No problem.
You 'reasoned' that Losty must be white because she said she'd never heard of the black guerilla family. Losty is indeed white. However, it's not necessarily the case that she was unfamiliar with this group merely because she is white, nor the fact of her being white precluding her from hearing of them; and indeed, the conversation indicates that this is so.
Thus, you were incorrect in your reasoning - which was in point of fact a huge non sequitur - you merely chanced to be accurate about the nature of Losty's racial heritage.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

See that's where you're wrong, I never explained my reasoning as too why I thought she was white, I'd also like too add that I'm a new member and I also didn't even know losty was a woman. Yet somehow I magically fucking knew.
There is a difference between being stupid and being ignorant blaming her ignorance on her race and culture is not wrong in fact it ended up being quite right.
Many white people in America dont know who the blood's and crips are. If losty asked me why she has never heard of the bloods before, then my first answer would be it's because your ignorant sheltered white person living a bubble. But that doesn't say she's stupid.

Well, like everyone else I can only go by what you choose to share here. Maybe if you had inquired into these things instead of 'reasoning' them based on zero information, you might have had a better reception. I was new here myself once; difference is, I took the trouble to get to know people instead of judging them.

Simplemoss, black americans aren't the center of the world in terms of races, not knowing about their culture doesn't make someone ignorant.
It's really self centered, arrogant and stupid of you to think that, but then again like I said you do have shit for brains.
I'd say it's more ignorant to not know the dictionary definition of a word you use quite often then to not know about a black prison gang.
I don't live around a lot of black people, I don't care what black people do to an extent, or about their latest culture trends or gangs. I don't care about any of the criminal gangs in my city center, I just laugh when I hear news stories of them being locked away for decades being put where they belong, or dying in fights. As unbelievable as they may sound to you, this does not make me racist or ignorant or make me a person living in a bubble, it's simply because black americans gangs aren't the mecca of civilization that everyone needs to pay attention to, despite what you believe.
You're probably ignorant to the Amarak tribe of Australia and what recent trends they have adapted, you probably don't know much about the Zakhchin tribes of Mongolia.
Thank god (figure of speech) the black people I have met in England aren't like you and some of the black americans I've seen making videos on youtube, asking for extra privileges, being condescending and having a massive chip on your shoulder.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

No, seriously, I've heard less racist diatribe from redneck hillbillies in West Virginia. Cool it with the stereotypical angry black man shit. You're making yourself out to look like a total ass-hat. You're making generalizations and assumptions and insults all over the fucking place. You're accusing everyone here of being racist but the only one bringing up race is you. Who's the real racist, then, I wonder? I haven't seen anyone call you a nigger. But you sure love slinging the word "cracker" around.
I grew up for roughly equal amounts of time in DC and in Detroit. I'm probably more "black" than you are. I probably know more "black" people than you do. And reading your diatribe is fucking obnoxious. You sound like those pampered little shitheads who grew up in Cranbrook, Birmingham, and Bloomfield Hills, or Arlington, Fairlington, and Alexandria, who had easy lives but their parents experienced racism growing up so they taught their little precious chilluns to be hateful, too, even though they have no reason to be. Maybe that's the case. Maybe it isn't. But that is exactly what you sound like to me.
Grow the fuck up, and more importantly, get over your fucking persecution complex, you fucking whack-ass little punk.

My neighborhood in Baton Rouge is overwhelmingly black (probably 90%). The many people I've met and got to know have never been anything but polite to me, and I have good reason to think they feel the same of me. I consider most of them to be nothing but good neighbors and a few as friends (a word I don't toss around lightly). I've never been called 'cracker' (at least not to my face), nor have I encountered any of the fake, unearned militancy simple_moss demonstrates here.
And I'll pre-emptively invite him or anyone else who wants to suggest that I'm pulling the "I have a black friend" dodge of some stereotypical closet racist to go into the nearest corner and fuck himself. Twice.

No, your reasoning was racist and factually incorrect.

I never heard of the BGF. I have fired a BFG in a video game, though. And I kinda look white, so maybe the colored folk didn't trust me enough with their secrets. Buncha racists.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

If someone says "black people need to stop doing (blank)" its prejudice but you wouldn't call it racist, if it was lets say a 90 year old black woman. But if you hear the same prejudice statement from 40 year old white Guy. You would assume the white guy was a Neo nazis or kkk racist
Why? Because black people would not argue for their own enslavement or for a society defined by race.
3rd time saying this and nobody has a counter argument other than screaming "your stupid and I hate u" like a bunch of spoiled whiny little children. Also still waiting for example of a black supremacist government. Would u like me to list all of the white ones???
White people don't learn anything about black people unless its in Newsweek. As Dave chappelle puts it.
WARNING the following video is about the differences between whites and blacks it might be too much for some of the overly sensitive white people in this thread too handle

Hey simplemoss if you think blacks can't be racist try being a white and going into a black nightclub, you'll get kicked out if you're unlucky
