The Demonic Mobs of Antifa

Posted on Comments

What motivates anti-police riots in such Democrat strongholds as Portland and Chicago? It is illogical to believe that the left-wing lesbian mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot, is an agent of white supremacy and that Chicago’s police force represents “systemic racism.” Likewise, the rioters in Portland are living under an all-Democrat government led by Mayor Ted Wheeler, who is entirely supportive of the Antifa mob’s goals. The irrational nature of such “protests” — their lack of any legitimate grievance or any demand more coherent than “defund the police” — indicates the disturbed mentality that inspires them.

Chicago:

Twelve protesters were arrested and 18 police officers injured during an altercation Friday in Chicago’s Grant Park over a statue of Christopher Columbus.
“Hundreds of protesters rallied, crowding around the Columbus statue while trying to tear it down. The statue was still vandalized and tagged with spray paint,” according to Fox 32.
Dozens of police officers were sent to disperse the crowd, and authorities confirmed to the outlet that 18 were hurt and some sent to nearby hospitals for treatment.
“At Friday’s protest, demonstrators at one point threw fireworks, cans and rocks at police officers who used batons. Some people climbed the wall surrounding the statue and some tried for 30 minutes to bring it down,” WGN 9 reported.

Portland:

Protesters in North Portland lit the Portland Police Association building on fire and police declared a riot while demonstrators in downtown Portland targeted fences on the 52nd straight night of protests in the city Saturday.
In North Portland, the PNW Youth Liberation Front, an organized group that has been leading demonstrations over the course of the past two months, hosted a protest to demand the abolition of the Portland Police Bureau and decry violence against people of color. After an evening gathering at Peninsula Park, marchers headed south on Interstate Avenue, stretching out for about five blocks.
They stopped outside the bureau’s North Precinct, chanting, “Quit your job.” The majority of the crowd dispersed from the precinct around 9:30 p.m., after officers announced demonstrators would be subject to arrest, and headed north on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.
Demonstrators traveled to the Portland Police Association, the Portland Police Bureau’s union. They then began flipping dumpsters around the building to form a barricade.
Police arrived at the building around 10:45 p.m., telling demonstrators they were subject to arrest and threatening to use crowd control munitions if people attempted to enter the Portland Police Association building.
“Stop criminal acts now and move to the east,” police said.
Two dumpsters that had been tipped onto their sides in the street were set on fire. Portland police declared the event a riot around 10:50 p.m. and told demonstrators to leave the area or be subject to arrest. They then charged protesters, throwing some demonstrators on the ground.
Several protesters entered the building and set it on fire, according to the police and social media posts.

This is nothing but a frenzy of hatred and violence — “Orange Man Bad!” — and the mayors of these cities are doing nothing to prevent these riots, because the Democratic Party supports Antifa and #BlackLivesMatter. This is a terrorist movement, organized with the goal of helping Democrats win the November election. And there may be something else involved, as Vox Day notes in quoting Roger Stone:

“I really do believe that those who are trying to undo this president, those who are trying to destroy me, trying to destroy Michael Flynn — who’s a very good man and great American patriot war hero — I do believe they’re satanic,” Stone tells Just The News in a podcast interview for The Pod’s Honest Truth. “I don’t believe that any of these people involved in my prosecution are really believers in God.”

These satanic forces control our nation’s cities. The streets of Portland and Chicago are ruled by mobs of demon-possessed monsters.




 

#BlackLivesMatter and the Political Mythology of ‘Systemic Racism’

Posted on Comments

 

You have probably never heard of Jamarcus Glover or Adrian Walker, a couple of dope dealers with criminal records (including possession of firearms as convict felons) who police say were running their operation out of a house on Elliot Avenue in Louisville, Kentucky. Cops had the house and the two dealers under surveillance and, according to an affidavit, detectives observed Glover and Walker making frequent visits to an apartment at 303 Springfield Drive, about 10 miles south of the dope house on Elliott Avenue. According to the affidavit, Glover listed this as his home address and had been seen picking up at least one package there. Detectives believed that Glover might be using the Springfield Drive address to receive or conceal his narcotics supply.

By now, the reader may be wondering, “So what? Why is McCain telling us these details about a couple of dope dealers in Louisville, Kentucky?”

 

Perhaps you have not followed the #BlackLivesMatter movement closely enough to know the name Breonna Taylor, but she rivals George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks as a cause célèbre of the movement. Protesters always include her name among the alleged victims of racism. She was killed by police, and white people are universally complicit in the systemic oppression that is blamed for Taylor’s death. Or so you must profess to believe, if you don’t want to be attacked by an angry mob.

Activists at Cornell University are trying to get Professor William Jacobson fired from his job because Jacobson refuses to be quiet about the outright lies promoted by #BlackLivesMatter, e.g., the myth that Mike Brown was holding his hands up saying “don’t shoot!” before a police officer shot him in Ferguson, Missouri. No one can be permitted to question the narrative of “systemic racism” as the all-purpose explanation when black people are shot by police. #BlackLivesMatter is a terrorist mob organized for the purpose of looting, arson and vandalism, toppling statues and descrating churches, as a means of intimidating the citizenry, with the goal of helping Democrats win the November election.

Inspiring fear is inherent to the #BlackLivesMatter project, and nearly everyone is afraid to question the “systemic racism” narrative of the movement. Do you want to get fired from your job? Do you want to be accused of racism? Do you want a gang of anarchists to show up at your house and frighten your children? No, of course not, and therefore you must shut up and pretend to believe whatever #BlackLivesMatter says.

Well, what role did racism play in the death of Breonna Taylor?

Zero. Nothing. Nada.

Breonna Taylor Search Warra… by Robert Stacy McCain on Scribd

What happened was this: Police investigating Jamarcus Glover and Adrian Walker’s drug-dealing operation got a warrant for the apartment on Springfield Drive that Glover listed as his address. Glover had been seen at that address, where he picked up a package that detectives believed might have been related to his drug business. The tenant of the apartment — the person whose name was on the lease — was Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old EMT who worked for University of Louisville Health. Police got a so-called “no-knock” warrant, and when they rammed through the door in the wee hours of the morning of March 13, Taylor’s boyfriend Kenneth Walker started shooting. Walker legally owned the pistol and reportedly believed the people busting into the apartment were intruders. Police returned fire, and of the more than 20 shots fired, eight struck Taylor, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Breonna Taylor was both black and innocent, but she was not a victim of racism. Bad police tactics, yes, but racism, no.

Taylor had previously dated Jamarcus Glover, and apparently they had maintained what an attorney for Taylor’s family called a “passive friendship,” since then, which might explain why Glover was using her apartment as his mailing address. Glover was arrested at the Elliott Avenue address the same night as the police raid on Taylor’s apartment.

At least one police officer involved in the raid has been fired, and the Taylor family has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the city of Louisville. Everybody will get their day in court, so why are people marching around shouting Breonna Taylor’s name as if this proves something about “systemic racism”? This was a tragic incident, which I’m sure the Louisville Police Department regrets, but the fact that Breonna Taylor was black does not mean she was shot because she was black.

Do not allow yourself to be deceived by propaganda. Do not be intimidated into embracing a false narrative about “systemic racism.”




 

‘Drop the Knife! Drop It!’

Posted on Comments

 

Here’s a simple question: How many times should a cop have to tell you, “Drop the knife”? Like, suppose that you were an idiot who had just caused a six-car traffic pileup in Los Angeles, and when the police showed up on the scene, you were waving around a razor knife.

The cop has a pistol drawn and yells at you, “Drop the knife!”

One time?

Yeah, I think most people would drop the knife the first time.

Two times?

Let’s face it, most criminals aren’t very smart. So maybe the police officer with a pistol would have to yell “drop the knife” twice.

But suppose you are such a complete idiot that you not only cause a massive accident on San Pedro Street, but after the cop — you know, the one with a pistol — tells you the second time to drop the knife, you not only fail to comply, you keep advancing toward the cop.

At this point, you’re what we call “fair game.” And perhaps someone should have warned you — yes, you, the reckless-driving idiot waving around a razor knife in the middle of San Pedro Street — that the LAPD officer you are confronting is one of the best shots in America.

 

Officer Toni McBride’s marksmanship made her nationally famous. She is literally a poster girl for the “Hot Chicks With Guns” market. Looks like you picked the wrong day to bring a knife to a gunfight:

Over the course of roughly 15 seconds, she tried to deter Hernandez with a series of seven voice commands, first, “Let me see your hands!” then, “Stay right there!” Then, three times: “Drop the knife!”

Excuse me? I don’t care who you are, three times is sufficient warning. It seems, however, that Daniel Hernandez was unusually stupid:

Hernandez kept moving slowly toward her, throwing both arms out from his sides. McBride commanded, “Drop it!” a final time, a split second before firing two shots. Hernandez keeled forward to the asphalt, but quickly pushed himself up and forward. McBride fired two more rounds, then the final two as Hernandez rolled on the ground.

 

Six shots, six hits. Good shooting, Officer McBride.

Because this is 2020, of course, everybody in L.A. is trying to turn this into an excuse for a protest. “Stupid Lives Matter,” or whatever.

UPDATE: A commenter calls attention to a highly relevant fact:

A coroner’s autopsy would later show that Hernandez had methamphetamine in his system. Witnesses said he rejected any assistance and appeared to be cutting himself in the cab of his truck. (A medical examiner later noted cut marks on Hernandez’s forearms.)

Meth is a bad drug, which can cause paranoid psychosis. We don’t know how much meth Hernandez had been doing, but the fact that he plowed his truck into another vehicle and began cutting himself would lend itself to the supposition that he was deranged, demented, delusional, off his rocker, out of his mind, and cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

Proving once again that Crazy People Are Dangerous.




 

White Lives Don’t Matter: Democrats Encourage Murderous Racial Hatred

Posted on Comments

#BlackLivesMatter is a racial hate movement promoted by Democrats who believe that it will help them win elections. The essential message of the movement’s propaganda is that all white people are evil racist oppressors. If any white person dares object to this hateful message, his objection will be cited as proof that he is a racist. The wave of criminal violence inspired by #BlackLivesMatter is not an accidental consequence of this propaganda; violent crime is the desired result because Democrats have embraced a radical “worse is better” mentality. The worse conditions become in the black community, the more motivativation there will be for black voters to go to the polls in November, and (because Democrats always get about 95% of the black vote) this increase in turnout will mean that Democrats win more elections.

One obvious consequece of the Democrats’ cynical strategy is that #BlackLivesMatter will actually increase white racism. After all, if black people are full of anti-white rage — which is what Democrats seek to inspire — their hostile attitudes will inspire fear. And if Democrats deliberately demonize police and encourage black people to engage in violent crime — which is what #BlackLivesMatter is about — then white people concerned for their safety will avoid areas where the population is largely black. You see that Democrats are thus pursuing a “divide and conquer” strategy, with the belief that they can win the fall election by promoting racial polarization. The results are frightening:

Police in Texas are searching for a suspect accused of attacking an 83-year-old man, taking his car and running over him with the stolen vehicle.
According to KTRK, the incident occurred about 4 p.m. June 28 at a gas station on Beechnut Street in Houston. In a Thursday news release, police said the victim walked out of the Valero and started his Toyota Camry before getting out again to smoke a cigarette.
Moments later, a 20- to 30-year-old Black man approached the victim, punched his face and stole the car, police said. The suspect then struck the victim with the car before fleeing, according to the news release.
The victim told officers that he didn’t know the attacker, who weighs about 180 to 200 pounds and stands 6 feet to 6 feet, 2 inches tall, KTRK reported. . . .
Three days later, police found the stolen car abandoned on Synott Road, the release said.

Pause for a moment and ask yourself: Why isn’t this national news? If the races were reversed — if a white man had attacked a black man, stolen his car and run over him — wouldn’t this story be covered by the New York Times, CNN and every other major national media outlet?

As it is, this is strictly “local news,” but obviously every white person in East Texas now knows to stay far away from Houston, a city full of angry black Democrat voters who want to kill white people.




 

Convicted Sex Offender Arrested Again (Want to Guess What He Was Doing?)

Posted on Comments

 

Three years ago, when Shaelyn Reed was 17, he was convicted of raping a 13-year-old girl in Washington State. Reed, who is six feet tall and weighs more than 250 pounds, was required to register as a sex offender upon his release from custody last year at age 19. Because of his age at the time of his conviction, Reed served his sentence in Juvenile Rehabilitation. You might think that this blubbery pervert would avoid doing anything that could send him to actual adult prison, where the inmates tend to be muscular brutes who take pleasure in inflicting sadistic violence on child molesters. But it turns out that Reed isn’t very smart. He joined Antifa:

A convicted child rapist was charged with felony assault stemming from violence at an Antifa and left-wing protest in Olympia, Wash. on Sunday.
Shaelyn A. Reed, 20, of Olympia, is accused of striking a man on the head with a baton in front of Olympia City Hall. Video recorded of the assault shows the victim bleeding profusely from the head. According to Olympia Police Lt. Paul Lower, Reed allegedly disposed of his weapon in a trash receptacle and changed clothes before being arrested. . . .
Reed is currently held at the county jail on felony assault charges. Police believe he was also part of a group of rioters who destroyed property at an Antifa and Black Lives Matter protest in Olympia on July 5.

Before the bloody violence on Sunday, a few dozen Antifa and far-left protestors countered a small conservative rally. As the two groups met, insults and curses were exchanged, with Antifa accusing the conservatives of being “fascists.” Video recorded at the scene shows far-left protesters physically blocking drivers from leaving the rally and photographing the cars’ license plates.
A group of masked protestors appear to confront a man, identified by first name Edward, before a scuffle breaks out in the street. A witness says Edward was pepper-sprayed, which led to an attack where he was beaten and hit on the head with a baton. The man was punched by a second protester and a third person who hits him repeatedly with a protest sign. As the man is kneeling on the ground and bleeding, protesters continue to call him a “fascist.” Edward was taken by ambulance to Providence St. Peter Hospital.
“The police were in City Hall watching what was happening, and they didn’t come out or respond because they’ve been instructed not to,” says Peter Diaz, who co-organized Sunday’s conservative rally. “We started waving the public through the parking lot to go around Antifa. They’re terrified — Antifa was banging on the cars.”
Diaz added: “The agitators hiding behind the BLM movement are not a problem, they are a symptom of the problem. The problem is the lack of leadership from the politicians running our city.”

Here is another video of the violent attack for which Reed was arrested:

 

Antifa sure attracts some quality people, huh?




 

Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Has All the Wrong Answers on NYC Crime

Posted on Comments

 

Gosh, it’s just so mysterious:

Following the George Floyd protests which devolved into deadly riots that destroyed black lives, black livelihoods, and black monuments, violent crime sparked in New York City last month. The Big Apple experienced a 130 percent increase in the number of shootings across the city between June 1 and June 30. Murders, burglaries, and auto thefts also shot up. Yet last week, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) suggested this violent crime was a reaction to the economic downturn due to coronavirus, rather than an outgrowth of the riots or the calls to defund and abolish police departments.
“Do we think this has to do with the fact that there’s record unemployment in the United States right now? The fact that people are at a level of economic desperation that we have not seen since the Great Recession?” AOC asked in a virtual town hall meeting on Thursday.
“Maybe this has to do with the fact that people aren’t paying their rent and are scared to pay their rent and so they go out, and they need to feed their child and they don’t have money so … they feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry,” Ocasio-Cortez added.
AOC did not address the destructive riots or the fact that protesters are demonizing police and calling for their abolition, demands that demoralize law enforcement and contribute to their withdrawal from the streets. Instead, the congresswoman complained that the NYPD operates with a $6 billion budget. Mayor Bill de Blasio has announced a $1 billion cut to the police force, but that has not taken effect yet.

The facts . . . Well, why waste facts on a Democrat? Nobody who knows anything about AOC believes she’s actually against crime.

Portland #BlackLivesMatter Rioters Manufacture ‘White Supremacist’ Hoax

Posted on Comments

 

The #BlackLivesMatter/#Antifa mob in Portland, Oregon, has been “protesting” — which is to say, rioting — for the past six weeks. The “mostly peaceful” protesters in Portland are a horde of dangerous criminals, and no one is safe on the streets of Portland so long as this vile crew is allowed to continue congregating there. Did I mention that Portland is a Democrat-controlled city in a Democrat-controlled state?

The governor (Kate Brown) and both U.S. Senators in Oregon are Democrats. Hillary Clinton carried Oregon by an 11-point margin in 2016, and in Multnomah County, she got 73% of the vote. Portland is so far left it makes San Francisco seem conservative by comparison.

What is it that the Portland mob is rioting against? Is there a racism problem in this hive of leftist scum? Is police brutality a problem in Portland? Or is it the case, as I suspect, that these dope-addled anarchists were just looking for an excuse to riot, and seized upon the George Floyd case to justify a frenzy of vandalism and public disturbance?

Thursday night, the Portland mob thought they’d found themselves a heroic martyr for “social justice,” when a guy named Dominique Dunn was shot at a strip club called Reveal Lounge on the city’s south side.

 

You may ask, “How does getting shot at a strip club make you a social justice hero?” Well, Antifa claimed, Dunn was “murdered for being Black,” and various social-media accounts put out the claim that Dunn was shot by a white supremacist who shouted racial slurs.

And then cops posted the suspect’s mug shot.

 

Does this guy look like a white supremacist to you? Jordan Clark, 25, doesn’t seem a likely candidate for the Aryan Brotherhood, if you get my drift, and Andy Ngo has the real story: Clark shot Dunn after a drug deal went bad, according to sources. No “white supremacy” was involved.

Meanwhile, the anarchist mob continues rioting in Portland, and last night the rioters pissed off some federal agents that President Trump sent to protect the federal courthouse there.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The punk who took a tear-gas canister in the face, Donavan La Bella, underwent surgery and is back home in his mom’s basement, claiming to be a victim.

Hey, maybe you should have something better to do on Saturday night than hang around a bunch of anarchist incels? Just sayin’ . . .

Also, don’t ever try to rip off Jordan Clark in a dope deal.




 

Black-on-Black Crime Explodes in the Wake of #BlackLivesMatter Protests

Posted on Comments

So entirely predictable that it’s scarcely “news” to report it:

It was a violent night in Chicago on the heels of a violent of Fourth of July weekend including the fatal shooting of a 7-year-old girl on the West Side.
19 people were shot, four fatally Monday in violence across Chicago including six people who were shot in Gresham on the South Side.
According to Chicago police, a group of people were hanging around 10:40 p.m. in the 1300-block of West 76th Street when someone began shooting in their direction.
A 25-year-old man was struck in the chest and taken to Stroger Hospital in critical condition, police said. Two other men, 23 and 21, were stuck in the left thigh and buttocks and taken to the same hospital in good condition.
A 19-year-old man was struck multiple times in the back and taken to the University of Chicago Medical Center in critical condition, police said. A 20-year-old man was struck in the ankle and taken to the same hospital in good condition.
A 22-year-old woman was struck in both legs and taken to Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn in good condition.
A man was killed and two other people were wound in a shooting in Lawndale on the West Side.
About 11:10 p.m. officers found a 30-year-old man unresponsive in the 3600-block of West Douglas Boulevard, with multiple gunshot wounds, Chicago police said. He was rushed to Mt. Sinai Hospital in critical condition, but died a short time later. . . .
From Thursday at 6 p.m. through Sunday night, 87 people were shot, 17 fatally in Chicago including 7-year-old Natalie Wallace who was fatally shot . . . Saturday night.

It’s not just Chicago, it’s a nationwide epidemic:

Neighborhoods in some of the largest US cities erupted in gun violence over the Fourth of July weekend, killing an estimated 160 people and leaving more than 500 wounded from Friday night to Sunday.
Georgia’s governor, Brian Kemp, declared a state of emergency on Monday after 31 people were shot and five killed over the weekend in Atlanta. He authorized 1,000 national guard troops to “protect state property and patrol our streets”. . . .
In New York, a series of shootings on Saturday and Sunday claimed at least nine lives and wounded 41 others in a rise in incidents in some neighborhoods. A 15-year-old boy was wounded in the Bronx.
And in Philadelphia, a six-year-old boy died of a gunshot wound amid five fatal shootings in about five hours on Sunday afternoon, police said.

Democrats can’t blame white racist cops for this, so they don’t care.
