Jonah Goldberg, Second Generation Racist

When you see a headline like this from the Doughy Pantload

In Katrina's aftermath, racial generalizations aren't helpful

you might think Goldberg was going to castigate his racist pal John Derbyshire for seconding the racist comments of John Tierney's racist pal, Steve Sailer. (Derbyshire's comment is quoted here.)

You might think that if you knew nothing about Jonah Goldberg, the son of a proprietor of an internet bulletin board for racists.

You might think it if you didn't read Goldberg's article, which engages in racist generalizations Goldberg at which he pretends to take offense. The Pantload writes:

The danger here is real. Tens of thousands of black New Orleaneans persevered with dignity and sacrifice in the face of Katrina. But a sizable minority of blacks - including police - behaved reprehensibly in the aftermath, shooting at rescue workers, raping, killing and, yes, looting (though no cannibalism).

Does the Pantload have any proof that any African-Americans shot at rescue workers, raped and killed people "in the aftermath?" Does he have any proof that a sizeable minority of African-Americans shot at rescue workers, raped and killed people? Does he have any proof that any -- or a sizeable minority -- of African-American police officers shot at rescue workers, killed and raped people? Because he unequivocally makes every one of those assertions. Perhaps he confused the facts with a particularly violent episode of Star Trek.

Goldberg is a racist, pure and simple.
