That is incorrect. When the Democrats abuse their power to persecute people who disagree with them, that's a witch hunt.

They understand it when it's someone getting pulled over for a broken taillight but it's actually because they're black in a certain neighborhood; yet they can't understand it when it is using every means of institutional harassment possible against a president or other political enemy.

For them, power/position/privilege is the ticket to greenlighting the witch-hunting impulse. As soon as they can identify you as being part of a privileged category, no holds are barred. The only way you can escape their furor is to join them in the witch-hunt against privilege.

And denying that it's witch-hunting is part of the power-trip.

The funny thing about that song is the lyrics say, "SOME of those who work forces are also those who burn crosses."

Yet many people are currently lumping all police together as bad, which is just stereotyping/generalizing, the same collectivist mentality as racism, in other words.

@livinglava,
Democrats are smart enough to disseminate between good cops and bad cops but republicans can't seem to disseminate between bad presidents.

Comment:
THAT is the problem that also eludes you.

Just think about it, you defend a president who put young children in cages.

Let that sink in to your thick brain for once...

"Rage" does not aptly describe it.

I have never defended Obama. I do not if Ll did. He put the kids in cages.

@coldjoint,
I defend Mr. Obama situationally. For example, I like the way he helped take out Kadaffy without getting a lot of US troops killed.

But I do disagree with him on many other of his policies.

Yes, I'm very sure you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about, and I'm very sure you've actually never heard the song, or Rage Against the Machine before. If you had, you'd know you're placing the emphasis on the wrong word.

It actual goes, "Some of those who work FORCES, are also those who burn crosses." While your interpretation seems to pacify you, it doesn't me.

The song is called "Killing In The Name" and if you WERE a fan (which I know without a shadow of a doubt, you're not) you wouldn't have made such a mistake.

Feel free to look it up.

"They use FORCE, to make you do, what the Deciders. have decided you must do."

@neptuneblue,
I've never listened to Rage Against the Machine. When thrash metal faded, I just sort of stopped listening to music.

I have since listened to technical death metal, and I wish that I had transitioned to that when thrash metal faded. Death's "Symbolic" is exquisite.

I'll have to give them a listen one of these days to see what I missed.

@neptuneblue,
Also funny that (and I'm replying to you because I've blocked this babbling nonentity) how upset the police are about being profiled just because of the colour of their uniforms - I wonder if it will build their empathy.

Your use of name-calling is a crutch to compensate for your inability to make an intelligent argument.

@oralloy,
You are obliquely quiet on answering.

All I'm saying is, there's a distinct oppression for a side of the population that isn't white, rich and educated. If you should happen to fall beneath that line, the "game" is on. And having been there, as a poor, white, young white girl who had massive problems, the police were no "friends."

In fact, they were my enemy.

They kept putting me back into a situation they KNEW was dangerous, hurtful, immoral and illegal.

And then came the rage.





Now just think if I were black.
What would YOU do?
