Seeing Is Believing No Matter How Blind The NAACP Pretends To Be
Democrats and the mainstream media spent four years trying to convince us that our eyes were deceiving us when we watched Joe Biden stumble around and manufacture word salads. We were watching a mentally diminished man who was deteriorating daily, and we knew it. Still, that didn’t stop every Democrat, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, and others from lying to our faces while they insisted that we didn’t know what we were talking about.
They tried to make us question ourselves, wanting us to doubt what we knew to be true, but in the end, they were caught in the web of their own lies, and on November 5th, we were vindicated.
Now, the NAACP is trying to do the same thing. In a despicable attempt to turn a wrong into a right, they are defending an aggressor while shunning the victim.
On March 4th, Alaila Everett, a senior at I.C. Norcom High School in Portsmouth, was running the second leg of the 4×200-meter relay when she struck Kaelen Tucker, a junior from Brookville High School, in the head with her metal baton as Tucker was passing her in the race. The assault took place during the Virginia State High School League Championships at Liberty University in Lynchburg.
A video of the incident clearly shows that the attack was intentional. After being hit, Tucker staggered and reached for her head before going off the track. She dropped her baton and was attended to by medical personnel shortly after the incident. Later, she was diagnosed with a concussion, which she reported to ABC affiliate WVEC in Hampton, Virginia.
“I was so in disbelief, I didn’t know what happened,” Tucker told WVEC
For her part, Everett contends that the baton strike was accidental.
“I would never do that on purpose,” Everett said. “That’s not in my character.”
Everett claims that her arm became stuck during the race, and her baton inadvertently struck Tucker as they neared the corner of the track.
“Her arm was literally hitting the baton until she got a little ahead, and my arm got stuck like this,” she claimed while holding a baton to emphasize the movement.
Her family naturally defended Everett by blaming Tucker for the entire incident. They argue that the video indicates Tucker’s closeness to their daughter led to an accidental collision. According to the family, Tucker was running too near Everett when she attempted to cut ahead, causing Everett to lose her balance and resulting in the baton making contact with Tucker.
It’s a nice story, but it is also a total lie. Once again, we are supposed to deny what our eyes can clearly see. What Everett and her family are selling, we are not buying. It’s one thing to try to defend your daughter’s undefendable actions, but it’s another to blame Tucker for what happened.
Tucker’s story matches the video.
“When we get onto the other side of the track, we have to cross to lane one, you have to merge in, and as I was coming up on her she kind of made me get cut off a little bit so I backed away. When we got to the curve, she kept bumping me in my arm, and when we got off the curve, I finally passed her, and that was when she hit me with the baton,” Tucker told WSLS.
Even more appalling is that Everett held a rally to gain support for her stance. In a tearful address to the attendees, she thanked her supporters for cheering her on after she clearly assaulted an opposing runner with a baton during the race.
Everett once again insisted that she was innocent of the act everyone witnessed her committing.
“I would never harm anybody. I’m not a fighter, I’m not even confrontational, I wouldn’t even do that on purpose, and I thank y’all for believing in me. I love y’all.”
The Portsmouth NAACP supports Everett and urges everyone to disregard their own observations and common sense, instead believing her claim that she “lost her…balance.”
“Alaila is NOT AN ATTACKER, and media headlines that allude towards that in any way is shameful,” they said in a statement.
“We are committed collectively to ensuring that the criminal justice system, which we feel is not warranted in this situation, is executed fairly and based on due process.” They also called for Everett to be “void of any criminal proceedings.”
“From all accounts, she is an exceptional young leader and scholar whose athletic talent has been well-documented and recognized across our state. She has carried herself with integrity both on and off the field, and any narrative that adjudicates her guilty of any criminal activity is a violation of her due process rights.”
Sorry, being a good athlete and a nice person “most” of the time does not adjudicate her from the assault she committed during the race. She would be much better off admitting that she lost control for a second or reacted badly in the moment, but trying to convince us that it wasn’t done deliberately is useless.
Everett has been charged with a misdemeanor charge of assault and battery. She deserves that and more. Her painting of herself as the victim is disgusting, as is the NCAACP’s defense of her actions.
Hopefully, Tucker’s pain and suffering will be recognized; the truth is right there on tape. These are the facts, and they are indisputable.
