Liberals are just mad that most modern-day terrorists are left-wing lunatics. That's no fun. The last great white conservative home-grown terrorist they could fap to was Timothy McVeigh. They need a new, fresh boogeyman.

Um...they were white. Which shows us how nuts SLJ is. He has a history of ranting about (among other things) what he considers to be injustices towards Muslims. So he probably meant to say that he wished they weren't Muslim.

They aren't Asian or black. They are white unless you intend to create another racial group. In my mind there is no such thing as race but because society likes to place people in groups ... they are definitely white.

I could say everyone other than the eskimos and people from Qatar are really aboriginal Australians but that wouldn't make it so. Those folks aren't white and your insistence to the contrary won't change that.

I didn't make the rules. Google Caucasian in Wikipedia and look at the definition.

Much needed context to the statement:
Quote:
"When that thing happened in France, we were sitting there going, 'Oh, my God, these terrorists!' And I can't even tell you how much that day the thing that happened in San Bernardino — I was in Hawaii — how much I really wanted that to just be another, you know, crazy white dude, and not really some Muslims, because it's like: 'Oh, ****. It's here. And it's here in another kind of way.' Now, okay, it happened on an Army base and it happened somewhere else. But now? It's like they have a legitimate reason now to look at your Muslim neighbor, friend, whatever in another way. And they become the new young black men."

+1

THIS article covers more bases and I think explaines what he meant better.

Quote:
Jackson made a comment regarding the recent San Bernardino shooting, in which he claimed he wished that the shooter was “a crazy white guy,” rather than a Muslim. Conservatives of course salivated at this comment, yet Jackson made an interesting point. The fact is, Muslims are a distrusted minority in the US, and the San Bernardino shooting made things much worse.

The fact is, white people in America are not inherently distrusted, even though white Americans commit far more mass shootings than any other group. The point Jackson made refers to the fact that if a white guy was behind the shooting, no one would get into mass hysteria over a “white” threat. Muslims are not afforded this luxury.

Facts show that Americans are more likely to be massacred by their white neighbor, yet Muslims are the ones distrusted the most in this case. The fact remains that white Americans would not suffer the same stigma that Muslims would suffer for such a deadly event. Past shootings are proof of this.

Mass shootings by whites happen all the time, yet white Americans are not stigmatized in complete ways over it. More often than not, the shooters are called “crazy” and “lone wolves” who clearly don’t represent all of white Americans. Yet, Muslims are not granted this same level of courtesy. If a Muslim commits a shooting, or attack of any kind, it represents all of Islam by definition.

White Americans are not labeled threats, even though most threats in the US stem from white Americans. An inherent bias exists here. No one has to worry about white Americans suffering stigma from a mass shooting done by a white American. Muslims worry greatly about these things, because they are already stigmatized by suspicion and fear.
