Hal Netkin to Attack Again!

by Fredric L. Rice Saturday, Jun. 25, 2005 at 1:23 AM
frice@skeptictank.org

The Baldwin Park anti-hate rally scheduled for June 25'th (two days from now) invokes a question: Will the people be safe from Hal Netkin?

Okay, so there's a serious side to opposing white supremists and there's the entertainment side of at least trying to enjoy ourselves as we gather among our neighbors in unity to oppose hatred and bigotry.

And on the entertainment side, just today I was thinking how amusing it would be to create a cardboard van or car and drive it into anti-hate activists during the Baldwin Park 2 anti-hate rally, yelling, "I'm Hal Netkin! I'm white! I can get away with anything!" and see if anybody else finds it as amusing as I would.

Unfortunately I hadn't thought of such a probably stupid stunt a week ago which would have given me time to build such a car and paint "NETKIN" on the license plate, but maybe someone out there already has a cardboard car that would be amusing to use.

Now the police checked the guy's skin hue and decided it was white enough that no crime was committed and let him go, and I've got to wonder how a negro or someone with dark skin would have fared after running down a bunch of white people holding an anti-hate rally. I'd expect that person would be sitting in prison right now awaiting trial if he couldn't pass the skin hue test.

So wouldn't it be amusing to stage a bunch of Netkin assaults using different drivers, depicting and demonstrating the police's response each time?

Ah, well... Too late. Maybe next time.

-- My opinions only, of course.

Sure
