This kills me:
Everyone keeping a score card.
When BLM or Antifa riot, the conservatives rub their hands in glee and say "see, they are the violent ones" while ignoring the fact that most mass shootings in the last decade were performed by white shooters.
When Qanon types attack the Capital, or when a white cop is charged with killing a black man, the liberals rub their hands and exclaim "those violent whites."
When a black person kills someone, or when a white person kills someone, everyone keeps a scorecard? Put a check mark in this column but not in this column.
There are victims, and all the victims get are "thoughts and prayers"?
If it keeps you awake at night worrying about what BLM might do next or when the next mass shooting will occur by a white guy, what does THAT TELL YOU?
Hate crimes against Asians in the U.S. are well documented, but on the Right, they are saying the numbers are exaggerated and no big deal. Unless of course, a black man assaults an Asian woman, then it is finger pointing time again.
Yet, I could pose a question like "Aren't you ashamed at how you view violence through such a narrow prism?" and guaranteed, I would get answers like "BUT...Antifa, white supremacists, blacks, whites, them liberals, them conservatives, them commies, etc etc."
Yes we have violence in Canada and hate crimes, but not nearly the numbers you all have down in the U.S. on a per capita basis, plus we don't have storming of Capitals, and very very few mass shootings.
SO WHY ARE YOU ALL SO PARTISAN? Instead of realizing violent crime is violent crime no matter what color of the person who does it, and working TOGETHER to support each other and find solutions? (Such as jailing perpetrators whether they are white or black, whether civilian or cops)
(PS, I wonder if you can avoid whataboutisms?)
