Van Jones says it’s not the KKK, it’s ‘white liberals,’ blacks should fear

CNN makes everything about race, but Van Jones was on the panel and had a moment that went astray from the CNN talking points. He said it’s not the fringe KKK that black people should fear, it’s actually ‘white liberals.’

Jones pointed to the recent situation in Central Park, where a white liberal woman got “freaked out” by a black man birdwatching in the park after he asked her to place her dog on a leash.

In no time at all, she was near-hysterical, on a phone, telling the police she was threatened by an “African-American” man.

It seems racist to me too. She freaked out because a black bird watcher wanted her to leash her dog as required by park rules.

Racism isn’t by party affiliation, and it runs both ways.

When Van Jones has these moments of clear-headedness, it must drive CNN nuts. It’s not permissable speech.

I used to go shooting at a remote rural public range near a major land grant university, now closed due to a design flaw that prevented it from being idiot proofed. At least two times I was the only person there when two different black guys drove up and started to unload the car they drove in. One was alone and one had his 20 something son along. At first in both instances they acted like they thought I might load up and drive off, but I have been taught that character is not related to skin color. Also I’m a fairly big guy and, of course, I was armed with a side arm. In both cases I ended up in an hour or so long, interesting conversation with intelligent conservative human beings and learned a lot. One was a retired local policeman and one was an electrical engineer, who worked with sophisticated metering devices, both were rural locals just like me. A few liberal faculty types still shot at that time, but I suspect would have left immediately or done something stupid as all they saw was one or more scary black guys. I saw someone pretty much like myself out early on a Saturday morning for some weekend fun.

Hell where was he when Police in Salt Lake City are continuing their probe into an Aug. 11 shooting outside a 7-Eleven convenience store, when a black police officer, whom local media are referring to as “not white,” shot and killed 20-year-old Dillon Taylor, who was unarmed at the time,

Even Jesse Jackson knew it was other Blacks, that Blacks should fear the most.
