The American Thinker: Crime Is the New Black Entitlement
2017-04-06
[American Thinker] As long as black people are permanent victims of relentless white racism, cops should not chase them, juries should not convict them, judges should not sentence them, schools should not punish them, and white victims should not complain about the black crime and violence so wildly out of proportion.

This is what a growing number of lawmakers, professors and, of course, reporters are prescribing as a way to "improve the way our system serves justice."

The latest came on NPR a few days ago when Georgetown Law professor and former federal prosecutor Paul Butler broke it down for the racially unenlightened:

"If you go to criminal court in D.C., you would think that white people don’t commit crimes," Butler said. "White people don’t use drugs, they don’t get into fights, they don’t steal, because all you see are African American people."

Before you pack your child off to Georgetown Law school -- or if you usually do not believe something too ridiculous to be true -- you might want to hear the distinguished professor wax at length on this video: Racial Jury Nullification at Georgetown Law.

One group of "African American people" Butler will never see in a D.C. court are the black people who beat the white husband of an NPR executive into a bloody, broken mess on the D.C. Metro line. You can find the details here from my account at the American Thinker, but not from NPR, which never covered it. NPR Another Victim of Black Violence and Denial.

Neither will Butler find the black people who attacked the NPR producer from Kentucky, in D.C. on company business. You can find the details of that in the scintillating best seller Don’t Make the Black Kids Angry. But not on NPR.

And yes, professor, black criminality is just as wildly out of proportion in Washington as it is in the rest of country. Even more so.

Butler says there are two justice systems in America, one for white people and one for black. He proposes to correct this inequity with a system of racial jury nullification to promote the new entitlement of black criminality: "I encourage any juror who thinks the police or prosecutors have crossed the line in a particular case to refuse to convict."

#11  Unfortunately gets you three hots and a cot and shelter with 24 hour security. There should be labor involved for that. Else you sleep out in the prison yard like the dog that you are.

#10  Crime is no one's entitlement. What poppycock. If a person grew up poor, are they entitled to practice crime? How about wymen--are they entitled to tilt justice in their favor because they are wymen? Native Americans? What a load of cow pucky. Don't be surprised when people take the law into their own hands.

#7  IIRC, Obama's Education department was already pushing this for schools. More blacks were getting suspended for disrupting class, fighting, etc. than whites. The "solution"? Don't suspend blacks. The result, of course: total chaos in the classroom.

#6  One of the earliest experiments in multiculturalism took place in Iraq. I believe it has been written about quite extensively. The stories differing only slightly with tribal separation the central theme. It's reported foundations are visible yet today. Tours of the site are/were available.

Could there be something to be learned here ?

#5  "If you go to criminal court in D.C., you would think that white people don’t commit crimes," Butler said. "White people don’t use drugs, they don’t get into fights, they don’t steal, because all you see are African American people."

Given the almost 'no go' zones in Chicago for cops, you also get what you deserve for what passes for civilization. Remember the old days when they cried for 'equal before the law'? Now they're arguing for exemption from the law. BTW, who promoted the environment of no fathers? Your experiment in wiping out thousands of years of social evolution for your modern, cosmopolitan alternative life style has failed and failed badly.

#4  1. NPR should lose all of its funding, free licenses, interns paid for by tax dollars, etc.

2. This is nothing new folks. The outcry by the various factions of the left after the Trayvon Martin incident, Ferguson, etc., and NPR's willful refusal to cover the Christian-Newsome murders, are motivated by a simply defined narrative: black people should be allowed to do ANYTHING they want to whites, including rape and murder, and whites should not be allowed to resist or respond in any way.

#3  Well, it is consistent with the theory.

Modeled after the unprecedented successes of our "improved" educational system.

[Sarc tag, is it really needed ?]

#1  The result would be more raped, beaten, and murdered blacks than the Klan ever fantasized about, all done by other blacks.

Well, OK, some would be dead after thinking their new license worked in middle and upper class neighborhoods.
