Far Right Wing Violence Has Skyrocketed Since Obama Elected

So Black control would go much further at lowering the national homicide rate then gun control.

It's not about controlling blacks, it's about addressing poverty. Clean up and invest in low income neighborhoods and gun violence will go down.

There have been several attempts at this going back to LBJ's "Great Society" and the housing projects like Cabrini-Green and a host of other programs which have failed miserably. Sure, let's do the same thing again and again and ignore the underlying issue, otherwise it would be politically incorrect.

500 deaths by liberals in Chicago alone.. in one year.

The states with the highest murder rates are all bright red. Fail from you as usual.

yeah... my state is bright red...

and our murder rate would otherwise place us at the bottom of the list if it weren't for the fact that New Orleans, a festering pocket of bright blue, is, unfortunately, in Louisiana...

This last election Michigan was mostly red, except for the big blue splotch in Detroit....where the majority of murders happen. Obama probably would have lost Michigan if not for Detroit!

Not that it's to anyone's surprise, but since Obama became the nominee for president, radical right wing violence has soared.

"A report published by the Combating Terrorism Center at West Point Military Academy on Jan. 15 discusses the potential dangers of “violent far-right” organizations, which has angered some conservatives that believe the military should focus on international threats.

The executive summary of the paper, “Challengers from the Sidelines: Understanding America’s Violent Far-Right,” claims that “since 2007, there has been a dramatic rise in the number of attacks and violent plots originating from individuals and groups who self- identify with the far-right of American politics.”

Written by Arie Perliger, Director of Terrorism Studies at the Combating Terrorism Center and an Assistant Professor at the Department of Social Sciences at West Point, the paper asserts that three distinct ideologies exist in the “American violent far right.” Those are “a racist/white supremacy movement, an anti-federalist movement and a fundamentalist movement,” the last of which “includes mainly Christian Identity groins such as the Aryan Nations.”

“Findings indicate that…it is not only feelings of deprivation that motivate those involved in far right violence, but also the sense of empowerment that emerges when the political system is perceived to be increasingly permissive to far right ideas,” it later reads.

The rise in attacks in the 21st century were significant, as “Although in the 1990s the average number of attacks per year was 70.1, the average number of attacks per year in the first 11 years of the twenty-first century was 307.5, a rise of more than 400%.”

That would be great if leaders in those neighborhoods would stop bitching about "mean white man causing property rates to go up from their investing in the area".

The number of Occupy Wall Street violence incidents has definitely caused the left to go off the chart.

The problem obviously is that if they didn't bitch and whine, they wouldn't be leaders in those neighborhoods. Ultimately victimization is so deeply entrenched in certain segments of society that to suggest otherwise is considered heresy.

The underlying issue is poverty.

Housing projects are a band-aid solution and I agree, they don't fix the main problem.

The solution is to invest in the community, invest in the infrastructure, give the people who live there a reason to believe they can make a difference through education and community outreach. Get them able to stand on their own two feet and get them to pass that outlook on life to their kids. No quick fix. It would take generations of time. But we don't want to spend the money or the time on any of this. We'd just rather put band-aids on the symptoms instead of healing the problem.

Interesting LYING LIBERALS can't cite ONE EXAMPLE OF THIS "RIGHT WING" VIOLENCE, but WE SURE CAN CITE left wing violence.

Occupy springs to mind. It wasn't the right wing that tried to blow up a bridge RIGHT HERE IN MY STATE OF OHIO. That was the left!

Keep lying libs, it won't cover up the truth about where the real hate, and violence is coming from.

That Church that was burned to the ground by Union thugs. That right wing violence too?

You are such a pack of liars!

Yours is a liberal argument I used to make as a teeny bopper. It didn't work then and it won't work now. The underlying problem is one that few care to address and only the black community can solve. The first step is self-reliance, or as the late (liberal) Sen. Patrick Moynihan termed it, "Benign Neglect". At some point society will get tired of pouring taxpayers money down a bottomless pit - again.

No dummy, the thread is about violence in the name of extreme-right ideas.

And you could make an argument that violence in Chicago is an example of a right-wing idea.

Try to fully understand OPs before you post in threads. Okay?

Yeah, you can tell by looking at these guys they are all right wing. (sarc)

You could try but all you will get is laughed at!

The place is COMPLETELY RUN BY DEMOCRATS AND HAS SOME OF THE MOST STRICTEST GUN CONTROL LAWS IN THE COUNTRY!

But go ahead and make that argument. I NEED A GOOD LAUGH!

Self-reliance is getting them to stand on their own two feet which is what I just said.

You aren't going to solve the problem of poverty by ignoring the problem and you aren't going to solve the problem by blindly pumping tax dollars unchecked into their hands each month either. Both the government and private industry need to work together and invest in the community and it's infrastructure.

Your argument is a very familiar one, but one that has not worked in the past unless you consider dependence on government successful. Re-wrapping the same policy and calling it new and innovative is not the ticket either. The problem is not just poverty. Many have come into the country impoverished and bore racism but still built better lives for their children with no help from the government. The problem is far deeper.
