Homophobia Among Blacks

The American Pravda is correct for a change.  Apparently, there is a problem with homophobia, but it's coming from the black population which presents the corrupt media with a dilemma.  Do they expose it and vilify blacks or expose it to help the gay community?  My now...... that is a problem.  I'm guessing that they'll lie low on this one.

PERFECT STORM' OF BLACK VIOLENCE ON 'GAYS'

Media blackout, victim fear and cultural condemnation

Editor’s note: Colin Flaherty has done more reporting than any other journalist on what appears to be a nationwide trend of skyrocketing black-on-white crime, violence and abuse. WND features these reports to counterbalance the virtual blackout by the rest of the media due to their concerns that reporting such incidents would be inflammatory or even racist. WND considers it racist not to report racial abuse solely because of the skin color of the perpetrators or victims.

Black mob violence against “gay” people is a perfect storm of three secret worlds: Newspapers do not report the predators, victims do not report the crimes and being “gay” is “about the worst thing you can be in black culture,” CNN anchor Don Lemon told the New York Times.

That is why a growing number of people – black and white, “gay” and straight – say this violence is more widespread and less reported than most people think.

So let’s start the reporting, beginning with the benign and working toward the violent.

Sometimes the homophobia is just talk. Black people voted overwhelmingly against “gay” rights initiatives in California and North Carolina. “Gay” writer Dan Savage belled the cat: “I’m done pretending that the handful of racist gay white men out there … are a bigger problem for African Americans, gay and straight, than the huge numbers of homophobic African Americans are for gay Americans, whatever their color.”

Convoluted? Yes. But in the hyper-sensitive environs of the politically correct, this was a shot heard round the world.

Black antipathy toward “gay” people is featured in the work of the most popular black hip hop performers. Comments from superstar 50 Centrepresent hundreds of articles and videos old and new easily found on the Internet: “I ain’t into f——. I don’t like gay people around me, because I’m not comfortable with what their thoughts are.”

Talking is one thing. Violence another. And more people are finding it harder to ignore the “anti-gay violence that plagues the black community,” says a headline for an article by Kenyon Farrow in The Grio, a black news website produced by NBC News.

“Incidents in the black community usually receive little or no attention, we have our own problems with homophobic violence here in the U.S.”

The most visible recent case of black mob violence against a “gay” person happened in Atlanta.

A “gay” man goes into a store, comes out and finds a dozen men taunting him with anti-”gay” epithets. Then they beat him. They threw a tire at him. All on video with commentary featuring lots of laughing.

He did not report the crime until the video of his beating went viral.

Newspapers in Atlanta – and the rest of the country – are getting more and more perplexed about what to do with citizen reporters not trained to ignore racial violence.

Such was the case when hundreds of black people raged through a crowd at an outdoor summer movie festival in an Atlanta “gay” neighborhood. One witness was so unhappy at the newspaper’s lack of coverage, he reported it himself on YouTube.

“What happened last night (June 3) at Screen on the Green was not simply ‘fights’ between unruly teens as the local TV stations would like their audiences to believe. These savages went ape—- and hunted down ‘gays’ and lesbians to attack!” the report said.

“They specifically began targeting members of the LGBT community around Blake’s and along 10th St. The local news media is acting as if this were a simple scuffle and that’s totally unacceptable.

“It was like a riot in a third world country,” the report said.

At least one other article about the widespread black-on-”gay” violence appeared in the local “gay” paper. According to Jesse Rhodes, a “gay” person: “We felt like sitting ducks. They were definitely targeting gay people. One of my good friends, who is gay and works at Swinging Richards, got jumped by five people and beat up.

Rhodes added, according to the article, that when he was walking out of the park he was called ‘f—–’ and other obscenities and said women at the event were also called lesbians.

The next day, Atlanta police said they had no reports of any anti-”gay” violence and very little information about violence of any kind at the festival.

Let’s move over to Chicago: Ground Zero for racial violence and denial.

Boys Town in Chicago is a “gay” neighborhood. Also called Streeterville, this usually tranquil and “eclectic” (that’s the journalistic code word for “gay”) area saw more than its share of black racial violence in the summer of 2011.

In July 2011, a man spilled a drink on another man, accidentally. The man who got wet was part of a large gang of black people. The soon-to-be-victim was a beautician walking with his boyfriend. He got stabbed and beat up. It’s on video. Let’s go to the local ABC affiliate:

“It was an obvious mob mentality. You saw people cheering it on. People running in to give one quick jab or kick and then back out and cheering them on. It’s scary,” Sall said.

Though unrelated, residents say this is the third stabbing in the area in recent weeks. The last one happened five days ago, just one block north, when a man was robbed in a 7-Eleven parking lot at Halsted and Roscoe.

Residents say the problems are due to large groups of people from outside the neighborhood loitering in the area. Alderman Tom Tunney, 44th Ward, said Monday night that this is a subject that has been coming up for the last couple of years.

“There tends to be large groups of minority youths on Halsted.”

Lots of episodes over a long period of time? Third stabbing in a few weeks? No one knew about the racial violence. No one knew about the “gay” bashing until this alderman revealed it almost by accident.

In June 2011, Chicago police arrested several black men for a series of four attacks and robberies in the same neighborhood. Any distinguishing features of the victims or assailants? You could not tell if you only listened to this account.

But the people arrested were black. At least one of the victims was “gay.” And everyone was a lot happier not talking about it. Except for this dude, a local “gay” resident who says the problem of violence and lawlessness is reaching epidemic levels.

“A rash of violent crime by black youth in Chicago’s predominately gay and white Lakeview neighborhood (aka, Boystown) has residents on edge, and sparking age old tensions between Blacks and the White GBLT community,” said one video blogger. “It’s been going on for a couple of years. People are getting very, very frightened.”

The blogger says white people are afraid to mention the race or their attackers, for fear of being labeled a racist.

“But if it’s true it’s true,” he said.

In July, 100 black people pelted cars outside of a “gay” club with bottles and rocks. When police were slow to respond, one man accused them of being racist because they would not arrest the black law breakers.

Even the Chicago Sun-Times is getting religion. Kind of. After a series of violent episodes in Streeterville, some on video, the outcry against black-mob-on-”gay” violence is rising even above the fear of being called a racist.

The police and politicians don’t talk about it, but drug dealing, gang activity, prostitution and muggings are not uncommon. They also don’t want to talk about the fact that many of the perpetrators are people of color.

People of color? Indians? Native Americans? Asians? Even the bravest in this crowd just cannot make themselves think the unthinkable: This is racial violence from groups of black people on “gay” people.

Much more violence against gays here.
