A Censored Race War The media ignore racially motivated black-on-white crime. When two white newspaper reporters for the Virginian-Pilot were driving through Norfolk, and were set upon and beaten by a mob of young blacks beaten so badly that they had to take a week off from work that might sound like news that should have been reported, at least by their own newspaper. But it wasnt. The OReilly Factor on Fox News Channel was the first major television program to report this incident. Yet this story is not just a Norfolk story, either in what happened or in how the media and the authorities have tried to sweep it under the rug. Similar episodes of unprovoked violence by young black gangs against white people chosen at random on beaches, in shopping malls, or in other public places have occurred in Philadelphia, New York, Denver, Chicago, Cleveland, Washington, Los Angeles, and other places across the country. Both the authorities and the media tend to try to sweep these episodes under the rug. In Milwaukee, for example, an attack on whites at a public park a few years ago left many of the victims battered to the ground and bloody. But when the police arrived on the scene, it became clear that the authorities wanted to keep this quiet. One 22-year-old woman, who had been robbed of her cell phone and debit card, and had blood streaming down her face, said, About 20 of us stayed to give statements and make sure everyone was accounted for. The police wouldnt listen to us, they wouldnt take our names or statements. They told us to leave. It was completely infuriating. The police chief seemed determined to head off any suggestion that this was a racially motivated attack by saying that crime is color-blind. Officials elsewhere have said similar things. A wave of such attacks in Chicago were reported, but not the race of the attackers or victims. Media outlets that do not report the race of people committing crimes nevertheless report racial disparities in imprisonment and write heated editorials blaming the criminal-justice system. What the authorities and the media seem determined to suppress is that the hoodlum elements in many ghettoes launch coordinated attacks on whites in public places. If there is anything worse than a one-sided race war, it is a two-sided race war, especially when one of the races outnumbers the other several times over. It may be understandable that some people want to head off such a catastrophe, either by not reporting the attacks in this race war, or by not identifying the race of those attacking, or by insisting that the attacks were not racially motivated even when the attackers themselves voice anti-white invective as they laugh at their bleeding victims. Trying to keep the lid on is understandable. But a lot of pressure can build up under that lid. If and when that pressure leads to an explosion of white backlash, things could be a lot worse than if the truth had come out earlier, and steps taken by both black and white leaders to deal with the hoodlums and with those who inflame them. These latter would include not only race hustlers like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson but also lesser-known people in the media, in educational institutions, and elsewhere who hype grievances and make all the problems of blacks the fault of whites. Some of these people may think that they are doing blacks a favor. But it is no favor to anyone who lags behind to turn their energies from the task of improving and advancing themselves to the task of lashing out at others. These others extend beyond whites. Asian-American schoolchildren in New York and Philadelphia have for years been beaten up by their black classmates. But people in the mainstream media who go ballistic if some kid says something unkind on the Internet about a homosexual classmate nevertheless hear no evil, see no evil, and speak no evil when Asian-American youngsters are victims of violence. Those who automatically say that the social pathology of the ghetto is due to poverty, discrimination, and the like cannot explain why such pathology was far less prevalent in the 1950s, when poverty and discrimination were worse. But there were not nearly as many grievance mongers and race hustlers then. http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/299918/censored-race-war-thomas-sowell# I too have noticed the lack of national media attention being paid to these attacks on whites. If it wasn't for the Drudge Report, most of America wouldn't know about all these beatings. But, if a white beats a black or shoots him in self defense, well the media cannot not stop talking about it. What is the media's agenda? _
Possibly you could write your Congressman on the blatant disrespect The Media if treating you. Here's an idea, maybe you could check an see what the Media was doing in 1930s about White on Black Crime for a clue. It's worth a try don't yea think?
Blame it on the black guy in the White House with the anti-white chip on his shoulder who has made race relations worse instead of better.
It's racist to point out these black on white crimes, isn't it? Should we just be ignoring these stories?
You've come out and stated that whites getting raped in prison by blacks is a good thing. Willing to lend your support to the black attackers in this story?
In a Free Enterprise Society ... you are Free to Start and Own your own Media Outlet. Good Luck and let us know how things work out for you. Or you can call Fox News ... I'm sure they will take your call.
The Drudge Report , Donald . Duck out of that comic fast . It's a comic produced almost solely by a guy who was always near bottom of the class for everything and who worked as a convenience store clerk . Not much of his stuff is judged reliable and like many of his readers he is not the brightest button on the shirt . Many of the racists and extremists flock to his easy to read rubbish . But he is not good enough for you , Donald .
Ok than call who ever is in charge of the media and let them know exactly how you feel. I'm guessing, Political Forum can't do anything 4-yea.
Drudge posts news articles from around the country. It's not bird cage liner like the Huff Po puts out. Liberals........... _
They have to be a race-pimp victimhood hustler type or else they are accused of being "who Republicans use to mask their racism" as Jeanine Garofolo briliantly stated.
As a liberal and a minority you probably get better treatment by the pro Obama lib news media than white conservatives do.
Yep ...... jealous. BTW ... and this has what to do with the Topic of this Thread? Or are you part of privileged few who don't have to stay on Topic?
