From BuzzFeed:

Fires burned four predominantly black southern churches over the last week, and authorities say at least three of the blazes were the work of arsonists.

Since Dylann Roof killed 9 black churchgoers in Charleston, black churches have been targeted by arsonists in the south. It seems like we're going back to the Jim Crow era when white supremacist terrorists regularly targeted black churches.

Thoughts?
 





Hyperbole. A few lone idiots doing stupid things does NOT mean Jim Crow come again.


:roll:
 
In response to Roof or the Flag or just more random idiots I wonder.

I didn't say Jim Crow itself was coming back. Reading comprehension.
 
Lets see who is doing what first. Arsonsists burned a black pastors church in Ferguson a few months ago. Arsonists destroyed a black pastors southern baptist church in Baltimore about a month ago. Arsonists burned a black pastors church in Melborne Florida...twice...since February of this year.

Catch the culprits. Fry the culprits.
 
Arson is terrorism.

What is the exact number of racial arsonists it would require for you and others to admit there are racial problems in the South? Just curious.

Because this has all happened in a relatively short period of time, and I am fairly sure there were months during the actual Jim Crow era that didn't see this much vandalism and violence.

So what is the precise threshold, here?

Why don't you ask me yourself?

If Islamic terrorists had burned down three predominantly white churches in one week, every mainstream outlet would be covering it 24 hours a day, there would be 10 threads about DP alone and the U.S. government would be ordering surveillance in every Muslim community in the United States.
