1) I'm not liberal
2) It doesn't matter what race he nor his assailants were. These are singular, anecdotal examples that are not representative of the statistical likelihood that a member of any given race will be on the business end of racism
When I posit that non-whites are three times as likely to be victimized as whites are, this refers to the relationship between two things:
1) non-whites who are victimized
2) whites who are victimized
This is simple math. What's the problem?

Well...it certainly is simple. Not the most scientific approach...but simple, yes.

Of course you, like me, are smart enough to realize that whites are statistically less likely than non-whites to be the targets of racism, right?

Well...when you use terms like “statistically”, I would prefer to see some actual statistics regarding the subject matter rather than the non-scientific approaches you take. I think defining the term racism and what constitutes being a victim of racism would be helpful as well.
I suspect you are probably correct, but I tend to rely upon more than just my gut when making an assertion. Of course, you don’t seem too concerned with that. You prefer to place the burden on others to prove your assertions wrong.

I appreciate the sea-lioning attempt here, but this should all be obvious. Whites comprise of 72% of the people in the United States, so it's virtually impossible to conclude that whites do not comprise of a majority of the racists in the United States. This means that the 50 shades of racism are far less a threat to whites than they are to non-whites.
Your average white person is fair game to 28% of the racists in the United States, and he blends in with 72% of the population.
Your average black person is fair game to 87% of the racists in the United States, and he blends in with just 13% of the population.
For the sake of discussion, let's assume that 1 in every 10,000 people commits an act of violence against a random person of another random race. Whites (72% of the population) can only be the victims of 28% of said acts (with a reasonable margin of error). Blacks (13%) are fair game to 87% of the attacks. Yadda yadda yadda...in this black and white (pardon the pun) vacuum, any given black person is more than 17 times more likely to be attacked than any given white person.
The idea that all other factors could possibly serve to mitigate such a disparity in likelihood is a hard sell, to say the least.

Some Muslims/ illegal immigrants in history have done terrible things and some Muslims/ illegal immigrants in the present have said and done some terrible things = we need to be understanding and be careful not to lump all Muslims/ illegal immigrants together because they're all individuals and not responsible for the actions of their group.
If it helps, this is where I stand for all races. People in general will let evil win as long as it benefits them or doesn't hurt them.
As for crimes, the real blame is our judicial system. We have two justice systems in the US, one for whites and one for other races. It isnt so much that whites should be punished more, but that other races should receive less severe sentences equivalent to their white counterparts.

If you're being honest, I hate that those things happened to you.
However, xiv isnt wrong. As stated, there are always exceptions. Probability doesnt mean it wont happen, it means it has a lower chance of happening to the average person.

Which of the two paragraphs do you believe to be the most honest course for treating groups of people?

Still...in the name of science, definitions and research would be quite helpful. I prefer not to deal In conjecture.

You can frick right off. Radical Islamists had been radicalized in that mosque. what part of that do you not understand?
And the chans have radicalized a few of their own. Does that excuse or justify violence against them?
No takers?

People whose thoughts align with the OP need either a therapist or a math teacher.
Assuming that people of all races are equally racist, a white person is mathematically only 1/3 as likely to be the victim of racism as all other races combined since there's about a 3:1 white/non-white ratio in this country.
This is called white privilege. Non-white persons are mathematically 3x as likely to experience racism than white persons are, unless anyone can provide data suggesting that non-whites are more than 3x as racist as whites are.

Most live in neighborhoods, towns, cities where they are the majority.
The average black or white person is exposed to racism online, not in person.

Are you really comparing the minuscule amount of crazies from the chans to radical Islam. Do you realize how dumb you are? There's no comparison.

Listen, I get it. I live in an area where a disproportionate amount of crime is committed by other races, primarily native. But I am not going to group people by the weakest links, and I expect them to offer me the same treatment.
Let's get back to treating people as individuals, not tribes.
