Jackson police are investigating a shooting that occurred around 3:30am today. A 14 year old male was found shot multiple times on Bounds St near Keele St and was pronounced deceased at the scene. Another 14 year old male was also shot multiple times at the same location but was able to go to a nearby location and ask a homeowner for help. He was transported to Blair E Batson Hospital for treatment. Both subjects had handguns that were recovered. Information gathered by investigators indicated the subjects had been breaking into cars in the area.

 

They must have broken into the wrong car.

 

This is several years old.. but I suspect the numbers have not changed all that much..

 

Wonder if George Soros funds BLM?

 

It isn't proven if he funds BLM or ANTIFA in any way. Still it's been proven he does have similar groups amongst them working his agenda. But I'm willing to bet good money once any such connections were to be confirmed Soros would quickly shift his funding to a new unknown group. So they won't be likely to say so if he was sending money their way.

 

In 1967, against a backdrop of massive civil unrest, Dr. Martin Luther King wrote Where Do We Go From Here: Chaos or Community? and called for the immediate abolition of poverty. In the richest nation in the world, King saw no justification for the evil of rampant poverty and chastised the government’s efforts against the ill as “piecemeal and pygmy.” Housing efforts were subject to the whims of the legislature, educational reforms were sluggish, and family assistance programs were neglected; all failed to reach the most profound needs of the poor. King’s economic dream was the most direct – a guaranteed income for all Americans. This week, more than 50 years later and against a similar backdrop of racial and economic unrest, we mayors are bringing that dream to life.

Economic insecurity isn’t new and poverty itself is violent. We need a policy solution that is as bold as it is innovative and as simple as it is ambitious. We must fight every day for a more just economy, because what happens to one of us happens indirectly to all of us and we are in this fight together. That’s why, as mayors of 11 American cities with a collective population of about 7 million, we are launching Mayors for a Guaranteed Income. This coalition will invest in additional guaranteed-income pilots and advocate for state and federal cash-based policies.

As leaders of our respective cities, we see firsthand how poverty and economic insecurity afflict our neighborhoods and families. Nearly 40% of Americans cannot afford a $400 emergency, and rising income inequality is compounded by a growing racial wealth gap. The median net worth of white households is 10 times that of Black households and about eight times that of Latinx households, and the wealthiest 0.1% in America own about the same amount of wealth as the bottom 90%.

For women, the stats paint an even bleaker image: women, particularly women of color, are the most likely to live in poverty and work in low-paying jobs, and are far more likely to lack access to sick leave and health care benefits. Black women are paid 62 cents for every dollar that a white male earns, and Latinx women make even less at 54 cents for every dollar a white male earns.

Now, it’s these same Americans — already working harder and harder, yet being left further and further behind — who bear the brunt of COVID-19. According to the COVID Racial Data Tracker, Black people make up 13% of the U.S. population but account for 23% of deaths where race is known.

Black and brown Americans are caught in a double bind, overrepresented both in the low-wage jobs most vulnerable to layoffs and in the jobs deemed most essential: Latinx folks constitute 54% of agricultural workers, while Black folks account for 27% of licensed practical and licensed vocational nurses. Those who haven’t been laid off are taking risks for the rest of us. Front-line workers keeping communities running at grocery stores, farms and warehouses are barely being paid a living wage.

We should not be surprised by this current reality – racial and gender disparities are what our society was structured to produce, and it’s working accordingly. But we do have the power to reverse course. How? By implementing a guaranteed income.

A guaranteed income is a monthly cash payment given directly to individuals. It is unconditional, with no strings attached and no work requirements. A guaranteed income is meant to supplement, rather than replace, the existing social safety net and can be a tool for racial and gender equity. Direct, unconditional cash gives people the freedom to spend money on their most immediate needs — be it food for their household, repairing a car to get to work, medicine to treat a loved one or simply rent.

One city has already put this idea into action. In 2019, Stockton, Calif., launched the nation’s first mayor-led guaranteed-income demonstration, with the Stockton Economic Empowerment Demonstration (SEED) giving 125 randomly selected recipients $500 a month for 24 months. The cash is unconditional, with no strings attached and no work requirements. Early data from the program proves what we’ve intuitively known to be true: that people are working but the economy isn’t. And because SEED’s recipients are people like you and us, they’re spending the money like you and we would: on basic needs like food, transportation, utilities and rent.

Following in SEED’s footsteps, Mayor Baraka (Newark, N.J.) launched a task force and released a report calling for a pilot and a federal guaranteed-income policy. Mayor Lumumba (Jackson, Miss.) is supportive of the Magnolia Mother’s Trust, a non-government program that gives $1,000 a month to Black mothers living in extreme poverty. Mayor Carter (St. Paul, Minn.) issued a one-time cash infusion of $1,000 to about 1,250 families with children in response to COVID-19. Mayor Garcetti’s (Los Angeles) Angeleno Campaign provided prepaid debit cards of $700 to $1,500 to residents whose total household income fell below the poverty line before COVID-19. And Mayor Brown (Compton, Calif.) announced a partnership with the nonprofit Give Directly, which gives cash directly to people living in poverty, to distribute $1,000 to families that receive food stamps benefits.

Today, we mayors are uniting to send a clear message: our residents deserve economic security through a guaranteed income. We are calling on legislators to wake up to Dr. King’s dream for a federal guaranteed income that will put cash back into the hands of everyday Americans. Faced again with the question of chaos or community, we’re choosing the latter – it’s time to invest directly in our communities and our people.

We welcome all U.S. mayors to join our coalition to strengthen all our communities by supplementing the existing social safety net and driving forward this powerful tool for racial and gender equity.

 

NYC Black grandmother of 1 year-old shot to death in his stroller has these words about BLM:
"Everybody talks about Black Lives Matter - what about Baby Lives? What about Teenager Lives?"
Of course, this grieving family gets no help from Deblasio - he's busy painting BLM in the streets and crippling his own police force.

BLM and the Left stir up the violence and anti-police sentiment, then walk away whistling, and Libtards defend them.

 

Shooter just read that John Elway (yes, THAT John Elway) announced that:
A) the National Anthem would be played at all games the Broncos participated in, not the "black anthem"
B) No employee will kneel during opening ceremonies.

Any employee or player violating these policies will be fired and escorted out.

You go John!

 

... and the Left sends the Memo out to all Libtards:
Re: Cancel John Elway...

 

Wonder if there is any city in the U.S. where the police have killed more blacks than blacks have killed other blacks?
We may have to put the KKK back in service to do battle with the BLM.

 

Fuck BLM!

Black Lives Matter is a Marxist regime bent on overtaking America.

I am for black lives. I love black lives. I want black lives to stop taking black lives.

I am against Marxism. And BLM IS MARXIST!

we can stop racism without turning our country into a Totalitarian regime.

I am for black people but will fight BLM!

 

Asheville City Council apologized for its role in slavery and racial discrimination, voting unanimously to provide reparations in the form of community investments to help Black residents.
The council voted 7-0 on Tuesday night on the measure to mitigate racial disparities. The reparations will not provide direct cash payments, as some have suggested, but will provide investments in housing, health care and career growth in Black neighborhoods.

Councilwoman Shaneika Smith, who is Black, said the council had gotten emails from those "asking, 'Why should we pay for what happened during slavery?'

 

The California Faculty Association is demanding free college tuition for Black and Indigenous students and asking armed police to be removed across the state’s campuses.

The association, a union for faculty in the California State University system, released an eight-page paper with these demands and more, titled “California Faculty Association statement of anti-racism and social justice demands in the wake of anti-black racism, violence, and murder.”

“The US is a racialized society based on white supremacy where opportunities, resources, power and human rights are structured by race to privilege whiteness, one where race structures disadvantages such as poverty, barriers to opportunity and power, and failure to recognize humanity, resulting in a racial hierarchy,” said Sharon Elise, vice president of the California Faculty Association.

 

A sculpture of a Black Lives Matter protester installed without authorization on the site where a monument to a 17th-century parliamentarian and slave trader was ripped down by protesters last month was taken down by the city after just one day, according to a report.

City workers carefully removed the statue of Jen Reid at dawn Thursday after it had been erected early Wednesday morning without the approval or knowledge of the city of Bristol in southwest England, the New York Times reported.

 

What about affirmative action? What about the facts that Jews and Orientals faced persecution and discrimination, and today tend to be more prosperous that white Gentiles?

This is the reason for the racial hierarchy:

The average IQ for African Americans was found to be lower than those for Latino, White, Asian, and Jewish Americans (85, 89, 103, 106, and 115, respectively...

Lidarious Dixon is back on the street after serving less than three years in prison. Dixon was linked to the murder of 23-year old Chelsie Kirschten on August 17, 2017 at the intersection of Fortification and North State Streets in Jackson.

A jury convicted Dixon of conspiracy to commit armed robbery and attempted armed robbery last August. However, the Mississippi Parole Board paroled Dixon just a few months later. Dixon became a free man in January.


JPD arrested Nicholas Coats, Lidarious Dixon, and Jushun Paige for Kirschten's murder and trying to rob the passenger in her car. JPD reported in August 2017:

Coats testified Dixon sat in the back seat of the car while Jushun "Red" Paige was the shooter. Coats testified he drove the car as it pulled up next to Kirschten's car. Coats pleaded guilty to second-degree murder on December 6, 2018. Circuit Judge Jeff Weill sentenced Coats to serve forty years in prison but suspended ten years of the sentence.

A Hinds County jury convicted Dixon of conspiracy to commit armed robbery of Lauren Brown on August 8, 2019. Ms. Brown was a passenger in the car with the deceased. The jury acquitted Dixon of capital murder. Judge Adrienne Whooten sentenced Dixon to serve 5 years in prison but gave him credit for time served (710 days). Dixon has been incarcerated since JPD arrested him on August 29, 2017.

The Mississippi Parole Board granted parole to Dixon in December. The District Attorney nor did the victim, Lauren Brown, oppose parole. She did not even enroll in the victim notification system.

The trial for the last capital murder suspect, Jushun "Red" Paige, is supposed to start next week. The case is assigned to Circuit Judge Winston Kidd.

 

What makes this whole talk about reparations for slavery even more idiotic. Is the simple fact even as bad as they claim things are for blacks in this country. Their lives are still a thousand times better than they could expect if they lived in almost every nation in Africa.

 

Isn't the new "Black Jesus" for the left Joe Biden???


Plane Was Forced to Turn Around After Deranged Passenger Threatened to Kill Everyone on Board if They Didn’t Accept a Black Jesus

On July 13, 2020, an Alaska Airlines flight was forced to make an emergency landing at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport after a passenger threatened to kill everyone on board.

A King County judge set bail for Michael Ney Berry, who is being held on a $100,000 bond at the King County jail, where he received charges for felony assaults.

The Alaska Airlines flight was originally destined for Chicago O’Hare.



According to officials from the Port of Seattle, the incident took place about 20 minutes following the plane’s departure.

Port of Seattle Police arrested the man without resistance once the plane landed and was subsequently booked into the King County Jail for harassment.

According to a report from Alaska Airlines, Berry became “extremely belligerent and physically aggressive during the ascent.” An airline spokesperson claimed that the man was quickly apprehended by the flight crew and two passengers including a law enforcement officer who was also on the flight.

Video footage of the incident depicted the man yelling, “I’m going to kill everybody on this plane. Die in the name of Jesus!”

The video footage also showed two passengers quickly restraining the man.

A passenger informed KOMO News that one of the men who detained Berry is actually a police officer in Chicago. The passenger believes both men who stepped up to restrain the man are heroes.

After the passengers restrained Berry, a flight attendant went on the loudspeaker and announced that the plane was landing at the nearest airport. The attendant reassured passengers “we have everything under control.”

Alaska Airlines reported that the flight was cancelled, and all passengers were re-booked on the next flight to Chicago.

 

No wonder he wants to defund the police.....


MORE SEX CRIME: Defund the Police Activist Arrested, Charged With Six Counts of Child Pornography

Jul 16, 2020

Richard Moorhead




A prominent New Hampshire Defund the Police and Black Lives Matter activist was arrested and charged with possession of child pornography last week. Chris DeVries is also being charged for possession of hallucinogenic mushrooms and falsification of physical evidence, which Jackson, New Hampshire police claim is a result of the progressive activist attempting to chuck away his cell phone when law enforcement arrived at his residence.

DeVries is known as the ‘rolling protestor’ in Carroll County, New Hampshire having organized an anti-police protest on Father’s Day in which skateboarders and bicyclists rode down a state highway. The Black Lives Matter protest was termed “Skate Against the Hate.”

“I feel like this is one of the best things I can do as a father on Father’s Day,” said DeVries last month. “I want to live in a world where racism is not accepted or tolerated, and I don’t want to live in a community or know there are communities in this country where people are afraid of their local police.”


“If we divest funds from police and prison systems we all benefit.” said the leftist activist at the time. Certainly, those charged with sex offenses and detained in the jail system would benefit from the abolition of both, to the detriment of society.

DeVries is also a town official for Conway, New Hampshire, serving on the town’s municipal budget committee.

Jackson police chief Chris Perley is alleging that internet forensics experts utilized by the police force have discovered more than sixty images of child sexual abuse on DeVries’ cell phone.

“I can’t comment on this case specifically or Mr. DeVries as he is a charged criminal defendant pending adjudication and presumed innocent until proven guilty,” Perley told the Conway Daily Sun. “But I can say that generally speaking, people should be very cautious about listening to voices suggesting defunding of the police because their motives are not always in the best interest of society.”

Every count of child pornography possession is punishable by up to 15 years in prison, but it’s doubtful DeVries would face the maximum sentence if convicted. He’s plead not guilty to all eight criminal charges and is being held without bail as of Thursday.

A convicted child rapist was recently arrested for a brutal on-camera assault at an Olympia, Washington ANTIFA left-wing protest.

 

Let's just take reparations back to the beginning of time. There is no faultless nation anywhere, anytime. Making everybody pay something to whoever they have wronged would be an accounting nightmare, and I suspect after all the figuring, we'd be back where we are now. Since the Jews were the first slaves, then they need to get a huge payout. Who's going to pay? The Egyptians? Good luck.

The African leaders who jumped into bed with slave traders to sell their countrymen into slavery certainly have to pay a huge share - they sold out their own people for a few dollars. It's an ugly history that the proponents of reparations completely ignore.

Since the question can be asked, "Where does it end?", the only viable answer is "It never starts."

I refuse to pay for what some other people did hundreds of years ago. So should everyone.

Sorry!
