It’s been six months since we brought you the uncomfortable story of Black Day Care workers who created their own version of “Gladiator Training” for the three-year-olds in their care who were forced to fight eachother and videotaped.  In that real-life story we outlined the culture of thuggery, and violence, and how it was not only supported by -but advocated by- black women in the community.

The three women seen here: 19-year-old Tiana Harris, 21-year-old Estefania Myers and 47-year-old Lisa Parker were arrested last year and charged with assault, endangering the welfare of a child, reckless endangering and conspiracy.  The story is HERE.

Well what do you think happens when a generation of those who survive “fight school” reach the streets?    It is interesting how Jesse Jackson, Barack Obama and Eric Holder disengenuously avoid any conversation about the violence so easily witnessed within the black community.   Here is the latest example:  (more…)

“The sensationalized, fact-deficient coverage of this case has achieved the
desired results. The networks got their ratings. The politicians got their
talking points. And if it means innocent people get caught in the middle of the

damage. Congratulations, geniuses. Job well done.” Jim Treacher, The DC Trawler

Much has been made about the death of a 15-year-old honor student, Hadiya Pendleton.

She died after being shot in a park near the Chicago home of President Barack Obama on Jan. 29, just days after she performed during his inauguration festivities in Washington. Her death was among dozens of homicides in Chicago last month, but her background and ties to Obama thrust her death into the national headlines and helped put Chicago at the center of a national debate over gun control.  (story)

Yesterday her killers were arrested. (more…)

DETROIT – Two teenagers were shot when they tried to rob men working on a public lighting pole on Detroit’s west side Thursday night, according to Detroit police.

The men, both 59, were in an alley between Cloverlawn and Northlawn, north of Schoolcraft, about 9 p.m. when the teens, who are 16-and 17-year-old brothers, pulled out a weapon and said they were robbing the men.

One of the men, who has a license to carry a concealed pistol, shot both teens, police said. (more…)

Today, Saturday February 9th, in Miami a “Peace Rally” is being held to memorialize Trayvon Martin.

A crowd in the “hundreds” was in attendance.  Notably absent was the previous diversity of audience and rally attendees.  (pictures here)

Ironically the Miami Dade Police Dept. upon advice from the DOJ-CRS, has activated additional resources in the event of civil unrest.

The Department of Homeland Security joined with M-DPD and coordinated crowd security and civil controls.   In addition law enforcement placed additional rapid response teams “on call”, and pre-staged riot response teams in case the *Peace Rally* attendees cannot control their emotion.
