The division between blacks and whites
1 2018-05-18 by setadoon177
I have never seen more people paying attention to the race of a shooter more then with this recent shooting. On the YouTube videos revealing his identity, all the most liked comments are people pointing out "of course he's white" and "sounds about white". The race of this shooter or any shooter does not matter. It's the fact that lives are lost, and we are beginning to forget this as a society. Whoever wants to see this country divided is laughing to themselves right now. "black vs white, left vs right, are the made up fights for those who'd prefer to stay out of sight"

You obviously don't pay attention often. Literally every time a shooting happens the race is highly focused especially on social media
1 setadoon177 2018-05-18
Yes I'd say that but it would be the media that was pushing it. Now it's the subjects of that media who are beginning to internalize "race-first" and regurgitate to still more people.

Ss: basically there is a benefit to keeping a society stagnant at % 49vs49% while the other 2% scramble to try and show the others what's going on.

I think you mean while 1% carries on running the show;
a pitiful 1% runs around sounding alarms and is called, chicken little for their efforts.
squawk, cheep cackle and cluck.

He said 2% because that's the current Jewish population. And Jews run America.

Aw 2 downvotes by right wing nutcases. I have guns. Getting stricter gun laws doesn't mean they're going to cone out and take your guns

It seems like a hard sell. People that have guns tend to really like having them (for various reasons), and even getting to Australia's level of gun control is going to be like pulling teeth.
It would be nice if the government made some moves on mental health care though. If the problem is a troubled young man with a gun, and we can't or won't do anything about the gun, then we should at least try to do something about the troubled young man.
Beats the hell out of continuing to do nothing.

I have bipolar and have never thought of shooting up a school. You have to be really fucked in the head to wanna do that

Exactly. If there's a way to talk them down, to help them cope with whatever it is they're going through before it reaches that point, then it needs to be explored.

A lot of people trip over themselves to broadcast whites behaving badly as far and wide as possible, possibly to distract everyone from the greater epidemic.

If the shooter is white, we get to make jokes. If they're black, we can't say anything.

Greeks are white.

For starters: “white” is a very broad term and classification into white or non white is a very american practice. What's considered white today by modern standards is blond hair, blue eyes, paler skin, anglo saxon, and decent from ireland, scotland, germany, england, all the nordic countries, basically, all of north and central europe. Far south east europe, is were things get…messy.
Yes and no. Greeks are a simply mixed people, with original decendants from the middle east and central Europe, Overtime, due to the waring history of Greece and the mixing with friend and foe countries, greece became very diverse in terms of colour. Because of this, some greeks are pale skinned, and some are very dark (ex. Like those from islands like crete, who didnt get much exposure from europe, but more from the middle east, and a small bit from north africa). However, many greeks like to consider themselves white, because they are fascinated with the idea of becoming modernly westernized. This is truly a shame, because in being “wanna-be" whites, they have lost there cultural identity, their religon(EASTERN orthodox church), and their money. I would say greeeks are of theeeee euro-mediteranian middle/near east background, and fall into the category of Lebanese, Syrians, etc.
(If we are talking regions, I would say some sicilians of Italy also fall into this category.)
Whether you want to consider this “white” is up to you, as it seems that the title “white” is more of a social and visual appearance title, not a genetic one.

One thing is for sure; there's no grey area.

Absolutely 100% correct.

For those who want to know who's behind it.

Have any of the perpetrators in mass shootings at schools been black? As best as I can remember none of them have...
Haven't all of the school shooters been on some form of antidepressant? As best as I can remember all of them have.
Of course in the MSM this potential relationship is never discussed or explored with any depth or analysis. At most it gets mentioned in passing. Why aren't there any black shooters if they are as violent as they are continually portrayed? Why are all of the shooters white?

I think it's because on th whole there are more white students in school in the first place, they have less of a dropout rate. Also these people were all bullied or disenfranchised in some way; I think blacks are bullied way less often then white kids. Also guns; the white kids are more likely to have parents in their home/life and those parents are more likely to have firearms.

Inner city schools are more likely to have been affected by gun violence and realize the impact.
