Looking through this i will share my two cents if you look at it black and white crime sure
black crime is disproportionate since the population in the US that is African American is only 14% white being
the majority no shit. Then here is the glaring facts of it all in the US you are more likely to be thrown into
jail for marijuana possession if you are black than white (you can thank the obvious unethical drug war for that).
Im going to list all this but a good bit can be found here http://www.huffingtonpost.com/kim-farbot...78586.html

So the US has a problem of racism and its a problem that is glaring us in the face yet no one does anything about it.
Education is one of the key things not religion is going to fix this problem we have. Then the other thing would be getting rid
of the obvious drug war going on.

To go back on topic here..... it is hypocritical... to get upset that a white person kills a black person. You know what i get it though but
at the same point... there is more black on black murders than white on black murders... so getting upset and rioting doesn't fix the problem
of black on black murder. Then the next thing... would be stop with the violence... stop with the protests it doesn't help it only confirms a
negative stereotype this is why education really matters it is better for the development of ones self and the people around them.

Of  course it does, with the Chinese, Korean, Indian, Native American and Vietnamien all being victimised and being put into the same bracket since they are considered "races", just like the black and white population. Now, I have seen the list of ethnicities incarcerated in the US penal system and they have 4 categories, Hispanic, white, black, and all. Have you ever asked yourself the question as to why the aforementioned races are NOT represented in the statistics? If you remain discrete and you don't look for trouble, you don't give the authorities shit, then maybe, just maybe the authorities might just give you a break. Here in France, a gendarme or police officer can pull you over whilst driving or walking and you have to show your passport or identity card. Suffice to say, I have never been pulled over simply because I rest discrete and try not to bring attention to myself on the streets.

You're just clutching at silly irrelevant arguments now because I worded things differently from post to post, shame on me for not plagiarizing my own post word-for-word. Pettiness

Of course it matters. You are shifting the goalposts to suit your own argument when you are trying to say he is of mixed-race. However, in all sources, just as belle noted, he is classed as Hispanic and lived in an Hispanic area of the United States, therefore he isn't black by any stretch of the imagination. #Hispanicchinesekoreannativeamericanvietnamienlivesdonotmatterifyouareshotbyawhitecop.#

Making fun of the poor people with little to no education is a dick move. They did not chose to be born into poverty, nor to be denied a proper education. Offer your poor fellow a helping hand, instead of a smirk. You ass.

I take it you are an atheist then? If so, it makes me laugh to see someone like you quoting someone who tortured people for owning a bible in English and not in Latin.

A religious scolar stated that Thomas More:

Quote:…the heretic hunter of the mid-1520s, who personally broke into Lutherans’ homes and sent men to the stake, … [and who] would punish religious dissent not only with “displeasant” words but with state violence.

Nothing makes people bigger fucktards than thinking that god is on their side.

Just to the Christians, Jewish and Muslims that their made-up Marvel comics were inspirated by the Rig Veda and so, they are merely copies.

Does it make what he said less accurate? 
Argumentum ad Hominem
Please don't throw fallacies at me.  Show me something wrong with the quote itself, if you don't like it.

Ok, I think black people have had it bad for a long time in America and also in a lot of other Western countries.
The evidence for that is overwhelming.
I don't think anyone should ever get away with committing a crime, but I think when it happens on a large scale the powers that be need to take a good look at the system and see if issues like poverty, discrimination or police brutality is the cause.

RobertE, Paulpablo, A theist and Belle Morte - may I ask what your stance is on that?
I don't understand your point of views on this subject.
Are you trying to create an equally opposite point of view to nullify their claims?
Where does the bitterness come from?

Personally, I've never been on a site where there were so many, seemingly, racist comments.
It makes me very uncomfortable and if there were ten more people reacting this way I would leave altogether.

Or perhaps this was his poorly educated way of addressing income inequality? Maybe he has a low IQ and that was the best way he could articulate his belief that rich people should recognize their blessings and be more charitable to the poor? Perhaps he is highly medicated for mental illness and was simply struggling to express his thoughts properly? Maybe he was nervous that he was on television and misspoke?

Nope. Must be because he's lazy and unemployed.

Yup. You're probably right. He's too lazy to apply himself to get his GED and to get a job. He'd rather not sacrifice his free time for a job.

Which comments seemed racist? Anything in particular I said?
