I'm at a loss.

I grew up as a white kid, in an all-white neighborhood, and I was taught not to curse, and not to threaten, and to stay calm and non-threatening, when talking to police.

And when talking to my teachers, and my neighbors, and pretty much everyone else I met.

My parents called it "politeness".

Look at what happened in the former European colonies in Africa, if you want to know the answer.

The world is bigger than the US, white are the minority nearly everywhere. At yet... they don’t riot, steal, loot, murder, ect.

any other excuses?

Been There, Done That!! Grew up and went to school in mid 70’s Hawaii, Island of Oahu. Whites were treated very poorly there. Funny though, blacks were treated the same!! Anyone from the “mainland” were called Haole (White Pig). A name that is still in general use today in Hawaii. Guess what? I got over it.

We whites don’t riot, don’t loot and don’t kill. Even when we’re poor.

That is a naturally black majority area, this isn’t and likely never will be. A backlash will occur long before a 12% minority become overlords. As a matter of fact, Mr. Obama in the White House is probably the high-water mark of black power in North America. We will not see another black president in our lifetimes and probably not in our children or grandchildren’s lifetimes.

Might as well ask “how will the media respond when white people ARE the minority?”.

Kristof is an institutional moron at New York’s most popular birdcage-liner. What do you expect?<p

This guy lives in a fantasy world on an island that never really joined the Union, but just battened and fattened off it, backstopping European immigrants and suspending them in a were-place that wasn’t Europe, but was never really America, either.

When black rage, neighborhoods burn, when whites rage, continents burn.

With us whites in the minority, some cops are just going to see you as a threat no matter what.

Compare the government and press reactions to TEA party protests and the Occupy Wall Street/Ferguson protests.

That day is already here.

The blacks and browns will accept us, advance our culture and extend government protections and the hand of friendship just as we do for them.

At the rate things are going, I'll be glad just to see another president.

Google up Jenne-Jenno (old city in western Africa 500 years ago) and read about their iron culture and how it was politicized/religio-socialized, and then ask yourself if they'd ever have invented triple-expansion steam engines on their own.

Haole is just a descriptive,not an insult.

Travel to Mehi Co. and see the real county, not the tourist parks. This is where the new Americans are coming from. See how they treat non-Mexican white people.

Notice how orientals are NEVER brought up in these little whinings about white racism.

Whites cannot be all racist if they are not also jailing and beating or shooting orientals as well as other colors.

Thus, there must be some other reason for the preponderance of black arrests.....
