Director and producer Spike Lee declared Tuesday that more than 30 years after he made “Do The Right Thing,” Black people are still being “hunted down like animals” in America. During the Cannes Film Festival jury press conference in France, Mr. Lee, who is the first Black person to lead the jury, spoke highly of the late film critic Roger Ebert after his widow mentioned her late husband was outraged and had even threatened to boycott the festival after “Do The Right Thing” didn’t win any awards in 1989.
“I want you to know that I have a very special place in my heart for Roger,

We hate him for all the right reasons, none of which is about his color.
Overpraised mediocre movies is a big part of it.

Standing in the country that now deports more people of color than any other developed country, telling them how awful those white Americans are because of the huge number of Black Americans killing Black Americans. Such courage.

The evil that is visited upon blacks comes at the hands of other blacks. In the headlines today:
Rising Georgia college quarterback Ladarius Clardy killed in 50-bullet barrage
The men sought for questioning were not white. Spike Lee is a liar and a fool.

Spoke highly of Roger Ebert, eh? Purely coincidental that his widow, who relayed the late critic's alleged outrage, is a large black gal.

I am far more concerned about blacks behaving like animals which causes an asymmetry of 3% population committing 56% of all violent crimes. Frankly, there should be NO FURTHER 'conversation' on race until someone with authority comes forward owns up the problem and shows how this can be addressed.

True. By other black people. Who were the victims and who were the perpetrators this 4th? I'm betting 85% - 90% black on both counts.

Hunted down like animals? By stalking them, following fresh feces? By hanging out on trees stands at dawn, waiting at salt licks? Like chasing fox thru the forests with dogs?

Yes, Blacks are hunting down each other. They are given license to do so by cowardly liberal politicians, activists, and celebrities like Spike Lee who are too afraid to speak up and call the feral Blacks out for their actions. It is easier for them to blame everyone else and "the legacy of slavery" BS on the Black on Black killing than on who is really responsible. Spike Lee and others are afraid of being called race traitors if they "do the right thing".

Spike Lee is a racist, just like most of Hollywood. The last movie of his I watched was the one about Malcolm X, and I won't be watching another one any time soon.

If you look at FBI crime statistics, in every race, if you are killed, the odds are that it was someone of your same race killing you. That is across the board. However, for blacks, it is over a 90% certainty that you will be killed by another black person if you are killed.
Also, you look at the group that is responsible for killing people of your race, and the 2nd most common killers of all races (except blacks) are also blacks.
So, yes, blacks are being hunted down and killed like animals -- by other blacks!!!! And most other races are also being hunted down and killed -- by blacks.
But, strangely, I just don't think that is what old race baiting Spike Lee was talking about...

Remember the killer who said he was intent on killing the first white person he found? Or the white guy run down and killed riding a Harley because the murderer said he assumed he was a Supremacist? How about random white person target practice on the beltways or random beatdown by mobs of blacks on passing white people? I think he has his races confused.

To add to #23’s list, remember Colin Ferguson who committed the Long Island Railroad massacre back in 1993. He is black and he shot and killed a couple dozen people on the train, all of them white. And he confessed that he got on the train with the intention of killing only whites.

This is incredibly sad. I don’t care what his race is or even what he was doing. The death of an 18 year-old man is very sad indeed.
Whether he was clean as a whistle or not, Jesus loves this young man and died for him. And Jesus had a purpose for him to fulfill. But now the man is gone. How horribly sad!

Hey Shelton you little sawed off racist runt I’ve got news for you. Blacks are being hunted down like animals. Guess who’s doing the hunting. It isn’t evil White Nationalists, Hispanic gang members, Chinese Communists or even Native American tribal chiefs. It’s other black people. The hunting grounds of Southside Chicago are proof of that. So you little Spike need to shut up STAT.
