Fight against "racial injustice" continues in NYC

America cannot achieve “restoration” unless the nation acknowledges “racial injustice” and a “betrayal” of black Americans, said billionaire media mogul Oprah Winfrey in the most recent episode of her eponymous Apple TV series, The Oprah Winfrey Conversation, Breitbart reports. 

The episode featured Winfrey’s interview Bryan Stevenson, a graduate of Harvard Law School and founder of the Equal Justice Initiative, an organization with a focus on “racial justice.” Stevenson repeatedly described America as a nation plagued by an “ideology of white supremacy.”

That's from an article which appeared in the Deplorable Tribune* in September of 2020. The good folk at Blazing Cat Fur republished it just today, perhaps because Sarcasticat thought it juxtaposed nicely with a piece which quotes New York City's Democratic Mayor Eric Adams as calling for a “national response” to rising violence, following yesterday's fusillade which wounded over a dozen people who dared to ride the city's subway.

I had already composed a comment on the "incident", which I'd headed "'Allahu Akbar!' in the Big Apple". Ed. advised me to hold everything on the off chance that the perp might not be an Islamic terrorist. Ed. was right! [Ahem! Ed.]

Nor was the gunman (and would-be suicide bomber) a deranged postal service employee or an "incel" bent on exterminating the Karens women who are responsible for the mess that is today's Paranoid States of America. [Bill Burr said that once. You can look it up. Ed.]

No siree. The NYPD located the rented ban used by the attacker to get to the scene of the crime. [You mean he didn't take the subway? Ed.] The rental papers have led them to issue an APB for one Frank R. James, aged 62, who has addresses in Wisconsin and Philthydelphia. As a public service, and for no other reason, we publish theses photos of Mr James.

The New York Times ("All the news that fits the narrative") reports that Mr James "appears to have posted dozens of videos on social media in recent years — lengthy rants in which he expressed a range of harshly bigoted views and, more recently, criticized the policies of New York City’s mayor, Eric Adams."

The Times, always in the forefront of the struggle for racial justice and equality, points out that Mr James was not named as a suspect, only a "person of interest" -- someone the police believe may have information related to a crime. 

Likewise, the Times doesn't give details of Mr James' "harshly bigoted views". Nothing about "Justice for George Floyd" or "Kill Whitey!", then? Too bad that if Mr James is apprehended and charged, he won't be able to appear before Judge KBJ, who is no longer in the bidness of slapping the wrists of Offender of Colour, to make up for centuries of "racial injustice".
