From the moment Karmelo Anthony killed Austin Metcalf in front of dozens of witnesses, it was obvious he was guilty. Anthony brought a prohibited knife to a track meet, trespassed into the other team's tent, refused to leave, reached into his bag in a threatening manner, challenged people to fight him, brutally stabbed an unarmed 17-year-old who lightly shoved him in response, then ran away and tried to hide the murder weapon. Now, not too long ago in our country's history, somebody like Karmelo Anthony in that kind of situation would already be executed for his crime at this point and rightfully so. And yet, even with these facts in mind, the trial of Karmelo Anthony has revealed a slew of new details that underscore just how horrific and premeditated this murder was. It's not an overstatement to say that Anthony's defense has imploded far more quickly than anyone had anticipated. As bad as you thought this case was for Karmelo, it's much worse. The trial has also revealed that everybody in that tent, including Karmelo Anthony's friend, a defense witness in this case, understands that he was culpable. But before we get into the latest developments in the trial, and we'll cover it fairly and comprehensively, we need to establish at the outset that this trial isn't really about Karmelo Anthony in isolation. This trial is also about the $600,000 that was donated to Karmelo Anthony's defense mostly by black people, solely because he murdered a white teenager. This trial is about the hordes of black activists outside the courtroom, cheering for a murderer and endorsing his violent depraved behavior. Again, solely because he murdered a white teenager. It's also about our post 1960s legal system, which prohibits schools from punishing dangerous black students like Karmelo Anthony, and which forces white people to live around them. Today we're launching part 2 of our documentary on the civil rights movement on The Daily Wire called The Looting of America, which demonstrates in graphic detail exactly how we ended up in a country like this. We talk about how many white people came to be terrified in their own neighborhoods at schools, at track meets, everywhere because of court ordered busing, public housing policy, and so-called urban renewal efforts. We talk about the development of a fundamental unstated rule of modern society, a rule we're all familiar with and which Austin Metcalf broke, which states that you're supposed to tolerate anti-social behavior by a young black male, no matter how offensive it may be or else you'll end up dead. It sounds like an overstatement, but it's not. We're all expected to go about our lives with the understanding that if we dare to offend a young black man, we could end up in a body bag. As the writer Patrick Casey put it, Austin Metcalf's murder is particularly salient because almost everyone, regardless of race, has encountered a black person carrying out an anti-social act, cutting in line, mouthing off, blasting music on the subway, et cetera, which is accompanied by the implicit threat of violence. Most people don't want to share society with people who routinely violate public norms and are prepared to murder anyone who objects.
When you see the vagrant kicking trash cans down the street, you're supposed to walk the other way or else you might end up stabbed to death, like that left-wing activist in Brooklyn a few years ago.
Now, we talked about this story on the show at the time. The white guy made the mistake of getting up off his bench and engaging with this crazed black guy.
He should have done that obviously. He should have done the racist thing, quote unquote, and just cross the street. But he'd rather risk his life and die than violate the sacred rule. Along the same lines, when you see some unknown black athlete in your team's tent refusing to leave and acting belligerent, you're supposed to look the other way. If he ends up stealing your property, oh well, at least you're alive and not racist. John Derbyshire got fired from the National Review for saying this, but it's obviously true. Every white father needs to have the talk with his child about black violence and antisocial behavior. It's simply a fact that on average, black people are far more likely to resort to violence at the slightest provocation. This is how justice works in the hood. If they feel their honor is threatened or that they're being disrespected, in many cases, they will shoot or stab you without any hesitation. Now, it doesn't mean that all black people are violent, obviously. But the statistics are indisputable. If you tell a black guy on the subway to turn his music down, you're risking your life to a much, much greater degree than if you said the same thing to, say, a Chinese woman or a white man.
