Canada’s Hip Hop Serial Killer? My latest in Taki’s

October 25, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Even an accused multiple murderer such as Moore is included in the liberal media’s sentimental and self-aggrandizing narrative, the same one they’ve been lovingly polishing since Emmett Till and the Scottsboro Boys.

In that mythical saga, black killers are victims and black victims are saints; based upon newspaper coverage alone, one is obliged to conclude that the “black community” has more “honor students” than is statistically likely; individuals wind up “in the wrong place at the wrong time” with alarming frequency; and “cases of mistaken identity” are weirdly epidemic. (Insert your own “they all look alike” joke here.)

For instance, we’re meant to think of Jermaine Smith as a hero: “He died in a hail of bullets at a big weekend barbecue” last month because “he saw the danger coming and hustled several children out of harm’s way.”

However, it sounds like Smith—“an entertainer, some-time contractor and father of a newborn son”—was being targeted and knew it; his presence was what drew gunmen to the “community get-together” at the “public housing complex” in the first place.
