17/2012] and took a butcher knife out of its packaging in the kitchen department.  Martha Jones, 29, said she was browsing inside the store when Davis walked past her and shoved the knife into her lower back.

Chance encounter with CHL holder saves Frisco woman from robber.  There is constant sound and motion at DART's Convention Center Station, and it's one of Kim Lanphere's regular stops.  "I use DART 30-to-40 times a week," she said.  "At most stations, I feel relatively safe, because there's light and people."  But as of Saturday, her feeling of safety is gone.  Dallas police say she passed 23-year-old Jamail Koroma on a sidewalk near the station.  "I felt him change his gait, and at the time I had by bag here," she said, motioning by her side, "and I put it on my shoulder, just to hold it safe."

It's open season on prostitutes.
Rape victim not a 'victim,' judge says, giving rapist probation.  A Texas judge has sentenced a confessed rapist to just five years' probation, implying his 14-year-old victim was promiscuous and "wasn't the victim she claimed to be."  Sir Young, 20, pleaded guilty to raping the girl at Booker T. Washington High School in Dallas when he was 18, even as she told him "no" and "stop," according to the Dallas Morning News.  But State District Judge Jeanine Howard stunned many when she opted for probation, which will include 45 days in jail, and also exempted him from standard sex-offender restrictions, [...]

If you get all your information from the television stations in Dallas, you probably haven't heard this news, because the local TV stations generally do not report suicides.

Fast Food Worker Says She Was Attacked Over Milkshake.  Dallas police detectives want to identify a fast food customer they say went on a threatening rampage because he was dissatisfied with a milkshake order.  Surveillance video from the Burger King at 11800 block of N. Central Expressway from June 13 shows the man at the counter.  The video has no audio.  But the recording shows him throwing a drink at someone outside the scope of the camera.  The man then grabs a highchair from the seating section and flings it across the counter.

Gunman Was Gregarious Until Army Career Ended in Disgrace.  He was disarmed in the middle of a war zone and placed under 24-hour escort.  The most humiliating part was that everyone in Micah Johnson's unit in Afghanistan knew why:  He was accused of stealing a female soldier's panties.  Johnson's aspirations to a military career were over.  Now he faced removal from the Army.  The well-liked, easygoing young black man whose friendships were described as colorblind was suddenly deeply shamed and ostracized.  People who knew him, both before and after, say he was never the same.

CBS Issues Correction, Jumped the Gun on AP Bullets Used in Dallas Ambush.  CBS's Scott Pelley had to issue a correction Friday July 15 on CBS Evening News for an overzealous segment on the Dallas ambush he aired on Monday July 11.  In the original report Pelley claimed that so-called armored piercing bullets were used to kill the police, that claim turned out to be false.  "Early in the investigation, a city official told us the ammunition the killer used was armor-piercing," he stated, "Well, now we've learned that the bullets were not the armor-piercing type."

Black Liberal Establishment's Misinformation Campaign On Dallas Assassination.  The horrific assassination of five police officers in Dallas, Texas exposed how the black liberal establishment echo chamber operates to manipulate the views of black Americans.  Following the shooting, elected officials, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, black media, and community activists shifted blame from the attack from a black racist to gun control, the NRA and police brutality.  The unified message misinforms the black community about the real causes of problems facing urban areas.

White St. Jude Research Doctor Murdered In 64% Black Memphis By Two Blacks.  I have a good friend whose daughter was saved by doctors at St. Jude in Memphis.  When I read this story of what happened to a white research doctor at St. Jude at the hands of two blacks, I immediately thought of her and all the children individuals affiliated with the hospital have saved.  Worse yet, Alexander Bulakhov died defending his wife and young daughter from two black criminals in what is regarded as America's largest black city.

St. Jude research doctor died while defending family from robbers, court records show.  A St.  Jude Research Doctor was shot and killed while protecting his family from would-be robbers in Downtown Memphis, according to court records.  Those records show that 32-year-old Alexander Bulakhov was with his wife and daughter when he was robbed by a gunman on Sunday, November 12.  "We came out on the balcony, it was like 7:50.  We heard 'pow,' and then a woman screamed," Jacob McLemore, who watched the incident play out from his apartment balcony, said.  "There were like 10 or 15 cars, ambulance, unmarked cars.  They carried the guy on a stretcher out here, put him on an ambulance."

Straight Talk on the Latest Riots.  Riots broke out in Memphis and are rapidly spreading through the usual urban areas.  The purported rationale is the horrific beating to death in Memphis of Tyre Nichols captured on video and released by the police.  As Glenn Reynolds (Instapundit) observes, Nichols' beating was administered by "Black officers in a majority Black city with a Black police chief."  The officers involved have been criminally charged, but the media to which every Black killed by a cop is just proof that we are still in the Selma, Alabama world of decades ago — another case of some innocent Black person victimized by racist oppressors.  The odious Joy Reid at MSNBC highlighted a guest who blames Nichols' death on "white supremacy" and CNN's Van Jones opined "The police who killed Tyre Nichols were Black.  But they still may have been driven by racism."

CNN's Race-Baiter Van Jones Blames Racism for Black Cops Beating Tyre Nichols to Death.  On the night of January 7th, 2022, in the city of Memphis, five Black men wearing badges and sidearms, who swore an oath to serve and protect, did none of those things.  Instead, those now-fired police officers beat Tyre Nichols so badly that he died, from their multiple kicks and punches, in the hospital days later.  Tyre Nichols was also a Black man.  The difference was, the only criminals on the street that fateful night were wearing badges.  One need only watch the video once, to see that what those men did to Nichols was utterly unjustified and criminal.

Tyre Nichols Was Killed By Black Police Officers — CNN Declares It Was Still Due to Racism.  The story of a black man in Memphis who died at the hands of officers following a traffic stop had all the makings of the next racial strife to rise up in this country.  The press has been all over the incident, and the police force has been routinely indicted.  One detail has been very lightly covered, however.  The five officers involved in the incident are all black themselves.  This bit of inconvenience for the media and the activists has been a stumbling block, but at CNN, Van Jones arrives with the solution to their problems: Despite POC police involvement, it is still a case of white racism.  "Huh?!?!" you may respond.  Allow him to explain. [...]

A Tiny Number of Shoplifters Commit Thousands of New York City Thefts.  New York City's storefront businesses, already weathering inflation and an uneven recovery from the coronavirus pandemic, are also contending with what the police say is a dramatic increase in shoplifting.  But statistics also reveal a startling reality: A relative handful of shoplifters are responsible for an outsize percentage of retail crime.  Nearly a third of all shoplifting arrests in New York City last year involved just 327 people, the police said.  Collectively, they were arrested and rearrested more than 6,000 times, Police Commissioner Keechant Sewell said.  Some engage in shoplifting as a trade, while others are driven by addiction or mental illness; the police did not identify the 327 people in the analysis.

Man punches 72-year-old Asian woman on NYC street in possible hate crime.  A deranged man walked up to a 72-year-old Asian woman and slugged her in the face on a Manhattan street Wednesday in what cops are investigating as a potential hate crime.  The attack took place as the woman was walking near Delancey and Allen Street in the Lower East Side at around 1 p.m., according to police.  The victim was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition.  Raoul Hyacianthe was arrested and charged with assault as a hate crime.  The 44-year-old suspect apparently exchanged no words with the victim before he allegedly punched her.  Hyacianthe has a lengthy rap sheet including arrests for robbery, criminal mischief, menacing and criminal possession of a controlled substance.

Protests Get Violent in NYC's Times Square After Release of Tyre Nichols Video.  We reported on the video released in the beating death of Tyre Nichols, and the video was not good.  The police officers involved, who were all black, were fired and charged with second-degree murder in his death.  So, one would think that "justice" was being pursued.  Nichols' family reportedly called for peace, saying they didn't want any disturbance and were satisfied with how the case had been proceeding so far.  But some in New York weren't listening.  There was a march with folks carrying the signs of the Party of Socialism and Liberation.  People from the unaffiliated BLM group in New York, and their leader Hawk Newsome, were also marching.  If you wonder who is marching in most leftist protests, PSL is almost always a big factor; you'll see their recycled signs.  [Tweet]

NYC bodegas padlock laundry detergent as shoplifting scourge hits new low.  Desperate Bronx grocers are cracking down on serial thieves by slipping steel chains through the handles of laundry detergent bottles and securing them with padlocks — a new low in the shoplifting scourge across the Big Apple.  "I put the detergent in jail," lamented Jose Dario Collado, owner of Yankee Food Deli in University Heights, which began locking up $27.99 bottles of Tide and $12.99 containers of Dreft because thieves were cleaning up — to the tune of at least $1,000 a month in detergent alone.

NYC grocery stores consider locking up food due to rampant theft; workers are 'traumatized'.  Shampoo, toothpaste, and razor blades are all items that grocery stores have increasingly started locking behind counters.  Soon, that list might include food.  "People have no fear of coming to your store and stealing," said Nelson Eusebio of the National Supermarket Association.  "Our employees are terrified," Eusebio continued.  "We have young people that come to work, young cashiers who work part-time, these kids are 16-17 years old.  They're traumatized."

Looters ransack snowbound Buffalo as cops are stuck elsewhere.  Deadly blizzard conditions in upstate New York gave cover to local looters over the weekend as they robbed businesses while police were stuck elsewhere.  "I don't know how these people can even live with themselves, how they can look at themselves in the mirror," Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown raged to reporters Monday.  "They are the 'lowest of the low,"' Brown said of the opportunistic crooks.  Some businesses had their windows smashed and merchandise damaged and stolen as snow and ice pummeled the region, local TV station WRGZ reported.  Buffalo cops made a "few" arrests, according to city Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia, who added that investigations continue into other incidents after widespread reports of looting on social media.

Thugs violently attack innocent Asian man on subway in NYC.  A new case of hate crime against an Asian male and his female companion occurred yet again in the increasingly violent New York City subway system.  An Asian couple received an unprovoked attack from a trio of thugs, two women and a make, who suddenly called the Asian pair using racist remarks.  Reports indicate one of the thugs called the Asian male an 'Asian pig.[']  It's a shame for New York since the city is long known as one of the most culturally diverse metropolitans in the US.  Now it's becoming a hub for racist activity, especially against the Asian community.  The crime occurred on the subway car traveling from the Grand Central Station to Times Square.

Dems to Voters: Why Do You Care About Crime?  In February, Frank Abrokwa, 37, was arrested for the 45th time.  (Thanks, U.S. immigration officials!  Another job well done.)  Among Abrokwa's most recent arrests:
 --  On Jan. 7, he was arrested for hitting a 30-year-old man, a complete stranger, on a subway platform.  Released without bail.
 --  On Feb. 5, he was arrested for punching a 53-year-old man, also a stranger, at the Port Authority Bus Terminal.  Released without bail.
 --  On Feb. 21, he was arrested for smashing his own feces into a woman's face as she sat in a subway station.  Released without bail.
 --  On Feb. 22 — the very next day! — he was arrested for shoplifting at a hardware store and threatening employees with a screwdriver.  Released without bail.
All in all, New York's no-bail law is working great!  The law is called "no bail" but really means "no jail, not ever, no matter how many times you're arrested."  How did such a dangerous policy become law?  It seems that in 2020, Democrats finally gained total control of state government, the first time that's happened since World War II, except for a single year in 1964.  And what was the first item on the Democrats' agenda, literally the moment after they were sworn in?  Crack down on Wall Street?  Fill potholes and creaking bridges?  NO!  They passed a law to ensure that no criminal ever spends a night in jail!  True, a lot more people are getting raped, stabbed, slashed, mugged and shoved onto subway tracks on account of the no-bail law.  But for Democrats, protecting New Yorkers from violent attack is not the goal of law enforcement.  The main objective of the criminal justice system is to ensure that it does not "worsen racial disparities," as explained by The New York Times' Mara Gay.

Suspect in NYC 'knockout-game' subway attack held on $20K bail: 'Why am I in trouble?'  The "problem kid" charged in a suspected knockout-game attack on a 62-year-old Bronx straphanger claimed the vicious assault was in self-defense, court papers show — as he was ordered held on $20,000 bail.  Deshaun Smith, 21, is charged with assault, harassment and reckless endangerment for allegedly punching the unsuspecting victim and knocking him onto the tracks at the 149th Street station Sunday night, according to police.  According to a criminal complaint, Smith allegedly slugged the straphanger in the head out of nowhere while the victim was waiting for a No. 4 train — then shoved him onto the subway tracks.

For More Crime, Vote Democrat!  New York Mayor Eric Adams would have been the Democrats' runaway choice for president if only he'd kept his campaign promise and cut crime in the Big Apple.  No mayoral candidate talked about "safety, safety, safety" more than he.  As Adams told MSNBC during the campaign:  "Public safety and justice is the prerequisite to prosperity.  And I think that we have become too symbolic, instead of realistic, on how you keep cities safe.  And it's time for the Democratic Party to understand this.  America wants to be safe.  And we can do it with justice at the same time."  If a black mayor had saved New York City, no one could have beaten him.  Not only that, but Adams has a black deputy mayor for public safety (Phil Banks), a black police commissioner (Keechant L. Sewell) and a black district attorney (Alvin Bragg).  As conservatives never tire of pointing out, murder victims are overwhelmingly black (as are murder perpetrators, but let's not mention that).  In a world that has only recently discovered that "Black Lives Matter," wouldn't an all-black law enforcement team come down like a sledgehammer on crime?

Sex fiend gets 'sweet' deal from Manhattan DA Bragg on teen rape charge — then attacks 5 others: sources.  A man accused of raping his teenage relative secured a sweetheart plea deal from Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg — and then went on to allegedly sexually terrorize five people in the Bronx just a month later, The [New York] Post has learned.  Justin Washington, 25, was promised a plum 30-day jail sentence, along with five years of probation, after he agreed in August to plead down to a charge of coercion in his Manhattan rape case.  But just a week before he was set to be sentenced Wednesday, Washington allegedly went on a sex-crime spree, attacking four women and a man near the homeless shelter where he was living in the Bronx.  After finding out about the Sept. 15 arrest, prosecutors with the Manhattan District Attorney's Office said they were reconsidering the sentence recommended with the plea deal — which some cops said should never have been offered in the first place.

'Knockout game' returns to New York: Twenty innocent people have been sucker-punched so far this year.  A warped 'knockout' game which sees violent criminals punch strangers for fun is feared to have made a comeback in crime-ridden New York City.  Almost 20 of the violent and apparently motive-less knockout game incidents have been reported to the NYPD so far this year, including a Bronx man who almost died after being punched to the ground outside a restaurant.  Other knockout game victims include a 36 year-old man filmed being knocked out cold after being whacked over the head at a Brooklyn mall, and a 74 year-old woman slapped to the sidewalk in Midtown Manhattan earlier this month.

Angry customers caught on camera trashing NYC eatery, hurling items at workers.  Three raging customers trashed a Manhattan eatery in a caught-on-camera outburst over the weekend that left two employees injured, police said.  The wild scene took place at Bel Fries, a fry restaurant on Ludlow Street in the nightlife-centric Lower East Side, at 4:10 a.m. Sunday and ended with the arrests of three women, according to the NYPD.  Shocking video of the mayhem posted to Twitter shows the trio of suspects hurling glass bottles, a metal stool and other items at employees, leaping over the counter, throwing sauce all over the restaurant and destroying a plastic barrier.  A crowd of people can be heard cheering and filming the chaos with their phones.  Their rowdy tirade started over the women's anger at the eatery's $1.75 fee for extra sauce, according to one report.

Another shocking random killing in Manhattan, and Eric Adams blames the gun.  In New York, there's a lot of horror at a seemingly random killing of a 20-year-old woman pushing a baby stroller with her three-month-old infant on an Upper East Side street. [...] Now, we still don't know much about what happened.  Was it a boyfriend issue?  Did she know the killer?  Was there a racial component?  Was the woman killed for being Asian, or white, or some other "wrong" color?  Was it really the Upper East Side as reported, given that it's two blocks from Spanish Harlem on the map?  Or was it the same kind of nightmare crime that is increasingly happening in New York, where a random passenger is pushed in front of a moving subway, or a random person on the subway gets stabbed, or a college student walking to class or from the park is randomly shot from behind for no apparent reason?

Mother walking with baby stroller fatally shot in NYC.  A young mother pushing her 3-month-old infant in a stroller was fatally shot Wednesday night on an Upper East Side street, police and law enforcement sources said.  The 20-year-old woman was shot once in the head at point-blank range by a suspect who approached her from behind at Lexington Avenue and East 95th Street around 8:25 p.m., according to the NYPD and sources.  The baby was unharmed, police said.

Serial looter freed again after 122nd bust.  People who frequently hang around in the vicinity of the jail in Manhattan were treated to what is probably by now a familiar sight yesterday.  The ritual in question was 34-year-old Lorenzo McLucas walking out of the jail as free as a bird.  The locals certainly should be able to recognize McLucas at this point.  This was the 50th time he had been arrested and immediately released just this year.  In all, he has 122 busts for looting and shoplifting under his belt.  (He probably stole the belt as well.)  In his latest heist, he was caught after clearing off the cosmetics counter at the pricey Duane Reade shop on Lexington Avenue.  Cosmetics sell quickly on the streets at a discount, you see.

There Was Another Mass Shooting On Monday, But Democrats Don't Care — Why?  There was another mass shooting in America on Monday, and the carnage was horrific.  A total of nine people were shot, all of them were taken to nearby hospitals, and at least one person is dead: a 21-year-old college basketball player who, by all accounts, wasn't just a terrific athlete but was also a genuinely good person. [...] Why has this story been so widely brushed off?  The answer is simple:  Because of where it happened.  Monday's mass shooting of nine people happened in New York City, first and foremost, and that's a city run by Democrats.  Furthermore, the incident happened on 139th Street in Manhattan.  And for those of you who are unfamiliar with the Big Apple's geography, that part of the city is considered Harlem, a neighborhood whose residents are almost exclusively black.

On Juneteenth, Bullets Fly From Obama Boulevard to John Lewis Way.  Over the Juneteenth weekend, 9 people were shot in Harlem.  Among them was Darius Lee, an aspiring basketball player from the mostly black neighborhood, who was the only one killed in the mass shooting.  The wounded included two women and six men in a shooting that began over the filming of a rap video.  Over 40 shots were fired.  Elsewhere in the Big Apple, a gunman ran up to three men in Queens and opened fire with a rifle, wounding two and killing one.  Dwayne Whyte was arrested in the shooting.  "When is enough going to be enough?  When we gonna put these guns down?" a community liaison asked after the Harlem attack.  "The emboldened individuals responsible for this are exactly who our officers are battling every day to make our city safe," NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell said.  The New York mass shootings were one of a number of shootings over the Juneteenth weekend.

NYC man nabbed in subway slashings had just been freed after knife dispute with cops.  A Queens man was arrested over the weekend for two random subway slashings in as many days — crimes he allegedly committed after being picked up, then let go, for brandishing a knife at cops.  Donny Ubiera, 32, stabbed two straphangers — one in the face and the other in the neck — without provocation in separate incidents Friday and Saturday morning along the Flushing-to-Midtown No. 7 subway line, the NYPD said in a statement.  The accused serial slasher had just gotten out of jail Thursday — with a single night of "time served" — for allegedly refusing to put down a large knife when confronted by Queens officers on the street and then trying to flee with it the day before.

The news media consistently uses the term "random" to conceal black-on-white hate crimes.

Brooklyn man who died from shove was sucker-punched and robbed, shocking new video shows.  A 61-year-old man who died after he was shoved to the ground outside his Brooklyn home was sucker-punched by two men who then robbed him as he lay dying, shocking video released by police Thursday shows.  Victor Vega was found unconscious suffering from a massive head injury in front of his Bedford-Stuyvesant home on Lexington Ave. near Nostrand Ave. about 8:25 p.m. May 25, cops said.  He died at Kings County Hospital Monday.  Surveillance video released by the NYPD shows he fell backward after a man he was walking down the sidewalk with punched him without warning in the head.

NYPD arrest 'drunk' thug who tossed 52-year-old woman onto subway tracks in brutal random attack that police say shattered her collarbone.  Police have arrested a man who was seen on surveillance video tossing a 52-year-old woman onto the subway tracks in the Bronx in a random attack on Sunday [6/5/2022].  The suspect has been identified as Theodore Ellis, 30, of the Bronx, who faces charges of assault and reckless endangerment, an NYPD spokesperson told DailyMail.com.  Ellis told police that was drunk and he 'didn't realize his strength' when he threw woman onto subway tracks, ABC7 News reported.  The victim, whose name was not released, suffered a broken collarbone, and many cuts and bruises.  She was rushed to Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx, and was said to be in stable condition.  It is unclear if the victim is still at the hospital.

Video shows man violently toss woman onto Bronx subway tracks.  Newly released video captured the horrifying moment a man violently tossed a 52-year-old woman onto the subway tracks in the Bronx on Sunday.  The footage, provided Monday by the NYPD, shows the still-at-large suspect's random attack on the victim at the Jackson Avenue station at about 4:45 p.m.  The man, wearing a backwards baseball cap and white tank top, approached the woman from behind, grabbed her with both hands and threw her towards the tracks, the video shows.  The woman hit the platform pavement before tumbling onto the roadbed.  Bystanders helped pick the woman up from the track and onto the platform, an MTA spokesperson said.  No train was approaching when she was tossed onto the tracks.

Notice that the perpetrators in these "completely random" attacks are always black, and the victims are not.  But if you call it a hate crime, you're a racist.

Disgruntled customer goes on glass smashing rampage at Queens restaurant.  A Chinese restaurant in Queens was vandalized Saturday afternoon by a regular customer who had been kicked out of the establishment earlier in the day for not wearing pants, the owner said.  The disgruntled man returned to 4 Choices & A Soup on Roosevelt Avenue in Flushing with a hammer at 4:40 p.m., smashing doors, windows and the glass surrounding the food bar, according to the owner and security footage.  "He went to our store many times already today.  I already asked my worker.  My workers [said he had] been there before without any pants," Jenny Xie, 48, told The Post in a phone interview.

Sir Isaac Lootin'
'Man of Steal' speaks: thief with 46 arrests exploited city's fears — and jail might save his life.  The serial thief who led the city in shoplifting busts last year with a staggering 46 arrests says he exploited his Queens neighborhood's fears, lax store security and soft-on crime prosecutors, during an exclusive jailhouse interview with The [New York] Post.  Isaac Rodriguez, who made the paper's Oct. 3, 2021 front page as the "Man of Steal," pilfered a Jackson Heights Walgreens at will — at least 37 times last year — loading up on anything he could easily flip for cash, which he then quickly converted to heroin-cocaine speedballs.  Eyewitnesses?  Never a concern.  "Where I come from, people mind their business, and if they don't, bad things happen to them," Sir Isaac Lootin' said in the candid 50-minute video sitdown from Rikers Island.  "I'm from the hood.  "Some employees would try to talk to me, but they would never touch me."


Thug steals $1,700 in stock from Duane Reade and returns ten minutes later to attack staff.  A thief violently attacked two New York City drug store workers with a bicycle chain.  The man had stolen more than $1,700 worth of merchandise from a Duane Reade in Manhattan 10 minutes before the brazen attack.  As he was leaving with his stolen loot, the thief promised to attack the workers.  Minutes later her returned to make good on his threat.  The suspect, waving the bicycle chain in his hand, went behind the counter and started hitting the employees, before running off.

Guess what adjective is missing from this headline:
Woman hurls anti-Asian insults at man on NYC train: cops.  A hateful attacker hurled anti-Asian statements at a man on a Brooklyn train before biting and scratching him, authorities said.  The victim, a 65-year-old man, was riding a southbound A train running on the F line near York Street around 5:20 p.m. Sunday when a woman began to curse and use anti-Asian language, cops said.  Then she bit the man on the back and scratched his arms, authorities said.  The victim was taken to Interfaith Medical Center, where he was listed in stable condition.

Girl, 16, stabbed in apparent unprovoked broad-daylight attack in NYC.  An attacker knifed a 16-year-old girl in the shoulder in an unprovoked attack in Brooklyn, disturbing video released Wednesday shows.  The footage from NYPD shows the teen walking into the Urban Juice Bar & Grill on Rutland Road in Brownsville around 6 p.m. May 22 when a man came up behind her, raised a black knife and stabbed her once in the left shoulder without saying a word.  Then the suspect slowly walked off, the clip shows.

Andrew Abdullah
NYC subway crime is soaring because we no longer bother to prevent it.  On Sunday, Daniel Enriquez became the New York City subway's latest "random" crime victim, shot in the chest at close range and killed as he traveled from Brooklyn to Manhattan for midmorning brunch.  Enriquez was the fourth person to die by violence on the subway this year, and the third to be killed by a stranger.  Each of the four subway killings has something in common with the others: justified intervention by police, prosecution, or incarceration could have prevented it.  A few years ago, it likely would have.  New York is suffering soaring crime because it has abruptly switched its justice system from enlightened prevention to gruesome mop-up.  The city's justice system is still good at solving the most serious crimes.  Just hours after Enriquez's murder, police identified a suspect: 25-year-old Andrew Abdullah.  But Abdullah's background points up the fact that there shouldn't have been a serious crime to solve in the first place.  He has a criminal history that stretches back to his teen years.  He has 19 arrests and served a state sentence for a previous gun crime.


Knife-wielding man leaps off his bike and stabs a stranger on the Upper East Side.  A man in the Upper East Side wearing an all-black outfit and mask was caught on surveillance camera hacking a pedestrian he didn't know with a knife in broad daylight.  The NYPD said the stabbing took place at about 1:50p.m. on Thursday at the corner of Third Avenue and East 63rd Street, just a couple of feet away from the entrance of the subway station on Lexington Avenue and 63rd.  The suspect reportedly approached the victim from behind after hopping off his electronic bike and crossing the street, according to law enforcement officials.

But at least someone was there to record the whole thing.
An Insane [black] Person Boards a NYC Subway Car, Grabs [white] Woman By The Hair, She Begs For Help, No One Bothers.  These were the tense moments aboard a NYC subway car yesterday when what appears to be a trans person starts shouting at everyone for no apparent reason.  The crazed person sits next to a woman, who tries to move away but is grabbed by the hair and forced to sit back down.  The individual refuses to let go of her hair as the woman is begging for help.  The woman is stood up and is tossed aside.  The individual then prances up and down the car yelling incoherently as everyone tries to flee to a safe space but this is NYC, there are no safe spaces.  [Video clip]

Man shot and killed on NYC subway in broad daylight, cops say.  A deranged gunman shot and killed a 48-year-old straphanger aboard a Manhattan subway train Sunday morning in what cops are calling an unprovoked attack.  The shooter, who was still on the loose Sunday afternoon, paced back and forth in the last car of the northbound Q train around 11:42 a.m. before he opened fire on the random victim seated inside, police and sources said.  "Completely random," one police source said.  The victim, whose name wasn't immediately released, was rushed to Bellevue Hospital where he was later pronounced dead, police said.

The Editor says...
The news media in New York is always very quick to excuse cold-blooded killers as "deranged" and the killings as "totally random" — especially when the shooter is black and the victim is not, which is almost always the case, and apparently was the case this time.  The newspapers' writers dare not suggest that blacks are racist or that they target white people just because they're white; but if the colors were reversed, hate crime accusations would fly.

Madison Ave retailers lock doors in daytime amid crime frenzy.  New York City's luxury retail outlook is dim — literally.  Swanky Madison Avenue shops on the Upper East Side are lowering lights, locking doors and opening by appointment only in an effort to combat a relentless scourge of brazen daytime shoplifters terrorizing the glitzy thoroughfare.  The Carolina Herrera boutique near 67th Street has been robbed so many times it now pretends to be shuttered, with lights dimmed and door dead-bolted shut, even during normal business hours.  "It looks closed," lamented one bride-to-be, hoping to drop six figures on three Herrera dresses for the walk down the aisle and post-ceremony receptions.  She noted it's a "bad look" for one of the world's most celebrated luxury shopping districts.

Gerald Brevard III
Some people should be locked up.  Permanently.
'Psychotic' suspect in shootings that terrorized homeless in New York and D.C. avoided prison for dozens of alleged crimes over more than a decade.  The man held in the killing of two homeless men and attacks on three others was previously found to be 'psychotic,' not fit to stand trial, and tried to hide his prison rap lyrics 'in his buttocks'.  Gerald Brevard III, 30, was arrested Tuesday for the cold-blooded killings and shootings, some of which were caught on shocking video.  Brevard has a long rap sheet including armed robbery, assault with a firearm, destruction of property and theft.  His father, Gerald Brevard Jr., told DailyMail.com in a statement that his son 'suffers from mental illness' and complained that 'the system has failed regarding the treatment of so many, including my son.'

Suspect nabbed in hammer attack on Asian man has 47 prior busts: cops.  The suspect busted in the hate-fueled hammer attack on an Asian man in a Manhattan train station is a known "transit offender" with nearly four dozen prior arrests, cops and police sources said Thursday [3/10/2022].  Christian Jeffers, 48, who identifies as a woman, was picked up shortly after 2 p.m. Wednesday — about 17 hours after she allegedly attacked the 29-year-old male victim at the 14th Street 1/2/3 station Tuesday, police said.  Jeffers was charged with assault, aggravated harassment and menacing — all as hate crimes — and criminal possession of a weapon, authorities said.  Her arraignment was pending Thursday.  Prior to that bust, she was arrested 47 times, dating back to 2007, cops said.

NYC McDonald's employee brutally stabbed while defending coworkers.  A hero Harlem McDonald's worker was repeatedly stabbed by an irate customer early Wednesday while defending his coworkers — leaving him clinging for his life, cops said.  The 31-year-old victim intervened when he saw the suspect arguing with other workers inside the fast-food joint on Third Avenue near East 117th Street around 12:40 a.m., police said.  The suspect then stabbed him in the back and left arm, and slashed him in the face, authorities said.  The victim, who lives in the Bronx, was rushed to Harlem Hospital, where he was listed in critical condition, cops said.

Serial criminal awaiting sentencing for assault with a deadly weapon is bailed yet again.  A New York City serial criminal awaiting sentencing for assault with a deadly weapon now stands accused of slashing an Asian man in the face with a razor on the subway — and has since been bailed yet again.  Brendan Dowling, 40, faces second degree assault and evidence tampering charges over an incident that took place on a J train in Manhattan at around 8:22 a.m. Sunday [3/6/2022].  Dowling, allegedly unprovoked, slashed a 41-year-old Asian man who was just sitting on the train near Essex Street and Delancey Street in the face.

The police say they can't do anything."

Marlon Carr
Bigoted NYC resident's alleged reign of terror ends in vicious anti-Asian assault, arrest.  A man who allegedly terrorized his East Harlem neighbors with violent racist screeds for more than a year was finally arrested, sources said.  Things got so bad at 158th East 126th Street, residents called the 8th floor the "floor of terror," sources said.  That's where Marlon Carr, 47, lived and was arrested Friday morning, after barricading himself inside his apartment following a racist assault on his neighbor, a 39-year-old Asian man, according to law enforcement sources.  "He was so angry at people because they make huge noise when they closed the door," one of his victims told The [New York] Post.  Carr allegedly accosted the victim, a 22-year-old Chinese woman, with vile comments and charged at outside her apartment on Feb. 21, police said.


NYC poop attack perp has over 20 arrests since 1999, cops say.  The sicko accused of smearing feces on a woman's face in a revolting Bronx attack has a lengthy rap sheet — and was released without bail in separate assault cases last month, authorities said Thursday [2/24/2022].  Frank Abrokwa, 37, has been arrested more than 20 times since 1999, including on Feb. 5, when he allegedly slugged a man in the face at the Port Authority Bus Terminal, according to cops and a criminal complaint.  The victim felt someone punch him, and when he turned around, Abrokwa was the only person in the immediate area, the complaint said.  He was charged with third-degree assault, aggravated harassment in the second degree, attempted assault in the third degree, and second-degree aggravated harassment, the complaint said.

Bronx Man Arrested In Subway Human Feces Attack:  NYPD.  A Bronx man carried out a bizarre human feces attack on a subway platform, authorities said.  The arrest of Frank Abrokwa, 37, on Monday came hours after a NYPD-released video from the subway assault went viral.  The video showed a man — who police say is Abrokwa — walk up to a 43-year-old woman sitting on a bench at the East 241st Street subway station on Feb. 21.  Without warning, the man smears excrement on the woman's head and neck.  The viral video added fuel to growing concerns about subway safety.  Mayor Eric Adams said Monday the incident, and others, likely stemmed from mental health issues.

The Editor says...
Why is every violent black perpetrator given the benefit of the doubt, that he or she probably has "mental health issues?"  Isn't it possible that many of them are just violently mean, and choose their victims because they're white?  If the colors were reversed, would it not be obvious?

Wait — it gets better.
Poop attack perp released without bail.  The sicko who allegedly smashed his own feces in a Bronx straphanger's face joked with cops [...] before sneering to a Bronx judge, "[...]"  Frank Abrokwa, 37, was busted Monday at his homeless shelter in connection to the revolting Feb. 21 attack, according to cops and police sources.  Upon arrest, he made light of the attack, quipping to cops, "[...]," Bronx Assistant District Attorney Grace Phillips said during Abrokwa's arraignment late Tuesday.  Abrokwa — apparently impatient because Brooklyn detectives showed up to arrest him for an unrelated hate crime from September — also made a scene in Bronx Criminal Court.

The NYC poop attacker exemplifies Democrat criminal justice failures.  Lately, Americans have been made aware of the problems with the revolving door criminal justice system that operates wherever Democrats have had a hand in drafting the laws.  For example, the man who drove through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, killing six and injuring scores of others, had a lengthy rap sheet and almost no comparable prison time.  The man who smeared a woman with his feces in the New York City subway is the same type of criminal.  What makes him interesting is how he behaved in court for his arraignment and the result of that conduct.

Thug Beats A Woman Over The Head With A Hammer During Robbery In NYC.  A 57-year-old woman was pummeled in the head by a hammer-wielding suspect in a brutal robbery as she walked into a Long Island City, Queens, subway station.  Nina Rothschild is in critical condition after police believe she was hit as many as 13 times.  [Video clip]

At least six people are stabbed on NYC subway over the holiday weekend.  At least six people were stabbed over the weekend in the New York City's crime-ridden subway system, which has seen close to 300 violent incidents so far this year, despite city and state leaders' efforts to curb the bloodshed.  The first of the half-dozen attacks took place just hours after New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Governor Kathy Hochul, both Democrats, announced a crackdown on rampant crime and homelessness in the sprawling transit system.  The 31-year-old victim was on a southbound 6 train approaching Canal Street at 6.10pm on Sunday when police say a stranger plunged a knife twice into his arm without any apparent provocation.

Inside NYC's skyrocketing anti-Asian violence:  How hate speech led to hate crimes.  Three days after US officials first used the term "China Virus" on a national news broadcast, a barrage of anti-Asian attacks began in New York City.  Within hours, two Asian Americans were separately assaulted — the first of such hate crimes in the city for the year and marking a deeply troubling, sometimes deadly trend that continues today.  [Examples omitted for brevity.]  Before those attacks, not a single hate crime against Asian Americans had been reported to the NYPD in 2020.  But by the end of that year, there were 30 — a 900-percent surge from just three recorded in 2019.

The article goes on and on after that, without ever mentioning that nearly all the perpetrators of hate crimes in New York City are black.  The writer focuses on ethnicity only in regard to the victims.

Psaki gaslights on anti-Asian hate because — yet again — Team Biden has no answers.  Oops, White House press secretary Jen Psaki did it again, this time blaming the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes on "the hate-filled rhetoric and language around the origins of the pandemic" — meaning, of course, it's Trump's fault again.  The absurdity is obvious since the prompt for Psaki's gaslighting was Sunday's slaying of Christina Yuna Lee in Manhattan.  Caught at the scene was homeless career criminal Assamad Nash.  This follows last month's fatal subway-shoving of Michelle Alyssa Go by another drifter, also suffering serious mental illness.  Neither perp fits the core "listens to Donald Trump" demographic, to put it mildly.  And New York and other left-leaning cities largely let madmen roam free, at most jailing or committing them for a few days before letting them loose again.  It's the same revolving-door treatment for most criminals who don't have a screw loose — an approach the Bidenites fully support.

Breakdancer stabbed on NYC subway train, suspect arrested.  The NYPD says it has made an arrest after a 22-year-old breakdancer was stabbed while aboard an L train in the New York City subway.  44-year-old Lateef Coleman, who is believed to be homeless, is now facing charges including assault and criminal possession of a weapon.  The victim was reportedly performing on the train when he was stabbed three times in an unprovoked attack.  He suffered two stab wounds to his leg and one to his arm.

Man punches 4-year-old, kicks cop in afternoon Times Square attack.  An unhinged man with a history of attacking strangers randomly slugged a 4-year-old boy in the head in Times Square — then promptly got lit up like the lights on Broadway by two women, with the child's mother also stepping in to help restrain him until officers arrived, law enforcement sources and prosecutors said.  Babacar Mbaye, 34, was arrested Thursday after the unprovoked broad-daylight attack at 46th Street and Seventh Avenue at the Crossroads of the World, the NYPD said.  The brute allegedly hit the child at around 3:20 p.m. as the area bustled with pedestrians enjoying an unseasonably warm afternoon.  He was then tackled by the child's mom and another woman, according to the NYPD, law enforcement and security footage obtained by The [New York] Post.

'Professional' thief with 96 prior arrests busted again at NYC Target.  A self-described "professional booster" with 96 arrests on her record was nabbed again this week for allegedly stealing from an Upper East Side Target — and then released at her arraignment on Thursday, The [New York] Post has learned.  Michelle Mckelley, 42, allegedly boasted about her "hustle" at the store on Third Avenue near East 70th Street, telling cops, "I haven't got caught in a long time," after her latest bust Wednesday, prosecutors said in Manhattan Criminal Court.  "I'm a professional booster.  Y'all are stopping my hustle," the serial shoplifter allegedly told officers.

Teen brothers held without bail in shooting of off-duty NYPD housing cop.  Two teen brothers with a raft of prior arrests were ordered held without bail Saturday [2/12/2022] in the shooting of an off-duty police officer who was attending a memorial service in West Harlem.  Paris Francis, 17, and Prince Francis, 16, of Manhattanville, were in Manhattan Criminal Court to face the music following their Thursday arrests.  Paris Francis is alleged to be the triggerman in the Feb. 5 shooting of veteran policer officer Robert Manley, prosecutors said.  Manley, an off-duty NYPD housing cop, was shot in the foot about 4:30 p.m. after he attended a memorial service for a community member at the Manhattanville Houses in West Harlem.

Woman fatally stabbed inside NYC apartment after being followed: cops.  A woman was stabbed to death inside her Chinatown apartment early Sunday [2/13/2022] after her alleged killer followed her home — and her final moments were caught on chilling surveillance footage.  Video obtained by The [New York] Post shows the suspect tailing the 35-year-old victim on the street as she enters her Chrystie Street apartment building, following close behind as she opens the front door and strolls into the hallway.  Minutes later, a neighbor across the hallway of the victim's sixth-floor apartment at 111 Chrystie Street called 911 around 4:30 a.m. after hearing her screams during the brutal stabbing, law-enforcement sources said. [...] Cops who responded to the 911 call allegedly found the suspect, identified by sources as Assamad Nash, 25, inside the apartment and covered in blood. [...] Sources said Nash, 25, is a homeless career criminal with three open cases and a record of several escapes from police custody.

Queens man with lengthy rap sheet charged in random NYC subway attack on Thai model.  A Queens man has been busted for the horrifying November attack on an aspiring Thai model on a Herald Square subway platform, police said Saturday [2/12/2022].  Kevin Douglas, 40, was charged Thursday with second-degree robbery, third-degree robbery and second-degree assault, according to the NYPD.  The address provided by police for Douglas was a Days Inn hotel near JFK International Airport.  But Douglas has been in jail since the Nov. 22 subway attack, locked up for another crime later the same day as the assault, public records show.  The attack happened at 4:30 a.m. as Bew Jirajariyawetch, 23, was on the uptown D platform waiting for a train home to Queens.

Teen charged in back-to-back anti-Jewish Brooklyn attacks.  A 15-year-old boy has been arrested and charged with hate crimes in two separate Brooklyn assaults just minutes apart, police said Friday [2/11/2022].  The teen, whose name is being withheld by police due to his age, was arrested Thursday in connection to a back-to-back punching spree Feb. 4.  In one assault, the boy was caught on camera sneaking up behind a Hasidic man walking with another person on Stockton St. near Marcy Ave. in Bedford-Stuyvesant just after 10:25 p.m., cops said.

Creep tries to rape woman on NYC subway, cops say.  A man tried to rape a 21-year-old woman on a Lower Manhattan subway train Wednesday morning, police said.  The sicko randomly attacked the victim aboard a northbound E train that was approaching the Canal Street station at about 10:20 a.m., according to cops.  He first slid his hand under her pants and the woman quickly rose from her seat to flee, police said.  But the creep grabbed hold of her and shoved her into the corner of the train car before he tried to rape her, according to police.

Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg admits his own Harlem neighborhood is in 'crisis'.  Accused soft-on-crime Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg conceded Tuesday that even his own Harlem neighborhood is in "crisis" amid a surge in street violence.  The beleaguered district attorney recounted how he attended two anti-gun rallies in Upper Manhattan over the weekend — and that there were shootings apparently around the same time or shortly after each.  "I still live in Harlem, in the upper part of the borough, which is really in the middle of a crisis," Bragg said during a virtual talk with the nonprofit Coro New York Leadership Center in Lower Manhattan.  "I was at an anti-gun rally on Saturday [in Harlem], and then I left and found out that a few blocks away at almost the exact time, there was another shooting," said the prosecutor, who has drawn widespread outrage over his aggressively progressive policies.

DA Alvin Bragg's Harlem neighbors say they're terrified of local recent crime.  It's been hell in Harlem — the backyard of accused soft-on-crime Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.  In the past few days alone, the storied neighborhood has seen a series of high-profile crimes, including an off-duty cop shot, a man pummeled and run over by a car in a brutal gang assault and a city transit bus full of passengers hit by a stray bullet in broad daylight.  And those crimes come on the heels of the shooting deaths of two young NYPD cops in Harlem late last month.  Crime is up nearly 30 percent so far this year in the area.  And while the crime rate has risen even more in other city neighborhoods, Harlem residents are shaken to their core, given the recent spate of local crimes grabbing headlines.

Man in traditional Jewish garb randomly attacked in Brooklyn.  A man in traditional Jewish garb was randomly attacked while walking in Brooklyn on Friday night, police said.  The 24-year-old victim was sucker-punched by a male suspect in front of 104 Stockton St. in Bedford-Stuyvesant at about 10:30 p.m., according to the NYPD.  Video provided by police shows the suspect sneak out from between cars and run up to the victim before slugging him in the face.  The victim was treated at the scene.  The suspect fled in the opposite direction after the attack and was still on the loose as of early Monday.

Unhinged commuter attacks two MTA train conductors at same station:  NYPD.  An unhinged commuter attacked two MTA conductors during a violent 7-minute spree at a Bronx train station, police said Saturday [2/5/2022].  The suspect, who was wearing a black bubble coat, grey hoodie and was carrying a cup of coffee, appeared agitated and was pacing on the Manhattan-bound platform at the Prospect Ave. station near Longwood Ave. in Foxhurst at 3:13 p.m.  Thursday when a No. 5 train came rolling into the station.  When the conductor opened his window to perform a safety check, the straphanger punched him in his arm before the train went onto the next station.

NYC thieves swarm upscale boutique in $50K afternoon robbery.  Five robbers swarmed a high-end Soho boutique Thursday afternoon, stealing $48,300 worth of luxury goods and injuring a security guard.  The brazen heist happened around 12:30 p.m. at the Celine Boutique on Wooster Street, where some pricey handbags retail for thousands of dollars, the NYPD said.  Two suspects casually entered the Manhattan store before three cohorts pushed the door open and fought with the French boutique's security, according to police.  One guard suffered an injury to his elbow and thumb during the fracas.  The suspects fled the store with their haul and remained on the run Friday night, police said.

Three teens charged after shooting inside Brooklyn's Kings Plaza mall sends shoppers scrambling.  Three teens — two of them already facing gun raps from recent arrests — have been charged after a gang-related shooting inside Brooklyn's Kings Plaza mall sent shoppers scrambling for cover, police said Tuesday [2/1/2022].  Timothy Briggs, 19, Jaheim Covington, 19, and Omarion Harvey, 18, were captured fleeing the Kings Plaza Shopping Center at Flatbush Ave. and Avenue U in Mill Basin after shots rang out inside the Laced Up sneaker store, cops said.  The three teens had two guns on them, one of which Briggs allegedly had just used to blast away at a group of six teens he and his friends were arguing with.  Briggs was out on $25,000 bail for a reckless driving, reckless endangerment and gun possession arrest.

Classless Goon Kicks An Elderly Woman Onto The Train Tracks In Jersey City.  A grade-A ratchet was caught on video drop-kicking an elderly lady onto the train tracks in Jersey City during an argument.  Even more shocking than the kick and attempted murder itself was the fact the elderly woman popped right up after the hard fall, was helped back onto the platform and was ready to fight the ghetto ninja who tried to kill her.  [Video clip]

Another video of shoplifting at Rite Aid emerges as store forced to shut.  Shoplifters are so unconcerned with being arrested in the city that one of them stopped to chat with The [New York] Post after ransacking a Manhattan drug store — which is closing for good because of the out-of-control crime scourge.  The Rite Aid at the corner of 8th Avenue and 50th Street in Hell's Kitchen will close Feb. 8 because of the rampant pilfering, said store sources who claim thieves have ripped off more than $200,000 worth of merchandise in the past two months alone.  A Post reporter followed one brazen thief at the store last week, watching him load four cases of beer into an oversize canvas bag in the back of the store and stride out without paying.

Suspect arrested in fatal Bronx club shooting over line for the bathroom.  A suspect wanted for a fatal Bronx nightclub shooting sparked by an argument over the line for the restroom has been nabbed, police said Wednesday [1/26/2022].  Damon Bailey, 40, was arrested Tuesday on murder and gun charges for allegedly shooting Shamar Watt, 30, during a May 9 fight over whose turn it was to use the bathroom in an unlicensed club on Third Ave. near E. 184th St. in Belmont, police said.  Watt, who died at St. Barnabas Hospital two days later, was a hospital accountant and longtime local rapper who performed under the name Malcolm Vuitton.

Brazen thieves are strolling out of stores in NYC's wealthy Upper East Side with bags full of stolen goods.  Brazen thieves have been hitting the same Upper East Side Rite Aid for months, forcing it to close — and now, numerous small businesses in the upscale Manhattan neighborhood, where residents say they are on high alert because of rising crime, are worried they will soon suffer the same fate after a string of thefts.  Shelves are already bare in the Rite Aid store, located at the corner of 80th Street and 2nd Avenue because it will shut its doors for good on February 15, the manager told DailyMail.com, a day after a thief was caught on video boldly sauntering out with shopping bags full of stolen goods.  The brazen incident in one of New York City's wealthiest neighborhoods was only captured on camera because actor and comedian Michael Rapaport had stopped by to pick up his prescription mood stabilizers.  He said it was 'pathetic' that brazen crime continues to spiral in the Big Apple because of soft-on-crime policies.

Michael Rapaport films brazen thief sauntering out of Upper East Side Rite Aid with bags full of stolen goods while security guard does nothing.  Michael Rapaport filmed the moment a bold thief sauntered out of a Rite Aid on the Upper East side of New York City with two shopping bags full of stolen goods, calling it 'pathetic' that brazen crime continues to spiral in the Big Apple because of soft-on-crime policies.  The actor and comedian, who posted footage of the incident on Instagram, told DailyMail.com that he was 'disgusted' and 'surprised' when he saw the thief stocking up on items from three different sections of the pharmacy before deciding he was satisfied.  'These criminals know there are no ramifications.  We have to put more of these [malefactors] in jail,' he said.

Somebody doesn't know what "randomly" means, and it isn't me.
Man in traditional Jewish garb randomly attacked in Brooklyn.  A man in traditional Jewish garb was randomly slugged in Brooklyn over the weekend, authorities said.  The 21-year-old victim was walking at Troy Avenue and Carroll Street in Crown Heights around 1:20 a.m.  Saturday when the suspect approached him from across the street, cops said.  Footage obtained by the Orthodox Jewish news service COLlive shows the victim, dressed in his Hasidic garments, standing on the sidewalk with another person identified by the outlet as his friend and fellow yeshiva student.  The suspect first swung at the friend, who managed to get away, the clip shows.

Manhattan Rite Aid pharmacy closing after rash of thefts, customers and workers say.  The days are numbered at Rite Aid's Eighth Ave. and W. 50th St. location.  The 24-hour store and pharmacy is scheduled to fill its last prescription on Feb. 8, and the Hell's Kitchen community is already mourning its loss.  Workers and customers speculated that the store had been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic and an endless stream of shoplifters who have hurt the store's bottom line.  They say the drug store should step up its security or cut back its hours before throwing in the towel.

The Editor says...
Retail stores exist to make a profit.  A pharmacy is not a magnanimous public service.  If shoplifting goes unchecked, theft goes unpunished, and violent crime is laughed off, every retail store will close, and the neighborhood will become an even more insufferable slum than it already is.

Parolee charged with hurling slur at Asian man, shoving him on subway.  A woman was charged Thursday [1/20/2022] with hurling a racial slur at an Asian man on a Manhattan subway — telling him "You people brought the virus here" and then shoving him, cops said.  Tandika Wright, 35, approached the 26-year-old victim at 6:15 p.m.  Dec. 9 on a southbound F train approaching the 23rd Street station and snarled, "Hey, are you a [...]?  You people brought the virus here.  You people killed my people," authorities said.  Then she shoved the victim and took off, police said.  Wright, who is on parole, was arrested more than a month after the attack and charged with aggravated harassment based on race or religion, authorities said.

Senior sucker-punched by stranger in unprovoked Brooklyn attack: video.  A 79-year-old man with a cane was walloped in Brooklyn by a complete stranger driving a moped — an alarming and unprovoked attack caught on video, police said Saturday.  The senior was talking to another person on Fourth Ave. near Carroll St. in Park Slope about 12 p.m. Friday when the suspect rolled down the bike lane on a moped, surveillance video recovered by police shows.  The assailant parked the moped and quietly walked over to the victim, looking around as he approached the unsuspecting senior.

NYPD arrests multiple vaccine mandate protesters in Times Square Olive Garden but failed to stop convicted felon shoving woman, 40, to her death just yards away in subway station.  Just hours before an apparently innocent woman was pushed onto the subway tracks by a convicted felon, a group of protesters at a nearby Olive Garden were arrested for refusing to show proof of a COVID vaccine.  Videos posted to social media showed a group of about half a dozen protesters staging a sit-in at the Times Square Olive Garden on Friday night to protest New York City's vaccine mandate for indoor dining.  The protesters reportedly remained inside the Olive Garden for two hours and refused to leave, which prompted the restaurant — which usually stays open until midnight — to close early, according to FOX News.

Times Square subway shove 'psycho' showed 'no emotion' as he timed train's arrival: witness.  The accused Times Square subway psycho apparently wanted to make sure he killed his victim — waiting to push her onto the tracks just as the train was entering the station, an eyewitness told The [New York] Post on Sunday.  Maria Coste-Webber said she was standing just feet away when homeless ex-con Simon Martial showed no emotion as he shoved tragic victim Michelle Alyssa Go, 40, in front of the train Saturday.  "[Go] was about a foot and a half away from the end of the platform waiting for the train, and he was about 3 feet behind her," Coste-Webber recalled.  "He pushed her at the same time the train was coming, like he timed it.  "He pushed her right in front of the train, and then she vanished as the train passed.  "She didn't see anything coming.  She was facing the train," Coste-Webber said.

Manhattan workers warned not to use public transit.  Is this the new normal?  New York City remains largely reopened after all of the COVID shutdowns and many people are returning to work in their offices rather than from home via Zoom calls and such.  But that doesn't mean that life has gone back to what it was in pre-pandemic days.  While the threat from the virus may be decreasing, the threat of violent crime has been steadily climbing in the other direction and that has altered the way employers have been advising their workers about safely commuting and navigating the streets of the city.  At some Wall Street financial institutions, managers are telling staffers to be "cautious" about how they make their way to the office.  At Bank of America, they are encouraging younger employees to dress in more casual, nondescript clothing without any sort of company emblem visible in order to lessen the chances of being mugged or assaulted.  Others are taking additional safety precautions.

The Editor says...
Blacks don't attack random Asians because they resent the Chinese origins of the coronavirus.  That is a news media fabrication.  Blacks attack random Asians because they're essentially white, generally smaller in size, and unlikely to be able to adequately defend themselves.  The blacks attack random non-black people for just for sport.  News media reports never include the perpetrator's race (unless the perp is white), but it isn't necessary.  Nobody else acts like that.

Any more tourist attacks, and visitors won't ever return to NYC.  Here's an economic-development idea for Gotham's political class:  How about we stop shooting and stabbing our tourists?  In the past few months, visitors from Kansas to Belgium have braved a pandemic and lockdowns to visit our city[,] and the Big Apple has repaid their love with violent crime.  The latest victim is Chris Ruby of Kansas City, who came into town as part of his 2021 goal of seeing a baseball game in every stadium.  After taking in a Mets game last week, Ruby was on Eighth Avenue, walking from Penn Station to his hotel, when a stray bullet wounded him.  A week earlier, a young couple and their baby from Belgium were walking in Lower Manhattan when a madman attacked them, slashing all three.  All four victims of these two attacks survived.  Ethan Williams, 20, wasn't so "lucky."  Last October, the Hoosier was sitting on the stoop of his Airbnb in Bushwick when he, too, was hit by a stray bullet.  He died immediately.

I hope you notice the recurring patterns:  A black male sucker-punches an old white person for no reason other than he's black and they're white.  Then the news media (if they mention the story at all) say the perpetrator is obviously suffering from mental illness.  There's never any mention of the possibility that it's a race-motivated hate crime.

The Editor says...
No, these attacks are not happening "around the country."  Most of them are happening in New York City, San Francisco / Oakland, and Houston.  The perpetrators are always black, and the victims are not.

City Council candidate Susan Lee pushed down subway stairs in random attack.  A woman shoved an Asian American City Council candidate down a Manhattan subway staircase in a random attack last week, the candidate told The [New York] Post.  Candidate Susan Lee said she was in the stairwell at the Oculus subway station when she spotted the woman staring at her.  "You know she has this mischievous look on her face, and I was just thinking like, 'Oh gosh, this isn't good,'" Lee, 42, recalled of the March 17 incident.  "She pushed me," she said, adding that she grabbed the handrail to brace herself.  The council candidate said she isn't sure if the woman, who appeared to be homeless, picked on her because of her race or simply because she was alone and an easy target.

The Editor says...
These incidents are almost always reported as random attacks, yet the perpetrators are always black and the victims are always white or Asian.  That's not random.

A New Crime Wave — and What to Do About It.  New York City in 2020 experienced an unprecedented one-year increase in homicides and shootings.  Through December 27, 2020, the number of murders was up 41 percent from 2019 and 53 percent from 2018.  Shooting victims were up 103 percent from 2019 and 109 percent from 2018; shooting incidents rose 97 percent and 104 percent.  In gang-ridden precincts, the spike was even more startling.  In Brooklyn's Brownsville and Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhoods, there were 170 percent more shooting victims in 2020 than in 2019 and 151 percent more shooting incidents.  Murder was up 94 percent in these parts of Brooklyn.  It wasn't just gang areas that were afflicted.  On December 29, a roving pack of young bicyclists in midtown Manhattan attacked a BMW, smashing a bike on top of the car and jumping on its windshield.  The same group went after a cab minutes later.  Office workers in the area have been chased by similar flash mobs.  The 2020 increase is actually worse than the annual numbers suggest.

NYC, NYPD to battle hate crimes against Asian American community.  New York City has renewed their focus and effort in preventing hate crimes against the Asian American community following an uptick in attacks.  "Every community suffered, but there's been a particular pain, a particular horrible challenge faced by the Asian American community because on top of all the suffering from the coronavirus itself, on top of losing loved ones, losing businesses, people have had to confront horrible discrimination and hatred," Mayor Bill de Blasio said during his Tuesday briefing.

The Editor says...
Yes, please tell us all about the "hate crimes against the Asian American community."  Who were the perpetrators?  What do all the perpetrators have in common?

Soaring crime is killing NYC's subway system.  Two more straphangers met their gruesome end on Gotham's subways over the weekend, bringing the transit-murder total in just over a year to eight.  Before 2020 and 2021, it took five years for eight murders to occur on transit — and that was with much higher ridership.  "The events of the last 24 hours are horrifying," says acting New York City Transit boss Sarah Feinberg.  Yes, indeed.  The latest victims are a 44-year-old woman and an adult man, stabbed to death by an apparent stranger on two separate A trains.  Two others were assaulted in the same 24 hours, possibly by the same attacker.  It's just dumb luck that even more people haven't died.  A day before the two murders, a teenage boy was the most recent near-victim, tumbling to the tracks during a violent robbery.  Over the previous week, almost a dozen people fell prey to various slashings and pushings.

'A-Train Ripper' busted, still covered in blood, in knife attacks on NYC subway.  The "A-train Ripper" is in custody, police confirmed Sunday [2/14/2021].  The knife-wielding madman was wanted in a gruesome subway spree that left two homeless people dead and two others slashed along the A train line, and was nabbed in Upper Manhattan on Saturday, law-enforcement sources said.  His shoes were still splattered with his victims' blood when he was taken into custody — and he was still in possession of the bloody knife, one source added.  The yet-named suspect was in custody at the 34th Precinct in Washington Heights on Saturday, sources said.  Police said Sunday that he has since been transferred from the precinct, although they wouldn't say where.

'A-Train Ripper' identified as Rigoberto Lopez, homeless man from Brooklyn.  The "A-Train Ripper" was identified Sunday [2/14/2021] as a 21-year-old homeless man who has been previously arrested at least four times — including for allegedly assaulting a cop and his own father.  Rigoberto Lopez — who has been hospitalized at least twice for mental issues — allegedly confessed to NYPD cops that he launched the violent weekend subway spree that left a man and woman dead and two men wounded, authorities said.  "I'm not going to get into motive, but what I can tell you is they were all unprovoked attacks," NYPD Chief Brian McGee, commanding officer of Manhattan North Patrol, told reporters at a briefing Sunday.  "The victims had nothing, didn't initiate anything."  Lopez — who lives in a shelter in Boerum Hill, Brooklyn — had previously "been removed to the hospital two times for, I'll say, mental illness," McGee said.

Mentally ill homeless man confessed to all four unprovoked attacks in NYC A-train subway stabbing spree: sources.  A homeless man with a history of mental illness was charged Sunday with a grisly stabbing spree on the A train line that left two people dead and two others wounded — and the city gripped with fear.  Rigoberto Astwood Lopez, 21, was nabbed around 6:15 p.m. Saturday at W. 186th St. and Audubon Ave. in Washington Heights after hundreds of cops were deployed to keep the public safe from the mystery killer.  He confessed to all four unprovoked attacks, sources said.  Cops charged Lopez with murder and attempted murder Sunday afternoon [2/14/2021].

Two people found fatally stabbed on separate NYC subway trains.  Two people were fatally stabbed at opposite ends of the A train overnight, and cops are probing whether the terrifying bloodbath is the work of a single attacker.  The first victim, an apparently homeless man, was discovered at 11:20 p.m. Friday [2/12/2021] at Mott Avenue and Beach 22nd Street Station in Queens, with multiple stab wounds in the neck and torso, according to cops, who said the unidentified man was declared dead at the scene.  About two hours later, a woman with multiple stab wounds was found at the A train station at West 207 Street and Broadway in Inwood, cops said.  The 44-year-old woman was taken to New York Presbyterian-Allen Hospital, where she was declared dead, according to authorities.

Two stabbed dead, two wounded on separate A trains across New York City in gory 14-hour rampage by deranged spree killer.  A knife-wielding homeless killer savagely executed two helpless victims and wounded two more as he carved a gory path in a 14-hour subway stabbing spree on the A train line from Manhattan to Queens, police said Saturday [2/13/2021].  Police pressed a desperate search for the suspect Saturday night in the gruesome and unprovoked attacks on a quartet of homeless victims.  "There is small army of detectives and investigators working all this night throughout New York City," said NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea.

Calls for more cops on NYC subway grow louder following A train carnage.  The outcry for more cops on city subways reached a fever pitch Saturday [2/13/2021] in the wake of a killer's rampage on the A line.  And the NYPD appeared to be listening, announcing at least 500 more officers would be on patrol underground by Monday.  Shell-shocked riders and angry officials pulled no punches in demanding safer subways, as a massive manhunt got underway for a lone madman believed to be responsible for fatally stabbing two homeless people and slashing two others in a 14-hour span Friday and Saturday.  Shaken straphangers at the A train's Far Rockaway Mott Avenue station called for stepped-up security, including increased patrols and even metal detectors.

Man stabbed in Manhattan subway station in latest unprovoked attack.  A Queens man's offer to escort his girlfriend home from her restaurant job almost cost him his life.  Construction worker Gino Delacruz-Rodriguez, while waiting for a Bronx-bound No. 1 train at the Christopher St. station Thursday night [2/11/2021], was stabbed in the stomach by a stranger as his girlfriend watched in horror.  "It just happened out of nowhere," said girlfriend Julia Calel on Friday about the West Village attack.  "The guy did nothing, said nothing," before he stabbed the victim, she said.  The 33-year-old Peruvian immigrant was fast asleep Friday afternoon at the couple's Corona home, hours after being discharged from the hospital.

'So many lives were altered by this man': A rap sheet by age 11 and four arrests by age 16 for imprisoned Brooklyn madman.  Trigga Trey, precocious and predatory, left behind a trail of terror when he went to prison just weeks after his 17th birthday.  Born Tevin Williams in September 1995, the man with the menacing alias is currently behind bars for the last of his violent crimes in a horrifying spree that began with his arrest as an 11-year-old child in Brooklyn.  Only his tender age spared Williams from jail when he plunged a sharpened piece of molding into the skull of 12-year-old Stevenson Celius kid back in 2007, intent on stealing the victim's change from the purchase of a bag of potato chips.  Celius spent the next 13 years in long-term hospital care, paralyzed and unable to communicate after the wood severed his brain stem.

The Editor says...
"His tender age" wouldn't be a viable defense if I served on his jury.  If a young man is old enough to commit attempted murder or aggravated robbery with a homemade weapon, he's old enough to sit in the electric chair.  If he genuinely doesn't know right from wrong at the age of eleven, he should be locked up until he learns the difference.

Senior citizen knocked to ground, kicked by Manhattan bus passenger, as attacker's small child watches.  A nasty New York nanny with a child in tow pushed a 73-year-old woman down in the snow and kicked her because the peeved passenger didn't have enough room to squeeze by as she was getting off a Manhattan bus, cops said Wednesday [2/10/2021].  The victim said she was trying to negotiate a narrow path in the snow at W. 57th St. near Eighth Ave. on Feb. 3 when an impatient passenger exiting the bus pushed her and kicked her several times before running off with the child.  The senior citizen said the driver had stopped the bus shortly after 11 a.m. to wait for her, and was allowing her to board from the back to keep her from having to walk to the front along the slippery ice and snow with her cane.

Unhinged man with history of subway violence shoves stranger onto tracks in Manhattan: cops.  A mentally ill man with a history of arrests in the subway, including for threatening an MTA employee with a pipe, has been grabbed by police again — this time for shoving a stranger onto the tracks, officials said Wednesday [2/3/2021].  Calvin Wilson is accused of pushing the 26-year-old victim off the A/C platform at the Fulton St. station in lower Manhattan about 3:40 p.m. Tuesday [2/2/2021].  The attack was unprovoked, officials said.  The victim managed to get back onto the platform before a train arrived in the station, suffering minor injuries to his right ankle, leg and hand, officials said.

Man randomly pushes straphanger onto NYC subway tracks in latest attack.  An unhinged man randomly shoved a straphanger onto the tracks in a Lower Manhattan subway station this week — the latest in a spate of similar incidents that Commissioner Dermot Shea called "too common."  The 26-year-old victim was standing on the northbound platform at the Fulton Street/Broadway-Nassau station around 3:40 p.m. Tuesday when the attacker suddenly shoved him, propelling him onto the tracks, cops said.  The victim suffered non-life-threatening ankle, leg and hand injuries.  It was unclear if a train was pulling in at the time.  The alleged attacker, Calvin Wilson, 38, was quickly arrested after he fled to the street, Shea said in a NY1 interview Wednesday morning [2/3/2021].

NYC subway shove victim says she 'literally saw nothing' before attack.  The woman who was randomly shoved into a moving train in Manhattan this week said she "literally saw nothing" before the sudden attack.  Alexandra Sheehan, 31, of East Meadow, Long Island, was at the Lexington Avenue/59th Street station around 5:40 p.m. Tuesday, when Linda Chavez, 33, of Queens, suddenly pushed her as a 6 train rolled in, authorities said.  "I literally saw nothing before," Sheehan told the Post in an exclusive interview as she stood near the door of her home Wednesday.  "I just got pushed as the train was pulling in."  Sheehan struck the first train car and fell back onto the platform, suffering an arm injury, police said.

NYPD releases video of attackers who beat and stripped man in Chinatown.  A 26-year-old man had just gotten off a bus from Atlanta when he was attacked by a group of about a dozen suspects who beat him, cut him several times and stole his clothes, including his underwear, cops said Sunday [1/24/2021].  The group of males and females began assaulting the victim around 11:30 a.m.  Friday near Canal and Allen streets in Manhattan, cutting him with an unknown object, police said.  Police released video of the suspects and are seeking witnesses.  The attackers took the man's cell phone and removed his pants, underwear and shoes.  "They attacked him as soon as he got off the bus from Atlanta," a police source said.

Naked Man Attacks Riders at NYC Station, Dies From Electrocution Amid Brawl:  NYPD.  Cell phone video shows a naked man who appears to be emotionally disturbed inside the subway station.  Police say that man approaches a stranger and, unprovoked, begins to attack him before pushing him onto the tracks. [...] "Just a little shaken because I have a daughter and I always tell her to be aware of her surroundings," the witness said.  They say they've seen many emotionally disturbed people in the subway system and wish they were getting the help they need.

Subway assault victim 'stunned' and 'scared' after assailant's release.  One of at least five victims of a string of attacks at a Brooklyn subway stop ripped the NYPD Monday for what she believes is a failure to keep women who use the station safe.  "I was stunned that this had happened so many times.  I didn't see any police stationed there.  There were no flyers," Bianca Fortis said Monday, a week after the attack in East Williamsburg's Morgan Ave. station.  The attack left the 32-year-old journalist with multiple bruises on her face, shoulder and chest.  On Saturday [1/2/2021], another woman was attacked at the same location — bringing the total number of police-reported incidents there to five.  "There's not enough security," Fortis told The [New York] Post.  "After it happened the first time, or certainly the second, there should have been more information.  Even just a flyer saying be on alert."

Man busted for series of attacks on women in NYC subway station.  A [black] man suspected in a string of random assaults on [white] women at a Brooklyn subway station was arrested Tuesday [1/5/2021] and charged with a slew of hate crimes, authorities said.  Khari Covington, 29, is accused of attacking nine women in separate instances in East Williamsburg since last August, according to police.  Seven of the alleged assaults occurred in transit — mainly at the Morgan Avenue subway station — while two were committed nearby on street level, police said.  Covington targeted light-skinned women, sources said.

The Editor says...
Hmmm...  He "targeted light-skinned women."  Is that a gentle way of saying he's a violent racist, and that he has committed a number of racially-motivated hate crimes?

Khari Covington
Man, 29, is charged with hate crimes for 'beating nine light-skinned women in random attacks over six weeks' in a New York City subway station.  A man has been arrested after carrying out a suspected string of random assaults on 'light-skinned' women at a Brooklyn subway station.  Khari Covington, 29, was arrested and charged with a slew of hate crimes on Tuesday [1/5/2021].  He is accused of attacking nine women on separate occasions in East Williamsburg since last August.  Seven of the alleged assaults occurred within the Morgan Avenue subway station.  Two other assaults happened on the streets above.  Covington lives at a homeless shelter two blocks from the train station.


Bat-wielding man injures multiple people in NYC during crazy crime spree.  A crazed man left 10 people injured and a wild trail of destruction behind him during a Manhattan rampage Saturday night that involved subway assaults, street beat-downs and two carjackings, according to cops and police sources.  Suspect Bryan Thompson, 43, of Atlantic City, NJ, was wielding what his victims said was everything from a bat to tree branch to wooden clubs — or all of the above at various times — as he raged from Tribeca to Chelsea for less than an hour, police and sources said.  "He was a one-man crime spree," a police source said.  Thompson allegedly started his attacks in a subway platform in Tribeca at around 6:35 p.m.  He was in the station at Varick and Canal streets when he battered at least three people — a 39-year-old woman, 18-year-old Manhattan man and 57-year-old guy — over the head "with a wooden weapon" in "unprovoked" attacks on the uptown No. 2 train platform, the NYPD said.

How does the New York Post writer know with any certainty that the attacker was "crazed?"  Maybe he's just violent.  It would be informative to know if the perpetrator is black and all the victims are white, but it's too much to expect the newspapers to provide that kind of detail any more.

Bright yellow jacket was undoing of suspect in NYC rape:  NYPD sources.  A homeless man was busted Saturday for the horrific New Year's Eve strangulation rape by a bogus deliveryman, thanks to Manhattan cops who spotted a jaywalker in a canary yellow jacket — the same distinctive color worn by the attacker, sources told The [New York] Post.  Public Safety Officers with the 13th Precinct were sitting in a police car near the location of the rape at East 30th Street and Third Avenue in Kip's Bay at 1 a.m., when a man in a puffy yellow jacket fitting the rapist's description walked right in front of them, sources said.  They recognized him from surveillance photos, sources said after the arrest of Elijah Kelly, 23, who lived at the nearby and notorious 30th Street Men's Shelter next to Bellevue Hospital.

The 15-year old, who would likely object to being called a boy, is not being identified because he's black, and you might inadvertently get the idea that the overwhelming majority of the violent crime in New York City is committed by young black men.

NYC has freed thousands of gun suspects this year as shootings soar:  NYPD.  Nearly 90 percent of suspects arrested on gun charges this year are back on the streets, which the NYPD says has fueled a historic spike in shootings that have left more than 1,756 dead or wounded.  About 3,345 of the 3,793 perps arrested between Jan. 1 and Nov. 30 for firearms crimes — 88 percent — were let go, according to department data.  Just 450 remain in jail, the NYPD told The [New York] Post.  Some of the suspects posted bail, but judges were required to release others under new reform laws that prohibit them from setting monetary bail on some gun-possession cases.  The crime became ineligible for bail in most circumstances under the Jan. 1 law changes, which mandate judges to release collared suspects, with no money down, on hundreds of charges considered "non-violent."  The NYPD has repeatedly blamed this year's stunning 96-percent surge in shootings on the loosened bail laws and early release of prisoners due to COVID concerns.

It shouldn't be too difficult to locate either of the electronic devices.  The radio is useless to them:  Any and every attempted use of the radio is a costly FCC violation, and if you use a stolen government radio, you will get caught.  The tablet is also useless, because it can be located, or at least identified, when it goes on the internet, or when it is brought in for service.

Stealing Soho:  Luxury retailers terrorized by shoplifting mobs.  Bands of shoplifters are terrorizing Soho's high-end boutiques, lifting hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of designer merchandise, and in some cases, threatening security guards to keep quiet — or be labeled racist, The [New York] Post has learned.  The disturbing pattern began in late May during the riots that rocked the city in the wake of the George Floyd police custody death.  High-end Celine was looted of $1.5 million in merchandise then, and the blatant thievery continues "every week" in ritzy stores such as Prada, Moncler, Dior and Balenciaga, one plugged-in local said.  "This is happening every week.  Walk around Soho on Wooster Street and Greene Street, Mercer Street. ... You have huge bouncers out there trying to deter hit-and-run activity," the source, a restaurateur, said.  But in some cases, the thieves are given carte blanche to steal.

Saboteur Deliberately Derails NYC Subway Train.  So this guy tried to kill everyone on the subway and did a huge amount of destruction.  Strange that he was free on the streets — you'd think a lunatic like this would have been arrested for similar prior crimes.  Well, of course, he was:  He had just been arrested for throwing metal at the window of an MTA bus.  He was released without bail, in accordance with Red Bill's "reforms."  A husband of one of the victims of this sabotage raged:  "It's craziness!  This guy was arrested for this kind of thing weeks ago.  He should have stayed inside.  He is dangerous to society!"  No, it's not craziness.  It's leftwing governance.

Covid-19, BLM protests and a liberal mayor are turning the city into a no-go zone as murders skyrocket, shops are looted.  Two bullet-ridden bodies lay sprawled on bloodstained concrete steps.  Alongside, relatives of the victims are wailing and collapse to the ground.  In another part of the city, a gang of youths use spray paint to disable security cameras before robbing a corner store.  Later, video footage captures police officers sitting helplessly in their patrol car as a baying crowd hurls glass bottles at them.  This is lawless New York — a city that was once America's glittering crown jewel but which risks descending into mob rule.  Murder figures have skyrocketed and a combination of the coronavirus pandemic, Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests and weak political leadership is in danger of achieving what Osama Bin Laden never could: bringing the Big Apple to its knees.

Bottles And Trash Thrown At NYPD Responding To Crimes.  This story is from the weekend, but I wanted to circle back to it as it seems to be emblematic of what's going on in New York City these days in terms of the ability of the police to maintain order in the Big Apple.  Early Sunday morning, the police were dispatched to a scene were gunfire was reported.  Upon arriving at the Harlem neighborhood where the report originated, they were greeted by the sight of hundreds of people having some sort of party in the streets.  But rather than helping the officers look for any possible shooter in the vicinity, dozens of partygoers began pelting the police cruisers with rocks, bottles and garbage.  The cops were so badly outnumbered that there was virtually nothing they could do to address the original report.

Suspects released without bail after shocking attacks on Jews.  Suspects arrested in last week's spree of eight anti-Semitic attacks are being quickly released right back into the neighborhoods they terrorized thanks to "bail reform" legislation — which doesn't even take effect until Jan. 1.  The most recent case of revolving-door justice came Saturday morning, with the release, with no bail, of a woman charged with punching and cursing at three Orthodox women, ages 22, 26 and 31, in Crown Heights, Brooklyn at dawn the day before.  The accused assailant, Tiffany Harris, was hauled in handcuffs before a Brooklyn judge on 21 menacing, harassment and attempted assault charges.

[...] One local report is claiming that an African American man armed with a machete stabbed at least five people after entering the home.  Two of the victims are said to be in critical condition.

5 People Stabbed at Rabbi's Home in Rockland County, NY: Police.  Authorities say five people were stabbed at a rabbi's home late Saturday night in Monsey, New York, the latest and most violent in a string of anti-semitic attacks in the greater New York City area in the last few days.  Ramapo Police Chief Brad Weidel said the suspected attacker entered the residence around 10 p.m. armed with a knife.  Saturday was the seventh night of Hanukkah and was being widely observed in Monsey, a hamlet that is home to thousands of Orthodox Jews.  There were as many as 70 people in the rabbi's home at the time of the attack. [...] By midnight, the suspect was located in Harlem and taken into custody by the NYPD.

Only the Jerusalem Post dares to include the forbidden adjective:

When Kids Kill.  The brutal murder of Tessa Majors, an 18-year-old college student, attacked as she walked through Morningside Park in Manhattan, has chilled New Yorkers.  According to news accounts, Majors was robbed and stabbed by three youths who accosted her, put her in a headlock, and emptied her pockets, then slashed her repeatedly with a four-inch knife blade.  Found by police, she was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where she died.  The prime suspects are three teenage boys, ages 13 and 14 — the third hasn't yet been apprehended — who confessed to seeking robbery victims in the park.  This horrible incident touches two raw nerves:  one dealing with criminal responsibility and punishment for adolescents, the other with fears of a new crime wave.

Israeli student is subjected to sickening, foul-mouthed anti-Semitic tirade on New York subway.  An Israeli Jewish student has been subjected to harrowing anti-Semitic abuse on the New York subway, being called a 'f***ing stinkin' a** Jew'.  Lihi Aharon was riding the train from Manhattan to Brooklyn when a fellow passenger launched the sickening anti-Semitic tirade.  'Allahu akbar,' she shouted at Aharon, 'It's in the Quran, where they curse the serpent Jew, you wouldn't believe. [...]'

Why No 'White Lives Matter'?  Tessa Majors, a young woman "not of color," was unable to complete her first semester at Barnard University in New York City.  She was fatally stabbed in Morningside Park adjacent to the university, collapsing as she left the park — a place referred to over the years as "Muggingside Park."  At least one "person of color," all of thirteen years old, has been arrested.  Although it is unclear whether he participated in the murder, he has implicated others who, like him, have barely reached their teen years.  Three days earlier, a black man and a black woman, members of a virulently anti-Semitic sect, the black Hebrew Israelites, went on a killing spree in a kosher market in Jersey City.  Six people died, including a police officer.  Last week's incidents have one obvious thing in common — both involved blacks murdering whites.

Serial subway perv busted for 63rd time — just a month after prison release.  An incorrigible subway perv racked up his 36th arrest last week for allegedly groping a female straphanger — just over a month after completing an 11-year prison stint for similar crimes, authorities said Monday.  Freddie Johnson, 61, allegedly ground his groin against a 27-year-old woman's rear aboard a 5 train rumbling northbound near Lower Manhattan's Fulton Street on Dec. 11, according to cops.  The skeeved straphanger tried to move elsewhere in the car, but Johnson allegedly followed her, [...]

NYC maniac causes mayhem, randomly slugs woman in the face.  Cops are looking for a maniac who launched a string of violent outbursts Monday on the Upper East Side — including a random slugging of a woman looking at her cellphone.  The suspect can be seen on surveillance video gingerly walking on East 85th Street near Park Avenue around 11 a.m. when he suddenly strikes the 21-year-old woman in the face without notice, according to police.  The victim suffered bruising and swelling to the face but refused medical attention.  The suspect simply walked away.

New York Times puts bad light on murdered Barnard teen and exculpates the city.  The disturbingly horrible stabbing murder of Barnard freshman Tessa Majors over a cheap robbery by one-to-three thugs is an awful story.  The victim was an 18 year old female freshman, a very young-looking teenager, walking to campus around 7 or 8 p.m. when it would have been dark. [...] Unpopular Mayor Bill de Blasio, who's excused these kinds of crimes in the past has made the right noises, but it remains to be seen if he's serious.  But the Times seems to be eager to minimize the crime, cast a negative light on the victim, and exculpate the now-socialist city. [...] In any case, the Times has a big problem now that the reality of blue-city politics has hit New York in a dramatic turnaround from the Giuliani era — kids are now being murdered.  That's why they're doing their best within decency to put the victim down and insist that the city remains safe even with crime now a free for all in New York.

College student, 18, is beaten and stabbed to death in savage mugging by a 'group of thugs' while walking in a park near her Manhattan campus.  Police are questioning two teenage boys with their parents present in connection with the murder stabbing of an 18-year-old college student who was stabbed to death on Wednesday night [12/11/2019] in a savage mugging. [...] A 16-year-old boy, who police sources described as a known robbery suspect, was initially taken into custody from a nearby housing project not long after the attack but he was released without charge on Thursday.  He was reportedly wearing a green jacket that was similar to one that a witness claimed one of Tessa's attackers was wearing.  There was also a trail of blood leading into his apartment which police sources described as a 'hub of criminal activity'.

Woman whacks elderly subway preacher with high heels: video.  A crazed woman wielding a stiletto heel and shouting "f*** your God" bashed an elderly singing subway preacher in the head on a train in Manhattan, according to disturbing video released Friday [11/1/2019].  The 79-year-old victim was preaching aboard a southbound No. 2 train near the 42nd Street-Times Square station at around 10 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 25, when the woman removed her high heel and menaced him with it as if it were a weapon, according to cops and video of the incident.  The 30-something woman — who was dressed in a beige fur coat, black pants and a bright red wig — is seen in the footage waving the shoe at the cowering man and shouting at him.

The Editor says...
The writer of the New York Post article above is very generous to call the perpetrator "crazed," rather than calling her "just another perpetually angry black woman on the subway who thinks she can get away with anything."

NBC staffer 'pummeled' in Midtown laughs off attack: 'I didn't go down'.  A tough-as-nails 72-year-old NBC production director was pummeled by a pack of brutes in Midtown — but laughed off the attack by telling The [New York] Post, "I didn't go down."  The Jersey man, John Sullivan, was walking on Sixth Avenue near West 43rd Street on his way to work at 30 Rock around 2:20 a.m. Monday [10/14/2019] when eight men surrounded him. [...] It was unclear what caused the men to attack Sullivan, who has worked on "Saturday Night Live" and "The Tonight Show" — but the Vietnam vet was in good spirits recalling the encounter Tuesday [10/15/2019].

The Editor says...
No it is not "unclear what caused the men to attack Sullivan."  They're black, and he's white.  They outnumbered him 8-to-1.  He's three times as old as any one of them.  It's no mystery at all.  They're godless, fatherless cowards, roaming the streets in packs at 2:20 a.m.  That's just what they do.

The Hate-Crime Spike in New York City Has Nothing to Do with White Supremacy.  None of the suspects in any of the New York City anti-Jewish crimes against persons had any previous arrests for hate crimes or any background in hate-related activities, organized or otherwise.  Armin Rosen pointed out that these spurious suggestions were made "despite clear evidence that ... many of the attacks are being carried out by people of color with no ties to the politics of white supremacy."  Indeed, in 2017 and 2018, 37 blacks compared with 46 whites were arrested for anti-Jewish hate crimes, the majority of which were for property vandalism and harassment — statistics consistent with national data.

There Have Been Four Anti-Semitic Incidents In One Week In New York City.  A Brooklyn Jewish man was beaten with his own belt outside of a synagogue by two individuals Saturday [8/31/2019], representing one of four alleged anti-Semitic incidents in the NYC area in just one week.  The two men — who were reportedly drinking outside the synagogue — threw the Jewish man to the ground, removed his belt and began wailing on him with it.  Former New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind claimed the attackers called the man a "F***ing Jew" during the attack, but the NYPD could not confirm this, according to a News 12 Brooklyn report. [...] But, similar attacks seem to be nothing new in what Mayor Bill de Blasio refers to as the "safest big city in America."

De Blasio's whitewashing on anti-Semitism.  Here's what's been happening in New York City over the past year:  Jews who are visibly Jewish have been getting assaulted in record numbers.  We've seen numerous videos of these assaults, in which a bearded man in a yarmulke is smashed in the head or knocked down or otherwise physically set upon by one or two African-American men.

Mystery Assailants Of Jewish Men In Brooklyn Still At Large.  Last week we looked at the story of a Hasidic Jewish man who was attacked in Brooklyn.  The assailant fled, but there was security camera video of the attack available.  As it turns out, however, there was another attack in the same neighborhood on another Jewish victim.  That man was seriously injured and may have fallen prey to the same group of young men.  And once again, cameras captured the alleged assailants quite clearly.  And yet they remain on the loose.

Brutal Subway Attack On Elderly Woman Reveals Something Very Wrong With America.  I've never seen such violence against an elderly person.  She has no recourse.  No way of defending herself.  Her head bounces off his large boot.  Watching the video, I felt as though I was witnessing a Nazi soldier violently assaulting a helpless Jew.  It stings with the ugliness of the pogroms.  Additionally disturbing is the fact that no one helps her.

The Editor says...
Notice that there was no attempt on the part of the perpetrator to settle the dispute verbally or negotiate a peaceful settlement.  The assailant didn't like (what he perceived as) being stared at.  So badly was he offended, or his male dominance threatened, that he met the stare with physical aggression.  That's exactly the behavior one would expect in the gorilla cage at the zoo.

Slash City.  In his 1951 poem "Subway Rush Hour," the Harlem Renaissance writer Langston Hughes sketched a portrait of an underground world, where people of all colors, ethnicities, and backgrounds are packed so tightly together that there's "no room for fear."  Late last week — in an effort to convince New Yorkers that the subways are safe despite a rash of recent stabbings and slashings on the transit system — NYPD commissioner Bill Bratton made a similar point.  "It's amazing anybody can assault anybody because you can't really move on some of those cars," he said.  Bratton's attempts at reassurance clash with the growing sense among New Yorkers that the city's celebrated public-safety gains are increasingly under threat.  Ten people have been slashed or stabbed so far this year on the subways.  Overall, such crimes are up nearly 20 percent.  "I'll chop you up right on this f---ing train!" 37-year-old Ras Alula Nagarit allegedly yelled at two women after bumping into them on a crowded platform in Brooklyn.

Bratton under fire for suggesting women use 'buddy system' to prevent rapes in cabs.  City pols are hitting Police Commissioner Bill Bratton for telling women to use the "buddy system" to guard against rapes in cabs.  "It is completely inappropriate to say that young women should buddy up when getting into a cab or going home late at night," Councilwoman Laurie Cumbo (D-Brooklyn) said at a press conference outside City Hall.  "What I want from my commissioner of the NYPD is to say that he's going to do a full crackdown," she said.  "We want to make sure that taxi cab drivers are put on notice that this type of behavior will not be tolerated, that we are going to be enforcing laws, that there will be civil and serious penalties coming down on any driver that disrespects, that rapes, that sexually assaults.  I want a commissioner who's going to come out and is going to state that, not tell us as women that we need to get a buddy system."

Authorities Ignoring another Black-on-white 'Hate Crime'.  Like the three monkeys who see, hear and speak no evil, our authorities seem intent on ignoring the true nature of yet another black-on-white racial attack.  In the New York City subway this past Sunday, 29-year-old Jason Fordell was attacked by a group of black men who taunted him for being white.  Yet NYC police "are unsure" if the incident is a bias crime.  The problem started when Fordell transferred to a crowded 4 train at 42nd street, where he encountered four black men who began harassing him.

Teen crews linked to 40 percent of NYC shootings.  Police say these groups, clustered around a particular block or housing project, are responsible for about 40 percent of the city's shootings, with most of that violence stemming from the smallest of disses on the street, Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.  "It's like belonging to an evil fraternity," said Inspector Kevin Catalina, commander of the New York Police Department's gang division.  "A lot of it is driven by nothing:  A dispute over a girl or a wrong look or a perceived slight."  The trend of smaller, younger crews has also been seen in Chicago and Northeast cities over the last few years as police have cracked down on bigger, more traditional gangs, experts said.

Ulysses S. Grant and Manhattanville houses aiming to arrest some of the over 100 people indicted on conspiracy charges stemming from gang violence in the area.

Wilding for profit.  The [New York] Post has always been skeptical of the belated claim by serial killer Matias Reyes claim that he alone raped jogger Trisha Meili.  Under Mike Bloomberg, the city resisted intense political pressure to settle the five's lawsuit — with good reason.  There remains strong evidence that, as famed anti-corruption prosecutor Michael Armstrong found in his review of the case, the five "more likely than not" took part in the jogger attack.  There was overwhelming evidence they'd been in the park that night, engaged in a series of "wilding" assaults.

CBS News successfully avoids using the word "black" in this article about three black men beating up a randomly-selected white woman.

Man arrested in subway shoving that killed Bronx man is suspected in another case, has long rap sheet.  Kevin Darden, a career criminal with 30 arrests in 15 years, was the target of a massive police search as a 'person of interest' in the Sunday death of Wai Keun Kwok, who was shoved by a deranged assailant into the path of a D train at the 167th St. station in the Bronx.  Darden's rap sheet includes an arrest for trying to burn down his own brother's house.

Bloods gang member 'sucker-punches cop' during anti-police protest.  Nearly a week after firebrand Brooklyn Councilman Jumaane Williams tweeted his support for members of the Bloods to join anti-cop protests, a member of the violent gang took him up on the offer — and sucker-punched an NYPD officer at a Harlem rally.  Jonathan Allen slugged Deputy Inspector Andrew Capul in the face, ambushing him from behind Thursday [12/11/2014] as the police official, dressed in uniform, talked to protesters near West 125th Street at the Adam Clayton Powell State Office Building around 9:30 p.m., police said.

Black crime in St. Louis

Note:  Ferguson is on another page.

Disturbing new details emerge on St. Louis black female judge who let "killer driver" go free on $20k bond.  By now, you might have heard the horrific news:  a mother and daughter were tragically killed in a crosswalk, leaving a Drake concert in St. Louis.  They were hit by a Jeep speeding at about 70 mph as they were exiting the venue.  The driver, identified as Monte Henderson, has shockingly been released on bond.  This has sparked a flood of questions about the judge who decided to let this alleged perpetrator walk free on just a $20,000 bond.  The revelations about this judge are likely to stir up anger and calls for her immediate removal from the bench.  The whole situation is deeply troubling. [...] The truth of the matter is that she represents the typical left-leaning "activist judge," who prioritized the Soros-backed "soft on crime" agenda over common-sense law enforcement and the safety of citizens from dangerous lunatics.

The Editor says...
The perpetrator is black, the judge is black, and the victims were white.  That's the story.  If the colors were reversed, there would be rioting in the streets.

Democrat-Run St. Louis Ranked Most Dangerous City in America.  The safest and most dangerous cities in America have been ranked following WalletHub's assessment of over 180 cities.  The Daily Mail reported Sunday that the company assessed the cities "across 41 indicators of safety."  According to WalletHub, "Our data set ranges from traffic fatalities per capita and assaults per capita to the unemployment rate and the percentage of the population that is insured."  Each place was graded regarding home and community safety, natural disaster risk, and financial safety, with the safest place in the United States being Nashua, New Hampshire.

It's not racism that's destroying American communities.  Democrats know what's destroying inner-city communities:  Systemic racism (including in prison sentences), the lack of reparations, police violence, the lack of organic groceries, and AR-15s.  None of this is true, of course, but it's the snake oil they're peddling and, sadly, a lot of people within these inner-city communities seem to buy it because they keep voting for the same old Democrats.  (Maxine Waters, anyone?)  Will Scharf, an Assistant U.S. Attorney who works in the violent crimes unit in St. Louis, Missouri, America's most dangerous city, has a different take on what's going on.  It won't surprise you, of course, to learn that the Democrats are wrong in every respect.

Black Student [Falsely] Claims It Was A White Man Who Was Mass Shooter At St Louis High School.  During TV interviews shortly after the mass shooting at the St Louis high school, a student claimed the shooter was a white man.  The armed former student broke into a St. Louis high school Monday morning warning, "You are all going to die!" before fatally shooting a teacher and a teenage girl, and wounding seven others before police killed him in an exchange of gunfire.  Speaking at a news conference Monday afternoon, police Chief Michael Sack identified the shooter as 19-year-old Orlando Harris, who graduated from the school last year, who also happened to be black.  [Video clip]

The Mainstream Media Suddenly Lost Interest After The Mass Shooter In St. Louis School Shooting Was Identified.  A shooting at a high school in St. Louis left three students dead and six injured after a man approached the school and tried to get inside.  According to the Associated Press, officers responded quickly after security grew concerned about the gunman's attempts to get into the school.  Orlando Deshawn Harris identified as St Louis H.S gunman who shot dead teacher, Jean Kirk Kuczka and teen student, Alexandra 'Alex' Bell at Central VPA high school.  Had mental issues.  Facebook wall plastered with guns and weapons and cash. [...] The mainstream media suddenly lost interest in this shooting just as his identity was released!

Brawl At St. Louis Walmart Had People Throwing Items At Each Other.  Ferguson police are now investigating an altercation that broke out inside a Walmart store, which has since gone viral through videos all over social media.  "I've seen some videos on social media, and it's disgraceful.  I'm going to call it like it is," said Ferguson Police Chief Frank McCall.  The video shows chaos in the self-checkout area of the Walmart off West Florissant Avenue.  Multiple people become entangled in a brawl, as some individuals throw objects and set off fire extinguishers.  "You're looking at probably anywhere from 10 to maybe 25 people [involved]," said McCall.

St. Louis Man Convicted in Former Police Captain David Dorn's Murder Sentenced to Life in Prison without Parole.  Retired St. Louis Police Captain David Dorn was murdered in June 2020 outside of Lee's Pawn and Jewelry in North St. Louis City.  The killers then broke in the store and looted it as dozens of cars drove by on Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive.  David Dorn was 77-years-old when he was gunned down by looters.  He lay outside the store bleeding as his death was captured on Facebook Live.  St. Louis Police later arrested and charged 24-year-old Stephan Cannon with first-degree murder for the death of retired Police Captain David Dorn.  Cannon once received a 7-year sentence but didn't serve a day in prison.

David Dorn's killer sentenced to life in prison.  A Glasgow Village man convicted of murdering a retired St. Louis Police Captain was sentenced to life in prison Wednesday.  Sentencing for Stephan Cannon was set for 10:00 a.m. in Division 13.  He was sentenced to life without parole for first-degree murder, a combined 15 years in prison for three counts of armed criminal action, 10 years in prison for first-degree robbery, and five years in prison for first-degree burglary.  He will serve these sentences consecutively.  Cannon was found guilty in July.  The jury convicted Cannon after only three hours of deliberations.  77-year-old David Dorn was shot and killed in June 2020.  Dorn had responded to a burglar alarm at a friend's business, Lee's Pawn and Jewelry, on Dr. Martin Luther King Drive.  When he arrived, Dorn confronted looters who had broken into the store in the aftermath of a George Floyd protest.

Democrats espouse diversity but practice racism.  Democrats talk about diversity but their obsession with Critical Race Theory, which is premised on anti-White racism, gives the game away.  What's really happening thanks to their policies is that America's Blacks are falling ever further behind.  Just look at America's inner cities, which are almost entirely Black and Democrat-controlled.  It seems as if depraved indifference is the only thing explaining why 52 Democrat-run cities are more deadly than Ukraine at the height of its war.  Ukraine's civilian death rate was 13.12 per 100,000 people according to the UN. Meanwhile, here are the statistics for the three most deadly cities in America:  St. Louis, Missouri, has a rate of 87 murders per 100,000 residents; Baltimore, Maryland, has a rate of 58.27 murders per 100,000; and New Orleans, has a murder rate of 74.12 per 100,000.  St. Louis's murder rate means that, for every person killed in Ukraine, 6.7 are murdered in St. Louis.  Given that Missouri's average death rate is 12.094 deaths per one hundred thousand for slightly more than 6 million people, living in St. Louis is 719% more deadly than living in the rest of the state.  Another way to understand this is that, for every death in the state at large, seven are murdered inside St. Louis's ghetto.

Thug who murdered retired Police Captain David Dorn has just been found guilty.  I can't believe it took this long, but the thug who murdered retired Police Captain David Dorn during the 2020 riots is going to be spending a long time behind bars.  He was just found guilty of first degree murder and other charges:  [Video clip]  Kevin Corke explains that it only took the jury three hours to come back with a verdict.  I'm glad they did so quickly and I hope this thug spends the rest of his life behind bars.  I doubt he will but he should at least be behind bars for a good long time.

Suspected serial killer is now charged with murder of seventh victim.  A suspected serial killer already charged in six killings in the Kansas City and St. Louis areas has been charged with first-degree murder in a seventh death.  Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced the new murder charge Friday against Perez Deshay Reed.  Baker also charged Reed with one count of armed criminal action and two counts of fraud involving a credit or debit device.  The most recent charges against the 26-year-old Reed, who lived in the St. Louis area, stem from the November 2021 shooting death of Stephon D. Johnson, of Kansas City, Missouri.  The prosecutor's office did not provide Johnson's age.


St. Louis prosecutors would rather believe criminals than police.  Prosecutors and police are supposed to be a team working together to stop crime and bring criminals to justice.  Only that's not what is happening in St. Louis.  There, prosecutors would rather go after the police officers than the criminals.  "It's almost expected that (St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner is) going to blame police every time something happens, and say we didn't provide the right evidence, we didn't do the right thing," said Jay Schroeder, president of the St. Louis Police Officers Association.  In the most recent example of this, the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's Office refused to file charges against an armed robbery suspect who tried to steal a marked police car.  In addition, the suspect, 27-year-old Allen Robinson, allegedly pointed a gun at an officer.

Latest Excuse For Black Gun Violence In St. Louis:  Food Insecurity That Black Urban Farmers Must Solve.  When pointing out black people are behind virtually all the gun violence in St. Louis, the only solution is to blame... food insecurity (despite seven percent of whites living below the poverty line in the city and committing virtually none of the violent crime). [...] Yes, having no access to fresh food means you have an excuse to commit gun violence.

Woman opens fire on family of 6 heading to vacation in road-rage attack MO cops say.  According to police, the family from Tennessee was heading to Kansas City on I-55 in their Nissan Pathfinder on Friday when a Ford Focus started tailgating the SUV.  The Pathfinder driver braked to tell the Focus to slow down or go around, KMOV reported.  The Focus sped up, got next to the Pathfinder, and the passenger, Shanyka Fouche, pulled out a gun and began shooting, police told KMOV.  Bullets flew into the cabin of the family's Pathfinder, striking the dad in his hip, KSDK reported.  One round also hit a tire, popping it, the station reported.  No one else was hurt, and the dad is expected to recover.

Woman charged after allegedly shooting into car with kids inside.  A Tennessee woman is facing numerous charges after allegedly shooting into a car carrying four children in a wild, broad-daylight road-rage incident that left one passenger wounded, according to a report.  Shanyka Fouche, 22, was a passenger in a Ford Fusion driving along I-55 in Jefferson County on Saturday when she opened fire on a Nissan Pathfinder with two adults and four children — ages 2 to 11 — inside, St. Louis Today reported Monday [6/7/2021].  Fouche's own 2-year-old child was in the car with her when she fired the three rounds around 3 p.m., the newspaper reported.  The children in the victim's car were not harmed, but a 32-year-old man in the Pathfinder's passenger seat was struck in the leg.

Democrat Mayor Dooms St. Louis with Pledge to Defund Police as Murders Soar.  I feel zero sympathy for the people of St. Louis.  None.  Just last month, amid a soaring murder rate, the highest murder rate in 50 years, as well as the highest in the country, the idiots of St. Louis still voted to elect a Democrat as mayor, a lunatic named Tishaura Jones who made no secret of her desire to make things worse, much worse.

'Angry, Defiant, Very Violent' Inmates Set Fires, Smash Windows, Throw Chairs, and Clog Toilets at St. Louis Jail.  An uprising at the City Justice Center in downtown St. Louis occurred Saturday morning [2/6/2021].  The events started at about 2:30 a.m. and ended with all inmates being rendered under the control of their jailers by about 10:00 a.m.  That's according to Jimmie Edwards, the St. Louis Director of Public Safety, who spoke about the situation at a news conference later Saturday.  The whole thing started when a "defiant inmate ... who was very, very upset ... got into a scuffle with a correctional officer," Edwards said.  The guard "was then jumped by others," he added.

St. Louis 2020 murder rate hits 50-year high, police chief points to coronavirus pandemic and civil unrest.  The murder rate in St. Louis, Mo. for all of 2020 was higher than it's been in roughly five decades, falling just short of the city's all-time record, according to local reports.  St. Louis' Metropolitan Police Department reported 262 people murdered in 2020 — just five fewer than the record of 267, which was set in 1993.  However, city data show the homicide rate was higher in 2020 because the city's population has declined from more than 395,000 in 1990 to approximately 348,000 in 2000 and 319,000 in 2010.  The city's homicide rate, however, reached 87 murders per 100,000 residents for the year — the highest rate on record since 1970, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.

Saint Louis Hotel Manager Is 7th Murder In 24 Hour Span.  Saint Louis Missouri has encountered a massive spike in homicide violence since the Ferguson riots and protests began.  Last weekend 7 murders took place in a span of 24 hours, and this example below is reflective of how they are being reported.  However, something is just, well, there — visible, on the surface, yet not being discussed.  Take a look at this Daily Mail article and you'll note the victim was shot twice, once in the chest and then again in the head.  It certainly sounds more like an execution within the motive.

'6 murders in 13 hours': Wave of violence hits St. Louis.  St. Louis is suffering through a wave of fatal shootings.  The police chief blames easy access to guns and difficulty prosecuting gun crimes, but also notes that some officers are "distracted" after the waves of protests in the area.

Democrats Jumping the Race-Card Shark.  A rather inconvenient fact, however, is that the only reported act of racial violence so far happened on Tuesday [9/15/2009] on a public school bus in St. Louis and the offenders were black, the victim white.  An apparently unprovoked attack on a high school student took place over — get this — a seat on the bus..  The irony is downright nerve-wrenching.  A black student beat the white student to the cheers of his black classmates and the bus driver supposedly did nothing to intervene.  KKK in reverse?  That's a lot more violence than Rosa Parks got over her seat on the bus.  In fact, Rosa Parks wasn't on the receiving end of anything more than arrogant stares.

Motorist beaten to death by several juveniles with hammers; 2 teens held.  "We're just angry because we're trying to protect our community," said Mirza Nukic, 29, of St. Louis.  "We're just trying to be peaceful."  Nukic was among at least 50 people, mostly, if not all Bosnians, who briefly blocked Gravois Avenue at Itaska Street on Sunday night to protest the killing.  The intersection was near where Zemir Begic, a Bosnian man who moved to St. Louis this year, was attacked by at least three teens with hammers early Sunday [11/30/2014].

The Saint Louis Murder of Zemir Begic — Not Random At All.  [Scroll down]  What's that?  You mean the other white guy whose head was smashed by a group of "unarmed teens" wielding hammers was not the first subject of their collective interest that day? [...] Yes, Zemir Begic, who happens to be white, was not the ONLY target of the five "teens" who happen to be "black".  Indeed, the suspects, and the victims, all appear to hold a similar profile.  Nothing to see here folks, move along, move along.  It's all just a coincidence.

Fatal hammer attack on Bosnian immigrant not racially motivated, St. Louis police say.  A 17-year-old St. Louis man has been charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action in the bludgeoning death of a Bosnian immigrant.  Police say Robert Mitchell along with two other teens, both juveniles, attacked the 32-year-old man with hammers early Sunday [11/30/2014].  He was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Saint Louis Officials Blame Victim Zemir Begic For His Own Brutal Murder.  At approximately midnight on Saturday night [11/29/2014] Seldin Dzananovic, 24, was attacked by a group of black Saint Louis teen thugs wielding hammers.  Mr. Dzananovic was able to escape the attack suffering bruises and scratches.  However, an hour later 32-year-old Zemir Begic would not be so fortunate.  Mr. Begic was brutally murdered by the same teens around 1:30 am.

Bosnian community in St. Louis outraged over fatal hammer attack.  The St. Louis Bosnian community erupted into anger and demonstrations Sunday night after a local man was murdered with hammers Sunday morning.  Two teen males, 15 and 16, were arrested Sunday, and a third, 17, turned himself in to city police headquarters Sunday night in connection to the death of Zemir Begic, 32.

St. Louis' Bosnian community sees hammer murder as hate crime.  Insistence by St. Louis officials that the beating death of a Bosnian man was not a hate crime is being met with skepticism and anger, according to leaders of the city's 70,000-strong Bosnian community, and the victim's brother is calling on authorities to "investigate every possible motive."

Are the media ignoring another St Louis killing?  The murder [of Zemir Begic] has stunned the city's Bosnian community, one of the largest in the US.  On Sunday [11/30/2014] more than 150 residents took to the street to protest what they see as increasing incidents of violence in their neighbourhood.  Given that the attack occurred less than 14 miles from the town of Ferguson, which has been under a bright media spotlight since the August shooting of a black teen by a white police officer, local residents have been quick to draw comparisons.

Off-duty police officer shot multiple times in St. Louis.  An off-duty St. Louis police officer remained in critical condition Saturday [12/20/2014] after being shot multiple times in his personal vehicle by an unknown assailant.  The shooting occurred near the intersection of Breman Avenue and North 25th Street in North St. Louis just before 4 p.m. Friday, a local NBC affiliate reported.

The city with the highest per capita murder rate may not be the one you think.  What is the first city that comes to mind when you think of the city with the highest murder rate?  For me, it's Chicago.  The cities that frequently make the news due to high murder rates and other violent crimes usually include Chicago, New York City, Baltimore, and Philadelphia.  However, a compilation of police data for the month of June from cities with populations of more than 200,000 was put together and the top 31 American cities with the highest murder rates might surprise you.  AH Analytics co-founder Jeff Asher listed the top cities with the highest murder rates per capita (or 100,000 residents) and the city that tops that list is New Orleans.

New Orleans police arrest looters after Ida knocks out power: 'This will not be tolerated'.  Authorities in New Orleans said there have been "numerous" reports of looting as the city grapples with the aftermath of Ida, which swept through the Louisiana coast as a Category 4 hurricane this weekend, causing massive power outages before weakening.  The New Orleans Police Department has deployed anti-looting teams across the city in an effort to protect property, it said.  Police Chief Shaun Ferguson said Monday that several arrests related to the plundering have been made without elaborating further.  "This will not be tolerated," he told reporters.  "We have made those arrests.  This is a state felony and we will be booking you accordingly.

New Orleans is hit by looting in wake of Hurricane Ida — including ATM thieves caught in the act by a drone.  Louisiana residents have reported cases of alleged looting in the wake of Hurricane Ida amid fears crime could spiral in New Orleans and other cities after energy suppliers warned that power will be out for around three weeks as utility crews work to restore more than 2,000 miles of downed energy lines across the state.  New Orleans' mayor also announced that the death toll from the storm has officially risen to two after a driver drowned in their vehicle in the city.  On Sunday, a 60-year-old man died when a tree fell on a home just outside Baton Rouge.  Authorities have not released any information about the identities of the victims.  A group of men were caught by a drone camera trying to rob an ATM machine in the scorched remains of a market in the New Orleans neighborhood of St. Claude.

Deadliest stretch in 6 years in New Orleans.  There have been 19 murders over the past 18 days in New Orleans.  WWL-TV crime analyst Jeff Asher says it's the bloodiest stretch of time in the city since 2010.  "To be having a stretch that is equaling what we had six years ago when murder was much more prevalent is obviously not a positive sign," Asher said.  NOPD Deputy Chief Paul Noel called it a spike in violent crime, not a long term trend.

The Editor says...
How does the Deputy Police Chief know it's just a spike, and not the leading edge of a long-term escalation of crime?

Man shot to death while visiting New Orleans to plan his wedding.  Investigators believe robbery was a motive in the weekend shooting death of a St. Louis man visiting New Orleans to plan his wedding, police chief Michael Harrison said Monday [5/9/2016].

Police investigate whether ex-NFL defensive end Will Smith was killed out of revenge.  Police said Sunday [4/10/2016] they were investigating whether the shooting that killed former New Orleans Saints defensive back Will Smith was a simple case of road rage or part of a more elaborate revenge plot.  Just hours before the deadly confrontation Saturday night, Smith had dinner with former New Orleans police officer Billy Ceravolo and they were pictured together, The New Orleans Advocate reports.  The shooting suspect, 28-year-old Cardell Hayes, had sued the city's police department over a 2005 police shooting that killed his father, naming Ceravolo as one of the defendants.

Will Smith's accused killer settled lawsuit with city over NOPD's fatal shooting of his father.  Cardell Hayes, the man accused of murdering former Saints star Will Smith following a traffic accident late Saturday night (April 9), won a settlement from the city in 2011 to end a federal lawsuit alleging Hayes' mentally ill father was unjustly shot to death by New Orleans police.  The suit against the City of New Orleans and six NOPD officers was filed in June 2006, less than six months after Anthony Hayes was pepper-sprayed and shot nine times by police while brandishing a knife along St.  Charles Avenue in the Garden District.

Will Smith dined with defendant in suspect's lawsuit prior to shooting death.  One of the defendants named in Cardell Hayes' lawsuit against the city of New Orleans in 2005 dined with Will Smith hours before the former Saints defensive end was killed late Saturday night, The Advocate reported Sunday [4/10/2016].  Hayes, 28, has been charged with second-degree murder of Smith.  Bill Ceravolo, one of the defendants in the lawsuit, told The Advocate on Sunday he dined with Smith hours before the shooting.  Ceravolo said he was not at the shooting scene, nor was he aware he was named in the suit.

Australian students shot while visiting New Orleans.  Investigators say the two students were in a bar in the 500 block of Bourbon Street when they asked to buy drugs from an unknown man.  They told detectives they then left the bar, got in a car with another man and headed to the west bank.  Once there, a third man demanded money.  "At some point at the west bank there was an encounter there.  We learned through our investigation it was presumably about purchasing drugs.  At some point the encounter became physical, and both of them were shot," said NOPD Superintendent Michael Harrison.

New Orleans police considering drones, transit hub changes, in wake of weekend violence.  Sixty-three law enforcement members were on patrol up and down the roughly mile-long stretch of New Orleans' Bourbon Street early Saturday morning (Nov. 28), yet a single gunman managed to kill 26-year-old Brandon Robinson amid the crowd of revelers.  Forty-four hours of overtime over the past week were used for New Orleans police officers to keep watch near the busy public transportation hub around Canal and Rampart streets, yet a 19-year-old man was gunned down just after 5:30 p.m. Monday at the busy intersection.  With both fatal shootings, the crush of foot traffic may have hindered the police response and allowed the suspected gunmen to escape.

New Orleans playground shooting suspect has long rap sheet.  New Orleans police were hunting Friday (Nov. 27) for Joseph "Moe" Allen, 32, the first suspect to be named in the Bunny Friend Park shooting that injured 17 people.  And they are pleading for people who were at the Upper 9th Ward playground to come forward with information.  Despite the crowds at the park when the gunfire erupted Sunday evening [11/22/2015], no one there had sent videos to police, Mayor Mitch Landrieu said.  "And everyone knows there are lots," he said. [...] Two groups of people turned their guns on each other, and police found as many as 70 bullet casings just the next morning.  No shooters other than Allen have been identified by police.

Police say 16 injured after shooting at New Orleans park.  A dispute between two groups of people in a New Orleans park Sunday [11/22/2015] escalated into a shooting that injured at least 16 people, police said late Sunday.  The shooting took place at around 6 p.m. local time after approximately 500 people had gathered at Bunny Friend Playground in the city's 9th Ward to film a music video, the New Orleans Police Department said in a statement.  Ambulances took 10 victims to area hospitals, and police later learned that another six victims had been taken to the hospital in private vehicles.

Shooting in New Orleans park leaves at least 16 people wounded.  A gunfight between two groups in a New Orleans park where hundreds of people were gathered for a block party and the filming of a music video has left 16 wounded, police said.  Shooting erupted at around 6.15pm on Sunday night in Bunny Friend park in the city's upper ninth ward, police said, although no fatalities were reported.

In New Orleans, the number of police is down and crime is up.  In late August, three gunmen burst through the doors of Patois, one of the most cherished restaurants in this city's tony Uptown neighborhood.  They forced diners to drop to the floor and hand over their cash and cellphones.  In September, it happened again, this time at an Uptown bistro called Atchafalaya.  Four days after that, robbers hit the Monkey Hill Bar, an upscale watering hole three blocks from Patois.  For a city reliant on tourism, where the culinary scene is king, the idea that diners might get held up between the appetizer and entree was a big problem.

$12,500 reward for information in shooting of good Samaritan.  Tulane University and Crimestoppers are offering a $12,500 reward for information that leads to the arrest of a man who shot 25-year-old Peter Gold on Friday morning (Nov. 20) after Gold disrupted the man's attack of a woman.  Detectives are sifting leads after police released surveillance video showing the incident, New Orleans Police Chief Michael Harrison said in an interview Friday night [11/20/2015].

3 more guilty pleas nearly complete downfall of New Orleans' 'Taliban' gang.  The state racketeering case targeting New Orleans' "Taliban" gang moved closer to completion as three more reputed members admitted guilt as part of plea deals entered in Orleans Parish criminal court.  Cornie "Porch" Jones, Darryl "Dino" Bannister and Jerome "Sookie" Tolliver each pleaded guilty to racketeering, aggravated battery and public intimidation on Tuesday [10/6/2015] before Judge Karen Herman.  In exchange, the state amended attempted murder charges that potentially could have sent the trio to prison for far longer sentences.

15-year-old sought in fatal eastern New Orleans shooting of 17-year-old.  New Orleans police are searching for a 15-year-old they suspect of fatally shooting another teenager last month at an eastern New Orleans apartment complex.  Miqueghele Brown is wanted in connection with the July 16 shooting, which took the life of 17-year-old Ortez Williams Jr.  The Times-Picayune generally does not name juveniles except in cases of the most serious crimes.  A provision in Louisiana state law allows law enforcement to name juvenile suspects "to assist in finding and taking into custody a child wanted for a felony-grade delinquent act ..."

Facial tattoos, $1 armed robbery help lead NOPD to 7th Ward suspect, police say.  An accused thief who New Orleans police said put a gun to a construction worker's head Wednesday to rob him of a power saw and a $1 bill has been captured and linked to at least three other crimes, authorities said.  Albert Myles was booked with armed robbery, armed robbery with a firearm, simple burglary of an inhabited dwelling and resisting an officer, with additional charges expected.

Who Runs the Streets of New Orleans?  Crime has dropped to record lows in most major American cities, but New Orleans, where wealthy neighborhoods sit side by side with some of the nation's poorest, continues to struggle.  The persistence of crime today stands as the most dominant threat to the resurgent image the city has had since Katrina.  Though the murder rate has been in decline, it is still second in the nation, just below Detroit.  Nonfatal shootings rose 23 percent last year, leading criminologists to argue that any decline in murders had more to do with advances in emergency medicine, not law enforcement.

NOPD arrests barber accused of murdering young mother found in burning car's trunk.  A 30-year-old barber from eastern New Orleans has been arrested and accused of murdering Lindsay Nichols, the young mother found shot to death June 21 inside the trunk of a burned-out car abandoned on Michoud Boulevard.  Thayon Samson was booked Monday night [7/21/2015] with second-degree murder, following an investigation led by NOPD Homicide Detective Rob Barrere.  Arrest documents show Barrere was able to place Samson at the murder scene using both cellphone data and DNA results from a telltale pair of basketball shorts found inside the charred car and worn by Samson in a photo found on his Instagram account.


New Orleans hits 100 murders 55 days sooner than last year.  New Orleans' year-to-date murder tally hit 100 on Thursday morning (July 9), 55 days sooner than a year ago, and 101 late Thursday night.  The grim triple-digit milestone had not been reached until the first week of September in each of the previous two years.  The City Hall chest-thumping that followed three consecutive years of declining murder totals has been muted this year, as officials and observers privately concede a fourth annual decline doesn't appear to be in the cards for 2015.

New Orleans police officer killed while transporting prisoner.  Travis Boys, 33, was being taken to jail early Saturday [6/20/2015] by Officer Daryle Holloway when Holloway was shot dead.  Boys fled the scene and was the focus of a "relentless" 24-hour manhunt before he was taken into custody Sunday morning as he was attempting to board a bus, police said.  Harrison said Sunday that Boys will be charged with first degree murder in the death of Holloway, who was 45.

Father slain in Metairie double-murder may have been asleep when shot, JPSO says.  David Pence and his son, Nicholas, were gunned down by shotgun blasts inside the living room of their Metairie home on Wednesday [4/22/2015], a double murder that Jefferson Parish Newell Normand said began with a pair of New Orleans teens breaking into David Pence's car in the driveway.  But Normand said investigators still have no idea how a how a car burglary — one of several committed in the neighborhood that by the two New Orleans charged in the killings — escalated into an "execution-style" shooting.

Random double murder rattles Metairie.  The news that two teens had been arrested in connection to the murder of David Pence and his son, Nicholas, provided small comfort to their neighbors in an upscale Metairie neighborhood, residents said.  Sunday's (April 26) sunny afternoon passed in typical quiet after the announcement by the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office that Dexter Allen, 17, and Haraquon Dugrey, 18, were jailed Friday.  But behind the stillness, residents were uneasy.

Black mob beats man 'for no reason'.  Police are "baffled."  So is the daily newspaper.  Three black men in New Orleans stalk and stomp a man almost to death.  They laugh.  They linger.  They beat him some more.  They move on.  Then return and kick him in the face.  It's all captured on video.

New Orleans musician in coma after street attack.  A popular New Orleans musician is fighting for his life in hospital after being brutally attacked in what is believed to be the latest case of a sick craze known as the knock-out game.  Doug Potter was returning to his car after playing a gig at Cafe Beignet inside the Bourbon Street courtyard venue on Tuesday night [1/21/2014] when he was brutally assaulted by two men.  The 54-year-old bass player is now in an induced coma after undergoing intensive brain surgery at University Hospital.

Baseball bats are used to attack Esplanade Avenue bicyclists, New Orleans police say.  New Orleans police are looking for attackers who twice used baseball bats to bash bicyclists on Esplanade Avenue, officers said Monday [2/17/2014].  In both cases, two people hit the cyclists in the head.  The first incident was reported Friday at 2:20 a.m. near the intersection of Esplanade and North Robertson Street.  A man was riding his bicycle on Esplanade when a male believed to be 16 to 18 years old jumped in front of him.  The bicyclist slowed, then another male of about the same age came into the street with an aluminum bat.  The attacker hit the cyclist in the mouth.  The two assailants fled.

The perpetrators are responsible for their violent criminal actions; and yet, who in his right mind would ride a bicycle on the streets of New Orleans at 2:30 a.m.?

Esplanade Avenue attacks on cyclists involving baseball bats scare area bikers.  After news that two men in New Orleans were badly beaten with baseball bats while riding their bicycles, 67-year-old Treme resident Sher Stewart set out to buy a new helmet Tuesday (Feb. 18).  The one she'd been using for years to bike the streets of New Orleans no longer felt adequate after such a brutal bout of violence against cyclists unfolded on Esplanade Avenue, just a stone's throw from her home.

The Editor says...
Bicyclists now buy helmets for protection from the inevitable muggings, rather than the slight chance of falling off their bikes.

In Bourbon Street shooting, 6 out-of-state visitors injured.  As the investigation into the Bourbon Street shooting continued Tuesday, police confirmed that six of the victims were visitors from out of state, including a woman from Australia.  NOPD spokeswoman Hilal Williams sent out a press release shortly before 2:30 p.m., which included a change in what authorities had previously said — that six of the victims were women and four were men.

Lawyer bewildered as to why he was beaten unconscious but not robbed of Rolex, cash.  Bill Callaham, a California lawyer, never had a chance to hand over his Rolex, cell phone or hundreds of dollars in cash.  The men who attacked him from behind in the Central Business District never made any demands.  They beat him unconscious, breaking his nose and his jaw.  And afterward, he said, they took nothing.  "If somebody had confronted me and asked for money, I would've happily given them my money," Callaham said Friday [12/19/2014], a week after the assault.  "I don't know if it was random, I mean, I have no idea.  I just think it's a sad state of society right now."

Get a clue, sir.  They beat you up because you're white and they're black.  To them, it's a hobby.  It's a sport.  They didn't take anything from you because the whole purpose of the attack was the attack itself.

Black crime in Denver

Denver police arrest 32 in series of downtown assaults.  The Denver Police Department arrested 32 men and juvenile boys after a months-long undercover investigation into what police said were racially motivated assaults and robberies in downtown Denver, including the LoDo entertainment district.  A task force composed of Denver police, the FBI and the Denver district attorney's office investigated 26 incidents in which groups of black males verbally harassed, assaulted and at times robbed white or Latino males, according to Denver Police Chief Gerry Whitman.

LoDo assault victims often sucker-punched.  [Peter] DeQuattro, who is white, was one of the most recent men targeted in a downtown-centered spree of attacks where small groups of black men and youths — many with admitted gang ties — tried to knock out white or Latino men with whacks to the head.  They sometimes stole from them or taunted them with racial epithets.

Racial terror in Denver that won't make national news.  Chilling details are emerging in the local Colorado press about violent black gangs who have been targeting white victims for months. ... Although police knew what was going on, citizens were left in the dark.  More dangerously blind diversity-mongering at work?

[...] Aurora police are now releasing a more detailed description of the two suspects:  Two black males in their mid-to late-teens, both between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 9 inches tall, with a medium build.


Black crime in Alabama

The most dangerous towns in America.  A personal finance website analyzed the FBI's recent crime statistics to determine the most dangerous cities in America[,] with a city in Alabama coming out on top.  MoneyGeek's annual analysis estimated the cost of crime in 302 cities with populations greater than 100,000 across the US.  The analysis determined the violent crime rate, property crime rate, cost of crime per capita and the total cost of crime in millions. [...] Overall, the analysis concluded that the city of Birmingham in Alabama was the most dangerous in the country.  It also concluded that Thousand Oaks, California was the safest.  The violent crime rate in Birmingham was 1,682, while the property crime rate was 4,173 per 100,000 residents.  The city also had the highest cost of crime per capita:  $11,392[.] [...] Coming in second was New Orleans, with a violent crime rate of 1,444 and a property crime rate of 4,641.  The crime cost per capita was $11,094.  As of last week, the Metropolitan Crime Commission reported an 84 percent increase in homicides since 2019 in New Orleans and a 45 percent rise in carjacking.

Trump Supporter Martyred:  RIP Thomas Shaw Jr., 75 — Stabbed By 21-Year Old Black Man.  Just another typical story out of 21st century post-America, where lives only matter if they can further the Narrative.  There was a man named Thomas Shaw Jr., an active citizen, businessman, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. [...] But in Montgomery, AL (home of the Southern Poverty Law Center), collecting rent and traveling the streets in safety is one of those things you can simply no longer do.  And in modern America, the Main Stream Media, academia, and the political elite endlessly incite hatred against people like Shaw.  This trickles down to the System's client class, the seething dependents of Third World America's urban hellholes.

The Ferguson effect:
Cop Pistol-Whipped With His Own Gun After Restraining Himself For Fear of Backlash.  The story of an Alabama police detective went viral this week after being pistol-whipped with his own gun for fear of becoming the newest police headline.  "A lot of officers are being too cautious because of what's going on in the media," the officer later told reporters.  "I hesitated because I didn't want to be in the media like I am right now."

Cop Pistol-Whipped With His Own Gun After Restraining Himself For Fear of Backlash.  After pulling-over to a parking lot at a shopping mall, Janard Cunningham reportedly got out of the car, sucker-punched the officer, and then grabbed the officers gun which he used to pistol-whip him unconscious.  After waking up in the hospital with stitches and a concussion, the officer said that he could have used his gun after Cunningham became noticeably belligerent and uncooperative, but refrained for fear of becoming a media pariah.

Pistol-whipped Alabama police officer mocked on Twitter, Facebook as bloody pictures surface.  The suspect stole the detective's gun during the struggle and clubbed him repeatedly with it, leaving the officer lying limp on the ground, Al.com reported.  Pictures of the bloodied officer surfaced on social media shortly after the brutal confrontation.  "Pistol pimped his face n um chillen now," Twitter user @TriggaMane666 posted with a picture of the wounded officer.  "Pistol whipped his a** to sleep," a Facebook user wrote before deleting a post showing the officer face down on the sidewalk.

Officer Beaten by a Convicted Felon Hesitated for Fear of Being Called Racist: Welcome to Post-Ferguson Policing.  Last Friday [8/14/2015], a Birmingham plainclothes detective pulled over a car being driven erratically.  The officer, who has chosen to remain anonymous to protect his family, told the driver to stay in the car while he called for backup.  Instead, according to CNN, the driver got out and became belligerent, angrily and repeatedly asking why he'd been stopped.  The driver, a 34-year-old convicted felon, allegedly grabbed the detective's gun and pistol-whipped him with it until the detective lost consciousness.  The felon, Janard Cunningham, reportedly fled the scene but was later apprehended.  His record includes convictions for robbery and assault, among other crimes, and an attempted-murder charge, according to ABC 3340 and WVTM 13.

Police: Facebook Feud Led To Fatal Shooting Of 14-Year-Old Girl.  A Facebook feud led to the fatal shooting of a 14-year-old Alabama girl after the social media dispute turned into a deadly planned brawl at a park.  The Birmingham Police Department says Kierra'onna Rice, 14, was shot and killed on Friday evening during a planned fight with several other girls at a park on Washington Avenue, WVTM-TV reports.  The fight, which investigators say spilled over from a Facebook dispute, was intended to be videotaped and then posted online.

Police to White Victim: We 'Don't Mess' with Black Gang.  Most of us have heard about how the media won't report on black-on-white crime.  We also may know that authorities sometimes sweep it under the rug due to political pressure, usually with a wink and a nod.  But not so in rural Alabama, where the police actually told a white crime victim that they "don't mess" with a local black motorcycle gang.  The tragic event that led to this shocking admission occurred on March 28, as truck driver Nick Stokes and neighbor Johnathan Cooper were heading out of Birmingham hauling a portable cabin.

No Attention for Daylight Highway Stabbing in Alabama.  A frightening event happened March 28 on an Alabama highway.  The event has received no national attention apart from a lone story in the Macon Beacon in Macon, Mississippi.  Not only was the event frightening, but the response — or lack thereof — by Alabama law enforcement authorities was almost as frightening.  The local media, including the Birmingham News, failed to cover the shocking attack.  With the flurry of national media attention the Trayvon Martin killing has received, why hasn't the daylight stabbing of Nick Stokes received any attention?

Man Beaten By Mob, In Critical Condition.  Mobile police need your help to catch a mob that beat Matthew Owens so badly that he's in critical condition. [...] Owens' sister, Ashley Parker, saw the attack.  "It was the scariest thing I have ever witnessed."  Parker says 20 people, all African American, attacked her brother on the front porch of his home, using "brass buckles, paint cans and anything they could get their hands on."  Police will only say "multiple people" are involved.

Calling Out the Mobile Police Department.  As I reported yesterday [4/25/2012], the Mobile Police Department is ludicrously claiming that it is likely that no more than three people will be arrested for the now-infamous mob beating of a man in Mobile because the other 17 or so people were supposedly just "onlookers."

If You Don't Look Like Obama's Son, No One Cares.  The news story is horrifying:  after a trivial encounter with a group of youths who were playing basketball, a man in Mobile, Alabama, was set upon by a gang of twenty men armed with brass knuckles, chairs, pipes and paint cans.  The victim, Matthew Owens, was attacked on his own front porch and beaten within an inch of his life.

Beating of Alabama man not seen as hate crime, despite claim 'Trayvon' invoked.  A racially charged beating of a white Alabama man by a throng of African-Americans is not being investigated as a hate crime, despite one witness' claim that she heard an assailant exclaim:  "Now that's justice for Trayvon."

Victim's sister: Mobile, Ala. black-on-white beating sparked by theft, not basketball.  The sister of a white Mobile, Alabama man who suffered severe head trauma during a beating by approximately 20 black neighbors on Saturday spoke exclusively to The Daily Caller, saying that the incident started after one of her children witnessed some of the eventual assailants stealing an item from a neighbor's porch — not, as some media outlets have reported, following a disagreement about a pick-up basketball game in the street.

The Mob in Mobile.  Last Saturday night at 8:20 p.m., when the white Matthew Owens was beaten into critical condition by a mob of dozens of black neighbors, Al Sharpton and the New Black Panthers got what they wanted:  a white victim, any white victim, in payback for the killing of Trayvon Martin.  May God have mercy on their miserable souls — because the rest of us should shun them mercilessly from all decent society.

Woman Shot Dead after Confronting Speeder in Neighborhood.  A woman has died after being shot during an argument with a driver speeding through her neighborhood in Mobile on Racine Avenue.  Mobile Polices say 40-year-old Wendy Fisher died after being transported to USA Medical Center with a life-threatening gunshot to the chest.  Witnesses say Fisher confronted a car speeding down her street after it almost hit her dog.  Police say three to four black males were inside the car, and one of them opened fire, striking North in the chest.

Uniformed Officer Booted From Chuck E Cheese Over Duty Handgun.  The comments to the article seem split between being outraged that the store's on-duty staff and manager were ignorant of both state law and the chain's own policies, and regular folks who are outraged that the chain bans citizens from providing for their own self-defense.  Chuck E Cheese locations have been the scene of everything from attempted assassinations to assaults to a mass murder, attempted rapes, and massive brawls.  Clearly, the chain's policy of denying citizens the right to self-defense inside their establishments isn't working.

Did You Hear About the Racist Black Guy Who Shot Up Two Police Stations?  Remember last year when a black guy threatened to kill all white people and then shot up two police stations in Indianapolis?  Yeah, me neither and it's pretty much my job to notice these things.  Apparently it wasn't considered big news in a year when radical black terrorists were ambushing and killing police officers, so the liberal media can be excused for burying this story.  I saw this story on RTV6 today and it blew my mind that I never heard a peep about it last year: [...] You would think that when a black guy left notes threatening to kill white people and then shot up a couple of police stations just as few month later, that it might be considered a serious news story.  That doesn't appear to be the case.

Amanda Blackburn murder arrest.  The crime spree that ended Amanda Blackburn's life began with a series of burglaries carried out across the Northside of Indianapolis.  The Blackburn home was the third burglary in the early-morning hours of Nov. 10.  The perpetrators, police said, were after money.  But the chaos ended around 7 a.m., police said, when one of the suspects — a teenager — leaned over Blackburn's body and shot her in the back of the head.  Then he leaned further, police said.  He looked at her face.  And he watched her bleed.  That harrowing account of events was made public Monday [11/23/2015] as the city's top law enforcers announced a slew of charges against two suspects, accused triggerman Larry Taylor, 18, and suspected accomplice Jalen Watson, 21.

Conservatives Blind to Racism, says RedState Seer.  [Scroll down]  No one is even trying to keep count of how many dozens of times over the last three years black mob violence has erupted in that once-gleaming showcase of Midwestern downtown revival.  Many of them on video.  Each and every time the reporters pretend they are surprised, refer to the creators of the chaos as "teens", and dutifully report a few days later that racism in Indianapolis caused the whole thing.  Then everyone gets ready for the next cycle of violence and denial and deceit.


The Jersey City Black Nationalist Attack

Jersey City Terror Attack Mirrors Another.  Armed to the teeth with guns and explosives, David K. Anderson and Francine Graham opened fire Tuesday in Jersey City on a kosher grocery store, killing three civilians.  Prior to the attack at the store the couple allegedly shot and killed Jersey City Police Detective Joseph Seals.  Seals was investigating a report of a stolen van used in a homicide in Bayonne, N.J. several days earlier.  Initial reports on the supermarket attack downplayed the possibility that it was a terrorist attack.  And in the initial chaos, some people tried to fill an information void with speculation.  That continued even as subsequent information made it clear that the killers were Jew haters who targeted to the kosher store.  U.S. Rep Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., went so far as to assume the attack was an act of white supremacy even though the shooters' identities were already known publicly.  What utter nonsense.  Was Tllaib, well known for her anti-Semitic statements, attempting to disguise or deflect away from what really motivated the shooters?  Once it became clear she was mistaken, Tlaib took her statement down.  But she did not replace it with any comment about the anti-Semitism that drove the violence.

Keyport man charged in connection to Jersey City shooting.  A borough man has been charged in connection to Tuesday's mass shooting in Jersey City that left a total of six people dead, according to U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito.  Ahmed Hady, 35, is charged in a federal criminal complaint with one count of being a previously convicted felon in possession of a firearm.  Hady was arrested by FBI agents early Saturday morning.

Neighbor Says that Jersey City Black Nationalist Terrorist Attack Was Inspired by Democrat Ally and Friend of Obama Louis Farrakhan.  Well this is confusing.  I know that the only two things this guy could be are "White Nationalist" or "Christian Zealot," but he's not either of those, so I guess the real villain here is... guns.  "The motive may never be known." [...] Joy Behar isn't afraid to call out these evil men and their evil ideology — she has firmly condemned White Nationalism for the attack.

FBI seizes van connected to Jersey City shooters in New Jersey.  Authorities on Saturday seized a van believed to be connected to the shooters in the Jersey City attack that left four people — including a cop — dead, officials said.  The FBI discovered the 2001 Ford van on Central Avenue near South Center Street in Orange, New Jersey, authorities said.  The Essex County Sheriff's Office bomb squad assisted with the seizure, and the area was later given the all-clear.  The vehicle, which had New Jersey plates, is believed to have been previously owned by gunman David Anderson, 47, a spokesperson for the Essex County Sheriff's Office said.

Man busted after his number found in dead Jersey City shooter's pocket: feds.  A New Jersey man was busted by federal authorities after cops found his phone number scrawled on a note in one of the Jersey City shooter's back pockets, authorities said.  Ahmed A-Hady's Monmouth County pawnshop and house were searched over the weekend and feds found him illegally in possession of six rifles, including three AR-15-style assault rifles, three handguns and one shotgun, U.S. Attorney Craig Carpenito said late Saturday [12/14/2019].  Authorities also found hundreds of bullets, including a "large number" of hollow-point rounds, according to the criminal complaint.

Rep. Ilhan Omar defended Nation of Islam-influenced group behind kosher market attack in Jersey City.  The New York Times called them "sidewalk ministers" who practice "tough love."  The paper quoted Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center who described them as victims of racism and claimed that they were non-violent.  The Washington Post, in its own puff piece on the Black Hebrew Israelites, also falsely described them as non-violent, and concluded that, "Israelite street preaching in parts of D.C., Philadelphia and New York is commonplace, a familiar if odd accent to city life."  The odd accent to city life in Jersey City came amid a hail of bullets as two members of the racist black nationalist hate group opened fire in the JC Supermarket.

New Jersey killers 'targeted' Jewish supermarket.  No motive has been confirmed, but the mayor of Jersey City tweeted that "hate and anti-Semitism" had no place in the city.  The suspects are believed to have killed a detective across town, then driven a rental van to the store.  Security video shows them firing on the market before going inside.  Investigators believe that the three people found dead inside the kosher market were killed by the attackers, who were also found dead inside the building following a four-hour standoff with police on Tuesday [12/10/2019].

Cory Booker's statement on Jersey City slaughter doesn't mention Jews or antisemitism.  New Jersey Senator Cory Booker delivered a slap in the face of Jews everywhere with his statement on the horrific attack on his constituents in Jersey City targeted because they were Jews.  Not a word about Jews or Jew-hatred, or the spread of violence directed against Jews.  Nothing!  Booker is traveling the same road as his buddy Barack Obama, who could only bring himself to condemn "zealots who behead people or randomly shoot a bunch of folks in a deli in Paris," on the parallel targeted slaughter of Jews in Paris at a kosher supermarket.  They were not "randomly" targeted, and to pretend that Jew-hatred was not the motive is dishonest and dangerous.  Booker is equally irresponsible, using only the word "residents" to describe the victims.  At least he didn't call the slaughter random, but he gave no reason behind it, calling it merely "senseless," as if there were no motive behind it.

Jersey City shooting suspects David Anderson and Francine Graham followed 'hateful' religious sect.  The Jersey City shooters were adherents of a fringe religious movement that's been labeled a hate group by experts who track extremists in the US.  David Anderson was described by law enforcement sources on Wednesday as a follower of the Black Hebrew Israelites, and he introduced girlfriend and accomplice Francine Graham to their beliefs, a former friend and neighbor in Elizabethport, New Jersey, told The [New York] Post.  "I know she has a religion called the black Jews or something.  She just told me that was her religion," the woman said.

Jersey City shooters
Jersey City shooters were lovers who lived in a van.  The hate mongers behind the deadly Jersey City shooting that left three civilians and a police officer dead were a pair of religiously fanatical lovers who lived together inside a van, according to records and neighbors.  The killer couple, David N. Anderson, 47, and Francine Graham, 50, — who died in a gun battle with cops — met about two years ago when Graham was living a quiet life as a home health aide in an Elizabeth, N.J., apartment complex, The [New York] Post has learned.


Rashida Tlaib wrongly claims 'white supremacy' behind Jersey City slaughter.  Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib appeared to blame the Jersey City shooting on "white supremacy" Thursday — even though the attackers have been identified as members of an extremist "anti-white and anti-Semitic" movement.  The Democratic congresswoman retweeted a photo of one of the victims of Tuesday's shooting, 24-year-old Moshe Deutsch, an Orthodox Jew, with the caption:  "This is heartbreaking.  White Supremacy Kills."  Twitter users were quick to call out Tlaib. [...] Shooters David Anderson and Francine Graham were followers of the Black Hebrew Israelites, a fringe religious movement, not affiliated with mainstream Judaism, that's been labeled a hate group by experts who track extremists in the US.

Jersey City shooting suspects identified as David Anderson and Francine Graham.  One of the two shooters who fatally shot up a Jersey City Jewish deli in what officials say was a "targeted" attack posted anti-Jewish and anti-police messages to social media before the chaotic attack that left three civilians and a cop dead, law enforcement sources said Wednesday [12/11/2019].  Sources said David Anderson, who committed the deadly Tuesday attack with a woman identified as Francine Graham, was a one-time follower of the Black Hebrew Israelite movement and made the hateful postings on his social media page.  Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop said Wednesday that the pair of gun-wielding attackers were captured on CCTV footage "slowly" rolling up to the Jersey City Kosher Supermarket in the Greenville neighborhood in a van before they stopped in front, "calmly opened the door with two long rifles" and "began firing from the street" into the store.

Man released early from prison due to COVID accused in killing 2 days later.  One of the men recently charged in the November 2020 shooting death of an 18-year-old Bridgeton resident was released from prison two days before the killing as part of an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19 in New Jersey detention facilities[.]  Jerry D. Crawford, 25, who was serving time on burglary charges, was released on "public health emergency credits" to mandatory parole supervision on Nov. 4, state Department of Corrections officials confirmed.  Crawford, an Atlantic City resident, and Yusuf Waites, 23, of Bridgeton, are charged with murder in the Nov. 6 shooting of Davion Scarbrough.  Following deaths and soaring infection rates attributed to COVID-19 in state prisons, thousands of inmates were released early under the emergency plan last year.  All of those freed early were within months of their release dates.  Inmates convicted of murder, aggravated sexual assault and "repetitive, compulsive" sex offenders were excluded from the group considered for release.

Police: Man charged in North Bergen crash that killed 2 teens driving at 'outrageous' speed.  Shock and sorrow overflowed among relatives and friends who gathered in mourning on Monday [3/7/2016] at the site where two teenagers were killed by a speeding car in North Bergen over the weekend, as more details emerged about the motorist who is charged in their deaths.  Eric Patterson, 23, of Jersey City had tallied a long list of motor vehicle violations and had racked up 23 license suspensions.  He had last driven legally in September 2014.  Law enforcement officials on Monday [3/7/2016] said he may have been traveling at 74 mph on the 25-mph roadway just before the deadly crash occurred.

The Editor says...
This young man is 23 years old, and has had his license suspended 23 times, prior to September 2014, which was 18 months ago.  If he started driving when he was 16, that means he got his license suspended 23 times in 5½ to 6 years, or about every 90 days.  It would be interesting to read the court transcript from the day his license was suspended for the 21st time.  Surely something was said along the lines of, "We'll give you just one more chance, and then you're really in trouble!"  But no, for whatever reason, the State of New Jersey is determined to keep a license in this guy's pocket — even though he would probably drive around without one.  To me it appears that the judges in New Jersey don't care what you do, or how many times you fail to learn your lesson, as long as you hire a lawyer and pay the fine promptly.  Even for the 22nd time.  It's no wonder there's so much crime in this country.  Punishment is hit-and-miss, at best.

[...] Until we honestly confront the reality of what is taking place we cannot expect to see this trend stop.  Every single one of these attacks is identical.  A black suspect — usually a youth — a specifically intended random white or asian victim, a random blow to the face/head:  [List of attacks.]

Authorities arrest 3 of 5 men wanted in brutal downtown Newark beating.  Police have arrested three of the five men wanted in connection with a bloody attack on a local man in downtown Newark last week, city public safety director Anthony Ambrose announced Wednesday [1/20/2016]. [...] According to police reports, the 28-year-old victim, whose name is being withheld, told investigating officers the attack began as a confrontation over cigarettes.  The victim told police he was distributing promotional flier and free cigarettes near the corner when a group of men selling cigarettes nearby took issue.  Their confrontation led to a fight, during which several men began kicking and punching the victim, the reports said.

Brutal beating caught on video prompts Newark to step up downtown patrols.  Days after video of a brutal beating surfaced online, officials say they are stepping up crime-fighting efforts at one of the city's busiest intersections.  The disturbing footage surfaced Sunday just hours after a man was left visibly bloodied by several attackers at the corner of Broad Street and Market Street — the heart of the city's "Four Corners" historic district.

The Editor says...
I used to complain (on this page) that the news media left out the word black from any description of the suspects in cases like this.  But now I realize that it isn't necessary to describe the suspects as black.  Nobody else acts like this!  White guys don't gang up 10-against-1 on a victim and take turns beating and kicking him, while another white person stands by and records it on his or her cell phone.

N.J. men ran underage prostitution ring, prosecutors allege.  Two New Jersey men face decades in prison after authorities accused the pair of running an underage prostitution ring in Atlantic County, according to police.  After a four-month investigation, authorities have charged Seleem Reynolds, 25, and Mikal Mitchell, 29, with promoting the underage prostitution, a first-degree crime, Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain announced Friday [1/8/2016].  The state alleges that Reynolds and Mitchell sold four teenagers for prostitution, according to Jay McKeen, a spokesperson for the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office.

Suspect Arrested in Attack on Mom Caught on Nanny Cam.  Police have arrested a suspect in the attack on a young mother — captured by a nanny cam — who was beaten in front of her 3-year-old daughter at their home in an upscale New Jersey community.  Shawn Custis, 42, was arrested in upper Manhattan by New York and New Jersey FBI agents Friday afternoon, shortly after he was publicly identified as a suspect, a law enforcement official said.  Custis, who has a long criminal history of burglaries, was located in the lobby of a building on 10th Avenue in Inwood, where his girlfriend lives, the official said.

Update:  The perp had a long record already.
Despite long criminal record, plea deals limited prison time for Millburn home invasion suspect.  A muscular man at 216 pounds — a scar between his eyes, his name tattooed on his chest, and "Cathy-Joy" inked on his left forearm — [Shawn] Custis, 42, has been sentenced to prison eight times.  First convicted as an adult two months after his 18th birthday, he has done time for burglary, possession of a gun, robbery, assault, resisting arrest, theft and forgery.  He has escaped at least once from a halfway house and boasts multiple parole revocations.

The perps who are less than 18 years of age apparently cannot be named in the newspapers because they are "children."  It's time to lower that age down to about 14.

Hoboken neighbors reeling after arrest of three young teens in murder of disabled man.  The boys, two 13-year-olds and a 14-year-old, all from Jersey City, face murder charges and have been remanded to the Hudson County Youth Detention Center, Gregory said.  Davis said Sunday [9/22/2013] that he knew the victim, a homeless man who was found with his neck wedged between iron fence posts on Third Street in Hoboken, "He went to the 8th Street shelter.  He didn't bother anybody.  He talked to himself in public but maybe that's why he was attacked," said Davis.

The Sick and Horrifying New Game Teenagers Play "For Fun" Called "Knock Out".  One man who was interviewed about the "game" said the victim can be anyone, including a woman and her young children.  "You just knock them out, hit them with a blow and take their belongings," a teenager with a blurred face says.  Police believe "knock-out" led to the death of a homeless man in Hoboken, New Jersey which is right across from New York City.  "It could be anybody, it could be a mother with their children.  I know one time they got the UPS guy, it's a macho thing," another man says.

An Epidemic of Carjackings Afflicts Newark.  "It is like a diseased town," said the Newark store owner, who spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of retribution from the assailants in the Mercedes case, who have not been caught.  "There are a lot of predators."  Carjackings are nothing new to Newark, a city that was among the nation's worst for such crimes in the 1990s.  Like other cities, Newark saw the number of carjackings fall in subsequent years.  But they have returned to Newark with a vengeance.

Paterson community in uproar over shooting that left 12-year-old girl brain-dead.  Shootings occur almost nightly in the Fourth Ward, residents told The Record.  Nearly half of the city's shootings from the first quarter of this year occurred in the Fourth Ward, where violence largely stems from drug and gang activity.  A two-week sweep of the area surrounding Wrigley Park recently nabbed 170 people and netted 20 guns, 2,000 bags of heroin and $25,000 in cash.

Hackensack cops seek 'knockout game' suspect after three assaults.  Hackensack residents were warned to be alert as police hunted for a man who randomly approached and punched three others Monday night in what may be the first local incidents of "the knockout game."  The activity has resulted in one North Jersey death and plagued urban areas nationwide.  The three separate, sudden assaults took place within 15 minutes and involved the same man, who appeared to be acting alone, police said.

Hackensack store's surveillance video shows suspect in possible 'knockout' assault.  A video of a man's sudden, vicious attack on a passer-by in what city police warn may be among the first local incidents of the "knockout game" was released from a store surveillance camera Wednesday [8/20/2014].  The athletically built assailant is recorded walking coolly into a convenience store.  Four minutes later, he strolls outside, empty-handed and with the same demeanor.  But in a burst of violence, he slugs a man he encounters in the face, causing the man to instantly fall to the ground.

Hackensack and Paterson assaults are not part of 'knockout game,' police say.  After a man in his 60s was beaten by a group of teenagers in Paterson on Wednesday night [8/20/2014], a city councilman said it looked like an example of a supposedly trending national game called "knockout."  Fears that the game, blamed for at least one death in New Jersey, had taken root locally were fanned earlier in the week when a lone assailant randomly punched three people in separate incidents in Hackensack.

Two arrested in Camden in rape and beating of homeless woman.  Camden County Police, with an assist from the community, arrested two men in the rape and beating of a 54-year-old homeless Camden woman.  Miguel Nunez, 36, and Quameer Hence, 23, were arrested and charged Thursday [9/18/2014] with aggravated sexual assault, aggravated assault, and robbery.  Nunez was additionally charged with unlawful possession of a weapon for using a brick against the woman.

The carjacking at Short Hills Mall

Short Hills mall fatal shooting victim ID'd as Hoboken lawyer.  The fatal shooting of Dustin Friedland, 30, by two men after they rolled up on him and his wife in the parking deck on Sunday night is the latest — and deadliest — of the more than 400 carjackings reported in Essex County this year, officials said.

The Editor says...
This case has had extensive coverage in the news media, yet I have seen no description of the suspects in any report, except to say that police are looking for "two men."  Therefore it is safe to conclude that the police are looking for two black men; otherwise, the newspapers would make it clear that the suspects were white.  That's just the way the news media works.

Update:  I was right.
Short Hills mall shooting update: 4 men arrested, identified in connection with deadly carjacking.  Nearly a week after 30-year-old Hoboken lawyer Dustin Friedland was gunned down in a deadly carjacking while returning to his vehicle in an upper level parking deck of the Mall at Short Hills, police this morning arrested four men on charges of murder.  The four, were identified as Karif Ford, 31, Basim Henry, 32, Kevin Roberts, 35, all of Newark, and Hanif Thompson, 29, of Irvington.  All were being held at the Essex County Correctional Facility on $2 million bail each.

Four arrested for killing lawyer, 30, shot dead protecting his wife in carjacking at New Jersey mall.  Four men have been arrested over the death of a lawyer shot in front of his wife during a carjacking outside a New Jersey mall last week, authorities said on Saturday.  The suspects in the fatal carjacking on Sunday last week, in which Dustin Friedland was killed at The Mall, Short Hills, were arrested in a series of raids overnight.

Short Hills mall carjacking suspects had criminal records ranging from bank robbery to burglary.  At least three of the four men charged this morning in the fatal carjacking of a Hoboken lawyer at a The Mall at Short Hills last Sunday evening have been arrested before, according to state and federal records, for crimes ranging from burglary to bank robbery.

4 arrested in deadly New Jersey mall carjacking.  Four men have been arrested and charged in the death of a man shot in front of his wife during a carjacking outside an upscale mall in northern New Jersey last weekend, authorities say.  The suspects, identified as Hanif Thompson, 29, Karif Ford, 31, Basim Henry 32, and Kevin Roberts, 33, appear to have been motivated by a desire for the victim's silver Range Rover, Essex County Prosecutor Carolyn Murray said in a press conference Saturday [12/21/2013].

Short Hills mall shooting: Discovery of suspect's mother's car led police to carjackers.  The big break in the case came Wednesday [12/18/2013].  That's when a green Chevrolet Suburban, caught on surveillance video menacingly circling the parking areas of the Mall at Short Hills, was discovered abandoned in South Orange, according to two law enforcement sources.  The large sports utility vehicle, they would later find out, belonged to the mother of one of the suspects in the fatal carjacking last Sunday of 30-year-old Dustin Friedland, who was shot and left for dead on the concrete floor of a mall parking deck as the Hoboken lawyer and his wife were returning to their car after an evening of shopping.

Deadly Short Hills mall carjacking fuels bail reform debate.  One week before police say he took part in a deadly carjacking at the Short Hills mall, Hanif Thompson was spotted breaking into property in Newark, getting into an Audi and trying to drive away, Essex County prosecutors say.  Newark police caught Thompson near the Weequahic Avenue property on Dec. 7 and charged him with burglary and resisting arrest, prosecutors say.

Update:
Four men indicted on murder charges in deadly carjacking at Short Hills mall.  Four men have been indicted on charges of killing a Hoboken attorney during a carjacking in December at The Mall at Short Hills, Acting Essex County Prosecutor Carolyn A. Murray announced today [9/22/2014].  Basim Henry, 33, of South Orange, Hanif Thompson, 29, of Irvington, and Karif Ford, 32, and Kevin Roberts, 35, both of Newark, were indicted in connection with the Dec. 15, 2013 murder of 30-year-old Dustin Friedland, prosecutors said.

The specific case of Shannon J. Miles

Oh, Now Obama Cares About Police Safety.  Amid a rash of deadly ambushes of police officers, President Obama suddenly is concerned for their safety.  Not so fast.  Obama is chief among the anti-cop antagonists who've put police lives in danger.  After spending a year falsely vilifying police as racist murderers, Obama has softened his tone.  What changed?  National outcry over the cold-blooded assassination of a Houston cop.

Man suspected of killing Texas county sheriff's deputy reportedly arrested.  Fox affiliate KRIV reports Harris County Sheriff's Office deputies captured the suspect in the murder of Deputy Darren Goforth early Saturday [8/29/2015]. [...] Goforth, 47, was pumping gas into his patrol car at a suburban Houston gas station when a man approached him from behind and fired multiple shots, Harris County Sheriff's Office spokesman Ryan Sullivan told The Associated Press.  No motive was determined for the shooting.

The Editor says...
As usual, the police pretend to be completely baffled about the shooter's motive.  They quickly decided that the officer was killed just because he was a cop, but it is apparently inconceivable that the perpetrator was especially motivated by racial animosity — quite possibly second-hand hatred.

Texas investigators search for motive behind killing of sheriff's deputy.  Harris County Sheriff Ron Hickman said the attack was "clearly unprovoked," and there is no evidence so far that Goforth knew Miles.  Investigators have no information from Miles that would shed light on his motive, Hickman said.  "Our assumption is that he was a target because he wore a uniform," the sheriff said.

Texas Woman Who Tweeted Deputy Deserved Execution Arrested on Assault Charge.  The Texas woman who garnered an unexpected national spotlight after tweeting that a Harris County deputy deserved to be executed was arrested in her home county on an assault warrant out of Houston.  The arrest stems from a 2011 incident where she allegedly punched a former co-worker in the face causing bodily injury.  Montgomery County jail officials confirmed to Breitbart Texas that Monica Foy was arrested on Tuesday evening [9/1/2015] for an arrest warrant out of Harris County.

Police Lives Matter, Too.  Over the weekend, Shannon Jaruay Miles, a college dropout with three previous convictions for resisting arrest, allegedly ran up behind Harris County Sheriff's Deputy Darren Goforth and shot him in the head as he filled his patrol car with gas.  The suspect then shot the deputy repeatedly in the back as he lay dying on the ground.  Investigators found 15 shell casings at the scene, meaning the shooter unloaded his gun on Goforth, who leaves behind a wife and two children.  Police say Goforth had no previous contact with Miles and that the attack was unprovoked.  They say Miles was targeting the deputy because he wore a uniform. They also suggest that his skin color played a role.  Goforth was white and Miles is black.

Apparently "cops' lives matter" is now an insult.  Janell Ross is listed as a "race, gender, immigration and inequality reporter" at the Washington Post, and someone we've run across here at Hot Air before.  In keeping with her assigned "beat" in public news, Ms. Ross has chosen to pick up on the story of the assassination of Deputy Darren Goforth and, specifically, the comments of his fellow law enforcement officers in the wake of the murder.  It seems that the grieving of the Harris County Sheriff and his comments about cops' lives mattering was a bridge too far for Ross, who still finds any iteration of the current catchphrase other than "black lives matter" to be offensive.

No Surprise — Texas Shooting Suspect Has History as "Mentally Incompetent" In Prior Criminal Trials.  From the outset, even before Miles was identified, we suspected the narrative surrounding the "person of interest" would encompass "mental incapacity"; apparently our suspicions are confirmed.

Career criminal charged with capital murder after 'executing Houston cop in gas station ambush'.  A serial criminal has been arrested in connection with the 'senseless' and 'cold-blooded' killing of a sheriff's deputy who was shot dead during a gas station ambush. [...] No definitive motive has been put forward for the killing — but Harris County sheriff Ron Hickman pointed the finger at the Black Lives Matter protest group for their 'out of control rhetoric' against law enforcement.

Armed Black Panthers to Texas Cops: 'We Will Start Creeping Up on You in the Darkness'.  Armed Black Panther members marched in front of the Waller County jail and shouted, "You're gonna stop doing what you're doing, or we will start creeping up on you in the darkness."  The statement was made just two weeks prior to the assassination of a Harris County deputy sheriff.

Houston gunman 'shot deputy 15 times' in gas station assassination that [has been] linked to national anti-police rhetoric.  A suburban Houston police officer who was ambushed at a gas station was shot 15 times, Harris County district attorney Devon Anderson said in court Monday [8/31/2015].

Death to Cops Chant by #BlackLivesMatter After Goforth was Assassinated.  Tell me how, "Pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon!" isn't hate speech?  At the Minnesota State Fair, #BlackLivesMatter marched arm in arm chanting that phrase.  It is violent cop-hating rhetoric. [...] WCCO-TV reported that the march and anti-cop rhetoric upset police officers who were providing escort and security for the marchers.  A spokesman for the officers called the action of the BLM protesters "disgusting," saying it created a dangerous atmosphere for law enforcement personnel.  These people want a race war and dead cops.

Did A Radio Show Incite Murder?  [Scroll down]  Now, unless the killer claims that the show incited him, we will never know if "Sunshine" and her radio show directly caused the murder of Deputy Goforth.  The fact that she's locked down her Twitter feed says that she doesn't want to be tied to it, blamed for it, or even discuss it.  But this is the natural, inevitable result of her rhetoric.  If you incite violence, or allow it to be spread, eventually someone acts on it.

[...] Goforth, 47, was pumping gas into his patrol car at a suburban Houston gas station when a man approached him from behind and fired multiple shots, Harris County Sheriff's Office spokesman Ryan Sullivan told The Associated Press. No motive was determined for the shooting.

The Editor says...
As usual, the police pretend to be completely baffled about the shooter's motive.  Apparently some find it inconceivable that the victim was shot just because he was a cop — and especially because he was a white cop.

Texas investigators search for motive behind killing of sheriff's deputy.  Texas investigators were trying to determine on Sunday what may have motivated a 30-year-old man accused of ambushing a suburban Houston sheriff's deputy filling his patrol car with gas in what authorities believe was a targeted killing.  Shannon J. Miles was charged Saturday with capital murder in the killing of Darren Goforth, 47, a 10-year veteran of the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

Who Shot the Sheriff?  Let's start with the obvious.  Shannon Miles (a black man) is a crazy guy, just as Dylann Roof (the white man from the Charleston church shootings) is a crazy guy and Vester Lee Flanagan (the black man who killed his white co-workers at a Virginia TV station the other day) was a crazy guy. [...] Also obvious, Barack Obama and Eric Holder (and now Loretta Lynch) are to blame for encouraging an atmosphere of racial divisiveness and, yes, hatred in our society.  Anyone honest can see — and the polls have reported — a serious increase in racial tension and violence (Baltimore, Ferguson, etc.) since the beginning of the Obama administration.  The racist-to-the-core "Black Lives Matter" movement is quite simply their evil spawn.

The comments that became a reporter's death sentence.  The words are a part of everyday conversation — "swinging" by an address and going out in the "field."  But in the twisted mind of Virginia gunman Vester Lee Flanagan II, they were pure racism — and saying them became a death sentence for Alison Parker. [...] Parker was never disciplined over the remarks, but Flanagan never forgot them.

Black Activists Call for Lynching and Hanging of White People and Cops.  Members of the #FYF911 or #F**YoFlag and #BlackLivesMatter movements called for the lynching and hanging of white people and cops.  They encouraged others on a radio show Tuesday night [8/25/2015] to "turn the tide" and kill white people and cops to send a message about the killing of black people in America.

The Editor says...
Notice that a deputy sheriff in Houston was murdered four days after this incitement.  It would be worthwhile to ask the suspected killer if he was listening to this internet radio show on Tuesday.

Black Lives Matter Podcast Calling for Whites to be Murdered & Lynched Suddenly Disappears from Website.  Last week the Internet burned up with news that a group of African Americans hosting a "black lives matter" styled podcast had been urging blacks to begin lynching white people and taking photos of their bodies hanging from trees[.]  The podcast had been up for some time, but over the weekend, after people began to notice its existence, the program suddenly disappeared from the black radical's website.

Suspect arrested in shooting death of Texas sheriff's deputy.  Authorities in Harris County, Texas, have arrested a suspect in connection with the shooting death of Deputy Darren Goforth. [...] Goforth, a 10-year veteran of the Harris County Sheriff's Office, died at the scene in what appeared to be "an unprovoked, execution-style killing," [Harris County Sheriff Ron] Hickman said.  "I have been in law enforcement (for) 45 years," the sheriff said.  "I don't recall another incident this cold-blooded and cowardly."

Suspect arrested, charged in Texas deputy's slaying.  The suspect, identified as Shannon J. Miles, had been in police custody since early Saturday, even as authorities pleaded for the public's help in identifying the man who fatally shot the sheriff's deputy in the back in what was described as a "cold-blooded execution."  Miles criminal history includes charges of resisting arrest, trespassing, evading detention and disorderly conduct with a firearm, [Sheriff] Hickman said.


The specific case of Vester Lee Flanagan II a/k/a Bryce Williams

Gun Control Shills Won't Let Roanoke Journalists' Murders Go To Waste.  [Scroll down]  Even the reporter's grieving father, Andrew Parker, got drawn into the gun control debate.  Mr. Parker told Megyn Kelly on Fox News on Wednesday:  "My mission in life, and I talked to the governor [McAuliffe] today, he called me, I told him I am going to do something whatever it takes to get gun legislation, to shame people, to legislators, into doing something about closing loopholes in background checks."  McAuliffe apparently encouraged Parker to speak out on the issue.  But when reporters asked McAuliffe whether the killer was prohibited from legally buying a gun, he replied:  "I don't know anything."  By late Wednesday night, it turned out that all their assumptions were wrong.  Vester Lee Flanagan, the killer, had legally bought the gun from a registered firearms dealer.  The so-called expanded background checks, which would have mandated background checks on private transfers, would have done nothing to stop this attack.  Indeed, such expanded background checks would not have stopped any of the mass public shootings that President Obama has frequently pointed to in justifying such a law.

Inside Vester Lee Flanagan's life.  Vester Lee Flanagan, the crazed gunman who executed on live morning TV two local journalists who worked at his former station, was told before being fired by the station to seek help for possible mental health issues — then lingered in Roanoke, Va., for more than two years, living in a squalor amid publicity photos of himself, porn and sex toys.  Vester Lee Flanagan, 41, who went by the professional name Bryce Williams, was ordered by his bosses at local TV station WDBJ to seek help for his frequent problems with coworkers, according to a July 30, 2012 company memo obtained by The Guardian.

Mental Health and the 2nd Amendment.  Despite the undeniable mental issues affecting black, gay Democrat Vester Flanagan, who was not sporting a Confederate flag before he shot and killed his two former KDBJ coworkers, reporter Alison Parker and photojournalist Adam Ward, the fact is that he passed a background check and legally possessed the Glock handgun he used.  As much as we all want to prevent the mentally unstable from possessing firearms, the fact is that there was nothing in Flanagan's background to prevent him from legally owning a firearm.

The shoe is now on the other foot.
Report: LGBT Rainbow Hate-Flag Found In WDBJ Killer's Virginia Apartment.  In a manifesto faxed to ABC News, Flanagan, an Obama-supporter, claimed that his motive involved a "race war."  Flanagan was black and gay and apparently angered by the fact that he had been a victim of racism and homophobia at the hands of "black men and white women."  Both of Flanagan's intended victims were straight.  The gay pride rainbow flag reportedly found in Flanagan's apartment is seen by many as a symbol of anti-Christian hate.  After a white racist terrorist in South Carolina murdered nine innocent black churchgoers, photos of the racist with the Confederate Flag resulted in a media frenzy to ban the flag.

Mental Health and the 2nd Amendment.  Despite the undeniable mental issues affecting black, gay Democrat Vester Flanagan, who was not sporting a Confederate flag before he shot and killed his two former KDBJ coworkers, reporter Alison Parker and photojournalist Adam Ward, the fact is that he passed a background check and legally possessed the Glock handgun he used.  As much as we all want to prevent the mentally unstable from possessing firearms, the fact is that there was nothing in Flanagan's background to prevent him from legally owning a firearm.

Cameraman Adam Ward Filmed Virginia Killer Bryce Williams Being Fired, Court Papers Reveal.  The parting words that Vester Lee Flanagan said to former colleague Adam Ward, the cameraman killed in this week's on-air shooting in Virginia, might have been prompted by Ward's decision to film Flanagan being fired from their news station two years ago, court records suggest. [...] A note about Ward filming the termination was revealed in a memo describing how the ex-TV reporter became combative and verbally aggressive after being informed of his termination.

TV reporter's father pledges full-scale fight for tougher gun control laws.  Speaking outside the Roanoke television station where his daughter worked, Parker said he's not against gun ownership in general, but stricter background checks are needed to keep guns away from mentally ill people.

Killer fired 17 shots during attack that took lives of TV reporters in Roanoke.  [Scroll down]  Flanagan wrote in a rambling 22-page letter sent to ABC News that the attack was spurred by the church shooting in Charleston, S.C., this summer.  He also claimed on Twitter that Parker had made racist comments and that Ward had reported him to human resources when he worked at WDBJ7.  Station officials have said there is no indication that any employee mistreated Flanagan.

Meet Vester Lee Flanagan, a loser and killer.  The world is better off without Vester Lee Flanagan because by his own hand he killed himself. Unfortunately, this racism-obsessed piece of filth took the lives of two innocent people before saying goodbye to the world.

Suddenly Media Worried Over Reporting Race-Based Motive of Killer of White Reporters.  During the reporting of the murders in a black church in Charleston, the assumed racist motive of the shooter, white man Dylann Roof, was immediately the talk of the media.  But now, after an African American murdered two white former co-workers and then released a 23-page, race-tinged manifesto, some in the media are suddenly squeamish about reporting the race-based motives of the killer.

Gunman who killed 2 former colleagues had long history of erratic workplace behavior.  The disgruntled former television reporter who murdered two of his former colleagues during a live interview Wednesday morning had a long history of erratic behavior at various workplaces, including acting aggressively toward co-workers and claiming racism was behind uncomplimentary evaluations.

Tortured past of the TV gunman.  Double killer Vester Flanagan lived in the shadow of a macho father who was a former American football star, it emerged yesterday [8/26/2015]. [...] It also remained doubtful yesterday that his devout Jehovah's Witness parents had been aware their son was gay.  It is believed Flanagan, 41 — who claimed he was abused by former TV colleagues over both his race and sexuality — worked as an escort while he was struggling to find a job in his early twenties.

We're Entering the Era of the First-Person Shooter.  In a world where all sides were immediately ready to ascribe motive and blame, we behaved just as he imagined we would.  The sick fascination, dragging our mouse to the link, the twitch of our index fingers, the dilation of our pupils in anticipation and horror.  Her expression, captured in a single frame, on Drudge, driving the bloody river of clicks.  The gun-control nannies were quick to assign agency to the weapon, not the man.  It all felt like the world was running down a track this grotesque killer knew we would.

Rush [Limbaugh]: [The] WDBJ Shooter [was] 'Revved Up' by the Media.  Talk radio host Rush Limbaugh argued that the WDBJ Shooter was "revved up" by the media's coverage of the Charleston church shooting on Thursday [8/27/2015].  Rush said, "Now, this Vester Flanagan guy.  He also said that the Charleston shooting is what got him.  That was the final straw.  So he went out and bought a gun a couple days later.  He bought the gun legally, by the way. [...] You know the one thing that stood out about the Charleston shooting to me?  I've never seen it before or since.  The unilateral, immediate forgiveness of the shooter by the families of those victims that were shot in that church." [...] The Drive-By Media hyped it.  They would not let it go.  The race hustlers hyped that incident, and we had to pull down the Confederate flag.  We had to have this whole dog and pony show.  The Confederate flag caused all this.

ATF Confirms Virginia Gunman Vester Flanagan Bought His Firearm 'Legally'.  On August 26 Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) spokesman Thomas Faison confirmed that Virginia gunman Vester Lee Flanagan bought his gun "weeks ago" and that "he apparently passed a background check" to get the gun.  The gun was a Glock 19 9mm.  According to ABC News, Faison said Flanagan bough the gun "legally."  And BuzzFeed reports that Faison said the ATF had recovered the weapon today [8/26/2015].

Vester Flanagan July Road Rage Caught on Video.  A YouTube video seems to capture race-war-craving Vester Flanagan confronting a driver after a road-rage incident over a month ago.

Black Man Kills Two White People for — Wait for It — Racism.  Vester Flanagan murdered two local television news employees today and posted a homemade video of the crime.  He was a black man.  The reason he chose to kill the two white people?  Racism.  I know you're shocked.  Reading statements made by WDBJ station management tells of a volatile man who sought out things in which to find offense. [...] Perhaps the weatherman said to "watch for black clouds tomorrow" or the station did a news report on "black holes."  For someone constantly looking for offense, it is easily found.  Especially for certain blacks in America who have been trained to believe that EVERY failure in their life is due to racism of white people.  Flanagan was no different.

A Gay, Black 'Victim' Shoots Two Straight, White Co-Workers Live on News.  Jeffrey Marks, WDBJ's president and general manager described Flanagan as "an unhappy man" and "difficult to work with," always "looking out for people to say things he could take offense to."  "Eventually after many incidents of his anger coming to the fore, we dismissed him.  He did not take that well," Marks said.  When he was fired, police had to escort him from the building.  Flanagan apparently faxed a 23-page manifesto to ABC, explaining his reasoning, if his ramblings can be called that, for shooting the two young journalists. [...] In the shooting aftermath, expect the usual voices to call for more control.  Existing laws obviously didn't stop a self-professed "powder keg" from buying a gun with intent to kill, so naturally the solution is more restrictions on guns.

On-Air Murderer Was A Black, Gay, Racist Fan of Serial Killers.  The fired former journalist known on camera as "Bryce Williams" who murdered two of his former collegues on air with a Glock 19 9mm pistol this morning [8/26/2015] was a black, gay, racist fan of serial killers.  By all means, take a few minutes to to unpack that sentence as there is a lot that was going on in this guy's head, and none of it was good.

Obama's Political Two-for-One: Using a Black Racist's Murders to Blame Guns and Minimize the Terror Threat.  While there's certainly evidence the shooter was deeply disturbed, the evidence is now overwhelming that this shooting was in large part about race.  The shooter wanted vengeance for Charleston, he wanted a "race war," and he was known for angry, unfounded accusations of racial persecution: [...] So, how does the President of the United States respond?  It's the guns of course, and the guns are worse than terrorists.

Obama's post-racial America: Black leftists dancing on the graves of dead white reporters.  Whenever something ugly happens like today, it always brings out the worst on social media.  Today, black leftists are now celebrating basically the fact that black racist Bryce Williams killed two white reporters and shot a third innocent person.  Check out some of the tweets of black leftists celebrating what happened today: [...]

Calls for 'Commonsense Gun Control' Re-Emerge after Virginia Shooting.  Illegally obtained guns, used by criminals who disobey laws, account statistically for the vast majority of gun-related crime in America.  If one were to employ common sense in discussing disarming the law-abiding, it would be readily apparent that solving this different and nonexistent problem is distinctly illogical and counter-intuitive.  Gun control, as envisioned by the left, is a "heads I win, tails you lose" proposition.  When discussing indisputable facts, including that the overwhelming number of deaths caused by the use of firearms occurs when those firearms are illegally obtained and possessed by black males in Democrat-controlled cities, the left argues that the problem is exclusively the gun and refuses dialogue on any other issue.

TV murderer was criticized by bosses for appalling journalistic standards and reprimanded for wearing an Obama badge to report on elections.  Warped TV reporter Vester Lee Flanagan exasperated bosses with his 'stiff and nervous' delivery, his inability to use a teleprompter — and by wearing a President Obama badge during an election report, Daily Mail Online can reveal. [...] Flanagan, 41, clashed repeatedly with photojournalists, belittling them in public and intimidating them with his violent temper, according to internal reports.  He was also censured for wearing an Obama sticker while recording a segment at a polling booth during the 2012 US Presidential Election — a clear breach of journalistic impartiality.

Manhunt for TV shooter ended on the side of a Virginia highway after a license plate reader found his rental car.  [Scroll down]  Overton said they tracked the vehicle as it traveled along Interstate 81 for hundreds of miles after the shooting.  A license plate reader was able to pick up the Sonic's location on Interstate 66 in Fauquier County, Virginia traveling east, where Virginia State Police Trooper Pamela Neff began to follow him until backup arrived to assist.

Initials of Charleston Church Victims Reportedly on Bullets Used By Virginia Gunman.  In a 23-page manifesto sent to ABC News, alleged Virginia gunman Vester Lee Flanagan said that the tipping point for the August 26 attack that took Allison Parker and Adam Ward's lives was the Charleston church attack and that the initials of the the Charleston shooting victims were on the bullets he allegedly fired today.

White House says Virginia TV shooting points to need for gun control.  The White House said on Wednesday [8/26/2015] that the shooting of two television journalists in Virginia is another example of gun violence that is "becoming all too common."  White House spokesman Josh Earnest told reporters that Congress can pass legislation that would have a "tangible impact of reducing gun violence in this country."

Yes, Dems Care More about Grabbing Guns Than About Victims of Violence.  We don't, at this point, know anything about how the shooter got the gun, or what measures at all would have prevented him from getting a gun, if any.  So it seems kind of ludicrous to suggest laws to fix a problem when you don't even know what the problem is.

Gov. Terry McAuliffe Admits Not Knowing How Gunman Acquired Firearm, Calls For More Gun Control.  Just hours after a gunman shot and killed WDBJ-TV's Allison Parker and Adam Ward just off camera during a live interview, Governor Terry McAuliffe admitted not knowing anything about how the gunman got his gun, yet the Governor stressed that more gun controls — specifically background checks — are needed.  Speaking on Fox News while a police chase of the gunman was underway, McAuliffe called for background check legislation.

Black, Gay Reporter Murders Straight, White Journalists — Media Blame the Gun.  On Wednesday, America met a deeply evil human being:  Vester Lee Flanagan II, also known as reporter Bryce Williams. [...] Williams marinated in his self-appointed victimhood status.  He filed a lawsuit against his Tallahassee, Florida employer, WTWC — a lawsuit settled out of court.  He filed a complaint with the with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against WDBJ after his firing — a complaint the EEOC dismissed.  According to WDBJ station manager Jeff Marks, Williams was "an unhappy man" with a "reputation as someone who had been difficult to work with... looking out for people to say things that he could take offense to."

Murder Most Foul.  There are people whose lives are so empty that anger is their oxygen.  F/W seems to have been in that camp, perhaps psychotically so, but is not the #BlackLivesMatter (and before them Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton) business model of seeing racism behind every tree and under every rock and in phrases like "the most qualified person should get the job" designed to foment just such anger?

Police: Gunman in deadly TV shooting kills himself.  A TV reporter and cameraman were shot to death during a live television interview on CBS Roanoke affiliate WDBJ-TV Wednesday [8/26/2015] by a gunman who recorded himself carrying out the killings and posted the video on social media after fleeing the scene.  Authorities identified the suspect as a journalist who had been fired from the station in 2013.  Hours later and hundreds of miles away, he ran off the road and a trooper found him with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.  He died at a hospital later Wednesday.

Police hunt 'disgruntled employee' believed to have killed 2 on live TV.  A picture is emerging of 41-year-old Vester Lee Flanagan, who professionally went by the name Bryce Williams, as someone who was difficult to work with, easily offended and sometimes feared in the newsroom.  In between his murderous rampage Wednesday morning and the time he ended his life with a self-inflicted gunshot wound before Noon, Williams sent a manifesto full of his angry ranting to ABC News.

Ex-TV employee who shot colleagues dead accused them of racism.  The suspect in a deadly on-air shooting of a reporter and a cameraman in Virginia was a disgruntled former colleague who posted videos of the murders to Twitter and accused the pair of racism.  Vester Lee Flanagan II, a former on-air reporter who worked under the name Bryce Williams, killed Alison Parker and Adam Ward from the Roanoke affiliate WDBJ.

Reporter, cameraman for WDBJ-TV in Virginia shot and killed during on-air report.  A gunman killed a reporter and videographer for a CBS affiliate in Virginia during a live broadcast Wednesday morning [8/26/2015].  Reporter Alison Parker, 24 and cameraman Adam Ward, 27 died in the shooting, Ms. Parker's mother confirmed to CBS news.  They were reporting for CBS Roanoke affiliate WDBJ-TV.

The 2001 Cincinnati Riots:

Some of the articles in this subsection have disappeared, but they have been left in place as invisible HTML comments.

ACLU approves landmark police deal:  A proposed settlement to a racial profiling lawsuit against Cincinnati police was approved today by the American Civil Liberties Union, the last party in the case to ratify the deal.

Vine Street:  What was the excuse this time?  There was no police shooting, no reverends shouting for justice this time — just 300 black people blocking Vine Street on Monday night [4/15/2002], pelting cars with rocks, bottles and eggs and yelling "get whitey."  Some cities would call that a riot.  Cincinnati didn't even call it a "disturbance."  The headline over a 3-inch story in the Enquirer the next day said, "Fight draws crowd; police close street."

The media's role in the Cincinnati race riotsCould Cincinnati's race riots been averted? Perhaps — if the media had promptly and properly done their job.  Instead of citing 15 police killings of blacks, the media could have emphasized that in 11 of those previous shootings, the police were fully justified; that in two, officers were killed or maimed by the person they shot.  In only two were the police apparently mistaken.

Riot Ideology and De-Policing:  A Seattle policeman explained de-policing as:  "Parking under a shady tree to work on a crossword puzzle is a great alternative to being labeled a racist and being dragged through an inquest, a review board, an FBI and U.S. attorney investigation, and a lawsuit."  According to columnist John Leo, that's precisely what's happening in Cincinnati in the wake of the city's recent riots.  There's less patrolling to prevent low-level crimes.  Policemen await 911 calls.  As a result, crime soars.

"De-policing" may be the response to racial profiling study.

Blacks pay dearly for riots.

Police frustration brings slowdown:  It's been almost three months since Cincinnati was gripped by race riots after police shot a fleeing man who was wanted on 14 misdemeanor warrants.  The Cincinnati Enquirer reports that "Cincinnati police are so demoralized that they are ignoring some minor crimes and looking for jobs in the suburbs."  Arrests are down 35%, and revenue from traffic tickets has fallen by about three-fourths.
