BLM invade posh Beverley Hills as baby killed in another Chicago drive-by shooting

The latest death has stunned authorities accustomed to rampant gun violence in America’s third-largest city

 

Black Liives Matter mobsters invaded weathy Californian city Beverley Hills yesterday, chanting “Eat The Rich!” “Abolish capitalism now,”: and other threatening slogans. The crowd, mostly white kids from affluent backgrounds according to witnesses, dispersed quickly when riot police arrived. Residents of the city which is home to many of the Hollywood celebrities who have been vociferous in their support of the neo – fascist movement commented that it was noticable the cops were not so quick on the scence and were far less effective when BLM mobs were burning and looting poor neighbourhoods BLM Invades Beverly Hills – Then The Cops Showed Up.

However, the latest death of an innocent person unlucky enough to be caught in the wrong place as Chicago’s gangs wahed their brutal, senseles turf wars has stunned authorities accustomed to rampant gun violence in America’s third.-largest city.

A one-year-old boy was shot dead and his mother wounded on Saturday in a Chicago drive-by shooting. The 22-year-old mother was driving home on Saturday afternoon when the attacker pulled alongside her car and fired several shots, striking the infant in the chest and grazing her head, police said.It is not known if the mother was involved in some way with one of the city’s notorious gangs or if it was a case of mistaken identity.

“This kind of attack is happening far too often,” Chicago police operations chief Fred Waller told reporters near where the shooting took place in the city’s south. When is this going to stop? When are we gonna say enough is enough?”

The incident came a week after the shooting death of three-year-old Mekhi James, who died in similar circumstances while travelling in a car with his father on the city’s west side.

Interviewed for BBC Television’s Andrew Marr Show shortly after news of the Chicago shooting broke Dr. Ben Carson, Housing and Urban Development Secretary in The Trump Administration and one of the USA’s most influential black conservatives, after heading off an attempt by Marr to brand Trump a racist, told British viewers he was constantly disappointed by incidents of black – on – black violence and urged anti racism protesters not to be seduced by those who are trying to “divide and conquer” the country by pitting Americans against one another.

“We need to recognize that we, the American people, are not each other’s enemies,” Carson told his left leaning interviewer.

“We should not succumb to those who are trying to make us believe that we are enemies, to divide and conquer,” he said. “I’ve never seen a situation where violence, activity of this nature accomplishes something good, it only accomplishes bad.”

The message Carson and Trump and anybody else across the political spectrum in America or Europe ought to be sending to the Black Lives Matter mobs is this:

Whites people are not the problem. White privilege and white supremacism are not the problem. The problem is believing the lie that blaming “whites” for all your problems will solve your problems is the problem.

22 police officers injured by BLM mob as London street party erupts into violence

An impromptu block party in Brixton, South London, descended into anarchy, after police called to the scene were assaulted and chased away. Twenty-two officers were injured in the resulting mayhem.

Cops were pelted with bottles and other projectiles on arrival at the scene near the Angell Town housing project in Brixton.

Footage posted to social media shows a large column of law enforcement officers facing off with the crowd as they attempt to pull back.

In one video, a shirtless man can be seen standing on top of a police car as he smashes the vehicle’s windshield with a broken-off table leg. A police van was also chased and attacked by the mob.

The Metropolitan Police Service said it had been called to the area due to noise and public safety complaints, but that the crowd had refused to cooperate. Elements eventually became “hostile” towards officers, it explained. … Continue reading >>>

 

British school girl viciously beaten by pair of ‘BAME’ teens – This Is The Real BLM

A few days ago this blog reported an incident linked to a Black Lives Matter even in Melbourne, Australia, in which a gang of eight Africans (west African judging by their accents,) mercilessly kicked and punched a 16 year old girl who was alone. She did not try to fight, she did not insult them, she pleaded with them to leave her alone because she had done nonthing to them. And the more she begged the more frenzied and merciless the attack became..
Protesting against racism? We only have to look at the way these animals behave to see who are the real racists. It is not the white people on the receiving end of BLM mob violence. It is not the decent, tolerant black and Asian people who have worked hard and developed career or built up independent businesses who are protesting, they are having to stand by and watch police to nothing and politicians make mealy mouthed apoligies for things that happened centuries ago as their cars are burned, their homes are vandalised and their businesses are looted .

Yesterday we were once again treated to the sickening spectacle of footballers kneeling (a symbol of surrender,) to “show respect” for the violent thugs of Black Lives Matter and being praised for their “courage” by mainstream media and politicians, when in fact what they did is an act of cowardice. And to add insult to injury the media and authorities went into a frenzy because some Burnley supporter flew a small aircraft pulling a banner bearing the message “White Lives Matter” above the stadium  before Burnley’s game with Manchester City. Apparently it is not racist to display  wordsBlack Lives Matter but in Britain in the year 2020 it is unacceptable and according to police may be illegal to dispay the message White Lives Matter.
Why? Because it might upset the Black Lives Matter racist thugs apparently.
And yet we white people are expected to ignore incidents like this:

British school girl viciously beaten by pair of ‘BAME’ teens (VIDEO)

by Arthur Lyons for Voice Of Europe

Disturbing video footage has emerged which shows a 14-year-old school girl being brutally beaten by a pair of ‘BAME’ teens in a park in Birmingham.

The attack, which took place in Sheldon Country Park at about 7:30pm last Saturday, resulted in the victim suffering facial injuries and severe bruising, the Birmingham Mail reports.

Apparently, a 12-year-old girl who was with the victim was also threatened by the two violent teens. The vicious attack ended after a young male passer-by intervened.

On Wednesday, West Midlands Police announced that the two perpetrators in the video had been arrested.

In a tweet, the police wrote: “Officers investigating an attack on a 14-year-old girl in Sheldon Country Park, The Radleys, on Saturday, have today arrested two girls.”

“The girls aged 12 and 13 were held over the assault which saw one teen left with facial injuries and bruising and another girl threatened.”

Pandering To Black Lives Matter Agitators Will Further Alienate White Working Class.

With every Tom Dick and Harry, particularlt the dicks, “taking the knee,” ignorantly believing that such a medieval symbol of submission and servitude will somehow earn them politically correct brownie points with the wannabe conquerors of western civilisation something has to give. There are signs that the patience of the white working class is wearing thin. If the government do got act quickly to put the racist mobs of BLM supporters back in their cages it’s all going to get bloody, very bloody.

 

 

 

Support BLM? This Is What You Are Supporting

So you support BLM, you want the world to know what a good, caring person you are and how ashamed you feel about something that happened two or three hundred years ago. Well good for you, but do you know what you are really supporting, do you know what those spineless cops who knelt in front of a mob of thugs whose sole aim is to destroy civilised societies were supporting?  

This atrocity, in which a gang of eight BLM supporters, Africans I’d guess by their accents, gang up on an inoffensive 16 year old girl simply becaused she is white. The incident occurred in Melbourne last weekend as part of the BLM hysteria sweeping Western democracies. Not how nobody stepped in to help the girl because people are so afraid of being called racists that they tolerate this kind of treatment of a defenceless girl by a gang of lowlife black scum. It is truly horrifying, the more so because it has been totally blanked out by mainstream media. Yet Australian police have said they will take no action as that might inflkame inter – racial tensions. Please do not watch the video if you are easily upset by graphic violence.

Shocking Evidence Suggests Coordinated Effort To Orchestrate An Uprising Inside The United States

Authored by Michael Snyder via TheMostImportantNews.com,
via Zero Hedge

Violence has erupted in major cities all over America yet again today, and we are being told to brace ourselves for more rioting, looting and civil unrest in the days ahead.  The death of George Floyd was a great tragedy, and the vast majority of Americans agree that we do not want to see that sort of police brutality in our nation, and so this should actually be a moment that brings our country together.  But instead, America is being torn apart.  The protests against police brutality have been hijacked by sinister forces, and they are attempting to channel the outrage over George Floyd’s death in a very violent direction.  As you will see below, law enforcement authorities all over the U.S. are telling us that they have identified a highly organized effort to orchestrate violence, and this appears to be happening on a nationwide basis.

Let’s start by looking at what is happening in New York.  According to the top terrorism official in the entire city, “certain anarchist groups”  were making preparations for “violent interactions with police” before protests in the city even began…

On Sunday night, New York’s top terrorism cop, Deputy Commissioner for Intelligence and Counterterrorism John Miller, detailed his office’s analysis and investigation into why the New York City protests have become so violent and damaging at times.

“No. 1, before the protests began,” Miller said, “organizers of certain anarchist groups set out to raise bail money and people who would be responsible to be raising bail money, they set out to recruit medics and medical teams with gear to deploy in anticipation of violent interactions with police.”

And once the protests started, these groups used “a complex network of bicycle scouts” to direct rioters to locations where police officers would not be present…

“And they developed a complex network of bicycle scouts to move ahead of demonstrators in different directions of where police were and where police were not for purposes of being able to direct groups from the larger group to places where they could commit acts of vandalism including the torching of police vehicles and Molotov cocktails where they thought officers would not be.”

These are not just mindless angry mobs.  They are being directed with a purpose, and that is very alarming … Continue reading >>>

Left-Wing Journalist on Sweden’s Migrant Suburbs: “Everyone Knew it Would End in Disaster”

A well known left-wing journalist in Sweden who has been one of the biggest advocates of uncontrolled mas immigration appears to have performed a U turn on the issue, or is at least endeacouring to achieve the impossible feat of riding two horses with one arse. Aftonbladet’s Lena Mellin is now admitting that when it came to Sweden’s crime-ridden no-go areas, “everyone knew it [the open doors immigrstion policy] would end in disaster.”

Mellin now acknowledges that the attempt by Sweden’s far left Social Democrat government to replace the ethnic Swede majority with third world migrants has failed. The forlon hope that huge numbers of migrants from Africa and the Middle East has failed. These people come from tribal and theocratic societies and have been at each other’ throts for thousands of years in their homelands, what kind of deluded, sociopathic fat left idiot do you have to be to think that dumping them in LiberalSweden where, by the standards of their homelands, they can live like kings on the free money the generous social welfare system grants them.

With no need to think about earning a living the migrants have occupied themselves with drug dealing, pimping, people trafficking and protection racketeering among other criminal activities.

“All parties, with the possible exception of the Left Party and the Sweden Democrats [SD], who hardly affected the reality on this point, should be ashamed,” writes 64-year-old Mellin. She accuses politicians of having “largely neglected the development in some of our suburbs” despite the fact that “everyone knew it would end in disaster.”

Numerous commentators called out Mellin’s hypocrisy in admitting she knew integration was failing yet still refusing to renounce her support for the government’s mass immigration program, which many leftists have admitted, aimes to make Sweden a migrant majority nation. It is likely that she would reply by complaining that the government did not throw enough money at the migrants in order to help them integrate.

“Incredible! Lena Mellin, of all journalists, one of the foremost advocates for mass immigration and multiculturalism, one of the worst SD-haters, claims that ‘one has known for years’ that it would go to hell,” tweeted Ted Ekeroth.

“For more than a decade Sweden’s ruling class — including political leaders and the media — has denied that there are any problems in the country’s banlieues caused by the mass importation of Third World immigrants. Except for problems caused by those WAYCIST Swedes, of course,” writes the Gates of Vienna blog.

“Now it seems that the truth about the ‘cultural enrichment’ (i.e. rape, sexual assault, people shitting in the stret, organised crime, gunfights,) has become so blatant that it can no longer be denied. The response of the Swedish media establishment? “We knew all along that things would end badly; we just forgot to tell you.” And they blame the politicians.”

Many on the right of the political spectrum are saying Sweden ought to follow the example srt by Norway and, in defiance of politiclly correct edicts from the EU, should begin gathering statistics on criminals’ ethnicity. Eurosceptic, anti – immigration party, The Sweden Democrats and the Conservatives have urged the government to dump its policy of not revealing the ethnic or religious background of criminals and crime suspects. However, Justice Minister Morgan Johansson of the ruling Socialist Democrat Party dismissed the demand as “poisonous rhetoric,” Swedish national broadcaster SVT reported.

Meanwhile several rapes of European women by “men of African or midddle eastern appearance are reported every day in thye once safe and peaceful nation.

Unlike Sweden, Norway never abandoned the practice of mapping out criminals’ ethnicity, reports indicate that migrants and their locally-born children are far more likely to perpetrate crimes than the rest of the population, and are also far more likely to be unemployed. In Sweden, no such study has been carried out since 2005, before the EU backed ‘open doors’ immigration policy and other virtue signalling policies such as not punishing immigrants for serious crimes, “because they don’t understand Swedish culture,” began to seriously disrupt the social nsystem in Swedish towns. Immigration into Scandinavia’s largest country country also accelerated to tens of thousands per year.

“People with backgrounds from Africa, parts of Asia and Latin America are most drastically overrepresented,” Synøve Andersen, researcher at Statistics Norway (SSB) told SVT, commenting on the latest crime report. Migrants show passports from Iraqi and Syrian fellow travellers they have to present to buy ferry tickets for their passage to Sweden

According to SSB, the proportion of the Norwegian population of European ethnicity suspected of crimes is 4.5 percent in a demographic representing the bulk of the population (i.e. those without immigrant background), 6.7 percent among immigrants and a staggering 11.3 percent among the children of immigrants, which astounded Norwegian researchers.

In terms of violent and domestic abuse, the differences between immigrants and others are still bigger: 11.2 permille for immigrants and 22.9 permille for children of immigrants versus 6.3 permille for the rest of the population, according to the Norwegian study. “This is a result that shows something we clearly need to learn more about,” Synøve Andersen told SVT.

The report also showed marked differences between various types of immigrants. The Authorities in Malmo responded by inviting local gang leaders for pizza, while the Swedish government recently announced it would commit $175,000 to funding Drag Queen Story Time events where men dressed as women read and perform to children.

Despite the remarkable findings from Norway and other neighboring countries, Denmark and Finland, Swedish Justice Minister Morgan Johansson dismissed the possibility of conducting a similar study in Sweden, amid its ever-changing ethnic landscape.

“It does not matter to me if you are black or white, once you commit a crime you should be punished, that’s my starting point,” Johansson told SVT. Johansson claimed previous surveys indicated that migrants’ overrepresentation disappeared once socio-economic factors and age are not taken into consideration. Statements from whistleblowers in Sweden’s Police Forces suggest morale amonmg officers is at an all time low because courts refuse to punish African and middle eastern criminals to “avoid creating inter – racial tensions”.

So the Justice Minister is talking bollocks, THE COLOUR OF A CRIME SUSPECTS SKIN DOES MATTER.

Barcelona mayhem: Clashes with police as ‘half a million’ pro-independence supporters rally amid general strike

Amid all the huffing and puffing, supreme court meddling in politics, undemocratic behaviour of democratically elected representatives and that twunt Corbyn trying and almost succeeding in the feat of riding two horses with one arse, we have forgotten that other nations in Europe have having their own struggles over independence versus federalism, national sovereignty and mass immigration.

A huge crowd with Catalan flags has paralyzed central Barcelona as people from all across the region protested the harsh prison sentences for pro-independence leaders by the Spanish court and called for parting ways with Madrid, RT.com writes.

The police estimated that at least 525,000 turned up in the center of Barcelona, local media cited law enforcement. “Independence,”“The streets will be ours” and “Freedom to political prisoners” were among the chants heard at the massive gathering.

The rally continued more or less peacefully for a few hours, but was eventually marred by more serious violence as some of the protesters started building barricades and setting garbage containers on fire. They tossed stones and other foreign objects at the riot police, who were seen firing back – presumably using rubber bullets or other projectiles – and charging at the rioters with batons.

Some of those, involved in clashes with police, were said to be right-wing thugs, who actually oppose the Catalan independence. The footage from the scene showed people carrying Spanish national flags and giving Nazi salutes.

As night fell, some of the sites of the clashes resembled a war zone, with burning barricades, rubble everywhere and clouds of thick white smoke in the air.

Violent episodes may attract media attention, but they’re just a small part of the picture, Toni Casserras from the Catalan ‘Free People’ party told RT. The majority of the pro-independence activists believe in peaceful civil disobedience and they will keep going out into the streets.

“The protests [in Catalonia]are being sustained for several years and – despite the violence, which is applied to the protesters; despite imprisoning our leaders – people don’t give up. Protests are efficient, especially, massive protests.”

Breaking News From Planet Snowflake – Kitchen Knives To Be Banned

As we’ve said before, this blog started  out as a social and political satire publication. Then about 2010 maybe, the virtue signalling of the political left and progressive liberals became so insane it was beyond sanity. This story illustrates how far beyond sanity we have travelled.

‘Beyond parody’: Call for UK to ban pointed kitchen knives ridiculed online

Church of England bishops (who else could be so far out of touch with reality?) are leading a campaign calling on the government to take a toughen up its position on on knife crime, in the wake of a massive upsurge in knife attacks and violent crime since the police were ordered to prioritise the investigation of ‘hate crime’ over pursuing real criminals. One of their suggestions is banning pointed kitchen knives. The suggestion has been met on social media with some confusion, and a lot of jokes.

Church leaders, with support from police, psychiatrists and politicians, penned an open letter to the government, arguing that domestic knives should be redesigned with rounded tips to reduce the number of life-threatening stabbing injuries being inflicted bt thugs with hunting knives, combat knives and machetes. They reportedly argue that pointed blades aren’t even needed in this day and age, given that we have forks to eat with. The useless old farts have obviouslt never skinned a rabbit or gutted a fish.

The absurdity of banning a common kitchen implement was pointed out by bemused netizens, particularly as the proposal comes after police recently announced that they will no longer post images of seized knives “to help reduce the fear of knives,” and as the Home Office uses takeaway packaging to basically tell people that stabbing is bad.

WTF? DON’T THEY UNDERSTAND THUGS THINK BEING BAD IS KOOL, SO TELLING THEN STABBING IS BAD WILL ONLY ENCOURAGE THEM?

Despite such highly effective crime-fighting tactics, the government seems to be having little actual effect on violent knife crime rates if official statistics cab ve believed, and efforts to ‘reach out’ to young criminas appears to be failing to reduce crime or assure the public that the problem is being dealt with.

Many Twitter users were baffled by the suggestion of a pointed kitchen knife ban, wondering if it’s some sort of joke, while others highlighted the fundamental futility of the idea by noting how easy it is to find an alternative sharply-pointed weapon, or to make one.

Some weighed in with creative alternatives to food preparation, should you find yourself bereft of a pointed kitchen knife.

And commenters across the pond were less than impressed with the ‘banning pointy knives’ proposal, with one saying: “When you Europeans get high and mighty about America’s guns and tell us we need to be more like you… this is what comes to mind.”

French Journalists Reject Government Narrative, Show Support For Yellow Vests Yellow Vests

Throughout the developed world we have witnessed, over the past few years, increased political pressure being applied to news organisations to promote the government line on issues such as multiculturalism and diversity, climate change, vaccines, military interventions and mass surveillance. Some governments have even go so far as to effectively abolish the right of free speech by criminalising so – called ‘hate speech’, a crime where, in common with medieval witch hunts, to be accused is regarded as suffficient proof of guilt. While Silicon Valley new media giants have made no secret of their political biases, even appearing to be vying for the role of official censors of internet content, the corruption of mainstream news journalism has been more insidious.

Though governments in the democratic world have been following a trend towards greater authoritarianism, implementing mass surveillance policies, and clamping down on freedom of expression, resistance is growing, and nowhere more so than France, a nation with a long tradition of anarchic dissent. For six months the ad – hoc protest movement known as Gilets Jaunes (Yellow vests) have protested against the globalist government of ‘boy – president’ Emmanuel Macron, a former investment banker pushed into power by the establishment in a bid to fend of a victory by the nationalist Marine Le Pen and her Rassemblement National (formerly Front National.) The Macron government is seen as ruling in the interests of the rich and of global corporations. The Yellow Vests protests were triggered by punitive fuel taxes, a part of Marcron’s over – ambitious plan to turn France into a net – zero carbon emissions economy, and by rising living costs and high unemployment. Now what began as an expression of dissatisfaction among people on moderate incomes has evolved into something much bigger, something that could change France and further weaken the European Union

Marcon’s response to the protests has been to delpoy the para – military Gendarmerie against the protestors and authorise brutal riot control tactics against unarmed citizens.

Now, after supporting the government line so far, the news media have turned on Marcon, whose government is already on the brink of collapse as civil unrest threatens to turn into civil war. Over 300 media organisations, journalists, photographers, and others working to deliver news to French citizens have put their names to a letter denouncing the excessive brutality of the methods used in trying to suppress the protests. Rubber bullets, tear gas, water cannon, baton charges and punishment beatings have all been used against people involved in Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vest) protests and members of the press corps in the cities and towns of France.

The letter claims that press freedom in France has been suffering for years under both conservative and socialist governments. Macron’s predecessor in office, the socialist Francois Hollande even went so far as to ‘ban’ conspiracy theories, though how that was intended to work we’re unable to say. The general dissatisfaction with all levels of French government entered a new phase following the start of the Yellow Vest protests in November of last year, Franceinfo reports.

“All these forms of violence have physical (injury), psychic (trauma) or financial (broken or confiscated equipment) consequences. We are personally and professionally denigrated and criminalized,” the journal wrote, highlighting the work of journalist David Dufresne who has catalogued at least 698 cases of people being attacked or injured by police at the protests, including 85 journalists.

The signatories to the letter also raised the issue of police demanding press cards, something not always available to independent journalists, saying, “As a reminder, journalism is not a regulated profession. It is not the press card that justifies our profession. That is why we demand that the government take the necessary measures so that law enforcement agencies stop harassing us and let us work freely.”

The issue of police violence towards members of the Yellow Vests has sparked concern from other sectors of society, including medical professionals, who, through their profesional body, said they had never seen so many serious injuries, some of which have included lost hands and eyes, during a protest movement.

Earlier this week, a 19-year-old woman who was so badly injured by police during a protest in Marseille on December 8th filed attempted murder charges against the officers, saying she was hit by a rubber bullet and then brutally beaten by plainclothes officers as she lay on the ground.

According to the 19-year-old, she had only just left work for the day before the assault and has been so badly injured that it took her four months to be able to return to her job in the retail sector.

In another example of excessive police violence, a 72 year old woman who fell to the ground after being hit by a rubber bullet was set on and beaten so badly by police officers as she lay on the ground that she lost an eye. Commenting on the outrage President Macron said he hoped she had learned some wisdom from the incident. It is encouraging that French journalists are no longer prepared to play down such revolting arrougance from the ruling elite.

Macron Moves Against yellow Vests, Bans Protests In Neighborhoods With “Ultra” Radicals

 

France is cracking down on “yellow vest” protesters following a weekend of renewed violence – as the Macron administration announced on Monday that it would ban demonstration in several areas of France – including the Champs Elysees in Paris, if “ultra elements” are present, according to Interior Minister Edouard Philippe.

‘We will ban demonstrations if ultra elements’ are present, said Philippe, according to CNEWS.

The ban will apply to “neighborhoods that have been most affected as soon as we have knowledge of” the “ultras.”

“I am thinking of course the Champs-Elysees in Paris, the place Pey-Berland in Bordeaux, the Capitol Square in Toulouse”, Philippe added, where “we will proceed to the immediate dispersal of all groups.”

Philippe added that he has asked the State Judicial Agent to “systematically seek the financial responsibility of troublemakers.”
