Written back in 2015, a minister and president of the UCC, a protestant denomination, John Dorhauer, penned an op-ed for Huffington Post. It is one of what feels like an endless stream of blood libel coming from our many enemies. The bad news is it's impossible to keep up and reply to each one. The good news is we don't need to. I often come back to this blog post by Dorhauer because it seems to have a little bit of everything in one place. In a way, this minister did us a favor by creating a one-stop-shop of common lies and accusations leveled against us. 

Now, let us take a look at these claims.[1]

Dorhauer starts, "Dear White Men, You are persons of privilege." Here, he means some nebulous unearned and undeserved privilege that gave us all the world for nothing in return. From the outside looking in, a mystical explanation might seem reasonable, "privilege." when comparing the White man to the others, it might seem like some ethereal force granted us the ability to create, reason, build and destroy with superhuman prowess. But privilege cannot exist in a vacuum. It had to come from somewhere, and I suppose a religious man could argue God himself bestowed the White man with abilities beyond the norm, in which case surely a minister would understand God works in mysterious ways. If it wasn't God-given, then any advantage White men might possess must have been bestowed upon their civilization and through their struggles and toil. 

[For the sake of coherency of my replies, I’ve re-organized some of the paragraphs.]

Dorhauer goes on, "We aren't getting arrested at four times our population rate. We aren't being followed when walking through a department store wearing a sweatshirt with a hood."

-Liberals only seem to understand how per-capita works when it benefits them. Here, for example, they understand adjusting arrest rates for population percentages but do not understand arrest rates can also be understood as per crime rate. Blacks are arrested per their rates of criminality. In the USA, whites are arrested and incarcerated at a higher rate per their population than East Asians. I do not believe this is because East Asians have some "Asian privilege" in policing. I believe they commit less crime and are thus arrested and imprisoned at a lower rate than whites. The opposite is true of blacks and Latinos. 

-I did the math on this once. When you adjust for violent crime rate and police interactions by race, we find Whites are killed more by police than is warranted by their levels of police interactions and violent crime. 

“A far more appropriate statistic to use to determine this would be to take the number of annual arrests for violent crime for each racial group and compare those to the number of people who are killed by the police from each race. Both violent crime arrests and police killings are generally stable each year, with no indication that the arrest rates swing wildly back and forth between whites and blacks. Thus, in 2016, 153,341 blacks were arrested for violent crimes and 241,063 whites were arrested for violent crimes.[6] Also in 2016, 234 black people were killed by police, and police killed 466 whites.[7]If we divide the number of arrests of whites for violent crimes by the number of whites killed by police, we find one death for every 517 arrests. In regard to blacks, we find one death for every 655 arrests of violent criminals. When we really start to look at the math here, we find that police interaction are significantly deadlier for a white man than a black man.[2]”

-Again, this is not based in reality. Much like being killed by the police, Whites are pulled over and ticketed at a higher rate than their level of speeding would warrant. The New Jersey Turnpike study found that black drivers were almost twice as likely to be speeding. When adjusted for propensity to speed, we find Whites pulled over more.  

-There is an endless list of blacks committing violent crimes and being given probation. A Black man in Tampa, Florida, killed a 77-year-old White man in a Dunkin' Donuts and was given only house arrest. The justification? The killer alleged the White man called him a n****r.[3] I wrote about the N-word defense before, it’s incredibly common, and it works.  

A very similar scenario happened at a county fair. The murderer received probation. It's constant. I've probably seen a hundred violent black on White crimes where the black was given probation or house arrest or something similar over the death of a White person.[4]

-I'm working on an entire installment about this topic. In short, keeping neighborhoods "nice" means a lot of things. For one, it means keeping out crime and people likely to have their house foreclosed. The second statement by Dorhauer explains and, in a way, contradicts the first. Why would you want to allow people in your neighborhood if their mere existence lowers your property value? If you were a bank, why would you want to give people loans to move into an area where you've already made a lot of loans, knowing the value of your underlying collateral will take a huge hit? 

There is a reason certain people lower property values, and it's their own behavior. 

-I'm not sure what this is referring to exactly. I assume it's a statement about inadequate teachers in public schools in non-white neighborhoods? To me, that's between the community and the school. This really has nothing to do with White people. Inner-city Baltimore might as well be somewhere in Ghana, not our concern. This is nothing but blaming all of the world's perceived ills on the White man.

-There is an endemic of church burnings in Europe, for one. According to the Catholic News Agency, one church is burning every other week in France.[5]

The second part of this statement refers to Dylan Roof. And to that, I say, even if we claim Dylan as our own, totally own up to him and his actions, it pales in comparison to the violence Whites experience at the hands of non-whites every week. If there was a new Dylan Roof every day and black crime stopped tomorrow, it would take decades for the disparity in interracial crime to even out.

-Young women feel more comfortable around other women than men because women are less likely to rape, murder, mug, or victimize them in some way. And this stands to reason because men commit far more violent crimes than women. Similarly, they feel safer around certain races for the same reason. This is very much a 7-11 Nationalism issue. 

Clerks have been set on fire, killed, stabbed, and it’s not often by White men.[6] This year, a woman working in an upscale furniture store was stabbed to death by a black man. The crime was called “random,” as always. But far from being random, these crimes fit a massive pattern of violent black on White crime.[7] In the case of the people set on fire during the robbery, the armed criminal already had them tied up and access to the money. It seems setting them on fire was purely for the joy of it.

One that hits close to home for me, a 7-11 clerk loved in her community for being such a central part of people's lives. She actually would take the time to know people's names; she was described as a "sweet soul," killed by a black robber.[8]

-Well, yes. The southern border issue is about Mexicans, Central, and South Americans crossing illegally, not goofy-looking pencil necked middle-aged liberals. Sadly, and for now, that isn't who border patrol is trying to find and deport. 

-Insert vague appeal to religiosity and moralizing the idea of "White privilege." Pretty standard fare here. Many use religion to justify their cultural or political views, and this is no exception. 

-And the admission that he has no idea if any of this is true, and the further admission that it doesn't matter to him. In my book, I wrote extensively about how a crux of Liberalism seems to be a total lack of concern if anything they are saying is even true or based in reality. They rarely admit it isn't. This is, of course, welcomed as an admission against their interests. Dorhauer is quite literally saying that none of these "facts" could be true, and he would still want Whites to give up their schools, neighborhoods, safe corner stores, concerns about crime, and everything else that makes society tolerable, in favor of some vague sense of righteousness and "being a good person." 

-I've heard enough from the likes of Dorhauer, the lies of BLM, academia, the media, Hollywood, and the rest of this loathsome coterie. I'm only interested in hearing from those who are like me, who see what I see and hear what I hear. 

Thank you for the invitation, Minister John Dorhauer, but I will not be walking with you on your journey. I have my own cross to bear, and the destination is in the other direction anyway. It will involve discovery and paying a high price; that is for certain, in fact, much has already been paid. Although I have little hope for much of anything these days, I’m still here because I feel them breathing down my neck more and more with each passing day. At some point, I realized people do not fight because they think they can win; they fight because with your back against the wall, it is the only option left.
