    Alexsander is right, and NightOwl is following the Trump playbook.

    All you need to know about the "bigger picture", kids being raised in a single parent home. Fix this and you will fix most of the problems in the Black community.

    Not at all. The Left in this country has often had its terrorist contingent. Back in the '60's it was the Weathermen.

    Youre right. The Trump playbook includes laughing at liberal nonsense and making fun of ridiculous assertions. Calling the left wing looks out on their BS is what got him elected the first time.

    And the Right's violence actors were the KKK and the white citizens councils.

    No, it is far more than that. It begins with lying and then upping the score. :)

    I think saying antifa dorks are paid white supremacists might be just as funny as the Russia hoax. Just when I think the left couldn't get any more ridiculous and disingenuous they never let me down.

    The Weathermen haven't been around for some decades, and they were mainly a reaction against Daly's use of police brutality against peaceful protestors at the 1968 convention.

    Load of crap in what respect? You accuse, but you don't counter with anything like intelligence.

    The Weathermen are just an example of the Left's tendency to use violence and terrorism to advance their goals. They were responsible for several bombings in the US.

    Antifa is just a more recent incarnation of this tendency.

    Antifa is a more recent reaction to the right's tendency to want to use violence.

    The California cop-ambusher was one of Trump's base, a boogaloo boy who was out to start a race war.

    Needless to say, Lil Mike here will keep running cover for such Trump cult violence, by declaring that only crazy people state the obvious truth. The violence is coming from the right, not "antifa". But hey, that's just what the FBI says. You should ignore them and listen to internet cranks and right wing conspiracy blogs instead.

    There is an entire thread here of posts on left wing violence. I'm not providing "cover" for anyone, just waiting for someone to provide actual evidence of the thread topic, which you finally did, 18 days after the thread started!

    So congratulations?

    When was the last time the “weathermen” were active? 50-60 years ago? What - you think they are going to try a mass escape from their nursing homes to run amok on their walking frames?

    I majored in sociology in college with a minor in anthropology for three years before I changed to accounting so I could earn a living with a bachelor's degree.

    Never did any of my sociology professors or the books teach cops would be criminals if not cops.

    You must have had far left loons teaching you BS.

    And you want to believe the BS.

    Seeing a peer reviewed study to back up your belief might change my mind if done prior to academia going full out post modern leftist.

    I'd be happy for that to be true, but it isn't. Black clad anarchists/communists are playing their own game and have been for decades. They try to hijack otherwise peaceful protests for publicity. They try to provoke violent responses from police to show the 'violence inherent in the system' (and yes, Monty Python did skewer these attitudes 50 years ago). That particular strategy dates back to 60s protest groups. I don't doubt that st least some of those black-clad white males who turned up at BLM protests breaking stuff were either aligned with these groups or inspired by them (I also don't doubt some of them were right wingers trying to provoke chaos).

    As someone on the left who partly stopped attending demonstrations because these *holes kept hijacking them I can assure you that they are not new and they are not just a reaction to the right. They are small in numbers & not especially well co-ordinated, however.

    I would agree that 'ANTIFA hysteria' is a very new phenomenon driven by right wing politicians & media who want to make the left look much more dangerous than it is while simultaneously ignoring just how dangerous right wing groups are. They have vastly inflated the size & importance of these 'black bloc' groups, who are perfectly happy with such exaggerations - an example of how the same untruths can sometimes suit people across the political spectrum.

    There are more poor whites than poor blacks.

    It is against federal law to discriminate.

    I know many middle class educated blacks. Why are they not poor given they live in the same America.

    Because they live in america and not in a past America. Where white supremacy was huge unlike today.

    Black Nigerians thrive in america. And they are black too.

    The middle class blacks don't dwell on being victims. They got an education and kept out of jail and have two parent house holds and their kids will be successful.

    It may be harder for blacks. But that makes the smart ones work harder .

    There are c.48 million blacks cf c. 280 million other races.

    It's the higher proportion of blacks living in poverty - and higher rates of confrontation with police that is fueling the present protests.

    But not against federal law to tolerate double unemployment rates among blacks.

    Because they can compete in the competitive job market, Poor whites and poor blacks cannot all compete in this market in which a certain level of unemployment is mandated in a neoliberal system (see the NAIRU)

    The problem today IS the neolibeal system which denies above poverty employment for all, determined/depending on ability to compete.

    Addressed above.

    And those born into generation unemployment and poverty don't necessarily have the same capacity to overcome the disadvantages of the ghettos. .

    And the "less smart" ones?

    Agree with the devastation of neoliberalism.

    The less smart ones don't get out of the ghettos IMO.

    BTW the middle class blacks used upward mobility and refused victim hood. Most came from poverty. At least the older ones.

    I watched the black folks rise from poverty once they were hired by local factories post civil rights act. They took advantage of opportunity .

    Their grandchildren are rioting in the streets now.

    The Left is revolutionary. They are looting and burning and tearing down historical statues.

    It is really silly for you to deny the historical and current revolutionary violence of the Left.

    The left is not rioting, and the left did not let the whiteunitetheright do it Charlottesville or Berkeley.
