A man stops to help a boy after he hit him with his vehicle.
The man is in an induced coma.

"Police have said the crime was not racially motivated. Utash is white
and his attackers were black."

0f course, I'm sure the 12 black attackers would have beat a black
driver just as bad*. That makes the crime better somehow?

I have no idea and neither do you. I do know, however, that the modern
Republican party, which you support, came into being after 1964 when the
Democrats chased the southern white racist/bigots out of their party and
the Republicans welcomed them with open arms, and that the majority of
white racists these days are still strongly affiliated with the GOP,
along with the haters of gays, the haters of equal pay for women, the
haters of poor people, et cetera. The GOP *is* the party of hate.

Do a bit of reading and get back to us:

Don't go there Mike. We all read the news and it's a bad story, but
no one can predict how it might have turned out in different
circumstances. At this point all you can hope for is a good recovery
for the driver and proper justice for the perpetrators.

I was wondering which of the racist morons here would pile on. You

Jackson isn't one that describes *his* feelings, but one used to
describe how he thinks "white people" feel when they hear footsteps
behind them.

Right-wing media outlets have bandied about that quote for decades, and
out of context, of course.

Bull****. The entire quote is:

"We must face the No. 1 critical issue of our day. It is youth crime in general and black-on-black crime in particular. There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved. After all we have been through, just to think we can't walk down our own streets, how humiliating."

Seriously harry, have you ever thought of writing and publishing a book of fictional short stories? You sure write enough of it here. Hell man, if it sold well you could pay off all those debts and taxes!

If I understand what you are saying, He did say the line, (I can only
find that it was originally quoted in US News). I can only find one
reference that gives context to the quote, and that context was, to
paraphrase, yes I grew up in the same racist culture and I have those
feeling to. Is that the context, or is that not what you thought?

But I need to quote someone else,
"Young black males commit crime way out of proportion to their numbers.
Taking that into account when you’re out in the street is not
irrational, it’s street-smart. It’s not profiling, it’s probability."

Street smarts saves lives.

Here is an interesting site to get you thinking.

You'd deny he said it even if you originally reported in the Kansas Star
that he *did*. The statement has been (and remains) directly quoted in
many different sources. What one *cannot* find anywhere is a report
that he never said it, nor what he meant by it. You claim never to
have seen a cite that definitively proves Jackson said any such thing,
yet you previously tried to explain away what he meant by it. If he
never said it, why do you need to explain it?

One of the problems in our society is that racism exists and it
originates from all sides and people, whites, blacks, brown, yellow,
whatever. Unfortunately a few (including Jesse Jackson and Al
Sharpton) have made the issues of racial relationships and conflicts a
means of making a very good living. That's what they do.

No person or entity in politics has had more success being racist than
the Republican Party since the mid-1960s. About all the GOP has these
days is racism and hatred and division.

Please. In the last few days, *your* political party nationally and in
various states has taken measures to restrict voting, to not extend
unemployment compensation, to deny equal pay for equal work, and in the
Ryan budget that passed the House today, further slice what remains of
the social safety network in order to give more tax breaks to the
wealthy. All of those moves, every one of them, impact the poor and
minorities negatively. Smug Republicans in denial.

Smug is the wrong word. "Clownish" is the right word.
Comes from being scared. Or maybe from being clowns.
Certainly not "smug".
Maybe the Dems are smug. Maybe justifiably so.

Why should we extend unemployment? Isn't two years enough for someone to
learn a new job? Why not restrict voting to those legal to vote in an
election. Person moved 2 years ago, to another district, why should it not
be questioned when he wants to vote in a local election? An local election
that does not concern them. Why should a person in Chicago or anyplace
else get to vote each year for 75 years after they died? We, as a nation
are broke! Why should we not change welfare, when it seems to not improved
the nation in 75 years? When we are on the 6 or 7th generation of welfare
family, even a concrete brain like yours has to admit, IT AIN'T WORKING.
The poor pay no IRS taxes! why give them a break? Look at dividend income
from 2014 on. Max tax rate from IRS, 35%. But that money was already
taxed at 38% corporate tax rate. Seems as if removes incentive to invest
for long term, or even to pay dividends. Kills those 401K and pension
funds even more. Why are we borrowing 47cents of every dollar the Federal
Government spends. Seems even worse since the modern Dem's are in control
of the Executive branch. We better change something, as what we are doing
now AIN'T work'n.

something by way of honest hard work. It must really pain you to have to

Detroit violence has reached a tipping point
By Rochelle Riley, Detroit Free Press (MI) April 14, 2014 6:55 am


Driver of pickup.

Driver of pickup.
So what are we going to do now?

I'm not asking what black people are going to do.

I'm not asking what white people are going to do.

I'm asking what we all are going to do about the violence escalating in
our region.

The conversation didn't begin with the beating of Steve Utash, the white
Macomb County tree trimmer who was brutally attacked after stopping to
help a black child he hit by his truck.

We've been talking about it all the time, about ?

.... the elderly women who've been raped

.... the elderly security guard shot while patrolling his church grounds

.... the 17-year-old with a future shot by a guy who didn't like how he
looked at him

.... the young woman shot on the stoop of a man who didn't bother to look
out through the door to see who was there

.... the elderly men and veterans attacked at gas stations

.... and the stand-your-ground incidents of people shooting home intruders.

We can stop the train and treat the violence like it's a problem for all
of us. Or we can keep pointing fingers.

Since the Utash beating, some people have been upset that everybody's
upset. Some white folks want Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to come and
march in honor of Utash. (No, I don't get it either). Some black people
are asking where the outrage has been over the other instances of crime
that have plagued the city for so long that we stopped counting the victims.

Why didn't the community care in a big way until a black mob beat a
white guy?

That is the wrong question. The question is: Why didn't the community
care in a big way until THIS guy?

And that is why we need to stop the train.

Everyone cared so much this time because this community, this entire
community that includes three counties, more than a hundred townships
and the state's only true urban city, finally reached its tipping point.

Defined by author Malcolm Gladwell as "the moment of critical mass, the
threshold, the boiling point, when an idea, trend, or social behavior
crosses a threshold, tips and spreads like wildfire," the Utash beating
brought to a boil all the outrage over every beating, every shooting,
every killing, every assault.

Most of us aren't more outraged by what happened to Utash. It was just
the incident that made so many of us say: "Enough."

There have been dozens of innocent victims of crime in our
neighborhoods, day after day after day. We have mourned them all. We
have talked about them. I have written about many of them.

They weren't all in Detroit.

A Grosse Pointe man hired a hit man to kill his wife.

A St. Clair Shores woman was charged with killing her 32-year-old son,
dismembering his body and stuffing his remains in garbage bags.

Utash -- who was awake Friday, his family said, for the first time since
the beating -- wasn't just innocent, like so many victims.

Steve Utash was innocent, AND he was doing a good deed. He could have
driven away from a kid crumpled in the street. Instead, he got out of
his truck and went to try to tend to him.

And a mob stopped him from helping a kid.

The beating and its aftermath have ignited a conversation that -- if we
put on our big-girl and big-boy pants and just do it -- could change the
way we see each other and could go a long way toward easing decades-old
racial tensions in our state.

Jerry Carr was right. The Grosse Pointe Park security consultant and
musician said it's time for black people to have a conversation with
black people about the violence in predominantly black Detroit.

But it's also time for white people to have a conversation with other
white people who can help them understand that not all black people are
alike. And you can no more call me and blame me for a mob attack than I
will call you and blame you for a kid stabbing 22 people at one school
or shooting 26 at another elementary school.

Those kids didn't represent all white people. That mob on Detroit's east
side doesn't represent all black people. But we still need to do
something about all of it, all of us.

We have reached a tipping point.

What are going to do with it?

Right-wing media outlets have bandied about that quote for decades, and

out of context, of course.

Bull****. The entire quote is:

"We must face the No. 1 critical issue of our day. It is youth crime in general and black-on-black crime in particular. There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery. Then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved. After all we have been through, just to think we can't walk down our own streets, how humiliating."

Seriously harry, have you ever thought of writing and publishing a book of fictional short stories? You sure write enough of it here. Hell man, if it sold well you could pay off all those debts and taxes!

Most likely Krause will not respond to getting caught in another lie.

It is fun sometimes however to see how creatively he can rope-a-dope.

The usual smug republicans in denial. Nothing else is new.


Rope-a-Dope !


Please. In the last few days, *your* political party nationally and in
various states has taken measures to restrict voting, to not extend
unemployment compensation, to deny equal pay for equal work, and in the
Ryan budget that passed the House today, further slice what remains of
the social safety network in order to give more tax breaks to the
wealthy. All of those moves, every one of them, impact the poor and
minorities negatively. Smug Republicans in denial.

Why should we extend unemployment? Isn't two years enough for someone to
learn a new job? Why not restrict voting to those legal to vote in an
election. Person moved 2 years ago, to another district, why should it not
be questioned when he wants to vote in a local election? An local election
that does not concern them. Why should a person in Chicago or anyplace
else get to vote each year for 75 years after they died? We, as a nation
are broke! Why should we not change welfare, when it seems to not improved
the nation in 75 years? When we are on the 6 or 7th generation of welfare
family, even a concrete brain like yours has to admit, IT AIN'T WORKING.
The poor pay no IRS taxes! why give them a break? Look at dividend income
from 2014 on. Max tax rate from IRS, 35%. But that money was already
taxed at 38% corporate tax rate. Seems as if removes incentive to invest
for long term, or even to pay dividends. Kills those 401K and pension
funds even more. Why are we borrowing 47cents of every dollar the Federal
Government spends. Seems even worse since the modern Dem's are in control
of the Executive branch. We better change something, as what we are doing
now AIN'T work'n.

Well said. I'm sure Krause has no response, except some more ropeadope.

As long as he gets his attention and can dole out his insults to those who respond to him, he's a
happy, narcissistic camper.
