re: Why are we still talking about racism?

Because if a race war gets started within the next 365 days then martial law can be imposed and there will be an attempt to not transfer presidential power.

Because the utopia the progressive socialist promise is a lie and has failed, so they need to blame whitey and everything else (statues etc)besides themselves. They hope to divide us and blind us from the true issues.

Because there's money to be made.

I think what a lot of people do not acknowledge is that it isn't racism, but classicism. The uneducated, the leeches, the people who clamor for more, while doing less. This occurs in every race. The people who perpetually use the system. Not the down-trodden, but the people who expect to be taken care of. Those who aren't embarrassed because they have fallen on hard times. Those who blame those times on everyone else, and have no desire to rise above.

First: For those of you tired of my threads, I am taking a hiatus from posting threads on OT.

For the question: The main reason racism is a hot topic is due to all the questionable incidents involving blacks. Most notably the police killing black young adults over "implied" dangerous circumstances.

Many people see these cases of police killings as being racist actions against blacks over any trivial crime. Although I harbor my own thoughts which are more neutral.

Personally, I feel that some instances of employment or education are also hindered with unintentional, yet powerful racism. I attended a PWI for undergrad and graduated, then decided to go to an HBCU to see if things would be different. At an HBCU, it seems that the education is simply more comprehensible by all races of people and student welfare is generally more valued.

Instances like my experience plus the news media has convinced many blacks that they are victims and face unfair odds in a world that supposedly "has a level playing field for all races".

2. In reference to the guy who says "every time a cop drives by, my blood pressure rises, and that's racism," isn't that a personal problem? WTF does that have to do with white privilege?

---

They are taught to mistrust cops from a young age. This is why so many of them run/resist arrest and bad things happen.

This is also why cops are more apprehensive of blacks than whites.

Because white community organizer freshmen senators who can't form sentences when the teleprompter breaks, and who use lame, condescending and recycled campaign slogans - get elected president all the time.

With blacks, it's only happened once. When will their suffering ever end?

So a whole race of people are responsible for the accomplishments of an individual in that race?

Because some people have no concept of hypocrisy. They whine about generalizations and stereotypes, but they are more guilty of doing it than anyone.

So then a whole race of people are responsible for the dysfunction of an individual in that race?

No, this apparently only applies to white people. We are all guilty because of slavery, but crimes committed by blacks are done by individuals.

And people like Ben Carson, Bryant Gumble, etc. are accused of not being real black people. Those who say that clearly think all black people should act the same. I would love for them to travel to Africa and try peddling that bullshite.

Again, the hypocrisy and double standards are truly mind-boggling.

but crimes committed by blacks are done by individuals.

35%+ of all major crimes are committed by black individuals. These individuals come from a race that only makes up 13% of the population.

White people seem to realize this without even looking up these numbers. These individuals are giving the black people a bad name.

This will continue to be an unaddressed issue as long as the PC police does not allow profiling. Anybody want to guess when that will be??
