The Un-Incident

Joe Doakes from Como Park emails:

Two 70-year-old ladies sitting on the porch at 800 Carroll had to dive to the floor to avoid 40 shots fired at their house, which is on the south side of I-94, by Marshall and Dayton, so it’s not Frogtown proper. But the behavior is the same. The plague of violence is spreading.

A Saint Paul City Councilmember says this incident reminds him of Night Riders but those were White KKK members terrorizing Blacks. Is there even the tiniest shred of evidence any White people were behind this shooting? Because if not – if this was another Black-on-Black gang retaliation incident like the Nizzel George shooting – then Councilmember Khaliq just slandered me and I resent it.

There’s a problem in the Black community all right, but I think Councilmember Khaliq needs to take a good hard look at who’s causing it. Right now, he’s looking for blame in all the wrong places. The Truth Shall Set Him Free.

Which is why so little truth actually filters out anymore.

  1. Consider yourselves lucky Kahliq didn’t try to blame it on George Zimmerman. Say — did the old ladies just return from the store with iced tea and skittles? Were they wearing hoodies?

  2. I suppose I take it a different way, Joe. I’ll give the benefit of ‘a lot’ of doubt that Councilmember Khaliq has “memories” of Night Riders (I’m imagining that his “memories” are like President Bill Clintons “memories” of church burnings in Arkansas). If anything Mr Khaliq is ‘calling out’ the shooters and comparing them to white men who terrorized blacks in the South back when the Democrats were the majority party in the South (and Klan membership was a prerequisite for leadership in the Democrat Party).
    Is it some kind of odd ‘reverse psychology’? It’s not the first time a Democrat politician has used ‘acting white’ as a perjorative term. And the Councilmember need not worry that the Democrat Dominated Media Culture will question him on it. As their support of the Obama campaign / agenda shows, their okay with this kind of racism so long as it slanders the gun nuts and TEA baggers.
