Editz or whatever your name is, fuck off.

My red: Utter fiction. I might just as well accuse you of being a "cunt hair" away from admitting your undying loyalty to Adolf Hitler. Also, your projected/false consensus effect white middle class monoculture ignorance/fear of the unknown/racism is showing (why would black atheists feel unwelcome here exactly etc), you might want to tuck it back in.  Hehe

I've said it before and I'll say it again: The only people who think the killing of George Floyd was racist are racists.

RE: About BLM
You can tell it's not racist because there's five times as many videos of white guys being 'knelt to death' while people watching beg them to stop and that's about right given the population statistics.

RE: About BLM
je ne comprends pas...detecting parody/sarcasm though so I'll repeat: Abt 40% of deaths in police custody are of blacks, and blacks make up around 40% of the prison population (ie blacks make up abt 40% of criminals). Well done police! Colourblind!

Blacks and whites use illegal drugs at the same rate, but 50% of inmates for drug use/possession are black. Badly done, police and criminal justice system in general.

RE: About BLM
Self reported level of illegal drug use is not a reliable measure, to say the least. Also this thread is about BLM which is born of, named and focused on black deaths at the hands of police.

Also - picture the scene - black drug dealer (40% of criminals, remember) hanging out with his 3 black buddies getting high when suddenly: BANG! (front door goes down) "Police, don't move!" All his mates go to jail for possession.

RE: About BLM
As with homophobia and repressed homosexuality, those who jump headlong onto the shouty "we hate racism/gayness!" bandwagon, especially when the evidence of racism is totally missing, are frequently the true racists/gays themselves, repressed, in denial, but the correlation is there. The lady doth protest too much methinks.

Good work Lawz! Quite the theory! Homophobia has a lot in common with BLM! BOOOOOOOOOM!

Utter fiction my ass. You can't stand the idea that people actually object to racism so much that you deny racism is even a problem in the United States. You don't even live here. You wouldn't know.

People who are too fucking weak to come right out and say they don't give a shit about black people say, "But, what about white people?" instead. Instead of saying they think black people are criminals, they say, "But, what about black on black crime?" with no understanding of what the statistics they cite mean in the bigger picture. Grow a pair and just say you don't give a shit if black people in America are victims of racism.

The world would be such a different place if stupid people knew they were stupid.
