The Headline As Always, In The Black Local Papers

Another killing – a senseless act of barbarism, but looking a little closer, it reads, that two rival music groups in a school – one group, literally attacks and stabs another kid to death

What’s the sic psychology that allows one human to murder another

The truth is, unfortunately, it’s actually very simple

It goes like this, “us and them”

Never in the history of humanity, has a murder taken place, without a dissociation

In other words, if there is “us” – if we are all similar, than I won’t hurt you, for I am hurting myself

Behind all the wars, be it nations, be it “holy” wars, be it antisemitism, be it stupid music group rivalry, be it different gangs, even within estranged husbands, it always boils down to the mind, instead of seeing “us,” sees “us and them,” or “me against everyone.”

So what’s the practical lesson?

A story tells it best

Mayor Dinkins was the shameful black mayor who allowed riots, which resulted in the murder and death of two Jews in Crown Heights, led by the most reverend Al Sharpton.

The police were told not to get involved, until it seems higher powers over the mayor instructed them to and it ended within the hour – that Sunday, as usual, the Rebbe gave out dollars – and the mayor came by to pray for peace between “our two communities” – the Rebbe corrected him “It’s not two communities, it’s one” – to the Rebbe, there was no “us and them” there only was, and as there only is to God, “us.”
