Opuscula Inter-racial terrorism: Whites join blacks To “celebrate” MLK

ON MONDAY, MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY Jan. 20, 2020, I complained about blacks and a a few whites and other “people of color” terrorizing anyone who dared to be on the highways and byways of Dade County (Miami) Florida on Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

I also criticized Law Enforcement Officers, LEOs, as well as local and state politicians for failing to do their job of protecting the people.

In the past, it seems the LEOs ran and hid for the duration and the politicians hid their eyes.

This year, the LEOs did better, but the politicians — not so much.

WATCHING TV “NEWS” I noticed there were more than a few whites taking advantage of the day memorializing the civil rights leader.

Like the Muslims of Hamas and Hezbollah, they hid their faces from the cameras as they made excuses for endangering others and themselves.

Normally if a person wants to risk his, or her, life, my feeling is “let them.”

Unfortunately for the rest of the world, when these terrorists risk their lives they often put others in danger as well.

Dishonoring King

The man these terrorists and terrorist want-to-be’s pretend to honor preached peace. He preached brotherhood among people of all races.

In that end, it appears “brotherhood among people of all races” was achieved if the number of blacks, whites, and “people of color” rampaging on Miami’s streets is any indication.

Peace? Not so much.

According to Miami’s WSVN Channel 7,¹

According to Miami-Dade Police, officers have impounded 36 vehicles, issued 44 traffic citations and recovered (?) two firearms. As far as arrests, police said they have made 11 felony arrests, five misdemeanor arrests and 14 traffic arrests for a total of 30. The numbers include activity from Saturday through Monday.

North of the county line, Broward Sheriff’s Office officials have reported 14 arrests, 18 criminal citations, 16 vehicles towed and one gun recovered.

The station initially reported At least 100 all-terrain vehicle and dirt bike riders were spotted across parts of Miami-Dade County. Apparently no one “guesstimated” the number of riders in neighboring Broward County (Fort Lauderdale).

What is meant by “recovered” guns is something only the LEOs and the reporter know. Were the weapons lost? Stolen? Otherwise, why “recovered.”

Editors challenging reporters to provide complete information must be a thing of the past.

A total of 16 vehicles were towed — 16 out of “at least” 100 vehicles.

That may be a better performance by the LEOs than in previous years, but it is an “F” in any classroom.

Patch.com² provided some comparisons with previous years for Dade County. According to its figures,

Felony Arrests - 11 felony arrests, up to from 9 last year
Misdemeanor arrests - 5 up from 3
Traffic arrests - 14 up from 2
Firearms seized - 2 down from 4 last year
Vehicles impounded - 36 impounded vehicles compared to 34 in 2019
Traffic citations 44 up from 17

In 2018, Miami-Dade police impounded 72 vehicles, twice as many as this year, the site reported.

The Sun-Sentinel³ reports that

A dirt bike rider was killed in a crash in northwest Miami in a crash that happened about 7 p.m. Monday, police said. According to officer Christopher Bess, Javis Charles, 25, was near Northwest Sixth Avenue and 54th Street when a Toyota driver "attempted to make a left turn in front of the dirt bike." Charles was taken to the trauma center at Jackson Memorial Hospital where he died, Bess said Tuesday.

A day earlier, on Sunday, an ATV rider was killed in a crash on the Palmetto Expressway, according to WPLG-Ch. 10.

Additionally, a motorcyclist who was part of a larger group of ATV riders was critically hurt in a crash near Northwest 167th Street and 27th Avenue, according to the Miami Herald.

Many warnings, few consequences

The terrorists were warned again and again by local LEOs — city cops, county cops, highway patrol — that there would be consequences if the laws were violated.

If Patch.com statics, ibid. are to be believed, then the terrorists thumbed their noses at the LEOs and the laws. Assuming WSVN’s numbers were even close, then it is fairly obvious that being a scofflaw is a fairly safe pastime. The word will go out for 2021 that the chances of being arrested for anything is minimal.

It will be interesting to see if any media follow up on penalties by crime. A slap on the wrist and a picayunish fine for terrorism on streets and highways? That really will be a deterrent.

Given the number of south Florida drivers who legally carry firearms in their vehicles, it is amazing that more bikers are not shot by a driver they threaten by their actions and their sheer numbers.

Wheels (or Bikes) Up in south Florida is just another way of saying “Stupidity Up.”

Does anyone really think this is how Martin Luther King Jr. wants to be remembered?

Comment on Inter-racial terrorism

Opuscula Blacks disrespect MLK Jr.’s memory; Foment race hatred

THE POSTERS STATE “BIKES UP, GUNS DOWN,” but only the first part is true.

Blacks, at least in Dade County (Miami) Florida take over the streets on Martin Luther King Jr. day with licensed and unlicensed motorcycles and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs).

Despite their bluster of controlling events, the local Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) — from city and county cops to the state’s Highway Patrol, close their eyes to threats to people just trying to get from Point A to Point B.

TO BE FAIR, The ML King Jr. celebrations bring terrorists from around the U.S. and, according to tv talking heads, the world; terrorists and terrorist want-to-be’s of all races head for the (relative) warmth of south Florida to “behave badly.”

Dream becomes nightmare

King preached peaceful coexistence. I had a dream¹ was King’s dream. The behavior of the Bikes up, Guns down blacks, along with a few whites and other “people of color,” is anathema to that dream.

King knew about terrorism.

As a black he knew about white supremacists, not all of whom wore robes and hid their faces.

As of noon Monday, 20 JAN, Dade County LEOS managed to arrest two Hispanics.

Would King applaud the black terrorists on the streets.

Would he support blacks risking their lives by stunt riding on public roads?

Would King come down on the side of law and order or on the side of the terrorists?

King DID believe in civil disobedience — marches, sit-ins, and disregard of segregationists signs, e.g., Whites Only water coolers, Whites Only beaches.

But did he support black terrorists? In a word, NO, according to the King Institute at Stanford University.²

Call out the guard

The governor and local politicians are sworn to protect the citizens in their jurisdictions.

If the local LEOs are unable to do their jobs, then it is the governor’s obligation to call out the state’s Guard to do the job the cops can’t or won’t.

Calling out the Guard, however is a two-edged sword.

The Guard is trained to fight a war or to rescue people who refused to get out of danger when Nature went on a rampage, bringing floods, storm surges, strong winds, etc.

(It is this scrivener’s experience that most people needing to be rescued refused to leave when ordered to do so. Most flood and hurricane threats are predictable far enough in advance so people who are willing can take shelter in a safer area. Failing to evacuate when ordered puts responders’ lives in danger.)

The Guard is, generally, not trained to replace trained LEOs.

Remember the Ohio National Guard and Kent State University? That incident started off as a demonstration against the U.S. incursion into Cambodia and ended with four fatalities.³

Still, flaunting and taunting the law with “reckless endangerment” to innocents needs to be squashed. If that means calling out the Guard and issuing rubber bullets or bird shot, then so be it.

Since a number of blacks inappropriately celebrating MLK Jr. Day are armed, the Guards having rubber bullets or bird shot must be backed up by Guards with combat (real) ammunition.

This scrivener is NOT in favor of killing, or even seriously wounding, anyone, but if that is what it takes to protect the majority of people — of all races — then that must be an option.

Anarchy, and anarchy is exactly when the “Up with bikes, Down with guns” riders are committing on Dade County streets and highways, must NOT be allowed.

Parades, speeches

Parades and speeches are better — and safer — to honor MLK Jr.’s legacy.

Non-violent protests, protests protected by local LEOs so that protesters are well separated from anti-demonstrators (to avoid what occurred at the University of Virginia at Charlottesville VA).⁴

As long as the speeches don’t instigate violence by anyone against anyone, speeches should be encouraged.

Many cities with large black populations have marches honoring King. Almost all such communities have streets, parks, libraries, and other tax-supported facilities named in honor of King.

There are many ways to honor King and other famous blacks —Booker T. Washington, Harriet Tubman, Jesse Owens, Muhammad Ali, Sojourner Truth, and Tuskegee airmen among others⁴ — and these people should be recognized, alongside other illustrious people: Billy Bowlegs, Samuel Langhorne Clemens to name but two.

Perhaps members of the Seminole⁵ and Miccosukee⁶ tribes should give up their peaceful (and profitable) ways and take over the south Florida streets with their vehicles. Historically, they have as much — or greater — right to endanger the “immigrants” (of all races) to their territory.

Bottom line

Taking over the streets and terrorizing the general population — everyone — is not the legacy I suspect Martin Luther King Jr. wanted to leave behind. Certainly it does not help integration or build good will between races and, without a doubt, between generations.

What “Bikes up, Guns down” does, it creates resentment and, to some degree, anti-black sentiment which is unfair to the majority of people who are law abiding citizens and are likely as unhappy with the bikers’ shenanigans as are all others who respect the law.

What “Bikes up, Guns down “ does NOT do is to remove any weapons from the street.
