You are a wee bit on the daft side lad, I have to dumb it down for you.
A black person walking around in my neighborhood doesn’t attract attention, a black guy in a hoodie hiding his face or a few of them will attract attention, see the difference?
Same thing with anybody walking around hiding their faces, it will attract attention, I have a couple of black friends that visits and they are not hassled one bit, mind you I have fantastic neighbors and most of them knows me , my family and friends
I have a feeling since you’re on the daft side that it went over your head lad.
To be fair, the GENERALIZATION TT gave is pretty accurate.
You highlight the exceptions. It’s my opinion that the black demographic as a whole needs to change a lot of the statistical truths about the black population overall. Those people you highlight show that not all blacks are destined for the statistical problems that plague much of the rest of the black community, and they should be elevated by black leaders as examples – leaders such as politicians, religious leaders, even entertainers and sports personalities – rather than the common focus on hurdles and historical shackles and handouts. They’re rarely interested in hearing it from whites, because what do whites know about their lives, after all.
I kind of cringed as I read the wording TT chose to make the point, but let’s not miss the larger message that was shaded by his descriptions.
And to tie back to the legislation that precipitated this thread, people should not be penalized for calling in on someone suspicious simply because it turns out the person has special standing due to the law.
Suspicion should be color-blind. Fear for one’s safety should be color-blind. Self-defense should be color-blind.
actually no it’s not, what he doesn’t factor is location , location and location and he using his racial bias and racism to illustrate his fucked up point
he present the usual fallacies there, I’m not sure if he is good at math and Me being a numbers guy and a guy that looks at the evidence presented, so let’s break it down .
13% of the population in America is black, this is fact.
The highest ethnicity/race in Prison are blacks, this is fact.
2.2 million Plus are a guest of the government not including juveniles or those in mental facilities which is fact.
40% of the prison population is black according to the U.S bureau of Justice Stats, accepted fact.
During the 2012 election, 64% of blacks voted, which means the majority of them are not felons, they may not be bright but they are not felons, because felons are not allowed to vote.
So minus the felons add in illiterates in Mississippi and places like that, gang members etc., the real number is about 5% of the black population is the problem and commits the crime and I love to see someone measure their IQ and compare it to law abiding blacks.
again goes back to location, no one is disputing this fact if youre close to an inner city, I know I wouldn’t be walking around in an inner city or questionable neighborhood
but lets take hillcrest NY, lots of black folks like there a nice middle class area, I know Ive walked around there and wasn’t hassled not once, I couldn’t say that If I visited Ferguson or compton, I wouldn’t walk around there without any of my black friends
TT’s statement here parallels the rest of your reply to me.
I haven’t been around long enough to know individuals’ histories, so you might be right about a lot of what you’re saying about TT. But overall, many socials – and more than just the ones he listed – are way disproportionately found in the black demographic, in general. (And that was really all I was commenting on.)
I’d rather we stop calling people “Persons of color”. It’s a bullshit term designed to divide us up. There is NO difference between me and my brother in law, even though our skin color is different. I’m sick and tired of the racist tactics to divide us up and get us arguing.
I missed the part where location was introduced into the discussion. Certainly the legislation that this thread was started about doesn’t say anything about location.
which is why I gave you some numbers Guvnah
For that idiot to say that all blacks are like that shows his ignorance, sure there are a lot in the inner cities, no denying that, but those inner cities are also run by democrats too.
Coincidence?
Everything Democrats and leftist touch, turns to shit, look at the hispanic communities run by democrats , look at the cities run by democrats, San Fran is a shit hole, Baltimore is a shit hole , even their mayor is on the run apparently .
Well that isn’t true. Hispanics make up about 40% of the prison population and over 60% of immigrants end up on welfare within five years of arriving and when you get to those who have been in the country ten years or more that portion raises to 70%.
With about 1.5 million immigrants arriving in the US each year they far exceed the percentage of native born blacks on welfare easily.
You shouldn’t denigrate Mississippi…or any other state with such bullshit generalizations. The bell curve applies to populations in every state…and to all qualities of character, education, behavior and morals.
Then they shouldn’t be over-represented among those who commit crimes…
The incarceration rate isn’t evidence of racism. At least with black defendants it’s risky to empanel a jury to stand in judgment over them in a serious matter that doesn’t include black jurors … and it only takes 1 to prevent conviction. No, what the incarceration rates are proof of is that black jurors are sick of the black criminal’s crap, as they know full well that the overwhelming number of victims will have been blacks.
That’s the apparent (at least to me) difference between proverbial Leftwing onlookers outside the courthouse ranting vapidly about social justice and a black juror actually responsible for rendering a judgment … the black juror seems happy to see the criminal, his victims, and convict his useless ass.
