Topic: interracial crime in the usa, putting charleston in context - page 2. (Read 1299 times)

Anyone see that video of the friends of the shooter? One of them was black and said he'd never heard him say anything racist before or acted in any way suspect. Thought that was weird.


The crime rates are linked to poverty and there's a larger percentage of African Americans living in poverty so that's why the figures are higher.

How can you say that the US government is white, when the president himself is Black? Most of the people in the important governmental positions are Jewish (and therefore not white per se). And less than one-third of the American whites voted for the current American president, whose policies has been regarded as anti-white by some.

I lived a short time in America and saw things that are unthinkable in Europe.
Whites lives mainly in the rich suburbs of cities, black people in poor houses or buildings in the center, white people generally drive in the cars, black people in public transport etc.
The difference in living standards between blacks and whites is huge and it just creates resentment and anger among blacks.
Related to that, white people get better paid jobs, they go to better schools etc.
These are great and the structural problems of American society that can not be easily or quickly resolved.
The recent massacres are unfortunately only one of the consequences of these accumulated tensions in American society.
I'm not optimistic that this problem, which has not been solved in the past 200 years, would soon be resolved and that blacks and whites will be completely equal in American society.

Actually Black folks have a looooooong way to go to catch up with the violence perpetuated by the vastly White US government. How many millions of people has the US killed under the guise of "protecting our country?" Let's be real...we have not had a war that was about protecting our country in ages. Most war is about political interest or stealing natural resources.

So yeah, you can say what you like about Black on White crime, White on Black crime, Black on Black crime or White on White crime, but no crime compares to the crimes committed against other countries by the US. And if we want to get really specific here, the US has been run by White men since it's inception.

Body count: ~30 million.

Now tell me who is more violent.

Imagine the reaction, if some white individual had called for a race war, during the funeral of some white person who was killed during a black-on-white crime. Regardless of race, lunatics such as this one should be immediately incarcerated. No one should be allowed to take advantage of the shootings and use it for their own selfish needs.

Woman Calls For Race War At Scene Of Charleston Church Shooting

The conversation is a snapshot of race relations in the Obama era, which has seen racial tension reach a boiling point unseen in America for decades.

Breitbart Texas editor Brandon Darby drew a heated reaction by asking, “What do you think the chances are that the guy who did this horrible thing was mentally ill?”

Sista Solove, offscreen, immediately responds, “Hell, no… Are all crackers mentally ill?”

Darby responds “What are you saying, ‘crackers?'”

As the man with the sign attempts to answer Darby’s question, Sista Solove again jumps in and tells Darby, “Cracka. You’re a cracka. Crackas. We niggas, y’all crackas, it’s what it is.”

The conversation took place five feet from what President Obama called “sacred space” in a speech on Wednedsay.

A few seconds later, after the man with the sign says he did not believe Charleston suspect Dylann Roof was mentally ill, Sista Solove expresses a theory that several African Americans in Charleston told us: that Roof “was sent” by white supremacists to do the shooting and to push black people out of town.

“He (alleged killer Roof) was sent. He was sent. The KKK ain’t nothing but the police with badges now. That’s all they are. They took their hoods off and they’re police. It was an inside job.”

The man with sign agrees, saying, “C’mon, man, he was sane. He knew what he was doing. He tried to free home.”

We talk about changing views about blacks. But if the stats are right then how can one?
I know every person is different, but the fear that is instilled in people 's mind blocks the change of views.

Many people say that the prison system in the United States is discriminatory. They say that, because the Blacks, who compose 13% of the general population, constitute almost 40% of the prison population. On the other hand, the non-Hispanic whites, who are 60% of the general population, comprise only 39% of the prison population.

But they overlook the fact that Black are several times likely to commit violent crimes, when compared to the Whites.
