Right and Im sure even those gangs also are killing 'their own' racially speaking. So if we define ethnic cleansing as exclusive targeting of a race,, such as what Hitler did to jews,,it wouldnt be quite the same thing,,although I understand for the purpose of this article the writer is mainly concerned with the 'black' victims.


is it not possible that these gangs are killing one race because of racism or to take over the area and maybe those are the 2 rival races in that area??? that is my point. the article is NOT talking about other states or even the entire state of CA. it is talking about an area

It was made to dismiss one particular poster, about something she wasn't even suggesting.

You knew who it was meant for, lets not play dumb..
And she has never suggested that only whites are capable of racism. Willing put ethnic cleansing into the title of this thread, it wasn't in the article.

excuse me???? did I deny not knowing????? NO if FACT I stated the reason wasn't that he was serious. there was actually the last bit of the post left off that I think made it VERY clear what was meant

AND I already explained the title...which I will not do again. I think I pointed it out VERY clearly.

Okay. I found that post. She was telling me something but she wasn't telling me what somebody else was thinking.

no...she was telling you why he did it as reading his mind. I was the one that said "I think"

yeah but no sooner did I make that suggestion than she came in and posted to the exact effect that not only did I know she would but predicted.. it's almost a parody.. it would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.

funny how everyone knew exactly who I was talking about though... sees racism in everything except that which really is racism.. how ironic..


and to rose: flowers

The article says, "Federal authorities said they would announce today a huge sweep of Latino gang members allegedly responsible for violence against law enforcement and racially motivated attacks against blacks."

I wish that it was possible to get rid of all gangs.

My father was in LA when the Rodney King riots happened. He didn't come out of the hotel for a couple of days. LA can get scary sometimes.

LOL you are really cracking me up now, Rose.

''I know who did and I know why it was made''

No biggie, I just don't like seeing some get piled on for something she never said or suggested.
