I am so sorry. I've always enjoyed your comments and I completely misunderstood you tonight.
It's late and I've very tired.

Part of it, though, is the dog-bites man syndrome (dog bites man is not news, man bites dog is news). White attacks on blacks are qite rare these days.......

Boulder, Colorado. After discovering that one of their members had never had sex with a white woman, an Asian gang went looking for one. When they found a white University of Colorado student, the six men gang raped her in their minivan for two hours. At their trial, “Detectives described the woman’s night of terror, including repeated threats to kill her.

Dear G-d in Heaven, bring the fire and cleanse this Earth of the human race. We are a disease that has rightfully and willfully provoked your wrath. Take the whole thing back and start again.

The fact that this kind of hatred and brutality against our own is allowed to continue generation after generation after generation, indicts us all. Each and every one of us.

Equal punishment, above all else once defined us as a nation.

Now we have ethnicity fueled by socialism fanned by retribution.

Oh joy.

Moslems being slaughtered by Christians during the Crusades.

Respectfully, I do believe that Muslims were murdering the Christains in Europe until the Battle of Tours, France, in 735 AD. The invasion of Europe by the Muslims, precludes the Crusades by about 250 years. Not that anyone's counting, or not that it really matters what chronology or context do historical events occur.

All of the things you listed has aspects that have been supressed for many years. I know that some people have this kneejerk reaction when people talk about lynching of blacks in the south. But hey that was suppressed in the media till Billie Holiday started singing about it.

I hate this misconception: the Central Park Jogger rapists were not "wilding"; they were doing the Wild Thing! The song has been a hit for a number of artists and it was heavily sampled. This is the cultural touchpoint that the young animals were observing, not wilding.

You bring up events from 50+ years ago to compare to events of today. Disingenuous at best. And the numbers been made up several times over in the last 40 years by black-on-white murders.

We've fixed a problem of yesteryear. Let's admit and fix the problem of today, rather than ignore it and somehow attempt to sweep it under the rug with references to an old wrong.

Glad to see it all "makes you sick".

The Alexandria VA case happened locally ~ in fact it happened about 3 blocks from my office.

The killer is mentally ill. The events didn't quite happen according to the sequence the writer laid out, nor is this area overrun with mind-numbed, knee-jerk, robot-like Liberals who bow in supplication to Teddy Kennedy every morning.

The killer wasn't prosecuted for a "hate crime" since he was, in fact, put on trial for murder (where he would be subject to the death penalty, and in a trial in an area which is famous for it's "hanging juries" and "hanging judges"). Which is probably why the DOJ didn't prosecute him. Besides which we don't want to have the concept of "hate crime" imposed on us ~ it's a foreign idea that can all too readily be used to suppress unpopular political ideas.

As far as having Jesse Jackson, Kweisi Mfume or Al Sharpton around my neighborhood, they wouldn't be particularly welcome.

As it turned out an African-American cab driver provided information concerning the killer, and that information led to his prosecution.

In the end the killer was forcibly medicated so that he could stand trial. (I told you the courts around here are tough). Noteworthy is the fact that the killer was already locked up on a different charge, and his DNA gave him away.

This story is being misused to pursue a racial agenda ~ sounds more like one of the killer's tirades than a cry for justice.

Actually one of the crusades was organized by Rome to kill or forcibly convert the Byzantine Christians of the Middle East and Greece( Constantinople) and take their land, riches, Church items like the Altar made of precious stones and Gold, etc.

The Allied destruction of the city of Dresden during WWII through the deliberation* creation of a firestorm.

*"deliberate" is not very likely. If the Brits knew how to turn all of Germany into a Bonn fire, they would have done more cities than just Dresden and Cologne.

Quite frankly, I do not think the above merits mention in your list if you do not mention the bombing of London in 1940, the "Blitz".

If the damn "Krauts" couldn't take night strategic bombing, why did they start with daylight strategic bombing and then switch to night ops when the RAF kept the bombers at bay during the day?

You may as well mention Hiroshima/Nagasaki, and omit Pearl Harbor, Nanking, and Bataan.

Black conservative ping

If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)

Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.

This is very good. There is no URL. Did you write this? It's very good, and informative and footnoted too. Definately A+ work. You should try and get it published. It could be easily expanded, and would make an excellent magazine article. Maybe "Reason" would take it. I think the "Reader's Digest" might have in days gone by, not so sure about now. I'm fairly sure that 99.9% of Americans, of all races, find 100% of these crimes unacceptable and worthy of severe punishment.

This one was the 4th crusade and had little to do with muslims at all. The turks took over Constaninople in the 15th(1456) century and most of the Balkans in the 14th(1389).

Alexandria has hanging juries and hanging judges? I guess I just wasn't paying attention.

I think ALL crime is hateful... no matter what color of people are involved.

I think too much is made over the color of criminals. To me they are just BAD!

In 1963 I was active in the civil rights movement and at that time it was impossible to get a southern newspaper to honestly cover the movement. It seems many papers missed a great American historical movement and now they're trying to make up for it. It's white guilt, extreme liberal wannabeeism, and jumpin' on a bandwagon that's been 40 years gone. You are too kind to the media:

Part of it, though, is the dog-bites man syndrome (dog bites man is not news, man bites dog is news). White attacks on blacks are qite rare these days.......
