White supremacy is not a race, its a political ideology, so I dont think anyone would say that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People easily misconstrue topics regarding white supremacy as "well not all white people are like this!" or "why bring up the fact that they're white, this happens in all communities". Sometimes even on this own site. You're not wrong at all, but that's not what I'm getting at. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s disgusting and embarrassing that in 2019 this is even more of a problem than it was decades ago. Just goes to show you how certain individuals can rile up the masses and bring out the worst humanity has to offer... On topic though; I’m glad more people are speaking out against it and taking action. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miel 15,009 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 My friend's niece was killed in the Gilroy shooting. All three were of Latinx descent I think, who were caught in the crossfires of a shooter who actively quoted white supremacist readings, and likely targeted a community and event that is majority Latinx. Two were kids. The boys were six and twenty five. The girl killed was thirteen. My friend's niece is a Brown child who was murdered in a racially-motivated hate crime. So, before anybody comes in with that- please, MISS me with that b.s. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting in your two cents regarding the racial tensions in the US (and the world) can open a slurry of arguments on here. Dialogue is good of course. But it's hard. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
