In the New York Times opinion section, Bret Stephens makes some excellent points about the outbreak of anti-white racism, if I do say so myself:
Race and the Coming Liberal Crackup
April 26, 2021
By Bret Stephens, Opinion Columnist… But what about a case like that of Ma’Khia Bryant, a Black teenager who was shot and killed last week by Nicholas Reardon, a white police officer in Columbus, Ohio, at the instant that she was swinging a knife at a woman who had her back against a car?
Ben Crump, the Floyd family’s lawyer, accused the Columbus police in a tweet of killing “an unarmed 15yo Black girl.” Valerie Jarrett, the former Obama adviser, tweeted that Bryant “was killed because a police officer immediately decided to shoot her multiple times in order to break up a knife fight.” Jarrett wants to “Demand accountability” and “Fight for justice.”
An alternative view: Maybe there wasn’t time for Officer Reardon, in an 11-second interaction, to “de-escalate” the situation, as he is now being faulted for failing to do. And maybe the balance of our sympathies should lie not with the would-be perpetrator of a violent assault but with the cop who saved a Black life — namely that of Tionna Bonner, who nearly had Bryant’s knife thrust into her.
That’s a thought that many, perhaps most, Americans share, even if they are increasingly reluctant to say it out loud. Why reluctant? Because in this era of with-us-or-against-us politics, to have misgivings about the left’s new “anti-racist” narrative is to run the risk of being denounced as a racist. Much better to nod along at your office’s diversity, equity and inclusion
C’mon, Bret, in for a penny, in for a pound: call it “diversity, inclusion, and equity.”
sessions than suggest that enforced political indoctrination should not become a staple of American workplace culture.
And yet those doubts and misgivings go to the heart of what used to be thought of as liberalism. The result will be a liberal crackup similar to the one in the late 1960s that broke liberalism as America’s dominant political force for a generation.
You know, I was just thinking about LBJ and “Joe Biden’s Long Hot Spring.”
… Above all, liberalism believes that truth tends to be many-shaded and complex. Anti-racism is a great simplifier. Good and evil. Black and white.
This is where the anti-racism narrative will profoundly alienate liberal-minded America, even as it entrenches itself in schools, universities, corporations and other institutions of American life.
You may have an excessively high opinion of liberals, Bret. This whole John Stuart Mill tradition of having high principles is kind of a drag, and when given the chance to just simplify public life into Good Guys vs. Bad Guys, which you can tell from how many Intersectional Pokemon Points they have, many liberals have jumped at it.
It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil and not see a racist motive in every bad encounter between a white cop and a minority suspect, including the recent shootings of Adam Toledo in Chicago and Daunte Wright in Minnesota. It’s possible to think that the police make too many assumptions about young Black men, sometimes with tragic consequences, and still recognize that young Black men commit violent crimes at a terribly disproportionate rate. It’s possible to believe that effective policing requires that cops gain the trust of the communities they serve while recognizing that those communities are ill served when cops are afraid to do their jobs.
It is also possible to recognize that we have miles to go in ending racism while also objecting to the condescending assumptions and illiberal methods of the anti-racist creed. The idea that white skin automatically confers “privilege” in America is a strange concept to millions of working-class whites who have endured generations of poverty while missing out on the benefits of the past 50 years of affirmative action programs.
Similarly, the idea that past discrimination or even present-day inequality justifies explicit racial preferences in government policy is an affront to liberal values, and will become only more so as the practices become more common. In Oakland the mayor backed an initiative that was to provide $500 a month to low-income families, but not if they were white. In Vermont, the state has given people of color priority for Covid vaccines.
Ibram X. Kendi, the most important anti-racist thinker today, argues that “the only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” Some liberals will go along with this. Many others will find themselves drifting rightward, much as a past generation of disaffected liberals did. …
Indeed.
As I may have mentioned, I run iSteve fundraisers in April, August, and December.
Large or small, I find each donation to be a personal message of encouragement to keep doing what I’m doing. I more or less figured out the basic logic of the 21st Century, which hasn’t made me popular, but with your support I can keep on keeping on pointing out how the world works.
Here are eight ways for you to contribute:
First: Most banks now allow fee-free money transfers via Zelle.
Zelle is really a good system: easy to use and the fees are nonexistent, unlike, say, Paypal.
I’ve moved Zelle up to number one rather than Paypal because Zelle does not charge a 2.9% fee like Paypal does.
You guys in the Paypal Mafia are great, but you’ve made enough money off me and my readers. (Cravenly: Readers, please feel free to send me money via Paypal if you feel like that would be most convenient for you: 97.1% is great!)
If you have a Wells Fargo bank account, you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Wells Fargo SurePay/Zelle. Just tell WF SurePay/Zelle to send the money to my ancient AOL email address steveslrAT aol.com — replace the AT with the usual @). (Non-tax deductible.) Please note, there is no 2.9% fee like with Paypal or Google Wallet, so this is good for large contributions.
Second: if you have a Chase bank account (or even other bank accounts), you can transfer money to me (with no fees) via Chase QuickPay/Zelle (FAQ). Just tell Chase QuickPay/Zelle to send the money to my ancient AOL email address (steveslrATaol.com — replace the AT with the usual @). If Chase asks for the name on my account, it’s StevenSailer with an n at the end of Steven. (Non-tax deductible.) There is no 2.9% fee like with Paypal or Google Wallet, so this is also good for large contributions.
Third, Zelle might work with other banks too. Here’s a Zelle link for CitiBank. And Bank of America.
Fourth: You can use Paypal (non-tax deductible) by going to the page on my old blog here. Paypal accepts most credit cards. Contributions can be either one-time only, monthly, or annual. (Monthly is nice.)
Fifth: You can mail a non-tax deductible donation to:
Steve Sailer
P.O Box 4142
Valley Village, CA 91617
Sixth: You can make a tax deductible contribution via VDARE by clicking here.
Please don’t forget to click my name at the VDARE site so the money goes to me: first, click on “Earmark your donation,” then click on “Steve Sailer:”

VDARE has been kiboshed from use of Paypal for being, I dunno, EVIL. But you can give via credit cards, Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin, check, money order, or stock.
Note: the VDARE site goes up and down on its own schedule, so if this link stops working, please let me know.
Seventh: send money via the Paypal-like Google Wallet to my Gmail address (that’s isteveslrATgmail .com — replace the AT with a @). (Non-tax deductible.)
Eight: You can use Bitcoin using Coinbase. Coinbase payments are not tax deductible. Below are links to two Coinbase pages of mine. This first is if you want to enter a U.S. dollar-denominated amount to pay me.
Pay With Bitcoin (denominated in U.S. Dollars)
This second is if you want to enter a Bitcoin-denominated amount. (Remember one Bitcoin is currently worth many U.S. dollars.)
Pay With Bitcoin (denominated in Bitcoins)
Ninth: At one reader’s request, I recently added Square as an 8th fundraising medium, although I’m vague on how it works. If you want to use Square, send me an email telling me how much to send you an invoice for. Or, if you know an easier way for us to use Square, please let me know.
Thanks.

I prefer the really obvious false and hateful BLM style rhetoric to this more nuanced and plausible but actually only marginally less false and hateful kind of pre-BLM pablum.
Only if one believes that blacks and whites are exactly the same apart from skin color and other superficial anatomical differences, that race "beneath the skin" is an "artificial social construct, and that all disparities between whites and blacks (save for the NFL and NBA and sprinting) are historically, culturally, and politically determined, and thus evidence of "systemic racism" and "white supremacy" after over half a century of the "illiberal methods of the anti-racist creed."
Ergo, the solution to "ending racism" is to enact and impose "illiberal methods" that are increasingly fanatical, intrusive, repressive, totalitarian, and discriminatory, punitive, baneful, and iniquitous for whites,
Don’t fall for it. This is their semi-monthly “See, we’re not slanted!” piece that also serves as a strawman to eviscerate tomorrow.
I too am a suspicious SOB. Although Stephens is an elite Jew and Jews in general are becoming mighty alarmed by the lack of love shown to them by the overclass of coloured. They pine for the days of Christian Zionist servility.
The best solution for POC is to leave the country. The last year proves you have no home here. Remember, the USA does not require exit visas. That could always change.

This elite cultural habit of hyperbole when talking about black stuff is just weird. Obviously, the death of George Floyd isn’t the epitome of evil, even if you agree with the jury. If you made a list of the 1,000,000 most evil things to happen in American history, George Floyd’s death wouldn’t even make the list. I’m not sure it would even make the list of the 100,000 most evil things to happen in America this year.

Yawn. Bret Stephens is just another minoritarian Jew who doesn’t particularly like blacks.
Deep down, probably thinks Harvard quotas and the Golfocaust and immigration restriction!!! are sufficient evidence of evil white gentile oppression to justify imposing the minoritarian regime and stealing our nation. Having to drag in slavery and Jim Crow to make the minoritarian case and end up slumming with this tedious blackety, blackety stuff … very unpleasant for Bret’s self-image.
~~
Not really. Floyd wasn’t “murdered”. (We just don’t know if he was drugged up ass was salvageable at all.) And really “epitome of evil”. Someone looking at the video and thinking “epitome of incompetence” … ok. “Evil”, come on.
LOL. What cheek. Immigration has nothing to do with that?
Stephens has lectured us numerous times–i’ve read a couple, i’m sure there are more–that working class Americans are useless sacks of shit and need to be replaced by harder working foreigners (so Jews like him can have some cheaper services and/or make more money).
~
Again, just a minoritarian Jew who doesn’t like Blacks–doesn’t like being in the boat with Blacks.
Sorry, that’s the minoritarian boat in America. I know you aren’t loyal to Americans like me, Bret. Blacks are your shipmates–get used to it.
In a comment below yours, Jonathan Mason asserts that the NYT publishing Stephens suggests, nay, proves that there is no The Narrative.
There's Brett clinging to the far-right side of the Overton Window, professing belief that Chauvin is the most worst evildoer in Current Year America. Is that what he actually thinks, or is it what he has to say to keep cashing paychecks? Hardly matters.
Since Stephens is a wordsmith, let's look at a longer excerpt.
> It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil and not see a racist motive in every bad encounter between a white cop and a minority suspect
Parsing the convoluted grammar, Stevens implies that it's not possible to not see the racist motive in the bad encounter between white cop Chauvin and minority suspect Floyd.
The Narrative's House Conservative agrees in passing that Chauvin is evil because Chavin is racist. And Chauvin is racist because Chauvin is evil. He is doubly deserving of his triple conviction for murder.
There's no daylight between Brett Stevens and Lester Holt on this point. Further proving that there's no The Narrative.
Both times by the same man at the same time.
Once intentionally (second degree) , once unintentionally (third degree), then for good measure he was man-slaughtered.
This explains his sainthood. Mere humans like you and I will only die once, him?- Thrice.
Floyd was desperately unlucky in his choice of State: It is only possible to be third degree'd to death in 3 States. Minnesota, Pennsylvania and Florida.
New Mexico and Wisconsin decided to save lives by rescinding the laws that made it possible to kill someone that way.

How do you kill a meme, a narrative, an idea? Can this even be stopped? It’s leading us to a very bad place.
“The Racial Literacy Curriculum begins in kindergarten with 5- and 6-year-olds using Pantone Color Charts to match their skin tone so that they might start to see themselves and one another by skin color. “Recognizing and categorizing color is a foundational skill for early grades, and will be used as a platform for upcoming lessons that discuss skin color.”
“This curriculum includes a unique view of nearly every educational discipline, such as in sixth grade history where children discover that the essence of Nazism was not the destruction of European Jewry but the rise of “whiteness.” Pollyanna’s main coverage of the Jewish experience is reduced to an odd and passing reference to the “Eastern European Hebrew” race.”
“By eighth grade, the curriculum’s goal is to create “social justice” action plans that address how “systemic racism provided social, economic, political, and legal advantages to White Americans.” Students devise plans and launch campaigns that seek to overturn white privilege in the “community or city of the student body, or may reach broader, such as to the national level and beyond.”

Stephen’s gotta learn the secret to a great political coalition marriage:
Only then can the coalition of the fringes live in peace.
Polygamy is supposed to be ideal for the husband. One for the family business one for homemaking one as governess for all the kids one as trophy or maid of all work
But it never works out.
Chinese explanation of why 4 wives is ideal. One wife, whether a farm labor family or wealthy, it’s just too much work for one Woman. Two wives good for sharing the work, but the two wives gang up against the husband. Three wives is the worst. It’s a constantly changing mess of two wives against one with husband as reluctant referee. Four wives is ideal. Two wives against two wives and husband can stay out of it.Replies: @Kronos

Again this talking point is 60 years out of date. (How old is this Bret guy anyway?) Today’s liberalism manifestly seeks to create racism, specifically against whites.

Very striking report from Brookings: “In 2019, for the first time, more than half of the nation’s population under age 16 identified as a racial or ethnic minority.

This is spicy content for the NYT, but it misses the point. Saying “gee golly, Dems have become the real racists” is not good for much.

I don’t think Mr Stephens would like my answer. I don’t think Mr Sailer would print it
Funny that the New York Times should choose to publish this column when it runs against the official “narrative.”
Maybe there is no official narrative.
Apart from a few predictable comments by blacktivists nobody has really called officer Reardon a murderer. Most people think he should be promoted.
When will people realize that with Twitter and suchlike all fringe activists are constantly on the lookout for opportunities to piggyback their schtick on to somebody who is in the news or somebody who has a famous name?
The obvious example is the defenestration of Richard Dawkins via the feeble move of removing an insignificant award from a quarter of a century ago as a way of announcing that the American Humanist Association is no longer humanist, and getting its name in the headlines when most people had forgotten it existed 25 years ago, being a organization consisting of a few academics who are opposed to organized religion.
This is about as pathetic as Pat Robertson announcing that a hurricane was God’s punishment for homosexuality.
The fact is that nobody who uses the term “narrative” actually believes the story that purports to be the narrative. The narrative is always a party political broadcast on behalf of the other party.
It was funny to see Oprah Winfrey in a recent interview with her voice shaking as she denied realizing that her interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry would cause outrage and that people don’t realize how difficult it is to sell expensive advertising to vaginal douche people.

She was just a child…
…with a knife in her hand…
trying to stab another girl… and a puppy.
Now, the question is, WHY, having seen a police car approaching and then a policeman with a gun pointing at her telling to “stop”, why didn’t she just stop? Was she so caught up in the act that she didn’t see or hear the policeman? Or was killing the other girl first more important to her?
Poor girl, but this almost amounts to suicide-by-cop.
Very likely.
Or was killing the other girl first more important to her?
"Killing" is such a harsh word; she was just funnin' aroun', see?
Why did the conflict escalate just when the police arrived? I once bit a sibling and ran off for my parents but I was four.
Maybe there's some stuff that happened off camera that we don't know about.
And maybe she didn't mean to kill the other girl, just stab her up a little, and then have the cop break it up before it got too serious. She may have felt like a lot of media commenters that stabbing is not such a big deal, and was surprised that the officer took stabbing so seriously. Sometimes psychologists talk about a "holding environment" where the presence of an authority figure allows people to be more emotionally or verbally aggressive because they know someone will keep it from going too far. I guess she misjudged where "too far" starts. I mean, we saw her dad kick a helpless kid laying on the ground in the head, so I'd assume that she's seen plenty of violence growing up.
“run the risk of being denounced”
Or being fired. Or having your kid kicked out of school. Go ahead, you can say these. You should. Tucker didn’t.

Nah, this is an attempt to recapture the public to the Party Line. Too many people in the center are seeking information from outside the prestige media. To allow the reigning narrative to continue to spread and dominate, they need those people to stay within the NYT-CNN corral. Hence Bill Maher suddenly pivotting against sentiments he expressed merely days before.

What’s surreal and depressing is the number of people who think that Ma’Khia Bryant’s target, Tionna Bonner, should have been expected to bear a chance of death so that the cop could spare Bryant’s life. That’s not even considering the fact that Reardon would have still had to disarm Bryant at some point, perhaps after Bonner was laying on the driveway, bleeding out.
What degree of risk should a would-be victim be expected to bear in order to save a perpetrator’s life? A 20% risk of death? A 1% risk of death?
I frankly don’t care if only 0.1% of knife assaults are fatal. We have no right to expect Bonner or any other potential victim to face risk of death or serious injury in order to save the life of a violent assailant. This has long been the attitude of most Americans of all ages and races towards criminals. A criminal may not deserve death for whatever particular crime he is committing – burglary, passing a fake $20, or whatever – but if he happens to die in the commission of that crime by resisting arrest or because a homeowner or store owner happens to be armed, then most Americans have long felt that the perp made his choice, and no one else but him should be expected to bear the risk of it.
But now, and without any debate whatsoever, the establishment has determined that both police and innocent civilians (but not congressmen in a Capitol building being swarmed by protestors) should have to accept a significant increase in loss of life and property in order to spare the lives of these thugs.
Unless and until they decide to name Ashli Babbitt’s killer and charge him with murder, then their arguments aren’t even worthy of consideration.

Brett Stephens is part of the acceptable “conservative” narrative that the NYT publishes in order to give themselves cover for claiming to be nonpartisan, just like having Douthat and Brooks write columns accomplishes the same thing. They would never have anyone like Steve who fundamentally challenged their worldview writing in their paper, that is also why they fired Razib Khan right after hiring him ( and before he could write a column for them ).
True. And beyond ideology, they would never have anyone, even for an op-ed, who is smarter, more insightful, more fastidious in research, more quantitative, more thoughtful, more witty, than their own writers. I observed this when The Financial Times cancelled Christopher Caldwell. He is really good —like an Unz essayist — and that was too good for them to stomach.

But now, and without any debate whatsoever, the establishment has determined that both police and innocent civilians (but not congressmen in a Capitol building being swarmed by protestors) should have to accept a significant increase in loss of life and property in order to spare the lives of these thugs.

It’s the kind of hair cut a transgender activist parent gives a little girl on visiting weekend. To the outrage of custodial parent on Sunday night. Or more jobs for Family Court judges, lawyers counselors, consultants, coordinators social workers and mediators. It’s the first step in a
F to M transition. As bad as growing a boys hair long and putting on pink ribbons to match his pink ruffles dress.
Girl’s hair is too thick and curly for today’s fashions. But 35 years ago longer than shoulder length, much too thick, frizzy hair was the height of style. Check out Julie Roberts Nicole Kidman and others. A below the shoulders mass of frizz sticking 5 inches up on top 6 inches out on the sides. Like they glued a sheepskin to their head.
Most schools nowadays have a strict health code that long hair must be in braids or ponytails to prevent lice a major problem in schools.
School employees have always cut bangs that flop in the eyes for both girls and boys. They’ve always used bands and barrettes to secure girl’s unruly hair specially if other kids made fun of it. They send notes home, get a boys hair cut the other kids are making fun of him.
But this long girls hair to a boy’s cut is egregious and outrageous. Took a long time. Not cutting bangs or making a ponytail. I believe the school district is not liable because. Cutting off 10 inches of hair to give a girl a boys haircut is way way outside the scope of a librarian responsibilities and duties.

In all seriousness, has anyone estimated the odds that Reardon actually saved the second girl’s life?
Killing someone with a knife is hard. It takes some strength and technique, both of which I doubt Bryant possessed.
I think there’s only a 5-10% chance that the other girl would have died, had she been stabbed. Bryant was enraged and probably, even at the best of times, no particularly calculating person. It’s most likely that she would have missed entirely, or merely struck a glancing blow.
But I’m not an expert in these things.
A meta-problem here is the secularism of our elites, including Bret.
I think it is easy to overanalyze these situations.
Some people including eyewitnesses have said that the cop should have “de-escalated” the situation before shooting, but these are just ignorant people who have heard the word the “deescalated” somewhere, but have never themselves being in a violent situation where the escalation has been attempted, and have no real understanding of the danger of the situation or of the responsibility of the cop.
You just can’t take the quotations and Tweets from passers-by and commenters and give them credibility.
That would be like building a newspaper story around a reader comment in the Daily Mail, where nearly all the commenters are naive and ignorant and just reacting from the gut to stories that they see as having perhaps at best some similarity to something that they have them selves experienced at sometime in their life.
This is a general feature of newspaper comment sections. For example there have been many commented articles in Britain’s The Guardian, which appeals to a fairly intellectual readership (or used to) that have been critical of the quality of care in national health service hospitals.
However almost none of the hundreds of commenters ever identify as hospital managers, executives, or medical personnel–so are nearly always commenting from the position of very limited expertise.
That doesn’t mean that comments based on personal experience should be ignored, but comments that weigh up a number of factors and perspectives are inherently more valuable than unsupported first-person narratives about how somebody could not find a nurse to give their relative a pitcher of water at visiting time.
(Well maybe the relative is on fluid restrictions for medical reasons, or maybe the nurses take meal breaks or go to the bathroom during visiting times so as not to perform medical procedures that interrupt visitation.)
Some of us will remember the age before the internet, when mass media were much less democratized, and a letter to the editor had to be very good indeed to get published.
Unfortunately today there are way too many random opinions getting published for no particular reason.
Part of the reason for this is that whenever a journalist is short of a story, they can just go to Twitter or Facebook and there is a story ready to be written complete with a nice quote and a video.
There is a story today in The Daily Mail that leads with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sponsoring a concert in which artists will demand that the US donates unused vaccines to India.
The story then goes on to discuss vaccine distribution without further reference to the Fresh Prince and his missus, having reeled in readers with a reference to the loose-lipped couple, but there is a serious discussion to be had about these success or failure of the United Nations COVAX program for sharing of vaccines.
Perhaps there is a need for a global summit of vaccine manufacturers to plan vaccination of the entire planet, not just India, but maybe that is a story that cannot be told in popular (dumbed down) media and unless you use a celebrity as a hook for the story.
My neighbor was a DEA agent who worked in about every Central American Country. I believe that the police in Central America have the right tactics to apply to the Colored People… or People of Color.
When they would show up at a crime scene that was active, they would wait for the activity to stop. Be it shooting, fighting, knifing, macheteing etc.
They would tell my DEA neighbor when he rode along… No amigo. wait… And after the shooting stopped, they would then call the ambulance if there were any live bodies left… or the morgue if not…
I believe that is the best way to police the colored folk. Let it run its natural course and then clean up afterward.
> It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil
In a comment below yours, Jonathan Mason asserts that the NYT publishing Stephens suggests, nay, proves that there is no The Narrative.
There’s Brett clinging to the far-right side of the Overton Window, professing belief that Chauvin is the most worst evildoer in Current Year America. Is that what he actually thinks, or is it what he has to say to keep cashing paychecks? Hardly matters.
Since Stephens is a wordsmith, let’s look at a longer excerpt.
> It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil and not see a racist motive in every bad encounter between a white cop and a minority suspect
Parsing the convoluted grammar, Stevens implies that it’s not possible to not see the racist motive in the bad encounter between white cop Chauvin and minority suspect Floyd.
The Narrative’s House Conservative agrees in passing that Chauvin is evil because Chavin is racist. And Chauvin is racist because Chauvin is evil. He is doubly deserving of his triple conviction for murder.
There’s no daylight between Brett Stevens and Lester Holt on this point. Further proving that there’s no The Narrative.
Neo-Con Warmonger Open Borders Fanatic NY Times Columnist Bret Stephens:
It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil and not see a racist motive in every bad encounter between a white cop and a minority suspect, including the recent shootings of Adam Toledo in Chicago and Daunte Wright in Minnesota. It’s possible to think that the police make too many assumptions about young Black men, sometimes with tragic consequences, and still recognize that young Black men commit violent crimes at a terribly disproportionate rate. It’s possible to believe that effective policing requires that cops gain the trust of the communities they serve while recognizing that those communities are ill served when cops are afraid to do their jobs.

A day or so ago I couldn’t believe my goddamn eyes when the sonofabitches at the NY Times admitted that many if not most of the opinion writers would benefit from the Democrat Party’s attempt to put back into place the State and Local Tax(SALT) deduction and they phucking know that states like New Jersey and California and New York and Connecticut have bloated beyond belief state government boondoggles involving government workers and the bastards pay that big fat state tax to buy peace in the valley from the vibrant ones in their states.

Two wives good for sharing the work, but the two wives gang up against the husband. Three wives is the worst.

Only if one believes that blacks and whites are exactly the same apart from skin color and other superficial anatomical differences, that race “beneath the skin” is an “artificial social construct, and that all disparities between whites and blacks (save for the NFL and NBA and sprinting) are historically, culturally, and politically determined, and thus evidence of “systemic racism” and “white supremacy” after over half a century of the “illiberal methods of the anti-racist creed.”
Ergo, the solution to “ending racism” is to enact and impose “illiberal methods” that are increasingly fanatical, intrusive, repressive, totalitarian, and discriminatory, punitive, baneful, and iniquitous for whites,

If America swings from liberals to right wing populism, it’s really not good for Jews. With the very notable exception of Trump, right wing populists tend to be harsh on Israel. People like Gaetz and Carlson harbor a loathing for Jews because they feel persecuted by Jews. I don’t know know why conservative Jews want to attack Democrats. It certainly won’t bring back predictable Republicans. The best strategy is to get liberals to pull back on BLM stuff for their own good. That way Democrats can be re-elected as president and pressure on Iran and protection of Israel will remain an unchallengable part of foreign policy.

That’s a great question, Dumbo. Especially when (apparently) MB is the one who called the cops to complain about a knife assault. And then waited for the cops before actually doing the knife assault.
Maybe there’s some stuff that happened off camera that we don’t know about.
And maybe she didn’t mean to kill the other girl, just stab her up a little, and then have the cop break it up before it got too serious. She may have felt like a lot of media commenters that stabbing is not such a big deal, and was surprised that the officer took stabbing so seriously. Sometimes psychologists talk about a “holding environment” where the presence of an authority figure allows people to be more emotionally or verbally aggressive because they know someone will keep it from going too far. I guess she misjudged where “too far” starts. I mean, we saw her dad kick a helpless kid laying on the ground in the head, so I’d assume that she’s seen plenty of violence growing up.

Seems to me that democrats have mastered the technique of getting the old whites to vote for them while screwing the young ones. The effects of this will probably be most burdensome to students, much like busing. Obviously, older voters don’t care about students. If they did, the US wouldn’t have been the only developed country to lock schools down for a year.
If the democrats can win or split the old white vote, they can have their way with our kids. I mean, when I was a kid I remember reading about medieval castration centers and thinking “thank God we’re more civilized now.” Guess I was pretty naive.
I really think a lot of older voters would have no problem selling poor white kids to Saudi slave dealers if it boosted their investment profile. Why should they care about critical race theory or BLM?
The only way to rectify this is to give each parent a half of a vote per child under 18. As it is, young families are badly underrepresented, and this is why our schools are at the mercy of people who either don’t like or don’t care about our kids.

This doesn’t mean Bret Stephens has joined the alt-right (not that they’d have him), but it is a good sign.
Newspapers these days make money off subscribers willing to pay for premium content, the NYT more than any (and is one of the few to make this work as most of them are folding left and left). If the NYT is starting to back off on wokeness and police-defunding, it means the powers that be have realized they have a revolt brewing (not to mention a growing crime problem) and are trying to signal to the ambitious upper-middle-class people in big cities who read this thing that they are going to have to compromise on this issue.
It’s not that Stephens is a good guy, it’s that guys like Steve blogging about rising crime rates are starting to scare the media people. (If you notice, he says Ibram Kendi is the ‘most important anti-racist thinker’, and then goes on to say why you shouldn’t listen to him.)
It’s also possible that rising crime rates in NYC are scaring, well, the New York Times.
So I’d see this as a sign of enemy weakness and push on it.
To quote Mao Tsetung (always learn from your enemies! Especially ones who used guerrilla warfare to conquer the most populous nation in the world):
“The enemy advances, we retreat; the enemy camps, we harass; the enemy tires, we attack; the enemy retreats, we pursue.”
You can argue whether the enemy is tiring or retreating. Anyway, they have a weak point–people of any ethnic background are afraid of crime. Press it. Bombard center-right locales like Fox and Breitbart with data showing rising crime. Meme the heck out of stuff like the Ma’Khia Bryant case where one picture shows where the media’s lying. This is the left’s weak point, and as Stephens says, this is what did them in 50-60 years ago.

No, that’s definitely it too. You can see it on Tablet and the guys like Mounk trying to tone down the wokeness.
How much of it’s Israel and how much of it’s ‘they’ll keep us out of Harvard!’ is anyone’s guess.
Bret Stephens = ‘useful idiot’, to borrow an old but still vibrant commie label.
Some Woke print media still have a few token non commies. They are passed off as “conservatives” but they are at best, old fashioned liberal Democrat statists.
Off topic but future iSteve fodder: Per today’s Wall St. Journal, the Oscar telecast was down a whopping 58% from last year’s record low viewership.
Of course according to reports, it was a Woke Love-in for “films” mainly on streaming services that few if anyone saw in any form or fashion.
They even re-jigged the usual Big Finale Award to be the Best Actor, rather than the traditional Best Film award. This was intended to doubly “honor” the now dead but supposed shoo-in black actor who had posthumously won a Golden Globe for that. Poor guy died of cancer before he won.
But very old white dude Anthony Hopkins upset the watermelon cart by winning the votes instead. About some old white guy suffering from dementia. No one saw that film either. But I think they are going to re-title it as “The Joe Biden Story” and hype the Oscar win.
Hollywood. Anything for a buck…
Before anyone claims it was no big deal, take a look at the before and after pictures. The librarian gave a girl with a glorious head of long golden honey brown frizzy curly hair a boy’s hair cut. It’s the exact same hair cut of 1& 1/2 inch fluff that lesbian Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has. Or a boy.
It’s the kind of hair cut a transgender activist parent gives a little girl on visiting weekend. To the outrage of custodial parent on Sunday night. Or more jobs for Family Court judges, lawyers counselors, consultants, coordinators social workers and mediators. It’s the first step in a
F to M transition. As bad as growing a boys hair long and putting on pink ribbons to match his pink ruffles dress.
Girl’s hair is too thick and curly for today’s fashions. But 35 years ago longer than shoulder length, much too thick, frizzy hair was the height of style. Check out Julie Roberts Nicole Kidman and others. A below the shoulders mass of frizz sticking 5 inches up on top 6 inches out on the sides. Like they glued a sheepskin to their head.
Most schools nowadays have a strict health code that long hair must be in braids or ponytails to prevent lice a major problem in schools.
School employees have always cut bangs that flop in the eyes for both girls and boys. They’ve always used bands and barrettes to secure girl’s unruly hair specially if other kids made fun of it. They send notes home, get a boys hair cut the other kids are making fun of him.
But this long girls hair to a boy’s cut is egregious and outrageous. Took a long time. Not cutting bangs or making a ponytail. I believe the school district is not liable because. Cutting off 10 inches of hair to give a girl a boys haircut is way way outside the scope of a librarian responsibilities and duties.
Librarian neglected duties and responsibilities to the other kids to spend all that time cutting one kids hair.
The hair cut was way way way outside anything normally done by school employees to kids hair.
Both the original do and the final one are a lot easier to stomach than is the name "Jurnee". Sounds like a loaf of white bread from some two-bit regional baker. Or cheap knock-off sneakers from Shenzhen.Replies: @Alden

If a school librarian cut my daughter’s beautiful long hair into a one inch boys cut, they’d get more than a curt call. A girl under 18 can’t get pierced ears without parental consent. Did you look st the before and after pictures.?
In some cultures cutting off girls and women’s hair is considered a humiliating punishment. Samoans living in America bring their wonderful culture of harsh, injurious physical punishment to America. One of their punishments is giving a girl a haircut like that. And making sure she doesn’t wear hats or scarves so everyone will know her shame and humiliation.
It’s easy to discern which commenters are parents and who are not.
I wonder if the librarian is a trans gender activist.
It’s not a civil rights violation. It’s assault and battery child abuse Penal Code violation.
Librarian should just do his her or it’s jib and not spend 45 minutes cutting hair while on the clock

I don’t know what Steve meant by saying that Bret Stephens went “full isteve”. But everything he quoted is just advocating going back to pre-BLM center left civil rights rhetoric.
Steve’s views on race, or anyone’s sensible views, are not getting anywhere near the nytimes anytime soon.
1) Officer Reardon actually did a crack job, in those 11s of interaction, in preventing a knife murder
2) There was the sarcastic remark about the D.I.E. bit, though Mr. Stephens could not use that order, as it would be too obviously taken off of iSteve.
3) That comparison to the 1960's and a liberal "crack up". (I don't personally agree we can make a comparison with the 1960's - America is done for this time around.)
True, after that, Brett Stephens relays the usual BS about race. He definitely didn't get his admiration of that Kendi guy from this site. That's for damn sure!Replies: @Charlotte
Also, don't forget that a year or two ago, Stephens boastfully cited the classic Cochran/Harpending paper on the evolution of Ashkenazi intelligence, then fled like a scalded cat when someone noted that Prof. Henry Harpending had been denounced as a "racist" by the SPLC.
Stephens is just a pretty typical Neocon, and the ur-Neocon was Norman Podhoretz, the longtime editor of Commentary. Podhoretz's most famous piece---published when he was still regarded as a leading leftist intellectual---was that rather candid and personal account of why he's always hated blacks. I tend to doubt Commentary would publish it these days...

It’s possible to look at Floyd’s murder as the epitome of evil and not see a racist motive in every bad encounter between a white cop and a minority suspect, including the recent shootings of Adam Toledo in Chicago and Daunte Wright in Minnesota. It’s possible to think that the police make too many assumptions about young Black men, sometimes with tragic consequences, and still recognize that young Black men commit violent crimes at a terribly disproportionate rate.

Officer Who Gave $25 to Kyle Rittenhouse’s Defense Is Fired
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/21/us/norfolk-police-kyle-rittenhouse-donation.html
Hackers got the list of donors from the GoFundMe-esque website. The donation and comment were private.
Here’s the “egregious comments” that were “not consistent with the department’s values” in full:
This seems like a statement of personal support that many Americans share, followed by a simple statement of fact that I think is probably true. He didn’t use the n-word or anything like that, and the message was intended to be private.
His dismissal seems so petty and cruel. Is there nothing short of the death penalty these days? Is there no departmental discipline that could have been meted out”
I wonder if the Times article was a rogue reporter slipping something through, or if from the standpoint of Times editors they think that all their readers agree this was a bad cop who had to be fired, so it was worthy of an end-zone touchdown celebration? If the latter, that level of delusion in the long run can only be good, since they will be inadvertently red-pilling more and more of their readers.
Cops love to act tough against defenseless civilians but they just stick their head in the sand when their bosses act tyrannically. This dude's entire department should strike. Then again, maybe everyone in his department hated him and this was just a pretext.
People act like the Chauvin verdict is dome watershed, but really it's just another step in a long pattern of politicians throwing cops under the bus. His colleagues will almost certainly all be convicted of every charge too whenever the state decides to try them.
At this point, any non-black cop who chooses to police a largely black population gets no sympathy from me at all. How many red flags do they need? Blacks don't want to be policed and our demonic elites are happy to ruin your life in order to rile up blacks and white traitors
Remember the black woman cop who robbed a restaurant in uniform and on duty? Her department is probably one of those that hire blacks too dumb to read. I think she killed someone too.
But a White cop!! They’re watching every word and movement trying to get him fired.

Just enough to suit
If the officer arrived at the scene few seconds earlier he would have shot Bryant while she was attacking the first girl. At that time Bryant had a knife in her hand when charging the first girl. Police officers have Pavlovian training to shoot to kill (multiple shots) in situation when a knife is spotted. However Bryant did not use the knife and just pushed the other girl who fell. Then Bryant turned around to attack the girl in pink and was shot multiple times in the back. The officer was few seconds too late to stop the attack against the first girl which we know would have been unnecessary.
If the officer had ability to process acquired information much faster than an average human being and drew conclusion from the first attack and if he was not subjected to the Pavlovian “knife-shoot-kill” training he would not have shot Bryan in the back because there was a high probability Bryant, just like in the first attack, would not have used the knife.
Valerie Jarrett is correct questioning the decision made by the police officer. However the questioning should not be directed at the officer himself who is just a Pavlovian dog who was successfully trained in shooting to kill but at the police philosophy, training and procedures.
No.
I saw a black-on-black stabbing once in my life. I was driving through the ghetto on my way to the DMV when I saw a woman make a quick move with her arm and then brandish a shiny, bloody knife above her head. She had just stabbed a man in the upper back, between the spine and left shoulder blade. He started walking away with wet blood on his shirt looking very unhappy. There was a crowd, so after slowing down to rubberneck for a bit, I moved along. I called the cops a couple minutes later at the dmv. They already knew about it. I think the guy was ok, but with a stabbing you never know.
There's no reason to believe the girl was bluffing. I'm not a cop, so I probably wouldn't have shot the girl in that situation (not my business), but if she had a knife and was ready to strike my kid, I would have smoked her right then and there.
And that's what you've got to ask yourself: if she had your kid up against a car and was ready to stab, would you have shot her or not? We pay cops to protect us all as we'd protect our own. That's why Reardon did his job right.
BTW, if you wouldn't shoot someone about to stab your kid, I guess that's your business, but don't expect the rest of us to be so cold-hearted and callous as that.Replies: @sayless
The officer told her repeatedly to drop the knife. If she was so out of it she didn't hear him or wouldn't comply then the risk was too great that she was going to use it.

What degree of risk should a would-be victim be expected to bear in order to save a perpetrator's life? A 20% risk of death? A 1% risk of death?
I frankly don't care if only 0.1% of knife assaults are fatal. We have no right to expect Bonner or any other potential victim to face risk of death or serious injury in order to save the life of a violent assailant. This has long been the attitude of most Americans of all ages and races towards criminals. A criminal may not deserve death for whatever particular crime he is committing - burglary, passing a fake $20, or whatever - but if he happens to die in the commission of that crime by resisting arrest or because a homeowner or store owner happens to be armed, then most Americans have long felt that the perp made his choice, and no one else but him should be expected to bear the risk of it.
But now, and without any debate whatsoever, the establishment has determined that both police and innocent civilians (but not congressmen in a Capitol building being swarmed by protestors) should have to accept a significant increase in loss of life and property in order to spare the lives of these thugs.

This is the on-the-ground reality of Substitute Savior Syndrome — that is, cops are now burdened twice over with acting as saviors on behalf of innocent victimized sacred oppressed PoC:
First, cops are expected to meekly lay down their own lives as a sacrifice if they are personally threatened with violence by a PoC.
Second, they are expected to serve as omniscient intermediaries in chaotic situations such as the Columbus fracas. That is, Reardon is being faulted for not having apprehended — just by being in her presence for an instant — that M. Bryant was a fun-loving, caring, good-natured, aspiring cosmetologist who merited patience and understanding, not condemnation and violent intervention, as she pulled her knife back into ideal stabbing position. He should have somehow stopped time itself so he could step in to deliver her from her perhaps misguided playfulness. All of this is neatly encapsulated in the term ‘de-escalation’, which has become shorthand for this congeries of absurd redemptive expectations.
Killing someone with a knife is hard. It takes some strength and technique, both of which I doubt Bryant possessed.
I think there's only a 5-10% chance that the other girl would have died, had she been stabbed. Bryant was enraged and probably, even at the best of times, no particularly calculating person. It's most likely that she would have missed entirely, or merely struck a glancing blow.

Exactly. That’s now the odd Tucker/Hannity dichotomy on Fox. Tucker has an almost Steve Sailerish program every night now. Brilliant. Followed immediately by a healthy heaping of Israel-first Hannity. The Murdoch’s need fo keep the remaining neocon Jews happy with the Hannity pap about Iran and Muzzies. Otherwise, they’d likely get spooked by the gentile Carlson telling too many truths.

Steve's views on race, or anyone's sensible views, are not getting anywhere near the nytimes anytime soon.Replies: @Achmed E. Newman, @Ron Unz
Guy, I see the 1st 3 excerpts the same way Mr. Sailer does. Mr. Stephens brings up 3 points that each have been the subjects of one or multiple iSteve posts.
1) Officer Reardon actually did a crack job, in those 11s of interaction, in preventing a knife murder
2) There was the sarcastic remark about the D.I.E. bit, though Mr. Stephens could not use that order, as it would be too obviously taken off of iSteve.
3) That comparison to the 1960’s and a liberal “crack up”. (I don’t personally agree we can make a comparison with the 1960’s – America is done for this time around.)
True, after that, Brett Stephens relays the usual BS about race. He definitely didn’t get his admiration of that Kendi guy from this site. That’s for damn sure!
Steve's views on race, or anyone's sensible views, are not getting anywhere near the nytimes anytime soon.Replies: @Achmed E. Newman, @Ron Unz
I tend to agree with that.
Also, don’t forget that a year or two ago, Stephens boastfully cited the classic Cochran/Harpending paper on the evolution of Ashkenazi intelligence, then fled like a scalded cat when someone noted that Prof. Henry Harpending had been denounced as a “racist” by the SPLC.
Stephens is just a pretty typical Neocon, and the ur-Neocon was Norman Podhoretz, the longtime editor of Commentary. Podhoretz’s most famous piece—published when he was still regarded as a leading leftist intellectual—was that rather candid and personal account of why he’s always hated blacks. I tend to doubt Commentary would publish it these days…
Killing someone with a knife is hard. It takes some strength and technique, both of which I doubt Bryant possessed.
I think there's only a 5-10% chance that the other girl would have died, had she been stabbed. Bryant was enraged and probably, even at the best of times, no particularly calculating person. It's most likely that she would have missed entirely, or merely struck a glancing blow.
But I'm not an expert in these things.Replies: @Art Deco, @Anonymous, @ic1000, @Buffalo Joe
pg, and in Cincinnati, a 13 year old girl kills another 13 year old girl with a slice to the neck using a pocketknife. The MSM gets to stir the pot by pointing out that knife girl didn’t stab pink girl. Don’t go there.
The mask police are usually unhealthy and often ugly people who’d like the new fashion trend to continue indefinitely so they can feel like heroes for leading the same boring lifestyles they’ve always had.
In a sane country, a real country, policemen who shoot and kill knife wielding murdering teen-aged maniacs are heroes. And Stephens knows of one such country and admires it.
I agree with your first point, #381, but, sorry, “cops” is not any kind of disparagement. It’s in common use. Do cops call themselves “police officers”? Nah, it’s just a term for the school kids to use to instill respect for Authoritah!

In some cultures cutting off girls and women’s hair is considered a humiliating punishment. Samoans living in America bring their wonderful culture of harsh, injurious physical punishment to America. One of their punishments is giving a girl a haircut like that. And making sure she doesn’t wear hats or scarves so everyone will know her shame and humiliation.

One way to deflect their assault is to simply not give a toot about being called “racist”. My now standard response to the charge is to reply, “Thanks for noticing” (not original, but I forget from whom I stole it).
You’ve been accused of being bad. Indifference and uncaringness as to being bad turn in general turn people against you.
Nothing stupid about it. It relies on fundamental notions of reciprocity, compensatory justice. Basic logic.
It is also persuasive, because it has a moral aspect to it and it is catchy.
Probably the best counter is to sidestep it and come up with your own frame. Second best counter is to dispute the premise of past discrimination. You could combine both: dispute Kendi’s accusation (second best) and go on to charge Kendi and his people as being the group that is guilty or privileged and owing in some way (first best).
Third “best” counter (but maybe worse than silence) is to concede the premise (past injustice) and whine that collective benefit and punishment is “not who we are” or is “counterproductive.”
Wait, Mr. Stevens, how can there be this liberal break up if all I hear by the Alt Right is that demographics is destiny (by 2040, more non-whites than whites in ‘Murica)? Besides, is not Jewish power in our institutions unshakeable? And I also thought liberalism remained a potent force politically and socially on American college campuses despite the resurgence of conservativism in the 1970’s and 1980’s? What gives, Mr. Stevens?
Of course, this “with-us-or-against-us politics” is also the result of Fox News and various Alt-Right sites, so to have misgivings about the right’s “cuck” narrative is to run the risk of being denounced as anti-white. In their world, the truth is NOT many-shaded and complex–just ask the acolytes of Fake News. That mantra is a great simplifier. Media bad, Alt-media good. Who cares if the end result is the dumbification of (white) Americans who protect themselves in their confirmation bias enclaves.
Not that iSteve is part and parcel to it in any way, shape, or form (rolling of eyes).

It’s the kind of hair cut a transgender activist parent gives a little girl on visiting weekend. To the outrage of custodial parent on Sunday night. Or more jobs for Family Court judges, lawyers counselors, consultants, coordinators social workers and mediators. It’s the first step in a
F to M transition. As bad as growing a boys hair long and putting on pink ribbons to match his pink ruffles dress.
Girl’s hair is too thick and curly for today’s fashions. But 35 years ago longer than shoulder length, much too thick, frizzy hair was the height of style. Check out Julie Roberts Nicole Kidman and others. A below the shoulders mass of frizz sticking 5 inches up on top 6 inches out on the sides. Like they glued a sheepskin to their head.
Most schools nowadays have a strict health code that long hair must be in braids or ponytails to prevent lice a major problem in schools.
School employees have always cut bangs that flop in the eyes for both girls and boys. They’ve always used bands and barrettes to secure girl’s unruly hair specially if other kids made fun of it. They send notes home, get a boys hair cut the other kids are making fun of him.
But this long girls hair to a boy’s cut is egregious and outrageous. Took a long time. Not cutting bangs or making a ponytail. I believe the school district is not liable because. Cutting off 10 inches of hair to give a girl a boys haircut is way way outside the scope of a librarian responsibilities and duties.
Librarian neglected duties and responsibilities to the other kids to spend all that time cutting one kids hair.

She took a swipe at the first girl but couldn’t reach down far enough because of her belly. With the second girl she squared off and was going to stick her like a pig.
I saw a black-on-black stabbing once in my life. I was driving through the ghetto on my way to the DMV when I saw a woman make a quick move with her arm and then brandish a shiny, bloody knife above her head. She had just stabbed a man in the upper back, between the spine and left shoulder blade. He started walking away with wet blood on his shirt looking very unhappy. There was a crowd, so after slowing down to rubberneck for a bit, I moved along. I called the cops a couple minutes later at the dmv. They already knew about it. I think the guy was ok, but with a stabbing you never know.
There’s no reason to believe the girl was bluffing. I’m not a cop, so I probably wouldn’t have shot the girl in that situation (not my business), but if she had a knife and was ready to strike my kid, I would have smoked her right then and there.
And that’s what you’ve got to ask yourself: if she had your kid up against a car and was ready to stab, would you have shot her or not? We pay cops to protect us all as we’d protect our own. That’s why Reardon did his job right.
BTW, if you wouldn’t shoot someone about to stab your kid, I guess that’s your business, but don’t expect the rest of us to be so cold-hearted and callous as that.
Maybe if Valerie Jarrett had been there, and responsible for the scene, she would have asked to see Makhia's birth certificate and academic records before acting.

Huh? It looks to me like the policeman’s arrival on the spot saved the first girl from a second stabbing attempt by Ma’K the Knife, who then turned away from them and charged the second girl while her father kicked the first girl in the head. Reardon somehow avoided being distracted by the peripheral vision of a large man kicking a woman in the head right next to him and stayed focused on the most lethal threat, the big knife in Ma’K’s hand.

How the presence of the officer stopped the stabbing of the first girl but not the girl in pink? Was the girl in pink so much greater enemy in Bryant’s mind than the first girl that she decided to stop stabbing of the first girl at a mere sight of the policeman and proceeded to kill the girl in pink regardless of his presence?
We’re it not for Jewish meddling, there would be no unconstitutional “hate crime” laws, far fewer emboldened opportunists of color and no third world invasion due to rewrites of immigration laws no one asked for.

It isn’t hard to kill someone with a knife, either.
No, it does not rely on reciprocity or anything else. It is utterly incoherent inasmuch as there can be no way to draw the line between the present and the future or between the past and the present. There is , effectively, no present. But the real problem for a dumbass like Kendi — which I though was too obvious to mention — is that he’s telling everyone that (a) he is discriminating against whites today and (b) whites have the right to return the favor tomorrow. He’s refuting his whole damn raison d’etre.
No, it's "anti-white discrimination now and until equity is reached". This means forever, or until distinct white people cease to exist, whichever comes first.
Ultimately, Kendi is saying that all discrimination — no matter the who/whom — is justified. That’s flagrantly at odds with his actual beliefs, yet he said it. That is really stupid.

Speaking of dangerous Karens, both WaPo & The Paper Of Record are covering the Loveland Police violent apprehension of demented, 80 pound, 73-year-old Karen Garner, nabbed whilst picking flowers on the side of a road, having absent-mindedly walked out of a Walmart with $14 worth of goods. (How did she do that?)
Now that those two have covered the story, it happened. Before, it didn’t.
Fascism is lack of restraint in the use of force. I think we all know this what would be being said by this pundit and others of his stamp if Trump had been reelected.
Apparently black girls are so lacking in female qualities that it is better to think of them as generic African Americans, and if they happen to be 16 years old well, whose counting? Go Epstein style: not by legal paperwork or forensic concepts of adulthood, and call them a “teenager”. Just another 16 year old girl shot dead by a policeman, its only unique. But Reardon reacts in a way that was unique, we know this because another cop (bald in shades) is visible as Ma’Khia comes to rest, and he clearly had not drawn his gun. He may have been further away than Reardon but not by much and he saw it all.
Ma’Khia may have been able to see the bald cop and that he hadn’t drawn; she certainly could not see Reardon, whose once repeated “Get down” did not communicate that he was about to shoot her for having a knife in a catfight. Bald in shades cop looked at Reardon with a WTF expression, and has some trouble getting him to stop pointing his gun at the cadaver that had been Ma’Khia so CPR could be tried.
She took her time deciding to do, having being in contact, certainly well within knife range for someone with her telegraph pole arms, tussling one-armed with a 20 and then 22 year old for multiple seconds (4 subtracting the second that Reardon had ahold of her knife arm at the wrist, which he managed easily because Bryant’s knife arm was being held back and stationary) .

The slo mo makes clear that at the point the above frame is from Ma’Khia brought the knife between her legs because she was deliberately avoiding cutting the fat girl. Meanwhile, Officer Reardon told her to get down (where she would get beaten by two much older women–look how close Pinkie was) twice. He’d time to warn she be shot if she didn’t lose the knife or stop. Instead he doubled down on a vague command. Anyway, you are pushing and pushing– back and back–a woman who just ran over to blindside you, and like being unable to choose which hair care products to buy for a Tick Tock, can’t make up your mind what to do; at the very instant you reach a decision … you get shot dead.

I am confident that if Reardon had not been there first, but that bald cop in sunglasses who was almost as close as Reardon to Bryant when she was shot and who saw the whole thing but did not draw his gun, then no one would have died. Any other cop but him; it is not just lack of experience, Reardon is bereft of the common sense and self control to be a police officer, as his colleagues were administering CPR, Reardon got into it with bystanders about why he shot Bryant and one of those doing the CPR told him “don’t argue with them” and Reardon shut up, but not for long. A cop is supposed to be a cut above that kind of behavior. He is an over-reactive undersized idiot.
Civilization is restraint in the use of force then, and civilization is more efficient, in the age when everything is recorded and certain groups take note that their lives are considered less important than the qualified immunity fiction that someone get any more capable than they are by donning a uniform. The alternative to restraint by police is rioting. Or

That is great thinking for police recruitment. Of late fewer capable people, the ones who could easily go into other types of employment for similar or better money, were inclined to chose the police as a career because the high regard and status in society has declined for some strange reason. Holding up Reardon as an example of exemplary police work with the promotional video of his impressive performance will really reverse that trend. Who doesn’t like the idea of killing a 16 year old girl and being a hero?
And I know you and every single one of those who comment like you do about Reardon would, were you in a nice job with the option to stick your neck out like a giraffe, actually stake your livelihood on Reardon’s good judgment and stability by going beyond cheap talk to actually hire Reardon as a police officer and sending him back out on calls with his trusty S&W 9mm and also something a little heavier (Remington shotgun) in case the next person he decides to shoot is not a 16 year old girl with her back to him.
You could even show the aftermath of the shooting in which Reardon displays his de-escalation skills by getting into an an argument, and then a shouting match with bystanders, even as his colleagues were performing CPR.
Are you not familiar with the well established moral and game theory principle known as “tit for tat” (or, an eye for an eye)?
Earlier, you wrote:
Take away “5%-10%” and “most likely,” and you are most likely correct (or there’s at least 5%-10% odds you’re right). There is some unknowable chance that Knife Girl’s attack would have been effective, and some other unknowable chance that her intended victim would have died.

The police did not release the slo mo first, it was a single carefully chosen frame which gave the impression of forward momentum, especially because it looks like Bryant’s left foot was not yet touching down. But she actually had stopped and was planted both feet flat in a wide stance if you look carefully, so Reardon had a stationary target (makes sense he’d fire then, eh?). What did did Deadeye Dick and Ma’k the Knife have in common? Neither used their right hand, the strongest one, for what they were supposed to be trying to do.
Bryant had a reach advantage and a long knife, she would have already cut the faces, lit either of those women up like a Christmas tree, gutted them like a fish or whatever other way one can put it. They did not get so much as a scratch. I think Reardon hurt his already injured wrist in the tussle, in which he did in fact grab Bryant’s right wrist. Batman didn’t have one hand on his gun when he was trying to do stuff.

If you look at how stuntmen advise on how to film a knife fight they say a rubber fake is essential because there will always be accidental touches with the stunt knife. Clearly, there is a greater probability that something like this incident could happen without an egregious performance by the officer who fired the shots, if it emerged from a background of previous incidents in which police officers attending a call witnessed a teenage girl murdering, or attempting to murder someone, which would entail the the assailant doing so in the knowledge it was right under the noses of the police.
Ought to be easy to Google up a previous occasion n which an American police officer has deliberately shot dead a teenage girl to stop her killing someone, or been criticized for failing to do so. I am increasingly confident that Reardon’s shooting of a 16 year old girl dead on the assumption she was about to kill is very far from having near precedents, and being such an extreme outlier makes the plausibility of it having stemmed from faulty decision making by Reardon rather strong. There is also the strange fact that it happened minutes after the Chauvin verdict was announced.
If you look at the old vid Surviving Edge Weapons you can see pix of actual corpses with multiple stab wounds.

So, Ma’K the Knife was, according to your theory, must have been using a rubber knife?
But what if she weren’t?
Or being very careful to keep a real one away from the thrashing antagonist and not make any stabbing motions with it.
Assume the knife is real, apply fast and dirty heuristic: a guy is probably going to use it so instantly draw and shoot him, a girl is most likely not going to so get control of the situation with forceful restraint (Reardon actually did this and grabbed Bryant’s knife arm at the wrist during the tussle over fat girl seconds before the shots). Not using both his hands was his only mistake. Lack of determination due to thinking about the Chauvin verdict perhaps?
We’re not talking about Reardon, we’re talking about you – the ninny known as “Sean” who is an expert on all things police-related. Sean who could disarm the obese knife-wielding negress in an instant, Sean who could single-handedly fix George Floyd.
Its time for you to stop commenting from the bleachers. I would like to see you join a police force and practice what you preach, instead of second-guessing people with your inane theories like “maybe it was a rubber knife”, like a woman.

Being a police officer is an order of magnitude safer than working in forestry or a fishing boat, maybe even construction. Police are well paid because they are expected to have a certain amount of wisdom plus the composure and confidence under conditions of risk to act decisively.
