Racist Maryland man who fatally stabbed black New Yorker admits his intent to kill African-American

The 28-year-old man busted for fatally stabbing a black stranger in Midtown on Tuesday has told cops he came the city from Baltimore to kill African-Americans, sources said.

James Harris Jackson, an Army veteran who served in Afghanistan and is a member of a documented hate group from Maryland, surrendered to cops just after midnight Tuesday, sources said.

“You need to arrest me. I have the knife in my coat,” Jackson told police officers after marching into the Times Square substation, sources said. “I’m the person you’re looking for.”

He later told police he was motivated by rage against black men who get romantically involved with white women, sources said.

“It is believed he was specifically intending to target male blacks. It’s been well over 10 years that he has been harboring his hate towards blacks,” said NYPD Assistant Chief William Aubrey, head of Manhattan detectives.

“The reason why he chose New York because it is the media capital of the world and he wanted to make a statement.”

Video surveillance “proves that the victim was attacked because he was black,” he said.

Of his VICTIM.

Motherfucking Media also universally points out that this racist murdering shitstain was "well Dressed"

Holy shit I can hardly contain myself. I pointed out how fucked up this was while getting a coffee this morning and all I got from the people in the shop were the same expressions you'd see on a gaffed tuna

They aren't real Americans. We built this country. Those terrorist assholes need to get in their place. Both the thug - and the Daily News.

I've gone evil.

Reagan and Dole yes. Dole sat up at that convention all happy like this past summer. Reagan put the dehumanization of black Americans on steroids.
