VICTORVILLE (CBSLA.com) — Students at a high school in Victorville said violent fights have been breaking out between African-Americans and Latinos for the past two days. . . . .

I need help from my fellow FReepers. I just cannot wrap my mind around this.
How do we apply the usual Liberal "racist" template to this event, when there are apparently no whites around to blame?
Who are the racists, here? The blacks? Or, the browns?
Or, are both equally racist -- or, since they are non- white, are they given a "get-out-of-all-charges-of-racism-free" cards, meaning that they are color blind and not racist at all.....
... Except that, if they were color blind, would they be fighting along color lines?
Hmmmm... Life can be so complicated sometimes. /sarc

Wow! Wish I had thought of that one! Thank you!
Tribalism.
Used to be town and neighborhood or family or political loyalty.
As families disintegrate, and neighborhoods stratify, it resolves to ethnicity.
The institutional racism of the white power structure that marginalizes and oppresses minorities, pitting them against each other.
They’re both (understandably) frustrated because the white devil has left them few options and little or no chance for advancement. Therefore, they take out their frustrations the only way they know how - they fight.
I think that would be the typical brainsick liberal line of thinking.

Exactly, the media can explain this as the result of white racism, with their eyes shut, and one hand tied behind them.
Future democrats against future democrats?
Between black and brown, I say black. They seem to hate brown.
Liberals no matter the color.
I left California in 1979 - It was going on then - doubt it ever stopped.
Oh, and the Indonesians and blacks don’t like each other much either - another internal conflict for The Won?

That was a response to the headline.
Try to identify the “White Hispanics”
This county is turning into a pest hole (like the rest of CA).
” Who are the true “racists” here?”
Sociologists. Blacks and Mexicans have been fighting one another long before anyone knew how to say “white power structure”, “marginalizes”, or “institutional racism”.
I just knew that I must be somehow responsible.
Besides, how can one race (white) be so thoroughly, genetically different, that they are inherently evil, wicked, racist, and everything else that the particular race is supposed to be, that makes it totally different from all other races, according to the left.
It doesn’t matter. (all of them. literally) Here is what does matter. Keep yourself & your loved ones as safe as possible & try to stay out of the way. (I’m sure that’s obvious, though)
I hope the “blame Whitey” is snark.
WIN! (sorry for the double post)
I tend not to look to place blame for this situation. Like a good mushmind, I “celebrate” diversity. Every time I read where these non-evolved erectus have taken a few more of each other out, I celebrate.
