So perhaps I'm stupid but I see some parallels between President Obama's rantings against guns and resulting ramp up of gun buying and the barrage of attacks on "whiteness" and an increase in white extremism. Please don't accuse me of conflating the two - I'm not. I'm simply observing that attempts to suppress something that shouldn't be suppressed can have the opposite effect. The conspiracy theory part of me believes that it is being on done on purpose. The idea is to get both sides mad at each other in a National passive-aggressive movement.

Continuous attempts have been made to convince the black community that the cops are out to get them. A friend of mine with biracial children has bought into the concept even though she is well educated. Critical Race Theory (CRT) and the resulting seminars like the one that was leaked from Coke are bound to bring out the latent extremist in some and drive them to start finding kindred spirits. Tell enough white people that they are hated and some of them are going to try to strike back. I've looked at the CRT materials. There is no middle ground. I feel very fortunate to no longer be in the corporate world where attending a meeting where this trash is presented could be mandatory. I'm not sure that I would have tolerated it in my youth and I sure wouldn't now.

The Democrats are famous for unintended consequences. I'm reminded of the main character in the Stephen King book "Firestarter". She ran out of places to quench her "gift" when it got out.
