Ohio State law professor calls for abolishing police

An Ohio State University law school professor claims the deaths of Ma’Khia Bryant and George Floyd point to why policing should be abolished.

Article by Art Moore from WND.

Sean Hill, in a guest column Thursday for the Columbus Dispatch, noted that just as the nation awaited the verdict in the Derek Chauvin trial on Tuesday, news broke of the fatal shooting of 16-year-old Ma’Khia Bryant by a white officer in Columbus, Ohio, where OSU is located.

Hill contended Bryant’s death and the death of 13-year-old Adam Toledo in Chicago were examples of police “targeting” black people because of their race. He wrote that in 2018, “55% of incidents involving use-of-force by Columbus police targeted Black people, despite Black Columbus residents making up less than 29% of the population.”

“The problem of police brutality and the extrajudicial killing of civilians is, of course, not limited to Ohio nor even the Midwest,” he said.

He said investments in “professionalizing” the police force since at least the 1940s have failed. And the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act in Congress “would not have saved George Floyd’s life.”

“Abolition” of policing is the answer, he said.

Hill wrote that “voters and politicians, alike, should confront how often policing reforms have been pursued without success, and should familiarize themselves with abolition as an urgent and needed solution.”

“Too many families have forever lost their loved ones because of our country’s over-reliance on policing and prisons,” he said.

“The time for transformative change is now,” the professor concluded.

“The only question is whether we have the will to pursue it.”

Arguing for “abolition,” Hill said the “reality is that Black-on-Black crime is a myth, and that Black and white people routinely commit crimes at similar rates, but Black people are overwhelmingly targeted for arrest.”

However, readers of Hill’s column pointed out in the comment section that he linked to a study spotlighted by the Southern Poverty Law Center that actually refutes his claim. It found that black-on-black crime is 25% higher than white-on-white crime. That understates the difference, however, according to most studies, which find that while black people are only 13% of the population, they commit about 50% of all violent crime.

In an interview Wednesday with BBC News, a black former police officer, Brandon Tatum, noted that statistic while emphasizing that only a small fraction of the black population is engaged in crime. [According to the Centers for Disease Control, blacks, ages 10 to 43, die at a homicide rate 13 times the rate of whites. Bureau of Justice statistics show that in the 75 largest counties, blacks are 15% of the population but make up about 60% of all murder and robbery defendants. And, nationwide, blacks commit homicides at eight times the rate of whites and Hispanics combined. In Chicago, 80% of shootings are committed by blacks, although they are less than a third of the population. Whites commit 2%, but are less than a third.]

Many black scholars, including Civil Rights era leader Bob Woodson, believe the No. 1 reason for the disproporationate involvement in crime is the breakdown of families in impoverished communities fueled by the welfare programs implemented in the 1960s as a response to the evils of slavery and segregation. Those well-intentioned programs, have made fathers expendable, Woodson argues. Fatherless, he points out, is a major indicator of crime and poverty, with more than 70% of blacks now born out of wedlock.

Woodson said in an interview Tuesday night that Black Lives Matter and leaders such as Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and Rev. Al Sharpton push the false “systemic racism narrative” to deflect attention from their failed policies.

Readers of Hill’s column also pointed out the professor didn’t mention the fact, shown by bodycam video, that the officer shot Bryant as she was about to stab another black woman. In the case of Adam Toledo, bodycam video shows the boy, who was with a gang member in the middle of the night, had a gun, and a forensic probe indicated he had fired it.

On Thursday in Columbus, Ohio State students occupied the student union building on campus, demanding the university cut ties with Columbus police.

The student newspaper said the protesters won’t tolerate policing reform that does not result in abolition.

Commenting on the Bryant case, Democratic activist Stacey Abrams said Thursday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” with Joy Reid that Republicans “will not stop men from murdering women of color.”

Last week, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., called for abolishing police.

The member of the far-left “Squad” in Congress charged that the shooting death by a white, female police officer of Daunte Walker in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, on April 11 was not an accident.

“Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist,” she wrote on Twitter.

“Daunte Wright was met with aggression & violence. I am done with those who condone government funded murder,” the congresswoman said.

“No more policing, incarceration, and militarization. It can’t be reformed.”

‘It ripped the blinders off for the whole world to see’

While the death of George Floyd in police custody has become the impetus for countless measures to address “systemic racism” in America, prosecutors in the Chauvin trial never accused the former Minneapolis officer of racial animus.

Biden, on the other hand, called Floyd’s death “a murder in the full light of day, and it ripped the blinders off for the whole world to see the systemic racism … that is a stain our nation’s soul” and “the knee on the neck of justice for Black Americans.”

On Wednesday, the Biden Justice Department announced it has opened a civil investigation of “systemic” issues in the Minneapolis Police Department.

A similar investigation, of the Philadelphia Police Department, was conducted in 2015 by the Justice Department under President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder. The probe found white police officers were less likely than black or Hispanic officers to shoot unarmed black suspects.

That finding has been confirmed by many national studies. In 2016, for example, a Washington State University study found that police officers are three times less likely to shoot unarmed black suspects than unarmed white suspects, the Washington Post reported. Manhattan Institute scholar Heather Mac Donald, in a presentation last August, showed that the claim that “policing in the U.S. is lethally racist” is provably false, presenting three types of evidence: the raw numbers, individual high-profile cases and academic research, WND reported.

“A police officer is up to 30 times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male is to be killed by a police officer,” she said, citing analyses by mainstream researchers of available data.

Holder’s Justice Department also investigated the fatal shooting of Michael Brown by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014. The DOJ confirmed a grand jury’s decision not to indict officer Darren Wilson, concluding the iconic “hands up, don’t shoot” claim was false.

Most “Conservative” News Outlets Are on the Big Tech Teat

Not long ago, conservative media was not beholden to anyone. Today, most sites are stuck on the Big Tech gravy train.

I’ll keep this short. The rise of Pandemic Panic Theater, massive voter fraud, and other “taboo” topics have neutered a majority of conservative news sites. You’ll notice they are very careful about what topics they tackle. Sure, they’ll attack Critical Race Theory, Antifa, and the Biden-Harris regime, but you won’t see them going after George Soros, Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, or the Deep State, among others.

The reason is simple. They are beholden to Big Tech, and Big Tech doesn’t allow certain topics to be discussed or they’ll cut you off. Far too many conservative news outlets rely on Google, Facebook, and Twitter for the bulk of their traffic. They depend on big checks from Google ads to keep the sites running. I don’t necessarily hold it against them. We all do what we need to do to survive. I just wish more would do like we have, which is to cut out Big Tech altogether.

We don’t get Google checks. We don’t have Facebook or Twitter buttons on our stories. We don’t have a YouTube Channel (banned), an Instagram profile (never made one), or a TikTok (no thanks, CCP). We’re not perfect, but we’re doing everything we can to not owe anything to anyone… other than our readers. We owe YOU the truth. We owe YOU the facts that others won’t reveal about topics that others won’t tackle. And we owe America, this great land that allows us to take hold of these opportunities.

Like I said, I don’t hold other conservative sites under too much scrutiny over their choices. It’s easy for people to point fingers when we’re not the ones paying their bills or supporting their families. I just wish there were more who would make the bold move. Today, only a handful of other major conservative news outlets have broken free from the Big Tech teat. Of course, we need help.

The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring proper news and opinions to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal or Bitcoin as well. Bitcoin: 3A1ELVhGgrwrypwTJhPwnaTVGmuqyQrMB8

Our network is currently comprised of nine sites:

  • NOQ Report
  • Conservative Playlist
  • Truth. Based. Media.
  • Freedom First Network
  • Based Underground
  • Uncanceled News
  • American Conservative Movement
  • Conservative Playbook
  • Our Gold Guy

We are also building partnerships with great conservative sites like The Liberty Daily and The Epoch Times to advance the message as loudly as possible, and we’re always looking for others with which to partner.

Some of our content is spread across multiple sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.

While donations are the best way to help, you can also support us by buying through our sponsors:

  • MyPillow: Use promo code “NOQ” to get up to 66% off AND you’ll be helping a patriotic, America First company.
  • ZStack: Improve your immune system with the Z-Stack protocol or rejuvenate your body from vaccines or shedding with Z-DTox by Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.

  • MyPatriotSupply: Stock up on long-term food, survival gear, and other things that you’ll need just in case things don’t recover and we keep heading towards apocalypse.

We know we could make a lot more money if we sold out like so many “conservative” publications out there. You won’t find Google ads on our site for a reason. Yes, they’re lucrative, but I don’t like getting paid by minions of Satan (I don’t like Google very much if you couldn’t tell).

Time is short. As the world spirals towards The Great Reset, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.

Thank you and God Bless,
