And why are *you* classifying people by color? You're just as bad as them.

Please stop your liberal whining and STFU.

Quite right.

Racial profiling exists b/c there are cultural tendencies... If you don't think cops are justified in being more cautious/aggressive with groups of young blacks (and often mexicans) then you need to get out and experience the world more.

And you need to stop humping your mother

Do you have anything to contribute, or are you just going to blow steam out your ass?

I'd love to know your kind's definition of liberalism one day - sometimes I think you just use it to mean "stuff I don't agree with".

No, it's Don Imus. I thought we established that.

I thought it was Bush.😕

Hip hop and such was blatantly stolen from the US in the 80s, and quickly became popular among minorities, so I think it is actually quite similar.

You know so little about this subject that you don't even realize it.

Go on then, enlighten me...

Have you lived in the UK? Why do you think you are more qualified to make the comparison than me?

That's not the point. They aren't relating our culture to yours, you're relating your culture to ours. So unless you have fully experienced black culture in America, you can't make the comparison. They are simply commenting on your comparisons.

There should be a 'I do not care if they were black' option, and therein lies the problem - you think of black people as fundamentally different from yourself and therefore feel it necessary to categorize them.

If indeed it was some kind of race riot (this actually still happens in the states?) then the people involved have the same problem as you. They see themselves as different. If everybody could see past skin color without consciously thinking about it, then it would be impossible for one racial group to oppress another, because racial groups would for all intents and purposes no longer exist.

I remember reading about a Milk Store robbery here in Toronto not long ago, the article description of the robber as: 5' 8", x-lbs, wearing a red jacket, blue jeans a tattoo on arm but refuse to give race of suspect.

And quite right too.

Blacks are not "fundamentally different." However, popular black culture in the US is self destructive and self deprecating.

And you must be high if you think descriptions of criminal suspects should not include what race they are.

QFT.
Knowing a suspect is 5'8", 200 lbs only goes so far, but knowing he's black, white, hispanic, or asian narrows the field down quite a bit...AND, if he has red hair, is bald, wears a Mohawk, etc, are all valid descriptors to make catching a criminal a bit easier.

Sorry, but the crowd was a mix of Mongolians and Uzbekistanis.

You whined because one side stated that behavior moves along racial lines, then you whined when someone else said the same thing about another race.

You're just a kid who likes whining. Why don't you stick to annoying your classmates and spare us?

So then there's a kernel of truth to the stereotype of ATOT posters being virginal, rural 14 y/o males whose best chance within a decade lies with a barnyard animal? :laugh:

Bah I guess I walked into that one (quadripedally, no less)

 

[alkemyst]

It's not uncommon to hear a group of minority people say "If it was a white man shooting a minority man, they would not even have arrested them". (minority in these cases is mostly black or hispanic)

As if in today's world 'whitey' is free to go around killing black people.

Also white/black/hispanic/etc low middle class to poor combined have the desire to be 'gangstas' and have a better than you attitude. Sorry to inform them, even with their gats...making $6.50/hr at a subway, detail shop, with no education, no dedication to a public service, etc and at the same time collecting government aid...makes them the sort of stuff most of us take time to scrap off our shoes when we step in it. Even some upper class idiots by into this...more often than not a simple bitch slap shuts them up as they have too much to lose in an arrest.

Paid much attention to what the NY and LA PDs have been up to the past decade and a half or so?

 

[GoingUp]

Id guess Latino, since its more in the south and the suspects name was Rico. Sounds more hispanic to me.

This thread only adds to the problem of our current state. Especially the way the OP phrased his title.

I'm kind of disappointed in some of the members here. The statistics and general concepts of cultures may be true, but the phrasing and just shear disrespect for others is saddening.

Odd, when most black people I know love that channel.

There are two sides to racism, there's the ugly side that we tend to focus more on, and there's the side that is embraced by most races. That type of cultural divide that makes members of that race feel unique and special, the type that inspires a sort of pride.

If you think about a large society that is completely without a recognized cultural divide, it's actually quite depressing. Like it or not, you can't have that sort of ambiguity and obliviousness to racism without losing something very important to the individual.

The thread was titled in a way to mimic the thoughts of someone who feels that there's a good chance that a group of people are involved with the incident based on related news articles released by the media. You're looking at it with a close-minded perspective.

An art teacher, who is black, I once had showed us a picture that he took with his ex-girlfriend. The picture was a top view of them in bed having sex. He titled the picture N*gger Lover. He told us that in his experience most people would label his girlfriend as such instead of him being labeled "White Girl" lover. In essence, he felt like that by labeling his girlfriend instead of him, those people completely denied his existence and only referred to him in third person instead of acknowledging him directly.

The title of his artwork caused a lot of debate to the point where one of the students complained to the college administration, and the teacher was suspended. The other students including myself protested the next day, and two hundred of us stormed the administration building demanding that the decision be re-considered.

My point is that the title may seem racist to you, but it is merely a way to incite some responses to get the opinions of others and to, hopefully, understand the situation some more.

 

[spacejamz]

So here's a question (I guess directed at the those who think this is a racist thread)...

What is called if you would rather your car break down in a 'whitey' neighborhood or in the heart of a low income, predominantly black nieghborhood that has a significant history of violent crime, assaults, theft, rape, etc???

If you chose the first option, does that make you a racist??

In Toronto most of the problems are not committed by blacks (in the African sense), but instead by Jamaicans. Unfortunately a lot of people just categorize them all together and don't see the real problem: Canada lets in too many people from poor nations. The result? Poor, uneducated people who grew up in crime infested areas are not likely to be very upstanding citizens (at least when compared to accepting someone from say, Sweden).

I'm going to have to disagree with you there. How come Asians and Indians, which often come here dirt poor, don't seem to fall into the thug life and cause problems?

It's a certain group of people that seems to repeatedly get stuck in that lifestyle no matter where they are.

Just using basic troubleshooting skills should tell you a lot. You have one group that is often poor but seems to succeed no matter where they go. You have another group that seems to fail no matter where they go. The excuse is different, but the result is the same.
