Ann Coulter: "If you compare white populations, we have the same murder rate as Belgium"
http://www.theroot.com ^ | January 15, 2013 | Elon White

Posted on 06/25/2013 8:22:15 PM PDT by B4Ranch

To say I'm shocked at Coulter's assertion would just be a lie. This is Ann Coulter. She says ridiculous nonsense on a regular basis. But on top of her magically ridiculous statements, the oh-so-reasonable Sean Hannity -- the host who should rein in commentary on his show that has gone completely off the rails -- simply let her statement stand. Sure, she just said that gun violence is an issue only with communities of color, but whatever.

Since when are people of color Americans? If gun violence affects only them (which it doesn't), then we don't really need to address it!

So, quick question: With these shining staples of the right wing, why should nonwhites feel comfortable with the Republican Party again?

I have one word for people like this. Savages.

Savages. A very descriptive word. It suggests a lack of cultural and social development when contrasted against civilization. With respect to adult authority figures, it implies negligence, whether willful or otherwise, in directing social development and instilling moral values.

They need to be returned to their tribes where they will most certainly fall under tribal justice laws. Our laws are made for a different class of people.

Tribes? I'm sorry to say that there is no monopoly on such savagery by any specific "tribal" group. There are plenty of savages to go around for all races. What you seem to be focusing are the higher percentages within certain demographics, I guess.

What gives one pause, I think, is the realization that there are some who are so ashamed of these demographic realities that they are willing to tolerate such behavior rather than acknowledge and repudiate it.

Amongst the most affected demographics, I suspect there's also a measure of fear involved with respect to speaking out more forcefully against such sociopathic cultural forces.

I believe we're seeing it in the Zimmerman case at this very moment.

No doubt the Muslim community experiences something similar.

Americans of English descent are less likely to commit murder than English in England.

I'm skeptical of that. Do the English figures account for race? Blacks commit a disproportionate share of violent crimes there as well:

_________________________________________________________________

Violent inner-city crime, the figures, and a question of race

26 Jun 2010

The data provide a breakdown of the ethnicity of the 18,091 men and boys who police took action against for a range of violent and sexual offences in London in 2009-10.

They show that among those proceeded against for street crimes, 54 per cent were black; for robbery, 59 per cent; and for gun crimes, 67 per cent. Street crimes include muggings, assault with intent to rob and snatching property.

Just over 12 per cent of London’s 7.5 million population is black, including those of mixed black and white parentage, while 69 per cent is white, according to the Office for National Statistics.

Well Mr White, was her statement factually incorrect?

Elon White is a racist. If he’d had bothered to take 15 seconds to check, he would know that Ann has already written that crimes committed by blacks and whites is the same once you account for the children of single moms.

I'm skeptical of that. Source?

You can always tell when a liberal has no response to an argument--they just start screaming total non-sequiturs in an increasingly louder and more hysterical voice.

We ARE silenced by it- just look at the gop in congress- everytime a leftie fakes outrage, the gop tuck tail and cower behind the nearest upright structure

I don’t believe most repubs (as feckless as they are) have experienced an “upright structure” in a long while...if you catch my drift.

So...when every other word out of the mouth of black “entertainers” is the same word that Paula Deen said, you must object equally strenuously, and insult them as eloquently as you do Southern white women. I just missed your posts on the subject.

I think I can summarize Elon White's statements as follows:

"Unless you want to disarm people who are not killing blacks, you're a racist!"

actually, the CDC statistics say that too...it’s just not PC to mention it.

and of course, the murder rate in Belgium doesn’t include the euthanasia of the elderly or babies.

blacks in welfare HUD ghettos commit most of the crimes

but illegals also contribute a lot: So the senate's solution let in 6 billion more poor 3rd world criminals with the Amnesty bill (or at least 100 million more)

Oh please. Are you a troll, or just that young and naive?

What's happening to her now is FAR more outrageous than some utterance she probably shouldn't have said at a time when the rules about that were far more nebulous.

I would bet my left juevo that we have cloaked black creepers here ....and maybe others of negligible minority qualifications

Who post here particularly on threads villifying southerners

And race baiting in general

Who also contribute to blogs like The Root

They post just to stir the pot

I have noticed some of the WIDEAWAKES EXODUS bunch who have crawled back

Like to use the word OFFENDED and call folks bigot and anti Semite and racist

Makes them feel superior and compensates for endemic lack of experience in minority environs

Ranch

I been dealing with blacks like that since the 80s

Most whites here from up north just don’t want to hear it

Doesn’t fit the template

Black culture was better when whites had spine

Sad fact

I never figured it

Don’t be afraid....the truth is just the truth
