Is Don Lemon right about who are the biggest terror threat to this country?

[Themius]

Yeah because that's called guilt by association. If somebody is a criminal it will be caused by the culture the person grew up in, it won't be caused by their identity traits.

You really aren't trying are you.

No one is associating all white people with the crimes of some white people.

[Frosteye]

White males aren't a hive mind,not everyone thinks like you do

Then tell me why a white male SHOULD feel persecuted unless they happen to have white supremacist ideologies? There's literally no reason for white men to feel persecuted by Don Lemon's comment. Waiting for a reason.

All he's saying is that there has been an uptick in "Far-Right Supremacist Terror" -- which is surprise surprise, mostly white men.

Does it make me feel bad for being white and a man? No.

Perhaps because brushing a group of people with a broad stroke is dumb? This is legit exactly the same as saying we should ban Muslims from the country because of a few extremists, which is what he was literally trying to argue against. As a liberal I'm getting so pissed off by all this stupid identity politics shit from both sides. There was a black professor that was like 'I overestimated white people' when it came to the election of 2016. Like WTF man, white people were prob 50M+ of those who voted for Hillary Clinton.

Concerning Kavanaugh, lawyers I know, and lawyers I saw on youtube all said the same thing. Democrats didn't pursue questioning properly, they get to the edge of him committing perjury but never pressed the question to force him to answer one way or another. Democrats didn't push hard enough and allowed themselves to constantly be taken off course.

Gang violence =/= terrorism. Why would he?

Legal Definition of terrorism 1 : the unlawful use or threat of violence especially against the state or the public as a politically motivated means of attack or coercion 2 : violent and intimidating gang activity street terrorism no need to apologize, you weren't taken seriously to begin with

Did you watch the vid? Don Lemon is generalizing white males.

They didnt know nice and civilized before it

By that standard, neither did the occupiers.

Man. That must really fucking suck. I couldn't imagine what that's like.

I wonder why these same people don't see a pattern when it comes to other forms of rape gangs and terrorism but an ethnoreligious group they are fond of fetishizing?

We all know well enough who rapes, its the Mexicans.
Trump told us.

So now we're equating social theory that makes you feel uncomfortable with genocide? Cool.

The majority of white voters voted for Trump. That's just a fact.

Might have something to do with the facts not being on your side. As usual.

So? The majority of brown voters voted Hillary. What's your point.

Yes. We are aware of the hedonistic tendencies of the rich. I already described the situation to you in great detail.

Oh, right. I forgot this forum's stupid quote system facilitates Markov chain-style responses.

[crazyfool319]

not really,it makes a lot of those "evil white men" feel like the left is against them
so they go where they don't feel persecuted and targetted,it just makes sense

They might not be targeted inside that group, but joining that group just means that they put themselves into a group that is not far from persecution. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. You feel targeted so you go to a place that MAKES you into a target?

Trump said Mexicans are rapists? When did that happen? I don't remember that one.

Checkmate from 1992, so we can include the crazy nazi terrorist timmothy Mcvay, terrorists murdered 3,342 people on U.S. soil. Islamist terrorists are responsible for 92% of all those murders. The 9/11 attacks, by themselves, killed about 89% of all the victims during this time. We know spend billions of dollars and have fought two wars to stop it from coming to our shores.

This story has been blowing up on twitter, but the real question is: was Don Lemon right?

This poll just illustrates the ignorance on these forums. This isn't a new thing. It's objectively true that white males account for more terrorist acts than ANY other demographic in the U.S.

People just don't want to believe it because that means they no longer have good reason to hate minorities.

It's not an either or situation when it comes to banning bad ideologies, both Nazis and Islamists can be banned from entry.

What is your source because my source is THE FBI

Domestic terrorism: Perpetrated by individuals and/or groups inspired by or associated with primarily U.S.-based movements that espouse extremist ideologies of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.
--for example, the June 8, 2014 Las Vegas shooting, during which two police officers inside a restaurant were killed in an ambush-style attack, which was committed by a married couple who held anti-government views and who intended to use the shooting to start a revolution.

"gang activity street terrorism" where the fuck are you getting that?

Yes, Islamist are responsible for the biggest attack. But white males carry out MORE attacks than ANY other group.

It's not a competition... It's like comparing two turds and then claiming one of them smells good because it's not as bad as the other. The solution is to get rid of both problems.
