If you wanted to see a respectable college riot, you had to have been at the black Virginia State University a few weeks before the University of Delaware pajama party masquerading as a riot. There, hundreds of black students roamed the campus -- fighting, destroying property. One person was stabbed.614
Some of it on video. One student told the CBS affiliate “it was nothing but chaos.” Another told 8 News he saw a “riot, just commotion.” Another said the mob was moving from one area of the campus to another, leaving destruction in its wake. Finally, police locked down the entire campus for 12 hours.
A warrant has been issued for the alleged stabber. As for the others, no one was arrested. Nothing, so far, from ABC newshound Diane Sawyer.
Neither was the University of Delaware mayhem anything like the huge brawl featuring 200 black students at a party at Central State University in Ohio in May 2012. On video.615
Several police officers were attacked. Two students went to the hospital. One person was arrested.
Neither did the Delaware mayhem compare to the huge fight at the black Livingston College in North Carolina in the Spring of 2013. There, local news stations report 300 black people fought and destroyed property at a campus party. Two people were arrested.616
Neither did the Delaware partygoers resemble the crowd at a University of Southern California party in the Spring of 2013. There, 400 black students did not like it when a police officer showed up at 2 a.m. to tell them their party had to end. Or least the music did.
They ignored the cop. Then started throwing bottles and rocks at him. Soon after 80 police were in the streets in riot gear. The party ended after a few people were forcibly detained. Six black people were arrested.
At USC, no one got banned. Instead, school officials held a community forum to hear students berate them for racial profiling. Makiah Green is a USC student who put it all in perspective in an article called the Plight of Black Students at USC. Spoiler alert: The school and police were picking on the blameless students.617
I had flashbacks to an era I wasn’t even alive to suffer through. I was too scared to go outside, legitimately fearing that an officer would see me and arrest me for being Black and inquisitive.
It is inexpressibly disheartening to hear fellow students recount horror stories of police brutality two weeks away from being among the first in my family to graduate from a four-year university. To know that my college degree holds no weight in the face of institutional racism and discrimination is sobering.
Today, despite the backbreaking, soul-sapping institutional racism at USC, Makiah managed to overcome: She is a graduate student in a professional writing program. At USC. I hope she survives.
In most of the examples of black mob violence documented in White Girl Bleed a Lot, it is rare when anyone gets arrested. At one Philadelphia high school, the principal said she did not report large scale black mob violence directed at Asian students over a several year period because she did not want to “criminalize” the students.
In Rochester, New York, they send buses to take the rioters home.
In Chicago 2013, nine black people were arrested for attacking two white people with a “sockful of locks” in a commuter train crowded with witnesses. A staffer for district attorney later dropped all charges.
In New Haven in October 2013, 500 black people attending an “All Black Affair” fought in and out of the party. And when they finished in front of one venue, they moved to another, where police had to stop the violence there. Then another, where police had to stop the violence there.618
No one was arrested. Police said they were focusing on crowd control instead.
At a Baltimore skating rink, a mob of as many as 900 black people fought and destroyed property in and out of the facility, including several nearby businesses. This was just one of the dozens of examples of black mob violence connected to that rink over the last year.
Sometimes words don’t do justice: Dozens of examples of large-scale black mob violence in one neighborhood.
The mayhem ranged from throwing bricks through police car windows to vandalizing the Denny’s restaurant next door. The violence includes beating clerks and stealing merchandise from a nearby convenience store, fighting with police, jumping on cars – breaking windows and ruining paint – and much, much more.
Two people were arrested during this episode of violence in August 2013. Even by Delaware standards this Blue Hen mob violence was pale. The year before, for the second year on a row, a black promoter sponsored a party for students from black colleges in the area. By 2 a.m. 800 black people were outside, many fighting. Guns were fired. Cars damaged. 300 state police responded.
A spokesman for the state police said not one of their officers at the scene noticed if the entire crowd was black. Pictures at Facebook answered that question.619 No one was arrested.
Every one of those un-arrested miscreants can be thankful they did not run into the sheriff who runs the town in Newark: He has a posse out on a full-scale hunt to bring these lawbreakers to justice.
Already several students have been suspended or expelled. The rugby team was banned for five years -- a death penalty. Ten arrested. And shortly after the pillow fight, the Wilmington News Journal published a Most Wanted list with the photos of 44 more alleged student rioters, most pictured in full party mode with their mouths open in a party yell. The university wants to bring them to justice as well. White kids all.
Included in the Delaware 10 was a co-ed accused of disorderly conduct and jaywalking. In Delaware, they call that “walking along roadway where sidewalks are provided.” Her hometown paper in New Jersey dutifully reported the conduct and even printed her mug shot.
Very few people were crying “don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.” Instead, many were irritated at the newspaper -- and the University -- for making such a big deal out of such a small thing. Including the girl’s father in the comments section of the local Patch:620
My daughter was one of 12 who got their picture taken out of 2400 students that attended this event. She was not charged with anything more than jay walking. She will be found innocent since a picture from a video cannot be enough evidence to convict.
She also turned herself in when she found out about it (You failed to mention that in your stellar investigation). BTW there is an old lady Jaywalking on Central. Go track her down.
So this part of the search for the Holy Grail of white racial violence ends in disappointment.
In Albany New York, reporter Carl Seiler still insists that it happens all the time, only white mob violence is often ignored. He gives as an example a white riot called "Kegs 'n' Eggs" from two years ago.621
One person said that riot was like watching his 9-year old brother get into a fight with his sister. The quest continues.
