A question I get a lot:
RT @amigorivas: @ColinFlaherty many comments on your last article accuse all blacks of being uncivil and animals, what do you think? is that fair?
ANSWER:
Of course that is not fair.
The psychiatrists tell us we are only as sick as our secrets. And nothing is more secretive in America than racial violence.
So it is no surprise that there are lots of sick attitudes about it. Racism is a sickness. No doubt about that.
Why else would people stand by and watch hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of examples of black mob violence that I documented in my book, many on video, then deny they exist.
Why is it reporters and others can talk black caucuses, black colleges, black labor unions, black police officers, and on and on. But when someone says: ‘Hey, all this mob violence is black people. Did you notice that? ‘ They all turn color blind.
The people who commit black mob violence are full of anger and resentment and sickness. No doubt about that.
The people who condone are even crazier.
When I write or talk about racial violence, I obey the following rules: No generalizations. No Stereotypes. No apologies.
If everyone followed those rules, maybe we could get out of our secretive mode and start figuring out what is behind this tsunami of racial violence in this country. Instead of going around playing gotcha games with unfortunate people who raise their eyebrows at the wrong time and end up being accused of being racist.
The Great Thomas Sowell said it best: A racist is a conservative winning an argument with a liberal.
In the meantime, I remind you that I have written 150,000 words on this. And spoken just as many. And I am proud of every single one and do not have any problem repeating every single one in any public square, big or small.
thanks for replying, your claim is understandable knowing the reality, but I think is not true when you say that media “ignores” this, I’ve seen the videos, and I see clearly the race of the attackers, so the problem is reported, maybe your concern comes with use of the word “black” in the news, you want to see it perfectly on every newscast who reports these events, without distinctions, without grayscales. Your point is valid but ignores the fact that many blacks disapproves such acts, and also black people are affected by these attacks physically or morally, your readers and you don’t make that distinction bringing as inference that these attacks are clearly or basically racially motivated against non-whites
it is customary when playing with the big boys to support your claims. i documented 500 examples of this …many with videos. documenting the news story versus the reality. and you come along and breezily dismiss it without a single link. may i suggest you get a job covering crime and politics for a major daily paper? you have the perfect temperament.
