Not all Jews are "white", any more than all Catholics are Italian, or all Muslims are Arabs. Judaism is a religion and a culture, not a genetic heritage. Looked at another way, it is quite possible to convert to Judaism and identify culturally AS a Jew, but no amount of "conversion" is going to allow me to become Black or Asian.
For what it's worth, I am Jewish AND White.
Understood and I think we can have a respectful conversation.
I agree with you. The charges are justified. No doubt there at all. No one should be physically assaulted because of their racial identity or religious identity--this was the promise of "equal protection" and why I support it and am angry to see Obama & Co destroy it.
My point is just that the law is being selectively enforced and a lot of that has to do with racial identity. The politics and racism of the Obama Regime have dictated that "whites" do not get equal protection. I think that is obvious. If you have any doubts, just look at how the media reports it.
The NYC attacks have specifically listed the victims as "Jewish." Obviously, this was a criteria their attackers used, but it's also what makes it news. The many years of attacks on non-Jewish whites didn't make the news.
I think there is a massive divide between people who consider "Jewish" to be a religion and those who consider it a race. I'm not stepping into that, just pointing out that for many secular Jews, "Jewish" is indeed a racial identity--and they tend to be the ones defining the terms. You can disagree, and I would too, but in America, self-ascribed minorities get to dictate the rules.
No one should be physically assaulted. period.
adding things to make things MORE ILLEGAL pisses me off. assaulting someone is wrong. I dont care if they are gay, straight, transgender, questioning, black, white, hindu, muslim, chinese, austalian, American, whatever. All of these crimes should just focus on the fact that they are assault. Regardless of anything else.
Bingo!
It doesn't matter what religion the person being attacked practices, if any.
Just as it's wrong to murder another human being. Trying to make one murder somehow worse than another by what some other 3rd party "feels" about the motivation is total BS. We used to be a nation of laws.
