Black Crime in Baltimore High -- but Should be Higher
American Thinker ^ | 9/16/2014

Posted on 09/16/2014 3:31:31 PM PDT by Altura Ct.

Crime in Baltimore is dropping like a pile of hot rocks. And Elliott Einbinder knows the reason why: It is hard to get arrested there.

Einbinder is a Jewish dentist who was attacked last week on his way to afternoon prayers near his office -- all in front of witnesses willing to tell police what they saw. Let’s pick up the story from Baltimore Jewish Life:

“One 24-year-old African American female followed him and sucker punched him on the side of his head, swelling his lip and breaking his glasses. She continued to throw punches as Dr. Einbinder tried to swat her away.”

"I thought this was a 15-year old boy. She was half my size and just didn't appear to be a female. I kept asking her why she was doing this to me; I said, 'I didn't anything to you'! She spat on me and according to one witness, she said, "C'mon, fight me Jew.”

“The attacker originally told police that the doctor began the altercation but when witnesses contradicted her story she admitted to the police that she was "just having a bad day."

“He is also upset at the way the laws are written in that the officers on the scene were unable to arrest her even with the tens of witnesses to this attack on hand. Apparently an attack of this sort is considered a 2nd Degree Assault and unless witnessed by a Police Officer, and/or unless any type of weapon is used an arrest cannot be made.”

More than 20 witnesses. A crime scene confession. A shaken victim, willing to press charges. And what happened?

Nothing.

...They may have stopped arresting people, but crime just keeps on chugging along. Locals know the truth: Baltimore is a dangerous place for racial violence and the people who run the town -- and their mouthpieces at the local paper -- could not care less.

Over the Memorial Day weekend, 50 to 100 black people were fighting, destroying property and creating havoc at a local public swimming pool. You know, the kind they open so kids don’t do things like that.

They were asked to leave. They went straight to a nearby city-owned bicycle concession and stole 40 bikes after roughing up the people who were supposed to be guarding them.

No one was arrested. Nor did anyone at the local papers hear much about anything as 50 to 100 black people, stolen bikes in tow, rampaged through a few more neighborhoods as they returned to their lair.

That same holiday weekend, 200 black people were fighting, destroying property and creating havoc downtown. Near the Inner Harbor, again. This time they arrested two people. When some readers observed that crime and violence in Baltimore was a black thing, others lashed out, demanding they stop “demonizing black people.”

If that’s what the victim and witnesses were told, then they were absolutely 100% lied to, and I hope they pursue this further, not that it will get them anywhere, but at least it will draw some attention to this nonsense.

The end result of this in any American city where blacks take control of the city gov. and the police dept. may be far worse lawlessness. And the gradual displacement of white citizens who do not live in a lawless city. Of course, white libs abet the black libs in ignoring the law. How many more American cities will end up like Detritus?

"He is also upset at the way the laws are written in that the officers on the scene were unable to arrest her even with the tens of witnesses to this attack on hand."

Just to point out the difference between this violent witnessed hate crime and domestic violence - in a domestic violence situation the officer does not need to witness anything and there doesn't need to be any evidence. Just the allegation is sufficient to arrest someone for a FELONY and serve them with a TRO on the spot.

This exact type of scenario kept running through my head the past several days as the incessant bellowing of "a man can never hit a woman" went on ad nauseum in discussions about the Ray Lewis case.

A man can never hit a woman? Would it have been it permissible for the dentist here to punch his female attacker?

Correction: a man should rarely hit a woman. But if it's clearly a case of self-defense from an attacking woman, yep, a man can hit her, hard and more than once. All the self-righteous bellowing of the past few days does not eliminate anyone's right to real self-defense.

"Black crime?"

Apparently an attack of this sort is considered a 2nd Degree Assault and unless witnessed by a Police Officer, and/or unless any type of weapon is used an arrest cannot be made.”

And that law only applies to black people? Really?

In this case the dentist could be clearly forgiven as he couldn’t even be sure that it was a woman that was attacking him.

A lot of the big employers in downtown Batimore are talking about leaving because of the danger to their employees, even during the day. One employer, a big financial firm, said that they had trouble hiring people, even for very good salaries, because people were afraid to work there.

And as an added bonus, the dems who run the city, and dems ALWAYS run these cities, get to tell everyone that “crime is down” and “the neighborhoods have never been more safe.” Then when someone who has had enough fights back THEY are the bad guy, because, well, this sort of thing “never happens here” so the person who subdued the black guy must be a “racist” and case closed.

Correction: The recent ex-Raven in the domestic violence case is Ray Rice. Ray Lewis is the Ravens Hall of Famer who was falsely accused of murder in Atlanta several years ago.

” as the incessant bellowing of “a man can never hit a woman” went on ad nauseum in discussions about the Ray Lewis case.”

Hyperbole, derived from a Greek word meaning “over-casting” is a figure of speech, which involves an exaggeration of ideas for the sake of emphasis. It is a device that we employ in our day-to-day speech. For instance, when you meet a friend after a long time, you say, “Ages have passed since I last saw you”. You may not have met him for three or four hours or a day, but the use of the word “ages” exaggerates this statement to add emphasis to your wait. Therefore, a hyperbole is an unreal exaggeration to emphasize the real situation. Some other common Hyperbole examples are given below.

Yep, thanks for the correction. But Ray Lewis is one of the ones who was going on and on about the Ray Rice situation, along with many others.

Even though the story did need to be discussed, I don't recall any story being discussed so much beyond what it merited, with every Tom, Dick and Harry, and Mary and Jane, etc., jumping in to try and score their PC points along with everyone else.

“All the self-righteous bellowing of the past few days does not eliminate anyone’s right to real self-defense.”

Self-defense is defined as the right to prevent suffering force or violence through the use of a sufficient level of counteracting force or violence. - See more at: http://criminal.findlaw.com/criminal-law-basics/self-defense-overview.html#sthash.x2ocadn2.dpuf

‘real self-defense’

Proportional Response

The use of self-defense must also match the level of the threat in question. In other words, a person can only employ as much force as required to remove the threat. If the threat involves deadly force, the person defending themselves can use deadly force to counteract the threat. If, however, the threat involves only minor force and the person claiming self-defense uses force that could cause grievous bodily harm or death, the claim of self-defense will fail.

So, a negress who is having a bad day can attack someone, and nothing will happen, because her excuse is that she is having a bad day.

Anybody believe that in a reverse situation, a white man attacking a black girl, would result in no legal action???

This is Nancy Pelosi’s home town.

Her family were big political libs there, if they aren’t still.

She’s not really from CA. Just one of many shove spread the disease here.

Does this mean that if a woman assaulted a man in a way that could permanently maim him such as this, then the man can reply in kind with a defense that could main her?
