Whoopi Goldberg: ‘Do We Need to See White People Also Get Beat Before Anybody Will Do Anything?’
https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2023...l-do-anything/
PAM KEY 30 Jan 2023
Whoopi Goldberg asked her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” if “white people” needed to be beaten by police before there was police reform.
Discussing the death of Tyre Nichols, Goldberg said, “Peaceful protests continued nationwide after Friday’s release of police footage showing officers savagely beating Tyre Nichols in Memphis. So far, five cops have been charged with second-degree murder and kidnapping. I asked this question way too many times at this table, but you know, when will the brutality finally lead to some police reform from the ground up? Because clearly, it doesn’t matter if it’s a white policeman or a black policeman. It is the problem with the policing itself. It seems things don’t make sense to people unless it’s somebody they can feel or they can recognize. Do we need to see white people also get beat before anybody will do anything? I’m not suggesting that. So don’t write us and tell me what a racist I am. I’m just asking, is that what people have to see in order to wake up and realize this affects us all?”
Co-host Hostin said, “I haven’t been able to watch the video because I’ve seen so many. As a mother of a black son who is 6’2″ and 20 years old, my worst nightmare is what is probably on that video.”
“It is not true that all creeds and cultures are equally assimilable in a First World nation born of England, Christianity, and Western civilization. Race, faith, ethnicity and history leave genetic fingerprints no ‘proposition nation’ can erase." -- Pat Buchanan
We were getting ready to do something.
People were actually starting to sit up and take notice at militarized police and the daily brutality dished out.
And then in Ferguson, you and your $#@! fellow travelers made it all about race, which got everybody back to their corners and easy to control.
If we had a real press in this country and not just Marxist Media Mouthpieces, you'd know who Tony Timpa was.
You'd also know that, per every 100,000 police interactions, whites are 2.2 times more likely than blacks to have deadly or unnecessary force used against them, than blacks.

At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?
White people are probably going to be beaten now because of what she said. She needs to be held responsible for inciting violence.

I need clarification from Whoopi on this. There are several ways to interpret it:Whoopi Goldberg: Do We Need to See White People Also Get Beat Before Anybody Will Do Anything
- Does Whoopi know that white people already get beat and killed by cops, or is she completely ignorant of that fact?
- Does Whoopi mean that beatings of white people should be shown on TV, and should no longer be censored or swept under the rug?
- Does Whoopi want an increase in beatings of white people by cops?

Usually when white people get beat up, other white people will shake their heads at what an idiot the criminal was, and then go about their business.
Making martyrs of thugs is some sort of cultural thing I guess.
(speaking in general here: not saying everyone who gets beat by cops is guilty or deserving of a beat down, nor is it a particularly desirable outcome in any case, nor am I trying to diminish the problem of police brutality, but yeah, not gonna burn down my neighborhood because some meth-head got shot, certainly not going to give them a mural or a golden casket)
And if that wasn't politically incorrect enough:
White people aren't worth as much in lawsuits. *mic drop*
(speaking specifically to the case of Tyre in Memphis, I watched the video(s) and it appears to be a clear-cut case of police brutality, and I should add that even Brandon Tatum managed to give an objective breakdown while discussing the video pointing out where he thinks the officers crossed the line and why they should go to jail, and he is usually VERY defensive of police actions, so yeah . . . there's that; however, if I lived in Memphis I'd try to vote every one of those city 'leaders' out of office and they'd still get re-elected by people who are outraged about this event, so there's that as well, and why I don't live in Memphis, because pretty much everyone there will still feed the hand that bites them come next election)

She is so racist she misses the whole point. Utterly useless.
Do something Danke
I think it is worth questioning if people actually vote for the people that win elections. It appears that it is not necessary to have a majority vote for you to win. I could be wrong but it seems that politics have been rigged probably since politics began so the premise that you voted for those people might not be true. Maybe all those democrat cities are just victims of a coup that has been years in the making.
Unfortunately for Whoopi Goldberg what she misses the point.
White innocent people are also getting beaten up by some cops unfortunately the media has no interests on reporting it because they are white or Euporean at least.
Part of the problem is that Officers have two roles:
1) Collect evidence
2) Arrest
Take away that 2nd role and these problems go away. Police officers should not have arrest powers. At least not any more than ordinary citizens.
An unarmed traffic stop should pretty much never lead to an arrest. This whole idea that people need to be forcefully arrested and carted off to jail every time there's a goddamn misdemeanor has just gotten ridiculously out of hand.

Maybe. And amazingly enough, she is one of the few people that has a platform where she could show those beatings, with a large audience. So she should feature a different white person getting killed by Police every week for the rest of the year, as an experiment to see if it changes anything.

Given her history, I would say that is an extraordinarily generous interpretation. Based on the history of her comments, I think it's more than fair to assume that she really believes that cops don't beat white people as they do black people and specifically Tyre Nichols.
I'm sure that if she's "asked to clarify" (i.e., given a chance to retract her sh!tty comment), she'd say that she meant that we need to see more video of cops beating white people (especially after the View's producers show her the actual statistics), but I would suspect that in her muddled, unsophisticated, clumsily racist mind, she really doesn't think that white people get beat by cops the way that black people do.
You're a nice person and you tend to ascribe to people the best of intentions. But if you actually listen to people, they'll tell you who they are. Listen to them.

I read it in just the opposite manner: "you privileged crackers are not going to do a damn thing until it's you being beat by cops."
But before she shot her mouth off, she should have known that white people get beat and shot by cops, at a greater rate than blacks.
But facts are not what shows like The View are after.
It's just a muck-raking echo chamber and propaganda organ aimed at and for, mostly white, leftist women.
But then again, on the other hand, I'm jaded, cynical and angry.

...and a litany of others...
But as we all well know, this question is not regarding race (although @osan made a particularly compelling argument in another thread)... in my opinion, the broader issue here is power dynamics, and poor training of police (and that there shouldn't be police at all. But I digress on that point).
I missed this post.
Since we are speaking frankly, shall I mention the subset of humanity that has made self loathing an international trademark and have seemed to have taught all of Western Civilization the trick, or is that verboten?
As we noted in the other thread regarding Freehold, I'm sure you are well aware of Asbury Park and what went on there. I spent two years of my festering youth in an urban prison/education camp known as Asbury Park HS this was 1978 and 1979, the rubble was still smoldering from massive riots that burned down half the town in 1972 IIRC. I won't bore with "glory days" stories, because they were not, much more like "A Boy Named Sue" than anything else...I grew up quick and I grew up mean.I would add that the left embarked upon a mad, rampaging campaign to sow self-hatred in the American black man. A fine example of this is one black calling another "n i g g g e r". I grew up in some $#@! 'hoods, at least one of them predominantly black. Back in the mid-60s if a kneegrow called another kneegrow "n i g g g e r", there was soon to ensue an energetic fight. Then all of a sudden, everyone is doing it with impunity, black on black.
Now, when I was in teacher training in NYC, we had to take all manner of psychology classes, two full year's worth. In at least one of them, the phenomenon of braak people calling each other by the dreaded "n-word" was justified and even lauded as black people "reclaiming" the term for themselves. A bigger load of utter bull$#@! would be difficult to imagine. The use of that moniker only helped to further foment the brands of self-hatred that is now standard equipment in the black "community". Another was, and remains, the notion that lighter skin is indicative of "better". I saw many examples of this in my two years teaching in ghetto schools in NYC. The most notable was near the end of my first year, perhaps May 84. Two braak girls got into a verbal tete-a-tete, one being notably lighter skinned than the other. At one point the darker girl made the fatal error of telling her more lightly complected opponent, "I'm better looking than you", to which the café-au-lait participant immediately retorted with "I'm better looking than your black, burned-up ass." It was over right there and then, the darker girl having been shut down, the classroom full of students going, "OOOOoooooo..." because every single person in that room had long ago bought into the lie so utterly and tacitly that it was tantamount to a gravity question, which is to say that it was no question at all. They all "knew" the lighter girl spoke an irrefutable truth and had publicly disemboweled her rival. I remember how badly I felt for the defeated party.
But I just had to comment on the "correctness" of that comment.
To this day I recall a particular insult in the same vein, that was heaped on the darker colored coloreds by lighter skinned ones: "Your ugly ass, monkey looking, mug" or variants.
But "niggger" was not thrown about much at all. Certainly not black on black that I recall, it was usually used by whites deliberately looking to provoke an unhinged and out of control response to start a fight or riot.
See my first comment.So this self-hate thing is very real among black people, and a certain subpopulation of whites (lefties). To dismiss it is tantamount to the dismissal of gravity on earth: it is self-evidently false, and underestimating its effect is similarly foolhardy. I've observed this very carefully for several decades and stand satisfied that it is not only real and deeply deleterious, but that it was artificially introduced by interests that do not coincide with a healthy and right-sized sense of self in the average man.
