The Seattle silence about black verses black crime
Started: 7 3 2023

Opinion / Criticism
As reported in the local news there has been many shootings involving young black men for varied reasons.
The not so shocking response has been silence from the democrat party / Seattle progressives about not only gang shootings but the varied crimes done by blacks or done to blacks.
This silence has of course forced me to speak up not merely as a White man but a local.
The local news channels such as Komo, Kiro, King5 etc have nearly nightly news stories about young black people getting shot and wounded or shot and killed. As a local, a guy who was born and raised in this area I am jaded like most locals to these horrors and crimes. The online commentary by supposed locals is unsurprising. Particularly praising the deaths of strangers from the black community
There is no reason to celebrate the deaths of those who come from other races. But the bigotry is understandable, the black community is not the norm here but ‘transplants’ who come from States with a longer and larger black historic presence than good ole Washington. Those who migrate here are either lumped into the generalizations’ of good guy or bad guy. The good guys get jobs, contribute to their neighborhoods and cities by not causing trouble and conforming to life within our shared law system. Those who are the bad guys are those black folks who come from heavily gang centric / poor areas of the United States who have the ‘hood’ attitude where they mistreat those around them and use the leftist victimhood mentality dealing with non black races.
Even if there are black locals who have been in this area for many years they are thought of as strangers by most small town locals who have mixed reactions to non white races.
As locals with white / European or any other skin color we view non white / European races either with alarm or the understanding that as long as they follow the Governments laws and aren’t causing trouble there is no issue with them being in our cities, neighborhoods etc. Well beyond merely the white race the many Indian tribes donot welcome blacks or Mexicans to the area because they were here long before the state of Washington was created.
Just as disturbing is the conservative / republican silence on black vs. black crimes and no added solutions to these problems.
All the while black families either have to get help with mounting hospital bills for their injured kin or are burying their son and daughter without solutions from either political faction.
Is my commentary surprising? It should be.
I am one of those odd balls who think that all races / communities could solve their cultural problems with hard work, education for the trades and moral / ethical teaching.
But what do we have in the Seattle area? Piss poor leftist teaching for all races, where it is easier to be racist against each other and promote us verses them attitudes.
And then we all wonder why our cities or towns are falling apart.
How did I come to this conclusion?
Let’s start with marxist blm attributes.
Rioting, crime are not positive activities for neighborhoods or cities it causes companies to move out of the area.
Remember LA? Chicago?
Shootings donot make people want to goto black neighborhoods, businesses and so forth it makes non black races stay out of the area.
Gangs, thuggery, graffiti, donot make non black people want to visit areas with black or other history.
Black politicians’ who promote racism against White, Jews, Asians are not any better than the old kkk
Black crime stories are used by white racists’ & others as propaganda that cause fear mongering not merely towards those in the white race but Asians, Jews and many others who are either legal or illegal immigrants.
And this is ok with everyone? No. It shouldn’t be…
As I have been paying attention to the local news I’ve noticed that the varied left leaning politicians’ & the local BLM are silent on these crimes.
And for that a lot of black young people are dying for no good reason.
The reasons are various:
Drug sales or drug crimes
Vendettas
Domestic violence / lovers Quarles
Gang Turf wars
Bullying
Online, in person disrespect
Power trips due to having a gun and the willingness to use it
Meanwhile there is plenty of left leaning blame to go around because in the mentality of the localized leftist black community it is lame accusation of ‘white supremacy’ that causes the problems they face. And while there is a partial argument in that accusation due to Seattle’s past.

The crimes, deaths and related horrors are solely by their own black race.
As a local I have thought of some solutions not only for the black race but all races within the Washington state area. Such as:
*Blacks need greater education to keep up with employers in Washington state & the USA. In doing so they can get the higher paid jobs and not rely on race based arguments from the lefties. In getting that education they can either work within Americas systems that are in place and rely on experience and skill to get the larger paychecks to stay within neighborhoods or build more black orientated neighborhoods, employment and not rely on limited historical pasts.
================================
*Educate their youth in higher paying trade jobs like welders, electricians, plumbers, Carpenters, Auto repairs / mechanics, and other blue collar jobs…
============================================
*Educate their youth in computer programming, coding, and other higher technology training.
====================================
*IF it is a cultural issue about violence then their own community should figure out ways to re-educate their youth to not use guns for the sake of violence and criminality. Guns are a self defense tool not for offensive purposes.
================================================
*To counter violence the black community should have moral / ethical training for their youth. Added to that self defense training for their survival.
=========================================================
*Gentrification is a common theme that American blacks donot like, as it erases their presences’ in varied cities. However these same complainers are unwilling or unable to maintain the buildings and over all ‘curb appeal’ to make their businesses or neighborhoods look inviting to visit.
———————-
But instead of solutions the varied black leftists use buss words and accusations to deflect from their many cultural problems with crappy excuses like.
“White Supremacy” (WS)
Poverty
Or other excuses where they aren’t willingly trying to stop the insanity in their home communities / neighborhoods.
In order to be a actual ‘*white supremist’ country we would have utter disregard for black anything. The entire black race could be shipped off back to Africa, exterminated or enslaved politically with crappy jobs, bad healthcare, food and more.
But what do we actually have? Black individuals have high positions in Government. This includes being former President of the USA. Every black person’s can easily go buy whatever they want. Live wherever they want as long as they can afford their needs like everyone else.
There’s plenty of non white politicians’ in both parties. And yet we have “*WS”?
As I’ve mentioned many times I am married to a Filipina. We have been married for 20 years and have 3 teens with her. Had the USA been “*WS” I could not marry outside of my race and she would not have been allowed into the USA. And yet we are a “*WS” nation?
Some answers can start with the black community itself where they can fix the crime and gang problems by getting rid of a culture that allows for gangs and crime.
This starts by getting rid of leftist / marxist victimhood teachings and accept that they have power over their lives.
While acknowledging the evils of the past that what happened to their black ancestry no longer applies to them as individuals and families.
Black families could start by gathering their young people into community based programs to teach trade education to their young to earn money and have a better life.
Some may accuse me of being a racist, a bigot and I suppose I may look like that. However I am not. I am just 1 guy living his life surrounded by strangers.
And if I am wrong why is it that I’m not the only one who noticed that all races could solve their problems without political interference.

There is no doubt that there are likely many organizations’ with the idea to slow or stop gang violence in the black community. And whom should promote them?
I would suggest the many black conservatives to promote such organizations or put some together to ease and eventually stop violence in the black community. And then as that is worked upon added the same ideology / doctrine to stop violence in the many other communities that are plagued by gangs and cartels.
However that is up to each racial community not people like me.
