The Great White Hate Criminal?
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the latest episode of Radio Renaissance.
It's March 18th, the year of our Lord, 2021.
I'm Jared Taylor with American Renaissance.
And today, the press was all a twitter at the idea that it might have tracked down the great white hate criminal.
I'm speaking, of course, about Robert Long, the 21-year-old who killed eight people, six of whom were Asian women.
Oh, the bells go off as soon as a white man kills somebody who's not white.
Oh boy, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!
But the media, of course, can't stop telling us that he's white, and he says he didn't kill these women on account of any kind of anti-Asian sentiment.
He says he's a sex addict.
And it turns out he was at one time in something called the Maverick Recovery, a rehab facility in Roswell, Georgia, where a former roommate says he was being treated for sex addiction.
I should have pointed out that these ladies he killed, along with two other people who remain apparently more or less unidentified, were working at massage parlors.
In any case, the roommate at the rehab center says that Long was, quote, a deeply religious person.
He would often go on tangents about his interpretation of the Bible.
And apparently, he was distressed about his addiction to sex.
The roommate says it was something that absolutely would torment him.
And police say that he may himself have actually patronized some of these massage parlors where he opened fire.
I guess he gave in to his addiction.
And I think it's pretty well known that at joints like that in the massage business, for an extra tip, you get what is called a happy ending.
Well, at home, he got on his family's nerves because he spent hours on end watching online pornography.
He may, in fact, have been kicked out of his parents' house the very night before he went on the rampage.
As some police reports have emphasized, he told the cops arrested him that he'd had a bad day.
Maybe he was talking about having been booted.
In any case, according to the police, this Robert Long says that the spas are a temptation.
He wanted to eliminate them.
He says that he thought about killing himself, but decided instead he would help others with their sexual addiction by targeting these spas and making sure that they were eliminated and were not available for those who had the same temptations as himself.
So, clearly this guy is just a religious nut with a heart on, but the media are trying very, very hard to turn him into a white supremacist.
The press are going great guns about these poor dead Asian ladies, and I feel very sorry for them, but there's hardly a word at all about the other two people who have said they've died.
They don't get names.
They don't get profiles.
It seems like they don't even exist.
Are they white?
Are they Hispanic?
Are they male?
Female?
Something in between?
We don't seem to know.
So the headlines, of course, USA Today, its big headline was, Hate Crime?
The Washington Post, they said, they have a headline, The Long Ugly History of Anti-Asian Racism and Violence in the U.S.
New York Times says fears of rising anti-Asian hate.
In the U.S., it's all hate, hate, hate.
L.A.
Times, rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans.
Chicago Tribune says Asian Americans are being attacked across the U.S.
during pandemic, so why are hate crime charges so rare?
Oh, it's hate, hate, hate!
Despite the fact that, according to all evidence, this guy didn't care about the fact they were Asians.
They were just people who were tempting him and people who were making his addiction worse.
Well, you know, the Chicago Tribune article, the one about why are hate crime charges so rare, it almost answers the own question rather obliquely.
It points out that many of the blacks who have been attacked lately and who have been told that they were the source of the COVID, they're bad, they're awful, that this many of their attackers are non-white and these Asians who've been attacked they're afraid that if they turn them over the police and ask for hate crime charges that they will be mistreated because they are poor oppressed people of color.
So that's one of the reasons the Asians apparently they think, oh my gosh, they believe what they read in the newspaper.
If this Hispanic guy, this black guy who punched him in the face and said, go back to China, gets turned over for a hate crime, that the white police would just abuse the poor little fellow.
So that's one of the reasons why they are not charged with hate crimes.
And of course, as you know, Just a week or two ago, there was a string of hate crimes, or certainly assaults, on blacks in the San Francisco Bay Area.
And every single one that had been recorded, as far as I can tell, there were videos of some of them, really quite brutal, utterly unprovoked attacks.
These old 78 80-year-old black Asian guys, Asian guys, just being slammed into.
One guy was knocked over so hard he ended up dying.
And so, of course, they organized demonstrations in New York City and in the Bay Area to fight against this anti-Asian violence.
And who was the main enemy?
Why, white supremacy.
It was white supremacy that was tricking and manipulating these black people into attacking Asians, and it was white supremacy that was tricking and manipulating Asians into thinking that, well, black people had attacked them.
So, it's all the fault of white people.
In any case, again, as I say, white guy pulls the trigger, and oh boy, the alarm bells go off.
We're on the hunt for white supremacy.
You know, it was 11 years ago, almost that Omar Thornton went on his shooting
spree where he targeted his former white employees, killing, I believe, six,
seven, maybe eight number doesn't ring a bell.
He had a white girlfriend.
Turns out that he had been fired, but he targeted people for discrimination, Mr.
Taylor.
And I remember some of the initial stories actually tried to look into.
The history of the white people he killed to see if his claim of discrimination
and prejudice that he faced at work actually had merit and.
And I think Steve Saylor had the best line.
He said, so if it turns out that the dead white bodies actually were bigots, do we have to exhume the bodies and put another bolt in their head?
Well, no, at the very least, we give the guy an acquittal, you know.
There you go!
They deserve to die, so he's okay.
Was that the guy who worked in the beer loading factory?
That's him.
That's the guy, yes.
There's so many of these, they begin to blur in your mind.
But yes, the other big story today has to do with George Floyd and his happy family.
The city of Minneapolis on Friday agreed to pay them $27 million to settle a civil lawsuit stemming from his death in police custody as jury selection continues in the criminal trial of Derek Chauvin.
The members of the Minneapolis City Council met privately to discuss the settlement and then returned to public session for a unanimous vote in support of this unprecedented and massive payout.
It certainly surpasses the 20 million dollars the city approved two years ago to the family of Justine Damond.
Our listeners may remember Justine Daymond was a white lady who heard some disturbance
in a back alley behind her apartment.
She called the police.
The police came and she went down, still in her pajamas, utterly unarmed, of course, but
the police had turned off their lights so as not to give themselves away.
They drove right by her and she sort of tapped on the car.
And a black officer, their pride and joy, their first Somali officer who should have
been washed out many times during police training, but they couldn't wash out their first pride
and joy, fair-haired lad, Somali officer.
He shoots across the... He's in the passenger seat, and the lady's on the driver's side.
The guy who's driving it isn't worried.
He shoots across the car.
Yeah.
And shoots are dead!
Pretty deliberate action against a woman that a jury decided was not a threat at all.
That guy, that black officer, is in the big house on murder charges.
But in this case, for some reason, for some reason, Justin Damon's family got only $20 million compared to $27 million.
I guess black lives do matter.
Black lives only do matter, but you remember that the American press barely covered that story.
She was Australian.
In Australia, wasn't she engaged to an American?
Yes, she was.
Yes, she was.
She was here and you saw these wonderful pictures of her smiling and her American fiancé.
It took months and months and months, actually, to indict these guys.
The folks in the case with George Floyd, they were indicted practically overnight.
No, the whole situation has been completely, completely different for the reasons we understand perfectly well.
In any case, As far as this payout is concerned, the Floyd family attorney, Ben Crump.
Good old Ben Crump.
You know, wherever there's money, wherever there's black and white, you'll find Ben Crump.
Benny on the spot.
Do you think he's on a flight down to Atlanta to go to some of these massage parlors and see if there's an opportunity here?
I suspect not.
I think they're gonna say, Mr. Crump, we don't need you.
In any case, he called it the largest pretrial settlement ever for a civil rights claim.
And he thanked the city leaders for, quote, showing you care about George Floyd.
Oh, they care.
They care so deeply.
And in fact, in fact, City Council President Lisa Bender, she choked up.
She was in tears as she addressed a news conference about the settlement, saying that she knew no amount of money could bring Floyd back.
What a, what a, what a, what a tragedy.
Now the settlement, and you will hear, you will let us know perhaps some of the reasoning behind this later on, Mr. Kersey, but the settlement includes half a million dollars for the South Minneapolis neighborhood that includes 38th and Chicago, the intersection where St.
George met his untimely end.
It's been blocked by barricades since his death.
The police aren't allowed inside.
There's a massive metal sculpture.
There are murals in his honor.
Now, the city didn't explain just why the neighborhood gets the money.
I mean, it's not as though he fell into a hole in the sidewalk.
What's the neighborhood got to do with this?
But is it compensation for being blocked by barricades?
Well, but Mr. Kersey, I hope, will enlighten us in just a moment.
Now, the suit of course had claimed a culture of, this is the civil suit, that Ben Crump was intimately involved in.
It says that the city had allowed a culture of excessive force, racism, and impunity to flourish.
Well, I guess it must have the tune of $27 million per head for somebody who gets some of this excessive force.
Now, the trial that's going on, opening statements are scheduled for March 29th.
I think I may make the time to tune in because this is being televised.
It's going to be a really interesting thing.
You know, you might want to even go back and think about, especially for younger audiences who weren't aware of just the enormity of the O.J.
Simpson trial back in 1995 and how that captured the country because obviously The approval rating for Black Lives Matter and for George Floyd.
The question is, do you believe George Floyd was murdered?
Yeah, we'll get to that.
We'll definitely get to that.
It would be fun to go back, Mr. Taylor, and maybe do a video or do something, maybe a big article, maybe Gregory Hood.
Someone could do a great article reminding people about what it was like when OJ, you know, because Ann Coulter famously said white guilt died with the OJ verdict.
Oh, no, she's totally wrong.
Sorry, Miss Coulter.
I think we see with the George Floyd insanity, Although I do recommend everybody head over to Amarin.com and read the latest Pat Buchanan column.
It's one of his best in years, where he just lays it on the line about George Floyd and the fentanyl overdose.
Which, as you note, once that trial starts, it's all fair game.
Well, trials are remarkable things.
A well-conducted trial brings all the relevant evidence out and the jury is told to examine it.
Surprising things can happen.
Now, the trial jury selection has been going on and on and on because this is a hugely important under-the-microscope case.
It takes a long time to select jurors.
They've just gotten to juror number 10.
And I found an article today that so far they have five people of color and five people of no color at all.
So, so far it's a 50-50 break.
The potential jurors identities are being protected.
They are not shown on the live streamed video of the proceedings.
I think it's a great idea to have this televised.
This, I think, is maybe the first trial in Minnesota history that's going to be televised live.
Unfortunately, and this seems a little bit bad, but the defense has not said whether Chauvin will testify in his own defense.
It always makes a bad impression if the defendant does not testify in his own defense.
I hope that he will tell what happened, explain what he was thinking, what he did, and why.
But we'll see.
But yes, on to this question of what does the American public think about guilt and innocence.
Last June, last June, 60% of people in a USA Today and Ipsos poll found that George Floyd's death was murder.
60%.
Now, in the meantime, now that percentage has dropped to 36%.
A minority.
But, not surprisingly, there is a considerable racial difference.
Nearly two-thirds of blacks, 64%, say Floyd was murdered.
Only 28% of whites feel that way.
So the makeup of the jury could have an impact.
In any case, Americans who have heard at least something about Chauvin's trial say 4-1.
60% to 15% that they hope he's convicted.
Now this is a little bit baffling when you find that only 36% think that he's guilty of murder but 60% want him convicted.
I suspect that means they want a peaceful life because they know what's going to happen if he is found innocent.
Yeah, wasn't there a great article at MREN that detailed the precautions Minneapolis is There was.
We had a Chris Roberts photo essay.
Quite remarkable.
All the things that, oh boy, oh boy, they are ready for World War III, and they will get it if there's an acquittal.
We forget also what happened across the country, including Washington, D.C., in the lead-up to the election.
I think we're going to start seeing, as we get closer and closer to trial, and a lot of these insurance companies begin to say, hey, let's start taking some precautions here in Chicago, and in Atlanta, and in Nashville, and in Charlotte, and New York City.
I think we're going to start seeing more and more barricades start to go up.
You know, I think if the local authorities are paying attention to the trial and, as I say, the opening statements will be very interesting, the closing arguments are likely to be very interesting too.
If I can take time off to watch both those, I think I will do that because opening statements, closing arguments are excellent Praise these excellent resumes of what the evidence is supposed to show and then afterwards after the evidence has come out what we are to conclude from the evidence.
But in any case, there have been changes in the way people feel like Black Lives Matter.
Compared to June of 2020, Blacks, American Blacks, trust Black Lives Matter a little bit less.
Support has fallen by 12 points.
And trust in local police has risen by 14 points.
So at the height of all this roaring and whooping and prancing and yowling, things seemed a little bit different.
Among white respondents, trust in Black Lives Matter has fallen, and local police trust has risen also.
Now, and this to me is one of the most important things that shows up in these surveys.
The percentage of people who say race relations have worsened in the United States over the past year is four times the number who say they've improved.
40% versus 13%.
Among blacks, the gap's even wider.
54% say race relations are worse, and just 10% believe they are better.
So all this roaring about race certainly doesn't make people think that things are improving.
And I think you could very well argue that they are not improving.
That's certainly the impression that is received by the American public.
Mr. Kersey, I believe you're going to tell us some of the excitement that's going on in what has now been renamed George Floyd Square in the heart of Minneapolis.
You alluded to the heart, man.
The beating heart.
You mentioned 38th Street and Chicago Avenue.
That's now known as George Floyd Square or the Autonomous Zone.
And there was a revealing article in the Star Tribune, which is the Minneapolis Star Tribune, published on March 15th.
You know, Beware the Ides of March?
Well, guess what, folks?
On that day, we had a startling piece with this title, Near George Floyd Square, Revolution by Day, Devolution by Night.
The neighbors surrounding the site of George Floyd's death in South Minneapolis are asking for prayers and help.
I saw this story and I thought, this can't be.
This has to be some spoof website.
There's no way they're going to do anything to denigrate the memory of this individual who, you know, go back to last year when they desecrated the Robert E. Lee statue in Richmond on Monument Avenue.
What did they do?
They put George Floyd's image with some sort of laser device or some sort of light device on that statue.
So much has come down.
So much of our history is being erased.
So many of our monuments have been displaced all over the sky.
As you mentioned, what's about to happen in Minneapolis, we know there's this massive
trial, we know all this is happening, but at the heart of where this all took place,
where a Black Fist statue, the Black Power, Black Lives Matter fist was raised, well,
life seems to be giving a quite different impression of whether or not Black Lives Matter,
Well, it's probably got a lot to do with the black fist in your face.
You know, it's like the Joe Louis statue in Detroit.
People are always wondering why, you know, why this statue is there.
It was put up, you know, once blacks took over, back in 1973.
But my point is this, you've got Minneapolis, you've got this black power, Black Lives Matter, fist up.
Here's what the story says.
As neighbors of 38th Street in Chicago, We are witnessing a revolution by day and devolution by night.
Prayer gatherings cancelled, rallies cancelled, visitors arriving with flowers in hand only to retreat to their cars when greeted by the sound of gunshots.
So you mentioned that this this area is completely, completely, it's got fences and it's got, you know, police things don't cross and stuff.
But the police didn't set them up.
The police didn't set them up, exactly.
It's the people in the area, they don't want them coming there.
But again, you have so many well-wishers who, again, they believe that Chauvin maliciously murdered this guy.
They believe, remember a couple weeks ago, we talked about how white liberals think,
what was it, 10,000 blacks are murdered a year by police?
In that study.
What is it, less than about 20?
Yeah, 19, 18, depending on the year.
But you got all these people who are basically going on these pilgrimages, these crusades,
to go put flowers down.
And what happens?
They sprint to their car because of gunshots.
They can't even go there.
Neighbors ducking for cover behind our houses, children in tow.
The spiritual health of our community, the feeling of being connected to something larger than ourselves, is collapsing.
So, it now has an account.
I encourage you all to go just Google this story near George Floyd Square, Revolution by Day, Devolution by Night, because the author of this piece basically gives a line-by-line story of what it was like Over 10 days.
So here we go.
Here's an account of some of the events of the past 10 days on one block adjacent to George Floyd Square, where police are met by hostile groups when responding to our repeated, repeated is the key word there, 911 calls.
March 6, 5.54 p.m.
A 30-year-old volunteer is killed in the zone by gunshot.
People in the zone are seen picking up shell casings and throwing them into city garbage, loading the gunshot victim into a car to drive him to a hospital.
Now, Mr. Taylor, I've heard every day about this assault on the Capitol, how awful things were, and yet, as you and I have discussed over the past 10 months, you had autonomous zones set up in Seattle, where someone was murdered, where a black kid was murdered.
You had the autonomous zone in Portland, where for scores For multiple fortnights you had the Federal Building assaulted.
You go back to the Memorial Day when they tried to break into CNN Center and the reporters were running around scared to death on air as this massive crowd is outside lobbying projectiles into the lobby as they're trying to get in.
The police are protecting them.
Now we have this account of what life is like about 10 months, less than 10 months, after George Floyd's sainthood.
Here's what it's like.
At 820 p.m.
on March 6th.
Neighbors call 911 again as multiple shots ring out.
Children, listen.
March 7th.
Six garages along our alley are hit by gunfire, one with its owner inside.
A car crashes through a fence into a family's backyard.
An 18-month-old had been playing by the fence minutes earlier.
5 p.m.
on March 7th.
30 shots hit cars and the windows and siding of at least one house.
Narrowly missing residents watching television.
Parents and children out biking and walking on a sunny day duck behind houses.
Children watch bullets kicking up dust in the street.
A zone leader visits a bullet-riddled house to confront the family, while others from the zone are observed once again picking up shell casings behind her.
I wonder if they're gonna, what, use those casings again and make their own bullets?
Bullets are pretty expensive right now.
I don't know.
Alright, we'll do one more day.
March 8th, 2.30pm.
Here's life in the George Floyd Autonomous Zone, ladies and gentlemen.
Multiple shots fired, a man is photographed perched atop Cup Foods with an assault rifle.
Assault rifle?
With an assault rifle and a tripod.
Children cry.
Zone medics are offered to visit neighbors and provide mental health support to those being traumatized.
All this in the name of George Floyd and that all in the shadow of Mr. Taylor, Of that black-powered fist, Black Lives Matter.
And that enormous mural.
Here we go again.
9.50 p.m.
30 shots ring out.
A person complains to a neighbor that the neighbor has parked too close to the person's car.
A zone occupant with no connection to the other parties fires multiple shots into the neighbor's car and house.
The neighbor, a military veteran, is in the driver's seat and recognizes an assault rifle with a 30-round clip.
The shooter walks back into the zone.
Four police squads Caravan through and meet the neighbor nearby.
10-16, a second 9-1-1 call provides a description of the shooter who remains in the area, appearing to wait for some target.
Police have just received a call about a teen and about a teen and adult shot two miles away.
Resources exhausted, the police do not respond to our call.
The shooter in the zone walks away.
Oh, well, walks away.
There you go.
Well, you know, it sounds as though this is some kind of Asylum area.
The police are not allowed in there.
If you can escape, then it's a get-out-of-jail-free card.
So this goes on for a little bit longer, but I do want to read the last note on March 8th at 1045 p.m.
I think you'll particularly enjoy this one, Mr. Taylor, and dear listeners around the world, we thank you because this one's for you.
Third 9-1-1 call of the night.
As some neighbors are picking up shell casings, people near the fist statue in the zone repeatedly yell, quote, get the F out of here, unquote.
Then a gun is fired from near the fist statue.
Four men come out of the zone to tell the neighbors they, quote, weren't shooting at you, end quote.
Oh, well, you know, go back to sleep.
No problem.
We're not shooting at you.
Our aim is bad, so no telling where the bullets will go, but we're not shooting at you.
Well, OK, that makes me feel a whole lot better.
Well, you know, it certainly hasn't turned out the way we thought.
I was thinking, you know, that there were going to be people who would claim that they had touched the hem of George Floyd's shirt and had been miraculously cured of cancer.
It doesn't seem to be happening that way.
It seems to be rather a curse on the neighborhood and hardly a blessing that we'd expect from a man who has been canonized.
But anyway, that story's hard to top, Tom.
And we're going to move on to Berea College, where this will be something of a letdown, I'm afraid, because all we had at Berea College was an event hosted yesterday called White Citizenship as Terrorism.
It was organized by the Women's and Gender Nonconforming Center.
Nice to know that Berea has got a Women's and Gender Nonconforming Center, a whole center for it.
There was a presentation by Amy Branzell.
She's the author of Against Citizenship, The Violence of the Normative.
Against Citizenship.
She goes on to say... The Normative, okay.
Against the Violence of the Normative.
Well, norms are violent, you know, if you're abnormal.
It provocatively shows that there is nothing redeemable about citizenship, nothing worth salvaging or sustaining in the name of community, practice, or belonging.
Citizenship is just a bad, bad, bad, bad thing.
So, in other words, it's another way of explaining, you know, open borders, let them all in.
Now, according to her, citizenship is a violent, dehumanizing mechanism that makes the comparative devaluing of human lives seem commonsensical, logical, and even necessary.
Did you realize that?
You've been tricked into thinking that it's something good.
Citizenship is not something that is dehumanizing.
Anyway, she is an assistant professor of American Studies and Women's Studies at the University of New Mexico, and her online bio describes her as follows.
She works across the connections and contradictions within feminism, GLBT queer, post-colonial, and critical race theories on identity, citizenship, law, history, and knowledge production.
Sounds like hard work.
What did she want to be when she grew up?
Well, I don't know.
Knowledge production.
You know, is that like Bitcoin mining?
What is knowledge production?
In any case, she says, well, the lecture began with Professor Branzel saying that she is a white settler who lives on unseated Pueblo, Navajo, and Apache land.
Unseated?
Unseated?
I mean, this must be an example of knowledge production.
In any case, the college, Berea College, is just standing behind this, absolutely four square.
They tweeted this out.
To some, the provocative title of the event implies that Berea is not a welcoming place.
That's the name of the university.
For individuals with differing political views, that's not true.
At Berea, we strive to live out our motto, God hath made of one blood all peoples of the earth.
Now, that's a bit of an idiotic non-sequitur, really.
But they're quoting the Bible, so oh boy, you can't argue with that.
That is from Acts.
17.
Now let me quote the rest of the of the verse.
The whole one, the whole verse goes this way.
And he has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on the face of the earth and has determined their pre-appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings.
The boundaries of their dwellings.
That sounds like citizenship to me.
It does.
Doesn't that sound like citizenship?
Well, anyway, they are true to their motto, and they're going to let her say that white citizenship is terrorism.
I guess everybody else's citizenship is okay, but ours is terrorism.
And now I think it is quite interesting the way, since the talk of reparations has become such an exciting and absorbing topic of conversation, people are, on the local basis, trying to implement it.
Last week, the Oregon State Legislature held hearings on two Senate bills that would have the state study paying reparations to, as it says, African-American Oregonians who can trace their ancestry to slavery.
Well, this, and if you qualify, you would get a jackpot in the form of $123,000 in annuity payments annually for your
life.
And the Republicans estimate the plan would cost the state, guess what?
Okay, okay, hold on, hold on.
Go back.
$11.8 trillion.
It's how much per year?
Well, you see, I don't quite know whether it is $123,000 over your lifetime.
I think that's probably what it is.
But in any case, I guess it's like when you win the jackpot in the lottery and say it's $500 million, you can get a certain amount of money over a certain amount of time, or you can get the whole business and get it taxed that year.
In any case, the Republicans figure that there are enough African-American Oregonians who can trace their ancestors to slavery that it would cost $11.8 trillion, not a small sum.
And just as is happening at the border with this swarm of illegals now coming to Biden's office, they say it will cause an influx of people to move to the state in hoping to get in on yet more reparations.
What do you know?
You get more of what you reward.
Oregon is what, 4% black if that?
4.6% black.
And Oregon famously was a state that I believe barred Negroes from being citizens or being even able to go to the
state.
Back at the time when the Constitution was being established,
they voted down the idea of being a slave state.
But by an even larger majority, they voted to ban Negroes, free or slave, from coming into the state at all.
That sounds probably about... No, I'm not sure Oregon was a state at the time of the Civil War.
I'm not sure it was.
It was after the United States.
You're right, Dave.
The officers said after the United States, Dave.
Let's see.
No slaves, no blacks.
Yes.
So that's the story in Oregon.
Now, Evanston, Illinois.
is maybe going to go one better.
They are a Chicago northern suburb.
They could be the first city in the United States to give reparations to its black residents.
They're really trying hard.
Now, it's going to make amends for the city's past redlining policies along with other housing discrimination initiatives that reportedly were oppressing blacks until about a half century ago.
Evanston passed its very own municipal fair housing ordinance in 1969.
So, according to this little plan, if you were a black resident between 1919 and 1969, or can claim that your parents or grandparents were, you could be eligible to receive a $25,000 check.
Now, that can be towards home ownership, either get money to buy a house, pay your mortgage, or make home improvements.
Now, I don't understand why you can't spend it on lap dances.
I want to know why not.
Well, for some.
And discrimination is discrimination.
Why can't you use the money as you choose?
Now, you know where to get the money for this?
They're gonna get it from a 3% tax on marijuana sales.
So it ain't gonna cost the city a dime.
This was, this little, this is the brainchild of Robin Rue Simmons, an Evanston alder woman.
And I expected her to be one of these hopped up, melanin-deprived shrews, but she is African-American.
She says it will help rebuild wealth that was stripped away due to predatory practices.
And she hopes that this is a model that can be exported to other cities.
Well, gosh, who could be opposed?
Who could think this is a bad idea?
Why?
Why black people?
Of course.
And what's the problem?
It's not enough.
Of course.
What else could you object to?
There's an activist group in town that says that the reparations in their current form are racist.
Hmm.
Evanston Rejects Racist Reparations is the name of the group and it was set up by Sebastian Nals, N-A-L-L-S, who ran for mayor in 2020 and failed.
He says black voices are not being heard and they believe that what's on the table are not real reparations.
Well, it's proposed by a black older woman, but black voices are apparently not being heard.
The group says it's inadequate and it would enrich banks.
Now listen to this reasoning.
He says, even with the $25,000, residents would still need a large influx of cash for any down payment and have good credit to get a mortgage from a bank.
The forces that have been historically benefiting from the racist policies of redlining and housing discrimination are now benefiting from programs aimed at undoing their harm.
I mean, how does a bank benefit from redlining?
How does a bank benefit from not doing business?
In any case, he says the banks are the problem, and even if we've got $25,000, we've got to go to a bank if we need to buy a house.
So, no dice.
He says all black residents deserve reparation.
Well, they're going to vote on this plan for this $25,000 giveaway on March 22nd.
So stay tuned.
See what happens.
Is that for everyone in the city or is that just for the City Council?
Excuse me?
Oh, the city council will vote.
Okay.
Oh, no, no.
The city doesn't have it.
I'm sure if the city had a chance to vote, they'd say, forget it.
Now, Evanston population.
There are 74,587 people living there at last census count.
59% are white.
Still majority white.
It's a fairly uptown kind of place.
The average home price, $700,000.
So, you know, he's right.
$25,000 is just a start if you're going to buy a house.
But be that as it may, 59% white, 15% black, 12% Hispanic, and 10% Asian.
But, you know, it's never enough.
It's just never enough.
Listen up, Whitey.
Reparations are never, ever going to be enough.
Yeah, just when you think, if you add another zero on that one, oh, no, no, it's going to be...
That's right.
Let's roll one more zero.
No, no, no.
Make it another zero.
Yes, yes.
It's never, ever.
2.5 million.
How about 25 million?
You know, the only way out is just not to play this game.
You start playing this game and, ooh, give an inch, they're going to want five miles.
In any case, sir.
The two most powerful, the most powerful word in the English language, Mr. Taylor, is simply this.
No.
It's amazing what you can get if you just use that word.
If white people only knew.
Now, I believe there's a different form of reparations brewing in the form of race-based COVID vaccining.
Yeah!
So we have an event with leading bioethics journal professors arguing that race should be the determining factor in the COVID-19 vaccine distribution.
This is the American Journal of Bioethics webinar event.
University of Denver law professor Govind Persad responded to a question about the key ethical principles that should govern vaccine allocation by priority to the disadvantaged groups.
You could think of it as a sort of health equity or disparity reduction principle where special attention should be paid to try and to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on groups
that have been systemically disadvantaged through sources like geographic vulnerability and
disadvantaged structural racism, these types of issues," he explained. You know, basically we've got a
situation where everything has to be looked at the lens of, is this going to be an advantageous act or
endeavor for people of color while simultaneously putting white people on the proverbial back
of the bus?
us.
Yeah.
You know, I've been a little bit surprised.
I don't recall, despite this kind of advice, which we've been hearing quite a lot, I'm not aware of any local authority that is in fact making racial distinctions.
Have you heard of any actually happening?
I know here in Fairfax County... There was one story in Judicial Watch where there were some Virginians who said that they were prioritizing blacks and Hispanics above white seniors.
I know that one thing that they've done is they've made a point of putting some of these vaccination centers in black areas or Hispanic areas so that they won't have to travel as far.
But I know in Fairfax County, here where I live, if you want to sign up for the vaccination, they don't ask you what your race is.
That's not part of the screening process at all.
It's by age, it's by what kind of profession you're in.
And it seems to be fairly race neutral.
But there you go.
As you say, it's all about race.
It's all about bad white people.
That's it.
That's the name of the game in 21st century America.
Well, here's another name of the game.
We have great news from the Air Force.
Did you realize that a crew, a 33-person crew of an E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System was made up of only all African-American flight crew.
They hunted high and low and this joint surveillance target attack radar system is known as JSTARS.
The first all-black flight crew in American history for JSTARS took off from Robbins Air Force Base on a training mission.
Just a training mission.
I guess they couldn't trust this piece of equipment in their hands for actual combat, but anyway.
They say the mission was years in the making.
And a spokesman said, within the active duty and guard, we've finally been able to come together and fulfill an entire African-American air crew.
Years in the making, I'm sure.
Years in the making!
They go on to say, this flight is about living the legacy, knowing the legacy, and growing the legacy.
Well, it took that legacy long enough to come to fruition.
Ah, put that in a flower pot and grow that legacy.
Mr. Taylor, somewhere Russian and Chinese generals are having a serious Utter farce, that is.
The woke military.
Well, that's a whole different story.
My video for this year is, I think it's, we decided to call it Semper Diversity.
A little bit too clever, but Semper Diversity.
Yeah, it's all about some of the, just the unimaginable idiocy that's going on in the military.
But in any case, for this flight, if you were white or you were Hispanic or Asian, you just couldn't be on board.
But I thought the military was all about teamwork, right?
Well, I guess it's an all black team.
I've got an experiment for you.
A thought experiment.
Had that plane crashed, would we have ever heard about it?
Would that training exercise have even been mentioned?
Well, I think the fact that it was all black would have been a very, very minor footnote.
But what they flew, you know, I looked into this aircraft, this JSTOR.
It's impressive.
Well, it's a modified Boeing 707.
Now, do you know when the first 707 flew?
707 flew.
First 707 probably flew in what, 1960 something?
Pretty good, 1957.
1957.
1957.
No commercial airline flies them anymore.
So wait, it took them that long?
You said, searching all that time?
That's right.
Well, they've had plenty of time to search for an all-black crew.
As it turns out, yes, John Travolta owned a 707 that used to fly for Qantas.
As I say, no commercial airline buys them anymore.
He had one that had been retired for Qantas, but it got to be just such an old piece of junk that in 2017, he donated it to the Historical Aircraft Restoration Society near Wollongong, Australia.
But in any case, yeah, they finally got together an all-black crew to fly this antique.
Don't say you didn't learn something weird on this show, but John Travolta, of course, is a big aviation nut, just like Tom Cruise.
There's a really cool photo you can see of his house, Mr. Taylor, probably about 15 years ago, and it's this gorgeous mansion.
He had his own terminal.
I think he had like three or four planes that are parked around his house.
It's an impressive shot because You know, he's an actor and he had time to learn how to be a pilot while he was making movies.
So he was able to be a 707 pilot before this whole flight crew.
Saturday Night Fever right there.
I guess it was.
I guess it was.
Well, and then moving on to Breonna Taylor.
As I always point out, no relation.
Major cities on the West Coast were among those seeing riots and protests Saturday night as demonstrators marked the one-year anniversary of Breonna Taylor's death.
He, she, or the lady who died at a police raid in Louisville, Kentucky, as our listeners are probably aware.
Los Angeles, Portland, and Seattle saw protests and clashes between crowds of people and police.
Rioters threw rocks at police officers in Hollywood.
And smashed store windows.
In Portland, vandals and arsonists targeted an administrative building for the public schools.
Isn't that great?
I mean, that'll really bring Breonna Taylor back to life.
They set a vehicle on fire, saw footage of a great big truck, just all smoke and ashes, black, black, black.
And they, let's see, and they smashed windows and spray-painted the walls, and there were anarchist symbols sprayed on the building.
I guess schools, I guess because they educate people in the capitalist system.
They're all part of this government oppression.
And in Portland, the federal courthouse once again was targeted by rioters.
Antifa types created a so-called no-go zone for the police and
the public around the courthouse.
This stuff is happening all over the country.
It's minor, minor news.
Not only is that happening all over the country, I didn't even know about any of
this, and I'm somebody who pays attention to the news.
This becomes just another day.
Just another day.
Dog bites man.
Several shops in downtown Seattle had smashed windows and spray-painted walls.
And in Antifa, the rioters in downtown Seattle left an interesting new graffiti.
I thought this was pretty good.
New president, same imperialism.
Oh!
Yes, new president, same imperialism.
Now, was Breonna Taylor a victim of imperialism?
I suppose by some convoluted stretch of an Antifa-diseased imagination, she was a victim of imperialism.
Well, you know, the graffiti should have said something like, don't let a man sleep in your bed if he's going to shoot at the police from inside your apartment.
I think that would be good advice.
That's a lot to get up into a wall, but I'm sure you can do it.
Yes, yes.
I mean, they've got plenty of time.
It's no-go zone for the police.
Or you could just do this.
This is a little bit shorter.
Cooperate with the police.
Yes.
Like you said.
Cooperate with the police.
Now, they would probably want to shoot themselves rather than put that on a wall.
Can you imagine?
Cooperate with the police.
I guess that would be allied with imperialism.
Taylor, good lord.
Besides letting a man sleep in her bed, who opens fire on the police, I mean, that's a dangerous thing to do.
I think she lent a renter car to this guy and it came back with a dead body in it.
It did?
That should have been something of a signal, too.
That's a red flag, if I ever saw one.
Are you dating the right guy?
Another dead body?
Are you kidding me?
One time?
Fool me once?
Shame on you.
Two dead bodies?
She must have been true love.
Must have been true love.
If I lend a car to a girlfriend and it comes back with dead bodies in it, you know, I'm going to think twice.
I'm going to think twice.
No wedding bells.
But now moving back to New York City, Shirlane McRae.
You know who Shirlane McRae is?
I'm going to say no because let's move this along.
You actually do know who she is.
She's Mrs. Bill de Blasio.
Oh, I do.
Yes.
Nine months after she convinced Bill de Blasio to cut $1 billion from NYPD funding, The number of shootings is up by 97%, murders up by 44%.
Well, Chirlane, First Lady of New York, has got a solution.
She says for the citizens to physically intervene.
If they witness a crime, a violent crime, intervene, she says.
We're asking New Yorkers to show up for their neighbors.
And intervene when witnessing hateful violence or harassment.
Now, if it's loving violence, you don't have to bother, but hateful violence, ooh, step right in there.
I know that can be frightening when you aren't sure what to do or say, but you can learn!
She said.
Ha, ha, ha.
She goes on to say, this is risky, but sometimes all we can do is speak up if the harasser responds.
Try your best to focus on assisting the person targeted and being prepared can help.
She says, well, yeah, it sure can.
I'd say a .40 caliber on your hip would really help, but that's not allowed in New York City.
Not legally, anyway.
And the fact is, Charlene McRae, she doesn't need one of those.
She's got bodyguards.
Security.
They're the ones who carry a .40 cal on their hip, but you, you poor disarmed sap living in New York, she wants you to wade into a knife fight or a gun fight with your bare hands and show up for your neighbors.
What kind of?
What kind of?
What happens if you show up for your neighbors and it turns out that it is a black individual assaulting an Asian individual?
And then this becomes, once again, Well, that's an embarrassment.
An inconvenient truth to borrow a page out of Al Gore's playbook.
Well, what's their crime that I think, according to Shirley MacLaine, somebody should have stepped in to stop these people who decided to use a white man as kindling?
So the reason why this story is so important, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Taylor, is because we are seeing some very important pop culture sites that merge the world of battling wokeness with sports subjects that, you know, you're normal Americans.
Who aren't really paying attention to what's going on?
They read this stuff.
And I can only be talking about Outkick.com.
Clay Travis, he's someone we've spoken about many times.
There's a good review of his book, Republicans Buy Sneakers Too.
He's been acknowledging there's been some crazy things happening across the country as things get woker and woker.
Mr. Chaley actually went before Congress last week and spoke about how his website, after he had Donald Trump on, they saw their Facebook traffic plunge 85%.
He basically said this is a coordinated strike on free speech.
Anybody that the tech tyrants don't like gets targeted for isolation and to see their stream of viewers stop.
This is going to be one of the stories that could get them banned from Facebook because this kind of stuff isn't allowed.
Here's the headline.
Media ignores two black teens setting mentally ill white man on fire, killing him.
I'll just read a few lines from the story.
You can judge for yourself about the importance of assigning A disturbing story emerged over the weekend.
Two teens in Rochester, New York, set a 53-year-old mentally ill white man on fire, ultimately killing him.
Interestingly, unlike many past stories written in New York Times or USA Today, the races of involved parties were not mentioned.
In 2021, that's rare.
It turns out the two teens are black, and as stated, the now deceased mentally ill man wasn't.
But the Times at least mentioned the story.
Just that it was raceless.
One of these raceless mysteries.
Now, of course, again, Outkick is going with that similar trope we've heard for years, but I think it's very effective because, again, this is an audience that probably has never heard of American Renaissance.
Probably hasn't even heard of, you know, some other conservative sites.
They've heard of Breitbart or, you know, Daily Caller, but here's what they say.
The author says this, I will ask a simple question.
What if the roles were reversed?
If two white teens Randomly set a mentally ill black man on fire, killing him, it would unequivocally be deemed an act of racism.
Riots would break out, social media would go to war, buildings would burn, and talking points would appear around the clock, as we saw, of course, with this shooting down in Atlanta.
So, basically, we've got a situation, and why we got it, kudos to Outkick.com, kudos to anybody out there who has an audience, And who jeopardizes that audience in this era of progressive insanity by bringing to light a story like this.
Well, that's great.
I'd certainly never heard this story.
Two guys burn a white man to death.
Ho-hum.
Nothing to see here.
Move along.
Well, I would like to talk about racism in dating.
There's plenty of that.
Now, this story is a little old.
We haven't gotten around to it in a few earlier podcasts, but I hope it's worth talking about.
There is a new book out.
It's called The Dating Divide, Race and Desire in the Era of Online Romance.
It's by three sociologists, and it shows how online dating sites exacerbate racial tensions.
Well, it doesn't breathe in the air, exacerbate racial tensions.
They found that race-related preference filters on digital dating platforms help foster racist attitudes.
Now, I don't understand that.
If you've already got the idea that you want to filter out or in certain people, you've already got the attitudes.
But that helps foster racial attitudes, especially towards black women.
So, there you go.
Now, filtering out people based on race is a normal practice on dating apps, says one of the authors.
And the idea of having racial preferences is unacceptable and illegal in any other area.
Well, that's not true.
You can choose your friends at the base of race if you want to.
There are plenty of ways you can choose that.
What's left of it, there's still a little bit of it.
Now, a 2014 study found that preferring to date within one's race was fairly common.
For instance, black women prefer to date black men.
Are they racist too?
No.
Not at all.
They're to be lauded.
At a rate surpassed only by Asian women's preference for Asian men.
So wait a minute, who are the racists?
Who are the racists?
My gosh, I thought for sure this was going to be a hang whitey high story, but oh boy, I guess they're the most racist people of all.
But, it turns out that when people are filtering out, Nobody wants to date black women.
Oh boy.
Poor girls.
Kinge, OkCupid, PlentyOfFish, and Match.com all offer race and ethnicity filters.
Whereas Tinder and Bumble do not.
Hail Tinder.
Hail Bumble.
I wonder how Grindr does.
I don't know.
Grindr?
I think that's an all-male site.
But in any case, when the average dating app user doesn't see a black woman because of the filters they've set, you end up with a higher percentage of users seeking black women as a fetish.
say the authors. Now, I don't understand that. If you filter them out, you're not going to see them.
If you filter them in, you will see them. But just because other people are filtering them out
doesn't make them a fetish. Now, for... It's the exact opposite, actually.
Yeah. For Nicole, a 39-year-old Afro-Caribbean single mother from Brooklyn,
she was receiving overly sexual overtures from non-black men. And apps that she said was the
unwelcome norm. Right off the bat, these guys are approaching me with,
hey, sexy chocolate, or I love your beautiful black body.
Can you twerk?
That's a great opening line.
Well, you know, back in my dating days, I must say, nobody ever asked me if I could twerk.
But everyone knows white men can't twerk.
White men can't twerk?
White men can't twerk.
Well, but you know, I bet she gets this kind of line from black men for heaven's sake.
I can only imagine the type of line she did get from black men.
And I'd like to know what type of lines the father that is absent in the children's life gave her before.
Yeah, yeah.
And then here's another.
Mish.
She is a black executive assistant.
She said her digital quest for companionship reaped a paltry handful of bad love connections.
Yeah, I'm very sure.
She says, I'm very turned off by dating sites now, says the 53-year-old Bronx native.
She says, like, I'm not being seen as the beautiful queen I am.
Wow. Maybe she should lower her expectations of what nature is going to look like.
Not being seen by the beautiful queen I am.
Was there a picture of her coming in that story?
No, no, but I'm sure the 53-year-old is slim and trim and an absolutely beautiful queen and I'm sorry she's just not getting the obeisance that she deserves.
But meanwhile, this is interesting.
Tinder, along with its parent company Match Group, is working with a non-profit called Garbo to help customers find out if their potential dating partner has a criminal record.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah, that's okay.
This is an industry first.
An industry first.
They've not been any background checked before in the dating industry.
Now, it includes details of initial charges because they often get watered down as part of a plea bargain.
You want to know what the initial charges were?
Now, They exclude drug possession and other charges that tend to be disproportionately enforced against marginalized groups.
But you see, if they are filtering out everything disproportionately enforced against marginalized groups, good luck with that, because they're going to eliminate all of the charges.
There's going to be a new kind of digital segregation going on there.
I fear so.
But in any case, the next thing they're going to do is they're going to weed out racists, I'm sure.
They're going to find out if you were ever a bad guy, ever listened to Radio Renaissance podcast, and then if they ever find that out about, oh, they won't let you on the site at all.
So there you go.
Racism is being stamped out of online dating.
I'm so glad to hear that.
Now just to finish up, we have a little story about Columbia University.
Columbia University is going to have six graduation ceremonies.
Six?
Six, yes.
Only six?
Yep.
And they're going for LGBTQIA+.
That sounds quite broad-minded and inclusive.
Then there's going to be one for Asian, there's going to be one for Latins, and then Blacks, and this is interesting, first-generation and or low-income.
And students must register by March 21st.
That's coming up soon, Columbia students, to get their multicultural graduation gift, such as stoles, tassels, and pins.
Well, and of course, you know, the idea is you have to take these poor, marginalized, trodden, downtrodden, kicked about people and give them special ceremonies.
Well, I'd like to know, how about the people who are really badly treated in Columbia?
Do they get special graduations?
How about the white men?
The most despised, the most dumped upon people of all are white men.
I don't think there will be any special ceremonies.
I think the goal is to make sure that in the near future there aren't a handful of white men even graduating.
I think that's probably it.
But anyway, our time, as usual, comes to an all-too-rapid end.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls all around the world, we do thank you for your attention.
It's an honor and a joy to speak with you.
