If all these crimes were committed by whites against blacks the entire Nation would be in complete chaos.
Where did anyone make those comments???

They are made daily in the Press and are directed at all white people.

There are many neighborhoods like this in NY and other States which are not reported by the Mainstream Press. The Hispanic gangs that took over the South Bronx are all over the place and go under reported while we blame the President and White Supremacists. MS13 invaded bucolic Long Island but where is the outcry? Anyone who thinks that disrespecting the flag and calling all White people Supremacists will solve the problem Should take a walk into one of these neighborhoods. It is easy to voice and opinion while sitting on your couch in The Villages.

I have to wince at the the White Supremacist. My experience mirrors s lot of second generation immigrants.

I grew up in the South Bronx and my family had to leave in 1960 because Mom and Dad, a WW 2 veteran, were mugged, almost killed, several times. As a 12 year old in the mid 1950's I had to walk in groups to school carrying stickball bats so as not to be attacked by the Hispanic gangs who attacked us because we were white. Gringo and White Trash were familiar terms. This happened after the white people started to move out and others moved in. We could not afford to move until I and my brother reached age 14 got working papers and could contribute $5 a week each toward the rent. My brother and I joined the Army at age 17 and 18 and continued to send part of our pay home. I was making under $100 a month. Meanwhile in the South Bronx, Apartment buildings were slowly destroyed. Crime rampant. Mugging galore.

And you know who was blamed? The white people. All the crime and destruction was blamed because whites moved out. They called it White Flight which is similar to today's latest Mantra of White Supremacy. Blaming others while you self destruct. However, nearly 60 years later my old neighborhood is still a hotbed of crime. And believe it or not, you still hear the term White Flight.
