Breonna Taylor became a BLM heroine after she died during a police raid targeting her ex-boyfriend when her current boyfriend opened fire on cops. Since the Biden administration decided to put BLM in charge of the DOJ, some of the officers involved were lynched for the crime of… fighting back after they were shot at.
A Chicago man who was charged over the murder of police officer Ella French has been offered a plea deal that will see him jailed for just seven years.
French, 29, was shot dead in the West Englewood neighborhood on August 7, 2021 during a routine traffic and cop Carlos Yanez was severely wounded but survived his injuries.
Eric Morgan was accused of handling the murder weapon allegedly used by his brother Emonte and was charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, and obstruction of justice.
At one point during her stream, Blackwell turned to face her camera and challenged the cops to arrest her.
“Tell the police they’re either gonna lock me up tonight, or it’s gonna get lit, it’s gonna be a movie,” she said at one point.
Violent thefts have prompted warnings from shops in the US that “unprecedented” levels of crime led to losses of $112 billion last year.
Workers have been beaten and even killed when confronting suspected shoplifters, leading many stores to employ extra security guards to protect staff. Organised crime gangs have been caught repeatedly on camera storming through stores, grabbing handfuls of merchandise from the shelves before running off.

A popular social media influencer known as “Meatball” livestreamed the rabid looting spree that engulfed Philadelphia’s city center overnight, before she was seemingly arrested while cheering on the marauders.
Meatball, whose real name is Dayjia Blackwell, shared video and photos on her Instagram Stories gleefully documenting the mass plunder of several businesses, including an Apple store, a Foot Locker, a Lululemon and a liquor store.

An organiser of a Black Lives Matter protest has admitted taking money from a fundraising page set up before the toppling of Edward Colston’s statue.
Xahra Saleem was one of the organisers of a protest held in Bristol in response to the murder of George Floyd by police in the US.
It is alleged the excess funds from the fundraiser were supposed to be given to a youth charity.
Scotland Yard is negotiating with the Army to cover for armed officers who are refusing to carry guns, The Telegraph can reveal.
The Metropolitan Police has asked the Ministry of Defence (MoD) to provide resources after more than 100 firearms officers effectively walked off the job following the decision to charge one of their colleagues with murder.
It is understood military personnel could be asked to step in and cover for Counter Terrorism Specialist Firearms Officers, who are among those who are currently refusing to carry guns.
Ibram X. Kendi has done as he promised. In 2020, freshly anointed as the director of Boston University’s new Center for Antiracist Research (CAR), Kendi announced his intention to “transform how racial research is done.” Previously, “research” had been understood to involve collecting data, analyzing trends and gathering new insights through the careful application of sustained thought. But these expectations were hallmarks of white supremacy. This week, as allegations of wanton mismanagement emerge from Kendi’s staff, it appears that what it means to do “racial research” has indeed been transformed: it now entails taking vast sums of other people’s money, then using it to produce almost nothing.
During the five-year period of the study, reported murders rose by about 11.5 percent.
While police killings declined in the aftermath of Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests, a recent study found that there was a jump in homicides as police became “less proactive” due to worries about public perception and lawsuits.
The Sept. 14 study analyzed two major waves of BLM protests—those following the death of Michael Brown, from 2014 to 2015, and those following the death of George Floyd, from 2020 to 2021.
Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research, headed by critical race theory guru and left-wing activist Ibram X. Kendi, has laid off almost half of its employees just three years after its founding, according to media reports.
Former employees of the center are now claiming that Kendi exploited them and mismanaged the center’s financial resources.
If the NFL is a plantation, and the processes of the Scouting Combine are akin to those at bygone slave auctions, then why is Colin Kaepernick trying to return to a life of chains? As Delano Squires put it, “So he’s asking to return to the same ‘plantation’ where he toiled for years before being manumitted? I’ve never seen an abolitionist who hated his freedom this much.”
Examining all credible theories of crime helps us identify the true cause of the problem — which is what we should want.
I apparently touched a nerve when I wrote in a recent op-ed that exceptionally high homicide rates among young low-income black males in big cities can be traced to a “subculture of violence,” which I defined as “a propensity to resort to violence to resolve interpersonal conflict.” What really set off hundreds of readers was the following: “This traces back to the nineteenth century South, where whites manifested similar behavior, dubbed an ‘honor culture’ by historians. Blacks, overwhelmingly southerners in the nineteenth century, adopted the white southern subculture of violence and took it to northern cities in the Great Migration.”
What started off as a brief struggle between two people has threatened to drive a lasting wedge between two communities.
Video of a black customer being manhandled by an Asian shopkeeper was followed by vitriolic threats and loud protests outside his hair and beauty shop in Peckham, southeast London.
The shopkeeper, Sohail Sindho, 45, said he was protecting his shop from a suspected shoplifter and that he was also attacked. He claimed the video footage did not tell the whole story.
During the George Floyd riots in the spring and summer of 2020, BLM rioters were essentially allowed to wreak havoc as they pleased without consequence. The nation watched as rioters burned and defaced buildings, and liberal-controlled cities did little to stop it. Washington, D.C., for example, refused to prosecute rioters who defaced buildings, yet, when pro-life protesters used chalk on an abortion clinic, the city threw the book at them, and two pro-life activists were arrested in 2020.
Nine years ago today, Michael Brown was shot dead by policeman Darren Wilson in Ferguson, Missouri. The death created the Black Lives Matter movement, which prior to that was only a hashtag, and took it to national fame, based on the claim that Brown was shot with his “hands up” while pleading “don’t shoot.”
