And what “demographic” would that be?
Today’s terrorist attack is yet more proof, if proof were needed, that this whole conspiracist “Jewish people run everything” trope is harmful.

Thats not what im getting at.
However, The jewish community and thier lobbyist have more power than other reliogious groups when it comes to thier protection and how they move within this society. Proof is in the pudding.
Now this topic is maybe for another thread, as the focus is on the shooting itself.

Donald Trump out there victim blaming and saying there should be armed guards at a damn place of worship.

Then it seems further clarification is required.
I'll ask again: what "demographic" were you referring to?
And how is this:
substantially different from this:
Racial hate crimes, and anti-Muslim hate crimes, are more common than anti-Semitic hate crimes - but hate crimes of all types are on the rise:

These issues are often interrelated. Look no further than the bigoted hysteria over the migrant caravan, now alleged to include "people of Middle Eastern descent" and funded by George Soros, as proof of that.

Im not following. why you are infering my statment means they control my way of life or others outside thier communities.
They dont control everything. What i am simply saying is they have a privilege other minoroties and religious sect dont. The orthodox communities lobby hard to obtain certain protections.
That privilege is obtained by lobbyist and long money, intertwined in politics. Hopefully, in this case, they can gear that pull for change in policies that hinder placid gun laws.

This is the part that gets me the most. Triggers are pulled on unarmed people yet this guy shot 3 cops and lives to see another day. Unreal.
On top of all this the president calls for arming churches when actual law enforcement got clipped today

Thats the thing though. Once people "give up" cops can't do anything more than take them into custody.
I guarantee the cops on scene would have rather ended him right then and there.

Nah, the shooter's life was spared because he was white. Had he been non white, he would be dead. That's the reality.

To add to your point:
Different rules when you don't have influence....

You already know. Ive lived around the Hasidic community all my life, being from LES in nyc.
Thier own ambulance, own police/security, holidays we participate in, etc.
I can get deep with thier pull at city hall and in albany but again thats another topic for another thread.

The argument regarding the unique political "pull" of the Jewish community in American is ridiculous to me.
And it feeds the same talking points that motivate clowns like this shooter.

I think most would want shooters in custody. A lot of times those cowards kill themselves.

I'm tryna understand dudes tweet saying NYPD weren't deployed to black churches... Because a shooting happened in Charleston? Were they supposed to be deployed to another state? Or protect NY black churches since a shooting happened hundreds of miles a way?.. neither makes sense.

I think they meant deploying local police to predominantly black churches around the Charleston area for protection after the roof shooting happened.
Actually I apologize I read the tweet wrong

The synagogue incident wasn't in NY, but NY felt it prudent to provide security I believe was the point. I get Meth's point and don't want to add to this though.

^ Interesting. Now that makes sense. Yea it does make homeboys point about some Jews having a certain level of pull. I personally believe that. Not cus anything sinister, but because they (the practicing Jews) are predominantly united. It's literally their belief system and there's a lot of fruit that comes with that.

The political right has a real incentive to lower the antisemitism prevalent within white nationalist ideologies in public discussion: the state of Israel is one of, if not the largest lobbyist in DC (AIPAC). In Europe, particularly in France, denying the Holocaust in the public sphere can get you jailed (Jean Marie Le Pen, founder of the National Front, is serving a sentence for doing exactly that). Israel also owes its creation existence to the West, and acts as the sole enforcer of Western interests in the Middle East.
Geopolitics explain the "Jewish pull" (for lack of better term) better than unity.

If white nationalists had their way, they would target Jews, Catholics (particularly from immigrant communities), and the Irish just as much as they target African-Africans and Arabs.
But because of political necessity they have had to pretend that some of these groups are ok with them. They're not.
