You won't be carrying when coming out of a stadium like they were. Best not to insult people in real life, keep doing it online it's safer.

Maybe 50 years ago you'd find all of Des Moines as you claim it is. Today you'd find plenty of blacks and Hispanics.

The truth comes out. And one wonders if it is really racist to keep correctly assuming that gangs are minorities.

Learn to accept it
Your buddies, the hand out kings, the democrats, they were the slave owners. You don't look 150 years old but your crutch is.

Yes, there is a double standard born from the fact that blacks cannot racially oppress whites in this nation and blacks have not racially oppressed whites in this nation. The potential threat to blacks from whites is MUCH, MUCH greater than the potential threat to whites from blacks. Just think of the extreme. If blacks declared war against whites in this nation what would happen to black people? Who would win that war? It would be no contest because whites have the power to crush black people numerically, economically, geographically...AND HAVE DONE SO IN THE PAST!!! Blacks have no such power to be a threat to whites. Its like asking "why can that 5 year old punch an adult but an adult cannot punch a 5 year old". Double standard. The numbers and economic power of whites in this country, relative to blacks, is akin to the difference in power between a 5 year old and a full sized adult.
Nothing to do with your made up scenario. These dirty, low life ghetto, mongrels attacked an innocent couple so you can stop falsely playing the race card and covering for these scumbags.

The initial report i read sad black and hispanic but that was deleted.

I did a google search using these words 20 people attack couple in Des Moines skywalk black hispanic.

The first result says
"A Des Moines man and his girlfriend told police on Saturday night they were ... group of about 20 black and Hispanic juveniles that brutally attacked the man, ... “Our officers have been shoved down the stairs by these people."

But when you go to the link https://whotv.com/2019/10/14/des-moi...ywalk-assault/ it doesn't use any words to describe the attackers.

The video in the link uses the words black and hispanic but it's no where in the article.

What is going on is that whites are under greater scrutiny because their bad history of inter-racial discrimination and violence. You don't like dealing with this bed whites made.....but you are going to have to lay in it.....just like black people have to deal with the socioeconomic deprivations from that same racist past. We would be glade to trade our socioeconomic hardship for your greater scrutiny and double standards.
Complaining about whites while you say nothing about those dirty savages who attacked a white couple. Racism is a defective heart.
