[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before the Dallas shootings, the New York Times was prominently featuring this rage-filled and hateful article by a black Georgetown professor, full of venom directed at "white America," on its web page:

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/10/opinion/sunday/what-white-america-fails-to-see.html?mabReward=A5&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&region=CColumn&module=Recommendation&src=rechp&WT.nav=RecEngine&_r=0

After the shootings, the Times starting to bury the article, and no longer feature it on its web page.

It's a disgraceful, overtly racist article that, at least in my opinion, should never have been published and ought to lead to Georgetown's promptly severing any and all ties with Mr. Dyson.  It is inconceivable that the Times would have printed any article by a white author purporting to diagnose the pathologies of "Black America," "Hispanic America," or "Jewish America" in such broad, crude terms.  But it was happy to print Dyson's article.  The rich liberals who run the Times need to take a hard look at themselves now and ask whether they have promoted racial discord and violence, by publishing such vile drivel. [/quote]

No, OP. The NYT didn't incite anything. Nor did it "bury" anything -- content loses freshness after time and is replaced with newer content.

Let's keep the focus on where it belongs: Badly trained and trigger happy police forces that disproportionately target black people for violence. Thank you for your cooperation in that.[/quote]

Should blacks stop being policed? You say disproportionately target. What is the correct ratio for you? What guidelines would you give departments? I'm sure they are weary of this too. Should black motorists get a pass? Should black neighborhoods be left unpoliced? If a black suspect is called in as often happens with DC street robberies, let it go? I am guessing in a city like DC - the majority of people arrested are AA. A disproportionate amount of AA poor compared to non AA or rich. How do we get those numbers down to your satisfaction? I am ot being facetious - just what exactly do you desire on that issue from the police?

And by the way, I totally get it raising revenue from petty crimes and I am very sympathetic to that. But your rhetoric demands more than not issuing jaywalking tickets to blacks in small towns, or is it that simple? [/quote]
