It’s More Than Just Tragic’: Ma’Khia Bryant and the Burden of Black Girlhood
The fatal shooting of a 16-year-old in Columbus, Ohio, highlights the different standards that young Black girls are held to.
By Alisha Haridasani Gupta
April 24, 2021, 2:30 p.m. ET“Ma’Khia Bryant was a child.”
— Brittany Cooper, the author of “Eloquent Rage”It happened in a matter of seconds.
On Tuesday, in Columbus, Ohio, a police officer fatally shot Ma’Khia Bryant, a 16-year-old Black girl.
Body-camera footage shows Officer Nicholas Reardon, who was responding to a 911 call, arriving at a chaotic scene, with several people engaged in a heated fight, outside Ms. Bryant’s foster home.
As the officer gets out of his vehicle, Ms. Bryant is seen lunging at a woman with what appears to be a knife in her hand. Then, seconds later, in the frenzy and chaos, she lunges at another woman.
“Hey! Hey!” Officer Reardon says as he pulls out his gun. “Get down! Get down!”
He fires four quick shots, killing Ms. Bryant in an instant.
The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation is conducting a third-party investigation. And some experts, after watching the footage, have pointed out that Ms. Bryant was armed and seemed to be acting erratically, deeming the use of deadly force justifiable.
But the timing of the shooting — on the same day that the former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin was found guilty of murdering George Floyd last May — underscored, for many, the incessant drumbeat of police brutality and systemic racism.
In other words, to all you bad people who watched the video multiple times and are amazed at Officer Nick “O’Time” Reardon’s white coolness in making the right decision amidst black violent chaos, well, that’s not part of The Narrative.
Ms. Bryant’s young age — so evident in her giggly TikTok videos, dancing and doing her hair like any teenage girl — also highlights the unique burden of Black girls: In media coverage, Ms. Bryant has consistently been referred to as a woman, and her behavior and her body size have been scrutinized to suggest that she presented a large, uncontainable threat to everyone at the scene.
Actually, I think it was her 8-inch knife that attracted the most comment.
“Ma’Khia Bryant was a child,” Brittany Cooper, author of “Eloquent Rage,” said on MSNBC on Thursday. “The way that she has been talked about — because she is a big girl — people see her as the aggressor. They don’t see her humanity. They have adultified her.”
Because of layers of gendered racism, adults tend to view Black girls as more threatening, more aggressive, more mature and less innocent than white girls of the same age,
Especially when they are trying to disembowel other girls with a big knife.
robbing Black girls of the freedom to be children
In particular, the freedom to be children slashing with giant knives at other children.
, according to a 2017 report by the Georgetown Law Center on Poverty and Inequality.
The report found that Black girls as young as 5 years old are held to adultlike standards and, in turn, receive harsher punishments for their behavior: Black girls are more likely to be suspended or arrested at school than their white peers
Surely, you knew many Beckys and Karens at your suburban white bread school who lashed out with blades at the other girls? But how many white girls got in trouble each year for attempted murder?
often for minor infractions, like using their cellphones or throwing tantrums. In another report by the same researchers, one girl recalled that in elementary school, during a game at recess, she had thrown a ball and it had hit another girl in the face. She was then accused of assault and battery. Others shared that if they spoke up in class, they were labeled sassy or outspoken, while their white peers were seen as intelligent.
Though Black boys also face the same adultification bias, the experience of Black girls has been and still is largely overlooked.
To unpack these issues, In Her Words caught up with Dr. Jamilia Blake, a co-author of the Georgetown Law Center on Poverty and Inequality report and a psychology professor at Texas A&M University, and Dr. Monique Morris, executive director of Grantmakers for Girls of Color and author of the book “Pushout: The Criminalization of Black Girls in School.”
Let’s take an example of a black girl going absolutely berserk with homicidal rage and make it into yet another example of how white people, who are the only people in the world who ever do anything, misperceive blacks as tending to be more violent than, say, Brahmins.
The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.
So imagine what it was really like.
Let’s start with adultification bias. What does it mean, and how does it manifest in schools or interactions with law enforcement?
Jamilia Blake: When Black girls are not seen as children, that’s adultification bias. They’re not seen as being innocent; they’re not seen as needing nurturing; they’re seen as more adultlike, and what it is, is dehumanization. Black girls are not afforded the same freedoms that are guaranteed in childhood, like exploration, the ability to make mistakes or the benefit of the doubt. How it looks in school is this general perception of Black girls’ behavior being very volitional and menacing, and even more so if they voice their concerns and raise awareness — everything that they do is kind of seen as problematic. They are constantly monitored, they receive more severe disciplinary actions, and they aren’t even able to be sad or cry. And I don’t think many educators, law professionals, mental health professionals and individuals who interact with children are even aware of it — I don’t think they know that the adultification bias may be driving the punitiveness and the severity of their responses to Black girls.
Also, the occasional homicidal knife assaults.
Monique Morris: Adultification bias is also age compression. This is a way to erase the normal adolescent behavior and development that we have come to associate with young people, and it heightens our propensity to respond to young people as if they’re fully developed adults — referring to girls as women, not allowing them to make mistakes, even how we define their responses to conditions. So when there are things that negatively impact them and they speak up against it, we as adults associate this Black girl behavior with some of the same tropes and stereotypes that have plagued Black womanhood for centuries. Their way of responding and defending themselves is read to be combative, and their way of challenging structures of oppression are deemed to be aggressive. That leaves very little opportunity for us to really think about the prevalence of trauma in their lives.
Right, and the very harmful “angry Black woman” trope is always in the wings …
MM: Exactly. And sometimes people think about the emotions as mutually exclusive — like you can’t express anger and also be victimized by systems of oppression.
Clearly, what Ma’Khia needed was to express her emotions even more. Don’t just try to murder girls with a knife when an axe would let you express your feelings more fully.
We have to really think about the host of environmental conditions as part of the tapestry shaping their life outcomes — to strip them of this context facilitates the adultification bias and, in many ways, reduces the institutional capacity to be responsive.
JB: Right, exactly. The ability to express a range of emotions, whether that’s in response to oppressive conditions or not, is a function of being human. So what is happening to Black girls and children is that we’re robbing them of the essential aspects of what it means to be a human being.
What were your thoughts when you watched the body-camera footage?
JB: For me as a mother — I have a 16-year-old — whenever videos of these incidents come out, I wait a significant amount of time to watch it because I don’t want to see the loss of life of another young Black person for something senseless. It really tears away at your soul. At any given time, that could have been me; that could have been my daughter, my niece or any of the girls that I work with. So when I did see the video, I saw someone who just reacted and didn’t take a lay of the land in terms of what was happening, didn’t ask questions, didn’t try to interrupt the fight.
She’s talking about Officer Reardon.
MM: You’re not alone — I took my time to watch it, too, and originally I was not going to watch the video. We have seen so many cases, and it’s retraumatizing to watch this footage over and over. I also have a teenage daughter, a 17-year-old, who has had a pretty strong reaction to the way the media has covered this shooting — showing, for example, snippets and clips from the footage without issuing trigger warnings. This routine display of violence, in this way, also contributes to that dehumanization and adultification of our young people as they have to absorb all of this and also function as if everything is normal.
All the foster care professionals and others who work with girls who I’ve spoken to have said that they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone.
I’ve done that, many times. Who hasn’t disarmed a homicidal girl with a melee weapon?

As with fields such as engineering, contract computer programming, convenience stores in small-town America and so on previously, South Asians are pretty good at spotting the next trending prestige career opportunity for themselves.
Ms. Gupta is one of several South Asian women who’ve opined or reported on race relations in America, I’ve noticed, over the last few years, despite having no actual dog in that hunt, personally speaking.

- That's who.
Ugh. Officer Reardon, please just shoot me now. I can’t stand this anymore.
The New York Times is a criminal organization.
Every article by an Indian journalist should come with a ‘transparency statement’ disclosing the full extent to which they and their families have benefited from the caste system.
Also, this: “All the foster care professionals and others who work with girls who I’ve spoken to have said that they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone.”
Can someone please provide videos of this happening. In the Insta-TT era, there must be at least one, right?

One way to think about a “child” (probably the default way most people have thought about it historically) is someone who is not grown enough to be a threat in melee combat.
If he had tried to “de-escelate” the situation and the girl in pink was gutted, Reardon would be accused of not doing enough to protect black bodies.
At this point the only winning move for a white cop is to not play the game.
Facts be damned. Zombie wokesters never stop.
we’ve moved past he dindu nuffin to knife fights aren’t a big deal.
The CIA-media is going to beat up white America with black-guilt until white America gets with the invade-the-world program. Im not kidding. Do what we want our we will use race to beat you into submission. They are flexing their media muscle, letting you know they can gin up hysteria over anything at any time……..so get with the Ukraine, Iran, South China Sea, Vaccine program or you will be punished with riots.
The idiot commentators are only spouting what executive producers and directors yell at them to say in meetings. Zucker at CNN has been recorded in meetings with the on-air talent doing just this………and who is above Zucker, telling him what to push that we dont get to see? Eho is hos handler? Sticks, carrots, and Skinner
If it wasn’t a Black writing this they would be completely mocked and laughed at…truly, imagine a White person writing something like this and the ridicule they would receive — instead we’re suppose to treat this seriously, as something a moron didn’t write — for one reason only….
Did you look at the author's name?
Toldya.
I wish it were otherwise, but it ain’t.
Anti-whiteness is the whole of the law now. The rest is commentary.
The root of all the evil here is minoritarianism: Evil white flyover gentile oppressors must be crushed; immigrated and integrated and beaten and taxed and stolen from until they can't hurt us poor oppressed minorities no more. Same shit we've got for 50+ now.
But there does seem to be a particular--turbo charging--element here, female emotionalism:Hey the contemporary world is pissing me off as well. And with much more reason--something really has been stolen from me. (Blacks keep getting more and more stuff ... just never enough.)
But while the whole thing pisses me off, i do not have some sort of little soul tearing moment at:
-- every phony hate crime,
-- another Stalinist show trial verdict,
-- the latest Hollyweird anti-white propaganda piece,
-- another academia Maoist outrage
-- the latest Bret Stephens'--or other media Jew's--piece pissing on white working and middle class people and gloating about their replacement
-- more anti-white nonsense from Biden or Pelosi or Chucky Schumer
...
Yeah, i hate these people with ever fiber of my being and badly, badly, badly want to get myself and my family out from under--and as far away--from them as i can; back to some sort of "America".
But i'm not turning each incident into my own personal soul tearing drama.
A lot of women just don't seem to be designed for hearing about "the world". Those intense emotional reactions are there for ... your stuff. What you actually see. Your family.
OT?
I, a white man, have spent most of my weekend arguing with my spouse, a white female, about whether our 15 yo white child should take a high status (for a kid) VERY part time job (10 or so hours a week).
I think its a bad idea, my wife, who is I think a little star struck by the “status” of the job (which is localized to a discrete community) thinks its a big positive step forward for our kid.
Regardless of the situation, my overall point is, these are the concerns white people have for their children vs other communities in the US.
Anyway, I feel like we are
“robbing [my white kid’s] of the freedom to be children”
By making them getting a high status summer job at age 15. White man’s burden.
I am having difficulty imagining any high status job that could be performed by a 15-year-old, much less one that is only 10 hours/week. Can you elaborate while preserving anonymity?Replies: @PiltdownMan
It takes an incredible amount of shamelessness to create this sort of strawman version of what happened in Columbus, but NYTimes writers have done it once again. Reardon literally had no chance to talk Bryant out of attacking the girl in pink- it was literally shoot Bryant or allow Bryant to finish whatever it was she was doing with that knife in that instant. And, even worse- we all know what the narrative would have been had Reardon not acted and Bryant killed or severely injured the girl in pink- the narrative would have blamed Reardon for that, too.
But, I guess according to the NYTimes, Reardon probably should have asked the bystanders the girl’s name, looked up her TikTok videos so that he would have known she was “young”. I saw and knew exactly what Reardon did when he pulled up on the scene- I would have put Bryant’s age between 14 and 30, but in the heat of the moment, I would not have even given a sh*t what her age was- the only facts that matter in that instant was the knife and the girl Bryant was about to stab. Talk about arm-chair quaterbacking on a Monday morning.
Within the week, the girl in pink will give a news conference with Benjamin Crump in which she will say she wasn’t worried about getting stabbed, that she and Bryant were very good friends, and will probably say that she didn’t see a knife.
The reporter on that story, Alisha Haridasani Gupta, is billed as a “gender reporter.”

So black children are like little adults. And black adults are mostly like overgrown children. That’s what I got out of this discussion.
“ the different standards that young Black girls are held to”
I’m trying to remember: did I ever discuss stabbing or other knife use with my daughter? Is that supposed to be part of “The Talk”?
“ the incessant drumbeat of police brutality and systemic racism.”
I thought that was just the car next to me at the light; I couldn’t believe the bass.
“ adults tend to view Black girls as more threatening, more aggressive, more mature and less innocent than white girls”
Is that why big corporations hire all the black females they can find?
“ they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone.”
Besides, can’t you just shoot them in the leg or something? Black cops in the movies can do it.
That's what I want to be when I grow up.
Here’s my favorite paragraph:
What?
What does anything have to do with anything in that paragraph? Who is beating the drum, by the way? Where is the “police brutality” and “systemic racism.” Those are narratives, buddy, not truths. This is an alternate universe where nothing has to make sense and the New York Times makes the truth. Ergo, Officer Reardon = Officer Chauvin = killer.
Fuck this shit.
And the readers eat it all up. To hell with them. And they are, you know, edumacated, mostly professional. Who else reads the God damned New York Times? And they believe this shit. They have to be the stupidest people in America. What a joke.
They are not just "the stupidest people in America" They are the stupidest people on Earth.
“All the foster care professionals and others who work with girls who I’ve spoken to have said that they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone.”
Officer Reardon yelled “Hey Hey.” Too generic. And without the F word, an utterance might not even get heard. So what’s the secret sauce? …and its gotta work real fast. Hey Hey seems wrong. Might as well be Latin. Suggestions for a Reardon who only has seconds:
1. LeBron! LeBron! LeBron say dropit, and you F… duh Cop-it!
2. Drop-da-knife cash is in my car! New F..ing City program – drop-knife cash!
But seriously…what’s the fast secret sauce that’s better than Hey Hey? What would a black cop say?
Would simply having been a black officer suffice?.
Sounds like the school equivalent of broken windows policing, which dramatically reduced crime.
It’s disorienting to live in a culture that’s so prosperous, the elite have the mental energy (such as it is) and leisure to indulge in these increasingly bizarre, often delusional causes. Talk about privilege.
It goes without saying that our competitors welcome and exploit the current madness. We make it so easy for them. Our universities educate and employ them; our corporations employ them. The most difficult task our rivals have these days is not determining what our weaknesses are, but rather how to most effectively exploit them.
Anyone notice the size of MaKilla?
She wasn’t just fat. She was BIG.
She could certainly beat the holy crap out of Ms. Cooper without any problem.
I think the NYT should update their shitty style book by, as a rule, opting to refrain from referring to anyone as a “child” past puberty.
In MaKilla’s case, “teen hulk” would be an accurate descriptive.

It’s amazing how unclear people are to the meanings of ordinary words.
“And some experts, after watching the footage, have pointed out that Ms. Bryant was armed and seemed to be acting erratically”
She wasn’t acting ‘erratically’. She was quite single minded and purposive in her actions. She went with a knife at first at one woman (girl?); and when that was blunted, she turned and attempted to stab, in a very non-erratic fashion, pink woman (girl).
Forget that the ‘gender reporter’ for The NY Times can’t possibly be expected to have a clear grasp of ordinary English, but don’t they have proof readers anymore?
they’ll let knife girl go when the next video of a police shooting comes up, which should be in about 2 weeks.
this is a new permanent media cycle in America, unless something is done to stop it. it is a highly effective way to attack the country, law enforcement, generate riots, and spread CRT concepts. they’ll never stop by themselves.
I am starting to think there is more to this media psyop than meets the eye. Yes, they want White people to deporioritize themselves, that’s obvious and even admitted. They want blacks to target Whites as victims- also seems obvious. But I wonder if all this murder porn of black people reaching supersaturation on the flickering screens is to get black people to actually mourn the death of other black people.
Just trying to figure out the ruling block’s motives. I mean, black dysfunction is an obvious problem, especially the high murder rates. Yes, I think the masters like the ability to turn Cat 5 Chimpouts on and off like a spigot. But in the long run, something will have to be done about the chaos and the killing.
Think of it like the 70 years of Holocaust saturation. Decade after decade of melodrama on screen, stage and print said, “This is very important to your life.” Americans who didn’t cry at their own parents’ funerals start blubbering at mention of Schindler’s List. That is the power of media.
From a psychological perspective, it makes sense to only use black deaths caused by White people (a tiny minority of black cause of death.) Getting all weepy over black on black crime just causes a potential black criminal to have his defenses up. But the blood libel against Whites might have equal proposed benefit for the blacks who actually begin to mourn a fellow black stranger, and thus prevent a future murder?
I highly doubt it will work. But never underestimate the hubris of our rulers.
If this is normal adolescent behavior, wouldn’t any civilized society seek to erase it? Unless the young person is Wolfgang Puck, but then confine him to the kitchen, and his targets to game birds.

Here’s the report:

https://www.law.georgetown.edu/news/black-girls-viewed-as-less-innocent-than-white-girls-georgetown-law-research-finds-2/
Here are some findings from the report:
Numbers 2 through 5 are restatements of the same thing, and are fuzzy qualitative opinions, so let’s skip those.
Numbers 1 and 6 simply express the fact that blacks mature faster than whites or Asians, including but not limited to physical size. This is not controversial among researchers. These findings are based on measuring stuff scientifically.
Numbers 7 and 8 seem to be about black girls maturing faster specifically in the area of sex, which again is not controversial. Menarche is 9 to 12 months earlier than white girls (up to two years earlier than Asian girls), first sexual experience a year earlier, and first pregnancy a year earlier. This is true in the U.S., in the Carribean, in black-governed countries in Africa as well as Haiti, and in urban and rural settings. It’s a well-established finding.
Anyway, the whole reason that this topic of “black girls are unfairly felt to be adultish” is a thing these days is that it’s considered an effective new tactic to use against the problem that black girl students are disciplined more, suspended more, referred to the police more, charged more frequently with a crime, less likely to have their criminal charges dismissed or pled down, and so on.
All this is because everyone sees black girls as adults. It has nothing to do with their behavior. The only explanation to differential treatment is that the racist whitey hegemonic patriarchy of white supremacy is out to destroy our beautiful, knife-wielding, TikTokCute black girly-girls.
What adults think is not the relevant category. It would be an unusual school or school district that didn't know the age and grade of the student when discipline was imposed.Why? School discipline would be based on conduct and behavior. More often? Frequency of conduct and behavior would be the first clue.

True, but it’s mostly their small children. Call it delayed abortion and black women’s homicide rates fall.
Why mostly small children? Because the little ones are smaller and more fragile.
I have a bone to pick: You keep referring to “a big knife,” or “an eight-inch knife,” or “a homicidal knife;” whereas The New York Times Style Manual clearly indicates that the correct expression should be, “what appeared to be a big knife,” or “what appeared to be homicidal knife,” etc.
In fact, your account would have been much clearer had you written something like “911 received a call about what appeared to be a girl brandishing what appeared to be knife in what appeared to be an attack against what appeared to be another girl pinned against what appeared to be a car.”
On an unrelated note, Ms. Gupta writes, “The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation is conducting a third-party investigation.” For the purposes of brevity, no doubt, she appears to have omitted the fact that in Ohio this is standard procedure in all police-related shootings.
The New York Times appears to have outdone itself.

Eight inches? Looked like less than six to me.
If newspapers are gunning for the stabber, they'll add the handle length to the blade length, so a 4 inch blade becomes a 9 inch knife.
In this case, the blade appears to be 8 inches at least, so if the NYT was trying to hang Knife Girl, they'd be calling it a 13 inch knife.
Just my opinion, no experience, a 2 or 3 inch blade on a normal size handle would be much easier to control and probably deadlier, if that was the user's intent.

I think its a bad idea, my wife, who is I think a little star struck by the "status" of the job (which is localized to a discrete community) thinks its a big positive step forward for our kid.
Regardless of the situation, my overall point is, these are the concerns white people have for their children vs other communities in the US.
Anyway, I feel like we are
"robbing [my white kid's] of the freedom to be children"
By making them getting a high status summer job at age 15. White man's burden.Replies: @Anonymous, @AndrewR, @ScarletNumber
High status in whose eyes? Her peers? Future employers? College admissions? Why does this matter?
I am having difficulty imagining any high status job that could be performed by a 15-year-old, much less one that is only 10 hours/week. Can you elaborate while preserving anonymity?

Steve, your description of KKKrazy Glue as the binding agent of the Democratic / Elite coalition was insightful, but you did not grasp the full implications.
1. It can’t be turned off. Ever. First, the coalition hate hate hates each other: Jews, Blacks, Asians, Indians, AWFLs (box wine aunts) etc. The only thing holding that up is hate of White men and Whites in general and it requires ever more KKKrazy Glue to keep them together. Second, the hate is a drug, a hit, and the need for ever more of it particularly in blacks, White women, and Indians is apparent. [Interestingly the decision of the Obama Media to label Zimmerman “White Hispanic” seems to have convinced Latinos they are the other White meat on the menu]. Third, the elite running the nation really hate White people and ordinary White men with a passion, this is not “the Joooosssss! what was the question” but the organic hate for creating and maintaining modern industrial society which the new hereditary elite despise due to the constant churn of elites and families that threaten their dynastic interests. Of what use a Kennedy, a Walton, a Gates if modern industrial society erodes the bootlegging fortune, makes Wal-Mart bankrupt, and Microsoft obsolete? White men are agents of change and from Buchenwald Greta to Bill the Gates himself they want to stop the world and get off. Their dynastic ambitions depend upon it. No accident that Game of Thrones and Harry Potter are their touchstones.
2. A declining economy propped up with financial tricks: running the money printer go brrr, “financial repression” (zero interest rates for savers, forcing money into speculative stocks) means competition for status, positions, and possessions makes well, a Rwandan solution to the White problem inevitable. The author of this hit piece on White men and the black women quoted will only do better if they basically kill all the White people and take their stuff and positions. This is basically their only way to better themselves and they’v figured it out.
3. Media influences them into thinking that every White person is a secret Nazi and that they will be easy to kill. Contempt for White people permeates particularly black thinking, but also that of Asians and Indians. This is particularly true of the urbanized professional class who have no idea of the scope of American geography, the hobbies and habits and beloved movies and TV shows of White people who have been quietly and instinctively “prepping” for what they only unconsciously understand will be an attempt to kill them all. Lately, the unconscious knowledge has become overt, as crimestop has failed and the euphemisms of zombies etc. has been overt statement of facts. While White men seem to view Walter White, Tony Soprano, and Tyler Durden as heroes to emulate, non Whites figure that all White dudes are easily conquered villains like those who get their butt kicked by those waify butt kicking babes. They seem to think Wakanda is real.
I think we are not years, but likely maybe only six months from full on Rwandan style violence egged on by the media and authorized by the government largely in response to another lockdown attempt. Which we all know is coming.
Fox News is reporting the Gov. Newsom of California wanted F 15Cs buzzing and possibly using other measures against crowds in Huntington Beach protesting against him. The orders were given in texts and phone calls to leave no written trace. Already the Democratic Legislature has voted to make the names and addresses of people signing the recall petition public and various groups including BLM have vowed to attack said signers in every way: get their employers to fire them, show up at their home and attack them, etc.
Black girls are more likely to be suspended or arrested at school than their white peers .. often for minor infractions, like using their cellphones
I just did a search and found out that such anti-free speech regulations are not unusual. California even has a law that allows districts to enforce such policies (“except during emergencies”).
It’s really something how kids get drafted into horrible, often physically dangerous public schools, and then are ordered to shut up when they’re inside. The districts don’t want the kids recording what goes on in their miserable classrooms (and then uploading the embarrassing video into the public domain); teachers should be required to wear body cams, anyhow.
When police get called to a school and end up arresting one of its students, the cause rarely involves (common, physical) bullying or even a (not so uncommon) loaded gun in a backpack. It happens when a kid KOs a teacher, or when a six year old boy uses his thumb and index finger to symbolize pointing a gun, i.e. terrorism.
There seems to have been remarkably little coverage of the guy who joined Knife Girl in chasing her first target, and who kicked that girl’s head as if he was making a good try at killing her. Who is he, and what did he have to do with it? What, indeed, was the whole scene about? Why isn’t the New York Times explaining that instead of publishing nonsense?

I grew up around a lot of blacks, and have seen a few fairly extreme examples of black girl-on-girl violence. One that I remember particularly vividly involved a couple of girls beating another one with a tree branch that was about as thick as a baseball bat.
Most violent episodes revolved around sexual competition. Usually the pretty one got the worst of it. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was behind the big girl going after the girl in pink with a knife.
It is indeed a major cultural difference. Nobody would have much sympathy for a big, hefty white girl physically assaulting a much prettier romantic rival. Especially not progressive, elite whites. Honestly, I don’t think black Africans would think too highly of it, either. It’s a very strange sexual inversion unique to American black culture.
If white progressive women knew what was good for them, they wouldn’t encourage this. If it’s normalized, the skinny, progressive, yoga pants ladies shopping at Whole Foods are going to be in trouble. Most of us white guys aren’t going to step in on their behalf like Nick Reardon did.
It’s kind of like the trans thing. White ladies just keep shooting themselves in the foot, and what do they do? They scream at and attack their men, because they don’t know what else to do. It’s sad.

It isn’t the women’s fault. They are born followers. It is up to men—White men—to lead. But White men have abdicated their role. They cower in fear or have sold out.
It works if you can pay her off, but that doesn't kick in until you're at the top 5% income level. Otherwise, women have to be either exceptionally wise and sensible during their reproductive years (lol), or they have to be brought up to that role.

Is there any way to determine (or guess) if Ma’Khia’s foster parents were in it for the monthly state provided stipend money? These range from $500-$1100 depending on the official rates in the state the foster home is in, for children who are not deemed to be “special needs.” For special needs kids, the rates are significantly higher.
The amounts are modest, but some people do get into fostering in the hopes of being able to skim off excess from the state subsidy funds provided for the care of a particular foster child.
The presence of so many similar age girls in one foster location makes me wonder.
Gloria Steinem infamously granted Bill Clinton the “one free grope rule” on the pages of the NYT.
Therefore it’s totally appropriate for a “one free stab rule” to be bestowed on all black teenaged girls by the same Grey Whore.

Not implausible at all. The statistics are hard to locate, but I too recall seeing them a few years ago. Men account for 7 times as many murders as women, and if you consider that blacks commit murder at a rate 7 or 8 times that of whites, it is certainly plausible that black women are committing at least as many murders per capita as are white men.
OK, let’s. “Adultify” and “adultification” [the latter almost always followed by “bias”] appear 8x in the excerpts that Mr. Sailer quotes; 10x in the original article. Almost as bad as reading one of those “misdisinformation” rants. Language frames the narrative — when they try that hard to beat you over the head with a particular neologism, it must have an important narrative purpose.
Looks like this is the main point: “It’s not necessarily either/or on the adultification bias or racialized violence, but the adultification is informed by the history of racialized violence.” So it looks as if this “adultifinicating” process is a direct cause of “racialized violence — i.e. makes Evil Whitey shoot innocent Blacks for no reason. According to this Gupta pajeet and the Sulzberger Blog, anyway.
Just one minor problem. 4th paragraph of the NYT’s screed:
Wait a minute… just how old were the females that the stabber attacked? Could there perhaps be some subcontinentally-perpetrated adultinizing going on here? Let’s see what the Daily Fail has to say:
“Ma’Khia Bryant’s foster mother has revealed the 16-year-old and two other girls had a brawl over a messy house and an unmade bed before the teen was shot dead by police.
Angela Moore said two of her former foster children came to Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday for her birthday when the argument between the youngsters broke out.”
Obvious adultifornication is obvious. Which obviously means… racialized violence! Unwarranted violent oppression of GOCs [Girls of Color] by Gupta supremacist imperialists! This Gupta is perpetrating exactly the same sort of adultificatory assault on innocent girls that she accuses others of! And her attack is even worse! Because she’s adultifinying two GOCs!
Very problematic in the current year. It’s like an double adultificide, or something.

When caregivers say they have have experience in disarming armed girls there may be some truth in what they are saying. Many years ago at a party at our flat I disarmed a 15 year old girl armed with a large kitchen knife. The girl in question had taken exception to what one of the other 15 year old girls had said to her and sought out our cutlery drawer to arm herself and seek revenge. When I confronted the armed girl I had to make a call: was she full of shit and an ineffectual knife wielder, or was she a real threat? I decided that she was full of shit and took the knife off her (and hid the cutlery drawer) without any problems. It helped that she was a small girl who didn’t look like she knew what she was doing and I knew all our knives were blunt as hell. Everyone involved was white. If she had been a 15 stone girl she may have needed a punch in the face to ensure the upper hand before being disarmed.
The point is that the NYT writer is trying to squeeze the last drops from this dish rag of a news story to support the BLM/woke narrative. This story is pretty much dead. And will be by the coming week.

The New York Times bemoans and bewails the adultification of the attempted murderer as a woman and insists she was just a child.
The intended victims were women, of course.
‘As the officer gets out of his vehicle, Ms. Bryant is seen lunging at a woman with what appears to be a knife in her hand. Then, seconds later, in the frenzy and chaos, she lunges at another woman.’
Shocking honesty from the NY Times.
I read two interesting things about this case today. One was that the mother is going to sue the foster care system; she will have the help from both a law firm and a PR firm. Interesting that she is choosing to bypass going after the cop. Of course he didn’t do anything wrong and I am glad he is going to be left alone but I wonder why her lawyers decided to bypass him.
The second thing is that she has at least one other of her four living children in foster care. The way the article was worded implied they had been in foster care for awhile. I hope it comes out why they were put into foster care. Mom has said she was trying to get them out but as the author pointed out, people with kids in foster care sometimes say that even when it isn’t true.
I would love to know if any of what the women in the NYT article claim about black girls being constantly and consistently treated badly can be backed up with studies. A lot of black kids go to school where there are few if any whites so there is no favoring whites over blacks. Do minority teachers treat them unfairly too?
To me it makes sense that kids from homes and neighborhoods where adults don’t know how to behave are disciplined more at school. The kids go to school upset and miserable a lot and then act up. Where is the surprise? I would act up too if I had parents like them. I have to wonder where black boys figure into this. They have more behavioral problems than whites too.
LOL. 16 year olds are NOT children. But in any case, they say that children shouldn’t play with knives. Although I was a cub and a boy scout and we all used knives and no one ever though of using them to stab someone else with it.
No, you have to counterattack aggressors with more lethality. “He pulls a knife, you pull a gun, he sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the Chicago way.”
Anyway, poor girl, but you have to be pretty stupid to attack someone with a knife in front of armed police.
P.S. I just watched the video for the first time and have no idea what happened. Stab girl tries to attack other girl first, an adult male kicks the head of this girl who falls to the ground, then she attacks girl in pink with a knife, with an officer pointing a gun at her telling her to stop.

I thought at the beginning of the coverage, she was referred to as a young woman over and over again. In doing this, the reporters, etc., were diligently conforming to the usage that I remember a huge uproar being made over more than forty years ago. Between about 1975-1980, there was an enormous effort made to use terms like anchorwoman, policewoman, spokeswoman, councilwoman, women’s room, women’s college. And after that, or maybe a few years later, I remember it being settled in the professional classes. So it is very ironic for me to see now “how dare you call her a young woman–she is a child!” That was the opposite of what was preferred by so many for years.

Did you even bother to watch the video? The knife-wielding beluga had a full head of steam and was about a nanosecond from plunging her shiv into pinkie’s gut. There wasn’t enough time to say anything to discourage the attack; it was either shoot and drop the assailant or not shoot and watch pinkie get the shiv in her gut. Next time, speak from a place of reality. Otherwise, step away from your keyboard and let the grownups discuss.

My point was that Steve rejected the idea of disarming a knife wielder out of hand. I am speaking from a point of reality: I have disarmed a knife wielding "girl". By the same token the father of a psychotic young woman I worked with tried to take a knife off her to stop her harming herself. He was stabbed to death. Then she stabbed everyone else in her parents house and then went next door and stabbed a neighbour and was on her way to stab more people when she was brought down by a police dog. The other stabbing victims all survived. She wasn't shot and she is currently residing in the secure wing of a mental hospital. That is the kind of experience that might prompt some people to question the outcome here. If you've seen people survive knife attacks, you've seen knife armed suspects taken down by dogs and you've seen caregivers disarm girls making dramatic gestures with knives you might question why this latest girl had to die. Such people may not be reasonable in their expectations but there is some reality behind their stance.
In these times, especially, I expect that that’s a prestigious job description in the environs such as the New York Times, with fierce competition for the slot from graduates of the various gender studies programs at our elite universities (the NYT is a very Yale-Harvard kind of place.)
Ms. Gupta’s credentials, going by her listed background online, don’t quite fit that mold—a Hong Konger of Indian descent, she has a degree from the decent, but hardly elite City University in London and a Masters in International Affairs with a focus on war and conflict.
As with fields such as engineering, contract computer programming, convenience stores in small-town America and so on previously, South Asians are pretty good at spotting the next trending prestige career opportunity for themselves.
Ms. Gupta is one of several South Asian women who’ve opined or reported on race relations in America, I’ve noticed, over the last few years, despite having no actual dog in that hunt, personally speaking. Add pot-stirring to the list of opportunities immigrants look forward to taking advantage of, when they envision themselves moving here.Replies: @Peterike, @Buzz Mohawk, @Rob McX
Mercenaries imported for the war against whites. If Reardon had let Knife-Girl kill her victim, Gupta would have a 1000-word article ready in a couple of days about how police will watch blacks being murdered while having full power to prevent it.
Also, this: "All the foster care professionals and others who work with girls who I’ve spoken to have said that they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone."
Can someone please provide videos of this happening. In the Insta-TT era, there must be at least one, right?Replies: @Polistra, @bro3886, @CCZ
Every article by an Indian “journalist” should come with a statement that they came to America to live as parasites on white culture and the white population, they sure as hell didn’t move to Ethiopia. And that they almost always burn with hatred against the native population common to racist colonialists.

Short version: White man, they hate you and want you dead.
Whites are trapped in a situation that would in other circumstances be classed as some kind of psychological torture. If they try to protect themselves from blacks, they’re doomed. If they’re charged with protecting blacks from each other, they’re damned if they do and damned if they don’t. There is no course of action they can take that will prevent people like Gupta from stoking up the hatred against them.
Until last year, there might have been some hope of resolving these problems in the existing political framework. Not any more. Short of separating themselves entirely and forming their own nations, whites can’t do anything to fix the problem.

I hear you bro, and commiserate.
It’s hell to be left behind.
It’s interesting to see that it is always the policeman who is obliged to “deescalate”, never the neighbours or else. In this case, there were a lot people around (mostly Black, it seems). Obviously they did not deescalate, most of them did not even try. Probably someone tried to deescalate, failed and then called the police.
Cormac McCarthy pretty much nailed the whole situation:
“It takes very little to govern good people. Very little.
And bad people cant be governed at all. Or if they could, I never heard of it.”

I recall once approaching a friend's house and cutting across his lawn. My Border Collie literally turned and gave me "the look" as she followed the sidewalk up to his front door as if to say, "What in the hell do you think you're doing?"Replies: @David In TN
That’s what I’ve distilled years of reading and commenting here down to. The other side of the “adultificatioin” coin is the “infantilization” of all minorities.
Now that women and womanly men run our society and report our news, every minority person is to be regarded and treated as an infant in day care.
There it is distilled down to one sentence.
Straight White men are abhorrent because they don’t bring the needed sensitivity and tenderness to bear upon the problems faced by these helpless infants. Instead they bring the Reality Principles of autonomy, objectivity, responsibility and competence i.e. “adultification” to the table. These are poisons to the fantasy world created and sustained by the women who run the daycare agency that our society has become.
Gay men are okay both because they are fellow “victims” and because they are especially sensitive, non-judgmental and nurturing (supposedly). Gay men are non-threatening. (Most women have no clue as to the brutal nature of gay sex nor to the predatory behavior of gay men towards random men they encounter when on the prowl.)
As in olden days, women’s input should largely be restricted to educating children from the forth grade down. There are some exceptions and we should allow for this, but in the main, women have no interest in adopting a neutral, objective perspective. They should be tested and if they show no capacity for such thinking, then, fine, let them run the daycares and educate infants. Affirmative action is responsible for this mess. Standardized testing would quickly sort it out. Juries too should be selected by testing.
I’m trying to remember: did I ever discuss stabbing or other knife use with my daughter? Is that supposed to be part of “The Talk”?
“ the incessant drumbeat of police brutality and systemic racism.”
I thought that was just the car next to me at the light; I couldn’t believe the bass.
“ adults tend to view Black girls as more threatening, more aggressive, more mature and less innocent than white girls”
Is that why big corporations hire all the black females they can find?
“ they, as non-police officers, have been able to disarm girls with a knife engaged in a fight without shooting someone.”
Besides, can’t you just shoot them in the leg or something? Black cops in the movies can do it.

It turns out that investigative journalism is alive and well, even if it’s a job that the NYT’s Brahmin import gendered-racism reporter won’t do. Instead, Sailer helpfully points to a blog post by “Turtleboy”, who delved into social media and (of course) local court records to provide the context for Knife Girl’s Fifteen Minutes (15 seconds?) of Fame.
Context that — somehow! — Lester Holt and the rest of the Prestige Media have completely missed.

This is really incredible if true. It will have a complete chilling effect on future defense experts whose views may be generally accepted by the scientific community but don’t fit the political narrative.
Also, the NYP article misstates Fowler’s opinions. It mentions the carbon monoxide and Floyd’s bad heart, but leaves out the fentanyl/meth combo (Speedball) Floyd had just taken. Baker, the Minneapolis ME(who also testified), said the drug combo alone would be enough to kill Floyd. Baker admitted he’s listed Fentanyl as the COD on hundreds of death certificates with the same or much less of it in the toxicology reports.
TBH I don’t think the cop did anything wrong, perhaps he could have checked the heartbeat of George Floyd, but it’s questionable if his life could have been saved. It’s certainly not like he deserves to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
I believe I saw it on one of audacious epigones articles. I’m sure it’s suppressed by google and I don’t have all day to look, but definetly out there somewhere
One indirect factor to observe is how much conditioning the NYT readership needs to accept The Narrative.
The headline says it all. The NYT readership cares more about this troubled girl than all of us sh*tbirds” in awe of this police officer.
You know, it wasn’t that long ago that the NYT would have written a sensible 10,000 article detailing how the system (e.g. Social Services; Foster Care) had failed this girl.
No, we’ve evolved beyond those terrible, awful traditional notions of “adultification.” Like a child having to leave school to provide for his family, or missing out on rites of passage because of, say, needing to care for a sick parent.
Perhaps we need public service announcements, including most especially on TikTok, informing one and all that a condition precedent of “freedom,” however defined, is learning to keep you hands to yourself.
No self-respecting teenager wants to be treated like a child. Except insofar as having access to the food growing in the refrigerator and such.
Most violent episodes revolved around sexual competition. Usually the pretty one got the worst of it. I wouldn't be surprised if this was behind the big girl going after the girl in pink with a knife.
It is indeed a major cultural difference. Nobody would have much sympathy for a big, hefty white girl physically assaulting a much prettier romantic rival. Especially not progressive, elite whites. Honestly, I don't think black Africans would think too highly of it, either. It's a very strange sexual inversion unique to American black culture.
If white progressive women knew what was good for them, they wouldn't encourage this. If it's normalized, the skinny, progressive, yoga pants ladies shopping at Whole Foods are going to be in trouble. Most of us white guys aren't going to step in on their behalf like Nick Reardon did.

It works if you can pay her off, but that doesn't kick in until you're at the top 5% income level. Otherwise, women have to be either exceptionally wise and sensible during their reproductive years (lol), or they have to be brought up to that role. Both together are as rare as young men who are top 5% earners, and most probably go to those men anyway (assortative mating).
Where does that leave the rest of us?
We don't really live in a civilized society anymore. Our relationships with the opposite sex resemble those of the barbaric Vikings and Iroquois more than they do Victorian Anglos. Might as well accept that fact and deal with it instead of giving men bad advice like "she just wants you to be a leader."

Regardless of the situation, my overall point is, these are the concerns white people have for their children vs other communities in the US.

Infantalizing your daughter isn’t doing her any favors. What else would she be doing with that “freedom”? Using TikTok?
But, I guess according to the NYTimes, Reardon probably should have asked the bystanders the girl's name, looked up her TikTok videos so that he would have known she was "young". I saw and knew exactly what Reardon did when he pulled up on the scene- I would have put Bryant's age between 14 and 30, but in the heat of the moment, I would not have even given a sh*t what her age was- the only facts that matter in that instant was the knife and the girl Bryant was about to stab.

Good people are like Border Collies, biddable. Once they get the general principle, Border Collies only need to be given an indication.

10 hours a week during the summer isn’t depriving anyone of anything, especially a 15 y/o, unless your family is so rich that it would impede on planned trips. She should be able to work 20 without breaking a sweat.
“Caregivers” probably do have experiences to share about all sorts of crazy things. But what is the relevance of that when analyzing the “reasonably prudent police officer”?
The point is that the NYT writer is trying to squeeze the last drops from this dish rag of a news story to support the BLM/woke narrative. This story is pretty much dead. And will be by the coming week.
When I first read this, I read it this way:
Who do they kill?
She was also, early in her career, the original plain-Jane girlfriend in the live TV broadcast of Paddy Chayefsky’s Marty in 1953, opposite Rod Steiger as Marty. This was two years before the movie. Well worth seeking out–in some ways it’s better than the film (which is also quite good).
One would have thought that Idi Amin, Kenyatta and the revolt in Zanzibar would have taught Indians a thing or two ….
"The only thing we learn from history is that history is boring stuff that's hard to learn".
In Officer Reardon’s “white coolness in making the right decision,” he was channeling Alvin C. York and Audie Murphy.
Way back 30 odd years ago, in my high school of 600 students we only had about 5 black girls in the student body. Two were fairly “White” coming from intact families, their fathers were professionals. The two made good grades and dressed “white”. Two of the others were “ghetto”. I only remember one girl fight happening in my four years of high school. Of course it was the two ghetto black girls fighting over the affections of one of the three black guys at the school. It lasted five minutes and ranged from one end of the hallway to the other. One was short and fat, she straightened her hair. The other was about a foot taller and had a small afro. The short one started pulling hair and there were clumps of afro along the entire length of the hall.
It’s obvious that all the fuzzy rationalizations are a means of trying to find some charge that will stick on officer Reardon. They want to charge him with murder but the optics are too blatant that the shooting was justified. So, they’ll toss meaningful but pithy-sounding generalizations around for a few weeks, or until the next shooting of a black man resisting arrest. Now, imagine if he had shot a black girl attacking a white girl instead of a black girl attacking a black girl. The riots would begin immediately, and there would be no worry that the story would gain traction. Hannity, in covering the incident, took special care to emphasize with every sentence “He saved a black girl.” Heaven forbid someone saves a white girl.
To the extent most black people (including Cooper) are mentally children, she’s not wrong. There’s a reason that, until like 60 years ago, no one really believed that blacks and whites could ever live as equals.
This melancholy Sunday morning, just 3 days after her tragic death, there is
comfort and consolation for all of us in knowing that Ma’Khia is now seated
at the right hand of George Floyd.
They do everything possible in their living patterns to avoid “a person like the young women who got shot.”
Not just minorities
Perhaps the officer responding should have tried to contact Dr. Jane Goodall for assistance…….
Most would feel confident of their ability to do so by shooting her in the back from a couple of yards away although not with the textbook stance and good trigger control of Quadruple Tap Reardon, but to answer your question, my feeling would be apparently homicidal persons threateningly advancing on others have had knives taken off them a lot especially if they are females. I would point out that Pinkie who certainly knew that Bryant had a knife rushed to blindside Bryant.
Had there ever been a 16 years’ old girl deliberately shot dead by a police officer in the US before Bryant? The following is a statistical plausibility argument that may require a little more than the usual attention. What are the odds that this historical outlier or standing alone in a subclass of one occurrence having happened in a year when police shootings have been extremely low in number would be a perfect one that shines like a diamond?
I would note that Reardon said immediately before opening fire “Hey! Hey! Get Down, Get Down”, and immediately afterwards his explanation was “She had a knife”. He was within his rights, but it was a safe-from-his-point-of-view solution rather than anything admirable.
Then we could take those people to a pistol range, set up a simplified version of the situation and have them actually try, while on video. The results would be edifying.
Or even just set up a FATS simulator.

Looks like this is the main point: "It’s not necessarily either/or on the adultification bias or racialized violence, but the adultification is informed by the history of racialized violence." So it looks as if this "adultifinicating" process is a direct cause of "racialized violence -- i.e. makes Evil Whitey shoot innocent Blacks for no reason. According to this Gupta pajeet and the Sulzberger Blog, anyway.
Just one minor problem. 4th paragraph of the NYT's screed:Wait a minute... just how old were the females that the stabber attacked? Could there perhaps be some subcontinentally-perpetrated adultinizing going on here? Let's see what the Daily Fail has to say:
"Ma'Khia Bryant's foster mother has revealed the 16-year-old and two other girls had a brawl over a messy house and an unmade bed before the teen was shot dead by police.
Angela Moore said two of her former foster children came to Columbus, Ohio, on Tuesday for her birthday when the argument between the youngsters broke out."
Obvious adultifornication is obvious. Which obviously means... racialized violence! Unwarranted violent oppression of GOCs [Girls of Color] by Gupta supremacist imperialists! This Gupta is perpetrating exactly the same sort of adultificatory assault on innocent girls that she accuses others of! And her attack is even worse! Because she's adultifinying two GOCs!

Very true, only it’s been that way for more than 50 years now. Whites are now–finally– confronting this (or, more accurately are being forced to confront this). I think video and the Internet have contributed to this, in a good way, as has the yuuuge decline that America has had in the past 50 years, due largely to these same people. We’re close to endgame kicking off. Whether we stay stalled for a while is the question, but we’re on the 5 yard line.
In other words, adults are treating/responding to black girls based on conduct, behavior, appearance (seem older), not based on precise chronological age.
What adults think is not the relevant category. It would be an unusual school or school district that didn’t know the age and grade of the student when discipline was imposed.
Why? School discipline would be based on conduct and behavior. More often? Frequency of conduct and behavior would be the first clue.

I just did a search and found out that such anti-free speech regulations are not unusual. California even has a law that allows districts to enforce such policies (“except during emergencies”).
It’s really something how kids get drafted into horrible, often physically dangerous public schools, and then are ordered to shut up when they’re inside. The districts don’t want the kids recording what goes on in their miserable classrooms (and then uploading the embarrassing video into the public domain); teachers should be required to wear body cams, anyhow.
When police get called to a school and end up arresting one of its students, the cause rarely involves (common, physical) bullying or even a (not so uncommon) loaded gun in a backpack. It happens when a kid KOs a teacher, or when a six year old boy uses his thumb and index finger to symbolize pointing a gun, i.e. terrorism.Replies: @unit472
School buses are required to have video cams on them so, on occasion we get to see fights and bullying taking place. Why what goes on in public schools is hidden is something of a mystery. You’d think parents would want to see the evidence if their child is suspended or claims to been assaulted or bullied. Obviously school administrators would prefer to not have the public see how horribly run these institutions are but it would be real eye opener if people could see what they are getting for their tax dollars.
Having come out of the house knife in hand, had she killed Pinky, it would have been murder in the first degree. Reardon didn’t stop manslaughter; he stopped first degree murder.

Sorry, res, you are in the wrong. For her NYT article, Ms. Gupta (she/her) deposed Monique W. Morris Ed.D., who stated:
Doctor Professor Morris is not some random with an opinion, she is an established authority on the issues of foster care professionals’ core competencies in disarming girls in the midst of a knife fight.
To drive home that point, after “MORE” I have listed the education and employment history that Doctor Professor Morris posts on LinkedIn. You can see that every one of her dozen experiences since college is directly relevant to how the Knife Girl encounter should have been managed. She is the exact opposite of an Ivory Tower grifter and know-it-all.
Ms. Gupta’s interview of Doctor Professor Morris effectively skewers Officer Reardon by highlighting his failures. Before going to press should, Ms. Gupta or her editors have briefly wondered whether Doctor Professor Morris knows what she’s talking about? Obviously not!

Agree.
The root of all the evil here is minoritarianism: Evil white flyover gentile oppressors must be crushed; immigrated and integrated and beaten and taxed and stolen from until they can’t hurt us poor oppressed minorities no more. Same shit we’ve got for 50+ now.
But there does seem to be a particular–turbo charging–element here, female emotionalism:
Hey the contemporary world is pissing me off as well. And with much more reason–something really has been stolen from me. (Blacks keep getting more and more stuff … just never enough.)
But while the whole thing pisses me off, i do not have some sort of little soul tearing moment at:
— every phony hate crime,
— another Stalinist show trial verdict,
— the latest Hollyweird anti-white propaganda piece,
— another academia Maoist outrage
— the latest Bret Stephens’–or other media Jew’s–piece pissing on white working and middle class people and gloating about their replacement
— more anti-white nonsense from Biden or Pelosi or Chucky Schumer
…
Yeah, i hate these people with ever fiber of my being and badly, badly, badly want to get myself and my family out from under–and as far away–from them as i can; back to some sort of “America”.
But i’m not turning each incident into my own personal soul tearing drama.
A lot of women just don’t seem to be designed for hearing about “the world”. Those intense emotional reactions are there for … your stuff. What you actually see. Your family.

So by that logic, CNN believes it will be a sign of progress if we see cops kill with more hate in their eyes…
Yeah, no kidding. Screaming “I’m gonna stab the fuck out of you, bitch!” immediately prior to the attack sounds a little more like murderous intent that mere hysteria/ posturing, too.
I mean, look at that — she’s stepping into it with a big windup, hand low, ready to pivot her upper body into the strike and rip upward.

Wow! She’s put in a lot of hours training. Can’t wait to see her in the Octagon.
Sadly, Ms. (“Professor Crunk”) Cooper’s “childishness” is partially underwritten by New Jersey taxpayers, as she is a $112,000 a year Associate Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies and Africana Studies at Rutgers University. She also writes “a top race blog” as voted by “The Root – The Blacker the Content the Sweeter the Truth.”

Then we could take those people to a pistol range, set up a simplified version of the situation and have them actually try, while on video. The results would be edifying.
Or even just set up a FATS simulator.
my feeling would be apparently homicidal persons threateningly advancing on others have had knives taken off them a lot especially if they are females.
Your feeling would be non-relevant, since you have no evidence to offer.

Right. There is literally nothing in the professional experience of Doctor (Adjunct) Professor Monique W. Morris Ed.D. to suggest that she knows more about de-escalating girlish knife fights than does any other fan of Law & Order. Reporterette Gupta could have gotten better insights, had she dropped by ‘Cheers’ during Happy Hour to interview Norm.*
Yet her editor at the New York Times gave a green light to this rubbish. The publisher published it.

The kicker is the dead girl’s father. She had called him because of the arguement with the two other girls. The two girls were former foster children who came by to celebrate the foster mother’s birthday.
But, I guess according to the NYTimes, Reardon probably should have asked the bystanders the girl's name, looked up her TikTok videos so that he would have known she was "young". I saw and knew exactly what Reardon did when he pulled up on the scene- I would have put Bryant's age between 14 and 30, but in the heat of the moment, I would not have even given a sh*t what her age was- the only facts that matter in that instant was the knife and the girl Bryant was about to stab. Talk about arm-chair quaterbacking on a Monday morning.Replies: @AndrewR, @Sick 'n Tired
It is really no different than dealing with child soldiers in African countries, yes they are 10 years old, but they won’t hesitate to mow you down with an AK-47, or hack you up with a machete if they are told to. And what is your only recourse in that moment, but to kill a child who’s intent is ending your life. Quite a conundrum.

As a New Jersey resident, I must report another egregious story from Rutgers’ Camden campus:
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/04/rutgers-students-now-receive-trigger-warnings-greek-roman-literature-history/
This guy appears to be from Australia. However, I particularly loved the response this crap elicited from a student. Read the story to see what this student said.
I used to work on this campus in the law school library. Wow.
I did watch the video. I think the police officer made the right call in this situation.
My point was that Steve rejected the idea of disarming a knife wielder out of hand. I am speaking from a point of reality: I have disarmed a knife wielding “girl”. By the same token the father of a psychotic young woman I worked with tried to take a knife off her to stop her harming herself. He was stabbed to death. Then she stabbed everyone else in her parents house and then went next door and stabbed a neighbour and was on her way to stab more people when she was brought down by a police dog. The other stabbing victims all survived. She wasn’t shot and she is currently residing in the secure wing of a mental hospital. That is the kind of experience that might prompt some people to question the outcome here. If you’ve seen people survive knife attacks, you’ve seen knife armed suspects taken down by dogs and you’ve seen caregivers disarm girls making dramatic gestures with knives you might question why this latest girl had to die. Such people may not be reasonable in their expectations but there is some reality behind their stance.
Her beat as a NYT “gender reporter” seems to consist of documenting all the ways women are supposedly “oppressed” and how to pass government laws to help them, along with as many minorities as she can gather up, as a newly minted corporal in the Woke army. I wonder if her hard-working dad in Hong Kong is as revolted as we are at the life she has chosen.

You can see the distance that police know can be covered almost instantaneously by a rush. And looking at the neighbor video. Bryant’s knife was held way way back behind her; Reardon could have covered that ground is he had reacted appropriate to the circumstances. Pinkie and Bryant were moving back together in contact.
While all this might not have been easy to take in A good police officer would go be the rule of thumb that a young girl was probably not going to kill, and had confidence in his ability to grab her. Reardon lacks a commanding presence, did not seem to know what to do, then was half hearted at stopping Bryant physically, but he is obviously practiced at gun drills. He said “Get Down twice, but did not tell her to drop the knife. He is not a bad guy like Chauvin is, just not someone who can cope with surprises.
Are you insane?
Reardon stepped in and broke up Ma’K the Knife’s attempt to murder Dreads Girl. He must have been utterly shocked when she then charged Pink Girl. That’s insanely violent. But he still did the right thing and stopped her from disemboweling Pink Girl.
Also, the NYP article misstates Fowler’s opinions. It mentions the carbon monoxide and Floyd’s bad heart, but leaves out the fentanyl/meth combo (Speedball) Floyd had just taken. Baker, the Minneapolis ME(who also testified), said the drug combo alone would be enough to kill Floyd. Baker admitted he’s listed Fentanyl as the COD on hundreds of death certificates with the same or much less of it in the toxicology reports.Replies: @reiner Tor
Well, rule of law n sheeit.
TBH I don’t think the cop did anything wrong, perhaps he could have checked the heartbeat of George Floyd, but it’s questionable if his life could have been saved. It’s certainly not like he deserves to spend the rest of his life behind bars.
Linking to video does not substitute for actual real-world testing. This is keyboard-jockey stuff. You can perform the Tueller drill with an Airsoft so no one gets hurt, and it will teach you more than 100 videos. Similarly you could set up something like the situation Reardon rolled into. Actually doing something real will teach more than keyboard commandoing.
A good police officer would go be the rule of thumb that a young girl was probably not going to kill, and had confidence in his ability to grab her.
You clearly don’t know anything about this subject. It appears that you have found a new chew-toy to mumble over, that’s all.

[Data for homicide by firearm discharge, which is the vast majority of homicides. 2018]
939 killed by black females, ~6.5% of the population.
.065 X 330,000,000 = 21,450,000 / 939 = 1 per 22,843
3,303 killed by white males, ~35% of the population.
.35 X 330,000,000 = 115,500,000 / 3303 = 1 per 34,968
So black women murder at a rate 1.5X white men.
BWTM:
6,998 killed by black men.
.065 X 330,000,000 = 21,450,000 / 6,998 = 1 per 3,065
An order of magnitude > white men and about 7:1 to black women.
Think about that. One in 3000 black males will commit a murder this year.
I expect it to be miniscule.
Whatever else you can say about white women, they are not murderous in the literal sense.

949. Bout the same as black women. But white women are about 35% of the population, vs 6.5% for black women.
35 / 6.5 = 5.4X
I should have noted before that these are DEATH figures, not murderer figures. But they are still good, because, generally, blacks kill blacks, whites kill whites, and Asians don’t kill anyone.
