Don’t Ignore Race In Christopher Lane’s Murder
Time Ideas ^ | August 22, 2013 | John McWhorter

Posted on 08/22/2013 6:48:26 AM PDT by Biggirl

Australian Christopher Lane was killed on Monday in Oklahoma by three teens, one of whom has said they were just “bored.” The right is complaining that the media is making nothing of the fact that two of the teens were black whereas Lane was white, as opposed to the massive alarm sounded in cases such as white (or white-ish) George Zimmerman killing black Trayvon Martin.

You will never persuade most whites that race is a factor in any interracial killing.

Do you think most whites are that stupid? Or are they being politically correct to avoid being called a racist?

What about interracial crime, white-on-black attacks and the reverse?

"After researching the FBI numbers for "Suicide of a Superpower," this writer concluded: "An analysis of 'single offender victimization figures' from the FBI for 2007 finds blacks committed 433,934 crimes against whites, eight times the 55,685 whites committed against blacks. Interracial rape is almost exclusively black on white -- with 14,000 assaults on white women by African Americans in 2007. Not one case of a white sexual assault on a black female was found in the FBI study."

Though blacks are outnumbered 5-to-1 in the population by whites, they commit eight times as many crimes against whites as the reverse. By those 2007 numbers, a black male was 40 times as likely to assault a white person as the reverse.

Also where the killing had taken place, in OK, it is considered the most conservative state in the USA so this will be an open and shut case.

That is the argument from silence. If people do not tell you what they really think then one never really knows. America elected the clown currently in the White House.

Well if race is acknowledged here then it will have to be acknowledge in many other black on whites crimes and we can’t have that. It doesn’t fit with the evil white man scenario nor the non-whites ‘can’t be racist’ BS.

It doesn’t really matter-the head cop in this town is dancing the fandango every time someone brings up the possibilty that these thugs, like most other black thugs, are out and out racists!

Intelligence is not necessarily the criteria. Whites are heavily propagandized by a media that knows what it is doing. They know their craft. The left has been in control of the media since the mid 1930’s. Media means radio, TV, movies, books, magazines, the internet and the education establishment. They win we lose! the statement attributable to Goebbels was correct when he invented the idea “take a lie, make it big enough, and repeat it often enough and people will believe it.”

My wife commented that the pictures of the killers would not have been shown all over the news, if one wasn’t white.

He is not white. That photo is the only one of him I have seen that makes him look white. Things that make you go hmmmm...........

No the facts as YOU report them are based upon people being PC thus not saying what they really believe. PC is refusing to say what one really believes thus the person hearing the PC remarks will never know what the PC speaker really believes.
