If whites had poverty rates as high as blacks, and were as politically disinfranchised as blacks, and were intentionally given poor police response time like blacks then whites would be in a situation where crime would have a greater opportunity to flourish. And don't forget that the law does little or nothing to protect people who testify, which makes people more likely to fall into that don't "snitch" crap that just helps create a garden for crime.
Poverty rates: there are more whites living below the poverty line in America than there are poor blacks. Then there's the fact that no one in America is starving. We have a fairly generous welfare state, so there's no excuse to going around shooting one another. Heck, if poverty rates were really to blame, then why is it a small minority of blacks (young, urban, male) doing the overwhelming majority of the killing? There are lots of poor black young women, middle aged men and women, and elderly, but you don't see them dropping bodies in the streets because poverty. Murder may cluster among poorer populations, but it also crosses socioeconomic lines.
Disenfranchised: I don't know what that means. Blacks vote at higher rates than most populations, last time I checked. Their grievances sure as hell get more air time than any other population group. Try to air a white grievance some time, then you'll see disenfranchised.
Poor police response time: well, taxes matter. Whites are taxed to pay for police for blacks and whites. You get what you pay for. Then there's the fact that black culture is currently quite hostile to police. You try solving crimes in an area where "no snitchin" reigns supreme, some time. The "law" can't protect witnesses, money can. Governments simply don't have the funds to pay to protect witnesses, especially given the fact that the areas that produce most of the problem produce the least tax revenue. The idea that witnesses aren't protected is what's really driving the "snitches get ditches" culture is laughable.
Yeah, occupy everything didn't ever happen.
This. It's long been a tactic of the left in general to occupy public spaces.
I recall Occupy having fewer armed people willing to level weapons at federal agents
Leftists have different politics. They don't care about the 2nd Amendment. Obviously these folks do. That said, no, I don't think they should be leveling guns at federal agents. For that matter, I don't know anything much about them, and my point here is not to defend them, but to answer the OP's points about wider society's response.
No, brosef. These guys are White. They could shoot up the cops and kill half the police force in that town, and they'd still be "protesters" and "activists."
The only way the word "terrorist" would be used is if some non-white guy walks by, and he just happens to be carrying something that could be construed as a weapon. Then the headline would read "Armed protesters defend themselves from Islamic terrorist."
Interesting point of view. Complete nonsense, but, interesting.
