[white folks] 'Spitting On Their Own Minds': Terrified by Black Teenager Genocidal White Man Shoots Him To Death
/What Next? asked Buddha after a man spit in his face. Buddha's people wanted to kill him but Buddha stopped them. "Buddha said, You keep silent. He has not offended me, but you are offending me. He is new, a stranger, and he may have heard something about me from somebody, has formed some idea, a notion of me. He has not spat on me, he has spat on his notion, his idea of me, because he does not know me at all so how can he spit on me? He must have heard from people something about me – that this man is an atheist, a dangerous man who is throwing people off their track, a revolutionary, a corrupter – he must have heard something about me, he has formed a notion, an idea; he has spat on his own idea.
If you think on it deeply, Buddha said, he has spat on his own mind." [MORE]
William Pulliam had never met James Means before - yet he was fearful of him. According to Pulliam after their brief meeting he shot the 15 yr old to death. What the fuck was going on in this white man's mind?
Amos Wilson provides a possible explanation, "the perpetual domination of African Americans by White Americans psychically requires the White American criminalization of the African male, i.e., the White American perception of the African male as inherently criminal. In the context of White American domination there is no innocent Black male, just Black male criminals who have not yet been detected, apprehended or convicted. Their mere presence inspires in White Americans, fears of being assaulted, raped, robbed, or some other indefinable dread of being criminally victimized...
In the dominant White American consciousness the African male is existentially guilty, (i.e., he is guilty by his mere existence) for merely having the audacity of being alive. There is a pervasive feeling among many White Americans that their world would be much more secure if all young Black males were imprisoned, solitarily confined to their ghettos, or kept under constant surveillance. It is no quirky coincidence that such perceptions, feelings and attitudes toward African American males occur most prevalently within the context of White American dominance. Ultimately, criminality of the Black male regardless of its nature, truth or reality, resides in any act or attitude on the part of Black males which appears to White Americans to defy White American authority, control or dominance."

Such an unconscious person who eyes are filled with so many stupid thoughts is dangerous - especially if that individual has the power to create or make his projections a reality for others.
From [HERE] and [HERE] A 62-year-old white man is facing murder charges in the shooting death of a Black teen boy in an alleged confrontation on the street.
William Pulliam confessed to shooting James Means, 15, with a .380 caliber revolver in the capital city of Charleston on Monday, saying he felt threatened by the boy, according to a criminal complaint filed in Kanawha County Magistrate Court. "Mr. Pulliam expressed no remorse," the complaint, written by a Charleston police detective, said.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Steve Ruby said federal authorities have been asked to determine if the shooting can be prosecuted as a hate crime. Pulliam is white, and Means was black.
"The way I look at it, that's another piece of trash off the street," the police detective quoted Pulliam as saying.
"That review is in its early stages, and the fact that a review is being conducted should not be taken as any indication of what the review's outcome will be," Ruby said.
Pulliam told investigators he ate dinner then went to a friend's house after the shooting, according to the complaint.
The attack unfolded around 8:46 p.m. ET Monday, according to the complaint. Two friends who were with Means said they got into an argument with Pulliam after the older man allegedly bumped into Means in front of a Dollar General store. Pulliam went into the store, they said, and after he re-emerged, walked past them on the street.
The boys, standing in front of a house, argued with Pulliam again, the friends told investigators. One of the friends said Means then crossed the street to confront Pulliam. Pulliam then shot Means twice, the friend said.
Means was pronounced dead at CMAC General Hospital, the complaint said.
Pulliam remains jailed without bond because he has yet to appear before a judge, a jail officer said.
A local ABC station interviewed Pulliam behind bars, and quoted him as saying Means and his friends had threatened him with a gun before he entered the Dollar General store. On the way back, Pulliam told the station, he walked on the other side of the street. He said he did not know why the boys confronted him.
Pulliam denied calling Means "trash" to police, the station reported. And Pulliam told the station that that race had nothing to do with his decision to shoot.
"It doesn't make any difference if he's black," Pulliam said. "My God, everybody I live around over there is black. I get along with all of them, ask them."
Means' relatives, friends and Capital High School classmates gathered at the shooting scene Wednesday to remember him, local NBC affiliate WSAZ reported.
"This was unexpected because he was a really good person," a friend, Haley Braxton, told the station. "He wasn't a fighter. He didn't mess with anybody. He always made everybody so happy."
