A. Let's separate robberies and property crime, which are more a matter of looking for who has money. The kind of mindless violence we have repeatedly seen in fast food joints, buses, subways, etc is almost always racial hatred, often amped up by bullying or a perceived need to avenge the kinds of affronts normal people shrug off. I blame most of this on race hustlers like Jesse Jackson and Sharpton, and a considerable amount on the so-called mainstream civil rights community, which has a huge financial stake in keeping blacks angry and feeling persecuted. You tell a person that whites hate them enough times, they believe it and start to believe they are justified in resorting to violence. Politicians also are to blame for the same reasons. Demagogues like obama go out and say responsible attempts to start a conversation about getting the budget in balance are nothing but genocide and attacks on the poor. It has an effect. B. Solutions are twofold. One, judges have to stop coddling juvenile violence. Maryland is notorious for light sentences on violent criminals. I doubt these thugs see any jail time. One is a juvenile and the other is 18. The other is for the media and public servants to start demanding accountability. They are quick to call out Sarah Palin for a website, but they will never demand that the democrats divorce themselves from figures like Jackson and Sharpton. Obama is the worst offender, if only because of his position. He calls for civility, then turns around and demagogues the budget issue in the rawest terms.
Yes, but at the same time the problems are getting worse and worse. So, it would really only make perfect sense to post more actively about them. It would have been absurd to make as many posts as some people do in the 50s, for example. Also, the error I see is that trade schools are already widely available, ESPECIALLY to blacks and latinos. They get preference on admissions, extra funding, the schools have quotas which set minimums for the amount of minorities they must admit. These minorities already have huge advantages in terms of education. After they get admitted with the more lax admissions standards and with extra funding, they have all kinds of racial and ethnic student organizations which offer resources to help them succeed in school. At my school there are black student unions, latino achievement outreach organizations, and so forth. MANY of them. Also, the Affirmative Action policies which have given them excessive over representation in nearly all government departments, and the pressure of government on large corporations to hire non Caucasians. I mean, what else do you really want to give them? I'd argue that your education/trade school suggestion has already been implemented, and then some. Yet another problem I see with this is that you can't really legislate human nature. If a certain ethnic group sets their own ethnocultural standards, and their own values, and their own expectations, for whatever reason (cultural, genetic, astrology, whatever explanation you ascribe to) that's what will determine group outcomes. Honestly, and please don't bite my head of for this as I'm not saying it in spite, but I think YOUR suggestions are fairly racist. Please read my explanation with an open mind, and try not to bite my my head off too hard . In short, I believe the question of "inferior" or "superior" races is an issue for assholes to debate, and I don't want any part of it; the races are different, and have different types of ethnocultural societies they prefer, and that objectively is clear. I don't view that as insulting to African-Americans or any other ethnic group; in fact it's the opposite: the highest respect I can grant to any group is to insist that they be allowed to do things their own way, since otherwise is to presume that my way is better, and thus to impose it upon them as an "improvement" over what they are. That's crass racism, no matter how much we disguise it as Judeo-Christian liberalism. Funny how all these advocates for "diversity" are the very ones who hatefully attack any notion that we aren't all identical. These "diversity" cheer leaders seem to hate anyone who says that we aren't all the same. Am I the only one who thinks that's hypocritical?
I don't see this particular incident as unique, it has become part of Americana. Stormfront has all kinds of links to all kinds of videos...all of them black on white stuff...not white on black. So is this particular incident really headline news? Don't you think there are actually more important stories out there? What is actually going to change from this incident? Will McDonalds now employ armed security guards? Maybe. Will police handle things differently? I doubt it. Will people stop filming these things? Nope. Will violence increase in America as poverty continues to increase? I've predicted several years ago as such. If this is not actually a race driven event...does it matter to you? You can google "Murders" at googlenews and find all kinds of horrific stuff, men killing their wives and children, black, white, hispanic. I don't need to tune into each video...do you? Why do you want to watch this stuff? What is your solution?
Addressing 3 & 5. All the education available won't help unless the black man can find their way back to a two parent household, instead of just laying that responsibility on the woman, which is usually very young and poorly educated herself. Until that happens they will live in ignorance and a self perpetuating culture of violence. Lot's of people both black and white making a damn good living off keeping it that way. Your post was right on the money.
I've long stipulated that if the KKK had more brains and money (OK, a &#^*ing #@*& of a lot more brains and money), they still could not have drafted a better plan to keep blacks down then the left has successfully implemented. They are systemically locked into hardship with their jailers (Sharpton, Jackson, democrats in general, etc.) carefully keeping them behind bars. The civil rights movement was 50 years ago, for crying out loud. Yet the number one cause of death for black young men is sudden lead poisoning. Are they marching, are they demonstrating, are they upset about that? Nope. The number one problem facing black america today is disincentives to success and solid families via government handouts. Try to cut those disincentives and you are labeled a racist. It is a very interesting lesson to watch the victims of all of this be so determined to keep themselves repressed. There's no way the KKK could have pulled this off. It took a much better, more more organized, much more efficient group - liberals.
http://bit.ly/gMucvT Well folks, we have the guy that was shooting the video. The video was taken by McDonaldâs worker Vernon Hackett, according to The Smoking Gun. Hackett, who has worked at McDonald's in Rosedale since September 2009, claimed credit for the video on his Facebook account, which he has since taken down. At one point the employee can be heard laughing hysterically at the violence in front of him.
