Youth Revolt in the Heartland: More than 100 Black people riot at Milwaukee Mall

"Youth" riot... Black youth riot
Mall envy. Dress codes. Curfews. Flash mobs terrorizing Philadelphia, Kansas City and other major cities.
Can you guess what racial group suffers from the symptoms of mall envy? How about the group that dress codes and curfews target most frequent? Perhaps you could take a stab at which group participated in flash mobs in many major American cities in 2010, based on the successful application of the answers procured from above.
Hint: the same group that decided vintage Air Jordan’s were worth rioting about in both Christmas of 2009 and 2010.
Though recognizing behavioral patterns frequently attributable to a certain demographic that develop from noticing events and crime rates at disparate locations across the country is immensely frowned upon in Black Run America (BRA), it is becoming increasingly noticeable that one particular racial group (we’ll call them “youths” as they do in France) have a propensity for displaying an inability of self-control.
Take for instance the actions of more than 100 “youth” in Milwaukee at the Mayfair Mall (nestled in a city of roughly 45,000 with a population that is just around two percent Black) that was forced to close due to disturbances by these precious “youth” that seem to be germane to one racial group that few dare name:

Police closed Mayfair Mall a half hour early Sunday evening after reports of gunfire somewhere near the mall.  The gunfire reports have not been verified.
The disturbance started when several teenagers started looting inside Boston Store, witnesses said.
A picture posted on JSOnline.com shows several clothing racks strewn across the floor.
Two hours after the mall closed, there were still crowds of teens in the area.
"Just trying to have fun," a teenage boy told TODAY'S TMJ4 reporter Lauren Leamanczyk. Witnesses said teenagers continued causing problems after leaving Mayfair.

"They were at the bus stop and then they were running across the street toward BW'3's," one woman recounted. "And then at that time, they were jumping on cars and then almost playing like ditch it in the middle of the street with the cars."
Wauwatosa police said they do not have anyone custody and that Chief Barry Weber would release more information Monday.
The newspaper in Buffalo was attacked by the parents and leaders of the “youth” community after the unflattering articles were published that brought to light the penchant for criminality that these “youth” seem incapable of straying from wherever they might reside.
Any media that dare point out who these “youth” are will be denounced vigorously by the community that spawned these “youth” and their Disingenuous White Liberals (DWL) enablers.
Another story on this “youth” riot can be found here:

“A crowd of like 50 to 60 kids just came barreling through the upstairs door at Boston Store, knocking down everything they could touch. They went running down the stairs. All that we heard was glass breaking. There was security yelling to every manager to lockdown the doors, lockdown the mall, lockdown the store,” the customer said.
That customer sent a few photos to 12 News that show mannequins and items knocked down inside Boston Store.

An employee at a different retailer inside the mall told 12 News that mall security was able to get shoppers out of the building within about 10 minutes, as retailers began to shut their storefront gates.

“With all the noise and bustle it definitely seemed like something was wrong. It felt like people were starting to panic. My employee said she heard glass breaking and so it did seem like it was getting out of control,” the employee said.
Mayfair Mall management released a statement late Sunday night:
“What occurred this afternoon appears to be a group of youth intent on disrupting the shopping experience at Mayfair. The safety and security of our visitors are always our top priority. This behavior is isolated and we will not condone it. To assist police earlier in identifying and apprehending suspects, we made the decision to close the mall shortly before our regular closing time. We anticipate there will be consequences as a result of what happened today.

We are thankful for the support of our public safety team and the Wauwatosa Police Department. We are even more thankful there were no injuries as a result of the youth’s careless actions.”
There are reasons why people hold stereotypes about the certain community that produced these “youth” and it is because of these stereotypes that the phenomenon known as Breathing while Black (BwB) exists. The actions of these “youth” help shape an image of an entire community on the brink of collapse, endangering the upper-class of the “youth” community in the process.
We’ll say what so many people instinctively understand, but because of zeitgeist of the day refrain from doing: the “youth” are Black people and any denouncing by city leaders of these Black people will bring about righteous indignation from the “youth” community leaders and parents.
After all, they are all great kids stuck in a highly segregated city where racism is the real culprit behind the Black kid’s inability to conform to society’s standards.
One prediction: 2011 will be the year that all online newspapers begin censoring comments on their Web sites. The Internet is the last bastion of freedom in America and soon that will gone.
Any criticism of “youth” and their community is not tolerated.

Video can be found here.

Update: the mall had a parental guidance rule (part of the Parental Guidance Program) that Black people protested back in 2009.

#35. Waiting for a Taxi

Invariably, the stigma of public transportation (a forthcoming SBPDL) causes people to refrain from taking the bus or light-rail with the unpleasantness of this experience far outweighing the benefit or convenience of such a trip.

This is why suburbs were created, so that whitopia’s could form where white people could leave the madness behind. Most importantly no public transportation route could bring unwanted or undesirable elements into these communities, and the expansion of train tracks could be stopped by a city council determined to keep out an unsavory element so often found loitering at malls and other public areas.
It's never fun being Black and needing a taxi

The people left behind to dwell in urban areas have found public transportation just as colorful, quickly turning to a more expensive alternative lest they wish to enjoy that same element so many undesirable white people escaped to the suburbs to avoid.

In New York City, Washington DC, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta and other major cities the only alternative to public transportation is walking and the elements and distance between start/end location precludes this option. The taxi becomes the optimum device for transportation, saving many people the embarrassment of traveling via public transportation though the cost associated with such an ego-demoralizing trip might be the cheaper decision.

The taxi offers an inebriated passenger safe passage home, though the conversation will usually be one-sided because the person driving the automobile has an inability to speak to comprehend English yet curiously has the ability to acquire a license.

Relaxing in the taxi the passenger can relax knowing that the laws of physics dictate that no accident can ever transpire in such a vehicle, regardless of how fast the driver goes or how many times they slam on the brakes to yell indecipherable obscenities at the car that cut them off.

Taxi drivers have the ability to quickly size up the person flagging them down and are known to assiduously avoid certain segments of the population, most notably the blind.

Funny then that taxi drivers and people living in whitopia’s have one glaring similarity which binds them, though the latter rarely admits it: both avoid Black people (even Stuff White People Like – SWPL whites- do as well).

Black people do not tip and Black people have a propensity for committing crime. Though not all Black people practice the art of leaving niggardly gratuities or commit crime with wanton abandon, enough do to create a phenomenon known as Breathing While Black (not to be confused with Driving While Black ).

Breathing While Black (BWB) is a condition that debilitates all relationships between Black people and non-Black people, because the stereotypes associated with the worst elements of Black people naturally are believed to be practiced by all Black people, despite their appearance and ability to command speak coherently.

It is the taxi driver (strange that such a high percentage of them are Black) who dares employ the iniquitous practice BWB-thinking most frequently, with stories of Black people waiting for a taxi only to see that driver speed past them without a moment’s hesitation, a common occurrence across the nation’s big cities:
When you stick your hand out, you expect the cab to stop. But there’s a certain type of guy out there who feels like he’s always getting passed by.

“I get upset when they don’t stop, but then, it’s hard to take a taxi when you’re black,” says Craig Brown from Southeast Washington.

“It’s too hard to get a cab in D.C. because D.C. is biased,” says Man Thomas from Northeast D.C.

A growing number of black men in the District say an age-old problem is getting worse.
"You'll flag down and they go past you,” Brown says. “Then they'll stop down the street for a white person."

So Fox 5 decided to put D.C.’s cab drivers to the test.

Meet Darryl Brown and Rick Yarborough. Darryl’s a Fox 5 Photographer. Rick is Fox 5’s Investigative Producer. They both went to college, they work in the same place, and they are the same height and build. They’re wearing similar clothes—a sports coat and a backpack-- leaving just one big difference. Darryl is black and Rick is white.
For our test, Darryl tries to hail a cab the same time as Rick, who will stand about 10 yards farther down the street. We start in Capitol Hill, where the cab drives right past Darryl and picks up Rick instead.

We repeat the experiment at some of the most popular spots in the District: Adams Morgan, Dupont Circle, Georgetown, and Friendship Heights. Cabs skip Darryl and pick up Rick three out of five times.

“That’s inexcusable. That is racial discrimination,” says Nathan Price.
The only reason that taxi drivers participate in the putrid game of discrimination is because of the odiferous stench of BWB-thinking, perpetuated merely by the continued high levels of disproportionate crime that Black males commit.

Clearly, Black males must stop committing such disproportionate amounts of crime in cities throughout the United States or else BWB-thinking will remain entrenched and taxi drivers will remain dogmatic in leaving Black people with their thumb in the air.

This will only extend the stigma against public transportation, with more Black people being forced to ride buses and light-rail systems. What a vicious cycle the game of BWB-thinking inevitable leads us all into.

Taxi drivers pass by Black customers
Now the president of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers is proclaiming that cab drivers should profile Black (and that pesky group that immigration reform could shut out completely) people in order to stay safe:
MYFOXNY.COM - Fernando Mateo, president of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers, is telling cab drivers that for their own protection they should profile potential passengers who are black and Latino.

Mateo, who identifies himself as both black and Hispanic, made his comments this week after a livery cab driver was shot several times by a man police describe as Hispanic. The suspect was wearing a hooded sweatshirt, which Mateo has said is a red flag.

The private cab driver was fighting for his life after being shot at least four times by a robber who ended up getting less than $100.

Dramatic video released by New York police showed the struggle between the gunman and a driver.
Mr. Mateo would go on to say:
In case the NYPD wasn’t racially profiling enough, cabbies might be joining in on the action, too. After a livery cab driver was shot in Queens last weekend, the President of the New York State Federation of Taxi Drivers responded on Monday at his own press conference with some, um, discriminatory remarks: “I don’t care about racial profiling. You know, sometimes it is good we are racially profiled, because the God’s honest truth is that 99 percent of the people that are robbing, stealing, killing these drivers are blacks and Hispanics.”
It is apparent Mr. Mateo reads The Washington Post and understands that violent crime seems to be an enterprise monopolized by one group in New York City (well, everywhere).

Taxi drivers wish to stay alive so that they can pick up drunk, obnoxious young white people and charge their credit card an extra zero instead of driving into war-torn areas that might lead to a mugging:
It is not that all taxis won’t pick up Black people. Some of them do. It is not that all taxis don’t go into Black neighborhoods. Some of them do, and it would be economic stupidity for them to avoid such a large swatch of the city, south and west. But enough of them steer clear of those neighborhoods, and anyone they think might live in those neighborhoods, to make it a bit more difficult to hail a cab if you are Black.
Oddly, studies have shown that tipping is considered racist now as well because white taxi drivers receive a greater tip on average than their Black counterparts:
Should tipping be outlawed? That's one suggestion made in a new study, which finds there's extreme racial discrimination in taxicab tipping, reports The New York Times. This isn't the first study to reach such conclusions. Is this a microcosm for wage gaps in corporate America and other salaried environments? What's going on?


Many studies document discrimination against consumers based on race (read Shopping While Black: One Serious Shopper's Customer Service Nightmare), but few analyze discrimination based on the race of the "seller," in this case the driver.

Black cab drivers were tipped about a third less than white cab drivers, the study found. Black passengers also participated in this discrimination against Black taxi drivers. And the overall "tipping shortfall" causes total revenue per fare for Black drivers to be 7 percent less than white drivers, which perpetuates economic inequality.
There is nowhere for Black people to hide from BWB-thinking, as it pervades every sector of society even contaminating those minorities in power into forcing them to declare that profiling might be a good thing.

Stuff Black People Don’t Like includes waiting for a taxi. That BWB-thinking is found in every city where taxi drivers peddle their wares means that one can rule out a conspiracy in action to keep Black riders on the sidewalk.

That taxi drivers zoom past potential Black clients (when 25 percent of taxi drivers are Black) tells you all you need to know about the state of Black America.

On the Brink in Atlanta: What happens when the money runs out?

One shouldn't poke fun at the unfortunate, the circumstances of their misfortune unknown to you. However in the case of Atlanta's coddled underclass, the misfortune is easily identifiable: a combination of reliance on Disingenuous White Liberal (DWL) handouts, Christian charity and federal/state reliance and a string of poor choices that this underclass will never, ever feel accountable for making.

No more money: white liberals know what is coming
Earlier this year, 30,000 Black people lined up for the opportunity to sign up for Section 8 housing assistance (though the number of homes available was less than 700 over a 10 year time span). Now hundreds of Black people have lined up for federal assistance in paying their heat and power bills:
Despite the freezing temperatures, hundreds fought for a place in line in Marietta to apply for federal aid to help pay their heat and power bills this winter.   Only 30 people were being let in at a time at the assistance center in Marietta.  

"It was freezing," applicant Linda Benefield told WSB-TV. "I was in line for three hours and 15 minutes, but I needed the help."

Some needed even more help just to deal with the cold. Ambulances were cold in and took at least two people to the hospital because of the freezing temperatures.


"People just couldn't stand the cold," said applicant Deandre Marshall. "They were not letting people in fast enough."

Marshall said people in line were crying, afraid they would not even get a chance to apply.

"I never thought I would be in the line," Marshall said. "It's almost like being in a soup line during the great depression."

The money is offered through a network of agencies in Georgia.
All over Atlanta, Black people lined up for help receiving Federal assistance or non-profit charity to pay their bills or receive diapers. The altruism on display from private charities is heartwarming, but the alarming sense of entitlement apparent among the aid-seekers should shock even the most hardened DWL:
 A day after hundreds of people queued up outside a Marietta community center to apply for assistance with heat and power bills, hopeful applicants began lining up again around midnight, waiting in the sub-freezing temperatures for the doors to open Thursday morning.
This time, however, officials let those in line come into the Mansour Center on Roswell Street an hour early at 7:30 and get relief from temperatures that dropped to 27 degrees.

“We’re freezing,” said Lecher Eady, a Marietta mother who arrived at midnight seeking help with her bills. “Our hands are cold, our feet are cold.”

In DeKalb County, Atlanta police were called to the Atlanta DeKalb Human Services Building on Warren Street Wednesday morning after "loud arguing" broke out among a large crowd gathered to apply for energy assistance, according to police dispatchers.

Lakesha Charles, who has been out of work for two years, was number 16 in the Marietta line Thursday, which, she said, is “better than number 100.”

The mother of six said she “heard it was ridiculous” on Wednesday, when only 30 people at a time were let into the assistance center.“Hopefully, we can get in and get help,” she said.

“I saw it on the news and decided to come up here because I really need the help,” Kamara said. “You’ve got to stand in line, because it’s not going to come to you.”
This is a sad situation. Black people face unemployment at a much higher rate then other racial groups (funny, Atlanta home builders relied on illegal alien laborers for the unprecedented home building that erupted throughout the suburbs as white people escaped further and further away from the inner-city and its Black-centric problems) and scant few opportunities appear on the horizon.

This mentality is highly prevalent among Black people

The entire purpose of the agencies that grant aid to those in financial trouble is to make them "self-sufficient" though this is the opposite of what is transpiring:
"The Fulton Atlanta Community Action Authority (FACAA) supports the current Presidential Administration's approach to accountability. We join him in executing a stimulus program that helps people to get back on their feet but more importantly that teaches people how to remain self-sufficient in troubled times."
Not all Black people in the United States of America (or Atlanta) rely on public assistance, charity, entitlements or government programs to subsist, though an increasing majority of them do. The out-of-wedlock birthrate for Black people shows that in the near future the dwindling super power known as the USA is on an unavoidable collision course with the destruction of welfare state, as more and more Black people will become dependent on the altruism of others to live.

The country is disintegrating before our eyes. Again, no one is excited by seeing hordes of unemployable Black people line up for free housing assistance or aid for their power/heat bills. A continued decision to reject nature will only ensure that she returns with a frightening vengeance when the money runs out. 

Perhaps this is why DWL and Stuff White People Like (SWPL) white people live in areas with near zero Black people, because they instinctively understand that the system cannot hold. Their money is best invested in helping from a considerable distance, instead of living among a population that will rebel once the assistance can no longer be provided.

It's ending. Atlanta is not a safe place, nor is any major city with a population dependent on Christian groups for charity/food or Federal assistance for housing/gas/jobs/heat/etc. Criminality is synonymous with Black people in these cities and once the money runs out, civilization is instantaneously gone.

We are on a road to nowhere, and nowhere is approaching at a velocity that picks up daily. We take no pride in writing about Black people's problems in Atlanta, but these problems are but a microcosm of the ills that plague every city in the country.

Video can be found here.

Or here.

Or here.

Personal responsibility is not a problem for Black people, as the Federal government will always be there to provide assistance to the universally oppressed. That money (and white guilt) is running out. 

What's going on in your cities?

#52. Mall Envy

What is the greatest detriment to the success of a mall or shopping complex? Location? Natural disaster? Recession/depression?

The Black mall: devoid of business
None of the above. Try clientele. Shopping complexes and malls last as viable consumer destinations only as long as the clientele engaging in frequenting the establishment remains conducive to those stores staying business.

Once that shopping complex/mall becomes breeding ground for delinquency, fights and shoplifting, those consumers who keep the stores in business will inevitably flock to the newest, shiniest and safest shopping complex/mall until the process of urbanization transpires again.

Who are these clientele that erode the consumers confidence in the shopping complex/mall? Black people:
With the news that the Shops of Grand Avenue are going to be sold at public auction, it reminds me of a joke by Chris Rock, who I consider one of the most socially conscious African-American comedians working today.

During a stand-up routine, Rock talked about his experience visiting various American cities. In each city, he noticed a curious thing:

"They've got the white mall, and the mall white people used to go to."

It's a funny line made all the more funnier by the fact it's a true reflection of what has been happening to malls in urban areas all across the U.S. I don't think Rock's joke accuses whites of racism as much as it just reflects real life. Racial dynamics do play a part in the success or failure of some business ventures; if nobody ever acknowledges it, that's a sign of denial.

And that's no joke.
Every major city in America has a mall that is relatively new, with refugees masquerading as consumers who have been forced to flee an older mall that Black people have unfortunately brought to economic ruin with  behavior that is replicated in geographically diverse locations as Kansas City, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Wherever Black people shop (or, mill around) that shopping complex/mall will quickly enter a state of economic disarray brought about by a removal of non-Black capital from those stores. Black people don't like this and refer to it as "Mall envy":
Tracey Munno, executive vice president and general manager at Lincoln Mall in south suburban Matteson, has spent the past four years trying to build a high-end retail presence at the once-thriving mall. Such a project is an ultimate numbers game for malls and retailers: How much space exists? How much money do people in the area make? How much revenue does the mall bring in?

But Munno said there was one number in particular that concerned retailers interested in setting up shop. “I had a meeting one day with a sit-down restaurant—a national chain,” she said. “I had a call back from them, and [the restaurant representative] said very straightforward: ‘Look, we like your site best, but you have one number that concerns us.’ I said to them, ‘I know exactly what number you’re talking about, so let’s talk about it.’”

The “diversity” of the trade area—the area between three to 10 miles surrounding the mall—has been a source of concern to potential retailers, Munno said. According to the 2000 Census, the population in the Lincoln Mall’s ZIP code, 60443, was 54.2 percent African American. And she’s spent a considerable amount of energy trying to debunk the preconceived notions about the shopping patterns of black consumers.

Munno said once she explained to the restaurant representative that African Americans living in the area were purchasing $250,000 and $350,000 homes and had median family incomes of $74,797 in 1999, she received a letter of intent two weeks later from the chain to build their restaurant.

The Chicago Reporter examined four South Side and south suburban malls located in areas with large black populations and two north and northwest suburban malls in predominately white areas based on a number of variables— such as size, number of “anchor stores,” extra amenities like movie theaters and food courts, and profit—along with an analysis of crime statistics, median area income and shoppers’ observations. The Reporter found myriad ways in which shopping can be a markedly different experience for black shoppers trying to buy items in their own communities than in white neighborhoods.

But the issue of perception among retailers about how African Americans want to spend their money and where they want to spend it seems to play a significant role in what shopping options are available for black shoppers. Retail experts say there is a pervasive belief that black shoppers lack either the money or the taste to get high-quality goods and services—an impression black consumers say is undeserved.
For those consumers who might have stumbled upon a "Black mall" a few signs that can give away the once flourishing, but now floundering monument to consumerism can be quickly identified and will undoubtedly be of great service to you.

1. Foot Locker, Champs Sports or other "shoe stores" as one of the only brand-name "anchors" in the mall is a dead giveaway. 


2. No brand name restaurants in the food court.


3. No white people shopping. In fact, very few people shopping but most would-be consumers engaging in a form of perpetual loitering.


4. Security plexiglass safely keeping DVDs, perfume/ cologne and other valuables from the consumer with the fear of shoplifting being the greatest concern instead of actual sales. 

5. If a mall can no longer pay to keep lights on, then you need to leave immediately. 

6. No classical music playing over the PA system. 

How many malls/shopping complexes have faded into bankruptcy and irrelevancy because of the negative impact of Black shoppers/loiterssealed its own fate and eventual demise:
Once again, it seems there's a problem with black kids at the shopping mall.

This time it's the Bayshore Town Center instituting temporary new rules banning teenagers from the mall during certain hours unless accompanied by an adult or guardian. A few years ago, problems were reported with black kids at Mayfair Mall, which responded with a similar policy.

Although never targeted at any specific racial demographic, the restrictions at Mayfair sparked a debate about the perception of certain young people in our community. It's happening again.

The problems at Bayshore Town Shopping Center involved the behavior of mainly black kids who have recently discovered the mall as a popular hangout.

The tipping point reportedly came the day after Christmas when more than 100 young people congregated in the food court. Some store owners and shoppers became upset with their behavior and police were called.
I've seen the report on the incident by the Glendale Police Department. It says there was a "report of 100 juveniles fighting in food court," but officers found there was "no fight. Just hundreds of juveniles gathering using obscene and threatening language."

This all harks back to the days of the old Northridge Mall, which closed after experiencing similar complaints about unruly behavior and inadequate security. Young black people were blamed for that, too.

How many malls/shopping complexes now sit empty and are a colossal eye-sore because of the impact of not a natural disaster nor an economic collapse, but because of Black people? This question might not be answerable, however a list of dead malls can be found at this Web site. http://www.deadmalls.com/

Stuff Black People Don't Like includes mall envy, a conundrum that plagues every city in America where Black people shop. Eventually, builders will locate more land to erect a massive shopping structure upon that will inevitably be overwhelmed by the presence of Black people, thus necessitating the building of another shopping complex/mall.

The process is never-ending and is repeated in every state, city and county that has a Black population equating to more than five percent.

Worse, online shoppers find purchasing from Black people on the same popularity level as shopping with the
them.

White Rage and the TSA: Comparing Stop and Frisk in the Hood to Pat Downs at the Airport

For those who fly the friendly skies – for business, travel, employment – you will understand the context of what is about to written.

The Transportation Services Administration (TSA) is an organization of inept individuals who take pleasure and delight at having the illusion of power to harass and exploit their hegemony over timid airline passenger’s intent on merely getting through security with their dignity intact.
Stop and Frisk < TSA agents methods

The backlash against the TSA has shown that a push back against the growing police state that has been erected to ensure Black Run America’s (BRA) continued existence is underway, for only through a combination of ambivalence and silence could this tyrannical regime have continued unabated.
The mid-term elections of 2010 showed that strange things are afoot across America and were but a harbinger of something greater, more immense.

After years of state-sanctioned abuse (the preferential treatment of Black people and deference to them in academia, movies, government, corporations, etc), who would have thought that the rise of Middle American Radicals (MARs) would become most vociferous in the realm of airline passengers and pilots finally revolting against the long-arms of the groping state and its TSA goof-troop?

Being subjected to abuse from proles dressed in blue, whom douse the air with a pungent scent of state-ordained authority and demand a removal of shoes, toiletries, belts, laptops and most of all, the dignity, from the passenger has finally agitated the proletariat.

The full-body scanners and the groping imposed upon those who opt-out of these machines that take naked pictures has finally resulted in a full-fledged revolt against a government intent on punishing those who fly with a sampling of what it must feel like to be Black in America.

Black people – who commit a disproportionate amount of the crime in America – have long been subjected to random searches and frisks by police only trying to keep violent neighborhoods safe from continued escalations of mayhem.

Driving While Black has long been a pain for Black people, nearing the enmity they feel when people lock their car doors when they approach. Subjected to high-levels of police surveillance because of the high-levels of crime committed by fellow Black people, innocent Black people protest such intrusions of their civil liberties.

In a word, the TSA decided that every airline passenger was to be considered a nigger (the-word-that-shall-not-be-named), subjecting them to the same tactics that Disingenuous White Liberals (DWLs) and Black racial hucksters complain ghetto Black people experience daily. Instead of random stop and frisks that take place in major cities where Black crime is a common, everyday occurrence, every airline passenger (regardless of age, color, creed or sexual orientation) and airline employee is treated callously by the TSA who deem each passenger a gangbanger until proven otherwise.
Keeping America safe, one nap at a time

Small children are considered terrorists who must be subjected to humiliating searches, while their parents are coerced to watch lest they be denied access to a flight. Elderly passengers are treated like the three “hoods” from the hilarious movie House Party – who terrorize a ghetto neighborhood and are harassed by white cops – and subjected to the same stop and frisk techniques normally reserved for Black people in major cities where Black crime is sad fact of life.

One Web site was even honest in describing the backlash, calling it “white rage”:

White folks are furious that TSA has decided to "grope" them. Guess what, white devils. This is the same shit that black men deal with every fucking day of their lives:

Blacks and Latinos were nine times as likely as whites to be stopped by the police in New York City in 2009, but, once stopped, were no more likely to be arrested.

Fuck you and your indignity. You didn't care about the Constitution when someone else's rights were being violated. Why then should anyone care about you when your rights are violated?

Oh, and those police-killing-dog videos that outrage you? Imagine if that was your child being murdered? In the ghetto, it's children being put into body bags.

Are you starting to understand "black rage"?

It'd be great if we could all learn something from TSA's disgraceful acts. It'd be great if white people would say, "Holy shit. This fucking sucks! Now I understand why black people hate cops so much, and why many of them have 'checked out' of society. Perhaps we should put an end to racial profiling, and stop treating black males like a permanent underclass."

None of that, however, will happen. Instead, white people will wrap up their rage in the Constitution. When blacks are harassed, the Constitution will resume its proper place as a refuge for criminals - who are always trying to get off on a technicality. 

The problem is simply this: Black people have a hard time cooperating with the police because they feel that the police are out to get them. White people have complied with increasing levels of TSA scrutiny and finally reached a breaking point.

Police utilize the stop and frisk method to deter criminals, who are disproportionately Black. In violent cities, such as New York and New Orleans, this method has proven effective at lowering crime. An overwhelming number of those stopped are Black, because an overwhelming number of the crimes are committed by Black people.

At airports, every passenger is treated as a potential criminal. Even pilots, who could easily crash the plane they command if they so desired, thus negating a search for weapons but necessitating psychological screenings instead.

Indeed, all airline passengers are considered by the TSA to be nothing more than the word-that-shall-not-be-named, until proven otherwise.

Finally, the people who have been subjected to dehumanizing treatment by TSA agents overdosing on power have spoken.

Being treated like a nigg, er, we mean the word-that-shall-not-be-named finally drove normal Americans crazy. Call it “white rage” or just call it common sense.

#421. The 'Noose' Halloween Decoration

Few things in life conjure images of dread more than the prospect of death. The macabre thought of how we will meet our end is a contemplation few dare entertain.

Halloween is a time of the year where the ghostly, ghoulish, ghastly, grisly, grotesque and terrifying are confronted, traditionally a day where our own mortality is in question.

People visit haunted houses in an attempt to have their senses overloaded with simulated frights, all the while looking at iconography glorifying instruments that have contributed to death. No Halloween decoration induces fear quite like the noose, the hangman’s knot that has horrified criminals for many a century.

Hanging wit silent horror, the noose is a fear-inducing device that spells doom for whoever has the ignominy of wearing it on their neck.

A most garish Halloween decoration, the noose has become a contentious source of angst for Black people who see this particular ornamentation in people’s yards. The noose is the device used in lynchings that history tells us are a prominent scar upon white America that will never fade.

Lynchings have been called the “Holocaust of Black people” though from a span of “1882 and 1951, 4,730 people were lynched in the United States: 3,437 Negro and 1,293 white.” Lynchings have long been looked upon as a form of racial oppression, though the primary reasoning behind using a noose on a criminal was to bring about swift justice and deter illegal behavior in “outlaw” territory.

Lynching was used a tool to discourage rape, effectively sending a message to would be sexual predators. According to FBI statistics, 37,000+ white women were raped or sexually assaulted in 2005 alone in the United States, so this message has long been forgotten.

The rate of lynching’s by race from 1882-1951 correlates interestingly to the disproportionate amount of crime committed by Black people in today’s America. Even in the days when lynching was “prominent”, the nation only averaged 68 a year. A cursory glance of Thugreport.com shows you more than 68 horrible stories of death transpiring daily across the nation.

Yet the pernicious myth of lynching continues unabated, leaving Halloween displays exploiting a noose as a scare prop quite vulnerable:
A Halloween display in Springfield, Ill., will be modified because of concerns that it is racist, the local NAACP said.

A compromise was reached Thursday in meeting of city officials, Springfield's National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and homeowner, Josh Witkowski, The Springfield State Journal-Register reported.

Springfield NAACP President Archie Lawrence had complained at Tuesday's city council meeting that the display was an effigy of a black man hanging from gallows. The hanging figure was dressed as a cowboy, its legs tied with rope, with a dark-colored skull.

Witkowski said he will change the color of the mask to silver with red and brown tones underneath. The cowboy hat will be removed to prevent casting a shadow on the mask. The rest of the display will remain the same, he said.

"After talking to Mr. Witkowski, one thing I am certain: It was never his intent to have a racist prop in his yard. I am absolutely certain of that," said Lawrence. "And to show the goodness of this man, what he did was he changed the prop to clearly reflect that it's just a Halloween image, nothing more and nothing less."
This happens all over the nation as those exterior decorators daring to employ nooses in their shrines of fright quickly cast themselves in league with mephistophelean white devils of the past:
In a dozen incidents during the weeks before Halloween this year, black and white Americans around the country faced a kind of Rorschach test of the national psyche: Is that a funny Halloween ghoul in a noose hanging from your neighbor’s tree? Or is that a racist symbol of lynching hiding in the Halloween tableau?...
The Rev. Johnny Gamble, pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church in Stratford, heard complaints from parishioners and went to see it for himself.

“At first, I couldn’t believe my eyes. But there it was. A mannequin of a black man, hanging from the neck,” said Mr. Gamble, who is black.

When he knocked at the door, Joyce Mounajed, Miss Cervero’s mother, told him the figure was not meant to be a black man, but was dark-hued to convey the idea of decaying flesh. It was “just a decoration,” he said she told him.

“I told her, ‘We don’t decorate like that. That is a symbol of lynching,’” Mr. Gamble said. “What if my great-grandfather was lynched? There are no two ways of looking at this; that thing is extremely offensive.”

The origins of Halloween are murky, with links to pagan traditions, All Saints Day (a Christian holiday celebrated the next day) and the great Hollywood tradition of Freddy Krueger’s undead tribe. But in all its versions, sociologists say, it has been a holiday that celebrates transgressions of one kind or another.

Richard Lachman, professor of sociology at the State University of New York at Albany, said the noose is a fairly new part of outdoor Halloween displays, hardly seen until the last few years.

“It cannot be taken as a joke,” he said, considering the history of lynching in the United States.
Jokes are no longer tolerated in America, especially on Halloween where a noose will always be construed as a device used for the impending lynching of a Black person. The connotations are just too obvious, even when turned around:
It's a still photo taken of a Halloween decoration in front of a house here in Houston. In that video you see two stuffed decorations.

One represents a Black man with a noose around a White man's neck. That White man appears to be picking cotton.

The family in Houston that posted that decoration on their lawn has since taken it down. But they described it as just a Halloween prank.
What do you think? Is this a joke in bad taste?
Philip Dray's new book on lynching fits into that conventional wisdom.  Unless one is predisposed to question the Left's image of white Americans, a reader will be inclined to accept its narrative at face value.  Dray has written a readable chronology of lynching, with emphasis especially on the South, and shows the product of considerable research into the subjects he considers important. 
            This said, it remains important to note the ways his book lacks perspective.  (What follows is a discussion of just some of those ways, since a complete examination of them would go far beyond the scope of a book review):
            1.  His entire theme ("the lynching of black America") repeats the now-customary premise that lynching was primarily an expression of racism.  "Lynching," he says, "was a form of caste oppression... the white world's cruelty"; and, elsewhere, "victims were chosen for their race."
            What is odd is that he cites quite a lot of counter-evidence, but never reflects about it.  He tells about the San Francisco Vigilante Committees of 1851 and 1856; about the hanging of the white gamblers in Vicksburg; about the lynching of eleven whites in New Orleans in 1891 after the Police Superintendent was shot from ambush; that half the thirty lynch victims in Illinois after 1882 were white; that thirty-five whites were lynched in North Dakota in the mid-1880s for cattle rustling; and much more.  Lynching was not limited by race or by region of the country.
            Robert Zangrando's The NAACP Crusade Against Lynching, 1909-1950, cites the figures compiled by the Tuskegee Institute: that during the 87 year span between 1882 and 1968 a total of 1,297 whites and 3,445 blacks were lynched.  If racism were the prime mover, the almost 1,300 whites require some explanation.  The major explanation as an alternative to the racial one is the amount of crime to which local communities were reacting. 
            We know, of course, of the cattle-rustling and other crimes committed in the "wild west."  What most people today don't know about is the extent of black crime in the South.  In his book on lynching, James Elbert Cutler quotes with favor a statement that during those years "the worst instincts of the negro came to the front; the percentage of criminals among negroes increased to an alarming extent; many were guilty of crimes of violence of the most heinous and repulsive kind."  Another author tells that "in 1921-22, the homicide rates in Atlanta, Birmingham, Memphis, and New Orleans per 100,000 Negro population were 103.2, 97.2, 116.9, and 46.7 respectively, while the corresponding rates for the white population were 15.0, 28.0, 29.6, and 8.4."  W.E.B. DuBois, the black-activist leader whom today's conventional wisdom perhaps respects most from among the black leaders of that day, spoke candidly of "a class of black criminals, loafers, and ne'er-do-wells who are a menace to their fellows, both black and white."  That three-quarters of those lynched were black isn't surprising under those circumstances. 
            Dray makes the point that some of the lynchings were for trivial offenses, but fails to mention that there were whites as well as blacks who ran afoul of this.  In Pine Level, North Carolina, in 1908, blacks themselves lynched a black entertainer for "putting on a poor show."
No one wants to look upon a noose and have the chilling final thought that this rope will be their apparatus of doom. Chances are, though, if this was your final thought then you broke the law and the noose was warranted.

Stuff Black People Don’t Like includes the noose decoration, for Disingenuous White Liberals constantly bemoan the Holocaust against Black people that transpired from 1882-1951. Those who celebrate Halloween are warned not to use the noose in terrifying displays they create, for Black people who have been told of the past evils of white people by Crusading White Pedagogues will find nothing but racism in these hangman’s knots.

Sometimes that might be warranted, but most of the time it’s all done in good fun to elicit a fright.

There is nothing more frightening then the silhouette of a human swaying back and forth, with the sun departing in the background. The noose decoration is a reminder that law could once again be restored to the lawless; Black, Brown or white.

What is a Stereotype? The NAACP Targets Newport

All stereotypes turn out to be true. This is a horrifying thing about life. All those things you fought against as a youth: you begin to realize they're stereotypes because they're true.
David Cronenberg

A word rarely used here is stereotype. It is an ugly word, because ideas have to have a genesis. You would be shocked to know what search terms entered by people on Google, Bing and Yahoo once drove traffic here (before Google blocked search bots from bringing people here on random searches that might trigger a match).

Black people can’t swim. Yes, we know this. Black people don’t tip. Check. We got it. 

Stereotypes are true, we know this. But in a society governed by the ideals of Black Run America (BRA), observing a stereotype or making mention of what one has noticed of a stereotype is a recipe for professional suicide. Block them from your mind. 

Black people might be loud at movies, but this shouldn’t dissuade you from noticing those Black outliers who watch films in blissful silence. 

It was Dave Chappelle himself who profited by playing upon Black stereotypes, making it seemingly okay for people to laugh at Black people

Now an organization that prides itself upon fighting for the advancement of Black people has decided to say enough is enough and attempt to end one pernicious stereotype:
The FDA's deliberations over a possible ban on menthol cigarettes have touched off a firestorm of debate within the African American community, and among public health groups divided about how to wean black consumers from their heavy dependence on cigarettes spiked with the minty flavoring.

On Monday, the debate among African American organizations burst into the open after the National Assn. for the Advancement of Colored People, or NAACP,  joined ranks with the anti-smoking group, the American Legacy Foundation, in calling for a ban on menthol as a cigarette flavoring.

The NAACP's appeal came just days after three other African American groups -- the Congress of Racial Equality, the National Black Chamber of Commerce, and the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives -- urged the FDA to reject a ban on mentholated cigarettes. Those groups, testifying before a recent meeting of the FDA's scientific advisory panel on tobacco products, expressed concern that banning mentholated cigarettes could spur an illicit market for the outlawed products in minority communities where they are favored. Such a trade in banned menthol cigarettes, in turn, would likely drive a range of illegal activity and put new burdens on law enforcement agencies, they warned…


After decades of marketing mentholated cigarettes in minority communities and blunting criticism by supporting minority causes, the tobacco companies have secured a huge following in minority communities, where rates of smoking remain stubbornly high. As many as 80% of African American smokers favor menthols, as do 30% of Latinos. By comparison, 22% of non-Latino whites smoke mentholated cigarettes. At least one large study, published in 2009, has found that those who smoke mentholated cigarettes find it harder to kick the habit than those who smoke unflavored tobacco…

"Menthol is not just a flavorant; it makes it easier for our youth to start smoking; it keeps people smoking, and it inhibits them from quitting," said Carol McGruder, co-chair of the African American Tobacco Control Leadership Council. "Menthol makes the poison go down easier."

"We are in a state of disbelief that some of our Black leadership organizations ... continue to act as front groups for the predatory tobacco industry," McGruder fumed.
 What next? The NAACP declaring that McDonald’s 365 Black campaign is a repugnant and frontal assault on healthy Black diets? With passing on seconds a rarity and waistlines expanding in the Black community, this could transpire soon.

Menthols first, McDonald’s second. What will they come for next? What's left?

Richard Lapchick - our favorite Disingenuous White Liberal (DWL) - always crusading for some inane cause, published a piece bemoaning the lack of Black people in commercials during the Super Bowl:
As I watched this year with my wife, Ann, we both remarked how many ads seemed to go way over the line with stereotypical images that could be considered offensive. In the months since they aired, I've looked further into the content of those ads and the people who produced them; and it became apparent that both areas reflected a stunning lack of cultural diversity and sensitivity.
For example:
• Only four of the 67 ads shown during the Super Bowl had an African-American male as a main character; and of those four, only two (Bud Light's "Light House" and Doritos' "House Rules") involved an actor who is not a well-known celebrity. Other minorities, including minority women, did not have a leading role in any of the commercials. (Beyoncé was on the screen for less than 10 percent of her Vizio commercial, so that was not considered a leading role.) The minority actors who were present in the ads had limited speaking roles or received just a few seconds of camera time.
• There was also a lack of depictions of black middle-class families in the ads. The Doritos "House Rules" ad showed an African-American single mom ready to go on a date, reinforcing a stereotypical image of African-American women as single mothers caring for their young children with no father figure present…
A few months ago, Cyrus Mehri, a civil rights attorney and a friend, told me he was working with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to take action against the Madison Avenue agencies he felt were discriminating in the areas of race and gender. We talked about how ads bearing negative images can reinforce stereotypes and damage race and gender relations.
The inherent problem in this strategy of having Black pitchmen in commercials is the one that plagues Newport and soon, McDonald’s. Black people will find something worth complaining about, for the commercials will only reinforce negative stereotypes and the corporations peddling their wares on the airwaves will be attacked for perpetuating hateful labels and worse, hooking Black people on an addictive product.

 Don King who once said, “Only in Amerca.”

SBPDL can simply respond, “Only in Black Run America.”

 Stereotypes are true and this should horrify those who preside over Black Run America.

The entire country, and for that matter the world know it is built upon a house of sand. A cursory glance at this Web site;s archive provides mounds of data to support that statement; and the unfiltered, private conversations of millions of people prove that the knowledge of stereotypes is pervasive and not contained to those who can see.

So-called "racists" don't just believe and disseminate stereotypes of Black people; the entire country partakes in this national pastime. Even the NAACP.
