CNN host: 'The biggest terror threat in this country is white men'

Where would anyone ever get the idea that our biggest threat in America is white men?

Stupid post ^ The bomber was not a MAGA bomber, he hates Trump for supporting Israel - and he's not white. But just keep telling that lie, right?

What was the race of the Pulse nightclub shooter, murdering 49 and shooting over 100? Not white.

What was the race of the 9-11 attackers murdering over 3000? Not white.

What was the race of the shooter of police in Dallas? Not white.

What is the race of the recent mail-bomber? Not white.

What is the race of the Boston marathon bomber? Not white.

What was the race of the San Bernadino shooters? Not white.

What is the race of the Fort Hood shooter? Not white.

Which race in the USA has the highest percentage that are murderers? Not white.

I could go on. Don Lemon is a race-baiting, hate mongering racist liar, nothing else.

Highest percentage of murderers per population: Black

Highest percentage of mass murderers (excluding 9-11) per population: Black

Most deadly terrorist attack in USA history: Not white

Statistically per population, white men in terms of terrorism, murder and mass murder are vastly safer than Blacks and Muslims (though Muslim is not a race, they have not been white Muslims.)

Don Lemon is a hate mongering racist liar.

White liberals who are racists against white people are probably the most ignorant and self destructive people to ever exist. They have agreed to so hate themselves, they'll lie to attack themselves like cultists saying and believing whatever they are ordered to.

MrWonka and Don Lemon are making the accusations here. Not up to everyone else to prove their statements right or wrong. It's their job to prove their own statements.

I feel like the easy access to the statistics has already proven their points. I was thinking maybe you had a different set or interpretation.

Photographs contain facts. If you look at all of them and take all the pictures of mass shooters and terrorists in this country over the last 5-10 years. Add up all the pictures that contain a white man, and then divide it by the total number of photographs you'll get a number that is above 80%.

White men only make up about 35% of the population, yet they make up roughly 80% of mass murderers. When you add in sexual assault it's even worse. African Americans certainly commit their share of crime, but it is generally gang violence caused by poverty and the war on drugs. When it comes to outright violence caused by pure hatred of other groups of people it's virtually all white men doing the deed.


There is no such thing. There has not been one single solitary mass shooting in the United States of America that was not reported on my major news media.

Selected photographs. Those photographs do not contain every mass shooting over the past 5-10 years. Hell, they don't even account for 1 percent.

Do you even see what you're doing here btw? You're doing the SAME EXACT thing that white supremacists do. Using selected cherry picked data to promote hatred.

Right, what he is saying is that we have to stop demonizing outsiders, foreigners, Muslims from other countries when the reality is that we are killing ourselves at a much higher clip than any outsiders.

I think you may not know what the word "verbatim" means.

“I keep trying to point out to people not to demonize any one group or any one ethnicity, but we keep thinking that the biggest terror threat is something else," Lemon said. "Some people who are marching towards the border like it’s eminent. And the last time they did this, a couple of hundred people came and they, you know, most of them didn’t get into the country. Most of them got tuckered out before they even made it to the border,” Lemon told his CNN colleague. “So we have to stop demonizing people and realize the biggest terror threat in this country is white men, most of them radicalized to the right, and we have to start doing something about them.”

Statistics prove them wrong. Just 9-11 by itself proves them wrong.

As a percentage to their race or religion, the most likely terrorists, the most likely murderers and the most likely mass murderers all are NOT white. The highest percentage of terrorist deaths in the USA - and the highest number total - has been by Muslims - none of which were white.

While blacks are only 12% of the population, they account for nearly half of all murders.

Statistics and facts prove Don Lemon is a liar - and he knows it.

But two independent studies issued last month show that the number of Muslim Americans associated with violent extremism in 2017 continued to fall, and the number of Americans killed by white supremacists in the U.S. last year was far higher than those killed by Muslim extremists. More specifically, over the last decade 71 percent of all terrorism-related fatalities have been linked to domestic right-wing extremists, while 26 percent of the killings were committed by Islamic extremists

You just quoted the entire thing in context and you still can't grasp what she said here? Really? He is talking about how we demonize foreigners like the people seeking asylum in this caravan. As if these outsiders coming into our country are the problem. The truth is that we're being murdered by our own people. White Christian Extremists are doing the lion share of the killing. Not foreigners. Not Muslims. Not Mexicans.

The leftwing MSM and press have basically declared 9-11 never happened at all. Nor the Pulse Nightclub shooting. Nor any other non-white terrorist attacks. The statement by Don Lemon isn't only extreme hate-mongering racism, it also is a collection of lies.

This still indicates you don't know what "verbatim" means.

He said we shouldn't "demonize" groups of people, except for white men. He didn't say "it's us killing ourselves;" I'm sure he doesn't include himself in "white men" and I'm sure he doesn't consider America to be only "white men." You didn't even paraphrase it accurately, let alone quote it "verbatim."

Outsiders coming to our country are our problem.

So you admire those young men abandoning their children, wives, sisters, mothers, parents and grandparents to be "murdered by White Extremist Christians?"

If you are going to just make up crap like you just did - why not go all the way? Claim they are being murdered by Trump's White Christian Cabinet members.

That is just about terrorism. The data shows right wing terrorism is America's #1 threat. So, the comments in the OP are accurate, if intentionally divisive.

Yes, he's referring to outside groups of people. He's referring to this caravan of immigrants you've got your panties in a twist about. They're not the threat.

It is primarily white people, and the lion share of the mass hate based killings are being carried out by white men. That is exactly what he's saying and you know it.

If your link is wrong about the number of mass shootings in the US then anything else that they attempt to show is invalid.

There have been 297 mass shootings in the US so far in 2018 — here's the full list

And that is just for 2018. Your source is attempting to count between 1982 to 2018. Looks to me like your source is seriously lacking in data.
 
Kal'Stang said:
So, you're not basing your theory on any facts. Just perception. No doubt perception based on what is in the major news media. While you ignore all the mass shootings that happen that don't make it into the major news media.

What in g'ds green earth are you talking about? What mass shooting in recent history has gone "unreported"?
