What about the 2,000 Nigerians killed around the same time as the Charlie Hebdo attacks?
Why is it that people only show worldwide support when violence only happens close to them? People use e same excuses:
But as soon as it happens in your backyards, then people wrong their hands and expect everyone to feel sympathetic.
Also, why aren't we doing more to stop far right terrorists in the U.S.? The FBI caught five white supremacists planning to blow up churches and kill blacks. That was hardly a blip on the medias radar. No one said anything about that really.
I'm actually more concerned about far right racist militants than I am of ISIS, tbh. You have people in the U.S. still proof of the confederacy and what they stood for. Fighting to keep their flags on state buildings, to put their symbol on license plates (Georgia).
What about these asshole New Black Panthers, BGF, and black Israelites that want to kill whites?
Imagine if some asshole were to start walking around with ISIS t-shirts, or start putting ISIS stickers on their cars in the U.S. People would lose their minds.
Everyone needs to stop cherry picking what extremists they want to be selectively angry about, and start calling them all out on their bullshit and quit tolerating it from everyone, period.
This is more than a race issue, it's an asshole issue. If competent people would collectively speak out against the extremist assholes and their ideologies, than they would go away.
