Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani — (CBS screen grab)
Oh look, another old white man is going to help us all out by whitesplaining this whole black people dying at the hands of police business. Turns out that a lot of black people aren’t being murdered by cops at all, no, it’s just sensationalism, that’s all. The real culprits are…black people! Bet you’re all surprised, right?
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani dismissed concerns of African-Americans who are afraid that their children might become the next Alton Sterling or Philando Castile if they are stopped by a cop, saying they should teach their kids to fear other black children instead.
Appearing on Face The Nation, the former Republican politician and failed presidential candidate stated that black kids need to be more “respectful to the police.”
“If you want to protect black lives, then you got to protect black lives not just against police, which happens rarely, although with tremendous attention,” he claimed. “If you want to deal with this on the black side you’ve got to teach your children to be respectful to the police.”
“When you focus in on 1 percent of less than 1 percent of the murder that’s going on in America and you make it a national thing, and all of you in the media make it much bigger than the black kid who’s getting killed in Chicago every 14 hours, you treat it disproportionately,” he asserted.

Giuliani, however, claimed that police are still nothing to worry about within the black community.
“You’ve got to teach your children that the real danger to them is not the police,” he continued. “The real danger to them, 99 out of 100 times are other black kids who are going to kill them, that’s the way they’re going to die.”
Giuliani is also on record saying that BLM is racist, and he’s doubled down on that view:
(CNN) Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani stood by his recent comments Monday that the Black Lives Matter movement is “inherently racist.”
“It’s inherently racist because, number one, it divides us. … All lives matter: White lives, black lives, all lives,” he told Fox News on Monday. “Number two: Black Lives Matter never protests when every 14 hours somebody is killed in Chicago, probably 70-80% of the time (by) a black person. Where are they then? Where are they when a young black child is killed?”
Giuliani told CBS on Sunday that he thinks the activist movement, aimed at preventing violence toward the African-American community, exacerbated racial tensions by putting a target on the backs of police officers.
I have eight words for you, Mr. Giuliani: Go fuck yourself, and shut the fuck up.

Ooooo, black-on-black criiiiime!!! The one that happens because of the lack of opportunity and support, the one that happens because the black community just doesn’t trust the police enough to rely on them when they need the help. Good call, Mr Giuliani, you’re just so smart to have figured this out!
Actually, because this is the “Protect and Serve”
policestormtroopers doing the killing, I think it should be made into a national thing -- but wait, isn’t it also the stormtroopers’ job to protect these people from crime, to make sure that they don’t fall prey to each other? Or to other stormtroopers? Sounds like they’re doing a shit job, because don’t we hold those ‘boys in blue’ to a higher standard? New York City’s, Los Angeles’, Boston’s finest, isn’t that how they are referred to? If your ‘finest’ are acting like this, I think you need to re-check your dictionary.Fuck you, Giuliani.
Please, Rudy, explain to everyone what Philando Castile did wrong.
Mr. G., do gangbangers kill with government SANCTION?
Giuliani’s parenting method:
Child: Mom, cops scare me. I don’t want to die.
Mom: Oh, sweetheart, you don’t ever need to be afraid of police, they only ever do what’s right. Be polite, respect them, and kiss their ass, always.
Mom: What you really need to be afraid of are…black people. Oh yes, people who look just like you. They are evil, subhuman, and almost always criminals. You stay away from those thugs now.
When Giuliani dies, he’ll be a great hero and visionary leader and there will be a few oligarchs that will agree, “he licked our boots so well. there has never been another like Rudy. just kidding, Rudy Who?”
I’m pretty sure white people kill white people in America at a far greater rate than brown terrorists do.
So let us never hear a white man express outrage at Islamic terrorism again.
I am thinking there’s a simple solution:
have the cops kill a proportional number of white people!!! even the score!!!
I can haz social justics?
No, just sticks.
Saad @6: That would require some consistency in their thought process. We all know that the rules for white people are totally different. Because….reasons.
