..... and nonwhites are being hunted down by racist police...
... if whites are such a threat to the lives of nonwhites...
Then can someone tell me why whites are murdered by nonwhites (excluding Asians, who very rarely but sometimes commit violent crimes against whites) much more frequently on an annual basis here in the U.S. than whites murder nonwhites?
I'm not trolling. I really want to know. I have read many files from the FBI's annual crime reports as well as many other news on this. If it was reversed - if whites were killing nonwhites with the frequency nonwhites kill whites - every major city in the U.S. would see protests basically every weekend of every year if not every day, and riots would never end.
Why is it that nonwhites target whites for violence, including homicide, far more often than the other way around if this country is a country of "white supremacy" and "systemic racism?" If that was the case, shouldn't major headlines focus on the stories in which whites are the victims, yet everyone knows about Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, and George Floyd?
Because nonwhites feel whites have been given unfair advantages. They feel whites owe them something just for existing. Never mind the fact that most white folk are just out to earn a living and provide for their families just like nonwhite folk are.
I’ve always been of the mindset and opinion that nobody owes anyone anything. A person needs to apply themselves and work to get what they want in life. Part of the reason the fight for 15 bothers me as much as it does. Nobody is forcing people to work a dead end minimum wage job. Of these folks want to make more money and have a better life they should go out and get it. Find a better job, work to get it. Work hard and earn a raise on your own merits. Don’t wait for some bureaucrat to write some law to give you more money that you didn’t earn the right to.
As for why we hear more about white on no white crime than the other way around, blame the media bias. It fits their narrative better. This is why the media dropped the Colorado shooting so quickly. The guy pulling the trigger wasn’t a white guy. Also why very few people heard about the black guy who killed a white child in cold blood for riding his bicycle in front of his house around the time Floyd died. It didn’t fit the media’s agenda.
My biggest beef and question for that matter is why are these issues seen as thing ANY government can fix? IMHO, these are societal problems that are better discussed on social platforms/social media. The government has ZERO bandwidth to deal with this stuff. Why even attempt to burden the government with these tasks?
If "white supremacy" and "systemic racism" are real
America is the most diverse country on earth. It has the most immigrants, Hispanics, Asians, and blacks of ANY developed country on earth by far. That is a fact. Other countries talk about diversity, America lives it. And it's the only developed country that ever had a black head of state.
America, as the word's charity, has shown that it has more than done it's part of proving it's not racist.
If people of color want to whine about being born in the richest country on earth, just because it's occupied by white people, then they are free to fly to another country and see how well they're welcomed there. But on the global stage, American people of color have still won the lottery, even if thy choose to squander their winnings.
MLK is rolling in his grave seeing liberals complaining after 8 years of a black president with a Muslim name.
How are you measuring diversity? Which index are you using specifically? And are you going by pure numbers? The U.S. has a very high population compared to most countries so using population numbers isn't a good measure. Diversity indexes, however, are. And most don't agree with your assessment that America is the most diverse country on earth.
Is your focus on linguistics, ethnicity, culture, race?
I agree that America is quite diverse and we have several cultures and languages spread across the nation.

It's all pretty simple. Non whites are going to keep reaching...
And whites are going to perceive this as overreaching.
You bring up MLK. Back then social conservatives (of both parties) thought MLK was overreaching.
Fifty years later most conservatives think that MLK was justified... but that non whites NOW are overreaching (LGBTQ and other for that matter).
It will be interesting what "conservatives" in 2070 will be thinking about what happened in 2020 regarding social justice matters.
That is of course if you aren't all rounded up and put in the gulag by then.
Those who speak this way are usually losers who contribute nothing to society and blame white people for all of their failures. If you live in the real world, it's easy to see who commits the most crime in the US. No fake woke narrative can change that.

It's all political...votes, which in the current administration's case, might backfire.
