People in here comparing body counts when the white patriarchy's hegemony is responsible for the disenfranchisement and impoverishment of millions of minorities. White men don't have to be pulling triggers to kill.

What about American culture makes white men act this way disproportionately but not...everyone else
ain't that the truth. Locking Black men away for years for having pot in their possession does the trick just as nicely.People in here comparing body counts when the white patriarchy's hegemony is responsible for the disenfranchisement and impoverishment of millions of minorities.

It's only 1.5 years old but seeing how close they are that's a good point. I'll look for updated statistics. Wouldn't surprise me at all if nationalistic terror has pulled ahead recently.
There was Fort Hood which killed 13 and one in Salt lake which killed 5, plus the Beltway sniper which killed 10. Islamic right wing terror attacks tend to kill more but are less frequent than nationalistic far right attacks.San Bernardino is 14 people killed, Boston Marathon bombers killed 3, Pulse nightclub was 49 ... those are pretty much the biggest "radical Islamic terror" attacks post 9/11 ... that's 66 people, am I missing anything else big?
I don't know though Islamic radical terrorist are still just referred to as " Muslims". Let's not go changing the status quo for white men.....again...Don meant radical white right wing extremists. White men is far to broad. Call your enemies out by their proper name. They have earned it.
Don't try to paint over the deaths of so many to push your agenda.Are you crying yet, snowflake? Sorry that white men have a problem just living normally without seeking power struggles. If you're going to deny white supremacy you're on the wrong end of things here, anecdotal evidence aside. They were all US citizens, and far more crimes (also terrorism) were carried about by white people getting mad at literally everyone else.
True. I'll look for updated statistics. Wouldn't surprise me at all if nationalistic terror has pulled ahead recently.

The study is in the article I linked.
I think he's saying if you reduce it to just color, then he's right. Which points out the falacy of the argument.Good lord he's going to catch a lot of heat for it.
It isn't just white men, and we shouldnt broadly profile anyone. It's white supremacists/nationalists.
Eh, could be bolder.
I think about this pretty much every time he's said something since Trump was elected. That was his turning point
Dude was wildin' the fuck out on New Years. Gave zero fuckspre-him getting drunk at new years and meeting his boyfriend drunk on air
From what I understand, most mass shootings aren't considered terrorism, cause it's not really done with an ideological goal in mind. Pittsburg was, cause that was white supremacist violence but the other two aren't, for example.Vegas dude, Sandy Hook guy, Pittsburgh a-hole seem to match or exceed the numbers, so I wouldn't necessarily say there's a discrepancy there. Right wing terror is more frequent + the number of "mass" incidents (with a large loss of life) is just as high.
This is the best summation of it, but I think we really need to think about the American culture that makes white men act like this. .

I think all terrorists should be labeled accurately. I don't like seeing decent folks lumped in with abject scum.I don't know though Islamic radical terrorist are still just referred to as " Muslims". Let's not go changing the status quo for white men.....again...

It's a horrible, disgusting thing to do and you should be ashamed of yourself.
I swear there must be something in the water over here. We spent at least six years of school basically having teachers hit us with at least two books a year where a good bit of the point was: racism is kinda trash can you just not? But looking at social media its wild how that flew over so many people's heads
The South being allowed to write it's own history after the Civil War is a huge contributor.I swear there must be something in the water over here.

That was before he realized that 46.1% of voters would call him that slur to his face.Whoa, Don Lemon said that?
This Don Lemon? He definitely going to catch some flack for this, but really. Where was this Don Lemon? Could have used him a few years ago.
Well to be fair that's what the right is doing with Muslims and LatinosGood lord he's going to catch a lot of heat for it.
It isn't just white men, and we shouldnt broadly profile anyone. It's white supremacists/nationalists.
Don isn't exactly wrong, more recently in the United States there's been a rise in white terrorism.
The fix for this isn't a travel ban on anyone. It's fixing your old and busted 2nd amendment. Stop letting idiots have access to stupidly powerful weaponry.
Thankfully people can change, and for the better. Not even 8 years ago I was completely on the Right, I watched Fox News every day. Now I'm happy to say it to the world, liberal. Sometimes people need a harsh dose of reality. Trump was Lemon's reality.Whoa, Don Lemon said that?

I did a find in page for Tulsa and it didn't appear :(The right disagrees with a black person in the media.
News at 11.
The Tulsa Race Riot is mentioned on June 1, 1921.
You would be still running in the jungle.

Those are some really good points.I also imagine the graph would look much different if instead of September 12 2001 through 2016, it was the last 10 years from today, or hell, the last 5 years.
If Islamic terror tapered off in the years following 9/11 then it doesn't make Lemons point wrong.
What is being said is what is the *current* biggest threat, and again, it's domestic home grown shit, not foreigners.

And we just had a thread on how people said post counts can't tell if someone is a bigoted troll.

Been here for a long time. Just having fun watching morons.As a white man, what he's saying is genuine and white men are responsible for the vast majority of problems we're facing in America, if not the world in general.
That said, maybe he could have waited a couple weeks before saying this. It's gonna light a fire under the right's ass and fuel their "Them Vs. Us" mentality..
Wow, look at this post count. Not even trying to pretend, huh?
What's your real account though?Been here for a long time. Just having fun watching morons.
Blaming white people for everything. Just as usual ;-)
