One black guy not getting shot doesn't disprove systemic racism and you'd have to have an IQ of like 70 to think that.

Nor does three black guys getting shot prove it. Obviously you have the intelligence of a brain-dead clam.

Gee, personal attacks are fun!
 
Re: Riots and Racists and Looting...OH MY!!!

Yes, three black guys getting shot is our entire argument and the only evidence that would support such a claim.

So what the hell is your argument? You've built the entire thing tonight around these four specific cases.
 
Re: Riots and Racists and Looting...OH MY!!!

No I/we haven't, there have been plenty of cases throughout history during the 60's onto Rodney King and these 4 are just recent ones that (imo) support the assertion. A better question would be, how many cases do there need to be where race could be a factor (even a small factor) before you question whether there's a systemic issue involving race?
 
Re: Riots and Racists and Looting...OH MY!!!

I can't resist :D :

Eddie: There are three things that black people need to tell the truth about. Number one: Rodney King should've gotten his *** beat for being drunk in a Honda a white part of Los Angeles. Number two: O.J. did it! And number three: Rosa Parks didn't do nuthin' but sit her black *** down!

Man, with all the systemic racism going on in this country, we'll probably NEVER have a black President!

I have one, I'm just waiting to get to a computer to type it out. I think it's something most, if not all, here could agree to.

Honestly, I'm not going to rule out racial bias in the Rice case. I also think Bundy and friends got really lucky.

So, if I can get this straight... according to Priceless, Jimmy, Trixie and co...


It's okay to assume racism in an individual cop's actions (and then apply that to ALL cops) because you feel like he is (must be) a racist because it sure looks like he's racist because racism exists and in the past there have been racists who have done racist things, so this guy must be a racist and racism must have directed his actions - even though you have zero proof that he's a racist. Your assumptions about him (and all cops) are good enough.

Do I have that right?
