Michelle Malkin Is Too Busy Being Fitted For Her White Hood To Care That She Is Race Baiting

Does Malkin look good in white?Anytime there is a national tragedy, such as the execution of the four police officers in Washington State by Maurice Clemmons, we should run a pool to predict which "conservative" will be first to blame it on liberals or minorities.  In this case, the winner would be Michelle Malkin who uses the tragedy as an opportunity to engage in the worse kind of race-baiting.  Some may think I am reading too much into her words, but I believe others will read too little into it.

The basic theme of Malkin's column is that liberals, and black leaders (some who are radical) in particular, have created an atmosphere where it is okay and celebrated to hate the cops which leads to increased attacks on them (I guess the easy access of guns does not matter).  Why is that race baiting?  Well, Malkin totally ignores the same distrust and hatred of law enforcement on the far right (white militias and the like) while documenting such hatred among blacks.  I believe this be purposeful to stir up racial animus and to give the impression that black people are a threat to law enforcement and law and order in this country.

Let's begin with Malkin's racist tirade:

A militant online group called the National Black Foot Soldier Network celebrated Clemmons as a "Crowned BOW (Black on White) Martyr" and dubbed the Lakewood ambush a "preemptive strike on terrorists." It wasn't the only chilling propaganda cheering black-on-white police murders in the Pacific Northwest this year.

Could you imagine the outrage, and rightfully so, if liberal or any commentator cited Stormfront, or any other neo-nazi group as proof of people cheering white-on-black crime?  Stormfront and other racist organizations spew such shit on a daily basis and it does not seem to make it into Malkin's column.  But, why would it?  Malkin is all about focusing on blacks killing white police officers.  She then goes on about rap music glorifying killing cops and then recalls another tragedy in Oakland:

It is, in my mind, no coincidence that another of 2009's bloodiest multiple-police shootings took place in Oakland -- a hotbed of black nationalism/Free Mumia radicalism that gave us the likes of Angela Davis, Huey Newton and Obama green jobs czar turned liberal think-tank fellow Van Jones (whose "creative" activism and "energy" in the Bay Area won senior White House adviser Valerie Jarrett's heart). Four Oakland officers went down and one was injured when a convicted felon ambushed them during a routine traffic stop.

So, let me get this straight, a 27 year old (born well before Angela David and Huey Newton), decided to go out shooting in March 2009 because of blackradicalism from the 1960s.  I am more than certain that the cop killer in this does not even know of Davis, Newton, or Van Jones.  I hate to admit this, but I am sure this guy was more influenced by violent video games, such as Grand Theft Auto, than black nationalism.

Now, some may argue, well how is Malkin being racist, she is just stating what is going on?  Well, can someone then explain why Malkin conveniently ignored another mass killing of police officers that occured this year which involved a white culprit.  Richard Poplawski, a white supremacist shot and killed three police officers in Pittsburgh back in April because the cops were going to evict his mother and he feared they would take his guns.  Gee, where is Malkin deriding the NRA and other right wing organizations that whip up such anti-government hysteria that it leads people to kill law enforcement.  Hell, they mock the Southern Law Poverty Center and the Department of Homeland Security when they even acknowledge the existence and strength of such groups.  What about Timothy McVeigh, the lone wolf, and David Koresh?  Why no discussion there?

There is just as much hatred and distrust of law enforcement on the far right (which his predominately white) than on the far left.  Malkin purposely and disgustingly chose one to stir up racial animus among her "conservative" readers.  Don't be fooled by any claims to the contrary.  I would call Rush Limbaugh racist for such actions so Malkin deserves the same treatment.  Malkin is a racist who stirs up racial animus to make money and prove her "conservative" credentials.  What a vile human being!
