Celebrity Bias: Samuel L. Jackson 'really wanted' San Bernardino terrorists to be white :: 12/28/2015
Hollywood star Samuel L. Jackson admits he is so obsessed with race that he wished the San Bernardino massacre was committed by white people.
Jackson, who currently stars in Quentin Tarantino’s “The Hateful Eight,” told the Hollywood Reporter he was in Hawaii when the Dec. 2 terror attack in California unfolded. His immediate response was to hope a white man was to blame.
“When that thing happened in France, we were sitting there going, ‘Oh, my God, these terrorists!’ And I can’t even tell you how much that day the thing that happened in San Bernardino – I was in Hawaii – how much I really wanted that to just be another, you know, crazy white dude, and not really some Muslims, because it’s like: ‘Oh, sh-t. It’s here. And it’s here in another kind of way,’” Jackson said Sunday.

“Now, OK, it happened on an Army base and it happened somewhere else. But now? It’s like they have a legitimate reason now to look at your Muslim neighbor, friend, whatever in another way. And they become the new young black men.”
White people were victims during the San Bernardino massacre, but the individuals pulling triggers that day were Muslim radicals Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, and his wife Tashfeen Malik, 27. Malik had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group on one of her social media accounts. The pair killed 14 people and wounded 21.
Jackson’s other mention of terrorism on American soil was the Nov. 5, 2009, attack at the U.S. Army’s Fort Hood base in Killeen, Texas, that killed 13 and wounded 32. The Obama administration initially referred to the rampage by former Army Major Nidal Hasan as “workplace violence.”
Hasan, 45, was found guilty on on 13 charges of premeditated murder and 32 of attempted murder Aug. 23, 2013.

Jackson, perhaps best known for his roles in “Pulp Fiction” and some of the “Star Wars” movies, did not end the interview before mentioning Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump.
“There’s absolutely nothing I can do,” Jackson said on influencing his occasional golf partner. “There are some other people that aren’t as open about what he’s saying that are running also, you know, that are just as crazy, that have just as much ill will toward the common man – and not just the common black man. People who don’t have a certain amount of money don’t mean anything to them.”
The actor then said he would vote for Hillary Clinton for president because Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, “can’t win.”
“I gotta cast my vote for a person that can keep those other people from winning, OK? Not to mention, you know, Hillary kinda knows the job, she can hit the ground running. She didn’t have a huge learning-curve like Barack [Obama] had or some other people had,” said Jackson.
