Colin Flaherty: Don’t Open Your Door for the Fellas, Seniors …

Colin discusses and reviews news coverage of attacks on seniors by the fellas. The fellas come up with a pretense to have homeowner open the door of their home, then proceed to barge in and viciously beat the snoot out of them and rob them.[most recent link i could find and article below]By WWAY News - January 31, 2018 3:34 PMMYRTLE BEACH, N.C. (WFMY) Rest easy tonight.

Those are the words Randolph County Sheriff Robert Graves gave his community after Jeremy Hayes and his girlfriend Kennedy Boggs were taken into custody in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, on Tuesday night.

Hayes is wanted in connection with several robberies and assaults, including assaults on two North Carolina elderly couples.

During a press conference Tuesday night, Graves said Myrtle Beach authorities were in contact with Randolph County investigators on Sunday regarding armed robberies in their area. Hayes and Boggs were suspects.

Graves said the couple were arrested after a police chase that ended in a crash in Myrtle Beach. They are working on the extradition process to get the couple back in North Carolina.

Investigators said Hayes had 15 outstanding warrants for his arrest in North Carolina and Boggs had three outstanding warrants.

The first attack happened last week at a home on Ingram Drive in Asheboro. An elderly couple was attacked in their home after opening their door to a man claiming to be with the water department.

Hayes is believed to have attacked the couple who are both in their 80s. Emergency crews treated the couple for various injuries. Investigators believe Hayes girlfriend, Kennedy Boggs, is related to the victims.

Sunday, Graves confirmed they believed Hayes attacked again. This time it was a person working at a rest stop in Seagrove. The 21-year-old victim was robbed and beaten so badly that he needed 35 stitches and 42 staples.

Deputies say they think he committed another assault and robbery Saturday night of an elderly couple on the 5000 block of Old Randleman Road in Guilford County.

WFMY News 2 spoke with the victims grandson, Bobby McInnis.

McInnis said Hayes came to his grandparents door saying he had run out of gas. When they opened the door to help Hayes, he burst in and started whipping the couple with his pistol.

Im just grappling with how someone could do this, said McInnis. Im thanking God that they made it through this.

McInnis said his grandparents received multiple stitches and staples for their injuries. His grandfathers nose is broken and both of the victims are badly bruised.

In September, Jeremy Hayes was arrested for robbing an elderly man. Court documents show the case was dismissed when prosecutors were unable to locate the victim to testify and Hayes went free. [END]

Colin Flaherty | Judgement Of America

New: Race War in Chicago?

Colin Flaherty on WVON urban radio. It gets dicey.

From the Bill Cunningham show. It is official: Colin Flaherty is a great American.

A new book from Washington Post-award winning writer Colin Flaherty

Race riots are back.

Along with racial violence.

You didnt hear about it?

The Midwest state fair with a Beat Whitey Night? Or the Black Beach Week that turns a town into living hell?Or the school principal who blamed Asian students for being racist after suffering years of abuse?

These criminal episodes go by different names: Flash mobs, flash robs, black on white crime, or as one social worker put it: Kids just blowing off steam.

Anything except what they are: Racial violence.

Now for the first time, a new book breaks the code of silence on the explosion of racial violence in more than 50 cities since 2010. All impeccably documented, says the Houston Examiner.

A must read, says the Sevier County News.

Great book,says theArsenal of Freedom. Real interesting.

Now it is all on YouTube, making it harder to deny, said best selling author John Stryker Meyer. This is animportant and penetrating bookabout a big problem. Read it. Pass it around. Send it to a local talk show host or, better still, a reporter.

This new and updated second edition isavailable in paperback at Amazonand for your favorite e-readers.

Why did the Superintendent of Police in Chicago blame an outbreak of racial violence on Sarah Palin?

After thousands of black people stormed through South Philadelphia hurting and almost killing people, which University Medical Center hired a community organizer who said the rioters were just blowing off some steam.

After a crowd of 50 100 black people robbed a store, then beat up 10 picnickers at a nearby Fourth of July party, why did the police refuse to take a report?

Which state fair had a beat whitey night?

The largest race riot in the country happens every year on Memorial Day. Last year, 300,000 black people visited what town for a week, creating what the mayor called a living hell, complete with shootings and other mayhem?

After Asian students complained of years of physical abuse from black students, which high school principal gave Asian students a flyer describing how they should act so as to avoid antagonizing the black students?

Why did Peoria have more than a dozen race riots in less than a year?

Ever see a race riot play itself out on Twitter? You will.

Warning this information will change the way you look at the news and the world.

Colin Flaherty: Bathroom Beat Down – YouTube

Colin Flaherty discusses and review news coverage of a teen getting corner in a bathroom stall at McDonalds and getting punched over and over again

Below is a good link to the story.https://www.thedenverchannel.com/news...WELLINGTON, Fla. A mother says a video of her 15-year-old son being beaten up in a McDonalds bathroom in Wellington, Florida is being shared among students at Wellington High School.

Im terrified for my kid, said the victims mother, whose name Scripps sister station WPTV in West Palm Beach chose to withheld to protect her sons privacy.

The minute-long video shows a teenager kick open the stall door then proceed to punch the victim, who crouches on top of the toilet. The attacker is also yelling profanities. He pulls the victim to the ground and continues punching and kicking him.

He eventually asks the victim, who is still on the tile floor of the bathroom stall, to put the passcode into his phone. He grabs the phone from his hand then throws it onto the ground.

I was furious first of all then I became scared and then it was like disbelief, the victims mother said.

She said the incident happened Tuesday after school.

He ordered some food, he went into the bathroom and he was followed into the bathroom, she said

Palm Beach Sheriff's Office confirmed an incident happened Tuesday and that a 17-year-old juvenile was arrested.

I havent slept in days since I saw this video because how do you see your kid treated like that for no reason? the mom said.

She said another teenager took the video. She said her son doesnt personally know either the attacker or the person taking the video.

In the video, youll see this guy kick the stall door open and proceed to beat the crap out of my kid, telling him that its because his friend did something wrong, she said.

Her son is a sophomore at Wellington High School. She said he plays football for the school.

She found out about what happened Wednesday when she said she got a call from PBSO. She said students at Wellington High School were sending the video to each other and her sons friend brought it to the schools attention.

She said that friend was the person the attacker in the video brought up that he had some sort of issue with, but she said her son doesnt know the attacker besides hearing of him around school.

You see all this stuff on Facebook and you see it on Instagram and you see videos of these kids beating each other up, what has happened to our youth? She said.

She said her son filed a police report with PBSO. WPTV has requested a copy of that report.

This is the third attack of this nature reported in the past month. The first, a gang of girls attacked a fellow student at a park in West Boca at the end of December. And on Sunday, a video showed an attack between girls in Martin County. In these cases, police have arrested the attackers.

"Bullying has been around forever and fighting has been around forever, but I do think were more aware of it because there are so many cameras around taping it," said Dr. Raphi Wald, a licensed psychologist.

Dr. Wald said those videos cause even more lasting pain for victims.

"Im sure many victims feel like theyre retraumatized every time they walk in somewhere when there are people that have seen that video," he said.

He said social media and texting can escalate problems due to lack of non-verbal cues.

"A lot of times what happens is the person thats receiving the message thinks that the worst possible vocal intonation is associated with the message theyre receiving and that really can lead to fights," he said.

Dr. Wald said parents should monitor their teens' social media activity and talk to them about the risks involved with using it.

Colin Flaherty: Blackness as Disability – YouTube

Colin Flaherty reviews a 19JAN18 article by The College Fix by Kyle Perisic and discusses the concept of "blackness as disability"

[Below is the article from The College Fix]A black law professor argues that African Americans should embrace the notion that being black in America is a disability as a new legal strategy toward enacting protections for the black community against unconscious bias, stereotyping and structural inequality.

Kimani Paul-Emile, an associate professor of law at Fordham University and associate director of its law schools Center on Race, Law & Justice, argues that while Africans Americans might initially spurn the blackness as disability label, it can actually be a wise courtroom plan.

Paul-Emile argues that being disabled does not have the same extreme negative connotation as it did in the past, and whats more, disability law does not force plaintiffs to show that the harm theyve suffered was intentional, that discriminatory effect is almost always enough.

Rather than focusing on malicious intent, disability law accepts the impact of even neutral actions, policies, and programs, directly confronting the ways in which social structures, institutions, and norms can substantially limit a persons ability to perform a major life activity. It thus requires that even discrimination based on unacknowledged bias be addressed, Paul-Emile wrote in her article, a forthcoming piece in Georgetown Law Review excerpted by Fordham Law News.

With that, black people can claim blackness as disability as a remedial legal effort, harnessing this new paradigm to use the courts to require some sort of structural reforms that benefit the black community against what Paul-Emile contends is the limited opportunity African Americans face today due to unconscious bias, stereotyping and structural inequality.

The College Fix reached out to Paul-Emile for comment several times via email to ask her whether Hispanics or other minorities could also be labeled disabled, and what her opinion would be if a white person made the claim that black people are disabled. She did not respond.

Blackness in the United States has an independent disabling effect distinct from the effects of socioeconomic status, the law professor wrote.

Paul-Emile listed many reasons for black peoples perceived disabilities, including facing increased likelihood, relative to Whites, of living in poverty, attending failing schools, experiencing discrimination in housing, being denied a job interview, being stopped by the police, being killed during a routine police encounter, receiving inferior medical care, living in substandard conditions and in dangerous and/or polluted environments, being un- or underemployed, receiving longer prison sentences, and having a lower life expectancy.

Paul-Emile argues that understanding Blackness as disabling brings to the fore a surprising new approach to addressing discrimination and systemic inequality that has been hiding in plain sight: disability law.

The Americans with Disabilities Act defines disability as a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of such individual.

Blackness, of course, is not, by itself, an impairment, Paul-Emile writes.

However, disability law recognizes that many traits understood as disabling do not necessarily arise from a medical condition, but are instead simply traits that create disadvantage when combined with an inhospitable social or physical environment, Paul-Emile stated.

To recognize Blackness as a disability therefore requires us to acknowledge the ways in which racial hierarchies and White privilege persist and are embedded within these laws, policies, and practices such that they reify the very inequities they seek to eliminate.

Colin Flaherty: Home Robbery, Shooting, Death – YouTube

Colin Flaherty discusses the murder of Jack Price. He also shows some graphic on crime and murder statistics. I recommend reading article it fleshes it out more.

[Below is an article from fox4kc.com]BLUE SPRINGS, Mo. Two men are now facing charges Tuesday in the murder of a Blue Springs teenager, according Jackson County prosecutors.

Triston D. Withers, 19, and Daquan M. Tolefree, 20, have both been charged with one count of second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of 18-year-old Jack Price. Withers and Tolefree have also been charged with two counts of armed criminal action and one count of first-degree attempted robbery.

Daquan M. Tolefree and Triston D. Withers

Police responded to the fatal shooting around 9:30 p.m. Friday night at Applegate East Apartments on Vesper Street in Blue Springs where they found Price suffering from gunshot wounds. He was taken to a local hospital where he later died.

Police said Price was shot once in the chest and once in the wrist. There were three others in the home at the time, who were not shot.

Court documents say an anonymous witness told police Withers and Tolefree planned to rob the residence where Price was at for drugs.

According to court documents, one of the residents of the apartment planned to meet with someone to sell drugs. The person heard someone at the door and, thinking it was the person coming to buy drugs, opened it.

Witnesses told police two men in ski masks came into the apartment and pointed a gun at one persons head. That person yelled at Price to get a gun, and one of the two masked men shot Price, police said.

Tolefree told police he was with Withers when Withers allegedly shot Price. The two men then ran out of the apartment, according to police.

A witness identified one of the masked men as Withers. Police found shell casings and a cell phone on the homes back deck, and the phone number came back to Withers, prosecutors said Tuesday.

Price was the victim of Blue Springs third homicide in the last three months and the second teen to be shot and killed in less than one month in the Jackson County city.

Prosecutors have requested a $150,000 bond for both men. [END of Article]
