No one lumps all black people together in one group. WTF??
I hope you are a smartass and not delusional

How is that delusional? It's true of many white people in this country. Why can't you stop lumping US all together and assuming we are all racists?

I never said all white people do anything
Never
Said
It
I was responding specifically to a post that said 'No one lumps all black people together"
Which of course your brainiac ass refutes by saying that it's ' true of many white people'
Thereby proving my point.

Hmmph...
This disgusting diatribe disguised as a discussion serves no true purpose and seeks no genuine understanding; it's merely an opportunistic attempt by the ignorant and antagonistic to attack and undermine and criticize and condemn an entire segment of society for the sole sake of tradition.
Yes, tradition.
There's a reason why the same sad stereotypes and negative perceptions and disparaging conceptions about African-Americans remain prevalent and persistent to this day...why they persist in perpetuating from one generation to the next, and it has nothing to do with the actions or attitudes of the people in question. Believe it or not, blacks don't own the copyright on criminal activity nor do they exemplify the essence of violence or decadence as so many so adamantly insist. Quite the contrary, humanity as a whole is guilty of those distinctions not just blacks. Every race every religion every culture and every community across the face of this Earth is all too familiar with war and hostility and delinquency and villainy, but the reason that African-Americans remain renowned as the poster children for such savage behavior is simply because it's traditionally accepted as fact whereas with every other people on the planet it's conveniently customarily downplayed or excused somehow or outright ignored altogether.
So ironic...so sad...
While the customs and traditions of the original enslaved Africans were wiped out altogether the customs and traditions imposed on them by their slavemasters remain resounding and resilient to this day.
Sigh.
Have your fun folks.
State your supposed facts and support them with your shallow observations.
Continue that proud tradition of solely casting people of color in the role of the sinister and reprehensible.
Perhaps your insistent efforts can keep these sick twisted perceptions going for another few hundred years.

Do you believe that all white people are racist? Can black people be racist? To you what does it mean to be racist?

If there you believe that this can't change then why bother talking about it?

How suddenly things change when Brown turns out not to be the angel painted by DCUM and media. Those were some serious 'supposed facts'. Even with video and positive ID, DCUMers were denying the truth about Brown. Hilarious to watch happen

Yes -- I realize it's unconnected to him being stopped and no I don't believe that the punishment for stealing $40 worth of cigars is being shot. It just demonstrates a thug like manner of living that I just can't be that sympathetic to -- I mean this isn't a case of the kid stealing food to feed his family but cigars --bc he thought it was his right to walk in there and take whatever he wanted.

This makes no sense. You are still saying he deserved to be shot. Just like Trayvon deserved to be shot because he smoked pot, right?

No I'm not saying he deserved to be shot. The punishment for stealing $40 of goods should not be capital punishment. BUT the fact that he did steal makes me less sympathetic to him. The cops saw him as a thug and shot him. Guess what -- he WAS a thug as evidenced by the fact that he had stolen 10 min prior. How are cops supposed to distinguish the good from the bad when so many black men are out there acting like thugs?? Maybe the cop didn't want to risk his life by giving this guy the benefit of the doubt that he was unarmed. Maybe the fact that he didn't listen to instructions and had cigars in his hand was enough for that cop not to want to take that chance. Over zealous policing but honestly given the thug like culture that the majority of AAs subscribe to, these kinds of "mistakes" are going to happen.

PP, yes it does. It's time to stop pointing the finger at White America as the sole source of the problem and accepting that the AA community has work to do. They DO need to change some of their attitudes and behavior. Bill Cosby (just one example) has been saying this publicly for years.

Also, no one on here has suggested that AAs are the only people on the planet associated with violence, or that everyone else's bad behavior is explained away. On this thread, for example, is a discussion of white serial killers. Who is excusing that? The news is full of uprisings in the Middle East. Who is excusing that?

And to your last point: Most white people living in America today are NOT descended from slaveowners. Most of us are descended from subsequent waves of immigration, some to escape persecution and starvation. These immigrants were dirt-poor and never owned slaves, so your suggestion that we whites are mired in some tradition of treating AAs a certain way from the olden days is ridiculous and insulting.

Reading comprehension is your friend.
Trying to excuse racism by saying there are black people doing wrong is asinine at best.
Yet, you turn around and say because not all white people are racist, you cannot paint all white people as racist.
You cannot have it both ways brainiac. If all black folk are responsible for the actions and the behavior of a few, then the some goes for white folk, Filipino folk, etc.
