Topic: Black-on-white violence grows? | |
---|---|
Here is an excerpt from a commentary by American journalist Colin Flaherty.
A black mob in New York beat a young white couple earlier this month. The event was horrific, but not unusual.
Black mob violence is an increasingly common occurrence in many American cities, though you would never know of this trend from mass media. When confronted with astounding levels of such violence, the same reporters who dutifully produce stories about black caucuses, black churches, black colleges, and other race-based institutions suddenly become color-blind. The following incidents all occurred during the last several days — did you read about any of them? – In New Haven, Connecticut, 500 blacks attending a party billed as “An All Black Affair” fought and destroyed property in and around a downtown restaurant. The chaos then spread to two other nearby venues. Shockingly, no one was arrested – New Haven police claimed their resources were tied up with crowd control. – At Virginia State University, 200 black students rampaged through the campus, assaulting people and destroying property. One person was stabbed. Only one was arrested. – A small group of blacks beat and robbed riders on a New Jersey commuter train, sending four people to the hospital. – In racially fueled violence, blacks at the University of Minnesota robbed and assaulted four separate groups of white students over a weekend. Despite the very recent and short time frame, the above list is far from a complete accounting. The New York Daily News did cover the recent beating of a white couple, but dismissed the idea that the attack was race-fueled – despite witnesses reporting the attackers’ spewing racial epithets. The paper chose to quote a witness who described them as “just some teenagers.” He ends his commentary with the following statement: Every single incident of black mob violence does not merit attention from the national media, but together they form a pattern that every reporter in every newsroom in America knows about, yet refuses to discuss. Maybe that is what Eric Holder meant when he said we are a nation of cowards when it comes to race, but I doubt it.
Yep, racism is alive and well in the USA. |

Nice. Reversed discrimination is something that's been around for years, but you're not allowed to mention or discuss it. Well, not if you're white anyway.
Ironically enough this way black ppl will only instigate anti-black people feelings, making things worse for everyone, including black people that aren't like this. So they're ruining their own cause. Kinda stupid. |

I'm sure that if we paid the blacks the reparations that are owed to them, this would end.
Entitlements just aren't enough. |

This is what happens when you give ferals rights. |

This is what happens when you give ferals rights. No. You didn't just say that. A person displaying the Confederate battle flag didn't just call black Americans ferals. I least I hope not. |

Isn't that the response that you wanted to incited from the OP? I did not want anyone to be called "feral". Some people here keep claiming that racism is alive and well in the USA. So, I gave evidence of it. |

No, that is the conclusion people who harbor internal racism jump to. The word feral does not attach itself to any particular race, creed, color, religion, doctrine, gender etc. It is a word that means relating to or resembling a wild beast, this can apply to anyone. |

Treating them the same way you treat someone works for wht they have instead of going out and taking it, people who do not go out and target people for any reason and hurt or kill them. They should be treated like mad dog at the pound, taken out of the population. |

They should be treated like mad dog at the pound, taken out of the population. Now, that is a better way of saying it. The issue is not giving them rights. The issue is letting them keep their rights. You are suggesting that their rights should be taken away from them because they act feral. That is what incarceration would do to them, and I'm all for that. |

Isn't that the response that you wanted to incited from the OP? Why would you think that? Sometimes people just want people to discuss what is actually happening. There is NO reason to assume any degree of racist ideology or racist motivation for a post like this. Edit: by "a post like this" I meant only the OP, and also just the fact that he quoted those excerpts from elsewhere. |

Okay, so this is totally regionalist and wrong of me, but when someone with a confederate flag image says:
"thats what happens when you give [them] rights" ...after an OP specifically addressing violence done by black people I'm inclined to assume that the statement is racially motivated because: (a) there is a strong historical, cultural, media association between that flag and racism against blacks and (b) black people originally had no rights in this country and (from a historical perspective) were only recently ensured such rights and i've heard racists say that *exact* phrase in several different forums (without the word feral). My apologies for making that assumption, and for maybe disrespecting people from the south for doing so. |

OP: Question is, why is there an increasingly common occurrence of Black mob violence on whites in many American cities |

OP: Question is, why is there an increasingly common occurrence of Black mob violence on whites in many American cities Maybe Charlie Manson's "Helter Skelter" race war was just late getting started?...I'm pretty sure the whole thing is just a CIA-engineered plot to keep the races fighting against one another instead of teaming up on the real enemy. "Divide and conquer" is as old as the hills. It amazes me that you stupid humans never caught on. |
