Assaults on students at Seattle's Roosevelt High School

I attended Roosevelt from 77-81. I was robbed twice on school grounds by black students, and this was almost a daily occurrence among my friends back then. The attackers were nearly always kids that had been bussed in from other schools, so we never knew who they were, and they typically disappeared from school for a week or two afterwards, so the problem never went away.

Regarding reader "Roosevelt" comment about baseball bats...it was also fairly common for people to show up at school with a trunk full of them after an incident.

I know one student who ran down the stairs in front of the school when a black kid pulled a knife and attempted to rob him. The attacker threw the knife from the top of the stairs and managed to nick my friend in the back.

I'm not afraid to say that it was black students committing these crimes, because that's who it was. Is it racist to state that fact? I don't recall a single instance of a friend being robbed by another white kid.

I had many black friends in high school, and still have many today. I don't care what color a persons skin is as long as they are good people. Unfortunately, many experiences in high school and while living in the Central District for three years have made me wary.

Is the "Revolution" of the oppressed killing their oppressors?

A lot of academic ink has expressed, and orthodoxies of political dissent have rallied around, the immobile poor rising up against those with more. The idea has a ring of justice.

Here is an instance of young, poor, immobile black men killing a successful, UNC student body president, 22 year old woman. The black men entered her apartment, took her to an ATM and got cash ( their are ATM surveillance photos on the web here), and then shot her several times, once in the temple.

This is not just poor doing a criminal act to get money, that can be done easily without killing anyone. This is not about money, this is the immobile poor targeting the wealthier for execution. Take a look at this story and ask yourself if this is a form of dissent you will let stand. Autopsy of UNC student-CNN.

To me, this trend of poor young blacks killing whites, asians, indian grad students, and anyone not immobile and poor is unacceptable. It needs to be named, condemned loudly in the political mainstream, and earnestly fought.

The result if this cannot be spoken about clearly in mainstream media? It stays a silent war and the relatively wealthier will continue to live in non-mixed-income neighborhoods inaccessible to the pedestrian poor. This works fine for those who don't care for urban life. For me economically homogenous suburbs are a bore. I live in an inner-city with a healthy mix of people. The poor who feel justified in killing the more successful are the biggest threat to that healthy mix of people.

Crime Spree 1

Victim: Marjorie Llewellyn, age 72 , white. While visiting the Newnan Wal-Mart the morning of March 7 ,2008, she was attacked by 23-year-old Courtney L. Lockhart. He then told her he was going to rob her, take her car and kill her. LLewellyn managed to resist, and with the intervention of strangers, survived the attack. Victim: Laura Burke, age 18, white. Lockhart held her at gunpoint on campus, forcing her into his car, driving off with her inside, stealing her bank card and attempting to rape her. When she tried to escape, Lockhart shot her, and fled leaving her to die.

Crime Spree 2

Victim: Eve Marie Carson, age 22, white. Carson's body was found at the intersection of Hillcrest Circle and Hillcrest Drive in Chapel Hill at approximately 5 a.m. on March 5, 2008.Police could not immediately identify the body, but at 9 a.m. on March 6, 2008 police investigators and the office of the medical examiner identified the body as that of Carson. Chapel Hill Police Chief Brian Curran said that Carson's death appeared to be a random act. Police recovered her car more than a mile away from her body after receiving a tip from a local witness. Police also released images from a security video of a person using Carson's ATM card. The medical examiner said that Carson had not been sexually assaulted. Carson was shot several times, including once in the temple. Laurence Alvin Lovette Jr. was arrested almost 24 hours after the arrest of a man who, police say, joined him in the murder. Lovette, 17, and Demario James Atwater, 21, were charged on March 11, 2008 with first-degree murder in the crime. Lovette is also now being held in connection with the January murder of 29-year-old Duke University engineering student Abhijit Mahato.

All the above crimes were committed by young black men and the victims were white. To these I should add the story of mother and father ( both white ). Two black men kicked the door in on their home around 7:00 PM one evening, made them kneel and the floor, and held guns on them. My dad talked the men out of killing, and the men stole my mother's car. They were later apprehended and are serving time. My mother tells me she regularly overheard blacks talking loudly in front of their house say "we need to get these whites out of the neighborhood". My mom and dad never spent another day in that house, so I guess the racial cleansing by the blacks was successful.

My sister had the misfortune to see 17 year old, and black, Joshua Leallen Loften blow the head off of Dean Worden. a white man, in front of his wife and children. My sister was at close range and actually saw the man be shot and die. The black killer was beating a 50 year-old white woman because she would not give him her purse. Worden had yelled at Loften to stop beating the lady, and Loften killed him. This was in pleasant shopping area on a Sunday afternoon.

Could we have a secret terrorism on whites in the USA? I contend that we do. Within my immediate family there are two incidents of black males terrorizing or killing whites. Definitely a pattern.

The most major social catastrophe that will result from these murders is the eroding of progressive gains in poorer neighborhoods. The public under threat from this Jihad will do more of the same: move to safer and more exclusive regions. The losers will be poor black neighborhoods, full of hard working regular people and home to a few militantly hostile agents.

It is interesting that all the above cases were solved by viewing surveillance cameras. I believe these cameras are saving us. These men are now behind bars because of the technology.

I would like to see the public gain an awareness of this black murdering of upwardly mobile college students as a pattern, give it a name, and start aggressively combatting it. As a culture we should be able to articulate a solution that pinpoints these militantly angry blacks as worthy of death without saying a general statement about blacks -a progressive offensive posture.
