Academics Try To Get Own Study Canned After It Finds Inconvenient Truth About Race & Police Shootings
Another Academic Found The Same Thing... |
Being the authors of a widely cited academic study ordinarily would be a good thing. But not for Joseph Cesario and David Johnson, apparently. They’ve asked for that widely cited paper to be retracted — not because of any errors in it, mind you, but because of who’s citing it.
You probably would be less surprised if I told you the study was called “Officer characteristics and racial disparities in fatal officer-involved shootings.” Cesario and Johnson — from Michigan State University and the University of Maryland, respectively — were among the authors of a study that looked at whether there were any distinct patterns of racial bias in fatal police shootings.
Their conclusion, as reported by Retraction Watch, was that originally there was “no evidence of anti-Black or anti-Hispanic disparities across shootings, and White officers are not more likely to shoot minority civilians than non-White officers.”
Well, whoops. That’s impolitic. The study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2019 and been a political football once conservatives started using it to hit back on...
Goya boycott backfires bigly as Trump supporters buy up Goya products like it’s Christmas

The Left’s lame “Boycott Goya” campaign to bully and silence Goya Food CEO Robert Unanue for praising President Trump has backfired in epic fashion after scores of Trump supporters launched their own counter-boycott called “Goya Buy-cott.”
The resulting “Buy-cott” campaign caused countless Trump supporters to go to their local stores and buy up Goya olives, seasonings, and canned beans like it’s like Christmas.
In fact, Goya couldn’t have had a better marketing effort if it had paid millions of dollars for ads.
President Trump kicked things off by tweeting, “I love Goya Foods!”
Philanthropist Foster Friess tweeted: “Over the past few days, there has been an effort to Boycott Goya, so let’s turn this into something good:
BUY Goya Products.
DONATE them to Homeless Shelters, Food banks, Senior Homes
POST Pictures and encourage others to do the same!

Senator Marco Rubio shared an “I Love Goya” image and tweeted: “Most of these people fronting about a #GoyaBoycott either don’t use Goya Foods anyways.”
Yesterday, Harper launched a GoFundMe campaign to “Buy GOYA, Support Trump and Feed the Hungry” at the same time.
Harper said: “After hearing about the GOYA boycott, I went to the store and spent $225.29 on GOYA products. The liberal mob is coming for anyone who disagrees. Cancel culture at its worst. We need to have our...
Swedish parents of 11-year-old confront suspected migrant rapist
Two parents in Upplands Väsby in Sweden detained a 16-year-old migrant who is suspected of the attempted rape of their 11-year-old son. The Somali citizen is also suspected of raping a 12-year-old and was earlier sentenced to juvenile custody for other crimes.
Last November a 16-year-old with Somali citizenship was detained by an 11-year-old boy’s parents after a rape attempt on the boy in Upplands Väsby, a locality in Stockholm County, Swedish daily Expressen reported.
A month before the assault on the 11-year-old, the 16-year-old was suspected of raping a 12-year-old boy during a similar assault. Only when the boy offered him his weekly allowance, the migrant let him go.
The 16-year-old has already been suspected of committing 35 crimes during the past year, including assault, unlawful threats, harassment, and burglary. At the time of the assault, he was taken into custody after having been sentenced to juvenile custody.
The mother of the 11-year-old boy told Expressen that her son had come home and said that he had been threatened with a knife and subjected to an attempted rape.
“My son cried; he was hysterical, and said that the boy had a knife. My son was terrified that he would hurt us. I said that we had to find him so that he can’t do this to another child,” the mother told Expressen.
They found the 16-year-old, and the mother was able to...

The petition has gone viral across social media and demands George Soros is declared a terrorist
A White House petition to declare far-left billionaire George Soros a "terrorist" and seize all of his assets has gone viral.

After being shared far and wide across social media, the campaign has amassed a staggering 216,158 (at time of press) signatures from patriots.
The petition calls on the Department of Justice (DOJ) to “immediately declare George Soros and all of his organizations and staff members to be domestic terrorists."
It also demands that the DOJ has "all of his personal an organizational wealth and assets seized under Civil Asset Forfeiture law.”
At the time of publishing this article, the petition has amassed almost a quarter of a million signatures from patriotic citizens – far exceeding the minimum of 100,000 required to get an official response from Congress.
The petition calls on the Justice Department to seize all of George Soros' assets
The petition can be signed at the “We the People” website here.
The full text of the viral petition is as follows:
“Whereas George Soros has willfully and on an ongoing basis attempted to destabilize and otherwise commit acts of sedition against the United States and its citizens, has created and funded dozens (and probably hundreds) of discrete organizations whose sole purpose is to apply Alinsky model terrorist tactics to facilitate the collapse of the systems and Constitutional government of the United State, and has developed unhealthy and undue influence over the entire Democrat Party and a large portion of the US Federal government, the DOJ should immediately declare George Soros and all of his organizations and staff members to be domestic terrorists, and have all of his personal an organizational wealth and assets seized under...
Scientists from the Wuhan virus lab have 'defected' to the West, reveals senior Trump ally Steve Bannon - as FBI gathers evidence that coronavirus pandemic was caused by an accidental leak
- Steve Bannon says spies are building case against Beijing that virus was lab leak
- Mr Bannon says defectors were talking to intelligence agencies in UK and the US
- He urges Boris Johnson to scrap plans for Huawei to play role in UK's 5G network
Steve Bannon, who was Trump’s White House chief strategist and retains close links to the administration, told The Mail on Sunday that spies were building a case against Beijing on the basis that the global pandemic had been caused by a leak from the Institute of Virology in Wuhan and that the subsequent cover-up had amounted to ‘pre-meditated murder’.
In an exclusive interview, Mr Bannon also urged Boris Johnson to scrap plans to allow the Chinese communications firm Huawei to play a role in the UK’s new 5G network.
Staff are pictured above at the Wuhan Institute of Technology. Speaking to this newspaper from a yacht off the East coast of America, Mr Bannon said that defectors were talking to the intelligence agencies in America, Europe and the UK
The Prime Minister is due to make an announcement within days over Huawei’s future, which is expected to lead to the company’s equipment being stripped from the 5G programme within the next decade.
Mr Bannon, 66, who worked as a naval officer, investment banker and film producer before becoming chief executive officer of Trump’s presidential campaign, describes himself as an ‘ultra-hawk’ on China, arguing that Western countries should work together to bring down the ‘brutal, authoritarian’ regime.
His incendiary claims about the source of the virus, which has so far claimed more than 560,000 lives worldwide, came as Western governments gather growing evidence to challenge Beijing’s original claim that the infection first spread from a market
