My thoughts on a "race" war. There won't be one.

dreher
It is ever so simple.  Most people, are decent people.  White, black, black, white it makes no difference.  90 to 95 per cent of both races are good honest decent people.  Neither whites nor blacks would be out looting and burning.   

The white trash and the black trash???  The trash is just that.  Trash.  They are the problem, not the good people!

    When or if a "Civil war" starts, the UN Troop will come in and occupy the USA to quell the war. Chinese will make up the bulk of the UN Troops. THE USA WILL FALL.

    The reboot "Red Dawn" scenario without actually invading but "invited" in. Sons of Sun Tzu would be proud.

    This is a problem which various groups may be working hard to overcome by inciting good people to feel robbed and threatened by the forces of law and order.

    I don't think that the current unrest can quite be compared to the Revolution or Boston Tea Party.....Just my opinion. This is not revolution against a monarchy. It is violent protest of isolated incidents of police brutality. Opportunists looking for reason to create fire and destruction for the sake of fire and destruction. We can talk about the institutions and the reasons why some groups seem to be targeted more than others. These situations are magnified by social media and more real time reporting in general. I do think that a murder was committed by that officer and he will be dealt with.
    The comparison is valid IMO.  My reasoning is that violence is attention grabbing, can be motivating, and in can be the only way to strike back at overwhelming powers.   The reasoning behind the events need not be the same.  Powerful well armed government officials are not concerned with peaceful protest.   If the situation ever comes about that  we the people decide to use armed resistance against our government it will not be peaceful.   The English powers and the majority of the people  considered the Boston  Tea Party an illegal act (which it was) and the participants criminals.  In history we consider them patriots and heroes.  To be clear  I do no think of the people looting and burning right now as patriots or heroes or that they are even right to do it.  But I do understand it.

    My point is to condemn violent protests simply because they are violent is not going to resolve any issues.   The issue has to be kept front and center  and addressed, or not, as appropriate.   The issue can't be sidelined because we don't like the people involved.  That is why I bring up the Boston Tea Party, to illustrate that  violence isn't bad just because it is violent.

    We are all participants in the over reaching abuse of power our government often orchestrates.  We vote these people in.   We agree to give them that power.   If someone decides to strike back we are all targets.  Private property or public property, striking either is also a strike against the system, because we are all the system.   

    We do not have a monarchy, but a controlling oligarchy is growing if it continues it will have to be dealt with.  I doubt it will be peaceful.


    My point exactly....these protests are violent for the sake of violence. The stores being burned and looted have absolutely nothing to do with the race relations in our society. Throwing a load of Tea in Boston Harbor......while illegal at the time, was a direct protest against unfair taxation.
    This is a protest against police abuse of power.   Race relations are being thrown in for all the common reasons.   Direct action against the police would be a direct action against what is seen as unfair.   I'm not condoning it,  just stating things.

    There simply is no reasonable excuse for this type of behavior. It is criminal, and should be dealt with as such.

    You might want to rethink what you're saying and recall the protesting events that led to the American Revolution.  
    Are you thinking of the Tea Party?  That was an act of specifically-targeted protest against punitive taxation.  It wasn't generalized wanton destruction.  Have you other examples?

    After a point it became not a civil protest but a bid for independence and consequently a state of war.  That too is a whole nother animal.

    I was thinking about a lot of protest type events where citizens gathered to air their concerns about the authoritative actions taken against them, some of which turned destructive and/or violent.  There are similarities between some of these events where public anger, assembly, and violence directed at authority cannot be denied, whether a war followed or not.  This is the common-sense point that is so easily seen.

    Only about 1/3 of the people supported gaining independence from England.  About 1/3 supported England and the rest didn't worry about it.     My point being it doesn't take a majority to make a protest valid.

    Good point.  Opinions on this subject will not change, though, as the lines are drawn.  It's the new norm for our society:  Yer either agin us or with us!

    It's nothing more than an open ended statement as to whether a person supports what one person described as depraved indifference or what other people see as tough *

    They made their mess.  We watched them be taught that the PD is the enemy for decades and decades.
    We all know who owns most violent crime and who commits the majority of the crime against them..............Them.
    Decades of spin and making excuses has let the s*** show continue.  
    Unless you had boots on the ground in the destroyed democrat cities - you have not one clue about the ruination that has occurred.
