If Elder becomes governor, the state that led the charge against Trumpism could plunge into an alternate universe reminiscent of the ’90s, when California passed a racist three-strikes law and the anti-immigrant Proposition 187.
And:
Elder told The Times last week that he plans to “change the rhetoric about how bad the cops are.” Last year, he shared a graphic with so-called facts depicting Black people as murderous, echoing similar claims he’s made on air for decades: “Blacks kill 2x as many whites (500) as whites kill Blacks (250),” and “Blacks, 13% of pop., commit 50% of murders.”
Jeffrey Fagan, a law professor at Columbia University, said of these numbers: “This is an extraordinarily dishonest rendering.” He and other criminal experts say Black people don’t disproportionately victimize whites, nor are they more inclined toward violent crimes.
Oh, if a 'law professor' says it, it must be true.
On Twitter, she's hysterically screaming that he is a 'threat' to blacks.
BREAKING: Larry Elder’s views on Black crime were shaped by Jared Taylor, a well-known white supremacist he repeatedly cited in early writings. My new column on the threat he poses to California's Latinos and Black people archive
Like, you should really be listening to me about white supremacy and such as? I've been to like, the university, where they like told me all about the systemic structures and institutions and everything? And how you are an Uncle Tom with false consciousness? I mean, like know your place? I'm like trying to save you and the Africa?

So-called facts. It's brilliant. If they could debunk these numbers, then they would say "falsely claimed". If they could claim that it is not based on anything, they say "claimed without evidence", like they did with Trump saying that everyone would be able to get a vaccine by April.
If they can do none of the above, they say "so-called fact". Because even if you show that it is an actual fact, they can say: "hey, I never said that it wudn't!"
The scumbag is writing hitpieces left and right.

Forgive me for not taking her seriously about white supremacy lol.

Ha! Sadly that looks word for word like a typical post from a college lefty.

I told my cousin once that until he wants to have a serious discussion about crime stats don’t talk to me about racial matters.
Refusing to hold black people accountable for their own behavior is disproportionately harming everyone else.
