    African Americans males commit half of all murders in the states and are about 7-8 percent of the population. The anger problem in the states resides with minorities. That being said when whites do get angry, they typically go after the seat of power and not their own neighborhoods. And that is the real difference.

    So the difference is local violence (minorities) and global violence and world wars (whites). Ok, got it.

    It can only be measured by the end result. Anger could lead to a simple discussion which I'd consider a level 1 . All the way up to violence being a level 10.

    So what metric do you use to judge a level of anger? You’re not answering my question. If you want to judge how angry a group is then what metric do you use?
    Protests?
    Violence?
    Drug use?
    What is it?

    Anyone, of any color or ethnicity, can get the best 'revenge' of all by majoring in a subject that promises a rewarding career with excellent compensation so that you can make LOTS of money, plan for a superb, early retirement, and actually ENJOY life while you accomplish it! Being "angry" doesn't fix anything, and it's also very likely that whatever it is that needs to be 'fixed' isn't really even worth it in the first place! 8)

    THINK about what you're doing and how you use your time! Let other people waste their lives and get 'wrapped around the axle' of life, since they obviously have nothing better to do.... Vote with your WALLET, don't be a fool, concentrate on the 'long-haul', and, what's good for YOU and your loved ones. Let everything else find a place in a descending order of your own priorities.... And never forget that your own personal success is the very best 'revenge' of all! :party: .

    No most wars are in fact not started by “whites” historically speaking it’s been middle eastern, African, and asian countries.

    Gonna look good on the students' resumes when the try to get jobs to pay off their student loans. The want ads are brimming with openings for "angry white male" grads.

    Yeah, it's a threat to your life if you're anywhere near that. That's why we have the 2A, people who have no impulse control and just want to prey on others.

    Since you are on the subject of deflecting, you fail to realize 1/6 happened before Biden took office. The investigation started that day.

    You’re right, they don’t have nukes or F16s.

    Going back to the OP, don’t you think such a subject is highly bigoted? Why don’t the teach a more beneficial class about how after decades of being handed trillions of dollars certain people either can’t rise up and be successful or constitute the most violent and murderous demographic? That would be racist, right?

    I can imagine students deepening their student debt by taking this worthless course. This is racial grooming.

    No, not at all. Just a threat to life. The person that was being worked on by paramedics while their ambulance was being twerked on knows all too well how they don’t care about life.

    The picture literally shows a mob of black people stopping democracy.....unless you believe the majority of voters or citizens would approve of the services they pay and vote for be disrupted my mobs of black people. To think any and every attack on democracy takes place on a global, or even national scale is a simple mans point of view... in my humble opinion.

    Then you must be 50% angry then because 50% of ALL Caucasians are not angry while living here or abroad.

    YOu want to be angry because you feel that makes you feel better, like going postal sometime in the near future for you.

    I don't care when it happened. It was not an insurrection. Claiming it is and the absurd Congressional 1/6 hearing are political theatre intended to deflect away from Biden's poor performance. The problem for libs is no one cares abour 1/6 other than libs.

    The people that take classes about "angry white males" can go to graduate school taking more of these sorts of classes, and then teach, thus turning the liberal education system into a self licking ice cream cone.

    What irony? Does calling out racism make one angry or what are you getting at?

    What metric is used to define white anger? Because if that metric is higher by another demographic it clearly isn’t a discussion on anger but rather race.
