[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Come on. you know white people control the levers of power in this country, even if black ppl hold local office. NRA money, baby, that's where it all comes from, and no white republican is going to stand up to the NRA[/quote]

Bullish!t.  Take responsibility for the violence and crime in your own neighborhoods and stop pretending it’s everyone’s fault but your own.[/quote]

This is racist thinking. All black people are responsible for anything done by any other black person? How do you know what neighborhood that poster lives in? Not all back people live in crime-filled neighborhoods.

So is expecting whites to feel guilty for it[/quote]

Exactly.  And ftr, I don’t feel guilty about it.  Nor would I expect anyone else to feel guilty about problems in [b]my community[/b] that have nothing to do with them.[/quote]

What happened to "OUR COMMUNITY"? Black people, white people, Hispanic people, Asian people - we are all Americans together. What happens in Chicago or rural West Virginia matters to me, because it's OUR country. That's OUR community. When someone bleeds in Chicago or West Virginia, we feel pain across the country.

This is one of the biggest issues today: atomization of the American populace. Something happening on Fox News in Chicago doesn't resonate with most viewers because they don't see it as part of "their" existence. That is what is truly sad - people only view life thru the lens of their own curated bubble.[/quote]
