Did you know that violent white men are never arrested for their actions? The Chicago Sun-Times’ Mary Mitchell is sure of it, if you aren’t. In another of her typically race baiting articles, Mitchell this time says that any time a white man is engaged in violent behavior, he is let off “to go on his merry way,” never to be “held accountable” for his actions. Race monger Mitchell is sure of this, see, because she saw a traffic scuffle between two “old white guys” where no arrests were made by Chicago police.
Two “old white guys” let go without arrest after a traffic altercation? Wow, case closed, racism exists, eh?
Mitchell claims she saw a traffic altercation where one white guy jumped from his car and verbally abused another white man in the car behind him. The Chicago police were called and, in the end, both drivers were told to “go on their merry way,” as Mitchell put it. No arrests were made. Then again, no real violence occurred, either.
Mitchell claims she and other witnesses were stunned.
Then, things fall apart. Honda is back in the car and drives away. What? We witnesses don’t understand. Shouldn’t this guy remain on the scene, or be escorted to the police station? Don’t the cops need to write up some kind of report or dispense some tickets for traffic violations? (Obstructing traffic, for starters.)… Then the cuffs are taken off of Explorer and he, too, is allowed to go on his merry way. No ticket. No arrest.
The police explain to Mitchell that the man accosted did not want to press charges, so the incident was over.
But, this didn’t stop Mitchell from imagining she saw racism in this incident… of course, Mitchell sees racism in everything under the sun. After explaining what she saw, Mitchell goes off on a tired-of-the-man-keeping-me-down rant that is just as silly as it is unsupported by any real facts.
Not equal justice:
This is American justice for white men. The other side of what is typically picked up by the media. Images of black and Latino men, young and old, who get yanked from their vehicles, strong-armed, handcuffed, frisked, and physically held, sometimes by the bottom of an officer’s shoe, on the street until they are loaded into a wagon and carted off to the nearest holding pen.
This is how white men are (not) held accountable for their actions. I can imagine how this whole scene would have been dealt with by authorities had the brawlers been men of color.
Not one of the cops I saw held their hand instinctively, protectively over their weapons, a hair trigger away. I suppose everyone knows that old white guys, even when they’re perps, are just not that scary.
“Justice for white men?”
Mitchell is the Sun-Times’ resident race monger, a large portion of her columns seem to have been dredged up from 1956, but this one is poor even by her low standards. I mean, is she serious that this anecdotal evidence is enough to state a thing as fact? All black men would be jailed in an exactly similar incident? Apparently so.
Did Mitchell offer any statistics to buttress her wild claim? Did she show any studies or police reports? Not a one. She just made the wild leap of logic to comply with her prejudices.
Her capper is a piece of work, too.
Still, I wouldn’t take any chances. Beware of an angry white man driving a Ford Explorer, who thinks, and now knows from experience, that he is entitled to do whatever he wants whenever he wants to whomever he wants with little fear that there’ll be consequences or repercussions.
In light of this line of “reasoning,” how many black athletes can we point to where this line applies? Has there not been many a black athlete who has repeatedly broken the law on many levels but felt that he was “entitled to do whatever he wants whenever he wants to whomever he wants with little fear that there’ll be consequences or repercussions”?
Should I look at the example of black athletes and make that an excuse to say that all black men can get away with anything they want, that they are never held accountable for their actions? If not, why not?
I wonder what race-monger Mitchell would say to that?

The immaturity and self-centeredness of the referred-to female writer is, to me, typical of the female mentality.
A grievous mistake was made when females were given voting privileges. There were many legitimate reasons to deny the befuddled, emotion-laden, irrational and non-logical dainty females the vote.
Even today, non-politically correct societies/cultures/countries are aware of the many dangers posed by daffy dames when those children-in-adult-bodies are given rights and privileges their innate nature is not capable of handling…. with a very few exceptions found among the females.
Note how in USA society the dames are so demanding of various rights and privileges but how often do you hear or read of the mental midgets insisting they also meet responsibilities?
While males have a bevy of responsibilities with often severe repercussions if the male does not meet those responsibilities note how females so-often bumble through life expecting society to giggle at female transgressions.
When I read the inane babbling and spewing of air-headed dizzy dames such as the Mitchell unit my beliefs that females should assume a lesser role in society is reinforced.
If one divorces the religious aspect of several mid-eastern countries and peek at their culture only it seems to me that those male-dominant cultures may actually be more advanced in many ways than “western” cultures.
Until males tire of the whimpering and whining and double-standards foisted upon us by befuddled broads I believe it is best to keep the daffy dames at arm’s length and ignore them as much as possible.
Since logical reasoning is usually wasted upon the dames, if confronted by an angered female, just smile and back away slowly then depart as soon as possible.
Glad I do not live close to Chicago and Mary Mitchell. She is the kind of color enhanced skin types that is a pest to society. I try to stay away from her kind – TROUBLE MAKERS and LIARS!
