And you were right to be one, because a dark-skinned Guatemalan called Sebastian Zapeta was clearly identified on CCTV as the culprit and is now in police custody. In Western societies, non-Whites commit a vastly disproportionate share of crime, particularly violent and sexual crime. But it’s precisely when people are right about racial patterns of crime that the left call them haters and try to silence them. As I’ve pointed out before, the supreme commandment of leftism is “Thou shalt not recognize patterns — except when they’re not there.” Leftism demands that we ignore real patterns of non-Whites harming Whites and accept non-existent patterns of Whites harming non-Whites. That’s why Britain has a martyr-cult for a Black youth called Stephen Lawrence, but no martyr-cult for a White woman called Tracey Mertens.

The martyr-cult of Stephen Lawrence

Who was Tracey Mertens? Well, in the eyes of feminists and other leftists, she was a nobody who deserved oblivion, not attention. Stephen Lawrence was entirely different. He was one of thousands of Blacks murdered in Britain, but he had the rare distinction of being murdered by Whites, not by other Blacks. That’s why he now has an extensive and lavishly funded martyr-cult devoted to promoting a gigantic leftist lie: that cruel and vicious Whites are a permanent threat to saintly and suffering non-Whites. Features of the martyr-cult include the following:

∙ Stephen Lawrence Day, an annual memorial for the martyr created by the so-called Conservative prime minister Theresa May and strategically placed on 22nd April, the day before commemoration of England’s national saint St George and Shakespeare’s traditional birthday.

∙ The Stephen Lawrence Research Centre, which works to demonize Whites and sanctify non-Whites at De Montfort University in the ethnically enriched city of Leicester, where Muslims and Hindus are now re-enacting the tribal feuds of their highly corrupt, violent and rape-friendly homelands.

∙ The Stephen Lawrence Memorial Centre, which works to demonize Whites and sanctify non-Whites in ethnically enriched south-east London, where Blacks murder, rape and rob all other races at vast disproportionate rates.

∙ A Damehood for the martyr’s mother Doreen Lawrence, who now sits in the House of Lords lecturing the White British on ethics and policing. Dame Doreen comes from the highly corrupt, violent and rape-friendly island of Jamaica, which has more murders each year than Britain, despite having a much smaller population. If murders committed in Britain by Jamaicans and extra-judicial murders by the Jamaican police were added to the stats for Jamaica, the discrepancy would be even greater.

∙ The Stephen Lawrence Inquiry in 1999, initiated by the half-Jewish Home Secretary Jack Straw and starring the fully Jewish anti-racism activist Dr Richard Stone. The Inquiry condemned the British police as “institutionally racist” and, like the George Floyd hysteria in America, led to reduced policing of Blacks and other non-Whites, followed by an entirely predictable increase in murder and rape by non-Whites.

Mary-Ann Leneghan and Kris Donald, horrifically murdered by non-Whites and therefore entirely unsuitable for martyr-cults

The full direct and indirect costs of the martyr-cult of Stephen Lawrence must be in the billions of pounds by now. But the far more numerous White victims of non-White killers have not been deemed worthy of a fraction of that funding or attention. There are no martyr-cults for the White children Kris Donald and Mary-Ann Leneghan, who were murdered by non-Whites under far worse circumstances than Stephen Lawrence. 15-year-old Kris Donald was kidnapped by Pakistani Muslims, driven for hundreds of miles as he pleaded for his life, then doused in gasoline and burned alive. 16-year-old Mary-Ann Leneghan was raped and tortured for hours by Blacks, told again and again that she was going to die, then stabbed repeatedly before having her throat slit.

Forgotten by feminists

But there’s no martyr-cult for them. And there’s no martyr-cult for the White woman Tracey Mertens, also murdered under far worse circumstances than Stephen Lawrence. But who was Tracey Mertens? A week ago, I would have had no idea myself. However, by coincidence, her horrific murder-by-incineration has been back in the news at the same time as the horrific murder-by-incineration on the New York subway. But the stories have more in common than their simultaneous appearance in the media. As you read about Tracey Mertens’ murder, please note how it was perfect for a feminist martyr-cult. Except for one thing:

Tracey Mertens, incinerated by Blacks, forgotten by feminists (image from BBC)

The daughter of a woman brutally murdered 30 years ago when she was set on fire in a churchyard has said she will never truly rest until the killers are found. Kelly Hill was 11 when her mum Tracey Mertens walked out the door on 23 December 1994 to pick up some documents from their former home in Birmingham. She never saw her again. Tracey was bundled into a car by two men and driven to Eaton, near Congleton in Cheshire, where she was doused in petrol. [The report does not add “and set on fire” — the BBC was reluctant to state the full horror, for reasons that will become obvious.] She died the following day.

“I can’t let go until I know why and what’s happened – and someone gets in court for it,” Mrs Hill said. “It’s just like she’s forgotten about, but I can’t forget.”

Ms Hill, now 41, said she remembered hearing the door of their new house in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, close as her mum left. “I woke up and I ran over to the window and she was just getting in the car,” she said. “I knocked on the window and I waved to her and she waved back. That was the last time I saw her.”

The family, including her brother Daniel, who was 10 at the time, and father Joey, had moved up north that winter. Tracey had gone to pick up the benefits book she had left at her former home in Nechells, Birmingham, when two men turned up at the door. The following details are known because despite the extensive injuries Tracey had suffered, she was able to tell police what happened in the last hours of her life. The men asked “where’s Joey?” before bundling her into a yellow Ford Escort.

She was driven 60 miles to isolated Christ Church, where she was set on fire in the grounds. Tracey described her attackers as two black men with Birmingham accents, but who also spoke Jamaican Patois. Tracey died the following day, on Christmas Eve. (“‘I can’t let go until I know who killed my mum’,” BBC News, 23rd December 2024)

The one thing that prevented Tracey Mertens’ becoming a feminist martyr is the race of her killers. They were Black and their horrific crime revealed the truth about the bestiality of Blackness. That’s why feminists have ignored Tracey Mertens. Her daughter used too many words when she said: “It’s just like she’s forgotten about.” In fact, the White female Tracey Mertens is definitely forgotten, quite unlike the Black male Stephen Lawrence. Yet by every objective criterion her murder in 1994 was far worse than the murder of Stephen Lawrence in 1993. He was stabbed twice after a chance encounter and might easily have survived. She was incinerated with vicious sadism and given no chance of escape or survival. He died quickly and with relatively little suffering. She died slowly and with horrific suffering. She was a mother with young children. He was a teenager with no children. His killers proved themselves a threat only to young men from racial minorities. Her killers proved themselves a threat to both sexes and all races.

Excluding Blacks is good for Whites

And her killers may have burned her alive simply to strike at her husband Joey Mertens. Reading between the lines of that story at the BBC, I conclude that her husband had offended Black gangsters in Birmingham in some way and that the Black gangsters punished him by incinerating his wife. He must have known how vicious and dangerous they were, but he didn’t ensure that his wife was safe from them. That would be another example of how men cause harm to women, but feminists have never given the murder of Tracey Mertens even a fraction of the attention it deserves.

If they had, they would have found another stark contrast with the murder of Stephen Lawrence. On utilitarian grounds, the killers of Stephen Lawrence can be said to have been protecting women rather than harming them. They were seeking to keep Blacks out of a White working-class area of London. Excluding Blacks is good for Whites and particularly for White women. After all, Blacks commit rape at much higher rates and in worse ways. Gang-rape is a Black speciality in Britain. And just look at Britain’s most prolific gerontophile rapist, a Black called Delroy Easton Grant who raped scores or even hundreds of elderly White women in London, destroying the peace of their final years and in some cases undoubtedly bringing about their premature death.

Inverting the truth

Like the unidentified killers of Tracey Mertens, Delroy Easton Grant was from Jamaica, the Caribbean island that has supplied thousands of murderers, rapists, thieves and tax-eaters to Britain since treacherous politicians imposed non-White immigration against the clearly expressed opposition of the White majority. As I’ve often noted before: “Blacks Blight Britain.” But it’s precisely because non-Whites blight Britain that there are no martyr-cults for the White victims Tracey Mertens, Kris Donald and Mary-Ann Leneghan. Their horrific murders revealed the truth about the harm done by non-Whites to Whites and leftists are determined to suppress that truth. Indeed, they are determined to go further: not merely to suppress the truth but to invert it. That’s why they created the martyr-cult of Stephen Lawrence, which is devoted to promoting the gigantic leftist lie that cruel and vicious Whites are an ominous and omnipresent threat to the lives and welfare of gentle, enriching non-Whites.

The murder of Tracey Mertens shatters that gigantic leftist lie, which is why she has no martyr-cult. Like the rape-gangs of Rotherham, her murder proves that feminists have no real concern for the lives and welfare of ordinary women and girls. Instead, like all other mainstream leftists, they are concerned with only one thing: advancing the cause of leftism. They want power and privilege for themselves, and have no qualms about sacrificing ordinary women to gain those all-important things. Non-white immigration causes enormous and growing harm to White women across the West, but non-Whites are footsoldiers in the leftist war on the West, so feminists are fully in support of open borders. In other words, feminism promotes femicide, or the murder of women. At the same time, feminists pretend to oppose femicide. For example, the Black male feminist Keith Fraser has recently issued a stirring “call to action for men and boys”:

Today is White Ribbon Day, an international campaign observed on 25 November each year, calling for the elimination of violence against women and girls.

As the Chair of the Youth Justice Board (YJB) and a former police officer, I’ve had the privilege of working across organisations that help to shape the lives of children and young adults, particularly those caught up in the youth justice system. My personal and professional journey has been driven by a commitment to safety and positive societal change. My time as a police officer meant I have witnessed first-hand the devastating impact of violence against women and girls. This issue is not just something we read about in headlines; it’s a daily reality for countless women. It tears apart individuals, families and communities.

White Ribbon Day offers a powerful opportunity for men and boys to be allies for women and girls. I myself take an active role in promoting gender equality and challenging behaviours and attitudes that perpetuate violence against women and girls, and today I am calling on the youth justice sector to do the same. It is so important to have positive male role models within these spaces and beyond. White Ribbon Day also marks the start of the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, which runs until Human Rights Day on 10 December. (“White Ribbon Day 2024 — a call to action for men and boys,” The official British government website, November 2024)

In fact, Keith Fraser was issuing a call for posturing about violence against women and girls, not a call to action about the problem. Leftists like him take action only to increase violence against women and girls. Those “16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence” took place at the same time as some horrific stories about male violence were in the British media. Men were on trial for committing bestial crimes against these women and girls:

∙ Natalie Shotter, a 37-year-old White woman who was orally raped to death while lying unconscious on a bench in a London park

∙ Sara Sharif, a 10-year-old Polish-Pakistani girl who had been viciously beaten and tortured for years before being murdered — her autopsy revealed “10 spinal fractures and further fractures to her right collar bone, both shoulder blades, both arms, both hands, three separate fingers, bones near the wrist in each hand, two ribs and her hyoid bone in the neck”

∙ Elianne Andam, a 15-year-old Black schoolgirl stabbed to death in London after trying to help a female friend retrieve belongings from an ex-boyfriend

∙ Amie Gray, a 34-year-old White woman stabbed to death on a tourist beach as she picnicked with a White female friend, who was also savagely attacked

The racially diverse female victims of bestial male violence and their non-White killers

Every one of those female victims is worthy of a feminist martyr-cult but will never receive one. Why not? It’s very simple: because the male killers are all UUSFLL rather than useful for leftism. That is, the killers are Utterly Un-Suitable For Leftist Lies, because all of them are non-White. Even worse, three of them are Muslims. Natalie Shotter was raped to death by a Black Muslim called Mohamed Iidow (sic). Sara Sharif was beaten and tortured to death by her own father, a Pakistani Muslim called Urfan Sharif. Elianne Andam was stabbed to death by a Black teenager called Hassan Sentamu. Amie Gray was stabbed to death by an “Iraqi-Thai Muslim” called Nasen Saadi, a criminology student who appears to have been motivated by a sexual fetish about the random murder of women. The Guardian reported that “he may have taken sexual pleasure in the killing,” because while “he was being held in the high-security Belmarsh prison in south-east London, awaiting trial, he asked a female officer if the killing was making headlines and then masturbated in front of her.”

An attractive White and two ugly Blacks: Tracey Mertens compared with Stephen Lawrence and George Floyd

But you can be sure that the Guardian and rest of the mainstream British media will soon end any discussion of Nasen Saadi and the other killers. Like many thousands of other violent and depraved criminals across the West, Saadi and Company are UUSFLL — Utterly Un-Suitable For Leftist Lies. That is, they’re non-White and reveal the truth about non-White pathologies, so feminists and other leftists cannot use their depraved crimes to advance the cause of leftism. That’s why their female victims will soon be forgotten, just as Tracey Mertens was before them. And there’s one more key contrast to note between Tracey Mertens and Stephen Lawrence — and between Tracey Mertens and George Floyd, the thuggish Black criminal who inspired a world-wide martyr-cult after his self-inflicted death in 2020. Tracey Mertens was attractive; Lawrence and Floyd were ugly. By basing mendacious martyr-cults on two ugly Blacks, leftists prove that they hate the middle term of Belloc’s Godly triad just as much as they hate the terms that flank it on left and right. This is what the great Catholic writer Hilaire Belloc said in 1936:

[T]here is (as the greatest of the ancient Greeks discovered) a certain indissoluble Trinity of Truth, Beauty and Goodness. You cannot deny or attack one of these three without at the same time denying or attacking both the others. Therefore with the advance of this new and terrible enemy against the Faith and all that civilization which the Faith produces, there is coming not only a contempt for beauty but a hatred of it; and immediately upon the heels of this there appears a contempt and hatred for virtue. (The Great Heresies, chapter 6, “The Modern Phase”)

Belloc was a highly insightful and honest man, so it should come as no surprise that he has long been condemned for “anti-Semitism.” As Andrew Joyce has described in his review of Belloc’s The Jews (1922), Belloc identified and condemned clear patterns of Jewish predation and subversion within White societies. If he were alive today, Belloc would readily understand and explain why the modern West is consumed by a cult of minority-worship that insists Whites can do no right and non-Whites can do no wrong.

Yes, Belloc would have seen and said that minority-worship is yet another example of Jewish subversion. The cult centers on Blacks, who are the most harmful, obnoxious, unintelligent, unattractive and unproductive of all minorities. In other words, they are the group that least resembles Whites. And that’s precisely why the hostile Jewish elite selected Blacks for transformation into the archetypal saintly victims of White oppression. The martyr-cults of Stephen Lawrence and George Floyd don’t merely deny racial reality: they turn the reality on its head and proclaim that sinful Whites harm saintly non-Whites. Like the sadistic murder on the New York subway, the sadistic murder of Tracey Mertens in an English churchyard demolishes those leftist lies. That’s why feminists will ignore the murder in New York just as they’ve ignored the murder in England. Like leftism as a whole, feminism is an ethically and intellectually bankrupt ideology that works to increase femicide and female suffering, not to end them. And like leftism as a whole, femicidal feminism expresses the will of Jews, not of Whites.
