Countenance Blog Uses Racial Profiling to Decode “News” Story about Racist Black Sucker Punch (“Knockout Martin Luther King”) Attack in Hamden, Connecticut
By Nicholas Stix
As the Countenance blogmeister shows, racial profiling is not only an invaluable law enforcement and civilian survival tool, but an essential method for propaganda analysis.
I didn't even bother checking if my own supposition was correct. But one of my regular commenters did, and as it turns out, I was close to right: The school is 46% white, 34% black, 13% Hispanic.
Speaking of wicked racial profiling tricks, there's a big story out there in the low information sports news sphere about "black NFL players arrested nearly 10 times more often than whites." Well, after procuring some more information that the article's author left out, I was able to do a little math and found out that the real figure isn't 10, it's 4.45.
Good work. There’s a special circle in hell reserved for today’s sportswriters. I don’t suppose they’re more evil than their non-sports comrades, just a different style of evil. My hunch is that as openly pc as sportwriters are, that’s the way their “hard news reporter” comrades talk in the newsroom, while applying the flimsiest of “objective” veils to their “reporting.”
Strip it down to the bare metal of the hard drive, and the typical sports media drivel is just as left wing and PC as the "hard" "news" media drivel. It's just that the sports media doesn't seem to be as PC because they're mostly men, generally higher T men, covering the "work" of very high T men.
That said, I'm waiting for the dork in Orlando with a fax machine to do victory laps over this story.
Racial profiling?
ReplyDeleteYou mean affirmative action?
I thought so.
