White, cisgendered, straight, 'westen' male is on the defensive these days, unsurprisingly, because he detects threats to his standing, which is being assaulted and eroded on several fronts.
I suspect he fears that someday he will be treated the way he treated minorities.
It's one thing to "make friends", quite another to preemptively submit to Islam and even desire for Europeans to become a minority in Europe and US like the Left is doing by advocating unrestricted mass migration from the third world, while at the same time encouraging white people (and only white people) to have fewer kids because "climate".Imo it's a good time to make friends with people from other tribes rather than try to circle the wagons.

Or always badmouth your own race and claim that white people are the root of all evil (such as mass shootings) when the reality is quite different.
Then you have not been paying attention.You keep saying the left is "submitting to Islam". Last I knew, nobody here on the left is doing anything like that.
And also advocate mass migration of high birth rate Muslims (look at what is happening in Europe, esp. in Germany and Sweden), including very hardcore Muslims, that threaten to become a majority in Europe and thus can impose their views on actual Europeans.WE seem to be able to tell the difference between Islamism, which we all vocally reject, and Muslims who are just living their lives as they may.
Nope. I am just not as myopic as you to think that importing millions of 3rd world Muslims who are having 5+ children each is a good thing.You're the one who seems to have a hard time telling the difference. To me that seems to indicate paranoid delusions.
CHICAGO (CBS)– A scare was averted Monday afternoon at the Jesse Brown VA Medical Center, when shots were fired into the hospital by a man with an assault rifle – but nobody was injured.
Jeffrey S. Sallet, special agent in charge of the FBI Chicago Field Office, said the offender was carrying an assualt rifle. He said VA police mitigated the threat within 30 second of the gunman entering the building.
No, it's definitely the former. Now Democratic hopefuls are even attacking Obama for deporting illegals. That's how far they have swung to the far left.
And Bill Clinton? Fuhgeddaboudit!
<<snipped out the video>>
Bullshit.
They don't admit it, but they are for all practical purposes. They want to decriminalize illegal border crossings and they do not want to deport illegals. They want to give illegals more and more benefits such as healthcare which will incentivize even more illegals to come. They do not want to admit that the "asylum seeking" of millions Central Americans is just a ploy to get into the country fraudulently.The Democrats don't support open borders
Republicans have been bad too, no question. Jeb Bush infamously called illegal immigration "an act of love". That's why Trump had such an easy time making mincemeat out of the rest of the field.follow the money, who profits from the illegal immigrant workforce?
But Democrats are doing it for the voters. They want to replace US population with one more likely to vote for them.
Reagan made mistakes, sure. But we are talking about today, the policies that Dems support the ones they oppose, like deporting illegals.The number of illegals working in the US started to jump after the Reagan amnesty bill of 1986. Do you know why? Was it because so many illegals wanted to be in on the next amnesty bill? Or was it because the Republicans wrote a huge loophole into the 1986 bill making it much easier for companies to hire illegals without any fear of being prosecuted for it?
Whatever its merits and demerits might be, it's a left wing policy.Medicare for all is being proposed to lower the costs and to expand the people who have access to health care.
Because of people like Kate Steinle. Her murderer is an illegal felon and SF still refused to honor an ICE detainer and let him go.Sanctuary cities exist because it is a very bad idea to use the local police to enforce immigration misdemeanor laws because the local police need the cooperation of all of its citizens to solve serious local crimes, even the illegals. If the local police help ICE and the border police any chance of this cooperation will evaporate. The border police are now the largest police force in the US. It is hard to see why they have to have the local police to help them with their job.
The only thing sanctuary city policies do is protect illegals. They need to go!
Laughable! Have you watched the recent Democratic debates?The Democrats have always opposed illegal immigration
As I have said, they have swung far left.as you admit with the two examples of Clinton and Obama.
I agree it's a back and forth. Right now, the swing is to the left. And pretty hard too.Why? Because the Democratic Party was much further to the left then and dependent on the support of the labor unions then, the labor unions that the Republicans all but wiped out in private industry. And why did the Republicans wipe out the labor unions in private industry? Answer it yourself, remember, follow the money.
Wrong. Minimum wage was set to $7.25 in 2009. That corresponds to inflation adjusted $8.66 today, according to this inflation calculator.The 15 dollars an hour minimum wage is also reasonable. It is about what the minimum wage would have been if the minimum wage had been indexed to inflation.
He is grandstanding about protecting our borders. She was grandstanding about protecting thugs who rob stores and attack police officers from those police officers.Yes, Hillary was grandstanding by inviting people whose relatives had been shot by the police. I don't know if you have noticed but the Republican Party has elected a president whose only thing is grandstanding, he has nothing else.
<< snipped photograph of Clinton with a millionaire who raised a thug >>
She became a millionaire because she raised a thug who attacked a police officer and in turn got pumped full of daylight.
Most of the examples that you gave of the Democrats moving to the left are talking points straight out of whichever right-wing disinformation site you prefer currently.
Police appear to be on high alert and responding quickly. Has this coincided in an uptick of questioned police shootings (primarily of black people)? Or does this show that the police are well capable of responding to true threats when not having racist overtones?
Which white, cisgendered, straight, 'westen' male are you guys calling "he"?White, cisgendered, straight, 'westen' male is on the defensive these days, unsurprisingly, because he detects threats to his standing, which is being assaulted and eroded on several fronts.
I suspect he fears that someday he will be treated the way he treated minorities.
I guess that is the underlying, ultimate fear, yes, though it's unlikely to happen in any of our lifetimes, at least not in the US or Western Europe. Far into the future, who knows? The projected numbers are definitely not looking good, for one thing.
Imo it's a good time to make friends with people from other tribes rather than try to circle the wagons.
Many questions remain in the motivations of the man who allegedly committed a mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio, last weekend, leaving nine dead before responding officers shot him to death. But officials briefed on the investigation told ABC News the suspected shooter demonstrated a misogyny that was far more extreme than any of his political leanings.

"You hear a lot of men talking not necessarily about women in their own family, but 'feminism,'" Longo told ABC News. "It's 'out there' and there are certain groups of women who are trying to 'poison the well,' if we want to look at it like that, with these different ideas -- and that is what they're seeing as the threat, as this faceless feminism that's coming after them."
This can be exacerbated, she said, by online chatter. Just as social media can be used to influence elections, Longo said, "I think it's the same thing with promoting violence or misogyny or letting it fester in certain places."
A California Highway Patrol officer was killed and two others were injured after a man (Aaron Dennis) driving a truck that was to be impounded opened fire during a traffic stop Monday, starting a gunbattle in which he was also killed, authorities said. "It was a long and horrific gunbattle," Riverside Police Chief Sergio Diaz said at a news conference Monday night. Also, Dennis Luther said he doesn't know what his son was doing with a weapon because he's a convicted felon, making possession of it illegal. Criminal records show the younger Luther was convicted in November 2007 of assault with a deadly weapon, according to NBC Los Angeles.
It stands for ArmaLite.
"Heavy, heavy weapon"? So no M16 or AK47? A machine gun like the M60?CBS said:“It was a heavy, heavy weapon,” said Roy Broomfield, a patient advocate at the hospital. “It could have done some serious damage.”
So now it's a shotgun?“I saw the guy run in there with a long, black — I don’t know what kind of shotgun it was — and he went into the pharmacy. And that scared the bejesus out of almost everybody that was sitting in the pharmacy,” said witness David Leslie. “I saw everybody hollering and running, and the security guards came in there and made them get down.”
The argument is the vast majority of mass shooters are white because that is the reality in the USA. According to this site - https://www.statista.com/statistics/476456/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-shooter-s-race/ - out of the 114 public mass shootings between 1982 and August 2019, 64 were by white shooters. The next largest were 19 by black shooters.So how does that fit the leftist myth that mass shooters are white?
