Last night in response to a police shooting Ferguson Missouri erupted in riots.  During one of the looting episodes the following picture was taken.

Note what is in the waistband of this unhappy protestor.  Who apparently wonders why the police would be twitchy during an arrest.   #Irony

Missouri Police Shooting – Grandmother says “he was a good kid.  

Media reports: “unarmed teen”, “black child”, “about to start college”, “Michael Skolnik”, “NAACP”, “calls for Federal DOJ intervention”, “Eric Holder”, “murder”, “innocent”, “community relations service”, etc ….
(CNN) — A friend and witnesses say Missouri teen Michael Brown was unarmed and had his hands in the air when a Ferguson police officer shot and killed him, but that account is in dispute.

“The genesis of this was a physical confrontation,” Jon Belmar, chief of the St. Louis County Police Department, said at a Sunday news conference.

The officer tried to leave his vehicle just before the shooting on Saturday afternoon, but Brown pushed him back into the car, “where he physically assaulted the police officer” and struggled over the officer’s weapon, Belmar said.

A shot was fired inside the police car, and Brown was eventually shot about 35 feet away from the vehicle, Belmar said, adding few details because he didn’t want to “prejudice” the case. (more…)

For over three years we have been tracking this new federal protocol of qualifying school punishment for misbehavior around the race of the offender.  This latest example comes from a suburb of Atlanta Georgia – STORY LINK.   

Can you spot the flaw in the racial grievance logic ?

Last night in Washington DC the mandatory Mooch Obama school nutrition standard was set aside as our rulers dined on something a little more, well, exotic:

But don’t worry, in the event the unwashed peasants had any difficulty understanding how the .0000001% live on taxpayer financed opulence, head grifter in charge -Valerie Jarrett- was there to broadcast descriptions of the magnificence to the lesser class:

And before anybody says anything like “they’re tone deaf“, let me assure you the Alinsky clan is NOT.   This crew know exactly what they are broadcasting – and that knot you feel is specifically and antagonistically intended to “burn”.  Their visceral response to your outward anxiety is laughter.

WASHINGTON DC – Only two years ago, House Republicans voted to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. Recently, Senate Republicans have trashed the former head of his civil rights division, Thomas Perez, and blocked his current choice to run the division, Debo Adegbile. […]
Holder remains indifferent to conservative protests that he is an ‘activist’ looking for trouble by digging into what he calls “policies [with] disproportionate impact on communities of color.”
“If you want to call me an activist attorney general, I will proudly accept that label,” he said. “Any attorney general who is not an activist is not doing his or her job. The responsibility of the attorney general is to change things [and] bring us closer to the ideals expressed in our founding documents.”
Later, he defiantly added that critics who say his department includes an “activist civil rights division and this is an activist attorney general — I’d say I agree with you 1000 percent and [I am] proud of it.”  (read more)

On March 20th 2012 ABC News, Matt Gutman and Benjamin Crump introduced America to a very specific person.   They called her “Dee Dee”.

Dee Dee was said to be a 16-year-old girlfriend, “puppy love girlfriend”, “minor child”, of a notorious headline story surrounding the shooting of Trayvon Martin.
Dee Dee a distraught “girlfriend” who was “on the phone” with Trayvon during his encounter with George Zimmerman.  A girlfriend since “kindergarten” who was so emotionally distraught at the shooting she had to be hospitalized during the weekend of the funeral and unable to attend services.
Only there was a slight problem.
There was no “Dee Dee”.  She was a complete fabrication – she did not exist.  She, as she was described to exist, was a lie.
Everything said about her was totally constructed to sell a narrative and advance a false proposition.   The character was constructed by Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump, and journalist Matt Gutman (ABC) sold her story to the world.
Everyone believed it, everyone.
The truth was only discovered, but brutally ignored a year and a half later, during the trial.
Dee Dee was actually Rachel Jeantel.   She wasn’t 16, she was 18.  She wasn’t a minor, nor was she a “girlfriend since kindergarten”.  Trayvon met Rachel on Feb 5th 2012, at her birthday party, and had only known her for 3 weeks.   Rachel was never at a hospital, and did not attend the funeral -not because she was sick- but because she barely knew Trayvon.
The Persona of “Dee Dee”, was a total fraud known not only to the Martin Family -who continued the fraud- but also known to the State Prosecutors who were fixated on taking a transparently innocent man to trial.   The attorney’s, the prosecutors, and the State of Florida knew it was all a lie.   ABC News also knew it was a lie, but they said nothing.
Eventually the motive for her construction became obvious.   The character of “DeeDee” became the entire premise behind which George Zimmerman was arrested less than three weeks later.   This, despite the fact that local law enforcement was not allowed to speak to, see, interview or even know the identity of this “ear witness” girlfriend.  Her construct was then used by various media and grievance advocates to support their contentions.
Again, just to emphasize, Dee Dee was a fictional character.  She did not exist.   At all.
Yet somehow, because of the media reporting, millions upon millions of interested people bought the entire story and framed their opinions around the portrayal. (more…)

DETROIT (WWJ) – After a class action lawsuit filed against the city of Detroit, the NAACP Legal Defense Fund says that recent water shutoffs to Detroit residents were racially motivated.

Veronica Joice with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund says, “That (the shutoffs are) being done in a discriminatory fashion; and they should at least take a look at whether there’s a better way to do this that doesn’t affect the most vulnerable citizens — the majority of whom are African American here in Detroit.”
Attorney Alice Jennings, who filed the lawsuit on behalf of Detroit residents, said it’s a known fact that there are corporations that owe hundreds of thousands of dollars to the city of Detroit Water and Sewerage Department.
“These companies are basically Caucasian companies,” Jennings said. “The folks who are being cut off are almost one hundred percent African American.”

Redistribution of intellectual effort.   No, this is not a joke – unfortunately.  If you earn an “A” and you are white or Asian, you need to have your grade lowered so a minority grade can be raised if lower.

WISCONSIN – A new policy at the University of Wisconsin – Madison states that good grades should be distributed equally among students of different races.


The policy, named the “Framework for Diversity and Inclusive Excellence,” calls for “proportional participation of historically underrepresented racial-ethnic groups at all levels of an institution, including high status special programs, high-demand majors, and in the distribution of grades.”
UW – Madison professor W. Lee Hansen wrote about his concerns with the policy in a piece published Wednesday. (more…)

“our people”?   Hmmm, where have we heard that before?  Oh yes, that’s right:

….in the mind of a hyphenated progressive, there’s always an adjective that precedes the word “American”.  I digress….

(Via Breitbart) On Saturday, Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL) said President Barack Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program was a “down payment” to the Hispanic community before more grants of amnesty for illegal immigrants.
Speaking at the National Council of La Raza conference in Los Angeles, Gutierrez said that Obama assured him during a White House meeting with Members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus last week that he would be as “generous and broad” as he can to “stop the deportation of our people each and every day.”
“You gave us a down payment when you freed 600,000 DREAMers from deportation,” Gutierrez said. “Now it is time for the president in the United States… [to] free the Mom and Dads of the DREAMers. And to go further. Be broad and expansive and generous.”  (read more)

WHITE HOUSE – Top White House officials had an hour-long meeting with a group of scholars and activists calling for the inclusion of girls of color in President Obama’s signature racial justice program known as My Brother’s Keeper.
The meeting included the Rev. Al Sharpton, who has championed MBK, and top activists and academics who signed a letter criticizing the initiative for focusing on boys and young men of color without a corollary for girls of color.
Sharpton, reached via e-mail, described the meeting as “constructive.”
A White House official sent She The People this readout from the meeting: (more…)
