I've been taking an incresing notice to this over the past few years. Is this the result of living in a very liberal, anti-white society (I'm referring to the culture in the USA).

With the ever growing statistics of black on white violence, are whites simply just afraid to fight back? Is America going to become the next South Africa? America's white population is currently at 67%.

It seems that vicious black on white violence is constantly being overlooked, and in the rare cases when it is acknowledged, its somehow justified or seen as no big deal. No matter how openly racist or violently hateful they are, there is never any condemnation of their actions. Hollywood, The media and other institutions of the like always portray blacks as either being the victims or glamorized sexual icons or intellectual etc....a huge disparity with the reality of society.

And by the way, I'm not white, but still concerned.

No. Other races are divided too.

Blacks are divided by shades of blackness. Hispanics by countries of origin and degree of whiteness. Asians by countries of origin and how long they've been in America.

All are divided by socio-economic factors: income and education.

While you're not white, you may be whiter than many of us white folks. You're certainly a white apologist, to be sure. Are you an Uncle Tom, a house n-gg-r, a house wetb**k or a house g--k?

I think you're overgeneralizing things. What you see is another stereotype. Whites in general are definitely not afraid to fight back, and the same goes for every race. Individuals might have various reactions depending on the circumstances, but black on white violence are still reported equally and Hollywood doesn't glamorize any particular race. If you think that blacks are often portrayed as victims or intellectuals... you might be overlooking the fact that numerous other Hollywood movies also portray whites as victims or intellectuals. Did you see a black James Bond? I don't think so. In Breach... did you see a black victim? No, right?

As for the white population being 67%, it's understandable because America is a diverse country, made up of a multitude of cultures, religions, and races. It's why America is so strong. Having a bit of everything (and oftentimes the best of everything) makes America unique. If America is Great Britain, where everyone is white, it wouldn't have the same manpower, diverse thoughts, and range of capacity.

As for your concern about anti-white... it could be about anti-neo nazis or anti-kkk. Otherwise, I don't see any hate groups that target white people in general.

the reason you do not have a white Jesse Jackson is because of the fact human beings like Al Sharpton, the real Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan might have him so thoroughly censored which you will no longer even understand he existed. the only racism that I see that's rampant is black against white. that's ok for that form of racism. in certainty, that's just about sanctioned. seem at what share democrats/libs go mutually with those 3 bigots. another element notice, they might desire to initiate invoking hate-crime rates extra on the black on white crimes. the only time I see that's while a white guy hurts a black or Hispanic, or a gay individual.

While I was in the Army, I was deployed to Bosnia with Nato. I noticed that while we were in the chow hall it seemed that the Americans were sitting with small groups or by themselves while other people from other countries where all together in huge groups. In the US I noticed that blacks do have a tendency to group together and seem to project an attitude but where they are by themself, they are actually nice and lose the attitude. Maybe they feel more power in groups and when alone they can actually be who they really are. Sad. Whites seem suspicious of everyone.

Most black violent offenders in US are incarcerated for violence against other black folks. The astronomical murder rate among young black men is attributable to the same ilk.

You do raise a good point, I think white people are trying to hard to please everyone but themselves nowadays, a vast majority obviously have a hang up on past generations discrepancies. While this is positive, the situation you have highlighted is leading to mass popularisation of right wing supporters again. I fear that the right wing will play a prominent role in the world in the not to distant future.

No, no group will stand together unless the see a common enemy. Division is based on the slightest noticible difference, be that difference the shade of your skin, religion or any noticible difference.

Thanks for the insight, may be it is all about buying votes. It sounds like America is out of control in more than enought ways, it is sad.
In Australia the 3/4/ generation Aussie are out case, the new migrants have more right.
I say the world has gone mad, hang in there.
