quote:I've been a victim of crime...the problem is, there isn't a free marketplace of ideas
oeople like you will only start to care when it gets shoved in your face
it's not apathy, I would love to give my ideas...however, what I just posted earlier...is immediately rejected and rebuked as racist...so there's a huge wall up...I used to get so pissed off because I didn't know if it was my phrasing of things, my different thought processes (I have aspergers and this is a source of frustration for people with it, communicating effectively...or differently)but in the end, no one wants to hear it, and I would get so pissed at that girl because she was in one of the few places in NOLA that was white as the driven snow, and she didn't know any black people, she'd never lived with black people, etc...
the apathy is a two way street however, because let's be honest...they're only marching because Wilson isn't black.
it's tough, I think it's a shame, I think it's a construct that can be torn down, but there's that oh so magic barrier up..."racism" and everything shuts down when it is said
years and years before I was beaten into apathy. And I'm happier for it...apathy from the garden district crowd and apathy from the black community...over the same thing...neither of them care about blacks killing blacks
the two diverge when it comes to white people killing black people though, as you see in ferguson
I'm not apathetic, I've submitted...best anyone can do is hope for personal responsibility, more government isn't the answer, it will only exacerbate the problem, more finger pointing from the black community won't do anything
and eliminating ideas from the market place is the WORST thing, and it is because jobs are lost, lives are ruined when that word drops
"racism"
