“The mayor of Mobile, Ala. said Tuesday that the brutal beating of Matthew Owens was not a hate crime, as new details emerge implicating the victim as the instigator.”

Maybe some had firearms, maybe not....but I’d take that chance in such a situation. A) I’d have the draw on ‘em from the get-go, and B) I guarantee I have more range time.

I still say they’d run like jack rabbits.

At one time racist whites in the South would beat blacks for “disrespecting” them. The murder of Emmit Till in Mississippi in 1955 for disrespecting a white man by whistling at his wife is a prime example. The Till murder was national news then and now it is in the history books.

Except Till wasn't as innocent as is typically taught. Look it up, and how his 'war hero' father was misused by the NAACP in propagandizing his case.

Of course these scared "jack rabbits" wouldn't come back when you least expect it and do a "drive by", now would they ?

The woman knows her neighbors won't back her up if she did.

Just sit by and watch her and her loved one get gunned down in the streets like dogs.

Until everyone gets fed up with this behavior and organize and arm themselves like the thugs, the best option is to leave...

I’m painfully aware of that, stayathomemom...I was born into and have lived my entire life in what are known as “white-flight” bedroom communities in the NE Metro Detroit area. The contrast is drastic, the rhetoric alarming and the stark reality of the Obama presidency’s detrimental effects on race relations and in the black community in general have been the worst I’ve ever seen and heard of.

Because I’ve learned so much over the years about how White Flight got started, I understand the mentality of what is often mistaken for or hyped as being racism and skin color has nothing to do with it.

A very wise man once told me that “n*gg*r is just a state of
mind.”

You’re changing the context of my reply. I was specifically addressing what I would do, how I would react if I looked out my window and saw a mob attacking someone. Period. Future consequences be damned.

“...20 black neighbors...”

“Neighbors”, eh?

I got 20 uncivilized savages who happen to live in the vicinity.
