Conservative Black Activist Upset That ‘Thugs’ Like Michael Brown Given Benefit Of The Doubt

Posted by | August 16, 2014 09:20 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


Jesse Lee Peterson of Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny went on Steve Malzberg’s radio show to call Michael Brown a “thug” just like Trayvon Martin.

“I’ve said from day one that Michael Brown is a thug,” Peterson declared, using as evidence “the fact that he was running from the cops, period, because good folks do not run from police officers, they follow their instructions.”

“I just think that it’s a shame,” he continued, “that in America today, that criminals are given the benefit of the doubt – especially black criminals because white criminals are not – but black criminals are given the benefit of the doubt and the police officers are the suspects. I don’t know what has happened to my country…

“Why we are protecting thugs?”

    To Mr Peterson:
    “So you were THERE in Ferguson to witness EVERYTHING when Michael Brown was gunned down? Wow…thanks for the clarification Mr Peterson. On second thought…maybe it’s YOU Mr Peterson who is a thug spewing out a venom of hate not even knowing what REALLY went down because you WEREN’T THERE. May you rot in hell!”

    “Innocent until proven guilty” is the way the justice system is supposed to work…though I’ll admit it rarely seems to work that way. We’re, all of us, supposed to be given the benefit of doubt.

      “PROVEN” being the operative term. Unfortunately thanks to a police officer killing him for “walking while black”, he never received the benefit of either a trial or a judgment.
      In many ways, the killing by the “officer who did not know he was a suspect” makes it even worse for the cop.
      Ferguson PD doubles down on f*king things up – even for their own.

        The cop who did the killing now feels the target on HIS back. Is it wrong that I’m smiling?!

    Why do I get the feeling that this guy is not completely comfortable in his own skin?

    • Carla Akins August 16th, 2014 at 11:27

      I find that to be a generous and astute observation.

    • BanditBasheert August 16th, 2014 at 13:07

      Perhaps he is wishing he had vitiligo?

    Gotta love how they always find the token. As usual all young black men are THUG’S WEARING HOODIES.

    I had no idea Steve Malzberg was still spreading his tiny-penis brand of hatred. He still looks pissed that Hannitty got the call from FOX to be the biggest racist in town. Poor Steve – always the bridesmaid.

    • BanditBasheert August 16th, 2014 at 13:07

      He’s a Con … tiny penises are a requirement when you are a righty hater.

    • burqa August 16th, 2014 at 22:03

      Before they took it off the air, I used to listen to Hannity occasionally and it was always a gas when Peterson would be on. Hannity would walk Peterson through a few major issues so Peterson could say exactly what other conservative pundits had said about a particular issue. There wouldn’t be much exploration of a topic, because Peterson is so shallow.
      The fun would come when Hannity would try to sound hip, by using outdated slang terms. For example:
      Hannity: “So is Bill Clinton a jive turkey?”
      Peterson: “Yes he is, and …”
      Hannity: “Solid.”

      By the way, speaking of Hannity, has he kept his word yet and been waterboarded?

      • Jake August 16th, 2014 at 22:09

        “By the way, speaking of Hannity, has he kept his word yet and been water boarded?”
        Don’t hold your breath (to coin a phrase) – Christopher Hitchens went to his grave waiting for Hannity to follow through on his worthless promise.

    Anyone who thinks that Black people are treated more fairly than white people in the justice system is a lunatic.

    I love rude – he always has something relevant to say – and he gets away with it….because it’s true.
    NOTHING matters except according to the Ferguson PD, Brown was shot for “being black and walking in the street”.

  13. R J August 16th, 2014 at 13:24

    There has been and always will be self hating blacks within the black community

    • Yenta August 16th, 2014 at 13:35

      Ben Carson comes to mind.

    It absolutely matters that he had just robbed a store. It shows his state of mind and he was likely desperate to subdue the police officer confronting him, makes perfect sense that he was shot. To all those that say it doesn’t matter, you need to go back to africa and build your own communities that you can rob and pillage when one of you commits a crime. All this hoopla for a criminal. All you people who think you are standing up for human rights cry the loudest when you are offended. Should have shot that monkey in the store BEFORE the cop had a chance to.

    • Chinese Democracy August 16th, 2014 at 15:14

      Witnesses saw the cop shoot a man standing with his hands up after he had been shot in the back running away

      THAT absolutely matters.. you keep forgetting that part

      • whatthe46 August 16th, 2014 at 19:11

        its not forgotten. it just doesn’t matter to them. furthermore, i appreciate it when people choose to call themselves “trayvon martin” because it to me suggest, they will forever remember him. and for that i thank them. never forget. never forget.

  16. whatthe46 August 16th, 2014 at 19:07

    man talk about self
    hate.

    Peterson needs to sit down and STFU. White criminals aren’t given the benefit of the doubt? Yeah, I’ll start believing this when the DOJ begins locking up the criminals on Wall St., most of whom are white males, who tanked the economy in 2008 and got away scot-free.
