white supremacist stabbed african american man to death with a sword

>After seeing his picture in the news, Jackson turned himself in at a police station. He was armed with two knives and told officers he had tossed the sword in a trash bin in Washington Square Park, officials said. It was later recovered.

>Investigators said they were trying to determine exactly what drove Jackson to violence. They planned to search his laptop and phone and interviewed friends and family.

>His attorney, Sam Talkin, said if the allegations are anywhere close to being true, "then we're going to address the obvious psychological issues that are present in this case."

>Jackson was in the Army from 2009 to 2012 and worked as an intelligence analyst, the Army said. Deployed in Afghanistan in 2010-11, he earned several medals and attained the rank of specialist.

>Dr. Scott Krugman, chairman of pediatrics at Franklin Square Medical Center in Baltimore and a friend of the family, said the allegations were out of character with his family's beliefs and the way he was raised.

>Jackson's parents, David and Patricia Jackson, are active members of Towson Presbyterian Church and have two other sons. Patricia Jackson is a former teacher of English-language students in the Baltimore County school system and worked for Well for the Journey, a Christian nonprofit organization that helps people "integrate spirituality into their daily lives in a safe, inclusive space."

>"They're liberal as liberal can be," Krugman said. "We were at a dinner party with them and everybody was complaining about the current administration and very open about rights for everybody and making sure we're not excluding immigrants, everything like that. I'm just beyond shocked right now."

>In a statement, the Jackson family extended condolences to Caughman's family and said it was "shocked, horrified and heartbroken by this tragedy."

>Caughman had lived for 18 years in a former hotel in Manhattan, sharing the building with tenants who were part of a temporary-housing program. Caughman was not part of the program; he was a tenant already living in the century-old, seven-story building.

>He was "extremely respectful" of his neighbors and building workers, said Svein Jorgensen, the program's executive director. "He was a great tenant and someone that anyone would be glad to have as a neighbor." He added: "He was a gentleman."

>Caughman displayed photos of himself with celebrities on his Twitter page, where he also showed that he was proud to have voted in the election. He struck up a longtime Twitter relationship with Shari Headley, the actress who played Eddie Murphy's love interest in "Coming to America."

>After his death, she tweeted: "My heart is heavy typing this. Timothy Caughman was a fan of mine since 1991. He only spread LOVE. His murder was senseless."

>His family was upset that he was initially portrayed in some news reports as a homeless man with a criminal past. He had a criminal history, but the most recent offense was a low-level pot arrest in 2002.

>His cousin Seth Peek told The New York Times that in the 1970s and '80s, Caughman worked with young people in Queens as part of a youth program.

>"He wasn't just a vagrant person collecting bottles," Peek said. "That was not just what his life was. He went to college, and he was concerned with young people in the neighborhood."

>Like the KKK, shouldn't they be cheering him on.
try actually reading about what sort of a group KKK de facto is/was, instead of listening some BLM-activists and CNN propaganda about the group, and you might understand why they're not "endorsing" shit like this.
BLM is by far the more violent group of those two, and that is a fact.

>>125684
It's bad publicity, and they aren't a socially accepted group, or less so then BLM. BLM can act openly now a days, the KKK really can't. Back when they were in control, they did do shit like beating, torturing, abductions, and lynching. Look up the Rosewood Massacre and the lynching of Jesse Washington for what society was like back when the KKK was what was acceptable.

>>125696

jesus how many guys got killed because some slut regretted sucking dick

>>125700
Nah, didn't even have to touch em to get a lynching party, just be in the vicinity. Take Emmett Till, who was tortured and lynched after he was accused of whistling to a white woman.

A large crowd of from 5,000 to 15,000 people packed into an area of as little as 400 sq yards, took Smith from his captors and placed him on a mule cart. They paraded him through the town [of Paris located in Texas,] and to an open stretch of prairie between the cemetery and railroad tracks. There, organizers had built a 10-foot scaffold painted with the word "Justice."

Smith was tied up and tortured for an hour by Henry Vance, his 15-year-old son, and his brothers-in-law. The men placed hot irons under Smith's feet, burned his trunk and limbs and finally gouged his eyes with hot irons. A February 2, 1893 article in the New York Sun reported, "Every groan from the fiend, every contortion of his body was cheered by the thickly packed crowd."

Finally, the crowd poured oil on Smith and set the scaffold on fire. According to some newspaper accounts, Smith remained alive during the burning. He was reported to have torn himself away from the post and fallen off the scaffolding, where he died. The crowd sifted through the ashes to collect Smith's bones and shards of wood as souvenirs.

>>125706
God damn democrats are disgusting.

This is what they'll do again if we let our guard down.

>>125709
I don't really think it's a political party issue, but a southern issue. The south has almost always supported the more racial or socially conservative positions, while the midwest has usually been more libertarian by comparison.

>>125711
No. Fuck you. You don't get to erase an entire history of racism because it hurts your world view.

The KKK and the people who did these lynchings were the democrat party.

The republican party formed solely to free the blacks from this kind of torture.

Liberty has always been a partisan issue, with the republicans on the right side of history and democrats desperately projecting and lying about the facts.

Soon republicans will end racist affirmative action laws and discrimination in favor of illegal aliens. They'll begin and end the civil rights era of our time (privacy) and the democrats will immediately begin taking credit for their effort.

>>125717
I was just thinking, at that point they're just crushing each other. Only the people on the edge of the crowd would be able to control where they move at all, and those on the inside certainly couldn't grab anything or even raise their arms. The numbers can't be right, even at 5000 that's like sardines in a can.

>>125723
The numbers are probably exaggerated. hopefully the level of violence as well.

in 500 years they'll say that everyone in the crowd was wearing a MAGA hat

https://www.fbi.gov/news/ stories/2015-hate-crime-statistics-released

>Of the 5,493 known offenders, 48.4 percent were white, 24.3 percent were black or African-American, and race was unknown for 16.2 percent of the offenders. The rest were of various other races.

Maybe it's because blatant black-on-white hate crime happens less often and claims less lives than you think.

It's still an ugly crime, and the black community shouldn't defend it, but to say it's misreported is rather disingenuous considering the massive coverage the 2016 police shooting got, along with other miscellaneous shootings.

>>125743
your stats don't back up your claims

blacks are only 13% of the population. according to your source they are committing a disproportionate number of hate crimes.


>the massive coverage the 2016 police
They didn't even report it as a hate crime. Your post is garbage lies.

>>125601
No, they talk about his character being great and working with a youth program, which you'd know if you actually read the article, durr.

>>125482

Are you threatening us?

>>125744
Do I have to link the goddamn Wikipedia page AND the dozens of news articles on the shooting which clearly stated his intentions to kill white police officers to avenge the killing of Sterling and Castile? How much more black-and-white do you want it?

And before you try arguing that the media went soft on him, CNN went so far as to quote then-Dallas police-chief David Brown's (who is black) description of the attack as an 'evil tragedy'. Hate crime is hate crime, and will be reported as such when there is sufficient evidence to prove it.

>>125768
They are. Honestly, American liberals need to get over their fear of guns, because we may need them for self preservation.

>>125770
I remember the news story and you aren't going to gaslight me into developing a new memory.

Yes they did technically mention that it was a hate crime SOME OF THE TIME

Most of the time, the media acted confused as fuck just like when a Muslim bombs.

>is this a hate crime? Let's discuss it

That's not calling it a hate crime.

>>125773
I honestly don't understand what you mean by 'gaslighting'. I stated the facts clear and simple for you to look up, and if anything your confusion proves your laziness (Some of the time? Come the fuck on).

Now that I know this, allow me to give you articles written directly after the attack:

http://edition.cnn.com /2016/07/08/us/philando-castile-alton-sterling-protests/

https://www.nytimes. com/2016/07/09/us/dallas-police-shooting.html

https://www.washingtonpost. com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/07/08/like-a-little-war-snipers-shoot-11-police-officers-during-dallas-protest-march-killing-five/?utm_term=.da962605faaf
(Again, Brown is quoted as calling it an 'atrocity'.)

http://kdvr.com/2016/07/07/report-at-least-2-dallas-officers-shot-at-protest-over-police-shootings/

These articles, and many more, repeat ad nauseam Johnson's intentions to specifically target white police officers. And those that don't were initial reports during the hours when police didn't even know how many snipers there were, let alone their identities and motives.

Your memories are more fallible than you'd like to think, even before the spooks start messing with 'em.

>>125775
Look at the titles of your articles. They just sound like regular crimes, not hate crimes.

Not compare it to this hate crime that is the topic of this thread
>>125481
Police: Random Racist Violence Ends in Death of Black Man

Notice how the hate crime is clearly described in the title.

Do you see the difference I see?

>>125627
No, he is going to be a target in jail and a death of an inmate is a pain in the ass for guards.

>>125771
You can't really be trusted with them. Too irresponsible.

>I read nothing but headlines; the post

It's deeply insulting to everyone's intelligence that you described the deadliest day for law-enforcement officials since 9/11 itself as a 'regular crime'.

And note that first word, 'Police', which keeps popping up in headlines. The police themselves, along with the prosecutor for the case, are describing it as a hate crime, so don't blame the media for directly quoting their opinions. Besides, Breitbart's own headline for their online article isn't all that different anyway, as it also states the bare facts:

http://www.breitbart.com/news/police-white-sword-killer-went-to-ny-to-attack-black-people/

And finally, although it's not too relevant at this point, you should know that Obama wanted the federal government to prosecute Micah Johnson as a hate-criminal, and was only prevented from doing so because you can't try sausage-meat in a court.

>>125790
And to further add to my post:

http://www.breitbart.com /news/official-sword-death-of-black-man-is-assault-on-diversity/

You should take a look at the comments section when you're done reading. A couple of them are recommending execution for this asshole.

>>125790
>It's deeply insulting to everyone's intelligence that you described the deadliest day for law-enforcement officials since 9/11 itself as a 'regular crime'.

I'm not the one who gave a hate crime such a blase title in the articles.

Save your fake outrage for the authors of those misleading articles.

>Obama
OH PUH LEASE BITCH don't even go there

you are so full of bullshit

>>125796
You do realise that link titles don't describe headlines in full, do you? Here's some in full:

Dallas shooting suspect stated he wanted to 'kill white officers' - The Guardian

Those sound pretty damning to me. As to your last comment, I had an inkling that was coming. It's alright, it's my fault for not providing a source, so here you go:

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/jul/12/obama-tells-police-dallas-shooting-was-hate-crime/

Granted, I'm angry that no-one got the chance to drag him to court, but I don't think the Feds could've done anything worse to him than what Chief Brown did.

>>125802
>You do realise that link titles don't describe headlines in full, do you?
I'm sure by now you have googled to find an article that properly casts the cop killings as hate crimes. Why haven't you found one?

It's because the media treats these stories differently.

Notice how they clearly say WHITE RACIST KILL BLACK MAN. There is no mystery as to whether or not this was a hate crime.

Why don't your articles say "black racist kills white cop"? They call him "Dallas shooting suspect" instead. How utterly vague.

>>125806
Again; take your beef up with the people saying the quotes, not the people writing them down. I can't think of a way to make this clearer, especially since every outlet on the political spectrum is reporting it in the same exact way.

You're free to disagree with them, but to ask them to sacrifice journalistic integrity and put words in mouths is crossing the line. Micah Johnson wasn't described as a 'hate-criminal' simply because he couldn't be officially prosecuted as such, unlike in this case. Though personally, I really DO disagree with the government's decision not to emphasise the true nature of the crime, which pissed off quite a few cops and people. This was also fairly portrayed by the media, as you can see here:

https://www.yahoo.com/news/u-s-attorney-general-hate-crime-charge-unlikely-if-shooter-acted-alone-200558816.html

You don't see the difference between this and the story of this thread?

Your link there doesn't describe that a black man did a hate crime. It just says "hate crime" which actually implies a white on black crime to most people.

It is deliberately misleading. Where as the article in this thread makes it clear that a WHITE RACIST killed a BLACK MAN.

>>125620
This, generally high profiles aren't kept in general pop. Too big a target.

>>125806
>Why don't your articles say "black racist kills white cop"? They call him "Dallas shooting suspect" instead. How utterly vague.

Maybe this white guy has confessed to targeting people based on their race?

Wasn't they Dallas shooter targeting people based on their police uniforms?

>>125925

But that's not the narrative tge media likes to give us

>>125606
kek ur an idiot.

>>125933
>But that's not the narrative tge media likes to give us

Maybe the media assumption is all blacks kill whites because of race grievance, but when a white man kills a black it needs to be said it's because of racism, because the media know there are dozens of legitimate reasons for white to slay black.

The media are racist either way I guess.

>>125938

That's real retarded, sir. You just can't admit that the media has an anti-white narrative.

>>125945

It's not impossible for a group as large as 'the media' to have negative bias against more than one group.

>>125647
