For a lot of other people though, the reality is that their schools were shipped re-prints of books that were out of date decades ago. They get spied on when they go into convenience stores, are met with friction as soon as they go some places literally immediately. They've seen the dramatic difference in policing in one urban neighborhood vs. a suburban neighborhood and even in the local courts from one to another. I'm one of these people, and there's no concievable way that you sitting in the big house that your rich parents bought and tucked you into bed at night in could could possibly convince me that some members of my local community, police, and government are not racist. Not all, but a lot. Most of em subtely and they don't even realize that they're racist - kinda like you. You'll never in your life experience a single effect of racism, so you couldn't possibly begin to say anything about the state of racism ANYWHERE. "Racism" is something you think you see on TV and you hear about it, but you'll never in your life meet it or suffer from it like a minority would. What's racism to you, black kids cracking on you at a basketball court? racism for me was getting jumped by dudes who I've never seen or met a day in my life till they hopped out of an explorer 5 deep with bats beating the shit out of me while calling me a nigger. That ever happen to you? Nope. And it never will. I only wish that were all "racism" meant to me.
What's funny is your comment about "maybe 2%" of your school is from "the hood". That's funny because the black population in your state (Arizona) currently numbers at 2%. So tell me again exactly what the hell you know about racism? When you face it a few thousand times in your life, you learn to see it a mile away.
BTW, I explained the financial implications of how and why AIDS is used as a cog in a killing machine and showed facts to back it. Your counterargument in the face of all these facts is "black people always think the government is picking on them". What a surprise  |
Man, you know nothing about me or my parents. RIGHT NOW yeah, my dad's come up to be one of the top attorneys in his area of law in this state. You make it sound as if it's something I should be ashamed about. Do you think I WANT to experience any of that shit? Do YOU want to experience it? Hell no. But, dude, I do know that the world is unfair. Did you see my thread about illegal immigrants. I know you saw it because you posted in it. Did I give the impression that I was happy about the state setting up people to fail? Did I give the impression that I thought everything was cool with it? I know that's only one example, but it's recent, so whatever. And yeah, I do know that parts of the judicial system are racist. It probably won't start improving for a few more generations. I'm aware of that. What do you expect me to do about it though? Right a letter to Congress and tell them to shut the fuck up and be more equal? I don't really think so.
Also, I said about 2% of my school was from the "hood." I never said they were black. You made that assumption. And, there's probably more but I rounded down to an extreme to openly show that I don't live in the ghetto and stuff. But, I never said black people. I said people from the "hood." Why do you just presume that because I said "hood" it's automatically associated with black people? I know I never said that.
But, I don't understand why race is being played as an issue now. In your first post you said poor people. In my post I said poor people. So, because you pulled the race card, are you now saying that the government is trying to kill off black people? I may not be the knowledgeable person about the AIDs virus, but I can pretty much guarantee that white guys and women have it too.
You may not give a shit about the government because some of the people are racist, but do you really think they would kill off MILLIONS of people, white, black, asian, mexican, fucking norweign.. all to try and sweep the black people off the Earth? I can't say that I buy that.
