My biggest fear is that RW extremist will use Dallas to accomplish what they have longed for...

[Jitter65]

a race war against POCs..not just blacks because in many cases they really can't tell who is and who isn't African American.

These cowards will begin all kinds of anonymous shenanigans and may even shoot at a few cops to get things started. The FBI should be monitoring social media very, very closely...at home and abroad.

1. I agree.

We've come to expect this very thing from the GOPTeaParty.

[yuiyoshida]

2. I agree it is very scary...

Though I hope being in Liberal San Francisco, we are fairly safe. Than again, many in this city remember the Zodiac killer, so nothing is out of the realm of impossibility.

3. Some extremist like a former congressman?

4. We are a long way off from a race war

There are more of us than them and more of us coming. White racists are the minority and continue to dwindle. The shift has not effected who has the power yet and the old dinosaurs are spitting mad giving it up.
But if it comes down to it, this old white woman is standing with poc. I told my family and friends that is where I will be. To paraphrase the queen mother, my daughter stands with my black grandson and I stand with my brown daughter. We will not abandon each other in difficult times

5. My concern is it inspires copycats looking to take out more white cops.

That would not end well at all.

6. I am having a hard time keeping the haters

straight. As I recall some of them hate all law enforcement except county sheriffs, some hate everyone who is not lily white, some hate everyone who is not Christian, some just hate Muslims, others try to lump Jewish people into their hate field, some hate Democrats, some hate environmentalists, some hate poor people and on and on. This just about covers the RW agenda.
Somewhere in there, some will see this horrible time as an opportunity to experience their biggest adrenalin hate rush by creating chaos.

7. Never waste a good tragedy.

We don't even know for sure that the original event happened as they say it did.

[melman]

10. We don't?

Do you have an alternate theory you'd like to share?

[LuvNewcastle]

12. Just saying that in a country where

about a third of the population are outright fascists and most of the media are undependable at best when it comes to delivering the truth about anything, situations can often be very different from the way they appear.

[Initech]

9. Infowars fans are frothing at the mouth over the idea of a race war.

They cannot get their way. It is seriously scary out there.

11. I think a more accurate phrase would be "escalation of the ongoing race war against POCs"

There has been a continuous war against black people in this country for the past several hundred years.
