Bad Timing, Dyson

January 5, 2017

In a break with tradition, the corporate media has not only noticed but is actually reporting on four black brutes in Chicago who kidnapped and tortured a “special-needs” white kid while livestreaming their atrocities on Facebook:

The footage shows the attackers cutting the victim’s hair with a knife until his scalp bled and slashing his clothes. He was also repeatedly slapped and cigarette ashes were thrown at him.

“F–k Donald Trump, n—a, f–k white people!” one of the suspects can be heard telling the man in the video, which was livestreaming for roughly 30 minutes.

“I should knock your a– the f–k out right now,” he says. “Stand up, boy!”

“My sister said this is not funny, y’all,” says the girl behind the camera, who can be seen puffing on a cigar and laughing as the mayhem unfolds.

“S–t, it’s funny to me,” one of the suspects replies. “Tell Donald Trump it’s not funny.”

Commenting on the man’s wounds, one person can be heard saying, “Your s–t is leaking.”

Another tells the man, “Kiss the floor, b—h!” and “Nobody can help you anymore.”

Nor had the quartet exhausted their brutality: another video shows them forcing their 18-year-old prey to drink from a toilet.

Through no genius on the cops’ part (they “said they had found [the victim] walking on a street” after fleeing his assailants), the police have already arrested the four thugs (no word yet on whether any of them “work” for the TSA). Then Chicago’s Finest resumed their no-genius vein: “Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said” that the department does “not believe the victim was targeted because of his race or because of a political affiliation…”

Clearly, Ant’ny’s gunning for detective. Meanwhile, “former Chicago police officer Dimitri Roberts” opined, “This is hate. And hate doesn’t have a color…” I guess Dimitri didn’t get the memo that “hate” is always white.

Coincidentally, the New York Slimes previewed an upcoming book by a guy who bills himself as “a prominent black intellectual.” Michael Erik Dyson’s Tears We Cannot Stop: A Sermon to White America (what absolute arrogance…) “talk[s] about making reparations on the local and individual level: donating to groups like the United Negro College Fund or a scholarship program…”

Yeah, yeah, I know: you’d think an “intellectual” would quail to present such greedy nonsense as “white people who never owned slaves paying black folks who never picked cotton,” as the T-shirt famously has it. How “intellectual” are you if a slogan that fits on an article of clothing effortlessly defeats your argument? No matter: our feckless author proposes another, more personal option: compensating “’the black person who cuts your grass double what you might ordinarily pay.’” He recommends “an individual reparations account. You ain’t got to ask the government, you don’t have to ask your local politician — this is what you, an individual, conscientious, ‘woke’ citizen can do.”

Much as I admire Dyson’s initiative in bypassing the State, this citizen will continue her snooze: I can’t imagine insulting a kid who’s worked hard to cut my lawn with charity.

Got a deal for you, Dyson. How’s about you give up demanding “reparations” from modern white Americans, none of whom ever owned slaves, and we won’t begin demanding them from black Americans, all but four of whom are innocent of torturing a boy in Chicago?
