Jesse Jackson Criticizes Fox News for 'White Panel' on Race During Ben Carson Debate
Breitbart TV ^ | 24 Aug 2014, 8:35 AM PDT | Pam Key

On this weekend's broadcast of "Fox News Sunday," Rev. Jesse Jackson and Dr. Ben Carson debated the civil unrest after Officer Darren Wilson fatally shot Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO.

Jackson became defensive when host Chris Wallace's first question was why he had called the shooting a "state execution," answering, "We need to have a sense of justice. All we do know about Michael Brown is really he was shot unarmed six times."

“It seems to me that the police act as judge, jury, and executioner, and even on the worse scenario, if [Brown] hit [Wilson] on the face, does that require at a distance? Does that mean you shoot him six times? Four times at point-blank range? I don’t think so," Jackson added.

Wallace asked Jackson about the the statistics Juan Williams pointed to on the panel earlier in the show, saying, "among black males between ages 15 and 34, and 91 percent of black murder victims are not killed by the police but are killed by other blacks."

Jackson shot back, "Well, first of all, I wish Dr. Carson and I were on that white panel you just had because it does have a race dimension. We come by it from experience differently than your previous guests, number one. Number two, it seems to me that when blacks kill whites, which is rare, it's swift justice. When it's white on black, it's slower. When it's black and black, it's drugs in, jobs out. Racial disparity and alienation and distrust are very combustible formulas, factors." . .

Jesse Jackson is no different from Andrew Jackson. Both view skin color as the sole qualification for any decision in life.

"he was shot unarmed six times."

Heck of a phrase. Just had to squeeze that word into the sentence, huh?

Yeah, white isn’t a race, we don’t have an opinion.

Skin color über alles. Enough. Focus on character.

You are not unarmed if your fist is capable of fracturing an eyesocket.

And wasn’t Juan Williams on that panel?

It’s a shame Dr. Carson had to share the same program with that race-baiter. He’s too much a gentleman to just walk out but that’s what would have been appropriate.

Since all of the Brown supporters seem to focus on the fact that he was shot six times, apparently it would have been preferable if Brown had been killed with the first bullet ? But maybe Wilson was just following the Wolf Blitzer approach of “shooting to wound” and as a result he needed 6 shots or maybe just maybe his vision was so impaired from the orbital socket fracture that he kept missing the center of his target

What does the color of ones skin and past experience have to do with the KNOWN FACT that 91% of blacks are killed by blacks?!?!

This is just Jesse Jackass ignoring the question and trying to stir up some more race based shit - period!!

Andrew Jackson was a patriot and a war hero who lived in an era when racism was the norm. That’s very different than a race hustling extortionist.

Yeah, well, I wish our candidates had a conservative panel during presidential debates, but that's not going to happen anytime soon, either.

He was shot six times because that’s how many shots were required to stop him as he was charging the officer with intent to maim or kill (already demonstrated twice in prior 15 minutes). He should not have charged at all, but certainly should have stopped after being wounded 1... 2... 3... 4... 5, times, etc. The final shot to the head stopped him.

Perhaps someone should have questioned Jesse as to
how many executives of no color he has in his organization? Is it racially balanced?

This whole racial quota thing is ridiculous,
and un-American to boot.
