Thanks to A Texas Reader, who asked,
Did he just commit a "gaffe"?
At MSNBC.
Dear Rudy Giuliani, when talking about police shootings of blacks, changing the topic to Bad Stuff Black Folks Do Too is beyond offensive.

One way to describe it. Breathtakingly racist is another. “@maggiepolitico: This is pretty vintage Giuliani. Yikes http://t.co/t2ghSNIcou”

I responded,
Old Rudy would have simply defended Off Wilson for righteous shooting of racist thug trying to murder him.
George Orwell would have loved the Lisa Bloom tweet.

If a gaffe is defined as telling the truth then Rudy committed a gaffe.
ReplyDeleteMerely stating statistics is a gaffe then too. 93 % of blacks shot and killed are killed by other blacks. And that remaining 7 % I might think very few actually shot and killed by a person properly defined as a white. Mostly that 7 % Mexican gangbangers killing black competitors.
