The newspapers and TV news outlets in the area have carried coverage of this, but in conversations with friends in Seattle and Los Angeles, I discovered that they had never heard of it.
What the journalists fear is a hardening of white opinion on the American race question. Liberal white Southerners in particular remember the history of this region and what can happen if white folks get riled up enough.
Had this incident happened as recently at the 1920s, the fathers of the town would have put on their sheets and pointy hats and marched down to the county jail by torchlight. The police chief would have been a member of the Klan, or he would have known not to challenge the crowd's anger. Either way, the two miscreants would have been dragged down to an old live oak or bridge, and they would have been lynched. Once dead, their bodies would have been set on fire.
With that job finished, the fathers of the town would have surrounded the Brunswick ghetto, sealed it off and burned it to the ground in an action reminiscent of Tulsa (1921) or Rosewood, Florida (1923). The inhabitants would have been killed or scattered to the winds.
Today the police chief would mobilize a collection of state and federal authorities who would prevent anything like this from happening, to include the use of troops. Were it to happen, it would set off racial insurrections in most of the country's major cities.
There is ancestral memory at work here, which is why the Mainstream Media is trying to tamp this one down.
I am about 95% in agreement with you. But I am also of the opinion that most of the mainstream media people just can't see why this is a big deal. They just don't believe that blacks committing crimes against whites is real crime.
And then the New Black Panther Party arrives to stoke the embers.
Decent people need to start getting riled up.
Apparently there are also sone local government officials who have been detained and questioned in connection with covering up this case and witness intimidation so the whole “community” seems to be some sort of a criminal enterprise.
Don’t care if I get banned, I’m saying it-too bad something similar won’t happen in this instance. There is little more evil than putting a gun in the face of a 13 month old infant and pulling the trigger. I don’t care what the age is of the sub-human demon that did it, it’s an evil bestial demon spawn sub-human from hell. If I could I’d let the spawn’s blood myself as slowly as possible.
Yes, a precious child is dead: murdered. But it would still be just as sinful today to destroy any black innocents along with the evil minded.
Romans 12:17 Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 18 If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.
