Deroy Murdock takes on the lies of Black Lives Matter in an op-ed piece in today's NY Post. Here are excerpts, edited by yours truly: "For every black man — criminal or innocent — killed by a cop, 40 black men were murdered by other black men. The, at most, 2.5 percent of the problem generates relentless rage. And, yet, it is rude-to-racist to mention 97.5 percent of the problem... The five deaths in NYC (at least four of them justified) total last year’s NYPD 'genocide' against black men. They equal 4.95 percent of Gotham’s 101 black-on-black murders in 2014. Other blacks are 20 times deadlier to black New Yorkers than is the NYPD." Kudos to Murdock, who will no doubt be attacked for espousing these ugly truths.
In another op-ed piece, George Will's goes after Bill O'Reilly's new book, Killing Reagan, dubbing it shoddy and untruthful. The main premise is that The Gipper's decline in mental health began immediately after he was shot just months into his presidency.
It's no surprise that President Obama put the kibosh on the Keystone Pipeline. He has always been an enemy of fossil fuels. I'm sure environmentalists are gloating, but it's not a victory for them. The oil will still be extracted and it will be delivered in ways -- rail, truck, boat -- potentially more hazardous than the pipeline. And the U.S. will not gain the jobs construction would have afforded.
My thanks to Adam, who bought Killing, and to Bad News Billy, who jumped on my remaining VHS and DVD inventory, and to the gentleman who purchased Suze Orman's The Money Class.
