Pablo, no mexicans in prison? You're not bias are you?

The US government doesn't classify Hispanic as a race, so they'll be in the white or black categories.

That is absurdly false. Around here, hispanics are the majority. Hell if I break my leg, I have to drive to Hillsboro or Forest Grove because the medical clinic right down the fvcking street will hang up on you or kick you out if you're not mexican. However, if a mexican needs medical attention, they just walk in and get it. Don't have to show ID, don't have to show that you PAY TAXES, don't have to show that you're a LEGAL CITIZEN. :|

And they're funded by the gub'ment! :|

Well, it's the truth. Hispanic is not included because the US Census Bureau considers Hispanic to mean a person of Latin American descent living in the US who may be of any race or ethnic group.

That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Hispanics are hispanics. Latin Americans are Latin Americans. Why would they be considered anything other than hispanics/Latin Americans?

OP I understand your what your saying and it is pointless to argue this around these parts. As half of these people believe that blacks dont have the mental capacity as a white person and countless other threads that show there ignorance I find it pointless to argue with them. They have pent up anger against us and they find the internet as a place for release. These threads always show peoples true colors.

BTW, hi xionide

 

[phantom309]

Let's see. This is everything I've personally experienced as a crime victim:

Home invasion robbery - perp was black male
Car stolen - perps were black males according to witnesses
Workplace held up by robbing crew - perps were black males
Apt burglarized - perp was black male according to witnesses
Friend mugged and nearly kicked to death - perps were black males
Friend carjacked and nearly killed in police standoff - perp was black male

You are damn right to be angry that black people are portrayed as criminals. But you're not angry at the right people.

Like a breath of fresh air

Thank you xionide

 

Modern civil rights are under 50 years old.

Give it time.

 

[RabidMongoose]

Probably because of the large amount of criminals that happen to be black men when compared against the general black population.

Did you seriously not already know the reason why some people believe this?

Please don't count me as one of those folks, my numbered points are from a black civic leader during an interview on NPR, I just happen to agree with her. Not one of them refers to anyone's alleged intellectual capacity or lack thereof. Many black civic leaders have long recognized the problems, but they & the media have not publicized the viewpoints, J. Jackson would say "Lets talk black" & everything said was off the record.

1.) Decreasing overt/passive acceptance of violence
2.) Decreasing overt/passive acceptance of out of wedlock births
3.) Putting an emphasis on staying in school
4.) Decreasing overt/passive acceptance of drug use/sales/addiction

BTW, I have a pic of me shaking hands with Rev. Jackson, need to dig it up & scan it...

 

[FuZoR]

i find it hard to believe that you dont know why black men always portrayed as crimminals...
(im from the east)

*edit* oh yeah i worked in a retail store where my manager (black) and co-manager(black) always TOLD us to KEEP an eye on gangsta looking BLACK PEOPLE... now will you be pissed at them too?

I just so happens that its not the only nore the biggest problem the black community faces today.

How much time do you need? Perhaps I'm a bit deficient in my black history, but it seems to me that the black family unit was functioning fairly well 30-40 years ago. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Right it was before the introduction of CRACK COCAINE. I also know that this drug wasnt dreamed up by some black guy in a closet dreaming of how to get rich.

Drug/alcohol abuse isn't the exclusive domain of the black community. I would also request that you back up this wild supposition that crack cocaine was the invention of some governmet agency/money hungry white man in order to profit at the expense of blacks. I would go so far as to claim that it was invented by some druggie looking to get a better high, rather than your conspiracy theories.

But I don't see what you statement has to do with the black family unit. I was trying to imply that the black family unit was alive and well 30-40 years ago, and is still so in many places today. That you belittle it with the cop-out that "we were enslaved for so long" is assimine.

IMHO.

Blacks must address number of out-of-wedlock births

When addressing why African-Americans suffer by comparison with whites based on wealth, education, health, jobs, prison incarceration rates, etc., it's customary to trot out the usual suspects -- institutional racism, the legacy of slavery, poverty and drug-plagued urban environments.

All of those factors are suspects for good reason. In varying degrees, they remain barriers for many, despite the notion among some that we have arrived at a color-blind society.

But it's also time to acknowledge that many of the battles African-Americans wage for quality education, economic opportunity and equality in the criminal justice system are being undermined by the high out-of-wedlock birth rate.

According to to the National Center for Health Statistics, unmarried women accounted for 68 percent of black births in 2002 compared to 43.4 percent for Hispanics and 22.9 percent for whites. In 1965, the out-of-wedlock birth rate for blacks stood at 25 percent.

Root cause analysis time, folks...

Also, something I never considered before, but during the years slavery was legal/practiced, black family units did not exist. Blacks were often bred with no reguard for family. But it's time the black community dealt with this crap.

So true but it will take time because we were enslaved for so long that many do not know how to manage a family.

BULLSH!T. THIS is what is keeping your people down. If you keep blaming all your community's ills on slavery and racism, you will NEVER cure the problems.

The facts are, black families stayed together at an extremely high rate before the 1960s. Throughout Jim Crow and even directly after slavery ended, the vast majority of black families stayed together. Out of wedlock births were as rare as they were for whites at the time.

The disintegration of black families is a NEW thing, and therefore cannot, and is not tied to any "slavery."

UMM HOW ABOUT THE Tuskegee EXPERIMENT! Our GOV gave blacks STD's on purpose.

YOU NEED TO READ MORE!

What about it? Do you know the time period in which it occurred, or how many people it effected? It was on a decidedly much smaller scale than the crack epidemic, and happened a good while ago. If you think crack was introduced to "bring" the black man down, then you lose all vestiges of credibility. There is nothing out there to prove this, nor nothing to prove that blacks are more susceptible to drug addiction. The issue is with the passiveness of their culture when it comes to criminals, drug dealers, and thugs. They aren't rooting them out, and they aren't turning them over to the police. They wouldn't be so scared if they weren't so complacent. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. I didn't enslave you and I didn't do experiments on you, so why are you acting as if all white men are responsible for slavery?

Gave them STDs, or took blacks who already had STDs and monitored their disease instead of treating it to see the outcome?

For forty years between 1932 and 1972, the U.S. Public Health Service (PHS) conducted an experiment on 399 black men in the late stages of syphilis. These men, for the most part illiterate sharecroppers from one of the poorest counties in Alabama, were never told what disease they were suffering from or of its seriousness. Informed that they were being treated for ?bad blood,? their doctors had no intention of curing them of syphilis at all.

The data for the experiment was to be collected from autopsies of the men, and they were thus deliberately left to degenerate under the ravages of tertiary syphilis?which can include tumors, heart disease, paralysis, blindness, insanity, and death. ?As I see it,? one of the doctors involved explained, ?we have no further interest in these patients until they die.?

Was it bad? Yes. However, no one gave blacks STDs.

And no one put crack into black communities with the intention of bringing them down.

I have seen SO much BS propaganda from you in this thread. You need to take a critical look at the urban legends you hear from your so-called leaders.

Yes I do and it effected my great grandfather to be straight to the point. As far as why im so upset is im showing what is still possible to be occurring today. I dont believe that the GOV is doing this kind of stuff anymore. Lord knows I pray they arent, however what I will say is that white men "Please note I dont hate anyone cause of race" have used drugs to over power their enemies since the days of england. The british used opium to overpower the chinese. So please dont act like like drugs havent been used as a weapon before. I am by far too enlightend to be moved by your rants.

yeah if I recall Tuskegee was about with-holding treatment, not spreading infection. It was patently wrong, but it's still important to have the facts right.

:disgust:

You can say these things (about crack being used to bring the black man down) but you MUST prove them. The fact of the matter is, you cannot.

The real fact is, crack was invented by inner city drug dealers to make the selling of cocaine easier and more profitable. The fact that is was more addicting was just a side effect.

:disgust:

I see you simply aren't logical. There's no evidence that crack cocaine has anything to do with the US government, nor is it a conspiracy by White People. People are susceptible to drug abuse REGARDLESS of socio-economic status, race, or gender. That's why the rich, the poor, females, males, blacks, whites, Hispanics, etc all have people that are drug addicts. Is your argument that black people are more susceptible to drug abuse? If so, then I'm going to need some links to back that up. Perhaps a study and not some kind of other urban legend/conspiracy theory.

 

[Mill]

People need to listen to Cosby. Black people aren't any different than white people, but their culture and community hasn't realized how bad their image is because of complacency. I learned something a long time ago when I was much younger. If something was unfair and I complained about it and pouted, then it never changed and I was never any happier. If I ignored the fairness of it, and worked to change it then I always ended up in a better spot. That's what this is going to take. Falling back on the slavery argument/experiments, etc is just a crutch for some people to use. It isn't needed.

I have one other comment to make: Why is the crime rate among Native Americans lower than Black Americans?


On a given day, an estimated 1 in 25 American Indians age 18 or
older is under the jurisdiction of the criminal justice system
-- 2.4 times the per capita rate of whites and 9.3 times the per
capita rate of Asians. But black Americans, with a per capita
rate nearly double that of American Indians, are more likely to
be under the care or custody of correctional authorities.


Number of murders
Race of victim per 100,000 persons*

American Indian 7
Black 34
White 5
Asian 5


Number of arrests for Part
violent crimes per 100,000
persons in each group


American Ind 291 294
Black 937 1,356
White 182 283
Asian 98 192


Don't even start with the Casino argument, as it holds very little water. I'm wondering why another disadvantaged group with similar socio-economic status has a much lower crime rate.

Actually, they were not necessarily in late-stage syphilus. The purpose of the experiment was to look at the life-cycle of the disease. When the study started, there wasn't really anything wrong with this: syphilus was untreatable anyway. The study, in theory, could have lead to better understanding of the disease, and even treatments.

However, long before the ast patients died, the cure was found, and many of the people in the study could have been saved years of suffering. "In the interests of science" and no doubt bolstered by the low social status of the subjects, it was decided to let the study run its course. This was totally indefensible (eventually, the remaining survivors were treated, when the cover on the study was blown).
