THIS is the Kind of Idiocy That Police Have to Deal With All the Time

Taurus Brown

From this account: "While both men were at a gas station, Brown walked up to May to tell the cop how he dreamed of one day joining the force, too.

As the two shook hands, May recognized Brown: The 19-year-old was a gang member in the Florida community, May said. The cop also noticed a blunt behind Brown’s ear.

When May asked the see the blunt, Brown happily turned it over and said it was a cigar.

“Is this weed?” the cop asked. “How stupid are you?”

May asked the teen to put his hands behind his back. That’s when Brown “tensed, pulled away, and attempted to run out of the front door.” The cop ran after him, and quickly tackled Brown to the floor.

“Damn, man, all this for weed. Wow, bro, you must want to make an arrest,” Brown said May took him down.

He added: “I know I did wrong, but I don’t wanna go to jail for this … I’ll plead guilty. I’ll go to court and plead guilty. Please don’t take me to jail. Can you tell the judge I plead guilty?”

Then, May asked the teen why he tried to run from a cop.

“I don’t like white people touching me, white people do weird stuff,” the teen said.

May pressed the issue further and asked why Brown thought white people are weird.

“Nah, I’m playing. I let you catch me,” the teen said. “White people are weird as f--k, doe.” (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/crime/teen-flees-don-white-people-touching-article-1.2351670?cid=bitly)

WHY is THIS kind of all too common blatant racism ignored?

Again, outlets like CNN are entirely complicit in all this. The way they've recklessly and irresponsibly covered the "Black Lives Matter" movement, with a decidedly anti-police and anti-WHITE bent has encouraged and emboldened the most violent and emotionally disturbed of the thugs among us.

The WRONG Reaction to Black Bigotry

Nathan Ener

While the outrage is understandable in the wake of recent police assassinations, the approach is divisive and destructive.
(http://www.rawstory.com/…/a-thugs-life-dont-matter-texas-r…/)

I also DON'T like the editorializing within such "news" stories. This guy's controversial, even misguided in some of his views, but for a media that NEVER uses the "racist" tag on black racists like Sharpton, Malik Shabazz and others, it has no standing on which to use it for others. It's really just as simple as that.

There's a LOT that separates blacks and whites. The two groups tend to see the world entirely differently, but no two individuals ever view this world the same...so why would we expect entire groups to do so? But WHY exacerbate that?

We've been very good at polarizing and making enemies of each other, a lot less so at reaching out to the other side in trying to figure out solutions, but then again, swinging a hammer, or a sword has always been a lot easier than mapping out uncharted territory.

Now, there are some who'd say that Nathan Ener's call to arms is no different than that of Rashard Turner's of the BlackLivesMatter (BLM) movement, but there's one pretty important difference. Whereas the BLM movement is based entirely upon LIES - more whites are killed by police than blacks and when adjusted for violent crime rates, whites are nearly TWICE as likely to be killed by police as blacks, AND black incarceration rates are entirely due to the disproportionate violent crime rates of that group - Nathan Ener's call is a reaction to very REAL, recent events - the spate of recent police assassinations by deranged followers of the BLM narrative.

The problems with Mr. Ener's approach is (1) it is lawless and as such undermines ALL respect for the rule of law and (2) it buys into that "US vs THEM" viewpoint that makes enemies of everyone in that "other" group, no matter how good, decent or productive they might be. THAT'S a BIG problem.

While ALL of this is troubling, Nathan Ener is NO MORE "racist" nor even "troubling" than those, like Rashard Turner, in the Black Lives Matter movement...but NO LESS, either.

America's Newest Nazis...

In the past, most of America's hardcore hate groups were mostly "goober creations," neo-nazis, skinheads and KKKers, but today that's all changing, thanks to groups like the New Black Panther Party, the Black Israelites, among others. (http://www.breitbart.com/texas/2015/08/31/armed-black-panthers-to-texas-cops-we-will-start-creeping-up-on-you-in-the-darkness/)

All it proves is just as sure as there are white goobers, there are black goobers, as well.

The Criminal Justice system has always come down hard on the neo-nazis and skinheads (and for good reason), so there’s certainly no reason to let up now, just because today's nazis look a little different.

The Problem With Racializing Events

America's National Media Plays Along....With the BIG LIE

Some events very much ARE racial/ethnic in nature, but many others are not, but it’s easy to racialize even non-racial events because race/ethnicity is easy to see, while ideology isn’t.

For instance, the “Black Lives Matter” (BLM) movement grew out of, what appears to be a wrongheaded, view that police shoot and kill more black people than members of any other ethnic group.

That turns out to be false.

It turns out that despite the widely held view that black Americans are systemically targeted by the police, analysis shows that more white people die at the hands of law enforcement officers than any other race.

Peter Moskos, an assistant professor at New York City University’s John Jay College of Criminal Justice, has concluded that during the period ranging from May 2013 to April of 2015 roughly 49% of those killed by LEOs were white, while only 30% were black.

The stats are even more glaring when such deaths are adjusted for the homicide rates. Then data shows that whites are 1.7 times more likely than blacks die at the hands of police,” Moskos said.

Moskos added, “Adjusted for the racial disparity at which police are feloniously killed, whites are 1.3 times more likely than blacks to die at the hands of police.” (http://www.thefederalistpapers.org/us/study-more-whites-killed-by-police-than-blacks)

It’s easy to see why the radicalized BLM movement would be seen as representing black America, even though they clearly do not.  The faces of that movement are indeed black, the areas in which they organize are predominantly black and all of us, in school are taught to generalize from the local to the global, from the specific to the more general, predisposing us to such generalizations socially, as well.

While it turns out that the BLM movement very much DOES represent a specific sub-set of African-Americans, it is also a sub-set that has been grossly overlooked by Americans who’ve too often subsumed them into the larger black community, which is highly unfortunate, because it gives such radicalized groups the perceived cover of representing larger “group grievances,” when they, in fact, DO NOT.

It’s similar to the mistaken way we view serial killers. When most people think of serial killers they reflexively think of the likes of John Wayne Gacey, Ted Bundy, the “BTK killer” (Dennis Rader), Ed Gien, the “Green River Killer” (Gary Ridgway), Jeffrey Dahmer, etc.

What do ALL those serial killers have in common?

They’re all white.

It turns out that the list of black serial killers is also very long. Including the likes of Matthew Emanuel Macon (Murdered and Raped 5 White Women in Lansing), Shelly Brooks (Murdered 7 prostitutes in Detroit Cass Corridor), Brian Ranard Davis (6 women known murdered), Paul Durousseau (Seven women), Mark Goudeau “The Baseline Killer” (Eight women and a man in 2005-2006), Coral Eugene Watts (11 women in Texas & 1 in Michigan)among many others.

In other words, many of our initial suppositions about the racialization of things is wrong.

The reason that’s important is that it takes away the focus on those dysfunctional people in every group and, by blaming an entire ethnic group, regular, average people from such groups are put on the defensive, which gives even further cover to the dysfunctional among us all.

That FYF911 or FukYoFlag group down in Texas is, without question, a vile hate group that has to be dealt with. From its verbiage and the most recent result, it’s very similar to the Zebra Killers in California a few decades ago. The Zebra Killings were made much harder to solve because of the false perception that that group (1) didn’t actually exist (an initial mistaken view), (2) the media’s fears that focusing on the obvious racial element in that group might inflame anti-black bigotry overall...again, subsuming a fringe, radicalized group into the larger whole. A graphic history of the Zebra Killings can be found (http://www.heretical.com/miscella/zebra.html).

Ironically enough, racializing, or generalizing smaller subsets as representing the larger group makes it harder to discern the actual truth and more difficult to bring the violently dysfunctional to justice.

Let’s hope that we can learn from the past and NOT give Ms. “Sunshine” and her FYF911 group the latitude that the Zebra Killers got back in the 1970s. While FYF911 IS very much a “black group,” it very much DOES NOT represent much of black America.

The BLM Farce

Here's the problem I see with today’s “Black Lives Matter” anti-police agenda...ANYTHING less than complete and docile compliance with a Police Officer's directions during a stop constitutes "actively resisting arrest."

That has been taken far too lightly by the judicial system up to now. Given the present climate, the discretion of prosecutors to drop such charges must be eliminated and that charge must be elevated to a felony.

In the wake of the TWO autopsies and the DOJ’s investigation, there's virtually no remaining doubt that Mike Brown attacked Police Officer, Darren Wilson. ALL Officer Wilson did that day was fight for his life against a violent offender.

It appears that Christian Taylor (the football player shot in an Arlington, TX car dealership did the same. It turns out that, "In December, he took to Twitter to condemn racist policing. And a few weeks before he died, friends and family said, a religious awakening left him talking obsessively about social justice and his desire to be a black leader.

“He said MLK, he was a peaceful-type dude, but Malcolm X, he was getting the business done,” said his friend J’von Varra, 20, recalling a recent conversation with Taylor at a local park. “He said he felt like sometimes you have to be destructive to get what you want."...

“He said that on his break, God came to him and he cried and cried. It really changed his life,” said Smith, who had lived across the street from Taylor since the seventh grade and was his teammate on the Mansfield Summit High School football team.

“He said God came to him not only to get himself right, but to get us all on board. He wanted to save everybody.”

"Friends said Taylor cared passionately about social justice issues, an interest apparent in his Twitter feed. “Every time I see a squad car I think about all the lives lost...I’ve never felt protected,” he wrote on Dec. 11, one of several such tweets around that time."

Sad to say, but it seems that Christian Taylor became radicalized by a false BLM narrative. IF those stopped would simply comply with ALL police directives, there'd be far fewer such incidents AND more bad cops (they truly are few and far between) would be brought to justice.

This SHOULDN'T BE a black/white issue, because it ISN’T an ethnic issue, it's a scumbag/producer issue.

Yesterday (Friday, August 14^th, 2015) on Staten Island, a career thug opened fire on U.S. Marshalls serving a warrant, then shot an FDNY Lieutenant as that fire crew responded to a house fire at that location.

The authorities negotiated with this goon for hours, even brought his Mom up from another state, before they finally took him out with a sniper. His addled mother's response? "They brought me up here to witness my son's execution."

NO! All that's on her. She was brought there to talk that shitbird into surrendering SHE failed. SHE'S the reason (HER FAILURE) is the reason he wound up getting put down.

This isn't England where people are free to negotiate, even argue with police. "Docile compliance" with ALL police orders is mandated by law in the U.S.. The courts exist to adjudicate wrongful arrest and brutality complaints.

I have ZERO sympathy with those who mistakenly believe they have a right to question, challenge or confront police.

Cops are NOT social workers. They merely exist to bring suspected lawbreakers into the system. The courts avail us of the ability to question, challenge, confront...and where appropriate to sue over improper state/police practices.

Nothing tells the story like a “progressive success!” Since the Freddie Gray incident arrests are down by almost 50% and violent crime is on a record pace. With 45 Homicides in July became Baltimore’s deadliest month since 1972! (http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2015/07/31/july-is-baltimores-3rd-most-deadliest-month-in-history/). Baltimore residents live in fear of perpetual violence. The anti-police agenda won and the thugs have taken that city. The other residents live in abject terror.

Moreover, the decent residents of such areas DO NOT hate, or fear the police.

Predominantly black Memphis residents post blue balloons in solidarity with police after cop is shot there

According to Kevin Jackson of Black Sphere; “Citizen journalism is what will keep America strong, and fight the scourge of the Left.

“The Left are scandalous, as they set their fake narratives, force-feeding Americans their nonsense.

“When the police officer Sean Bolton was ambushed and shot in Memphis, TN recently, this black neighborhood put blue balloons up as a tribute to the fallen officer.

“Why didn’t the lamestream media report this? Because it doesn’t fit the narrative.

“Black people don’t all hate the police. They know that the police are necessary, and in fact, many of our family members and friends are police officers.

“But with Liberals, they want blacks to NOT respect the police.

“Snitches get stitches.”

“The disservice done to blacks by the media is scandalous. Many blacks live in the most dangerous neighborhoods in the country, and if there is anybody who should cooperate with police, it’s blacks. Most blacks know this, but are afraid to speak out.

“Kudos to the people who honored the life of a good man and police officer.” (http://theblacksphere.net/2015/08/media-didnt-tell-memphis-cop-shooting/) and (http://www.wmcactionnews5.com/story/29720018/neighborhood-hangs-balloons-for-officer-bolton). WHY did the national media fail to cover this?

Obviously because it undermines the fallacy that the BLM movement speaks for the majority of the black community.
