We recently commemorated the 2nd anniversary of the Buffalo Neo-Nazi supermarket mass shooter who targeted black people.
And that was indeed a horrifying and evil crime.
The problem is that there’s a culture of silence when it comes to things like this.
A New Jersey man, who was formerly a U.S. Marine, was arrested and charged Friday with threatening to kill white people for their perceived privilege.
Joshua Cobb told the FBI at a California base he wanted to shoot up a New Jersey gym, grocery store or wealthy white area, according to a press release. He allegedly cited a desire for the world to “feel” what he was feeling.
Cobb also posted his plans on a social media platform, telling other users in 2022 he would carry out a mass shooting the following year on a holiday “important” to white people, according to the FBI.
“I want to cause mayhem on the white community. The reason i specifically want to target white people is because as a black male, they will NEVER understand my struggles. Same way I will never understand their struggles, but I don’t care to,” he purportedly wrote. “I want to erase them. All of them really, but in this case as many as I possibly can.”
If he hadn’t become somewhat explicit, Cobb’s rants would have fit in nicely at Harvard or Yale or any critical race theory academic environment where racist rants, no matter how deranged, are treated like poetry.
“We are all beautiful (except white people, they are full of, and made of shit),” Baraka wrote in ‘A School of Prayer’. This was about the nicest thing that he ever said about white people.
“Come up, black dada / nihilismus. Rape the white girls. Rape / their fathers. Cut the mothers’ throats,” the black nationalist raved in.another poem.
In a poem published by his own Jihad Press, Baraka fantasized about a race war, “cracker you may be wood and fire is what you need… n___r you might be fire and need to be burn some wood” and declared that, “Allah speaks in and thru me now.”
That’s Amiri Baraka, the former poet laureate of New Jersey who showed up in the infamous AP black history course (and not as a cautionary tale.)
And he’s far from alone.
If Cobb had left out stuff like this, “It’s all a f*cking game and you all are going to die. I currently lack the means necessary to kill as many as I intend to but one day I will have the available resources (finance) to purchase the appropriate weaponry for my killing(s)”, he too could have had his own book and a MacArthur genius grant.
Just ask Ta-Nehisi Coates.
“Between the World and Me” takes his self-righteous bloviating about “black bodies” constantly being victimized by the police, capitalism and people who criticize his writing, and turns it into a book. It’s a “letter to his son” (but available to everyone for only 24 bucks) about an America where black people are still victimized by the slavery and segregation of a white supremacy that has never gone away.
Any interaction between Coates and a white person becomes invested with racial tension. A white woman pushes his son on an elevator and to Coates; it’s a case of her invoking her “right over the body of my son.” “Between the World and Me” is a fountain of such pseudo-Marxist legalisms in which “black bodies” are the engines of commerce and culture on which a vast evil white conspiracy squats.
Coates, the son of a Black Panther, has the gift of beginning with any random premise and concluding with his own racial victimhood. Coates blamed “Segregation” for his difficulty learning French. He accused the New Republic of “neo-Dixiecratism” and claimed that he “could never work at TNR”. When a cab in Amsterdam failed to pick him up, it was somehow Paul Ryan’s fault.
The world of “Between the World and Me” is a cramped place in which white people are forever spindling, exploiting and mutilating black bodies whether it’s through slavery or elevator pushing.
Racism of the right sort is very profitable. If Cobb had gotten an agent, he wouldn’t be in trouble with the law.

He could move to Nigeria and become a king.
Beez says
Or prince. Plenty of demand for those over there, or so I’ve heard.
Jeff Bargholz says
When it comes to black guys and elevators, I notice they’re always the assholes who try to rush in before other people get out.
I’d love to bitch slap Coates AND his son.
And Cobb needs to be killed before he murders innocent people.
Kasandra says
Think there will be a “hate crime” enhancement if and when he’s sentenced? Me neither.
Kynarion Hellenis says
He obviously did not belong in the Marines. He was all snowflakey about being misunderstood and unable to distinguish between his feelings and reality.
SPURWING PLOVER says
Try him in any State Except New York there he would be Freed and to do what he wants that’s why Arizona refuses to extradite a Convict to the State of New York
Chaya says
Arizona has its own problems. Corrupt elections and so really nutty officials.
Eli Truax says
Literally the condensed black version of Mein Kampf
Chris Shugart says
“Understand me, or I will kill you.” When parody becomes truth. Where’s National Lampoon when you need them?
Beez says
His scribblings faintly resemble those of BO’s fathe r …, I mean, first mentor,” Frank Marshall Davis.
Laine says
White leftists/Dems (but I repeat myself) think that weaponizing blacks against Repub whites will not redound on them. They incite black entitlement and bitterness using schools from K through the Poison Ivies. How stupid are white Dems to think that the hatred they’ve fed won’t generalize to ALL whites including their own foolish selves? Like the sorcerer’s apprentice, they have awakened a force they cannot control.
