What occurred in Haiti was due to a number of factors: French revolutionary idealism and geopolitical struggle between Britain and France being a couple. Naturally a big part of it also involved a slave revolt too. But the core fundamental that made genocide possible was the demographic situation. Whites were badly outnumbered. It is that eventuality I'd like to see avoided in America. With all of the mulattos and other hybrids now being born and the general trend toward a white minority in this country who knows what reason might be used for outnumbered whites to be attacked in the future? Better they remain a safe majority. A safe majority that didn't exist in Zimbabwe, one might add. And had it existed whites would not have been kicked off their farms by blacks. Simple as that.
In referring to South Africa I wasn't thinking of anything in particular other than my general impressions. But white farmers are subjected to the kind of black on white murder rate that if it existed in reverse would surely be world news. The white population also has shrunk in the lead up to the end of white minority rule and post-Apartheid. White South Africans, seeing the writing on the wall, simply fled the new order. It's fair to say that it's not as bad as it could be nor as bad as some predicted... but it's pretty bad. And if one were to say there is poverty or whatever that would be a cop out as much in South Africa as it is in Detroit. The only point that matters here in either case is that whites are suffering as a racial minority in a way they would not be suffering if they were a racial majority. White South Africans specifically are comparatively peaceful and well off compared to blacks. Living around large numbers of feral savages makes them worse off than they'd be if they were the majority.
That said, hers is one link that comes to mind. In discussing the larger issue of African population explosion and what it means for whites and the world this South African writer also touches on the realities surrounding being a white minority in a heavily black society.

All the demographic situation was was a catalyst, some form of violence was bound to happen because of the factors you had listed before.
I think this is paranoia imo,there really isn't any oppression nearly as major as the situation was in Haiti, the worst threat to the black population from white people is racist cops, that's a pretty minor form of oppression compared to what happened in Haiti.
Had the whites there not have been so stupid as to think they could control a population that couldn't relate to them, they would not have been kicked off their farms by blacks, simple as that.
You can't really use that for evidence then, because my general impression is different from yours.
Citation?
How is it a cop out? There is quite obviously lots of poverty in Detroit and there is a clear correlation between racism, crime and poverty.
All flipping the colors does is flip the colors, it doesn't change how many people die, it just changes who dies.

Lets take the UK for example (just because that's where I live), here you can see, the majority of crime is done by white people, why? Because white people are the majority and the more people there are of a group the more crime they will commit. This is consistent with the US.
Calm it with the name-calling, lets keep this respectful. I haven't called you or people who agree with you anything and I expect you do to do the same when talking about others.
