Nonetheless, I do feel that this thread has enough animosity spewing in various directions to be exact in citing this kind of evidence. Otherwise, why mention it at all?
Hmm, we differ a bit there. See my original point was a simple one. "All ahve sinned". Now while most cede this they continue to challenge it at every opportunity.
I happen to think that focusing on hate crimes is a way to generate more hate. In a thread about Jewish suffering I did not want to make an appeal to nausea.
It's a common tactic, post pictures of Arabs holding guts to try to portray them as savages, focus on the barbarism of the South African black (raping children to cure diseases) to validate the discrimination against them and so on and so forth.
My point was that it existed, sice au persisted I have cited but would rather not have. We should all know damn well that all races have had their violent bigots. There is no need to cite this, but I was asked to. I am trying to avoid the gory details because I find them sensationalistic in nature.
Unless you contend that no Jewish Hate groups exist and that they have never commited a hate crime I see no need to cite gory details for a simple claim that "all have sinned".
