Is part of the narrative of the "Christian Identity" movement that a race war is a precursor to the apocalypse? Because I would look to that in this country where the origins of violent demonstrations seem anomalistic.

Didn't get their way last night.
So who cares if it is a prerequisite. Be a soldier for truth - not a puppet of propaganda.

I didn't do it - I'm just a rich black woman trying to make it on the mean streets of Basking Ridge NJ.

(31,879 posts)I'm not talking about you! I'm talking about the bad white people. You aren't a bigot or prejudiced - but you KNOW there are white people that will smile in my face then turn around and snigger and snicker and say, "String that uppity n*gger up from a tree first chance you get."
I'm talking about those ones.
Them. Over there.
I'm not talking about you. They've been at war with black people since 1964. They hate our guts and you know it.
And I'll glad take a hide for stating the obvious - THOSE people exist in America. And some of them don't wear hoods.

Here words - for review. . . and I think as a Representative who won fair and square - she has a right to tell you and me what is going on in St. Louis.
Missouri Democratic state senator Maria Chappelle-Nadal said the ongoing violence following the Ferguson grand jury decision not to indict Officer Darren Wilson is St. Louis race war.
The state senator spoke with MSNBCs Lawrence ODonnell on Monday night, her voice thick with emotion as bricks battered cop cars and broke shop windows and tear gas canisters arced across intersections in St. Louis, Missouri.
Chappelle-Nadal decried the systematic racism that we have in our state government and our state party, worrying that the damage may be past the point of recovery.
I have to tell you, this is St. Louis race war, she continued. We didnt have a race war like other cities throughout the country. This is our race war.

There are many for whom "The Enlightenment" was the work of the devil.

Then - the Southern Strategy kicked in - and they have been playing this weird three dimensional chess for about 38 years now.
Sick bastards. Seriously sick sick bastards.

From 1st Timothy 3
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
