What is it you'd like to discuss because apparently, "systemic racism" isn't that thing.

OK. This implies you do know something about it. Would you mind telling me what you do know about systemic racism?

Cubbies has been gone a while but this is how she works in every there.

This think will get to page 30 and at no point will she EVER take a position on anything.

But, she'll imply all your positions are wrong...……..but...…...not that she holds one herself...……...but you're wrong...……...but she didn't say that...……..but you're wrong

You get the point

Why is that you think you hurt my feelings? I don’t have any.

I have an opinion of you but no feelings for you.

Racism still exist...
We have white people who hate blacks/browns
We have black people who hate whites/browns
We have brown people who hate whites/blacks

Racism is not as big as the media and certain people Make it seem. You grow up in a poor area you are more likely to be afraid of the cops because you see me, you grow up rich well you feel safe because your interactions are better. We live in the South and everyone on this board comes in contact with people of different colors every single day. People we see racism is not a constant thing unless you are looking for it and now you have parents teaching it and teaching fear of cops and others. Many were brought up with the mantra, treat others the way you want to be treated, and that is no longer the case.

Sad that bad cops ruin it for the others, just like bad teachers leave a generalization of all teachers, bad lawyers, etc.. every profession has those bad apples that ruin it for the rest.

Cam Jordan and Russell Wilson talking about their kids could be the next Floyd, they have a better chance of being the next Wayde Sims or Will Smith. Killed by people of their own race over nothing more than stupidity. When BLM starts marching for these people and to end all violence, not just white on black violence, not just media influenced violence then maybe more conservatives would take their motto seriously. Senseless violence needs to end, the disrespect of life needs to end.

Scroll though the thread. I’ve discussed some examples of policies that were put in place that were detrimental to blacks. I don’t think I know everything and I’m open to considering other perspectives. I’m getting lots of emotionally charged responses that add nothing to the discussion and I’m losing interest. I’m not trying to win an argument nor am I on trial here.

Heres a problem...a lot of these jobs he did early on: carpet cleaning, ditch digging and construction are now the domain of illegals. For a young black man who cant read or maybe has had a criminal record, he cant get these jobs like he used to in order to get things going. The road out of poverty isnt always college. Some kids arent smart or academically inclined enough to do that.

Ill never take people like 4cubbies seriously because they refuse to reconsider their stances on welfare and illegal immigration as a means to improve the black community.


This argument is not made enough, and it's conservatives' fault. We should have Biden, Pelosi and CNN on the defensive so much that they don't have time to incite riots.

Illegal immigration is right up there with LBJ's war on poverty and Biden's 1994 Crime Bill as responsible for black plight. The economic realities of 20 million illegals on the economic prospects of low skilled/under-educated blacks (and whites) is enormous.

It amazes me to this day that blacks vote for Democrats. They commit political and economic suicide every election.

Nope. You don’t even know what racism means apparently.

George Floyd with his arrest record was a free man when he died. He should have been in jail. He was a danger to society.

Any other systems?

And then, you ignored all responses to them.

Hell, one of the policies you listed is a policy that white people get called a racist over if they oppose it.

You can't fricking claim a policy is part of systemic racism if trying to repeal it is called racism.

I mean, you can I suppose. But it's retarded.

So you think there entire criminal justice is NOT racist because a black man who was ultimately killed by police while in police custody was not in jail?
