White Terrorists Killed More Americans This Week Than Refugees Have in 40 Years
TOM CAHILL MAY 27, 2017President Trump is quick to condemn Muslim terrorist attacks, but he has been largely silent about hate crimes carried out by white terrorists.
After the latest hate crime in Portland, Oregon — in which white supremacist Jeremy Christian killed Ricky Best and Taliesin Namkai-Meche on a train after they attempted to stop him from berating two Muslim women — three people have been killed by white terrorists in the last week. The other hate crime-related murder happened at the University of Maryland, when 23-year-old Richard Collins III was stabbed to death by Sean Urbanski. Collins was just commissioned as a lieutenant in the United States Army.
Conversely, no refugees hailing from any of the countries included in Trump’s Muslim ban have ever killed any Americans. The last time any refugees killed any Americans was more than 40 years ago, when three Cuban refugees killed three Americans (Cuba is not included in the travel ban). Ever since the Refugee Act of 1980, no refugees who have fled war-torn areas to seek asylum in the U.S. have ever killed any Americans. The Atlantic examined crime statistics and found that refugees constitute far less of a risk to Americans than fellow U.S. citizens:
Over the last four decades, 20 out of 3.25 million refugees welcomed to the United States have been convicted of attempting or committing terrorism on U.S. soil, and only three Americans have been killed in attacks committed by refugees—all by Cuban refugees in the 1970s.
Zero Americans have been killed by Syrian refugees in a terrorist attack in the United States.
This includes refugees from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen, which are the countries Trump has singled out for his Muslim travel ban. Politifact gave a “mostly true” score to a claim made by Rep. Ted Lieu (D-California), in which he said the chances of being killed by a refugee were 1 in 3.6 billion. The chances of winning the Powerball lottery’s grand prize are 1 in 292.2 million, meaning you would win the Powerball an average of 12 times before being killed by a refugee.
In building up his case for the Muslim ban, then-Senator Jeff Sessions published a list of 580 terror-related convictions in the U.S. since 9/11, with 380 offenders coming from other countries. However, even the conservative Cato Institute cast doubt on Sessions’ study, pointing out that “terror-related” convictions don’t actually involve acts of terrorism, but are rather the product of other convictions handed down as the result of an investigation for a terror-related crime that never came to fruition:
Only 40 of the 580 convictions (6.9 percent) were for foreigners planning a terrorist attack on U.S. soil. Seeking to join a foreign terrorist group overseas, material support for a foreign terrorist, and seeking to commit an act of terror on foreign soil account for 180 of the 580 convictions (31 percent). Terrorism on foreign soil is a crime, should be a crime, and those convicted of these offenses should be punished severely but the government cannot claim that these convictions made America safe again because these folks were not targeting U.S. soil.
While the numbers back up the claim that the real terror threat is not from refugees, the Trump administration has been eerily silent about the growing trend of hate crimes in the United States committed by white people against people of color, particularly in the name of Trump. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) reported that of the 1,000+ acts of hate reported in the wake of the November 8, 2016 election, 37 percent of those incidents “directly referenced either President-elect Donald Trump, his campaign slogans, or his infamous remarks about sexual assault.”
Among the more high-profile acts of white terror committed by Americans against people of color since Trump’s election include murders by 51-year-old Adam Purinton of Kansas, and 28-year-old James Jackson of Baltimore. Purinton shot and killed Srinivas Kuchibhotla, an Indian-born technology worker, at a bar in Olathe, Kansas, shouting “get out of my country” before pulling the trigger. Jackson, who stabbed 66-year-old Timothy Caughman with an 18-inch blade, drove from Baltimore to New York City for the express purpose of killing black people and getting media coverage for it.

I think black terrorists in Chicago take the crown.

It's mostly black on black crime in Chicago. Still terrible but not a hate crime.

The article is crap.
It claims that most of the hate crimes are anti women. If they were gonna be honest, then they would have to also claim that any male that this happened to also faced anti male hate.
If a muslim who happens to be a woman is harrassed, they count it as an anti muslim and anti woman hate crime, but if it happens to a muslim who happens to be a man, then it only happened to a muslim.
It reminds me of Don Lemon and Simone Sanders saying that the Chicago kidnapping wasn't a hate crime because the victim was a white male.
We also saw this mind set on yesterday's BBC's The Big Question when they asked if whites can face racism and only Rev Betty King (black woman) said that YES, whites can face racism. She also said that men can face sexism. Everyone else, including the typical white male cucks they have on the show, said that only whites can be racist and only men can be sexist.
-
honestly the people facing the most racism nowadays are white people especially since people consider it ok/impossible to be racist or hateful towards white people so i always laugh when people try to blame something on white people when everyone else has a list long version of it. also weve barely taken in any refugees compared to europe and you can tell how THAT turned out for them
-
Even if we allow for the dictionary fallacy, where SJWs changed the definition of racism, Whites are the victims of systematic oppression.
The "white people go around" anti white event had the police there to protect the anti white "protesters" who forced whites to walk through the creek to get to class. The police arrested whites who tried to cross the bridge.
If the races were reversed, Obama would have sent the FBI in, like he did in Ferguson.
SO, from the top down, it shows black privilege that they can do a clearly racist event and get away with it and protected by the state.

White Terrorists Killed More Americans This Week Than Refugees Have in 40 Years
One of the main characteristics of the modern conservative movement is xenophobia. It is a blinding fear of anyone who is different from them, especially different cultures, religions, ethnicities, and races. This xenophobia also makes them find it acceptable when people who do look like them commit atrocities- or, rather, the reason why they do these things is either justified, or they are individuals not acting on behalf of their group identity.
But if, for example, a gay man with extreme internalized homophobia shoots up a gay nightclub, it's not because of his internalized homophobia if he happens to be Muslim. It must be because he is Muslim.
If a white man assaults a black man, it is just an individual drunken brawl.
If a black man assaults a while man, it must be because of the Black Lives Matter protest down the street.Conservatives are incapable of seeing members of outsider groups as individuals- they are all just one huge undifferentiated mass of enemies. I'm an atheist, and I have been in discussions with conservatives who think Atheists are "in league" with Muslims. Numerous times I have seen them pretend that Liberals "love" Muslims, or that we encourage black on white crime.
Oh, and the time I was accused, as a gay man, of being the reason for a rise in teenage pregnancy. The number of teenage girls knocked up by gay men must be higher than I thought. Also, us gay men are all in favor of female genital mutilation, since we spend so much time dealing with female genitals. I'm not kidding. That accusation was hurled at me on a Breitbart forum.
This is all because conservatives cannot think- they just feel intense blind fear, and their desire to scapegoat makes it easier to group their imaginary enemies together in one convenient package to demonize. For the nutjobs on this website, the label they use is "libtard". I wonder how Sarah Palin feels about that word? She must be so conflicted.

no one ever assumes a white guy beating up a black guy is just "some drunken brawl" they chalk it up as racial violence, a hate crime, white supremacy being on the rise etc. part of why some white people find it hard to defend themselves against black people when attacked for fear of coming off as racist since people will automatically assume it was the "white racists" fault ::)

What you just wrote is the exact opposite of reality. I'm talking about actual crime statistics, and the assumptions of the police and the prosecutors. You are talking about the imaginary liberal media that only exists in the propaganda from conservative media.

The Title of this article is total nonsense. Can you give me one factoid sentence that makes the case? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt if you can.

UMMMMM, you are delusional.
Don Lemon and Simone Sanders said "it aint no hate crime" about the Chicago kidnapping because it was a white victim and black perpetrators. Even after the 4 criminals admitted it was a hate crime, CNN still refused to label it as such.
Even a liberal should realize that if the races were reversed, it would immediately be deemed a hate crime just from the livestream video by the criminals. Then again, modern liberals are too thick to get it.

Don Lemon and Simone Sanders …
Who?
Again, your bigoted mentality. You read about some individual saying something, and you pretend they spoke for ALL individuals in the group classification you hate.
However, when some white person says it's OK to kill black people, you consider them to be one individual loon who speaks for no one but themselves.
Stop your group-think.
As usual, the "identity politics" is 100% done by conservatives.
-
LOL, how sad.
I gave you a perfect example of real liberal media doing something you say was imaginary. Your response to that is to call me a bigot. Go figure.
It was you that had to go all racist, not me.

"group think" "identity politics done by conservatives"
this is so rich considering the left has capitalized on identity politics and group thinking.
as for someone white ever calling for violence (or imagined violence as is usually the case) the left always takes that opportunity to virtue signal about how "white supremacy" and racism are huge issues that are coming from the right meanwhile widely accepted and promoted groups like black lives matter are calling for the death of cops with chants like"pigs in a blanket fry them like bacon" and "what do we want dead cops when do we want them now". -

It is fake news, therefore it's liberal news.

Man, you white male snowflakes really want to be special. "People are mean to me because I'm a white male, waaaaaah." Poor things. As if white men have EVER had any real oppression or racism thrown at them in the entire history of the world. Look at yourselves. Look at what you've become. Poor things. C'mere and lemme give you a hug, I'm sure it'll make you feel better.

Shhhh.....being a cop is a choice unlike being the race you're born into. Shhhh....not every cop is a white man. Shhhh.....

The question should be, should we expecting ANY refugee crimes? The answer should be 'No'. so I don't know what the point the article, trying to say.
