R, you could just say - you know what, we've come a long way, but I acknowledge this type of shite happens more to black people in America than it does to white males like me, so I will do my part to be empathetic and contribute to the constant evolution of America as a better place. Do you have that in you?



Ok. But you have to acknowledge that black people in America commit an appallingly disproportionate amount of violent crime, are disproportionately on the public dole, and don’t generally do a good job of maintaining their neighborhoods or not abusing handicapped parking. And maybe by acknowledging these facts and helping your fellow man acknowledge these facts, you can contribute to making America a better place.

and that, boys and girls, is how to properly respond to a SJW.

By hurling insults? That doesn’t do anything.

Well you can’t reason with a true SJW, either. There was a recent article blaming racism for the STD rate amongst minorities in California. There’s just no getting through.

Scrub's not really a SJW. He seems like a very smart guy and provides some useful insight on some other boards. He does tend to have more than his fair share of white guilt, with which I do not personally agree, but he seemed to have been making some valid points in this thread (if only as food for thought).

telling him that he “didn’t belong [there]” and was making her “uncomfortable.”


So should he be banned for making a woman uncomfortable or does she need to check her white privilege?

Conservatives fail to acknowledge that this does happen more to black people than white people. Although, I think the gap is grossly exaggerated by the media, and that causes part of the conservative backlash whenever this comes up.

Liberals fail to acknowledge that this kind of stuff, while annoying, isn't an excuse not to make it in life and honestly doesn't explain any of the racial gaps that persist today.

Liberals also fail to acknowledge that it most likely their own kind that are the fastest to get the police involved where they're not needed. Conservatives are better taught to handle things themselves and keep the government out of it unless it's really needed.

So the cops showed up, were polite, made sure she was allowed to be there after a complaint of a suspicious person, and then apologized and left?

Shouldn't this be praised as cops doing a good job? Why is there a negative spin here?

Getting an expensive Masters in your mid 30s in a highly non lucrative field sounds like a great idea.


I’d bet my dick that this person isn’t paying for one cent of that. Tuition, room and board, books, food...nothing.

Yep. I appreciate more than I can put in words the bullshite that cops have to put up with for the general welfare of every day citizens. That being said, I don’t want them anywhere near me or involved in my life in any way.

This whole thing was set up. I hope the thread has come to that obvious conclusion.
