I hate white people.
It had to be a an american. Two bombs and only 3 people died? Those streets were packed. Some intelligence went into this, but not of a true terrorists caliber. If it was pakistan based terrorism all 100 that got injured would have been dead. Someone wanted to harm multiple nationalities, but not kill.
this attack will end up being home made watch.

I thought the same when they said one of the bombs was made from a pressure cooker. The only thing making me question that this attack could be an american is that the media is conditioning me to believe that anytime an american criminal wants to do something, he reaches for an AR15.
Hispanic man shoots a black man and the media responds, "what if trayvon was white".... just more examples of racism towards white people.
I agree that the article has an outrageous title but he actually makes a legitimate point. Think about how many of the domestic mass shootings over the last few years have been perpetrated by white guys. We rightly don't then label the entire of group of white guys something to be concerned about. However when a small number of Islamic militants perpetrate killings, we see lots of people claiming we should be suspicious of all muslims. We should not be judging any large group by the actions of a small sliver of their worst members.
Questioning the racial motivations of a shooter is not racism. It doesn't imply that blacks or whites are any better or worse people than the other.
Facepalm this whole thread.
I've said this before..... many times...........................
the first people to come to the aid of victims or to seek justice when a white person commits a crime................................ is other white people. Collectively, the white community shuns it's "bad apples". Other racial groups are not as likely to adopt the same stance. My best explanation for it would be because they are smaller in numbers. the need to grow out weighs the need to get rid of bad apples.
I don't agree with that but hopefully we can both agree that nothing you have written in this thread is "racism". You are usually very sensitive to the word "racism" being misused but you are misusing in this thread. I just wanted to give you a friendly check so you won't be seen as hypocritical.
Despite the official sounding title of the blog, he is just giving his opinion and doesn't provide any evidence that racism against whites is overlooked any more than other race. The closest he gets is by providing evidence that many white people are afraid of looking racist. That's about it.
Here are some more shocking statistics: More than 1,600 Whites are murdered by Blacks each year. Blacks murder Whites at 18 times the rate Whites murder Blacks.
About 1 million Whites were murdered, robbed, assaulted, or raped by Blacks in 1992. In the last 30 years, 170 million violent and nonviolent crimes were committed by Blacks against Whites in the U.S. Blacks under 18 are more than 12 times more likely to be arrested for murder than Whites the same age.
Some 90% of the victims of race crimes are Whites. Blacks commit 7.5 times more violent interracial crimes than Whites, although they comprise only one-seventh of the White population.
On a per-capita basis, blacks commit 50 times more violent crimes than Whites. Some 27 million nonviolent crimes were committed in the U.S. in 1992 alone. 31% of the robberies involved Black offenders and White victims; only 2% involved White offenders and Black victims.
1.3 million of the 6.6 million violent crimes committed in the U.S. each year are interracial. Between 1964 and 1994, more than 45,000 people were killed in interracial murders in the U.S., compared to 58,000 Americans killed in Vietnam and 38,000 killed in Korea.
The above stats were collected by an Australian reporter, Neil Sheehan, who dug out half-concealed U.S. crime figures for an article in the Sydney Morning Herald (May 2, 1995). The contents of his article, he commented, could not possibly be published or discussed in the U.S. mainstream media.
One wonders how many Whites have to be killed by Blacks before the N.Y. Times and Dan Rather break the conspiratorial silence about the number of White casualties in the guerrilla war being waged against them by Blacks. Paved With Good Intentions, a book by Jared Taylor, also studies crime statistics by race. It must be stressed that Blacks make up only 12% of the population according to the 1990 U.S. census (and Black males about 6%), but they commit a vastly disproportionate number of violent crime.
Mr. Taylor reveals: 1) 58% of all arrests for weapons violations are Blacks. 2) 46% of all arrests for violent crimes are Blacks. 3) 73% of all "justified self-defense" killings are committed by Blacks. 4) 60.5% of all Blacks are armed with some type of weapon at all times. 5) 98% of all youths arrested for gun fights in Atlanta are Blacks.
In 1989, the FBI reported the following:
A) Blacks commit 8 times more assaults than Whites. B) Blacks commit 9 times more rapes than Whites. C) Blacks commit 14 times more murders than Whites. D) Blacks commit 19 times more armed robberies. E) Black neighborhoods are 35 times more violent than White neighborhoods. F) There were 629,000 interracial attacks committed in 1985 (the last year the FBI "chose" to report this information). Some nine out of every ten were committed by Blacks against Whites. G. Black males (6% of the population) make up 46% of the nation's prison population.

Racism is a belief that one race is inferior to another. Committing a crime against a white person does not mean you think they are inferior or that the motivation for the crime was race. So, some examples of evidence of racism would include things like a crime committed against someone where their motive was clearly race and not financial gain or some other standard motive, discriminatory treatment for a non-white candidate when all other meaningful qualities are equal (caveat: sometimes discrimination based solely on race is appropriate).
These statistics do not show motivation. Blacks could murder Whites at 1000 times the rate Whites murder Blacks, but that doesn't prove racism. Crime is just one location racism could manifest itself but motivation is often hard to determine so you may have better luck providing evidence from other categories of life.
Most of my opinions are formed from personal experience, while i recognize that my life is a small sample of humanity as a whole..... i tend to be more susceptible to media when i see the same thing happening around me.
I'm gonna have to put a hidden camera on one day and just wonder around columbus capturing interracial interactions. Just yesterday i'm sitting in mcdonalds eating lunch. It's pretty crowded, probably 10-12 people in line.... a black guy in the line asks someone else to pay for his meal and hands them money, he then says out loud and easily heard, "i cant put money in white folk's hands"..... so then a few minutes later, two girls pull up in a suv that has an obama sticker on it, one white one black. The same black guy says to the white girl, "i see you got that obama sticker, so you about them people?" whatever that is suppose to mean. Then he says "you need to let me get your number so you can prove to me you're about them people" Few minutes later, guy sees my helmet sitting on the table, asks me what kind of bike i ride, i respond "CBR" he then looks at my helmet and says what does that mean? I respond "that i carry a gun" he replies "ok" and walks out the door.
I understand and you may be correct for your limited area of experience but that approach does not always lead to truth in the greater world. I am not claiming that no one is racist against whites. Clearly there is plenty of racism in the world. I just question whether whites receive more of it than any other group. Also the effects of that racism is important too. One dude in a McDonalds saying he doesn't want to put money in white people's hands is a much less worrisome condition than someone in a position of power exhibiting the same kind of racism.
This was just an anecdote that has nothing to do with racism right? Or did I just miss it?
This is a normal every day thing for me. Almost any time i put myself in the public, i witness racism from black people. But then when i turn on the TV, all i hear is that racism is a white thing....
Yeah, that was not part of my point.
I almost never hear racism from black people in my personal life so that probably biases me in the opposite way your life experiences bias you. Also, no matter where you get your news from, it does not represent the normal or average. It usually portrays the most extreme, distasteful, and shocking events in our society because that is what is considered newsworthy. A headline like "most black people respectful and humble" is not exactly "newsworthy" even if it is true.
I think there is a problem with the perception of what is and what isn't racism.
You dont know what its like to be a white man in today's society that demonizes the white man. I am the villain. The fact that you are accepted by the black community bares no significance to how white people are treated. You havnt lived the "white experience".
Note: exaggerated sarcasm.
Latinos have it a lot worse than white people, anybody who says otherwise is wrong.

I know this is from the news outlets which is about as worthless as on a bull.
But c'mon man.
Pretty sure it ended up being a white American.
I say we ban white people.
This is exactly what I was trying to explain to Sinflix earlier. He gets upset when black people separate themselves based on their race but then makes the same distinctions when talking about crime, welfare, etc. It's like it's okay to denigrate people based on race but not to think they have been made victims because of their race.
Sinfix is unclear on what racism actually means. He mentioned to me earlier to spare him the textbook definition of racism. Which means textbook racism doesn't mean what he wants it to mean. Lol.
