Atlanta Hawks Owner Blows The Dog Whistle!


God damn it, this year is getting worse for Black America. The ignorant White conservative man continue his pursuit of hatred and total bigotry towards Blacks.

Now the NBA once again has an owner who was caught on tape or through the social networks saying something disrespectful towards Blacks.

Bruce Levenson, part of owner of the Hawks is giving it up after the uproar.

As expected the racist right will claim this guy is a Democrat cause he may have donated a few thousands to group that associates with the party. The racist right will say that NBA stars say NIGGA like it's an everyday thing. The racist right will acknowledge that White men are off limits to political correctness.

No one is stopping the White conservative man from being a condescending bigot. You have the right to say ugly hurtful and downright racist things about the president, the Black community and those who aren't White. You can do so at your peril, If you own a business or have media impact, you can get the hammer laid on you if you speak hateful words.

The Associated Press reports that less than one month after the Clippers' sale ended Donald Sterling's ugly downfall, another NBA team is on the market following a racially charged disclosure from its owner.

Atlanta Hawks co-owner Bruce Levenson said Sunday he is selling his controlling interest in the team, thanks in part to an inflammatory email he wrote two years ago.
NBA owner goes off on Blacks at his game in an fiery email.
Levenson said he wrote the email in an attempt "to bridge Atlanta's racial sports divide." Instead, he offered his divisive comments, including his theory that Hawks black fans kept white fans away.

Levenson said he regrets the email sent to the team's co-owners and general manager Danny Ferry in 2012 as "inappropriate and offensive." In a statement released by the team, Levenson said he sent the email due to his concerns about low attendance and a need to attract suburban whites.

He says he later realized the email made it seem white fans were more important. He voluntarily reported the email to the NBA.

"I have said repeatedly that the NBA should have zero tolerance for racism, and I strongly believe that to be true," Levenson said in the statement. "That is why I voluntarily reported my inappropriate email to the NBA.

"After much long and difficult contemplation, I have decided that it is in the best interests of the team, the Atlanta community, and the NBA to sell my controlling interest in the Hawks franchise."

NBA Commissioner Adam Silver said Sunday the league will work with the Hawks' ownership group and CEO Steve Koonin, who now will oversee all team operations.

Silver said the league's independent investigation "regarding the circumstances of Mr. Levenson's comments" in the email was ongoing when he was told Saturday night of Levenson's plan to sell his share of the team.

Silver said he supported Levenson's decision.

"As Mr. Levenson acknowledged, the views he expressed are entirely unacceptable and are in stark contrast to the core principles of the National Basketball Association," Silver said. "He shared with me how truly remorseful he is for using those hurtful words and how apologetic he is to the entire NBA family — fans, players, team employees, business partners and fellow team owners — for having diverted attention away from our game.
The team is on sale.
"I commend Mr. Levenson for self-reporting to the league office, for being fully cooperative with the league and its independent investigator, and for putting the best interests of the Hawks, the Atlanta community, and the NBA first."

Sterling was forced to sell the Los Angeles Clippers after a recording surfaced in April of the owner scolding his girlfriend for bringing black men to Clippers games. Steve Ballmer officially became the team's new owner on Aug. 12.

In the email sent in August 2012, Levenson said "southern whites" were uncomfortable at games.

"My theory is that the black crowd scared away the whites and there are simply not enough affluent black fans to build a significant season ticket base," Levenson said in the email released Sunday by the Hawks.

"Please don't get me wrong. There was nothing threatening going on in the arena back then. I never felt uncomfortable, but I think southern whites simply were not comfortable being in an arena or at a bar where they were in the minority."

Levenson said Hawks crowds were 70 percent black, the team's cheerleaders were black and hip-hop music was played.

"Then I start looking around at other arenas," Levenson said. "It is completely different."

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Atlanta's population was 54 percent black and 38.4-percent white in 2010. For metro Atlanta, the ratio is 55.4 percent white and 32.4 percent black.

Levenson said he often heard fans say the area around Philips Arena in downtown Atlanta is dangerous.

"This was just racist garbage," Levenson said. "When I hear some people saying the arena is in the wrong place I think it is code for there are too many blacks at the games."
John Jenkins.
Though he said he disagreed with the conclusion, he said he told team executives to add white cheerleaders and music "familiar to a 40-year-old white guy."

Added Levenson in the email: "I have even (complained) that the kiss cam is too black."

Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed said the comments in Levenson's email were "reprehensible and offensive."

"The statements do not represent the city of Atlanta's history of diversity and inclusion, and we will be clear and deliberate in denouncing and repudiating them," Reed said. "I applaud the NBA's efforts to enforce a no-tolerance policy of discrimination. As a city, we will continue to stand behind the Atlanta Hawks organization as they work to find new ownership that reflects the values and ideals of a city that is too busy to hate."

The Rev. Al Sharpton released a statement encouraging Silver "to continue vetting all owners."

"The announcement by Bruce Levenson is welcomed and appropriate by those of us in the civil rights community, that raised the issue of Donald Sterling's need to be removed, and that other owners must be held accountable," Sharpton said.

Though the NBA investigation of the email was ongoing, Levenson apparently concluded he couldn't continue in his ownership role.

"If you're angry about what I wrote, you should be," Levenson said in Sunday's statement. "I'm angry at myself, too. It was inflammatory nonsense. We all may have subtle biases and preconceptions when it comes to race, but my role as a leader is to challenge them, not to validate or accommodate those who might hold them."

This is not Levenson's first effort to sell the team. In 2011, the Hawks' ownership group, headed by Levenson and Michael Gearon Jr., made an unsuccessful attempt to sell to California developer and pizza chain owner Alex Meruelo.

The group acquired the Hawks and the NHL Thrashers from Time Warner in 2004. The Thrashers were sold and moved to Winnipeg in 2011.

Georgia Dad May Get The Gas For Leaving Son To Die In A Hot Car!

Dad is found guilty of being negligent parent.

In Georgia, the high profile case of Justin Harris, the man who left his son in a hot car for hours while he was sending his junk over the sex stream was convicted of charge.

In Georgia, he may end up getting the gas house if the jury decides that life in the iron college isn't enough punishment.

Bad parenting leads to this stuff. There's no accident. A parent should know better to not leave any child, or a dog in a hot car. That stuff is one of the reason to why our country is so fucking stupid.

Justin Ross Harris, 33, also faces two counts of felony murder for the June 18 death. The eight-count indictment by a Cobb County grand jury includes charges of child cruelty and a criminal charge involving sexual exploitation of a child.

“The evidence in this case has led us to this point today,” he said in a statement.

The case of the suburban Atlanta father, who has been jailed since his son’s death, has drawn attention to a tragic cause of death in children.

So far this year, 26 children have died of vehicle-related heat strokes in the United States, according to KidAndCars.org. On average, the group sees 38 such deaths each year. Although parents typically face criminal charges in about half the deaths, the group said felony murder charges were unusual.

“We've seen some pretty extreme charges this year,” said Amber Rollins, director of the nonprofit organization, based in Kansas City, Missouri.

The indictment said Harris acted “with malice aforethought” when he placed his toddler in a car seat and left him in a sport utility vehicle on a day when the temperature was in the 90s F.

Harris told police he forgot to drop his son, Cooper, off at his daycare center on his way to work and only discovered the child after he left the office that afternoon.

Prosecutors contended that Harris deliberately left Cooper in the car because he wanted to live a child-free life.

Harris’ attorney, Maddox Kilgore, has argued there is no proof his client knowingly left the child in the car.

In July, a judge ordered Harris to remain jailed without bond after hearing evidence he exchanged nude photographs with women other than his wife while he was at work and his son was dying in the car.

Investigators testified that Harris did Internet research on living child-free and how to survive in prison before his son’s death. He was having marital and work problems, investigators said.

Harris’ wife, Leanna, was interviewed by authorities but has not been charged in the case.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Cooper Harris. Minus his mother and father. These two should be shoved under a rock.

The Racist Right Still Digging In The Crates!

Some of the photos are Michael Brown. The rest are likely false. But who cares, they're nothing incriminating about them.

Still at it, eh?

Okay, this Charles Johnson guy is just as worse as that asshat Colin Flaherty.

These White extremists are determined to blame the victim for his own death. Despite being unarmed, the white extremist is trying to find "incriminating" evidence to prove that Michael Brown, the young teen hit with six by a Ferguson cop started the confrontation.

This racist troll can't get a "smoking" gun. So he'll keep trying and trying and unfortunately drive the junk food media to it.

Okay, once again fuck Asswipe Charles Johnson, Asshat Colin Flaherty, and Assbanger Jim Hoft.

Three White extremists.

Keep it moving cause there's nothing to see here. Waste of my time.

Somewhere In September!

Nothing is working. Second term curse in full steam.

We're less than a few months from election day. The Democrats are on the verge of losing control of Congress. The president's job approval is worse. The president and his party have not accomplish much during the time Republicans took control of the House of Representatives.

Although, the Congress is equally worse than Obama, the Republicans actually have more enthusiasm when it comes to voting this session. They want to beat Obama.

This jobs report is perfect for the Republicans to win on the message that "Obama is not working". 

Again the mood of the country sour. On not only the president, but the Democrats and Republicans as well. The constant gridlock and the president's refusal to go after the Republicans left us in the mess.

The president is probably glad to go overseas. He is trying to get aid in the fight against the Islamic State and Boko Haram. He wants the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to stop the fighting in Israeli/Palestine and the Russian Federation/Ukraine crisis.

The job market was lousy again in August after several months of decent growth. Employers added just 142,000 jobs to non-farm payrolls, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported on Friday, the worst month for job growth this year. It fell short of the 223,000 economists expected, according to a Briefing.com tally. It was also well below the recent pace of job growth, which had averaged more than 200,000 jobs per month so far this year.

The unemployment rate dipped to 6.1 percent from 6.2 percent in July, matching the lowest rate in nearly six years. But that was mainly due to the fact that 64,000 people gave up looking for work, taking themselves out of the ranks of the officially unemployed.



A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Ires!

The racist right can't stop smearing the name of Michael Brown. They pass around this photo of a man with a broken eye socket, They claim this was MO officer Darren Wilson. Turns out that guy isn't Wilson but Jim McNeil a motorcross rider who was killed in 2011. This was a photo of the late motorcross rider in 2006.

The racist right spreads around a photo of a man with a swollen eye. They claim that is the Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson. The officer shot unarmed teen Michael Brown sparking a month of unrest in the St. Louis area.

It's one of the themes of the racist right to smear the name of the victim.

That victim is a Black teen. They tried to smear Brown by calling everything but unarmed citizen.

Attorney General Eric Holder has ordered an investigation into the Ferguson police department.

He wants the records of previous encounters with citizens, He wants to know how many incidents involving police officers and those of color.




Once again, this is stupidity at its best.

The racist right will try their hardest to debunk the witnesses who saw the officer put six in the teen.

They will call this young man everything but a human being.

Never since Trayvon Martin have we experience more inept forms of racism directed not only towards the Black community, but President Barack Obama, his family and those unarmed Black victims murdered by those who swore to protect them.

This is what Darren Wilson looks like by the way.

Supposed Photo of Injured Darren Wilson Is Just Some White Guy

I've Plugged The Hole After The BLACKS Shot Me!

Don't arrest me, I'm a former Navy seal. Ohio man created a phony racial panic.
There's a sleeper story from Ohio. A former Navy Seal who made the news rounds earlier this year saying that he was a victim of a shooting by three unknown Black assailants will face the music.

Chris Heben served our country as a Navy Seal. When he got back into his hometown of Akron, he used his freedoms to be a judge of character. He would concoct a story about him being in a sports car when he nearly gets into a wreck with another vehicle.

He would say that three Black men would jump out the car with some yelling profanities at him. One in particular brought race into the issue according to him. Then after a confrontation, Heben was shot in the stomach. So instead of calling 911 for assistance, he would "PLUG" his wounds and jump into his vehicle to chase after the shooter.

That story was too good to be true. Heben managed to attract media attention and stirred the White extremist online with this story. This was going towards that Asshat Colin Flaherty's narrative that Blacks are violent and attacking White people talking point.

Turns out that the FBI, Bath Township Police and the Summit County Sheriff didn't buy the story and Haben is going up the creek.

“We have overwhelming evidence based upon video, cell phone records and interviews that the shooting did not occur in the West Market Plaza and that Mr. Heben made false allegations to us,” Bath Township Police Chief Mike McNeely explained.

Besides the public shaming, he got a scar, a court date and probably a whole lot of explaining to do to his family, his friends and probably the Black community. The community often accused by White people as the perpetrator of every single aspect of crime in America.

I am guessing he'll say that he suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and he was on his meds when he self inflict his wound.

He also has other criminal charges during his rise to fame. Some included forgery.

In Dayton this year, a bus driver claimed that he was shot by three unknown Black assailants. The bus driver claims that the Black assailants wanted to join a gang so they had to kill a "polar bear". So in other words, the imaginary Black man was hoping to kill off a white person (known as polar bear) to the kookspiracy.

Rickey Wagoner was given the pink slip from his job at the Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority bus line and is under investigation for forgery and fraud.

This stuff rings echos to how White male conservatives view Black men. They see nothing but criminals. That's why you hear that nonsense about Michael Brown "charging" at Officer Darren Wilson in Ferguson, MO. That's why you hear comments about imaginary injuries on the perpetrator.
