Ted Nugent: A 'safe bet' to assume all criminals are part of a 'plague' of young black men

Right-wing 1970s rocker Ted Nugent published another racist tirade in World Net Daily, Salon reports.

In it, he complains that "from the stories I have read on the Internet" about the shootings of two Ferguson, Missouri police officers, "the media have made it a point not to describe the suspect or suspects the police are searching for."

He then speculates that, "based on crime stats in Ferguson...it would be a safe bet to assume the two thugs the police are looking for are black males between the age of 15 and 25."

Moreover, "it would also be a safe bet the two thugs being searched for were raised by a single parent, have criminal records, are high school dropouts, don’t have jobs and are very likely to be members of a gang."

This, he writes, "just a random Nuge hunch."

He claims that these allegedly black "Ferguson thugs" are merely a byproduct of the "plague of black violence [that] has infested our inner cities," the "root cause" of which is "liberalism and their insane cult of denial."

"It is liberalism that engineered and created the very conditions that have decimated and destroyed black American families and their communities," he continues. "Astonishingly and regretfully, the overwhelming majority of black Americans continue to vote for the very political party that has destroyed them."

"It is deaf, dumb and blind liberalism that has shoveled over $20 trillion into Fedzilla’s welfare crack programs over the past 50 years. Their big lie is that this was all done to eliminate poverty. What it really has done is waste this gargantuan pile of money while doing nothing to eliminate poverty," he says.

And "the bullet-proof truth is that our hard-earned tax dollars were torched by Democrats to create a permanent voting block out of black Americans. Money is the bait, and they took it, hook, line and sinker. Now President Obama has proposed shoveling another $10 trillion over the next 10 years for more Fedzilla welfare crack."

Nugent frequently uses racist language to speak about African-Americans. Earlier this year, for example, he referred to President Barack Obama as a "subhuman mongrel."
