Culture Man charged with murder of Black man who complimented his girlfriend

Archive

"A grand jury indicted Ian Mackenzie Cranston on Thursday with a charge of second-degree murder and five other charges in connection with the Sept. 19 shooting death of Barry Washington Jr., a young Black man, Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel said during a rare downtown press conference Thursday night.

Bend Police arrested Cranston, of Redmond, late Thursday. He was lodged in the Deschutes County jail and is being held without bail, said Hummel, who held his press conference across the street from where the shooting took place. Cranston faces charges of second-degree murder, first-degree manslaughter, second-degree manslaughter, first-degree assault and two counts of unlawful use of a weapon.

“Our country has a disgraceful history of denigrating, prosecuting, and lynching black men for talking to white women,” Hummel said in a statement issued after the press conference. “Over the last week, hundreds of people called and emailed me to remind me of this history; I responded to every one of you.”

Authorities have previously said the 22-year-old Washington was shot about 12:11 a.m. Sept. 19 after leaving the Capitol nightclub in downtown Bend. Cranston, 27, is alleged to have pulled a gun and shot Washington after Washington spoke to Cranston’s girlfriend, which angered Cranston. Cranston, who is white, was initially arrested at the scene on suspicion of second-degree manslaughter, but he later posted $10,000 bail and was released, angering many in the community.

After Hummel announced the charges to a crowd of about 20 people, there were audible expressions of relief.

Before the press conference, Hummel told Washington’s mother, Lawanda Roberson, of the indictment. He expressed his condolences for the loss of her son. She thanked God, Hummel said."

Video of the incident taken from the girlfriends phone shows the black man complimenting both the man and his girlfriend with his fists.

This is allegedly from his tiktok.

Single motherhood is just cope. It is racial.

Can you stop blaring bullshit /pol/ memes instead of doing any investigation of the issue?

>the poorest whites have less crime than the richest blacks!
You took two data points out of thousands, across fifty states, in order to make this point. No discussion about any other social phenomena there. Shit, you don't even discuss single motherhood in said towns in an attempt to refute what I invoked. The table takes a broader view, but it still averages out statistics from every single reporting unit across 50 states of a massive country.

And it doesn't even work as a beginning to discuss what the underlying issues are.

>the richest blacks perform poorly versus the poorest whites in SAT scores!
The distortive effects of averaging aside (especially within smaller populations) and the fact that there's no source or year for that table (either of them, really), what is a non-IQ test supposed to demonstrate here?

It's really strange how you spazzed out, asserted "single motherhood" is just a cope, and then proceeded to go "muh rich blacks commit more crime than poor whites" even though that wasn't what you called out and it's not what I mentioned. Race realists-- or whatever they take to calling themselves-- are extremely invested in the "poverty causes crime" argument, to the point that approaching the issue any other way that isn't "those niggers ain't right" breaks their programming and leads them to waste everyone's time.

The only person spazzing out here is you. If single motherhood is the main or only factor at play here, it'd be easy to prove your point. Just find some stat that takes that into account and let's see if there are any differences on average at the racial level. If white men raised in broken families are just as likely to commit a crime as black men raised in broken families, then that would prove you right.

If white men raised in broken families are just as likely to commit a crime as black men raised in broken families, then that would prove you right.

Why would it?

I already said that the problem manifests worse in the African-American community, which is to say that there's more single motherhood. You're unable to understand that such community apoptosis is going to have cascading and multifarious effects that interact with already existing peculiarities as well as itself in order to produce results that need to be first specially examined for what they are (as opposed to what they are in comparison to anything else). For example, single motherhood can promote a cascade of issues, but how it manifests among whites may be different than how it manifests among blacks-- what's more, the fact is that blacks have more of the issue than whites, which means that their culture has developed along said issue abundance, which means that such comparison can't be well made in the first place beyond the superficial of the fact because the issue isn't even quantifiably equal between whites and blacks-- to speak nothing of the other issues in making such simple comparisons.

I'm not even arguing that they're just as likely. Why would I? People aren't equal-- individuals aren't equal. The kinds of opportunities that individuals encounter, and the kind of preparation they have for those opportunities, are not equal. I am arguing that the current quantity of single motherhood (where 60-80% of black children are born to single mothers, and where ~54% continue to be raised by single mothers) maroons the youth and contributes greatly to a cascade of crime in the black community that's egregiously worse than in others. It's far from the only contributor, but it's a potent catalyst for said other factors. You wouldn't even be able to claim that that factor could be best explained by race, because non-American black immigrants have lower divorce rates and lower crime rates.

Your question betrays your lack of understanding about statistics or its place (within narratives, which they invariably find themselves in), as well your general rational sloth-- if only in this context. "Specially isolated factors have to be compared regardless of the interaction between factors, and they have to be exactly equal, and any difference can only be explained by race!" is what you seek to argue.

You don't actually interface with the explanations you seek to refute. Race realists generally don't-- they mumble about how the issues we see can't be because of poverty, sling out some stats of varying frame quality, and then stop there instead of addressing the various perspectives that exist in service of proving their theory supreme. I can actually expect you to pull an old school Sargon and demand that I use less words because the bulk of your reasoning is derived from /pol/ memes that consider "gun ownership in 2014" to be a race-- or maybe it considers "black people" to be a kind of gun ownership in 2014, it's kind of unclear why these two independent factors are pitted against each other in analyzing gun homicide correlation.

And you think that I have a problem with there being a difference in rates at all, when the actual problem is that the rates as they are imply an ubiquity of crime that had only been shaping up in force since the time of the War on Poverty and had been declining up until then. Or do you not get that there is almost certainly some group at the top of anything, in these kinds of statistics?

No fuck off nigger. Every time it comes to looking at criminal behavior as it relates to niggers, it's always the same shit.

*Crime data gets posted*
NO IT'S SOMETHING ELSE I SWEAR! um uh socio-economic status!

*Socioeconomic status gets factored into the statistics*
No it's something else! um uh SINGLE MOTHERHOOD!

No one is arguing that having an absent father figure makes you more predisposed to crime. The issue is that being a nigger makes you more predisposed to having an absent father figure. If your argument is they're only committing more crimes because they don't have a father figure, it still simply results in them being more predisposed to committing a crime just with an extra step added.

If you look at things logically though, crime is best defined as actions that lead to dysfunction in society. Parental abandonment is a behavior that leads to dysfunction in society. The crux of your argument entirely misses the point of the argument to begin with, which is that niggers are not, on average, capable of functioning within society. It misses the point so badly that the argument actually reinforces the point rather than providing a plausible excuse.

I think the problem is that over time due to excuses made the other issues contributing to the Black community has become a racial issue. Basically avoidance of responsibility in the community has evolved from just being a single "lack of father" "lack of X factor" into becoming a truly racial issue. It always comes down to other groups not acting the same and the apologies given has led into a rise of irresponsibility.

At one time I would have waived it as the multi-factors being the perfect storm, now, I can no longer agree with that. It has become ingrained in the Black community and the deflection only allows the issue to maintain its grasp over it or in this case has become the same identity.

[Zero Day Defense]

So it's an unfalsifiable premise.

Have you even been able to prove your premise? If the problem is one principally of race, then the rates should consistently hold, no? What explanation do you have for the murder perp rates among non-whites* spiking sharply then falling sharply and steadily declining until the 1960s, if they were as black in the 1940s as they were in the 1960s?

*Until about the 1970s non-whites were all lumped together, but >90% of those non-whites were blacks.

No fuck off nigger. Every time it comes to looking at criminal behavior as it relates to niggers, it's always the same shit.

*Crime data gets posted*
NO IT'S SOMETHING ELSE I SWEAR! um uh socio-economic status!

*Socioeconomic status gets factored into the statistics*
No it's something else! um uh SINGLE MOTHERHOOD!

What the fuck does any of this mean?

"crime data gets posted"
Crime data doesn't explain itself. Crime data doesn't exist in a vacuum. Statistics overall does not do that. When you post crime stats, you're invariably posing some explanation for those stats, and you bring in other details to substantiate the thesis you have. Your thesis is that "black people are genetically predisposed to crime at substantially greater rates" and you demonstrate with... crime stats, which indicate that crime is happening and give a picture of who's doing what more, but don't ever explain any of the "why".

"socioeconomic status gets factored into the statistics"
Yeah, "factored", which means that you compare two data points, or you produce a study of n~=100, or you compare averages compiled from every single unit reporting to the FBI, and then make a definitive conclusion. This is done in place of further fleshing out your argument by, say, comparing the statistics to-- being very pithy with this list here-- the historical events and sociocultural trends those stats coincide with. Historians of any stripe do not do this. You would get zero marks for doing this in any kind of history class. You do it, and you think you're enlightened.

This would be equivalent to looking at the elevated crime rates of last year 20 years from now and just reasoning that "it was a violent time". Okay, but why? Because people were just more violent, then?

No one is arguing that having an absent father figure makes you more predisposed to crime.

That's literally what you did just before this statement. That's what the poster prior to you did. Dismissing the issue without giving it any kind of place in your rebuttal-- which poses a separate argument-- is tantamount to arguing against.

The issue is that being a nigger makes you more predisposed to having an absent father figure.

Then why would the rates change, much less as precipitiously as they did? Why would Moynihan be disturbed by an increase in illegitimacy in the black community (which was peanuts compared to what we have now, whether it be absolutely or relatively)? Why do non-American Africans have much lower illegitimacy rates?

If your argument is they're only committing more crimes because they don't have a father figure

Not my argument.

If you look at things logically though, crime is best defined as actions that lead to dysfunction in society. Parental abandonment is a behavior that leads to dysfunction in society. The crux of your argument entirely misses the point of the argument to begin with, which is that niggers are not, on average, capable of functioning within society.

That's... an incredibly retarded statement that tries to masquerade as being intelligent, and while I would hope that you have a narrow definition of "nigger", I'm not that naive.

We're talking about numerous societies of varying quality that are primarily black, we're talking about changing trends that strongly suggest a degradation of the community within the United States, we're talking about millions of black people that function just fine and are even successful both within and without the United States whether they're in black majority communities, and you figure that "on average" they're not "capable of functioning within society".

No, I'm aware that you tried to be nuanced with the "on average", but given that at worst, 33% of black men have a felony record (do the math on that one), you're not even correct there. But even in general, "functioning within society" is such a low bar that any known community with more than one black person in it that hasn't descended into consistent chaos is proof against that statement.

At one time I would have waived it as the multi-factors being the perfect storm, now, I can no longer agree with that. It has become ingrained in the Black community and the deflection only allows the issue to maintain its grasp over it or in this case has become the same identity.

But the deflection involved in merely stating that it's a racial issue doesn't?

If the problem that has a distinct beginning was once able to be distinctly identified, then it was never a "racial issue" as the idea is commonly understood-- it would be a cultural issue, or a cultural sabotage, depending. On the other hand, if it is a "racial issue", then nothing can be done because "that's just the way they are".

To say that it's a "racial issue" is just to take the SJW's pathological pity and bigotry of low expectations to its honest and un-voiced conclusions. The SJW has technically given up on the black person and uses them as a means to signal their virtue. The "race realist" uses the black person but for the sake of signaling their enlightenment... or whatever.

The media just won't report the defense's case in court. They care about the narrative and brainwashing the public not any details of this particular case. Then if he gets off because of evidence they never mentioned that it was self-defense, they can stir up the public to riot over "racial injustice." Hopefully in time for the midterms!

But it's just so damn brazen. Even the guy's lawyer is basically explaining that the shooting isn't justified but that the video clearly disputes what the state is hinting at pursuing as a narrative.
