If most of the victims were black or hispanic, the media would be calling it racist.

So much for the post racial presidency.

A few years back, I left a casino/hotel on the Las Vegas strip after midnight and headed back to my hotel. En route, two females shouted slurs at me, white this, white that. When I turned to see them, I saw about four guys behind them. The next day I inquired with a local and was told that it was part of a Latino gang initiation and that the females were awarded points to prove themselves. Some such nonsense.

Used to live in Sacramento a few years back. The last night of the State Fair each year was well-known to be “beat up whitey” night.

The press reported it each year as mysterious attacks by “youths” on random people.

They also had similar attacks a year or so ago in the Country Club Plaza of Kansas City.

We had a lot of assaults on people randomly walking out of the Iowa State Fair. Most of our victims happen to be white. Is that a racial thing? I don't know. It's all under investigation.

Let's see. It affects whites disproportionately. According to Civil Rights Standards, it must be, otherwise blacks would be being beaten up at an equal rate. Or have I missed something /sarc

Most white children are raised hearing the old saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” Black children are raised to consider the n-word as having some special power over them.

The whole n-word thing would go away if those who are offended by it simply stopped letting it get a rise out them.

I know that's an over-simplification but so much of the damage that word is claimed to do is self-inflicted.

Peckerwood (or simply Wood) is a racial slur 19th century southern Black Americans used to describe poor whites. Blacks saw blackbirds as a symbol of themselves, and the redheaded woodpecker as a representation of working class whites. They considered them loud and troublesome like the bird, and sometimes with red hair like the woodpecker’s head plumes. This word is still widely used by southern blacks to refer to southern whites

They’re just saying that to shut us up. After a day or two they will “find” that the Whites provoked the attacks by existing and that years of oppression justified the attacks and the Whites will be fined for being there.

Do the Des Moines Police, have a policy of hiring only the mentally slow witted, Politicaly Correct cowards, or just families full of criminals?

“Police trying to figure out, if race played role in attacks.”

Well, since the roaming gang of black teen attackers were yelling “it’s beat whitey night,” and the victims were white, here’s your sign morons. Even Cletus Hogg could connect these dots.

Naw, they’re just playing stupid to prevent riots. Now, remind me, when was the last time whitey rioted?

They need to move the State Fair to a REAL part of Iowa. Get it out of da ‘hood and move it near some cornfields.

Oh, but the “n-word” only has the power to “insult” when uttered by whitey. Even something that SOUNDS like it, like “niggardly”, is enough to set their hearts aflutter.

Actually, it’s a matter of using victimhood as power - it’s a staple of the left.

Incidentally, the ironic and very funny thing about the whole “niggardly” affair is that the professor that said the word and was at the center of the controversy was as big a lefty as you could imagine.

bzzzt...

The word “progressive” has now been replaced by the more descriptive and accurate word

“oppressive”.

The Whites will be investigated to see if they are “racists.” When they find someone who claims that one of them said the n word 14 years ago, the investigation will be over and the wild savages will be set free to beat up other innocent Whites.
“Hate crime” laws were created for the sole purpose of putting Whites in jail for anything they say or don’t say and setting free anyone who assaults a White.
