Black Teenagers' Power In NY (Is Greatly Exaggerated)

“You cannot police without [stop & frisk]. If you did not have it, then you’d have anarchy.”

The Republicans ("It's My Party And I'll Cry If I Want To")

"A SHOCKING ad on one of Latin America's biggest online marketplaces, offering 'blacks for sale for one real' ($A. 47), has sparked outrage in Brazil and a police investigation.

The ad featured a photo of two black children, and suggested anyone purchased could 'serve as carpenters, masons, cooks, security guards, nightclub bouncers, janitors, garbage collectors, or housekeepers'."

TMR's mostly still been riding the racial zeitgeist, with links, because - let's face it -  there wasn't much to say anybody wants to hear.

"For too long we’ve heard that these crimes are inevitable, too complex to solve, or not our problem, resembling some of the arguments used in the 18th century to justify the slave trade. But this is a question of political will. The facts are established, and like our predecessors 'we cannot plead ignorance'."

Unfortunately, telling people what they want to hear has never been TMR's mandate (blogging would be so much simpler) and neither is waiting for anybody to catch up.

"Slavery 'Should Be Made Essential Reading'"

REPUBLICANS "don't see race" or can't connect the concept to slavery? 


Fine - YOU don't see it. 



Good for you.

TMR most certainly does - especially through work on cultism. 

"It is not a coincidence that marijuana has been decriminalized in Washington and Colorado, but not in Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Iowa, Pennsylvania, California, Indiana or Louisiana — the seven states with the highest rates of incarcerated black men." 

This is not to be racist, but to be real:

"When two black men were accused of assaulting a white couple on the Charlottesville, Virginia, mall last month, the right-wing shriek machine immediately seized on the incident as the latest 'knockout game' attack—a Drudge-fed race panic in which feral black youth are purportedly sucker-punching nice white people around the nation without reason or warning."

Having good intentions, or trying to appear good, means nothing at TMR - actually being good does.

"Apparently they all swim naked in the sea with mermaids and lollipop dreams to a cove filled with miniature unicorns singing the secrets of everlasting youth."

The Macho Response - to everything - has always been to "follow the North Star" using a strong moral compass.

Those are American values.

"I didn’t feel the need to get some guy down the hall to respect my work,...I’d decided that getting respect from my own people meant far more than being recognized by people foolish enough to spend their entire lives writing research papers that no one is ever going to read.

...I wish that I could say that you’re going to always be rewarded for your hard work and that you’ll get the opportunities you deserve.  But the fact is that I hear more complaints about workplace discrimination on a daily basis than you can imagine, and the evidence clearly shows that the legal remedies for people of color are few and far between."

I don't know what the rest of y'all have been blogging about,…

 

Against Mass Movements (Making The Best Of It Sucks)

Hysterical adults, terrorizing children, creating criminals - it's too primitive, and tragicly idiotic, to contemplate:

“Studies have found no support for the hypothesis that black students misbehave more often. In fact, racial disparities in suspension rates have raised increasing concern nationally because the data shows just the opposite – that black students are more likely to be suspended for more subjective and less serious reasons.” 

 And then there's the stoners - lots of stoners - you can't forget the stoners,....

 

No One's Thinking Of Whites (As Much As Whites Do)

It would be more credible if whites - especially those gun-toting crazies at Lem's, and Instapundit, where a lot of this nonsense gets revealed - just admitted they're cowards who love the rush of their own hysteria:

    “Even though the numbers are small, a higher proportion of whites are likely to be killed by blacks than whites killing blacks. As in the Oklahoma slaying, there is no evidence that the killings are racially motivated. Whites are targeted because they are perceived to have valuables in the home: cash, a luxury car or other conspicuous objects of value that criminals seek out and that poor blacks aren’t likely to have.

In other words, these killings are almost all cases of garden-variety street crime. The alleged Oklahoma teen shooters prove that point. There is no talk about “getting” whites in their Facebook page rants, but rather an exulting of the pseudo-tough guy, gangster lifestyle." 

 As the NewAgers love to ask, "What are you afraid of?" 

 It looks like "being bored" more than anything else,...

12 Years Online (We're Watching Whites Watching Us)

Forget The Knockout Game, Drudge can't deny this is real:

The white racist guide to reporting crime trends

“For best results, follow these simple steps:

1. Pick a crime trend – or make one up! Consider only street crimes. Crimes against humanity by America or its allies, crimes by Wall Street bankers, American corporations or middle-class white people over the age of 21 do not count. Crimes by white men do not a trend make.

◦ A drop in black crime: This can count as a trend but only if you can credit the actions of white people for it, like 'stop and frisk' or 'The War on Drugs'. Whatever you do, never credit 'black culture', 'black leaders' or 'black parenting' for it! They can only be blamed, never praised. That is like a rule of White American culture.”

Funny - for all his "reporting" - Glenn "Get Yer Guns" Reynolds keeps missing when (and how) it happens, too. But, even with such a glaring oversight - and this ugly trend he contributes to - everyone still wonders (and bugs me about) why I don't listen to his harassing garbage.

Get real:

I've long seen what he's about,...

 

Science, Technology, Education - And For What Exactly?

“It's just a flesh wound! Hindus scream and stab ceremonial daggers into their NECKS without drawing blood in incredible ritual

• Residents of the village Kesiman enter a mass trance until they feel no pain

• They wear elaborate costumes to invoke the gods and escape their bodies

• Ceremony in Bali is known as Ngerebong and is more than 100 years old”

No Reason To Stop This, Notice This, Or Be Concerned

Sure - like supernatural hoaxes, none of this could've happened in a population that was educated to automatically know better - but putting critical thinking in schools? What kind of weirdo freaks do you want us to turn into?

We're fine just the way we are,...

Somebody Should Yell "Fix Bayonets!" Just For Kicks

The beginning of the end. It'll still take a while for the rest of 'em to stop confusing hard-headedness with integrity in the face of diminishing returns. What am I saying? No returns:

   U.S. Rep. Dennis Ross, a Florida Republican, said he would support a broad spending deal that didn’t include changes to the health-care law, becoming the first Tea Party-backed House lawmaker to publicly back off the fight that is shut down the government for four days.

Ross, ranked among the House’s most conservative members by both the Club for Growth and the American Conservative Union, said he shifted his position because the shutdown hasn’t resulted in changes to the Affordable Care Act, which started Oct. 1, the same day government funding ran out. The shutdown also could hurt the party, he said.

“We’ve lost the CR battle,” Ross, referring to the continuing resolution to authorize government spending, said in an interview. “We need to move on and take whatever we can find in the debt limit.”

I have seen mass hysteria take many forms in this country, but this one is just sad,...

I Don't Have A Life So You Don't Have To: I'll Take Yours

Leave it to The Onion to address one of my main beefs with the world - the idea I live, literally and figuratively, with intellectual cowards. I thought I'd get online and meet all these stimulating minds, but what's here? Ann Althouse and her public nervous breakdowns - but no apologies - when challenged? Glenn Reynolds and his insistence on quackery, and let's-try-to-walk-the-line, race-based tomfoolery? Other famous feminists? Other famous libertarians? (Does anybody even care libertarians don't win elections?) NewAgers? Anybody, who can't stand the idea of society nailing down anything, but Jesus to a cross? They're all in this piece:

Courage requires us to remain steadfast in our beliefs. It asks that we stand by the convictions we express and never give an inch, no matter what the cost. However off base, wrongheaded, or patently false a position we’ve staked out may be, courage nonetheless demands that we blindly pound home our stupid fucking point, never letting up.

True valor is the moment in a conversation when you realize that what you’re saying is completely and utterly wrong, but you continue to say it over and over again anyway, only louder.

Suppose you’re discussing current events with a group of friends, one of whom politely challenges an assertion you’ve made about a particular issue. In such congenial gatherings, it can be tempting to back down, especially when someone has just put forth evidence that soundly debunks everything you’ve been saying. The courageous path takes more discipline. It means looking that friend in the eye and—though you know full well that you are totally wrong—saying, “No, I’m right.”

The same dilemma applies when you’re arguing with someone who obviously has far more information about a subject than you do. Basically, you have two choices: You can admit that you are out of your depth and that your lack of knowledge led you to the incorrect conclusion. Or you can dig in your heels, grit your teeth, and defend your misguided, uninformed opinion with every fiber of your being—even to the point of hysteria.

What is the measure of bravery? I think part of it has to do with how firmly we stand our ground when we have absolutely no fucking clue what we’re talking about.

Like sand through the hourglass, these are the days of their lives:

And, considering the weight these fools bring to bear on those below them, we should reconsider the worth of that whole stockade-in-the-public-square thing.

College campuses are perfect,...

 

When This Man Is Your Hero I'm Proud To Be A Pariah

He's made millions, spouting sciencey-sounding malarky, and all because they'd eat it up:

“However, instead of completely melting away, the polar icecap is at now at its highest level for this time of year since 2006. 

Satellite photos of the Arctic taken by NASA in August 2012 and August 2013 show a 60 percent increase in the polar ice sheet, more than half the size of Europe, despite “realistic” predictions by climate scientists six years ago that the North Pole would be completely melted by now. Instead of shrinking, the NASA photographs clearly show that the Arctic ice sheet is much larger than it was at the same time last year. 

The thick layer of summer ice, which currently stretches from Canada to Russia, is preventing ships from using the North-West Passage.”

I remember almost being thrown out of someone's house, for trying to calm a woman as she screamed about the polar bears - a result of misinformation, few consider, as the claim it's all so harmless revolves. It's not. These fools think they're just talking but, in ways large and small, society stops working. Lives are put in peril.

Ha! Listen to me. I forgot - this is post-Syria America now:

Nobody has to care about any of that anymore,...
