Black Face & Black Jokes: Twitter Users Reveal their True Colors with Trayvon & Zimmerman Halloween Costumes

From [HERE] The world of social media erupted in outrage this weekend when white Twitter users posted a picture of themselves dressed as Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, Global Grind reports. No detail was spared as the photo was complete with blackface, a blood stained hoodie and a "neighborhood watch" t-shirt. The scandalous photo features a white man pointing his fingers like a gun at the individual dressed to look like Trayvon. It was uploaded Friday to the Facebook page of Caitlin Cimeno, a white woman, who captioned the photo “Happy Halloween from Zimmerman & trayvon.” The picture has since been removed. [MORE

White people lack color and melanin and they dislike this difference. As stated by Dr. Welsing, 'always, in the presence of color whites will feel genetically inferior. Therefore they use make-up, tan their skin and exercise excessively to compensate for their perceived deficiency.'

According to Dr. Welsing, "the destructive and aggressive behavioral patterns being displayed by white peoples towards all non-white peoples is evidence of the inner hate, hostility and rejection they feel towards themselves and of the depth of self-alienation that has evolved from the genetic and psychological kernel of color inadequacy." Color defeciency along with numerical inadequacy (90% of the world is non-white and the white population is declining) cause some white people to be self alienated, narcissistic/self important, have anxiety, depression [MORE] and to function as psychopaths in their relations with non-whites. 

Here is Mark Twain on the dislike of white skin:

"[White skin] is not an unbearably unpleasant complexion when it keeps to itself, but when it comes into competition with masses of brown and black the fact is betrayed that it is endurable only because we are used to it. Nearly all black and brown skins are beautiful, but a beautiful white skin is rare. How rare, one may learn by walking down a street in Paris, New York, or London on a week-day—particularly an unfashionable street—and keeping count of the satisfactory complexions encountered in the course of a mile. Where dark complexions are massed, they make the whites look bleached-out, unwholesome, and sometimes frankly ghastly.

I could notice this as a boy, down South in the slavery days before the war. The splendid black satin skin of the South African Zulus of Durban seemed to me to come very close to perfection. I can see those Zulus yet—'ricksha athletes waiting in front of the hotel for custom; handsome and intensely black creatures, moderately clothed in loose summer stuffs whose snowy whiteness made the black all the blacker by contrast. Keeping that group in mind, I can compare those complexions with the white ones which are streaming past this london window now.

White man walks into pizza place dressed as minstrel in MN.

The advantage is with the Zulu, I think. He starts with a beautiful complexion, and it will last him through. And as for the Indian brown--firm, smooth, blemishless, pleasant, and restful to the eye, afraid of no color, harmonizing with all colors and adding a grace to them all--I think there is no sort of chance for the average white complexion against that rich and perfect tint."

Trayvon as a Joke. This is apart of the racist trend of white people finding amusement in the death of Trayvon Martin and the not guilty verdict of white man, George Zimmerman.

Federal appeals court rules FBI can withhold racial surveillance information

The Federal Bureau of Investigation is collecting racial and ethnic information and “mapping” American communities around the country based on crude stereotypes about which groups commit different types of crimes. Nationwide, the FBI is gathering reports on innocent Americans' so-called “suspicious activity” and sharing it with unknown numbers of federal, state and local government agencies. [MORE] and [MORE] In photo, FBI director James Comey. 

From [HERE] The US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit on Wednesday ruled [opinion, PDF] that the FBI is not required to disclose documents regarding its use of ethnic and racial information. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking the disclosure of those documents, but the district court held that the information sought was exempt from the disclosure requirement. The Third Circuit noted that FBI investigations vary greatly in sensitivity based on location and circumstances. Moreover, the court agreed that disclosure of information would adversely affect current FBI investigations by notifying and alerting targets: "It is hard to imagine how the FBI could provide a more detailed justification for withholding information under this exemption without compromising the very information it sought to protect." The ACLU had asked FBI to disclose the information at issue in 2008 and FBI had released 312 of 782 pages while withholding 284 pages as exempt from disclosure.

Judge & Prosecutor @ the Same Time: White Judge Resigns After Caught Texting Prosecutor During Trial

A "Fair" Trial in a racist system? Rarely discussed, courtrooms are epicenters of racism.The deck is especially stacked against non-white defendants as the criminal justice system is simply rigged to ensure the greater confinement of non-whites.

Judge Coker has apparently admitted to being a part of the maniipulation of the process - as she conspired with prosecutors to convict at least one defendant during a trial. No virtue here. This is the ultimate hypocrisy for a judge presiding over a criminal trial allegedly designed to be "fair" for all. Her unjust conduct should call into question her rulings in all her previous criminal cases. Also, all prosecutors involved should be terminated for betraying the public trust - 'as prosecutors have a sworn duty to govern impartially and a duty not to win a case, but to do justice [MORE @281]- white supremacy is carried out through deception and/or force. [MORE]

Innocent Until Proven Guilty just a Slogan. From [HEREElizabeth Coker, a judge for the 258th District Court in Livingston Texas, has signed an “Agreement To Resign From Judicial Office In Lieu Of Disciplinary Action” after being investigated by the Texas Department of Judicial Review. Livingston is about 33% non-white. Texas Department of Judicial Review. Judge Coker has agreed to step down from the bench December 6 and to never serve as a judge again. Coker will officially take a leave of absence until then.

Judge Coker, who is a third generation Texas jurist, was caught texting suggested questions to Kaycee Jones, the prosecutor in a trial she was presiding over, trying to help Jones secure a conviction. It didn’t work. The defendant was acquitted in that trial.

According to the Montgomery County Police Reporter, the State Department of Judicial Review found evidence that Judge Coker was hands on in trying to manipulate the course of justice in her court in other instances as well.

From the agreement Judge Coker signed:

“Judge Coker allegedly engaged in other improper ex parte communications and meetings with Jones, other members or the Polk County District Attorney’s Office, the San Jacinto County District Attorney, and certain defense attorneys regarding various cases pending in her court; Judge Coker allegedly exhibited a bias in favor of certain attorneys and a prejudice against others in both her judicial rulings and her court appointments: and .Judge Coker allegedly met with jurors in an inappropriate manner, outside the presence of counsel, while the jurors were deliberating in one or more criminal trials.”

A White Proseuctor Involved is Now a Judge. Kaycee Jones, the prosecutor who Judge Coker was texting her helpful hints during trial is a judge now. In fact, she asked Judge Coker to administer her oath of office last January (in photo).

Judge Jones has acknowledged and apologized for her part in the texting episode and promised not to be corrupt again.

Every Room in Black Family's Alhambra Home ‘Severely Vandalized’ in Hate Crime by Racist Suspects

In photo, a child runs past a home that was burglarized and spray painted inside with racial epithets toward African Americans in the 2000 block of Midwickhill Drive in Alhambra's Midwick Tract Tuesday, October 22, 2013. [MORE]

From [HERE] and [HERE] A black family in Alhambra was the victim of an apparent hate crime by racist suspects Monday night when their home was broken into and every room was vandalized, police said.

About 3 p.m., a resident returned to their home in 2000 block of Midwickhill Drive and found "nigger" and other racial epithets scrawled in red spray paint in every room of the house, belongings smashed, food thrown about and the smell of bleach and vinegar thick in the air.  Swastikas were also spray-painted inside the home, CBS Los Angeles reported.  Food was reportedly spread throughout the house and the suspect or suspects had poured bleach inside the residence.

What also has police concerned is that weapons belonging to the family were taken. Authorities say the weapons were registered. [MORE]

“The house was absolutely trashed,” Sgt. Jerry Johnson said. “There was nothing specific to the family (spray-painted on the walls) as far as names; in general, there were anti-African-American slurs.”

“It’s no question, the worst thing in 24 years of law enforcement I’ve ever seen,” Johnson told NBC4. The air was so thick with the smell of chemicals that firefighters had to show up and treat police officers investigating the incident, NBC reported.

The house was in such bad shape the family couldn’t immediately tell what had been stolen except for some guns, Johnson said. There have been no arrests and police continue to investigate.

Richmond sewer director is Definitely, Definitely Sorry for the racism: "African-Americans think slower than other races"

From [HERE] Leaders from one of the Bay Area's most diverse cities are calling for the ouster of Leonard Battaglia, 85, a sewer district director in the Richmond over racist remarks he made about African-Americans and Asians in an interview with the San Jose Mercury Times.

In the interview, Battaglia repeatedly used a common slur to describe people of Asian descent. African-Americans "think slower" than other races, he said. "They can't help it. It's the way God made them." The newspaper called Battaglia back before the story was published and he stood by his remarks.

Responding to the criticism, Battaglia on Wednesday apologized for his remarks but said he had no plans to resign. He said he was "very sorry it happened. I apologize. Life must go on. I don't think I'm a prejudiced person."

Several Richmond residents told the council they were deeply troubled to learn that someone elected to oversee basic services in their city thought of them as inferior. "You can't represent us and speak about our people like that," Jackie Thompson said.

"People who classify themselves as White, who wish to be taken seriously, and who are righteous and responsible, will only talk about ending White Supremacy (Racism) and replacing it with Justice." [more] According to Anon, there are different types of white people: 

There are whites who:

  • are practicing racism against non-whites at a particular moment
  • are not practicing racism at that moment but have practiced it at a previous time, or will practice it at a later time
  • are not practicing racism at that moment, but say and do nothing to stop those who are
  • are not practicing racism at that moment, but have no problem with other whites practicing racism (don’t care)
  • are benefiting from the crime of racism even if they are not practicing racism at that moment
  • refuse to tell WHO is practicing racism; HOW racism is being practiced; and refuse to help the victims with the information they have
  • oppose racism by exposing and opposing whites who practice it [MORE]

Rehabilitation is Not the Goal: Black Kid Charged as Adult in Death of White Woman

From [HERE] Philip Chism, 14, a freshman at Danvers High School, is being held without bail, charged with murdering beloved high school math teacher Colleen Ritzer, 24, of Andover. Both Philip Chism and Ritzer had been reported missing Tuesday. "He wasn't violent at all. He was really the opposite of aggressive," student Kyle Cahill told Fox 25. Even though he has no history of prior juvenile adjudications, White prosecutors decided to charge him as an adult. Chism's defense attorney argued for the proceedings to be closed and her client to be allowed to stay hidden because of his age. The white judge denied the request. Guilty until proven guilty, now the media has the 14 yr. old on blast! What's the difference between being charged as an adult or juvenile?  

  • One of the primary goals of the juvenile justice system remains largely rehabilitative in focus, whereas the purpose of the criminal justice system is nearly exclusively punitive. The criminal justice system has largely abandoned the responsibility of rehabilitation of offenders.

Would prosecutor Jon Blodgett charge a 14 yr old white kid as an adult if a black woman was killed? Race has everything to do with; whether police will stop or arrest, whether prosecutors will charge, what prosecutors will charge, the quality of the plea offered, the penalties prosecutors will seek, pre-trial detention or release and what sentence will be imposed. 

  • Juvenile delinquency proceedings are not considered to be criminal in nature in most states. Juvenile court is often organizationally distinct from criminal court and may fall under a civil court division or a family court division.
  • Juvenile justice dispositions include a range of options unavailable in criminal sentencing. Juvenile dispositions are expected to meet the treatment needs of individual children in the least restrictive environment possible or, at least, to balance treatment considerations with community safety concerns. Therefore, dispositions can include a wide range of supervision, treatment, and alternative programs instead of incarceration. Additionally, juvenile court commitment or probation periods usually end by the youth's 21st birthday, when most juvenile courts cease to have jurisdiction over dispositions in delinquency matters.

$8.25 an hour = a McJob. McDonald's advises own employee to apply for food stamps

Nearly 50% of all Blacks and Latinos have low wage "McJobs." From [HERE] The burgeoning battle between fast-food chain (servitude) workers and their employers over low wages and benefits was ratcheted up a notch, this week, with the leak of a phone conversation from a McDonald’s employee helpline in which a longtime employee was advised to go on food stamps in order to make ends meet.

Fast-food employee advocacy group Low Pay Is Not OK posted a video on its website on Wednesday featuring a recording of a phone call made by McDonald’s employee Nancy Salgado to McResource, a phone line for McDonald’s employees to call for information about housing, child care and other resources.

Salgado, 27, a single mother of two children, has worked full-time at McDonald’s for the last decade but says she has never received a raise from her $8.25 an hour salary, the minimum wage in Chicago, where she lives.

She was having difficulty paying her bills and feeding her kids, so when she heard about the McResource phone line at a recent meeting with her fellow employees, “it caught my attention,” she told Al Jazeera in a phone interview. “I need help, so I wanted to see what kind of help they can provide for me.”

Salgado said she wanted to record the phone call – she disclosed this to the representative who answered her call, who said that was fine – and asked about how she might obtain medical benefits or get help paying her heating bill. She also told the representative, who asked whether Salgado had children, that she was “rationing food” in order to feed her kids.

The representative offered to connect Salgado with a number of federal benefit programs for which she was eligible, including Medicaid, a medical care program for low-income adults and their kids, and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), otherwise known as food stamps.

Salgado said she was surprised the company advised her to seek government benefits, and didn’t address her current salary or benefits situation.  “I feel very angry. I wasn’t expecting to get the number for government assistance,” she said. “I was expecting they’d give me some other kind of answer.”

She added, “I believe that I work for one of the richest companies that can afford to pay better wages to their workers.”

(Right to Trial = high stakes legal gambling) Judge says "Justice" Department Forces Guilty Pleas with Overblown Charges

From [HERE] A federal judge said the Justice Department routinely abuses its power to bully defendants into giving up their constitutional right to a trial.

Judge John Gleeson, who as a federal prosecutor sent the late mafia boss John Gotti to prison, said in an opinion earlier this month that prosecutors are using the threat of decades or life in prison to extract guilty pleas even if the defendants' alleged crimes fall far short of meriting such long sentences.

Such tactics are "unsound and brutally unfair" and create "the sentencing equivalent of a two-by-four to the forehead," the judge said in a 60-page sentencing opinion on a New York drug case.

"The fact that they are business as usual doesn't alter the fact that these sentences should instill shame in all of us," Judge Gleeson wrote, saying the tactic will force some innocent people to plead guilty. Nominated to the federal bench by President Bill Clinton, Judge Gleeson has been a district court judge in Brooklyn, N.Y., for nearly two decades.

The long-standing practice has helped federal prosecutors garner an enviable conviction record. Currently 97% of criminal charges in all federal jurisdictions end in a guilty plea, which means the vast majority of federal criminal cases never go to trial.

Attorney General Eric Holder recently announced major changes to Justice Department use of mandatory minimum prison sentences in drug cases, saying prosecutors should use their discretion to seek fewer long sentences for nonviolent offenders.

Judge Gleeson praised those efforts but said the problems created by mandatory minimums are "small potatoes" compared with the problems with plea negotiations. While Mr. Holder's memo also included some cautions on using threats in plea negotiations, Judge Gleeson called the guidance weak and said it wouldn't stop prosecutors from using hardball tactics as "sledgehammers against the ever-dwindling few who have the temerity to ask for the trial the Constitution guarantees."

At issue is what lawyers call a prior felony information, or 851 notice—a legal warning that prosecutors intend to lengthen a mandatory sentence for drug offenses based on a defendant's prior convictions. Once prosecutors file the notice, the longer sentence, often life, is mandatory if the defendant is convicted. The law was originally intended to hit narcotics kingpins and hardened criminals, but the judge said it has been abused to coerce pleas because the 851 notice can trigger automatic sentences of decades or life. Prosecutors often threaten to file 851 notices in verbal negotiations conducted without a judge—leaving no trace in a written records.

Detroit's [S]elected Negro in Charge Fires White Man who made Trayvon Joke

From [HERE] Jim Bonsall, Detroit’s chief financial officer, has resigned in the wake of an investigation over a racially tinged comment he made in a meeting with other city officials. Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr, who hired Bonsall this summer at an annual salary of $225,000, today accepted Bonsall’s resignation, Orr’s office announced today.

Orr met with Bonsall this afternoon to discuss the results of an investigation in his comments, apparently in jest, whether he’d be able to shoot anyone in a hoodie if he participated in the city’s annual Angels’ Night anti-arson patrols. Bonsall’s hoodie remark was an apparent reference to the fatal shooting of unarmed Black teen Trayvon Martin, who died after a confrontation with white man George Zimmerman. Detroit is 86 % Black (for now).

"Michigan officials" (white people) along with Governor Rick Snyder (the big boss), a Republican (White Party), handpicked Orr in March to function as an emergency manager to oversee operations in Detroit, one of the largest cities to ever receive such intervention. That is, they replaced Detroit's elected black leaders (the Mayor and City Council) with Orr and his team of flunkys.

Bonsall apologized for the remark last week after the Free Press’ report on Johnson’s letter.

Disney's "Mind Shampoo": 90 Years of Racist Images

According to Dr. Blynd, the media functions as a "mind shampoo and conditioning process of the Greater System --" the media is the mirage." As a tool of white supremacists, the media degrades, dehumanizes and programs non-whites to believe they are inferior to whites - Anon calls this process "niggerization."The media also programs non-whites to believe that white supremacy does not exist - as white people rarely mistreat non-white people on the basis of color on television or in movies [and never in an organized or systematic way]. In fact, in movies and television white people treat non-whites as their equals - this also is a mirage. 

Since its creation Disney has provided its share of entertainment supportive to the System of White Supremacy (Racism). Just in time for the 90th anniversary of Disney's founding, PolicyMic has provided a review of some of it's most racist programming. Above is a clip from Dumbo (1941) which features the character "Jim Crow", a black crow who coons for us. This classic also contains, "Song of the Roustabouts,"  in which faceless black circus workers work while singing, "We slave until we’re almost dead / We’re happy-hearted roustabout" and "Keep on working / Stop that shirking / Pull that rope, you hairy ape."

Truth in Sentencing? White Chicago Mayor Seeks to Lock Up More Blacks & Latinos with Mandatory Minimum Proposal

(The system of white supremacy (racism) system requires population control and the greater confinement of substantial numbers of non-white people, particularly Black & Latino males. [more]) From [HERE] Mayor Rahm Emanuel has touched a nerve with his demand for a mandatory minimum, three-year sentence for gun crimes with a requirement that defendants serve 85 percent of their sentences. That much was obvious Wednesday when a City Council bitterly divided along racial lines went on record urging the Illinois General Assembly to impose stiffer sentences for gun crimes.

The resolution talked about truth-in-sentencing. It made no mention of the three-year minimum. But it triggered a debate aldermen were itching to have. White aldermen were all for the bill championed by Emanuel and Police Supt. Garry McCarthy.

African-American aldermen had such reservations, they threatened to send the resolution back to committee. They argued that mandatory minimum sentences failed miserably in the war on drugs and a similar approach to gun crimes would result in more of the same.

“We have spent countless police hours stopping men, frisking them at a disproportionate rate than our numbers in society and it is causing such a stigma in the community, such a schism that our people don’t trust the police,” said Ald. Howard Brookins. [MORE

High court orders California to release thousands of prisoners

From [HERE] On Tuesday, the US Supreme Court rejected an appeal to halt the early release of thousands of California prison inmates by the end of the year.

The Supreme Court did not comment on its decision, which supports a previous ruling by a lower court forcing California to free about 9,600 additional inmates by the end of the year. In 2011, federal judges ruled that the state must improve prison health conditions. Reducing the number of inmates was included as part of the process. 

Since then, California has cut its prison population by about 25,000 inmates. State Gov. Jerry Brown claims that releasing even more could jeopardize public safety. It remains to be seen whether or not counties in California are equipped to handle the influx of inmates scheduled to occur.

"We haven't projected for them. They are not part of our population modeling. So you can't give them to us. We're not ready for this yet," Jerry Powers, a member of the Los Angeles County Probation Department, told the local ABC news affiliate in Los Angeles.

According to ABC, Los Angeles County could find itself making room for about 3,000 inmates in January 2014. 

"The state's reclassification of mentally disordered offenders so that they're no longer mentally disordered offenders because of a signature on a piece of paper has resulted in an undue burden to our local county probation officers," Los Angeles County Supervisor Mike Antonovich said.

California is still trying to strike a deal with the courts that would delay the release of prisoners beyond the start of the new year. Gov. Brown has also signed a bill that would allow the state to hold inmates in private and county jails should it fail to arrange a delay of the January deadline. 

White Party (Republican) Shutdown Message: 'We Don't Like Our White Skin So We Demean & Degrade People of Color'

Get ready for Winter White. Above, terrified racist suspect, Michael Ashmore of Hooks, Tex., was among the many white Republicans who converged on Washington for the "Million Vet March on the Memorials" to spread the White Party (Republican) Self Alienation message to the votary. [MORE].   

Anything Goes in this racial environment. White plus Black equals Colored. White plus Brown equals Colored. White plus Yellow equals Colored. This (genetic annihilation) scares white people to death. White people's numerical inadequacy (the world is 90% non-white) and color deficiency are facts beyond change that fuel the practice of white supremacy/racism (a behavioral system for their survival) [MORE

As explained by Frances Cress Welsing, "Racism (white supremacy), having begun as a form of self-alienation, has evolved into the most highly refined form of alienation from others as well. The Color-Confrontation theory views all of the present battle­grounds in the world as vivid reflections of this reality; the destructive and aggressive behavioral patterns being displayed by white peoples towards all non-white peoples is evidence of the inner hate, hostility and rejection they feel towards themselves and of the depth of self-alienation that has evolved from the genetic and psychological kernel of color inadequacy."

A White Party. "The Republican party is a racial identity party. It is designed to appeal to white people as white people... not as union-members or as unemployed people or as home-owners... just as white people.  It is a crude racial-identity party and the numbers bear that out. It is an almost exclusively white party. Many white people vote Democratic, but the Republican party is pretty close to all white." [MORE]   

White people are the vanishing majority in the U.S. That is, the U.S. Census Bureau has reported that by 2047 non-white persons will be the majority of the US population. The Republican Party is the party of the vanishing majority - it is the White Party. 

As explained by Republican Patrick Buchanan, 'Republicans now depend on this vanishing majority of whites for fully 90 percent of their votes in presidential elections, while the Democratic Party wins 60 to 70 percent of the Asian and Hispanic vote and 90 to 95 percent of the black vote. The Democratic base is growing inexorably, while the Republican base is shriveling. [MORE]

Already, California, Illinois and New York are lost. The GOP has not carried any of the three in six presidential elections. When Texas – where whites are a minority and a declining share of the population – tips, how does the GOP put together an electoral majority?' [MORE] In order to survive they must (practice racism) rig elections, suppress votes, shut down the government, etc. 

The knee deep irony is that Obama and the Democratic leadership with their right leaning agenda basically function as Republicans. Very little separates Obama and Bush. The Democractic Party also is a 'white party. Its major decision makers and donors are white people, its agenda is unaccountable to Blacks and Latinos and they do nothing to disturb the status quo of white supremacy. Obama has delivered little of tangible benefit to the Black and Latino voters he claims to represent. All that really seems to matter to the fearful Republican votary is that Obama is Black. Soon enough (2016) they will have a white president.  

Who’s Really Using the Death Penalty? (2 % of U.S. counties are responsible for 52% of all executions)

From [HERE] Just 2 percent of U.S. counties are responsible for 52% of all executions and 56% of the country’s current death row population(Photo by FPG/Hulton Archive/Getty Images).

We know that, in the U.S., there are large differences in the enthusiasm with which the death penalty is applied. Currently, there are 32 states that still allow the use of the death penalty: some use it a lot, some barely at all. But what is less well known is the disparity that exists within states, at the county level.

The Death Penalty Information Center has released a report which illustrates these disparities. For example, out of the 3,143 counties in the U.S., 62, or just 2% (representing just 15.6% of the total U.S. population), are responsible for 52% of all executions and 56% of the current U.S. death row population. Even in states known for their vigorous use of the death penalty, many counties have never handed down a death sentence. Nationally, an overwhelming majority (85%) of counties have never produced an execution.

These disparities have serious implications for fairness (the Supreme Court has ruled that the death penalty is supposed to be applied based on the severity of the crime, not its location), and for taxpayers, who must pay to support the criminal justice money pit of capital punishment even though the majority of them live in counties where the death penalty is largely irrelevant.

In many of the heaviest use counties, high octane pursuit of executions has been accompanied by underfunded defense lawyers, high reversal rates, and prosecutorial misconduct.

  • Philadelphia County is responsible for 88 death sentences – the 3rd most of any county in the U.S. – but pays defense lawyers less than any other county in Pennsylvania.
  • In Orleans Parish in Louisiana, one DA – Harry Connick, Sr. – accounted for four wrongful convictions that led to death row exonerations. All 4 cases involved the abuse of withholding evidence from the defense (known as a Brady violation). This prompted U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to write that “inattention to Brady was standard operating procedure at the District Attorney’s Office.”
  • And in Arizona, Andrew Thomas, a District Attorney in Maricopa County (4th most death sentences in the U.S.) was disbarred in 2012 for “a reckless, four-year campaign of corruption and power abuse.”

With its wrongful convictions, racial bias, and botched executions, the U.S. death penalty, restarted in 1976, has itself been a reckless 37-year campaign of corruption and power abuse. And while its use has been limited to a small minority of counties, that does not make it any less cruel, only more unusual.

White Supremacy Unaffected by Shutdown: Quota Drives Boom in Detentions of Non-White Immigrants

As of July 17, President Obama has only mentioned one potential candidate by name to be the new Secretary of Homeland Security; New York City Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly [MORE]. Racist suspect R Kelly has executed NYC's so-called Stop and Frisk policy -a racist, Nazi-like regulation designed to control the physical movements of Blacks & Latinos in total disregard of the increasingly meaningless 4th Amendment. [MORE] As you can see white people just can't get a break in Obama's America.

From [HERE] In the past five years, Homeland Security officials have jailed record numbers of immigrants, driven by a little-known congressional directive known on Capitol Hill as the “bed mandate.”

The policy requires U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to keep an average of 34,000 detainees per day in its custody, a quota that has steadily risen since it was established in 2006 by conservative lawmakers who insisted that the agency wasn’t doing enough to deport unlawful immigrants.

But as illegal crossings from Mexico have fallen to near their lowest levels since the early 1970s, ICE has been meeting Congress’s immigration detention goals by reaching deeper into the criminal justice system to vacuum up foreign-born, legal U.S. residents convicted of any crimes that could render them eligible for deportation. The agency also has greatly expanded the number of undocumented immigrants it takes into custody after traffic stops by local police.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials say that they are not needlessly jailing immigrants to meet a quota and that they find plenty of candidates for detention and deportation by targeting criminals who pose a threat to public safety and border security.

But critics of the mandate note that the majority of ICE detainees are not violent offenders. Immigration judges eventually allow many to remain in the United States, but the detainees may spend months in costly federal custody, even when far cheaper alternatives are available, such as ankle bracelets and other forms of electronic monitoring. [the Operating System (os) of White Supremacy Requires a Substantial Number of Non-Whites to be Incarcerated] [more]

A Closet Full of I'm Sorries - AIG’s Benmosche tells the Blacks: 'oops my Bad about making a reference to hanging Black men and slavery. Just trying to make a point about paying bonuses to execs'

"People who classify themselves as White, who wish to be taken seriously, and who are righteous and responsible, will only talk about ending White Supremacy (Racism) and replacing it with Justice." [more] and [more]

From [HERE] This is what American International Group Inc. (NYSE: AIG) CEO Robert H. Benmosche told The Wall Street Journal when he was asked about the public’s negative reaction to bonuses paid to executives as large U.S. financial services companies. The movement against Benmosche and his colleagues:

…was intended to stir public anger, to get everybody out there with their pitch forks and their hangman nooses, and all that–sort of like what we did in the Deep South [decades ago]. And I think it was just as bad and just as wrong.

The public reaction, and particularly the reaction of black leaders, was swift and powerfully negative. Benmosche kept quiet, a sign, perhaps, that he believed completely in what he said. The pressure on him, however, continued. He finally did what he had no choice other than to do as the CEO of a public company. He met with his most vocal opponent and sent out a press release:

I was very pleased to meet with Rep. Elijah Cummings earlier today. In our meeting, I apologized for my reference to the South and the impact that it had on him and others.

I explained to Rep. Cummings that I was responding to a reporter’s question about certain actions I felt were wrong at the time of the financial crisis: that what stood out to me was the enormous fear AIG employees felt about their safety and the safety of their families because people in positions of public responsibility were actively encouraging the vilification of our people.

I expressed my belief that people should never encourage public anger against any group — for any reason — and that the vilification of a person or a group of people is not right. It’s never right, and when it happens it should not be trivialized or dismissed lightly, as it too often was in the context of AIG. And when I referred to the South, I unintentionally trivialized a horrible legacy of our country. That was the opposite of my intent.

"No Niggers": Racist graffiti daubed on east Belfast (northern Ireland) house

From [HERE] Racist graffiti has been sprayed on a house in Bloomfield Drive, east Belfast. The slurs were painted sometime between 1 and 7am on Saturday morning.

East Belfast DUP MLA Robin Newton has described the painting as "just plain wrong" and not in keeping with the what East Belfast people (the white ones) want. He said: "This is the second such incident within recent weeks. East Belfast people are a warm and friendly and are good neighbours and want to get along with everyone." [MORE]

White Judge Finds No Smoking Gun Evidence of Racial Bias in Connecticut Death Penalty

From [HERE] There is no proof of a systemic racial disparity in the way Connecticut prosecutors have sought the death penalty, a judge ruled Friday, denying claims from five death row inmates who sought to have their sentences overturned. Rockville Superior Court Judge Samuel Sferrazza, who is white, issued his ruling in a consolidated habeas corpus appeal filed by the inmates in 2005, before the state repealed capital punishment for future cases last year.

Not only did the inmates fail to offer sufficient proof of a racial component in pursuit of the death penalty, the judge wrote, it wouldn’t be enough to force their sentences to be overturned. “The salient question is not whether race may influence death penalty outcomes in Connecticut,” Sferrazza wrote. “The critical issue is … whether the death sentence of any of the petitioners in this case was the product of intentional discrimination.”

Citing U.S. and state Supreme Court rulings, Sferrazza wrote that studies showing a systemic racial or other bias with the death penalty can be used as evidence during reviews of imposed death sentences. “However, such generic evidence, by itself, is insufficient to overturn a death sentence,” Sferrazza wrote.

Here the racist suspect judge was looking for smoking gun evidence of racism such as racial slurs by prosecutors or specific documents detailing plans to target Blacks for the death penalty. Ridiculous. The presumption is that the criminal justice system is race neutral, "fair" and free from bias. So a defendant must prove it otherwise to defeat this presumption. This is racism/deception as such admissible evidence will rarely exist.

This presumption should be reveresed to match the actual reality that we live under a racist/white supremacist operating system (OS) of oppression. Vast racial disparity evidenced by statistics should raise the presumption and the Government should be required to rebut it. The Court's fake search for truth or tangible evidence from the mind of a bigoted decision maker ignores reality. The inquiry is done only for show and is not designed to result in justice for the victims of white supremacy. Neely Fuller calls this the refinement of white supremacy. -BW  

Six of the 10 men on death row are black and three are white, while blacks make up 10 percent of the state’s population.
