Yes, the fact that blacks make up around 50% of the crimes, while only being around 13% of the population has been a problem for a long time.

Why are you comparing total numbers when the population difference between whites and blacks is pretty drastic.

I can do you one better. Why would we be comparing "population difference" and not the relative percentage of each race that commit crimes/put themselves in conflict with police. The latter would seem much more relevant.

Yes the media does sensationalize stories like that. But you're literally scapegoating only the media for this. Your not even acknowledging the lived experience.

I'm not talking about killings. I'm talking about the "random" stops. The unnecessary 911 calls on innocent black people. Unwarranted suspicion... the list goes on. The media doesn't report THAT does it?

Because they’re committing crimes disproportionately. Stop trying to be clever.

to be honest...I'm noticing alot of people are alot more...squeamish and sensitive to this topic than I even thought. because I'm feeling defensive vibes which i find...interesting.

I also enjoy breaking the forth wall, and deconstructing this forum for the users is enjoyable for me...
Fine as long as you're not ascribing motive and fabricating issues in your own mind.

That's a legitimate problem these days because I see the bullchit they teach my peers in college. It's all primer to turn them into wannabe racial justice freedom fighters in a war that they created.

I've literally had a racists' boot on my face and even I can see the systemic racism they preach about is complete bullchit.

You need to take a stats course because you don't seem to know how to interpret the data. Whites make up the majority of the population so of course the absolute numbers will be higher. The fact remains that blacks are killed at a disproportionately higher rate than whites when compared to their percentage of the overall population.

That's two eyes for an eye, I can sympathize with that.

The business owner scenario is a bit of a slippery slope but I could understand killing thieves (not necessarily shoot to kill but **** happens).

That fact doesn’t conclude police racism.

To me they aren't. The minute you stop behaving like a civilised human being you forfeit all your rights away.

No longer relating to your quoted post bruh. I wonder if the people who cry out in this thread that there's a large portion of white people in these riots; are also the same people who'll take Trump's use of the term 'thug' to heart and claim racial profiling from it.

Im going to walk on ice here and insert my opinion...

1. I think we can all agree that racism is generally a bad thing

2. People wrongly extrapolate, draw conclusions from, and understand the statistics, the numbers, the "facts" that they use

3. Everyone is on a scale on everything, including racism. However there's a difference between being explicitly and implicitly racist. It's human nature to identify, or feel most comfortable with people who look like you. For example) when walking down a dark alleyway at midnight at 2am, if you take half a second longer to judge the situation because the person has a different skin color than you, thats implicit racism. However if in that same situation, you pull a gun and tell them to fck off, thats explicit racism

I could see how people would think that.

"Thug" generally has connotations of minorities.

Same as if you said "gangbangers".

Or like how if I said "such and such is a hillbilly" I'm 100% certain an Asian person wouldn't come to mind.

I personally don't care either way but it probably could have been worded a little better.

Why call them thugs when rioters or looters would do?

Those are the most apt descriptions vs. "thugs" which could be taken the wrong way by some.

While appreciated, sensible people have been saying this for decades and it doesn't satisfy the hard left.

What we need to do is forever implicate the government and white people for being complicit in racist conspiracy.

Problem is this is being used as evidence of systemic racism and to weasel out of personal responsibility. Blacks and hipsanics murder each other at ridiculous rates and gangs are a huge problem.

No. Thugs are people who act like thugs, regardless of color or nationality.

Uptight about you insinuating racism? Maybe. Would you be uptight about if the shoe were on the other foot?

Well, since you asked him I’ll let him answer. See where the discussion goes.

Hey brah? See the post above you? This is the same guy who posted "negro" in this thread, and then pussied out and deleted his post. Just one more example of the vile hatred of some of these brahs.

As to your points: I don't believe in systemic racism. I do however believe in what economists call the Matthew Principle. Derived from: Matthew 25:29: "For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath." (KJV)

I'm all for personal responsibility. No qualifications here.

well that's because you're alittle crazy then friend.

can't have you dictating things lol
Based on your posts in this thread, I get the feeling you think you're a little brighter than you actually are just because you can put together sentences.

So let me break it down for you.

If you come into my store. A store i've put entire life into. And think you can smash the windows. Take the possessions. Ruin my livelihood. All under the veil of you telling yourself you're doing it because of injustice. Let me tell you that you're going to hospital that night.

And i'll never apologise to you for it.

Want to act like an animal you'll get treated like an animal. Black yellow or white. My 'white privilege' won't discriminate.

It's fine and healthy to be realistic about race. You have to know where you stand in the yard. But to actually hold contempt toward another race is unhealthy, but also not something I'd beat you over the head about that you're an evil racist - cause it doesn't work. It doesn't address the root cause. If you're in a dark place where hate festers you have to consider the life and message of Jesus Christ, whether you're white and hate black or black and hate white.
