In 61% white/28% black Nashville, Blacks Committed 71% of Cleared Homicide Cases in 2016

We call this story a perfect example of burying the lede. Can you find it? 

But first, it's important to note Nashville is 61 percent white and 28 percent black (since it is insufficiently non-white, the city has been targeted for cultural enrichment via massive refugee resettlement). 

Okay, ready? [Nashville criminal homicides most in more than a decade, The Tennessean, January 4, 2017]:

Criminal homicides in Nashville rose to 84 in 2016, marking the highest number of killings in the city since 97 people died in 2005.

Nashville: 61 percent white and 28 percent black. In 2016, 71 percent of known homicide suspects were black

At the same time, the year saw a 40 percent drop in youth killings over 2015, when 20 of the city's youths were slain — a total that prompted Mayor Megan Barry to launch an initiative aimed at curbing violence among the city's young people.

"It's just sad that so many people got killed for senseless crimes last year," said Joyce Seay, whose 24-year-old son, Deon Brown, was found stabbed to death in mid-November on the property of a West Nashville trucking business. "It's very (disheartening) we've jumped to that high of a rate in such a small period."

Police charged 26-year-old William Gadsden with criminal homicide in the case after they say he fatally wounded Brown before driving Brown’s 2009 Pontiac G6 to Hickory, N.C. Gadsden was later apprehended by U.S. Marshals in New York City and extradited to Tennessee.

"I'm just glad they got him and thankful to the detective who worked the case," said Seay, whose son's case is one of 41 cases from 2016 that police have cleared.

Of those slain last year, 73 were male. All but 33 were African-American. The youngest gunshot victim was a 14-year-old boy.

Of the 84 criminal homicides in 2016, 12 of the victims were teenagers or younger. Two of them were infants who died as the result of abuse.

The prior year marked the highest number of youth deaths to hit Nashville in the past decade. Much of the city's violence that year played out among youths as acts of brutal retaliation for squabbles that police said were once settled by punches instead of bullets.

"Over the last year, Nashville has seen a dramatic decrease in youth homicide victims, and Metro police have worked hard to keep crime in check in 2016, resulting in a slight reduction in the crime rate overall even as our population continues to grow," said Barry, who during the first portion of the year created an action plan to reduce youth violence. 

The mayor's plan sought to identify challenges and needs, outline goals and objectives, recommend best practices and identify the city's shortcomings.

Police investigations also have taken more than 2,000 firearms off the streets in each of the past two years, Barry said.

"Unfortunately, Nashville was not immune," Metro Police Chief Steve Anderson said. "I am heartened that the number of juvenile homicide victims decreased significantly this year. Our city’s Youth Violence Reduction Initiative, led by Mayor Barry, and the accompanying follow-up work did, I believe, have a very positive impact."

At the same time, Anderson said he is concerned about "the seemingly nonchalant use of firearms against victims, many of whom we believe are in some way acquainted with the shooters."

More than 80 percent of 2016’s homicide victims were killed with firearms, records show.

"We, as a city, should also be cognizant of the significant disparate impact of homicide on African-American families," Anderson said.

Of those arrested in homicides last year, 71 percent are black.

The chief added, "Strategies related to the 2016 Youth Violence Reduction must continue into the future, with required broad reinforcement of the message from parents, extended families, neighbors, churches, schools and community leaders to all of Nashville."

Nashville criminal homicides by year:

• 2016: 84
• 2015: 79
• 2014: 41
• 2013: 40
• 2012: 62
• 2011: 51
• 2010: 60
• 2009: 80
• 2008: 74
• 2007: 73
• 2006: 81
• 2005: 97

By the numbers

Males: 73

Females: 11

Victims younger than the age of 19: 12 

Black: 51

White: 23

Hispanic: 8

Asian: 1

Other: 1

Cases cleared: 41 

Open cases: 43 

Did you find it?

Here it is highlighted for you: "Of those arrested in homicides last year, 71 percent are black."

Nashville is 61 percent white and 28 percent black and more than half of 2016 homicides are still not cleared, meaning blacks represent suspects in 29 of the 41 cases cleared.

If blacks are found in suspects of the remaining open cases (which is highly likely), then blacks, representing only 28 percent of the Nashville population, could be responsible for 85 percent of the homicides in 2016.

Any sane social policy/criminal reduction strategy would be to understand this data (what has been dubbed as a form of thought crime known as pattern recognition) and use it to actual make Nashville a safer city.

Right?

San Francisco Chronicle Covers Up Black Violent Crime Epidemic in Six Percent Black City by... Blaming Whites for Low Clearance Rate in Black Homicides

Previously on SBPDL: What Happens If We Lose? Six Percent Black San Francisco in Early Stages of Making it Illegal to Arrest Blacks


In six percent black San Francisco, we get a glimpse of the horror of egalitarian terror taken to its extreme, where black people's propensity to protect black criminals - via the well observed notion of 'no snitching' - serves as the basis for a whimpering article in the San Francisco Chronicle. 

The piece bemoans the relatively high-clearance rates in homicides involving white and Asian victims (68 percent and 65.3 percent) versus homicides involving black and brown people. 

In six percent black San Francisco, there were 162 black victims of homicide between 2010-2015, with 37 percent cleared; in the 15 percent Hispanic city, there were 45 homicides involving a Latino vicim during the same period, with 37.7 percent cleared. 

Somehow, this is all white people's fault.[Deep racial disparity in homicide arrests, SFPD data show, San Francisco Chronicle, 1-30-2016]:

When it comes to the police arresting suspects in homicide cases, the race of the victim plays an outsize role in San Francisco. 

San Francisco police make arrests in homicide cases where the victim is white or Asian at nearly twice the rate in homicide cases with African American or Latino victims — 67.1 percent compared with 37.1 percent — according to a Chronicle analysis of police arrest data from homicides that occurred from Jan. 1, 2010, through July 31, 2015.

The disparity has perpetuated feelings of racial inequality in the black community, where many people have a story of a friend or relative whose homicide went unsolved.  

“They are solving other people’s cases and not our children’s cases,” said Paulette Brown, one of several African American women who comes to City Hall several times a month to speak before the Board of Supervisors and the Police Commission, pleading for the police to arrest someone for their sons’ homicides. Brown’s 17-year old son was gunned down in 2006 outside her house in North of the Panhandle. “I always said if my son was a little white boy would his case be solved?” Brown said. “If I was a white woman would my son’s case be solved? I think about that all the time.”  

The reasons for the disparity in the arrest rates vary, police and criminal justice experts say. One big reason they cite is that Latinos and African Americans who witness homicides are less willing to talk with the police, out of fear of retaliation but also a deep mistrust of the police — a suspicion intensified by the fatal San Francisco police shooting of Mario Woods, an African American, last month.But relatives of slain victims also question whether the police are doing all they can to investigate the homicides of black victims — a claim the Police Department rejects.  

“Everyone thinks everyone else is getting a better deal,” said Toney Chaplin, commander of investigations at the Police Department. “We are looking at everything to help the solve rate.” 

African Americans accounted for 55 percent of homicide victims between Jan. 1, 2010, and July 31, 2015, even though they make up less than 6 percent of the city’s population. 

Over the same period, Latinos accounted for 15 percent of homicide victims, equal to their percentage of the population. Whites accounted for 17 percent of homicide victims, although they make up 41 percent of the population, and Asians accounted for 9 percent of homicide victims while making up 35 percent of the population. 

Parallel reality 

The statistics underscore the parallel reality that many African Americans live in San Francisco, especially those in low-income, crime-ridden areas — where gun violence is a persistent threat and where most homicides go unsolved. 

“Every time you turn around, we have a funeral we have to go to. Someone calling me and telling me so-and-so got killed,” said Paulette Chappill-Otten, who grew up and lives in the Western Addition and has worked as a community activist for 40 years. She also goes to City Hall several times a month to encourage the Board of Supervisors and Police Commission to do something about the unsolved homicides.

The real question left out of this San Francisco Chronicle is: what was the race of the suspects in those cleared cases between 2010-2015? Why did the San Francisco Chronicle omit this information? 

So between 2010-2015, there were 293 homicides in San Francisco, with 55 percent of those being black (162). Blacks only make up six percent of the city, but the San Francisco Chronicle failed to educate us on what percent of homicide suspects are black (or brown). 

Blacks (and brown people) complain about the low clearance rate for homicides involving black and brown people, but fail to understand how relatively peaceful the city would be without their presence. 

One wonders what percent of white (and Asian) victims had a black or brown killer, but the San Francisco Chronicle is uninterested in helping us answer this question. 

The reason? Aiding in pattern recognition is a sin in Black-Run America (BRA), where obfuscation of crime/homicide statistics must never, ever be common knowledge. 

Instead, they must be kept in the realm of stereotypes, aggressively policed by authorities/elites as a thought crime if any dares utter them publicly. 

What Happens If We Lose? Six Percent Black San Francisco in Early Stages of Making it Illegal to Arrest Blacks

Previously on SBPDL: Pattern Recognition a Greater Sin than Black Criminality: BART Officials Protecting Black Criminals from "racially insensitive commentary"

What happens if we lose? 

It's a question few want to even ask and even fewer want to have answered. 

We already see in cities completely controlled monolithically by Democrats what happens to law and order, as in Oakland the city government actively suppresses releasing images or racial descriptions of suspects on public transportation to protect blacks from stereotyping (pattern recognition). 

But is life really going to be like as every action by the state and the corporate media (an entity existing solely to police the narrative and single out thought criminals for reeducation) is dedicated to advancing the interests of blacks - and non-whites - particularly black criminals? 

In six percent black San Francisco, we get a glimpse of the horror of egalitarian terror taken to its extreme. [Report: African Americans arrested in San Francisco face more serious charges than whites, ABC7News.com, June 27, 2017]:

San Francisco's public defender says he is forming a new unit to help prevent racial disparities in the city's judicial system. The conclusion of a report he released today showing that African Americans receive more serious charges when they're arrested than whites. 

"I didn't think this could happen to me in America, but it did," Leslie Elliott said. 

Elliott was charged with assault with a deadly weapon and other felonies in an incident where Elliott says she accidentally spilled coffee on a woman who told police she assaulted her and her dog. 

A jury eventually acquitted her of all charges except for resisting arrest, which is a misdemeanor. 

Public Defender Jeff Adachi said Elliott is an example of what the report found - that there are racial disparities in San Francisco's judicial system. 

The report says it all starts from the time a person of color is arrested. 

"It results in people of color, particularly African Americans, being charged with more serious charges earlier on and more charges," Adachi said. "And essentially that sets the tone for the case throughout the entire system." 

The district attorney's office says it looks only at facts and evidence in making charging decisions. 

"They're reviewing evidence submitted by the police and that does not include evidence of race," District Attorney Spokesman Max Szabo said. 

The report appears to support that saying there were no significant statistical differences in the severity of charges prosecutors added for blacks of Latinos compared to whites. 

The San Francisco Police Department responded with a statement that says in part, "our officers charge individuals based on the elements of the crimes present. The standard for an arrest is based upon probable cause." 

In response to the report, Adachi is creating a new unit with deputy public defenders ready to intervene between the arrest and arraignment of those taken into custody. 

Adachi's new unit will be launched in October.

What happens if we lose? 

It's a question few want to even ask and even fewer want to have answered. 

A new unit in San Francisco is seemingly being created with the goal of keeping non-white - particularly black - criminals capable of being exonerated from the consequences of their illegal actions.

If we lose, we live in a country where it is illegal to arrest blacks and other non-whites (Hispanics).

We will live in a country where merely being white is grounds for some form of castigation, without due process.

Black Community Activist in Baton Rogue (on city payroll) Argues White Cop Killed by Black Racialist in 2016 was "Eye for an Eye"

Want to know what blacks really think? 

Take it from the mouth of a black 'crime activist' in Baton Rogue, awarded a contract by the city to "teach communication techniques to teens designed to avoid violence and build increased respect between the community and police," who basically told government officials cops deserved to die.[After outrageous remarks about officers' deaths, mayor parts ways with activist, WBRZ.com, July 27, 2017]:

The mayor has parted ways with crime activist “Silky Slim” after he made controversial comments at Wednesday's Metro Council meeting. 

First questioned by The Advocate newspaper, “Silky Slim” remarked that justice came after Alton Sterling's death when a gunman opened fire on law enforcement, killing three and injuring numerous others weeks after Sterling was shot and killed by Baton Rouge Police. 

“Justice came when Gavin Long came,” “Silky Slim,” whose real name is Arthur Reed, told the council. “An eye for an eye,” he said. 

Council members gasped at the remarks. 

Thursday, hours after the meeting, the mayor's office issued a statement and said the two were no longer associated. 

“The remarks made at last night’s Metro Council meeting by Arthur 'Silky Slim' Reed were hateful, offensive, and frankly unacceptable,” the mayor's office said in a statement.

"Silky Slim" was hired by the mayor to teach blacks in Baton Rogue to respect police - via money provided through a federal grant program - and he went to a city council meeting and stated a dead white cop got justice in 2016 when a black male murdered him.

Now all you need to do is rinse and repeat this "Silky Slim" episode nationwide for cities where black crime is epidemic and police are mandated to create positive community relations with a racial group incompatible with western civilization.
