""He didn't bother a soul," said neighbor Kathy Mathis. "He was really a nice man."
Mathis was nearby when Greaves was killed around 3 p.m. Greaves had just finished cutting his grass when THE TWO YOUNG (14 & 17) blacks, Spellman and Combs approached him, police said. The teenagers brandished a gun and demanded money, then shot Greaves in the chest.
"From what we can tell, he didn't move as quickly as they may have wanted him to," Clark said. "They maybe took that as some type of resisting, or disrespect."
Mathis heard gunfire and, seconds later, saw the teenagers running from the scene.
"They didn't have to kill him," Mathis said. "He's 87 - they could punch him, knock him down. It's just unbelievable that something like this could happen."
"teenagers" = black murderers;
"punching and knocking down an 87 year old man" is fair play as long as the assailants are young blacks and the victim is and old white man.
The race war in America has already started. Years ago.
Deal with it.
And then I stumbled upon The Thug Report. Just in case you want to keep up with Thug America™, that is the place to go.
This all seems like so much stereotyping to me. But you know how it is. Hitler was a white guy. A German white guy. Thankfully I'm a Jew.
with all the “wildings,” flash mobs, videos of black mobs beating whites traded by black youths on the internet, etc., it’s obvious black youth 1. hate white people and 2. feel free to use violence (in mobs, of course) against whites at any time. Those who refuse to acknowledge this fact are politically correct fools who live in fantasy land.

No, it isn't obvious from these incidents that all "black youth" hate white people. The Des Moines attacks were perpetrated by some 30-40 black youths who obviously do hate white people. But they are hardly representative of all black youth in Des Moines, much less in the entire country.
I will let the Rev. Jesse Jackson speak for me...
"There is nothing more painful to me at this stage in my life than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery, then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved."

"isn't obvious that all black youth hate white people".
But it doesn't have to be "all" for there to be a pattern. After all, to give an extreme example, not all 1950's whites were racists, but enough were to establish a pattern that justified strong criticism of white society.
And one of the criticisms of white society was that racists did not suffer social consequences. Today we see that black Americans can openly and proudly express bigoted opinions and suffer no social consequences, and the vast majority of black Americans participate in the conspiracy of silence regarding black racism. Eric Holder should talk about that rather spew his vile "nation of cowards" sewage.
And don't get me started on widespread black hatred of Jews, Mexicans, Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, etc, etc, etc, ad nauseum.

And when people decry America's levels of violent crime, remember that our crime levels are the same as Europe's if you omit crimes committed by blacks. If anyone thinks I'm racist for saying this, just check out the DOJ's statistics.

Crime rates in most, not all USA cities are little different than in Europe, (including all citizens. And many USA cities have more population than European countries.

Eric, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but Jew or not, you're pretty pale...
On a more serious note -- these are the wages of identity politics.
There's a great passage in Amity Shlaes' The Forgotten Man about a black preacher in the early 20th called Father Divine. His philosphy was that there was no black or white (and he forbade his congregation from using any terms that distinguished people by race) and that we were all just Americans and we could all prosper together.
He was, in other words, the precise opposite of 90% today's "black leaders," who dwell on nothing but our differences.
Hitler's father Alois was reputed to have been fathered by a Jew. Hitler's living relatives, descentants of Alois Hitler have been subject to genetic analysis, and found to have a marker associated with Jews/Berbers.

False flag operations attack your friends to paint your enemies as bad folks, and make your friends look sympathetic.
This doesn't mean the guy wasn't nuts, he may be nuts and have some idea that a false flag operation would help his nutty cause, but because of being nutty, couldn't get away with it.

Don?t bang your head!
This seemed like such stereotyping to me too:
