Oh, you silly bitch.

How many black neighborhoods in New Orleans would you feel safe living in?

So you justify your comments about Blacks as a whole by referencing the scum at the bottom of God's shoe that is represented in New Orleans? I can't name any neighborhood in NO I'd want to live.

No more racist than the NAACP or buying from a business because the owner is black.

I never really thought of it that way because I’m not a racist

What is readily observable is that homes in areas with a certain demographic are worth less, and that same demographic commits much more violent crime relative to their percentage of the population.

It's not my responsibility to look at a single person and predict whether that person will commit crimes. What is my responsibility is making safe and wise choices in where I live and what type of people I interact with, even if that does make me "racist".

It’s always the same. White racists justify their racism by pointing out that there are black racists too. So in the worm eaten mind of the racist, all racism is good because there are other racists out there.

No one is suggesting that white racists are the Only racists in the world. The point is that racism is a useless and socially harmful thing.

Unless his kid starts pulling door handles in the early morning. No, I'm not saying that is going to happen but it did happen in my neighborhood last year. His parents are great people, his friends are not.

I have white kids in my neighborhood who constantly ring my gate bell and run away. I've been researching copper pellets.

very good book that touches on this subject


racism definition:
The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
Discrimination or prejudice based on race.
The belief that each race has distinct and intrinsic attributes.

Bias definition:
A preference or an inclination, especially one that inhibits impartial judgment.
An unfair act or policy stemming from prejudice.

so is wanting to be around people like you that you are comfortable with racism or bias? or can it be both?

His point was it's smart to avoid people who openly hate you. If a white person avoids black people because there's a decent chance your race will be a problem for them, it's backwards to place the racism moniker on the white person in the scenario.

His statement was intentionally extreme, but the concept is ultimately common sense that most people agree with.

I used to hate Scott Adams.

Until he made a totally true and coherent statement about race relations in America.
