NYC Dems were too busy fighting white supremacy to stop a black supremacist terrorist.
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
Mayor Eric Adams, who had called white people “crackers”, claimed that he needed his brother to head his security because of an “increase in white supremacy” in New York City.
The New York City Board of Health falsely claimed that racism was a “public health crisis” and a public school told parents to abolish their “whiteness”.
After all that time battling white supremacy, which is as easy to find in the city as good manners and parking spaces, the black supremacist subway terror attack came out of the blue.
29 people were wounded, including a pregnant woman and a 12-year-old, when Frank James, a racist gunman, opened fire on a Brooklyn subway train. James was a racial supremacist, but not the one that New York City’s political establishment had spent so much time searching for.
James was just “abolishing whiteness” by putting critical race theory into practice.
The black supremacist mass shooter has been charged with terrorism for a carefully planned terror attack, that included dressing up as a construction worker, deploying a smoke bomb and then opening fire. The racist terrorist’s victims included a pregnant woman, and a number of children and teenagers, some of whom were shot several times by the black supremacist.
Like the black supremacist Jersey City terrorists, James used a U-Haul as a base and was convinced that black people were being victimized.
“These white motherf—–s, this is what they do,” James had ranted in his YouTube videos while claiming that white people were plotting to kill all black people. “It’s just a matter of time before these white motherf—–s decide, ‘Hey listen. Enough is enough. These n—ers got to go.’”
“And so the message to me is: I should have gotten a gun, and just started shooting motherf—–s.”
And indeed that is allegedly what James did.
An initial survey of photos from the scene appear to show wounded white, Latino, and Asian victims, but no black people, suggesting that the terrorist may have targeted people by race.
Where could James have gotten his racist ideas from? While notions such as white replacement by minorities are denounced as dangerous racist conspiracy theories, the inverse, conspiracy theories that claim white people are going to launch a black genocide are mainstream.
The Black Lives Matter protests were accompanied by false claims that police shootings of black men represent genocide. Every policy, from locking up violent criminals to merit-based college admissions, is not just denounced as racist, but as the new slavery and genocide.
A Democrat political candidate even claimed that, “The Banning of Critical Race Theory is an Act of Genocide.”
When everything you don’t like is genocide, it becomes a lot easier to kill. In the mind of the subway terrorist, he may well have been acting in self-defense against a vast conspiracy of whiteness which, any day now, was just going to kill black people like, in his own words, “cattle waiting to be taken to the slaughter.” Instead the people on the subway became his cattle.
When even Pizza Hut distributes flyers to teachers encouraging them to indoctrinate their students to believe that “America is a country built on a foundation of slavery, genocide, and white supremacy”, what exactly do you expect from your friendly local racist gunman?
“America is going to come to an end,” James insisted in one of his videos, arguing that the country represented the vision of “a handful of Europeans” and that black and white people were as incompatible as different families of monkeys and whales, and could not co-exist.
Or as National Book Award winner Ta-Nehisi Coates wrote, the 9/11 firefighters and police officers “were not human to me” indicating there’s a thin line between literary awards and shooting people on the N train. Crossing the thin line involves taking their rhetoric seriously.
The incompatibility of black and white people, an idea once reserved for the margins where black and white supremacists resided, has been aggressively mainstreamed with racially segregated campus events and employee groups in corporate offices. HR and DEI offices recirculate claims that every form of professional office behavior is evil racist whiteness.
Beliefs that were marginal a generation ago are now being taught in colleges and schools.
James just put them into action. Critical race theory insists that white people are innately evil oppressors. If its proponents really believe that, why aren’t they shooting white people too?
Or, as Nikole Hannah-Jones, the originator of the racial revisionist 1619 Project hoax raved, “the white race is the biggest murderer, rapist, pillager, and thief of the modern world” who continues to “pump drugs and guns into the Balck (sic) community, pack Black people into the squalor of segregated urban ghettos and continue to be bloodsuckers in our communities.”
If you believe that sort of thing is true, why not act on it?
The language of civil rights has long since been eclipsed by the hysterical language of racism and the institutions, public and private, pushing racism and racial supremacism also deny that mainstreaming racism could possibly have any negative consequences. Instead Senator Cory Booker and Kamala Harris actually worked to dismantle FBI monitoring of black supremacists.
The rising wave of racist attacks in New York City, primarily against Asians and Jews, was met with failed efforts to blame President Trump even though the perpetrators were mostly black.
Instead of reckoning with the reality and the consequences of racist propaganda, New York City, like other woke cities, remained obsessed with white supremacy. While serious white supremacist attacks have happened elsewhere in the country, the Big Apple is not a likely venue for any such attacks. City and state officials who spent all their time warning about white supremacy were disregarding the more likely sources of violence like that of Frank James.
Almost 30 years ago, Colin Ferguson had opened fire on a Long Island Railroad train. In his notebook were a series of racist rants about white people and Asians. His lawyers famously blamed “black rage” claiming that the experience of racism made the killer lose control.
Ferguson and James are familiar characters in the crazed pantheon of urban life. Every New Yorker passes by them on the daily commute, looking away from the mumbling men obsessed with a world only they can see, orbiting their victimhood, until they finally fall and lash out with a knife or a gun. And people bleed in subways and on sidewalks while the news cameras roll.
Maybe both black supremacist monsters would have pulled the trigger even if there weren’t an entire industry making millions by propping up their racist fantasies.
Or maybe not.
There’s been a long list of black supremacist killers in the BLM era from Micah X. Johnson, who killed 5 Dallas cops, Kori Ali Muhammad’s murder of 4 people in Fresno, and Darrell Edward Brooks Jr. who ran over women and children at the Waukesha Christmas parade. It would be absurd to pretend that the mainstreaming of black supremacism did not play a role in that.
New York City’s leaders needed to spend less time babbling about white supremacy and more time reckoning with the racist black supremacist terrorists who are walking among them.
Before the next black supremacist terrorist attack takes place.

BLM rioting looting and burning businesses, murdering bystanders didnot happen in the summer of 2020 according to MSM. There is no black supremacist activity according to the current FBI, local law enforcement ,democratic leaders in blue cities .The attacks on Asians ,and Jews in blue cities carry out by large part by only “angry” black men is the republicans and Trumps fault according to the MSM. Why does the general public not believe the MSM, and only believe what their eyes and ears tell them the blue city democratic leaders cry out ?Why are attacks by black supremacist drop from headlines and newscast within days(as the number of these attacks increase) and the Jan.6 protest bought up every week for over a year?
wpm says
Frank James has a long rap sheet a history of violence (he is 62 years old he has a history of violence over 35 years),many of his on line rants against white people(one saying he was going to shot white people the day before the shooting), he was on the FBI watch list ,why was he drop from that watch list in 2019?What is the FBI job or mission to protect the general public from violent dangerous people or terrorist ,or to carry water for woke political leaders? White supremacist are dangerous people who should be watched and arrested if they threaten violence ,why are black supremacist given a free pass when they threaten violence against white people on line especial when they have a history of violent behavior? After the shooting on the subway why was not a description of Frank James put out right away when he was names a “person of interest”? Good job by NYPD Frank James turn himself in after a few days walking the streets on lower Manhattan, Mayor Adams brag on TV we got him like they really crack the case!

Black Muslims have a DOUBLE MOTIVE to hate: racial and religious. Black separatists claim the need for revenge, and black Muslims claim they must hate KAFIRS ‘for the sake of Allah’.
When the two hatreds are combined in the mind of these brainwashed fanatics, the result is potentially very dangerous.
In spite of a few delusional fanatics who attack white people, the majority of black terrorists are criminals who attack other black people.
wpm says
A terrorist has a different motive then a common criminal .A common criminal does not do his crime for what he thinks is a higher cause be it religious or political or both like jihad .A common criminal in most cases is not a “brainwashed fanatic” and more logical thinking then then cult following group thinking terrorist member .A terrorist many times does not care or really wants to be caught ,does not care if he or she dies doing a terrorist act .In the terrorist acts listed in this article are examples of blacks trying to kill whites and Asians or police officers because they are white or Asian or police officers trying to terrorist those groups .These people have a political or religious motive or both.

This sort of thing really makes me wonder if blacks and whites can ever live together in the same country. If this black man hated white people so much why did he just not move to another country where he would not be likely to see anyone white? There are numerous predominantly white countries who take in black immigrants. Surely there are at least a few predominantly black countries which will take in black immigrants. I remember a few years ago the government of Ghana (I think) was asking for black people from the U.S. to come help them build their country. I wonder if anyone responded and if not, why not? People are not being held in the U.S. against their will – except for those who have committed a crime. Now this man will lose every bit of freedom he once enjoyed but which he threw away because of his hatred for white people (who would have let him leave any time he wanted).
BTW, it appears as if the thing that finally set him off was his finding out that Katanii Brown Jackson is married to a white man. I wonder if he knew that Clarence Thomas is married to a white woman? So yes, black and white people can live together in the U.S. but the people who can’t accept this should just go to another country.

I have known and been friends with Black people since I was old enough to walk outside on my own.. like from the age of 3 or 4. My family worked alongside Black people who came to the farm where we lived and were sharecroppers. When I became an adult, it was natural to continue being friends with Blacks, Asians,…whomever came along and I could befriend. I have bi-racial grandchildren. People are people.
It’s the racists …of any shade of skin…who make the trouble and cause those with scant reasoning ability to go off the deep end, believing lies and propaganda. Some people, like sharpton and jackson, harris and booker, and a whole herd in the Black Caucus of the government, make their professional living off the lies that Whites are out to commit genocide on the Black race.
Some Whites have become loud voices against their own skin shade…for profit. If they really felt as they say Whites should feel, there would be some massive suicides among that group. Who could live with the fact of being a racist and even wanting to be different, could not do so? How depressing.”
mozlums kill when they find out that an infidel is dating or has married a mozlum, and not converted…because they are taught to hate infidels and that it is their right to murder others.
this Black guy fed on les, hate and anger and then acted on the lies and showed he hated Whites, even little kids and teenagers. What an evil is loose in society…and many have much for which they will answer.

The victims should file law suite against BLM founders who are living in mansions worth millions of dollars.

He is claiming that white people were plotting to kill all black people as he plots to kill white people. He has an extreme fear of white people and their ability to kill when pushed to it. Thankfully he did a lousy job of killing whites.
“It’s just a matter of time before these white motherf—–s decide, ‘Hey listen. Enough is enough. These n—ers got to go.’”
You are not at the top of the list so don’t get all full of yourself Frank. The first priority in an enough is enough scenario would be the mostly white left that have been smearing white people with their inflammatory lies.They are the ones that I really dislike. So that will be a waning sign for him, a heads up if you will, that white people have decided that enough is enough.

This was all projection on his part.

Off topic. Any idea what happened to the recent comments section that was on the old web page but not the new one? I followed that all the time many times never commenting on other peoples comments. Especially commenters that I am familiar with and like to read what they are thinking. It really needs to be brought back.
gravenimage says
Do you mean the “Recent Comments” segment, that showed the five or six most recent comments? I miss this feature too.
I’ve asked about it but have not heard back. I need to write again. Anyone who misses this feature should write in to the “Contact Us” box at the right-hand side of the page.
I agree it was very useful.
tgusa says
“Do you mean the “Recent Comments” segment”
Yes, I do.
somehistory says
Look at the dashboard. recent comments are there.
gravenimage says
Somehistory, at the risk of sounding technologically clueless–which I often am–how do you access the dashboard?
somehistory says
g,
I know the feeling. Go to the page where you do when you log in. You know, where you select your color themes, etc. On the left of the page, you see things like “visit site,” and I think the “dashboard” is right below that.
If you click on that, the recent articles will come up and under those, will be the recent comments. If you click on one, it takes you to the article page and you have to scroll down until you find the comment you want to read or reply to.
somehistory says
You can also see the dashboard if you hover over the “robertspencer.org” at the top of this page on the left. when the dashboard comes up, click on it.
gravenimage says
Thank you, Somehistory.
somehistory says
glad I could help, g.
tgusa says
somehistory,
Not finding the dashboard at any of those places and I am tech savvy. Someone couldn’t have done a better job hiding it. I don’t log in anywhere I just type my name and email under the comment I am ready to post and click post comment.
somehistory says
tgusa,
Okay when you are commenting, look up at the top of the page on the left. there should be the w for wordpress, and then a little blue grey icon right next to robertspencer.org. It is in the same place on the “homepage”. It’s very small writing, and on my computer it is gray on black.
If you hover over the icon or the name, it should say “dashboard.” If you click on that, it should take you to the page where comment are found.
If this doesn’t work for you, contact marc and perhaps he can assist you better than I. Hope this helps.
tgusa says
I dot see any of that. I use Firefox and an older operating system but it has been, my trusted computer, for a long time. No gray on black icon to hover over so i cant do that. Perhaps I need to cheek it out on another computer.
Thank you for your consideration and reply.

A Shooter Puts Critical Race Theory into Practice
……………..
As Daniel Greenfield notes, this *is* Critial Race Theory in action.
It is also Jihad–the shooter is Nation of Islam. NOI may not be completely orthodox Islam, but it is just as murderous as its more mainstream sect.
Keys says
Precisely so !
Ironic for this murderous soul and the venomous NOI that their deceitful model man, the Prophet Mohammad with his black “raisin head” slaves, was a white man.
Who knows why Mohammad referred to black people as raisin heads – maybe he had seen a lot of black people whose faces were wrinkled by the sun.
gravenimage says
Muhammed also regarded Blacks as “abd”–slaves. Islam is terribly racist, and Muslims in Africa enslave Blacks there to this day.
