    That is giving them too much credit. Often the black men convicted of violent crimes are scapegoats, but at least a crime was committed. Here? Pure fabrication.

      Sure but it's the best attempt at a current comparison to something they should already be against in order to illustrate the mindset they're carrying.

      One that isn't current I guess is viewing black people as if they're all predisposed rapist apes. But I don't know if that's coming on a bit too strong. It does illustrate the kind of mindset they're carrying though, when they think of muslim arabs they assume they're some sort of barbaric rapist monsters and all of their analysis is coloured by the prejudice this base assumption creates.

        I think if the "war between people and vermin" quote posted the other day was real (still waiting on footage from them. . .) then that is an apt comparison.

      Just to clarify what you're saying: Not committed by them. Cops frame people all the time. Or lock people up without any kind of faked evidence even. They've recently executed people who were essentially known to be innocent.
