There's Inflammatory And Then There's *Inflammatory*

Just in case you wondered why the MSM was being unusually honest in its coverage of Birmingham's 'Movies And Machetes' Day, the answer is carefully buried in in paragraph 7 of the BBC's follow up - which is to say three paragraphs after the claim it's all racisss:

"But during the first 24 hours of the film over 25 significant incidents were reported and escalated to senior management in 16 separate cinemas," it said.

So, not actually just Birmingham then, after all.

Hey, it's probably just a coincidence how all these violent incidents keep happening at the same movie except I can't help noticing that the MSM and the left - but I repeat myself - seems a little more sensitive when it comes to speech from the right. Lest we forget, these people were outraged about use of the H-word:

He described her intervention as "humbug" and repeated the word again.

The SNP's Nicola Sturgeon said there was "a gaping moral vacuum where the office of prime minister used to be".

And then there was that time the MSM ran with ludicrous stories of Nigel Farage inspiring Brexiteer death squads to ethnically cleanse Essex...

So for those of you keeping score at home, the current rules are as follows:

• Question the ludicrous claim to victimhood of a deranged leftisit MP: Stoking up hate!
• Suggest Britain should leave the EU: Toxic rhetoric!
• Make A Movie Celebrating Violent Insanity:  Diversity Yo!

Needless to say, the BBC was fearless in holding the filmmaker to account for his exercise in social arson.... by quoting from his Instagram account without comment:

Blue Story's writer and director, Andrew Onwubolu, said Saturday's disturbance in Birmingham was "truly unfortunate".

In an Instagram post on Sunday, the rapper-turned-filmmaker wrote: "Sending love to all those involved in yesterday's violence at Star City in Birmingham.

"It's truly unfortunate that a small group of people can ruin things for everybody.

"Blue Story is a film about love not violence.

Yep: it's all about the love except somehow people keep seeing it as a call for homicidal madness.

So, you know, it's basically the Koran of movies.

Of course, there is one other reason why the BBC is busy claiming to be shocked - shocked - to find violence going on here:

The movie which was written by Andrew Onwubolu, a rapper and YouTuber who also goes by the monicker ‘Rapman’, was produced by Paramount and BBC films. 

Public Service broadcasting FTW!

Although admittedly it must be hard to turn down  the creative genius of a man who raps under the stage name 'Rapman'.

I guess it was a tough decision for this guy whether to go into music full-time or stick with his job at NASA.

All of which brings us back where we started: literally everything people on the right say is outrageously outrageous but meanwhile the BBC is blowing our license fees on an inner city version of 'Triumph of the Will'.

Why is anyone on the right still taking these people seriously?

On the plus side though, there is one moment of unintentional humour from Badmovieman. File this one under 'Missing Persons':

He said he wanted the audience to see past crime statistics and headlines about knife crime, to understand how a "good kid" can lose their way.

"They didn't come from child abuse or neglectful mothers. What kids go through in the school playground is so intense, it all starts there."

Everything Is Racisss....

An important philosophical question: if a tree falls over in a forest and there are no white guys around, is it still their fault?

Answer: shut up, you racist! 

Hence, this:

It came as the mother of an aspiring rapper gunned down at the weekend marched to the area occupied by her son's rival gang after a crisis meeting with Mr Khan...

Rhyhiem's mother blamed the police for her son's murder - saying they failed to protect him.

As usual, 'aspiring rapper' does not, in fact, mean a guy who sits at his desk for hours trying to find new words to rhyme with 'ho':

The teenager, who was the 62nd victim to be killed in the capital so far this year, is said to have been a member of the Moscow17 crew from Kennington who are involved in a violent feud with rivals Zone2 from nearby Peckham which has escalated through various YouTube videos.

Last year he appeared alongside Tim Westwood in a YouTube rap video where he was seen wearing a balaclava and a hoodie, waving a spliff around as he spoke about 'splashing' rivals - slang for stabbing someone repeatedly until they pour with blood - and bragged his crew is 'known for capping' its enemies which means shooting someone.

Shades of Theodore Dalrymple's line that as a prison doctor he often met people who claimed to have fallen in with the wrong crowd, but never met any member of the wrong crowd itself.

Also, I going to go out on a limb here, but I'm guessing 'the father was not available for comment'. 

Doubtless, next time the BBC interviews Sadiq Khan't they will ask him to distance himself from this loon, just like they would if Nigel Farage met with someone pushing crazy conspiracy theories about the Manchester bombing... right?

The thing is that Hoody McDead's Godmother makes an actually arguable point:

Yesterday his godmother Lacey Main called for YouTube to take responsibility in a packed public meeting on knife crime attended by local Labour MPs Harriet Hartman and Neil Coyle, along with Tottenham MP David Lammy and Sophie Linden, the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime.

She said: 'Why do they put the music on YouTube? Take it out. You have the authority, all of you sitting down there. Every time they put a video up - shut it down....

All the police know the gangs, they know about these videos, boasting and challenging each other and they know what they lead to...

'I have been telling police about this for three years but they do not work with YouTube, Snapchat, any of them. No one takes responsibility and there is blood in the streets.

Personally, I'm a free speech maximalist, but I'm thinking YouTube should be at least as hostile to homicidal morons as it is to, say, conservative videos.

I'm also pretty sure gang warfare predates the Internet - despite what the MSM would have you believe - and that having thugs out themselves online is not necessarily a bad thing for law enforcement. They probably get some good intelligence from it.

Come to think of it, I'm baffled leftists haven't worked out a way to try and screw this up.

.....

No, spoke too soon:

A generation of young people are being criminalised by a racist and illegal police database, it was claimed yesterday.

Campaigners accused forces of 'stigmatising' young black men with no history of violence or criminal convictions, sometimes on the strength of their social media posts.

It's a mystery why police would be interested in people boasting about committing serious crimes...

Amnesty International said officers are amassing swathes of data about often innocent teenagers that can destroy their life chances. 

As opposed to being hacked to death, which has no impact whatsoever.   

Kate Allen, of Amnesty International, called on regulators to act. 

'This police data sweeps up a much wider group of people than those involved in serious offending,' she said.

Police must be given the powers they need to do their job but they must do it in a way that does not discriminate against people because of the colour of their skin or how they express their identity.

Well, that much is true, except I can't actually find any evidence of Amnesia Intentional protesting about stuff like this.

Or this.

Or even this. 

Boasting about killing people is one thing, but a clear statement of Christian principles is going too far.

The New Left Is The Old Right

Good news everyone! The police have finally found a guy on Twitter they *don't* want to arrest. Apparently, sanity is slowly returning to British policing... unless there's something I'm missing?

Lest we forget, just three months ago, in the self-same force area,  there was this. Satirising a terrorist - who was apparently 'not a real Muslim' anyway - gets you the Apocalypse Now treatment, while frank support for racist violence is just a mild eccentricity, apparently.

I know what you're thinking: what if you wanted to split the difference and sing a song making fun of the rioters? Forget it: SJWs will let people try and gin up a riot with deranged conspiracy theories about police death squads, but they'll move like a shot to silence their critics.

They don't want equality, they want a new class system.

Technically, They Did Say They Were Against Inflammatory Rhetoric......

...They didn't say anything about inflamma-laboury rhetoric.

Apparently, Nigel Farage, Katie Hopkins and the Daily Mail are all responsible for some tool going crazy with his van, but the Guardian is just practicing responsible journalism when it comes out with stuff like this:

The family of a man who died following his arrest in London last week have demanded answers after the police watchdog said a postmortem contradicted their claim that he suffered a series of severe injuries.

So the evidence proves that they're lying liars, who lied, but the Guardian still makes them out to be concerned seekers after justice?

M'kay.

It's not even as if the left can claim not to understand the implications of what they're doing:

The watchdog said it was releasing those details because it was concerned about the “rapid spread of false and potentially inflammatory information” online about Da Costa’s condition.

I'd say we passed 'potentially inflammatory' sometime ago....

Then again, you can't say there isn't an element of poetic justice here: while the Guardian is trying to whip up an anti-police mob with phony baloney atrocity stories, the Filth themselves know who the real enemy is: losers on Facebook.

Maybe He Was Confused About The Whole 'Fraud Squad' Thing...

Hard to believe, but the Nigel Evans Show wasn't the strangest recent case involving Lancashire Police and a gay dude.

In an interview with his local paper, [Richard Kennedy] said: 'I heard a group of men shouting homophobic abuse at me. 'The next thing I know I was punched in the back of the head. I was violently assaulted - all because of my sexuality. 'I was covered in blood and had my face stamped on, causing my teeth to go into my gums. I might need surgery to amend the damage done. It’s absolutely disgraceful to violently attack someone because of who they are.' Kennedy went on: 'From all of this, all I want is awareness...I want people to see what can happen if you are as stupid as me to be alone on a night out'.

Yes, indeed, a fairly typical case of homophobic violence - which is to say, a hoax.

But today the teenager, who studies Contemporary Theatre and Performance at the University of Central Lancashire, admitted he made it all up.

Oh, my!

It takes more than being exposed as a Big Fat Liar to hash his mellow though:

After being shown CCTV of him tripping and falling, face-first, onto the pavement, Kennedy accepted that the 'utterly inhumane homophobic attack' he had talked about actually never happened.

Much as Bernie Madoff accepted that his bookkeeping wasn't all it could be, no doubt. Then again, who can blame him for his arrogance? It's not like he was going to face any consequences, was it?

Detective Inspector Paddy O’Neill said:... 'Having had oversight of the investigation... I accept his report was made in good faith.'

Say what?

This wasn't a guy who woke up with a bad case of UDI (Unidentified Drinking Injury) and decided to spin a heroic tale about it in the SU bar afterwards. He made an official complaint, complete with a graphic tale of violence, and triggered a police investigation. That's the very definition of wasting police time.

More to the point, was his tale of crazed homophobes meant to encourage community cohesion and mutual respect? Hell, no. In so far as it was a classic attempt to smear, mostly Christian, social conservatives it was what the left used to call 'Hate Speech', until approximately two seconds ago.

All of which is to return to the usual point: stop giving leftists the benefit of the doubt. This case isn't about noble intentions gone wrong, it was a set up right from the off and now everyone can see how corrupt the left is.

Sauce For The Goose...

Don't be shocked, but the people who are freaked out by the idea that a country GP might want to own a target pistol think maniacs with guns are just loveable jack-the-lads.

Personally, I loved the bit where he claimed the family had no experience of the legal process.

Yeah, I'll bet.

 Not that it isn't always fun to see a member of the predator class whine about how they've lost their faith in the legal system, but I'm noticing a certain double standard here. The Scumbag In Question talks a lot about the truth, but never gets around to dealing with any actual 'facts'. You have to look elsewhere to see what they're really pushing:

In the months after his death Mr Duggan's family, along with the police and MPs, received an anonymous letter claiming Mr Duggan had been set up. Mr Underwood said: "That letter alleged that a Trident officer had hatched a plan with an informant to arrange for Mark Duggan to pick up the gun from Kevin Hutchinson-Foster. "The allegation was that the informant said he could persuade Mark Duggan to pick up the gun and then the police could catch him. "What the letter goes on to suggest was that that would lead to Mr Duggan being shot dead as anything less than doing that would reveal the identity of the informant."

He was set up by being forced to carry a illegal fire arm round with him. Hey, it could happen to anyone. Who hasn't been visiting a friend and had them say 'if you're going down town, can you drop this uzi off for me'?

 Still, since the Guardian is apparently taking seriously anonymous letters alleging huge conspiracies (which may or may not have copied in Messers Sue, Grabbit & Runne), I guess that means they can't really dispute intelligence reports so specific they even named the firearms supplier?

I mean, that is kind of the issue here: the utterly demented nature of the modern left, which wants us to believe any old nonsense put out there by violent thugs but disregard anything from anyone who might conceivably vote conservative.

Meanwhile, in related news, no one from this family has yet been offered a column in the Guardian.

Victim of No Appearance

Further proof for my theory that, just like the Ultimate Question & Answer in the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, you can either know the felon's background or the victim's, but never the two at once.

Yep, two Afghanis - probably Mormons - stalk the streets and rape a 'woman'.

Really? Any particular type of woman? Anything in particular driving this choice of victim? Considering she was pulled off the street, there can only be a limited number of things that could have driven them to target this particular victim. It's not like they were driven by an irrational hatred of left-handed dental technicians.

Hey, in so far as this was a premeditated rape of an Infidel woman by Islamosavages, exactly as demanded by the Koran, this is a textbook case of a hate crime. This is what 'hate crime' means: the use of violence to intimidate members of the target demographic.

Needless to say, m'learned friends huffed and they puffed, but then they carefully steered round the elephant in the room on their way to Jokesentanceville:

Jailat Khan, of Beeston, Leeds, was ordered to be detained for five years and Shahzada Khan, of Leeds, was ordered to be detained for four years after both admitted kidnap and rape.

Sentencing the pair on Tuesday, Judge Christopher Batty said they had targeted a vulnerable woman alone in the city centre and the effect on her was 'immeasurable'.

Phew! Just think if it hadn't affected her so badly, he might have let them off with a light sentence. As it is, it now appears you can take part in a brutal rape and get exactly the same sentence Jeffrey Archer got for perjury.

Meanwhile, the femiloons have all gone quiet. Well, duh! They can sneer all they want at the Fifties, but compared to their craven toeing of the leftist line, the Stepford Wives look like Madonna.

Best Blowback Story Evah!

Hey, you'd think someone would do something about this PC garbage, wouldn't you?

Heh.

If not hoist by his own petard, Cameron has at least been hoist by a petard that he had assured us was a perfectly lovely petard that none but right-wing extremists could possibly object to.

After all, this is the central issue of the whole PC thing. True, these guys will never see eye-to-eye with Cameron but do these comments rise to the level of actual criminality?

Clearly, the only answer is to suspend The Dave for six months while a Board of Inquiry looks at this case.

Joking aside, this guy has a point, or rather two aspects of the same point. Cameron's apparent belief that his job is Comedian-in-Chief and that all his jokes boil down to sneering at people who aren't him speak to the same issue. Sure, The Dave keeps all but telling us he was born to rule, and how everyone who opposes him is a therefore clearly some kind of freak, but as George Bush Snr would say 'where's the vision thing'? How does he see his role as PM? What's he trying to achieve? Nada. He's much happier telling us how everyone else sucks than explaining just why we should trust him in power.

Liberalism: Your F2 Philosophy

As in 'Force or Fraud' - the only two ways by which liberals can successfully advance their squalid ideology. Or sometimes both at once.

And Finally...

If the right is so extreme, why do liberals have to lie about just who's really committing crimes?

Inflammatory

What I want to know is why, if it's the right that's stoopid, it's the left that keeps falling for obvious hoaxes.

Actually, one reason might be that truth has never been a big seller with the left. As Ross points out, when it comes to racial incidents, reality is purely incidental. Still, that does raise one important point.

The left has spent years whining about supposedly inflammatory language - even to the point of absurdity - but now we have a case of an extremist who really is trying to stir up trouble with a fraudulent atrocity story and it turns out the bad guys are the ones who are pointing that out. Apparently, inflammatory language is OK providing you don't use it to describe stuff that actually happened.

The Process Is The Punishment (Part 2404)

Hey, remember those evvvvvvvil raycists who abused innocent 'Asian' anti-war activists in Luton? Well, you never guess guess but....

Yep, released without charge. Which is to say arrested on bogus grounds, put through the mill, smeared in the press, then released just as soon as our PC PCs have to front up with some evidence. Who'd have thunk it?

Equally shocking: the same MSM which supplies us with the names of folks who aren't actually guilty of anything at all, are kind of coy when reporting on the possible motivations of rioting scumbags. Clearly, they must be a Mob of No Appearance. True, the distinctly non-diverse mob in the photo does hint at the truth, as does the cringingly dhimmi response from the Head, but from the MSM reporting you'd think the teacher in question was a Mathematician of No Affiliation. Guess his lessons must have been a real blast, eh?

Outrage D'Jour: Liberal Patriotism Edition

While libs ostentatiously hand-wring over whether or not arresting Mack the Knife will antagonise the yoof, some yutes don't qualify for the libs' special sensitivity program.

I guess this was offence under the 2006 Flag Offences (England) Act. Oops - I've just checked and, no matter how much they might want to, libs haven't yet succeeded in outlawing the English flag. Like I've said before, if the sight of some guy flying a flag sends you into a rage, it might not be the guy with the flag who's racist. That's goes double if it's a Chilean flag and you're in Santiago.

I Thought Liberals Didn't Like Fox Hunting ?

While the filth sneerily dismiss windows being put through as just one of them things, they don't mind putting the effort in to track down real criminals.

More Pretendey Hate Crimes

While British liberals are so short of actual hate crimes that they're reduced to inviting pyromaniacs round for tea, their Canadian counterparts have cut out the mentally-unstable middle man, and moved on up to straightforward auto-victimisation.

Liberal Smear Flames Out

See how restrained I've been not mentioning this guy ?

Kazmierczak, 27, who police said shot 21 people before shooting and killing himself, was an award-winning sociology student and a leader of a campus criminal justice group, according to school Web sites....

One of Kazmierczak's advisers said that she enjoyed having him as a student and that he was "a nice person; he was a nice kid."

"I found Steven to be a very committed student, extremely respectful of me as an instructor and adviser," said Jan Carter-Black, an assistant professor in the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign's School of Social Work

In 2006, Kazmierczak was a student at Northern Illinois, police said, where he worked on a graduate paper that described his interest in "corrections, political violence, and peace and social justice."

Well, technically speaking, he was interested in violence.

But no: it would be a cheap shot - as it were - to claim this proves that liberals' emphasis on hysterical denunciation of opponents and deranged conspiracy theories make these people more likely to engage in violence.

On the other hand, the left doesn't feel the same way about us - all of which brings me onto the question of the moment: Laban Tall, blogger or leader of a crazed arson cult ?

I'm guessing most folks are already up to speed on this, so all I have to say is that even by leftist standards it's impressive to have a smear which manages to combine lunacy, sleaze and outright humbuggery.

The first, and most important, point is that the narrative of 'brutal right-wing thugs attacking leftists' was a fraud right from the start. Plenty of these 'far right' atrocity stories sound bogus, but now we have proof this is a fraud, since we know exactly whodunnit. There couldn't have been any evidence that the 'right' was involved - we know who really set that fire - but the left tried to push the 'right-wing extremism' line anyway.

Hey, you can push Occam's razor too far, but when a centre catering to mentally-ill, drug-addicted criminals with convictions for arson gets torched, an honest observer does not normally leap to the conclusion that the aforementioned centre was the target of crazed extremists.

That's the second point: Laban's supposed extremism consisted of noting another case of leftist astroturfing. Of course it must be kind of embarrassing for those who claim to represent The People when the only people who'll speak up for them turn out to be on the payroll, but that doesn't make pointing that out extreme. Ditto, the public sector is meant to something other than a means for liberals to take in each other's washing (an AIDS centre with an 'artist in residence' - did they get confused about the whole 'drawing blood' thing ?)

Then there's the fact that the self-same liberals who claimed to deplore Laban's dreadful tactic of pointing out that liberal activists were pretending to be ordinary guys in the street, were also the only people in this story who really did use threatening language. Take the constant obsession with 'outing' Laban - presumably not so they could buy him lunch.

In other words, leftists lyingly tried to cast an isolated incident of public lunacy as an attack by the VRWC, and use this as an excuse to provoke violence against an innocent member of the public whose sole crime was to point out the left's tactic of trying to pass off hard left activists as ordinary members of the public.

These people are telling us who they are. Forget all the pious moralising about the horrors of life in the United KKKingdom, what really hashes their mellow is someone questioning their right to use the government as an ATM. Even then, it turns out the only way they can cobble together even a minimally plausible 'far right' atrocity story is to invite Archie the Arsonist round for tea and biscuits and unleaded.

The always-behind-the-curve MSM may still refer to Searchlight and their fellow thugs as 'anti-fascist', but here's their 'anti-fascism' in full flower: barmaids in Blackburn should be forced to pay to support their lifestyle, and if you don't like it, they'll try and hunt you down and kick your head in. Now why would anyone connect that world view to a propensity for violence ?
