BigboreshooterFlorida looting crackdown is 'white supremacy'
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017...hor-sarah-jaffe.html An author and journalist came under fire on social media Monday, after she tweeted a reply to an anti-looting warning from Miami police by saying: "The carceral state... is inseparable from white supremacy."
The Miami Police Department took to Twitter on Sunday, as Hurricane Irma battered the state. "Thinking about looting? Ask these guys how that turned out. #stayindoors," the post read, sharing a photo of people inside a jail cell.
Though Sarah Jaffe’s tweet on Monday garnered 1,500 likes, it sparked more than 100 comments -- many of which were critical and accused her of being racist.
"They have prisons, crime, and private property in Nigeria too," one user wrote. "And Egypt. And India. Nothing to do with white supremacy. Poverty/inequality."
"So you'd be ok with someone breaking into your house and stealing all your stuff to avoid a 'carceral state'?" another asked.
Someone replying to Jaffe said, "You're saying non-whites can't help but steal, so they shouldn't be punished? Seriously? Keep your racist opinions to yourself. #ShameOnYou."
Jaffe is the author of the book "Necessary Trouble: Americans in Revolt." The book's website says it focuses on various movements, including Black Lives Matter and the Tea Party.
Her online bio lists her as "an independent journalist covering labor, economic justice, social movements, politics, gender, and pop culture."
Later Monday, Jaffe tweeted that "every now and then I check replies on my tweets and confirm why I have the quality filter on: that s---'s full of nazis."

Elk HunterAnd the sad part is these uneducated fools actually believe that shit, and sadder is that they are getting it in school.
Which does not surprise me in the slightest as destruction of the schools is one of the things that has to happen to destroy a representative democracy.

RogBUnless, of course, a gang of white thugs are looting a black owned business. I suppose she wouldn't want the cops to interfere. Ya think?

shovelheadIt's all fun and games until the SHTF in her bubble world. THEN she will be crying for blood.
So in her warped sense of rationalization the destruction and carnage associated with the racial unrest and subsequent riots that occurred in the 1960's in cities was justified?
And it was racist in her opinion that the authorities took charge and put an end to it?
Her online bio lists her as "an independent journalist covering labor, economic justice, social movements, politics, gender, and pop culture.
I can understand why she is an independent journalist, she is too batshit crazy to work for any person or organization.

"Economic justice" is code for "From each according to his ability, to each according to his need (or needs)."
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown September 13, 2017, 09:07 AM

You may be on to something. When will we see a hurricane named L'Shundarius?

rburgI think she's right.
The "minority" population is often quoted as being 12%, yet over half of the crimes are committed by those same people. Often by the male members, 6%. FL's stand your ground law was designed to mostly allow the shooting of members of that same 6%. Its racist I tell you. Allowing the white folks to shoot them at will. Open season after a hurricane! All because the white folks have discriminated against them by passing laws that make them criminals and targets.
Worse, its how Treyvon Martin got his ass blasted and the evil white guy who was getting his head bashed in just went ahead and blasted his ass away. Whoops, the unarmed teenager, the one doing the bashing.
I think Para may be wrong and this whole mess is about to break out in open warfare. When the BLM starts rioting and burning white neighborhoods, they may find whitey can be as aggressive as the Koreans in LA. Sure, the pussified folks in gun restrictive places have mostly had their balls cut off and can't protect themselves. But us honkey's in the free states have both guns and an attitude. And its all because we grew up white.

egregoreI had to look up what a "carceral state" even is. My spell checker doesn't even recognize it as a word.

WoodmanThe prison state is wrong but her people stealing those others who have more is ok?
Say that to the Section 8 porch loafers, and they's say, "Damn straight".The whole 'racism' angle only works for her as long as it works to her benefit.
