‘Not racist’ Louisiana man warns that renaming street for MLK will unleash his ‘racist ways’

WATCH: ‘Not racist’ Louisiana man warns that renaming street for MLK will unleash his ‘racist ways’

In video captured by NOLA.com, resident after resident came forward and criticized the plan to rename a half-mile stretch of road that runs through the predominately black part of the community after the slain civil rights leader.

“As far as naming it to Martin Luther King, he didn’t live in this parish, he did nothing for this parish, he didn’t even know this parish existed,” said area resident Charlotte O’Connor.

St. Bernard Parish was one of the most heavily impacted areas in Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina destroyed the levees causing almost every structure in the community to be flooded and destroyed.

One bearded man explained that the St. Bernard Parish Council members were pushing their luck with the name change.

“I’ve never had a racist bone in my body. I’ve worked for a bunch of ’em, been in their houses, been in a lot of your guys’ houses, ” he said. “But if you keep pushing me I will show you my racist ways. [Mayor ] Mitch Landrieu can go to hell. Praise the Lord for Bobby Jindal.”


See? Just the mention of MLK makes someone, much like gamma rays did to Bruce Banner, TURNS someone racist. Its not that they are racist at all in the first place. And I understand him, really...my kid LOVES vegetables until I push him to eat them. Then he hates them....thats what he says...not really sure how that works lol
That guy is referring to backlash and not racism but he doesn't explain himself well. Leave it to neo-racist blacks to seize opportunity.
How do you know? Do you know this guy?
I base it on what he said. Duh. He's not racist but his racism will be unleashed. Think about it. It's backlash.

Like the backlash caused by the cops disproportionately killing blacks?
Cops killing blacks is in no way disproportionate to the disproportionate amount of black crime.


Are you saying cops shouldn't be held to a higher standard than any thug on the street?

No. I'm saying cops might shoot blacks more often because blacks commit way more crime.

So if 100 Black people jay walk and 1 white person shots someone then Black people should be shot more often? Unfortunately we know thats not true.


“Simply put, white cops are afraid of black men. We don’t talk about it, we pretend it doesn’t exist, we claim “color blindness,” we say white officers treat black men the same way they treat white men. But that’s a lie. In fact, the bigger, the darker the black man the greater the fear. The African-American community knows this. Hell, most whites know it. Yet, even though it’s a central, if not the defining ingredient in the makeup of police racism, white cops won’t admit it to themselves, or to others.”

No. I'm saying cops might shoot blacks more often because blacks commit way more crime.

But they don't.

In terms of raw numbers, whites commit many more violent crimes. In raw numbers, many more blacks are killed by police than whites.

I anticipated that disingenuous response the minute I realized that by not repeating the term disproportionate that your ADHD would prevail.

Proportionately, your argument is even worse.

Think about it, and let's do some math. I'll make up some numbers to show you what I mean.

If 5000 black people commit crimes, and 10 of them are shot by police - that's .5% of black criminals shot.
If 10,000 white people commit crimes, and 1 of them are shot by police - that's 0.0001% of white criminals shot.

Now run your numbers against the crime proportions.
