Stop Fixating on Black Violence -- If You Can

 American Thinker ^ | 5/4/2015 

Bill Moyers and Ta-Nehisi Coates really wish everybody would stop fixating on black violence and concentrate instead on what causes it: relentless white racism that can only be cured with copious quantities of cash for programs and reparations.

Though that is probably redundant.
But Bill and Ta-Nehisi have a problem: there is just so much to fixate on. Even as all eyes were on Baltimore and the networks paraded one talking head after another explaining why black people are so violent and why they are so happy the six cops were arrested for killing a prisoner, more violence just kept erupting around the country.
Largely unnoticed.
In the Baltimore suburb of Dundalk the night before Riot Week began, 20 black people attacked an old white dude after he asked them to stop fighting and destroying property in front of his house. He is in coma and in critical condition, so he could not hear how the reporters thought this case of black on white violence, so common in Baltimore, was so irrelevant to their narrative of black victimization.
And oh yeah, that had been happening there a long time.
Anyone remember Maryland state legislator Pat McDonough calling on then-Governor O’Malley to declare downtown Baltimore a No-Travel Zone because black people were terrorizing tourists there? Or how about the black gang that took over the Baltimore jail, running it for years before anyone noticed? Or all the cases of black on white violence on video, some gruesome, some fatal, all deemed insignificant?
None of the reporters did.
About the same time in that center of racial violence, Altoona, PA a large group of blacks attacked the manager of a McDonald’s after he started taking pictures of them attacking his customers.
And oh yeah, that had been happening there a long time.
