we also learn that black people, men especially, need to "get over it" and stop making everything about race.
finally, the real racism that exists in this country is in reverse where blacks "hate" whites because its impossible in this day and time for a white person to be racist since 1963-1964.
and thankfully some of these white people have correctly pointed out the error of black people's ways by making their point in finding as many photos of black teenagers in baggy jeans, hats, and gold fronts to show us thats its natural to be afraid of said people. its up to blacks to get their act together so we dont scare them.
Why do you see this as only a black and white issue?
from the comments ive read, you wouldnt be interested in my answer and would think im just making stuff up because i like wasting my life doing such things.
i am fine entertaining this entire episode completely ignoring race because it seems to cloud some people's judgement. i think a reasonable person can see an injustice in this case without bringing up race but i havent seen or read too much where a successful discussion has occurred without race coming up at all. not sure if that says something about how much race really plays part in this or how bad the people discussing the issue want to bring up the racial component of the case.
