Black Power



From the American Thinker:

Racial Violence Has Not Made It Into The Conversation About Race

I'm glad somebody is bringing up this subject.

The double standard is appalling. It is ludicrous to think that only white people are capable of racism and hate crimes, yet when a minority commits such the MSM gives them a free pass.

Absolutely. Checking recent "flash mob" stories, you'd have to watch the video or refer to a picture of the incident to see the racial composition of the crowd. This biased under-reporting only serves to encourage this bad behavior.

Of course, the actions of Obama's Justice Department doesn't discourage thuggish behavior either.

These thugs have friends in high places and they know it.

The double standard is appalling. This is another example of the failure that liberalism is.

It's a fascinating topic. I remember watching TV news as a child...If a crime was committed and a description of a possible subject was available, well the newsperson would give it to you..."the suspect was described as a .." black male, white male hispanic male...Whatever. Now? I defy you to find any example of a news broadcast that will give a description of suspect wherein the description has anything to do with race. Who cares if theres a dangerous person running around you neighborhood? as long as we don't offend.

No time for this, Eric Holder is too busy investigating police departments

WomanHonorThyself: Unfortunately, I think you're right.

Teresa: Liberalism is a failure. Just try telling the liberals that.

Annoying Joe: I remember the old days too. Today's politically correct environment is insane. They do the same thing with the moslems. It was like pulling teeth to get the media to admit that the Ft. Hood shooter was a moslem.

Chuck: I wasn't able to open the link. I tried running a search at Salon but couldn't find the article you referenced.

Holder is also too busy letting off Black Panther thugs who intimidate white voters at the polls.

Another case in point:

Random Attacks Cause Concern In Chicago

Along with 2 juveniles, three other teens were charged with robbery as adults: Dvonte Sykes, Trovolus Pickett and Derod'te Wright.

Although one might reasonably infer that these teens are black from their names, no mention of race is made in the article.
