Toure, the self-proclaimed racial expert, has a new column at Time today in which he explains that the election of Barack Obama has made white people violently mad. “Historically,” he writes, “after a surge in black power there is a retort, a reassertion of white power. After emancipation and Reconstruction came Jim Crow. After the Civil Rights Movement came the rise of mass incarceration, which Professor Michelle Alexander calls ‘the New Jim Crow’ because legalized discrimination against ex-convicts means that they lose all the rights won in the Civil Rights Movement.”
So far, so stupid. Toure’s right that after emancipation and Reconstruction, the South was largely left to its own devices, and quickly instituted Jim Crow. But that was a reaction not to increased black power but to the North’s failure to carry forward Reconstruction. The South never accepted the Union victory and decided, “Hey, let’s treat black folks with dignity.” They simply waited for the Northerners to go away. As far as the supposed “mass incarceration,” that would be incarceration of criminals, both white and black, who forfeit rights when they commit felonies. Portraying the rise in crime after the Civil Rights Movement as a failure of white folks who just wanted to smack down the black man is insulting and absurd.
But then Toure gets to the real point of his article: George Zimmerman’s killing of Trayvon Martin, and the racially-motivated shooting spree of Jacob England and Alvin Watts in Tulsa represent the backlash to Obama:
Now in the wake of the rise of Obama, we see the power structure responding by continuing to implement voter ID laws tailored to functionally disenfranchise poor blacks. We see an increase in violent crimes that target blacks but not specific blacks, any black person will do. So we get people driving

Sandra Fluke and Trayvon Martin. It’s all the DemocRATs have to offer for 2012.
Whites have been suicidally nonviolent for 40+ years.
Isn't that simply called ‘nature’ and compromise. I mean why is this portrayed as ‘bad’. So, the counter thesis is that Black Power should increase unhindered, and the White response should be what? Lay down and die?
I don't think he knows it, but that is what he is saying. Essentially what I'm getting, and you hear this from Obama all the time, ‘those stupid White folks keep stopping me from being King. I keep trying to take over, and they just wont let me.’ Stupid racist crackers. They just keep stopping me from doing anything I want.
This is the very essence of ‘Black victimhood’. Blacks are never wrong. White and Police are ‘always’ in the wrong. That is what this whole current drama is all about. It is all about reinforcing and instituting ‘Black victimhood’ as an industry.
That is all they got. I'm a victim. I need special care. I need your money. I need to be treated different than other people.
Blacks are ‘professional’ victims. That is how so many of them make a living. Even while we all know that the majority of Black crime and assault on Blacks is from other Blacks.
It is like we all live in Crazy-land.
“Obama Makes White People Violent”

No, not yet. Unfortunately.
Chastise me if you want, but I’m being to wonder if there is any other way out for us.

And yet, for the Communists, it will probably be enough to beat our sickly offering, the Democrat Mitt Romney.
I feel a Betty Boop cartoon coming on. Strangely relevant!
It’s not the color of his skin that makes me mad, it’s the color of his political philosophy.....RED !
ROTFLOL It sure has I want throw up now.
Nope, not so. White folks don’t like Dictators.
For a split second I thought it was “Obama makes white people vomit”.
Obama makes Americans and Christians violent.......
obama is a WHITE black person. Just like Zimmerman is a WHITE Hispanic person.
We should just take our “beat downs” like goooooood crackers!
This toure idiot has it wrong...black, arab, white or whatever...The fact that nobama hates Free America and it’s existance is what bothers people. nobama’s policies are destroying Free America. That is what makes people disgusted. As to violence...there is none from “whites”. If there were, people like this fool wouldn’t be writing.
