#1 If you believe that murderers should go to prison, then somehow, you are a beacon of white supremacy or you’re a racist.

...or believe an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, or a brother for a brother.

#2 Civilization is a thin veneer over savagery. The savages are out to toss off the veneer.

#3 This week we learned that bike helmets are white supremacist, racist items and the enforcement of laws requiring them are racist. But take heart, because there’s a huge upside to the governmental response to perceived racism. Wait for it.
This week the King County, Wash. (greater Seattle) health poobahs rescinded the laws requiring bicyclists in the state’s most populous county to wear helmets. The King County Board of Health voted 11-2 to get rid of the requirement because “BIPOC riders and riders experiencing homelessness … are bearing the brunt of disproportionate enforcement, citations and fees,” Board Chair Joe McDermott declaimed.
Encouraging people to use helmets and directing them to cheaper helmets is the new course of action. Of course, bike enthusiasts have agitated for years to deep-six the helmet law, but the health board needed a better reason than mere freedom to get rid of it. As we learned this week on the pages of the Washington Post, “freedom” is a white supremacist construct. Voila! Helmets are racist because black people and the homeless and others get ticketed at a greater rate to the proportion of ridership.

#4 Now their heads will get cracked disproportionately. That will also be whitey's fault.
