How many people do you truly know are "racists"?
And by that, I mean the definition of racist where they hate all people of a certain race.
I'm white and I really don't know one person who hates all blacks. They may hate the "ni**ers", but they also have many blacks they work with or are friends with that they truly care for. I guess I could count myself amongst them if I'm being honest.
I can't speak for blacks, but I hope the same is true in their communities. I imagine they hate the trashy arse whites who hate blacks, but know many good white people and don't judge all whites by the few bad ones.
It's a damn shame what's happening to our country, and we need to come together to find a solution.

Bigot is the word that needs to be thrown around more than racist.

I cannot even assume that the average person understands the real definition of racism.

I thought this just after Dallas. To be fair, there are rouge cops and there are mass shooters. In this day if instant mass media and cell phone cameras the fringe get the attention.

It's really not. That's just want the news wants us to believe. Is some bad crap happening yes. But... Tearing the nation apart no.

There is no need to spread the blame around. The events that are destroying America from within are squarely on the progressives. And since progressive and Democrat have recently become completely interchangeable, let's just play it as it lays. The Dems are tearing this country down, one SJW "outrage" at a time. It's what they do, destroy shite.

I think most reasonable thinking people realize the actions of a few doesn't represent everyone that person is affiliated with.
There are people of all races who have different views on this. Look at the protesters last week, there were a lot of white people protesting for BLM. You listen to what Kevin Gates has to say about this.. He is a black dude saying "frick BLM", but are so quick to not rationalize things and paint everything with a broad brush.

Given that, the rhetoric on both sides is making things worse.

Iam black and think the BLM movement is a sham created by some non blacks in high places to disrupt and divide society.
People will perish not from a lack of food but from a lack of knowledge. We need a philosophical and spiritual change

Sorry man but get your fricking head out of the sand. Just about everyone has a little bit of racism. Some don't act on it or talk about it in public because we're supposed to be past it. It's there, eeeeverywhere. I've noticed even the most strait laced, educated black ppl are separating themselves from white coworkers. I've heard the N word come out of white men's mouths that I never thought I'd hear. Blacks can't seem to organize and live in peace. I fear that Whitey will soon have enough of this shite. It's just getting started.

I worked with a few black guys in 2008 when Barry was running for his first term. We occasionally talked politics (mostly they did), and they found out I wasn't voting for their candidate. Immediately I was labeled a racist. Had nothing to do with the fact that I always vote conservative and he was a flaming liberal. Automatically it was a white/black issue.

Even blacks have light skinned vs dark skinned battles
