How do white people feel about race crimes escalating after Obama won?

I have heard from honest white people about their personal feelings about a black president. Now I want to know what they think about the recent spur in race crimes against blacks.

    Can you please provide some links to news stories about this? I haven't heard about it. Do you have any specific cases?

    You know black people commit hate crimes all the time against whites? But they never get charged with hate crimes.

    Go ahead and take a look at some of the links below.

    I don't remember Jessie Jackson or Al Sharpten having any protests about these crimes. My wife is a teacher at an inner city school. The black kids have an attitude that they don't have to obey the rules. If any teacher (especially if they are white) try to discipline black kids they or their parents scream racism. One day my wife pulled a black kid aside because he was running in the hall. The young boy grabbed himself around the neck and screamed and said that my wife had chocked him. Luckily there were witnesses who saw what really happened. If there were no witnesses I'm sure this would have been a HUGE news story and Jessie Jackson would soon have been there. Of coarse the black kid wasn't disciplined for making false accusations against my wife. Just telling you the way it is in the big city.

    By the way, I don't like Obama because he is way to liberal for my taste and I don't think he has the experience to be president.

    I don't care what race he is. I didn't really like McCain either and he's white.

    Update: Just saw a story on my local news. A white lady was viciously attacked in the parking lot of a grocery store. She resisted as a guy tried to take her purse. She was beaten Unconscious. Survailence cameras capture images of her attacker. He was black. I'm sure Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton will be here soon to protest.

    Another Update from my local news: Gunman shot up a smoke shop killing one person and injuring several others. They police wouldn't release a discription which tells my the shooters were not white. Last week a white guy shot at some cars on the freeway and the first thing the news said was the suspect was a white man. For some reason if the suspect isn't white they won't give the discription.

    i don't sense to any extent further inferior than the device has already made me sense, and that i desire that Obama does a extra advantageous pastime of uniting the rustic than previous presidents have. additionally, if human beings wanna shout approximately race, undergo in ideas that Obama is 0.5 Caucasian.

    I have not read anything about an increase in race crimes. There have been an increase in murders but these were white on white.

    i haven't heard anything. I'm sure racist (White and Black) will never change

    edit

    by the way, the majority of voters happens to be white, and Obama won by a record breaking win,

    what that means to me, is racist are now a minority (blacks and whites)

    and it's about time too
