DIVERSITY AND DISHONESTY KILLED JUSTINE DAMOND...
Once again, we find the New York Times, America’s equivalent of Pravda, racializing a story where the adjudicated facts appear to be clear and unambiguous…
Unlike the 1964 Kitty Genovese story where a 28-year-old woman was stabbed outside her apartment building in New York and where 38 witnesses saw or heard the attack and did nothing, this case involves 40-year-old Justine Ruszczyk Damond who called 911 twice to report a possible sexual assault in the ally behind her Minnesota home. Running outside barefoot and wearing her pajamas to speak with the responding officers, she was shot and killed by a responding police officer who fired a single shot from the front passenger seat across the driver and into the victim.
Racializing a tragedy…
A Black Officer, a White Woman, a Rare Murder Conviction. Is It ‘Hypocrisy,’ or Justice?
While many in the community said Mr. Noor should have been held accountable, they could not help but wonder what the outcome would have been if the races of the officer and the victim had been flipped. “This is an anomaly based on the race of the officer, and the race and affluence of the victim,” said Nekima Levy Armstrong, a civil rights lawyer and activist in Minneapolis. “The system treats African-Americans and white people differently, whether they are the victim in a police-involved shooting case or whether they are the police officer. This is absolutely outrageous.”
Even as activists and community leaders said that Ms. Ruszczyk deserved justice and expressed their condolences for her family, the verdict raised uncomfortable questions about the racial dynamics of the case.
Some saw a system and a society that was quick to embrace and sympathize with Ms. Ruszczyk, a benefit that black victims rarely enjoy. Others felt that Mr. Noor did not get the vocal support of the police establishment that they usually see in police-shooting cases and wondered whether this would deter black people from law enforcement careers.
“The only difference is that the officer involved in the shooting in this case happened to be a black Muslim immigrant, and the deceased person is a Caucasian lady,” said Waheid Siraach, a former police officer and a founder of the Somali-American Police Association. “People can put the two and two together.”

Bottom line…
Ask an activist or author whose very existence and income is dependent on finding racial disparity in life and you are sure to get a race-biased result. And you do not excuse bad behavior by pointing to other bad behavior.
Here we have another example of the New York Times, a progressive socialist democrat rag, creating a fake news story that interjects race into a police negligence case where race played no factor in the events that transpired in that alley on the night in question.
The New York Times, more like an American version of the Soviet Pravda, apparently is the propaganda arm of the fifth column that wants to destroy America from within on behalf of her enemies, both foreign and domestic.
We are so screwed.
