There is no race war. There is nothing even remotely resembling a race war taking place. The entire premise of the OP should be dismissed.
I disagree. It's not a war in the sense of traditional warfare, it's a war in the sense that anger is bubbling under the surface and is coming out.
A lot of it is to do with poverty and govts that are controlled by big business which has no interest spending money on sorting society out.
However black people, due to historical reasons, are basically at the butt end of all of this because more of them are in poverty per capita than white people.
