"White on black" isn't an intraracial crime. It's interracial. Read DrPhil's post again - you missed the point.

I corrected your implication that it is just "a Black thing".

I assume you mean "interracial" and that is untrue.

1. The issue in this case is the police killing of an unarmed 18 year old. It's not about "intraracial crimes." It's different when there is police power involved. There haven't been riots for white on black crime, either. This mess is directed towards abuse of police power. First by shooting Michael Brown. Secondly by turning dogs on peaceful protestors on the very first day. Even if you believe that Michael Brown had it coming, do you really advocate the use of dogs on protestors?

2. The black community does not ignore black on black crime, not even close. TNC explains it better than I can. http://www.theatlantic.com/national/...-crime/378629/

By trying to change the topic to black-on-black crime, you are avoiding the issue of police abusing their power and the disproportional way that effects blacks in the US.

For the record, there have been protests and riots about non-police white-on-Black crime. Those aren't the only interracial violence protests.

Communities speaking out against Black-on-Black violence are typically doing so in response to high incidents and rates. They tend not to be pretending to eradicate crime and violence. They know violence and crime exist and are typically carried out intraracially.

I would teach you about the protests conducted by every racial and ethnic group that comprises more than 2% of the total USA population. I would teach you about offender-victim racial composition. But you are only here to troll. I won't waste my time but I do recommend you read the FBI's UCR victim-offender race-sex data.

At the WTO summits. After football games. After hockey games. Black Friday.

White riots:

The New York city draft riots, the Red Summer, Detroit race riot, Zoot Suit riots

In St. Louis, white adults threw glass bottles at black students and their buses when desegration happened in late 70s/early 80s.

Whites in Granite City, Illinois (historically a sundown town) burned down a school building (in their neighborhood) when a black business owner bought it for his offices.

Whites in East St. Louis frequently burned down their houses, rather than sell them when desegration happened.

It is always good to see people making lemonade out of lemons with voter registration.

I was annoyed when the on-site news correspondent said some of the unruly/antsy people were complaining that the community leaders and religious leaders were having meetings and silent protests while there were unruly people in need of guidance and direction. "Tell us what we can do...we need guidance." There goes the victim mentality again. Unsupervised teens need to have their butts at home after the peaceful protests have ended. Legal adults need to get their head out of their asses and stop NEEDING someone to tell them to stop looting and crowding streets and corners at night. Stop NEEDING someone to tell you to find something productive to do with your anger. Even with chronic unemployment and underemployment, a moment of regretful stupidity, okay. Ongoing stupidity, give me a break.

"Murdering Multiculturalism is by far the best and most eloquently written book explaining the true reason for to the decline of western civilization, particularity in America. Although this book is primarily a wake-up call for the oppressed European-American white majority, the author, Joe Adams, expresses his irrefutable viewpoints in such a way that it could be understood and appreciated by a reader of any race who has the ability to set aside their emotional reactions to Marxist Pavlovian trigger words/labels and uses their logic to realize his clear message: Multiculturalism is death sentence to ANY society, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, and politics; it simply does not work, it has never worked, and it will never work. Adams delivers his message in only 130 pages; it is a short and easy read with an irrefutable powerful message that anyone can digest. It is a must read for everyone interested in politics!!!"

LOL. What?! I.. just.. can't…
