Sesame Place is a Philadelphia amusement park<\/a> for kids themed on the TV show Sesame Street<\/em>. One of its features is that local teenagers desperate for a few dollars dress up as characters in the TV show\u2014encase themselves in what must be stifling hot Muppet outfits, and parade past the kids and parents.<\/p>\n

Well, a few days ago in this parade, two little black girls visiting the park reached out to hug one of the dressed-up characters, a Sesame Street<\/em> regular named Rosita. To their chagrin, Rosita (quite possibly inadvertently) rebuffed their advances and went right on marching, notwithstanding she had just previously paused to high-five some white kids.<\/p>\n

National outrage of course ensued. I don\u2019t think any police stations or car dealerships were torched, but things got pretty bad. Lawsuits<\/u> are of course under way [Sesame Place Amusement Park Sued For Racial Discrimination<\/a>, <\/em>by Marc Griffin, Vibe, August 6<\/em>, 2022]<\/p>\n

The family of the little black girls (and their lawyers<\/a>) are looking for $25 million.<\/p>\n

It was left to TakiMag\u2019s anonymous \u201cThe Week That Perished\u201d<\/a><\/em> columnist David Cole\u2014I suspect it was he\u2014 to point out<\/a> what, so far as I am aware, no-one else noticed.<\/p>\n

This Rosita character, who so shamefully disrespected the little black girls, is Sesame Street\u2019s<\/em> first bilingual Muppet.<\/a><\/em> She\u2019s supposed to be Mexican.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll let David Cole wrap it up from there:<\/p>\n

With that, Sesame Street<\/em> provided its first useful lesson in fifty years.<\/p>\n

Yes, black Americans, the Rositas marching through our open borders don\u2019t like you, don\u2019t want to deal with you, and in the end will render you irrelevant.<\/p>\n

These days, that\u2019s a way more important lesson than counting to five cookies.<\/p>\n

Which brings me to \u201cCivil Rights.\u201d<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know about you, reader, but I\u2019m at the stage now where, when I hear the phrase \u201ccivil rights,\u201d I reach for my Mossberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In hopes of cooling down some before I proceed to my main commentary, let me first read you a quote from Christopher Caldwell<\/a>\u2018s brilliant<\/a> 2020 book The Age of Entitlement<\/em><\/a>:<\/p>\n

Civil rights never became self-regenerating as the Americans of 1964 had hoped it would. The legitimacy of civil rights legislation rested on the belief that it would be a transitional measure, leading to a stable, racially mixed society. Professing to oppose racial distinctions in the South, while introducing them on a nationwide basis via affirmative action and other programs, would have been illogical, hypocritical, and unjust if done on a permanent basis. The extra rights of protection and redress that minorities enjoyed were admissible as stopgaps\u2014not as permanent parts of the Constitution.<\/p>\n

Permanent, though, is what they became. In a world in which no-one was able to say what he really thought, American politics turned into a bizarre tacit bargain, like an embarrassing family secret kept among 300 million people. White people were supposed to console themselves that their superior economic standing somehow \u201ccompensated\u201d them for their inferior status as citizens. As their economic standing eroded, though, the consolation rang hollow and the compromise grew unstable.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Yep, that\u2019s where we are, the instability all around us and in plain sight. \u201cCivil Rights\u201d is an Anti-White grift.<\/p>\n

Come on, honestly: When you hear the expression \u201cCivil Rights Attorney,\u201d what comes to mind? What comes to my<\/em> mind is a black celebrity lawyer<\/a> in a $2,000 bespoke suit (pictured, Benjamin Crump<\/a>) going up against some corporation or city government for the ghetto lottery.<\/p>\n

Chief enforcer of the grift in the current administration: he sinister, ghoulish U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland<\/a>.<\/p>\n

No surprise to hear that on Thursday this week Comrade Garland brought Civil Rights charges against four Louisville police officers\u2014one of them a female, or whatever we\u2019re supposed to say nowadays\u2014involved in the March 2020 fatal shooting of black female\u2014birthing person, whatever\u2014Breonna Taylor.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Note that word \u201cinvolved.\u201d Of the four officers charged, only one was actually at the scene of the shooting. He fired his weapon\u2014responding to a shot from Ms. Taylor\u2019s boyfriend, which wounded a fellow officer\u2014but didn\u2019t kill Ms. Taylor. His bullets all went wild. He was criminally charged on that account, but was acquitted at trial. [Officer Acquitted of Endangering Breonna Taylor\u2019s Neighbors in Raid<\/a>, <\/em>by Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs, NYT, March 3, 2022]<\/p>\n

The cop who did<\/em> kill Ms. Taylor was dismissed from the police force. He didn\u2019t face any criminal charges, though, and he\u2019s now suing to get his job back. [ Ex-cop Myles Cosgrove, who fatally shot Breonna Taylor, sues to get his job back <\/a><\/em>.by Natalie O\u2019Neill, NY Post,<\/em> April 14, 2022]<\/p>\n

But main point: he\u2019s not one of the four that Comrade Garland is going after.<\/p>\n

So if only one of the Garland Four was present at the scene and fired his weapon, who are the other three? Well, the two males are alleged to have violated Ms. Taylor\u2019s civil rights by preparing a false search warrant affidavit<\/em>. The female allegedly conspired with them to falsify the warrant<\/em>. (Given the amount of drug dealing apparently going on in the Taylor household, there\u2019s no reason a warrant shouldn\u2019t have been issued.)<\/p>\n

"It seems that Breonna Taylor was knee-deep in the criminal enterprise of her sometime-boyfriend, Jamarcus Glover, who was running a massive drug operation, selling crack cocaine and fentanyl to the citizens of Louisville." – @AnnCoulter<\/a> https:\/\/t.co\/Slp8qFgzOC<\/a><\/p>\n
