It was sharpton. I will edit this post and post the quote. Crime statistics went down. I read an article within the last year discussing how police were instructed by Clinton's administration on how to doctor the reports. I doubt I can find it, so I will not pursue it. edit: not sharpton. A "Righteous Rebellion"? Things are afoot in Cincinnati. County prosecutors and federal authorities are gearing up to crack down on the rioters, authorities are downplaying the black-on-white violence, and the civil rights warlords are descending on the city. Hamilton County Prosecutor Michael Allen has put together a 17-member "riot prosecution" team to view video footage and newspaper accounts of the violence to help police make arrests. Allen has promised to pursue "hate crimes" charges against anyone who engaged in racially motivated violence. The FBI has also pledged to investigate. City officials are downplaying the "hate crimes" – but there are several newspaper reports of how white drivers were pulled from their cars and beaten. Robert Stearns, a white truck driver from Kentucky, made the mistake of getting out of his rig to check on his truck. A group of blacks tried to steal the truck and beat Stearns severely. Stearns later told a Louisville newspaper that the mob was shouting, "Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!" while his attackers took turns kicking and punching him. There was one case where an albino black woman was attacked because she was mistaken for a white woman! Roslyn Jones was driving through one of the riot-torn areas last week when she heard someone shout something about a "white girl." The black crowd, thinking Jones was white, threw bricks at her car. One of those bricks hit her in the head. Jones told the Cincinnati Enquirer, "The first piece of white skin they saw, they hit it." As of yesterday, 837 adults and juveniles had been arrested in connection with the riots. Nearly 100 of those cases will go to a grand jury as felony charges. All of this violence is what New Black Panther Party chairman Malik Zulu Shabazz calls "a righteous, divinely ordained rebellion." And the Sloganmaster himself, Jesse Jackson, is going to visit the city today. Yeah, when I see people beaten because of their skin color and businesses smashed to pieces, I think it was divinely ordained. God told those rioters to go on a violent rampage, shoot a cop, and attack white-skinned bystanders. God instructed them to loot stores – especially those selling athletic apparel – as some kind of divine vengeance for the death of a 19-year-old saint with 14 warrants for his arrest. Don't be fooled. These miscreants were just looking for an excuse to break some heads and get some revenge on Whitey.
