I often wonder how people can say things like this and keep a straight face. I mean this woman, how does a person with no IQ get into any kind of position of power at all.

I think it’s bad when the lowest common denominator is a much higher percentage than the decent folks.

As to your comment on violence, it does seem to be the only thing many people understand.

So in other words blame the attacks on the victims.

the accomplishments of the Jewish community triggers feelings of resentment, and a sense that Jewish success is not also their success

The response COULDN'T POSSIBLY BE to emulate them, could it?

Generational “steepage” in this belief system leads to it just being an unquestioned assumption.

I find it fascinating that this issue did not hit the national media until it could be linked to attacks on Jews.

Freepers know this has been going on for quite some time, but the media didn’t consider it a story as long as the victims were merely random ordinary white people.

The difference being that the German Jews didn’t support the NAZIs.

Unfortunately, some did. Right up until it was too late.

Their accomplishments make the black “community” look bad.

She also slammed the media for raising alarm over assaults on Jewish victims while failing to communicate outrage against violence in the black community.

By all means, report those instances of Jewish violence against blacks. Should be easy to spot, the perps will likely be wearing yarmulkes.

Who knew it was just a little tension? They should be able to fix that with a meet and greet covered dish party. Then they will all get along. /s

What this letter amounts to is recognition of the commonsense idea that when Community A feels that its turf is being invaded by Community B, the less-controlled members of Community A may be expected to react with violence against perceived members of Community B.

This is basic human biology/psychology. Not that it justifies criminal behavior. And of course some communities are “less-controlled” as a group than others.

Too bad this attitude of “understanding if not approval” can’t be similarly applied to “white Americans” who feel threatened as a community. Their feelings aren’t considered valid.

“What is the threat??? Clean neighborhood??? Peaceful neighborhood??? Prosperous neighborhood????”

The theat is higher rents. As the neighborhood improves, more affluent people start to move in the the rent increases. This is what liberalism brings, fear of a better neighborhood, and resentment of others more successful than yourself.

So the knock-out game is just a new black intifada to protest the Jewish settlements in Crown Heights

Reading the quote, it’s exactly “violence in the black community”, which, of course, is not perpetrated from outside, but internally.

Again, whitey is the bad guy for not being outraged at violence in the black community until it spills out on the “white” community.

Seriously, people - we figured you liked it, since you weren’t doing anything about it yourselves. You’re saying WE should do something about dysfunction in YOUR community? You have liberals/democrats to blame for that.

In the beginning some thought Hitler was only going to go after the "Bad Jews."

resentment of others more successful than yourself.

That's a major difference between liberals and conservatives. Liberals promote class envy, i.e. "it's not your fault you're an effing loser."

I constantly preach to my kids and students (I teach one night a week at my church) that they're accountable for their actions.

Exactly, amazing how discriminatory you can be when you’re not talking about one of the standard “protected groups” eh?

And on billboard today the number one Rock Album is by
Five Finger Death Punch
Doesn’t appear that any band member is black, though. (I really can’t tell by any of the videos.)

I see a recall election as a necessary remedy when you elect an open anti-Semitic Witch into office.

Are we only to cheer people getting rich when they are Kanye West, Oprah and JZ?

Are to look the other way when Assault is called a Game and when Anti-Semitic profiling of its victims is forgiven by the media of Anti- Zionists.

This woman is too cowardly to criticize a part of her electorate.
