The Big Easy Conservative is read in 31 states and 7 countries, so there is a very good chance many of you have not heard the name of a handyman who was gunned down on the 10th of April in Kenner, Louisiana, a suburb of New Orleans.
His name is Lawrence Herr. His girlfriend affectionately called him “Peanut.”
Here is Mr. Herr’s girlfriend, Jean Foster, along with a statement…
Here are Mr. Herr’s killers, who have confessed to their deed… and they admitted they simply “wanted to kill a white person.”
The Kenner Police arrested these men within hours as a consequence of home security cameras and a positive identification of the silver Mercedes Benz they used as they circled the block several times scoping out Mr. Herr as he worked to install a mailbox in front of a rental property on Georgetown Drive.
Across all 31 states and 7 countries, if Mr. Herr were a 66 year old black handyman killed while doing a simple task of labor, and Mr. Matthews and Mr. Holmes were 23 and 25 year old white men who had admitted to detectives that they “wanted to kill a black man,” you would, without doubt, know Mr. Herr’s name. You’d be seeing his face and hearing his story weeks later for the 100th time on your cable news channel at this very moment.
Mr. Herr’s face would have been painted as a building-sized mural.
Black Lives Matter, along with their Antifa allies, would have already set several square blocks of New Orleans randomly aflame. The Reverend Al Sharpton would have delivered Mr. Herr’s eulogy, Michelle Obama would have attended the funeral, and a high-powered wealthy celebrity would have purchased an ornate casket for the white-murdered black handyman.
The black Mr. Herr’s surviving family - and certainly his white girlfriend, too - would have already posed for photographs with Joe and Jill Biden at the White House, with Kamala Harris and her thoroughly-insignificant husband, and with the lesbian black Marxist racist bigoted press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre.
Of course, we all know better.
None of that will happen for Lawrence Herr of Kenner, Louisiana. None of it ever will.
Mr. Herr,
Your life ended tragically because black people in this country have a major violence problem and neither they nor their enablers will admit to it and have no interest in truly solving it. Very disproportionately, black people kill white people in cold blood. Very disproportionately, the media favor black people and disfavor white people in these circumstances.
White lives do not matter. Certainly, Mr. Herr, your life did not matter.
Mr. Herr, your name will never be said and your life will be forgotten for no other reason than you are white.
Vicious racists in this country - the REAL racists, not the fake made-up “white supremacist” racists that Joe Biden pulls out of a hat at his politically expedient convenience - the black bigots and their white enablers in media and government, care about you, Mr. Herr, as much as they care about any white person who humbly goes about his life hurting no one, helping others, working a fair day’s labor. That is to say, obviously, they don’t care.
We will not forget you, though. And we will write your name and pray for your memory and your survivors each day, aware of the injustice that accompanies your heartless killing, knowing full well, because this writer is a simple white handyman too, that but for the grace of God, it could have been me installing that mailbox one day in April.
It could have been me, Mr. Herr. And it could have been any one of us, if we are white.
And they all would not care.
I am very glad that you brought this to our attention. I would not have known if not for your concern for what is right and your fight against what is wrong. May you be blessed in all your endeavors.
