Salon.com: We Must Stop White Men

White men must be stopped: The very future of mankind depends on it
The future of life on the planet depends on bringing the 500-year rampage of the white man to a halt. For five centuries his ever more destructive weaponry has become far too common. His widespread and better systems of exploiting other humans and nature dominate the globe.

The time for replacing white supremacy with new values is now. And just as some whites played a part in ending slavery, colonialism, Jim Crow segregation, and South African apartheid, there is surely a role whites can play in restraining other whites in this era. Beneath the sound and fury generated by GOP presidential candidates, Fox News, website trolls, police unions and others, white people are becoming aware as never before of past and present racism.
Of Jews and minorities? Yes, it's becoming clearer and clearer. The goal is to create a white civil war.
Admittedly, this encouraging development is hardly the dominant view. To the contrary, given the possibility that Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Ben Carson or one of their ilk might become president, white supremacist ideology seems to be digging in harder than ever.

I don’t take this lightly. Once upon a time I foolishly thought that there was no way that Ronald Reagan could get elected president. Lesson learned. Now is the time to start contingency planning for intensified resistance to mass deportations of immigrants, atrocities against Muslims and extreme danger to African Americans.
Leftists deny Cultural Marxism is a thing, yet will write a sentence about white supremacy that includes Ben Carson. Though since Ben is a neurosurgeon using "white man's technology" I guess he qualifies as a white supreeemist in this bizarro view.
White racism distorts how we think about virtually everything, including history itself. No one will dismiss Bill O’Reilly’s goofy books about Jesus or Lincoln or Patton or Reagan as irrelevant because, “oh, that was a long time ago, it’s got nothing to do with me now.” As a general proposition people appreciate that we can discover in the present important things we didn’t previously know about the past.

Not so when it comes to race in the USA. Not for some people anyway.

This matters a great deal. In many years of anti-racist work, I have discovered that whites who deny any connection to the racism of the past will also generally deny any connection to the racism of the present. “Please don’t tell me,” cry deniers of systemic white racism. One step removed is the view that we should “accept” the history but must take the good with the bad. This is sometimes known as the “warts and all” theory of history. A variation is the convenient idea that slavery was the “original sin.” Sin, of course, in the Western Christian point of view is inevitable and immutable.

This takes an especially pernicious twist when white racism deniers argue that there has always been slavery as though that itself somehow makes it justified. It’s not true that every society over all time has enslaved people. But even if it were true, the kind of slavery on which the U.S. was built is unlike any other that preceded it. It co-evolved with capitalism and it conflated slavery with “race”—plantation capitalism as the Rev. James Lawson calls it. CSU Fresno scholars Blain Roberts and Ethan J. Kytle put it this way recently in theNew York Times: “New research has gone further, exposing how American capitalism and democracy — once thought to be antithetical to slavery — emerged hand-in-hand with it.”
"Slavery in America is the worstest because I live in America and I hate white people."
Hard as it may be for propaganda-conditioned whites to grasp, global race-based capitalism is not a system of the past with lingering effects. It is a living, breathing organism of the present. It is a unitary thing. It is therefore not a good thing with warts. It is one thing. The “good” things always comes packaged with the “bad” thing. The mechanics of how it often works has a name: grand bargains.

The mother of all grand bargains is the U.S. Constitution which accommodated slavery in several ways, including the notorious three-fifths clause. While the Constitution was by no means the first grand bargain, it solidified a pattern that continues to this day. The New Deal, as Ira Katznelson demonstrates in his book Fear Itself, was another grand bargain that combined “progressive’ achievements such as union rights and Social Security with reaffirming the power of Dixiecrats and the institutions of Jim Crow.

Katznelson is white. So am I. So are many others now writing and speaking honestly and openly about the enduring power of white racism. That is valuable because it strengthens the idea that whites can come to terms with reality, past and present, as opposed to the myths we are encouraged to believe. As we do so, another world does become possible.

Of course white people can’t “save” the world. That mindset is the problem not the solution. But we can help. As Vietnam antiwar leader Rennie Davis points out, it is when we stop being invisible to each other that we start to become a movement.
The progressive bubble is increasingly small if they think articles like this are going to create an anti-white movement. It provokes the exact opposite response because they've dispensed with ideology and gone straight to race. This is pure identity politics. They've merged ideology to race, the argument above is much closer to pure genetic determinism than you will find anywhere on the right. There's no where for the conservakins and moderates to hide: this is red line racism. You are either pro-white or anti-white. If you hold any values that would be considered traditional in the cultural or religious sense, if you hold any ideas that are right of center on economics, you are a racist, you are a problem, you must be removed. As white power declines with demographics, this argument will get louder and it will increasingly use state power to persecute whites.

Anti-White Democratic Party Facing Electoral Hell

White Democrats love cheering on the browning of America, rubbing it in the faces of the wrong kinds of White people. The reality is the Democratic Party will turn brown first and it is already happening thanks to the "white supremacist liberals" who run the DNC. The old Whites of the DNC have held on to power and cultivated a younger generation of identitarian ethnic leaders who cannot translate their racial identity into national appeal, at least not without turning off all but the most self-hating progressives.
“It’s almost a crime,” Democratic Party Vice Chair Donna Brazile says. “We have been absolutely decimated at the state and local level.”

Taken as a whole, these six years have been almost historically awful for Democrats. You have to go back to the Great Depression and the Watergate years to find so dramatic a reversal of fortunes for a party. And this time, there’s neither a Great Depression nor a criminal conspiracy in the White House to explain what has happened.

When Obama came into the White House, it seemed like the Democrats had turned a corner generationally; at just 47, he was one of the youngest men to be elected as president. But the party has struggled to build a new generation of leaders around him. Eight years later, when he leaves office in 2017 at 55, he’ll actually be one of the party’s only leaders not eligible for Social Security. Even as the party has recently captured more young voters at the ballot box in presidential elections, its leaders are increasingly of an entirely different generation; most of the party’s leaders will fade from the national scene in the years ahead. Its two leading presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are 67 and 73. The sitting vice president, Joe Biden, is 72. The Democratic House leader, Nancy Pelosi, is 75; House Whip Steny Hoyer is 76 and caucus Chair James Clyburn is 75, as is Harry Reid, the Senate Democratic leader, who will retire next year. It’s a party that will be turning to a new generation of leaders in the coming years—and yet, there are precious few looking around the nation’s state houses, U.S. House or Senate seats.
There is a Great Depression. We're in the middle of it, the bear rally phase. From 1932 to 1937 the U.S. economy did well and the mood of the country was positive. As for a criminal conspiracy, there's Hillary's emails, Fast & Furious, IRS targeting of conservatives and Benghazi, to name a few. The media has covered this all up. If a Republican were president, we would hear non-stop about the homeless, the drug addicted, the people who have lost hope, job losses and more. To some extent, the Democrats are oblivious to this because they live in a media bubble of their own creation. White communities are being destroyed and hollowed out spiritually across America, and the Democratic party's message is "Ha ha you loser Whites! We're taking your country too!"
And the dramatic fallout in support from white working-class voters can be explained, in some progressives’ eyes, by a failure to address the plight of what was once the party’s base.

“These voters,” pollster Stan Greenberg wrote recently in the Washington Monthly, “are open to an expansive Democratic economic agenda—to more benefits for child care and higher education, to tax hikes on the wealthy, to investment in infrastructure spending, and to economic policies that lead employers to boost salaries for middle- and working-class Americans, especially women. Yet they are only ready to listen when they think that Democrats understand their deeply held belief that politics has been corrupted and government has failed. Championing reform of government and the political process is the price of admission with these voters.”
And increasingly, they will be turned off by the Democrat's anti-White agenda. A lot of the anti-white thinking in the Progressive movement is obscured because white people are saying it. White people know how to talk to White people, they share culture, language, the Democrats know their White relatives and how to reach them on policy issues. Thanks to multiculturalism and identity politics, the minorities who will replace them will not be able to. (Obama was a special case because he is half-white and raised in White culture.) Stripped of the outer layer of rhetoric and propaganda, anti-White screeds will be clear to all.

Time for Jewish Wounding

Sometimes the best way to make a point these days is to sub in a taboo race or gender in a progressive article. In this case, take a typical shit-tier progressive article from HuffPo, sub out white for Jew, and create what a rational person could describe as a crypto call for another Holocaust. The anti-White rhetoric of the Progressives has reached genocidal levels.

Racism is Unaffordable For All But the Wealthiest Americans

Racism has become a luxury good in America, which is odd because all the anti-racist efforts are centered on poor and middle-class whites. Weird.

Obama, Trump, and Daffy Duck
Fred Trump’s company was rewarded for all its contributions to middle-class America by being sued by the Nixon administration in 1973 for violating the 1968 Fair Housing Act. Only 4 percent of its tenants—in places like Forest Hills in Queens and Brighton Beach in Brooklyn—were black. The young Donald fired back, hiring Roy Cohn and arguing that allowing welfare recipients to rent in his father’s complexes would risk “massive fleeing from the city of not only our tenants, but communities as a whole.” Eventually, Donald signed one of those consent decrees with the feds, not admitting to doing anything but promising never to do it again.

Perhaps that episode played a role in the son’s determination to get out of his father’s business of building affordable housing in the outer boroughs, with its constant danger that antidiscrimination laws would trigger white flight to the suburbs among their largely middle-class Jewish customers, and instead follow the new generation of nouveaux riches New Yorkers to Manhattan. In 1983 Donald proved that New York’s 1970s economic malaise was definitely over by opening on Fifth Avenue the gaudy Trump Tower, which has since been home to numerous celebrities such as Jay Z and BeyoncĂ©.

As the saying goes, “Our prices discriminate, so we don’t have to.”

Exposing the White Supremacy of the American Left

Dylan Roof ain't got nothing on Bernie Sanders and the white supremacists of the American left who control American cities and keep the Democratic Party all white.

Interrupting Bernie: Exposing the White Supremacy of the American Left
Because let’s be honest, every Bernie rally is White space.

In watching the over-the-top angry response from White liberals about Bernie being interrupted in Seattle, I can’t help but think of the words of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on White moderates:

“I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;’ who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a ‘more convenient season.’ Shallow understanding from people of goodwill is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.”

And when I watch and hear the reaction of a mostly White Seattle crowd to a Black woman naming that the event is taking place in the context of Indigenous genocide, the new Jim Crow, and the everyday violence that Black, Brown, and Indigenous people face in Seattle, I’m ashamed.

Two Black women called for a moment of silence for Mike Brown a year after he was gunned down, left bleeding in the street for 4.5 hours, and White “progressives” shouted, booed, and chanted the name of a White man throughout that moment.
Destroy the racist Progressive power structure.
White solidarity begins with our willingness to decenter ourselves and to divest from Whiteness, our privileges and power, and to support the centering of progressive leadership of Color.
Hillary Clinton - white women
Marton O'Malley - white man
Bernie Sanders - white man
Joe Biden - white man

We, the people of White solidarity, demand the Democratic Party nominate a non-white candidate for president to divest from Whiteness and support the centering of progressive leadership of Color. The time has come!

The Incredible Fragility of White Supremacist Liberals

Poor White Supremacist Liberals

You make up all the lies to fuel the #BlackLivesMatter movement and the result is #BlackLivesMatter end up turning on the white supremacist liberals.

Now the Baltimore lie implodes.

Defense says prosecutor steered police away from evidence Freddie Gray had history of 'crash for cash' schemes
The police detectives who investigated the death of Freddie Gray were told that he had a history of participating in "crash-for-cash" schemes — injuring himself in law enforcement settings to collect settlements — but were advised by a state prosecutor not to pursue the information, according to defense attorneys for the six officers charged in Gray's arrest and death.

Do Black Lives Matter to Leftists? Evidence Says No

On a scale of 0 to 100, 100 is willing to spend all resources and sacrifice one's own life and 0 represents homicidal indifference, 30 is how much most people care when hearing about a mass casualties from an earthquake in a country they've never heard of, 40 is how they care when the stranger is identified and their life story is told, 50 is how much they care when that life story substantially matches their own. A functional society adds several dozen points to care for a life. People that do care are given resources to increase the caring of any one life. Just as life is worth more in a wealthy society, civilization increases the care for any life substantially. Civilization + proximity lifts care for life into the 70-90 range. We recognize as heroic the people who rise to 100 for strangers; these men are uncommon as a percentage of the population, but civilized societies have enough examples of this behavior that it is not uncommon.

1. People care most about their close relatives. Black people have fewer close relatives due to the destruction of the family (civilization). (Few 100s for an individual life)

2. The few close relatives lack the social capital to make others care. One person with a lot of private resources can get more people to care, but many people with no resources and no network cannot. (The few 100s and 90s cannot call upon the 30-80s. The neighbor down the street in a major urban area might barely register 40 or 50).

3. The nearest strangers who care are those who interact with black lives: social workers and the police.

4. Crime and violence are a major source of the loss of black lives, ergo the police are most actively saving black lives. Social workers may care, but due to 1, are on net doing things that lead to the taking of black lives.

5. Black and leftist political organizations hate the police more than anything since August 2014.

6. The second most hated group, right-wing/white people, keep police caring about black lives by supporting the police (other factors such as support for religion that says all lives matter count, but less immediately)

7. Left-wingers seek to demoralize right-wing white people, reject right-wing values and remove right-wing white people from power.

8. A tipping point is reached when the absolute number of right-wing people falls and the willingness to spend political capital defending police in left-wing controlled cities declines. "Something must be done about Baltimore!" becomes "Baltimore is your city, do with it as you wilt." The attempt by the NYTimes to turn local crime stories into national political agenda, instead turns national political agendas into local crime stories.

9. Once right-wing people mentally and then physically abandon them, left-wing controlled areas are allowed to implement their political agenda without opposition

10. Everyone who screams loudest that black lives matter has far more power over the police today than 1 year ago. The people who through direct contact or through indirect support of civilization help all lives to matter, have far less power than 1 year ago.

11. The New Nationwide Crime Wave

In Baltimore, the most pressing question every morning is how many people were shot the previous night. Gun violence is up more than 60% compared with this time last year, according to Baltimore police, with 32 shootings over Memorial Day weekend. May has been the most violent month the city has seen in 15 years.

In Milwaukee, homicides were up 180% by May 17 over the same period the previous year. Through April, shootings in St. Louis were up 39%, robberies 43%, and homicides 25%. “Crime is the worst I’ve ever seen it,” said St. Louis Alderman Joe Vacarro at a May 7 City Hall hearing.

Murders in Atlanta were up 32% as of mid-May. Shootings in Chicago had increased 24% and homicides 17%. Shootings and other violent felonies in Los Angeles had spiked by 25%; in New York, murder was up nearly 13%, and gun violence 7%.

Those citywide statistics from law-enforcement officials mask even more startling neighborhood-level increases. Shooting incidents are up 500% in an East Harlem precinct compared with last year; in a South Central Los Angeles police division, shooting victims are up 100%.

By contrast, the first six months of 2014 continued a 20-year pattern of growing public safety. Violent crime in the first half of last year dropped 4.6% nationally and property crime was down 7.5%. Though comparable national figures for the first half of 2015 won’t be available for another year, the January through June 2014 crime decline is unlikely to be repeated.

The most plausible explanation of the current surge in lawlessness is the intense agitation against American police departments over the past nine months.

The Race Card Is Gone

From October 2012: EXTREME Black Anger in Chicago at Obama: “He done did it. He ruined it for us. White people don’t feel guilty no more and won’t do stuff for us now”.
I learned that “white guilt” was a finite resource for blacks that many people believe has now been depleted during the Obama presidency. This is something that causes EXTREME anger in black ranks because “Obama didn’t care about what happens to everyone after he’s gone and living in that big house in Hawaii they bought for him”. That’s a reference to the $35 million “retirement estate” that wealthy Chicagoans like Penny Pritzker are working to purchase for the Obamas for occupancy come January 2013 when they are forced to move out of Washington. Like Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos before them, after they leave power they’ll be exiled to the greater Honolulu area to hold court on Oahu and live a life of pampered extravagance as a new Hawaiian royal family for the rest of their days.

“That’s all good for Barack and Michelle, but what happens to the rest of us? We ain’t getting squat from any of this. Worse, we don’t get to exploit the white guilt any more because that’s not there these days. It’s all gone. He done did it. He ruined it for us. White people don’t feel guilty no more and won’t do stuff for us now that they used to do so fast you wouldn’t believe it”, a Thinker in a bright, pretty pink blouse offered. “All of it is gone. They used it all up to elect him and to scream at anyone who said boo to him in the last four years. White people got used to being called racist all the time and aren’t scared about it anymore. I have no idea how I’m going to get funding for my programs now because I always counted on white people being too scared to say no to anything we needed at work. This is a disaster for the black community and it’s all because they put all the eggs in his basket and he f***ed it all up”.

Diversity Does Have Its Upsides

Conservatives have accepted all of the actual downside of diversity, while liberals celebrate what they perceive as the upside. The future will be a lot better than conservatives expect, and a lot worse than liberals expect.

Case in point. BBQ joint to host 'White Appreciation Day'
"We have a whole month for black history month," Antillon said. "We have a whole month for Hispanic heritage month, so we thought the least we could do was offer one day to appreciate white Americans."
Nothing new about the idea. Nothing new about the response.
"It's a perpetuation of racism," said Ricardo Romero, a civil rights activist and community organizer in Weld County. "It's wrong, if you're going to give a discount, give it to the whole community."

There could be legal repercussions as well, according to Jennifer McPherson of the Colorado Department of Regulatory Agencies.

"If someone felt like they were being discriminated against, they could come to the civil rights division and file a complaint in our office and we would investigate that," said McPherson.
What is new: the Hispanic owners don't care.
Antillon said he would consider offering a discount to other racial groups, but said it's unlikely to actually happen.

Racial Profiler in Chief

Harassment of young black men by Chicago police and University of Chicago police kept the Obama's safe in Chicago. They enjoyed the benefits of the system and they will happily enjoy it again if need be, at the same time working to undo the protections that keep many black families safe. For all the stirring up of racial hatred and revenge attacks, the ultimate losers from the Obama presidency will be blacks subjected to increase crime as policing is reduced.

Stop-and-frisk Drives Up Upper Class White Birthrates in NYC
It is not well-to-do families in TriBeCa who are responsible for this waning, as any casual examination of Greenwich Street at 3 p.m. and a look at the outsize apartments in real estate listings might make evident. TriBeCa, in fact, logged one of the highest birthrates in the city. In 2013, the highest rates of multiple births occurred on the Upper East Side and in Brooklyn Heights. Between 2004 and 2013, of all the racial groups that the city’s Health Department measures, birthrates increased only among whites.

Beginning around 2010, as birthrates among whites started steadily to climb up, birthrates among blacks began to go down. In 2013, blacks had a birthrate of 12.7, the lowest of any group in the city, with the abortion rate four times as high among black women as among white women — a reality that has had certain black clergy members alarmed and calling for action. Asians and Hispanics maintained the highest birthrates, but these figures, too, have trended downward in recent years.

Come to Lovely Baltimore

In 2013, 233 people were murdered in Baltimore, giving the city a higher murder rate than South Africa. Even as thousands of cops in riot gear enforced a curfew on April 28th, police scanners reported carjackings, robberies and one murder—none of them connected to the protests.

Hatefacts From Dating Websites Or Diversity For Thee, But Not For Me

Body type, political views, and religion are also related to the exclusion of blacks or Asians. Among white women, one of the most striking findings is that white women who describe themselves as slim, slender, athletic, fit or average are nearly seven times as likely to exclude black men as dates as women who describe themselves as thick, voluptuous, a few extra pounds, or large. [ed: :lol: ] For white men, body type has no effect on their likelihood of excluding blacks or Asians. While political views also have no effect on racial exclusion by white men, white women who describe themselves as liberal or very liberal are less likely to exclude black men as dates than women who are not political, middle of the road, or conservative. Surprisingly, liberal white women appear more likely to exclude Asian men as dates, although this finding only borders on significance.

Finally, religion affects black exclusion, and Asian exclusion among white women. Specifically, we see that whites who identified as Jewish were dropped from the analysis of black exclusion because it was a perfect predictor; that is, all white men and women who identified as Jewish excluded blacks as possible dates; all white women who identified as Jewish also excluded Asian men as possible dates. Further, white men who do not state a religion or who state their religion as “other” are far more inclusive of black women as dates than those who describe themselves as not religious. Likewise, white women of “other” religions are more likely to include Asian males as dates.

White Privilege Is Earned

You earn privilege, in this case white privilege, by strictly policing the behavior of your race/ethnic/religious group. A way to think about this privilege is to think of how parents give out privileges to their children, or how schools let the "good kids" get away when they do something wrong. The parents and schools are acting out of experience.

The way the world works, culturally-white black people are punished due to bad behavior by their group, while white scumbags are able to slide by acting like an upstanding member of society. The classic example is Eddie Haskell from Leave It To Beaver.

White privilege is like how black people speak differently around other blacks. White people behave differently around each other. It's not our fault that other people want our privileges, but our group built them and maintains them through strong policing. When whites enforce white codes of conduct on minorities, they are called racist. You cannot win.

What the progressive SJWs call "white privilege" is simply white culture. It is impossible to oppose white culture without being a racist, nor to eliminate it without removing white people. Restricting white's ability to act like white people will only cause whites to behave more insularly. Most whites in America will extend white privilege to white-presenting minorities. If society turns hostile to white culture, whites will hide their culture the same way black people hide their manner of speech in mixed company.

The answer to complaints about white privilege is to say, "Act more like white people."

When Whites Get a Free Pass
With more than 1,500 observations, the study uncovered substantial, statistically significant race discrimination. Bus drivers were twice as willing to let white testers ride free as black testers (72 percent versus 36 percent of the time). Bus drivers showed some relative favoritism toward testers who shared their own race, but even black drivers still favored white testers over black testers (allowing free rides 83 percent versus 68 percent of the time).

The study also found that racial disparities persisted when the testers wore business attire or dressed in army uniforms. For example, testers wearing army uniforms were allowed to ride free 97 percent of the time if they were white, but only 77 percent of the time if they were black.

Racism in America

Indictment of New York Officer Divides Chinese-Americans
For Chinese immigrants in New York City and elsewhere, recent events have provided an opportunity for a rare public reckoning with one of their adopted country’s most volatile fault lines. Though Officer Liang and one of the two New York officers killed in an anti-police ambush in December shared a Chinese heritage, Chinese-Americans have so far figured little in the debates over police misconduct and racial injustice that have roiled the country.
Now Chinese-Americans, too, find themselves divided.
Some have hesitated, reluctant to find politics or racial discrimination in the indictment of Officer Liang. Others have hailed the charges against him as a means of improving relations between the police and all minorities. But for some, the indictment is nothing less than the scapegoating of a young officer whose parents may have to live without their only son — and a call to arms for a minority group that has never been as politically active as blacks or Hispanics.
The progressives are working hard to turn Asian immigrants into tribal racists, but most of them favor law and order, leading to a conflict.

Do Black Lives Matter or Not?

Wasted Advantages
Pelisek broke the story of the Grim Sleeper serial killer, so-called because he was back on the prowl after taking a decade and a half off. The arrest of Lonnie David Franklin, Jr. in 2010 led to a horrifying realization: there had been at least five serial killers active in South Central in 1984-1994, murdering about 100 people, most of them black crack prostitutes—and nobody noticed.
Four of the serial killers were black.

People who shout "Black Lives Matter" don't to anything to save blacks lives, in fact they actively support policies that lead to more black deaths. And then there are people who genuinely seem to care, or at least take actions that actually save black lives:
“It’s controversial, but first thing is all of your — 95 percent of your murders, and murderers, and murder victims fit one [unintelligible]. You can just take the description, Xerox it, and pass it out to all of the cops. They are male, minorities, 15 to 25. That’s true in New York, it’s true in virtually every city in America,” said Bloomberg.
“You’ve got to get the guns out of the hands of the people getting killed,” he continued. “First thing you can do to help that group is to keep them alive.”
... It’s all the same group. Nobody in New York gets murdered — if you get murdered the first thing you want to do is [ask] ‘what were you selling or who are your family members.’ Because it just has to be you’re a drug dealer or you [unintelligible] a family quarrel. There’s just no other kind of murder whatsoever,” 
We did a calculation on how many people who would have been dead if we hadn’t brought down the murder rate and gotten guns off the streets,” Bloomberg said. “And the way to get guns out of kids hands is to throw them up against the wall and frisk them.”
