How do you expect the Jewish people to retaliate for the Synagogue shooting?

As most people know, the Jewish people are very powerful and since the beginning , Jewish people have been able to eventually defeat the enemies.  How might we do it this time?

    True enough. And folks should be able to disagree respectfully without devolving into animosity and name-calling.

    Now I've been associated with you for many moons, you're telling me that you have never put a label on another?


    I also don't practice animosity against others.  This post was edited by Beans/SilentGeneration at October 29, 2018 11:04 PM MDT

    Only when presented with you and your anti-Semitism. And it's not a "card." You seem to think that this is some kind of game. Now I am done with you and your obtuseness.

    Sounds like calling someone obtuse is putting a label on them, the same was directed at me, from you, on several occasions. 

    Didn't you just say this in this thread - " folks should be able to disagree respectfully without devolving into animosity and name-calling?

    Yes, but I made an exception for someone who posted some very hateful, offensive comments about Jews and Israel and, to top it off, tried to dictate how those offended by it (especially me) should feel about it. Sorry, but I have no patience for that. As I said, I'm not perfect. This post was edited by Stu Spelling Bee at October 30, 2018 1:40 PM MDT

    Analysis: New data shows US hate crimes continued to rise in 2017 - Published FBI data currently covers hate crimes only up to 2016, when totals increased across the nation for the second year in a row.

    Correct stats for 2017 are not out yet.  As I said I do not care what some website says. 

    The site says "Hate crimes increased in many major cities in 2016 and 2017."  (Again 2017 numbers are not out)

    And I posted above showing (pages over now) that in fact hate crimes in 2016 were lower than they were in 2010. And the crimes by whites also decreased compared to 2010. The trend for crimes by whites decreasing has continued throughout up to 2016.

    What I do find interesting is looking over the year since 2007. The hate crime rate has decreased from nearly 7000 a year to under 6000 and the rate of white perps has decreased from 2007 at 62.%9 to 2016 at 46.3%. 
    Yes there was an in the last 2 years we have data for (2016 and 2015) from 2014. But again the rate for white perps dropped each of those years. 
    2007 6965 White 62.9% Black 20.8%
    2008 6927 White 61.1% Black 20.2%
    2009 6225 White 62.4% Black 18.5%
    2010 6008 White 58.6% Black 18.4%
    2011 5731 White 59.0% Black 20.9%
    2012 5331 White 54.6% Black 23.3%
    2013 5814 White 52.4% Black 24.3%
    2014 5192 White 52.0% Black 23.2%
    2015 5493 White 48.3% Black 24.3%
    2016 5770 White 46.3% Black 26.1%

    Again I know that is not the trend the website is trying to imply. They are meaning to indict Trump and his supporters.

    Who is the target? They caught the perp. What motivated him is anybody's guess. Gab, a conspiracy-theorist social media site? That's no target either.
