Jason Whitlock on Memphis PD Video of Tyre Nichols Beating
[FOX] During an appearance on FNC’s "Tucker Carlson Tonight," Jason Whitlock, host of the "Fearless" podcast, said the actions of the five Memphis Police Officers charged with the murder of Tyre Nichols were a reflection of the breakdown of the family.

According to Whitlock, the beating was a clear-cut case of illegality by the accused law enforcement officers. However, it also appeared to represent the culture of single mothers who have risen to leadership posts in many American cities.

"They don’t want us focused on reality. Hey, if they want to devote an hour of coverage to this and weekend coverage of this, and they want to take us to a good place, I would examine the racial element of this because there is a racial element. And this is a story about young black men and their inability to treat each other in a humane way. Everybody involved in this on the street level was either 24 to 32 years old, everybody. It was a group of young black men, five-on-one. It looked like gang violence to me. It looked like what young black men do when they’re supervised by a single black woman, and that’s what they’ve got going on in the Memphis Police Department."

"They’ve elected some — put some black woman in charge of the police force, and we are getting the same kind of chaos and disunity and violence that we see in a lot of these cities that are run by single mothers," Whitlock continued. "If we want to discuss the breakdown of family that leads to disrespect for authority that causes you to resist the police and run from the police and not comply with the police because you resist authority at all time because there was no male authority in your home, let’s have that discussion."

"But that’s not where they want to take us," he added. "They want to take us down the path of saying, you know what, this is Tucker Carlson’s fault. This is some random white — this is Donald Trump’s fault. It’s not. It is the breakdown of family and the buying into all these left-wing things that have nothing to do with promoting family."

#8 Sounds remarkably like the Senior Leadership of Memphis PD got the idea from the main plot theme from L.A. Confidential or Mulholland Falls?

#10 Chief Cerelyn Davis is married and has one daughter and two grandchildren, according to Mediaite. Whether she was once a single mother is not clear from a cursory search of the internet, but Mr. Whitlock should be sure of his facts before forcing the situation to fit his Procrustean bed. A pity, because that point about young Black males from fatherless households (in fact, all children who grow up without their fathers) is to important to be damaged by information as easily found as a simple name search.
