I assumed you were talking in absolute terms as that is the way all crimes are reported and resources are allocated. The recent fbi and state community roundtables for Jewish organizations, that I have attended, are focusing on organized hate groups, predominately white. We live in the same state and I’m surprised you are hearing a different message from law enforcement.
You can DM me and I can link to the resources. Our state is being very aggressive in addressing this issue.

Get a grip.
I know right? Obama deported illegals all the time

So easy a caveman could do it.

So, why did it tie the President up in knots so?
WallaceBiden: "Are you willing to condemn white supremacy?"

Trump: "Sure, I'm willing to do that."

And then the press secretary gave the list of past condemnations today. After she read it, John Roberts still asked her to condemn white supremacy, then had an on air meltdown. He asked 'will you condemn it?' and MacEnany said "I just did." They are being deliberately obtuse.

And Trump clarified what he meant about Proud Boys by saying they should stand back and let police do their jobs. But the media is still freaking out.

Why is the media getting tied up in knots over a non-issue? They want to divide the country based on race and tribalism. They project... over and over.

Its amazing how the media work so hard to mislead the public that they are a white supremacist group. Last night on the news they said they were seen at the same protests that some white supremacists were at, which so was BLM.

Is it unfathomable for someone who isn’t white to be part of and support an organization that sees whites as being the supreme race or western civilization (white civilization) as being supreme? There are many on the right talking about whites who are self-hating and support anti-white organizations, so couldn’t the same logic apply here.

One needs to step back and look at what the group advocates, their actions, and their desired outcomes. Don’t be bamboozled that there may be someone who they put front and center to ease more moderate people and make the group more palatable to a wider range of people.

For the record, I don’t know if this group is white supremacist, but it seems that they hold quite a few values that would align with white supremacists or white nationalists.

Read this Wikipedia article about the Indian Legion. It was an Indian Nationalist group that aligned themselves with the Walfen SS.

Trump is setting the stage for a coup to overturn the results of the election and putting the Proud Boys on stand by to act when he gives them the command tto arm themselves and take to the streets. They are plotting a war on America.

When Enrique starts howling in despair over his "browness," then you may have a point.

Would that be okay with you? Because exceptions can be found for everything. The point is, Jewish posters find it offensive. Why are you arguing with them over what THEY find offensive???

lol, how many "Proud Boys" do you think there are??

And to talk of "taking to the streets" after four months of rioting by leftists is the height of comedy.
