The media is trying to portray it as a stand-off between Black and White, but I think it's more of a class thing: people that think their position in the society is fair vs. those who are unhappy with it. I would say, there are 4 groups involved: 1. Hard-working Blacks. Against gangs. Against violence. Pro police. Pro civilization. Don't really hate Whites. 2. Short-sighted Blacks. Pro gangs. Against education. Don't have a high-paying job. Plenty of free time. Often substance abuse. Unhappy with their lives. Feel unfairly disadvantaged over Whites. 3. Hard-working Whites. Pretty much, the same as hard-working Blacks. Reasonable people are reasonable regardless of their race. 4. Short-sighted Whites. Unhappy with their lives. Didn't put much effort in education, mastering hard skills, etc. Do have a better starting point than the short-sighted Blacks due to their parents' efforts. Feel unfairly advantaged over group #2 and jealous towards group #3. The thing is, groups #1 and #3 are busy with their work, while groups #2 and #4 are extremely vocal. So the click-driven media makes it look like there's a problem between the Black and Whites. While, in reality, groups #1 and #3 (a.k.a. silent majority) are happily working together, while groups #2 and #4 are stirring up the pot.
