  • Two white kids, tourists even, were viciously murdered in Florida for no other appearnt reason than the color of their skin.

    Where's the outrage? Where's the nationalmedia? Where's Sharpton and Jackson? Any comments from Obama?

    No nothing, just two "white boys" in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    No "racism" or "hate crime here", just move along now.

    Just as always.

    The double-standard is outright nauseating.

    Overshot in Florida
    The no-go area of no-go areas
    By Colin Liddell Comments (23)Print ArticleComments

    So many beaches, so little time Here in Japan we have had a no-go area since the great earthquake of last year. Such areas are something of a rarity in these parts. This one is rather large stretching across a radius of 20 km. It is centred on the Fukushima nuclear reactor, which was badly damaged by the tsunami caused by the quake, and is meant to protect people from radioactive contamination. In the usual, slightly nannying way common in these parts, it has been marked with all the paraphernalia that one would associate with no-go areas: manned roadblocks, no-entry signs, flashing lights, occasional automated announcements, and a range of gentle fines.

    But while no-go zones are extremely uncommon in Japan, where walking about at night is perfectly safe, this is certainly not the case in America, where the trial for the murder of two British tourists shot in the Florida resort town of Sarasota has just ended in the conviction of Shawn Tyson, a Black 17-year-old youth.

    No doubt if Obama had a son, he would also look like Tyson.
    While Japan makes great efforts to mark its no-go zones, the same cannot be said for America. There it is regarded as something of a social faux pas to put up appropriate signage.

    Regarding the case, it seems that the murder victims, James Cooper and James Kouzaris, after an evening spent at a couple of downtown bars, the last of which closed at 2 am, decided to walk to a well-known 24-hour diner, located about one-and-half miles away, for an early hours breakfast. After failing to take the right turning, they continued on their way to what newspapers in their coded way described as a "ghetto," "run-down estate," and "public housing project." The pictures of the murder site, however, showed a pleasant enough row of tree-shaded bungalows, each with its own spacious yard, and a car, SUV, or pickup truck in every driveway.

    Certainly this is not the kind of obvious no-go area that innocent, liquored-up tourists could be expected to recognize, but no-go area it certainly was as quotes from the local police captain Paul Sutton to the press made clear. He admitted that detectives had ignored "lifestyle differences" between Britons and Americans and assumed the tourists would never have dreamed of trying to get around on foot. Sutton also talked about the men "losing their bearings" and "overshooting" the "correct turning." In other words, there are certain places it isn't safe to walk and no signs to let people know they have taken the wrong turning or wandered too far.

    Sutton wanted to make it sound as if what happened to the two men was some kind of accident; as if they had haphazardly walked off a cliff or gone scuba diving without the correct equipment. In a sense this is true. There is an almost impersonal quality and predictability about Whites wandering into America’s no-go zones at night without the requisite number of guns, mace, bullet-proof vests, and police back up.

    Cooper and Kouzaris were clearly targeted because they were White. One of the witnesses at the trial Jermaine Bane said he had a phone call from Tyson in which he heard him say: "Who are those crackers walking past the park?" When Tyson found out they had no money he decided to kill them for pleasure. The court heard that Tyson had boasted to a female friend, Latrece Washington, that one of the men had begged for his life but he shot him anyway.

    In the press that followed the killings, it was routinely referred to a "botched robbery." Remember that term for future reference, as it occurs every time Blacks rob Whites and then shoot the victims for a racial buzz. Other notions floated during the initial period of the investigation included the suggestion that Cooper and Kouzaris were trying to buy drugs, were the victims of a "honey-trap" operation, or were even "ghetto tourists."

    The cuмulative effect of all this speculation was to make the victims seem like they were the problem, not the killer. In the days that followed their murder, with Sarasota baking in the media spotlight, Cooper and Kouzaris were effectively presented as bar-crawling drunks with poor orienting skills. They were also depicted as womanizing dope fiends with a thrill-seeking death wish. The clear message was: "Don't worry, tourists, you have to be a really sick fuck to get blown away in Sarasota." Just the reassuring message the local holiday trade needed!

    While most American Whites, especially White Liberals, have mastered enough doublethink to successfully avoid America's honky-shooting no-go areas without being too overtly conscious of the racial dimension, it is unfair to expect this sort of advanced Orwellian thinking from foreign tourists whose picture of America has been shaped by a Hollywood where Morgan Freeman is God, Dennis Haysbert President, and all the crooks Whites (often with Southern, German, or English accents).

    On its website, Sarasota looks like a lovely place. Back at the time of the killing its beaches were advertised with the disturbingly elitist slogan "All beaches are not created equal." This has now been changed to "So many beaches so little time." Echoing these slogans we could also say that not all the neighbourhoods of Sarasota have been created equally safe—for obvious reasons—and that wandering into some of them will give you a lot less time on this planet.

    Given that Sarasota is a holiday destination that attracts naïve foreigners and then tries to get them drunk and high, it might be a good idea to fence off certain parts of the town with barbed wire and put up warning signs exactly as you would if there were dangerous cliffs or a stretch of water with a deadly undertow or sharks. As some of the tourists may not be fluent in English, these should also be very visual, with appropriate images of trigger-happy racist Black thugs.

    In Japan they try not to have any no-go areas, but when they do they at least make strenuous efforts to clearly delineate them. America by contrast is riddled with dangerous no-go areas, but instead of this being openly admitted and measures taken to keep out potential victims, any mention is suppressed. In America it seems that the most obvious no-go area is the subject of no-go areas itself.

  • hush crime: white 13-year-old boy set on fire by (non-whites) (Kansas City, Missouri)

    Police said the two suspects are male [but they don't identify the race! attacks on whites, literally murderous attacks on whites, matter less than 'racism,' which is mere wordplay, indeed a smear for whites invented by a communist Jєω] and have facial hair. Police said one was wearing a blue hat, blue jacket, and shoes with the number 23 on the side. The other wore a blue hat, a black jacket, and wore glasses.

    Melissa Coon said her son turned from the school's stadium onto Quincy Avenue and noticed two teenagers following him. She said the teens followed her son home and attacked him outside his front door.

    "And they rushed him on the porch as he tried to get the door open," she said. "(One of them) poured the gasoline, then flicked the Bic, and said, 'This is what you deserve. You get what you deserve, white boy'."

  • I was reminded of the comments of David Starkey.He certainly isn't on "our page" on other issues but correct in his analysis about England.When you had white liberals wearing "Looters are scuм" T-Shirts when doing the clear up after the riots, it showed that even these race mixing supporters knew something is wrong in 'Broken Britain'.Councils struggled to find black people willing to assist in the clean up. It's too simplistic to hold the view of anti- Catholic John Tyndall when he said all that came out of Africa is witch craft, voodoo and Aids.Each African Nation has a rich tradition and culture but these Africans belong in Africa and not Britain. Humane repatriation is vital. Them and their families. They are not English. They are English when it comes to the benefits and using the system.

    Britain will see more blood and fire before things get better.That is for certain.

    Quote
    David Starkey claims 'the whites have become black'
    Historian provokes storm of criticism after remarks during a televised discussion about the riots on BBC2's Newsnight

    The historian and broadcaster David Starkey has provoked a storm of criticism after claiming during a televised discussion about the riots that "the problem is that the whites have become black".

    In an appearance on BBC2's Newsnight, Starkey spoke of "a profound cultural change" and said he had been re-reading Enoch Powell's rivers of blood speech.

    "His prophesy was absolutely right in one sense. The Tiber did not foam with blood but flames lambent, they wrapped around Tottenham and wrapped around Clapham," he said.

    "But it wasn't inter-community violence. This is where he was absolutely wrong." Gesturing towards one of the other guests, Owen Jones, who wrote Chavs: the Demonisation of the Working Classes, Starkey said: "What has happened is that a substantial section of the chavs that you wrote about have become black."

    An outcry on Twitter began with the Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn asking the BBC: "Why was racist analysis of Starkey unchallenged? What exactly are you trying to prove?" A spokesman for Newsnight said: "I think that [presenter] Emily Maitlis very robustly challenged David Starkey.

    "The two guests [Jones and the writer and education adviser Dreda Say Mitchell] that we had also quite clearly took issue with his comments."

    Jones told the Guardian he believed Starkey's comments were "a career-ending moment". He said: "He tapped into racial prejudice at a time of national crisis. At other times, those comments would be inflammatory but they are downright dangerous in the current climate.

    "I fear that some people will now say that David Starkey is right, and you could already see some of them on Twitter. I am worried about a backlash from the right and he will give legitimacy to those views in the minds of some." On the programme, Starkey said: "The whites have become black. A particular sort of violent destructive, nihilistic gangster culture has become the fashion and black and white boys and girls operate in this language together.

    "This language which is wholly false, which is this Jamaican patois that has been intruded in England and that is why so many of us have this sense of literally of a foreign country."

    The historian and broadcaster, whose historical docuмentaries on Channel 4 about the Tudors established him as a household name, went on to name-check Tottenham's Labour MP: "Listen to David Lammy, an archetypal successful black man. If you turn the screen off so that you are listening to him on radio you would think he was white."

    He was challenged by Mitchell, who ridiculed his theories about the speech patterns of young people.

    "You keep talking David about black culture. Black communities are not homogenous. So there are black cultures. Lots of different black cultures. What we need to be doing is ... thinking about ourselves not as individual communities ... as one community. We need to stop talking about them and us."

  • I've followed several such stories, like the boy being set on fire. There is the pattern a poster above said, if it is white on black, it is described as a hate crime.

    If it's black on white it is a 'botched robbery' or the suspect is described as 'male' (with no race, this is always code for blacks).

    It is inherently racist, since the reportage suggests the writers think that if they report the race there will be a race riot.

    It's funny these media types insist you must separate a person's action from their race, then they *do not* do so when they refuse to report the race.

    It's all by design. A standard ploy of the likes of communists. They stir up subtle change by it,  and increase the chances of a revolution starting somewhere. Constantly at it like a propaganda machine.

    Just because man has created the technology to rapidly report on things all around the world, it doesn't mean we are obliged to spend our time and fill our heads with it all. Best to look at your local news, and you will have more say in your local area to influence solutions. Mankind has always produced a sufficient amount of nauseating things to be a concern to us on the local level.




    A mantra bleated out in Ireland is "we need these immigrant worker"? No we don't.It's like saying the National Health Service would collapse in England if the migrant nurses left. The migrant nurses should be repatriated.

    Mass-immigration is about cheap foreign labour and replacement of population.

    The clerics mainly novus ordo types who speak of immigrants "enriching our church" are traitors to the Nation. Goody Two-Shoes whilst the Nation suffers.Even the 'Catholic' schools in Ireland now are filling with immigrants. Ireland in ten years is going to be dire if patriots don't wake up.

    Many of these conciliar Bishops and clerics lament mass-emigration but ignore immigration. I know it's about the collection plate and the Catholic vote down the line but the Irish are entitled to their homeland and Nation.

    Of course they'll call it everything else but what it really is, a racially motivated crime.

    The rats in the media know this all too well and exploit (Or not) every chance they get because they are desperate to conceal the truth of what everybody already knows: Race exists. And is the basis for violent attacks by all the different ones all thrusted upon each other here in the land of "diversity" and "multiculturalism". The problem is, we all know who really is attacking who these days and a big part of that is because of the media itself and the spin doctors who distort and out right lie about the reality of the situation. The media, whether it admits to it or not has responsibility to be as unbiased and impartial to the best of their ability in order for the best possible accuracy in what their reporting. That is what professional journalism once was based and built upon. No longer.Now that communists-leftists and liberals/Jєωs have seized upon and dominated most of the main stream media outlets. They're not interested in the truth or accurate reporting at all, it's all politicized left wing propaganda and creating as much controversy  as possible in order to sell papers and acquire sponsors. It's really about money in the end, like everything else. Well sort of. They could make just as much if they were fair and accurate like they should be. But that goes against the program which is to be divisive and detrimental to a culture or a people.

    That's why you see some other cultures squash their media at times because they know just how much these damage these vermin can inflict upon their nations. Freedom of the press can be a dangerous thing.

  • We are never told of the black on white crime ratio, except in websites "deemed" racist.

    However, we are constantly reminded to be on the look out for anti-semitism.

    And for crime against blacks, many notable ones have proven to be hoaxes.

    As the Irish tax payer funds language support teachers in schools, I put a few questions to a school staff member. She was polite but indicated there is already a strain on resources. It's crazy. This was just one school. These immigrants will either go back home having received education at our expense or have chips on their shoulders feeling hard done by. Those who push the multi-culti line have alot to answer.

    It was revealing when they struggled to find blacks to assist the clean up after the riots in England. The 'looters are scuм' t shirts also highlight the liberal middle class are now awake to the multi racial fantasy world. You had a few white people rioting but it was blacks rioting.

  • White man and woman found burned to death in black section of Detroit.

    Not much being done or said by the Detroit PD or the MSM.

    No big deal, just two more white folk in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    What is it with blacks burning their white victims?

    Could we start calling this a white h0Ɩ0cαųst?

    http://www.myfoxdetroit.com/dpp/news/local/two-burned-bodies-discovered-on-detroit%27s-east-side-20

    DETROIT (WJBK) - DETROIT (WJBK) -- Two bodies were found at Proctor and Panama on Detroit's southwest side after 3:00 a.m. Monday. In an alley, a man who says he saw what led up to this and what came after, calling on us to tell the story. The smell of smoke making him wonder what was going on.

    "There was two black guys that got out of it, and they [were] here for about ten minutes. They left, went down, came back and then stopped again and got out the car. I don't know what they [were] doing," he told us.

    "I [didn't] even think [anything] of it. Two hours later, another car, that's when all the police and everybody came back."

    Investigators say the badly burned bodies are that of a white man and a white woman. We put the man that talked to us and didn't want to be identified in touch with the lead investigator in the case.

    We can tell you that investigators are trying to figure out exactly what happened to these two people. Were they bound? They found some kind of a cord laying on top of their burnt bodies.

    "With all the bodies being burned around, it's just kind of scary to know ... that kind of stuff is going on," said neighbor Michael Pompa
    .

    It may be some time before the bodies are identified. Neighbors are frightened knowing the killer or killers are still out there.

    "This is too close to home. I only live a few blocks from here and it's like scary to come out at night, even in the daytime really," one woman remarked.

    Detroit Police are only telling us that, at this point, it's going to be very hard to identify those bodies. The medical examiner's office is working on that right now.

    In the meantime, if you have any information about what happened to this John and Jane Doe, you're asked to do the right thing, pick up the phone and call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.

    Take No Prisoners: Self Defense Killings in Detroit Spike to 2200% Above National Average; Justifiable Homicide up 79%
    Mac Slavo

    As the economic crisis in 2008 took hold and the nation’s spiral into the next Great Depression became more apparent, we opined that crime would sky rocket as a consequence of millions of lost jobs, falling purchasing power and outright desperation.

    The city of Detroit, which has been a harbinger for future trends soon to take hold across major metropolitan areas around the country, has no doubt experienced the worst of the depression thus far. Entire city blocks have become unlivable due to foreclosures and rampant crime, the jobless rate in 2009 exceeded 50% and a mass exodus has left the population at levels not seen since 1910.

    By all accounts, the Motor City is ground zero for the collapse of America as we know it. Reminiscent of poverty stricken third world countries, it’s gotten so bad in Detroit that there are areas of the city where police and emergency services personnel refuse to go.

    This has left law abiding residents of the city no choice but to arm themselves and start taking matters into their own hands.

     

    The people of Detroit are taking no prisoners.

    Justifiable homicide in the city shot up 79 percent in 2011 from the previous year, as citizens in the long-suffering city armed themselves and took matters into their own hands. The local rate of self-defense killings now stands 2,200 percent above the national average. Residents, unable to rely on a dwindling police force to keep them safe, are fighting back against the criminal scourge on their own. And they’re offering no apologies.

    “We got to have a little Old West up here in Detroit. That’s what it’s gonna take,” Detroit resident Julia Brown told The Daily.

    The last time Brown, 73, called the Detroit police, they didn’t show up until the next day. So she applied for a permit to carry a handgun and says she’s prepared to use it against the young thugs who have taken over her neighborhood, burglarizing entire blocks, opening fire at will and terrorizing the elderly with impunity.

    “I don’t intend to be one of their victims,” said Brown, who has lived in Detroit since the late 1950s. “I’m planning on taking one out.”



    Average police response time for priority calls in the city, according to the latest data available, is 24 minutes. In comparable cities across the country, it is well under 10 minutes.

    Citizens like Brown feel they have been left with little choice but to take the law into their own hands.



    Detroiters are arming themselves with shotguns and handguns and buying guard dogs. Anything to take care of their own. And privately, residents say neighborhood watch groups in Detroit are widely armed.

    “It’s like the militiamen who stepped up way back when. That’s where the neighborhood folks are,” said James “Jackrabbit” Jackson, a 63-year-old retired Detroit cop who has patrolled the Jefferson-Chalmers neighborhood for years.

    “They’re ready to fight,” Jackson said. “We don’t hardly see police anymore.”

    The city’s wealthier enclaves have hired private security firms. Intimidating men in armored trucks patrol streets lined with gracious old homes in a scene more likely seen in Mexico City than the United States.



    The Detroit Police Department, grappling with deep funding cuts in a city with a spiraling budget crisis, acknowledges that response times are high and says it is working on a plan to lower them. But a spokeswoman for the department insists the rise in justifiable homicides is unrelated.

    “It’s not about police response time because often the act has already taken place by the time the police are called,” said Sgt. Eren Stephens. She said citizens have a right to defend themselves.

    “Anytime a life is lost, we’re concerned,” she said. “But we can‘t be on every corner in front of every home. And we know that there are citizens who will do what they have to do to protect themselves.”

    Is it any wonder why recent firearms sales statistics indicate that 2011 was the largest year ever for gun sales in America, with a record 10.8 million guns sold?

    All of us should take heed. Budget cuts, economic woes and a rising criminal element throughout our country are leaving the populace more susceptible to violent crime than ever before. Like our fellow Americans in Detroit, it’s only a matter of time before we’re faced with similar paradigm shifts in our own cities, communities and neighborhoods.

    Get armed, get trained, and when faced with a life threatening situation, take no prisoners.
