Quite possibly the most racist article you will ever read
Allen West ^ | December 29, 2014 | Col Allen West

Posted on 12/29/2014 3:23:26 PM PST by Islander7

Every now and then you come across an article that folks just need to read. This one written by Michael Smith entitled, “Confessions of a Public Defender” and originally posted at American Renaissance on May 9, 2014 is one of those articles.

It is a profound and deeply disturbing piece, which, as we end 2014, we all need to comprehend as we move towards the 50th anniversary of the Great Society initiatives of President Lyndon Baines Johnson.

Smith articulates that which ails the black community — the real discussion we should be having on race, not that of victimhood and the further expansion of the welfare nanny-state.

He begins by saying, “I am a public defender in a large southern metropolitan area. Fewer than ten percent of the people in the area I serve are black but over 90 per cent of my clients are black. The remaining ten percent are mainly Hispanics but there are a few whites.”

“I have no explanation for why this is, but crime has racial patterns. Hispanics usually commit two kinds of crime: sexual assault on children and driving under the influence. Blacks commit many violent crimes but very few sex crimes. The handful of whites I see commit all kinds of crimes. In my many years as a public defender I have represented only three Asians, and one was half black.”

He presents his observations based on his personal experience with black defendants, and his words will no doubt inflame many:

My experience has also taught me that blacks are different by almost any measure to all other people. They cannot reason as well. They cannot communicate as well. They cannot control their impulses as well. They are a threat to all who cross their paths, black and non-black alike.

It will take you only 5 minutes to read this article — and I would bet you’ll read it again. Then ask yourself, is this something you hear Al Sharpton addressing? Or President Obama, Eric Holder, Jeh Johnson or Jesse Jackson?

I’m quite sure the progressive socialist left will criticize me for sharing this article – that’s just who they are – they hate the truth. But if there is a war to be fought, it is for the soul of the inner city and the black community. The facts and observations in this are not shocking to me. They are quite well known, but the manner in which the writer so eloquently presents them is quite commendable.

We cannot begin to “have a conversation about race” until we are willing to honestly address the facts.

As Smith says at the end, “I do know that it is wrong to deceive the public. Whatever solutions we seek should be based on the truth rather than what we would prefer was the truth.”

Some years ago Chris Rock did a concert tour called “Bring The Pain”.In one of the appearances during that tour he spent time discussing “black people vs niggaz” (it's easily found on youtube).In that 10 minute riff he said basically what this lawyer is saying except he used language that was *much* more “colorful”.

FTA: “Hispanics usually commit two kinds of crime: sexual assault on children and driving under the influence.”

That is actually one of their defense arguments: “It’s our culture.”

I know from handling 42 USC 1983 cases that Hispanics charged with sexual assault of minors, who turn around and file civil rights claims against LAWE (law enforcement agencies), routinely say that, and they are dead serious.

West posted it but someone else wrote it at American Renaissance, a white power sort of group.

You can’t choose your race but you can choose your culture. Ir you choose to be a barbarian you shouldn’t expect civilized people to tolerate your behavior.

I'd say that while Smith's point of view was based on the criminal element of black culture,

Whatever lets you sleep at night. Wish I had led your sheltered life.

From the referenced article:"I believe that those of us who are able to produce abundance have a moral duty to provide basic food, shelter, and medical care for those who cannot care for themselves." As a conservative, so do I, except that I "think" this, rather than "believe" it.

Again, from the article: "I believe we have this duty even to those who can care for themselves but don’t." As a conservative, I do not agree. If you are capable of working, and able to do so, then you get nothing but disdain from me, if you do not work, and if you live with the expectation that others should provide for you.

So true! So much of what is wrong in society is due to the poor choices people make.

If you put this article next to the well-known "What It's Like to Teach Black Children" you can see some very definite parallels. And yet we all know blacks who are nothing like this (I don't say African-American because I also know a few actual Africans, and again: not like this.)

But I know he's telling the truth about inner-city blacks because I've worked with them too, and yes, this corresponds with what I've seen among the lower classes.

All I can figure is that the smart ones get out and those who are left behind are breeding (and in-breeding) until we have a group whose average IQ seems to be about 65.

Excellent read. Two things are things I have always noticed. Hair trigger tempers and impulse control.

But remember, he’s not just dealing with black criminals. He’s dealing with white and Hispanic criminals as well. He’s saying that white and Hispanic criminals don’t act like this. And as for Asian criminals... he’s never met any except 2. This is clearly cultural.

This is ridiculously incorrect.

It will take you only 5 minutes to read this article — and I would bet you’ll read it again...

Actually it took me about twice that long to read it, and no, once is enough since my reading comprehension is just fine.

Indeed. It makes the other 5-10% look bad. .
