I agree that it is very sad what Latinos are doing to blacks. Given that Latino crime against blacks is so much more common than white crime against blacks, does anyone in the black community ever even entertain the idea that, just possibly, 21st century black hatred against whites might be a little misguided. I realize that in past centuries, whites that are now DEAD committed atrocities against blacks. If you can find one of THOSE whites that is still living, by all means do something. But now, in the 21st century, it seems that for every one black murdered by a white there are ten murdered by latinos. Does any of this make sense to you??? It certainly makes sense to me and to 95% of the whites east of the Grand Canyon. Maybe you should do something about it before a gigantic black white race war makes you less capable of defending yourselves against latinos. Your misguided hatred reminds me of the Somali pirate who said he was going to take revenge against his Greek hostages for what the US military had done.
