* Confrontation in Baltimore: Updates on Violence as Police Clash With Rioters
He described how he and some Bloods members stood in front of stores that they knew were black-owned business, to protect them from looting and vandalism. He said they made sure no black youths, or reporters, were injured by rioters.
Instead, he said, they pointed the rioters toward Chinese- and Arab-owned stores.
Freddie Gray’s death, he said, had brought Baltimore’s violent gangs together.
“I rolled over here on a truck and I was the only Crip, and everybody else was Bloods, and they didn’t do anything to me,” he said. “We’re together in this.”
* Some of the rioters were inspired by the Purge movies, so let’s blame Hollywood. Everyone knows that the entertainment industry is a bastion of white privilege. It’s a racist blight – a pus-spewing pimple on the lovely face of our mocha nation – and it needs to go.
In fact, I think it’s high-time that brothas everywhere go all Demolition Man* on those silver-screen-hogging honkeys. It’ll teach ‘em to stop giving all the Oscars to crackas.
Barring that, I think we need to start having (white) college graduates read books to little black babies. Everyone knows that white people aren’t smarter than blacks – whites talk more to their babies than blacks, and thus hear more words while growing up. This is the only reason why whites do better in school.
I tell you, if we could get black kids to listen to lots more multisyllabic words, all of our racial problems would be solved. The Gap is not genetic – blacks are so worn down by racism and discrimination that they can’t even say two words to one another.
(Spend some time around black people – you’ll notice how much quieter they are than whites.)
And, while we’re at it, let’s let all the blacks out of prison. They’ll be so grateful for the chance to start new lives that they’ll spend the rest of their days as model citizens. (Most of them are innocent, anyway – they were framed by racist cops.) They’ll become community leaders and transform our troubled slums into gleaming paradises of peace and love. You’ll see.
And if you tell me that I’m wrong about any of these things, then you are RACIST RACIST RACIST and you are on the wrong side of history. Our best days are yet to come.
* The mayor and city council spent much of the early news conference last night complaining that the local news media were focusing on the rioting and not on the good things that were happening in Baltimore. They looked like they were all definitely in over their heads with this rioting and started blaming the press for negative reporting.
* What I want to know is how the alt-right Rationalization Generator will deal with the fact that the anti-Israel propaganda they regurgitate with such glee, is not only made by the same people propagating anti-white propaganda, and not only uses the same tropes used in anti-white propaganda, but is now actually used interchangeably and in the same breath as anti-white propaganda.
Is Ayatollah Khomeni now in the pay of the Zionist shills clamouring for the the disenfranchisement of the American core? Inquiring minds want to know.
* Who could imagine that the 1950s Vann Woodward consensus “if we just give blacks a share of the elite racial problems would go away” model is breaking down.
* I suspect the so-called “rioters” are Clinton Foundation operatives in blackface bent on destroying the legacy of Baltimore’s former mayor Martin O’Malley before O’Malley can get his “Stop Hillary” campaign off the ground.
* The fertility rate of black women is (at 2.1) precisely at the replacement level and only about 15% higher than that of white women. Blacks make up 13% of the population, precisely the same share they made up in 1860 and a lower share than they made up at the end of the colonial period.
* About 10 years ago I was traveling by train from NYC to Wash DC. Some time into the trip the outside caught my attention: it looked like we were passing thru a 3rd world urban shithole. I could literally not believe my eyes: this is America?! So the next time one walked thru the car, I asked a member of the crew which city we had just passed — he said Baltimore.
Since then nothing I hear about Baltimore surprises me. ‘Baltimore as seen from an Amtrak train’ would make quite an eye-opening video for Americans.
Lastly, here is what the CIA World Factbook says about Liberia, which has been an independent nation since around 1850, and where Whites are not allowed to be citizens:
Liberia is a low income country that relies heavily on foreign assistance.
And that is what’s wrong with Baltimore.
* The mayor is a rank-and-file attorney who worked in the public defender’s office. She likely is in over her head attempting to superintend a public bureaucracy the dimensions of Baltimore’s with the challenges Baltimore had. She’s also likely addled by the fallacies someone in her position holds to in order to avoid acknowledging unpleasant realities. On top of that is the sheer lack of imagination of many municipal officials.
* Random observations: #1 – As many have said, no gun control in sight; it would be interesting to see what gun sales will be like this week. How many women will get their first weapon on Mother’s Day? #2 – Letting these riots fizzle out on their own is good in one way in that there are few if any lives lost, but it just means more riots, and more misery in AA communities. #3 – You can expect more white flight and more serious problems in big cities with large black populations, regardless of what people say or how they vote: feet don’t know how to rationalize. #4 – Coates came up with a column on The Atlantic, arguing that this was just a case of black folks showing disrespect to the police who in turn have disrespected them: that does not work, the Arab and Chinese storekeepers targeted by the mob have nothing to do with it, nor do the white women having their purses grabbed.
In a way, anyone who is condoning these riots is being paternalistic in a particularly condescending way, they are saying that black folks are intrinsically stupid and incapable of impulse control, such that it’s only natural for them to lash out in self-destructive ways.
* Baltimore has a black police chief.
We were told the problem in Ferguson was no black police chief.
A lot of things that libs think that are needed, Baltimore already has.
* Maybe they just need more Starbucks in Baltimore …… #racetogether
* Have Negroes, Will Riot.
* Of the worst 100 riots since WWII, roughly 100 of been led by blacks. The only possible exception might be the ’68 Chicago Democratic convention hippie v police riot, though even that involved the fairly black SDS radicals trying to get local blacks to riot.
* Only group dumb enough to jump at the media’s call is Urban Black America. Not rural blacks, not middle class or academic blacks. No one else. Need low impulse control, low future time orientation, low processing of possible consequences and low information news gatherers.
