As, Nezua pointed out on Twitter, this one is too rich. From an article at The Huffington Post about the increase in racial threats and crimes in the wake of Barack Obama’s election as our new President:
“Potok, who is white, said he believes there is ‘a large subset of white people in this country who feel that they are losing everything they know, that the country their forefathers built has somehow been stolen from them.’”
So, of course, this is all the reason you need to go around attacking black folks.
Oh, the irony, it burns!
…
See, this is the problem. When someone just up and says something like that, how is it even possible to respond other than with incoherent sputtering?

@smadin: You should have seen us on Twitter. We could barely type coherent sentences just from laughing so hard at such an utterly ridiculous viewpoint.
So, of course, this is all the reason you need to go around attacking black folks.
Except if you read anything you know the opposite appears to be true!
@Toby: Speaking of reading, did you actually read the article linked about the increase in racial threats and crimes? Jeebus, where the fuck did you come from?
