Black, Gay Reporter Murders Straight, White Journalists — Media Blame The Gun
by Ben Shapiro. On Wednesday, America met a deeply evil human being: Vester Lee Flanagan II, also known as reporter Bryce Williams. Williams murdered two people while they were live on air on WDBJ in Virginia: reporter Alison Parker, and cameraman Adam Ward. After the murders, he went on the run – and while he was on the run, ... MOREThomas Sowell: Is The Civil War Over?
Ethnic grievance industry focused on the past. In the wake of the recent murders in a South Carolina church, the killer's hope of igniting a race war produced the opposite effect. Blacks and whites in South Carolina came together to condemn his act and the race hate behind it. Some saw in the decision to remove the Confederate flag from ... MORECop Pulls Black Man Over For Seatbelt Violation; Shoots Him When He Follows Order To Produce License (VIDEO)
See the unbelievable video. A black man has come out in support of police body cameras after he was gunned down by a white officer during a traffic stop and writhed in agony on the ground saying: 'Why did you shoot me sir?' Levar Jones, 36, who has no criminal record and was on his way home from his job at a Subway café, said the horror of his ... MOREMatt Barber: Starbucks Spills Coffee On Its Crotch
A PC backfire. Espresso makes you hyper. When you’re hyper you sometimes make rash decisions. When you make rash decisions you usually regret it. Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz evidently chugged a Venti-five-shot-double-pump-skinny-vanilla-latte last week before announcing Starbucks’ new “RaceTogether” public relations stunt. As he ... MORERobby Soave: Frat Brothers Make Execrable Racist Statements, America Forgets The First Amendment
Intolerance is all the rage at college campuses. Outrage over racist chanting at a Sigma Alpha Epsilon event at the University of Oklahoma is spilling over to other campuses, prompting concerns about systemic racism at that fraternal organization and within college Greek life as a whole. At the same time, lots of people who should know ... MORE
Thomas Sowell: The 'Disparate Impact' Racket
Group disparities are common. The U.S. Department of Justice issued two reports last week, both growing out of the Ferguson, Missouri shooting of Michael Brown. The first report, about "the shooting death of Michael Brown by Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson" ought to be read by every American. It says in plain English what facts ... MOREChristopher Mathias: NYC Police Commish William Bratton Says Cops Responsible For 'Worst Parts' Of Black History
Pandering attempt fails to impress. New York City Police Commissioner William Bratton acknowledged on Tuesday that police were to blame for "many of the worst parts of black history" in the United States. Yet advocates for police reform say the comments are merely lip service from an official who continues to reinforce the city's ... MOREMatt Agorist: Shock Video Shows Cops Run Down Man With Cruiser, Severely Beat Him, Charge Him With Assault
Can we all agree these cops are racist? Surveillance cameras reveal the truth. Two Philly cops have been charged with the assault of a man after surveillance footage revealed the officers lied about the incident. The laundry list of charges that Officers Kevin Robinson and Sean McKnight are facing is lengthy: Aggravated Assault, Simple ... MORERight From The Dashcam: Seattle PD’s Arrest Of Black Man Is Every Problem With The Justice System In A Nutshell
A law unto themselves. If there were a video and accompanying story that could be used as a
textbook example of every problem with our criminal justice system, this
is it. First, watch the cruiser cam video (you only need watch from
1:40 to 7:40). What the video shows is Wingate standing motionless at the crosswalk and Officer Whitlatch ... MOREWalter E Williams: Liberals' Use Of Black People - Part II
Life on the liberal plantation. Last week's column focused on the ways liberals use blacks in pursuit of their leftist agenda, plus their demeaning attitudes toward black people. Most demeaning are their double standards. It was recently reported that Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., the House majority whip, spoke at a 2002 gathering hosted by ... MOREThomas Sowell: Who's Responsible?
Playing fast and loose with the race card. The cold-blooded murder of two New York City policemen as they sat in their car is not only an outrage but also a wake-up call. It shows, in the most painful way, the high cost of having demagogues, politicians, mobs and the media constantly taking cheap shots at the police. Those cheap shots ... MOREWalter E Williams: Black Progression And Retrogression
What if racism is not the problem? There is no question, though it's not acknowledged enough, that black Americans have made greater gains, over some of the highest hurdles and in a very short span of time, than any other racial group in mankind's history. What's the evidence? If black Americans were thought of as a nation with their own gross ... MOREWalter E Williams: Can Racial Discrimination Explain Much?
Rationalization is not reason. In the medical profession, there is the admonition primum non nocere, the Latin expression for "first, do no harm." In order not to do harm, at the minimum, requires accurate diagnostics. Suppose a patient presents with abdominal pains, and the physician diagnoses it as caused by the patient's ingrown ... MOREEmily Elkins: Why Police Officers Keep Claiming Their Unarmed Victims Had Guns, and What We Can Do About It
The undue influence of stereotypes. Police officers keep claiming that they genuinely thought their
unarmed victims had lethal weapons. Ferguson police officer Darren
Wilson, who shot unarmed black teenager Michael Brown,
claims in his grand jury testimony that Brown put his right
hand “under his shirt in his waistband” and then lunged at ... MORE'Acting White' Remains a Barrier for Black Education
by John McWhorter. Here we go
again. A black woman has articulately battled
the idea that using standard English is "acting white" in a
video that has gone viral of late, and
Jamelle Bouie at Slate has called her out for propagating a
myth that black students devalue school. In the eighties, (black)
anthropologist John Ogbu
with Signithia ... MOREPoll: 51% Of Dems Support Criminalizing Hate Speech
First Amendment is so yesterday. Note: Hate speech, not hate crimes. YouGov asked people about hate crimes for its poll too and found bipartisan support for the federal law that provides steeper penalties for crimes motivated by hatred of the victim’s race, religion, gender, or national origin. Sixty-four percent of Dems gave thumbs-up to ... MORE
