Re: Karmelo Anthony and his defenders:

Obviously there is some blind black tribal loyalty involved, but I think there’s something else and arguably worse.

The facts seem to be this: Karmelo invaded another track team’s tent. He did this to assert dominance. When asked to leave, he issued threats: “touch me and see what happens.” After repeatedly telling him that he was not welcome, and in response to provocation, Austin Metcalf pushed him, trying to get him to comply with basic social norms. Karmelo, no doubt delighted that he had now received permission for escalation under his own code, stabbed Austin to death.

The black defenders of Karmelo believe this is how society should operate: an endless war of all against all to assert dominance, escalating when one’s assertions are rebuffed. They’re mad that the justice system got involved, because in their minds this is the proper way to conduct business: omnipresent dominance signaling, inevitably leading to violence.

They genuinely don’t understand that other people don’t operate according to those rules. And they certainly don’t understand that our rules, by drastically reducing friction and needless cost, are the very reason for the disparities in group power they complain about. We are polite internally and can thus exert greater collective power externally. A few Karmelos in the mix destroys this system.

But they don’t care that running things their way would be the end of civilization, the end of their cell phones and EBT and air conditioning, because they don’t understand it. They don’t understand anything about the modern world. They are lost here, confused. This state of affairs is not sustainable.

Jonathan Pettigrew, a 41-year-old Black father of SEVEN, was shot to death on a BX36 bus in the Bronx yesterday.

Pettigrew was murdered for the crime of telling some deranged young Black male to stop yelling on the phone to whoever he was arguing with, as he was disturbing other passengers on the bus.

Jonathan Pettigrew never made it home to his family because the animal who killed him felt entitled to "keeping it real" with his disgusting anti-social behavior, and fuck anyone who tries to enforce boundaries.

Jonathan Pettigrew's murderer is NO different than Karmelo Anthony.

Jonathan Pettigrew is NO different than Austin Metcalf.

Karmelo Anthony received a THIRTY-FIVE YEAR sentence and will be eligible for parole after SEVENTEEN.

Seeing as that boy should have received the death penalty, I'd say that sentence WAS "grace."

[The Moderate Case @TheModerateCase]

Let me get this straight…

Apparently, an ICE agent being struck by a car is not enough to create reasonable fear of serious bodily harm.

But Karmelo Anthony being shoved during a confrontation he allegedly escalated, going on to say, “touch me and see what happens,” where he was then pushed, is enough to justify pulling a knife and stabbing someone in the chest?

That isn’t a consistent self-defense standard. That’s a tribal and political standard.

Either imminent serious bodily harm matters, or it doesn’t. The logic isn’t logic’ing.

Your honor, I know a high schooler was violently murdered in public, but have you considered the plight of black women?

[Amber Duke @ambermarieduke]

It’s worth highlighting that Karmelo Anthony’s defense attorney promoted this dynamic when he basically accused the prosecution’s witnesses of lying to protect “their teammate, their brother, their leader.”

Jonathan Pettigrew was just murdered on a bus in NYC on his way to pick up his young daughter after asking a rider to lower the volume on the phone

Police and media are only identifying the suspect as a “teen with a white shirt”

Austin Metcalf's dad, Jeff, just unloaded on Karmelo Anthony.
"We were robbed, don't look down, of all of these things."
"I said from day one, this was never about race, please don't politicize it. But what did you choose to do, both. It's about right and wrong. We're all humans. We all bleed the same color.
"You're free to make choices all you want, but you're not free from those consequences. You will face those consequences starting today." 
"People think that grief is sadness but its not. IT"S RAGE!!! (slamming his hands on the table.) Pure unfiltered rage,' he shouts.
"You failed your parents, your failed yourself and you failed society, You don't belong in this community," he says to Karmelo.
"You're going to prison, You can't even look me in the eyes right now but you can stab my fu**ing son in the heart."

[Payton Alexander @AlexanderPayton]

This is what Karmelo Anthony was doing. This is what playing music on the subway without headphones means. This is what getting in someone’s way on the escalator or elevator means. It’s always a dare. It’s a challenge. It’s getting in someone’s face and hoping they brush up against you enough to swing. It’s a deliberate provocation, and the pattern appears over and over again.

[The Dank Knight 🦇 @capeandcowell]

Yeah the Metcalf’s never lived in agony having to worry about their son becoming a murderous thug. That’s true.

BREAKING: Ohio secretly gave 100% sales tax breaks, lasting up to 40 years, to tech giants for data centers, per https://t.co/9Wr6itu0Jb.

The exemptions—signed by Gov. Kasich—give Google, Meta and Amazon at least $600 million each.

Legislators say the contracts can't be undone.

Young men receiving life in prison simply for the “crime” of keeping it real, standing on business, stabbing random people in the heart at a track meet

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

This is so devastating. Imagine being a black parent tonight. How do you protect your children? If they go out and stab just one person, they might go to prison. It’s like a black man in America can’t even murder anyone anymore. Unimaginable. Jim Crow all over again. I’m furious.
