The father of slain Texas teenager Austin Metcalf blasted the parents of Karmelo Anthony as “cowards,” accusing them of making the high-profile murder case about race. 
Jeff Metcalf made the comments shortly after a jury sentenced the 19-year-old Anthony to 35 years in prison for murdering 17-year-old Metcalf with a knife at a track meet in Texas in April 2025. 
After Anthony&#8217;s sentencing, Metcalf spoke on a <a href="https://rumble.com/v7b3yt0-jinxedsip-exclusive-the-jeff-metcalf-interview-with-sarah-fields-ep.-53.html?e9s=src_v1_s%2Csrc_v1_s_o&amp;sci=71c8a082-9d9c-4ea5-835d-2810ef2eb2d9">three-hour stream</a> hosted by independent journalist Sarah Fields on the JinxedSip podcast. He gave his thoughts on the trial, the racial issues at play during the trial, and his emotions about the lengthy ordeal. 
Anthony&#8217;s parents, Andrew Anthony and Kayla Hayles, blamed the conviction and sentencing of their son on racism in a recent interview with CBS.
“Drew Anthony. Kayla. You&#8217;re cowards. You wouldn&#8217;t even show up for your son&#8217;s sentencing or victim&#8217;s statement impacts. You abandoned your kid. You left him there. I guess he&#8217;s no more use to you because you can&#8217;t get any more GoFundMe money or [GiveSendGo] money. You are grifters. You should be ashamed of yourself,” he said. “You raised that child, and I swear to God, CPS should come check on those other three that you still have.”
Anthony’s family raised over $600,000 after the murder. 
“You never once admitted or took accountability. You tried to play victim. The real victim is the one who died, not the one who shoved a knife in his chest,” he added. “I come to pray with you and show the world we can close the gap of this unbelievable racial divide. And what&#8217;d you do? Widen the gap even further.”
Metcalf was referring to how he was turned away from a press conference hosted by the Anthony family after the killing. 
“I feel sorry for that young man,” Metcalf said of Anthony. “He&#8217;s fixing to live a living hell. Not that he doesn&#8217;t deserve it. Yes, he does. But I&#8217;m human. And I&#8217;m sorry. I don&#8217;t wish harm or ill will on anyone. It&#8217;s not the Christian thing to do, man. It&#8217;s not the way I was raised. It&#8217;s not what I was taught. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s right or wrong. I just know it is what it is.”
Metcalf also commented on the racial politics at play in the case. Leftist activists claim that Anthony was only convicted because he was black and have complained that there were no black jurors. 
“Because you can&#8217;t be unbiased, you dumb sh*ts. If you answer the question, ‘I can&#8217;t send a black man to jail because he&#8217;s black,’ they&#8217;re not getting on the jury. You&#8217;re so unintelligent, you can&#8217;t even fill out a form correctly,” Metcalf said. “You don&#8217;t even know who your f*cking daddy is because 78% of you don&#8217;t have your father in the home anymore. You got baby mamas running around with eight kids so they can get EBT cards to feed you all. You think I&#8217;m being racist? No, I&#8217;m being real, because [it’s not] only black people. White people do the same sh*t.  I&#8217;ll call them out just as hard as I&#8217;ll call you out.”
Metcalf also said that he raised his sons not to judge people by the color of their skin. 
“We don&#8217;t see color. We&#8217;re not racist. We have friends of all diversities, nationality, ethnicities. It doesn&#8217;t matter,” he said. ‘Justice doesn&#8217;t see color. Hate doesn&#8217;t see color. Love doesn&#8217;t see color.”
He also said he never wanted race to be part of the trial.
“From day one, I said this was never about race. Please, don&#8217;t make it about race and don&#8217;t politicize it. And what did you do? You chose both. The race card, black fatigue. It&#8217;s real. I&#8217;m sorry. You have embarrassed your own culture and race. Don&#8217;t get me wrong. We got a lot of [white] people that embarrass the sh*t out of me too. But you guys, you got a patent on that sh*t. And the only people who&#8217;re going to change it are you. Don&#8217;t blame the white person &#8217;cause we can&#8217;t change it. But you&#8217;re gonna blame the white person for every f*cking thing else.”
“You can do everything in America that I can do. Tell me one thing, you can&#8217;t do that I can&#8217;t do. We all have equal rights,” he added. 
At one point during the stream, he referred to Anthony as a “watermelon felon&#8221; while mocking the activists who have tried to make the case about race. 
“Let me make something racist up so &#8230; go viral. I got a new name for Mello, OK? Because he was such this little boy you [were] always trying to portray. How about ‘watermelon felon?’  How&#8217;s that one strike you?” he said. “I hope he enjoyed his first night in his cell last night because he&#8217;s going to have many nights to think about what the f*ck he did. I forgave him, so I don&#8217;t carry the hate and the anger.”
The interview with Fields was the first after a gag order ended after the trial wrapped up on Tuesday. 
“Jeff Metcalf was given the floor without interruption. After being under a gag order for a year, he could finally speak raw and unfiltered,” Fields <a href="https://x.com/SarahisCensored/status/2064940589104136689">said</a>. “THIS is what independent journalism is about. The mainstream media never would have dared.”

Austin Metcalf’s Father Explodes On Karmelo Anthony’s Parents

Austin Metcalf

Karmelo Anthony

Murder

Racism

Texas

A Howard University professor is under fire for blaming Austin Metcalf’s father for not teaching his son enough about black culture, which she seemed to insinuate resulted in his murder.
Karmelo Anthony was convicted Tuesday of murdering Austin at a track meet in April 2025 and was sentenced to 35 years in prison.
Austin’s father, Jeff Metcalf, admonished Anthony for making the case about race and told him he’s been feeling “pure unfiltered rage” while grieving the loss of his son.
“I said from day one, this was never about race, please don’t politicize it,” Jeff said. “But what did you choose to do, both. It’s about right and wrong. We’re all humans. We all bleed the same color.”
“You failed your parents, you failed yourself, and you failed society. You don’t belong in this community,” he continued,  “You’re going to prison. You can’t even look me in the eyes right now, but you can stab my f*cking son in the heart.”
Dr. Stacey Patton <a href="https://drstaceypatton1865.substack.com/p/dear-jeff-metcalf-your-son-is-dead">published an article</a> on Substack on Wednesday titled, “Dear Jeff Metcalf: Your Son Is Dead Because You Failed to Teach Him That Black Boys Have Boundaries.”
Patton responded to the grieving father’s heartbreaking victim’s impact statement by saying it was time to “talk about Jeff Metcalf’s failure as a father.” She said this was appropriate to do because it was the same treatment given to the families of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and Tamir Rice.
“In your own memorial language, you told us about the kind of white boyhood Austin was raised inside. It was a boyhood steeped in conquest language, hunting rituals, warrior fantasies, masculine toughness, and the romance of force,” she wrote. “You told us about a child praised not just for being kind, curious, gentle, or careful, but for becoming a ‘leader’ and a ‘warrior’ in a racist culture where those words too often mean dominance.”
She argued Austin Metcalf “learned early how to hold a weapon, how to aim, how to take down a living thing, how to be proud of the kill, how to have that moment folded into the mythology of father and son,&#8221; and that set him up to be a victim of violence.
“YOU taught Austin what it meant to be a ‘warrior.’ YOU taught him that toughness was honorable. YOU taught him that taking up space was normal. YOU taught him that confrontation was courage. YOU socialized Austin into entitlement long before he ever reached that track meet,” Patton wrote in the lengthy essay.
“YOU failed to teach your boy that black children have boundaries. YOU failed [to] teach humility, restraint, or the sacred fact that another person’s body is not your jurisdiction. YOU failed to teach him that another child’s space is not a challenge to be conquered. … YOU obviously failed to teach your son that touching, confronting, crowding, testing, or policing another person can have consequences. You failed, Jeff,” she added.
The Howard professor ultimately concluded that “black children have good reason to be on guard around white bodies.”
She went on to say she was glad Karmelo Anthony never looked the grieving father in the eye, as he had requested while he read his statement. 
“There was power in him not looking at you,” Patton wrote. “There was refusal in it. There was survival in it. There was an ancient knowing in it. Because black people know what it means when a white man demands eye contact from a black child after already deciding what that child is. We know the old ritual. We know that sometimes ‘look at me’ is not a request for humanity. It is a demand for surrender. And Karmelo did not surrender.”
Professor Patton’s Substack has nearly fifty thousand followers, and her open letter to Jeff Metcalf has received nearly two thousand likes. But not everyone was happy with it. 
“Demonic,” one commenter replied.
“This is pretty disgusting,” another person <a href="https://x.com/AdiMagnolia/status/2065213824828113320">wrote</a>. “They’re asserting a right to murder white people who aren’t docile, deferential, and subordinate. Who don’t ‘know their place.’ Some of them have become the racists they claim to hate.”
“Black boys, and all boys for that matter, should have a boundary if not stabbing someone to death. That’s the boundary,” another <a href="https://x.com/mattvanswol/status/2065263527108006335">wrote</a>. “It’s an extremely easy boundary NOT to cross, billions of people live their whole lives without ever crossing it. If there’s ANY boundary, it’s that.”

ANTHONY TRIAL DAY 7_2026_0609

They Lied About Karmelo Anthony. What Else Have They Lied About?

Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett doubled down on her defense of Karmelo Anthony, claiming his murder conviction for fatally stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf was evidence of a “broken system.” 
Crockett told TMZ on Wednesday that the sentence of 35 years was excessive &#8220;for a kid who had decided to go under a tent that was not his team&#8217;s tent, as it was raining, and simply didn&#8217;t want to be put out in the rain by some random kid that he didn&#8217;t know, who was larger than him.&#8221; 
&#8220;Because if a white boy would have said that they were afraid of a black boy, something tells me that that jury that didn&#8217;t have any black people on it, they would have believed him in his fear,&#8221; she added.
 The failed Senate candidate said her “heart breaks for so many reasons.” Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison after a jury found him guilty of stabbing Metcalf at a track meet in Frisco, Texas, in April 2025. 
“It takes me back to what actually made me decide to get into this legislative work in the first place, because I know that our systems are broken. And what we saw with that verdict is the evidence of a broken system,” Crockett said.

She went on to claim that “a lot of people don&#8217;t know what it is to live as a black person in this country” and that the outcome would have been different had Anthony been white instead of black. 
“Oh my God. I know Collin County. So absolutely,” she said when asked if she thought race was a factor. “And unfortunately, that was not the county for a black boy.”
Crockett continued to downplay the incident, noting that some people referred to the murder weapon “as a tool” and called the knife a “small object.” She also claimed that Anthony should have been given mercy because he only stabbed Metcalf once. 
Those remarks echoed <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jasmine-crockett-downplays-white-teens-murder-after-karmelo-anthony-convicted?author=Leif+Le+Mahieu&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=1&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Crockett+Claims+Karmelo+Anthony%E2%80%99s+Knife+Was+Too+Small+To+Be+Considered+Deadly">previous comments</a> Crockett made that the knife used in the stabbing should not count as a “deadly weapon” because of its size. 
During a Tuesday podcast, Crockett claimed that the Metcalf family, who are white, doesn&#8217;t understand the &#8220;fear and agony&#8221; of black women.  
“Black women, especially black women who have black male children live in fear and agony every single day … fear and agony that I promise you the Metcalfs probably never spent a day living that way and we’re going to have to have just some real conversations about race in this country,” Crockett said.
The case has garnered national headlines as leftist activists claim that the jury was racist, despite testimony from multiple black teen witnesses who reportedly said Anthony was in the wrong.

Jasmine Crockett Explains Why She Thinks Karmelo Anthony Was Justified

Jasmine Crockett

It turns out you can walk up to a group of young men, plant yourself in their tent, taunt them when asked to leave, threaten them while reaching into your bag, and plunge a knife into one of their chests, and still be staunchly defended by radical leftists.
If, and only if, you&#8217;re black. And the victim is white.
Jasmine Crockett, one of the biggest crocks-of-sh*t in Congress, just proved yet again that the Left only sees color, and their warped Manichean worldview will never change.
After a Collin County jury convicted Karmelo Anthony of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf during a Frisco, Texas track meet — deliberating for all of <a href="https://abc7.com/story/karmelo-anthony-trial-update-jury-deliberating-texas-teen-charged-murder-school-track-meet-stabbing/19264598/">three</a> hours before reaching the obvious conclusion — and sentenced him to 35 years, Crockett rushed to the mics. She declared the knife <a href="https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/2064541374750371906/video/1">&#8220;wasn&#8217;t a deadly weapon.&#8221;</a> She implied she&#8217;d have done the <a href="https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/2064535366397313205/video/1">same thing</a>. Then she played the ultimate victim card: <a href="https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/2064549059273146821/video/1">&#8220;Black women live in agony every day that I promise the Metcalfs had never lived through.&#8221;</a>
The knife went two inches into Austin Metcalf&#8217;s chest. It punctured his heart. He died in his twin brother&#8217;s arms. But sure, Jasmine. Tell us more about your agony.
It is 2026. A sitting congresswoman is claiming victimhood by melanin levels, while the family whose son was stabbed to death at a high school track meet (for the crime of asking someone to leave his team&#8217;s tent) is told their grief doesn&#8217;t measure up. The sheer audacity is not just appalling. It&#8217;s a window into everything that is rotting this country from the inside out.
The Democratic Party&#8217;s race-based suicidal empathy, its fanatical prioritization of &#8220;equity&#8221; over equal opportunity, and its color-coded dismissal of crime isn&#8217;t just a policy failure. It&#8217;s a suicide pact for civilization itself. When skin color determines who gets leniency and who gets the book thrown at them, you don&#8217;t get justice. You get dead innocents and a society tearing itself apart.
The Left went soft on crime to make certain statistics look better on paper. Never mind that FBI <a href="https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/topic-pages/tables/table-43">data</a> shows black Americans, who make up 13% of the population, account for over 50% of homicide perpetrators. Never mind that the overwhelming majority of black victims are killed by other black perpetrators; a crisis the Left refuses to address with any of the urgency it reserves for racial theatrics. The problem isn&#8217;t data; the problem is that acknowledging it disrupts the narrative.
Suicidal empathy has consequences. <a href="https://www.wbtv.com/2026/05/15/charlotte-light-rail-stabbing-spurs-push-for-cashless-bail-reporting/">Iryna Zarutska</a> was a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee who fled war and came to America looking for safety. She was stabbed to death on a Charlotte light rail train in August 2025 by Decarlos Brown, Jr. A man who had been arrested 14 times and released under cashless bail on a misdemeanor charge despite a documented history of violence and mental illness. North Carolina Democrats&#8217; soft-on-crime policies put him back on the street. Their indifference put him on that train. North Carolina eventually passed Iryna&#8217;s Law, but Iryna was already dead.
Karmelo Anthony, meanwhile, is publicly defended by a sitting congresswoman who essentially told the world she&#8217;d have done the same thing.
But reverse the races. Imagine a white boy who stabbed a black boy. The Left would be burning cities down quicker than Graham Platner cheating on his new bride.
They don&#8217;t want equal opportunity. They want equal outcomes. And they&#8217;ve been engineering it since the Marxists swapped class warfare for identity warfare. Kamala Harris, Jasmine Crockett, Karl Marx, and Herbert Marcuse all imbibe from the same poisonous well: the world is divided into the oppressors and the oppressed, and the only solution to this is dismantling the oppressors by any means necessary. Marcuse preached that tolerance should be granted to the Left and denied to the Right. Today&#8217;s Democrats live that sentiment daily.
DEI quotas that punish merit, affirmative action that lowers standards, and reparations talk that treats success as theft. The formula is simple: if the right protected class isn&#8217;t &#8220;harmed,&#8221; the hounds stay quiet. But let a white man succeed, or God forbid, defend himself against a protected-class attacker? The mob descends.
This rot has seeped into schools, corporations, and courtrooms for decades. Class struggle became racial struggle, and &#8220;equity&#8221; became the new holy grail. Achieved, naturally, by punishing the productive and excusing the violent.
And how&#8217;s that working out? It&#8217;s killing us.
Iryna Zarutska is dead because Democrats let her killer out of jail on a promise to show up to court. Austin Metcalf is dead because a young man was raised on a toxic diet of victimhood and anti-white grievance that convinced him that being shoved deserved a retaliatory knife in the chest. In New York City, a homeless veteran is dead because soft-on-crime policies sprung a career criminal from jail too early. Seventeen-year-old Tyson <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/tyson-goodsell-murder-charges-north-mankato-minnesota/">Goodsell</a> was shot dead in Minnesota in May 2026 by Somali gangs. 
Across the pond, your crystal ball for America in 20 years, 18-year-old Henry Nowak bled out on a sidewalk after his killer stabbed him with a ceremonial blade, lied to the police, and called Nowak a racist, and watched British officers handcuff the dying boy instead of calling an ambulance. This week, a Sudanese asylum seeker nearly <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DZY0T5WpfN8/">beheaded</a> a man on a Belfast street.
That is what the Left&#8217;s tolerance is doing to us. Blood in the bleachers. Blood on the subway. Blood on the sidewalks. Blood on the streets of Belfast.
And Jasmine Crockett, instead of fighting any of it or addressing why black children are born out of wedlock at nearly <a href="https://ceousa.org/2020/02/26/percentage-of-births-to-unmarried-women/">70</a>% — a rate that study after study links directly to youth violence and crime — instead of cracking down on the criminals devastating her own community, she defends them. Because the theory says to. The theory that law and order are oppression. That family structure is a tool of the patriarchy. That borders are violence. That Western civilization and whites are the villains. That it all needs to be burned down.
The Left is allowing a pervasive and destructive ideology to hollow out this nation. It used to be visible. You could see the consequences of communism and Marxism in famines and gulags. Now it&#8217;s invisible. It lives in lesson plans, corporate training manuals, and the phones in our children&#8217;s hands. It has useful idiots like Jasmine Crockett STILL defending killers by race. STILL dismissing victims by creed. STILL seeing in color only.
It echoes the OJ Simpson verdict, the moment black women <a href="https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/2064498502625849406/video/1">cheered</a> an acquittal not because justice was served, but because it felt good to see “someone who is rich and famous, and black” get away with it. Justice wasn’t the point. Keeping score was.
Enough.
Stop letting people who seek destruction lead our institutions. Be a builder.
Stop being a victim, take what you&#8217;ve been given, and do something worthy with it.
Karmelo Anthony deserved his sentence. Austin Metcalf deserved to live. It didn&#8217;t matter what either of them looked like. The reality is that both of these young men deserved to grow up, live past their teenage years, and build something meaningful in the freest nation on earth. That is no longer possible for either of them.
If we want a society where young men actually make it, we need to raise them differently. In nuclear homes. With faith. With gratitude and decency. With the understanding that the world owes them nothing and that building something requires virtue, not grievance.
Jasmine Crockett, I can&#8217;t wait for you to retire. In your newfound free time, I hope you at least attempt to understand all of this.

Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett claimed that black women suffer more “agony every single day” than the family of murdered high school athlete Austin Metcalf.
Crockett made the remark during an unhinged two-hour <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PrPQgeiMVDs">stream</a> after 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony was sentenced to 35 years in prison for murdering the 17-year-old Metcalf. Anthony fatally stabbed Metcalf during a track meet in April 2025 in Frisco, Texas, and the case quickly garnered national attention. 
Responding to the murder sentence, Crockett turned to race, arguing that the Metcalf family, who are white, don&#8217;t understand the alleged pain of black women.  
“Black women, especially black women who have black male children live in fear and agony every single day &#8230; fear and agony that I promise you the Metcalfs probably never spent a day living that way and we&#8217;re going to have to have just some real conversations about race in this country,” Crockett said during her stream.

<script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Crockett, who will leave Congress at the end of her current term after a failed run for Senate, added during the stream that she didn’t think the knife carried by Anthony at the track meet qualified as a “deadly weapon.” 
“Well, I would have argued the size of it alone, you wouldn&#8217;t even think it&#8217;s a deadly weapon,” she said as the panel she hosted argued that the knife used in the murder was a multi-tool and it only killed Metcalf because of where he was stabbed.

<script async src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
She also claimed the jury should have considered whether it was “one stab versus a gazillion” that led to Metcalf’s death. 
“Because those are the ways that you look at intent, right? Like if you got a machete, bro, it&#8217;s a wrap, right? Like I mean, like the size and even in arguing these are the things that you argue right, like, is like what do you expect will happen if somebody got a machete versus what do you expect will happen if somebody has like a switchblade, like, or a Swiss Army Knife,” Crockett said. 
Crockett added that the jury should have considered the size of Metcalf compared to Anthony. She claimed the size differential could have strengthened Anthony&#8217;s self-defense claims.
&#8220;If a 300 pound man is beating me, like, on top of me and beating me down, I&#8217;m not limited to fist,&#8221; she said. &#8220;You know, I would argue that even, the only time we go into things like people&#8217;s hands being considered deadly weapons, is typically, like, if they&#8217;re a professional boxer, that kind of stuff, but I think by the time you start getting to, like, football player, good argument.

At the end of the stream, Crockett claimed one of her takeaways from the trial was that more black people needed to be on juries. 
“So, black people, stop walking yourself off the juries. First of all, make sure you show up,” she said. “Stop wondering why our kids are not being saved when you literally have people that don&#8217;t even see their humanity nine out of 10 times pulling up to jury duty and you saying you got other things to do and you trying to come up with every excuse for not showing up. You got to pay it forward.”
Contradicting Crockett’s racial narrative, a number of black teen witnesses <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jury-reaches-verdict-in-karmelo-anthony-murder-trial?topStoryPosition=undefined&amp;author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=1&amp;rowHeadline=Top+Stories&amp;rowType=Top+Stories&amp;title=Jury+Reaches+Verdict+In+Karmelo+Anthony+Murder+Trial">testified</a> during the trial that Anthony was in the wrong and praised Metcalf’s character.
The high-profile trial started on June 1 with jury selection and wrapped in a matter of nine days. Video footage and witness testimony — even from defense witnesses — generally indicated that Anthony provoked the situation with Metcalf and deadly force was not needed, contradicting the self-defense argument from Anthony’s team.

Crockett Claims Karmelo Anthony’s Knife Was Too Small To Be Considered Deadly

Karmelo Anthony has been sentenced to 35 years in prison for the murder of high school athlete Austin Metcalf.
The jury rendered the sentencing on Tuesday evening, hours after issuing a guilty verdict on a first-degree murder charge.
Anthony reportedly broke down in tears when the sentencing was announced. The 19-year-old also sobbed and was visibly shaking when the guilty verdict was read hours earlier.
Daily Mail reporter MaryAnn Martinez, who is inside the courtroom, said the prosecution argued before sentencing deliberations that the Metcalf family will suffer far greater than Anthony ever will, no matter the sentence.
&#8220;Nothing you do with your verdict, no matter what it is, nothing you do will take more from Karmelo, Anthony, or his family, than he took from a Austin Metcalf,&#8221; attorney Dewey Mitchell said. &#8220;Karmelo Anthony&#8217;s gonna have the opportunity to continue to be a son, to continue through his life and find out what he&#8217;s interested in, maybe meet the love of his life, have children. Austin Metcalf did not have the opportunity to meet the love of his life. Didn&#8217;t have the opportunity to know what it felt like the hold a plaque of graduation, isn&#8217;t going to know what it&#8217;s like to have children with someone you love. He&#8217;s never gonna have the time with his parents, where he grows up, and he gets out of those teenage years.&#8221;

Anthony, who is black, fatally stabbed Metcalf, who was white, at a track event in April 2025 in Frisco, Texas. The case quickly garnered national attention, both due to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/family-of-karmelo-anthony-hosted-the-most-disgusting-press-conference-ive-ever-seen?author=Matt+Walsh&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Family+Of+Karmelo+Anthony+Hosted+The+Most+Disgusting+Press+Conference+I’ve+Ever+Seen">a narrative peddled by the Anthony family</a> and the glaring lack of coverage from the legacy media, which routinely highlights and escalates white-on-black incidents.
Legal commentators have said throughout the trial that the defense had an incredibly poor showing, and the state&#8217;s case was effectively airtight. Witnesses blew apart any racial narrative peddled by the Anthony family, and video evidence showed that Anthony was not surrounded by a mob of people, but only confronted by Metcalf after he was told to leave the team&#8217;s tent up to 15 times by different people. Also, of note, witnesses say Metcalf explicitly told Anthony he would not fight him.
The trial, from start to finish, lasted only nine days, including jury selection. The jury rendered a guilty verdict mere hours after they were set to deliberate.

Karmelo Anthony Learns His Prison Sentence For The Murder Of Austin Metcalf

Karmelo Anthony Sentenced For Murder Of Austin Metcalf 

Special Reporting

The residents of Belfast, Northern Ireland — and the rest of the Western world — woke up to the following image today:
&nbsp;
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-1112409 size-large" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Belfast-Attack-619x576.jpeg" alt="" width="619" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Belfast-Attack-619x576.jpeg 619w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Belfast-Attack-300x279.jpeg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Belfast-Attack-768x714.jpeg 768w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Belfast-Attack.jpeg 900w" sizes=" (max-width: 619px) 100vw, 619px" /></div>
It shows a Sudanese national <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/migrant-arrested-after-attempted-beheading-caught-on-video">repeatedly stabbing</a> a white man in his 40s in the middle of the road. The African man is squatting over the victim, who&#8217;s flat on the ground, attempting to behead him in front of horrified onlookers. There is a <a href="https://x.com/TPointUK/status/2064116183012429857">video</a> as well, which looks like something you might find out of Iraq on LiveLeak around 20 years ago. But because of the UK&#8217;s immigration policy (which is also our immigration policy), these videos are now being shot here in the West. 
The UK has imported the third world and, as a result — just months after Henry Nowak was slaughtered by a foreigner — we have yet another graphic example of an innocent white man getting executed in the streets. 
Obviously, the British government would have suppressed this footage, if not for social media and X, where it quickly circulated. Instead of denying that the attack occurred, they&#8217;re downplaying it. Here&#8217;s how state TV in Ireland reported on the attack: &#8220;Arrest made after man seriously injured in Belfast stabbing.&#8221; 
&nbsp;
<div class="image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-1112425 size-large" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Headline-Walsh-568x576.jpeg" alt="" width="568" height="576" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Headline-Walsh-568x576.jpeg 568w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Headline-Walsh-296x300.jpeg 296w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2026/06/Headline-Walsh.jpeg 670w" sizes=" (max-width: 568px) 100vw, 568px" /></div>
That&#8217;s the headline they went with. Not &#8220;African tries to behead random white guy.&#8221; They feel compelled to provide as little information as possible, to hide the truth from the public. 
So did the BBC. Here was their reporting: &#8220;A man has been taken to hospital with &#8216;serious injuries&#8217; following a stabbing in north Belfast.&#8221;

Once again, you&#8217;re not told the truth. Meanwhile, this was the response from a member of parliament in Northern Ireland:

Take a step back and realize how truly shocking this is. When one of your native citizens is nearly beheaded on the streets, decent people — particularly people in power — pause and reevaluate everything they&#8217;ve been doing. They immediately begin thinking about how to prevent something like this from ever happening again, no matter what it takes, and no matter what their political beliefs are. But in the UK, the immediate response is to bury the story and to blame people who notice what&#8217;s happening. 
This is not really a political ideology that we&#8217;re up against. This is anti-white, anti-Western depravity. There is nothing that will make these people &#8220;change their minds&#8221; and govern in a way that protects the interests of their indigenous white citizens. They won&#8217;t do it unless they&#8217;re forced to do so.
As we&#8217;ve been covering for several days now, the trial of Karmelo Anthony — who is accused of stabbing white high school student Austin Metcalf — is yet another example of this anti-white depravity that&#8217;s now on full display. 
There is new reporting that, after the defense rested in the Karmelo Anthony murder trial yesterday, Anthony&#8217;s parents were visibly distraught. Anthony’s mother reportedly “had her head down.&#8221; His father was “leaning his head against the wall.” They knew, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that their son&#8217;s lawyers just concluded what has to be the single worst defense ever presented in a murder trial in the history of the United States. 
You have to understand, in this country, the defense doesn&#8217;t have to do anything. The burden is squarely on the prosecution to prove its case. So it&#8217;s pretty hard to mount a legal defense that&#8217;s actively bad when you can just remain silent. But that&#8217;s exactly what Anthony&#8217;s attorneys did. They called several witnesses who actually demolished their own case. One of them actually said, flat-out, that Karmelo Anthony was in the wrong and provoked Austin Metcalf. 
I want to discuss Karmelo Anthony&#8217;s family, and how apparently they&#8217;re now realizing — apparently for the first time — that their son is an alleged murderer. When Karmelo Anthony allegedly stabbed Austin Metcalf to death on April 2nd of last year, he and his family had a choice. They could have appeared in public and admitted that there was no reason whatsoever for Anthony to kill Metcalf. 
They could have immediately offered to take a plea deal — or, if no plea deal was offered, Anthony could have simply pled guilty to the charges — in order to spare the family a lengthy and very difficult trial. And they could have condemned the black activists who sought to use the case to advance the same anti-white propaganda that&#8217;s caused so much death and destruction over the past 60 years.
Instead of going this route, Karmelo Anthony and his family immediately began fundraising. They understood that, if they pretended that Anthony was somehow a victim, they could raise hundreds of thousands of dollars, mostly from unhinged black people. And to that end, Anthony&#8217;s family hired a representative at something called the &#8220;Next Generation Action Network&#8221; to stage a press conference. 
The first agenda item at this press conference was to smear Austin Metcalf. They implied they had some kind of dirt on him, which they wouldn&#8217;t reveal. Imagine being Hunter Metcalf, Austin&#8217;s twin brother, hearing that at a press conference. Just days earlier, you held your dying brother in your arms and said, &#8220;Oh my God. He&#8217;s my best friend. He&#8217;s my brother.” And then shortly afterward, you&#8217;re hearing these barely-literate race hustlers imply that your brother deserved to die.
And then, in one of the most disturbing moments of any press conference I&#8217;ve ever seen, they berated the father of Austin Metcalf for daring to show up to listen to their presentation. That&#8217;s all the father did. He was standing quietly in attendance. And for doing that, Anthony&#8217;s representatives told the police to throw him out of the building. And then they attacked his character.

If Karmelo Anthony&#8217;s family had a shred of decency or self-respect, they would&#8217;ve immediately fired their representative for saying this. They would&#8217;ve taken over the podium, apologized profusely, and begun the lengthy process of reckoning with the fact that they&#8217;re horrible parents who raised a murderer. That course of action would&#8217;ve brought an abrupt halt to all the donations from black supremacists on GiveSendGo. It would&#8217;ve made it more difficult for Anthony&#8217;s family to afford fancy new toys. But it obviously would&#8217;ve been the decent and moral thing to do. 
Watch:

Instead, as you can see, they told the police to escort Austin Metcalf&#8217;s father out of the building. So it&#8217;s not enough for Karmelo Anthony to murder this man&#8217;s child. They also feel the need to treat his grieving father like a criminal. Everyone&#8217;s their oppressor. Everyone&#8217;s doing something wrong, except their son, who just allegedly killed an unarmed teenager for no reason.
What&#8217;s even more perverse is that our legal system is set up to reward this kind of behavior. This is something most people aren&#8217;t talking about, but it&#8217;s true: Even after mocking Austin Metcalf, raising $600,000 from black activists, and presenting a legal defense that&#8217;s frankly insulting, it&#8217;s still possible for Karmelo Anthony to get convicted for murder and walk free in just a few years.
To break this down quickly — First of all, because of a ruling by the Supreme Court, 17-year-olds cannot be sentenced to death or to life imprisonment without parole. And because Karmelo Anthony was 17 years old at the time he allegedly killed Austin Metcalf, he&#8217;s covered by that ruling. Obviously, this is an absurd state of affairs.  Someone who stabs an unarmed teenager to death over a light-to-moderate shove, after instigating the confrontation in the first place, needs to be removed from society forever. 
So right away, at the outset, the maximum sentence Karmelo Anthony can receive in Texas is between 5 years and life in prison, with the possibility of parole after around 30 years. So the judge or jury, if Anthony opts for that route, has wide discretion to let him out of prison in just a few years.
I should also point out that in Texas, it&#8217;s possible for murderers to argue during sentencing that they committed the crime &#8220;in a sudden passion.&#8221; They have to convince the judge that they were put in a position that would &#8220;commonly produce a degree of anger, rage, resentment, or terror in a person of ordinary temper, sufficient to render the mind incapable of cool reflection.” 
The defendant has to demonstrate that he was &#8220;under the immediate influence of sudden passion arising from an adequate cause.&#8221; The classic example is walking in on your spouse cheating on you. Obviously, that wouldn&#8217;t apply to this case. But if the judge somehow buys that argument, then the murder becomes a second-degree felony, and the sentencing range shrinks to between 2 years and 20 years.
Even the possibility that Karmelo Anthony will be a free man at some point in his life is unacceptable. Our legal system is designed to enable violent behavior by young black men, who are the ones committing the vast majority of violent crimes. Someone who kills an unarmed teenager at a track meet over a &#8220;light shove&#8221; should not have the slightest possibility of being a free man in 20 years, much less two years. But that&#8217;s where we are. So if you&#8217;re looking for an explanation for why Karmelo Anthony was spotted smiling and joking with his attorneys the other day, that might be the reason. His parents might be crying because their grift is coming to an end. But Karmelo is probably under the impression — which may turn out to be accurate — that he won&#8217;t spend much time in prison, regardless of the outcome of the case.
But the deception isn&#8217;t just coming from Karmelo Anthony’s family or black activists. Many people who call themselves conservatives and &#8220;truth-tellers&#8221; are claiming that this case had nothing to do with race. And if that message prevails, then no matter how bad Karmelo Anthony&#8217;s defense is, the whole ordeal will be a victory for the Left. It will be a victory for the black activists and militants and thugs — and there are many of them — who will excuse the murder of a white victim for any reason whatsoever. 
No one should forget what this trial has revealed about millions of people we&#8217;re living alongside — people who demand to be treated just like anyone else, even as they celebrate the execution of white children solely because they&#8217;re white. These people desperately don&#8217;t want you to realize that Karmelo Anthony is just one member of a much larger movement, and a much larger demographic — one that would happily use your dead body to raise half a million dollars, even as they taunt your grieving parents and claim to be oppressed. 
They will blow the money on cars and mansions, and in the meantime, they&#8217;ll hire the worst lawyers known to mankind — a strategy that might actually benefit them from a legal perspective. 
Thanks to the Civil Rights Act, schools cannot discipline these people. Neighborhoods can&#8217;t keep them out. All you can do is be ready to defend yourself, because as this trial has revealed, no one else has any interest in doing so.

Anti-White Violence Reaches Disturbing Levels After This Horrific Attack

Belfast

Karmelo Anthony allegedly brought a prohibited knife to a track meet, trespassed into the other team&#8217;s tent, refused to leave, reached into his bag in a threatening manner, challenged people to fight him, brutally stabbed Austin Metcalf, an unarmed 17-year-old, who lightly shoved him in response, then ran away and tried to hide the murder weapon. 
And yet, even with these facts in mind, the trial of Karmelo Anthony has revealed a slew of new details that underscore just how horrific and premeditated this alleged murder was.
 It&#8217;s not an overstatement to say that Anthony&#8217;s defense has imploded far more quickly than anyone anticipated. As bad as you thought this case was, it&#8217;s much worse. The trial has also revealed that everyone in that tent — including witnesses called by the defense — portrayed Karmelo Anthony as the aggressor who refused to leave and provoked the confrontation.
We need to establish at the outset that this trial isn&#8217;t really about Karmelo Anthony, in isolation. This trial is also about the $600,000 that was donated to Anthony&#8217;s defense solely because he murdered a white teenager. This trial is about the hordes of black activists outside the courtroom, cheering for a murderer and endorsing his violent, depraved behavior — again, solely because he murdered a white teenager. It&#8217;s also about our post-1960s legal system, which prohibits schools from punishing dangerous black students like Karmelo Anthony, and which forces white people to live around them. 
We&#8217;re launching <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/real-history-ep-5-civil-rights-pt2?utm_campaign=dwplus&amp;utm_content=20260608_aa_desktop&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=cms">Part Two of our documentary</a> on the Civil Rights Movement on the Daily Wire, called &#8220;The Looting of America,&#8221; which demonstrates — in graphic detail — exactly how we ended up in a country like this. We talk about how many white people came to be terrified in their own neighborhoods — at schools, at track meets, everywhere — because of court-ordered busing, public housing policy, and so-called &#8220;urban renewal efforts.&#8221; We talk about the development of a fundamental, unstated rule of modern society — a rule we&#8217;re all familiar with, and which Austin Metcalf broke — which states that you&#8217;re supposed to tolerate antisocial behavior by black people, no matter how offensive it may be, or else you&#8217;ll end up dead. 
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/the-matt-walsh-show-ep-1792"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-995295 size-full" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/11/Walsh-Banner.avif" alt="" width="1024" height="171" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/11/Walsh-Banner.avif 1024w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/11/Walsh-Banner-300x50.jpg 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/11/Walsh-Banner-768x128.jpg 768w" sizes=" (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></a>
It sounds like an overstatement, but it&#8217;s not: We&#8217;re all expected to go about our lives with the understanding that, if we dare to offend a young black man, we could end up in a body bag. As the writer Patrick Casey <a href="https://x.com/restoreorderusa/status/2062996036634005601?s=51">put it</a>:
<blockquote>&#8220;Austin Metcalf&#8217;s murder is particularly salient because almost everyone, regardless of race, has encountered a black person carrying out an antisocial act – cutting in line, mouthing off, blasting music on the subway, etc. – which is accompanied by the implicit threat of violence. &#8230; Most people don&#8217;t want to share a society with people who routinely violate public norms and are prepared to murder anyone who objects.&#8221;</blockquote>
When you see the vagrant kicking trash cans down the street, you&#8217;re supposed to walk the other way — or else you might end up stabbed to death, like that left-wing activist in Brooklyn a few years ago.

We talked about this story at the time. The white guy made the mistake of getting up off his bench and engaging with the crazy black guy. He shouldn&#8217;t have done that, obviously. He should&#8217;ve done the &#8220;racist&#8221; thing and crossed the street. But he&#8217;d rather risk his life — and die — than violate the sacred rule. 
Along the same lines, when you see some unknown black athlete in your team&#8217;s tent, refusing to leave and acting belligerent, you&#8217;re supposed to look the other way. And if he ends up stealing your property, oh well — at least you&#8217;re alive and not “racist.”
John Derbyshire was <a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/business/national-review-fires-columnist-accused-of-racism-idUSL2E8F8002/">fired</a> from the National Review in 2012 for saying this, but it&#8217;s true: Every white father needs to have a talk with his child about black violence and antisocial behavior. It&#8217;s simply a fact that, on average, black people are far more likely to resort to violence at the slightest provocation. 
This is how &#8220;justice&#8221; works in the hood. If they feel their honor is threatened, or that they&#8217;re being &#8220;disrespected,&#8221; many black people will stab or shoot you, without any hesitation. That doesn&#8217;t mean all black people are violent. But the statistics are indisputable. If you tell a black guy on the subway to turn his music down, you&#8217;re risking your life to a much, much greater degree than if you asked, say, a Chinese woman or a white man.  
We can be fairly confident that Austin Metcalf never received this &#8220;talk,&#8221; based on the public statements of his father in this case (when he told everyone that race had nothing to do with his son&#8217;s death). But it&#8217;s a vital conversation for every child to hear — including black children. Most of the homicides in cities like Chicago or Detroit or Baltimore are related to some impulsive act of violence, committed by a black man who feels he&#8217;s been wronged in some relatively minor way. 
And when these young black men leave their neighborhoods and interact with white people at track meets, or on the side of the road, or on the subway, or anywhere else, their attitude doesn&#8217;t change. Many of them are still willing to kill over any challenge to their &#8220;authority,&#8221; no matter how slight. So everyone needs to be aware of the risk.
It’s also worth pointing out that the type of violence overwhelmingly perpetrated by young black males is almost always cowardly and dishonorable. Very often it’s a group assaulting one person. Often kicking and beating the victim while he’s on the ground. The assault is usually committed suddenly, with no chance for the victim to defend himself. Karmelo Anthony allegedly pulled out the knife and stabbed Austin Metcalf in one fell swoop, then ran away. Metcalf never had a chance. 
I point this out because often the violence is prompted by the assailant’s feeling that he’s been “disrespected” in some way. There was a time in the history of Western civilization when white men would sometimes resort to violence over disrespect. That’s what dueling was all about — a practice that was commonplace in Europe and the United States for centuries. So common that, famously, a sitting vice president shot and killed Alexander Hamilton in a duel. But the whole point of a duel was that both participants knew exactly what was going to happen. They were both armed, they were meeting at a specific time and place to have the duel, and it was a fair fight. 
The idea was that in order to reclaim your honor, you had to fight honorably and honestly. Say what you will about the practice of dueling, but it was at least fair, and it took real physical courage for both parties involved. 
These days, a young black male will feel that his honor has been challenged in some way, and respond with sudden, disproportionate violence against an unarmed, unprepared opponent, and then run away while his victim bleeds to death on the ground. It’s violence done over alleged “disrespect,” but committed in the most craven, disreputable, gutless way.
Is this an exclusively black mentality? No, it&#8217;s not. There are other non-white groups that engage in disproportionate violence in response to criticism. That&#8217;s why Henry Nowak is dead. It&#8217;s also a third-world mentality, more generally. But in this country, by far, the greatest perpetrators of impulsive, inexplicable violence are young black men. 
One wrong word, and you&#8217;re dead. And we don&#8217;t solve the problem by ignoring it, or calling people racist when they voice their concerns about it, or changing their behavior to minimize the risk to their family.  The more we ignore what&#8217;s happening, the more innocent people will die.
Just the other day, a white student at Penn State named Billy Schmidt was slaughtered in the streets of South Philadelphia over a cellphone. And just based on that information alone, you can easily guess what the attackers looked like. We all know it. It wasn&#8217;t a group of white middle-aged men. It wasn’t a roving gang of Koreans. It wasn’t a splinter cell of Japanese females.

It&#8217;s incomprehensible to that woman how anyone could be murdered over a cellphone. She truly can&#8217;t process it. And indeed, it&#8217;s a foreign concept to the overwhelming majority of people. The odds are good that, in your life, you don&#8217;t know anyone who would even dream of stealing someone&#8217;s phone, then shooting them over it. But in the hood, it&#8217;s commonplace. Many young black men, who are often raised without fathers, believe that they&#8217;re entitled to do whatever they want. They don&#8217;t consider the long-term consequences of their actions. They don&#8217;t control their impulses. They see a challenge to their authority, and they respond with lethal force. 
Therefore, if you want to maximize your life expectancy, you have to realize how quickly people in the hood — mainly young black men — will kill you, without a second thought. And you need to act accordingly. In this case, as his father pointed out, Billy Schmidt made the decision to chase after these thugs who had just robbed him, and yelled, &#8220;Give me back my phone!&#8221;
He had every right to do that, of course. In a civilized society, it would be the reasonable thing to do. But South Philadelphia is not a civilized society. Thugs in the hood will shoot you, without hesitation, if you get in their way. There&#8217;s no logic behind any of it. Indeed, just before one of the robbers shot Billy Schmidt, the other thief tossed the stolen phone under a car. So they committed armed robbery and first-degree murder, all for a cellphone that they didn&#8217;t even take. This is depravity that most people can&#8217;t even fathom.
The flip side of the equation — the one every parent needs to drill into the minds of their children — is that Billy Schmidt vastly underestimated the danger he was in. That&#8217;s not to blame Billy Schmidt. He obviously didn&#8217;t deserve to lose his phone, much less his life. But as a factual matter, many, many white people are underestimating the danger that they&#8217;re in — particularly in cities like Philadelphia. They&#8217;ve been indoctrinated with years of BLM propaganda, in all aspects of life, against their will. They&#8217;ve been taught that black people are only incarcerated at higher rates because of racist police. Over time, they internalize that propaganda. They come to believe it&#8217;s true. And now many white people are dying as a result.
As the trial testimony has now demonstrated beyond any doubt, Karmelo Anthony is yet another young black man who allegedly resorted to murder after his antisocial behavior was called out. In particular, the trial has revealed that Anthony is likely guilty of murder for two separate, independent reasons. First, he provoked a violent confrontation, which means he&#8217;s not allowed to claim self-defense under Texas law. Anthony knew he was breaking a well-established social norm, and he was looking for an excuse to kill anyone who challenged him. Secondly, Anthony used lethal force in response to a situation where he clearly wasn&#8217;t in danger of being killed or suffering great bodily harm. And because any claim of self-defense has to be objectively reasonable, his defense falls apart.
So this is not a case about one stabbing at a track meet, as horrific and tragic as that stabbing was. This is also about the legacy of the Civil Rights Movement. It&#8217;s about the urgency of undoing the genocidal and deranged laws (and legal doctrines) that are now getting far too many white people killed. It&#8217;s about ending all of the hand-outs and special treatment that black Americans receive, all in the name of &#8220;racial equity&#8221; — which everyone now understands is code for killing white people with impunity, and taking their stuff. 
This was always the goal of the Civil Rights Movement, from its earlier days. In Part Two of our &#8220;Real History&#8221; documentary on the civil rights era, called &#8220;<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/real-history-ep-5-civil-rights-pt2?utm_campaign=dwplus&amp;utm_content=20260608_aa_desktop&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=cms">The Looting of America</a>,&#8221; we talk about the savagery and the brutality that white people endured if they didn&#8217;t have the resources to flee to the suburbs in the 60s and 70s. The people who were left behind — the ones who couldn&#8217;t engage in so-called &#8220;white flight,&#8221; which is the preferred term of Leftist historians and school textbooks — were sexually assaulted and executed for sport. They watched as their communities became living nightmares. And when they complained, they were met with total indifference from everyone — from black activists, liberal academics, and the United States federal government. They were left behind to suffer and die, as their communities — which had survived for generations — became violent cesspools virtually overnight.
When you watch black activists rally outside that courthouse for Karmelo Anthony, and when you see them donating $600,000 so that Anthony&#8217;s family can buy a new house, the only conclusion you can draw is that not much has changed. Decades of affirmative action and welfare payments and DEI — even the election of a half-black president, two times — have not merely failed to produce racial harmony in this country. Quite the contrary — by design, they&#8217;ve led us directly to this period of open anti-white racial warfare, which has erupted all over the West, from Texas to the UK. What you need to understand is that the government, at every level, is creating the conditions where this kind of violence can occur. They&#8217;re preventing civilized people from enforcing the law, and as a result, every day, children — particularly white children — are getting executed.
Will Karmelo Anthony be found guilty? Most likely, yes, he will — assuming the jury wasn&#8217;t compromised, which is admittedly a big assumption. But the most important takeaway from this trial — and the issue that we address in our documentary — is that white men are not dying in random, one-off incidents like this, any more than white people &#8220;just happen&#8221; to lose out on job opportunities or government contracts or university admissions. White children are dying in the streets of Philadelphia, and at track meets in Texas, for the same reason that defenseless, elderly white women were massacred in their own homes when diversity came to town in the 1960s. These people are dying because of a fiction that has persisted for far too long in this country — which is that racial disparities, always and everywhere, are the result of discrimination. 
This belief has acquired religious significance in most of the country. It&#8217;s both dangerous and completely false. The truth is that, if we had more &#8220;racial disparities,&#8221; and a little more self-awareness, a lot of innocent people would still be alive today. 
As it stands, if we continue on the trajectory that was set in the 1960s, we will continue to see many more &#8220;Karmelo Anthonys.&#8221; That&#8217;s what the corporate press wants, which is why they&#8217;re presenting the murder as a truly unforeseeable, shocking homicide. But it actually wasn&#8217;t unforeseeable at all. We created the circumstances that allowed the murder to happen. We effectively created a new constitution 60 years ago that rewards black grievance and violence. And just as quickly — before the next Austin Metcalf is slaughtered — we must tear up this new constitution and replace it with the one we started with.

Karmelo Anthony’s Defense Is Already Falling Apart

The trial of accused murderer Karmelo Anthony kicked off this week in Collin County, Texas, drawing supporters of the 19-year-old defendant who gathered outside the courthouse and chanted for his &#8220;freedom.&#8221;
Anthony is facing life in prison after allegedly fatally stabbing 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a track event in Frisco, Texas, in April 2025. The case has garnered nationwide attention, including scrutiny of legacy media coverage surrounding the killing, which routinely highlights and escalates white-on-black incidents. In this case, the accused perp, Anthony, is black, and the victim, Metcalf, is white.
&#8220;I declare, I decree, Karmelo Anthony is free,&#8221; was chanted by Anthony supporters who gathered outside the courthouse on Monday, when jury selection started for the trial. About a dozen people in Karmelo Anthony T-shirts participated in the demonstration, according to video footage captured by The Dallas Morning News.

Anthony has also raked in more than $600,000 from an online fundraiser that was started in the wake of the killing. Some people who contributed to the fundraiser added racially-charged comments of support.

I haven’t moved on from the Karmelo Anthony fundraiser. They donated half a million as a reward for killing a white kid. Zero evidence or reason to think it was “self defense,” and they didn’t care. It was a reward for killing a white kid. I’ll never forget it. Neither should you

According to eyewitness accounts, the confrontation began when Metcalf told Anthony to leave his team&#8217;s tented area during the track event. It&#8217;s unclear if Metcalf touched Anthony at all before the stabbing. Witnesses told investigators that Anthony then pulled out a knife, threatened Metcalf, and stabbed him. Metcalf later died in his twin brother&#8217;s arms.
Anthony admitted to police that he stabbed Metcalf, reportedly telling officers, &#8220;I&#8217;m not alleged, I did it.&#8221;
Jeff Metcalf, Austin&#8217;s father, said after Anthony was indicted last year that he&#8217;s confident justice will be served.
“I am pleased that we are moving forward,&#8221; he said in a statement. &#8220;With the first-degree murder indictment, it now goes into the court system. I fully believe that justice will be served for Austin Metcalf. I look forward to the forthcoming trial. But it will never bring my son back.”
Anthony is being tried as an adult and facing a first-degree murder charge. His defense team is expected to claim he acted in self-defense when he stabbed Metcalf.
