Yeah I hear you, but where I differ is in that there can continue to be injustice that systematic because the law is not only crafted but applied in a way that targets people. Part of the problem with Crime statistics is that in many areas Police do not target certain populations (read= more affluent) and as a result the system impact those targeted populations more harshly. I believe the issues are still systematic because the system lacks the mechanism to prevent specific people from being targeted. I do not believe all issues are systematic issues, I still think the root is sin but I do think that in America because the issue of racism has never been resolved, and the people who have historically suffered from systematic racism that was common in the US the residue of injustice creeps into the application of our laws today. Which is why Tamir Rice and John Crawford can be shot on sight in a state that is open carry, meanwhile armed militias are allowed to walk through the streets within intent to intimidate and promote hate speech.
Too many if's in the reasoning. Too much potential for leaping to conclusions. But I am with you in that I think it was more organic then engineered. I am still trying to wrap my head around the antifa thing... needless to say WS is many decades ahead of them in terms of practice.
Lastly, I cannot say things have gotten better. I think dormant sins were awakened when a black man became president. It did not help that he was left leaning in his policies. Remember the saying "The Silent majority stand with Trump" The same silent majority was silent during the civil rights movement. Now, they many are emboldened but a guy who took advantage of them so that he could win.
OK, I'll have to think about it.
I think there is a difference to consider. Police will react differently to a single armed individual as opposed to a group. If one of those nazi types were walking alone with a rifle, i think the police would be on him.Originally Posted by loercase
I think both of those cases you mentioned were injustices. I'm surprised to see John Crawford mentioned. No-one ever talks about him and I think that's one of the clearest cases of injustice with a racial element. That guy who called 911 ought to be in prison and those officers should be police if not in jail too.

As far as I can tell, ANFITA is antifascists who are comprised of what some might call the alt-Left. Some are anarchists and are being blamed for violence. They are identified by the people where black masks instigating and attacking the WS during counter protests. But others on the board will have a better description.

Good question. Answer that and you may begin to understand some of the bigger picture.
Antifa is the street muscle of the communists. Historically they are a communist group that clashed with the Nazis in Germany in the 1930s. Their name is short for anti-fascist. The fascist were the italian leader of the time Mussolini's socialist party and as you may know Italy was an ally to Germany. In the 30's there were battles for power between the Marxist communists and the national socialists. The national socialists won control of Germany and Italy. The communists of Germany and Italy fled to the US and set up shop here.
Today Antifa is an insurgent group bent on destroying western civilization with the goal of bringing about global communism.
BTW, The word "Nazi" is actually an abbreviation for Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, which refers to the National Socialist German Workers Party.
Socialism has it's root in Marxism. So both communist and national socialist are like bastard half siblings. If you listen closely to what the guys who marched in Charlottesville have to say, you'll find that they for identity politics and socialism not too unlike what typical lefts preach except they add an ethno-racist stipulation.

Rather than seeing these events as something new or as offshoots of groups that existed in the past, it's imperative to recognize that these flare-ups are coming from groups that continuously exist.

LOL.
Just note that those white supremacists in Charlottesville are really the left's bastard half-brothers. They are truly left although they call themselves 'right'. Also neither of them are fighting for you. Lord help you, help us, if either ever get into power. Pick your poison.
Can't stand stupidity.
