The U.S. is about to have a major race incident
In a scene that could cross paths with box office psycho thriller “Get Out,” a professed white supremacist traveled to New York City to hunt and kill black men. Authorities charged James Harris Jackson, 28, with one count each of murder in the first and second degree.
They labeled the attack an act of terrorism after Jackson killed 66-year-old Timothy Caughman with a sword last week.
U.S. residents should expect a matching video game, perhaps entitled “Race Hunter” as our nation observes a metastasis of hatred.
The game could ship to the approximate 800 white supremacist groups and be race-altered for the 100 or so black organizations that spew racial discord.
In fact, imagine video game capability that would allow a person to format their hunt tailored to their own bigotry.
A player could track Jews, hunt Italians, vaporize Germans, extinguish lives of Muslims and permanently deport undocumented Mexicans. Pow. Pow. Kapow!
Black on black crime, specifically murder in Chicago, may ratchet up our attention but killings in the first degree regarding race represents a brave new world of bigotry.
The United States death spirals toward a significant race incident as lone wolves act out their sickminded games.
Jackson said his attack had been a test run for some more grotesque incident that claimed a heavy death toll, perhaps, an act more sinister than June 2015 when Dylann Storm Roof murdered nine black parishioners inside Charleston’s Emanuel AME Church.
Roof’s expectations for severe social unrest never materialized as races mixed to shoulder together pain and suffering.
Roof’s murderous rampage stunned us although social observers refrained from identifying his actions as terroristic.
While terrorists hope to kill during their attacks, a second objective desires to alter behavior, get us off our game until enjoying freedom requires looks over our shoulder and constant vigilance.
We have managed to keep the lid on racial unrest but a storm rises on the horizon as blacks and Jews come under attack.
In the 1950s, Cold War and nuclear weapons fears moved many U.S. citizens to invest in underground fallout shelters.
The safe boxes have returned and not based on the potential that Russia might attack. An NBC report noted that the election of President Barack Obama spiked 250 percent.
“In the Trump administration,” Texas businessman Clyde Scott noted, “in the past month our sales probably went up 500 percent.”
The February article should not surprise anyone willing to voice the truth about their private conversations. People live on the edge as skin color and political ideals mean more now than ever.
As rich people invest in underground shelters that can hold a dozen people and two years worth of supplies, others purchase handguns.
Black people have flocked to gun shops since the election of President Donald Trump and also to pushback against the rising tide of violence by police and neighborhood criminals.
While many people offer derisive criticisms of urban violence and murder fueled by poverty, they offer a sound of silence when a white man volunteers information that he planned a deplorable attack on blacks.
The United States is about to have a major race incident.
Maybe it’s time to buy several weapons and invest in underground living space.
