Yeah, more racial bigotry

[Moonbeam]

And in my defense my cousin is totally hot.

You dirty white animal.

 

[Moonbeam]

White folk are never exposed day after day to racial sterotyping?

Really?

Looks like you just engaged in racial sterotyping of white folk yourself.

(And I see white folk living in the South subjected to racial sterotyping here on a daily basis.)

Sorry it took so long to reply but I've had to do several loads of snot and tear filled hankies, the result of reading your post, and I had to go to the store for more detergent. I had no idea how bad it is for white people.

And the under no circumstances do I make an excuse for what this clown did. But at the same time he ain't the first guy to smack a woman up and he won't be the last.

You sure as hell are. I'll tell you what, if some guy beat a woman then he should be criminally prosecuted.

If there was race involved, then add that on top.

You? "Oh I bet you dont' care about that..."

Well you obviously don't care if this is racially motivated, and considering it was over her "privileged" status as a white, it's not reasonable to think otherwise.

But no, you don't apologize for him. BS.

Are you qualifying the '... under no circumstances...' with the last sentence?

Battery is both criminal and a tort. You don't need to condone that act.. it speaks for itself...

There is no justification to violate the law and the rights of a person...
The color of one's skin or their gender or some other factor may serve to mitigate or extenuate the severity/punishment of the issue...

Uh, I think the complaint is about double standards, eskimo.

Not after the black professor in Boston.

When a white person attacks a black person because of a racial incident it's awful.

When the reverse it true, it's all about white pride.


He deserves to be brought up on charges, but his race and status put him above the law and apparently many find that just.

What is justice? Who will most likely bite you, a dog that is constantly beaten on one raised with love? Both are dogs but one, if it gets loose will be shot. That is justice. The ones who savaged the dog never go to trial. We must have our pound of flesh, no? 400 years of racism and slavery and one dude snaps and the white world is about to end. If the fing N's get loose all us white people are dead. They are going to slit our throats in our sleep and never have to pay. They are going to live high on the hog on the reparations we paid them.

What is so fing hard to understand about the fact that Blacks have been through a Nazi concentration camp and as a group have suffered enormous psychological damage.

It doesn't mean they get a free ride and can break any law, but it does mean that we will see many problems arising as a result of the past effects of racism. It takes lots of time and enormous work to recover from mass discrimination and it helps not at all when poor self hating white people moan and groan over every single minor injustice they see.

Time for white people to grow a pair. They have had it real real good. Have a little humility, folks.

Lets see.
A black man and a white woman start arguing about his belief that as Whitey she's privileged. Things get heated and her privileged face gets punched. The poor downtrodden black man walks.

Lemme see. Did I post in that thread? Nope. Let me find your outrage. Oh, nothing there either. Maybe I passed because I happen to think the OP is a fucktard? Yep you got it.

Now for the record I think the racist bastard should do time. But maybe he had a few and that was just having fun, like this other piece of shit.

The problem isn't my outrage, it's your apologistic attitude.

But go on. Look the other way and make fun of those who don't like injustice regardless of the color.

Now for extra bonus points, why don't you do a search (we have it now) and find where I support racism or abuse of minorities?

Can't do it? No because I'm not a hypocritical nitwit as you seem intent on being.

He should have punched her twice for the history if his race. Her color means she has it coming to her.

A thing is right or wrong, and history does not excuse it. That's a crutch not a reason.

Shakespire wrote and to which you allude among the following.. near abouts... but, I'll use quotes in my paraphrase..
"... mercy is voluntary. Perhaps, because it mitigates the compulsions of the literal law it is true mercy? Does it drop gently like heaven's rain, a natural and gracious quality rather than a legal one?"

What requires mercy? Is Mercy attached to what is now seen to be the motive for some act? I feel that what was the reality of yesterday cannot mitigate the reality of today. We all have to 'evolve' toward some goal... both sides have to toss off the scars and rid the hands of the tools that created those scars.... Neither side can continue outside the law to enjoy the law...

I guess in a day and age where you can have a national non profit dedicated to the promotion of one race but not the other these types of crimes do not surprise me.

Mercy can't be voluntary because nobody is responsible for anything. He who sleeps is a machine and a machine has no volition. He who finds fault with another condemns himself.

The thing is right or wrong but the punishment is another aspect of the deal. Mercy is part of that.... lots of stuff go to mitigation and lots of stuff go to extenuation.... Age is a mitigation, I'd think.

 

[LunarRay]

Well... in the 'Merchant of Venice' Shakespeare tried to convey that Mercy was voluntary.

It is who is responsible! One cannot indict en bloc.
A person commits battery on another person. That is wrong, a crime and a tort. Does it matter why the battery occurred? Sure, if it goes to defense of the allegation and Sure if it goes to mitigate punishment if the allegation is found true.
Courts do the condemn stuff...
Folks who overlook stuff because of the motivation are asleep.

Hrmmm, the right wing white male culture of endless victimhood is on excellent display in this thread. Tell us again about how you're so terribly picked on and abused.

We're just sick and tired of hearing minorities complain about the same things white people have to endure, but minorities expecting special treatment or compensation for it.

My neighbor was complaining that he was pulled over and ticketed for having tinted windows. He said he thought he was being "profiled" because he was Hispanic.

OK, well that would explain why I'm as white as they come but also was ticketed around the same age for tinted windows (in a different state). What do minorities think the police do in predominantly white communities, sit in their cars all day long doing nothing until a minority drives by?

I grew up in a community that was about 92% white, surrounded by several other communities that were about 92% white. The police were very active pulling over white young males for trivial violations, especially if you were in a car with two or more white young males.

If you got lippy with them or challenged their reasoning for stopping you, you got man-handled and searched. Worse, they would remember you and pull you over for nothing the next time. Generally speaking, if you had no history with them or were very respectful, they wouldn't pull you over unless you actually committed a violation, even if it were a trivial one. But if you disrespected them, they would pull you over for absolutely nothing the next time, just to see what you might be doing or might have in your car.

If we drove to a neighboring town, we got pulled over because they did not recognize us as a local. I remember being asked once, "What are you doing so far from home?" WTF? Its not like I'm coming from Yemen or Libya, I lived eight freaking miles away!

If you are young and male, particularly if you drive a flashy or sporty car or have multiple young male occupants, you get profiled in every jurisdiction in the USA, period.

Where's the outrage? Where's my check? Where's my victim advocacy group?

Umm...what?

90% of what is being referred to as "white male victimhood" around here are not whites actually wanting compensation or crying that they were unfairly treated. They are merely bringing attention to the fact there is a double standard.

When it happens to minorities, the media goes ape-shit, checks get written, people get fired, reputations are ruined. In response, whites go, "Umm, the same thing happened to me. What the hell makes you so special?"

Big difference.

I think for racial inequities to disappear, we need to learn to "turn the other cheek." But this is a two way street. If a racial incident happens and some race is the victim be it white or black or anything else, that we need to just ignore it and move on. Let's not get all riled up because it won't fix anything.

But that goes for Jesse Jacksons and Al Sharpston's too.

Poor little oppressed child. Getting hassled by the cops is just like years of systemic abuse by police.

I think tc makes a valid point. He isn't complaining but pointing. I see no reason why a mind can't hold more than one perspective. White people face the same kinds of problems as any other race at many levels. I do not think, however, they face them in white culture as often or as dramatically as other races living in white culture. So, while you can't give any one group a free pass to violate the rights of another, you need, I think, to realize that the resentment of minorities in a majority society have a deeper foundation in reality. That can't lead to tolerance of violent reaction, but it should lead to action and compassion of understanding and willingness to redress the endemic results of past and ongoing racism, no?
