Which Is Worse: Complaining About Harmless Blacks Or Failing To Alert Police About Dangerous Black Men?

It ’ s perfectly reasonable to want fewer incidents of white women calling the cops on innocent black men ( Type I errors ) , so long as you are willing to accept more incidents of violence against white women by guilty black men ( Type II errors ) .

If Kitty Genovese were attacked by Winston Moseley in 2020 instead of 1964, the media would obsess not over the dozens of witnesses who didn’t call the police but over the two or three who did.
Our society, however, seems to be suffering a cognitive disability about understanding the trade-off between Type I errors (e.g., false positive complaints about harmless black men) and Type II errors (e.g., failures to alert police about dangerous black men). As I wrote in Taki’s Magazine in 2018:
What’s Your Type?
Steve Sailer
July 18, 2018
…After all, these kinds of false-alarm Type I errors—false-positive calls to the cops to investigate a person who turns out to be law-abiding—happen countless times per day in this vast country of ours. So do Type II errors: false negatives of failing to alert the police in cases of a genuine lawbreaker.…
Ever since the Starbucks bathroom crisis in April, America has been going through a media moral panic in which a white man (or, more often, a white woman) who commits a Type I error at the expense of a black person may lose his job and be permanently keelhauled in the press.
Here are recent examples of this media mania from the New York Times:...
First, there was BBQ Becky. Then came Permit Patty. Now, a South Carolina woman has been nicknamed Pool Patrol Paula after a widely shared video showed her accosting a black boy and his friends at a neighborhood pool, telling them to “get out” or she would call the police.
With the respectable NYT having given the okay that this variety of trivial fluff is respectable national news, the tabloids are now jumping in. Not surprisingly, the parameters of this variety of story are expanding to cover just about anything anyone said to dis anybody else. The police don’t need to be involved, as long as there is an identity-politics angle to help you grasp immediately who is the Good Guy and who is the Bad Guy (or, typically, Bad Gal)...
In an increasingly feminized media culture, this is what passes for breaking news: ..
And, admittedly, this kind of story is pretty easy and entertaining to have an opinion on which stranger is right and which is wrong. You don’t have to know anything or think very hard, just react.

Cheese birthday party brawls. But World Star Hip Hop videos of black-on-black weave-pulling is definitely not the news that’s fit to print in The New York Times.
Yet America’s ongoing moral crusade to hunt down the last remaining white racists means that much duller videos of whites acting suspicious of blacks are now front-page news. …
In contrast to Implicit Bias theory, the fun of the current frenzy is that you don’t have to blame everything on textbooks and the like. You get to hate the individual evil racist Becky.
It’s particularly noteworthy that white women are the designated villains in many of these media morality plays. You might think that in the #MeToo era, women’s worries about their personal security would be viewed at least somewhat sympathetically.

Our ability to think statistically about the trade-off between Type I and Type II errors seems to go on the fritz when race is involved. When the participants are all white, everybody more or less intuits that if you want the cops to question fewer innocent people (fewer Type I errors), you’ll have to put up with more guilty ones committing more crimes (more Type II errors), and vice versa.
But thinking statistically is hard. The distinction between Type I and Type II errors was only invented by Jerzy Neyman and Egon Pearson between the Wars. (And we still need a better mnemonic name than Type I/Type II.)
It’s much easier instead merely to automatically castigate the people your culture designates as vile and deserving of abuse, which in 21st-century America is increasingly the white race.

The Associated Press had an obituary for this woman, best known for stabbing a 78-year old white woman to death
From: An Anonymous Reader [Email him]
This one has the race of the criminal (above) but it’s a case of “Not reporting race” of the victim!
"Cooper admitted stabbing 78-year-old Ruth Pelke 33 times with a 12-inch butcher knife in a robbery that netted four youths $10 and an old car. Cooper was 15 at the time the crime was committed."
Here’s a picture of Ruth Pelke:
"Her death sentence enraged human rights activists in the U.S. and Europe”
Funny how the murder of Ruth Pelke didn't outrage "human rights activists".
James Fulford writes: The death sentence was objected to because she was 15 at the time of the murder. Then the Indiana Supreme Court knocked it back to 60 years in jail, which of course means they let her out after less than 30 years. I am more and more convinced that anti-death penalty activists are evil. See Troy Davis, Lawrence Brewer, Wyatt Matthews And The Disparate Death Penalty.

Peter Brimelow welcomed his fellow thought criminal and oppressed editor Jared Taylor, who has been running American Renaissance as a newsletter, conference and web page since 1990, to a discussion about tech totalitarianism and "deplatforming."
Jared Taylor's outfit is something of a canary in a coal mine on the deplatforming front. For several years in a row (especially 2010 and 2011) antiracist pressure—including government action on the part of the black mayor pro tem of Charlotte—and antifa death threats caused private hotels to cancel the American Renaissance Conference, which has since moved the Tennessee State Government-owned Montgomery Bell Park. As Jared points out, "The public sector won't submit to threats of that kind."
However, Park Police are expensive, and the presence of scruffy antifa protestors required the State to pay overtime, for which they tried to charge American Renaissance a minimum of $30,000. However, American Renaissance sued in court, and as Jared wrote in 2019,
Judge Aleta Trauger [A Clinton appointee!] issued a preliminary injunction in our favor, ruling that to charge us crushing security fees because of outside threats would be a classic case of the “heckler’s veto,” or letting critics deny us our free-speech rights.
Proof, by the way, that litigation works.
They've had some great conferences there, under the protection of the Park Police, but they had to cancel this year, because of coronavirus. It's rescheduled for May 2021, but it would have started this week. (Jared's video background is black crepe, signifying mourning.)
Jared says that he hadn't written his speech, and wondered if Peter had written his planned speech which was to have been "Donald Trump: Tragedy Or Triumph?"
Jared rates President Trump a C on his performance in office, alluding to many broken promises.
Peter, on the other hand, still gives Trump an A for not being Hillary, an A-plus for not being Jeb Bush, and when asked what grade he'd give him for not being Joe Biden, said "An A, of course, because if Biden becomes President, we'll all be driven off the Internet."

vdare--2020-05-28--Patrick J. Buchanan: A Fatal Failing of Establishment Elites

Earlier by James Kirkpatrick : Biden And Blacks : No Gaffe Can Threaten This Venal Relationship In his half-century in national politics , Joe Biden has committed more than his fair share of gaffes .
Wednesday , he confused Pearl Harbor Day , Dec. 7 , 1941 , with D-Day , June 6 , 1944 .
The more serious recent gaffe , a beaut , came at the close of a recent contentious interview with black activist Charlamagne tha God .
A miffed Biden signed off , saying , `` If you have a problem figuring out whether you 're @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ai n't black . ''
Biden was saying that no self-respecting black American would vote for Trump over him this November .
Indeed , any such individual would have been labeled in the 1960s with the slur Uncle Tom .
As Biden put it , if you 're for Trump , `` you ai n't black . ''
Recognizing the damage he may have done with his own and his party 's most loyal constituency , which might object to being taken for granted as knee-jerk Democratic voters , Biden 's staff put @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of the U.S. Black Chamber of Commerce .
There , Biden burbled full apologies : `` I would never take the African American community for granted .
...
I should n't have been such a wise guy .
... No one should have to vote for any party based on their race or religion or background . ''
He had just been kidding .
Now , as a gaffe , this was not of the magnitude of James G. Blaine 's failure to object when a friendly Presbyterian pastor , Rev .
Sam @ @ @ @ @ @ @ York Irish Blaine had been courting as being `` the Party of Rum , Romanism , and Rebellion . ''
In 1884 , that slur soured Catholics on Blaine , helping to cost him New York 's state 's electoral votes and the White House .
Thanks to Burchard , Grover Cleveland would become the only Democrat to win the presidency in the half-century between 1860 and 1912 .
Biden 's gaffe and Burchard 's slur have this in common : Both manifest a measure of condescension toward a large bloc of voters @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 2016 .
At a closed-door gathering of contributors , she volunteered , to their amusement , that half of all Trump 's voters belong in a `` basket of deplorables '' for being `` racist , sexist , homophobic , xenophobic , Islamophobic . ''
Their pathologies are part of their character , Clinton was saying .
And while many were `` irredeemable , '' fortunately , they are `` not America . ''
During the 2008 Pennsylvania primary , Barack Obama was guilty of the same elitist condescension when he told a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ why he was not doing well in the Keystone State : '' You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and , like a lot of small towns in the Midwest , the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing 's replaced them .
`` And it 's not surprising then they get bitter , they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who are n't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations . ''
Hard times have curdled the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ saying , turning them into bigots and Bible-and-gun nuts .
The people of whom he was speaking would deliver Pennsylvania , Wisconsin , Michigan and the nation to Donald Trump in 2016 .
As for Biden 's remark , `` No one should have to vote for any party based on their race or religion or background , '' it is surely true .

Was the 95-4 thumping of John McCain by Obama among African Americans not due to the fact that Obama was the first African American nominated by a major party ?

Tom Cotton suggests Chinese students shouldn’t be allowed to study sciences in the US
By Gregg Re | Fox News
Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., told Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that it was a “scandal” that the United States has trained some Chinese nationals to “go back to China to compete for our jobs, to take our business, and ultimately to steal our property and design weapons and other devices that can be used against the American people.”
Cotton, who has vowed that China will “pay” for what he has called its deliberate choice to unleash the coronavirus on the world, went on to say that the U.S. should take a “hard look at the visas” awarded to Chinese nationals.
“If Chinese students want to come here and study Shakespeare and the Federalist Papers, that’s what they need to learn from America,” Cotton said. “They don’t need to learn quantum computing and artificial intelligence from America.”

At a time of so much death and suffering in this country and around the world from the Covid-19 pandemic, it can be easy, I suppose, to take any incidents that don’t result in death as minor occurrences.
But they aren’t. The continued public assault on black people, particularly black men, by the white public and by the police predates the pandemic and will outlast it. This racial street theater against black people is an endemic, primal feature of the Republic.
Specifically, I am enraged by white women weaponizing racial anxiety, using their white femininity to activate systems of white terror against black men. This has long been a power white women realized they had and that they exerted.
This was again evident when a white woman in New York’s Central Park told a black man, a bird-watcher, that she was going to call the police and tell them that he was threatening her life.
This was not innocent nor benign nor divorced from historical context. Throughout history, white women have used the violence of white men and the institutions these men control as their own muscle.
From the beginning, anti-black white terrorists used the defense of white women and white purity as a way to wrap violence in valor. Carnage became chivalry.
We often like to make white supremacy a testosterone-fueled masculine expression, but it is just as likely to wear heels as a hood.
Particularly in the post-Civil War era, when slavery had been undone, white male politicians used the fear of rape of white women by black men to codify racial terror.

Also, they tend to be extreme antiquarians who don’t seem to be cognizant of any history since the end of Jim Crow or even of slavery.
Perhaps the funniest example of this long-running trend appeared in The New York Times on Memorial Day when sociologist Sabrina Strings, author of Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia, weighed in with:
It’s Not Obesity. It’s Slavery.
We know why Covid-19 is killing so many black people.
To prove her hypothesis, she recounts her experience as “the only black person in the room” (a repetitious trope in this school of op-edizing) when she explained to public health experts why black people are sick:
My answer was swift and unequivocal:
“Slavery.”
Well, there you go.
Professor Strings went on to explain:
The era of slavery was when white Americans determined that black Americans needed only the bare necessities, not enough to keep them optimally safe and healthy. It set in motion black people’s diminished access to healthy foods, safe working conditions, medical treatment and a host of other social inequities that negatively impact health.

vdare--2020-05-28--The Great Replacement: Newark NJ vs. Minneapolis MN

See also : The Great Replacement in Minneapolis : From 99 % White in 1910 to 60 % White in 2020 ...
I know what Minneapolis is going through tonight .
I was born in Newark , New Jersey , in 1948 .
In those days , it was a vibrant medium-sized city in the New York metropolitan region .
It was over 80 % white .
We had a huge Jewish population , mostly settled in the Weequahic section of town , a predominant Italian population and large numbers of Germans and Slavs of various types , by my @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was a wonderful place .
It was in fact truly “ diverse ” and an interesting place to live .
In Newark and neighboring Irvington we had two German-language movie theaters , a Polish theater and an Italian theater .
We had access to some of the best bread I have ever tasted , made fresh every day in the ethnic bakeries .
Our delis were famous , as were our ethnic butcher shops .
Our schools were first class .
The future New York City Mayor Ed Koch was a graduate of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like to call “ The Great Migration ” ( and we ’ re not allowed to call “ The Great Replacement ” ) had already hit Newark by then and the Central Ward had begun to rot .
The elites , even then , did not blame the new inhabitants of the ward for the rot , it was the “ landlords ” who were to blame , we were told .
People who only cared about profits .
The landlords , on the other hand complained that the new tenants they were @ @ @ @ @ @ @ properties .
Riding through the ward , as I did many times in the 1950s as a child , it seemed that the landlords were correct , the beautiful front doors of the old brick homes were smashed in because someone had forgotten a key , windows were smashed out .
Garbage was everywhere .
When we drove a few blocks into a neighborhood that was still Italian or Slav or Jewish or German , the same old homes were maintained by the tenants , they had beautiful window boxes overflowing with flowers @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Amazingly , the folks who were not so “ great ” were able to keep a neighborhood decent , worthy of living in .
The migration that was changing Newark forever , that would cause it to lose 200,000 residents between 1950 and the present , was to us not , “ The Great Migration ” bringing precious diversity to our benighted city .
It was in fact “ The Great Invasion ” of people so alien , so primitive , and so in contrast with our concepts of how to live @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to the “ Great Flight ” of over 200,000 white residents of that once great city and the total collapse of its school system .
The Great Invasion also had its violent , almost military side .
As an elderly Ukrainian food truck operator told me in 1967 , “ this is a slow genocide , every week a few of us are murdered and many more sell our homes and run for the shore.
” It was just that , and then came the riots .
Our liberal elites would have us @ @ @ @ @ @ @ result of “ racism.
” And indeed , racism—on both sides—played a part .
The first riots , which took place in 1967 while I was working my way across the Atlantic on an Israeli freighter , were sparked by the arrest of a black cab driver for a relatively minor traffic incident .
Rumors started that he had been beaten and even killed .
It was a very hot night , almost nobody in Newark had air conditioning in those days and both white and black were on their stoops or porches @ @ @ @ @ @ @ heat .
Protesters appeared at the police station where the black guy was being held and things went crazy .
The city blew up .
Whites in mixed areas hunkered down in fear .

I know what Minneapolis is going through tonight. I was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1948. In those days, it was a vibrant medium-sized city in the New York metropolitan region. It was over 80% white. We had a huge Jewish population, mostly settled in the Weequahic section of town, a predominant Italian population and large numbers of Germans and Slavs of various types, by my recollection mostly Poles and Ukrainians.
It was a wonderful place. It was in fact truly “diverse” and an interesting place to live. In Newark and neighboring Irvington we had two German-language movie theaters, a Polish theater and an Italian theater. We had access to some of the best bread I have ever tasted, made fresh every day in the ethnic bakeries. Our delis were famous, as were our ethnic butcher shops. Our schools were first class. The future New York City Mayor Ed Koch was a graduate of Newark public schools.
What our elites like to call “The Great Migration” (and we’re not allowed to call “The Great Replacement”) had already hit Newark by then and the Central Ward had begun to rot. The elites, even then, did not blame the new inhabitants of the ward for the rot, it was the “landlords” who were to blame, we were told. People who only cared about profits. The landlords, on the other hand, complained that the new tenants they were now willingly renting to were wrecking their properties.
Riding through the ward, as I did many times in the 1950s as a child, it seemed that the landlords were correct, the beautiful front doors of the old brick homes were smashed in because someone had forgotten a key, windows were smashed out. Garbage was everywhere. When we drove a few blocks into a neighborhood that was still Italian or Slav or Jewish or German, the same old homes were maintained by the tenants, they had beautiful window boxes overflowing with flowers and no garbage was on the streets.
Amazingly, the folks who were not so “great” were able to keep a neighborhood decent, worthy of living in.
The migration that was changing Newark forever, that would cause it to lose 200,000 residents between 1950 and the present, was to us not, “The Great Migration” bringing precious diversity to our benighted city. It was in fact “The Great Invasion” of people so alien, so primitive, and so in contrast with our concepts of how to live in a civilized society that it led to the “Great Flight” of over 200,000 white residents of that once great city and the total collapse of its school system.
The Great Invasion also had its violent, almost military side. As an elderly Ukrainian food truck operator told me in 1967, “this is a slow genocide, every week a few of us are murdered and many more sell our homes and run for the shore.”
It was just that, and then came the riots. Our liberal elites would have us believe that the Newark Riots were the result of “racism.” And indeed, racism—on both sides—played a part.
The first riots, which took place in 1967 while I was working my way across the Atlantic on an Israeli freighter, were sparked by the arrest of a black cab driver for a relatively minor traffic incident. Rumors started that he had been beaten and even killed. It was a very hot night, almost nobody in Newark had air conditioning in those days and both white and black were on their stoops or porches to get some relief from the stifling heat. Protesters appeared at the police station where the black guy was being held and things went crazy.
The city blew up. Whites in mixed areas hunkered down in fear. White shops were looted and burned by the black mobs—there was the real racism, the deliberate targeting of white-owned shops for looting and destruction. Black-owned shops were spared. And since there was no rioting in areas as yet to be enriched by “The Great Migration” there were no lootings of black-owned businesses by whites, no attacks on blacks.
Although the Left now denies it, the “Great Migrants” used hunting rifles to snipe at Newark Police and New Jersey National Guardsmen sent in to reestablish the peace [See Police used the myth of black snipers to justify brutality in the Long Hot Summer of 1967, Peter Blackmer, Medium, August 11, 2017 and Newark Riot Deaths at 21 As Negro Sniping Widens; Hughes May Seek U.S. Aid, by Homer Bigart, New York Times, July 16, 1967]. Liberal Democrat Governor Richard J. Hughes was so dismayed by the violence, by the rampant destruction of property, that he reportedly gave the National Guard the right to use machine guns against the rioters. [Newark Riot Toll Hits 16; 650 Injured With Battle In 4th Day, by Robert Sullivan, Desert Sun, July 15, 1967.] MGs were almost certainly used against the snipers.
When the riots ended, mass white flight began. As a Jewish friend described it to me, the summer and fall of 1967 gave rise to “The Second Exodus.” According to him, Weequahic High School, which had been about two-thirds white/Jewish when school ended in June 1967, had tipped to two-thirds black when school started again in September 1967. By the end of the school year it was almost all black.
Weequahic High School is 91 percent black, 9 percent in Hispanic now, with white and Asian fractions too small to measure. It’s rival, South Side High School is now called “Malcolm X Shabazz High School,” reflecting the new racial reality.
Some areas of Newark held out against “The Great Invasion” longer, Slav/German Upper Vailsburg until the 1980s, St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Church with its school serving as one anchor for the European-American community. The wonderful old babushkas of St. John’s produced homemade pirohe every Thursday and Friday afternoon, smothered in butter. I can still taste them. That was real diversity.
But increasing crime on the street led even these last holdouts to flee. The city, my home city, now has a tiny (8.8%) white minority made up mostly of hold-out Italians in the North Ward and Portuguese in the Ironbound section.
The school system has become a joke, a parody of what public schools should be. In the early 1970s I worked for two years as a substitute teacher in the school system. In one High School I was instructed to give a pink slip for detention to any students caught having sex in school hallways. They got detention for causing a “fire hazard” by blocking the halls. In one elementary school I intercepted a note from a cute second grade girl to a boy in her class—its message? “I love your dick, please don’t give me no baby.” Lost childhoods in the ghetto.
Another side-effect of “The Great Migration”—in one Junior High, I witnessed a very good black male student harassed for wanting to get good grades, for “acting white.” This is a school where most students would not even write their names on test papers, let alone actually take the test.
The boy, whose father was an Army veteran and believed in discipline and success, could not take the harassment anymore and went berserk. He came into school with a .38 revolver to get revenge on his tormentors. I was on hall duty as he entered the school. “Leave me alone, Mr. B, this isn’t for you,” he said.
I left him alone. I ran to the office and called the police. They took their time getting to the school since they (by then mostly black) didn’t want to risk getting shot.
The best kid in the school shot his tormentor, luckily not fatally, and probably ruined his own life.
Since Mayor Hugh Addonizio was sent away for corruption in 1970, Newark has been ruled by black mayors, one of whom was “Spartacus” Cory Booker. Booker is one of the few who has not ended up like Addonizio, in the clink. Perhaps his time is yet to come. He is allegedly presidential timber.
My native city is now a ruined shell of what it was when I was born. Our elites can tell me all they want that I and my town benefited from “The Great Migration.” All neutral metrics show the opposite.
“The Great Invasion” created a less diverse, almost monolithic black Newark replete with food deserts and areas so dangerous that even the (black) police don’t like to enter them.
A warning for all of America that “Great Migrations,” and “Great Replacements,” might not be that great at all.
