From the article, is this"Almost 49% of racially motivated hate crimes targeted Blacks, followed by 16% against whites, according to the 2019 FBI data."
Crazy figures considering blacks are only about 15% of national population they are reported to be over three times that percentage victims of hate crimes, while the number for white victims, 16% is higher than I would have thought. I am sure there are considerably more hate crimes against whites than are ever reported or seen as such. I never hear about that.
Many people even have the mentality that hatred of whites can't even be called racism.
All that said, the Hawaiian situation aside, I feel for the couple, the victims in maui, but turning a blind eye to historic and yet ongoing wrongs against people who are different, seems to garner ever increasing consequences.
This back and forth will never ballance out and neutralize. There's just not enough resources to go around. Too many different perspectives, beliefs, desires, tastes, habits and budgets.
We should honestly try to respect others, but I don't think selfishness should always be discounted as wrong.
I have no opinion.
