Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance, and with me, of course, is my indispensable co-host, Paul Kersey.
Now, I must say, we have been living through what is, without a doubt, the most important week or two in the history of American race relations in at least half a century and perhaps more.
These are strange and deeply disturbing times and it is in particular in such disturbing times that we need to be able to stay in touch with all of our listeners wherever you are.
There may come a time when you do not get notifications from YouTube about our podcast.
So, please, I urge you to get in touch with us.
You can send us your email address at the Contact Us tab at amran.com, or Mr. Kersey will give you an alternative way to get in touch with us.
Yeah, you can email me at BecauseWeLiveHereAtProtonMail.com.
Once again, all one word, BecauseWeLiveHereAtProtonMail.com.
And for Mr. Taylor, I just want to say I hope all of our listeners out there around the world, and especially in the increasingly disunited states of America, I hope you're all doing well and staying safe.
Yes.
Now, it's been a particularly black period for the Confederacy.
Now I know that some of our listeners have no particular sympathy for the Confederacy, but both Mr. Kersey and myself are loyal sons of the South, and so it may be with some difficulty that we discuss the next segment without losing our composure, but we will attempt to do so.
This very powerful wave of black moral superiority combined with white spinelessness has knocked down quite a number of Confederate monuments.
The Richmond police did nothing whatsoever as protesters tore down a Confederate monument in Monroe Park in Richmond that of course is in Virginia.
Furthermore, they stood aside as a mob knocked down the Jefferson Davis statue on Monument Avenue.
Monument Avenue has been this sterling tribute to the Confederacy for quite a long time, and I somehow had the fantasy that those monuments might survive.
Well, yes, the police stood by while a mob tore down the president of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis, but they did show up in a handy way just in time to haul the statue away.
And Richmond Mayor LeBar Stoney, who is of course one of our African-American fellow citizens, he promised the rioters that all Confederate monuments in the city of Richmond will go.
He will make sure that they disappear.
In Birmingham, Alabama, rioters tried to pull down a Confederate obelisk.
It was another beautiful monument, but the black mayor was worried that someone might get hurt as something toppled onto him.
So, instead, he let them know, you know, you fellas can knock it off.
We will finish the job for you.
So, He took the city down, leaving behind a considerable mess, holes in the sidewalk, piles of rubble, but I suppose that's now a fit tribute to the Confederacy.
And Mr. Taylor, I've got to jump in and tell you about Birmingham, because the state of Alabama actually Tried to sue to stop that because in Alabama the law states that these monuments are protected and so the black mayor of 70 about 74% black Birmingham just decided upon himself as you said against the law because again there are no consequences anymore to bring down this just beautiful obelisk and I I have seen it many times and it is a
It's hard because they're all going to come down.
They're all going to come down.
Yes, I think we must prepare for essentially the obliteration of the Confederacy and of the nation that was strangled aborning the nation that your and my ancestors fought so bravely and so loyally to preserve and defend.
But yes, I fear that is correct.
Now one wonders, Was Derek Chauvin, the fellow who ended up killing George Floyd, was he a Southerner?
Was he a supporter of the Confederacy?
I have absolutely no reason to think that.
He's probably a Northerner, born and bred.
What his opinions are of Robert E. Lee, for example, we do not know.
But this, of course, is an excuse to turn on anything that might be offensive, not only to blacks, But for all of our non-white fellow citizens, as I might- Mr. Towne, you made a great point on a video you did with John Derbyshire, where you talked about how this was just the spark.
It could have been anything.
You know, talking about George Floyd and now he's a saint, whatever, you know, he's been basically knighted by this anti-white world order.
It could have been anything.
That's how fragile this system really was, and the excuse that had to be made.
I mean, this was a band-aid that had to be ripped off, and that is the one silver lining of all of this, is now we know just how anti-white the system really is.
Well, and I believe one of the most obvious symbols of this is it's not just Confederate monuments that are going down.
Richmond used to have a beautiful statue of Christopher Columbus, but in order to honor black lives, apparently, a mob tore it down, tried to burn it, which seems like a futile enterprise given that it was a bronze statue, and failing to do that, they threw it into a pond.
This is Christopher Columbus, the first white man to show up in the Western Hemisphere.
In effect, by tearing him down, doesn't everyone in America realize that this is a message to all of us?
That we are illegitimate?
That we never should have come?
Where will this lead?
But I don't think the people who are ruling us and the people who are now preening virtuously have the slightest idea of where this will lead.
Well, and they call us colonizers.
You see that word used quite frequently now.
Colonizers.
Colonizers.
You know, News1.com.
And you know, in a way, it's even worse than that.
It's not just colonizers.
What it is, we are perpetrators of genocide.
After all, that is where it all comes down.
Christopher Columbus was the leader of a genocidal band, and we are simply his genocidal followers.
That's really the way the thinking goes.
And, you know, to get a picture of what the general impression The general mentality that has raced through the American population, I'd like to go to The Guardian, the British Guardian.
The Guardian is always full of spectacular nonsense about the United States.
In this case, it's spectacular nonsense written in a June 3rd article called, and I think this title is significant, In America, black deaths are not a flaw in the system, they are the system.
Yes, the system is designed to kill black people.
And let me quote, the expendability of black lives is not a flaw in the system, it is the system.
We are meant, this is written by a black man, we are meant to die.
Or at the very least, we're not meant to be protected, to be respected, to be valued, to be considered fully human.
That is how racism works and it has operated efficiently throughout American history.
I guess that's why the number of blacks continues to increase.
But we are just constantly eliminating them, constantly killing them, I suppose.
But that is no doubt the view that many people in the United States have.
And I believe you are going to tell us about the utterly shameful and despicable response that the police had in London to Black Lives Matter mob.
I will in one second.
I want to give you an anecdote just to show you how insane that is.
So, I got an email.
I'm not going to say who it came from, but it came from a family member of one of the people that I had written about a few years ago, in that his name is, her name is, a series of white people who were murdered by blacks.
And this person complained and said, how dare you bring this story up?
If this person were still alive, they would be ashamed.
How dare you do this?
There's no response to that.
It's like, okay, if their family members don't want their family member to be remembered for how they died, and if they're ashamed of how they died because it might promote certain stigmas about the black population and stereotypes, then why should we even remember them?
And this was a particular gruesome murder of a mother and her daughter who were murdered by a black guy.
And they were more ashamed of the story that promoted this idea of black criminality than they were of how their family member died, Mr. Taylor.
I think that's all too common.
All too common.
You remember, of course, the story of Amy Beal.
And of course, that was the lady who went to South Africa to save the infant Negroes in South Africa, as well as every other black person.
And remember, she was done to death.
One bullet, one settler, I believe was the slogan that the black mob used as they murdered her.
Then there was Reginald Denny, of course, who was nearly killed during the 1992 riots in Los Angeles.
Forgave his assailants, embraced them, hugged them, and had absolutely no reason to resent this attack that nearly killed him, which was televised all around the world.
But yes, please, please do tell us about the British police, the London police, London's finest.
So yeah, the story is entitled Run, Piggy, Run!
Cops Chased Down Streets at Black Lives Matter protest.
Attacked.
Broken ribs.
Collapsed lungs.
So in the post-Empire United Kingdom, you get to see just how deracinated the actual native indigenous population is and the disarmed police.
They don't carry guns, obviously, in England.
And in London, like I said, the Black Lives Matter protests turned quite violent this past Sunday, and the London squads were just left to fend for themselves.
As we saw all across this country, where cops were Especially in New York City, where the police were on their own because the elected officials had no reason to stand by them.
So, in this case, Sky News reported on crowds pelting officers with flying objects and yelling, as I stated, Reporter Noel Phillips shared the story about how things went south as police officers were simply trying to make an arrest.
He shared the footage of the crowd around them growing restless and they started to throw items.
Were you going to say something?
Yes.
Did this fellow say that things went south?
Are you quoting or are you putting words in his mouth?
Because things going south, you know, that's racist.
That implies there's something about the south that's not a good thing.
And by south, we don't tend to mean Alabama and New Jersey.
We mean anything south of the Rio Grande.
Now, did he really say went south or was that your editorial comment?
That's the language that's used in the article that I got this from.
Well, gosh.
Well, shame on them.
That's all I can say.
There you go.
So, you know, things exploded.
The officers decided to take off because they were outnumbered.
And they took off down the street to shelter behind some stone portals near the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
And the mob continued to attack them.
It's interesting this reporter who commented on this he had tweeted out earlier in the day He tweeted this quote what I'm feeling today on the streets of central London is unity all about peace fairness Equality and justice and then in quote and then of course later He shared a pretty famous image of a white police officer walking back from the portals and he's got he's bleeding profusely from the head and You know, this is just it's just this is a This is a horrible metaphor for what's happening all across the Western world right now.
Well, Mr. Kersey, a white man bleeding profusely.
That, of course, is the image of peace, justice, and equality.
Don't you realize that?
And I saw this astonishing video footage.
The police are on the run.
There must be 20 of them, at least.
And they're being chased by an overwhelmingly black howling mob that are shouting, run, piggy, run.
What an expression of moral, physical, spiritual capitulation than to have police on the run like that.
I hadn't realized that they'd been injured, but I'm not at all surprised given the opposition that they were facing.
You know, there was a remarkable BBC tweet that went out.
It's been since deleted.
And I believe the title was something like, 27 Police Injured in Mostly Peaceful Demonstrations.
And they had a photograph along with it.
The photograph was one of complete chaos.
Horses, mounted officers on horses in an obviously confused state.
One police officer flat on his back.
There's a bicycle rearing up in the air.
It looks as though somebody's about to fling it at a police officer.
Mostly peaceful.
Well, we're glad to hear that, BBC.
But this is part of the spin that the world's media are trying to put on this entire event.
It was, as you say, according to that other reporter, it was a festival of peace, equality, and justice.
Yeah, you know, hopefully someone out there, if you have some fantastic video editing skills, I would juxtapose all of the images Mr. Taylor, and the video he just described, and I would put that with Enoch Powell's famous rivers of blood speech.
I think that would be quite the video.
It probably won't last that long, but I think that, you know, the recitation of the speech, I think it shows how prescient he was, and it's just, it's hard to be living through this.
It really is.
Well, let's slip back to the United States.
There was a franchise of Ali's Donuts in North Kensington, Rhode Island.
Apparently heretofore, it had offered discounts for police officers.
But it then announced that in solidarity, in honor of George Floyd, and as a way to combat systemic racism, it was going to stop giving a discount to police officers on donuts.
Well, what was the reaction?
People lined up around the block to buy donuts, showing their approval.
Now, I must say that this line that stretched around the block, it was full of good white people with masks and maintaining social distancing of at least six feet.
But this, to me, was a dismaying reaction.
But given the mass insanity that has infected our country, I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.
And there was another story having to do with a delicatessen in Philadelphia called DeBruno Brothers.
Did you hear about what happened with them?
I did.
Well, one of their stores was smashed and blasted, looted.
It wasn't set on fire, fortunately.
But after they boarded up the windows, they went back into business and they posted a sign.
It said, complimentary lunch and beverage for all on-duty Philadelphia police officers Well, this so irritated the employees of this DiBruno's delicatessen that the staff sent a letter to the company's management condemning its, quote, support for police while neglecting those rightfully demonstrating against racial justice.
Well, they weren't neglecting anybody.
I suppose they're supposed to give free food to all the demonstrators?
Free food to the people who smashed up their restaurant?
Well, and the letter went on to charge that even after management took down that sign, ooh, they evilly continued to give free meals to cops.
And the employees threatened to strike if their demands were not met.
Their demands included a public apology, a meaningful and transparent donation to the local BLM chapter, and a meeting with upper management.
Well, hours after these demands were made, De Bruno's brothers, De Bruno Brothers Management, now they have half a dozen locations in the city, so it's something of a sizable operation, they issued a letter of apology.
apologizing for the sign, and they promised to donate to several organizations, including BLM, and to send all management to racial equity training.
So this is a happy ending for, again, this wave of insanity that has swept the country.
And I believe you have another wave of insanity story that comes to us from Alabama.
The police are apologizing.
Sweet home Alabama, this wave of anti-police zealotry, it's hard to watch.
It's hard to see what's happening.
And even in a place like Alabama, and the Madison Police Department is apologizing after it dared post, quote, all lives matter, unquote, on social media.
The department quickly deleted its all lives matter post, and they put up this statement.
Our intentions were to say that all lives are sacred.
We missed the mark on this in the context to the protest today.
We apologize and will work hard to hear you all more clearly than previously.
We heard your comments, the department said.
Very jumbled statement and it's just so sad that how hard is it to understand that, you know what, all lives should matter.
I mean, are we at a point now where it's okay to say, you know what, white lives don't matter.
I think we're there.
We're there, alright.
It's not okay to be white.
And if you say all lives matter, you are committing a sin against the new civic religion.
You know, there's an interesting follow-up to that.
The Philadelphia Inquirer, their top editor, Stan Wischnowski, resigned after he published a headline that said, Buildings Matter Too.
Buildings don't matter.
They can be burned down in the name of Black Lives Matter.
And this, of course, had to do with the fact that, OK, it's all very well.
We must mourn the death of George Floyd, St.
George.
And, of course, we must do everything to right racial justice.
But buildings matter, too.
And we should not be torching them in the name of racial equity.
Well, after that happened, after he had published this headline, the minority staff took the day off from work in protest.
And then Mr. Wyschnowski and two other top editors signed an apology to readers and staff calling the headline deeply offensive.
Well, that wasn't enough, of course.
Now he has resigned.
And Saturday night, Diane Mastral, this is just last Saturday, an Inquirer journalist who heads the newspaper union at the paper, wrote, to my colleagues of color, Please take heart that you have been heard.
In other words, walking out, going on strike, that's effective.
It's just like rioting.
You get what you want that way.
And she added, Diane Mastrell adds, but you must not grow silent.
There's much within the Inquirer that still needs to change.
Well, Diane, darling, I think there's no danger that they're growing silent.
What do you think, Mr. Kersey?
Do you think they'll grow silent without her, you know, encouraging them to speak up?
No, I don't, I don't.
You know, this reminds me of what happened back in 2016.
The Memphis Commercial Appeal, they put out, their headline said, you know, Black Lives Matter, terror attack in Dallas, five white cops killed.
The next day, the white editor apologized for that truthful headline.
And this brings, and said, we shouldn't have said that, even though it's an accurate statement of what happened.
It was a Black Lives Matter member who did murder five white cops and shoot, I guess, I think 12 were shot?
Yes.
You said something earlier about these BLM chapters and all this violence that's happening in Black Lives Matter.
In their name and in their honor across the country.
Are they able to be sued for the property damage they're doing and the looting?
I mean, that's, this is just what's so befuddling to me.
Well, if it were, if it were any kind of white organization, of course they'd go after them with a RICO.
They'd be locked up quicker than you could say Jack Robinson.
But no, because as we'll get to it, there's just been this mass dropping of charges against rioters because they're rioting for a holy cause.
They're rioting for a forsaken man.
But on continuing on the subject of people who have gotten in trouble for not bending the knee and not confessing their sin, CrossFit CEO Greg Glassman.
He's been embroiled in controversy for the past week.
First of all, because he failed to promptly put out a statement expressing solidarity with the protesters and support for black athletes.
You know, silence is violence after all, you know?
And white silence is violence.
Well, he failed to do this when he was supposed to.
Well, then he committed an unpardonable sin He passed along a tweet from something called the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation.
And this tweet from the Institute was nothing but a full cap message.
Racism is a public health issue.
To which he replied, very briefly, he said, Floyd 19.
Floyd 19.
He's pointing out, of course, that everything that has been prompted by the death of George Floyd is a pretty serious public health issue, too.
Well, that was too much.
I think that must be, as far as I can tell, that is just about the shortest tweet or pronouncement that has ended up in a resignation or a firing.
I suppose you could pronounce Well, one word that begins with N with two syllables and has two G's in the middle, but Floyd 19.
That is a pretty concentrated and concise way to lose control of the company that you founded.
Yeah, nugget, by the way, is a horrible word, right?
Is that the word you were using?
What?
Yes.
Nugget?
Yes, yes.
Nugget, nugget is a terrible word.
No white person should ever pronounce it.
But you know, the stuff about Floyd, you know, I was thinking, maybe he will get a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Because when you think about the people who have gotten it, Rosa Parks got it simply for sitting down on a bus for half an hour.
Well, George Floyd gave his life.
He gave his life for his people.
He gave his life for civil rights.
Equality, I think he certainly deserves on far more than Rosa Parks did.
And then musing on this whole white silence is violence stuff.
To me, it's a little bit like believing in witchcraft.
The idea that somehow, by not saying a word, by not moving a muscle, white people are committing violence.
Well, does that mean, Mr. Kersey, that you and I are committing violence in our sleep?
We're being silent?
Is that violence?
We are.
And, you know, the way these monuments have been torn down, apparently white Whites are committing violence from the silence of the tomb.
Isn't that so?
Really, this idea that for white people to sit still, not move a muscle, not say a word, we're committing violence.
That really is a belief.
That's like believing in witchcraft as far as I'm concerned.
There was an article on either MSNBC or CNBC over the weekend where blacks were upset that white people were going and getting brunch in these cities where these riots were happening.
And they were acting as if nothing was going on.
And they were being silent.
How dare you go and eat brunch?
How dare you go and eat lunch outside at these restaurants in these gentrifying cities?
You need to be out here protesting with us.
Like you just said, this concept of Of dining while white is somehow the greatest sin.
It's somehow this heresy.
Because you're right.
It is important that people understand what is happening.
Again, George Floyd, this could have been anyone.
I remember a few years ago, this is something that I still think was very, it was tough to write because it was obvious how close America was to this moment.
Back in 2015, I believe, in Indianapolis, This white officer named Officer Perry Wren was killed in a gun battle.
He was shot by a black guy who had an AK-47.
I wrote that this could have been the moment.
This could have been the moment that if Officer Perry Wren had killed the black guy who killed him, That would have been it.
In my opinion, this had to have happened in a majority white, Midwestern city.
And Minneapolis was just perfect, even though we know from the autopsy this guy had all sorts of horrible disease.
He had fentanyl in his system.
We still don't know what happened, but in the eyes of public opinion and in these weird Public funerals that we've seen.
I know you don't watch television that much, but I believe George Floyd has had three funerals that have been broadcast on numerous channels.
I mean, this is like a head of state that died.
Well, that's exactly right.
I thought that he should lie in state in the Capitol Rotunda.
He's clearly more important, more significant than Rosa Parks, and Rosa Parks got the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Bill Clinton hung it around her neck.
But, well, and interestingly enough, of course, it's not just the police, it's not just academics, not just journalists who have been swept up in this nonsense.
Don't you have a story for us about a top US general that's wallowing in guilt also?
Ah, you know what?
Let me get that one.
Yes, I do.
It's walking, so this is from Sputnik, walking with President Donald Trump to St.
John's Church in Washington DC on June 1st, For a photo opportunity has turned out to be a huge mistake, said the chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Mark Miley.
He said this just this morning.
He said this, quote, I should not have been there.
My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics.
It was a mistake that I have learned from.
He then went on to say this.
I am outraged by the senseless, brutal killing of George Floyd.
His death amplified the pain, the frustration, and the fear that so many Americans live with.
The protests speak to the long shadow of our original sin in Jamestown.
400 years ago.
Now, just a moment.
He's saying that the military should not be involved in domestic matters,
and now he's telling us about what happened in Jamestown 400 years ago?
That sounds like a domestic matter to me.
That doesn't sound like a foreign enemy.
I, uh...
I think our defense budget is $755 billion a year.
You know, we've got bases all across the world.
We've done all this nation building.
There's, what, 25, 30 million illegal aliens, conservatively, in the country right now.
What is the point of paying taxes for our military if we don't understand that what's happening across the country as businesses are being looted, white people are being beaten, cops are being attacked, Arsons taking place city after city after city.
What is the point of having a military if we don't even care about the oath of office that all military officers and enlisted men take and elected officials to defend the country from enemies both foreign and domestic except for Mr. Taylor.
I think now that whiteness is the ultimate enemy both domestically and It certainly appears to be.
Now, of course, we have another domestic enemy, which is COVID-19.
And I'm sure you were aware of the letter that was published by over 1,000 alleged health professionals.
Some of them seemed really rather obscure and doubtful to me.
But there were these so-called health professionals saying, Don't shut down the protests using coronavirus as an excuse.
As they said, don't worry about people getting or transmitting a potentially deadly disease.
They said, as public health advocates, we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission.
And they say, because it's more important that racism threatens the health of black people in the United States.
That is the greater public health concern than getting and spreading COVID-19.
Now they went on to say, this should not be confused with a permissive stance on all gatherings.
Particularly protests against stay-at-home orders.
Those actions not only oppose public health interventions, but are also rooted in white nationalism.
So, yes, you can go out and give each other this potentially deadly disease if you are protesting racism, which is a deadly disease and which is a public health crisis and catastrophe.
But if you are out protesting a lockdown order that means that you can't make a living.
If you're one of the 40 million people out of work.
Is it now?
I forget.
That's the last number I saw.
If you're one of the 40 million people out of work and you'd like to get back to work.
No, no, no, no, no.
You better not protest because of COVID-19.
But if you are chasing this will-o'-the-wisp This zebra of white brutality, white racism, then get out there, snuggle up, breathe in each other's faces.
COVID-19 is miraculously not going to be a problem if you are gathering for the right purposes.
Now, wasn't that heartwarming?
Stay at home for three months, shut down businesses, destroy mom-and-pop businesses that rely on a steady flow of cash flow, while Amazon stock went from, I think, $1,800 a share to $2,700 a share, up $900 during this crisis.
Walmart, Target, all these big box stores that have supply chain and that can deliver to your home through USPS and UPS and FedEx, they're fine, they're thriving.
They're of course donating tens of millions, in some cases hundreds of millions, to Black Lives Matter causes.
Of course.
PayPal is giving $500 million to Black Lives Matter.
Amazon, Apple, giving $100 million.
All these companies are just bestowing these gifts, these tributes.
Let's call it what it is.
It's tributes to the new religion.
Yes, that's a good word.
It's tribute.
It's tribute.
It's going to be fat and happy days for black activists all around the country.
Boy, oh boy.
I would hate to be in the shoes of some black activist who somehow was overlooked.
Boy, they're going to be angry, aren't they?
While they see their competitors eating beefsteak every day and staying at five-star hotels.
Now, there was something of a semi-good news story from Walmart, was there not?
Oh, this is a great news story.
This comes from Bentonville, Arkansas, which is home of Walmart.
All Sam Walton's pride and joy.
The headline simply reads this.
Walmart to stop keeping multicultural hair care beauty products in locked cases.
Now this is in about a dozen of the 4,700 stores across the country where black beauty Products are kept behind plexiglass.
Lock and key.
You have to actually ask an associate to unlock the case if you're going to purchase one of these items because obviously the algorithms have shown that these are items where a lot of thievery takes place.
People decide not to pay for them.
They just take them out of the store.
So here's what they said.
Walmart, like many companies across the United States, has decided to change its policies to offer more solidarity with their black employees as well as the black community.
After the death of George Floyd, protests obviously erupt across the country demanding racial justice.
So one of the changes that Walmart is making is Here's what the CEO said.
Again, this was all done because somebody tweeted a picture of photos side-by-side that showed hair care products primarily for Caucasians not locked behind glass while those for People of color, black people, warlocked!
The CEO, Doug McMillan, said this, quote, let me say clearly to our black and African American
associates and communities, we hear you, we see you.
I want you to know you are valued.
You are loved members of our family.
We need you to know you're not hurting alone, that I and others are hurting with you, end quote.
Now, even more importantly, Mr. Taylor, they've announced that the Walmart Foundation
is committing a cool $100,000.
$20 million dollars a year.
Through a new center for racial equality, the goal will be to address systematic racism in society head-on and accelerate change.
Now of course this comes as Walmart is looking to actually leave Chicago because of how violent the riots were and the lawlessness that the black mayor allowed to transpire.
Well, you know, I'm struck by the words of the CEO.
We see you.
We hear you.
Well, if they try to prevent them from taking away these hair care products that are no longer under lock and key, he'll be able to say, and we feel you.
We feel your fist in our faces.
But so, yes, I see that now.
Well, I wonder if they will include the pilferage in what they consider their contributions to Black Lives Matter and to racial uplift.
But let's see.
You know, Senator Tom Cotton of Arkansas, he had an interesting adventure with the New York Times.
He was invited by the Times to submit an op-ed piece because he had been... If local police were incapable of maintaining peace, then the military should be sent in.
He was not recommending shoot on sight or anything of the kind, but he just thought that having soldiers on the streets might...
Aid in calming things down.
Well, the very idea that this should be proposed in the pages of the New York Times.
It's an op-ed piece, mind you, and op-eds are supposed to reflect a variety of views.
Opposition in the newsroom was so intense That the Times added an editor's note saying, and I quote, the essay fell short of our standards and should not have been published.
I wonder how it fell short of their standards.
You know, it's an opinion.
It's an opinion expressed by a US Senator, but it fell short of their standards.
But there's worse.
This was not enough.
The editor of the opinion section had to resign because of this.
Now, The Washington Post media columnist, Margaret Sullivan, suggested just last Sunday that it is acceptable for journalists to be activists for civil rights.
It's okay for them to be activists.
So she thinks that this kind of activism in which they are going to suppress an opinion expressed in very moderate terms by a U.S.
Senator, that's just fine.
Then she goes on to ask, What about those journalists whom so many want to criticize as taking on the role of actress?
It's more than acceptable.
They should stand up for civil rights.
She says, after all, we choose what to focus on, what to amplify, what to investigate and examine.
So in effect, she's saying, we're all picking and choosing.
We're all slanting the news.
The idea of objectivity is nonsense.
We're all activists already anyway, so what the heck?
Go ahead and suppress Tom Cotton.
Well, the acting editorial page editor of the New York Times, who has taken the place of the fellow whose judgment fell short of their standards, Kate Kingsley, she wrote, quote, To the entire staff of the New York Times, not just in the editorial section, but the newsroom, everybody.
Probably the janitors got their word too.
Anyone who sees any piece of opinion journalism, including headlines or social posts or photos, you name it, that gives you the slightest pause Please call or text me immediately.
We're going to police the whole organization.
You can all play Stasi.
You can all play censor.
And anything that might give you pause, might give you pause, we will reconsider.
Now, you know, it's funny.
In February 20th of this year, the New York Times published an opinion piece by, wait for this, the deputy leader of the Taliban.
It was called what we the Taliban want.
Well, you'd think that what we the Taliban want is not exactly what the New York Times wants, but they were somehow they had a spasm of Actual adherence to their calling of publishing varying points of view, but US Senator Tom Cotton, no, actually publishing his point of view.
And as I again, let me repeat, it was an opinion that had been solicited from him for this times.
That was absolutely, absolutely terrible.
Well, white people aren't allowed to have opinions unless they are to shame those who continue to be silent about their whiteness and about how to abolish whiteness.
I think that is where we are headed rather quickly.
And that is why the shaming of Tom Cotton's, I thought, a very important essay.
I think that he had a moment where he could have been that hero.
And let's face it, Mr. Taylor, there is a dearth There's an absence of anybody trying to stand up.
President Trump has been a bitter disappointment during this entire crisis.
Well, you know, I'm not even looking for heroes.
I'm looking for people simply to avoid being a coward and a bootlicker and a lickspittle.
That's all I'm looking for.
I don't even need heroes.
I just want men to act a little bit, just a little bit like men.
But that seems to be asking too much.
And along that line of thinking, we must not avoid the fact that in Washington, D.C., prosecutors dropped charges against virtually every person the police brought in on felony rioting charges.
Felony rioting.
I mean, there were a lot of felony rioters, but you know, charges dropped.
Fort Worth police also dropped rioting charges against protesters.
And in Chicago, 1,500 rioters arrested.
Hardly any of them were any facing serious charges.
No, no, no.
Felony rioting, ooh, that might leave a mark.
That might leave a mark on their record.
That might be bad.
And the Dallas police chief said she wasn't going to file criminal charges against more than 600 people who were arrested.
Her name is Renee Hall, by the way.
She is part of this vogue of black lady police chiefs.
And she's the first black lady police chief in the history of Dallas.
Gunslinging Dallas now has a black lady police chief.
Moreover, the Manhattan DA, he is a melanin deprived guy by Cy Vance, he decided not to prosecute protesters for low-level offenses, including unlawful assembly and disorderly conduct.
Well, that was just as well for Chiara de Blasio, the daughter of Mayor Bill de Blasio, because she was facing those very charges.
Are you aware of that?
Of course.
She sneaked out of the house apparently.
Mayor Bill wasn't aware of what she's up to.
She got herself arrested.
But now that the DA is dropping all those charges, she can walk home holding her head high.
And her father says he's very proud of her.
She's a spirited lady who does what she believes in.
Here's a question for you, based on all those cities you just mentioned.
Do you believe that the era of gentrification is over and that we're about to see a lot of businesses, especially those businesses that weren't franchises, that had popped up to serve this gentrifying community in a lot of these major cities, they're just going to shut down.
And we're going to see real estate prices, both commercial and residential, Severely and significantly impacted all across the country.
Well, you know, I hadn't thought about that, but it's certainly true that not just the mom and pop stores, but even the big boxes, they're going to pull out.
We had an article at the Amran website by a fellow who is a retail expert.
He spent several decades, high level in big box stores.
And he said, you don't actually have to have your store looted.
But if you see things going on around you, if the neighborhood is declining,
if you find that you have a customer population with very, very high rates of theft
and that buy mostly commodities and none of the discretionary items
like clothes and cosmetics, which are high profit items,
they're gonna move out even if they weren't hit.
The ones that are hit, bye-bye.
But they don't even have to be hit.
When they see what's happening around them, they can't take that risk.
They got too many sunk costs.
So they're gonna move out.
Mom and Papa's gonna move out.
The local shishi restaurants, all of these kind of yuppie establishments
that young white people, these hipsters love, So you could very well be right.
This could put a screeching, bring a screeching halt to gentrification, but black lives matter and black people will be happy, won't they, to see their neighborhoods go downhill again.
Isn't that what it's all about in a way?
That is.
It's about getting rid of whites.
Remember something we talked about back in God, it feels like a year ago.
It was only a couple months ago where the Atlanta mayor was trying to make gentrification illegal because too many white people were moving in and raising the property values in some of these areas that had been black for five, six decades after, of course, Integration or segregation ended and white flight happened so these communities where property values had had languished white people moving in magically they start to rise and you would think that blacks would be happy about that because their prior when the community was all black their property wasn't that valuable now all of a sudden
Yeah, they have to pay some more in property taxes, but they could sell and probably make five, six, seven, sometimes ten times what the house was valued when it was all black area.
Well, you know, I guess Keisha Bottoms, the mayor, she's not going to have to pass any new laws because, you know, you burn down a couple of hipster and yuppie restaurants and gentrification will go into reverse.
You're right.
And the whole COVID-19 crisis, which we forget about, you know, today we saw where the powers that be, the elite are saying, oh my gosh, we're seeing a second wave come in.
And of course the markets are spooked.
It's actually very bad what's happening right now, because I think we're going to see an acceleration of job loss again, because of this idea that COVID-19 has, the China virus, whatever you want to call it, is coming back with a second wave.
And you know, when you were talking about what the health officials said, A lot of this is due to these massive riots that we saw, and the lack of social distancing, because there was a general zeal in going out and looting and stealing stuff, the five-finger discount.
As you noted, in all these cities, the DAs are just saying, you know what, you guys had fun, it was a victory riot, no charges.
And now COVID-19 is coming back, and so we're going to see the middle class once again hit hard.
And these areas that need the tax revenue, Mr. Taylor, from these businesses being open, there's going to be massive ramifications for a city like New York City that is losing its tax base and doesn't have this sales tax coming in.
How are they going to pay for anything?
The message could not be clearer.
Protesting racial injustice is far more important than having a viable economy.
It's far more important than getting unemployed millions of people back to work.
Protesting racial injustice is far more important than preventing the spread of this disease, which, up until George Floyd, was apparently priority number one for the entire country.
You're absolutely right.
But as soon as race rears its, I won't say ugly head, that might sound dismissive, rears its beautiful head, then everything gets turned upside down.
But let's move along to some of the other consequences of the rioting, and that is murders and shootings in New York.
...leapt in numbers last week compared to the same period last year, law enforcement sources explain, because the confusion of the rioting from last Monday to Sunday night.
There were 13 murders in the city compared to five killings the same week last year.
And the city reported the most in a single week since 2015.
And this, of course, is because the police were so much distracted looking after the demonstrators.
So, when the cat is away, the mice will play.
Likewise in Chicago, Chicago was roiled by yet another day of protests and looting in the wake of the killing of George Floyd.
And 18 people were killed in a single day, May 31st, making it the single most violent day in Chicago in 60 years.
Once again, police resources had been stretched very thin because of protests and looting.
Cats away, mice play.
And the next highest total for a murder in a single day, as I say it was 18, that was August 4th, 1991.
You got to go back to 1991 when 13 people were killed in Chicago.
And of course, our melanin-enhanced mayor of Chicago, Lori Lightfoot.
She was the one who famously defied her own curfew to go get a haircut because the mayor's got to look sharp, you know.
She was on a phone conversation with some of the aldermen, which was recorded, and she actually cursed out one of the aldermen Who had pointed out just how violent things were.
She started speaking in ways that we would not want our children to hear, but she's the mayor of the third largest city in the United States.
And if you take the entire weekend, stretching from 7 p.m.
Friday until 11 p.m.
Sunday, 25 people were killed and another 85 wounded by the police, 25 dead.
And remember, last year, Only nine unarmed blacks died at the hands of the police.
Well, in a single weekend, blacks killed 25 of their own and wounded another 85.
Now, I cannot promise you that every single casualty was a black person.
This may be a deep prejudice on my part, but I suspect that's the case.
It's actually not.
There's a great website called HeyJackass, which documented all this.
And you can actually see an article in the Chicago Tribune, maybe the Chicago Sun-Times, All the pictures of those murdered this past weekend that you mentioned, they were all black.
So you can actually see the images and Well, you and I know the data.
The Chicago Police, once Mayor Rahm Emanuel took over back in 2012 as the mayor, they discontinued putting out their comprehensive report on criminality.
So, of who actually did the shooting, the race of the shooters, not just the victim, but the suspect.
Chicago had an amazing report.
Yes, I agree.
All the photographs I saw were of our African-American fellow citizens, but I couldn't find a photograph of every single victim.
But my guess is, If there had been a white choir director or a white stockbroker who had got caught in the crossfire, we'd have heard about it.
But there was no such news.
Anyway, moving on to St.
Louis.
Over the weekend, while the rioting was going on, 21 people were shot, six fatally.
This too, this too, was quite a leap compared to usual weekends.
And the press goes on trying to add detail of some kind.
Never.
Racial detail.
But they say some of whom were shot to death inside vehicles, while others were killed in the street and or in alleys.
Well, that's good to know.
But who is doing the shooting?
That remains clouded in obscurity.
And of course, in Los Angeles, homicides the first week of June during the height of the rioting were up 250% over the previous week.
That was a tweet from the LAPD bringing out these figures.
250%!
Well, you know, George Floyd, he'd be proud, I think.
He did not die in vain.
He did not die in vain.
Black lives matter, they sure do.
Now, of course, what's the response to all of this?
Defund the police.
Now, we won't go into the whole history of this crazy, crazy cuckoo idea, but I must say Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, who has been an idiot, it seems to me, start to finish, and I think he gave what must be one of the most humiliating orders since, I don't know, the Battle of Savoy Bay, when we lost tons and tons of American naval shipping to the Japanese.
The most humiliating defeat in a long, long time, when he ordered The police in a police precinct abandoned their building entirely to the mob.
In any case, Mayor Jacob Frey showed that he has at least one vertebra, I would say.
I wouldn't grant him an entire spinal cord.
He has one vertebra.
Because protests marched to his home.
And they insisted he come out and speak.
And they insisted that he promise to disband the police.
Well, Jacob Frye, he's all for restructuring the police, but, you know, he's not a complete idiot, and he said, no, no, he does not plan to entirely disband the police.
So they chanted, go home, Jacob, go home!
And shame!
They shouted him, they shouted him absolutely off the podium, and he slunk back into his house.
Now, I think it's fascinating.
I think it's delightful.
That these liberals who think they're God's gift to humanity are actually having crowds show up at their houses yelling at them.
Yes, those are exactly the people whose houses they should surround and yell at.
But the 38-year-old mayor who was sworn into office in 2018 is the second youngest in the city's history.
And he used to be an employment civil rights lawyer before taking office, and one of his key issues was police reform.
So people are asking him to do what he promised to do, but he won't go far enough and fire them all.
But after all, one outfit that in effect has fired itself is the COPS program, right?
Yeah, you know, going back just real quick, it is fascinating to think, do white liberals who are championing all of this, the Black Lives Matter, all these companies paying tribute, they want to see more and more black representation.
So all these white CEOs, don't they realize that they're gonna have to step down soon once the board gets less white and they vote in all these initiatives?
You know, I saw, I think, where Adidas and Reebok said that they're going to make 30% of their new hires black.
That's grossly disproportionate, and I feel like there's a lot of lawsuits that are on the cusp here.
If people are smart and they say, wow, this is just blanket discrimination.
You saw what Uber did.
Uber is now giving free delivery from black businesses, which seems like it would be from black restaurants.
Uber Eats or DoorDash, one of those companies.
So you would think that there'd be a lot of opportunity here for some enterprising people, especially business owners, to say, wait a second, why do they get this preferential treatment?
You know, because it's obviously politically expedient at the moment, so.
Well, just making up for black, for white privilege, you know.
If there's enough black privilege, then we live, that's leveling the playing field.
But yeah, you know, something like that, it really makes you realize if Uber Or DoorDash, whichever one it was, is now going out of its way to give free service to blacks.
Free service to blacks.
Well, just the way, after all, in Kentucky, Kentucky's supposed to be a conservative state, but the governor's come out and said that he's going to make a special point to make sure that blacks get social services.
Yeah, health care.
Well, now see, this is just one of so many things.
This at least half a billion dollars is going to be splashed out to these black activist organizations.
And white people just bowing down and worshiping.
There's a new declaration of faith.
It's probably practically a new Apostles' Creed that white people repeat when black people stand there with megaphones.
You've seen videos of that, of course.
You know, hundreds of people, white people on their knees, while a black man or black woman tells them to repeat this,
that, and the other about how bad white people are, etc. Well, anyway, the message from this
really, I think the most important message is that violence works.
Yeah.
I mean, if you burn enough buildings, you get what you want.
And when you think about it, if blacks had seen the video of George Floyd's death and just quietly waited for the process to work, there's going to be investigation, indictment, a trial, and a verdict.
I mean, let's face it, that's what white people did when a black Minneapolis policeman shot and killed an unarmed white woman, Justine DeMond.
That's a civilized thing to do.
But if Blacks and their white allies had done the civilized thing, they wouldn't have this half a billion dollars.
You know, there wouldn't be public monuments to white men being torn down all over the country.
There wouldn't be white people on their knees.
There wouldn't be any of that.
So white violence, I mean, I'm sorry, violence works.
Only for blacks.
Only for blacks.
Because was there not a situation in which white people who were prepared to defend their property, who were armed, they weren't violent, but they might actually have become violent if someone attacked them or attacked their property.
They were the subjects of all kinds of denunciation by the Washington State Police, were they not?
Yeah, they were.
They were.
And this is a situation in Snohomish.
The police chief was replaced on Monday following a week of mounting tension over how he handled a rumored but unrealized threat that Antifa activists planned to riot and damage storefronts in the community.
Now, this is a town, it's a city of about 10,000 near the Cascade foothills.
Had come to light early last week as citizens armed with semi-automatic weapons and, can you believe this, in Washington State they were displaying Confederate flags?
They gathered in the city's historic downtown.
They clashed with protesters who, many of whom had been holding nightly demonstrations against, quote, racial injustice and the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police.
The armed demonstrators, including many members of right-wing groups, according to interviews with group members, and many had been drinking.
They had been imbibing alcohol while carrying the weapons on May 31st.
So what ends up happening is Keith Rogers, who now is the former police chief of Snohomish, faced steep criticism for not taking the armed crowd's presence more seriously.
He described the evening as festive.
So how dare You know, how dare business owners, concerned citizens gather together to try and stop the looting that we saw all across the country in Atlanta and Minneapolis, etc.
Well, tell me something.
You say they clashed with demonstrators.
What exactly happened?
Did they yell at each other?
I'm sure they didn't open fire with their .223s.
There was no shooting.
You know, there are some videos showing punches and striking at least one teenager who had joined a protest against police misconduct and another protester said he was pushed to the ground where two people then choked and hit him.
No video evidence to support any of that claim.
Again, the point is that we are seeing this idea that how dare white people even think that they have the right to defend their property, their homes, their businesses.
We've all seen the video from Rochester where the blacks are trying to loot this store and this woman is attacked and her husband, a white woman is attacked and her husband runs out demanding they stop.
I mean, it's supine, it's capitulation, it's surrender, it's racial acquiescence.
Well, it's very clear.
Violence works.
If it's black violence, but the threat of the possibility of white violence, even in defense of their own property, that is to be condemned.
