Atheists, George Zimmerman and the burden of proof

He used the term "race-baiting" and you first made the generalization that the only people that use the term "race-baiting" are racist. And then made the inference using bad evidence that La Ban might be racist for using the term.

That's an interesting interpretation of what I actually said:

Now, you can incorrectly ascertain from what I just said that I'm implying that you're a racist. Given your other positions, I can't believe that's true, but you open yourself up to misunderstanding when you use a term racists frequently use to attack those who expose them as racists.

Quote:Then you again make a false assumption that "thug"="black" and use it to further confirm your belief.


It's not an assumption. It's a culmination of viewpoints he previously stated, among which:

it is true that young black men are the most criminally minded combination of sex,skin colour and age in the USA

In all this talk about blanket generalizations, this one stands out because of the obvious implication that black males are 'criminally-minded'. It ignores the reality of social and economic factors which are the catalyst for criminal behavior. It's a page right out of the white racist handbook. Lock your doors, there are criminally-minded young black males around.

Quote:Your entire foundation for believing that La Ban is a racist is shaky at best, and indicative of someone that is hyper sensitive to topics of race.

You should actually read the thread before you respond to it.
