Here\u2019s what could really keep people from shooting each other.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Gun violence is most acute among young black men. The National Council on Crime and Delinquency says the homicide rate per 100,000 of white males between 15 and 19 years old is 1.8. For Hispanic males, it\u2019s 14.6.<\/p>\n<p>For African American males, it\u2019s a staggering 50.6 per 100,000.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Let me repeat that: for white males 15-19, 1.8\/100,000. For Hispanics, 14.6\/100,000. For blacks, 50.6\/100,000. 1.8 vs. 14.6 vs. 50.6. Hmmm, what (or who) could be the problem?<\/p>\n<p>Next, the MSM&#8217;s rearguard action against UVA on the topic of sexual assault: <a href=https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/education\/he-said-it-was-consensual-she-was-blacked-out-u-va-had-to-decide-was-it-assault\/2016\/07\/14\/4211a758-275c-11e6-ae4a-3cdd5fe74204_story.html >https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/education\/he-said-it-was-consensual-she-was-blacked-out-u-va-had-to-decide-was-it-assault\/2016\/07\/14\/4211a758-275c-11e6-ae4a-3cdd5fe74204_story.html<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><b>He said it was consensual. She was blacked out. U-Va. had to decide: Was it assault?<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Apparently, the MSM is still trying to gin up a &#8220;controversy&#8221; at UVA, but let&#8217;s look at the facts of the case:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><b>She unwrapped the condom and placed it on him<\/b>, he said&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>According to the U-Va. report, an older resident of the house became aware that Lind and the freshman athlete were inside the bathroom and angrily climbed out onto a second story roof to slam on the window and get their attention. He yelled at them to break it up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<b>Would you just give us a minute?<\/b>\u201d Lind said, the older resident told investigators&#8230;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Here, let&#8217;s make out and then let me invite you upstairs and put a condom on you&#8230; Rape! Rape! Rape! Hey, who&#8217;s banging on the window? In a minute &#8211; we&#8217;ll get out of your hair once my assailant is done raping me, all right?<\/p>\n<p>The result of the university investigation: <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Ultimately, the investigators concluded that the freshman athlete had no way to know that Lind had blacked out. Because he had just met her, and because she was capable of carrying on a conversation, walking upstairs and performing \u201cfine motor tasks, such as unwrapping a condom,\u201d he was unaware of her \u201cpossible incapacitation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In short, how was he supposed to know how drunk she was? <b>The investigators determined that there was insufficient evidence<\/b> to determine that the freshman was responsible for sexually assaulting Lind. [Boldfaces mine.]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>And the actual criminal-legal angle:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p> Charlottesville Assistant Commonwealth\u2019s Attorney Libby Killeen declined to comment on the possibility of charges against the freshman athlete. Charlottesville police Capt. Gary Pleasants said last week that the investigation into the matter has been \u201csuspended,\u201d effectively meaning that it is no longer active.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Hmmm, where did I hear of another &#8220;suspended&#8221; sexual assault investigation in Charlottesville?<\/p>\n<p>And finally, this wonderful headline: <a href=http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2016\/07\/12\/upshot\/surprising-new-evidence-shows-bias-in-police-use-of-force-but-not-in-shootings.html >http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2016\/07\/12\/upshot\/surprising-new-evidence-shows-bias-in-police-use-of-force-but-not-in-shootings.html<\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><b>Surprising New Evidence Shows Bias in Police Use of Force but Not in Shootings<\/b><\/p>\n<p>But when it comes to the most lethal form of force \u2014 police shootings \u2014 the study finds no racial bias.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Got that? Surprise! A black Harvard economist ran the numbers and there is no racial bias in police shootings. &#8220;No racial bias.&#8221; Now, let&#8217;s look at the actual finding regarding officer-involved shootings buried deeply in the article: <\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>In shootings in these 10 cities involving officers, <b>officers were more likely to fire their weapons<\/b> without having first been attacked <b>when the suspects were white<\/b>. Black and white civilians involved in police shootings were equally likely to have been carrying a weapon. Both results undercut the idea of racial bias in police use of lethal force. [Boldfaces mine.]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know about the rest of you, but that strikes me as racial bias&#8230; against white suspects. So, if I got this line of reasoning correctly, if the result indicated that blacks were more likely to be shot, then there IS racial bias, but if it turned out &#8211; as is indicated by the actual data &#8211; that whites are more likely to be shot, then there is &#8220;no racial bias.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>* The surveillance state is politically correct.<\/p>\n<p>Consider:<\/p>\n<p>It employs large numbers of affirmative-action bureaucrats (TSA).<br \/>\nIt creates large government contracts for the connected (G4S).<br \/>\nIt scratches the militaristic itch.<br \/>\nIt is in theory, impossible for machines to discriminate<\/p>\n<p>The solutions to the terrorism\/black crime problem are quite obvious, racial profiling, civilian gun ownership and paternalistic shaming of black culture\/banning Muslim immigration.<\/p>\n<p>But those solutions would \u201callow our enemies to defeat us by causing us to abandon our (((liberal))) values.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>* I disagree with Ann Coulter and others\u2019 view that Trump picking Pence is a mistake.<\/p>\n<p>Trump simply cannot run without the support of the GOP establishment, which is basically divided three ways: Koch-plex wants Pence, The Jews want Newt, the SoCons want Cruz.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at these three groups, the Koch-plex is the most important of the three groups by a large margin. It is also the least supportive of him right now.<\/p>\n<p>The RCP poll average right now is Hillary 44.0\tTrump 40.9. There are a ton of undecideds still, and some of them are conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>Putting a Koch-loyalist as VP is a good move. It gets their network\u2019s support, which is unrivaled in the GOP, and larger than the RNC and all 50 state parties combined.<\/p>\n<p>Mitt Romney is a pretty smart guy, and he put a Koch-loyalist on his ticket.<\/p>\n<p>Pence\u2019s open boarders record is almost as bad as Ryan\u2019s. But is the view of both of the Koch Brothers too, and they do not like dissent on this issue. I don\u2019t like it, but Trump needs them to win.<\/p>\n<p>* I\u2019m an American and a member of the Front National. Just go to their website and provide them with the pertinent information. I think that they accept credit cards. You\u2019ll get a nice membership card with Marine Le Pen (although I wanted one with Marion Marechal Le Pen) on it. So I\u2019m now a \u201ccard-carrying\u201d FN member. It makes me feel slightly better\u2013at least I\u2019m doing something.<\/p>\n<p>* \u201cThe National Council on Crime and Delinquency says the homicide rate per 100,000 of white males between 15 and 19 years old is 1.8. For Hispanic males, it\u2019s 14.6.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>* Of course, way way back in 1968, a highly significant year for the French for reasons which we can now see are totally irrelevant to the grand course and sweep of history, a pointless wrong course if there ever was one, Enoch Powell made his famous \u2018Rivers of Blood\u2019 speech.<br \/>\nThis, of course, prophesied the future dystopia of England, though France was \u2018busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre\u2019 too.<br \/>\nI\u2019d hate to personally witness the carnage caused by a 10 ton truck ploughing into a parade of human flesh, but I\u2019d imagine \u2018rivers of blood\u2019 would be an apt description.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The military can be good at governing otherwise ungovernable situations.
