![]() Black Rioters in Cincinnati |
Racial rioting broke out in Cincinnati, Ohio after the shooting of a Black
suspect, Timothy Thomas, by a four-year veteran White police officer, Steve
Roach. Thomas, who was fleeing police, jumped a 10-foot fence behind an
abandoned building. When confronted by officer Roach, Thomas reached in his
pocket, and believing Thomas was reaching for a gun, was shot dead. It
turned out that Thomas was unarmed.
Local news media, in a rush to play the race card, played up the shooting by
focusing on the fact that Officer, Steve Thomas, was White and the suspect
was Black. Angry mobs of Black rioters attacked innocent Whites, burned
buildings and looted businesses. Though Ohio has a Hate Crime statute, none
of the Black attackers who targeted Whites have been arrested and no mention
of using the State's Hate Crime laws has been made.

There is no doubt that had these rioters been White, and the victims Black,
Ohio State Attorney General Betty D. Montgomery, and Federal Officials,
would have begun an immediate investigation and offered huge rewards for the
arrest and conviction of Whites who had attacked Blacks. The FBI would have
filed federal civil rights charges against the White attackers and soon we
would see a TV miniseries focusing on the pain caused by "hate" in America.
But when the victims of racial violence are White, there is no justice and
no public outcry.
The select use of hate Crime Laws is not unique. Recent Black rioting during
Seattle, Washington's Fat Tuesday celebration was caught on video by TV
helicopters. Whites were beaten, raped and killed by Black rioters and Black
mobs. Though many of the attackers were caught on tape committing these
crimes, no Hate Crime charges have been filed, leaving many bewildered,
liberal, Whites in Washington State angry and confused. One White killed
during the Seattle riots was 20-year-old Kristopher Kime, who was bludgeoned
to death while trying to help a young White girl that had been attacked.
Kime was struck in the back of the head and stomped to death by a Black mob.
Had European Americans carried out this horrendous crime it would have been
the subject of international outrage and lawmakers and "Black leaders" would
be calling for an end to "hate" in America.
![]() 8-year-old Kevin Shifflet killed by Black attacker |
In one of the most startling cases of Black on White crime was the brutal stabbed 8-year-old Kevin Shifflett in Alexandria, Virginia in April 2000. Kevin was playing in his front yard when a Black attacked brutally stabbed him to death. Kevin Shifflett, a boy described by neighbors and family as polite and courteous, died at the scene. His great-grandmother and a good Samaritan were injured by the attacker as they came to the boy's aid. Police conspired to cover-up evidence, and prosecutors refused to charge a Black murderer with the State's Hate Crime laws. Though a note was found in the attackers house that stated that the Black murderer was targeting Whites, police hid the note and local media refused to print the racial details of the case.
![]() Black violence and vandelism is covered under Ohio's Hate Crime Statutes |
No Hate Crime charges were filed against two homosexuals who raped and
tortured to death 13-year-old Jesse Dirkhising in Rogers, Arkansas. Though
this case received some national publicity, state prosecutors refused to
charge the men with a hate crime.
Another example of the selective use of State Hate Crime laws was rioting in
New York City's Central Park during the Puerto Rican day festival in June
2000. Hispanic and Black youths were again caught on tape attacking innocent
Whites, raping some and forcibly fondling White woman. New York State has a
tough Hate Crime law but non-White attackers, though arrested, were not
charge with Hate Crimes.
There is little doubt that the promotion of the few crimes committed by
Whites against minorities, by the controlled mass media, is fueling the
flames of racial hatred and violence against Whites. According to recent
crime statistics 95% of all interracial crime is Black on White. The
national media suppresses the overwhelming number of crimes against Whites
and instead promotes the rare White on Black crime as a national tragedy.
This untrue characterization leads to more Black hatred and violence against
White people. Distorted reporting of cross-race crimes ends up costing
additional European American lives.

One thing that we can do to make a difference is to contact our state
legislators and tell them that you want to see so-called Hate Crime statutes
repealed or enforced equally. State Representatives and Senators are
responsible for passing these laws and should be held accountable for their
use. You can find out who your State Representatives and Senators are by
visiting your state's web site. These sites contain contact information for
your elected officials. Let these officials know that you are opposed to
your state's Hate Crime statutes but if they are on the book you want them
enforced equally. Help make your voice heard. To find your state government

Calling the Governor is an effective way to get your message across. Be
polite and tell the staffer who answers the phone that you want to leave a
message for the Governor. Tell the staff member that you are outraged at the
lawless behavior of Black rioters and their attacks on Whites. Tell them
that you demand that the Governor ask Ohio State Attorney General Betty D.
Montgomery to charge Blacks who attacked Whites used Ohio's Hate Crime
statute. Be sure to be polite and brief. Remember, this is a staff member,
not the Governor.

We have come a long way in the last year but not far enough. Though we now
have a voice that reaches many of our major cities, we must work together to
effectively organize our people and force our government to accept
N.O.F.E.A.R. as a viable partner for community relations. Never has it been
more important to work together and organize our people against injustice
and hatred.
