Growing up in Baltimore: Hellish. Letter from a victim of a lifetime of racial violence

June 19, 2014 — 3 Comments

 

Where to start.. Growing up in Baltimore city can be hellish for white people these days.

My best lifelong friend is black, and on numerous occasions as a child he has had to stand up against hordes of blacks for me saying things like ”this is my cousin” or whatever to cull them. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn’t. I guess it would’ve been around 2nd grade when I started fighting back. White, Asian, and Hispanic people are always targeted, bullied, and harassed unrelentingly and it’s something everyone USED TO know.

Nowadays, droves of rich white kids (in their 20’s) have been flooding here from surrounding counties and other states to get a piece of our punk scene here. They are bringing with them this guilt complex and telling people things like ”check your privilege” etc.

Check MY privilege?? It’s infuriating.

People aren’t understanding that race and socioeconomic status are 2 SEPARATE THINGS. If you don’t speak in code and use the correct terminology around these ”progressive” people, you are ostracized and alienated- in the name of tolerance. I’m sure I’m just beating a dead horse though, the white guilt thing is just new to me because its always been the other way around growing up here.

Anyone who isn’t black is a target. Anyone who IS black is driving around in a lexus with stacks of cash on hand, using EBT cards, and being automatically entitled to programs and services that nobody with ”privilege” seems to be eligible for.

Myself and friends of mine have on numerous occasions been the target of black on white violence. From elementary school where the teachers just brush it under the rug, to our 20s where now its random street attacks sometimes involving weapons that the police and media both refuse to acknowledge.

I was walking from my car to my $200 a month warehouse apartment (because whites can’t get jobs here) around 2006 or 2007. There was a black kid standing in front of my alley and another one on the bus stop and I saw them make eye contact. Being a Baltimore native, suspecting something would be called street smarts.

Nowadays I’d be called racist for even having an inkling that something was up. Anyhow I walked past him and was struck over the head with a piece of angle iron. I know that because I found it laying in the alley when I was released from the hospital. I had about a 6 inch laceration across the top of my head, and receiving bruised ribs from being kicked on the ground. The initial hit was so hard that I actually lost all vision for about 20 minutes.

I collapsed in the alley against a curb and held myself there until my vision started to come back. The first thing I saw was a growing puddle of blood and immediately walked to the hospital. *I find it worth noting that most if not all of our hospitals are predominantly black* I was made to sit in the waiting room for 3 hours after being told by a nurse “wow I can see yo skull”. I got 27 staples and was released without so much as a CT scan.

This kind of thing happens every day, and people who suffer so deeply from their guilt complexes to deny this behavior really starts to piss off people who’ve been on the receiving end of it. I’ve included a picture of my scar on my head, and one of my old roommate who was savaged 2 years ago.

I was back in town after working out in North Dakota for a spell, and my roommates and I went out to a bar not too far from our east Baltimore house. He rode his bike home. He never made it home that night. His father came by the next day and informed us that he was brutally attacked on the way home.

A Cadillac pulled over about a half of a block ahead of him, and 4 blacks got out, kicked him off his bike, and beat him to a pulp with brass knuckles (in front of a black security guard at PENN station who waited about 20 minutes to call police). He was in a coma for 2 days. He has actually taken up the white guilt and doesn’t talk to me anymore because of my stark opinions.

With all the increasing instances of massive black mob attacks, people are starting to ask the question “Why is this happening and how are they orchestrated so well?”. From what I can tell from growing up in less than desirable neighborhoods with black panthers spewing hate speech on street corners, this is just collective mentality.

Even black friends will admit to having gotten ”the talk” from their parents growing up. It seems nearly every black person in this country has an innate/ingrained self of 2 things. Self entitlement, and hatred for whites (and Asians and Hispanics at this point). They walk around all day every day with chips on their shoulders, usually in packs of about 3-5 looking to start problems.

Whether it be blocking traffic and threatening people who have a problem with it, or just random acts of violence towards the first white person they see. During events where multiple 3-5 person groups encounter each other, what you get is what you see. Mob violence. The mentality is the same. I’ve watch it a thousand times. I’ve seen 2 blacks try to jump a white guy who handed their asses to them. Around 4 or 5 other (TOTALLY UNAFILLIATED) blacks came from the 2 bus stops across the street and helped pound the white guy until the cops showed up.

There are plenty of ‘no-go’ zones in my city, but its been pouring out into the nicer neighborhoods now, especially since black families have been getting house vouchers in the surrounding counties. Sorry if I’m ranting man, this was supposed to be like 1 paragraph. I just can’t talk about anything that goes on without being shunned and reprimanded by brainwashed white people.
