Recently, a large group of black youths began pummeling white adults in downtown Cincinnati.
The original altercation apparently broke out between a black and white male in he-said/he-said fashion. But that dispute soon turned into a virtual free-for-all.
Numerous male and female black youths sucker-punched a middle-aged woman. Others continued to kick or body slam the victims. There were many disturbing aspects to the beat-downs. One, the violence broke out along racial and age fault lines. After the initial dispute, groups of black youths swarmed solitary older white bystanders to pound them.
Two, the surrounding assembled group of black youths not only failed to intervene to restrain the bullies.

...because Americans have been conditioned to excuse and accept violent criminal behavior from black people no matter what the circumstances. It's a kind of black privilege.
Affirmative Action. Cashless bail. Catch and release. Ten strikes and they're still not out. Etc.
Convince me I'm wrong.

I can answer the headline's question? Because white people don't have the media on their side or corrupt politicians stoking racial flames everywhere. Because white people don't get excused for trashing businesses, looting, and the like. When white people who live in blue cities and states stand up for what's right, they go to prison. Why? Because of corrupt politicians, a corrupt judicial system, and corrupt media. I could go on and on.
It's not that blacks are better treated or preferred by the media and corrupt politicians; the corrupt media and pols only care about a broken, evil, leftist agenda that results in them gaining power and money. They want to rule over chaos, division, and hatred. Why? Because they are like their father the devil; they exist to kill, steal, and destroy.

I'm saving my outrage for the time when it counts. The Kraken will eventually awaken.

Because society in general and the courts in particular are afraid of blacks. Its for a good reason. When an entire demographic is unwilling or unable to control their animal instincts and are unwilling to consider consequences, danger abounds.
#3 is right. The kraken is awakening.

Because white lives don't matter to the left and the left controls most of the media the country sees.
We even have evidence of the super woke DEI police chief saying they were asking for it.
I wonder if she says the same thing every time a woman is sexually assaulted?

#5 has it right. Why are France, UK, Canada and others in such an unholy haste to recognize a Palestinian 'State'? Same thing - fear.

Black fatigue is real. Most whites will avoid a group of blacks whenever possible. That is not racism, that is self-preservation. There are plenty of blacks who are as fed up as the rest of us. It is on them to rein in this chaos. Whites cannot do it.
The media is an evil opportunistic promoter of any racial incident and I believe they are the driving force behind all the chaos in this country. They are biased and it shows because greed and ratings fuel their fire. They are they worst among us.

Nationally, there needs to be a civil war for the law-abiding blacks to clean out the black ferals that so dominate the news these days. Blacks will have to fix this just as the whites fixed their slave problem six generations ago.

Maybe the country has been programmed through liberal politics and media propagandists to believe that a percentage of American Black people are not very violent and homicidal people, who care less about the “White Man’s” law in contravention of history and reality.

The solution: Ignore them, turn your back (but watch it), get in your car and leave them in the dust...if you end up shooting one or more, you can bet your azzz will be in the hoosegow sooner than later. And you won't get out on a $400 bond, I was born and raised in Cincinnati on the west side, played in the streets after dark, and believe me, I never go back without protection...when I have to go back...

What is deplorable about this is the police chief first pretended it didn’t happen and when the videos appeared showing that it did, made excuses for the thug behavior. Also, the city council’s Victoria Parks statement approving the violence was shameful. Even the mayor implied the victims were guilty of walking down the sidewalk and being white.

Since when do 34, 39 and 24-year-olds qualify as "youths??!!" They were savage ADULTS doing the beatdowns, not "youths." Calling them "youths" seems to me like excusing their crimes as the actions of out of control hormones or something.

I'll make this clear: Feral black thugs. Not "teenagers." Not "youths." Not "yutes." Feral black thugs.

From poster # 10: "The media is an evil opportunistic promoter of any racial incident and I believe they are the driving force behind all the chaos in this country." Bravo! Standing ovation necessary for pointing out just how insidious the Enemedia really is and how everything would be much better off in this country if they were not bought and paid for by the Demonrats and other communists.
I have an ongoing years long "discussion" with a good buddy about this very thing. He contends it is the individual's responsibility to find the correct/honest resources to keep abreast of the news. I, otoh think our media is supposed to be the watchdog of all that is going on, especially concerning the government, and one shouldn't have to sift through a ton of lies to figure out what is going on.
Somehow the Enemedia needs to be held accountable since their chicanery, to put it lightly, is one of the biggest reasons the evil DemoRats have been able to make the progress they have toward total power over the last few decades. If suing them out of existence is the only avenue, so be it. But somehow they need to be reined in so more people will have the information they need to make any sort of intelligent decision.

Outrage and riots only occur when a Caucasian harms a Black individual, whether justified or not, like the Floyd situation. He was a thug, a criminal, and a drug addict, but his skin color dictated a massive response.

Was James Delingpole not fired some years ago for posting on National Review a carefully worded guide to his children regarding protective behavior when out in a mixed crowd? Seems more valuable than ever in this day and age.

Exactly as #22 said. I remember when it happened. The article was just a straight and reasonable warning to his children and other people's children and parents. It was the truth and the truth was not allowed in those days. Maybe the wind is now blowing from a different direction at least I hope so. I had been a loyal reader for at least 20 years but cancelled my NR subscription when they devoted a whole issue deploring and savaging Trump.
