THE DATA TELL A DIFFERENT STORY

“…The increase in gun homicides documented in the Emory University study is attributable almost exclusively to one factor: a nearly 60 percent increase in homicide fatalities among black men. Not over a period of many years–but in a little over one year.

And what year was that? 2020. And what happened in 2020? The death of George Floyd, and the subsequent revelation that black lives especially matter.

Yes, but not in the way intended. Not by a long shot. That death and revelation brought in its train myriad consequences. Defund the police. The war on cash bail and the release of numerous criminals. The demoralization of police, who were instructed explicitly and implicitly that arresting black male offenders was a career risk, and the subsequent surrender of the streets to the thugs. And on and on. (The release of many from jail because of COVID didn’t help either.)

This is as close to a natural experiment as can exist in social science. An exogenous shock–the death of one man–leads to a tectonic shift in law enforcement, especially with regards to a particular demographic. The result?: a hyperbolic increase in homicide rates in that demographic. (I note that the previous uptick observable in the chart in 2014 corresponds to the proto-Floyd event, the death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, MO, which was the catalyst for Black Lives Matter.)

This is as close to a definitive proof of causation as is possible in observational social science…”

“The economy seems to be slipping into a Carterian perfect economic storm: prices and interest rates jumping in unison, with lingering structural supply issues leaving shelves half-stocked.”

Deep thoughts from a liberal “thought leader”

Elon Musk Pulls a Reagan vs. Air Traffic Controllers Move by Firing Janitors Protesting at Twitter

“…It’s a Reaganesque move, showing that Musk has little to no time to waste on these matters as he deals with severe internal issues, namely how a former FBI official scrubbed internal documents detailing how Twitter censored the Hunter Biden laptop story. This person, James Baker, was formerly with the FBI’s general counsel. Before his role was discovered, Baker was Twitter’s deputy general counsel, and Musk fired him on Tuesday.

Mr. Baker was revealed to be part of the group reviewing the files about the social media giant’s Hunter Biden protocols, the first batch of which was reported by former Rolling Stone reporter Matt Taibbi last Friday. Baker was one of the main stooges who kept the Russian collusion hoax alive within the walls of the DOJ…”

“…A Chicago private school “dean of student life” bragged about having LGBTQ+ health staffers give children sex toys and teach “queer sex,” a video from Project Veritas reveals.

Joseph Bruno, the dean of student life at Francis W. Parker School, bragged in a video released by Project Veritas that during the school’s annual pride week, he  “had our LGBTQ+ Health Center come in [to the classroom]. They were passing around butt-plugs and dildos to my students.”

He went on to say that they discussed “queer sex” as well as “using lube versus using spit.” Bruno said that the children involved were between the ages of 14 and 18…”

The Experts™ Finally Discover Why ‘LGBTQ Youth’ Are Suicidal

“…It’s obviously just a major coincidence that suicidality increases when pop culture floods children’s corporate media programming to celebrate ‘Transgender Day of Visibility’ and libbed-out parents encourage their four-year-old children to ‘explore their genders.’ This is clearly not disorienting or confusing for children…”

LGBTQ is not normal. It is a tragedy. People afflicted should be helped and supported. People not afflicted should not be encouraged to pursue it, for that is insanity.
