(18,124 posts)in this god forsaken, money driven, greedy society and though all won't admit it, all are victims of the upper class greed, that is a given. The elite bankers, corporations and all PTB love all this discord. Our minds are off their robbing us. That's a given.
Yet racial hate, and how it is agitated to make the lower classes of whites fearful enough to kill any black person and feel justified in doing so, is an immensely large component of all these murders mentioned in OP. Anyone who tries to say it's all money/class is off the mark, I think. Racism has been and will be one of the major reason this country will never realize it potential as a diverse and vibrant society. Amerikkka has ALWAYS squandered it's assets. ALWAYS! Ahhhh, I'm sick of seeing the same shit happening over and over and knowing that no matter how many protest, IT WILL NOT STOP. Racism hasn't gotten better, it has gotten worse, especially in the last 6 years with RW hate radio and fux news agitating the RW base into fearful idiots frothing at the mouth. The 'birthers' gave me my clue, we were in for some trouble. America STILL has a long way to go and I seriously wonder whether we'll see racial harmony again in this country.
People out in the streets have been agitated into an anger that I haven't seen since the 60's, both white and black anger is seething. Where it stops nobody knows.
