This just builds on the whole Imus situation.
In New Orleans (before the hurricane) there was about 300 murders a year. About 98% were committed by blacks and about 95% of the victims were black.. Black on Black murder.
Then there was a night club incident, 1 black bouncer and 2 white bouncers got into a fight with a group of blacks trying to get into a night club in the french quarter. During the fight one of the black guys was killed. I believe he had a medical condition that attributed to it, he was pinned down and couldn't breath, maybe ashma, i am not sure.
So the blacks were outraged. A white man had killed a black man. It was automatically assumed it was racially motived. If you are white and you kill a black person it is racially motivated 100% of the time (so they say). The blacks were protesting, all over the news, screaming, they brought down the NAACP to organize protests, put pressure on the mayor saying hate crimes would not be tolerated. How dare whitie kill a brother.
Funny thing, for the other 299 blacks that were killed that year by other blacks, you never heard 1 peep out of the black community. The NAACP never came to the city or said a word about the other 299 blacks that were killed. No protest by the black community, no going after the mayor to do something about those murders, nothing was said or done.
It's ironic, are they saying those 299 blacks didn't matter ? Why was 1 death so much more important than the other deaths. Isn't a murder a murder ? do you think the dead guy cares about the color of the guy who killed him ? Does it make sense to put so much energy into 1 death (that possibly had nothing to do with race and there was even a black bouncer who was involved), instead of focusing on what is killing hundreds of other blacks ? Is that saying we don't care if we kill each other but we be damed if whitie kills us.????
Does this make sense to anyone else?
