What's funny is that every now and then liberals will actually notice the lack of coverage of black victims, but they'll just pretend that's further evidence of white supremacy.
A couple years ago when Gabby Petito went missing there was all this indignant rage by morons like Joy Reid about "Missing White Woman Syndrome" - the idea that the media doesn't care about missing black girls and only wants to help attractive white girls. Um no... it's just that covering cases of missing black women is going to mean having to cover their black male murderers. The millisecond there's a black woman killed/missing and the suspect is presumed to be white you best believe there will be 24/7 media coverage.
Oh wait that experiment was already run! In 2018 this poor 7 year old black girl Jazmine Barnes was killed in a drive-by shooting and her mother (who evidently didn't give a single fuck about her dead daughter) LIED to the police and claimed a white man shot her. Instantly this was the biggest story in the country for the exact length of time it took until we found out that it was actually not one but TWO BLACK MEN that carried out the shooting. Needless to say no one ever heard about the disgusting murder of that poor black child ever again.
To quote Rev. Jesse Jackson: "There is nothing more painful for me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start to think about robbery and then look around and see it’s somebody white and feel relieved."
AND
To quote Judge Theodore A. McKee, U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals: "If I’m walking down a street in Center City Philadelphia at two in the morning and I hear some footsteps behind me and I turn around and there are a couple of young white dudes behind me, I am probably not going to get very uptight. I’m probably not going to have the same reaction if I turn around and there is the proverbial Black urban youth behind me. Now if I am going to have this reaction—and I’m a Black male who has studied marshal arts for twenty some odd years and can defend myself—I can’t help but think that the average white judge in the situation will have a reaction that is ten times more intense."
Black on black crime is horrible in Philadelphia - most of it doesn't even make it onto the news. Not on TV, not into newspapers. I suspect that's because it would be so depressing that no one would read the papers or watch the news as it would be totally consuming. And the shootings are daily. I am seeing the neighborhood of Kensington (at the famous "K & A" streets of Kensington & Allegheny Avenue) being featured on the national news of late for the drug abuse. But the shootings are scarier, as anyone can be a victim. Here's just one example in the news from July 2, 2023:
Philadelphia police say Kingsessing mass shooting suspect was ‘shooting aimlessly’; Krasner, Kenney call for stricter gun legislation.
Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney, District Attorney Larry Krasner, and Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw expressed outrage and disgust about the tragedy.
Philadelphia officials released updates on Tuesday afternoon regarding the mass shooting that left five people dead and two others injured in Southwest Philadelphia near Chester and Springfield avenues and South 56th Street.
Philadelphia police released the names of the five victims killed: Daujan Brown, 15; Lashyd Merritt, 22, from the 5500 block of Greenway Ave.; Dymir Stanton, 29, from the 1700 block of S. Frazier St.; Joseph Wamah, Jr., 31, from the 1600 block of S. 56th St.; and Ralph Moralis, 59, from the 1700 block of S. 56th St.
Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney, District Attorney Larry Krasner, and Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw expressed outrage and disgust about the tragedy.
Kenney said the Southwest Philadelphia community is traumatized. “This country needs to reexamine its conscience and find out how to get guns out of dangerous people’s hands,” Kenney said. “We are begging Congress to protect lives and do something about America’s gun problem.”
----
I'm afraid Kenney and others think the only way to get the guns out of dangerous people's hands is to take them from the law abiding citizens. WHAT can Congress do when Krasner isn't enforcing the laws we currently have? And why don't they let this killer stand trial anyhow? He's guilty. He's a killer.
On a happier note:
Bryce Harper, of the Philadelphia Phillies, just got his 300th home run moments ago. He's not black. He's not from Philadelphia. But I guess these stories are to cheer up the people who live in the city.
Excellent post. Yes, liberals insist that the only way to stop young urban black males from shooting one another is to take guns from rural whites.
I asked Gov DeSantis exactly that in my substack intvu - what can the federal govt do about urban crime. He had a great answer about suing state and local officials under the civil rights laws for not doing their jobs. I DON'T CARE IF HE'S NOT CHARISMATIC. If there's any hope for this country, it starts with making DeSantis president.
When a white commits a very rare mass shooting of blacks he always has a long winded manifesto explaining in excruciating detail how much he hated blacks. I've always been suspicious about that.
And if he didn't the media could read the mind of the white shooter to divine racism and privilege.
But when blacks go on mass shooting or killing sprees against whites the media always treats their motive as a complete mystery and akin to solving the riddle of the Bermuda Triangle even when they unearth tweets or a social media footprint that suggests anti-white hatred. Like when black man Darrell Brooks used his SUV to mow down white people in a 2021 Waukesha, WI Christmas parade, killing 8 and seriously injuring 64.
Usually more blacks get killed by blacks in Chicago on a typical Friday night with little fanfare than the Jacksonville shooting. But when a white person does it white leftards and blacks run around with their hair on fire.
Oddly enough...just now, CNN is reporting that in the last decade, 42 million people have been within one mile of a mass shooting. The article has anecdotes about how dangerous it was for some.

Thank you for follow up news on crime Ann. Heartbreaking. My heart specifically sank re:paragraphs 6 and 7. Agree: No. The average white person is not a prejudice racist or discriminatory person. I wish the persons who think it necessary to exploit other people would stop it. I echo the thought re: the mentally ill being with us always. At least these brave and honest individuals know better.
In the U.S. black people are free to prey on white people or black, asians, pretty much anyone. Hate crime designations are reserved exclusively for white on black crimes. Black on white crimes, though far more frequent than the reverse, are never prosecuted as hate crimes. This is a perversion of our justice system, as hate crimes carry additional and greater penalties. This is what institutional racism looks like where it actually exists. It is the mission of self-hating white people to punish everyone who looks like them. Guilty or usually not. You can thank Feminists and Marxists for this hateful and destructive mental illness that has now become the law of the land.
<<This is what institutional racism looks like where it actually exists.>>
YES.
<< It is the mission of self-hating white people to punish everyone who looks like them. >>
I slightly disagree - those whites aren't "self-hating"; they think THEY'RE just peachy! THEY'RE sensitive anti-racists. Instead they are YOU-hating. they hate YOU.
So Blacks comprise just over 14% of the US population and are responsible for 60% of the crime [murders] and no DEI statistical genius has pointed out this disparity?
Funny how statistics are just chips in the convenient game of moral relativism.
In some ways it’s even worse than that since black men commit the overwhelming majority of those crimes. I think with homicides you have about 7% responsible for 60% of homicides
Chicago...isn’t that where Lori Lightfoot lost re-election and was replaced by Brandon Johnson? What was Johnson’s program for policing?
“Johnson spent weeks pointedly refusing to commit to fully funding the Chicago Police Department’s $1.94 billion budget or filling 1,700 police vacancies.
“Instead, he vowed to cut the police budget by $150 million by streamlining the number of “non-sergeant” police supervisors, closing the department’s Homan Square facility, and ending the three-year, $33 million ShotSpotter contract.” (Chicago Sun Times)
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics 2018 survey of criminal victimization, there were 593,598 interracial violent victimizations (excluding homicide) between Blacks and Whites last year, including White-on-Black and Black-on-White attacks. Blacks committed 537,204 of those interracial felonies, or 90 percent, and Whites committed 56,394 of them, or less than 10 percent.
Every life has value. Every human is innately good. Circumstances change many, yet we as a society have lost the value of life. As a surgeon, I see people at there worst and best. It is rare that I am surprised by those who get shot, not that anyone deserves it, but lifestyle, life choices and being out after midnight seem to be risk factors for at risk lifestyles. Your synopsis is sad, but in all examples of tragedy no one really cares about the person tragically killed except those who truly knew them. Does anyone believe anyone in politics or the media care about G Floyd or T Martin et al? Their family and friends do, others who have empathy do, yet the parasites in politics and news have a level of concern that is equivalent to the President’s cognitive ability.

GREAT point.
I never thought about the When a blk woman is killed / kidnapped by a blk man it goes unnoticed to not make blk men look bad n I'm a poc
I think this may be just a bit too much truth. Dial it back please.

Antifa ruined the "safe" White guys idea. But the totality of the point is accurate.
I hate to say it but the quote by Jesse Jackson, I feel the same way too sad to say!!

It's called wanting to do what was "done to them "which is ignorant because I always say this to myself,"don't become what u despise".
The situation in Chicago is so appalling that even the NYT felt it had to cover it, as I discussed in my Substack entry here: https://ringsideatthereckoning.substack.com/p/the-klan-was-never-this-effective
Oddly enough...just now, CNN is reporting that in the last decade, 42 million people have been within one mile of a mass shooting. The article has anecdotes about how dangerous it was for some.
WTF???
Limbaugh used to say that everyone who has ever eaten a carrot has died. Therefore carrots cause death.

Upon the stage of truth, a figure stands,
Ann Coulter, seer of our modern age,
With piercing eyes, she reads the shifting sands,
And speaks with wisdom far beyond the page.
A Cassandra in her prophetic grace,
She weaves the future from the present's thread,
Foretelling storms that cloud the nation's face,
Yet too often her warnings go unread.
Her voice, a beacon in the murky night,
Illuminates the shadows with its might,
Unveiling falsehoods with unwavering sight,
A champion for what's just and what is right.
So let us heed her words, that ringing bell,
For in her truth, our paths from falsehoods swell.
You should be the country's poet laureate!
You should be the country's magistratus extraordinarius!

Is the smoking lamp on yet?
60+% of all MURDERS, not all crimes. But murder is pretty bad.
Imagine the U.S. with 60% fewer murders.
Whoops...time to hit the edit button...thanks for the heads-up.
In some ways it’s even worse than that since black men commit the overwhelming majority of those crimes. I think with homicides you have about 7% responsible for 60% of homicides
60% monopolized by 7% is an “empowering” statement for Black Supremacy!

I like the part where Johnson is suing Hyundai and Kia for not making their vehicles more theft proof.
As Ed Koch once said, the people have spoken-now they will suffer the consequences

Groups of whites produced Europe, North America, Rhodesia, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
Groups of blacks . . . are certainly animated.
More is expected of those who carry the civilization gene than of those who do not.
And the best goes on...our lives are witness to these news crimes. How unjust and misled our country is.
There are no evidence that recent mass shooter Ryan Palmeter was a racist, however his parents (with whom he lived) are liberals, possibly gun control activists as well. So it's quite plausible that Ryan intentionally painted swastikas on his rifle and wrote "racist" manifesto in order to give fodder to those who seek to disarm us. https://heavy.com/news/ryan-palmeter/
