I Felt a Great Disturbance in the Narrative

Kevin Williamson:

When former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani takes seriously the operative slogan of the Ferguson protests — “Black Lives Matter!” — and asks the obvious question — “Don’t they matter in the 93 percent of cases when the lives of black murder victims are taken violently by black criminals?” — the Left’s reflexive response is to denounce him as a racist. The Washington Post‘s hilariously Orwellian fact-check column labelled Giuliani a liar even as it confirmed that his observation is, as a matter of fact, entirely true. […]
The reality is this: Black men, especially young black men, die violent deaths at appalling rates in these United States. But they do not die very often at the hands of the Ku Klux Klan, thugs reminiscent of characters from American History X, police officers of any race or motivation, lynch mobs, the Koch brothers, Karl Rove, Walmart, the Tea Party, Goldman Sachs, carbon dioxide, or any other bogeyman currently in vogue among so-called progressives. As Giuliani noted, blacks die violent deaths almost exclusively at the hands of black criminals. But attempting to accommodate that reality in any serious way does not pay any political dividends for the Left. It does not put any money in Jesse Jackson’s pockets or create any full-time jobs for graduates of grievance-studies programs.

One of these.

  1. So is anyone actually going to write a post about the white guy in St. Louis who was hammered to death?
    Be sure to go to VDARE’s page on Steve Sailer and check out his posts on it . I’d provide links, but spam filter.
    Check out his posts on this racially-motivated murder:

    Seriously, this is a story you must cover.

  2. For what it’s worth, Ace of Spades also posted on it. They’re a great blog whom SDA is a fan of and gets some material from. SDA should follow suit here. It’s relevant.

  3. It has nothing to do with race – if you listen to the formative “solutions” narrative, there is talk (by black victim industry spokesmen) of “reparation payments to the black community for slave days alleged victimology. So, as usual, it’s all about money – money for nothing to those who have a grotesque sense of entitlement.
    Hell the black inner city community has already gone tribal why not rip off the aboriginal industry rackets for guilt payments.

  4. Could we compare this to the Native Indians here in Canada? What would be the stats on Indian women being killed by men within their own “communities”?

  6. …to punish, not cure, irresponsible speech. And to do so, consistent with the First Amendment.
    As practiced by the left and the mainstream media (I know, I know), speech is no longer an instrument one main purpose of which is to convey information (There are other important uses, like promising, contracting, and so on.). It is, in their hands, a weapon used to promote and entrench their ideology. That, they have conveniently determined, is the purpose of speech. This is so even when speech masquerades as mere assertion of fact. Thus does their corruption of language go much further than the elevation of the lie, their favorite currency. It goes all the way to the heart of an institution that is vital to our prosperity.
    So understood, where speech is a political weapon to entrench political beliefs, not a device for discovering the truth, why would speech deserve protection under a Constitutional amendment? The progressives corruption of speech undermines all the arguments that have, historically, been used to justify the basic right of free speech—most importantly, the argument that, in a free exchange of idea, the truth will out, or is more likely to will out, and that will all better off for it. But in the hands of the progressives, that is no longer the purpose of speech, and if not, the free market argument in defense of the right of free speech would no longer be available to them. Right? If so, what is the argument that progressive “speech” should be protected?

  7. I am so tired of this race issue.
    “if you listen to the formative “solutions” narrative, there is talk (by black victim industry spokesmen) of “reparation payments to the black community for slave days alleged victimization.”(my change
    Victimizing all whites today(Hispanics are often counted as white in the U.S.) for the behaviour of some whites in the past is immoral. Reparations were already paid, in blood, from 1861 to 1865 by many whites who never even owned slaves.
    Why target only white people when slaves were owned by Blacks too?
    http://topconservativenews.com/2012/03/americas-first-slave-owner-was-a-black-man/
    Obama is descended from slave dealers on his father’s side and slave owners on his mother’s side. How much is he paying in reparations?

  8. #1 cause of death of black men ages 15 to 35 is murder. And who is doing all these murders? Other black men! That’s the cold hard reality that race hustlers like Al Sharpton divert attention from self inflicted wounds. That’s why the whole 21st century civil rights movement is not a movement but a racket pure and simple.

  9. Thanks, neo. I’m glad halls of macadamia wrote something about it. Good posts there.
    Of course, I’m asking Small Dead Animals to give it exposure. Zemir Begic deserves no less, nor do the other white people massively disproportionately targeted as victims of interracial crime.

  10. If you believe and understand real science (not fraudulent science like global warming), then you will know that it is entirely possibly that, on average, blacks are less intelligent than whites.
    It’s statistics. That’s not to say there are no blacks that are as intelligent as whites. Nor does it mean that all whites are intelligent. But the intelligence bell curve for blacks is not the same as that of whites.
    This fact cannot be tolerated in a politically correct, left-leaning world. So what is the left’s solution? Dumb everything down so that blacks then appear to have the same intelligence curve as whites.
    You only have to look at the education system to see what I mean.
    Bottom line is it takes brains to run a successful society in a modern world, both in terms of leadership and in terms of citizens. The problems facing blacks in the USA are because they are, on average, stupid.

  11. If the parents of Trayvon Martin and Mike Brown had real’y cared they would have been teaching their kids right from wrong but they didnt and now want to blame america and the police for their sons deaths typical liberals all

  12. My thoughts as well. The fact that 90% of the aboriginal homicides are committed by aboriginals is conveniently ignored by the leftist media.

  13. “Among white Americans, the average IQ, as of a decade or so ago, was 103. Among Asian-Americans, it was 106. Among Jewish Americans, it was 113. Among Latino Americans, it was 89. Among African-Americans, it was 85. Around the world, studies find the same general pattern: whites 100, East Asians 106, sub-Sarahan Africans 70. One IQ table shows 113 in Hong Kong, 110 in Japan, and 100 in Britain. White populations in Australia, Canada, Europe, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States score closer to one another than to the worldwide black average. It’s been that way for at least a century.”

  14. Yeah well correlation does not always mean causation.
    In this instance, race even in the US, corresponds with culture. “Black Culture” has unfortunate features that does not nurture intelligence….then again the “welfare state” is a coincident factor. The black kid that does well in school gets beat up and the Trayons gets the babes……evolution at work.
    Nature versus nurture…..

  15. “If you believe and understand real science (not fraudulent science like global warming), then you will know that it is entirely possibly that, on average, blacks are less intelligent than whites.”
    There you have it folks.The SDA crowd quickly gets to the heart of the matter.
    First of all… yes, there is a problem with Black on Black crime. This might have something to do with the fact that Black men are arrested and sent to jail for minor infractions that whites get away with because we’re not constantly stopped and frisked. Once sent to prison, (also known as “thug factories”), where they are NOT reformed, but exposed to violent culture, they return home as damaged people.
    That you guys think this is an issue of IQ demonstrates what a bunch of stupid, stupid rednecks you all are.
    A little video. This happens to Black men every single say far, far, far more than White men. Try and put yourselves in his shoes. You’d be cross-eyed with redneck rage and talkin’ bout yer guns.

  16. “This might have something to do with the fact that Black men are arrested and sent to jail for minor infractions that whites get away with because we’re not constantly stopped and frisked.”
    Nope. I think it has to do with the fact that Black men commit 8xs more murders than White men.

  17. “#1 cause of death of black men ages 15 to 35 is murder.”
    That’s only after they are born. #1 cause of death in the USA is Planed Parenthood.
    More blacks are aborted than are born.
