Yesterday it was Al Sharpton holding the country hostage to his racist extortion demands; today it's Def Jam Records owner Russell Simmons:
Russell Simmons, co-founder of Def Jam Recordings, appeared on CNN last night on Out Front with Erin Burnett to warn there are more protests coming if “demands” are not met.
We are seeing the beginning of the end of police policing the police, he added.
No, Mr. Simmons, actually, we're seeing the beginning of the end of unpoliticized law enforcement, and therefore, true justice right along with it. Which is what you're demanding.
“On Wednesday, we are going to ask for indictments and list of achievable demands.” (“We” referring to high profile celebrities and athletes that share Simmons’ beliefs.)
“And America has not seen protests like those that are coming if justice doesn’t start to come down,” warned Simmons.
Isn't riot incitement itself a crime? And extortion? The answer is, it used to be, just as "justice" didn't used to mean "revenge". But now? With a POTUS who is right there with Sharpie and Simmons? I'd like to believe, as Warner Todd Huston suggests, that a few weeks from now we'll be laughing over what turned out to be their empty threats. But how long has it been since the Ferguson grand jury announcement? Three weeks? And the nationwide civil unrest hasn't abated yet. And, again, given that the White House is sponsoring it, there's no reason not to expect that the Ferguson Insurrection isn't going to continue escalating.
Just look at the respective carrots and sticks for "correct" and "incorrect" behavior:
Dorian Johnson, the “witness” who perjured himself in the media by claiming that Ferguson teenager Mike Brown had his “hands up” when he was shot by a city cop has now been hired by the city of St. Louis, a new report reveals. The City of St. Louis has confirmed that it hired Johnson through the city’s Agency on Training and Employment using funds provided by a state grant. The job is listed as a temporary job paying $8.50 per hour, but no further details about the work was reported by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Okay, it isn't much, and Mr. Johnson won't be getting rich off of it, but the quid pro quo is awfully difficult to miss. Ditto the in-kind contribution St. Louis made to Mr. Johnson by not even arresting him for his role in Michael Brown's convenience store robbery.
And then there's the (big) sticks:
Smith College President Kathleen McCartney sent out an email to students and administrators in which she inadvertently said “all lives matter.” Her message provoked the ire of racebaiters who don’t want the phrase “black lives matter” to become a message of inclusion.
McCartney was told in no uncertain terms that she isn’t allowed to say “all lives matter,” because only black lives matter to these [extreme]ists.
In the original email, obtained by Campus Reform, Kathleen McCartney used “all lives matter” in the email detailing the “struggle” and “hurt” the Smith community was experiencing following the non-indictment of Officer Darren Wilson, who fatally shot teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.
“We gather in vigil, we raise our voices in protest; yet we wake again to news of violence that reminds us, painfully, of the stark reality of racial injustice,” McCartney wrote.
McCartney also announced the college’s plan to institute a new Chief Diversity Officer to support programs and conversations to advance social justice.
However, it was the subject line that had Smith students up in arms. Students took to social media to chastise McCartney, blaming her skin color for her lack of understanding.
“No, Kathy. Please do not send out an email saying ‘All lives matter.’ This isn’t about everyone, this is about black lives,” Sophia Buchanan, a Smith student, said on Twitter.
And there it is. We've been pointing that attitude out for weeks now, and Ms. Buchanan has publicly and proudly demonstrated that we were neither hyperbolizing nor exaggerating. "Social justice" means burning down "white" America and holding it hostage to whatever ludicrously extravagant demands barbarians like her are incited to make by the Insurrectionist-in-Chief - ironically, the very attitude that precipitated the Michael Brown-Darren Wilson confrontation in the first place. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy fueled by an indoctrinated anti-white hate and bigotry every bit as virulent as ever motivated the KKK to hate African-Americans with similar passion.
Kathy McCartney is willing to give the racist lynch mob everything they want, and the mob calls her a racist for using the language of "inclusivity" that has been the staple of the multi-culti Left for years. Which illustrates what we've always known: multiculturalism isn't about "equality," isn't about "fairness," isn't about "justice," but about minority supremacism and relegating white Americans to second class citizen status.
It's about revenge.
And this is an ultimatum to which American society cannot afford to yield. Which means what I've been saying ever since the midterm elections: The next two years are going to be uglier than anybody ever imagined.
